Chapter Twenty-Six: The Battle of Xilu

Yi Yunhe is one of the newly promoted personnel in Ande in recent years, although his strength is not as good as Xu Ting and other famous generals of the Spirit Clan, but he is also one of the best among some rising newcomers.

Since it was brought up by Ender, it is naturally his cronies. He arranged for this person to work with the Wind Spirit, and the purpose was self-evident. Xu Ting also understood Ande's purpose in his heart, he smiled and saluted on the surface, but secretly said in his heart: Since you have come to Fengling, don't think about retreating.

Yi Yunhe was the closest to Xu Ting, and when he felt a trace of murderous intent hidden under his smile, he couldn't help but tremble, and felt a little timid in his heart, but when he glanced back at Ande, he felt a little comfortable.

Ender's spiritual trip broke the deadlock between the spirits and demons, and the war between the two clans officially broke out. The original intention of the demon clan was to wait for the spirit army to have enough numerical ability to compete with the spirit race before carrying out a large-scale invasion. At this time, the war broke out ahead of schedule, and Mo Yuan had to revise his original plan.

After a day of preparation, on the third day, Pei Yunzhuo led 50,000 light infantry, 50,000 light cavalry, and 20,000 spell troops of the Wind Spirit Legion, a total of 120,000 troops to march to Xilu. Yi Yunhe, as the deputy commander, went out with the army.

At the same time, Ande ordered the people in charge of the surrounding areas of Xilu, Yunliao, Jintong, and Menggu to respond. The three local legions, plus the Wind Spirit Expeditionary Force, total about 200,000 troops. And the vanguard power of the demon race is less than half compared to it, only 100,000 people. And stationed in Xilu, Tongqi, and Keyin, if it is besieged by the spirit clan, it will inevitably be more auspicious.

After the Wind Spirit Legion set out on the expedition, Ande and his party set off to return to Tianling, leaving Yi Yunhe to join the Wind Spirit, and also leaving one of Gu You's people to assist Xu Ting in Lingxin City. For this person, Xu Ting still greeted him with a smile, hiding a knife in his smile, at least before Ande and his party left, he couldn't show too much.

Feng Ling's expedition to Xu Ting will naturally retain his strength, and of course he will not let his 100,000 people be cannon fodder. He had already secretly told Pei Yunzhuo that the main thing was to preserve his strength and retain his combat strength, and he should not collide with the enemy.

The news passed through the demon intelligence force and spread to the ears of the demon abyss. At this time, Mo Yuan was busy selecting the matter of transferring troops from the headquarters, and when he heard the news of the dispatch of the wind spirit, he immediately felt a headache.

I've managed to hold out here for a long time, and seeing that reinforcements from my clan are coming, I can't afford to make a mistake in the last step.

The first batch of reinforcements will be selected, and it will still be based on holding the strength, and the spell troops will be dispatched to add a defensive array. It's just that it seems that these are too late, according to the current development, the Demon Abyss will usher in the enemy's troops first.

As early as shortly after the capture of Xilu, Mo Yuan secretly met with Xu Ting, which made Xu Ting, who was already reluctant to send troops, strengthen his determination. And now that the wind spirit is sending troops, it must not be done. Mo Yuan decided to go to Fengling to meet Xu Ting again, after all, at this time, no matter whether he wins or loses, it is not conducive to his development here.

Mo Yuan handed over the affairs of Xilu to Marshal Qing Yi, and he set off for Lingxin City to visit Xu Ting again.

Not long after Mo Yuan left Xilu, the wind spirit troops led by Pei Yunzhuo marched to the border of Xilu, and before they were close to the main city of Xilu, they stopped camping.

He summoned all the generals in the army to discuss the strategy of attack, and Yi Yunhe, as the deputy marshal appointed by the Spirit King, naturally joined them.

"The soldiers of the Suwen Demon Clan are extremely brave, if they fight head-on, even if they defeat the enemy, I'm afraid we won't be able to reap the benefits ourselves. I don't know if you have any good strategies to break the enemy, which can help our army to open the flag to victory. Pei Yunzhuo summoned everyone to come for this purpose, so he went straight to the point and asked everyone.

