Shi Le stood on a high place, overlooking the battlefield below him. Long Chen was surrounded by more than 8,000 people, and to the north was the counter-attack army led by Gan Zhen that was advancing forward.
Shi Le ordered Gan Zhen to be blocked, and all the soldiers surrounded and killed Long Chen.
The crossbowmen on the city are on standby, and if Long Chen dares to fly, they will kill him with random arrows.
The military doctor carefully untied Shi Le's arm guards and cut off his sleeves, and finally saw the forearm that had been split open by Long Chen.
The sword cut deep into the bone and almost cut off Shi Le's left arm.
The military doctor immediately took out a needle and thread to sew up the wound, and used a protective plate to clamp the forearm.
Shi Le sat on a temporarily moved chair, with cold eyes and a sinister smile on his face.
"Your Majesty, it will only be a matter of time before Long Chengen is killed."
Lu Qichang stood beside him, quietly watching the fighting at his feet.
Shi Le sneered: "Long Chengen is good at surprise attacks. This is his biggest advantage and biggest disadvantage."
"Throughout the history of his fortune, there were surprise attacks on Linjiang City, Caishi City, Jade Buddha Pass, Zhenguo Temple, and barbarians. Each time was a surprise attack."
"His art of war talks about 'attacking the enemy by surprise', which is very clever, but it has a fatal flaw..."
The generals around him waited for Shi Le to continue speaking, but Shi Le stopped there and did not continue.
Lu Qichang took Shi Le's words and said: "If his intention for a surprise attack is guessed, it will not be a surprise attack, but death!"
Shi Le sneered and said: "That's right. He never expected that Yan Xifeng would betray him and tell me his sneak attack plan!"
At this point, Shi Le himself was surprised that Yan Xifeng would actually choose to return to Xixia when faced with the current situation.
If it were Shi Le, he would choose to join Long Chen. This would be the wisest choice.
Lu Qichang said: "The Yan family is loyal..."
Shi Le said angrily: "Loyalty is nothing. Yan Xifeng has betrayed you a long time ago. Once you betray, you will always betray!"
"He rebelled only because the Yan and Li clan threatened to die, not because he was loyal to me!"
Lu Qichang's heart moved slightly... He just spoke for Yan Xifeng in order to speak for himself.
He said that the Yan family was actually loyal, because he wanted to remind Shi Le that his Lu family was also loyal, even though the queen had been played by Long Chen.
But Shi Le said that once you betray, you will always betray, so...
At his feet, Long Chen held a long sword and stepped on the corpses towards Shi Le. Corpses fell one after another, blood splattered everywhere, and the soldiers rushed forward one by one, seemingly endlessly...
On the side, Yan Xifeng was holding a three-foot-long sword, looking at Long Chen who was surrounded in the middle, with resentment in his eyes.
After Gan Zhen broke into the north gate, Yan Xifeng watched the battle from the side.
He was very calm and knew that Long Chen was powerful, so rushing forward recklessly would only lead to death.
When Gan Zhen was blocked at the north gate, Yan Xifeng mistook Gan Zhen for Long Chen. He felt that Long Chen was dying, and planned to fight, but suddenly found Long Chen appeared in the attic, seriously injured Shi Le, and beheaded him.
Stone luck.
Yan Xifeng was startled and immediately hid and watched from a distance.
Being in the midst of tens of thousands of troops, it was like strolling in a courtyard. Long Chen had already killed nearly a thousand people. Yan Xifeng was deeply shocked!
Shi Le glanced around the battlefield and asked: "Where is Yan Xifeng? Why don't you take action?"
Lu Qichang pointed at Yan Xifeng, who was standing on the side watching the battle, and said, "Over there!"
Shi Le said angrily: "What does this guy want to do? Do you want to sit back and watch the success or failure!"
Lu Qichang immediately sent an order to Yan Xifeng to come down and fight.
At this moment, a messenger hurried over and said: "Your Majesty, the Long family army is storming the east gate, asking for reinforcements!"
Shi Le ignored it, and Lu Qichang angrily yelled: "The east gate is just a feint attack, don't pay attention, Long Chengen is here!"
