Chapter 221
The sky was bright, the moon had not yet set, the morning dew dripped on the grass, and the ground trembled slightly! The large army retreated from the Acropolis drove overnight, leaving Jiuyuan City to go About the next half of the journey, the first troops were about to arrive. They didn't dare to relax, there are cavalry in Xiliang, they have to run faster if they want to survive, they are really safe only when they enter Jiuyuan City! Li Xiang wakes up with dry food and eats while walking , chasing all the way, even if he can't keep the other party all, he will let the other party lose some people. Xiliang iron cavalry is not just blindly charging, they are from light cavalry, and then little by little transferred to heavy cavalry, under Li Xiang's use of military exploits, they became Xiliang iron cavalry, in the Xiliang army The top and highest troops, each soldier's level has reached the 15th level or above. The level is high, the soldier base is high in four dimensions, plus the magic cultivator training, the cultivation base of the Hundred-Men Commander has reached the rateless level, the Thousand-man Commander is the younger brother of the class, and the army general has been riding from one to three. Enter the third-rate level. At present, there are nearly a hundred people at the third-tier level in Xiliang, who are distributed in various armies. The five generals are close to the second-tier level, and their strength is close to the second-tier level. Li Xiang is the only one level expert in the Xiliang army, Qingsong Laodao is not a native of Xiliang, so it is not included in it. Soon Li Xiang changed his cavalry to light cavalry, and he caught up with the last troops. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the people behind knew that it was the Xiliang cavalry chasing after him! They Traveling all night, everyone's energy was not very good at this time. When they saw Xiliang approaching, they couldn't outrun the war horses. Longbow, the same goes for other soldiers of Xiliang. Holding longbow, they launched an attack on the enemy in the distance. Those infantrymen did not expect the scene in front of them. They thought that the other party was going to charge, but what does this mean? The long arrow fell, and a large number of soldiers fell. The long sword was stuck on the ground, and the arrow feathers trembled. There were still some people left on the field, they stared blankly around, the Xiliang cavalry was shooting while running, no one died, they would not turn around to kill, they had more important goals. It took a long time for the soldiers who were standing dumbfounded to react. They could only see the backs of the soldiers of Xiliang, and the cavalry of Xiliang rushed forward all the way. The Acropolis troops were in a panic, and the troops that had been in formation, under the pressure of the Xiliang iron cavalry, began to appear in chaos, and the plain was in chaos. The defenders in the Acropolis went to the city empty, and they retreated in a hurry. The large amount of materials in the city did not retreat with the army, and the civilians in the city were still there. They did not find what happened. Some people lifts the head and looks at the battle flag above the city gate, only to know that this city has fallen into the hands of Xiliang. The first thing for the merchants in the Inn is to get in touch with the Xiliang troops in the city. They know the madness of Xiliang. If the troops of Xiliang misunderstand, they will have nothing to do. They are businessmen and they I came to the northwest to do business! The infantry was in the Acropolis. On the other side, Cheng Zheng received news that he brought a large number of prisoners back to the Acropolis. This is a huge city, but a city without a good city wall fell to Xiliang. hands. Li Xiang is not a bloodthirsty person. The population in the Acropolis is quite large. At present, what Xiliang lacks most is manpower. These all are the basis for the development of Xiliang. To kill so many people outside the customs, there is really no way. If you don't get killed by the other party, the other person is still yourself, and everyone has the answer in their hearts. Jiuyuan City The southern city gate opened wide, and a large number of Jiuyuan City troops entered the city. The generals on the city wall looked worried towards the rear of the army, and the troops behind the acropolis were being attacked by Xiliang cavalry. The Xiliang cavalry did not rampage like before, leaving the Acropolis soldiers who had been preparing for a long time helpless. They really didn't know how to fight against such an enemy! With the horse in hand, the mobility of the Xiliang cavalry More than the soldiers of Jiuyuan County, the soldiers in the rear can only look forward to the arrival of the Xiliang army a little later. I hope that the troops behind the rear can support them for a while longer, and support them for a while! Old Prince stands on the city wall and there are It feels like shooting yourself in the foot. This plan was proposed by him and adopted by the army. When the Acropolis troops go to Jiuyuan City, the defense of Jiuyuan City can be increased. In a city defended by 10,000 people, there are more than 10,000 people on the Xiliang side, which is