Yi Yunhe on the side seemed a little timid in front of Xu Ting, but at this moment, he was out on the expedition, and he was personally appointed by Ande, so he was no longer silent here. "Before the expedition, the Spirit King had already set up a surprise attack plan with the Lord of Xucheng, mainly attacking Keyin Village under the rule of Xilu, and had cut off its connection with the back. What else is there to discuss now, just send some men and horses to attack head-on. ”

The subordinate generals watched the two speak, and no one interjected. They understood that these two commanders were equivalent to the struggle between the Spirit King and Xu Ting.

"In this way, it is necessary to bother General Yi to lead his people to march head-on, and there is no need to fight hard, just delay for a while. Pei Yunzhuo was slightly sarcastic and replied to Yi Yunhe's words with a smile.

Frontal attack, you just said that the demons are brave, so let me attack head-on, so that I can sneak attack Keyin Village to steal the credit, I'm not so stupid. Yi Yunhe thought to himself in his heart, and replied at the same time: "If Coach Pei doesn't confront him head-on, it will inevitably lead to suspicion." It's better for me to go and sneak attack, and Coach Pei still needs to be in charge here. ”

Pei Yunzhuo was secretly happy in his heart, and this was exactly what he wanted. Keyin Village is the only way for the demons to retreat, and its defense must be even tighter than that of Xilu City. If you attack rashly, you are afraid that you will fall into the trap of the enemy. In Yi Yunhe's words, it was clear that he wanted to compete for the first merit in this battle, and if he was so eager for quick success, he would suffer a big loss sooner or later. As early as when he set out on the expedition, he ordered the intelligence troops to reconnoiter Keyin Village, and only three of the 20 people sent have successfully returned, which shows that his garrison is quite tight.

"Since General Yi took the initiative to ask for battle, he must have been prepared, how can I be embarrassed to refuse. The general can choose his own lieutenant general and set off for Keyin, where Pei will definitely cooperate with the attack. Pei Yunzhuo agreed, but he had other ideas in his heart. Yi Yunhe's trip to Keyin will definitely make him go and never return.

The discussion was established, and Yi Yunhe divided 50,000 people to make a detour to the north. Passing through the Jintong area, he mobilized 20,000 troops in the name of Ande and continued to advance.

Not long after Yi Yunhe left, Pei Yunzhuo received instructions from Xu Ting of Lingxin City, to the effect that the two armies should confront each other, retain their strength, and not have a big conflict with the demon clan. He has followed Xu Ting for many years and knows a lot about this ambitious and scheming boss. What's more, Xu Ting had reached a consensus with Mo Yuan in secret, so he naturally knew his intentions.

Due to the fact that there have been many things recently, Mo Yuan did not dare to delay more, and reached a consensus again after meeting with Xu Ting in private, and then returned to Xilu non-stop. At this time, the Xilu defense preparations were already made and ready to resist the attack at any time. In the surroundings of Xilu and Tongqi, various local forces also sent troops one after another. At the same moment, the news of a team led by Yi Yunhe from the north to attack Keyin also reached the ears of Demon Yuan.

Since the invasion of the demons, the Xilu region, which has been quiet for many days, will once again be filled with war. The siege and suppression of Xilu began.

After returning from Lingxin City, Mo Yuan immediately gathered everyone to share information and make a plan. The main battlefield of this battle in Xilu was surrounded by many legions, but only the wind spirit was more tricky. And the trip of the Demon Yuan Spiritual Heart has solved this big problem, and all that is left is Yi Yunhe's sneak attack troops, and the surrounding local legions that are not in the climate.

According to Mo Yuan's analysis, the probability of these troops acting together is relatively high, which will catch them off guard and fall into passivity. On the premise that the wind spirit side remained on the sidelines, Mo Yuan decided to take the initiative. Presumably, the local forces did not expect that their own side would attack boldly when they were in a state of siege.

Mo Yuan set an attack plan, before Yi Yunhe arrived in Keyin, Marshal Qing Yi attacked to the west, the demon general Dingpeng to the south, and himself to the north. On the night march, they attacked the local legions. Bian Lu stayed in Xilu to transmit military information to the three parties in case of accidents. After the matter was completed, the three armies turned around and attacked Yi Yunhe from the west, south, and east.

