When he heard that Guitei sent people to attack, Long Chen was very happy.
This illustrates a problem, that is, the ghost tire did not guess in advance that he wanted to cross the river with an iron rope.
Without knowing it in advance, there is no need to use the lake mouth as a bait, and there is no need to worry about being attacked elsewhere.
When he stood on the top of the mountain and saw Feng Erniang and others arriving with 50,000 forbidden troops, Long Chen even felt a little funny.
What's the point of sending troops like this to such a terrain?
Wu Jian frowned and said, "Isn't this army just a bait?"
It was obviously impossible to destroy the iron rope, but he still rushed forward. Wu Jian suspected that this was done deliberately.
Gongsun Linglong looked at the water at the bottom of the mountain and said, "I dare not go down into such deep water. I am a landlubber."
She has been active in the north and has never been in the water. She dare not go down.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Whether it is a bait or not, we will find out later."
East.
When Feng Erniang led 50,000 imperial troops through the water and arrived near the mouth of the lake, the rising water had already covered the hooves of the war horses.
The Imperial Guards behind them complained endlessly and shouted: "National Master, we can't go any further. How can we fight in such deep water!"
The soldiers behind him stopped and stopped moving forward.
They were cold and tired now, and they didn't want to fight at all.
Xuanjizi turned around and cursed sternly: "The Holy Son has ordered us to destroy the iron rope, but how dare you disobey!"
Feng Erniang looked at the exhausted Imperial Guards, but she didn't say anything.
She was not from here, so she didn't expect the lake to rise so much.
There are still several hundred meters to the lake entrance. The water is deeper if you go further, even if you ride a horse, you will be submerged and cannot go any further.
"Chief escort, what should I do?"
Xuan Jizi looked at Feng Erniang. He knew in his heart that this task could not be completed.
There was still smoke coming out of the top of the mountain. It was obvious that someone was guarding and protecting it. If Long Chen was guarding it himself, they would go there and die.
Feng Erniang looked at the top of the mountain and was in a dilemma.
A gust of wind blew, dark clouds gathered, the sunset glow disappeared, and it looked like it would continue to rain.
"Chief escort?"
Xuanjizi urged Feng Erniang to make a decision.
Feng Erniang thought for a moment and said, "The three of us will step into the water to at least have a clear look at the situation."
"If we go back and ask questions and don't know anything, we won't be able to explain it."
The attendant nodded slightly and said, "I agree."
Xuanjizi cursed in his heart: What a fart, you will die!
"The head escort is right, then go over and have a look."
Xuanjizi didn't object.
Feng Erniang turned around and shouted: "Crossbowmen, prepare! If there is a large army rushing down from the top of the mountain, fire arrows with all your strength!"
The crossbowman moved forward slowly. The bow was soaked in water. It was estimated that it could only be used once and would be discarded when he returned.
Feng Erniang and the other three flew up from their horses and rushed towards the mouth of the lake through the water.
On the top of the mountain.
Long Chen saw the three people flying over and said with a smile: "How dare they ignore me?"
Wu Jian found it funny: "Are they tired of living?"
Long Chen held a wooden gun and said with a smile: "You guys wait at the top of the mountain, I'll go down there."
With a leap, Long Chen lowered his body, lightly passed through the woods, and flew towards the three of them.
Feng Erniang was at the front, followed by her entourage, and Xuanjizi was at the back, deliberately keeping the distance between them.
Xuanjizi guessed that there must be someone on the mountain, so he delayed deliberately.
As you approach the mouth of the lake, you can hear the roar of water.
Feng Erniang saw the iron pillars on the stone wall with iron ropes nailed to them.
"That's it!"
Feng Erniang was overjoyed and wanted to fly over, but suddenly a shadow appeared on the mountain and stabbed Feng Erniang with a wooden spear.
Long Chen launched a sudden attack, and Feng Erniang was not unprepared. She blew out a few poisonous arrows from the blowgun in her hand, stopped immediately, turned around and ran back.
