Chapter 569 : Assault in the dark night, caught off guard!
Ling Xiyue had no choice but to leave it alone. She leaned into Bei Chenyan's arms and said, "Yan, there hasn't been any movement from the ghost tribe during this time. Don't you think it's a little abnormal?"
Bei Chenyan's brows paused slightly, and he glanced at the woman in his arms.
"Look, the killing of three of the Ghost King's generals is definitely a shock to the whole clan. Even if the Ghost King doesn't take revenge, other members of the Ghost clan will come to visit him. However, there has been no news at all during this period.
." Ling Xiyue turned around and looked into Bei Chenyan's eyes, feeling a little weird.
Bei Chenyan pursed his thin lips and nodded, "In this case, either a big storm is brewing, or this breath is swallowed." He slightly raised his lips and sneered, "And the latter is almost impossible."
The ghost clan has suffered such heavy losses, how could they just let it go?
"This is what I'm worried about." Ling Xiyue frowned, "The ghost clan should wait for the opportunity."
Now that the war situation has reached its most critical moment, if the ghost clan comes out to cause trouble at this time, it will be really troublesome.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Beichen Yan stretched out his fingers, and the slightly calloused fingertips touched the woman's slightly frowning eyebrows, gently smoothing it.
Ling Xi Yue's slender hand grasped the man's big palm and smiled. That beautiful smile was more beautiful than any flower in the world.
The two looked at each other and smiled, no need to say anything more.
"By the way, according to time, people from the Huangfu family and the Xue clan should be arriving soon." Ling Xiyue suddenly remembered, "It would be best if they can solve the affairs of the three clans by themselves, and we can save some worries.
, concentrate on the battlefield." xdw8
Xilan and Longxiang are two major imperial courts that cannot be underestimated. Together, their strength will never be inferior to Tianlin.
Bei Chenyan nodded without comment.
"I received a letter from Nalan Xueyi a few days ago, saying that he has passed through Yuncheng. Why haven't he arrived after so many days, and there is no news." Ling Xiyue touched her chin with a delicate finger and said to herself.
Mutter to yourself.
When Bei Chenyan heard this name, he felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, but he still didn't say anything more.
He tapped his fingertips on his bent knees, changed the topic, and said in a calm voice, "Now we are in a transitional period, and the black fire in our hands is not abundant. Now we are deep into the hinterland of Xilan, and the situation behind us has not yet been completely stabilized. Let's look at Xiling Mo
The situation Qiangang set up must prevent Xi Lan and Long Xiang from taking the lead in sneak attacks and counterattacks at this time. In terms of military strength, our army of 300,000 does not have an advantage over their millions."
"Yes." Ling Xiyue suddenly realized and straightened her body for a moment, "This is also a problem!"
During this period, they held the advantage of Black Fire and attacked all the way, occupying a dominant position. They never thought that the other party would strike back first and come to seek death.
She really neglected this point.
If they have enough black fire and the enemy comes to attack them, even if they only have an army of 100,000, they will definitely seek death. But now the black fire in their hands is stretched thin, and the fastest supply will still take two or three days. The situation is like a wolf in front and a tiger in the back.
.
If they take advantage of this moment to counterattack, it is not impossible.
"You should be more thoughtful. I would have ignored you even if you didn't say anything." Ling Xiyue clicked her tongue.
Of course, coming out of a strong city defense is also an extremely risky thing. It is equivalent to giving up one's own barrier advantage, which is something no normal general would do.
Ling Xiyue didn't think about that, it was normal.
Bei Chenyan smiled and said, "I just mentioned this. If the other party doesn't know the status of our Black Fire reserves, they will never dare to come to us rashly unless they can get it and confirm our military information."
Ling Xiyue nodded, "Be prepared, but you still have to be careful."
At least in the past few days, Xi Lan and Long Xiang cannot be allowed to know that their army has insufficient black fire reserves.
"Of course, I have already made arrangements." Bei Chenyan raised a slight smile on her red lips and said casually as she met Ling Xiyue's eyes.
When marching and fighting, the most important thing is often these details. They may seem insignificant, but in fact they will affect the entire battle. Beichen Yan has been fighting in the south and north for many years. His survival to this day depends not only on his physical strength, but also on his sharp mind and
Meticulous planning.
The Shenyu Army stopped their siege and ended up in a stalemate with Xilan's million-strong army at Mingbeiguan.
No, to be precise, the armies of the three dynasties have temporarily stopped their movements. In Jiabei Pass, which is dozens of miles south of Mingbeiguan, Xiling Mo Qian has mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, and they are also watching eagerly.
The flapping sound of homing pigeons filled the sky, and the sound of horse hooves sounded like a strong wind and rain.
Countless secret letters and information were shuttled and spread between the three dynasties.
It was night, and a dark shadow slowly stepped onto the gate of Mingbeiguan.
The visitor had a voluptuous figure, and she looked like a woman at first glance. She had beautiful features and stern eyes. She was wearing a nine-phoenix Chaoyang cloak. She stood on the tower and all the soldiers knelt down behind her. She looked like a king.
Who is not Queen Mother Xiao?
"Queen Mother, you'd better move to the cabinet. It's really dangerous here. The Tianlin Army outside may attack at any time. The power of the black fire is very frightening, but you don't have the foresight." The general who defended the city stepped forward to persuade.
Everyone did not expect that the Empress Dowager Xiao Huanyun would not stay in the imperial city, but would come to the front line to fight the enemy with them.
It has to be said that the officers and soldiers were quite moved. The generals who had previously opposed her listening to politics behind the curtain and laughed at her were now also quite ashamed.
Empress Dowager Xiao looked around, looking at the Tianlin military camp that had gathered in the sky like stars, and sneered, "The Ai family has lived for decades and has never been afraid of anyone or anything. The Ai family came here overnight.
, and it’s not just to hide behind and watch the battle!”
"The Queen Mother is wise and powerful, and she is protected by the Holy Light." The general who defended the city echoed loudly.
Empress Dowager Xiao flicked her sleeves and turned around, with a majestic and fearless look on her face. The colorful phoenix on her head, spitting out pearls, was shining brightly in the light of the lamp.
She said slowly and deeply, "You should also remember for the Ai family that the black fire is just a slightly more powerful fireball, not a magical weapon. As long as the soldiers work together as one, there will be no difficulty that cannot be overcome."
Even powerful things will eventually be used up one day!"
"yes"
Everyone echoed in unison.
For a time, morale in the city was greatly boosted.
The Queen Mother lives and dies with them on the front line, and a woman has nothing to fear in her heart. What else do they fear?
I swear to protect Mingbeiguan to the death!
Empress Dowager Xiao looked at the appearance of the soldiers and nodded with great satisfaction, "This is like our good son of Xilan, who protects his family and country without fear. Your determination is seen by the Ai family and they fight back
After becoming a bandit, I will never treat you badly!"
"Swear to be loyal to the Queen Mother to the death!" Hearing this, all the soldiers shouted in unison.
Empress Dowager Xiao looked at the surrendered soldiers at her feet, her red lips slowly raised, and the fierceness in her beautiful eyes grew rapidly.