In Lingxin, after Mo Yuan and Xu Ting reached an agreement, Xu Ting asked Mo Yuan to solve Yi Yunhe. There was nothing wrong with Mo Yuan thinking about it, so he responded to this matter in order to show his sincerity. Now that the three-sided siege strategy has been set, it is even more intended for Yi Yunhe.

Make a plan, and everyone goes their separate ways. Mo Yuan personally led more than 20,000 people and took advantage of the darkness of the night to head north.

Jinnan, a small town in the southern part of the Jintong region. The local army of Jintong was stationed on the south side outside the town. When Mo Yuan arrived here, it was still dark. After a quiet night, close to dawn, it was the time when people's defenses were most relaxed.

Quickly prepare for battle, and after the Demon Yuan gave an order, 20,000 demon warriors rushed out from all around the camp at the same time. Unguarded by the garrison, the crowd quickly rushed into the camp.

Those who can be selected by the Demon Yuan, as the first batch of warriors to enter the spirit, are the elite of the demon race, and they are already good at night fighting, and they are under the rapid attack, so that the army of the spirit world basically loses the ability to fight back.

When the battalion commander reacted, it was already the trend of the times. Therefore, he immediately ordered the whole army to retreat to the east, and at the same time sent people to ask for help from the Fengling garrison.

The first battle was won, and the Demon Abyss no longer pursued. After all, the purpose of this battle was to break up the encirclement, not to completely annihilate the enemy. After the collapse of Jintong's army, Moyuan regrouped his ranks, leaving the wounded and returning to Xilu on their own, while the rest of the people went to Keyin. Strive to set up an ambush before Yi Yunhe leads the team to attack.

On the other hand, Yi Yunhe led his army to pass through Jintong and then moved south to approach Keyin. Halfway through the journey, he received news of the rout of the Jintong army. This couldn't help but surprise him. Being surrounded by the initiative to attack made him feel a dilemma. Since the demons have taken the initiative to attack outward, they must have lax defense in the rear, which is the reason for entering. And since the encirclement has been breached, it is difficult for the other party to say whether it will encircle itself or not, which is a reason to retreat.

Yi Yunhe's worries were justified, but he didn't know that he had fallen into the enemy's trap.

Yi Yunhe quickened his march, and when he was about to reach Keyin Village, he was besieged from three sides. However, the army he led was a part of the Wind Spirit, and could be regarded as the main combat force of the Spirit Race. It didn't take long for them to stabilize their positions and fight each other.

Demon Qingyi followed the instructions of Demon Yuan and directly took the coach Yi Yunhe. How could Yi Yunhe be Qing Yi's opponent in the battle, after a few rounds of fighting, he felt very difficult, so he took the lead in retreating. At the same time, the troops were ordered to retreat together and retreat into the Jintong area to regain their strength. He expected that the demons would retreat to Sirukin and would not chase after him.

If this battle drags on, even if the demon clan wins, it will lose a lot of combat power, so Mo Yuan will order to take the boss directly. But he didn't expect Yi Yunhe to run so fast, he didn't take his life, but he was powerless to pursue again.

The battle ended here, the northern and western fronts broke through the encirclement of the spirit world, but the southern front suffered some defeats and did not defeat Meng Gu's local army. Secondly, the battle with Yi Yunhe only took advantage of the initial sneak attack, and then the casualties on both sides were about the same, and Mo Yuan's preparation to kill Yi Yunhe was not achieved. This made him realize that Feng Ling's strength was still quite tricky, and his cooperation with Xu Ting was very correct.

Yi Yunhe retreated to Jintong, and finally there was no danger, under the joint attack of Moyuan and Qingyi, he did not lose his life, which was already a great luck. He didn't dare to act rashly, and after standing here, he immediately sent someone to get in touch with Pei Yunzhuo to discuss the next step. At this time, in the formation in Keyin Village, another group of brave demon warriors were coming, and Mo Yuan was also making a plan for a counterattack.
