Shocked to hear that all 30,000 of his cavalry were wiped out, Yuan Shu became angry.
That's not 30,000 militiamen! It's 30,000 cavalry, which is Yuan Shu's capital for ascending to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.
But now, it's just one night.
Not only did the forward battalion lose nearly 10,000 soldiers, but even Yuan Shu's most precious 30,000 cavalry were wiped out. How could Yuan Shu not be angry?
"Your Majesty, think twice! Now is the time for the decisive battle with that Ji, it is ominous to kill the general before the battle!"
Yan Xiang, the mastermind who knew Yuan Shu very well, knew that instead of trying to reason with Yuan Shu, it would be more effective to tell him about these superstitions of gods and ghosts.
Sure enough, when Yuan Shu heard what Yan Xiang said, he slowly lowered his raised right hand.
"If Shangshu Yan hadn't interceded for you, I would have killed you today!
Get out of here, get out of here, don’t let me see you!”
Ji Ling, who had followed Yuan Shu for a long time, naturally knew very well about Yuan Shu's temper. He glanced at Yan Xiang gratefully and left Yuan Shu's Chinese army tent.
In the current situation, it is enough to save one's life when Yuan Shu is angry. It would be wrong to say that it is wrong, and it is only right that the honor he lost must be recovered from the battlefield.
"Send the order! Attack Xia Cai immediately after dawn. I want that Xiang Ji dead!"
Shu said.
Standing on the top of the city, Xiang Ji looked at the densely packed heads of Yuan Shu's army below, but he didn't feel the slightest sense of fear.
They are just a bunch of trash. Without the cavalry, Zhao Yun's Canglong Cavalry will no longer be able to curb his actions.
You must know that although the number of Canglong Riders is small, they are all the elites in the army. In the words of Married Woman Cao, they are all an elite team composed of a hundred generals.
Previously, Zhao Yun led the Canglong Cavalry to leave the city in order to harass Yuan Shu's army's food routes.
An army of 300,000! How much food and grass will be consumed every day?
Now the area around Xiacai has long been cleared by Xiang Ji, and even Yuan Shu can't even hope to find a grain of food.
As long as Zhao Yun's Canglong Cavalry General Yuan Shu's food path is cut off!
Humph, an army of 300,000? I'll let you go back to Shouchun alone, not even a horse!
As for now? As long as we block the offensive of Yuan Shu's army and delay Zhao Yun's side for enough time, then Yuan Shu's army will naturally collapse without fighting when there is no food.
"Xiang Ji! My son! Do you only know how to play tricks? Why are you not as powerful as you were at Hulao Pass? Do you dare to open the city gate and fight against my army?"
Sitting in the luxurious carriage, Yuan Shu cursed loudly at Xiang Ji who could be seen when he raised his head.
This guy, even in Hulao, is still a brainless and idiot.
Looking at Yuan Shu wearing a dragon robe below, Xiang Ji felt dumbfounded.
If you didn't have such a good background, how could you, a player, be able to survive until today? Are you afraid that someone would have fucked you long ago?
Without waiting for Xiang Ji's reply, a general emerged from Yuan Shu's formation, none other than Ji Ling, who was disgraced last night.
"Your Majesty, the criminal Ji Ling invites you to fight!"
Ji Ling took a very low posture towards Yuan Shu. When he saw Yuan Shu nodding reservedly to him, Ji Ling let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it seems that His Majesty has not given up on me yet.
"I am Ji Ling, the great general of the Cheng Kingdom. Does anyone dare to fight?"
Holding a three-pointed two-edged sword, Ji Ling rode his horse to the foot of Xiacai City, and began to invite Xiang Yu to fight at the top of the city.
Humph, I don't know whether your Xiang Yu was injured last night. I, Ji Ling, don't believe you dare to go out of the city to fight.
As long as Xiang Ji wasn't there in person, Ji Ling really didn't notice the others.
What about General Zang Ba of Annan yesterday? Before I even took it seriously, the weapon in my hand was blown away, and it was all rubbish.
Looking at Ji Ling who was shouting in the city, Xiang Ji must be lying if he said his hands were not itchy.
However, considering that Bai Long was still training, Xiang Ji could only endure it.
Mad, I'll wait until Bai Long recovers from his injuries.
"Hahaha! What? No one dares to fight against a certain family anymore?"
Seeing no reaction from Chengtou, Ji Ling became even more arrogant.
Sure enough, Xiang Ji was injured and dared not step out, so who is still my opponent?
As long as we behave well in front of His Majesty today, His Majesty will soon forget about the problem of the thirty thousand cavalry.
Zang Ba, who was also at the top of the city, felt secretly resentful when he saw Ji Ling shouting.
But after last night's fight, Zang Ba knew that he was no match, so he had no choice but to walk towards the city out of sight and out of mind.
"Xuan Gao, when did this happen at the top of the city? Why do you look so angry?"
Zhou Tai, who was reorganizing in the city, saw Zang Ba approaching with a bad look on his face and hurried over.
After some questioning, Zhou Tai learned that it was Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling who was inviting the battle below the city, but Xiang Ji was unable to leave because of Bai Long, and Zang Ba thought he was not his opponent, Zhou Tai became angry.
Are you really trying to bully our army?
"Don't panic, look at me, I killed that bullshit general."
After that, Zhou Tai carried his serrated blade and ran towards the city.
But as soon as he arrived at the top of the city, he found that the entire city wall was filled with shouts for everyone, and Zhou Tai was shocked.
Could it be that the lord couldn't bear to go out of the city to fight Ji Ling?
Damn it, as a subordinate of the lord, how can you let the lord fight when he is injured?
Zhou Tai blamed himself very much for this, but a sudden voice in his ear pulled him back.
"Youping is here? Let's watch the battle together. If Lu Meng can't stand it any longer, he may ask you to go meet Ji Ling."
It turned out that it was not Xiang Ji who went to battle, but the young and energetic Lu Meng.
When he saw Ji Ling constantly shouting and taunting, Lu Meng, who was furious, did not ask for instructions, but opened the city gate and patted his horse to fight.
Realizing that it was a young general, Ji Ling did not pay attention to Lu Meng who was rushing towards him.
With a casual wave of the three-pointed, two-edged sword in his hand, he thought he could cut Lu Meng in two directly.
But I never thought that after this period of study, Lu Meng would not only improve in military tactics.
With the guidance of many powerful generals around him, Lu Meng was no longer Wu Xia Amen.
He twisted his body to avoid Ji Ling's attack, and stabbed Ji Ling in the face with the bronze sword in his hand.
!!!
Ji Ling was startled by Lu Meng's sudden blow. Fortunately, Ji Ling, who had been fighting for many years, reacted quickly and avoided Lu Meng's fatal sword.
But the burning sensation in his ears told Ji Ling that he was still injured by Lu Meng.
"court death!"
In a rage, Ji Ling started to slash at Lu Meng crazily with the three-pointed, two-edged sword in his hand.
Although he kept dodging with his dexterous body, the difference in strength was too great. After holding on for more than ten rounds, Lu Meng accidentally was knocked down by Ji Ling.
Just when Ji Ling was about to strike back at the fallen Lu Meng, another general came out of the city of Xiacai.
"Ji Ling, I am Zhou Tai, do you dare to fight!"
