Chapter 357: A Big Loss

An army of 50,000 natives marched towards the renamed No. 1 City, and the distance between the two sides was no more than twenty miles.

Along the way, not to mention any ambushes and ambushes, there are not even so-called traps, it can be said that they are unimpeded.

Su Qi'an's great name can be described as thunderous in the priest alliance, especially when he killed the high priest and forcibly occupied the high priest's territory, which suddenly made the patriarch priest unable to sit still.

Of course, it was only one of them who couldn't sit still, and as for the other two patriarchs, they were not very excited.

In the priest alliance, the highest status is naturally the three patriarchs, and the patriarchal priests dispatched this time are the two patriarchs.

The reason why he dared to gather 50,000 natives and send troops straight to Qingcheng County was mainly because the high priest of Qingcheng was his men.

The high priest under his own command was killed, the territory was occupied, or was it occupied by a cool man, this was a slap in the face, if he didn't show a little, what did the two patriarchs of the priest alliance think.

The alliance of priests seems to be united and harmonious, but in fact there are constant internal strife, and among the three patriarchs, each has its own jurisdiction over the priests.

The status is equal, at this time, in his own jurisdiction, if this matter happens, if he solves it, how will he serve the public in the future, and how will he lead his priests.

What can become a patriarch priest is not how many people he has, but more about his prestige, whether he can settle things for his priests, so that he can get the support of the priests.

There is friction between the high priest of Qingcheng and the Liang man Hou Ye, what is Su Qi'an's name, he knows.

I thought he could solve it, after all, the high priest had a friendship with his neighboring county guard, and the two joined forces, even if they couldn't kill this surnamed Su, but it shouldn't be a big problem to drive them out of their territory.

But who knows, these two people were actually killed by this Liangren Hou Ye, which is a shame for the patriarch priest.

And he occupies the territory of the high priest, and he knows exactly how much oil and water is behind it.

Every year, the high priest of Qingcheng will make offerings to him, and now it's okay, the people who make offerings are gone, and the land has been robbed.

The two elders did not hesitate, and immediately ordered to gather the other high priests under him, preparing to send troops to fight Su Qi'an.

Before the action, the two elders made sufficient preparations and sent a letter to the governor in advance.

The two elders were also afraid that his actions would be blocked by Li Kang, so he fought in the name of recovering the high priest's territory, and as for the county seat and county seat, he would not touch it.

This idea is cleverly played, it is a fact that Su Qi'an occupies the territory of the big and small priests, so take advantage of the situation and put Su Qi'an into it, and make it a territorial battle between the priests.

Originally, as soon as Su Qi'an occupied the territory of the little priest, he was the new little priest.

didn't take Su Qi'an seriously before, and the Priest Alliance didn't recognize the new little priest at all.

Now give him the name of the priest directly, and send troops directly to the light.

Li Kang's reply can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence to the idea of the two elders, and the state city will not send troops to intervene.

Got the news, the two elders were not very excited, Li Kang is who, he knows too well, an old fox.

It's too normal to not send troops now, but it must be a drama of fighting for fishermen's profits under the guise of sandpipers and mussels.

Although he knew, he still concluded that only by regaining the high priest's territory would his reputation not fall and he would be able to convince the people.

As for Li Kang's desire to make a profit, it depends on whether he has the ability to do it, and he has already discussed it with the other two elders.

Su Qi'an's matter will be solved by him, if Li Kang wants to be a fisherman later, the other two elders will immediately help.

Li Kang's troops were dispatched, and the nature changed, although there were contradictions between the three elders, they still shared the same hatred for the enemy in terms of unanimity.

If it weren't for his own children, who became protons in the state city, Li Kang had tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands, which made them jealous, otherwise it would be impossible to obey him for so many years.

For the Liang people, they are born with some rejection, this rejection is brought by their ancestors, even if the Great Liang gives them a high degree of autonomy in Jiaozhou, but in their bones, they always think that the Liang people occupy their land, this is a feud, and it cannot be reconciled.

The death of the high priest, although it was killed by a female assassin, it is a fact that Su Qi'an occupied the high priest's territory.

This account must have been calculated by Su Qi'an, this expedition, in addition to gathering 50,000 natives, at the same time with five high priests.

There were only eight high priests under his control, and one died, brought five, and left two in his lair.

This expedition basically took away most of the high-level, and the dead high priest of Qingcheng ranked third among the eight people, and this time it was the second, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh priests who were dispatched.

Compared with the calmness of the two elders, the five priests who went out this time were quite excited in their hearts.

Along the way, there was joy on his face from time to time, this expedition, the two elders promised as they were, the territory of the three priests, whoever has the ability, can occupy more.

To put it bluntly, it depends on who has enough power for the natives, which is real, and the five of them are quite coveted for the territory of the three priests.

