Chapter 320: The Four Princesses Lead the Troops
Qi Tian led an army of 30,000 to attack overnight, and soon marched twenty miles.
He sat in the wind and fire, opened the car door and looked into the dark distance, his eyes becoming more and more worried.
Xiao Xiaobing and the deputy general didn't come back for a day, something must have happened, maybe they have become prisoners of the Lion Empire.
Qi Tian and Xiao Xiaobing have known each other since they were in Yunhai City, and they have accompanied Qi Tian to fight many battles all the way, killing many enemies, and even helping Qi Tian deal with Huang Wu, the then city lord of Yunhai City, and Xie Jingxuan, the city captain, when Qi Tian was not gaining momentum, and the relationship between the two is extremely deep.
"General!" a former scout ran over.
"What's the matter?" Qi Tian's heart jumped.
"General, I found the battlefield where we fought, and there are the corpses of our cavalry and lion cavalry. The scout said.
Qi Tian's heart sank, what should come is still coming, it seems that Xiao Xiaobing must have encountered the lion cavalry.
He jumped out of the carriage and ran straight ahead.
The fourth princess also jumped out of the carriage and followed Qi Tian closely.
Although it was dark, the moonlight on the grassland was exceptionally bright, and there was no shelter around, so I could still see everything in front of me.
I saw that there were many corpses of artillery legion cavalry and lion cavalry lying in front of me, but the number of black armor of the artillery legion was much more than that of the lion cavalry.
"Come on, quickly check if there is Xiao Xiaobing here!" Qi Tianda's face was full of anxiety, and he didn't even dare to imagine that Xiao Xiaobing was unwilling to be hacked to death.
"Yes!" hundreds of soldiers immediately examined the corpses on the battlefield.
"Report to the Great General, there is no body of General Xiao. A soldier soon came to report.
Qi Tian's tense heart suddenly relaxed, and he paced back and forth with a sigh of relief.
Since Xiao Xiaobing is not dead, it means that he must have been captured by Emperor Nu Han now.
"Qi Tian. There was a soft call from his dress.
Qi Tian raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look, "What's the matter?"
"Leave the attack on the lion court to me. The fourth princess said.
Qi Tian's brows twisted into a pimple, "The environment here is unfamiliar, and the soldiers who can garrison the Lion Court must be the elite of the elite, are you sure?"
"Some time ago you fought in front, and I was not idle. The fourth princess looked at the artillery legion at the back of the team, "The maximum range of our artillery can reach a distance of six hundred meters, and the explosion range is also sixty abbots, I am confident that I can defeat the Lion Court." ”
Qi Tian's brows still did not relax, and his expression became hesitant.
Seeing Qi Tian's hesitation, the fourth princess was a little displeased, "Although I was defeated by Emperor Cree, I am also a general who leads troops all year round, and my current opponent is not Emperor Cree, the number one general in the mainland, but Emperor Anuhan, I don't believe it is not his opponent!"
Qi Tian didn't answer, but slowly turned around and turned his back to the four princesses.
He vaguely felt that the next battle was not so simple.
Just as he pondered, his arms were grabbed by a pair of strong, thick hands, which lifted him up and then boarded him up.
"What do you mean, it's different in the end!" the fourth princess said in a fierce tone, and looked at Qi Tian with cold eyes.
Qi Tian only felt that he should strengthen his training, it was not a matter to be brought up by a woman all the time, it would damage the face of men!
"Can you put me down first, my feet are still in the air. ”
"You promise me first. ”
Qi Tian was helpless, "Okay, promise you." ”
"Talisman!" said the fourth princess.
Qi Tian was stunned for a moment, "Soldier talismans?"
Since he led the troops, he had never seen such a thing as a soldier talisman, and he only had an emperor token in his hand, and he had not used it yet.
Because as long as the entire army of the Sunny Empire hears the order of General Qi Tian, they will obey the dispatch, and the whole country knows that Qi Tian is the Great General of the Protector and leads the national army.
Of course, there is another sentence that everyone has not said, now Qi Tian is not only in power, but also has a statement far and wide, and no one dares to disobey Qi Tian's orders because he has no military talisman.
The fourth princess frowned, "Then you give an order in public and tell the whole army to listen to me." ”
"Okay..."Qi Tian reluctantly agreed.
Only then did the fourth princess let him go, and then immediately went to find the deputy of the whole legion here.
