Chapter 436: The Sailor Moves, and the Enemies Meet
In front of Meiling Pass, the mountain peak is steep, and the Dan cliff is precipitous, as high as 100 meters.
Li Xuan wore a black fish-scale battle armor, pressed the eight-sided Han sword in his hand, and walked slowly on the city wall, his eyes calm.
I don't know what I thought, Li Xuan suddenly stopped, looked sideways at Li Zhu, and said with sharp eyes: "Let our people, immediately keep an eye on all the movements inside and outside the Sanhe Pass, and at the same time go north to check all the movements of the Muzhou Navy, this king wants to know where they are now, and how fast they are marching every day?" ”
Li Zhu didn't say a word, arched his hand, nodded, and then turned around to make arrangements.
Li Xuan turned around and looked at the camp at the end of his line of sight in the distance, if he wanted to win the battle in front of him, the only thing he could use was the internal turmoil of the Tianyin Sect.
Now, the Tianyin Sect has started an incident in the name of Muzhou Assassin Shi Xu, but Shi Shu is obviously a puppet, and it is even very likely that something has happened.
The children of the family of military generals, at critical moments, do not lack the courage to commit suicide.
"Yuan Chao, you must be a little stronger." Li Xuan was quickly calculating in his heart.
Muzhou soldier Cao joined the army Yuan Chao, a native of Taizhou, was earlier recommended by Shi Xu as the inspection school Muzhou Sima.
However, before the approval of the imperial court came down, he was already a servant under the command of the rebellious governor Wu Yue.
This is a very ambitious guy, according to intelligence, Yuan Chao has already followed the Muzhou Navy to the south.
If you want to break this water army, how to provoke Yuan Chao and the Tianyin Sect to fight among them is the key to breaking the game.
"Squeak, squeak!" A burst of noise sounded behind Li Xuan, and he subconsciously turned around.
Suddenly, I saw two huge and tall wells suddenly appear behind the city wall, and were pushed to a position five meters away from the city wall.
Zhou Shen and Yan Tao hurriedly walked up from the city gate, and while looking at the well in front of them, they arched their hands to Li Xuan: "Your Majesty, the people below said that the king asked the king to place these two wells here?!" ”
"It's the king's arrangement!" Li Xuan nodded, calm and indifferent.
Zhou Shen looked up at Li Xuan, and said with some uncertainty: "Your Majesty, if there are really extra archers, they can be placed on the city wall, why not arrange for the well behind them." ”
"Just watch for the unexpected." Li Xuan waved his hand and said: "This king has never dealt with Fang Fengjin, and I don't know what his temperament is, I don't know what his offensive methods are, so he is always a little uneasy, so he made a little preparation. In addition, there are other means. ”
Li Xuan said, beckoned Qi Guang to carry a basket of lime directly onto the city gate, and then looked at Zhou Shen and Yan Tao: "If it's not right, throw these limes directly." ”
Throwing lime in a fight has never been a bright means.
But this is a battlefield, and as long as you can win, no one will say much.
"Alright, let's continue patrolling, this king has other arrangements to make." After Li Xuan finished speaking, he nodded, then turned around and walked towards the city wall.
Looking at the back of Li Xuan leaving, Zhou Shen and Yan Tao glanced at each other, and their faces became solemn at the same time.
"The prince doesn't seem to be optimistic about the enemy this time." Zhou Shen couldn't help but say it.
Yan Tao nodded and said, "The royal lord used the grandiose methods before, but now, it seems to be a bit desperate. ”
"I'll do my best." After Zhou Shen finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the city gate.
This time, his face was completely solemn.
"It's nothing more than a horse leather shroud, what's there." Yan Tao followed closely and followed.
……
"These two wells are placed right here." Li Xuan commanded his subordinates and placed the two wells five meters in front of the gate of the urn city.
From this place, it is completely possible to cover the entire urn city.
But behind it is the city wall, and the city wall of the urn city can completely kill all the enemies who enter the urn city, and there is no need for these wells at all.
No one knew what Li Xuan thought, so he got all the wells in the entire city out at once and arranged them in various places in the city.
The people above the well are not masters, most of them are selected from the Wuzhou soldiers, and the soldiers who can accurately use crossbows and bows.
Even on many wells, they are empty.
No one knew what Li Xuan was thinking, and no one dared to ask casually, in fact, everyone didn't have time to ask.
"Take the catapults here, push them out to four." Li Xuan looked at the ten catapults in front of him, and after a little thought, he immediately made a decision.
In the entire Meiling Pass, there are fourteen catapults available today, ten of which are now placed in the urn city, and four of which are on the city wall.
In addition, a lot of other replacement parts have been made.
Looking at the urn city that was empty all of a sudden, and the pile of rolling stones placed on one side, Li Xuan felt a lot more comfortable when he looked at it.
Li Xuan knew that many people now felt a little inexplicable when they looked at him.
His external explanation is to optimize and integrate, and give full play to the combat power of the entire Meiling Pass as much as possible.
But only Li Xuan himself knows that he is actually preparing for the worst.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded outside the urn city.
A black-clothed guard stopped not far away: "Your Majesty, the Wuzhou soldiers Cao and Ku Cao are here." ”
Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and then suddenly said, "Yes, they should also come." ”
After cleaning up a little, Li Xuan walked briskly towards the south gate of Meiling Pass.
……
Outside the city gate, Xu Jian and Li Yuanyi, who were in the dust, stood outside the south gate together with two teams of soldiers and more than a dozen carts.
