Chapter 1655 Sweeping the Heaven Devouring Empire (19)
"Chase!"
"Follow me immediately!"
"Du Hui, Ruan Wengzhong, Shi Jiantang, and Li Wudi listen to the order. There are only 20,000 Chu troops under Bai Qi's command. You and other four will immediately lead the most elite cavalry and follow my commander in pursuit."
"Bai Qi must be killed today, otherwise it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart!"
Xian Zhen prides himself on being unparalleled in resourcefulness, but he suffers a series of defeats at the hands of Bai Qi, causing him to lose all face and become the laughing stock of the armed forces. If such humiliation is not washed away with blood, he will become a joke in the mouth of the world.
Huh~
Xian Zhen swung his sword and slashed furiously. The war drum and the lamb in front of him were split into two, and the flying blood hit the air. He picked up the reins of his horse, led the four generals Du Hui and commanded 30,000 elite cavalry, and Jue Chen rushed towards Bai Qi's escape.
Chase in the direction.
"General Xian is so reckless. How can he confront the commander-in-chief of the Chu army when he has already lost his position?"
The King of Light looked around with a calm smile on his face, his eyes sparkling with brilliance, and he became more and more curious about the dialogue in his heart. He could stop a million-strong army with 20,000 soldiers and horses. Such a military genius looked at the entire continent of war.
Just ten fingers.
At this moment, the King of Light no longer underestimates the Chu army. With such an unparalleled commander, this army is definitely not weak.
"Who says it's not the case? It would be too reckless to take command first. If Bai Qi's conspiracy falls into this, the 30,000 elite cavalry will be in trouble."
"No, I have to go and remind the commander-in-chief first!"
The words of the King of Light made Li Keyong startle in his dreams. Xian Zhen had been blinded by his anger. Now he led his troops to chase Bai Qi, and could only step into his trap again step by step.
At that time, I will really be fooled every year, and it will be different.
Xian Zhen's safety was not important to Li Keyong, but the 30,000 elite cavalry must not lose their lives because of Xian Zhen's recklessness. They were the mainstay of the three armies and could not tolerate any mistakes.
Think about this.
Li Ke chased Xian Zhen with his horse. At this time, Bai Qi and his army were galloping in the wilderness. He looked sideways at Di Qing and Gao Changgong and asked:
"General Di, is the location where Ruda's troops are currently setting up an ambush?"
"Don't worry, Commander. The army led by General Lu has already been carefully deployed. This time, no matter how many enemy troops are pursuing, they will never come back."
Di Qing was extremely impressed by Bai Qi. He didn't lose a single soldier, but he killed thousands of enemies, and at the same time, he saved a hundred thousand troops.
Such ingenious calculations and strategizing were truly miraculous. At the same time, he admired Bai Qi's courage very much. He was not afraid of danger in the face of a million-strong army. If it had been anyone else, he would have been exposed long ago.
"General Di, General Gao, order the army to move forward quickly!"
Bai Qi picked up the reins and mounted his horse, speeding up the advance, followed by 20,000 cavalrymen behind him. At this time, the furious Xian Zhen led the four generals and galloped towards him.
Li Ke used his neighing wind to ride his horse, and finally caught up with Xian Zhen. He crossed Gole's horse and stopped him, saying: "Commander, the Chu army's troops and horses are unpredictable. Although Bai Qi only leads 20,000 light cavalry, he can't do anything."
Where are the rest of the Chu army? The road ahead is long, how could the cunning Bai Qi have no plans?"
"I hope the commander-in-chief will put the overall situation first and not fall into Bai Qi's trap!"
"Then according to what General Li said, I should be teased by Bai Qi like this?"
"If you don't avenge this revenge, you will be useless as the commander-in-chief of the three armies!"
Xian Zhen's face was extremely gloomy, his eyes flashed fiercely, like an angry beast, and he questioned Li Keyong.
"Commander, what is the purpose of the Chu army coming to the land of Taixu? To capture my Heaven-devouring Empire, so the commander only needs to remain unchanged in response to all changes, deploy carefully under the King of War's city, and wait for Bai Qi to die."
