"Since Yuanbao Mountain belongs to us now, let's just wait here for them. I think when Tuoba Lie comes back, we can give him a big surprise!"
Although Li Guang also felt that Luan Bu's face needed a beating now, he still said with a smile.
"It's a pity that the king and the others can't keep up. If the king and the others can force them up from behind, this old boy will have to suffer a big loss this time!"
After listening to Li Guang's words, Luan Bu licked his lips and said with some regret.
"Who says it isn't? But things are already like this, so let's just wait patiently!"
This is indeed a good opportunity to annihilate Tuoba Lie, but in detail, the risk is equally high.
The main reason is that the quality of Yan's army is really unstable.
Even veteran generals like Li Guang and Luan Bu cannot be sure whether these Yan people are reliable or not.
It would be fine if they could stop the Wuhuan people, but if they couldn't, it would be a disastrous defeat.
Especially since Liu Deng is still in the army of Yan State, if anything happens to Liu Deng then, all of them will really die.
"They are both princes of the Liu family, so why are there such big differences in their lives?"
Seeing Li Guang's wry smile, Luan Bu couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
"General, be careful!"
Li Guang was stunned and quickly lowered his voice and said.
"I made a mistake!"
Luan Bu also reacted immediately. Indeed, this matter was not something he could talk about casually.
This kind of thing can be big or small. If someone grabs you by the pigtails, although it won't lead to the confiscation of your family and the annihilation of your clan, it will be a bit of a problem.
At this moment, Tuoba Lie is also on his way.
Hearing that there were traces of the Dai army near Yuanbaoshan, Tuoba Lie felt something bad from the bottom of his heart.
After all, the location of Yuanbaoshan was so crucial that he did not dare to have any contempt for it.
Although there were ten thousand troops left there, he really felt a little unsure if he were to face the Shenwu Army or Mo Dao Army of the previous generation.
If they were blocked in the middle of the road, even if they could escape by chance, all the seizures this time would probably be lost.
As for the Yan soldiers behind him, he didn't pay attention at all.
It's okay if those people don't catch up. If they really dare to catch up, will they not be able to defeat Liu Deng or Liu Jia?
What he didn't expect was that less than two hours later, he received a report from the probing horse behind him.
"What did you say? Those Han people actually followed!"
The corners of Tuoba Lie's mouth twitched.
These Yan people are really brave enough. Even if the Dai army appears near Yuanbao Mountain, they are all infantry after all. Why do they dare to bite their backs like this?
Aren't you afraid that you will turn around and catch them all in one go?
"How many people are they?"
Tuoba Lie gritted his teeth and then asked with a gloomy face.
"Reporting back to the king, their number should be at least fifty thousand. Our people are not too close. This number is only approximate..."
"Fifty thousand people? Don't worry about them for now, keep going! If they dare to continue to follow, then go back and kill them!"
Tuoba Lie sneered.
We are not far away from White Wolf City now. If we turn back rashly, even if we can defeat the 50,000 of them, there should still be many people who can escape back.
If they dare to continue to follow tonight or tomorrow morning, that will be the time for them to show off their talents.
Behind them, Liu Deng led the army and advanced towards Yuanbao Mountain unhurriedly.
The sun in the sky was so poisonous that if it weren't for the ice basin in the carriage, even Liu Deng wouldn't be able to hold on.
"I remember there is a town ahead on the map. Let the brothers take a break and drink some water before leaving in the afternoon!"
Looking up at the sun in the sky, Liu Deng gave an order casually.
"promise!"
Shunzi responded, and then hurried forward to deliver the order.
"His Royal Highness the King has given an order for the whole army to speed up and rest in Xikou Town ahead!"
Marching under the huge sun is really hard work. When they heard that they could rest after arriving at the place, all the soldiers were inexplicably excited.
The speed of the entire march suddenly became faster again. However, half an hour later, when the entire Xikou Town appeared in front of them, the entire army fell into complete silence.
"Your Majesty, Xikou Town has arrived..."
Among the 50,000 troops, there were only 500 cavalry led by Wang Chong, so they could only serve as scouts.
After coming out of Xikou Town, Wang Chong fell completely silent.
"What happened?"
Looking at Wang Chong's livid face, Liu Deng clearly felt something.
"Xikou Town was massacred..."
Wang Chong just said lightly.
"I see!"
Liu Deng did not ask for more details, but this was expected, and there was really nothing to say.
In times like these, especially at times like this, the invasion of alien races represents blood and fire...
"Your Majesty, you'd better not go and see..."
Looking at the direction Liu Deng was walking, Wang Chong whispered behind him.
"Don't worry, I have seen a lot over the years!"
There was no expression on Liu Deng's face. He just put his hands behind his back and slowly walked towards Xikou Town.
Seeing Liu Deng walking into Xikou Town step by step, Wang Chong frowned and followed him up again.
The generals of Yan State who looked at each other could only follow behind them step by step and slowly walked into this ordinary town.
Xikou Town, if it weren't for the official road turning here, would not have the right to appear on the map at a time like this.
But even so, there are only three thousand residents here.
The originally quiet and peaceful town was now silent.
Bloodstains can be seen everywhere on the road where Qingshiban rescued people.
The town that was originally quite ancient is now only a ruin.
The corpses of the people were scattered all over the ground, and scenes of separated heads and bodies could be seen everywhere.
The smell of blood and the smell of corpses were mixed together. The strong smell made even Wang Chong frown.
But Liu Deng seemed to be completely unaware. From the beginning to the end, the expression on his face did not change. However, Shunzi, who had been following Liu Deng, discovered that Liu Deng's fists were clenched tightly.
The sharp nails had pierced into the flesh, and blood dripped down drop by drop on Liu Deng's nails on the stone slab on the ground...
