The Liao general who came to kill was obviously a good fighter. The combat power displayed in this first confrontation was close to the level of the Divine River.
This kind of combat power would not be enough to threaten Li Danqing in ordinary times, but at this moment, Li Danqing's breath was unstable, and he still had many injuries on his body, and his combat power was already at a loss.
In this first confrontation, Li Danqing was caught off guard and was severely injured by the opponent. However, the opponent obviously wanted to take this opportunity to kill Li Danqing completely, so he did not retreat, but walked straight forward.
, in the blink of an eye, the blade in his hand was approaching Li Danqing's face.
Seeing that Li Danqing was in danger, Xia Xianyin and Qingzhu suddenly became nervous. At this moment, they took action to force the Liao army in front of them to retreat, and then wanted to go to the rescue.
But like Li Danqing, the two of them also suffered considerable injuries in the previous battle, and their combat power was very low. The moves of the many Liao troops around them at this moment were exhausting for them.
great.
Their faces suddenly turned pale, and as soon as they took a step forward, two more Liao generals suddenly came out of the crowd.
Compared with the Liao generals they faced before, the Liao generals they killed now were younger, most were only in their early thirties, and their combat power was inferior to those of the previous masters who were at or close to the Divine River realm.
There are quite a few, probably only in the third realm of Xingluo Realm.
Although such an opponent is far from enough to cause substantial harm to them, the other party does not seem to have much expectations for it. Instead, it just wants to hold them back at this moment. To the one who attacked Li Danqing
Liao will buy time...
Although Xia Xianyin and Qingzhu, who were now consuming huge amounts of money, knew what the other party was up to, the other party was bent on harassing them and was unwilling to confront the two of them head-on. They always pretended to attack, and when the two of them fought back, they were attacked by the Liao army.
They retreated under cover. Under such circumstances, the two men's progress was restrained by the other party, and for a while there was no chance to rush to Li Danqing's aid.
…
The Liao general holding a broadsword was getting closer and closer to Li Danqing. Li Danqing staggered to his feet and stabilized his body. At this moment, he felt a heartbreaking pain all over his body.
His eyes were also blurred by blood that was unknown to him or from the Liao people. He gritted his teeth and raised the Chaoge Sword in his hand to face the opponent's incoming sword.
The symbolic meaning of such an approach is far greater than the actual meaning.
Li Danqing's strength has been exhausted at this moment. The power contained in such a sword may not even be able to kill an ordinary Liao soldier, let alone this Liao general with a high level of cultivation.
And just when Li Danqing thought that his life was not magnificent, but at least somewhat legendary, it would finally come to an end at this moment.
But at this moment, several voices came from the side.
The voices had different timbres and came from different people's mouths, but they were equally hoarse and firm.
They said: "Your Majesty, leave quickly!"
Then, several figures rushed in front of Li Danqing at this moment, holding the swords in their hands that were already full of gaps, and faced the sword swung by the Liao general.
The intention of the Liao people to put Li Danqing to death was obvious. The Liao generals they sent were many times stronger than the Liao generals who blocked Qingzhu and Xia Xianyin. They were already close to the divine river realm.
The blade he swung with all his strength contained vast spiritual power, a force that was enough to destroy mountains.
For these soldiers who have just been in the first or second realm of Lichen, this kind of force is enough to destroy all their vitality in an instant.
In front of such a powerful opponent, the anger in their hearts and the swords in their hands all seemed so small and insignificant.
But the pace of their advance and the figure standing in front of Li Danqing were so decisive and firm.
The two were entangled together, leaving Li Danqing stunned for a moment.
He opened his mouth to say something to these people whose names he could not name from beginning to end, but the words were stuck in his throat and no sound came out.
The Liao general's sword finally fell.
It is carrying a huge force that seems to open up the world, and from top to bottom, it seems to destroy the world.
As a result, wherever they passed, the soldiers of the Liao Army fell to the ground like defeated soldiers. Some were directly blasted into mud by the huge force, and some had bleeding from their mouths and noses and fell straight to the ground, struggling to survive.
They were already cut off, but even so, they used their last bit of strength to turn their heads and look straight at Li Danqing, opening their mouths and trying hard to say something to Li Danqing...
But the life that has been cut off makes those words that come to the lips eventually become silent.
Li Danqing seemed to understand something, but seemed even more confused.
He stood there, as if forgetting everything around him, just looking at the dead soldiers, engraving their appearance at the moment into his mind, hiding it in his heart...
General Liao frowned, he obviously did not
It was hard to accept that this sure-fire blow was blocked by a group of guys who looked like ants to him.
