The 50,000 Western soldiers came quickly and retreated even faster.
Xianda was afraid of the current Qin army's combat power, and he had no siege equipment, so he did not dare to attack the city rashly, but wanted to withdraw from Belvedere.
Looking at the 50,000-strong army retreating like a tide on the plain outside the city, Xiao Yuan looked at Mu Lianying next to him and said: "Miss Mu, your people should not always stay near Xuecheng to give Su Yi We will send some manpower to Xipingguan and Xipingguan, so that our Qin army can quickly transmit information among various departments so as to understand the enemy's situation as soon as possible."
Now with the help of the Snow Clan's military intelligence, there is no doubt that Xiao Yuan feels even more powerful.
After hearing this, Mu Lianying said in a calm voice: "I have already given these instructions."
"Oh?" Unexpectedly, she had already done it. After Xiao Yuan was slightly surprised, he couldn't help but sigh slightly: "If the Snow Clan keeps helping, why worry about Xirong not being destroyed."
"The Snow Clan does not want to participate in any fights. This battle is just for self-protection. I only hope that after Xirong's defeat, the Snow Clan can return to its previous peaceful state. Just don't burn bridges across the river," Mu Lianying said.
Xiao Yuan smiled when he heard this and said: "You, the Xue tribe, are also Chinese. We are all from the same ethnic group. You have made contributions to Qin this time. How can I point my troops at you? Miss Mu doesn't have to worry about this at all."
"That's good." Mu Lianying simply replied, but fell silent again.
This cold beauty always has an air of repulsion about her. When she speaks, she is either on business or silent.
Xiao Yuan wanted the military intelligence of the Snow Clan, so he had to get Mu Lianying's support, so he began to trick Jin Jin into saying:
"You live in Snow City all year round, isn't it cold?"
Mu Lianying said nothing.
"What do you usually eat?"
She still didn't speak.
Xiao Yuan suddenly felt embarrassed.
"Miss Mu, you are so beautiful. Wouldn't it be even more beautiful if you could smile more?"
Hearing this, Mu Lianying finally spoke: "Do you, Lord Prefect, always speak so frivolously?"
This, is this called frivolity?
This is a compliment to her!
If you put this now, it can barely be regarded as sweet talk.
"It's so boring." Xiao Yuan was speechless for a while, then turned and left.
On the other side, Belvedere.
Due to the strength of military intelligence, it didn't take long for Su Yi to receive the news.
At this time, he was discussing the war with his thousands of captains.
"According to the military information from the Snow Clan, Xianda led a force of 50,000 people and was heading towards Belvedere."
"And here." As he spoke, he habitually put his right fist under his mouth, coughed twice, then pointed to the sand table and said: "There is a valley called Youlin Road, which is the most beautiful part of Xianda. The city must pass through, and the terrain here is dangerous, so we can set up an ambush and hit Xianda hard first!"
After saying this, Su Yi began to give orders without waiting for the generals to say anything:
"General Wang, I order you to lead two thousand soldiers and lie down on the right side of the valley."
"General Li, I order you to lead two thousand soldiers to lie down on the left side. When you see the Xirong army, don't worry. Let their front army pass by and cut off his center army so that the head and tail cannot see each other!"
"Do you all understand?"
"Understood!" All the generals responded in unison.
Su Yi, on his side, had no intention of letting Xianda's troops approach the city. Instead, he decided to set up an ambush halfway and annihilate a group of enemy troops first.
Speaking of Xianda, after leaving Beiling City, he directly led his army to Belvedere without stopping.
The reason for this is because he doesn't know what is happening in Belvedere now, and he just wants to return to Xirong from Belvedere.
Beiling and Belvedere are two counties, and the distance between them is at least dozens of miles.
Therefore, by the time he arrived at Youlin Road, it was almost evening.
This is an important road between two mountains and a valley, with a road in the middle, mountains and dense forests on both sides.
After Xianda led his army to arrive here, he did not make any pause, and the Xirong soldiers were still walking forward unhurriedly.
The queue of the 50,000-strong army was very long. It took a while before the front army passed through the valley.
But at this moment, countless soldiers of the Qin army suddenly stood up in the dense forest on both sides. Amidst the sounds of armors clashing, all the Qin soldiers also raised their bows and arrows, and aimed condescendingly at the Xirong army below.
Such movement naturally alarmed Xianda. He was in the middle position and couldn't help but tighten the reins. Amidst the neighing of the war horse, he also raised his head and looked upward. On both sides of the top, there were countless soldiers of the Qin army, wearing black armor and red tassels.
Seeing this scene, Xianda's eyes widened in horror, and his lieutenant immediately started shouting: "There is an ambush! Hurry! Protect the general."
As soon as he finished speaking, the generals of the Qin army on the mountain had already loudly ordered: "Fire the arrows!"
As the command flag wavered, for a moment, arrows rained down like rain.
Howls suddenly broke out.
Many Xirong soldiers were already listless and did not react at all, and were knocked to the ground by random arrows.
Some people with quick reactions began to wave their scimitars and kept blocking arrows. However, they blocked the vital points of their heads, but could not block their chests and lower bodies. I don’t know how many people waved their swords twice, and then immediately Nailed into a hedgehog.
The rain of arrows from above never stopped, one round after another.
For the soldiers of the Qin army, this was effortless. They only had to stand on the spot and fire arrows. There were many soldiers, in groups of several, pushing huge rocks down the mountain.
The big boulder rolled down and smashed into the Xirong crowd. It didn't crush one or two people to death. Needless to say, the effect was great.
When the man was on his back, the horse under Xianda's crotch was also frightened. He tried hard to pull the reins and turned the horse's head. At the same time, he also shouted in panic: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
Needless to say, in this situation, the other party is condescending. Wherever they can rush forward, if they stay here any longer, many people will die!
Following his order, the Xirong army immediately changed from the rear to the front and began to flee frantically for their lives. The scene became a mess.
As the general, Xianda was naturally protected by countless soldiers. Under the rain of arrows, the people he was protecting around him howled miserably from time to time and were shot to the ground.
Xianda wanted to withdraw, but his front army had already passed through the valley. At this time, seeing the chaos in the rear, all the Xirong soldiers were at a loss. They could neither continue to move forward nor come back.
In the panic, a Xirong general in the front army also began to order: "Retreat! Retreat quickly! Join General Xianda!"
Following his order, Xirong's front army also began to turn around and prepare to withdraw from the valley.
But the rain of arrows and rolling stones on the mountains on both sides never stopped.
If Xianda's former troops want to come back, they will undoubtedly have to pay a heavy price!
