"I was the one who suggested that the prince go into battle in person." Xiao Chen said.
"You bastard, I'll fight you!" Gong Shouli's face turned pale with anger, and he jumped up to confront Xiao Chen regardless of the bandages on his body.
"Shou Li, if it is a triumph, I will come to see you first." Li Qiu said, "If there is a mistake, this battle will be left to you and Xiao Chen. Don't let me die in vain, and don't let your father down."
After saying that, he smiled at Gong Shouli and left with a determined and calm attitude... His back looked very majestic.
"Old Gong, I'm leaving too. You take good care of yourself and come back... Oh, you dare to murder me?" Before Xiao Chen could finish his words, Gong Shouli grabbed a porcelain bowl on the bedside and threw it at him. Even if he is in trouble, he runs away.
Gong Shouli would not murder Xiao Shuai at all, but impeachment was certain. Because he was too angry, he scolded Xiao Chen in a secret speech, and even used a lot of foul language regardless of the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers.
Of course, he also greatly appreciated the performance of Prince Li Qiu. If the emperor has a son like King Xuanping, why worry about the instability of the country and the unrest in the world?
"Brother Xiao, seriously, why are you telling Gong Shouli this?" Li Qiu said to Xiao Chen after coming out, "He will definitely scold you with his father."
"Haha, I just want him to scold me. Otherwise, how can I do it this time just to perform meritorious service without making any mistakes? Either don't make a mistake, or make a big mistake. Encourage and force the prince to go to the battlefield. This crime can surpass all others. Thanks for the credit...The Emperor will have room for maneuver in the future." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Brother Xiao, you are thinking too deeply, aren't you?" Li Qiu felt a chill on the back of his neck as he listened.
"I don't want to play this trick, but if I don't play, others will play to death." Xiao Chen said, "We are here to risk our lives with Duan Fengnian, but there are many people waiting behind us with knives. No one is paying attention. , I’ll stab you from behind!”
"Sigh... It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows." Li Qiu sighed, "If you go by what you say, Brother Xiao, then no matter whether I win or lose here, I will still be foolish and rash in advancing. Do you think you are being foolhardy?"
"It's a small mistake to listen and believe, because you have never led an army before. Rushing in rashly is a big sin, but it can also be a great achievement. It depends on what the emperor thinks. As for bravery, but no strategy, haha, no strategy. That's fine, it's better than having a plan." There was something in Xiao Chen's words, but something else.
"Brother Xiao, what do you mean by this?" Li Qiu said that I didn't quite understand.
"The most taboo thing for the emperor is the word 'strategy'. Why do you, a passionate young man, need such a deep strategy? Just showing bravery is enough. It is because you are young that you make mistakes. You made a mistake, Only the emperor can teach you. If you have no plans, the emperor can cultivate you..." Xiao Chen said.
"Brother Xiao, I'm so glad that you are on my side, otherwise I would have to kill you!" Li Qiu said something from the bottom of his heart.
"I'm not on your side, I'm on the side of Jiangshan Sheji. It's not for you, but for the people of the world..." Xiao Chen said deeply.
"But what do you mean by insisting that I lead the troops into battle this time? It feels like you are siding with Duan Fengnian? Although I am not afraid, I always feel uneasy. If I really die on the battlefield, everything will be ruined. There is no way to mention Ang!" Li Qiu said.
"I can help you fight, but you also need to establish prestige, especially in the military. As you said, Prince Li Shi is disabled, but he can go to the front line in person, and he almost kills himself for the country. You have a lot of arms. Why can't the martial arts of many legs be so high?" Xiao Chen said.
"That's what I say, but being good at martial arts and going to the battlefield are two different things, right? Brother Xiao, you are also very good at martial arts, but I feel like you can't show it well on the battlefield, not to mention that there are Xiao Xinghan and Nangong Wuhua on the opposite side. Where are the two great masters?" Li Qiu was still worried about his life.
"You kid, you want to become famous, but you are also afraid of death. Can you do it? You have to take risks, it depends on whether it is worth it... Don't you just want Xiao Ye? I will send him to follow you Okay?" Xiao Chen said.
"Hehe, Brother Xiao, you know my little brother's thoughts. If Xiao Ye goes, I won't be afraid anymore... Also, Brother Xiao, if you don't go, is there anything else you can lend me? I'll pay it back when you get back. You." Li Qiu grinned.
"You kid is really pushing your limits. You're going to push your nose and face. No excuses. You're going to charge into the battle. I also have to supervise the battle at the top of the city. There's no guarantee that there won't be any cold shots..." Xiao Chen refused sternly.
At Mao's hour, rice was made, and more than 10,000 soldiers had a hearty meal. At the beginning of the day, they put on their uniforms, and at the beginning of the day, they gathered together, and set off at the same time!
The Yanyun Army's 1,000 heavy infantry, 1,000 pikemen, and 1,000 musketeers left the city first, using more than 100 new armored ballistas as barriers to set up a square formation.
The Langya Army doesn't understand Xiao Chen's intentions. You have a solid city and no defense. What does it mean to come out in formation in the middle of the night?
This must not be a rash attack, because the intuitive judgment is a trap... So only a small group of light cavalry was sent to harass, but they were shot back by a round of bows and arrows from the city.
Duan Fengnian was also surprised when he heard the news. What is Li Qiu doing?
Sending out thousands of infantrymen to set up formations in the middle of the night, what kind of trick was this?
The generals of Langya County don't know what kind of trick this is. Anyway, there is no such thing in the art of war. Looking at their slow and unhurried look, it seems like they are deliberately trying to attract us to attack...
Don't fall for their tricks.
The main reason is that there is no reason for these soldiers to come out. If they want to attack, why do they need to form an array?
Besides, aren't you good at attacking during the day? Are you so busy in the dark?
Some generals thought that the other side might be digging a trap and setting up a trap to stop the horse, but this was unreasonable and too blatant, right? And they didn’t even bring shovels!
There are only more than a hundred carts spread out in front of the formation. This means they are going to fight with us, but your city has not collapsed yet!
Duan Fengnian and the others couldn't imagine that Xiao Chen and the others would want to capture Guangtou Mountain even if they tried their best. That's why they were so confused.
In the midst of doubts, I suddenly heard the sound of iron drums at the top of Wolong City. Immediately, the city gate opened wide, and tens of thousands of cavalry rushed out at lightning speed!
Damn it, you really want to attack. Why, you see that you can’t defend anymore, so you want to fight to the death and try your best to fight us?
Because according to various intelligence, there are currently only more than 20,000 people in the city! During the daytime battle today, many Langya Army officers recognized the opposing generals as Lin Feixiong and Zhang Heng, and the people defending the city were also soldiers from the White Dragon Guard.
Everyone used to be under the command of Fengyang King Li Feng, and many of them were also from the White Dragon Guard, so they were very familiar with each other. They even recognized each other during the siege and exchanged greetings.
The brothers who once drank and chatted happily are now facing each other with swords and fighting to the death!
