Chapter 174: The Battle of the Plains

In the palace of the Ming Imperial City, a row of young and beautiful girls stood in front of Princess Ming Yao.

They are not only good-looking, but also noble and elegant. Because they were not ordinary harem maids, they were all daughters of high-ranking officials and nobles in the imperial city, and they were between fourteen and twenty years old.

They were radiant, with expectant and shy eyes in their eyes. Because today may be the most important day in their lives, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess wants to choose a personal maid for His Majesty Emperor Ming, if nothing else, the person who is chosen today is likely to be the future queen.

How can they not be excited, although I heard that His Majesty was a little naïve, but what was wrong with this, it was better than the stern and murderous Your Majesty. Their fathers have told them that they must behave well, and the glory of their ancestors is today.

Princess Ming Yao walked back and forth in front of them once, nodded, and was quite satisfied with their appearance and demeanor. Next, she asked them questions one by one, and Princess Ming Yao screened the wise people through their answers and attitudes in answering them.

The questions are all very simple, nothing more than a question of some hobbies, how much to read and personality. After Princess Ming Yao asked twice, she already had a candidate in mind. In the end, she chose a somewhat natural girl, only fourteen years old, about the same age as Wise. The other girls were not selected and had to leave disappointed.

Princess Ming Yao chose such a girl with her own plans, because this girl doesn't seem to have any scheming, and she won't interfere in the government in the future, but at least she won't bully Mingzhi.

The girl's name is Fang'er, and she is the daughter of a civil official in the imperial city. Princess Mingyao led the girl to Mingzhi and said, "Zhi'er, you will play with this sister in the future, don't bully her." ”

Seeing such a beautiful and lovely girl, Wise immediately clapped his hands: "It's so good, it's so good, finally someone is playing with me!"

Fang'er stepped forward to salute: "Fang'er see Your Majesty!"

Zhizhi immediately took her hand and said as he ran, "Let's go, I'll take you to the back garden to play!"

Ming Yao watched them run away happily, didn't stop them, just sighed in her heart, could it be that she just found a playmate for Mingming?

At this time, a fierce war on the frontier of the Heart Ambition Empire had been going on for several days and nights. Xinlu was careful and laid out a seamless offensive strategy.

His troops divided into two routes, all the way around the rear of the Long Army, to intercept the retreat of the Long Army. Attacking from the front all the way, in order to prevent the Dragon Fist from being ambushed, Xinlu also prepared a large number of large movable trebuchets, which were no less powerful than the two Magisters.

However, Xinlu's attack did not go as smoothly as he thought, first of all, the army that he went to intercept the retreat of the Long Family's army was besieged by the Dragon Fist Division. Secondly, his trebuchet unit had a much shorter range than the powerful crossbow modified by the Dragon Fist, and it still didn't work in the end.

However, Xinlu's trebuchet destroyed part of the Dragon Fist's mechanism ambush, so he immediately made a decision and ordered a strong attack.

In the face of Xinlu's fierce attack, Dragon Fist could only face it, because the retreat route had become a battlefield, and the final result of the retreat was also a melee.

But Xinlu's army should not be underestimated, after a fierce battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties, Longquan and Xinlu could not support it in the end, and the two armies retreated separately.

And the rear battlefield could not distinguish the winner or loser, but with the reinforcement of the retreating army of the Dragon Fist, the Xinye army was shattered.

Dragon Fist could have taken this opportunity to retreat to the Hanging Sound Pass, but with this leg back, the opportunity to attack the interior of the Heart Ambition Empire was gone. There will be a stalemate with the Heart Empire that will end in an unknown when. Moreover, the scattered Heart Wild Army still attacked from time to time, and the Dragon Fist's retreat at this time seemed extremely cowardly. So he concentrated his forces to counterattack, and just when he was clearing the remnants of the Xinye Army, Xinlu led the army to kill again.

Dragon Fist is on the frontier of the Xinye Empire, and has fought more than ten battles with the Xinlu army. The two sides won and lost each other, but despite this, Dragon Fist did not think of returning to the suspension level.

And Xinlu was also addicted to this battle, he had not encountered such stubborn resistance for a long time. But this time he made up his mind, this was his last battle on the frontier, and he was sure to defeat the Long family's army!

In a plain area, the two armies fought again, and Xinlu rode a war horse like a god of war and stood in front of the Xinye army. Of course, he also saw that the Dragon Fist did not lose its aura at all, standing proudly in front of the Ming Dragon Army.

Xinlu suddenly laughed at this time: "Hahahaha! The Long Family Army is really still the strongest army in the Minglong Empire, and its combat effectiveness is no worse than when Longshan Longkun was in command, I haven't fought such a tragic battle for a long time." Dragon Fist, Long Ming, you two brothers are indeed rare rivals in my Xinlu's life. However, today is the final battle, and I have brought all my forces with me. Today, in this battle on the plains, either you die or I die, what else do you have to say!"

Long Fist smiled: "Thank you for the old prince, but Brother Ming and I can't compare with my father Shuai and my uncle, if they were still alive, they would have killed you a long time ago!"

"Hmph!" Xinlu's face turned cold, and he said, "It's not that I haven't fought with your father and uncle, I can beat them back then, and I can defeat you today!"

Long Ming stepped forward at this time and said: "Since the old prince has decided that today is a battle of life and death, if you retreat if you are defeated, and you can't decide whether you live or die, then you are a coward!"

"What!" Xin Lu said angrily: "Huangkou Xiao'er dares to speak wildly! Okay! Today we will fight the victory and defeat and decide to the death! I see who retreats first is a coward!"

Then Xinlu gave an order, and the Xinye Army rushed over, and the Dragon Fist also waved forward, and the Long Family Army rushed forward.

Watching the soldiers fight hard, Long Fist leaned towards Long Ming and said, "Brother Ming, you say this, wouldn't it be a shame if our soldiers were defeated and retreated, and we failed to decide whether we were dead or dead?"

"Brother Fist, we try our best to contain Xinlu, if the ground forces can win and Xinlu doesn't retreat, we have a chance to kill him!" Long Ming said.

"If you want to defeat the Xinye Army, you must get rid of Xinlu, but it will not be easy for our ground troops to win. Dragon Fist said.

"If we can't fight, we will retreat, you really don't care if he doesn't have any face in the war, and winning is the king. Long Ming said.

"Haha, Brother Ming, you're still cunning. "Dragon Boxing.

After the ground troops rushed for a while, Xinlu also led the Sky Warriors over.

Although Long Ming said that he didn't care about face in the war, Long Fist attached great importance to it, since he just boasted that Haikou was going to defeat the Xinye Army, he must do his best to fight, otherwise it will only make the morale of his army worse and worse.

After making up his mind, Dragon Fist led his Sky Warriors to the sky to meet the Xinlu army.