almost the same as the number of army soldiers guarding the city, even if the quality of the soldiers on the city wall is not as good as that of the city wall. There is a big gap between the people below, but this is defense! Zhuo Bufan returned to the city at night and told him about the plan with Xiliang City. Old Prince felt extremely regretful, very regretful! With the success of Xiliang City's plan, he will get rid of Luo Tiancheng's suppression, with Jiuyuan City in hand, and with the 100,000 horses in Taiyuan, he can directly set up a great formation to confront the Eighth Prince who just arrived! What a pity! Zhuo Bufan doesn't have too many regrets. This time, the prince's plan has succeeded, giving the world the impression that although the Jiuyuan prince is at odds with the prefect, the Jiuyuan prince's mansion will never join forces with foreign enemies! After this battle is over , the two sides may fight again when the Eighth Prince arrives or later, but there will definitely be a battle. The Xiliang army under Li Xiang occupies a county and Jiuyuan City on 1/4/2022. Black City, Acropolis, these two places are in the hands of Xiliang, Jiuyuan City is exposed in front of the Xiliang army, and it is only half a day's journey from Acropolis to Jiuyuan City. With such a close distance, can the City Lord of Jiuyuan City not be worried? What they need now is to hibernate. Anyway, there is a prefect of Xiliang City who wants to move their Jiuyuan Palace. They have to see if Xiliang City agrees. It takes a long time to kill an army of 100,000 people. . Li Xiang led the light cavalry to shoot at a long distance, and never rushed into the formation. They were only 3,000 light cavalry. If they rushed in, they might not be able to get out! This side is nearing the end, and the army led by Li Anlan retreats on the other side. They didn't have much baggage in the first place, so they took the wounded soldiers and left quickly!The army soldiers of the city wall waited for a long time and found that there was no arrow rain in the past, nor the fierce drums of war, everything was very quiet, Then looked towards the camp on the other side, the camp was very quiet, for fear of an ambush, they waited until noon, and there was still no sound! When the troops supported by the other side rushed under the city wall, they only knew that the enemy had retreated. They won the battle to defend the city! When the soldiers in the city saw the reinforcements, there were tears in their eyes. Many people sat on the ground full of corpses and fell into a deep sleep. No one knew their pressure. How big is it. If it weren't for those soldiers from the headquarters of Xiliang who were supporting them, they would have been killed long ago to the point of collapse. The reinforcements saw the tattered city wall and the stench of corpses. It had already entered the summer, and there was a bloody battle for many days. No one on both sides cleaned up the corpses, so there were corpses everywhere. Because of the hot weather, some corpses began to decompose, attracting a large number of mosquitoes. The guarding army soldier sleeps in peace, the army soldier who came to clean up the battlefield, put away the corpses of the soldiers in Xiliang, and pile the corpses of the Jiuyuan City army aside, and these corpses will be buried together. The corpses of the soldiers of Xiliang should be placed in coffins made of wooden boards, and then buried in a Feng Shui Treasure Land near Heicheng. Azure Leaf City The other two battles were almost over, and Gao Yuan, who came under Luo Tiansheng's order, felt that he had been betrayed. He had just fought against Azure Leaf City for a day when he received news from Heicheng that Li Anlan and Luo Tiansheng retreated with the army, but Heicheng was still in the hands of Xiliang City. When the other party retreated, he did not send a scout to inform him, but retreated silently. Gao Yuan was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. You can only take advantage of the night to bring the army to retreat immediately. If they don't retreat, they will not be able to run! A Xiliang iron cavalry runs into Tupo City, and a large number of Xiliang troops appear in Langya City. The troops outside the customs have all arrived! With the retreat of the Great Wall Legion, this nearly a month-long battle was announced to come to an end. The result was that Xiliang City returned with a big victory, Jiuyuan County was defeated, Luo Tiansheng The prestige in Jiuyuan County has dropped greatly! Mainly this time Jiuyuan County lost too many people because of the war. Except for the Mangzi City in Tonghe County, other cities were taken by Xiliang, and the Acropolis The 40,000-strong army was pale, and the Acropolis fell into the hands of Xiliang. No one knows how many men and horses Jiuyuan County lost, and the price paid in this battle in Xiliang is also a lot. More than 5,000 soldiers of the headquarters of Xiliang died in the battle, which is the largest loss since Xiliang. The Seventh Army regiment was even crippled. It would take more than half a year for Heiyun, Luomu, Aza, Zhao Tiezhu, etc. to return to the pre-war battle strength. At the same time, Xiliang occupies Tonghe County, which means that Xiliang and Jiuyuan County cast aside all