Chapter 236: Absolute Disadvantage

It has been a year since that vigorous war.

During this year, the monks of the outer lands forgot about this war, and they began a new national war—a national war that belonged to them.

There is no battle between those desperate demi-immortals, but with their own strength, they start fighting.

Ji Sen led an army of 300,000 personal guards and resisted the Western Qin army at Dingtian Pass for a whole month.

A month later, the army led by Bai Qi finally broke through the Dingtian Pass under the onslaught - with the opponent's millions of troops taking turns bombarding with spells, no matter how strong the Dingtian Pass was, it could not hold out for long.

After inflicting enough casualties on his opponent, Ji Sen led the remnants of his more than 100,000 guards to retreat, while the Western Qin army began to advance towards the royal city of Linzi after resting a little at Dingtian Pass.

Then they fell into the sea of people's war in the Eastern Qi Kingdom.

All the monks have been mobilized by the Eastern Qi State, and they have been divided into countless squads, constantly laying down one defense line after another in front, and all the routes that can be used to block have become places for them to block their opponents.

Although such a blockade will not bring much damage to the Western Qin army, after all, the blockade is all the first and second grades of the Great Dao Period, or even the monks of the Innate Period, but the existence of these blockers has effectively delayed the advance of the Western Qin army.

Bai Qi is also a general, seeing that it is not possible to go on like this, he will divide the army into dozens at the moment, advancing all over the mountains, and after a certain unit encounters resistance, the other troops will not stop their march.

As long as there is a way to reach the city of Linzi, then it is the time for the final decisive battle between the two sides.

At this time, the Northern Zhao Iron Cavalry led by Zhao Wushuang dealt a heavy blow to Western Qin.

She led the army to strike out from the side, severely damaging the Western Qin's army, and the Eastern Qi had already mobilized the army, and when the nearby three Western Qin troops came to support, they came to a beautiful encirclement point to send reinforcements, exterminating the Western Qin army of 500,000 and making it withdraw from the battle, but its own damage was only 100,000.

This was the biggest loss suffered by the Western Qin army since the beginning of the National War.

At the same time, the Northern Yan assassins led by Yan Hui were constantly harassing the supply lines of the Western Qin army in the rear, although the monks needed very little supplies, but the basic pills and ores were very needed, at least those qi-replenishing pills, after each major battle, could allow the army to quickly recover its combat strength, if there was no supplement of the pills, the army would have to stop and wait for all the soldiers to recover their combat strength before advancing, otherwise, the monks of the Escape Period who lacked the true qi in their bodies might be defeated by the monks of the Innate Period.

Such a three-pronged approach made the Western Qin army suffer a setback from Yan zhòng, although Bai Qi was an unborn general, but in the Eastern Qi This kind of encirclement that does not care about casualties, it also had to stop the pace of advance.

The two sides launched a tug-of-war at a place 30,000 miles east of Dingtian Pass, and the new army continuously cultivated by the Jixia Academy strongly supported the military strength of the Eastern Qi Dynasty.

And the domestic supplements of Western Qin are also coming in a steady stream, but after all, the distance is farther, and the supplementary soldiers are constantly harassed, and the balance of victory seems to be gradually tilting in the direction of Eastern Qi.

However, nine months after the start of the war, Western Qin once again seized the initiative.

The detachment led by Wang Qian, another famous general of Western Qin, bypassed the Southern Chu State and launched a surprise attack from the south, and this time the target of their attack was Jixia Academy!

Although the Jixia Academy, which was caught off guard, resisted, it was still unable to resist under the superior strength of the other party, and the elder group led by the three deans was also besieged by the opponent's masters, and was finally forced to leave the Jixia Academy, and the army of 500,000 people that had just been trained was also dumpled by the other party, and could only retreat.

After taking Jixia Academy, the army led by Wang Jian defeated the Southern Route army of Eastern Qi from the flank like an angry dragon, and Bai Qi also took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the Eastern Qi army was defeated and retreated tens of thousands of miles.

The two armies of the Western Qin Dynasty were encircled, suppressing the Eastern Qi army on a narrow front, and completely losing the mobility of the Eastern Qi army!

When the two sides were at a stalemate, Wang Jian showed his brilliance - not only was he able to defeat Nan Chu in a head-on confrontation, but such a surprise attack also had an extremely good appearance!

Although the foundation of the Eastern Qi army has not been lost, they still have strong troops, but strategically, they are already at an absolute disadvantage.

After the siege, the Western Qin army was already far superior to the Eastern Qi army, and more importantly, they could concentrate on facing the opponent in front of them, rather than looking for an opponent in the vast land.

The current battle line is only tens of thousands of miles away from the royal city of Linzi.

If the Eastern Qi army is defeated here, the Eastern Qi State will no longer have any ability to resist the pressure of the Western Qin army!

In the king's tent, the clouds were gloomy.

The three deans of Jixia Academy sat on Ji Changwei's right hand, and their expressions were so ugly.

No one thought that when the two sides were at a stalemate, Western Qin actually let Bai Qi use a large number of low-level monks' army as a temptation to attract the attention of the Eastern Qi army, but the real elite had all been transferred to Wang Qian's partial army, secretly bypassing the Southern Chu State, directly attacking Jixia Academy, and coming to the bottom of the kettle!

Although the strength of the Jixia Academy is also very strong, the elder group composed of hundreds of Escape Stage monks is comparable to a million army, but with the same number of Escape Period masters and a large number of strong sergeants, in the face of the academy army that has only just been trained, mainly students of the Innate and Great Dao Stages, it is easy to achieve victory!

