The cavalry behind them blew the war horn. When Li Xiang learned that Zhuzhen and other small towns organized troops to block the road, he had already thought of countermeasures.
After Tupo City is acquired, the three cities of Langya City and Longling City Tupo City will be connected in a line. This road will also be repaired again to ensure that various supplies and war machines can arrive as quickly as possible.
to the battlefield.
The existence of these small towns is an obstacle. Wouldn't it be better to take advantage of this opportunity to directly destroy all these small towns?
Outside the Bamboo Town is an earthen wall about one foot high, made of a mixture of mud and bamboo. This height is nothing to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. They are all the best among the best.
According to the classification of strength in the Eastern world, their combat effectiveness has generally reached the low-level realm, and the horses under them are of the same strength as them. Don't underestimate the low-level realm. The highest realm for most people is this realm. Speaking of zhenqi
It is not difficult to jump one foot at a time.
Can a three-meter-high earthen wall stop them? No!
When Li Xiang launched an attack, Cheng Jushu and others in front immediately retreated to both sides. The most important thing for Xiliang is to be able to understand various war orders, such as horn sounds, war drums, the remaining flags and gestures, that is, elites
Troop matters.
Rumble!
The Xiliang cavalry behind them ran faster and faster, the horses' strong limbs stamped hard on the ground, and they rushed forward with all their strength.
Bamboo Town is the gateway to the bamboo forest, and the following towns are all in the bamboo forest. At this time, the 2,500 people in the town have just gathered.
Don’t worry about anything, just rush and be done!
The mayor of Bamboo Town saw that they were getting closer and closer without slowing down at all. The houses in Bamboo Town were all made of various bamboos. If these cavalry rushed over, they would not be able to stop them.
Moreover, he was certain that the city wall would not be able to block the opponent's charge at all, and their city gate would most likely fall down in the first breach of the charge.
Li Xiang used martial arts that he had not used for a long time, flying generals to attack. When he was still weak, he relied on martial arts to defeat strong enemies and monsters. Now it is difficult to encounter enemies who can suppress him. He is not a hero in the world.
Not so much, but in this area of northwest China, if you really want to find good players, the only one you can find is Xuantian Sect.
Xuantian Sect is one of the few top martial arts sects in the world. With a background like Li Xiang's, it was very likely that he would be hacked to death on the road in the past. The two sides are already enemies. Do you need to talk about the moral principles of the world to kill an enemy?
Rumble!
Xing Liao Iron kicked and stepped on the ground, leaving traces. People at the city gate could only see a black shadow, and all the aura on Li Xiang's body was dispersed.
In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to the closed city gate. Li Xiang held the Fangtian Halberd and struck forward hard, bringing with it extremely violent black real energy.
"No!"
The mayor of Zhuzhen, who was standing at the city gate, had just opened his legs, and Li Xiang, who was carrying a thunderous force, had already reached the city gate.
boom!
When Fang Tianji encountered a little obstacle, it was like piercing paper with a gun. One man and one horse turned into black shadows and rushed into the enemy group behind, blocking the horses and other things used to hinder the cavalry.
fly.
"Yu!"
He rushed into the army and grabbed the reins of the horse. Xing Liao raised his front hooves and stepped down hard. The Zhuzhen soldiers who were more than ten meters away flew backwards. Those soldiers were terrified. This was something they couldn't resist.
Behind them, the Xiliang cavalry broke through the city wall, directly covered the long weapons with real energy, and smashed the city wall of Zhuzhen. In the small town, they stayed at home and looked at the Xiliang soldiers in horror. They had never seen such equipped cavalry before.
, there is only the Great Wall Legion outside the entire Northwest Pass, which has heavy cavalry, but the color of the Great Wall cavalry is red, and these are black.
Xiliang cavalry came to attack, and Prime Minister Li shouted loudly: "Those who surrender will not be killed!"
The Xiliang cavalry rushed into the city wall and trampled down all the houses near the city wall. They didn't care whether there was anyone inside.
Seeing the Xiliang cavalry charging in easily, how could they stop the cavalry?
A soldier knelt on the ground and threw his weapon aside. The people behind him also threw away their weapons and half-knelt on the ground.
As long as you can live, what dignity do you need?
In just one cup of tea, the Xiliang cavalry and infantry phalanxes all entered Bamboo Town. There are four roads in Bamboo Town, one leads to Tupo City, and the remaining three roads lead to the other three small towns in the bamboo forest sea.
The mayors of the four small towns have died tragically at the hands of Li Xiang, and more than half of the troops have been captured, leaving little resistance.