considerations for face, but Li Xiang doesn't care much, his goal has been achieved. The reason for the big battle this time was the chaos caused by Luo Tiansheng's decision to block the trade between the northwest and the customs! With Tonghe County in hand, Li Xiang opened the door for convenience, as long as it was a caravan You can go to foreign trade, and Shanghai is guarded by the Xiliang army all the way, so you don't need to worry about the ominous beast problem. On the fifth day after the end of the war, Li Huo came to the Acropolis with a thousand cavalry. After the battle, Li Xiang never left the Acropolis, but guarded the Acropolis himself and remodeled the Acropolis! br> "Meet the lord!" Li Huo saluted. Li Xiang's bloodshot eyes saw Li Huo more relaxed: "You finally arrived!" Li Huo was transferred to make him guard the city, Li Xiang believed that Li Huo could Done! "It will take about a month for the reconstruction of the city wall of the Acropolis. I will give you the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. After the city wall of the Acropolis is successfully reconstructed, the army will automatically answer Tupo City!" Li Xiang arranged everything before Li Huolai came: "Tonghe City, the temporary City Lord is Cheng Zheng, and Zhao Tiezhu is temporarily in charge of the Black City, Azure Leaf City is my father-in-law, Kidnapper City is Black Dragon, there are some places in these places. Garrison, if something happens, the army will be controlled by you!" Li Xiang This is equivalent to handing over all the troops in Tonghe County to Li Huo, if others dare not do so, but this is Li Huo, Li Xiang most trusted person. in the heart Among the trusted people, Xiliang recruited far more people than his relatives, including his wife! "Yes!" Li Huo responded. Li Xiang showed a relaxed smile: "I'll leave it to you here, I should go back and rest for a few days after I've been out for more than a month! By the way, pay attention to the transaction situation in the east city of Acropolis!" Acropolis The Dongcheng transaction is the batch of materials that Li Xiang brought back. Among them, there are a lot of jewelry. After Li Xiang selects some beautiful and high-value items, he takes out these items and sells them. What he needs now is gold and silver. With gold and silver, he can recruit a large number of troops, and then unify the Northwest Pass! With a gift for Wu Yating, Li Xiang brought Cheng Jushu two brothers and five hundred personal guards The cavalry left, and the pedestrians all gave way. Seeing the cavalry of the Guards, they knew who was dispatched, Li Xiang of Xiliang City, but everyone prefers to call him the King of Xiliang. Cheng Jushu's two brothers Innate Divine Strength , cultivation technique of Xiliang soldier cultivation, after a single battle strength can be ranked in the front row of the Xiliang army, the most important thing is that the loyalty value of the two has reached the Xiliang soldiers can achieve Click! Li Xiang wants to train these two guys to be his left Right Protector, on the battlefield you never know where the next attack will come from. Cheng Jushu's two brothers are very happy to be by Li Xiang's side, it's an honor, an honor, have you ever seen that other than Mistress and Chief Manager, there is another person who can follow the lord. With one's heart set on speeding home, Li Xiang rode his horse along the official road all the way. He was hungry, eat dry food and drink some cold water. Even if there is a city not far from the road, he can drink a sip of hot water and eat Serve better meals. Azure Leaf City, Wu Jianbo stood in front of a shadowy figure: "I don't know what is the important thing Saintess has come here?" A white lotus Saintess in white cloth said: "There is nothing important, I just want to leave the northwest land , I came here to say goodbye to you, and by the way. From today, you and the people in the Holy Sect in Xiliang City will devote themselves to serving Xiliang, and I have already destroyed your files. , now the only people who know your identities are people from my family. Do your job well!" After Bailian Saintess finished speaking, she put a lotus order on the table: "If you see this order in the future, please also ask Lord Wu to help you. Help as much as possible!" Wu Jianbo picked up the lotus decree in both hands: "If it wasn't for Holy Sect's assistance, Wu Mouyan would be here today!" "Then don't let it go!" Bailian Saintess said, don't hurry to leave, disappeared for a while, Leaving Wu Jianbo alone, he took away the White Lotus Order. Outside the compound, Bailian Saintess glanced at the courtyard behind, no one thought that Xiliang would soar to the sky, she was right in this step, and then it will be the development of Xiliang! As for Wu Jianbo , Wu Jianbo's current status can only be cooperation, and she has never thought of coercing the other party with her previous kindness, which will only suffer from both sides, and it will be difficult for anyone. She can help Wu Jianbo to a higher position, but not now, we have to see the development of Xiliang next, the battle strength of Xiliang is very strong, but in terms of fine work, it can't compete with White Lotus Religion, a veteran force that has been active for countless years Compare. 这就是她的优势!
