Chapter 1804: One person against one country (Part 1)
The generals of Li and Tang came and went, and now they have come back four times.
Looking at Yang Jian and Li Yuanba opposite, Li Cunxiao was extremely angry. These two guys were like dog-skin plaster, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.
After Li Cunxiao broke through the Grand Master, he could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to restore his internal strength. As long as he was willing, he could fight even for a day.
After a brief breath adjustment, Li Cunxiao was about to fight again, but was stopped by Gongsun Yan.
"General, we can't continue fighting like this. This is Li Tang's conspiracy."
Hearing this, Li Cunxiao was stunned, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
“Doesn’t the general still understand after the fight?
The reason why the Tang army did not attack the city but only competed with our army for the city gate was that they wanted to engage in a war of attrition with our army in the process of fighting for the city gate to consume our army's strength.
There are only 20,000 troops in Hangu Pass, but there are 150,000 Tang troops outside the city. Therefore, if we waste our energy, we are destined to be unable to defeat Li Tang.
Once the troops at Hangu Pass are exhausted, even if we want to retreat to Yewang City, we will not have enough troops to defend the city. "
Hearing this, Li Cunxiao trembled suddenly. After thinking for a long time, he asked with a bitter look on his face: "What should we do now?"
"We can no longer fight the Tang army. If we continue like this, our soldiers will be exhausted sooner or later. By then, Sizhou West Road will be in a situation where there are no troops to defend, and the Tang army can even march straight into Luoyang City. "
Gongsun Yan's eyes were full of solemnity and he said solemnly: "General, there is no hope. We must withdraw our troops as soon as possible."
Gongsun Yan felt that since he had said what he said, Li Cunxiao would definitely agree to withdraw the troops. After all, he was not an ignorant person, but he did not expect to get a negative answer.
“No, we can’t just retreat.”
Hearing what Li Cunxiao said, Gongsun Yan suddenly became anxious.
“General, even if we abandon Hangu Pass, we still have Yewang City and Yiyang City. If we don’t withdraw, we will lose even these two cities.”
"No, what I mean is that the enemy and we are in a state of anxiety now. If we retreat like this, the Tang Army will definitely send cavalry to pursue it. We don't know how many troops we will lose if we retreat all the way. So if we want to retreat safely into Yewang City, we should The Tang army must be defeated first.”
“But we can’t defeat the Tang army now?”
Gongsun Yan roared angrily, he was really angry.
At this time, Li Cunxiao's image in Gongsun Yan's mind was that of a **** general who did not care about the life and death of his soldiers for the sake of his own face.
Gongsun Yan was just about to reprimand Li Cunxiao angrily, but what Li Cunxiao said next made him stunned.
"What if I have a way to defeat the Tang army?" Li Cunxiao said seriously.
Gongsun Yan was stunned and murmured: "But it's already like this, how can we fight back..."
Li Cunxiao grabbed Gongsun Yan's shoulders and said seriously: "General Gongsun, just tell me that if I can really defeat the Tang army, can the remaining defenders in Hangu Pass safely return to Yewang City?"
Seeing that Li Cunxiao didn't seem to be joking, Gongsun Yan said decisively: "If we can defeat the Tang army, our army can set fire to Hangu Pass to prevent the Tang army from sending troops to pursue. Naturally, we can return to Yewang City without any damage."
“That’ll do.”
“Uh? Why is this enough?”
Li Cunxiao let go of Gongsun Yan, holding a magic weapon in each hand. After getting on his horse, he said calmly: "Brother Gongsun, please remember that after Li Tang retreats, he will immediately organize the withdrawal of troops and the burning of Hangu Pass."
"General, what do you want to do..."
“Drive.”
Before Gongsun Yan finished speaking, Li Cunxiao had already mounted his horse and left. At the same time, the murderous intent in his body surged like a flame, and even made a sizzling sound. "this…"
Gongsun Yan was stunned, and then tears flowed down unconsciously. He never expected that in order to ensure that the army could retreat safely, Li Cunxiao would actually burn his internal energy.
“General, you must come back alive.”
Gongsun Yan knelt down on one knee and saluted Li Cunxiao with tears in his eyes. Thousands of soldiers also knelt down together.
On the other side, Li Yuanba and Yang Jian saw Li Cunxiao coming again, and both of them showed confident smiles. After all, they had fought so many times, and they already knew the strength of both sides.
Li Cunxiao is indeed very strong, stronger than either of them. If they fight alone, either of them may not be able to survive thirty rounds, but the two of them can still compete with him together. of.
“This Li Cunxiao is really immortal...”
Before he finished speaking, Li Yuanba suddenly opened his mouth wide, showing an expression as frightened as seeing a ghost.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Jian looked puzzled, wondering why Li Yuanba was so frightened, but Li Yuanba stuttered and said: "Hurry, hurry, run quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanba turned his horse and ran away.
Not only Li Yuanba, but also other generals of the Tang Army, after seeing Li Cunxiao's posture, they all ran together, and some ran even faster than Li Yuanba.
“Hey? Why are you running?”
Yang Jian also chased after him. After all, there was no Li Yuanba, and he alone was no match for Li Cunxiao.
As soon as the two of them fled to the city gate, they noticed a shocking momentum coming from behind them, and it spread to all directions with Li Cunxiao as the center.
Boom…
A wave of air struck, knocking away all the approaching soldiers. Even the chariot began to sway from side to side, and all the war horses became restless and agitated.
Yang Jian turned his head to look while fleeing, only to find that Li Cunxiao's skin was as red as a soldering iron, and the Gang Qi around his body was surging violently, and his whole person was like a ball of flame.
"This this…"
Yang Jian was shocked and speechless. He didn't understand how Li Cunxiao suddenly became so strong. In his eyes, Li Cunxiao at this time was like a volcano that was about to erupt. Once it erupted, he might be able to wipe out himself in an instant.
“Run quickly, you are not in a desperate situation, but you are burning your inner strength. This guy Li Cunxiao is a lunatic.”
Li Yuanba gritted his teeth and said, his eyes full of fear.
“What? Li Cunxiao burned his inner strength?”
Yang Jian was immediately shocked.
Yang Jian had not participated in the battle that besieged Xiang Yu, nor had he witnessed the great master burning his inner strength. Naturally, he did not know what was going on now, but Li Yuanba had seen it, and some of the other Tang army generals present had also seen it.
After Xiang Yu burned up his inner strength, he defeated the eighteen princes who could not hold their heads up, and killed all the heroes in the world who were frightened by him.
Li Yuanba also participated in that battle, and was frightened by Xiang Yu, leaving a deep psychological shadow.
So, when he saw Li Cunxiao burning up his inner strength, Li Yuanba couldn't even resist, and subconsciously turned around and ran away.