Without thinking, Li Xiang immediately divided his troops into four groups. The army was divided into four parts. Li Xiang led two thousand cavalry and went straight to Tupocheng. Cheng Jushu led one thousand cavalry and five hundred men as one group. Cheng Jurong did the same, and the rest
Xiliang headquarters' archers and a thousand cavalry attacked the remaining town.
Leave a thousand people in the bamboo town to guard the prisoners and those inside.
Li Xiang doesn't want too many monsters and monsters on the road!
Keeping these three small towns is leaving behind three scourges. Who knows when they will jump out and rob the road? No one in the bamboo forest knows better than them.
This is the business road of Xiliang City. Li Xiangde thought about his financial backers. If he wanted to be rich, he had to build the road first!
If the roads connecting the three cities are repaired, the journey from Tupo City to Langya City will only take about twelve days even if you walk. If you have horses, it can be shortened to ten days. If the war horses go at full speed, it will take about three days.
.
Li Xiang saw too many bad sections along the way. Sometimes it was difficult for the horses to move and it was so muddy that they needed to be repaired.
The construction period in Xiliang is busy, and these tasks fall on the prisoners of war from all over the country. Otherwise, what would Prime Minister Li do if he left these prisoners of war? He would consume a lot of food every day!
Tupocheng
A commander of the Great Wall Army looked a little irritated at the long team following the army. He didn't know who had spread the news that Xiliang City, the largest force outside the pass, had been killed inside the pass.
The place outside the customs is a gathering place for exiles. In the eyes of ordinary people, those people are extremely evil, and everyone is extremely vicious.
The Great Wall Legion was unable to exterminate these sinners because they had to defend against ferocious beasts, and had no time to take care of Tupo City. Tupo City was excluded from the defense line and would most likely be attacked by the Xiliang criminal army.
Upon receiving the news, the first reaction of the residents of Tupo City was to drag their families and leave this city where their ancestors had lived for nearly a thousand years.
Of course, there are still some people staying in the city. Jiuyuan County is very good, but they have no fields and no money there. How can a whole family go there and wait to starve to death?
The residents of Tupo City on the third floor left with the Great Wall Legion, and the residents of Tupo City on the seventh floor stayed behind. Each of these people who stayed had weapons in their homes, and they gathered together as same-sex families to protect themselves.
The current commander of the Great Wall Legion, Gao Yuan, the guard general of Yumen Pass, passed by Tupo City with his cavalry and saw a long team pulling out of the city.
News has come from Xiliang City. Under the leadership of Li Xiang, Xiliang City began to build a defense fortification to protect the three cities on the trade route, and also organized two attacks on ferocious beasts from the north.
It can be seen that Li Xiang attaches great importance to the trade, and part of Xiliang City's army has been exposed. Five thousand Xiliang cavalry can charge against the ferocious beasts head-on, as well as various powerful war weapons.
All these things made Gao Yuan feel a lot of pressure. Xiliang City was developing too fast. He went from Yumen Pass to Jiuyuan County. He originally wanted to recruit young people from Jiuyuan County to join the army, but the governor of Jiuyuan County stopped him.
Originally, everyone was supposed to unite to fight against the ferocious beast, but the Sheriff and King Jiuyuan got into a fight. Somehow, the Sheriff took the old prince's troops and horses into his hands.
The two were originally evenly matched, but now one is stronger and the other is weaker.
This also avoids armed conflicts, but this can only be temporary. The old prince has been operating in the northwest for so many years, and it is impossible that he does not have a few trump cards in his hand.
There will inevitably be a battle between the two, and thinking about Gao Yuan gives me a headache.
At this time, the land of Xiliang is experiencing internal and external troubles, and there is also a fierce tiger that has become a climate in Xiliang City.
Gao Yuan could only hope that the empire would send someone to take charge of the overall situation.
Daqian Imperial Capital
The ferocious beast from the northwest broke through the barrier and was in the hands of the emperor on the fourth day. However, the news was suppressed. The ministers in the court knew it, but the northwest was nothing in their eyes. It was just a bitter cold land. , at most, you can mine some yuan ores.
In the eyes of these people, apart from Yuan Kuang and Xuantian Sect, there are not many places in the northwest that deserve their attention. Even the Great Wall Legion, one of the four major frontier armies, is not very important in their eyes.
The most important ones are the steppes and the south.
General Yu Chijing was defeated miserably by a sneak attack by the demon clan. If various defenses had not been deployed first, the land that he had conquered would have been taken back by the White Lotus Sect.
The turmoil in the two places in the south has made the empire somewhat exhausted. In addition, there have been one or two uprisings across the country.
The old emperor looked even older, but no one looked down upon the old man sitting in that position. The empire's strongest troops had not yet been dispatched, and the imperial capital remained calm under the pressure of the imperial army.
