Emperor Lingyi wanted to go down and fight, but Long Chen said he would be trapped for two days before talking.
"It's certainly fun to go down and fight, but we don't have many soldiers and we must conserve our strength."
"They are trapped animals now. They fight with all their strength. We can't get any relief."
Emperor Lingyi's 50,000 cavalry lost almost 20,000 in battle, leaving only 30,000 available troops. Adding in the 50,000 troops brought by Long Chen, there were only 80,000 troops.
Although more than 70,000 barbarians were killed last night and more than 3,000 were captured, 150,000 escaped and there were still soldiers in the grassland to replenish, and at least another 300,000 troops could be cobbled together.
The pressure on the number of troops is great, and Long Chen must reduce casualties.
Di Lingyi also knew that he had suffered too many casualties in the battle in the previous two days.
"Then just trap them, wait until they are exhausted, and then send out troops to deal with them."
The emperor ordered the pass to be strictly guarded, no one was allowed to fight, and the crossbowmen fired arrows when they saw the Red Flame Army.
In early spring, the wind and sand blew violently at Yanmen Pass, causing stones to fly everywhere.
The Red Flame Army gathered under the pass and reluctantly established a camp.
"General, are we stuck here like this?"
Jiang Lin said unwillingly.
Jing Feng was so angry that he smashed things everywhere and cursed Long Chen as a bastard and too treacherous.
Chen Yuxin was also very anxious at this time. If he wanted to leave here, there was only one way to go to Yanmen Pass. Now that Long Chen and Di Lingyi had joined forces, even if they used a fighting general to make a surprise attack, the chances of winning were slim.
The last time Jing Tianlie and Long Chen were beaten so badly in a one-on-one duel, they may not be able to get any benefit from another fight.
"General, the way forward is blocked, we will take the back path!"
Chen Yuxin said suddenly.
Jing Tianlie thought for a while and said: "Yes, if you don't let me go north, then I will go south and capture a city. I will slaughter a city. I want to see if Long Chengen can get out!"
"
Since Yanmen Pass cannot be passed, then attack the city south, kill the people in the city, and force Long Chen to fight.
"Okay, this is a good idea, kill them all and see if he can get out!"
Jing Feng laughed wildly.
Jing Tianlie immediately ordered: "All soldiers are preparing to march south and attack the surrounding cities."
Attacking the surrounding cities would not only force Long Chen to fight, but also raise food and fodder for their troops.
They only brought three days' worth of food with them when they ambushed them, and they were almost finished.
If soldiers and horses have no food and grass, their morale will be in chaos!
The officers and soldiers of the Red Flame Army immediately took up their weapons, broke camp and headed south.
At the pass, the soldiers hurriedly reported the emperor's order.
"Going south? They are going to attack the city!"
Di Lingyi was anxious, she knew what the Red Flame Army was going to do.
Long Chen was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "They can't get through, Zhang Qian has already occupied the canyon."
Long Chen had already sent someone to deliver the message. At this time, Zhang Qian had already set up camp to block the canyon.
The area where Jingtian Lie can move now is only the twenty miles between Yanmen Pass and the canyon.
"You are really a talent. No wonder Fourth Sister thinks so highly of you!"
Di Lingyi looked at Long Chen meaningfully.
Bai Tingting next to her felt jealous, and her eyes were clearly appreciative.
If a woman appreciates a man's talent, she will easily fall in love with him.
"The third princess is ridiculous. It's just a matter of luck. If Jing Tianlie hadn't been smart enough to deploy troops in the canyon, I wouldn't have had the chance to do this."
A good strategy requires the cooperation of the enemy. If Jing Tianlie only besieged Yanmen Pass, Long Chen would have to fight a tough battle.
"I heard that because of you, the queen mother looks at the fourth sister in a different light, is that right?"
Di Lingyi stared at Long Chen and asked.
