Chapter Eighty-Nine: The War Begins
Spring arrives, the snow melts, and forces on all sides are ready to move, some preparing to defend, others ready to attack targets that have already been prepared.
The Xiao family does not have a holy realm, but it occupies as many as thirty-two cities, and they are ready to attack the Leng family with a holy realm, if they don't have hole cards, then even ordinary people don't believe it.
Now that the Leng family's purge has spread, the reputation of wantonly slaughtering his subordinates has caused the prestige of the Leng family to plummet, if it weren't for the Holy Realm Ancestor, it would have been divided and eaten long ago, if the Xiao family really has the hole card to deal with the Holy Realm, then the situation of the Leng family will be in danger.
After the Leng family received the news, they immediately asked Yun Xuan for help, after all, they would put themselves into a trough because of Yun Xuan and Ling Xiyue's requirements, as long as Yun Xuan didn't want a completely dilapidated Leng family, he should do his part.
In response to the Leng family's plea for help, Ling Xiyue restored a letter instead: [Nothing, everything is as usual. 】
Leng Lanqiu is a smart person, and when she received this letter, she understood what Ling Xiyue meant, she wanted the Leng family to pretend that nothing had happened, and everything was left to her to deal with.
Leng Lanqiu didn't know where Ling Xiyue got the confidence, but since Ling Xiyue said so, there must be her reason.
At this time, three thousand forest patrol guards equipped with stacked weapons were ready to go, all of them in silver battle armor, riding a unified black war horse, but equipped with these various weapons, led by Ling Yi, and Ling Xiyue went out with the army.
As for Jiang Ming, he hid in the shadows to protect Ling Xiyue.
"Xiyue, are you sure that there is nothing wrong with the induction!At such a distance, can you really completely control the other party's position?" Although he trusts Ling Xiyue very much, this is a newly developed ability after all, and there are precedents for mistakes before, Jiang Ming can't help but worry about Ling Xiyue.
Ling Xiyue said confidently: "There is no problem, duckweed is only a minority after all, I have already tried it, and this induction is no problem for most people." Although it may be wrong to judge the distance from each other, the breath of their sixty thousand people combined is more obvious to me than the moon in the night. ”
Jiang Ming could only believe Ling Xiyue when he heard this.
In order not to startle the snake, Ling Xiyue didn't even send spies to find the way, nor did she go to clean up the spies on the march, but just marched at full speed, trying to run faster than the other party's spies.
This kind of marching method is very unreasonable for a large ambush, and Ling Yi is also strongly opposed, but Ling Xiyue forcibly used his power to suppress all the objections.
A ruler who is determined to go his own way will not be liked, but it is often the one who is determined to bring victory.
The 60,000 troops of the Xiao family gathered on the border of the Leng family's forces, and these 60,000 people were not those miscellaneous troops sent to the border battlefield as "logistics supplies", but the real elite, and the real liquid realm was only at the bottom here.
Xiao Xuance, the commander of the army, was a little puzzled, and ordered the army to stop guarding: "Didn't the Leng family react at all?
"Report to the general, the Leng family really didn't react at all, only a letter I don't know where it was delivered, it should be a distress letter. A scout reported.
Xiao Xuance said: "The Leng family is not a waste, if you can't inquire about the movements of our army, I still believe it, but I don't even have the most basic precautions, do you believe it?"
"Big brother, the Leng family is now undergoing a major purge, more than half of their loyal subordinates have been sacrificed, and the rest are all in danger, only a few diehards with brain problems remain, and it is normal for the intelligence agency to be paralyzed. A big man next to him said indifferently.
"The Leng family cut off their arms and even destroyed their ears and eyes, there must be a reason that we don't know. Xiao Xuance still frowned, "Anyway, it's too strange that the Leng family doesn't even have an army." ”
"Why do you want to do so much, if they have an ambush, we won't be able to fight?Big brother, are you sure we can bear the consequences of disobeying that person's will?" a middle-aged man in a golden robe snorted coldly, "Our Xiao family has nineteen realms, but there is no existence of a holy realm, and we can only be driven by people like cattle and horses." ”
Xiao Xuance was silent for a moment, and said: "Although we can't disobey that person's will, it's good to reduce some losses. ”
"No, if you slow down the march, won't that give the Leng family time to assemble?"
