Li Jing's back was dripping with cold sweat after receiving this shocking scene. The generals on the side also swallowed their saliva. They also saw the scene just now and saw what happened. They were also in the True Yuan realm. How could a strong man fail to see that the old man who just appeared was in the innate realm.
Unexpectedly, the Western Turks would send a Xiantian realm expert to assassinate the commander-in-chief.
When I think about it, if the commander is assassinated, it will collapse that day. The army will definitely be in chaos. After the chaos, I am afraid that the Western Turks will also have a back-up plan, and this Western Expedition will definitely end in failure!
Not only will the Western Expedition fail, but even the Eastern Turkic territories they finally recovered may be reoccupied by the Western Turks. As for whether Dingxiang City can be defended, only God knows!
Thinking about these terrible consequences makes everyone afraid.
"Commander, that old man just now is..." Yuchi Jingde asked in a low voice, but he didn't say it out loud, but everyone understood what it meant!
Li Jing got off the horse, nodded towards Yuchi Jingde and said, "Have you seen who the person who just rescued me is?"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all shook their heads.
Just now, their attention was focused on the old man. As for the person who appeared behind Li Jing, they really didn't see it!
But even if you are afraid of seeing it, you can't see it clearly. The Xiantian realm can hide your appearance. If you don't want to see it, you can't see it!
"Send my order to the general, and the army will camp on the spot to rest and set out again tomorrow!" Li Jing ordered to Li Ji who was standing aside.
Li Ji nodded and went down to work!
After the camp was set up, Li Jing gathered the generals in the Chinese army's tent!
Everyone knew why Li Jing summoned them!
Everyone looked a little ugly when they entered the tent, but they didn't complain. Instead, they found a place to sit down.
Seeing everyone gathered together, Li Jing said: "I didn't expect that the Western Turks would encounter such a thing during the Western Expedition. The Western Turks actually sent out Xiantian realm experts to assassinate me. Fortunately, there are people on our side to resist, otherwise I'm afraid today will be very bad!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, today is indeed dangerous enough, a sneak attack by a strong Xiantian realm man is no joke!
"Commander, do you know that there are powerful people in the Xiantian realm guarding us?" Hou Junji asked.
Li Jing shook his head and said: "How could I possibly know that kind of powerful divine dragon that never sees its end? Your Majesty may know that this person is also sent by Your Majesty to protect us."
"Fortunately, we have such a back-up, otherwise we may have to withdraw our troops during the Western Expedition!" What Li Jing said was obvious. If he didn't have a back-up, then once he died, the army would probably have to withdraw!
The generals were also sighing. The reason why they set up camp to rest at this moment was to calm everyone's nervousness. In addition, they were also waiting for the mysterious person. If he could make friends with such a person, it would definitely be a big deal for Li Jing. happy event.
However, Li Jing's waiting was destined to be in vain. One night passed, nothing happened, and the person waiting did not appear.
Although he didn't wait for anyone, Li Jing wasn't too upset. It was a kindness for someone to save him, and it didn't matter if he didn't see him.
It is impossible to stop the Western Expedition. Since the Western Turks' backhand has been stopped, Li Jing naturally has nothing to fear.
Even being assassinated aroused the ferocity of the generals, and they rushed to lead the army to attack the Western Turkic King's City.
The obstacles they encountered along the way were swept away as if they were overwhelming, unable to stop them even half a step.
In just two days, Li Jing's army arrived and set up camp thirty miles away from the royal city, preparing to attack the royal city after a day's rest!
In the Western Turkic King's City, Khan's face was gloomy. He had just gone to meet the Western Turkic man, that is, the old man.
But what shocked him was that the old man was actually injured, and the injury was serious.
How is this possible? This is an innately strong person, how could he be injured?
How could such a thing happen in the assassination of Li Jing?
Under Khan's inquiry, the old man roughly explained the whole story.
No one expected that there was a master of the same level among the Tang army, and he was more powerful than the old man. Fortunately, they were both innate, so it was impossible to kill him, but the injury was unavoidable.
