Chapter 57 Bloody Battle

The staff's words were reasonable. After hearing this, Li Keyong nodded slowly and his face finally looked a little better. As long as Li Cunxiao defeated Liu Dazheng and arrived in Qinzhou City smoothly, the situation would indeed be as the staff said.

Li Keyong looked around everyone, his eyes focused on his eyes passing by several Taibaos, and said coldly: "If you can be more motivated on weekdays, like the Thirteen Taibaos, you can also achieve the realm of military generals, today's situation in Qinzhou City will not be so difficult?"

Many of the generals who had just breathed a sigh of relief showed shame. No one was even more worried about Li Keyong's criticism, and some of them looked even red. They asked for orders to go out of the city to fight to the death with the Pinglu Army.

Seeing that the success inspired the morale of the generals, Li Keyong was quite satisfied and waved his hand and said, "If you have the will of death, you will go down and be prepared. When the Thirteenth Taibao leads the army to come, we will cooperate inside and outside to let that guy Li Ye knows that he is powerful!"

Most of the people looked excited, and after saying that they would advance and retreat with Li Keyong and survive and die with Qinzhou City, they would go down and return to their posts.

The Political Affairs Hall was soon empty. Li Keyong sat down in his original position, looked at the empty room, frowned and fell into deep thought.

Li Cunxiao was the most brave general of the Hedong Army, second only to himself. If even Li Cunxiao could not defeat Liu Dazheng, then even if he was replaced by himself, the result would not be much different.

After a while, Li Keyong stood up, came to the door and saw outside the house with his hands behind his back, snorted coldly, and exclaimed: "In terms of the power of monks and the overall combat power of the army, our Hedong Army is not as good as the Pinglu Army with the help of the demon clan. But if we want to compete with the bravery and good fighting of the generals, who can beat me in Hedong?"

After saying this, Li Keyong's eyes were filled with the ambition to win. "Although this battle is full of mountains and rivers, there are many turbulent waves, but when the war develops to the current situation, the outcome depends on the battle between the generals. This is God's helping me!"

His confidence in Li Cunxiao was as sufficient as his confidence in himself.

After Li Ye received the battle army report between Liu Dazheng and Li Cunxiao, he pondered for a moment and asked Song Jiao to go down and call the commanders to summon the main generals of Pinglu Army, Tianping Army, Henghai Army, and Zhaoyi Army to discuss matters in the big tent.

The discussion did not last long because the content was very simple. Li Ye issued a military order to attack Qinzhou City.

In this simple military order, Li Ye ordered all the elite troops to attack the city day and night. Li Ye's purpose was very clear, not to give Qinzhou City a chance to breathe until the city was taken down.

The general attack order came very suddenly, much earlier than expected, but Xue Wei, Kang Chengqian and others had no other meaning in this regard. The reinforcements in Fenzhou had been defeated, and only Yizhou reinforcements were left to fight with Liu Dazheng. Everyone knew about these military situations and had their own judgment on the development of the battle situation. The general attack was in line with the situation.

At the end of the military discussion, Li Ye looked around everyone and said calmly: "General Liu led his troops to intercept Li Cunxiao. The two sides are fighting fiercely, and the outcome is difficult to distinguish in the short term. At this moment, our army's general attack on Qinzhou City, but Li Keyong still has no rescue. Before Liu Dazheng and Li Cunxiao decided to win, capturing Qinzhou City is our current task!"

"The last general will receive the order!" The generals clasped their fists. Li Ye's meaning was very clear. It was difficult for Liu Dazheng to defeat Li Cunxiao, which means he could hold on for some time and not be intercepted by Li Cunxiao for the time being.

If the coalition forces want to capture Qinzhou City, they must rush to see Li Cunxiao break through Liu Dazheng's defense line. Otherwise, once Li Cunxiao arrives at Qinzhou City, the situation of the war will become extremely unfavorable to the coalition forces.

The next day, with the dull sound of trumpets, more than 100,000 iron-armored soldiers traveled from the coalition camp besieged on three sides. They first came out of the city in several magnificent torrents, and then under the command of drums and flags, they each led the school and arranged it into a formation.

Soon, there were three endless seas of iron armor on the open space on three sides outside the city. Nest cars, ladder cars and box cars were listed among them, and there were many people who were as high as ten feet above the top of the city.

After hundreds of tall catapults, countless rounds of bombardment of the city walls, as Li Ye's military order was issued, a wave of tides appeared on the three-sided iron armored ocean, spreading unparalleled to the top of the city.

The shouts of killing sounded one after another, shaking the sky and the earth.

Li Ye stood on the tower with his hands behind his back, looking at the army siege calmly.

Behind him were Xue Wei, Li Chengqian and other military governors and several civil servants.

The Holy Son and the Holy Son stood on both sides. The two stared at the battlefield for a while and exchanged their eyes behind Li Ye several times. In the end, the Holy Son couldn't help saying, "Can Liu Dazheng stop Li Cunxiao? Our army is all out and we will attack the city with all our strength. The formation is so open. If he can't stop Li Cunxiao, let Li Cunxiao come over, and the army cannot retreat even if it retreats."

Li Ye didn't say anything.

Of course he knew that the Holy Son was right. When the fierce battle was in full swing, if Li Cunxiao broke through Liu Dazheng's interception, he would indeed not be able to retreat in time. At that time, the coalition forces would suffer heavy losses.

