20demayo Chapter 416
Chapter 416
Wu'an City, the battle has begun.
The general of Qi received the order from the court and issued the battle order without hesitation in the name of quelling the rebellion.
The 100,000-man army did not take the refugees seriously at all, and quickly launched an offensive, even without fully preparing some siege equipment, and hurriedly began the attack.
Originally full of confidence, he was soon taught a lesson by Wu Qi.
Wu Qi did not take a defensive position at all. At the moment the enemy launched an attack, Wu Qi led the army directly out of the city.
On the one hand, it was to face the battle head-on, and on the other hand, it was to prepare to go out of the city to support. According to Wu Qi's speculation, as long as the Qi army launched an attack, the subsequent attack would not stop.
With the combat effectiveness of the Zhenbei Army and the continuous support provided by the 100,000 mountains, there was no need to defend Wu'an City.
Moreover, Wu Qi had another idea, that is, in the name of the refugee riot, he took the opportunity to capture cities and take over more cities of Qi, so that the shortage of resources in the 100,000 mountains could be alleviated.
"Is this the army formed by those refugees?"
Looking at the refugee army that was marching out of the city in an orderly manner, the general of Qi State was a little confused.
Who are these refugees? Why are the other side's equipment better than theirs?
"Order the army to attack."
Now is not the time to be confused. No matter where these people got their equipment from, they will not change after all.
With this idea in mind, the army of Qi State began to charge.
Hand-to-hand combat, blood and flesh flying, in a flash, the brutal battle began.
"No, these are not refugees at all, they are clearly elite troops, quickly shrink the troops, prepare for defense, and wait for rescue."
"Send someone to report the situation here to the court immediately."
Less than ten minutes after the war started, the general of Qi State discovered something unusual.
All of them are third-grade warriors, how can there be such a refugee army, which is more elite than themselves. If they continue to fight, they will definitely be wiped out.
At this moment, the general panicked, no longer as arrogant as when he first came, and immediately withdrew his troops and waited for rescue.
"Come here, inform General Yue Fei, please send another 300,000 troops to block the troops from various cities, and take advantage of the situation to counterattack and occupy those cities."
The battle was almost one-sided, and there would be no surprises here. Wu Qi began to exert his strength.
At this moment, Qi still had about 300,000 reinforcements on the way. Wu Qi's next step was to target these reinforcements and the cities behind them.
These cities were all near Wu'an City. As long as they were taken, they could form a supportive trend. It would not be so easy for Qi to attack Wu'an City and Shiwan Mountain again.
Wu Qi chased and attacked fiercely, forcing the invading 100,000 Qi troops to retreat and defend. Yue Fei also quickly responded and sent another 300,000 troops to directly attack the reinforcements.
A melee broke out.
In the palace of Qi's capital, everyone was silent.
"Your Majesty, there are already 500,000 elite troops. Where did these people come from? Could it be that the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains are connected to other places?"
No one believes that these troops are really made up of refugees. Even if they are, it is impossible for their strength to increase so much in a short period of time.
All anyone can think of is that these troops came from somewhere else.
It is impossible to mobilize so many troops in the territory of Qi without leaving a trace. The only thing that could go wrong is the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"It seems that Long Tian's purpose of gathering refugees is to cover up the origins of these troops. No matter where they come from, they should be heading for our Qi."
"Send an order, order the nearby garrisons to set off immediately and rush to Wu'an City. The secret of the Ten Thousand Mountains must be revealed."
"At the same time, report the situation here to the Liyang Dynasty. Our country is on the front line against the Tianwu Dynasty. Now someone is cutting off the firewood. The Liyang Dynasty cannot ignore it."
The Emperor of Qi was very angry.
I am leading Qi on the front line, but someone is plotting against me. It is outrageous. No matter who the other party is, Qi will not give up.
"Your Majesty, the enemy's offensive is very fierce, and our army is almost no match for it. It can be seen that the enemy is elite and has the help of experts."
"Your Majesty, the situation here should not only be reported to the Liyang Dynasty, but also to the King of Backers Xue Wuya. After all, he is closest to the battlefield. If there is a problem here, he is also to blame, and even leads to a great defeat of the Liyang Dynasty. Xue Wuya will not accept such a result."
"If you ask Xue Wuya for help, the effect may be better."
Someone suggested.
There is nothing wrong with what this person said. Xue Wuya never wants to see problems on the front line.
"Father, this matter is of great importance. It concerns the life and death of our Qi State and even affects the situation of the entire Liyang Dynasty. Please send the most capable person to see Xue Wuya. I am not talented, but I am willing to take on this important task."
Qi Tianstood up.
"Your Majesty, what the Second Prince said is just right. We must consider the worst situation. Whether we can get Xue Wuya's support is very critical. We should indeed send a heavyweight to highlight the importance of this matter."
"However, although the Second Prince is a prince, he does not usually come into contact with political affairs. I suggest that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally take action, which can not only highlight the importance of this matter, but also fully express our country's attention to this matter."
Prime Minister Du Cheng stood up and suggested.
If this matter is done well, it is very important for the reputation of the Crown Prince, and it can also show his face in front of Xue Wuya. If he leaves a good impression, the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne is almost certain.
With such a good opportunity, how could the Second Prince be allowed to go?
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is right. This matter must be personally handled by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
General Li Hongbo and Lieutenant Li Gang also echoed.
Looking at the three people who strongly recommended the prince, Qi Tian was so angry that his teeth itched. These bastards didn't give him any chance. Fortunately, he and Long Tian reached an agreement.
"In this case, the prince will set off immediately to meet the King of Backer. I am waiting for your good news."
The Emperor Qi favored the prince and was willing to give him a chance.
"Yes, I will set off immediately and will never let my father down."
The prince immediately accepted the order and turned to leave. He also glanced at Qi Tian inadvertently, as if mocking him.
Even if you proposed it, good things will not fall on your head.
Qi Tian looked at the prince with a blank expression.
"Go, see how long you can be arrogant."
The goal was achieved. Qi Tian said nothing, but just guessed the meticulousness of the plan in his heart.
"Your Majesty, we cannot rely solely on the Liyang Dynasty. We must continue to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion."
"I am willing to lead the troops to fight and resolve the rebellion as soon as possible."
General Li Hongbo could no longer sit still at this time. The existing intelligence revealed too many unusual things and could not be ignored.
"Your Majesty, please give your order."
A group of ministers also supported it. After all, it was not them who would go. If someone was willing to go, then go.