Long Chen himself is here. The goal of tonight's raid is to raid the palace and kill Shi Le. The east gate is not the real target.
So Shi Le ignored him and Lu Qichang was very angry.
The messenger was reprimanded and dared not say more.
Shi Le said coldly: "Let Yan Xifeng enter. If he kills Long Chengen tonight, I can forget the blame!"
This means that if you can't kill him, then you will have to settle the score later.
Lu Qichang was about to send an order when another messenger came over on horseback and shouted loudly: "Report!...The east gate has been breached, the Long family army has entered the city, asking for reinforcements!"
Lu Qichang was taken aback and asked: "What! The East City Gate has been breached!"
Shi Le suddenly stood up and asked: "What's going on!"
The messenger replied: "At that time, the Long family army suddenly bombarded the east city gate. The army charged, broke through the city gate, and entered the city. The city was broken!"
Shi Le couldn't believe his ears...
Lu Qichang looked at Shi Le in astonishment and said, "The East Gate has been breached... So... is Long Chengen's real target the North Gate or the East Gate?"
The East City Gate was breached, and both Shi Le and Lu Qichang were confused. They didn't know what Long Chen's real goal was.
According to Yan Xifeng, the east gate was a feint and the north gate was the target.
But now, Long Chen appears at the north gate. The most elite soldiers are here to surround Long Chen, especially the generals are here. The east gate is empty.
It seems that the north gate is the bait and the east gate is the target.
"Could it be that... Yan Xifeng lied?"
Lu Qichang had a bad idea. Shi Le looked at Yan Xifeng and cursed angrily: "You are indeed a traitor, how dare you deceive me!"
Shi Le grabbed a bow and wanted to shoot Yan Xifeng to death...
Lu Qichang immediately stopped him and reminded: "Your Majesty, left hand, left hand!"
Shi Le's left arm was almost useless and he couldn't bend the bow at all. The imperial doctor immediately advised: "Your Majesty, please don't do anything..."
Shi Le cursed angrily: "The Yan family is not a thing!"
Lu Qichang advised: "Your Majesty, maybe Yan Xifeng did not lie. It was because the defense of the east city gate was empty and it was breached accidentally."
"Whether Yan Xifeng is a traitor or not, let him go down and fight to find out."
This possibility exists. Long Chen originally intended to attack from the north gate, but he didn't expect that the north gate was surrounded and the east gate feigned attack and was breached instead.
Shi Le said angrily: "Go to the east gate for reinforcements! Let Yan Xifeng die!"
Lu Qichang immediately led his troops to the east for reinforcements, and the guards around him immediately ordered Yan Xifeng to come down and fight.
The personal guards arrived not far from Yan Xifeng and shouted: "Commander Yan, the king ordered you to kill Long Chengen!"
Yan Xifeng glanced at Shi Le and saw Shi Le looking at him.
Yan Xifeng knew he had to take action.
If you keep watching, it will be difficult to prove your position.
But... Yan Xifeng doesn't care what Shi Le thinks.
"Mom, I will avenge you!"
Yan Xifeng saluted Shi Le and entered the scene with his sword in hand.
Long Chen was holding his sword and moving forward. Countless soldiers were standing in front of them, stabbing with swords and spears. Long Chen cut off the swords and spears again and again, and beheaded the soldiers again and again.
Long Chen looked up and could vaguely see Shi Le watching the battle, but he couldn't get up.
There are thousands of crossbowmen above their heads. As long as Long Chen flies up, he will become a target.
At first, Long Chen wanted to rush forward, but later he stopped being anxious and just spent his time here.
The command levels of Shi Le and Xixia are all here. With Wu Jian, Zhang Qian and their many masters, they will definitely be able to break through the east gate.
Long Chen is waiting for Wu Jian here.
More than a dozen spears were stabbed from behind. Long Chen turned back and struck out with his sword. Several spears were cut off. Long Chen took a step forward and tore open the armor of the soldiers in front. The soldiers screamed and blood flowed profusely.
Just when Long Chen was about to continue heading towards Shi Le, a shadow suddenly fell and a knife struck towards his head.
Clang!
Long Chen raised his sword, and when it was shaken open, he saw a shadow falling down, it was Yan Xifeng.
