"Your Majesty, didn't you say that the Modao Army would accompany you? Why didn't you see them?"
This was what confused Tian Chong the most. It was just that he never found a chance to ask along the way. It had been four or five days since he came out, and he finally couldn't help his curiosity.
"They are rare soldiers. Of course they should appear at the most important time. Don't worry, they will naturally appear when the time comes!"
Liu Deng said with a mysterious look.
"Your Majesty, we are not far from Ziwu Valley. According to our current journey, we estimate that we will be there in three days!"
Tian Chong said worriedly.
Although the Modao Army does not have many people, the problem is that their equipment and horses cost a lot of money.
If they were directly ambushed by the Huns outside Ziwu Valley in advance, they would really be beaten by meat buns.
"Don't worry, they are just copper peas, the Huns haven't broken their teeth yet!"
The equipment of these people was tested by Liu Deng himself. The Huns' bows and arrows could not penetrate the armor within 20 steps.
Liu Deng didn't know what the Huns could do against them. What's more, they were hiding in the dark and were simply a surprise force.
This sharpest knife is hidden in the dark. When the soldiers come into contact, it will naturally catch the Huns off guard and suffer a big loss.
The Mo Dao Army, which appeared hundreds of years in advance, shed blood for the first time, and of course it will leave a deep impression on the Huns!
"As long as your Majesty has an idea, I wonder how your Majesty plans to pass through Ziwu Valley?"
Ziwu Valley is a very dangerous place. If you want to reach Shangjun, you must pass here.
When passing from Jinyang, there are cliffs on both sides. After entering the valley, there are high mountains on both sides, with only a passage in the middle.
This place was naturally a place for the cavalry to set up an ambush. The cavalry charged down from high places, and the infantry could not stop their charge at all.
They didn't even need to swing their swords, just relying on the speed of their horses was enough to make the infantry in the valley abandon their armor.
For the Huns, this was a battlefield given to them by God. It was simply impossible to win in the wild.
"You will know when the time comes. March quickly and try to reach Ziwu Valley within three days. Li Guang won't be able to hold on for much longer!"
This time the Huns came with great force, and the flying pigeons delivering messages along the way made Liu Deng increasingly worried about Li Guang's safety.
In just a few days, he had only 10,000 capable soldiers left in his hands. The Huns were uncharacteristically this time, and they actually had siege weapons like Yunlou in their hands.
This was something that was simply unimaginable before. When they came, they only brought a few rush vehicles. Therefore, Li Guang sent people to risk their lives and go out of the city, paying a huge price to burn those few vehicles.
But who knew that after just one night, there were suddenly more than a dozen Xianyun Towers in the Huns' camp.
This thing is like a moving ladder, except that the ladder not only has hooks on it, but also a huge carriage at the top.
The carriage is wrapped with wooden boards. Soldiers attacking the city can hide behind the wooden boards. When Yunlou sees the city wall, the soldiers inside can directly open the wooden boards and jump out.
Although Li Guang resisted desperately, the Huns were not afraid of death, and they were almost able to attack the city wall several times.
The most dangerous time, the Huns actually sent more than thirty cavalry directly. If the soldiers had not sacrificed their lives for their lives, Yunzhong City would have been lost by now.
As time goes by, more and more miscellaneous siege weapons are in the hands of the opponent, and Li Guang's psychology becomes more and more uncertain. If this speed continues, the casualties of soldiers will become faster and faster, and soon He will not even have a fighting weapon in his hands.
So in the past few days, he would send flying pigeon messages outside the city every day, hoping that the imperial court would organize reinforcements to come to the rescue as soon as possible.
But he also knew in his heart that there were only so many soldiers to fight in the country of Dai. There were a total of 7 cities that needed to be guarded along the long border.
After distributing the originally small number of troops to seven cities, there were only a handful of mobile troops left.
What's more, from the mouths of several captured Hun officers, Li Guang also learned some news that made him almost desperate.
The Huns were divided into two groups, and the other group was attacking Yanmen fiercely. In a short period of time, Yanmen would not be able to send a single soldier to rescue him.
All we can do is wait for Liu Deng to organize reinforcements to come to the rescue.
However, Liu Deng only has 10,000 recruits at his disposal. Can these recruits who have never been on the battlefield really do it?
They were all recruited by Li Guang personally. Li Guang knew very well about their level. Many of these people were actually just ordinary farmers more than a month ago.
Don't look at how well-trained they are now, it's because they are on the training ground.
When they actually go to the battlefield, after witnessing the brutality of the battlefield, God knows what they will do.
There are no generals left to fight in the Dai Kingdom. If a civilian official comes to rescue them, once these soldiers blow up the camp, the consequences will be disastrous...
The reinforcements that came to rescue were destroyed, which would be a devastating blow to the confidence of the defenders in the city.
Despite the fierce offensive of the Huns in the past few days, Li Guang always had an intuition that these Huns were not actually using all their strength. The reason why they pressed forward step by step was to encircle the point and bring reinforcements.
To weaken Dai's effective strength to the greatest extent, if Dai's soldiers suffer too many casualties in this war, I am afraid that for a long period of time, Dai will have no choice but to let the Huns take what they want.
But after all, Li Guang is just a young general, and he is currently in a high position despite having no merit. No matter what he says at this time, the ministers will not believe it.
So he could only bury this conjecture silently in his heart...
"The Bank of China said that I have fully implemented your plan. Do you think there will really be someone from Dai Guo to rescue Li Guang?"
The ambush in Ziwu Valley has been given for many days, but so far there has been no harvest, which makes Yi Zhixie feel a little uncomfortable.
"King Zuo Guli, please rest assured. I believe that Dai Guo will definitely send someone to rescue him. Otherwise, if the city of Shangjun is destroyed, this king will not be able to explain to the world!"
There are hundreds of thousands of people in this city. If he fails to rescue them and the city of Shangjun falls, just these words from Youyou will be enough to put him, the acting king, beyond redemption.
