Li Chao was shocked when he heard the news that the enemy's 170,000 reinforcements were leaving.
In the past two years, the Central Plains Dynasty has suffered from internal and external troubles. There have been constant wars in the south. There have also been frictions with Tibet from time to time. Three of the five tiger generals of the Central Plains Dynasty lead hundreds of thousands of troops to defend themselves against the enemy all year round.
Before starting the war, they also weighed the situation.
It was believed that the Central Plains dynasty was too stretched to cope with them.
That's why the army invaded the country.
Unexpectedly, the Central Plains Dynasty can now gather 170,000 troops.
The Li Dynasty did not know that these 170,000 troops and horses almost emptied out the garrison troops in various states in the Central Plains. In order to make up for the 170,000 troops, the emperor also incorporated the civil and military officials and Ding Huyuan of the capital into the army.
The emperor of the Central Plains also made a desperate move.
Li Chao asked the spy: "Do you know who the general is?"
The spy said: "According to internal reports, the leader is General Xiong Zhan, and the deputy general is Lu Ba, the number one master in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Xiong Zhan and Li Chao have heard of it, but Lu Ba has never mentioned it at all.
Although Xiong Zhan is not a famous general, Feng Liancheng and Shangguan Minghong are the Five Tiger Generals of the Central Plains. They are both extraordinary. Once the 170,000 troops join forces with them, the two of them will be in charge of the army. At that time, it is really hard to say who will win.
Already.
Li Chaodao: "How long will it take for the enemy to arrive?"
The spy said: "We just found out that the enemy is about to leave. I don't know when they will arrive!"
Li Chao yelled: "Then go explore again. Report any trends to me at any time."
The spies were so frightened that they quickly exited the tent.
Li Chao understood at this moment that there was not much time left for the Western Region Army.
He said to himself: "We must conquer Fengxiang City! We must not let them join forces..."
At this time, someone reported that the Silver-faced Northern Demon asked to see him.
Now Qin Dingfang is regarded as a hero by the Western Region Army.
They believed that although the Demon General killed the Western Region Army to pieces, the Silver Faced Demon also killed the Central Plains Army with fear.
Qin Dingfang also boosted the morale of the Western Region Army to a certain extent.
Li Chao asked someone to bring Qin Dingfang in.
Qin Dingfang entered the account, and Li Chao asked Qin Dingfang to sit down.
In the past few days, Qin Dingfang had tried his best to help the Li Dynasty. The soldiers and civilians guarding the city were as frightened as if they had seen a ghost when they saw Qin Dingfang. Especially in the battle with the Central Plains heroes below the city, Qin Dingfang killed dozens of Central Plains masters alone.
Li Chao was very satisfied.
Moreover, Li Chao also discovered that Qin Dingfang's martial arts was getting better and better.
Li Chao looked at Qin Dingfang's silver face. He really wanted Qin Dingfang to take off the silver face and see what he had become.
Qin Dingfang took out a thin wrapping cloth and placed it on General Li Chao's case.
Li Chao opened the cloth bag and found a newly bound book inside.
There are five words in the writing: Half of the Blood Demon Book!
Li Chao suddenly became excited.
The secret book in front of me is the Blood Demon Book that is coveted by martial arts practitioners all over the world!
Qin Dingfang said: "Prince Ling, this is the Blood Demon Book I copied for you."
Li Chaodao: "King Qin, you really keep your word!"
Qin Dingfang was wearing a silver mask, so you couldn't see the expression on his face.
His blood-red gaze was unpredictable.
Only he knew that when he copied the Blood Demon Book for Li Chao, he changed two words in key places.
A slight mistake is enough to make a mistake of a thousand miles.
Qin Dingfang said calmly: "I am a person who promises a lot of money. I gave the Blood Demon Book to King Ling, and I hope that King Ling will attack the city again as soon as possible. In fact, this time the Central Plains martial arts community came to rescue Fengxiang, it may not be a bad thing for us. How many times?
The war between the north and the south in 2008 has severely damaged the Jianghu. Now these people are almost the strength of the entire Jianghu. Just in time, catch them all in one fell swoop!"
Qin Dingfang now really wants to kill all these people.