Although it is said that most of the people who have been forced to withdraw from the Eastern Qi Kingdom have been low-level monks, and the strength of the top-level monks has not been damaged too much, but on the whole, they are already at an absolute disadvantage.

"We can't afford to go back any longer. ”

Ji Changwei said in a low voice: "Go 50,000 miles, it is the royal city of Linzi, and if we retreat, we can only put all our strength in Linzi, because as soon as Linzi falls, we will no longer have any ability to resist." ”

The crowd will be silent.

This is the truth, in the national war, the fall of Wangcheng represents the conquest of the country, just like now, whether it is Northern Zhao, Northern Yan, Western Wei or Southern Chu, they still have a large number of military strength has not been eliminated, but after the fall of Wangcheng, all the armies involved in the national war can no longer participate in the war.

Therefore, Zhao Wushuang could only bring tens of thousands of iron horsemen who did not participate in the war to help Eastern Qi, so Yan Hui could only lead more than 10,000 assassins who traveled with him in Eastern Qi to help Eastern Qi.

If it is beaten to the city of Linzi, then even if the Eastern Qi has more military strength, it can only choose to fight a decisive battle with the Western Qin under the city, until the Western Qin army is completely wiped out, or it is wiped out by the Western Qin.

However, if it is completely defeated here, then it will not make much difference whether Linzi is defended or not - a city without military strength, no matter how majestic it is, is only an empty city.

The strong combat power of the Western Qin Army was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

Originally, I thought that after all the troops were mobilized, not to mention driving out the Western Qin army, it would be certain to resist for three years, but it was only a year, and the Eastern Qi had already reached the moment of life and death!

This is not only because of the weakness of the military strength, the national strength of the Eastern Qi is much weaker than that of the Western Qin, but it is not worse than this, this is the difference between the abilities of the generals!

Whether it is Bai Qi's aggression like fire, or Wang Qian's rapid advance like the wind, they all show the top art of war, and the military strength of the Eastern Qi is not much worse, but they are played by the other party.

And what about the Eastern Qi Kingdom? There are no such generals.

The three deans are all geniuses, and they all have their own extremely good aspects, but their characteristics lie in cultivation, scheduling, and macro control, and in terms of war, they are really not good at it.

Ji Sen, who is the most capable of fighting, can only support hard in the face of Bai Qi, and fight face to face, Ji Sen is not afraid of Bai Qi at all, but the two armies are facing each other...... Ji Sen has long admitted that he is not as good as Bai Qi.

What's more, there is also a Wang Jian who is usually inconspicuous, but changed the entire situation in one fell swoop.

The only thing that makes the people of Eastern Qi happy is that in such a war, Eastern Qi also has generals who have grown up.

Ji Renfeng, Tian Dan.

These two six-grade monks, in the war, gradually showed their command talent, Ji Renfeng was strong with soldiers, and he was a good hand at fighting tough battles, and Tian Dan was as pervasive as flowing water.

In this year's war, Ji Renfeng and Tian Dan, who gradually had greater command, really made a lot of contributions.

However, after all, they are still growing, and compared with experienced generals like Bai Qi and Wang Qian, they are still a cut behind the boss.

If the military strength has an advantage, they can use the method of dragging to the death to slow down the past three years, but now, the military strength of the Eastern Qi is also at a disadvantage......

Everyone in the big tent sighed.

If it goes on like this, how can I get it?

Is it only to come to the final battle, even if you lose, you have to lose vigorously?

Although it is said that it has been annexed, everyone here is still a high authority, and for Ji Changwei and others, they will go to the Central Celestial Empire in a short time, and it will have no impact on their future, but letting the Eastern Qi Kingdom disappear in their own hands is one thing that no one wants to accept.

"Report, Your Majesty, Commander Ji Renfeng asks to see. ”

Ji Changwei nodded, no matter how difficult it is, people still have to see it, and Ji Renfeng is making rapid progress now, could it be that he has come up with a good way?

Soon, Ji Renfeng walked in.

Ji Renfeng, who is walking like a tiger, has a momentum on his body at this moment, and he has faintly broken through the sixth grade and reached the seventh grade.

He himself is a monk at the peak of the sixth grade, although it is said that breaking through to the seventh grade, that is, breaking through the immortal period to the free period, is the last big pass in the outer region, and it is extremely difficult to break through, but in the battle of more than a year, Ji Renfeng has repeatedly fought to the death with his opponent, and he has also reached the verge of breaking through.

War is indeed a big oven that makes people grow faster.

"Renfeng, come here today, is there any situation?"

"Exactly. ”

Ji Renfeng saluted, and then said with a smile: "Today's child has a plan to solve the crisis at this moment." ”

"Oh?"

The monks in the big tent all looked shocked--Ji Renfeng actually dared to say such a thing? Could it be that there was really some clever plan?

However, everyone is a little unconvinced, the so-called clever plan can only be brought into play when there is a certain strength, just like Bai Qi and Wang Qian, although they are top generals, but if they do not have a strong military force like Xiqin, they will not be able to achieve their current results.

Just like several other countries, it is not without top-level generals, Xiang Yan of Southern Chu, Li Mu of Northern Zhao, Lian Po of Western Wei, and Jing Ke of Northern Yan, all of which are famous generals in the Eastern Continent, but they still cannot change the fate of the destruction of the four countries.

"Then I will ask the military advisor to explain it to us. Ji Renfeng laughed.
