Seeking the Dao in the Seemingly Mundane Mortal World

Chapter 99: Offensive and defensive

Views:

Lihuocheng at this time.

Mang You, the general of the Western Wilderness, led his army to take a detour, and the army had already attacked the city for a day.

Li Qinglin did not go to the front line in person, the city gate soldiers worked hard, but after all, they were no match for the elites of the Western Wilderness. After a day and a night, the city was declared destroyed.

Mang You led the army in, looking up to the sky and smiling: "Li Qinglin is nothing more than that! We are overestimating him."

In fact, before that, as a famous general who had experienced hundreds of battles, Mang You had always been worried.

Because this invasion was too smooth.

Especially the frontier army... The frontier army defenders are of course Li Qinglin's absolute cronies. Over the years, I don't know how many battles and how much blood has been shed against them in Xihuang. Such a person surrendered and surrendered, and there was no dissatisfaction with any generals below. Even all the soldiers of the beacon tower were settled in advance, and it was very strange to let them drive straight in.

He also persuaded the prince to be careful, but the prince didn't listen very much.

But it turned out that there was no problem. Jiang Jiang and soldiers still led the way for them. They were able to reach Hengshan County so quickly, as well as this bypass raid on Lihuo. There was no lack of credit for the leading party.

This time, even Lihuocheng was directly broken, what else could have happened

Lihuocheng was also defended and broken. The defenders were almost killed and wounded, and there was no suspicion that they would enter the city. As a famous commander in a hundred battles, Mang You was very sure of this.

It was probably Li Qinglin who disappointed the frontier soldiers, because he was over-hearted.

The Xihuang army entered the city with horses, and the sound of horse hooves smashed the long street. Looking at Lihuo City, which was closed and closed, Mang You smiled slightly.

Nanli is much more prosperous than Xihuang. In the future, this place may become the capital of Xihuang, but it will not be easily destroyed by troops. As long as he breaks down the palace and captures Li Qinglin, Mang You can serve as the commander of destroying the country and shine in the history.

All the way to the palace, the palace guards have already fled, and the eunuchs and palace maids can be seen running around in panic.

Mang You waved his army straight in, but was stunned for a moment.

The entrance is a very broad square, and at the end of the square are high stone steps. There is a dragon chair on the stone steps, and a figure sits quietly on it, looking down at the swarming army.

Mang You cautiously instructed the soldiers to spread out and guard the major roads. Thousands of archers were stationed in the square, collectively raising bows and arrows to point at the figures on the dragon chairs.

After making sure that nothing went wrong, Mang You carried a battle axe himself, and led his army slowly approaching the stone steps.

As he got closer, he clearly saw an old man in a dragon robe sitting high above.

"Li... Li Qinglin?" Mang You's tone was quite shocking.

He himself is also a veteran in his fifties... Suddenly seeing a young and handsome opponent who had fought many times on the battlefield turned into a much older image than his own veteran, that kind of spiritual impact is really unbelievable. metaphor.

I heard what kind of illusion he used to keep his youthful appearance, and now this illusion has failed? Or did he not want to cover up

Mang You felt a little ominous in his heart.

"It's this king." Li Qinglin said with a smile, his voice was old, but very loud: "Mang You, I didn't expect that it was you and not Man Zhan, very good."

The ominous feeling in Mang You's heart became stronger.

No matter how you look at it, Li Qinglin has no room to turn around, but this attitude is too strange, it is like he Li Qinglin has won the battle.

Is this because of the extermination of the country, so I lost my mind

He didn't say anything, just cautiously asked the generals to surround Li Qinglin to death.

Li Qinglin didn't care that he was surrounded by heavy siege, and still smiled: "Actually, as a famous general in a hundred battles, you should have noticed something strange this time."

Mang You signaled to the generals not to rush into action, and said lightly: "No matter what is weird, you Nanli is gone, and you Li Qinglin are already a prisoner. You can still laugh. Could it be that the failure is too cruel, and you are crazy?"

Li Qinglin looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "It's not necessarily that Nanli has been destroyed, it is true that Xihuang must be destroyed first."

In Hengshan County, Ming He hangs in the sky, watching the attack and defense of the city wall indifferently.

The endless corpses did not cause any ripples in her eyes, and her eyes were more focused on Li Qingjun's blood-soaked fighting figure.

Immortal cultivators rarely make promises and are afraid of karma. But when Qin Yi left, she entrusted her to keep Li Qingjun's life, and she agreed without even thinking about it.

Not to give Qin Yi face.

It's not that I admire Li Qingjun.

Just because of that jade pendant.

That is a jade pendant with a lot of background... If Li Qinglin is not saved, Li Qingjun is the inheritor of the jade pendant. She Tianshu Shenque intends to sell a face to the original owner of the jade pendant. one.

But at this time, her mood was a little complicated.

She once entered the palace and communicated with Li Qinglin, her original intention was to talk about the jade pendant, but she got a very unexpected answer.

This Nanli decisive battle is far from being as simple as Li Qingjun thought.

When the offense and defense was in full swing, the Mang War Central Army under the city suddenly became commotional, and within a moment, it suddenly screamed frantically, and the army that was attacking the city retreated like a tide.

Minghe let out a sigh.

Li Qingjun looked out from the top of the city in amazement, but saw that Mang Zhan's army seemed to have received some extremely important order, and was quickly evacuating westward, and even the marching formation was a little chaotic.

The veteran Xie Yuan was overjoyed and said, "Princess eldest, you can pursue it!"

Li Qingjun frowned: "This withdrawal is too weird, could it be a trap?"

"It's not a trap." Xie Yuan said with certainty: "This is the king's plan."

Xie Yuan's tone is very strange, it seems a little lonely and sad, but also a little respectful.

"The king's plan?" At this moment, Li Qingjun did not feel the anger of being deceived, but was a little surprised.

Sure enough, even if my brother is addicted to Taoism, he is also a famous general who fought on the battlefield in the first half of his life. In the face of such an important battle, it is impossible for him to finish with just two orders. There must be some arrangements.

Was it really arranged in the dark

She quickly flew down the city and organized cavalry. As long as Nanli is fine, what does it matter no matter how much you hide? She, Li Qingjun, doesn't fight for power, so if her brother loves to take power, he will take it away.

The city gate slammed open, and Li Qingjun rode his horse in the lead, leading his army to sweep out of the city, like a sharp blade, smashing straight in behind the army of the Western Wilderness.

Sure enough, it wasn't a trap. The Xihuang army itself didn't know what was going on, only that the prince urgently ordered the withdrawal of the army. The soldiers were at a loss, and the army failed to form an army formation. In an instant, they were sprinted to the point of being overturned, but instead trampled on each other, causing countless casualties.

At the same time, the Nanli frontier troops who were originally in the Xihuang army turned their backs, and cooperated with Li Qingjun to cut the Xihuang army into countless pieces.

Offense and defense instantly reversed.

Surprised and delighted, Li Qingjun led the crowd to chase and kill them all the way, chasing them a hundred miles away.

In the distance to the western border, the beacon tower suddenly lit up the smoke. It was the Nanli border army who was still being detained in the border city and was bombing the camp and fighting for the control of the checkpoint with the guard of Xihuang again.

Li Qingjun looked at Langyan from a distance, and really couldn't think of how his brother did it.

Ming He, who was watching the battle in the air, sighed and turned his head to look in the direction of Lihuocheng.

It was as if he saw the fire burning there.
