Alekjiang couldn't help but feel a little nervous at the change before his eyes. He quickly grabbed the reins, stopped, and turned around to check the movement of the Metasequoia Cavalry.
In the past few fights, he had already learned how scary the opponent was, so he did not dare to take it lightly.
Only two thousand Zhenjiang Army armored cavalry were seen taking up their positions, and then Li Jiangyao and another general jumped out of the formation, ran to a place just within the range of the Loulan archers, stopped, and shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness King Loulan, Don’t you think it’s a pity that you returned without success?”
Alike Jiang was slightly startled, pretending to be indifferent and said with a ferocious smile: "Is it Captain Li Jiangyao of the Zhenjiang Protectorate who is speaking?"
The general next to Li Jiangyao responded: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly. This is General Li Jiangyao, the commander-in-chief of the Metasequoia Corps of the Shengtang Zhenjiang Army!"
Alike Jiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound. After carefully identifying it, he couldn't help but chuckled and said: "Oh, who do I think it is? It turns out to be cousin Huoliya. Cousin, you are the dignified Princess Nanhua of Shanshan Kingdom. When did you become an officer of Shengtang?"
Horiyah's eyes were filled with frost, and she said in a deep voice: "Alike Jiang, you shameless rat who has killed his relatives and forgotten his righteousness, you actually have the nerve to call me cousin! Sooner or later, the hatred between my father and the clan will require you to return your capital and profits! What's wrong with Officer Shengtang? It's far better for me to be Shengtang's general than for you to be the lackey of the Turks!"
Alik Jiang shrugged his shoulders, put on an indifferent expression, and said: "Then let's take our time and see. Whether the Shengtang is more powerful or the Turks are more powerful will be revealed soon. However, I'm afraid you won't survive. That day won’t come yet.”
Li Jiangyao smiled slightly and said: "Alike Jiang, you have a tough mouth. Instead of speaking so boldly, how about we go through the motions here and tell each other's superiority?"
After hearing this, Alekjiang squinted his eyes, first carefully looked at the famous Shengtang general in front of him, then looked at the soldiers and horses behind him, and said with a sly smile: "I think you are the one with the toughest words. . But there are only two thousand people here, and they want to compete with me? Be careful when Feng Da flashes his tongue!"
"Hahaha——" The Loulan generals beside Alike Jiang all laughed strangely and made a fuss when they heard this, with expressions of disdain on their faces.
As if being infected by them, the Western Xinjiang coalition cavalry further behind also drew their sabers, raised them high above their heads, waved them wildly in the air, and shouted provocations at Li Jiangyao and the others.
Facing thousands of ridicules, Li Jiangyao remained unmoved. He still sat on the horse calmly and looked at Alek Jiang with a smile. Holia beside him slowly raised her right hand and made a gesture to the cavalry behind her.
"Huha!" The metasequoia cavalry not far away saw Holia's signal and responded in unison.
Although the number of people on their side was several times smaller than that of the Western Xinjiang Allied Forces, the shout contained huge murderous fighting intent and exploded like thunder. It shocked Alik Jiang and others and stopped involuntarily. To ridicule and provoke.
Immediately afterwards, the two thousand Metasequoia Cavalry moved in unison, pulling out their white cloaks from their backpacks, fluttering them in the wind, and then tied them neatly around their bodies.
"White robe army! They are white robe army!"
Uneasy shouts suddenly rang out in the Western Xinjiang coalition camp. The large dazzling white that suddenly appeared in front of them crushed the confidence of the coalition cavalry in the blink of an eye!
Many Western Xinjiang soldiers even began to involuntarily pick up their reins and retreat their horses, as if they were ready to retreat and escape at any time, making the originally complete and solemn formation slightly chaotic.
"Don't panic! Don't mess up!" Alek Jiang reined in his horse and yelled around him: "You see clearly, there are not many of them... Even if they can't be defeated, there is no problem in running away."
Hearing such discouraging words from their own general, the soldiers in Western Xinjiang suddenly felt even more panicked.
"Is it okay to run?" Li Jiangyao laughed: "Your Highness is probably too naive. How could Li let you run away so easily?"
Li Jiangyao's confident words made Alek Jiang's already somewhat uncertain mood immediately become more intense. This guy had even thought about it before, considering whether to take advantage of his military strength and gamble on "repelling the white robe army and capturing Li Jiangyao alive." But now, there is only one thought left in Alike Jiang's mind: Li Jiangyao is full of tricks and the white-robed army is extremely ferocious. They obviously have a small number of people, but now they turn around and come back to actively provoke them. It is obvious that there is nothing good going on. Rather than gambling on luck, it is better to leave this unlucky place as soon as possible and ensure safety first.
Alek Jiang made up his mind, sneered and rolled his eyes at Li Jiangyao, and was about to order the whole army to retreat before the white-robed army rushed towards him, when the soldiers from the Western Xinjiang area in the rear suddenly made an inexplicable noise. stand up.
Alek Jiang and the generals quickly turned around to look around, and were shocked to find that smoke and dust had risen all over the sky at some point on the horizon behind them.
Immediately afterwards, the mountains and seas of spears and sharp blades loomed in the sunset, reflecting the dazzling light of stars.
