The army was moving fast, like a torrent of steel that washed away everything that stood in its way. The heavy boots on the feet kicked up smoke and dust from the finely divided soil, and even the sun above the head became a little blurred. Driven by the heat wave, the smoke and dust could not land for a long time, and looked like an endless golden ribbon from a distance.
On the way, Li Neng saw many large-scale breeding farms, but there was nothing inside. I don't know if it was abandoned long ago or it was strategically transferred elsewhere. All in all, there are only a bunch of empty shells left. But even so, the grandeur of its scale is enough to make people dumbfounded. Thinking that this was once the property of the fourth child, Li Neng's eyes turned red with jealousy.
This used to be Lineng's territory, and Lineng still looks at these cities with this kind of perspective.
So the industries built on the basis of these cities should also be his property.
"These untouchables didn't work hard when I was under my command, but it was a pleasure to work for others."
Li Neng scolded, these buildings are quite troublesome to repair, and it is impossible for Yuxi City to send people to do them all. It also means that after the remaining four cities were brought under Lide's banner, a considerable part of the people in them were willing to work for Lide, which is why the scale of these farms was built so large.
Although Li Neng didn't know what was raised in it, he could make a lot of money by raising some casually.
"Speed up and capture Yuxi City, everyone will be rewarded!"
Li Neng shook the reins violently, and the white steed quickened its pace, knocking down a slow-moving soldier. The army still maintains a considerable degree of efficiency, but the atmosphere is like a pool of stagnant water. The big pie drawn by Li Neng was thrown into it without causing any waves.
Some boring Li Neng wiped the sword in his hand, thinking that it seems that he should focus on training on slogans.
This army marched all the way to the outskirts of Yuxi City without encountering any decent resistance. This made Li Neng more affirmed his judgment. Yuxi City probably planned to abandon his car to protect the handsome man, send back all the four cities that he had taken from him at the beginning, and concentrate all the living forces in Yuxi City to resist.
But Li Neng doesn't intend to let his younger brother get his wish!
What's the use of taking back only four empty cities that have nothing else to offer? Haven't I searched these cities hard enough these years
What he needs are powerful subordinates, and what he needs are the attractive industrial chains hidden behind the rise of Yuxi City. So he seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity without hesitation, not only to avenge the back cover being robbed, but also to double the interest from Lid.
Li Neng wiped his eyes when the solid and majestic city wall of Yuxi City appeared in front of his eyes. He wondered if he had come to the dilapidated small city in the west. The walls had been heightened and thickened, and the whole city was like a steel fortress.
But Li Neng was relieved soon.
He heard the clang of the troops walking beside him, and saw the full quiver on the backs of the archers, and the pride in his heart once again rushed to Xiao Han. The demons have besieged Yuxi City for so long, I am afraid that the food and grass in Yuxi City have already been in a hurry, and I only need to surround them in groups to consume them alive in the city.
No matter how invincible the defense is, it can't solve the problem of consumption. Once the people inside collapse, no matter how high the city is built, it will be of no use.
…
Unlike Li Neng, who is full of confidence, Selaginella is always nervous.
His hand was always on the hilt of the sword, and his brows were deeply wrinkled. Seeing the iron barrel-like defense of Yuxi City, Selaginella's expression changed several times, and a very bad premonition surged in his heart. A bad guess came to his mind, and at this moment, Selaginella felt that he was standing on the cusp of the storm.
He can tell Li Neng that he has a guess, and he suspects that this is a trap that has been carefully laid out from the beginning.
He could also choose to remain silent, and just usher in the end of everything calmly.
And soon, Selaginella discovered something. He can only choose the second option, which is like many games that seem to give you different options but point to the same ending. The first option was a false option from the very beginning, leading to the same eternal hell.
Because Li Neng would not listen to what he said at all.
In other words, no one in the top ranks of this army will listen to what he has to say.
Because he is a different kind who is not liked by anyone, and he is the scapegoat who rushes to the front of the team. Any advice at this moment has become an excuse for greed for life and fear of death. People who only have interests in their eyes cannot see the hidden danger in front of them. What's more, in Li Neng's eyes, the current Yuxi City is already at the end of its strength, and there is no other way but to defend behind closed doors. He has no doubts about this judgment.
Selaginella felt his heart beating faster and faster, he quickly turned his head and said to his subordinates beside him:
"If there is danger, listen to me, I will lead you to live."
Although the soldier didn't understand, he nodded hastily when he saw Selaginella, who was the school officer, say this, and then quietly passed the news to the people around him. Only then did Selaginella feel his heartbeat stabilized a bit, no matter what he was about to face next, he had already done the only thing that a small school officer could do.
The field of vision gradually became a bit narrow, and after entering the suburbs, the road was not as spacious as before. Fortunately, the road outside Yuxi City was paved with something. It was very smooth, and the troops would not be disturbed at all when they stepped on it.
Yuxi City is getting closer.
There are archers stationed in the city, and judging from their momentum, these archers are obviously stronger. But there is still the same problem, the number is too small, Li Neng estimated that the top will prepare rolling logs and falling rocks for defense, but these things will certainly not be many, because most of them are used to deal with the demons.
Coupled with the fact that Tianqi City and Lieyang City were occupied by themselves, Fang Shisan's defensive array lost most of its effect. It can be predicted that this siege battle will not be very difficult.
If they can besieged here for ten days and a half months, most of the people in Yuxi City will be panicked, and if I order the people to attack Li De in my capacity as the third son of Yunyang, there will be chaos in Yuxi City. This battle has been completely settled until now, Li Neng silently pronounced the death sentence for the former fourth son of Yunyang in his heart.
Unknowingly, the wind picked up.
The leaves in the forest rustled, but there was no bird song as an accompaniment.
Li Neng, who had already simulated the city defense battle in his mind, raised his sword high and shouted at his troops:
"attack!!"
As soon as the cadenced order came down, the fan-shaped army formation had already begun to charge across the board. The soldiers in the front row were the first to accelerate, while the people in the back started to run, and gradually changed to a loose and dense position in the front.
And at that moment, two sword qi, one red and one white, shot out from the forest, instantly blasting the formation protection into a pile of fragments in the mid-air on the right side of the army formation, and directly bombarded twenty or thirty people at the same time. God.
The siege battle that Li Neng had expected did not break out in the end.
Because he couldn't touch Yuxi City at all.
