Fortunately, the tiger father has no dog son, and Li Zelin is not an ordinary person now. Facing Feng Yi's crazy attack, with the help of Li Chen, he repelled Feng Yi's attacks one by one.

In the military camp, Li Zelin and Li Chen were sitting, and neither of them looked very good-looking.

"Major General, if we go back now, the border pass will definitely be lost and Zhao will be in danger. But if we don't go, General..." Li Chen couldn't help but sigh. Now they were in a dilemma of choice.

Li Zelin sighed and said: "If my father is still here, I definitely don't want to ignore everything and go back to Handan, because doing so will put the Zhao country in danger. My father said that no matter what time, we must proceed from the overall situation. Think about the greater good!”

"The general has served the country and the people all his life, but now he has ended up like this. This is heartbreaking!" Li Chen's eyes were full of anger.

There were only him and Li Zelin in the tent, so they could naturally speak their minds.

"In this life, whether it is for fame and fortune, or for protecting our family and country, we always need a reason to persist. Since my father has set an example, there is no reason for me to become a person who only pursues fame and fortune. People!" Li Zelin said.

When Li Chen heard this, his hands under his sleeves clenched tightly. He knew what it would take to make such a decision.

But Li Mu is such a person, and Li Zelin, following his father's example, will also embark on such a path.

However, the current situation in Zhao State is not that good. In the end, what will happen to Li Zelin?

Li Chen didn't dare to think about it, because Li Mu's ending was indeed suffocating.

He is just a military general and has not read many books. I don’t know that this has been the case since ancient times.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

In the past two days, Zhao Guochaotang was in extreme chaos.

The people in Jingzhao Mansion did not give up looking for Xie Yunxiao.

On this day, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of Zhao State was still in court in the morning, and the soldiers guarding the city stood on the city wall and looked far away as usual.

Suddenly, in the forest a few miles away, a group of birds flew up in fright. Smoke and dust enveloped the forest. A violent stir was heard along with the neighing of horses. For a moment, the Zhao soldiers on the city wall panicked.

"Hurry into the palace and report to the king that a large number of troops are coming to Handan!" someone shouted urgently.

"Don't panic, find out the origin of the army first!" the guard commander who defended the city shouted loudly.

Not long after, it was discovered that the army approaching Handan City turned out to be the Ningguo army.

Many soldiers panicked instantly. They really didn't understand why a large number of Ningguo's troops suddenly and quietly arrived at Handan City.

In the palace, above the main hall, King Zhao felt a little upset while listening to the arguments of the civil and military ministers below.

If he were not King Zhao, he would definitely not want to hear the arguments of these ministers.

Just then, a sharp cry came from outside, "Urgent report! Urgent report!"

The sound drowned out the voices of the civil and military ministers arguing in the main hall, and many civil and military ministers were instantly shocked.

Because they understand what this sound means.

The soldiers who came in gasped for air, knelt down eagerly on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, a large number of Ning troops have appeared outside Handan City, and they are heading towards Handan City!"

"What?" King Zhao's expression suddenly changed, and the civil and military ministers below were completely stunned. The hall was instantly quiet.

An oppressive silence enveloped everyone's heart.

At this moment, everyone's hearts felt as if there was a huge mountain with no top visible.

"What's going on? Why did Ning Guo's army suddenly appear in Handan?" There was a hint of panic in King Zhao's voice.

At this moment, Guo Kai's mind was also confused, but after all, it was the prime minister of a country who stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the situation is urgent now. There is no time to find out how Ning's army came. The top priority is to send troops. Divide into two groups, one is to mobilize the Handan garrison and defend Handan, the other is to send people to move reinforcements as soon as possible!"

King Zhao regained his composure, and he couldn't help but feel secretly ashamed that he was not as calm as Guo Kai in this situation.

"Yes, that's right!" King Zhao said.

Then, King Zhao began to make arrangements and sent people out to ask for reinforcements. As the commander-in-chief, the specific orders were executed by Prince Zhao Qian, and Prime Minister Guo Kai served as an assistant.

Although there are less than 20,000 troops stationed in Handan, it is not a problem to hold out for more than ten days with the help of geographical advantages.

Many ministers and King Zhao felt that reinforcements would definitely arrive within ten days.

Xie Yunxiao is currently in Yayuan, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to his plan.

Xiao An hurried in, with indescribable excitement in his eyes, "Master, General Wang has led an army of 100,000 people and has arrived outside Handan City. Next, we will work together from inside and outside to capture Handan before Zhao's reinforcements arrive!"

"You kid, your brain is very bright right now!" Xie Yunxiao chuckled, and then, with an indescribable sharp light in his eyes, he said: "Even if we cooperate internally and externally to capture Handan, the Zhao army is still there. It’s quite a trouble!”

"What does the young master mean?" Xiao An asked.

Xie Yunxiao said: "Since we can solve the problem at once, then we will solve the problem at once!"

Xiao An didn't know Xie Yunxiao's plan, but Xie Yunxiao's ability could be trusted.

At this moment, there was indescribable excitement in his eyes.

