Regardless of the mood of the generals, by the time the arrangements were completed, it was less than half an hour before the enemy troops arrived. However, in the past time, Lan Xu received another message that when the coalition troops were halfway through the journey, half a million soldiers had arrived. The army took a short rest, and when it set off again, it was divided into two parts, front and rear, led by one hundred thousand pioneers.
The special behavior of the coalition forces shows that they have no intention of fighting a decisive battle with the Star Army, but it also means that it will not be a simple test. As for how far the two sides can fight today, it still needs time to prove.
In a tense and solemn atmosphere, half an hour passed quickly. The vanguard team of the coalition forces, which had been separated from the main force, a total of 100,000 men and horses, arrived outside Fancheng Pass under the flag of Yangguo. As soon as the 100,000 men and horses arrived, an enemy The general will march directly from the army, ride a fierce horse and rush to the city. He will go straight forward without worrying that the star army on the city will attack him.
When the man stopped, all the Star Army generals in the city looked at the man.
"I, General Qi Wei, am at the early stage of the seventh level. I wonder if there are any enemy generals in the city who dare to go out to fight?" Meeting the gazes of many star generals on the city, the enemy general named Qi Wei gave a brief introduction and then directly explained his purpose.
The next moment, after understanding that the enemy general was coming to call for formation, the Star Army generals on the city frowned. They were willing to go down and join the formation, but when they thought that the enemy general came alone, they might have some conspiracy, so they did not dare to act rashly. Besides, Lan Xu still has to decide whether to fight or not.
"Is there Marshal Lan in the city? I am Qi Wei, the commander of the Yangguo Infantry Battalion. Please ask Marshal Lan to point out the generals to fight against each other." Just when Lan Xu was about to let Qi Wei go back, Qi Wei spoke first and directly pointed out Lan Xu's identity.
That arrogant tone made all the generals in the city change their expressions. Even though many generals just didn't think about going to fight, now they all couldn't help but want to teach Qi Wei a lesson.
"General Qi, please go back. I will not send anyone to fight you." Different from the reactions of those generals, as the commander of the three armies, Lan Xu was not easily angered by Qi Wei. In order to make the other party give up, he went on to say : "General Qi, the victory between two armies is not decided by the generals of both sides. Why do you need to engage in a meaningless fight before the battle?"
"Does the marshal not know that our martial arts cultivators from the Yang Kingdom like competition and don't want the beauty of adults?" He had already thought of the reason. Faced with Lan Xu's questioning, Qi Wei directly cited the customs of their Yang Kingdom.
"You martial cultivators from Yang Guo do like to fight, but war is not a simple personal competition. It's not because I don't want the beauty of adulthood. It's just that this kind of competition is meaningless in my opinion." Regarding the martial arts cultivators from Yang Guo who like to fight, Lan Xu has some understanding, but it is not important. He will not change his original decision because of this.
"How are the preparations in the city?" After responding forcefully to Qi Wei, Lan Xu turned around and looked at Li Jianran next to him.
"Reporting to the marshal, the arrangements have been made," Li Jianran responded calmly when he met Lan Xu's gaze.
"Yes," nodded, Lan Xu glanced at both sides of the city tower several times. On the walls several hundred meters long on both sides, there were two archers guarding each crenellation. As long as the enemy attacked the city in large numbers, those archers would Cause the first round of blocking to the enemy.
From top to bottom, the deployment of the Star Army has been very complete, and there is nothing to fault. What really worries Lan Xu is the determination of the coalition forces to attack the city.
Today, the coalition forces not only mobilized in full force, but also used such a special method to start the war. For a while, he couldn't figure out the coalition's plan.
"Qi is indeed an ordinary general in the eyes of the marshal, but the marshal looks down upon me so much. Is it possible that the marshal is so small-minded that he will not let go of Yang's custom of advocating competition just because of the hostile relationship between you and me?" In the eyes," while Lan Xu was thinking about how today's war would end, Qi Wei's untimely voice came again.
Obviously, Qi Wei was still unwilling to give up after being silent for a long time. He once again brought up the customs of Yang Kingdom. He just wanted to connect him with the 100,000 Yang Kingdom soldiers behind him and forcefully put pressure on Lan Xu. If Lan Xu didn't stop, Agree, his refusal will anger Yang Guo's 100,000 soldiers. Once this happens, the morale of the enemy army will definitely increase.
After carefully considering Qi Wei's intentions, Lan Xu realized that Qi Wei was difficult to deal with and had to face some current problems.
"Marshal, it's still some time before the main force of the enemy army arrives. Why don't you let the last general go down to meet the enemy general so that the enemy general can retreat?" Before Lan Xu could make any further remarks, a cavalry camp general couldn't help but immediately Ask Lan Xu for help.
