Chapter 207: Walking on the Edge of the Cliff (Additional Update 2/3 for Alliance Leader YangerSun)
All the sounds of fighting have died away.
All the flames have been extinguished...
The sword-wielding figure that day put away the sword energy that filled the sky.
The silent armored killing god stood silently at this moment.
San's tall and gigantic body returned to his fat figure at this moment, sitting in the city gate, with a harmless smile on his tired face.
Xinjie City has changed hands.
There were still broken flags, broken knives, and fragments of short crossbows scattered in a pool of blood. The defenders of this city were all driven to the school grounds in the city, waiting for their fate that was at a loss.
Of course, the city defense formation guarding this place has also been destroyed.
Thousands of houses were closed, and the people were restless in their houses.
This city in the east of Huiluo Mansion is already in a state of getting everything you ask for.
But none of the soldiers in the Victory Battalion said that breaking into a private house would not bring any benefits. Military discipline can really kill people.
The city's treasury was open to looting, and everyone lined up to go in and pick it slowly. If you couldn't even get the Dao Yuan Stone, who would have the patience to rob the common people of their few copper coins?
The entire Xinjie City fell into a confused silence.
I don’t know what tomorrow is, I don’t know who tomorrow is, I don’t know if there is a tomorrow…
"Are you okay?" Jiang Wang asked softly.
Entering the city first, he undertook the most dangerous task, killing the defenders, breaking down the city gates, and bombarding the army. Together with Chongxuan Sheng and Shi Shi, who later participated in the battle, they stabilized control of the city gates, and then patrolled the city several times.
Next time, kill the stubborn generals.
Almost without stopping for a moment.
But compared to Chong Xuan Sheng and Shi Shi who later participated in the war, his condition was much better.
The cities of the Xia Kingdom use the Forbidden God Disk developed by Taishi to distinguish monks below Shenlin. Of course, this is because the essence of Shenlin's blood can be distinguished more accurately, and it is easier to distinguish than combat power.
But it is also because... there are no more than ten outer building monks in the world who can complete the task of seizing the gate alone under the pressure of the city defense formation in a city defense like Xinjie City.
It really doesn't need to be taken into consideration.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wang was among them.
"Two days."
Zhong Xuansheng's voice was a little tired, but clear.
"Based on the worst-case scenario, we still have two days."
He did not answer Jiang Wang's question, but directly arranged the military affairs. He used his remaining strength and said: "Brother Wang, those who can do more work. Go and divide the brothers into two shifts and let them take the time to rest. After two days, we will still
There is a bitter battle. Tell them that they should take Qi and Blood Pills and don’t be reluctant to part with them.”
Jiang Wang thought for a moment and said, "Let the whole army rest, including you and Shi Shi."
His voice rose and spread throughout the city: "The whole army is resting on the spot. There is no need to worry about the city's defense. I will patrol the city!"
After saying that, he straightened his body and went straight to the sky. He was at the height of Xinjie City, holding his sword casually, his red eyes shining in all directions.
One person monitors a city.
The whole city was silent, and the three cadres all slept peacefully.
…
The northern front, the eastern front, the main battlefield of Tongyang City...
The entire Xia Kingdom drew a diagonal line with Guiyi City as the center. From then on, there was almost no war anywhere in the north and east!
In this chaotic battlefield environment, the battle outside Ximing City could be said to be both expected and unexpected for both warring parties.
Both Chongxuanzun of Qi and Jinling, the Marquis of Anguo of Xia, noticed the importance of Ximing City in the current stage of the war. They both made preparations for the war before coming.
But no one knew which opponent they would face. Because Qi Fang had the advantage on the frontal battlefield, it was Chong Xuanzun who escaped first and arrived in time to complete the "support" for the new Qi guard general Liu Yitao.
When he first arrived at Ximing City and was suddenly confronted by Jin Ling's army, Zhongxuanzun decisively went out of the city to fight alone. He used the sun, moon and star three-wheeled sword that was illuminated by the gods to cut off the enemy in front of all the troops.
It was as if he was willing to die, as if he was deliberately waiting for the enemy to surround him.
The smell of luring the enemy is too strong.
As expected, Jin Ling was wary and did not engage in battle immediately, but chose to form a defensive formation.
Because he knew that Zhongxuanzun was the Qi Fang Shenjiang general who had fought fiercely in the north of Linwu before, but he did not know who was commander of the Qi army that caused trouble in Ximing City and what kind of strength it had.
At this time, the two armies on the opposite side joined forces and defended Ximing City.
As a general who was finally transferred back from the front line by Xia Fang, he must take stabilizing the situation in Linwu's rear as his first strategic goal and must not advance rashly.
By locking the Qi army here, we have initially achieved our goal. If our side is defeated here due to carelessness, it will be difficult to mobilize any generals from the front line to return, and the entire Eastern Front war situation may be completely corrupted!
