However, Qin Canglan led 20,000 soldiers and was invincible all the way to Tuoba Lie's central military camp.
The battle was so fierce that Tuoba Lie naturally heard the noise. He cursed Leng Kui in his heart. He pretended to negotiate with him on the surface, but then he turned around and attacked his army. Leng was a piece of shit! He quickly integrated the army and let the Northern Yan army meet the attack of the Great Zhou.
When he found out that the Great Zhou had only 20,000 troops, he felt relieved. After all, he had an army of 80,000, and could not be shaken by a mere 20,000 troops.
However, the next moment, he saw Qin Canglan charging into battle, and his expression changed slightly.
Only less than 10,000 soldiers returned from the 20,000 troops that went to besiege Zibo Town. This was a fierce general who had starved for four days and four nights but did not surrender the city to Northern Yan. He alone could have the aura of a thousand troops! But Emperor Jingxuan sent him to the border just to calm down the situation. The commander of the border was Leng Kui. With Leng Kui's temperament, how could he let Qin Canglan lead his troops to fight Northern Yan?
"General! It's Qin Canglan!"
His lieutenants were also aware of this disadvantage.
Qin Canglan has fought on the battlefield for decades, and his fierce reputation is enough to scare the Northern Yan soldiers. Every soldier in the Great Zhou is proud to follow him into battle.
With such morale, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Great Zhou is terrifying.
Only Emperor Jingxuan treated the treasure as if it were not a treasure. If Northern Yan had more powerful generals like Qin Canglan, it would have conquered all the other countries and unified the world long ago!
Tuoba Lie calmed down and said, "Don't panic. No matter how powerful Qin Canglan is, he can't defeat my army of more than 80,000 with only 20,000 soldiers! It's not like he personally brought out the Qin family's heavy cavalry!"
As we all know, heavy cavalry is the most powerful, but Leng Kui's 50,000 troops only have 5,000 heavy cavalry, which is no match for the Northern Yan army! "I'll go meet him!"
After Tuoba Lie finished speaking, he rode his horse towards Qin Canglan. Along the way, he swung his sword and killed many soldiers of the Great Zhou.
Just when he was about to attack the next one, Qin Canglan's big knife chopped over.
The soldier of the Great Zhou was saved, without any hesitation or panic, and turned around to reap the life of a Northern Yan soldier! Tuoba Lie looked at Qin Canglan with a bad look in his eyes, sneered, drew out his long sword and stabbed his horse's belly: "Marshal Qin, I haven't seen you for many years, you are still so tough, what's the matter? You want to attack my camp with an army of 20,000? Have you been tricked by someone?"
This is implying that Leng Kui lied about military intelligence.
But unfortunately, Qin Canglan just hated Leng Kui, not that he was deaf or blind.
Qin Canglan blocked his attack with a precise knife: "As for you cowards, 20,000 is too much for me! Killing a chicken with a butcher knife, I'm giving you Beiyan some face!"
"It's no use just talking, Marshal Qin!"
Tuoba Lie and Helian Ye were from the same school. Tuoba Lie was not only Helian Ye's junior fellow student, but also Helian Ye's most trusted confidant. Although he was not as skilled in using troops as Helian Ye, he was not inferior to Helian Ye in single combat.
He is confident that he can defeat Qin Canglan.
But the facts proved that he overestimated himself and underestimated Qin Canglan.
His sword had clearly stabbed in front of Qin Canglan's eyes, but Qin Canglan cut off his sword with one blow! If he hadn't dodged quickly, Qin Canglan's second blow would have cut off his arm!
Fortunately, their military strength is indeed superior, and all I have to do is delay Qin Canglan. The longer it drags on, the greater the casualties of the Great Zhou will suffer, and I will eventually be defeated!
As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, screams of Northern Yan soldiers were heard from behind.
The deputy general shouted: "General! There are also soldiers from the Great Zhou in the rear!"
Su Mo's troops arrived and launched an attack from the rear, attacking from both sides. The nearly 90,000 troops of Northern Yan were beaten back by the five hundred thousand troops of Great Zhou.
Tuoba Lie watched as more and more Northern Yan soldiers fell, the morale of the army collapsed, and he himself was injured.
The situation was hopeless and he could only order a withdrawal.
They fled into the mountains and forests.
"Mo'er! Don't chase a desperate enemy." Qin Canglan called out to Su Mo.
Su Mo frowned: "It's a pity that Tuoba Lie ran away."
Qin Canglan said, "They can't run away. They have no food and can't survive in the mountains for a few days. Let's go and see how Xiaoxiao is doing."
Su Mo responded: "Yes, great-uncle."
The two went to find Su Xiaoxiao.
After Jing Yi was captured, Su Xiaoxiao immediately led her troops to chase him. However, the other party was riding a horse and disappeared into the woods.
She returned to the canyon, holding a bloody sword in her hand, with blood splattered on her cheeks. The cold wind blew on her cold cheeks, and her eyes were cold.
“Xiaoxiao!”
Su Mo saw the little figure who was suppressing his rage, and quickly got off the horse, "Are you okay?"
Su Xiaoxiao turned around, her eyes red with anger: "Jing Yi was captured."
Su Mo was stunned.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were cold: "How are you doing?"
Su Mo said: "Tuoba Lie was driven away and hid in the mountains with his army."
Su Xiaoxiao looked in the direction where Jing Yi disappeared: "They also took Jing Yi into the mountains."
Su Mo said seriously: "Jing Yi is not an ordinary soldier, he is the young marquis of Weiwu Marquis Mansion. The Beiyan people will not kill him immediately after capturing him. He is an important hostage. You go back to Wengcheng and wait for news. I will take people to investigate."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, went to the woods a mile away to ride a horse, and hurried back to the city as fast as possible.
The first thing she did when she entered the military camp was to ask where Leng Jue was.
Wei Xun stayed behind in the camp today. Seeing her murderous look, he didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly replied, "He just came back. I just talked to him and asked him how the battle went, but he ignored me! Leng Kui's grandson is so great? He is so arrogant!"
Su Xiaoxiao went to Leng Jue's tent without saying a word, dragged the frightened Leng Jue out, and threw him to the ground without mercy.
Leng Jue felt the pain, sat up and shouted: "Qin, you are crazy!"
Su Xiaoxiao kicked him in the chest, knocking him to the ground, and he immediately spit out blood.
Wei Xun saw something was wrong and ran over quickly: "Boss!"
The rest of the soldiers also gathered around, including the Chiying Army and Leng Kui's troops, and no one understood what was going on.
Su Xiaoxiao drew out her sword and pointed it coldly at Leng Jue.
Leng Jue was frightened by Su Xiaoxiao's murderous aura. He ran away quickly and had no idea that Jing Yi had been captured.
He knew that group of people were powerful, but didn't she come back safely?
What was she angry about? If she was going to be angry, it should be him. She asked him to stop that group of people. Was she sending herself to death? Thinking of this, he said confidently: "Mr. Qin, don't think that you can do evil at the border just because you are the granddaughter of Qin Canglan! I warn you, this is our Leng family's territory! You'd better be respectful to me! Considering that you are a woman and a first-time offender, I won't bother with you! If you continue to make trouble, I will not be polite to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xiaoxiao cut his tendons with a sword!
This is indeed different from a cold, or it may be that I am too weak and the sequelae are a bit obvious.
