At the canyon camp, Zhang Qian, Wu Chuchu, and Wu Xiangyun looked at the Red Flame Army in the north and ordered the crossbows and divine arm bows to be ready.
"No one is allowed to go out except to shoot arrows inside."
Zhang Qian knew that Jing Tianlie and Jing Feng had high cultivation levels and were no match for each other in a one-on-one fight, and they were not prepared for a duel.
At the mouth of the valley, Jing Feng led more than a hundred elite Red Flame Army troops and quickly rushed over on horseback.
Zhang Qian calculated the distance and shouted: "Let go!"
At the five-meter-wide valley entrance, more than a dozen bed crossbows were fired at the same time from different heights, and the divine arm bows were fired at the same time.
Jing Feng heard the whining sound and knew that the giant arrow from the bed crossbow was coming, so he hurriedly waved the crescent halberd. ??
boom!
puff!
The Red Flame Army beside them screamed and their horses fell to the ground.
The giant arrows of the bed crossbow are so powerful that they can penetrate both men and horses.
Jing Feng's scalp was numb and he wanted to rush into the camp. As long as he entered, no one would be his opponent.
Woohoo.
Two giant arrows flew towards Jing Feng, who was so frightened that he hurriedly raised his crescent halberd to block them.
The giant arrow was shot, and the crescent halberd was almost broken by the shock. The giant arrow grazed his ribs. Although the armor did not penetrate, the huge force felt like it would break the bones.
"withdraw!"
Jingfeng had no choice. Even with the Martial Emperor's cultivation, there was nothing he could do in the face of powerful crossbows and giant arrows.
What's more, if Zhang Qian's three king realms attack at the same time, plus Fang Zi's crossbow arm bow, Jing Feng will not be able to fight easily.
More than a hundred people rushed forward, but only six came back, and the others were shot to death.
"Father, the place is too narrow, and you will be a target if you go in."
Jingfeng was very embarrassed.
Jing Tianlie looked at the narrow mouth of the valley and could no longer think of any good strategies.
"Camp where you are!"
Jing Tianlie said coldly.
The soldiers had no choice but to camp outside the mouth of the valley.
Sitting in the tent, Jing Tianlie looked gloomy and stared blankly at the oil lamp on the table.
"Father, are we just waiting to die like this?"
Jing Feng asked reluctantly.
From childhood to adulthood, Jing Tianlie was an invincible hero in his mind.
r>
At this time, Jing Tianlie was like a veteran at the end of his rope.
"Long Cheng'en."
Jing Tianlie closed his eyes and sighed.
"Have a good rest tonight, attack Yanmen Pass tomorrow, and fight to the death!"
Jing Tianlie said something tragic.
The roads in front and behind are blocked, and the only hope is to break through Yanmen Pass.
The price will definitely be high, and the Red Flame Army may face annihilation, but he must rush out.
My mother is still in Xingqing City, and so is my wife. If he can't go back, everyone will die.
Ordinary people can go to other countries to hide their names and start over again. He is different. He is Jingtian Lie and has nowhere to go.
Jing Feng saw Jing Tianlie's determination and said no more. He left the tent, took the healing medicine, and went to sleep after eating.
The mood of sadness and despair spread among the Red Flame Army, and everyone gathered around the bonfire without talking.
Yanmen Pass.
Long Chen slept until the sun went down and then got up. Outside, Zhang Man was bragging with Gongsun Linglong.
Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting also woke up and were arranging the army outside.
"Are you awake? You've been sleeping for so long. You're in terrible shape."
Gongsun Linglong has a bunch of words.
I didn't feel like this when I was in Tianji Mountain before. Who broke the seal?
"You have too much energy, right?"
Long Chen complained, found Bai Tingting, and asked: "How is the situation now?"
Bai Tingting said: "Jing Tianlie tried to charge into the canyon, but was blocked by Zhang Qian and the others. The Red Flame Army camped outside the canyon."
As expected, the Red Flame Army failed to pass the level and will probably have to fight to the death tomorrow.
"You pick some loud ones and go to the Red Flame Army camp to shout to persuade them to surrender. If you can destroy them one by one, count them."
"Tell them that if the Red Flame Army pursues them, retreat and wait until they return before calling out."
"Even if we can't persuade them to surrender, don't let them rest."