"Well... I don't dare to speculate on the Holy Will. If the Holy Spirit thinks highly of me, I will do my job well, that's all."
Long Chen felt that this Emperor Lingyi wanted to win over him.
You can win over, but you must show sincerity.
In order to win over and stabilize Long Chen, Di Luoxi not only offered her body to him, but also sent the maids from the West Palace to Long Chen, which was full of sincerity.
Emperor Lingyi must at least offer himself before we can talk about wooing him, otherwise there is no need to talk.
"In that case, it's the same when you do things for me. I am also the queen's daughter, and I am also a princess. The third princess is the same as the fourth princess."
Di Lingyi started teasing.
Long Chen smiled and didn't answer. There was no point in saying it. He had to come up with benefits, benefits, benefits, and say important things three times!
Seeing that Long Chen didn't answer, Di Lingyi was not in a hurry. She knew that Long Chen and Di Luoxi spent a lot of time together, so they had to be patient when poaching.
Just yesterday, Emperor Xingwan's secret message arrived.
Emperor Xingwan wrote in his letter that the empress valued Di Luoxi very much now, all because of Long Chen.
She advised Emperor Lingyi to win over Long Chen, and it would be best if Long Chen became a member of Beigong.
Di Xingwan was also very honest, saying that if she and Di Luoxi didn't deal with each other, Di Luoxi wouldn't be able to get what she couldn't get.
Di Lingyi felt that it made sense. In the past three years, Di Luoxi relied on Long Chen and her prestige in the court surpassed that of Di Yuwei.
If Long Chen can be won over, Emperor Lingyi will also have a chance to succeed.
"Then let Jing Tianlie run and let's take a rest."
Emperor Lingyi threw the spear to Zhang Man.
Long Chen was also tired and took Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting into the prison to rest. Only Gongsun Linglong was walking around with two hammers as if he was beating chicken blood, not knowing how tired he was.
After entering the handsome manor, Di Lingyi arranged a room for Long Chen, right next to her.
"General Wong Long will stay here."
Emperor Lingyi personally brought Long Chen into the room.
Although it is not big, it is very clean and warm, a bit like a boudoir.
"here..."
"It's where I usually live. I have two rooms and I'll give you one."
"How can this be so embarrassing?"
Long Chen smelled a faint fragrance.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You don't live with Fourth Sister too."
"If you have any questions, you can come to me. My door is unlocked."
Di Lingyi smiled and turned back to the next room.
The door is unlocked. Are you asking me to open the door in the middle of the night?
Long Chen felt secretly happy in his heart...
Three of the four princesses have tasted it, and only Emperor Lingyi is left.
Why does it feel like a collecting card game? After collecting four princesses, you can activate the empress play mode?
"Sir, your hot water."
A pretty female soldier came in carrying a basin of hot water.
"Thank you, little beauty."
Long Chen closed the door, washed himself briefly, and then went to bed.
The pillows are embroidered with flowers, the quilt is soft, and so is the bed.
The princess's bed was very comfortable, covered with a scented quilt, and Long Chen fell asleep soundly.
Jing Tianlie hurried south with 30,000 soldiers and horses. When he arrived at the canyon, the cavalry waiting in front reported: "General, the canyon is occupied by the Long family army, we can't get through!"
Jing Tianlie sighed secretly in his heart: Why did he forget that there were reinforcements!
Riding horseback to the front of the formation, looking at the mouth of the canyon in the distance, a camp had been erected.
The mouth of the canyon is only five meters wide and surrounded by rocks and trees. It would be too easy to build a stockade to block the intersection.
"what to do?"
Jiang Lin asked Chen Yuxin.
"General, the commander of the troops here is a junior general. If we rush over, we may be able to break through!"
Chen Yuxin knew that there was only one person in the Long Family Army who was in the Martial Emperor realm, Long Chen, and the others were all kings.
Jing Tianlie hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Charge! Jing Feng takes the lead!"
