Shi Le actually wanted to send 200,000 troops to round up Long Chen, who only had 500 cavalry. Privy Councilor Lu Qichang found it incredible.
"No, a lion needs all his strength to fight a rabbit, not to mention that Long Chengen is an old fox!"
"I ordered the prince to immediately raise an army of two hundred thousand, and I will personally surround and kill him!"
Long Chen ran to the hinterland of Xixia alone. How could Shi Le let go of such a good opportunity?
Ma Fang immediately left the palace to deliver the order.
Shi Le was so happy that he rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "This opportunity must not be missed before it comes again. This time we must kill Long Chengen! As long as Long Chengen is dead, Dongzhou will be like an eagle with broken wings!"
Privy Councilor Lu Qichang nodded and said: "Yes, Long Cheng'en was seriously injured some time ago, and the entire Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in chaos. As soon as he came, the battlefield situation immediately reversed. This guy is indeed the pillar of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Shi Le smiled happily and said: "Yes, that's right. This time the king will use the whole country to round up this guy!"
When the crown prince Shi Haoran received the order, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that Long Chen would dare to go deep alone.
He agreed with Shi Le's opinion that as long as he could kill Long Chen, he could pay any price.
Soon, 200,000 Shile cavalrymen headed toward Jin County to kill.
A huge encircling net was thrown towards Long Chen.
....
Red Rock Temple.
Kongji and Deshan stood on a hilltop, looking in the direction of Jade Buddha Pass.
"It's strange, how many days has it been since Long Chengen arrived, but why hasn't he seen any action?"
Monk Deshan felt strange that Long Chen had made no new moves since the last raid.
Monk Kongji said: "This guy is full of tricks. The more he is like this, the more careful we must be."
These days, Monk Kongji racked his brains, trying to use strategies to break into the Jade Buddha Pass, but he still couldn't think of a good way.
The cities on both sides of the pass echo the Jade Buddha Pass, so it is easy to be attacked on the flanks if you attack rashly.
Last time, relying on the advantage of generals, Kong Ji and Deshan led troops to attack Jade Buddha Pass at the same time. They sent troops to besiege the small town before injuring Emperor Lingyi.
But the Jade Buddha Pass was built too solidly. When Kongji and Deshan went up, the soldiers couldn't get through, and they had to retreat in the end.
"Senior brother, do you think...will Long Chengen not be here?"
Deshan had a sudden thought, but Monk Kongji was trembling in his heart and said, "It's possible!"
After Zhenguo Temple was attacked, Kong Ji always suspected that Long Chen was leading the team, but he was not sure.
Because Long Chen was the commander-in-chief of the Zhou Dynasty, the army faced off at Jade Buddha Pass, but the commander-in-chief went around to the rear of Xixia. This was not in line with common sense.
But Long Chen always went against the routine in doing things, maybe he really rushed to the rear.
"Hong Zheng!"
Disciple Hong Zheng came up and Kong Ji said: "I order you to lead fifty thousand troops and attack immediately!"
Hong Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked: "Uncle, is it appropriate to attack... now?"
Hong Zheng knew that Zhixian had been killed and Long Chen was at Jade Buddha Pass, so he asked him to attack, as he might not be able to return.
"Go if you are told!"
Deshan scolded.
Hong Zheng did not dare to ask any more questions, so he immediately ordered fifty thousand troops to attack Jade Buddha Pass.
At this time, a monk rode a fast horse and rushed up the hill, panting and reporting: "Uncle, Master, something happened. The Iron Kites who were chasing him were almost wiped out. The brothers who escaped said that the one who attacked from behind was Long Chengen.
!”
Kongji and Deshan were stunned at the same time.
"It's really not here!"
Monk Kongji was surprised and happy.
Monk Deshan said happily: "Brother, let's attack Jade Buddha Pass quickly and take advantage of Long Chengen's absence to defeat it in one go!"
Kong Ji smiled and said: "Junior brother is confused. Long Chengen only has 500 cavalry. Of course we kill Long Chengen first and then attack Jade Buddha Pass."
"As long as Long Chengen is killed, the Jade Buddha Pass will be guarded only by Emperor Lingyi, so it will be easy to break through the pass."