Li Danqing was a serious concern of the Liao Kingdom. Before the war started, the royal court of the Liao Kingdom had already made a conclusion on this matter. In this war, the commander-in-chief Wan Yanmian had already made a decision and was determined to kill this confidant.
The great trouble will be cut off here.
Anyone who can kill Li Danqing can gain enough wealth and great power to make him worry-free for the rest of his life.
At the same time, in order to kill Li Danqing, the Liao army had paid a huge price. More than five fingers of the Liao army died in Li Danqing's hands, and the corpses of the broken Liao army were piled up like a mountain.
Due to emotions and reasons, this Liao general had reasons to kill Li Danqing.
Being hindered, he was naturally extremely angry at the moment. He glanced contemptuously at the figures of several soldiers who died under his sword. He cursed in his heart for overestimating his own capabilities, and at this moment his body fell again.
He strode towards Li Danqing.
After all, the ants' obstruction is just a small worm shaking the tree. At this moment, the army has already surrounded everyone, and Li Danqing has been seriously injured. At this moment, he is like a caged bird, unable to fly!
Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on the Liao general's face. He held the knife with a ferocious expression and walked up to Li Danqing. The blade, which was still bleeding, was lifted up by him with a victor's attitude.
Look at Li Danqing.
"Prince Li! My name is Murong Gucheng. Remember, I was the one who killed you." He said this, and at this moment, the raised knife fell towards Li Danqing's head.
Li Danqing still stood there, with a numb expression and empty eyes.
Obviously, he was still in a certain state of shock and had not yet withdrawn, so that he remained motionless in the face of the blade that was getting closer and closer.
And just when the blade was about to land on Li Danqing's head, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Li Danqing.
He was holding a knife full of gaps, holding the handle with both hands, and using all his strength, he raised the blade high to face the long knife falling towards Li Danqing.
clang!
There was a muffled sound, and the two knives met at that moment.
A huge muffled sound pulled Li Danqing out of his emotions.
Li Danqing's eyes sharpened, and he saw clearly the situation in front of him.
The person who came was none other than Chai Hongyun who had led the group of soldiers all the way through the military formation to Li Danqing!
At this moment, the strong man was holding the blade with both hands, with veins popping out on his temples. He turned back to Li Danqing and said in an almost roaring voice: "Your Majesty! Run!"
Murong Gucheng frowned, and his heart was extremely agitated.
He hates the guys who rush out one after another, hates their bravery and fearlessness of death, and hates their repeated obstructions.
He was determined to win this sword, and Li Danqing seemed unable to resist, so he swung it casually and did not kill Chai Hongyun immediately.
But his anger was already simmering, and he narrowed his eyes, with evil energy surging between his brows.
"You don't know what you can do." He said with a sneer. The strength on the sword immediately increased. He squinted his eyes and stared at Chai Hongyun in front of him: "It's just a death struggle. You are all destined to be my Daliao people."
The country is just a stepping stone to build the Kingdom of God!”
As he said this, the strength in his hand was about to increase again, but at this moment, several voices suddenly came from the side.
Most of them realized that with their own cultivation, it was difficult to cause too much substantial damage to the Liao general in front of them, so they all abandoned the blades in their hands at this time, and rushed to Murong Gucheng one after another.
, or hugging the opponent's waist, or tightly hugging the opponent's limbs, and then dragging with all his strength, trying to prevent the opponent's subsequent actions that may pose any threat to Li Danqing.
Although at this time, five or six soldiers had already taken action to try to stop Murong's old city, the huge gap in cultivation between the two sides was far from being bridged by this small number of people.
The evil spirit between Murong Gucheng's brows became a bit more solemn.
"Seeking death!" He cursed angrily, stamping his feet on the ground suddenly, and the energy in his body immediately exploded, knocking everyone back.
Several screams were heard at this moment, and the soldiers who rushed forward were knocked back one after another. Their mouths and noses were bleeding, and the divine light in their pupils was scattered, as if they were cut off by this blow.
gained vitality.
Murong Gucheng had already had enough of the entanglement of these ants. He did not want to delay any longer. He raised the knife in his hand again and was about to chop it off at Li Danqing's face.
But this time, as soon as he raised his hand, several more soldiers brought by Chai Hongyun rushed towards him again. The armor on their bodies had already been tattered in the repeated attacks, and the wounds all over their bodies were covered with blood.
It keeps flowing and looks miserable.
But despite this, their actions were extremely resolute, without any hesitation or fear. They used all their strength to fight to the death.
He hugged Murong Gucheng and yelled at Li Danqing: "Prince! Run!"
In such mutual fighting, a large number of Liao troops also came to their senses and began to attack here continuously. More Wuyang soldiers rushed forward at this time and stopped the Liao troops with their bodies.
