In Sandieguan, the Chinese army camp, Chen Si looked at Ye Xiao who was kneeling on one knee, frowning.
"What do you mean by not being able to detect the enemy general? Qingyu Mountain is our territory of Dadi. Aren't you Ye Xiao a spy as famous as Liang Guoheiwei? How come you can't even detect the enemy troops in your own territory! And that Bei Xi County has been unable to penetrate so far, and the so-called Night Owl is nothing more than mediocre!"
This was the first time that Chen Si was so angry.
After all, the war was getting increasingly tense, and Qingyu Mountain, where Chen Si had placed a heavy bet, actually got nothing. It was really unreasonable!
Ye Xiao knelt down on one knee, also frowning: "The Qingyu Mountain is surrounded by cliffs in three directions, and only the south direction can lead to the top of the mountain. The subordinates are just spies, not divine soldiers descended from the sky. How can the guards of the Tianji Camp be protected?" Under his nose, find out the identity of the enemy general?"
Although there is a huge difference in status between Ye Xiao and Chen Si, Ye Xiao is the confidant of the Beidi King and has a special status. Therefore, even if he refutes Chen Si face to face, he does not have to worry about "offending the superior".
Ye Xiao's eyes became more and more serious, and he didn't know whether he was anxious or angry: "As for Beixi County, does the general know how many people I, Ye Xiao, have died in order to infiltrate Beixi County?
"The county town seems to be an isolated city, but in fact it is impregnable. Not to mention the defenders, even the people inside are extremely alert. If they encounter strangers, they will immediately report it to the Yamen.
"We brothers have reached the pinnacle of disguise, but once we enter Beixi County, our whereabouts will be exposed within an hour.
"Then...that Beixi County...even...even the dogs are staring at us!"
Seeing Ye Xiao being so excited, Chen Si couldn't help but sigh and calm down his impatience. The matter of infiltrating Beixi County was indeed difficult for Ye Xiao.
You know, even Liang Guo's own black captain couldn't enter the gate of Beixi County, let alone Ye Xiao?
Chen Si's tone softened slightly: "It has been so many days. What progress has been made in Qingyu Mountain's anti-bandit operation?"
Night Owl gritted his teeth and blurted out: "More than half of the casualties."
Chen Si breathed a sigh of relief: "The guards of Tianji Camp are all at the peak of infantry combat. They are brave and invincible. They can rely on the terrain to defend and kill hundreds of people. It is not easy. As the number of guards of Tianji Camp becomes smaller and smaller, the attack becomes harder and harder." It’s getting easier and easier. If you continue like this, you won’t have to find out the identity of the enemy general anymore…”
Ye Xiao interrupted directly: "The general misunderstood. I was not talking about the casualties of more than half of the Tianji camp guards, but the casualties of more than half of the search and suppression army."
After hearing this, Chen Si was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
His eyes changed from shock to anger, and then from anger to confusion.
An 8,000-strong search and suppression army deployed by the garrison from each county, plus 3,000 elite Eagle Brigades, besieged a mere 200 people. Even if the opponent was a guard from the Tianji Battalion, 5,000 people would be killed?
Even five thousand dogs are enough to kill the Tianji camp guards!
Chen Si felt his head was dizzy. The anxious fighting on the front line, the increasingly unfavorable situation, and the bad news coming from the rear made even Chen Si feel like he would be crushed at any time.
That night Owl informed Chen Si one by one of the ins and outs of the Qingyu Mountain campaign to suppress bandits.
Chen Si covered his forehead and leaned on the desk, feeling exhausted physically and mentally: "There is no need to check, the general on Qingyu Mountain must be Qin Feng.
"Who else can do such a feat besides Qin Feng?
"Take my general's order, go directly to Qingyu Mountain, and cut off Xu Qian's head. This responsibility will be borne by me.
"Then Chen Ping was appointed as the military governor, and 3,000 Eagle Brigade cavalry and 2,000 Snow Wolf Brigade cavalry were dispatched from the front line, totaling 5,000 cavalry, to assist Qingyu Mountain.
"It's best if you can capture Qin Feng alive. If you can't capture him alive, even if it's a corpse, I will have to see it with my own eyes.
"As long as we can get rid of this powerful enemy Qin Feng, it will be a hundred benefits to me in Beidi without any harm."
As soon as Night Owl left with the warrant, the forward commander rushed into the camp with a bad look on his face.
"Chen Si! Why are you transferring people from the front line at this juncture? And they are the most elite Eagle and Snow Wolf Brigades!"
Chen Si was exhausted physically and mentally and was too lazy to explain anything. He just blurted out: "Qin Feng is in my territory of Dadi."
…
Three days later, a total of 5,000 riders from the Eagle and Snow Wolf Brigades were transferred. The anxiety of the war on the front line has not eased, but has become even more tragic.
The vanguard army that originally faced off against the generals of chariots and cavalry has all been transferred back and is heading straight towards the Beixi County defense line.
Chen Si's intention was very clear. It was already extremely difficult to break through the defense line of the cavalry generals. It was better to make a desperate move and make a fuss about Qin Feng and entangle the Beixi soldiers and horses so that they could not rush to aid Qin Feng. That would be a heavy blow. The most important thing.
The Beixi soldiers and horses were already fighting extremely hard. Facing the Beidi vanguard army that suddenly joined the battlefield, Zhao Yulong and Xu Mo had to join forces to resist together.
According to the original plan, Li Lang should also lead the Beixi infantry army to join them, but two full days passed without Li Lang being seen. It was not until the messenger appeared in front of Zhao Yulong that he learned that Li Lang Lang was already trapped in a tight siege and could not break out.
Zhao Yulong and Xu Mo stabilized the defense line, but they were already stretched thin and could not allocate extra manpower for reinforcements. They could only send people to Beixi County for reinforcements.
When Li Zhang and King Ming learned about this, they remained silent for a long time.
Beixi County's military potential has almost reached its limit. If Qin Feng can't be saved, how can there be any spare manpower to save Li Lang?
In the end, it was King Ming who made the decision. He considered the rescue issue in the long term, hoping that Li Lang could withstand the enemy's siege and fight his way out.
The "Ten Mile Pavilion", less than thirty miles away from Zhao Yulong's tribe, was already crowded with people. The pavilion, composed of countless stalagmites formed by natural weathering, was almost dyed red with blood.
Since the beginning of the war, Li Lang led the infantry army and always fought on the front line, like nails, firmly blocking the Beidi army from the ten-mile long pavilion.
But it was precisely because the battle line was pushed too far that Li Lang was unable to retreat immediately. At this time, he was surrounded by an army several times his own.
According to the number of reports reported by the generals several times, it was barely calculated that there were about 2,000 to 2,500 people around.
Li Lang was holding a seven-foot-long long-handled axe, with a bone on his waist, and the armor on his body was already covered in blood. As the commander-in-chief of the army, he had to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.
There were so many enemy troops that even Li Lang couldn't tell whether he was a friendly or an enemy.
Li Lang brought his ax down and struck the enemy on the shoulder, almost splitting the enemy into pieces. The armor on his body was useless. However, after kicking the enemy's corpse away, Li Lang staggered a few steps and almost exhausted himself. fall.
I didn't sleep for two days and two nights, fighting bloody battles all the time. I was really exhausted...