"Marshal, the enemy general below is so arrogant. If we don't impose a small punishment, I'm afraid it will upset the morale of our troops." In order to express his support for his subordinates and express his dissatisfaction with the enemy general below, Zhang, who has always had a hot temper, boldly addressed Lan directly. Xu Jin said.
"I understand what the two generals mean. If you send someone, you must send the right person." The eager looks from his subordinates made Lan Xu feel embarrassed. Judging from the reactions of the generals, the only way to stabilize the morale of the army is to send people to fight. , but although the enemy general below looks like an arrogant person on the surface, judging from his words and deeds just now, it is obvious that he is quite dignified. When I think about it, the enemy who dares to take the initiative to call for battle must not be trying to humiliate himself, so... After thinking about it again and again, Lan Xu still felt that he should send a general with outstanding strength to fight.
"What does the marshal mean?" Lan Xu's response made Zhang DaDabao a little confused, and Zhang DaDao could not fully understand it for a while.
"Once people are sent, a contest between the enemy and ourselves will inevitably affect the morale of both parties. After all, the enemy general himself is extraordinary in strength, so we should not take it lightly." After a brief explanation, Lan Xu continued: "But the enemy general's strength is only At the early stage of the seventh level, we can’t send too powerful people there.”
"I'll understand what the marshal means," Zhang Dadan nodded, already understanding Lan Xu's intention of not wanting to lose to the enemy general but also not wanting to win without force.
"Marshal, the general is willing to ask for orders to go forward." After understanding Lan Xu's meaning, another cavalry general asked for orders to go to fight.
"General Dong Qing is extremely brave and has not yet reached the mid-seventh level. He is indeed a suitable candidate. I will leave the matter of confronting the enemy general to General Dong. I hope General Dong will not disappoint me." Lan turned around slowly, Xu looked at the person who was speaking and already had some concerns in his mind.
The Dong Qing in front of him has been awarded the title of Wolf General, and his strength is impeccable. According to Lan Xu's guess, even if Dong Qing loses to Qi Wei, he will not lose to Qi Wei, so there is no problem in sending Dong Qing to fight Qi Wei.
"The last general takes orders," Dong Qing looked happy when Lan Xu agreed. As a general of the cavalry camp, he had long been dissatisfied with Qi Wei's arrogant behavior. Now Lan Xu ordered him to fight against Qi Wei, which was just right for him. In his heart, he was completely unafraid, and he never thought about the possibility of losing to Qi Wei.
"Hasn't the marshal thought it through yet?" Qi Wei below noticed some movement in the city and waited patiently for a while. When he found Lan Xu's eyes moving to him again, Qi Wei immediately asked.
"Since General Qi is so elegant, I just ordered him to accompany me." Lan Xu has decided to compete head-on with the other party. Lan Xu does not intend to be polite to Qi Wei anymore. Compared with before, his tone now shows a superiority. The breath of the person.
Standing behind Lan Xu, for a moment, Lu Yunyou had a strong feeling. Lan Xu seemed to have become another person. The aura on his whole body was extremely powerful, which gave him a very different feeling from usual. After a while of surprise, , he slowly realized that it was the pressure that belonged to Lan Xu. Lan Xu was the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, and his aura was naturally far incomparable, but he didn't usually show it too much.
Before Lu Yunyou could think about it, there was a sound of the city gate opening from below the city. Then, Dong Qing, who had just left, appeared again on his horse, his silver-gray armor glowing coldly in the sun. Dazzling, even though it is just a back body, it already feels very powerful.
In front of the majestic Dong Qing, the burly Qi Wei was riding on a horse. He was dressed in a general's style and was very majestic. He met the surging Dong Qing. There was a smile on his lips, as if his evil plan had succeeded.
"I am General Dong Qing, Star Army Wolf General," General Dong reported his title to Qi Wei unceremoniously after stopping his horse.
"It turns out that your Excellency is a wolf general, disrespectful, disrespectful." After returning the salute to Dong Yang with a half-smile, Qi Wei directly raised his weapon and pointed it at Dong Qing: "You and I each serve their own masters. There is no need to fight today. You’re welcome, it’s best for everyone to enjoy themselves.”
The words were extremely domineering, and the lukewarm tone highlighted Qi Wei's gloomy temperament. Just looking at Qi Wei, Dong Qing felt a little uncomfortable. Of course, Dong Qing was not afraid of Qi Wei's personal strength, but just Not used to Qi Wei's personal temperament.
"General Qi is right, it's best for you and me to have a good fight." After fully understanding what Qi Wei meant, Dong Qing smiled cruelly, slapped the horse on the back, and headed straight for Qi Wei.
After approaching, Dong Qing waved the spear in his hand, and used a move to sweep away thousands of troops. With the strength of a seventh-level martial artist, the momentum of this move was extraordinary.
At the same time, Qi Wei slapped the horse, and the horse rushed straight out. Its speed instantly caught up with Dong Qing's speed. It was obvious that his mount was unusual.