"General!"
The five lieutenants came to Qi Tian's side, and the fourth princess stood at Qi Tian's side, looking at him menacingly.
These lieutenants were in charge of the front army, the middle army, the scouts, logistics, the artillery corps, and so on.
"This..."Qi Tian muttered, "Next, the whole army will obey the dispatch of the fourth princess." ”
The lieutenants were stunned for a moment, glanced at the proud fourth princess, and did not hesitate, and replied unanimously: "Obey!"
The fourth princess finally nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly, she remembered something again, "Do you still have a thousand Black Flag Legions?"
Qi Tian's forehead darkened, and he said helplessly: "You have to leave me some soldiers and let them protect my safety, right?"
This time, he went deep into the hinterland of the grassland and brought the Black Flag Legion that was drained from the mountains and rivers.
The fourth princess thought about it and felt that it was just a thousand soldiers, so she nodded, turned around and took the lieutenants to the camp to discuss matters.
At this time, Qi Tian was left alone, and he looked into the distance, his brows furrowed tightly.
Although the other party is just an emperor who has been put on the throne by others, it is completely different from the previous Emperor Cree.
First, the terrain of Wolf Rain Pass, including the inland, Qi Tian is very familiar, or he can't choose to block Emperor Kelie in the high mountains and rivers.
Second, Emperor Keree didn't know all the news about Qi Tian at that time, let alone the existence of artillery and other firearms, but now that Xiao Xiaobing and an unfamiliar lieutenant were arrested, Xiao Xiaobing's loyalty did not need to be questioned, but that adjutant was different, and he was very likely to reveal all the information on Qi Tian's side.
Third, Qi Tian had plenty of time to prepare, and even dug a trench in advance, but not now, but Ah Nuhan had time to dig a trap in advance and wait to ambush him.
Before Qi Tian could finish thinking, the army had already started on the road, and the fourth princess and several lieutenant generals were walking at the front of the army with their chests up, completely ignoring him, the general...
"Do you want this," he muttered to himself.
"A woman is an animal that will leave a man as long as she gets what she wants from a man. ”
Qi Tian was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Bingfeng, "Have you been hurt by a woman before?"
Bingfeng looked away and stopped talking.
"Hey, let's talk about it, let me know more about you, okay?" Qi Tian asked.
But Bingfeng remained silent, looking at the sky...
"Wang!" Xiao Huang saw that Qi Tian was "abandoned", and ran over to rub Qi Tian's thighs.
Qi Tian touched its head, "Alas, I originally wanted to say a few words for women, but now I don't know what to say..."
"What should we do now?" Bingfeng suddenly asked.
Qi Tian glanced at Bingfeng with resentment, and said, "Naturally, I will follow the army of the four princesses, but don't follow too closely, keep a distance of one thousand meters." ”
Although Bingfeng didn't know why he did this, he also drove honestly and followed behind the Four Princesses.
And the 1,000-strong Black Flag Legion followed closely behind Wind and Fire.
-------
The fourth princess had a cold and proud look on her face, she was finally in charge of the legion again, and she was also a more powerful guard and artillery legion than her own four princess legions.
The black armor of the artillery legion shimmered with a dark luster in the dark night, and its cool shape was like a thousand killing gods descended from the heavens!
The fourth princess secretly swore in her heart that she must not leave any piece of armor killed by the entire Lion Court, and even blasted the entire Lion Court to the ground to wash away the shame of being almost wiped out!
After traveling dozens of miles overnight, next to the river bank in front of me, there was really a flickering fire, and it was obviously a large camp!
The fourth princess sneered and said to the lieutenant general beside her: "Extinguish all the torches of the legion, set up artillery at a distance of four hundred meters from the camp in the middle of the night, and then fire it in disorder! I will raze the entire lion court to the ground!"
"Yes!" the lieutenant in charge of the artillery corps ran towards the back of the army.
"The Guards are guarding in front of the artillery corps to prevent the enemy from breaking through the net and coming out of the barracks!" the fourth princess ordered again.
"Yes!" shouted the lieutenant general of the Guards.
The corners of the fourth princess's mouth were slightly hooked, when the lion court was completely razed to the ground, she was almost wiped out by the Emperor Kereh, even if she was washed away, she would even have more merit than fault!
Soon, the army came to the south side of the Lion Court, and at night, it was difficult for anyone to see the mighty army except for the reflection of the moonlight under the black armor.