It wasn't that Jin Ling didn't have the courage to take risks, it was because Xia Jun couldn't afford to lose, so he slowly pushed forward to test the enemy's strength, while sending envoys to summon Fan Ao urgently.
Because of Chongxuan Zun's astonishing act of leaving the city for confrontation, he bought time for himself to reorganize the defense of Ximing City and truly build up the city defense. At this time, he must thank Chongxuan Sheng. In order to maximize the mobilization
Chongxuan Sheng had spent a lot of time in Ximing City by lowering his troops to capture prisoners and make the city defense affairs in order. He had also eliminated the unstable factors long ago, so that Chongxuan Sheng took over again.
Yes, it's much easier.
Of course, this also makes him more like Chong Xuan Sheng's lieutenant...
Chongxuanzun's fame and great promises greatly strengthened the morale of the army.
In this way, he actually stayed in Ximing City for four full days!
Until Jin Ling outside the city received news of the changes in Huiming Mansion...
After confirming that the other Qi army had already left and that Ximing City actually only had Chongxuanzun, Jin Ling was anxious and angry.
A general attack was launched immediately.
There is no need to elaborate on the difficult process of these four days. With the entire city surrendered and only 3,000 direct soldiers on our side, even Chongxuan Zun finally could not withstand the attack and led the army to open the west gate and leave.
He had been waiting for the Qi army to break through the five central cities of Linwu Prefecture. Such a siege of Ximing would be relieved without attacking. But after waiting for four days, he finally failed to wait.
Of course, the Qi army noticed the commotion in the rear of the Xia army and rushed forward at all costs. The Xia army also resisted desperately and refused to make any concessions. They left corpses lying on the front line one after another to leave time and space for the sores in the rear to be cut out.
.
The Qi army is also brave, and the Xia army is also brave. It is difficult to advance on the life and death line.
Chongxuanzun could only withdraw.
Chongxuan Sheng did not kill the surrendered troops, and Chongxuan Zunyi did not commit massacre.
The entire city surrendered and returned to Xia. He only took Liu Yitao and a few others with him, and had to face Jin Ling's pursuit.
This was a brutal battle to the death.
Sangan received a fully-replenished vanguard battalion during the siege, and five hundred people were killed in the defense of Ximing City.
In this killing battle, only 500 people died soon!
On one side is the great Qi genius, the queen of a famous family. On the other side is General Xia Guoxun, who has been here for many years.
Jin Ling certainly felt the tenacity of Zhongxuanzun personally and felt the elite of this Qi army.
After Chong Xuanzun personally broke off the force many times, even the star wheel was broken twice, he still could not escape the siege of Jin Ling's 30,000 troops, and the space for movement became smaller and smaller...
Fortunately, at this time, the five-city defense line in the central part of Linwu was finally broken. Chongxuan Zun and his men mingled with the retreating Xia army, went against the tide, took the risk to break through, and finally met up with most of the Qi army.
Jin Ling also had to retreat to Ximing City, collect the defeated troops on the front line, and rebuild the defense line.
The Linwu Mansion War has officially entered the Southern Seven Cities stage.
December in Xia may be colder than in Qi.
Sitting alone at the top of Wuhua City, Zhongxuanzun seemed not to feel the cold wind at all.
Dressed in white, still not stained by dust.
The eyes are still full of energy, firm and powerful.
Just sit there casually and you will see an ink painting.
It's just that the faint smile disappeared from the corner of his mouth, and his whole person looked unusually cold and unapproachable.
There is no doubt that he has made great contributions.
His desperate battle in Ximing City seemed to have driven a nail into the Xia people's abdomen, making them unable to move. This was an important reason why the Qi army was able to quickly break through the five cities in central Linwu.
Then he wandered behind Linwu and fought many times with the Marquis of Xia'an. He led his army to break through the encirclement and successfully returned to Qi camp.
What a heroic feat!
All the soldiers who heard about this cheered for it.
Xie Huai'an, the head coach of the Eastern Front, also met with him in person and encouraged him. He recorded many achievements in his credit book!
But at this moment, he was just thinking...
The cruelty of war cannot be seen clearly in military books.
No matter how much the weapon of a soldier is said to be a weapon, it is just an imagination and cannot be implemented in reality. In the vanguard camp of three people, at the end of the battle, only 300 people were left to follow him to successfully break through. And the killing lasted only three days.
That’s all…
With Jin Ling's absolute military superiority, it was really difficult for him to move.
If the five cities in central Linwu cannot be broken through in time, even if he is Chongxuanzun, he has no confidence that he can hold on for much longer.
And what about Chong Xuan Sheng?
At this time, Chongxuan Sheng's situation in Huiming Mansion will only be more difficult than what he has just experienced. Because he is fighting fiercely in Linwu Mansion, he can still expect reinforcements. After Huyang Pass, the opponent is surrounded by enemies everywhere. Once
Once bitten, there is almost no possibility of decoupling.
