About half an hour, Li Changfeng led the army to arrive.

Although Nangong Changming had never seen Li Changfeng, he still recognized it at a glance.

I saw a man riding a horse, wearing a python robe, although his face was weathered, but he was energetic and extraordinary, and the handsome flag behind him fluttered in the wind.

Obviously, this is Li Changfeng.

"It's all up to me, be respectful to me!"

Nangong Changming let out a low sigh and walked quickly towards Li Changfeng.

Li Changfeng was also observing Nangong Changming.

I saw Nangong Changming wearing black armor, holding a spear, a scarlet cloak fluttering behind him, a dark face with an indifferent expression, his eyes were sharp and resolute, and he had the demeanor of a general.

"The last general, Nangong Changming, meet His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes!"

Nangong Changming bowed down and bowed after a few bows, and all the generals did not dare to slack off, and followed suit.

Li Changfeng's eyes narrowed slightly.

On the front-line battlefield, the general called him the Nine Emperors, but not his military position, and the implication was already obvious.

Nangong Changming's expression was indifferent, but he couldn't see anything.

But the disdain and unwillingness that many generals behind him couldn't hide, just proved his thoughts.

However, Li Changfeng had no idea of bothering with them.

It's normal to have this kind of thought, and they will know later what it means to be blind, what it means to be breathtaking, and what it means to be like a miracle.

And in any case, these people have shed blood and fought hard to defend the southern gate of Daqian.

They deserve to be respected.

Therefore, Li Changfeng did not put on the generalissimo's stand at all, and hurriedly jumped off the horse, walked quickly to Nangong Changming and helped him up.

"General Nangong, please get up!"

Then he looked at the other generals.

"Generals, please get up!"

Just then, a familiar voice came.

"Your Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes, you're finally here!"

Li Changfeng followed the prestige, and saw Chen Jiande with a happy face, walking towards him quickly, looking a little dusty.

"Lao Chen, are you here too?" Li Changfeng was a little surprised.

"Can it not be here? The southern barbarians have all hit Zhennan Pass, how can I sit still? ”

Saying that, Chen Jiande had already come to Li Changfeng's side, pounced on his knees, and arched his hand: "Your Highness, oh no, Lord Marshal, you will be saved when you come to Zhennanguan, the Southern Barbarian is dead!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Nangong Changming's expression remained unchanged, but the disdain on the faces of the generals under his command could no longer be concealed, and he secretly scolded Chen Jiande for being a spineless dog.

Li Changfeng helped Chen Jiande up and said with a smile: "Okay, don't talk about this, get up quickly." ”

After Chen Jiande got up, Nangong Changming arched his hand and said: "Your Highness has been tired all the way, and you have prepared a wine banquet guest house, please go into the city to rest." ”

Li Changfeng waved his hand: "No need, let's enter the city, this prince wants to take a look at the situation in the city, and then climb the city wall to take a look." ”

This move made Nangong Changming feel a little good in his heart.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Nangong Changming personally led the way, and when Li Changfeng led the army into the city, the generals and soldiers of Zhennanguan saw a black, thick and long barrel-like thing in the middle of the team, which looked like a metal texture.

Curious, he whispered.

"It's weird."

"His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes doesn't want to use these things to defeat the evil beasts and barbarian armies, right?"

"How is that possible? What can this thing do? ”

Although Nangong Changming was dissatisfied in his heart, he still fulfilled the duties of a subordinate according to the will, and introduced the current situation of Zhennanguan to Li Changfeng while leading the way.

"Your Highness, at present, there are 140,000 soldiers in Zhennanguan, of which more than 30,000 are wounded and unable to go into battle, more than 90,000 arrows, 179 crossbows but less than 100 long crossbows, and 53 catapults......"

With Nangong Changming's introduction, Li Changfeng's expression became more and more solemn, and he felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

There were more than 90,000 arrows, which seemed to be a lot of money, but they were of little use to thick-skinned creatures like evil beasts.

Unless you can shoot them in the eye.

But this is an evil beast, not an ordinary beast, how can it be so easy to shoot them in the eye?

The ballista can cause effective damage to the evil beast, but the number is pitiful, the most important thing is that the long crossbow is less than 100 white pieces, how to fight?

As for the fifty-three catapults, they were of little use because of their low firing efficiency and the slow flight speed of the stones.

Zhennanguan's situation was even worse than he imagined.

Entering the city, the scene introduced into the eyes made Li Changfeng feel even heavier.

The city was not large, and the more than 30,000 wounded soldiers could not all be placed in their houses, and the streets were full of soldiers who were missing arms and legs and kept wailing.

The pungent smell of blood filled the entire city.

Coming to the city wall, Li Changfeng couldn't help but twitch his cheeks.

Although the city wall of Zhennanguan is incomparable with that of Baishi City, it is much stronger than the walls of other cities after being reinforced by two dynasties.

But at this time, it seems to be a little dilapidated, there are gaps everywhere, and there is even a risk of collapse in some places.

With such a city wall, it is almost impossible to resist a wave of attacks from evil beasts.

