Ke Wangbie's whole body trembled, and he took Huang Gai's hand and said, "Old gang leader Huang is true to his word, but Ke Wangbie doesn't believe you. Okay, let's make it a deal, and wait until the Luocheng Legion invades the city and successfully drives away the enemy. . We will use the Tongtian River as our boundary. The northwest is the Luocheng Wuhun Legion's forces, and the southeast is our territory. This is a blood alliance."
Huang Gai knew that the other party had no choice at this critical moment. Otherwise, Yi Jing's army would be a day or two late in attacking Ximen. The entire Sky Legion had to be destroyed by Li Suo, the number one general of the Back Sun Sect.
"Well, this special envoy will leave the city immediately. When you see the fire in the west city, you will know that it is our Luo City Spirit Legion attacking the enemy. At that time, you can act according to the plan. Farewell Master Ke Wang, I wish you good luck."
The two of them pressed bloody fingerprints on the alliance book, and Kewangbie's copy was given to Huang Gai to take away, while the other handprint stamped with the city lord's seal was exchanged with each other and kept by Kewangbie. A blood alliance between the two sides was finally formed.
The mysterious man filed out of the boat, and Huang Gai whispered, "Let's go." The boat left the canal and headed toward the Tongtian River in the northwest.
When Huang Gai, who was covered in water, handed the alliance letter into Yi Jing's hands. In the big tent, the generals are under the stage. A piece of solemnity.
Yi Jing first turned his back to all the commanders and remained silent. No one dared to speak first and break this rare peace.
"Lord City Lord, Zhan Guan can't hold it any longer. We've been waiting for a long time, just waiting for Lord City Lord's order. Let Zhan Guan lead the vanguard army to attack the west gate."
"Yes, Lord City Lord. Now what we were most worried about has become a reality. King Ke, this old cunning guy, would never have formed a blood alliance with us if he hadn't been forced into this position by the Sun-Behind Legion. of."
"Yes, the time has come to attack Ximen. Please give me the order."
"Please give the order, Lord City Lord."
Yi Jing said calmly, "Everyone, wait a moment, I'm waiting for a message. A message that has landed from now on. As soon as the message arrives, attack the city immediately. But before that, everyone can only prepare their troops and be patient for the time being."
"Report, Lord Yijing City Lord, Lord Ba Fengnan has arrived."
Yi Jing was overjoyed and came out of his tent to greet him. Ba Fengnan, who was dressed in a dusty suit, came to the tent with the Sky Sword in his hand.
He grabbed a bowl of wine, drank it, and shouted to Yi Jing with bright eyes, "Eighty thousand horses, 40,000 foot cavalry, and 40,000 war cavalry. We have already arrived at Longwei Valley."
Except for Yi Jing and Torn Cole, all the commanders were kept in the dark. I don’t know who the 80,000 horses that Bafengnan mentioned are.
Yi Jing and Tonkel exchanged glances. The latter did not dare to nod or shake his head to express his opinion. After all, the situation is serious and any wrong move is inevitable. It's all destruction.
"Brother Ba Feng, what do you think?" The latter nodded and said, "Yi Chongtian, the king of Xingcheng, can be said to have sent out all the troops. But with their marching speed, even if we move in to reinforce the troops, we will send one or two more to Luocheng. Thousands of people. Nothing can stop him."
Tornkel was deep in thought and suddenly said, "What if I can hinder the progress of the Xingcheng Army. It will greatly slow down their march, which will take about two days."
Yi Jing slammed his palm on the table, "That's a different situation. Master Tuo, Brother Ba Feng, can I trust you?"
Tonkel and Bafengnan nodded at the same time, and the former said, "My method is to dig up the Tianhe River and let it flood the Grand Canyon. As long as the road is slippery, the enemy's speed will definitely be hindered. Maybe there will be more. Impede the enemy's march for one day. An extra day will be a surprise, but an extra two days will ensure victory for our army."
Both Ba Fengnan and Yi Jing were experts in taking risks by nature. When they heard Tonkel's words, everyone's expressions immediately changed. Then one after another they were overjoyed. Look at Torn Cole like he's divine. Only Torn Cole can come up with such a solution. All because of his route in the direction of the canyon, he was reminded by Yi Jing one step ahead. Half a month ago, he had already made military considerations at several locations Yi Jing told him. At this moment, the methods generated by mature thinking can finally be put to use.
"This matter has been decided, Commander-in-Chief of War Crown, I will take you as the commander-in-chief of the central army and lead fifty thousand Luocheng troops. At three o'clock tomorrow morning, we will storm the west gate of the Sky City regardless of the cost."
"The battle crown is ordered." He took the tiger talisman and stepped back.
"Where is Zhang Baoxiang? I ordered you to be the commander-in-chief of the rear army and command 10,000 men and cavalry. Remember. These 10,000 men and horses are used as maneuvers. You can coordinate the battlefield anytime and anywhere. In order to prevent Xingcheng King Yi Chongtian's men from suddenly coming from behind. .The second is to go to the city to help when the siege was at its most brutal."
Zhang Baoxiang said loudly, "I have received your order. I will definitely live up to the trust of the Lord of the City."
"Where is Lord Qing Changzhu? I ordered you to be the general commander of the entire army, and also to serve as military advisor. You will serve as the staff commander beside this city lord."
Qing Changzhu nodded and said, "Yes, sir, but who can be the vanguard general?"
