Xiu Jie didn't see anyone coming down to challenge the city. Knowing that Fang Yu was going to defend the city, he came to Lan Yao and asked, "Where is Li Qun'ao? There is no movement at all."
"The king has arrived at the city. It is estimated that Commander Li is not far from the city." Lan Yao replied.
Thinking about it, although Li Qun'ao set off first, he was not as good as him after all. Xiu Jie said: "In this case, the army is already tired, so we will set up camp around the city and attack the city tomorrow."
"Yes." Lan Yao passed down Xiujie's order to surround the city and set up camp.
"Madam, Duan Yi and Wu Lu's reinforcements are coming. Why don't you attack the city overnight?" He Xiqing asked Lan Yao.
"The army is tired. It will be beneficial to our army to fight with Li Qun'ao after resting. As for Duan Yi and other reinforcements, Official Futing has arranged them. I believe Leng Yue can withstand them for a while." Lan Yao said one by one.
In the east of Weijia City, Duan Yi led his army along the road towards Weijia City.
When we reached Shuishaji, the sky turned dark. Lin Datian, the flag commander beside Duan Yi, said: "Commander, we will arrive at Weijia City tomorrow. Do you want to camp and rest now?"
"What kind of camp should we set up? Just hurry up." Duan Yi quickened his pace and walked forward.
"Report, Commander, Roy Kingdom's army has been spotted ahead." A scout ran back from the front to report.
Duan Yi looked slightly surprised and asked, "How many people are there?"
"About a flag."
"One flag? Haha." Duan Yi said with a smile: "I have the strength of two armies. Crush them over."
Near dusk, tens of thousands of troops formed an attack formation near Shuishaji, advancing neatly forward. Their footsteps on Shuishaji caused ripples on the lake surface.
Leng Yue arranged his army into a defensive formation, with swordsmen in front and archers at the back. He led his spearmen in a floating and dragging strategy and hid in the reeds near Shuishaji.
Before setting up the ambush, Leng Yue had already told the commander of the archer battalion to attack from a distance when Duan Yi's army came into range. At that time, Leng Yue would lead the spearmen to fight out of the reeds.
Seeing Duan Yi leading his army past the reeds, Leng Yue clenched her steel gun and waited anxiously for the archers to attack. This was the first battle after joining the Roy Kingdom and she must not lose.
"Whoosh whoosh!" A sound broke through the air, and arrows rained down on Duan Yijun. Some soldiers who had no time to react were immediately shot to the ground by the falling arrows.
Duan Yi raised his fighting power and waved his silver spear. His strength followed the silver spear and shot down the surrounding arrows.
"Archer flag, suppress their attack for me."
Duan Yi gave the order, and an archer and flag commander immediately rushed up from behind with his archers and attacked Leng Yue's army.
The swordsmen in the front row of Leng Yue's army quickly returned to defense, desperately blocking the arrows falling from the sky.
In the reeds, Leng Yue saw that Duan Yi's archers had rushed up and shouted: "Kill..." The steel gun opened the reeds and was the first to come out.
Duan Yi's archers were attacking Leng Yue's army in front. Suddenly, Leng Yue attacked from the side. They couldn't resist it and began to collapse in all directions.
The army was scattered in the middle. Duan Yi did not dare to fight for a long time and ordered his troops to withdraw.
Leng Yue repelled Duan Yi and stopped pursuing him. According to Futuo's strategy, he stationed himself near Shuishaji.
It was getting late, so Duan Yi retreated 11 or 12 kilometers and set up camp to rest and prepare for another battle tomorrow.
In Weijia City, Fang Yu adjusted her breath and took the elixir. She felt that her energy and blood were much better and she slowly stood up.
"I didn't expect Xiujie to be so powerful. He couldn't fight at all." Fang Yu gently twisted his shoulder again and found that it was very sore.
"It seems we can only continue to hold on to the city tomorrow."
In Xiu Jie's tent, He Xiqing said to Xiu Jie after reading the battle report sent by Leng Yue: "King, Leng Yue defeated Duan Yi in Shuishaji. Duan Yi will definitely organize an army to attack tomorrow. Leng Yue only has one The flag’s troops will definitely not be able to withstand it, so we can send an army to support them.”
Xiu Jie turned to look at He Xiqing and said unhappily: "One army? Who is going? Are you going? Didn't Futuo say that we only need one flag from Leng Yue?"
He Xiqing said: "One flag is enough to stop the ambush. We will fight head-on tomorrow. If there is no support, I'm afraid Leng Yue's flag will be destroyed."
"Forget it, let Leng Yue persist, and I can break through Vega City tomorrow."
Seeing that Xiu Jie had made up his mind, He Xiqing did not insist and exited the tent at Xiu Jie's signal.
The next day, just after dawn, Li Qun'ao sent someone to deliver the battle report. After Xiu Jie read it, he was furious and immediately called Fu Tuo.
After Futuo received the news, he hurriedly ran from the Chinese Army to Xiujie's tent, and happened to meet Lan Yao coming out of the couch inside the tent.
"Madam." Futuo said.
Lan Yao looked at Futuo and said softly: "The king is angry, so be careful what you say."
"What are you talking about? You guys." Xiu Jie's voice came from the nearby cases.
Fu Tuo hurriedly walked over and said, "King, are you in a hurry with me?"
"Nonsense, look at the battle report sent by Li Qun'ao." Xiu Jie pointed at the letter on the desk angrily: "We haven't reached the north gate yet, and we said that we were blocked by an army of five miles away and were fighting fiercely with them. What a mess."
Futuo said: "It must be Gao Xun's strategy to divide the troops to block our northern army, but it does help us."
Xiu Jie looked at Futuo in confusion and asked, "What are you talking about? You are so stupid that you are still helping us even though you were blocked by others."
"King." Futuo said slowly: "Now Wu Lu's troops are divided and Fang Yu is huddled in Weijia City. As long as the king leads his army around the city, he can directly eliminate Wu Lu's troops who are supporting Weijia City, and then Take advantage of the situation and advance westward, and attack from the east and west with Commander Li, and destroy the five troops blocking Commander Li."
After listening to Futuo's words, Xiujie hesitated and said, "This will extend the siege time. I'm afraid Leng Yue's side will not be able to withstand Duan Yi's attack."
"Don't worry, king, I have sent a banner of troops to support, and I will definitely keep Duan Yi out."
"But I want to break through Vega City as soon as possible." Xiu Jie was a little hesitant.
Futuo said: "If we attack Weijia City, Fang Yu will defend it to the death. When Wu Lu's army arrives, it will delay our time to break the city. When we eliminate Wu Lu and then defeat Duan Yi, Weijia City will be destroyed without attack. , it will not be slower than attacking the city directly."
Xiu Jie sat and thought for a while, then suddenly stood up and said, "In this case, I will lead the army to destroy Wu Lu."
The army set off, bypassed Vega City, and headed straight for the fifth army.
Fang Yu watched Xiu Jie retreat in the city and was overjoyed: "Hahaha, this Xiu Jie saw my two reinforcements arriving and withdrew completely. It seems to be nothing more than that."
On the eastern front, Duan Yi assembled his troops and arrived in front of Lengyue Formation.
Seeing that Leng Yue's troops were less than one flag, and remembering that he was defeated by these troops yesterday, Duan Yi's anger rose in his heart and shouted: "Leng Yue, do you dare to fight with me?"
