The two armies fought. Although the Qingyang Army's 500 men were all elite, there was a huge disparity in strength and they were defeated.
Fortunately, Li Wenheng had many experts with him, who used all their fighting skills to protect Li Wenheng as he retreated.
With a "clang," the palace gate fell. Two third-level generals rushed forward and blocked the gate with their bodies.
"Master, hurry up, we have our internal agents in the city!"
"Yes, yes, there is an internal response, hurry up, send the signal quickly!"
It was the first time Li Wenheng led troops to fight. He had never seen such a formation before. He was extremely panicked for a while and didn't think about it until someone reminded him.
"Bang," a stream of light flew into the air, bursting into flames that filled the sky.
"It's a signal, brothers, kill!"
"Kill King Langya, and Marquis Qingyang will promise us to establish ourselves as city lords!"
"Kill!"
For a time, there were cries of killing in many places in the city, and three of the eight slave owners led their private soldiers to launch a rebellion.
Not only did they have soldiers, but they also had war elephants.
A small number of the war elephants that were parading on the street suddenly took off their silk clothes, revealing their ferocious armor, and rushed towards the palace.
The entire Langya King City fell into chaos!
"Rebellious and hateful, send me a signal and order the giant elephant army to attack immediately!
Close the city gate, I will kill all the rebels!"
Good guys, Li Wenheng sent a signal, Prince Langya Yucha also sent a signal, and another spell exploded in the air. Fortunately, the light of the two signals was different, otherwise a lot of people would be confused.
"Boom, boom," the gate of Langya King's City closed, and the moat suspension bridge was raised.
Inside the Qingyang Army camp, all the generals were dumbfounded, especially Qiao Lang, who was in charge of commanding the siege.
"General Qiao, something must have happened in the city. Send troops quickly to rescue the young master!"
Tianyang jumped anxiously. Originally, Tiangang said it was dangerous, but he didn't take it seriously, but now he was completely anxious.
"Yes, Mr. Tianyang is right, send troops quickly!"
Everyone shouted, and Qiao Lang came to his senses and drew out his long knife: "The whole army listens to the order and attacks the city immediately to rescue the young master!"
"Boom, boom, boom," the army was just halfway out of the city, and before they even lined up, billowing smoke and dust suddenly rose from behind, making the earth tremble.
Now it's better, let alone forming a defense, it's hard to stand firm.
"The war elephant is the giant elephant army of Langya Kingdom!"
"Turn around quickly and line up to shoot arrows!"
"This is impossible. The giant elephant army of Langya Kingdom has been disbanded!"
Qiao Lang looked back and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Amidst the billowing dust, countless huge and ferocious figures emerged. With overwhelming pressure, they lined up in a row and pressed forward.
On a normal frontal battlefield, kerosene bombs and gun formations can be used to deal with war elephants. But now, the formation is in chaos and we have left the camp. How to deal with it.
"Be careful, bed crossbow!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz," above Langya King's City and on the back of the war elephant, a large number of giant crossbow arrows were shot out almost simultaneously.
The Langya people actually mounted the bed crossbow on the back of the war elephant!
"The Langya people are shameless. The front army continues to attack the city. The rear army and cavalry stop the elephant soldiers!"
Qiao Lang had veins popping out on his forehead. Under normal circumstances, he would have ordered him to return to the camp and defend the war elephant with all his strength.
But at this time, Li Wenheng was still in the city, and even if all 30,000 Qingyang troops under his command were exhausted, he had to rescue the young master first.
Otherwise, Qiao Lang’s head will not be saved!
"With so many war elephants, the Langya people must have drawn troops from slave owners everywhere. This is a premeditated trap!"
"It's over, Li Wenheng is in danger!"
"No wonder Taiyi's Tiangang and Wangqingdao's Li Xiangxiang are all out of town. Senior brother, let's run away too!"
All the Qi practitioners were also panicked, especially the Qiankun Dao Qi practitioners who surrounded Qian Yun, who were the most panicked.