Feng Erniang had fought with the empress, and Long Chen knew Feng Erniang's methods. When the poisonous arrow came, Long Chen waved out a burst of dragon energy, knocking away the invisible poisonous needle, and stabbed Feng Erniang in the back of the heart with the wooden spear.
Feng Erniang ran back, but her entourage had already arrived, stabbing Long Chen with a long wooden sword in her hand.
"kill!"
Long Chen roared angrily, unleashed his spear, and swung the wooden sword away. The two of them got close to each other, and Long Chen punched the follower, who flew upside down and fell into the water.
When he looked up again, Xuanjizi was running faster than Feng Erniang.
Long Chen walked on the water and continued to chase Feng Erniang.
When Feng Erniang saw that her followers were beheaded as soon as they met, she was even more afraid of fighting. She fled back to the army at full speed, shouting: "Fire arrows!"
When the Imperial Guard saw Long Chen, they were also frightened. The crossbowmen fired a wave of random arrows. Long Chen waved out a blast of true energy and continued to chase Feng Erniang.
Just as she was about to catch up, Feng Erniang dodged, plunged into the soldiers and disappeared.
"Gone?"
Long Chen was surprised, this Feng Erniang dived into the water?
No, last time she was in Xianhe City, she used a substitute. This time she changed her costume again and disguised herself as a forbidden soldier.
When Long Chen arrived, the imperial army was in chaos and turned to retreat.
It started to rain and night fell. Long Chen rushed into the forbidden army and killed them randomly before returning to the top of the mountain.
It was already dark by this time.
Gongsun Linglong watched from the top of the mountain and exclaimed: "If we ambush in the east, all these tens of thousands of forbidden troops will die."
Gan Zhen said: "It is too dangerous to ambush in the east. If there are few people, it is useless. If there are too many people, we will be easily attacked."
The east and west are not connected. If troops are stationed in the east, Nanliang will not be able to support it when it launches an attack. It is unwise to do so.
Long Chen said: "Don't pay attention. It's dark. If they march like this, most of them will be drowned."
Just now, Long Chen rushed in and killed them randomly. The purpose was to disrupt the formation and turn them into headless flies, scurrying around. It would be best to rush into the lake and drown.
"Go back."
Long Chen took the three of them back to the west cave.
Yingfeng saw the battle from a distance just now, but couldn't see clearly.
"They are indeed coming towards the mouth of the lake."
Yingfeng was a little lucky that the empress discovered it in time.
Long Chen said: "Tell the Holy Lord that it is true that Guitai sent people to sabotage this time. In other words, Guitai did not know about it in advance."
"It's understandable that those ministers didn't say it because Li Chengdao didn't say it."
"But why Li Chengdao knew it and didn't say it, I don't understand."
The leaders are Feng Erniang and the others. Xuanjizi can be called cannon fodder, but the follower and Feng Erniang are definitely not.
Especially Feng Erniang, she is now the spy of Gui Fei and cannot be sent here to die.
Therefore, Long Chen concluded that the ghost fetus had not been thought of beforehand, and Li Chengdao indeed did not say anything.
Yingfeng nodded slightly and asked: "Then..."
Long Chen said: "Let the brothers go back and return overnight. Although the march is hard, it will be raining here."
When we returned to Xianhe City, there were houses and tents, but there was only rainwater here.
Yingfeng nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll go back now, please be careful."
Yingfeng and Wu Jian immediately led the troops back.
...
The heavy rain continued, and Feng Erniang mingled with the forbidden troops and slowly groped back.
She is half-ghost and can see through the darkness without stepping into a puddle, unlike other Forbidden Soldiers.
The chaotic team was getting smaller and smaller, some people were washed away by the current, and some stepped into the pit and drowned.
Feng Erniang kept scolding her, but the sound of rain covered her voice, and the imperial army had no intention of listening to her nonsense. Bayi Chinese Website
When we returned to Linhu City, it was almost dawn.