"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, the artillery has been set up!" replied the adjutant general of the artillery corps.
"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, the scouts sent out earlier have already found out that except for a few sentries on the periphery, all the other lion soldiers should be sleeping in the tent. Said the former adjutant general.
"Very good!" the fourth princess's face was full of murderous intent, "Listen to my orders, all artillery is aimed at the lion barracks, and a hundred cannons will be fired in unison!"
"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess. The adjutant general of the artillery corps suddenly shouted, "General Xiao is still inside!"
The fourth princess looked at him indifferently, and said word by word: "If the Lion Court can be destroyed, a general is just a general, what does it matter if he dies?
The adjutant general heard the reprimand of the fourth princess, although his expression was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything, after all, the military order is like a mountain, since the general handed over the command of the legion to the fourth princess, they must obey the words of the fourth princess, otherwise it will be disobedience and will be dealt with by military law.
The reputation of the fourth princess in the legion is far inferior to Qi Tian, not only because Qi Tian is invincible, but also minimizes losses every time, and even considers the safety of the brothers next to her as much as possible!
Soon, under the orders of the fourth princess, the pitch-black grassland resounded in vain with a series of huge cannon shots and fires.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The distant position was ablaze in an instant, and the earth-shattering explosion sounded like the sky was cracking, the end of the continent!
The soldiers standing at the sentry post fell from the platform with a wail.
Several of the lion soldiers in the battalion were even more on fire, and they ran around the camp and set fire to other tents...
"Keep firing, keep firing!" the fourth princess commanded loudly.
Soon, the second round of shelling began again.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The lion's court turned into purgatory, the sky-high fire illuminated the surroundings as if it were day, and the billowing black smoke was like a black cloud that obscured the sky and the sky, and the air was filled with an unpleasant scorching smell.
"Go on, go on!" shouted the fourth princess, "I'm going to raze the lion court to the ground!"
Soon, the third round of artillery was fired again!
At this time, the entire lion court was full of raging flames, almost collapsing.
"Someone!" the fourth princess whispered.
"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess!" a cavalryman came running.
"Go and tell the general, who is still walking slowly, that the court of the lion has collapsed, just wait where he is, and I will return with the army soon. The fourth princess said proudly.
"Yes!" the cavalry turned and ran quickly.
"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, now that we have destroyed the Lion Court, we are not a soldier, you will definitely give us credit, right?" said a lieutenant with a smile.
"The artillery made by the general is really powerful, such a big lion court was destroyed in one fell swoop, it is estimated that those lion soldiers were blown up in their sleep!haha..."
The fourth princess looked at the lieutenant generals around her and waved her hand, "Don't worry, I will ask for credit for you." ”
It's just that everyone didn't notice the face of one person, the adjutant general of the artillery corps.
At this time, he did not feel a sad look because Xiao Xiaobing was buried in the fire, but frowned faintly, feeling that something was wrong.
When he was in the imperial capital, he received strict artillery training from the general, not only how to operate the artillery, but also learned the power of the cannonball very clearly.
He looked at the fire-filled lion court in the distance, and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't see anything wrong.
Suddenly, his expression changed drastically and he shouted, "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, something is wrong!"
The fourth princess was stunned, turned her head to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"The Great General once told the last general that although artillery is powerful, it can rarely directly destroy the opponent's living force, unless those people are lying where the artillery has landed. The adjutant general of the artillery corps pointed to the barracks in front, "Look at the Lion Imperial Court, except for the sentinels on the periphery, there are no lion soldiers running in all directions in those open spaces!"
The fourth princess was stunned for a moment, and immediately recalled in her mind the scene when she was bombarded by Emperor Cree in the Wolf Rain Pass.
"Also, the power of the cannonballs is so great that when they explode in the tent, the force of the explosion will blow the bodies of the lion soldiers flying, but you see, there is nothing but the collapsed tents, neither the corpses nor the fleeing soldiers!" shouted the lieutenant of the artillery regiment.
The four princesses' eyes also widened instantly, the adjutant general was right, most of the soldiers in her four princess legions were burned to death, few were killed, and the fragmented corpses should also be splashed everywhere, but there is nothing in the lion court at the moment!
At this time, no matter how stupid she is, she understands that she is in an ambush!
"Retreat, retreat!" she shouted.
