Xue Ze was discussing the defense of Linhu City with his generals in the city council hall.
The news that Long Chen and the Empress arrived in Xianhe City has reached Linhu City, and the soldiers in the city are very worried.
Long Chen destroyed Xixia, personally destroyed the Five Tiger Generals of Nanliang, and beat Li Chengdao half to death at the foot of Linjiang City.
It is said that Long Chen also removed an arm of the ghost fetus.
They were all scared to face such a terrifying man.
Lieutenant General Zhu Yan said: "I heard that Long Chen and the Empress arrived at the same time yesterday. If they launch a surprise attack, we may not be able to resist them."
Qiao Anguo, the general of Gongnu Camp, said: "General Zhu is overly worried. I heard that the number of soldiers and horses gathered in Xianhe City is only 400,000."
"We have 400,000 elite soldiers in the city. We have the same strength. With our strong defenses, it will definitely not be a problem to defend Linhu City."
Infantry general Qin Ao also said: "The military book written by Long Chen says that ten are to surround an enemy and five are to attack. Now we are evenly matched, what can he do to me?"
Most of the generals in the hall were optimistic and felt that there would be absolutely no problem in holding Linhu City.
Of course, there are also sober people who feel that the current situation is dangerous.
Lieutenant General Zhu Yan reminded: "If Long Chen and the Empress rush in at the same time, who of us can resist?"
"When Cheng Li was guarding the Houmi Pass, Long Chen broke into the city alone and killed Cheng Li. The Houmi Pass was easily breached."
"It was the same in Yunqi City a few days ago. King Quan had 30,000 elite soldiers, but Long Chen broke into the city and killed them."
"Learning from the past, we must take precautions."
Hearing this, the generals stopped making noise and looked at the general Xue Ze.
The person with the highest cultivation level in the city is Xue Ze. It is said that he has broken through Emperor Wu and reached the level of Emperor Zun.
Others may appear to be generals, but their cultivation is actually very poor.
Lieutenant General Zhu Yanliancai is as good as a king, and the others are even worse.
Originally, all of Xue Ze's generals were taken away and sent to Longxing Valley, and finally were taken over by Long Chen.
Xue Ze now has no generals available, and he is also very upset.
"General Zhu's worries are not unreasonable. Linhu City's defense should be fine. I'm afraid that Long Chen will break into the city and we won't be able to withstand it."
Xue Ze knew very well that he would definitely not be able to stop it with his own cultivation. If Long Chen rushed in, he would be dead.
At this time, a messenger came in from outside the door and said happily: "General Xue, there is news from Jinling. The emperor and the Holy Son Yujia have personally marched, and there are 100,000 forbidden troops accompanying them."
Hearing the news, Xue Ze was happy and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry anymore. With the Holy Son guarding you, you won't be afraid even if Long Chen comes."
The other generals were also very happy. They said they were not afraid of Long Chen, but they were actually very scared in their hearts.
Dozens of generals were killed at the foot of Linjiang City, and so many powerful men in Longxing Valley were also killed.
These newly promoted generals are all grateful to Long Chen.
If Long Chen hadn't killed the generals of Long Xing Valley, these people would never have had the chance to rise to power.
"Get ready to welcome the Holy Driver."
Xue Ze smiled happily.
The soldiers immediately prepared to welcome Gui Fei and Li Chengdao.
At this moment, a soldier hurried in and said: "General, there are enemy generals outside the city peeking at our army!"
Xue Ze frowned and asked, "Have you seen who it is?"
The soldier shook his head and said, "It's a bit far away and I can't see clearly."
Xue Ze immediately walked to the city, followed by the generals.
When he arrived at the city, following the direction pointed by the soldiers, Xue Ze picked up his telescope and looked towards the hillside.
Coincidentally, Long Chen also looked at the city head with his binoculars.
"This is..."
Xue Ze was surprised. He had never seen Long Chen, but he had seen the portrait.
The person on the hillside outside the city is Long Chen!
Xue Ze was so frightened that his heart trembled and his hands shook.
The deputy general Zhu Yan next to him asked: "General, who is there?"
Cold sweat broke out on Xue Ze's forehead, but he said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just the Eastern Zhou Dynasty Houqi who came to spy on the strength of our army."