Li Keyong's voice was strong and powerful, and the angry Xian Zhen was somewhat calm. Then he thought about it, the road ahead was dangerous and unknown, and with Bai Qi's cunning, it was impossible not to ambush him.
If he mistakenly set up a trap and lost 30,000 elite knights under his command, then he would really become a sinner, and I am afraid that Emperor Shi would not let him go.
Think about this.
Xian Zhen happened to have an excuse to go down the slope, calmed down his mind, and shouted angrily: "The road ahead is confusing and dangerous. For the safety of all the soldiers, I decided to withdraw the deployment in Zhanwang City."
"This time of deployment under the city, we must ensure that Bai Qi and all the Chu troops have no way of returning. All officers and men must obey the order and turn their horses back to Mao'er Mountain."
Xian Zhen gave an order, and the four generals Du Hui, Ruan Wengzhong, Li Wudi and Shi Jiantang led the army back and left. Xian Zhen rode up to Li Keyong's side, looked sideways and said:
"General Li, thank you for reminding me this time. Otherwise, I might have made a huge mistake and become a sinner for the ages."
"Commander, there is no need to say thank you. You and I have military orders. We should share the same hatred and join forces to resist the invading Chu army!"
.............
About half an hour later, Bai Qi received news from the scouts that Xian Zhen had led the army to give up the pursuit and turned back towards Mao'er Mountain.
Hear the words.
Bai Qi jumped off his horse and walked quickly towards the mound next to the wilderness. He raised his telescope and looked into the distance.
Rolling smoke and dust hit the sky, covering the sky and the sun. Seeing that the enemy troops had really withdrawn, Bai Qi let out a long sigh and said: "It seems that Xian Zhen was underestimated. He was not clouded by anger."
"Otherwise, the 30,000 cavalry he brought will become the dead souls of our Chu soldiers!"
"Commander, the enemy suddenly gave up the pursuit. What should our army do now?"
Generals Di Qing and Gao Changgong came to Bai Qi's side, looked up, and asked Bai Qi how to march next.
"General Di, order the army to rest where it is and be vigilant."
"General Gao, I have to trouble you to go and send an order for General Lu to withdraw his troops."
Di Qing and Gao Changgong took the order and left. Bai Qi raised his telescope and looked into the distance, thinking secretly in his mind: Xian Zhen's army and the mysterious army appeared on Mao'er Mountain, indicating that the ambush battles at Fengshan Mountain, Wangfengpo, and Qingfeng Cliff were over.
If the three-way ambush army wins, according to the original plan, they should be on their way back now, and they must send scouts to inform them. Bai Qi is worried that they will encounter Xian Zhen's army.
............
At dusk, the sun sets in the west, and the afterglow engulfs the sky and the earth, and the red light envelopes the void.
Xian Zhen, Li Keyong led his soldiers and horses back to Mao'er Mountain. At this time, King Guangming did not leave, but ordered the soldiers to collect the armor and weapons of the Chu army on the mountainside.
"King of Light, what is the purpose of this move?"
"General Xian, General Li, these enemy armors are treasures. Now that the enemy commander has escaped, the huge Chu camp is all under our control. With the help of these armors, our army can wait and wait for the Chu army to return.
, when the time comes, the fake will be confused with the real one, and they will be caught off guard."
"What a plan!"
"King Guangming is a good strategist. After this battle, we can be sure that Bai Qi's troops cannot exceed 100,000 troops. The Chu army that set up an ambush at Fengshan Mountain, Wangfengpo, and Qingfeng Cliff will definitely be subordinate to Bai Qi."
"Now Bai Qi leads his troops to leave and abandon the Chu army's camp. But from the news coming from three ambush locations, the Chu army from the direction of Fengshan Mountain should arrive tonight or at dawn. It is the best time for our army to kill them.
"
"After defeating them, quickly retreat to Zhanwang City. Even if other Chu armies arrive, they can only go there and sigh."
Xian Zhen's face showed excitement, and his eyes shone brightly at the thought of avenging his shame. At this moment, the King of Light suddenly spoke. (To be continued)