People just wanted to give Li Danqing a chance to escape.
Chai Hongyun, who was covered in blood next to him, stood up with difficulty at this moment. He looked up at Li Danqing and clenched the knife in his hand. Li Danqing could feel that the opponent's arms were already bloody.
He was trembling and seemed unable to hold the knife firmly.
But despite this, he still said to Li Danqing: "Your Majesty, leave quickly, we will help you stop them..."
He spoke so persistently and firmly, as if he never doubted the meaning of doing so.
But Li Danqing had no way to calmly accept this heavy gift that he had exchanged for countless lives.
He stretched out his hand to hold Chai Hongyun and said: "It's useless. Even I can't change anything. We lost..."
"Then the prince will return to Wuyang City and reorganize his troops! Let's fight again!" Chai Hongyun said this.
"As long as the prince is alive and as long as Wu Yang is still there, we can eventually fight back!"
Li Danqing was stunned. He smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that easy..."
"It's just because it's not easy that the prince wants to live!"
Chai Hongyun interrupted Li Danqing again. The middle-aged man's eyes lit up at this moment, and he said: "In such a big Wuyang, there are so many capable people and strangers, but only the prince can raise his arms and shout,
If the Liao people are to be attacked, only the crown prince will try his best to save us refugees!"
"I can't do such a troublesome thing, Lao Chai. Others don't dare to do it, and they don't want to do it!"
"Only the crown prince is willing to devote all his energy to it."
"So, we have to let the Crown Prince live, and also ask the Crown Prince to live well!"
"The prince is not the only one in this world who cares about the righteousness of the family and the country. Although we are reckless and cannot speak nice words, our thoughts are the same as the prince. Today's battle is not to save the prince, but to save more flat-headed people like us.
Common people, only people like the Crown Prince are alive, and only people like us have a way to survive!"
"One day, when the four counties are restored, the prince will remember to come to this burial ground to see us, so that we can rest in peace!"
"Now, please ask the Crown Prince to retreat. We are willing to sacrifice our lives to save the Crown Prince's queen!"
When the surrounding soldiers heard what Chai Hongyun said, they all responded: "We are willing to bury the throne for the prince!"
After everyone said this, the Liao army had arrived, and all the soldiers did not dare to hesitate. At this time, they stepped forward one after another, holding swords and facing the Liao army who were killing them.
Qingzhu and Xia Xianyin also killed the two Liao generals who blocked the attack and came to Li Danqing's side. They probably understood what happened and didn't care about anything else at the moment. They stretched out their hands to pick up Li Danqing and dragged him.
Looking at the opponent's body covered in blood, he quickly moved towards the rear to kill, while Liu Zizai and others in the distance seemed to understand the situation at this moment.
The Blackwater Army and the more than 10,000 troops brought by Fang Houtu gathered together, surrounded Li Danqing, and roared towards the outside of the formation to kill.
The 400,000-strong army was in chaos, but there were always people who had faith. Gongsun Zhi also led a group of troops to kill here. The number was not large, but with the troops of Fang Houtu and Liu Zizai, it was enough to carve out a bloody path on the battlefield.
.
All the forces gathered around Li Danqing at this moment, and everyone no longer had other thoughts at this moment. They just wanted to ensure that Li Danqing was alive.
Because for them, Li Danqing is hope.
The army rushed to kill, even if they had mastered the method of fighting against the Yin soldiers, the number of the Liao army was now far greater than that of the Wuyang soldiers who still retained the belief in fighting. On the bloody battlefield, every step of the Wuyang army was
It was extremely difficult, but extremely determined.
Li Danqing, who was protected by everyone, was already in a semi-fainting state. The previous battle had consumed the strength of his attitude, and the Liao general Murong's raid on his old city had almost shattered his inner palace. He was exhausted.
He would faint at any time, and if it were not for the support of Qingzhu and Xia Xianyin beside him, he would even fall to the ground immediately.
Even in this situation, Li Danqing forced himself to hold on, and at this moment he raised his eyes and looked into the depths of the battlefield. There was a small group of Wuyang soldiers who were not surprising in terms of number or combat strength.
, under the siege of the Liao people, they fell one after another.
The wind and snow are very strong, and the hot blood is poured on the ground. It will soon cool, solidify, and then be covered.
But the flames in Li Danqing's eyes were getting hotter and hotter, as if they were going to burn the world to pieces...
That day was the third month after Ji Qi's death.
The 400,000-strong army of Wuyang's Northern Expedition was attacked and killed by the Liao people, and the army was defeated.
Under the sworn protection of the remnants of his troops, the crown prince Li Danqing fled in panic, looking as embarrassed as a bereaved dog...
