Chapter 907 Send Your Master to Death
"But……"
An old general looked at the soldiers on the high wall with a look of pity on his face.
"Nothing to worry about."
Shi Chang'an spoke in an extremely cold and heartless manner, "Xiahou Ling is suspicious, and so is Ji Rongqing. If they weren't absolutely certain, these two would never send out the entire army. What we want is to severely damage the entire Beiling army, not just one or two vanguards."
He looked up at the others:
"I know you generals are heartbroken about the blood shed on the city walls, but war is not without its share of casualties."
"Leaving the city to meet the enemy would kill them. They would also die if the Beiling cavalry broke through the gates. Now we are using ourselves as bait. If we can convince Xiahou Ling that we are targeting them at the lowest cost, and let the Beiling army down, we can achieve the final victory. Their death will be well deserved."
"You all were soft-hearted for a moment, and you ruined the entire situation. Not only did the people who died before die in vain, but even they..."
Shi Changan raised his chin slightly and looked at the people fighting bloody battles on the city wall.
"Their lives are but a knife's edge, ready to be used to slaughter the people of Wei when Beiling breaks through this scheme and strikes back against us. Is this what you generals want to see?"
All the generals present turned pale when they saw the white-haired man with cold eyes, and even Zhan Meng felt a chill down his spine.
He had killed many people, and there was blood everywhere during the civil war in Beiling. However, he was paving the way with human lives and setting up a scheme with blood. If he had not been involved in the scheme, and if the news had not been spread long ago, even the national teacher would have fallen into his trap.
Zhan Meng followed Di Shuangcheng and others closely, watching Shi Chang'an act coldly and decisively, completely ignoring the increasing casualties on the city wall and the increasingly fierce offensive of Beiling.
As if they truly believed that the troops in Luoyan Pass were insufficient, in just seven or eight days, Luoyan Pass was in danger under the continuous attacks.
…
"Military Advisor, we can't wait any longer. Beiling is constantly testing us, and all those killed and injured are our Great Wei men..."
"wait."
"military adviser!"
"I said wait."
The generals in Luoyan Pass left with red eyes and anger.
…
Beiling camp outside the pass.
"Shi Chang'an is truly ruthless. Even though so many people died in his scheme, he's not afraid of a rebellion within the Wei army."
Lu Zhinian looked at the direction of Luoyan Pass from afar and heard the spies report that there was a river of blood and a mountain of corpses under the city wall of Luoyan Pass. In order to gain their trust and make them believe that Luoyan Pass was in great danger and that Dawei was unable to resist, the people of Dawei even opened the city gates to collect the corpses in secret.
Xiahou Ling: "He is a madman."
Even though he has become more tolerant and seems to be doing it for the greater good, he is still the paranoid and crazy Shi Yulin at heart.
Lu Zhinian raised his lips when he heard this: "When do we start?"
"Wait a little longer." Xiahou Ling said indifferently, "Shi Chang'an must have set up a plan that is foolproof. We have to let him have enough fun before we take action."
"When the Great Wei thinks we're trapped, they'll unleash all the might of the Northwest on us, sending out all the troops from Luoyan Pass. If the Northwest is defeated, the entire Great Wei will be in Beiling's hands."
And Shi Yulin.
He thought he had victory in his grasp, that the outcome was settled, that he had calculated everything, but he discovered that everything was fake, and he was a joke from beginning to end.
Xiahou Ling was looking forward to seeing his face, gasping for breath and full of regret as he fell from that height!
…
The fighting between the two armies became more and more intense. As the Wei Dynasty was defeated, Beiling sent more and more troops. The blood on the city walls had already solidified, and the battle flags were scattered. Everywhere you could see the wailing of wounded soldiers and those soldiers who clenched their fists and trembled with endurance.
Just as corpses were scattered all over the ground outside the city and the atmosphere in the city was almost out of control, and Di Shuangcheng and others were about to explode, the entire Beiling army finally came out in full force. More than 100,000 people attacked Luoyan Pass at night with an unstoppable momentum. The dense crowds fighting and shouting shook the heavens and the earth.
"Report, the Beiling army is invading and is already ten miles away."
"Report, scouts are reporting that the Beiling army has broken camp, leaving only about 10,000 men guarding the baggage."
"Report..."
Voices continued to ring out from the city walls, and in the distance one could already hear the sounds of armored war horses hitting the ground.
Looking at the densely packed army rushing towards this side, listening to the endless reports from the Wei army, such as the eager expressions on the faces of some veterans in the camp, Zhan Meng felt his heart beating like thunder.
"It's done!"
An old general's face flushed with joy: "Military Advisor, it's done!"
Shi Chang'an stood on the city wall, his gaze fixed on the distance. He looked at the dense crowd of people. The strong wind made his cloak rustle and his white hair fly, but he did not show any joy at all. His face remained calm: "Wait a little longer."
wait?
Zhan Meng's heart skipped a beat.
Wait…what?
The Beiling army has already come out in full force, the flag of the National Master's Mansion is also in front of the battle, and the people in Pingtou Valley have been hidden, waiting for an ambush. Isn't this what they wanted before?
Now everything has gone according to Shi Changan's plan. The national teacher trusted them to lead the troops in and out of the game, and the Beiling army has become a "turtle in a jar" as they calculated.
What is Shi Changan waiting for?
Zhan Meng felt uneasy, his hand subconsciously touched his waist, and he tried hard to keep a straight face without showing any trace, and said as if worriedly:
"But Military Advisor, the Beiling army is almost at the gates of the city. I'm afraid we can't hold them back. I know you have your own plans, but if we don't act now and wait for all the Beiling troops to gather at the gates, even if we meet them head-on, we'll suffer heavy casualties..."
He was halfway through his words when Shi Changan suddenly turned his head and looked at him. His eyes were so clear that they made people feel inexplicably nervous.
Zhan Meng subconsciously took a half step back: "Military advisor?"
Bang--
Bang--
Two bright lights suddenly exploded in the sky, instantly tearing through the originally dark night sky.
When the starlight fell, Zhan Meng was filled with horror to see Shi Changan, who had always been cold and indifferent, smiling at him, with a spring breeze between his eyebrows.
"The time has come."
"when……"
"Of course, when you send your master to his death."
Swish!
Upon hearing this, Zhan Meng's face changed instantly. He suddenly stretched out his hand towards his waist and pounced towards Shi Chang'an as fast as lightning. However, just as he got close and had no time to swing the cold light in his hand, he was kicked in the knee, and the next moment he flew backwards.
His chest felt like it was hit by a huge rock, and the pain made his eyes go black. Zhan Meng fell to the ground and forced himself to swallow the blood in his throat, then wanted to turn over and run away. However, before he could react, the people around him leaned forward to block his retreat, and a heavy punch forced him back to the ground.
Tu Bai stepped on Zhan Meng's wrist to remove the dagger from his hand, then picked it up and waved it up and down with his fingertips like a fluttering butterfly, landing on Zhan Meng.