Even if the Western Region Army suffered huge casualties, it had nothing to do with him.
Now he just wants to use the power of the Western Region Army to kill Lin Yi and the others.
Qin Dingfang is now most worried about Li Chao's retreat. He added: "Fengxiang City can't hold on to food and grass for a few days. At this critical moment, we must not retreat. As long as we persist, victory is in sight."
Li Chao first carefully put away the Blood Demon Book, and then he said: "To be honest with you, I have decided to attack again. I have asked Zang Ba to go to Lucheng in person to borrow troops. However, according to spies, 170,000 reinforcements from the Central Plains have already set off.
.”
Qin Dingfang was stunned when he heard the news. He did not expect that the court could gather so many people.
Then Qin Dingfang said: "Even if reinforcements from the Central Plains arrive, they will divide their troops to rescue Lucheng and Fengxiang. In terms of strength, you still have the advantage. Just defeat them. Then the court will have no more troops to mobilize. You will also kill all the Jianghu people. When the time comes,
When the time comes, if no one can stop you, the army of the Western Regions will be able to march straight into the Central Plains. If you attack the imperial capital and kill the emperor, Brother Li, you will be the emperor of the Central Plains..."
Qin Dingfang became more and more excited as he talked.
Foaming at the mouth.
His eyes were flashing with an excited red light.
If he took off his silver mask right now, he would look like a madman.
Li Chao also felt that Qin Dingfang was becoming more and more like a mentally disturbed lunatic.
Li Chao had to continue to use Qin Dingfang, so he said perfunctorily: "Okay, I will listen to Brother Qin. I also hope that Brother Qin can help you."
Qin Dingfang said: "I will definitely help you. When Brother Tianlang was alive, I sold iron to you to raise money for the army. If you don't believe it, you can check..."
Li Chaodao: "No need to check, I know this matter well. King Qin has made great achievements. We will not treat you badly."
Li Chao dealt with it some more and then found an excuse to send Qin Dingfang away first.
After Qin Dingfang left, Li Chao took out the "Blood Demon Book".
He opened the page and said excitedly to himself: "Uncle Fifteen, I got what you wanted!"
Qin Dingfang left the tent but snickered sinisterly in his heart.
He thought in his heart: Naive, how could I copy the original Blood Demon Book to you in its entirety? I want to see what the hell your Li family can come up with.
…
The Western Region Army began to besiege but refused to attack.
Shangguan Minghong judged that the Li Dynasty wanted to wait for the city to run out of food and cause chaos. At that time, the people in the city had only two choices. Either starve to death, or fight a decisive battle with the Western Region Army.
You can't abandon the city yet.
Because Fengxiang City is now under heavy siege, the spies placed by Shangguan Minghong in the enemy camp were also unfortunately killed.
Shangguan Minghong didn't know the battle situation in Lucheng, nor where the reinforcements were, nor how many days it would take to arrive.
Shangguan Minghong was extremely anxious.
Shangguan Ming discussed with Lin Yi, and he said: "Brother Lin, I understand that you just want to defend the city and wait for help. But the food in the city can't last for a few days. We have to take the initiative while everyone is not hungry yet and still has the strength.
I made a plan, we will sneak attack the enemy camp at night..."
Shangguan Minghong is a general of the imperial court. To achieve fame, he can ignore the lives of almost all the heroes in the world, but Lin Yi cannot ignore the life and death of all the heroes.
Lin Yi said: "Brother, Li Chao is much stronger than Li Tianlang. Otherwise, he would not be respected by the royal family of the Western Regions. He is not a fool. How could he allow us to sneak attack on the enemy camp so easily."
Shangguan Minghong said: "Even if you take a risk, you still have to give it a try. Otherwise, you will just sit back and wait for death."
Lin Yi said: "Why sit still and wait for death? Didn't my brother say that the imperial reinforcements will definitely arrive? Even if it is a few days late, we can still hold on. So we will wait a little longer."
Shangguan Minghong saw that Lin Yi insisted on his own opinion, and he had nothing to do.
After all, Lin Yi is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and all the heroes listen to Lin Yi.
Now we can only defend the city and wait for reinforcements.
A few days later at night, an arrow shot into the city.