"Everyone, we are all qi practitioners, how can we be deserters? If we all cast spells together, we will definitely be able to get through it!"
At the critical moment, Tianyang stepped forward, organized a dozen Qi practitioners, and jointly cast spells. Suddenly, the sky became dark, and wind and sand filled the sky, filling the air toward the war elephants.
In the yellow wind and sand, even the war elephants were unable to distinguish their direction and became a mess.
"Boom, boom," blocked by the yellow wind and sand, the war elephants were unable to destroy the siege equipment, siege engines, and catapults, and opened fire in sequence.
With the flames of war roaring and flesh and blood flying everywhere, this siege that should have broken out a long time ago finally kicked off by chance.
………………………….
At this time, Li Wenhao led 3,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry to join Ma Yidao's troops in Qingshui Town. A total of 6,000 infantry and 6,000 cavalry, a total of 12,000 people, marched towards Daha City.
It's just that this road is quite lively.
Just after leaving Tuke City, a Taiping Dao Qi practitioner riding a donkey came to her door, claiming that the Fire Crow Army owed her a favor.
After careful questioning, I found out that this men's clothing boss named Tiangang was a little liar who deceived Zhang Wenhe and said that he would be buried in peace.
Well, Li Wenhao's nose was so angry that if the little liar hadn't provided important military information, he would have been arrested and kept warm at night.
After passing Qingshui Town, I met an old eunuch escorted by the Jinwu Guard. The old eunuch's surname was Hong. He was a very honest man. He accepted a thousand taels of gold from himself and gave him a roll of yellow cloth.
There is a lot written on it, but only four words are useful: "General of the Conquest of the West!"
The lowest titled general!
If we talk about the Anqing Army and the Fire Crow Army, these are all local armies. After having the title general, it is different. They become the Central Army, nominally under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor!
The system of titled generals was set up by Emperor Jing, the third emperor of Dayou, specifically to disgust the princes from all over the world.
I can just ban your account and recruit your army!
Back then, this move made princes everywhere disgusted!
Of course, the princes were not stupid. After suffering several losses, they replaced their generals with people from their own clan.
As a result, even if he has a title, the emperor cannot command him. Over time, the title of a general has no practical use and becomes a symbol of honor.
"It's useless to others, but it's very useful to me...!"
Li Wenhao sat on the back of the tank, drinking tea with the old eunuch and secretly giving Concubine Xi a thumbs up in his heart.
With the title of General of the Conquest of the West, at least legally, he could refuse orders from the Li family.
Emperor Youwu has been troubled in the past few years, and he is far away. He probably doesn't have much time to take care of this little salted fish of his. Li Wenhao has become a bee without a king, and he can do whatever he wants!
"General Zhengxi, the queen and the other concubines liked the perfume you sent to Concubine Xi last time, as well as the white wine in porcelain bottles, which Your Majesty praised highly!
The number is just too small, and the empress is sympathetic to the fact that the seventh young master has lost his mother since he was a child, and is not popular in the Li family, so it is inconvenient for him to open his mouth.
You also know that the empress comes from a merchant family, and the Third Highness is not favored, so it is difficult for her to move forward in this palace.
You are the only nephew in my wife’s family, so you must fight for my mother-in-law...,"
Eunuch Hong is over sixty years old. Despite the wrinkles on his face, the aura on his body is vague and vague. He is a master, definitely above the fifth level.
The old eunuch kept talking for a long time, and Li Wenhao was stunned to hear it from beginning to end, and even he admired himself.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Hong, I will send someone to make preparations right away. Even if we lose everything, we will never embarrass my wife!"
While the old eunuch drank tea to moisten his throat, he quickly seized the opportunity to express his position.
"That's good!" Eunuch Hong twirled his orchid fingers and nodded with satisfaction: "This time, you did a good job in the Huaibei Hou family's marriage, and you were generous and responsible!
Don’t worry, I’ll remember the big loss I suffered this time!”
"What loss have I suffered?" Li Wenhao frowned, a little confused.