Seeing Li Xuan with Li Zhu and several black-clothed palace guards appearing at the door, Xu Jian and Li Yuanyi immediately gave up: "I've seen the prince." ”
"You've worked hard." Li Xuan personally helped the two of them up, looked relieved, and said: "The arrival of the two really made this king breathe a sigh of relief." ”
"My subordinates know that there are as many as three or four thousand troops attacking Muzhou this time, so you asked me to come in a hurry." Xu Jian said more things in one sentence.
Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and asked with a little surprise: "...... this news?"
"It's from the Yuezhou Governor's Mansion." Li Yuanyi's eyes flashed slightly.
Li Xuan suddenly understood that it was the news from the Muzhou Baiqi Division.
Although Muzhou fell, it was not completely devoid of people from the imperial court in the entire Muzhou.
The Hundred Riders, who have always been secretive, finally discovered the news.
However, Li Xuan had already gotten this news from Ye Wanwan before.
The Tianyin Sect sent a thousand more people to Meiling Pass than he originally expected.
This means that in the entire Meiling Pass, the number of people inside and outside the Meiling Pass will be twice as damaged as before.
It can't help but feel heavy.
Cleaning up his mood a little, Li Xuan stretched out his hand to invite Xu Jian and Li Yuanyi to enter, introduced the situation a little, and then said directly: "You two men, now go to Beicheng first, and replace half of the soldiers in Beicheng......"
"If the officials go now, they will definitely familiarize themselves with the situation of the city wall as soon as possible." Xu Jian immediately bowed his hand to Li Xuan.
He came down from the battlefield in the Western Regions, and he immediately understood the kindness in Li Xuan's voice.
Watching Xu Jian leave, Li Xuan introduced Li Yuanyi to the main hall of the Captain's Mansion of the Guarding Gate.
"Uncle, is there any news from the court, and can Your Majesty have a holy decree?" Li Xuan said a word, and then stared at Li Yuanyi tightly.
Li Yuanyi shook his head slightly, and asked rhetorically, "What, is the virtuous nephew looking forward to the holy decree?" ”
"Huh?" Li Xuan nodded seriously and said: "The little nephew has fought several times, and most of the people killed are die-hard Tianyin sect disciples, this time the Tianyin Sect army has come south, but among them, like those who were die-hard before, I am afraid that no more than half of them, and the remaining half are mostly people who have been bewitched and coerced, if they can be won over, then the power of the Tianyin Sect will inevitably be greatly reduced, but under one blow, it can be defeated." ”
Hearing Li Xuan say this, Li Yuanyi did not answer him directly, but looked at him thoughtfully.
"What's wrong, was there anything wrong?" Li Xuan was a little confused, and subconsciously turned around to look at herself.
"I heard that when the prince was in the divine capital, he once wrote a poem: The only wish in his life is to get three autumn grains." Li Yuanyi arched his hand and said: "After coming to Wuzhou, the prince has worked hard several times, and the people have received a lot of money. ”
"Uncle is too famous, but I can't bear to see more killings." Li Xuan shook his head slightly, looked at the north, and said softly: "I believe that Your Majesty must be like this......"
"Virtuous nephew, it's good for you and me to talk about this." Li Yuanyi directly interrupted Li Xuan.
He looked at Li Xuan with a little worry, what Li Xuan said just now was not to accuse the emperor of anything, but in case the emperor didn't end up as he thought, once he was attacked, he would be very troublesome.
Li Xuan smiled, waved his hand, and said very firmly: "Uncle rest assured, Your Majesty must think so, it is no secret that the imperial court conquered Tubo, and it is necessary to prepare grain and grass in many ways. ”
Although Li Yuanyi is a clan, he doesn't know much about the court situation, and when he heard Li Xuan's explanation, he immediately understood what was going on.
"In this way, the arrival of the decree should be before this day or two, but I don't know, who will come to deliver the decree?" Li Yuanyi's thoughts inexplicably turned to other directions.
"Lord Wang!" Li Zhu's voice sounded at the door, he looked at Li Xuan with a solemn face, and replied: "Lord Wang, the Muzhou Army is here." ”
……
Under the black flag, a large character is embroidered in the center.
Under the black flag, a burly man in golden bright light armor stood at the edge of the jungle.
On the city wall, the red flag was hung high, and a big Tang character was embroidered on it.
Under the banner, Li Xuan looked at the burly man with a calm face.
[Fang Fengjin, under the command of Wu Yue's general manager Shi Xu, General Yangwei, calm mind, Xuanxian Middle Realm]
Fang Fengjin, Fang Yunxiu's brother, Fang Liyong's father, Lin Jie's cousin and brother-in-law.
These people all died at the hands of Li Xuan, and the hatred between the two of them was already as deep as the abyss.
Crossing the infinite space, the calm and solemn eyes of the two people met.
In an instant, countless swords, guns, swords, halberds, and countless corpses and mountains of blood kept impacting between the two, but no one could hurt anyone.
Suddenly, Fang Fengjin directly turned the dock without any warning and headed towards the camp in the rear.
On the city wall, Li Xuan looked in the direction Fang Fengjin had left.
On the entire mountain road, there are densely packed with the figures of Tianyin soldiers.
All the swords and guns in their hands were in a row, and the momentum was solemn, and they entered the camp in the valley behind them in a neat and orderly manner.
"It's so stable!" Xu Jian looked at the Tianyin camp without the slightest chaos, and his expression was already solemn.
Such an opponent, no matter where he is, is very difficult to deal with.
"It's really stable enough, in the face of this king, the enemy who killed his brother and son, he was so indifferent, it really makes people doubt that he is still not human." As soon as Li Xuan said this, everyone's eyebrows suddenly raised, and they all relaxed unintentionally.
Such a person, indifferent and ruthless, is certainly decisive, but there is no lack of exploitability.
But look at Li Xuan's wrist.