The infantry general Qin Ao immediately asked for orders: "The last general requested to send troops, we must capture him alive!"
Other generals also wanted to make meritorious deeds and shouted: "The last general requests to go to war!"
Xue Ze cursed in his heart: A bunch of idiots thought they could get something cheap by going out of the city.
"Don't act rashly. If there is an ambush outside the city, wouldn't you be caught in a conspiracy?"
"Get ready to welcome the Holy Emperor. No one is allowed to leave the city!"
Xue Ze glanced at Long Chen and immediately led the generals down to the city, preparing to meet the ghost fetus.
The infantry general Qin Ao glanced at the hillside and felt a little unhappy.
There were only a few people on the hillside, so it was too arrogant to dare to go outside the city to spy on the city's defenses.
He didn't even dare to capture a few waiting knights, so why should he be regarded as a general?
When Xue Ze went down to the city, Qin Ao quietly went to his army, ordered more than 100 elite soldiers, and quietly took a boat out of the city from the west gate.
On the hillside outside the city, Long Chen saw Xue Ze through the telescope.
This man is of medium build, has a handsome face, and has the temperament of a Confucian general.
"This Xue Ze was originally a scholar, but later gave up literature and followed martial arts. He became a martial artist a few years ago."
"He has a certain degree of advance and retreat in battle, and can predict the right time to go into battle. He is a good wise general."
Wu Jian said this about Xue Ze.
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, he saw us, but he did not go out of the city to chase us, but went back. This person is very cautious."
Putting away the telescope, Long Chen took another look at the surroundings on horseback.
With the city defense in mind, Long Chen led Wu Jian and five cavalrymen back.
It was already dusk, and the golden afterglow of the setting sun shone on the lake. The evening breeze blew, and the water birds flew across the sparkling lake. It was really beautiful.
"When Linhu City is captured, you can get drunk on the lake."
Long Chen looked at the lake and said.
Wu Jian smiled and said: "I will have a drink with the young general then."
Not long after the seven people walked back, a wave of arrows suddenly shot out from the woods to the north. Wu Jian was shocked and shouted: "There is an ambush!"
The cavalry behind him immediately stepped forward, trying to block the random arrows for Long Chen.
Long Chen waved his hand, and two dragon shapes condensed with true energy dispersed the random arrows and crashed straight into the forest.
boom!
The true energy exploded, and a wail came from the forest.
Wu Jian was furious and charged in with a nine-ringed sword, followed by five cavalrymen.
In the forest, the infantry general Qin Ao was lying on the ground with one of his arms broken. There were a dozen soldiers lying motionless next to him. The other soldiers were holding waist knives and looking at Wu Jian in horror.
"Just this few people?"
Wu Jian was a little surprised. He thought there were thousands of soldiers and horses ambushed in the forest, but he didn't expect there were only about 100.
With just such a small number of people, how dare you carry out an ambush and sneak attack?
Long Chen rode in, and Qin Ao shouted: "Do it! Kill!"
Qin Ao gave the order, and the soldiers moved forward with swords in hand and besieged Long Chen's seven people.
Wu Jian immediately dismounted and started fighting.
It is difficult to ride a horse in the woods, so fighting on foot is more convenient.
The five cavalrymen also dismounted and fought together.
Long Chen only brought a long sword. He got off his horse, walked up to Qin Ao, looked at him carefully, and asked curiously: "What is your position? Who asked you to ambush him?"
Long Chen felt a little strange, why would Qin Ao ambush here?
And only bring so many people?
Originally, Qin Ao thought that Long Chen was just waiting to ride, and there were only 7 people. It was absolutely safe to lead 100 elite soldiers by himself. www.八一zw.????m
Unexpectedly, in the ambush situation, Long Chen was killed by surprise.
Long Chen killed a dozen people and seriously injured more than 20 people as soon as he took action. The remaining people fought with Wu Jian and six people, but he couldn't kill them?
Qin Ao is very confused now. He doesn't know why this team of knights is so powerful?
"Who are you!"
Qin Ao did not answer Long Chen's question, but asked who Long Chen was?
Long Chen found it a bit funny and asked: "You don't know who I am, how dare you lead troops to ambush me?"
