Chapter 142

Bloody Romance

Letting Qin Jinguo go was just a casual move. Neither Yue Lingxi nor Liu Buqi had any unrealistic ideas about this matter.

Therefore, not long after she left, the fierce attack of Guannei Hou's army was launched again, which did not make people feel depressed.

But this time the attack lasted for more than three hours, which is really unbelievable!

Siege warfare is usually full of waves of storms, and the life-threatening fighting style like the current one completely treats the soldiers and generals as worthless!

After all, it is an obvious fact that tens of thousands of cavalry are cruising on the grassland outside the Datong section of the Great Wall. They may suddenly launch a charge and attack the siege soldiers at any time. Isn’t this enough to alert the enemy commander?

Yue Lingxi was the meritorious commander who led the army to win the only war of annihilation in the hundreds of years since the founding of the Taiyue Empire!

Although the siege lasted much longer than expected, thanks to skilled command techniques, the defenders were able to be rotated as much as possible to ensure that the soldiers had enough rest time.

Therefore, the attack of Guannei Hou's army was destined to be a useless effort with much ado about nothing!

As dusk approached, Yue Lingxi shook his head helplessly as he watched the attacking soldiers retreat like water. One incompetent general can tire out thousands of soldiers!

I didn't even use the cavalry this time. I really don't understand why the other side would drive the soldiers with low morale to keep dying!

Do you want to use human lives to build siege ladders?

As a bystander, Liu Buqi keenly discovered that something was wrong!

"Don't abandon. This way of fighting is obviously treating this army as a discarded army! Are you trying to sacrifice pawns to save the chariot?" After saying this, he shook his head!

Almost all of Guannei Hou's main forces have been concentrated here. If these can be discarded at will, then what is Yue Wuji's "chariot" worth protecting?

Yue Lingxi, suddenly awakened by Liu Buqi's words, slammed his fist against the city wall. Looking at the corpses strewn on the ground outside the city, he snorted coldly, "Humph! He's trying to trap and kill my Taiyue soldiers!"

This Yue Wuji, or rather the person currently in charge of the other side's army, is truly despicable! He is completely taking advantage of the civil war in the empire to continuously weaken the empire's combat power!

From breaking into Shandong to suppressing Jingchu, the purpose is to let Prince Ning join the game! From Yuzhou to the Great Wall, the purpose is to consume the troops of Tiance Mansion and Youzhou!

This is completely using the blood of the Taiyue people to deplete the country's strength! Although the person who used the plan was extremely cruel, it was a wise plan!

Even if Yue Lingxi discovered the clues now, there was no better way to defend himself! He still had to fight back!

The only thing we can do is to try our best to save the soldiers on both sides!

…

Late that night, Yue Lingxi, like the soldiers defending the city, looked at the local camp in the distance. According to the analysis of the offensive during the day, it was very likely that the Hou army inside the pass would fight a night battle tonight!

Therefore, he ordered that one-third of the troops defending the city be left to stand guard, and the rest of the soldiers should go down to rest.

Unexpectedly, in the first half of the night, although the enemy camp was brightly lit, there was no movement at all?

This wasn't like Wang Sheng and Zhang Xiruo's previous raids on the city, where they could rely on surprise! With the defenders already on high alert, raiding the camp wouldn't have any effect at all!

Therefore, this strange calmness is really abnormal!

…

Until the second half of the night, something big seemed to have happened in the enemy camp, and suddenly there was a loud noise!

Afterwards, countless figures could be seen running around, which made Yue Lingxi, who had been working without rest, a little confused!

"Is this a 'camp explosion'? Why is there chaos for no reason?"

He called out to the young soldier who had been with him the whole time but was actually drowsy and collapsed on the edge of the city wall, and asked him to immediately arrange a few scouts to investigate.

After a while, the scouts turned back. There were indeed some problems on the other side. The distance was too far and they could only see that there seemed to be two groups of people confronting each other!

Liu Buqi had also come to Yue Lingxi's side at this time, "Lingxi, there is such a big disturbance on the other side, could it be that Qin Jinguo is doing something unusual?"

Qin Jinguo's life experience is well known to everyone in the royal family. If she really returns to the camp to verify Yue Wuji's identity, judging from her performance during the day, she is likely to do something extreme!

Yue Lingxi nodded silently but did not take any action. Liu Buqi knew that he was not the kind of person who would sit on the sidelines and watch tigers fight. It was just that the situation was still unclear and it was hard to say whether it was a trick of the enemy!

They waited until shouts of killing were heard from the opposite camp, and the scouts who had been hiding near the enemy camp rushed back to report.

We don’t know why a conflict broke out on the other side, and there have been casualties!

Yue Lingxi then made up his mind and signaled Xiao Junzi to prepare for war. Liu Feiyan, who had arrived earlier, ran over excitedly and asked to assist Xiao Junzi. After getting approval, he hurried to the grassland outside the city.

Half an hour later, the young soldier reported back that everything was ready. At this time, the conflict in the enemy camp had intensified, and more and more soldiers were involved in the internal strife!

If it was a strategy to lure the enemy, arranging such a scene would be too realistic!

Yue Lingxi no longer hesitated and directly ordered Xiao Junzi and Liu Feiyan to attack! Although the soldiers defending the city were also secretly preparing, they did not mobilize a single soldier!

The two sides were very close to each other. After the Youzhou cavalry rushed out of the Great Wall, they quickly jumped on their horses and rushed into the enemy camp. From the Great Wall, one could also see a long black dragon constantly moving in the dimly lit area!

The enemy's internal strife was undeniable! Otherwise, how could they continue to ignore such a large army that broke into the barracks?

Yue Lingxi waved his hand again, and tens of thousands of soldiers defending the city rushed out of the protection of the Great Wall and headed directly towards the enemy's barracks!

Standing with his hands behind his back, wearing light armor, he waved his hand and moved thousands of troops, their horses trampled on the allied camps, their morale was high, the King of Yan was mighty and invincible!

Looking at Yue Lingxi who was giving orders with such confidence, Liu Buqi just looked at the man in front of him quietly!

After Yue Lingxi's expedition to Yehe, his entire spirit and energy underwent a drastic change. If the previous King of Yan was a little too successful at a young age and too aggressive!

Although he is not very old now, his edges and corners have become more restrained, and he already has the aura of a powerful leader who can split the land and become a marquis!

The situation on the distant battlefield gradually became clear after the Youzhou army intervened. There was no need to pay further attention to it. Yue Lingxi, who had gathered his spirits, noticed the gazes of the people around him and stretched his hand back without looking back.

The soft and boneless jade hand was tightly held in the rough big hand covered with calluses. She took two steps forward comfortably and leaned her head lightly on the broad shoulder!

Liu Buqi suddenly felt a little out of place! An inexplicable sense of disharmony lingered in his heart! It turned out that everything he saw on TV before was fake!

The dependence between two people in the war is not a bloody romance, but just the mutual support between two people who are extremely fragile between life and death!

At this moment, what he saw was a country in flames!

And she only hoped that he would never set foot on the battlefield that constantly devoured lives!