The dull and neat sound of footsteps was getting closer and clearer at this time.
A huge and formidable military formation is moving this way. On the flag flying at the front of the military formation, there are five characters written on it - Shengtang Zhenjiang Army!
Almost at the same time that the giant infantry phalanx of the Zhenjiang Army appeared behind them, flying dust was also rolled up in the distance to the left and right of Alik Jiang. Two groups of Zhenjiang armored cavalry with 5,000 men each appeared in the shape of a crescent moon. Formation, surround the people from Xijiang.
Alekjiang couldn't help being shocked when he saw this.
He looked around and silently calculated in his mind: What was standing in front of him was the nightmare-like ghost-faced white-robed army. Not to mention that he didn't have the guts to break through. Even if he had this rare courage, his subordinates might not be willing to carry out this move. Such a stupid command.
What about rushing backward? It's that huge infantry phalanx. The layers of sculls, shields, spears, and bows and arrows are all enemies of the cavalry. To attack them forcefully is to seek death.
And located on his left and right sides are highly mobile iron cavalry. It is not difficult to imagine that as long as one moves on his side, the other party can intercept them in the blink of an eye, and then the Zhenjiang Army from other directions will swarm up and completely strangle Alik Jiang and the others.
Under such circumstances, not only did Alek Jiang feel in a dilemma, but his soldiers also gradually panicked, and an atmosphere of panic soon permeated the ranks.
For a while, Alek Jiang did not dare to act rashly anymore, for fear that a slight move might cause misunderstanding by the other party, which would lead to a ruthless attack. He had no choice but to wait and see what would happen. The Zhenjiang Army also waited quietly. There was no sign of a large-scale attack yet.
A cavalry team ran out from the armored cavalry camp on the right and galloped in front of Li Jiang.
Xu Youchang reined in his horse and said loudly: "Sir, I humbly lead the First Army and the Second Army to arrive as ordered!" After that, he gave Li Jiangyao a standard military salute.
Li Jiangyao smiled calmly and replied: "General Xu, thank you for your hard work, and the soldiers have worked hard."
"I am willing to serve you!" This is the standard command of the Shengtang Army. The superior praises the subordinates for their "hard work", and the subordinates respond with "service". Xu Youchang responded according to the rules, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Finally we caught up in time. I was always worried that I would miss something big."
Horiyah smiled beside her and said: "Brother Xu, you are moving so fast! To be honest, I have been secretly worried in my heart just now. If you don't come again, you and I will have to bite the bullet and have a bloody battle with Alek Jiang. "
Xu Youchang smiled sheepishly: "As soon as I received your order, I immediately withdrew my troops and returned. However, Du Jian and I didn't know where you would lead the enemy to in the end, so we could only send out troops while rushing here. Scout search. The later it gets, the harder it will be to find you. If we accidentally miss you, our First Army and Second Army will be guilty."
"It's really difficult for you," Li Jiangyao said calmly: "The incident happened suddenly, and I made a temporary decision. Encircling the enemy during the movement like this is a very difficult task. You and Du Jian Well done.”
Xu Youchang was relieved and nodded slightly: "Sir, what is the situation of the Turkic army? Have you found their traces?"
Li Jiangyao frowned: "There is no news about the Turks yet. We are far away from Metasequoia City, and we are fighting and running. Even if Lin Feng has a harvest, I am afraid that he will not be able to report it in time. Alas, so far, the so-called Turks The Turkic army is just my guess."
Xu Youchang pondered: "In my opinion, it should be close to ten. All the enemy's actions show that they must have other methods. After all, besides the Turkic north and south camps, what other new forces can there be? What? The countries in Western Xinjiang have long been targeted by our Intelligence Department."
Horiyah smiled, pointed at the people from Xijiang in the distance and said, "What are we doing here guessing? Will I ask Alek Jiang later that everything will be clear?"
"Haha, what the princess said makes sense," Xu Youchang reacted: "How shall we act next? Sir, please give me the order."
Li Jiangyao glanced at the distance: "Right now, we have an absolute advantage, and Alek Jiang is more anxious than us. However, there may be successive battles later, so if we eat them all now, the enemy will still fight when they are trapped, and our The casualties will also be heavy..."
Xu Youchang understood what Li Jiangyao was thinking, but he still asked: "What do you mean, sir, to force them to surrender?"
Li Jiangyao nodded slightly: "I think so, but..." As he said that, he looked at Horiyah next to him with a slight embarrassment.
Holia and Li Jiangyao looked at each other for a moment, and they suddenly understood that it was because of her that Li Jiangyao hesitated. Horiyah pouted her lips: "Sir, although I am usually a bit willful, I am also a soldier in Xinjiang. I will never let personal hatred take precedence over official duties. As for Alek Jiang, let him live for a few more days. One day , I will avenge my father!"
Li Jiangyao and Xu Youchang did not expect that Huo Liya was so sensible and easily agreed to let go of the opportunity to kill their enemy. They couldn't help but feel happy and admire the Nanhua Princess.
Li Jiangyao smiled and said: "Okay, since the princess nods, it's easy to handle! First scare the bastard Alike Jiang, and then talk about his evil ways!"