"If there is anything else, let's talk about it together!" The old emperor drank a sip of thousand-year-old ginseng soup tea to restore a little bit of his luck. Now he is relying on all kinds of natural and earthly treasures to support his body.
A minister stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it is suspected that a Buddhist kingdom has appeared in Western Xinjiang!"
"Buddha country? Ahem!" The old emperor tried his best to open his eyes wide and coughed continuously. The waiter on the side patted the emperor's back gently before he felt better: "Are those ignorant things going to cause trouble again?"
A Buddhist country, as the name suggests, is a country led by Buddha, and monks are the rulers of the country.
When the old emperor just succeeded to the throne, a Buddhist kingdom with a population of tens of millions was established in Western Xinjiang. It was during that war that Li Zhen and Yu Chijing began their lifelong military journeys.
"According to the letter sent by the Loulan County Governor, nearly 500,000 people have gathered in the Peacock Buddhist land not far from Loulan County!"
"Order the Western Frontier Army to destroy them all!" What the old emperor hated most in his life was Buddha: "As long as they are present, no one will be left alive, regardless of whether they are believers or not!"
"Yes!" The minister returned to the team.
A civil servant looked around and stood up: "Your Majesty, I have received a letter from the northwest. There is a piece of news in the letter that shocked me. I don't know if it is true, but it is of great importance, so I decided to tell it. !”
"The Yumen Pass was broken. In addition to the main force of the Great Wall Legion being transferred to the far north and the grasslands, there is also a very serious problem, that is, a force outside the Northwest Pass. This force is called Xiliang City, and its lord is Li Xiang.
The first appearance of Xiliang City was three years ago. After the appearance of Xiliang City, the situation outside the northwest pass changed drastically. When the main force of the Great Wall Legion was present, although there were some battles outside the pass, everything was under control. With the main force of the Great Wall Army
Being transferred away, the situation outside the customs changed drastically, especially when the last elite of the 100,000 Great Wall Legion was transferred away, leaving only 50,000 people.
At this time, Xiliang City had no enemies outside the pass. The Great Wall Legion felt that the opponent was powerful and had evil intentions, so they sent an army of 13,000 people to fight with it. However, the opponent brought out 5,000 heavily armored cavalry, relying on the heavy armored cavalry.
The troops of the Great Wall Legion were destroyed, General Pang Sheng, the top master of the Great Wall Legion, was killed in battle, and the entire army of 13,000 people was wiped out.
Just after the Great Wall Legion suffered heavy losses, ferocious beasts attacked Yumen Pass and the Great Wall Legion retreated to Jiuyuan County. At this time, Xiliang City had already reached the northwest. According to the letter, the number of troops in Xiliang City was as high as 30,000.
As far as I know, the lord of Xiliang City, Li Xiang, is the seventh son of Marshal Li Zhen!"
The civil servant said and looked at a middle-aged man among the generals: "General Li Wu, I don't know if what I said is right!"
The civil servant's words instantly made the whole hall become noisy. This news was a bit explosive.
Everyone looked at Li Wu, and the old emperor above also looked at Li Wu. Li Wu stood up and said without changing his expression: "Your Majesty, my Li family does have a son named Li Xiang, but he did something wrong three years ago.
After the incident, he was expelled from the family tree by my Li family and expelled outside the customs. Since then, my Li family has never had contact with him!
As for what Mr. Wen said about Li Xiang, the lord of Xiliang City, I have some friendship with the leader of Qingye Xuan. I heard that he was nearly nine feet tall at this time and had great strength. My Li family also has tall children, but at nine feet, Li Xiang was expelled.
When you went abroad, you were already in your weakest years, and at that time you were only over seven feet tall. Can you, Master Wen, grow to nine feet in three years, and still in your weakest years?"
"If Master Ruowen insists on calling Prime Minister Li of Xiliang the son of my Li family, then I, the general, have nothing to say. After all, you have a mouth, and I can't block your mouth!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone in the general group burst into laughter. The expression on Lord Nawen's face did not change much. The old god was there. The old emperor glanced at the waiter beside him. The waiter nodded. The old emperor said weakly: "
Since when it comes to the northwest, the main force of the Great Wall Army is still in the far north ice field and cannot return for reinforcements, and the grassland army cannot move, do you have any good strategies?"
The audience was calm. Everyone outside the gate didn't know much about it, but they still had some understanding of some things happening in the northwest. The conflict between Jiuyuan King and Luo Tiansheng. If this was not handled well, not to mention blocking the ferocious beast, the rear
Even if it doesn't start, it's fine.
There are many military generals in the northwest, but they do not have the right to recruit troops. They can only rely on the few troops in their hands to resist the murderers. They do not want to get trapped...