In serious cases, if Li Keyong is well prepared and the situation allows, and they are in the middle and outside, the coalition forces will be in danger of defeat.

After the Shengzi finished speaking, Shengying saw that Li Ye had not spoken, so he asked, "Do you want to mobilize elite troops to support Liu Dazheng?"

Li Ye shook his head: "No need."

He then said firmly: "Liu Dazheng may not win, but he will not be quickly defeated by Li Cunxiao. We have three to five days to capture Qinzhou City."

The two nodded one after another. Since Li Ye was confident, they stopped talking. The question just now was because the situation was indeed not to be slackened, and they were responsible for reminding them. But in the same way, they also believed in Li Ye’s arrangements and believed that his dispatch could win the war.

After all, Li Ye's military talent was fully reflected in both the quelling of the Huang Chao Rebellion and the process of going to Hedong this time, and they were convinced.

In one day of fierce fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties. The accumulated corpses on the city wall had reached thousands, and blood stained the female wall red. In addition, the fierce battles between the two sides over the past few days, the war had reached a white-hot stage, and all the forces came out in full swing, and no more were retained.

One day and night, although Qinzhou City was in full swing, it was still firmly controlled by the Hedong Army.

The second day war continues.

In order to boost the morale of the army, Li Ye still supervised the battle behind the formation. The soldiers of the two armies fought to the death and drifted blood. However, none of the cultivators above the realm took action. When the cultivators had a balanced power, both sides had a tacit understanding.

At the end of the second day, not only the Pinglu army attacked the city wall several times, but the Zhaoyi army and the Tianping army also gained a foothold on the city wall several times. Although they were driven down in the end, it was enough for the entire army to see the dawn of victory.

The third day was the earliest presumption of Li Ye’s capture of the city.

This day's fierce battle was particularly bloody, and it had reached a point where it could be described as a bloody battle. Every section of the city was repeatedly stained with blood, and every moment, many soldiers fell in a pool of blood.

When the sun sets and it is almost dusk, the war can only be described as madness. Most of the soldiers of the Pinglu Army were as crazy as they were, and they launched a desperate attack on the defenders of Qinzhou City, hoping to capture Qinzhou City today.

However, until midnight, the war continued and the city was still not captured. The defense line of Qinzhou City was obviously shaking, and the defense of the Hedong Army had begun to be stretched, but the coalition forces just couldn't catch it.

When the time comes on the fourth day, many things begin to change.

The Pinglu army became more irritable, the Hedong army guarding the city also became more anxious, and the bloody battle between the soldiers on both sides became more crazier. They knew very well that the battle between Li Cunxiao and Liu Dazheng might be decided in the next moment.

If the soldiers of the Pinglu Army want to take the victory or defeat of the war into their own hands, they must seize the city before that, otherwise the advantage they have gained will be gone in a flash, and their lives will be difficult to protect.

The soldiers of the Hedong Army struggled to support them. They looked to the northeast in the blood and fire countless times, hoping that Li Cunxiao would capture the flag and lead the army to rescue them.

Li Ye always stood on the Wangstá with a calm expression on his face, watching the battlefield calmly, and seemed to be in control of Zhizhu and full of confidence.

Li Keyong, who was standing in front of Qinzhou City Tower, had the same expression as him.

But in fact, no one knew what the two of them had in their minds.

On the night of the fourth day, Li Ye walked down the tower, Li Keyong walked down the city wall, and both sides summoned their confidant staff and began to discuss matters urgently.

Li Ye didn't say much in the military discussion, just asked everyone to prepare, and the winner would be decided tomorrow. Cultivators above the real person realm should also be prepared to take action to fight against each other.

When Li Keyong returned to the Political Affairs Hall, his face was as gloomy as if he could drip. After listening to the casualties of the generals as usual, he said without doubt: "We must hold on for another three days!"

According to the generals' speeches just now, it would be a blessing that Qinzhou City could be held for another day, which of course was something that Li Keyong could not accept. He had to continue to defend Qinzhou City. As for three days, it was just the first easier goal.

However, it was this goal that made all the generals hunched their heads. The previous attitude of being so passionate and dying was gone.

"Why, are you afraid of being beaten by the Pinglu Army? Don't forget, my Hedong Army has never lost! There are still tens of thousands of soldiers in the city that can fight. What's wrong with defending the city for three days?" Li Keyong couldn't help but be furious when he saw that everyone was speechless.

Among the generals, no one answered. No matter how provoked Li Keyong, they lost their previous morale.

After being forced by Li Keyong to refuse to express his opinion, Li Sizhao looked up and asked, "Your Highness, it's been four days, why haven't Li Cunxiao arrived yet?"

Everyone had thought before that Liu Dazheng was no match for Li Cunxiao at all and would be defeated quickly. Li Cunxiao was able to arrive in Qinzhou City three days ago, but now there is no news.

The hope in the hearts of the Hedong Army soldiers have gradually turned into despair.

Li Ke's face changed, and the corners of his mouth moved, and he couldn't answer for a moment. After a while, he slapped the table in front of him with a hard palm: "Get down for me!"

The generals looked at each other, but did not dare to speak, and bowed one after another.

When everyone had dispersed, Li Ke punched the ground hard, his clothes and hair danced, "Li Cunxiao, you have been in four days, and you have not arrived in Qinzhou City yet! At such a critical moment, you have misled me! If I lose this battle, what's the difference between you and Long Qi?!"