If this plan could succeed, the situation facing Ning Guo would definitely be very different.

Even if Chu State sends troops again, Ning State will not be afraid.

Moreover, the territory of Ning State will also exceed that of Chu State.

"It will definitely succeed!" Xiao An squeezed his hands tightly. He once only wanted to be Xie Yunxiao's bodyguard, but he never expected that his life would change because of Xie Yunxiao.

Now that this road has been opened and he has taken steps, he can only work hard and move forward. As for what the result will be, he is too lazy to think about it for the time being.

After Xie Yunxiao killed Li Mu, he also involved Guo Kai. Firstly, he wanted to completely disrupt the Zhao court, but also to buy time for Wang Hui's army to arrive.

As early as when Xie Yunxiao returned to Xianyang, the capital of Ning State, Wang Hui's army was already stationed in the capital of Han State.

Now that the army was approaching Handan, Wang Hui raised his head and looked at the royal city of Zhao Kingdom, with an inexplicable color in his eyes.

Soon, the territory of Zhao State will also be included in the territory of Ning State.

"You have already paved the road. Since you let me walk, I will walk well!" Wang Hui stood in front of the three armies, with his right hand on the hilt of his sword.

"General, the reorganization of the three armies has been completed!" Wang Hui's general Dai Qing stepped forward. He was at the peak of the Seventh Realm, and his eyes were filled with indescribable excitement.

"Okay, Dai Qing!" Wang Hui shouted loudly, and the eyes of many soldiers were shining brightly.

"The general is here!" Dai Qing stepped forward, his suit of armor glowing faintly in the sun, exuding an inexplicable aura.

"You lead the main force to attack the city!" Wang Hui said.

"The last general takes orders!" Dai Qing replied, and then Wang Hui shouted: "Wang Xuan!"

"The general is here!" A man of about thirty years old came forward. He was the commander of the Zuo Army, and his cultivation was at the peak of the Seventh Realm. He was from the Wang family, but he relied on his own ability to sit in the current position. Rather than because of his status, the military officers and soldiers were very impressed by him.

"You bring 10,000 archers and 5,000 shield bearers as support!" Wang Hui ordered again.

After receiving the order, the three armies each went to their respective positions. Then, Wang Hui ascended to the command position of the central army, waving the command flag in his hand, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies began to act in an orderly manner according to his command.

After Zhao Qian received the inheritance from the Human Emperor Cauldron, his cultivation level is now above the Eighth Realm.

With the help of the human royal way, his cultivation has been completely consolidated.

Guo Kai and many generals accompanied Zhao Qian on the city wall.

"Prince, the Ning army is coming in force. In the current situation, we can only defend the city and wait for reinforcements to arrive. Everything can be solved!" Guo Kai said.

Zhao Qian glanced sideways at Zhao Guo's treacherous prime minister. He thought in his heart, you treacherous prime minister must have said this because of panic in his heart, right? When I ascend the throne as king, I will definitely find a way to get rid of you!

"The Prime Minister's suggestion is excellent!" Zhao Qian paused, then looked at the generals on the left and right, and shouted loudly: "Archers are ready, kerosene, rolling stones, and rolling logs are in place!"

The generals in the army were each responsible for one task. After hearing Zhao Qian's order, they all took action immediately.

When Ning's army came within a hundred feet of the city, the archers' bows and arrows flew out like locusts.

As an auxiliary army, Wang Xuan ordered the shield soldiers to come forward to form a shield battle.

The dense arrows were all blocked by the shield array. Although the march of the army was stopped and slowed down, it still moved forward.

At the same time, Wang Xuan ordered the archers to prepare giant crossbows. The sound could not be heard, and huge arrows flew out and hit the city wall in front.

The sound of rumbling could not help but spread, and a faint halo of light lit up on the city wall, blocking those huge arrows.

"It's disrespectful to come and go without reciprocating, so bring our giant crossbow up too!" Zhao Qian shouted loudly.

This is no ordinary giant crossbow, it has extremely powerful runes engraved on it.

In an instant, I saw the luminous arrows shooting out like meteors.

The shield array changed its formation, and the power of five thousand people gathered on the shield, forming a semi-circular arc of light that knocked out the arrows one by one.

You came and went, and the fight lasted for nearly half a stick of incense. The army finally advanced to a distance of about thirty feet below the city.

Dai Qing, as the main force, shouted loudly: "Set up the formation!"

The sound came out, and many soldiers moved in response. In less than a moment, they formed a large formation.

In normal times, these soldiers train every day and dare not neglect it. But now on the battlefield, their speed of movement and advantages in all aspects are indescribable.

At the center of the three armies, a shocking cry suddenly came out, and the strength of many soldiers gathered together and turned into a golden roc.

"Brothers of the Great Sun Golden Peng Formation have been practicing diligently every day, and it finally came in handy today!" Wang Hui's eyes were shining brightly.

Over the years, he has been training troops at Mount Xiao, and he has practiced not only defensive formations, but also the Golden Roc Formation of the Sun, which is one of the most powerful offensive formations among all the formations.
