Chapter 174: Rising Army
"Three formations, Ran Ren's northern army, defeated three times in a row!" In Di Jun's base camp, Hao Lianxiong, who couldn't suppress his joy, kept shouting in surprise.
First of all, there was a fiasco in close combat, and when it was pursued and suppressed, it was defeated three times in a row, and no matter who looks at it, the more than 200,000 troops who went to the north were already defeated like a mountain and irretrievable.
"Li Chong, what a big barrier, but Er'er." Between Hao Lianxiong's faces, there was an indescribable spirit. As the nominal boss, as long as he breaks through the Central Plains Daran, then he will be comparable to the founding Emperor Zudi in the great cause of the Di Kingdom.
"National Teacher, it's almost time to kill the Wind Dragon Pass."
Next to Hao Lianxiong, Huo Feng, who had always had a cautious face, was still pondering.
"Prince, no matter what, everything depends on breaking through the Wind Dragon Pass. Fenglong Pass is the Great Wall of the Great Ran Northern Frontier, and in the past ten years, the Ran people have used it as a barrier to block the pace of our Di Kingdom to enter the Central Plains. As for Ran Ren's three consecutive defeats, Li Chong is indeed powerless. ”
"Order, the whole army will continue to attack, stay close to Fenglong Pass, let Xiong Ying be the vanguard, and capture Fenglong Pass in the fastest time!"
In Di Guo's main array, there are many happy faces. They only thought that this time the southern expedition plan was really going to succeed.
……
Outside the Wind Dragon Pass, but more than ten miles.
Night is approaching, and the remnants of the defeated army to the north are following behind Li Chong's headquarters, and their faces are full of sorrow.
A big defeat almost killed the expectations of countless people.
"Enter the Wind Dragon Pass, and it will be safe to enter the Wind Dragon Pass." A lot of generals are still calming morale.
It was still far away, but the battalion left behind did not last long, and it had been defeated by the Di people, and there were countless deserters.
All kinds of miserable images almost prove that the more than 200,000 troops who went to the north have no possibility of victory.
Riding on the horse, Tai Shiqing frowned. Then he raised his head again and looked in the direction of Li Chong, with unwillingness on his face.
In this big defeat, I can't say that I can't return to the court, I can't get military merits, and I have to be held accountable by Mr. Big.
The old friend who knew how to fight, suddenly ran to send a letter from the hell. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was probably missed.
"Li Hou, is there a way now?" After hesitating for a while, Tai Shiqing rode his horse and ran to Li Chong's side.
Unexpectedly, Li Chong only glanced at him and ignored him.
"Li Hou, I'm a person sent by Mr. Big, and this time I, Da Ran, can start a war with the Di people, and it is also thanks to Mr. Big's strategy-"
"If Vice Minister Zhao is here, he won't be as meritorious as you."
In a word, Tai Shiqing was speechless.
"Herald." Li Chong exhaled and looked ahead, "This place is not far from Fenglong Pass, the battle is lost, go back to Fenglong Pass for rectification, wait for the next day, and then fight to the death with Di Ren!" ”
By Li Chong's side, the tens of thousands of "husbands" raised their heads one after another, with a vague determination to kill in their eyes.
The night was completely unfolding.
The Wind Dragon Pass, not far ahead, has already lit a brazier. The faint light of the hall could not illuminate the darkness that filled the world, nor could it scorch the morale of this remnant division anymore.
In the direction of the rear, with a new round of cowardice in the battalion. The pursuit of the Di people is getting closer and closer again. Until the ears were heard, the sound of iron hooves stamping.
"Li Hou beware, if he returns to the pass like this, it is likely that Di Ren will take the opportunity to enter and seize the Fenglong Pass. After all, the morale of such an army going to the north was low, and in a short period of time, it was impossible to gather a defensive position. Moreover, in Fenglong Pass, there are now no more than 10,000 defenders. ”
"I get it." Li Chong's complexion remained unchanged. Not many people know about his plan, except for two henchmen, only Chen Jing is left. Even Zhong Lu in Hucheng only acted according to orders.
"But the morale is broken, and we must rush back to the city as soon as possible."
……
Riding on the horse, Huo Feng half-squinted his eyes. He raised his head, and vaguely saw the Wind Dragon Pass in front of him. The remnants of the division retreated, if he guessed correctly, Li Chong definitely wanted to rush back to Fenglong Pass, re-boost morale, and then continue to fight Di Guo.
"Li Chong, let's go to the Northern Army here." Huo Feng said lightly. Defeat is defeat, beating the water dogs has always been his forte.
"Order, use all Di horses, with the fastest horsepower, cut off the response of the guards of the Wind Dragon Pass."
"Camp Bear! After approaching the city pass, I will send a foot bow to cover, and you will rush to the pass first! Remember, if you succeed in landing first, you need to focus on disrupting the defensive position and cooperate with the rear army to attack the city. ”
"Commander of the Country!" The giant man with three long knives spoke angrily.
"This one...... This time, we vow to break through the level and attack the Central Plains! Unconsciously, even Huo Feng didn't notice it, and his tone was already a little excited.
The surrounding Di generals were even more excited, and they shouted one after another.
At this time, the remnants of the Northern Army, under the constant pursuit and suppression of the Di people, finally fled in a hurry to the front of Fenglong Pass, getting closer and closer.
"Li Hou has an order, open the city gate quickly!"
A general who ran at the front was so anxious that he kept shouting.
"Di Qi can't catch up, enter the customs, enter the customs quickly-"
It's a pity that before the voice was finished, at this moment, a long roar suddenly sounded around the surroundings. Those Di Qi, who had slowed down their horsepower, rushed wildly at this time.
"Break the back camp, break the back camp to block Di Qi!"
The city gate was wide open, and countless soldiers ran into the city gate with a roar. The wounded soldiers were too late, and when they saw the city gates closed, they burst into tears of shock.
Through the door, thousands of broken back camps could only hear bursts of miserable sounds. The heavy grain and grass that could not be pushed back outside the city, if there is no accident, will also be confiscated by the Di people.
More than 200,000 troops went to the north, but in a few days, when they returned to Fenglong Pass, at least 50,000 or 60,000 were lost.
Li Chong's face was still extremely calm.
He looked back at the closed gates, and fell into deep thought.
Until—
A captain who was guarding the city at the head of the city suddenly shouted.
"Master Hou! Di is throwing rope hooks, knocking off! ”
"Quick, block Di Ren!"
Unexpectedly, a burst of flying arrows quickly threw themselves on the city. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of guards were hit by arrows and fell into the wall.
Li Chong raised his face and clenched his fist quietly.
……
"Newspaper—"
"General Chen, General Li, before the Wind Dragon Pass, Di Ren has already knocked on the pass!"
Hearing only this sentence, Chen Jing's face was pleasantly surprised.
"Raise the army—"
"Two hours later, follow me to Fenglong Pass!"
Li Chun, who was beside him, also quickly walked out, preparing to gather the army.
……
The stone forest outside Hucheng.
By the time the news arrived, it was a little late. But Zhong Lu, who was sitting on the stone pile, showed a trace of murderous aura on his face.
He turned his head and looked at the more than 20,000 rebels below.
"Everyone, check the quiver knife and prepare to rush to the Wind Dragon Pass with me!"
"Roar!"
……