Bai Tingting will go do it immediately.
After giving the instructions, Long Chen climbed up the city wall and looked at the dark grassland to the north. The sky was dotted with stars and the night wind was biting and cold.
"Are you used to my bed?"
Emperor Lingyi came over, wearing a black dress underneath and a black cloak outside.
Di Lingyi seems to like black very much.
"It's okay, it's very soft. Thank you princess for your love."
Long Chen chuckled, not showing much enthusiasm, and even deliberately kept his distance.
It can be seen that Di Lingyi is trying to win over Long Chen, who is the bidder and must ask for a good price. .??.
"Thank you for your reinforcement this time. If you hadn't succeeded in the night attack, I might not have been able to hold on. I owe you a favor."
Di Lingyi stood next to Long Chen, facing forward, but his eyes glanced at Long Chen from time to time.
"It's my duty, I don't dare to say favors."
Long Chen spoke seriously and behaved very reservedly.
Di Lingyi felt a little disappointed when she saw Long Chen's cold attitude, but she also knew that Di Luoxi was protecting the food, and it was impossible for Long Chen to switch to the family for a while.
"I went on a tour of the city."
Emperor Lingyi turned around to inspect the city defenses.
Long Chen secretly smiled in his heart: Flirting slowly, don't rush.
Jing Tianlie was blocked in the south. Tomorrow was the decisive battle. He originally wanted to be trapped for two more days to let the Red Flame Army's fighting spirit and body collapse. It seemed that the plan was about to change.
The battlefield is like this. You are planning, and the enemy is also calculating. There is no unchanging strategy.
Long Chen went down the city wall, arrived at the Long Family Army, and found Han Ziping.
"Send someone to Jade Buddha Pass and ask Old Wu to send over 20,000 more cavalry."
Han Ziping hesitated and said: "General Long, you may not know that Xixia has stationed troops at Zhenguo Temple, just in case."
He was worried that if Xixia took action, the troops at Jade Buddha Pass would not be enough.
"Don't worry, I will kill Sedum Lie tomorrow and Xixia won't dare to test it anymore."
"The next focus is on the barbarians, 80,000 soldiers Not enough, at least one hundred thousand soldiers and horses are needed to pacify the grassland."
Xixia only expressed solidarity with the northern border. Once they knew that Long Chen had killed 70,000 barbarians as soon as he arrived at Yanmen Pass and wiped out Jingtian Lie's 30,000 Red Flame Army, they did not dare to take action.
Therefore, there is no problem in deploying 20,000 cavalry from Jade Buddha Pass at this time.
"Take your orders!"
Han Ziping immediately selected a reliable person and sent the message to Jade Buddha Pass overnight.
After everything was arranged, Long Chen went back to his room to rest.
In front of the canyon.
The Red Flame Army gathered around the bonfire, and pessimism spread. Many people began to complain, and even said that Jing Tianlie had brought them into a desperate situation.
An army is loyal to its general if the general can lead everyone to victory.
Just like the younger brother and the older brother, they are guaranteed to have wine, meat, and money to share. They drink from big bowls of wine, eat large amounts of meat, and share gold and silver on large scales.
If you sleep in the open air and drink the northwest wind all day long, such a big brother is destined to live long.
In the past, Xing Tianlie was a great general, and he was so powerful that everyone followed him.
Now I am like a bereaved dog, and I am in desperate situations again and again, and my heart is slowly falling apart.
"If I had known better, I would have surrendered and gone home. I heard that everyone who went back was doing well."
A soldier whispered.
No one objected, and no one jumped out.
"Yes, when I left last year, my wife was about to give birth, and I didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl."
"I miss my mother. I don't know how she is doing."
Such topics slowly began to spread, and homesickness spread.
"Brothers, surrender, it's time to go home."
"Your wives and children are waiting at home."
"Surrender, brothers."
The people from the Long Family Army trying to persuade them to surrender arrived and shouted from a distance.
Zhang Qian heard about it at the camp and sent people to shout at the mouth of the valley to persuade them to surrender.
Soon, some soldiers sneaked out and surrendered.
Jiang Lin walked into the tent and said helplessly: "General, Long Chengen is disturbing the morale of the army. I killed more than a dozen, but I still can't stop him!"
