There were torches on the city wall, illuminating the surrounding area very brightly.
Li Tianyu looked at the thin man in silver armor, his brows furrowed into a deep "Chuan" pattern: "Who are you?"
"Military advisor Jiang Lan!" Jiang Lan didn't care who Li Tianyu was, and started fighting with his gun.
Li Tianyu was a little confused. Before he could tell himself his home, he was picked up by a gun and rolled down the ice-covered city wall.
Jiang Lan was also confused. Isn't this the general of Beichi?...So inexperienced?
My own ‘Jiang’s Gun’ is definitely not that fierce, probably because of what the princess said – most villains die because they talk too much.
The wall of Tiger Leap City was very high. After a lot of bumps, Li Tianyu was finally caught by Li Yi before landing. Li Yi looked at Li Tianyu's face with a bruised nose and swollen face, and it was really terrible...
"Emperor...Uncle Emperor..." Li Tianyu himself had Qinggong, so he wouldn't have fallen so badly.
The current situation is completely misled by Jiang Lan's "self-reported family". It is rare for a military advisor to show off his martial arts skills, but Jiang Lan looks like a weak scholar, which is very confusing. Who would have thought that he would be so powerful?
One shot sent someone flying...
"What's next?" Li Yi stood under the city wall with support.
"What do you think, Uncle Emperor?" Li Tianyu suffered the biggest setback in his life, and now he wanted to hold Li Yi in his arms and cry.
"Before leaving, Your Majesty only asked me to protect His Highness' safety and not to discuss military affairs." Li Yi lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the resentment in his eyes.
He has always understood that he is just a knife in the emperor's hand. He can use it to assassinate enemies, or he can use it to protect the people he wants to protect.
Li Yi never minded his status as a 'tool'. What made him unhappy was that he had volunteered to become a 'sword', but the emperor had to put shackles on the sword. Even if he was a 'tool', he could not be free.
tool.
Since His Majesty the Emperor has no affection at all, I, a 'tool' that is incapable of affection, can stab him mercilessly.
As the saying goes, 'if generals are away, military orders will be ignored', Li Tianyu felt that he, the emperor's uncle, was too pedantic.
Li Tianyu looked at the 'defeated general' in the fire and felt frustrated: "Retreat and station yourself by the Hulan River!"
Li Yi raised his head and glanced at the already dim sky. If he guessed correctly, the Northwest Army might have a back-up plan.
Seeing that the Beichi Army began to flee, Jiang Lan sent his deputy general to pursue him.
Li Tianyu was riding on his horse and could see the Hulan River in the distance. The pursuers were coming from behind. In this case, if the army crossed the river, the casualties would be even greater.
Li Tianyu let out a breath and decided to imitate the ancients' "fight to the last ditch": "Stop, form an array!"
Li Tianyu had just formed a formation and saw only a few thousand pursuers. Although the 70,000 wolf cavalry he led suffered a lot of losses, they still had an advantage in numbers.
Li Tianyu was overjoyed. Since he was rushing to die, he would give them a ride: "Kill!"
The Beichi Army had been beaten too much today, and they were also very angry. Seeing the opportunity for more people to bully fewer people, they rushed forward one by one as if they had been beaten to death. Suddenly, there were shouts of killing, and the sounds of clashing weapons merged into one.
, it looks so painful!
Just as Li Tianyu was laughing proudly, he suddenly heard the soldiers exclaiming: "Your Majesty, we are surrounded!"
Li Tianyu looked around and was stunned - the Northwest Army was outflanking them from behind and from the left and right wings, and had surrounded them. Artillery was also deployed around the trapped formation. It seemed that they had ambush here in advance!
Li Yi held Li Tianyu's collar and flew all the way. After a few breaths, he finally broke out of the encirclement of the Northwest Army.
Li Tianyu looked at the soldiers who were still fighting, and looked at Li Yi in surprise: "Emperor...Uncle Emperor...We are leaving like this, what will happen to the army?"
Li Yi pondered for a moment: "I only care about His Majesty's instructions...I have not considered this...do I want to send you back again?"
In the situation just now, dying in battle with the army was considered a destination. Now that he had broken through the siege and returned to the dangerous situation where he would die... Li Tianyu could not bring himself to do this.
"Do you want to go back?" Li Yi said sharply, "If you don't make a decision, you'll be late!"
"But, if you just leave like this, you won't be able to explain to your father when you go back." Li Tian looked at Li Yi in confusion.
"Do you want me to help you?" Li Yi looked at the sword in his hand and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes... yes..." Li Tianyu closed his eyes, as if he was ready to die!
A sneer appeared on the corner of Li Yi's lips, he raised his sword and lowered it, piercing Li Tianyu's shoulder blade. The strike was so cruel that the tip of the sword pierced the armor and was exposed from the chest.
Li Yi drew out his long sword neatly. It was a sword that was as sharp as iron and had no trace of blood on the blade.
Li Tianyu knew that the emperor's uncle tried his best to avoid important organs in order to save him, but this position was so damn painful that he only felt his eyes going black for a while! In the end, he couldn't hold on and fainted.
Li Yi carried and pulled off the hem of his clothes, briefly bandaged Li Tianyu, then carried him to Hongyan City on the other side of the Hulan River.
The Beichi Army lost its leader, and the morale of the army was immediately in chaos. The Northwest Army only shouted a few surrenders but refused to kill, and captured tens of thousands of prisoners of war.
Vice General Xue and Vice General Chen were Si Haochen's confidants. Looking at such prisoners of war, they were a little worried for their own generalissimo.
"Chen Ran, you said it's hard enough for the Generalissimo to support our Northwest Army. With the addition of tens of thousands of mouths, the Generalissimo won't be destitute, right?" Xue Gang scratched his head, "Otherwise, let's kill them all.
?”
The Beichi Army, who had just been disarmed, immediately tightened their grip. They surrendered too hastily!
Chen Ran thought for a moment, and then said loudly: "A few days ago, Lu Qiaojiang led his scouts and discovered two more coal mines near Liangjie Mountain.
If these prisoners of war are willing to go mining, keep them. If they don’t want to work, they will be killed at any time!”
"Then let's just send them to the mines, so we don't have to go back and forth." Xue Gang heard that the wind was raining, and he quickly called the soldiers and escorted the prisoners of war to Liangjie Mountain.
When these prisoners of war heard that they were going to mine, they all refused in their hearts. But there were only two ways in front of them - one was to mine, the other was to die. There are some people with backbone who would rather die than surrender, but there are more people who want to survive.
.
Jiang Lan stood on the tall tower, looking at the signal smoke of "Great Victory" rising in the distance, and a pleasant smile appeared on the corner of his lips - the first battle he led the Northwest Army to fight, he did not give the master and the
Shame on Shangwu Sect!
At this time, the Beichi Army that attacked Hui Lai City was also defeated. Qin Mo looked at the tens of thousands of prisoners of war, his eyes shining. The princess had said before that "infrastructure" would be built on several important islands leading to Zhongzhou.
Qin Mo didn't know what "infrastructure" was, but according to his understanding, it was to build several large strongholds. The project of building roads and buildings was not small, and a large number of laborers were needed, so Beichi sent them!