Yi Jing's eyes instantly glanced at Huang Gai.
All the commanders were extremely shocked because Huang Gai had just returned from his great achievements. But after all, he put down his army for decades. I don’t know if I can still fight.
Yi Jing smiled and said, "Commander Huang, can I trust you like I trust everyone else?"
Huang Gai already understood what Yi Jing meant, and he said with tears, "The reason why I have three ghost heads hanging on my ghost head sword is because I hope that the three ghost heads can be removed one by one. Among the great ambitions in my life, the first First, the demon prime minister Dong Zhuo was wiped out. Now only two of the three ghost heads are left.
As for the second wish—
The second wish is to lead a troop to capture a fortress. The third ambition is to hope that one day, I can fight for Wuhun Continent, and it is best to die on the battlefield, and then enjoy the glory of being shrouded in horse leather and die successfully. Now that I have joined the Los Angeles Legion, I thought my three ambitions were far away, but I didn't expect that they might be realized right before my eyes. Lord City Lord, brothers, believe me, Huang Gai. Although I have been a water thief for more than ten years, I have never killed a good person by mistake.
Not only that, my previous experience in marching and combat has not been forgotten. May I ask the Lord of Yijing City? When you first fight against my fleet of water pirates. What's the impression? "
Yi Jing smiled and said, "It looks like a well-trained army."
Huang Gai laughed loudly and gave a thumbs up and said, "Brilliant." Then he clasped his fists as a courtesy and said, "Please give the order, Lord of the City. Make me the first captain of the Pioneer Army. Let me be the first to kill the west gate of the Sky City. The spirit commander of Luo City."
"No, you are not a good captain. This city lord wants to make you the vanguard commander. You will lead the 20,000 vanguard legions. Attack head-on. Use your ghost head sword and iron fist to knock down the west gate."
Huang Gai originally thought that Yi Jing could only make him a vanguard deputy general, which would be the highest honor.
Unexpectedly, Yi Jing was the vanguard general as soon as he opened his mouth. Such a huge honor was simply unimaginable.
"This." "Haha, the Lord of this city has always had a good eye for fortune-telling. I dare to appoint you, don't you dare to take the responsibility?"
After saying that, he glanced at Zhan Guan and the others. War Crown, Qing Changzhu, Zhang Baoxiang and others stepped forward to congratulate him, "Congratulations to Brother Huang for being promoted to Pioneer Commander."
Huang Gai laughed loudly and patted his chest, "My wish is enough, my wish is enough." After saying that, his face was so serious that his beard stood up, and he cupped his fists towards Yi Jing and said, "Huang Gai thanks the Lord of the City for your trust." . Where is my tiger charm."
Ha ha! Huang Gai's old and true appearance made the commanders in high positions and important positions in the tent burst into laughter.
Yi Jing handed the Tiger Talisman to Huang Gai's hand, Huang Gai put it on his face like rubbing his child's face, and said softly to himself, "Tiger Talisman, Tiger Talisman, I will make you the first one to attack the city." Tiger Talisman.”
Another burst of confident laughter sounded, and Yi Jing shouted, "Okay, now the deployment of troops and generals has been completed. Master Military Advisor, order the pots to be buried and make rice. Cooking will begin at the second watch. After the meal is completed at the third watch, the drums will be beaten to formally march. "
"Yes, Lord City Lord."
In the big tent, only three good brothers, Ba Fengnan, Tonkel and Yi Jing, were left.
Yi Jing poured a cup of tea. Ba Fengnan drank it and said in surprise, "It's not wine?"
Yi Jing rolled his eyes at him and said, "Brother Ba Feng, please stop laughing at me. The war is about to begin, it's strange that I dare to drink."
Tonkel sneered, "He is a little more serious this time. It can be seen that he still cares about the lives of his brothers. Otherwise, if the coach, the city lord, is drunk, this battle will be a failure." It’s better to return to Luo City as soon as possible and sleep behind closed doors.”
Yi Jing cursed and made a cross-like gesture with his hands, causing Ba Fengnan and Tonkel to laugh heartily.
"The third watch is coming soon, and my palms are sweaty just thinking about the siege battle. Brothers, let's check our siege strategy again to see if there are any loopholes."
The three of them carefully inspected the map and found that the front, middle, and rear armies were fully prepared for offensive and defensive defenses. There are no errors or omissions.
After Tonkel has eaten, he will carry out Yi Jing's order and head to the upper reaches of the canyon to carry out operations.
As the vanguard general of the Luocheng Army, Huang Gai now has great power.
The request for an audience rang out. When Yi Jing heard that Huang Gai had arrived, he frowned and said, "Now that the war is about to begin, why is General Huang here?"
"Please come in." Huang Gai opened the tent door and entered. He said to Tonkel, "Lord Tonkel, there is a man named He Li under the Tongtian Gang, who was my former deputy general. This man is good at water warfare and is extremely familiar with the waterways around the Tongtian River. When I think of this person, I think of the strategy you mentioned before, Sir Tonkel. If we get his help, we should be able to complete the task of flooding the canyon marching road ahead of schedule. So I took the liberty to come here without disturbing you all."
Yi Jing smiled and said, "Brother Huang is too polite. You can discuss the relevant matters with Tonkel. Brother Ba Feng, let's continue."
At that moment, Huang Gai told how to find He Li, how to contact him, and how to gain his trust.
Tonkel was overjoyed and immediately thanked Huang Gai.
