Tianlang Pass.
General Li Wenbing stood on the tower with a gloomy face, and the soldiers around him all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The Tiger and Wolf Army was actually defeated, and completely defeated.
There were less than 300 soldiers left out of 3,000.
Even the prince was injured.
The being who was hailed as a military god in Dali and his tiger and wolf army were almost completely wiped out. This was tantamount to the destruction of the myth.
One can imagine.
The Southwest Allied Forces have not yet arrived, but the hearts of these guarding soldiers have already sunk to the bottom.
Li Wenbing was no exception. He used to disdain the Southwest Allied Forces, but now it's completely different.
"Everyone should be very alert and be prepared for enemy attacks at any time."
He gave a few instructions and quickly retreated to the camp not far away.
In the camp, a group of tiger and wolf soldiers were receiving treatment. They looked extremely miserable. Some were covered in blood and bruised. Some were covered with arrows and missing arms and legs. Almost none of them were perfect.
But even so, they were lucky because their lives were saved.
And those who couldn't come back...
When Li Wenbing saw this scene, his face turned pale.
This is the tiger and wolf army!
The most powerful legion in the southwest of Dali, the legion that is most proud of, are all elites selected from the major military camps, but now...
Duan Zhenglong was also looking at these soldiers, his arm had been bandaged.
Compared to others, his injuries were undoubtedly minor.
Just looking at his subordinates with only this little left, this kind of psychological trauma is unimaginable.
But he was the King of Dali Zhenbei after all. With a strong murderous intent in his eyes, he asked: "Where is Lin Qingfeng's army? Is there any reward for the spies?"
After defeating his own army of three thousand tigers and wolves, there is no doubt that the opponent will pursue the victory and take the Tianlang Pass in one go.
He was careless at Hufeng Gorge, but at Tianlang Pass, he would not be careless again.
He must win the opponent.
To avenge the dead tiger and wolf army.
Li Wenbing said quickly: "Back to the prince, a spy came to report that Lin Qingfeng has led an army towards Tianlang Pass. It is not clear where they have arrived yet, but it should be soon!"
Duan Zhenglong said with a gloomy face, "Let's explore again!"
"Report!"
At this moment, a spy came to report quickly. Duan Zhenglong rushed out and asked urgently: "How is the situation?"
"Your Majesty, the Southwest Allied Forces are still on the way."
Duan Zhenglong had murderous intent in his eyes and asked again: "Where are you now?"
"Back to my lord, they were marching very slowly, stopping and stopping. They had just left Hufeng Gorge less than ten miles away."
Duan Zhenglong was startled for a moment and frowned. It had been a while since he came to Tianlang Pass. Normally, the opponent should have arrived long ago. Even if the battlefield was cleared and the harvest was sorted out, it wouldn't take so long.
Pursuing victory is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so what does it mean to be so slow?
Li Wenbing asked: "Did they not plan to attack the city? After all, there are not enough troops. There are only three thousand people. I'm afraid..."
He originally thought that an ambush with three thousand soldiers might be possible, but siege would not be enough.
Just thinking of the tragic situation of the Tiger and Wolf Army, I swallowed it back.
Duan Zhenglong did not answer, but just asked: "Where are the frontline troops?"
"The frontline army is marching at full speed. According to the current marching speed, it will soon catch up with the Southwest Allied Forces. However, the Lichao army in Nanyi Pass is chasing the frontline army from behind..."
The situation is like a race at the moment.
Lin Bai's three thousand soldiers were at the front, Dali's frontline army was in the middle, and after that, there were nine thousand Southwest Allied Forces and Zhu Tong's army.
Duan Zhenglong had a vague premonition because the frontline troops were trapped in the middle.
However, one end is heavy and the other is light.
Lin Qingfeng only had three thousand soldiers on his side. Although the equipment was powerful, if it was not an ambush, it would not be as exaggerated as imagined.
There are more than 20,000 troops on the front line, nearly 30,000, almost ten times.
It can also defeat Lin Qingfeng's three thousand soldiers.
Unless they get another ambush, then...
etc! ambush?
Could it be that the other party wants to repeat the same trick? Is that why the marching speed is so slow? Just to blind yourself?
not good!
Duan Zhenglong's face instantly turned livid.
"Report!" At this moment, another spy came to report, "Prince Qi, Lin Qingfeng's three thousand soldiers suddenly turned around and returned to Hufeng Gorge, and..."
"And what?"
Duan Zhenglong asked anxiously.
"And there are not three thousand soldiers, less than half at most, and more than half are scarecrows wearing armor. Some are simply branches covered with armor. We only found out after they turned around and abandoned these scarecrows."
What?
As soon as these words came out, Duan Zhenglong's face turned completely white, less than half of it.
In other words, the other half is still ambushing in Hufeng Gorge, waiting for the arrival of the frontline army. If this half quickly returns, they can still set up an ambush at the exit of Hufeng Gorge.
"Quick! Notify the frontline troops immediately."
Li Wenbing's face turned pale and he said: "Your Majesty, it's too late. According to the time, the frontline army should be arriving soon."
Duan Zhenglong's teeth chattered, and his face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from his face.
"Assemble the army immediately and rush to support."
"this……"
Li Wenbing's expression changed. There were only 5,000 soldiers left in Tianlang Pass itself. How many more soldiers would be left if they went to support them?
Once the battle ahead is unfavorable and the army approaches, it will be impossible to hold on.
"My lord, even if you go now, it's too late. What if..."
Duan Zhenglong's face darkened, "What should we do? Are we watching the frontline army being attacked in the belly and turning a blind eye?"
"That's not what I meant, it's just..."
Li Wenbing was also troubled and said: "There are nearly 30,000 troops on the front line. Even if the Southwest Allied Forces ambush, it shouldn't be a big deal."
With more than 30,000 people versus 3,000 people, in Li Wenbing's view, even an ambush would have little effect.
However, he had not experienced the previous battle and did not know how powerful Zhuge Liannu and Vulcan Wrath were.
But Duan Zhenglong is different.
He knows this very well.
Moreover, although the frontline army has nearly 30,000 troops, in that narrow canyon, the numerical advantage cannot be used at all. As long as the Southwest Allied Forces rush out like before, everyone will die.
The tiger and wolf army were able to rush out because the tiger and wolf army were brave and fearless.
Although there are many troops on the front line, they may not be able to rush out under the same circumstances. It is good not to be frightened.
What's more, this time, there are more southwestern coalition forces behind them.
One can imagine.
"Immediately mobilize an army of four thousand and go with me to support you. You can lead a thousand soldiers to stay at Tianlang Pass."
Duan Zhenglong made a decisive decision. The situation of the frontline troops was critical and there was no need to delay.
Although it was too late, as long as the frontline army could hold on for a little longer and wait for their reinforcements to arrive and attack from both sides, they would definitely be able to break the situation.
Maybe it can also deal a heavy blow to the Southwest Allied Forces.
Even if it doesn't work, as long as the frontline army can be rescued, then this battle is not over yet.
Otherwise, there is really no need to fight.
"Walk!"
He immediately left quickly.
