Chapter four hundred and sixty seventh one step late
Li Xingchen glanced at the general's flag that was already fluttering in the wind above his head, and then turned back. Cao Zhong didn't know what Li Xingchen meant, so he was inevitably a little nervous.
He had worked hard for so long, but in fact the only person who truly appreciated and promoted him was Li Xinchen. Therefore, if Li Xinchen was disappointed with him, then his career would be over.
"The battle at Xihe Ferry was fought well, and if you hadn't restrained him properly just now, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to defeat the enemy so quickly." Li Xingchen said with a smile, which could be regarded as reassuring Cao Zhong.
Cao Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and then asked: "General, now that Tiangongyuan has been obtained, how should we arrange it next?"
"My brothers must have suffered a lot of casualties. Let them all take a rest. Also, can you mobilize more troops?" Li Xingchen asked after careful consideration.
Cao Zhong was stunned for a moment: "Is the general going to attack Panlong County directly?"
Although Li Xingchen has captured Tiangongyuan now, the soldiers who have been fighting for a long time are definitely tired. Cao Zhong's troops also rushed to attack the Xihe Ferry, and then attacked Tiangongyuan without stopping for a moment. Therefore, when Li Xingchen asked this question, he really
Not a good answer.
Cao Zhong was a stable man by nature, and he still had a certain resistance to using his tired army to directly attack the fortress that the enemy had been working on. The Tiangongyuan Mountain was already so difficult to conquer, and it was conceivable that Panlong County City was even more difficult to conquer.
Li Xingchen narrowed his eyes: "Our battle is not over yet."
"General, what do you mean?" Cao Zhong couldn't react for a moment.
"Guo Liang is still on the mountain. I must capture him before I can fully control Tiangongyuan Mountain." Li Xingchen replied in a deep voice, "The people under your command who can still move must be gathered together. Now is not the time to rest.
"
"General, I will obey your orders!" Cao Zhong felt awe-struck and hurriedly raised his hands.
Li Xingchen turned around and said, "Hurry up and clean the battlefield!"
————————————————————
Du Qi's heart was bleeding. He didn't know how long he would have to hold on, but he knew that if Guo Liang continued to attack like this at all costs, then the two hundred Pu soldiers he had carefully selected would have to answer here.
If Puren wants to gain a foothold in Li Xingchen's system, it is certain that he must make sacrifices, but in Du Qi's eyes, it is impossible not to feel distressed by such sacrifices.
The Ba people are warlike, and these soldiers from the Pu people tribe have not tarnished the reputation of their ancestors. On the narrow mountain road, the soldiers of the Pu people came one after another. Some people kept falling, and soldiers kept coming up from behind. Although this thin line of defense was shaky,
But it was never really broken through. There were even a few times when the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty rushed up the hillside, only to be forcefully hugged by the Pu soldiers and rolled down the hillside!
And Guo Liang, who had led the charge at the front from the beginning, would have left his life on the hillside long ago if he had not been a personal guard.
It can be said that if you step on this small hillside, the blood of Pu people will ooze out.
"Young Patriarch, if we hold on for another half hour, I'm afraid everyone will die here!" A general covered in blood already cried in his voice, "Young Patriarch, retreat! I will personally lead the troops.
After the break, cover the young patriarch!"
There were two hundred people under Du Qi's command, a total of two generals. Another brother of his same clan had fallen down at this time, and this one was also covered in scars.
Shaking his head, Du Qi said in a deep voice: "I didn't receive the order or see..."
Having said this, Du Qi's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the battle on the hillside ahead was tense, Du Qi still knew how long he could hold on, so he was actually looking at the direction of the main peak not far away, waiting for Li Xingchen to raise the flag from there.
And now, he has seen the slowly rising flag!
The main peak camp was captured by Li Xingchen!
In an instant, Du Qi's hands were shaking.
"Young Patriarch?" General Zhuang asked in a low voice. He also noticed the raised flag. To the Pu people, this was an order to retreat.
Footsteps hurriedly sounded, and two of Li Xingchen's generals came over with their troops. With a glance, they knew how brutal and tenacious the Pu people were fighting, and they couldn't help but put away their contempt. They originally thought they could only serve as
The Pu people who scouted for information proved with their own blood that they were also fearless in battle.
"Young Patriarch!" The leading general saluted respectfully, "The main camp has been captured. The general ordered you to retreat. We will take over the defense and stop Guo Liang!"
Du Qi nodded in return: "Thank you both."
The general nodded solemnly, then turned around and shouted: "Follow me, everyone!"
He took the lead and rushed up the hillside with his sword in hand, while the soldiers behind him roared to follow.
They had been a reserve team in previous attacks, and now they finally had the opportunity to go into battle to kill the enemy.
"Kill!" General Zhuang rushed up the hillside with three steps and two steps at a time, chopped down a Northern Zhou soldier with one sword, and then ran into the crowd, forcing two Northern Zhou soldiers who wanted to attack a Pu soldier to retreat continuously. And there were constant threats around him.
A figure crossed over and charged forward.
The Pu soldier gasped for air and glanced gratefully at the general. The general made an appreciative gesture towards him, and then rushed into the crowd again with his sword. At this time, the Ba people had vaguely established the
The barriers between people and Han people have disappeared.
"We have killed so many of us, and now we Pu people can't just watch the excitement!" Du Qi said coldly, striding up the hillside, "Brothers from Pu people, follow me!"
The Pu people also fought bloody battles. When they heard Du Qi's cry, they raised their arms and shouted, following Du Qi closely. There were only fifty or sixty Pu people left, but now they occupied the strategic position.
With the advantage, and the fact that so many brothers had fallen here, it seemed unreasonable not to kill a few more Northern Zhou people, so these Pu people roared and followed Du Qi down the hillside.
Two to three hundred people suddenly poured down from the hillside, and the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty who were about to launch an attack were caught off guard and were scattered.
Guo Liang was holding a knife and preparing to arrange the next round of attack. When he saw the enemies killed from the hillside, his pupils suddenly shrank and he subconsciously looked higher. Although the wind was still strong, the snow had stopped and the field of vision was very clear.
It was about to open up, so Guo Liang quickly discovered the flag flying on the main peak camp.
Although he could not read the words clearly, the red flag clearly told him that the main peak camp was no longer his.
Guo Liang's eyes went dark, and the world was spinning.
I worked so hard, but in the end I was still a step too late!
"Kill!" The sound of killing came in an instant. Although Nanchen's troops only had more than two hundred troops in total, they still continued to kill along the mountain road.
What kind of lunatics are these? Guo Liang only felt powerless in his heart.
"Kill!" The earth-shattering sound of killing sounded from behind, filling the mountains and plains. There were no one knows how many enemies there were. Li Xun, the leader of the tribe, appeared on the mountain road with a knife. When he saw the enemies in front of him, he swung the knife fiercely.