Let’s not talk about how Zhong Xuansheng entered Huiming Mansion. How could this cunning little fat man dare to make such a bet?
Why does he think he has a chance to win this round?
"General." The deputy general came up behind him and said: "The soldiers have been replenished. I have the order from Commander Xie and the general has selected the men himself. The soldiers were very excited when they heard that they would come with you."
"Show the flag." Chong Xuanzun looked at the distant sky with heavy clouds and low pressure, and said quietly.
The deputy general of the army had been with him for many years. His talents were not outstanding, but he was extremely reliable. At this time, he only said "yes" and turned around.
"Zhong Xin." Chong Xuanzun did not look back, but suddenly asked: "Don't you ask where you are going?"
Following Zhongxuanzun, he chased south and north. Zhongxin, who was hit by six arrows in the final breakthrough battle, stopped at this time.
He just responded: "Wherever the general tells you to go, Zhong Xin will go."
"This time we are going to Daye. We will go through Pinglin and go to Daye."
Chongxuanzun gave a rare explanation: "I can't go to Huyang Pass. The terrain of Huyang Pass is dangerous and the city defenses have been built for many years.
There are also elite soldiers and strong generals stationed there, so it is extremely difficult to break through from the front. We can only pacify the entire territory of Linwu and then attack with a large army. I can't go to Dai City. That place is the window into Fengli Mansion. I want to gain credit at this stage.
, the best choice... But since it is the best choice, my fat brother must be waiting for me there!"
The battlefield was changing rapidly and there was no information available. How could Zhongxuan Sheng be able to accurately calculate and trap him in Ximing City?
He reflected afterwards that it was his character that demanded perfection that caught his pulse and predicted his choice.
In the past, he didn't care about these things. He was just trying to find ways to deal with them. He was confident that he could deal with everything.
But even he experienced difficulties many times in a battle of the scale of Qi Xia.
He believed that if he chose to go to Daicheng, Zhongxuan Sheng would definitely have new surprises for him.
The brutality of the garrison in Ximing City is still vivid in my mind.
But if he didn't make the perfect choice, but instead fought steadily in the seven cities south of Linwu,
Getting stable merit is something he can't bear!
It's not that he will definitely lose to Chongxuan Sheng in the next battle merit competition if he fights in the seven cities south of Linwu.
—Zhong Xuansheng and Jiang Wang stirred up the storm after Huyangguan. It was a dangerous act of stepping on the edge of the cliff. It is not yet known whether they can come back!
He just couldn't stand it and chose mediocrity.
So he went to Daye!
He takes greater risks to gain greater achievements!
Daye Mansion is the place where the royal family of the Xia Kingdom flourished. It was the old capital of the Xia Dynasty. It is also the location of the imperial mausoleum of Xia Taizu and Xia Taizong. It is a key place in the country and the top priority of Xia Ting's defense!
Moreover, Daye Prefecture and Guiyi City, the current capital of Xia, are not far apart geographically, with only one prefecture in between. The army in the Gyeonggi region can mobilize support at any time.
To attack such an important palace with a force of three thousand men would be like walking through a mountain of swords and a sea of fire.
Once you get stuck once, it's almost impossible to escape.
Especially...the current 3,000 people are made up of the original 300 people in the Pioneer Battalion, and their combat power is far from comparable to the elites from the Spring Death Army.
This trip is almost a narrow escape from death...;
Zhong Xin thought for a while and said: "You said before that Jin Ling was waiting for someone, but before that person came, Jin Ling launched a general attack, which means that Young Master Sheng has entered Huiming Mansion... Since Young Master Sheng is in Huiming Mansion,
We are also being chased by that big shot like Jin Ling and it’s hard to escape, so how can we go to Dai City in Fengli Prefecture?”
Chongxuan followed: "I can't imagine what he will do, but I think he will definitely be able to do it."
Zhong Xin believed in Chong Xuan Zun's judgment. After being silent for a while, he still said: "Since you are sure that Mr. Sheng will go to Dai City, tell me, if the people of Xia know his goal..."
As Zhong Xuanzun looked over, his voice became lower and lower.
Finally he said: "General, I only think about you."
Chong Xuanzun said calmly: "You seem to be doubting me, and you can no longer win a fair battle."
Zhong Xin knelt down and earnestly persuaded: "General, you are an extraordinary person beyond the limits of your humble position.
I have followed you humbly for many years and have never doubted your power. It’s just that... it’s too risky even for you to take only these three thousand people to Daye Ye Mansion. The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the palace! Your future is smooth and smooth.
, this battle is nothing more than scenery along the way. How can you be so noble and noble, why should you risk your life to fight for it?"
Chong Xuanzun just stood up and walked towards the city.
The calm words he left behind will not be changed by anyone in the cold wind of this foggy city.