"After this incident, I have seen clearly that the foundation of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is Long Chengen. As long as he dies, the vitality of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be severely damaged and the country may be destroyed!"
"Junior brother, you are here to guard. As long as you hold on, I will immediately lead 50,000 troops to round him up!"
Deshan said in surprise: "Brother, why do you want so many?"
Fifty thousand versus five hundred, a hundred times the strength, this is too exaggerated.
Kong Ji laughed and said: "No more, no more. To kill Long Chengen, we must use superior force, also to prevent this guy from escaping!"
The interior of Xixia is vast, and a mere five hundred people can sneak in anywhere and run away easily.
Another point is that if Long Chen fled north, he would probably escape into the grassland.
"This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Monk Kongji was overjoyed and immediately rode back to Chiyan Temple. Hong Zheng had just prepared his troops.
"Lead the troops and follow me immediately!"
Kongji didn't go in either, and just let Tie Yaozi follow him.
Hong Zheng said in surprise: "Master, do you want to tackle the problem personally?"
Kongji smiled and said: "No, if you don't want to fight at the Jade Buddha Pass, come with me to kill Long Cheng'en!"
Hong Zheng was surprised and asked: "Isn't Long Chengen in the pass?"
Kong Ji shook his head and said with a smile: "No, this guy is running around in the hinterland of my country, chasing me to kill him!"
Hong Zheng was overjoyed and immediately led his troops to pursue Kong Ji to the northwest.
....
Quarry City.
Wu Chuchu helped Qingyue into the room, and Wu Xiangyun immediately brought the medicine box.
"Whose cold arrow?"
Wu Xiangyun picked up the scissors, cut open his sleeve, and saw his arm that had been shot through.
Qingyue took a look at the wound and said, "Xue Ze, this guy's arrow skills are very accurate, I'm afraid he's on par with Jiali."
Wu Xiangyun cleaned the wound, picked up a glass of wine, and said, "Be patient!"
Strong wine was poured into the wound, Qingyue's cheeks turned red from the pain, Wu Chuchu hugged Qingyue to comfort her.
Wu Xiangyun brought gauze and wrapped it, then helped Qingyue lie down to rest.
"It would be nice if adults were here."
Qingyue sighed.
Xue Ze's archery skills were very powerful to them, and they would be a target when they encountered Long Chen.
"I don't know how you are doing, sir."
Wu Xiangyun's face turned gloomy, thinking about Long Chen in his heart.
When we set off, Long Chen was still lying in the Imperial Hospital, wrapped up like a rice dumpling.
After arriving at Caishi City, the Nanliang army besieged them, and there was no communication between inside and outside the city. They didn't know what happened to Long Chen.
"You have a good rest, I will help the princess."
Wu Chuchu went up to the city wall again with a simple knife. There were many corpses piled up outside the city, and there were also many corpses and wounded soldiers lying inside the city.
Di Luoxi was wearing silver armor, the sword in her hand was full of blood, and her shirt was also full of blood stains.
Xuanyi patrolled on horseback, asking everyone to rest quickly and wait for the next wave of attacks.
"Li Chengdao is crazy, he attacked three times a day!"
Wu Chuchu didn't understand why Nanliang suddenly launched a fierce attack, regardless of the cost.
Di Luoxi shook her head and said, "I don't know, maybe I want to force Linjiang City to send troops for reinforcements."
Wu Chuchu sighed: "I'm afraid Gongsun Ming himself won't be able to protect himself."
Outside Linjiang City, Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai, the Five Tiger Generals of Nanliang, were blocking the city with hundreds of thousands of troops. It was impossible for Gongsun Ming to reinforce Caishi City.
"Maybe...just want to break through the quarry city."
Di Luoxi also couldn't figure it out. With no outside news coming in, she couldn't make a judgment.
"Get ready to fight, who cares!"
Di Luoxi was too lazy to think about it. She took advantage of the break to grab some bread and water, ate it and rested quickly.
Outside Linjiang City.
Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai looked at the city, where the empress's bird flag was fluttering in the wind.
"Do you think the empress is in the city?"
Hu Feiyang stroked his beard and asked suspiciously.
Qiu Kuohai shook his head slightly and said: "I heard that the empress has arrived, but she has never come out. There is a fierce fighting in Caishi City, but she is indifferent. How strange!"
