Zhao Er took the soldiers of the Yulong Gang and the Snow Mountain soldiers to wander around the outside of Nanli City. He had no appetite for Nanli City, which was so close at hand. Nanli City had high red walls, a moat and the city in Daqianzhong. almost.
It would take a long time for them to capture such a city, and 3,000 men and horses were not enough. They would have to have at least 5,000 men.
Their coalition claimed to have 9,000 troops, but it was actually 11,000 troops. However, they were divided into three battlefields, so the number of troops on the Xuanshui Lake side was larger.
Zhao Er was waiting, waiting for the battle situation on the other side of Xuanshui Lake. The troops of Xuanzhai and Jinsha Gang started from the middle and went straight into the heart of Xiliang.
The Xiliang army will definitely rise up to resist. A war between the two sides is inevitable, and the battle will definitely break out faster than they do.
It was quiet outside Nanli City, and it was the same outside Beixuan City. They were all waiting for the battle situation at Xuanshui Lake. They came with troops to give Xuanzhai face, and they also restrained a large number of troops from Xiliang City and successfully completed Xuanzhai. task.
After Xuanzhai and Jinsha Gang take down Qingzhuzhai and Xuanshui Village, they may be able to incorporate the troops in Beixuan City into their own forces.
The bravery of Xiliang soldiers has been revealed from the two battles between the White Lotus Sect Holy Land and Black Tiger City. Xiliang City was destroyed, and the distance between Beixuan City and Nanli City is so far. It shouldn't be a problem to include these soldiers in one's own forces. It's difficult.
Just when the major forces outside the Northwest Pass were paying attention to the battle at Xuanshui Lake, in the northern wilderness outside the Northwest Pass, a blue leather armored force appeared next to the most important Yuan mine in Loufan City.
Yuan ore is a very magical mineral vein. There are various crystals in the veins. The crystals contain a large amount of vitality, which can be absorbed by people. Some people call it spiritual energy.
This type of mineral vein is even rarer than gold mines, and there are only five such mineral veins outside the Northwest Pass. After Lou Fan destroyed the previous force that occupied the mineral vein, he relied on Yuan Mine to become one of the seven first-rate forces.
As the most important mineral vein in Loufan City, Loufan has stationed two thousand Loufan soldiers around the mineral vein. All of them are cultivators, making them the most elite troops in Loufan.
In addition to stationing troops, Lou Fan also built a high wall to protect the entire cave entrance.
After the cyan troops passed through the exposed stone wasteland, they stopped in a deserted place. After the moon rose, the cyan troops advanced under the moonlight.
On the wall of Loufanyuan Mine City, a few soldiers drank some wine and looked at the wilderness outside from time to time. Their eyes were a little nervous and excited!
The soldiers patrolling the city wall at night were diligent and dedicated, and some soldiers were lying next to the city gate below. As long as there was any movement on the city wall, they could rush to the city wall in the shortest possible time.
Luo Yi led six soldiers on patrol from Dongchengkou to Xichengkou. In total, the soldiers at Xichengkou were the most serious.
The vigil force at Xichengkou was still six years ago. A small force that could not survive came to join them. They made a lot of achievements in these six years and were even more loyal to Loufan City. These soldiers were sent to station in the mining area.
The soldiers stationed in the mining area are treated the best. Although they lose a lot of fun, they are only boring for a few months. After a few months, someone will be replaced.
Luo Yi patted the general of this unit, a middle-aged man in his thirties who was in the prime of his life.
"Do a good job, and I will help you ask the city lord for credit later!"
The middle-aged man smiled innocently and said nothing.
Shortly after Luo Yi led the people away, the middle-aged man raised his head with a mocking smile in his eyes.
After six years, it’s finally time for them to take action!
The middle-aged man came to the city wall with his soldiers. Half of this section of the city wall belonged to them, and the other half belonged to another army to guard it.
Two different teams guarding together can avoid some things, but Lou Fancheng doesn't trust them, so it's better to be cautious.
The middle-aged man made a gesture to his soldiers, and some soldiers ran to the city gate and brought a large amount of wine and food.
The food was originally for the soldiers who were keeping watch in the middle of the night. The wine-keeper had collected it over the years and carried the food to the city wall to attract the other half of the troops. The wine was also filled with some stupefying drugs.
Soon almost all the soldiers on the other section of the city wall fell down, and the few remaining soldiers guarding the city were secretly knocked down by them.
The entire west city gate has become the territory of the middle-aged soldiers, and the crossbar of the lower city gate has disappeared at some point.
Outside the city wall, blue leather-armored troops arrived, and their goal was this mining area.
On the other side, Loufan City was in a hustle and bustle. Loufan had become an established first-rate force and had a vitality mine in his hands.
The city of Loufan, which had no shortage of financial resources, was very huge, and its population reached an astonishing 30,000 people.
However, among these people, there are only about 10,000 people who belong to Loufan City, and the remaining 20,000 are soldiers who are making a living in the wilderness.
The Northern Wilderness is very large and desolate, but in such an environment, there are all kinds of magical medicinal materials growing, some of which can treat internal injuries, some of which can treat external injuries, and some of which can improve cultivation.
In addition to various medicinal materials, there are also a large number of ferocious beasts. Further north is the ice field.
The materials in this wilderness are no less than those in Xuanshui Village. There are mineral veins in many places. There are few iron ore mines around Xuanshui Lake, but there are some in the wilderness. Some mineral veins are directly exposed on the surface of the ground, waiting for people.
Go mine!
"Sir, everything is ready!"
Zhou Hangjie stood on a building in Loufan City: "Are the traces of the Lord of Loufan City under control?"
The black-clothed secret agent said: "After you release the news about Yuan Mine, City Lord Lou Fan will personally bring a thousand elites there, and Jimo will also send a thousand troops. The two sides will meet in two days!"
Zhou Hangjie looked at the white moonlight through the window: "I have been lurking for so many years. Although I have accomplished a lot, I am really uneasy without an army of my own!
Taizu relied on the weapons in his hands to make his fortune. If the prince wants to secure his position, he also needs soldiers in his hands!
After ascending to that position, you must have soldiers in your hands, eat the emperor's salary, and be loyal to the emperor!"
"Tonight at midnight, start on time. I will enter the Lord of Loufan City's palace at Choushi!"
There was also a flash of excitement in the eyes of the black-clothed secret agent. They had spent so many years in the dark, and everyone longed to walk in the sunshine!
....
The battle was over, and the Xiliang soldiers had just cleaned up the battlefield. Just as Li Xiang was about to go to sleep, a message came from Xiliang City, and Li Xiang ran back with his cavalry overnight.
Camos stood on a huge stone, with crops stretching as far as the eye could see and no end in sight. This was a crop they had never seen before!
