It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 988

Coming all the way from Jiangnan, it can be called a winning streak, even if there are some stumblings, it is nothing to Li Xingzai.

Along the way, the army has been expanded, and now Li Xingzai has 600,000 to 700,000 troops under his command, which is known as one million to the outside world.

After so many battles, the Rong tribes that once ravaged the empire were almost wiped out, and the remaining small groups of Rong tribes were nothing.

At present, Chang'an City is the last entrenched place of the Rong clan. As long as Chang'an City is conquered, it can also announce the end of this troubled world.

When Li Xingzai arrived at Chang'an City, the east gate, north gate and south gate were surrounded by Jiangnan troops. Cheng Dalei was in charge of the rest of the west gate, but, as agreed in advance: Cheng Dalei held his position, and Li Xingzai came to the siege.

This is the only prestige in the world, Li Xingzai could not give it to Cheng Dalei.

At this time, Hua Mulan had returned to the Jiangnan Army from Lingchuan City. She had many things to report, and after returning, she met with Li Xingzai alone.

This time, I took him to Lingchuan City, and Hua Mulan told Cheng Dalei in every detail.

It is inevitable that Cheng Dalei is addicted to alcohol, and his spirit is lethargic.

Li Xingzai sneered three times after hearing this. He knew Cheng Dalei, he knew that this man was a thief, and he wished he could sleep with one eye open.

The reason why he behaved like this was just a show, but he was pretending to be mysterious, so he could deceive Hua Mulan, but he couldn't deceive Li Xingzai.

Not knowing why Li Xingzai laughed, Hua Mulan raised her head and listened to Li Xingzai's question:

"and after?"

"Later, when the subordinates left, they encountered the Rong clan, and it was Lu Fengxian who led the army. Fortunately, the Toad Village appeared in time, otherwise the subordinates would have died at the hands of the Rong clan. Cheng Dalei and Lu Fengxian fought for several rounds, he was really good Martial arts, not defeated by Lu Fengxian, are indeed impressive."

"Has he fought against Lu Fengxian?" Li Xingzai was surprised.

Mulan nodded.

"Even he can't help Lu Fengxian."

Li Xingzai's tone was a little surprised, but only now did Hua Mulan understand. Li Xingzai was not surprised that Lu Fengxian failed to defeat Cheng Dalei, on the contrary, he was surprised that Cheng Dalei failed to defeat Lu Fengxian.

Is Cheng Dalei's ability really that strong!

Up to now, Hua Mulan also knew that she had misjudged Cheng Dalei. But I didn't expect that the power of Dalei in the hearts of others is recognized, even if this person is Li Xingzai.

At this moment, Hua Mulan suddenly remembered something, and said, "Your Majesty, Cheng Dalei called His Majesty by his first name, and the words were too disrespectful, for fear of being disrespectful."

"Oh, that's it." Li Xingzai felt a little headache, he tapped his head and said, "So, I have to send him a letter and instruct him well."

After some conversation, Li Xingzai had already made a certain judgment on Cheng Dalei's attitude. This is not the top priority, the top priority is how to win Chang'an City.

As long as he conquers Chang'an City, he will be the undisputed king of the world. At that time, even if Cheng Dalei wanted to fight, he would not be able to fight.

And Li Xingzai instructed Cheng Dalei to keep his troops still, and Cheng Dalei was also happy that he could not work hard. Since Li Xingzai wanted to fight, let him fight. According to Cheng Dalei's estimation, Chang'an City is not that easy to fight, and Li Xingzai must not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy.

Cheng Dalei spends all day drinking and having fun with Diao Chan and other female class dancers, but he is at ease.

At this time, a letter was sent to Cheng Dalei. The letter informed Cheng Dalei of the attack time of the Jiangnan Army, and also said a few things.

Xu Cheng Dalei did not kneel, but went up to the hall with a sword. Li Xingzai wished to be commensurate with Cheng Dalei as brothers.

There is a meaning inside and outside the words: as long as Cheng Dalei does not fight for that position, other things are easy to discuss.

At least now Li Xingzai lowered his stance and did not ask too much. Who knows if he will change his face in the future.

Cheng Dalei also replied with a letter, saying that although Li Xingzai attacked the city, Cheng Dalei was in charge of the formation, and nothing could go wrong.

The subtext is also obvious: you can fight, and let me come when you can't figure it out.

Li Xingzai naturally understood the meaning of Cheng Dalei's letter, and could not help but take a deep breath: Cheng Dalei is really arrogant, how do you know that I can't handle Chang'an City.

I just laid it down for you to see.

Hurry up and arrange the battle ahead of time.

There are still many tedious things to deal with before going to war. Sacrificing the sky and the earth, worshipping the ancestors and ancestors, the soldiers sent a letter of war to the Rong people.

"I only heard of the world within the domain, the empire has always been respected, and the barbarians are not seen as the master. If you know each other, surrender quickly, it is better to waste your energy.”

I know it won't work, but I still need to do it. After the tedious ceremony, Li Xingzai couldn't wait to fight against the Rong tribe.

Until that day, even Cheng Dalei walked out of Lingchuan City. He yawned, to see how Li Xingzai slapped and how the Rong clan responded.

The three armies have assembled and guarded the city gates on all sides, but the main battlefield is at the south gate.

When Li Xingzai was about to attack, the city gate suddenly opened, and a large army of soldiers poured out from the city.

The Rong tribe did not plan to stick to the city wall, but started a face-to-face hand-to-hand battle with Li Xingzai on the flat ground.

The Rong people are good at offense and not good at defense, which is relative to their strong field ability. According to the city to defend, can reduce casualties to a minimum.

But this is for the Imperial Army, and for the Rong, they don't have this trouble.

This sudden move really disrupted Li Xingzai's arrangement. The trebuchets, crossbows, and rams that he had arranged in advance were completely ineffective.

After a round of fighting, Li Xingzai had to temporarily order the three armies to retreat, to understand the current situation first.

In the first battle of opening the door, Li Xingzai could be said to be defeated. When he stabilized his formation and organized his forces to prepare for a counterattack, the Rong clan called Jin Jin to end the battle and returned to Chang'an City.

Cheng Dalei, who was watching the battle on the mountain in the distance, took a sip of wine and sighed: "The general trend is."

Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy can win a hundred battles. Li Xingzai has been fighting for so many years, how can he not even understand the strengths and avoid weaknesses. I'm afraid he underestimated the difficulty of this battle...

The times make heroes, and heroes make the times. Li Xingzai's ability to reach today is probably due to luck. If he thinks this is all his own ability, he is afraid that this battle will be lost badly.

Li Xingzai also realized the seriousness of the problem. In this battle, the Rong tribe had absolute initiative. Fighting against the backwater, naturally, I did my best, and I was indeed a little too hasty.

The red dust has a deep hatred with Li Xingzai, and he has no interest in fighting for the world. The main purpose is to kill Li Xingzai.

It was precisely Lu Fengxian who was in the same mood, racking his brains to kill Cheng Dalei.

One of them is brave and the other is resourceful. The key is that they didn't expect to get anything at all, but only for the purpose of destruction.

Li Xingzai's army gathered in one place, just like the wild fire in the past, and fell to the bottom of the valley at the moment of approaching the peak.