"If the Leng family could really gather an army, it would have started to assemble a long time ago. The current Leng family is either paralyzed to the point that they can't even deal with the enemy normally, or they have been prepared for a long time, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. Otherwise, would you think that a family leader with the existence of the Holy Realm would not defend against external enemies at this time, but would continue to rectify the interior?" Xiao Xuan said.
"However, after slowing down the march, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain to him!" someone said slowly.
Xiao Xuance sneered: "Could it be that our value can't even compare to that person's preferences? Then why would that adult borrow our strength to deal with the Leng family? I can't even see my own value clearly, no wonder you will be the first to go out when you compete for the head of the family!"
"You ......" the reprimanded man looked angry, but after all, he still did not say anything to refute it.
Xiao Xuance suddenly sighed again and said, "Xuanyan, I don't say this to despise you, but to leave a hope for the future of the Xiao family." In this troubled world, although strength is the most important, when we do not have enough strength, we must prepare for the worst. ”
Xiao Xuanyan was stunned, he didn't expect Xiao Xuance to suddenly say this.
"The Xiao family has no holy realm, and in the face of the strong, they can only be slaughtered by others, if the Xiao family is really in trouble, I, as the head of the Xiao family, must be someone else's first goal, and I can't run away, so I need you to leave a legacy for the Xiao family. If you want to do this, you don't need to show extraordinary talent, but you must see the situation clearly, otherwise the survival of the Xiao family is only a thought. ”
Xiao Xuance sighed, "After all, we are brothers, brothers are outside the wall to resist humiliation, if there is really such a day, the future of the Xiao family is in your hands." ”
Xiao Xuanyan's eyes were a little astringent, he didn't expect that his brother, who had been fighting with him, would have such a high realm, in comparison, his behavior of deliberately embarrassing him in order to fight with his brother was too petty.
Although he didn't say it, he had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter what, he couldn't lag behind his brother, and if his brother could sacrifice for the family, he could too.
Finally got this idiot done...... Xiao Xuance said disdainfully in his heart, his younger brother only knows how to practice martial arts, and his talent is obviously not good, but he actually stepped into the virtual realm almost at the same time as him, and often disagrees with him, if it weren't for his brain problem, it is easy to be used, he would have sacrificed him a long time ago.
Now is a good opportunity, he doesn't believe that the Leng family will be indifferent to their army, and there will definitely be a reaction, if there is a danger to his life, the first one to sacrifice is Xiao Xuanyan.
"Report! A small force is coming to us eight miles to the east!"
At this time, a scout came to report urgently.
"Bastard, the enemy is only eight miles away from us, and you only found out what you were doing before!" Xiao Xuanyan scolded angrily.
"How many of them are there?" Xiao Xuance asked calmly.
"It seems, there are only three thousand. The scout replied somewhat uncertainly.
"I actually found their traces so closely, it seems that the enemy is not easy, although the number of the other party is very small, but the lion fights the rabbit still needs all his strength, pass the order, the whole army will change formation, and prepare for war with all its might!" Xiao Xuance quickly ordered.
"Patriarch Xiao, the transformation of the formation of the whole army is too complicated, the opponent is only three thousand people, as long as the people on the left flank can be settled, why let the entire army be in danger!"
60,000 elite guards with 3,000 people, or the whole army on alert, not to mention the humiliating things, the blow to morale alone is a difficult problem to estimate.
"Okay, since you don't agree to the whole army on guard, then please go and find out how many Void Realms, how many Dan Dao, how many archers, which force they belong to, and what tactics they are good at?" Xiao Xuance said.
The illusion of persuasion immediately stopped.
