Li Xiang galloped on his horse and soon caught up with the troops who had set off early and crossed over from the edge. The location where the coalition troops landed was only about 40 miles away from Qingzhu Village.
The army set off in the morning, and it was already past noon. With the speed of the army, it should have collided with the vanguard of the enemy's army.
As soon as the coalition soldiers landed on the shore, they saw a large flag standing in the distance, with the golden word "West" on the black flag.
Under the banner, Xiliang soldiers were arranged neatly, but if you look closer to the formation, you can see that the Xiliang soldiers were breathing heavily. It didn't take long for them to arrive here.
Marching in a hurry, even though the Xiliang soldier was very strong, he couldn't help but gasp for air.
After the coalition soldiers landed, they waited in place for the soldiers who came from behind. The number of soldiers who logged in now was only about 300. Three hundred people rushed towards an unknown number of enemies. They couldn't do it!
The coalition soldiers stood guard on the beach, watching the Xiliang troops from a distance, guarding the place for the follow-up troops.
The Xiliang army was also arriving in a steady stream. Ouyang Dingfang and Liu Han landed on the beach when the Golden Crow fell from the west. The number of coalition soldiers on the beach was extremely large.
The Xiliang army blocking the way not far away made them feel very uneasy.
They have never fought against Xiliang soldiers, but they can know the combat effectiveness of Xiliang soldiers from the Black Tiger City and White Lotus Sect soldiers.
Although the White Lotus Sect has been somewhat in decline, it has been driven from the wilderness to the surroundings of Xuanshui Lake by various major forces. The White Lotus Sect may not have high military strength in the middle and low-level cities, but the combat effectiveness of their high-level officials is something that not even the coalition soldiers dare to look down upon!
The White Lotus Sect was wiped out by the Xiliang army overnight, although it was a sneak attack.
Black Tiger City has been the fastest-promoting force outside the Northwest Pass in the past ten years. The city lord of Black Tiger City, Heihu, is the top powerhouse outside the Northwest Pass. However, in a head-on battle with Xiliang City, Black Tiger City was defeated.
!
This is the power of Xiliang City.
Ouyang Dingfang and Liu Han came to the outermost part of the beach. Beyond that was the grassland, and on the other side of the grassland was the forest.
The Xiliang army is in the forest, and they can see the Xiliang troops holding strange weapons.
"Brother Liu, I'm afraid Xiliang doesn't want us to enter the forest!" Ouyang Dingfang also saw archers in the Xiliang troops. He really didn't know why there were so many archers in Xiliang City!
Liu Han's face was full of solemnity: "I'm afraid it's more than that!"
He didn't know why he felt very uneasy. This uneasiness became even more intense when he saw the Xiliang army in the forest.
The Xuanshui Village in the middle of Xuanshui Lake cannot be taken down. Now it has just reached the shore and is blocked by the Xiliang City army. It is difficult to reach the shore.
Now they can only wait for the follow-up army to arrive and the army is assembled before they have the possibility of fighting Xiliang City again.
"Order the troops behind to build more shields!" Liu Han said: "There are a lot of archers in Xiliang City, and there is Xuanshui Village to watch out for. I don't know why I have a bad feeling!"
The two continued to watch for a while and then returned to the lake. By this time, the cold had gone away, and the three warmest months of the year, June, July and August, were ushering in outside the Northwest Pass.
The bright moon rose into the sky, and the coalition troops were still rushing from the bamboo rafts to the other shore.
At the gate of the town, a young man in black leather armor was lying on a chair. In front of the city gate, the coalition troops pushed a wheelbarrow slowly forward. They rushed to the lake and used bamboo rafts to carry the grain and grass on the wheelbarrow to Xuanshui Lake.
the other side.
"These people are really rich!" The young man picked up the fruit beside the chair, took a bite, and said in an old-fashioned way: "If they beat them a few more times, our Great Wall Legion will be able to breathe a sigh of relief!"
"You said that, can Xiliang City block it?"
The young officer beside the boy thought for a moment and said: "It is very possible that Xiliang City can be defended!
Li Xiang, the lord of Xiliang City, is a decisive person. When he thinks it is possible to fight, he will lead the army of Xiliang City to attack. If he thinks it is impossible to fight, based on the distance between Xiliang City and Xuanshui Lake, he will
It can be pulled for a long time!
During the pulling process, he can use archers to consume the coalition forces bit by bit, and also attack the coalition's logistics routes, which can be a bit long!"
Hearing what the young officer said, the young man looked at the coalition forces below: "It's best to destroy Xuanzhai. His Majesty should have ordered the destruction of Xuantian Sect back then, otherwise he wouldn't be so passive now!"
The young man didn't say anything. The young man in front of him could talk about Xuantian Sect, but they couldn't.
"It's not that I don't want to destroy it, it's that I can't destroy it!" came a somewhat cold voice, and the young man jumped up from his chair and stood on the city wall.
The woman who looked somewhat similar to the young man and was also wearing black leather armor came to the edge of the wall at the city gate. She took a look at the coalition soldiers who were still transporting them below. She turned to the young man and said, "The things are ready. You can take them with you tomorrow morning."
Return to the pass!"
"What about you, sister?" The young man mumbled with some dissatisfaction: "Sister, you do this every time. You agree to take me to play outside the customs, but after collecting all the supplies, you chase me away!"
The woman frowned slightly, and the dissatisfaction on the young man's face disappeared instantly: "Sister, I will go back tomorrow!"
The young man on the side saw the scene in front of him and wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh.
"Arrange a boat for me!" the woman said to the young man.
The young man nodded. There were boats or small buildings in the town. Some people from inside the pass came to the outside of the pass and saw the beauty of Xuanshui Lake. They asked people to build boats for them to play with. After that, they would throw the boats to them.
"yes!"
The young man's eyes lit up when he heard the woman's words. He looked at the woman with pitiful eyes and said, "Sister, just take me with you. I will follow them to the pass tomorrow morning!"
I have been outside Guan Guan so many times, but I have never been to Xuanshui Lake. I promise not to cause you any trouble, you can..."
The woman listened to the chatter in her ears and narrowed her eyes slightly: "If you say one more thing, don't even think about getting on the boat!"
When the young man heard this, his face was filled with joy. He was about to say something, but when he thought of his sister's words, he closed his mouth and said nothing.
...
The evening breeze was blowing gently, and allied soldiers rushed to the beach camp at night. Countless boats were rowing across the Xuanshui Lake. The first batch of soldiers who arrived rowed the bamboo rafts back to the edge of the town, and pulled the rafts behind them.
and deliver supplies.
Whoa whoosh!
On the Xuanshui Lake, warships full of Xiliang Navy soldiers were dispatched and headed straight for the coalition logistics forces...
In Beixuan City, the troops of Lou Fan and Ji Mo have arrived. Beixuan City is silent. Except for the footsteps of the night watch soldiers and the sound of the flames in the brazier, there are no other sounds.
In Nanli City, Zhao Er and the Snow Mountain Army arrived early, but they only watched from a distance and did not take the lead in attacking...
