Jiang Chen patiently explained to everyone the importance of sticking to the Nanling Mountain Road, and explained the pros and cons, so that they could quickly unify their thoughts and arouse their fighting spirit.

But some people still shouted at him: "Can't we go south?"

"If Bei'an City cannot be defended, we will retreat south. There will always be a place that can accept us. At least we will have to wait until we get the support from the imperial court before we fight back."

The opinions held by this person actually represent the true thoughts of many people. They all know that the Beiyan people are powerful and they are brave, fearless and murderous in battle.

Under such circumstances, why bother to fight them to the death? It is better to avoid the edge temporarily and wait for them to lose all their energy and get strong support, and then maybe we can regain the lost ground in one go.

But Jiang Chen scoffed at this naive idea.

He raised his hand and pointed at the dozens of cold corpses lying on the ground, and asked the man: "Are you willing to end up like them?"

"Escape? Only a coward would choose to turn his back on the enemy. Even if you really escape south from Bei'an City, can you outrun the iron hooves of Beiyan's army?"

Under Jiang Chen's powerful rhetorical question, the man was speechless for a moment and lowered his head silently in embarrassment.

"There is an open plain area to the south of Bei'an. The horses of the Beiyan army can give full play to their huge advantage. Once they are caught up, you will be slaughtered like a flock of sheep, and your end will never be worse than these people who died.

How much better.”

"Look at them again. Which one of them is not your Paoze brother? Besides, abandoning Bei'an City is tantamount to abandoning the defenseless people and leaving them to the brutal and murderous Beiyan people. Do you have a good conscience?"

Jiang Chen scolded him sternly, and the man didn't dare to say anything anymore.

The damn Beiyan people actually sneaked into the military camp and killed so many compatriots who were as close as brothers. How can you tolerate this tone?

The Beiyan people are really getting more and more arrogant. If they really run away, they will definitely be ridiculed by the enemy until they are completely covered with blood, and they will never be able to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives.

Inspired by Jiang Chen's words, the flame in everyone's hearts seemed to be faintly ignited.

At this time, Chang Da stood up and asked: "Master Jiang, now that we are all on the same boat, what should we do?"

"Anyway, if the Nanling Mountain Road falls, I have no confidence that I can defend Bei'an City. When the emperor punishes me, I will definitely bear the brunt of being prosecuted by military law. That would be a shameful death. I can't afford to lose face."

"In this case, it's better to give it a try here and be worthy of the people behind you!"

Unexpectedly, Chang Da actually said something very sensible at this time. Seeing his statement, other soldiers also nodded in agreement.

Although these words may sound a bit lacking in confidence, after all, they were spoken from the bottom of his heart. Jiang Chen nodded towards Chang Da with great satisfaction.

Yes, if the Beiyan people pass through the Nanling Mountain Road, and then the 50,000 troops attack Bei'an City, then everyone will have a dead end, but if they are blocked at all levels on the mountain road, the opponent's numerical advantage will not be used.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen ordered the entire army to prepare for war. All ordnance, equipment, and personnel were to be mobilized to the entrance of the Nanling Mountain Road to be on standby. Once the Beiyan people appeared in the mountain road, they would use all methods to kill all the enemies.

Die here.

Without further ado, everyone got into their positions and started actively preparing for the battle.

The atmosphere around them was extremely tense. Although they were stationed in the most dangerous place, these people never really thought that one day they would face a challenge from a powerful enemy.

While everyone was preparing seriously, Jiang Chen pulled Chang Da all the way into the Nanling Mountain Road. He also ordered people to drag the bodies of Zhuang Ping and the Beiyan spy over.

"I understand the principle of attacking halfway across the country, but are there too few of us?"

Faced with Chang Da's question, Jiang Chen confidently said, "That's enough. There are rocks falling halfway up the hillside. We just need to see the right moment and roll the rocks down to kill the enemy."

"This also declares the formal war with the Beiyan people. Everyone must share the same hatred. No one should take chances. If we cannot stop the enemy, we will die here together."

When Jiang Chen mentioned the word death, his demeanor was unusually calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

Chang Da asked: "Master Jiang, have you been on the battlefield before?"

"I haven't fought for Daqian yet. Although I have fought against the Beiyan people many times before, I could only fight alone. This is the first time I have brought everyone together like today."

This answer made Chang Da feel a little numb, but what he didn't know was that Jiang Chen was only referring to things in this life.

When it comes to leading troops into battle to kill enemies, he did a lot of it when he was the strongest mercenary in his previous life. He also led a powerful combat team to directly overthrow a dictatorship with a powerful military.

At that time, they launched a surprise attack under the cover of night. Before the country could fully activate its war machine, their command system was disintegrated, and even the leaders and military chiefs were brought under control.

This was also the battle that made Jiang Chen famous. After that, he became the most powerful mercenary king. Everyone in the world knew how terrifying he and his fighting team were.

Having said this, Jiang Chen has not never thought about forming a combat team in Daqian to take orders from him. However, there are currently very few candidates who are qualified to serve as members of this team, and he needs a very strict selection process. OK.

When everything was ready, Jiang Chen, Chang Da and the other thirteen people quietly waited on the hillside for the enemy to appear.

After almost four hours passed, the night in the sky gradually dissipated, and a ray of morning light gradually emitted from the distant clouds.

"Look, the enemy is coming! It's the damn Beiyan people. They really came from the Nanling Mountain Road!"

Someone issued a warning with both excitement and nervousness, but Jiang Chen quickly reacted from the state of closing his eyes to rest, his sharp eyes always remaining sharp and calm.

He looked far down the mountain, and sure enough, there was a team of Beiyan people approaching here through the winding and rugged mountain road. What surprised Jiang Chen was that Chang Da was still sleeping soundly at this time, and he would listen to him from time to time. Read Yucui's name from your mouth.

How long has this been, and I’m still having an erotic dream!

Jiang Chen slapped him unceremoniously. Chang Da was as alert as if he were facing a formidable enemy. When he realized that it was Jiang Chen who slapped him, he reacted in embarrassment.

He looked in the direction of Jiang Chen's gaze, and his whole heart suddenly went cold.