Ascending the city wall, a pungent smell of blood and the foul smell of corpse decay came to his face, almost making Li Changfeng vomit on the spot.

Look around.

There were many corpses of evil beasts under the walls, as well as many incomplete human corpses that clearly showed signs of gnawing and gnawing.

Judging from the clothes left on the corpses, they were all of the great soldiers.

Obviously, the barbarian army drove these evil beasts to attack the city.

Nangong Changming looked at the corpses under the city wall, and said in a low tone: "These are all my good sons, but the last general is incompetent, and he can't even save a complete corpse for them!" ”

The other generals looked at the corpses under the city walls, all with anger and sadness on their faces.

Li Changfeng sighed and said, "Don't worry, this prince will avenge them." ”

Nangong Changming was stunned for a moment, and arched his hand: "Your Highness, two days ago, we have already repelled an evil beast attack, according to the previous experience, the next wave of attacks is coming soon, what should we do now?" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals and the soldiers on the city wall suddenly turned their eyes to Li Changfeng.

Some sneered, some disdainful, and some were expressionless.

Li Changfeng looked around at everyone, looked at their expressions, and said loudly: "All the men and horses of the headquarters led by this commander go to the city wall, and the soldiers of Nanguan in the original town will go down to the city to rest!" ”

Nangong Changming was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, there are only more than 30,000 people in His Highness's headquarters, how can you resist the killing of evil beasts?" ”

Li Changfeng didn't explain, and his face sank: "Does General Nangong want to disobey before the battle?" ”

Nangong Changming hurriedly bowed: "The last general will not dare, but Zhennan Pass is the gateway to the south of my great Qian, once the southern evil beast and the southern barbarian have changed and driven straight in, then it will ......"

Nangong Changming is anxious!

Although he didn't like Li Changfeng and didn't think that Li Changfeng had the ability to retreat from the enemy, disobeying orders before the battle was also very likely to ruin his future.

But he was loyal to Emperor Qianwu, loyal to Daqian, cared about the people of Limin, and didn't want Zhennan Pass to be lost.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Changfeng.

"General Nangong!"

Li Changfeng looked serious: "You said that these princes know it, don't worry, the evil beast is not to worry!" ”

After a pause, Li Changfeng's expression softened a little, and he said in a low voice: "General Nangong, this prince is here, how can he joke with his own life?" The brothers have been fighting for so long, so let them have a good rest. ”

Nangong Changming's expression was entangled: "But ......"

Li Changfeng snorted coldly: "Execute the handsome order!" ”

"Hey!"

Nangong Changming sighed, slapped it hard and retreated, and roared at the generals.

"What are you doing? Execute the command! ”

The generals gritted their teeth and glared at Li Changfeng, but Nangong Changming said so, and still carried out the military order indignantly.

Li Changfeng glanced at them and did not speak, and ordered the entourage behind him: "Bring all the artillery and ammunition up, let the people of the musket battalion bring explosives and prepare fuses, and also climb the city wall." ”

"No!"

The attendant replied and stepped back.

Soon, the soldiers of the artillery battalion, with a uniform number in their mouths, took heavy steps, and in groups of more than a dozen people, carried one artillery gun after another to the city wall.

Nangong Changming, who was sulking on the side, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw such a scene.

"What is this?"

Chen Jiande came to his side, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "General Nangong, this is the magic weapon of His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes, with them, no matter how many evil beasts come, it is a dead end, you can rest assured that the soldiers under your command will rest." ”

Nangong Changming was stunned again.

After a moment, he asked tentatively, "Is this the secret weapon in the legendary Imperial Village of the Capital City?" ”

Chen Jiande said: "I don't know if it's the secret weapon in the Imperial Village in the capital, but I know that these things can kill evil beasts, and the hole cards of His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes are more than these, last time the Wasteland was besieged by evil beasts, I can still come to support in time, do you think I killed the evil beasts?" ”

Nangong Changming's eyes widened: "What do you mean...... His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes killed and retreated? ”

"Or else? Or do you think that our Majesty is really so mediocre that he sent a useless man to lead the army? ”

Nangong Changming was stunned, glanced at the visually striking artillery, and then looked at Li Changfeng, who was commanding, and examined it carefully.

……

"Jianye, the recoil of the artillery is not small, it must be built steadily, you can't let them run around with one shot, you must ensure that you can shoot continuously!"

"All the shells have been moved to the city wall, the number is sufficient, don't be reluctant, the scientific research institute is working overtime to catch up with the production, and it will continue to be sent later!

"What about the men of the musket battalion? The explosives bag is put on the back of the prince, and don't forget the shovel, if you don't bring it, you will hand planer it for the prince! ”

"And a few of you, don't you know what's in the box? Handle with care! ”

Li Changfeng commanded at the scene in an orderly manner, without the slightest worry or panicked look, and the soldiers under his command also looked calm, and even had some expectations.

Nangong Changming couldn't help but be a little stunned when he saw this scene.

Seem......

His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is not so unbearable.