Among the eight of them, the land allocated by the three priests can be ranked in the top three, and the land is not bad, and the annual oil and water is at least more than 100,000.

"The third child has a life, but he doesn't have a life, and I wanted to have a drink with him, it's a pity."

Of the five people sitting on horseback, two of them the priest lamented.

"Tsk, second brother, you better put away your hypocrisy, if you really feel sorry for the third brother, why don't you send troops and be indifferent, if you send troops, maybe the third brother's territory is yours now." A priest beside him said.

"Hehe, there's nothing wrong with what the sixth brother said, we priests, how can there be so many problems with the cool people, the second brother is less hypocritical, the third brother is dead, and it is also a blessing to return to the arms of the gods." Four priests.

"Haha, I'm not a scholar of Liangren who sighed a little." The second priest burst out laughing.

"Second brother, I advise you to have less contact with the cool people in your territory, you are infected with some cool people, be careful that you will be cleared by the cool people one day." The Fifth Priest pouted.

"Hehe, I don't care how hypocritical my brothers are, this expedition, the second elder said, it's all up to ability, this time the third brother's territory, I have to get the best."

"Haha, I like the straightforwardness of the seventh, I heard that this time the third child's territory was divided into five points, this Hou Ye surnamed Su is prescient, and specially prepared it for the five of us."

"Everyone, the second brother will go first, who can get the best piece depends on personal ability."

The second priest laughed loudly, shook his whip fiercely, and the horse under his crotch rode away quickly, and at the same time, there were about 10,000 natives behind him, who followed quickly.

In this expedition, in order to ensure the most basic fairness, the five priests can only bring 10,000 people, and as for what kind of goods these 10,000 people are, it depends on how they govern the territory and how they are cultivated.

Soon after the second priest's fast horse whipped, the four priests beside him glanced at each other, and also attacked quickly with the fastest speed with his ten thousand natives.

The conversation between the five priests, the two elders sitting in the back of the sedan bed, heard it clearly, or more precisely, the five did not hide it in the slightest.

If it is some powerful people who are changed to Da Liang*** when they hear this, they will definitely look displeased, in their eyes, this is completely a kind of idiot with no brains and no emotional intelligence.

But for the natives of the Priest Alliance, this kind of falsehood and politeness of the Liang people on the surface is the most rubbish in their eyes.

may smile in front of him, and he may not know how to stab the other party in the back.

For the death of the three priests, they will have revenge, but the territory will also be unceremoniously occupied.

Life and death have a fate, and it can only be said that the three priests don't have that fate.

The two elders sitting on the sedan bed watched the five priests lead the troops out, and he whispered to the people around him.

"Go down with the five priests, don't be careless, don't fall for the tricks of the surname Su."

The people around him got the order and quickly caught up.

The patriarchal priests who can become the priests of the Priesthood Alliance, the insight of the two patriarchs is far from being comparable to the priests below.

If nothing else, let's just say that under Li Kang's rule, he can still do it without being replaced by Li Kang and secretly do it, which is enough to explain the two

Patriarch, there are still means.

Although the two elders instructed in advance, the speed of the five priests was too fast, and they directly divided their troops less than two or three miles away from the territory of the three priests.

As if they had discussed it, they divided their troops into five routes and selected their own cities to attack.

At first, the attack went well, but as the indigenous army gradually deepened, the five priests got a little carried away.

Every city, on the ground, and around it, has a large number of ambushes.

thought that with the advantage of numbers, they would come to a wave of strong pushes, but they underestimated these cool soldiers a little.

Although they did not encounter many soldiers, only about 600 people, but with the ambushes, traps, and several arrow towers built in advance, these arrow towers were in excellent locations, showing an encirclement situation, and there were countless arrows in the arrow towers, which caught them off guard for a while.

Moreover, in the dense array of arrows, on both sides and around, there were people who took the initiative to attack them with the arrows that came from them.

This kind of fatal scene really frightened them, and countless casualties were killed and injured at once.

And because there were too many people at once, the terrain was so big that it couldn't be used at all.

The corpses piled up with dead and wounded, crowded in front and back, and under the attack of arrows and soldiers who did not want to die, a sense of fear arose.

To add insult to injury, there was also a stampede.

I thought that this surnamed Su was afraid of their army, and there was no obstacle along the way, even if he knew each other, he was prescient.

After all, 50,000 versus 5,000, a person can drown them with a mouthful of spit.

invisibly, it exacerbated the conceit in their hearts, and it was because of this conceit that they suffered a big loss all of a sudden.

Seeing that they were gradually caught in a dilemma, the five priests did not hesitate and immediately ordered all the natives under their command to retreat.

In terms of war experience, they are almost zero, but they are not stupid, they have suffered such a big loss at the moment, and if they tolerate indulgence, maybe they will have to kill and wound most of them, and retreating immediately is the best policy.
