Chapter 102

: Continue to fight

Everyone sat down at Cao Qian's hall. Gu Du told his thoughts. His idea was very simple. If you want to kill the Spirit Emperor, you must first enter the southern border and enter the Imperial City of the Ling Kingdom. However, with the current strength of the Ze Kingdom, it is basically a dream.

As the saying goes, a thousand troops are easy to get, but good generals are hard to find. If he and Lixia become generals, they can lead troops, but compared to Chu Qin, they are still apprentices.

The fact that this battle can be won is not because of how powerful he Gu Duyou is, but because the head coach of Lingguo is too arrogant.

If the Ling Kingdom's army did not attack the city as soon as it came up, but passed by the city, camped in the north of the city, and cut off their food routes, they would have to go out of the city to fight bloody battles, otherwise even if reinforcements arrived, they would be hit head-on. The 200,000 Ling Kingdom's army could be divided into two, and the north and south were fighting at the same time, and they would have been wiped out.

Cao Qian and Dongfang Buwen nodded together. Gu Du also said that he hoped that he would have enough time to take his apprentice. A person's life is limited, and destroying the Ling Kingdom is just a wish, but whether it can be realized depends on God's will.

But even if he cannot kill the Spirit Emperor with his hand and avenge his wife and children in his lifetime, if the disciples he brought out can destroy the Ling Kingdom and kill the Spirit Emperor in the future, he will do his best.

Therefore, Gu Du wanted to join the Imperial Spirit Section.

Cao Qian saw Dongfang Buwen. Dongfang Buwen was not as excited as he thought, but said calmly: "The power of Lingguo is obvious."

Cao Qian nodded. Gu Du and Li Xia were already shocked in their eyes, but in Lingguo, they were just white-robed soul masters. Although they could compete with black robes in terms of ability, they were still as masters as Chu Qin.

Gu Du is right, taking an apprentice is more important than leading a soldier. Everyone can join the army, but not everyone can cultivate to the level of Gu Du.

Dongfang Buwen asked, "Master Gu, when will he meet the emperor?"

Gu Du replied: "It depends on what Lingguo plans. Although they retreated to Zhenbei Pass, with the Guanzhong defenders, they also have 160,000 or 70,000 troops. If they come again, we will still have to fight bloody battles. Now we have to wait. They will be defeated in the first battle, so we must report back to the Ling Emperor to see if the Ling Emperor still wants to fight."

A few days later, the Spirit Emperor received the war report but was not angry. After Gu Du's incident, the Spirit Emperor began to reflect on his first throne and was too eager to establish his authority and Jianye, which led to Gu Du and Li Xia's defection. If Gu Du still belongs to the spiritual country, the country will be destroyed.

Of course, reflection is not only reflected on the law, but also the pride of being proud of one's contributions, and underestimating the enemy and fighting by mistake is not forgiven. However, the army is still in Zhenbei Pass, and he cannot be removed from his post, let alone punish him.

Emperor Ling personally wrote an edict, rebuking Ju Fazheng and ordered Chu Qin to supervise the army, and at the same time ordered Ju Fazheng to break through Lancheng within three months.

Ling Emperor believed in Zhong Qi's speculation that the defenders of Lancheng were already the last force of Zeguo. As long as they captured Lancheng, even if the army no longer penetrated into the grassland, Zeguo would never be able to invade the territory for decades.

Therefore, this battle has to be fought, even if it is to destroy all the remaining 100,000 people, because there are still 110,000 defenders in the three gates, and the three gates are at risk and guard them. Lingguo has the confidence.

Six hundred miles quickly sent back the edict. After receiving the order, Ju Fazheng said to Chu Qin: "From the priest, I plan to lead the army across the city according to your wishes and camp in the north of the city..."

Seeing Chu Qin shaking her head, Ju Fazheng didn't say anything further.

Chu Qin said: "General, the emperor did not ask you to mobilize the defenders of Zhenbei Pass, then your troops are only 130,000. Now the time has passed. The rebel reinforcements have arrived, and the number is equivalent to ours. Moreover, the rebels are good at field battles. If we set up camp in the wilderness, we will only bring shame on ourselves."

Ju Fazheng frowned and asked, "What should you do according to your wishes?"

Chu Qin sighed and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth?"

Ju Fazheng said, "Please give me advice from the priest."

Chu Qin shook her head and said, "I dare not give advice. Let me tell you, the general will consider it yourself."

"There are three passes in our country, which are dangerous and guarded. The total number of defenders in the three passes is 110,000. Although they are scattered in three places, if you want to break the pass, you cannot try it lightly without 100,000 troops."

"However, the rebels moved south and were exhausted and injured. I am afraid that most of their military and civilians would be in trouble. The defenders in Lancheng should be the last force of Zeguo. One person would die, and one person would be less."

Ju Fazheng suddenly understood and said, "You mean, the emperor wants to use these 130,000 troops to consume the final combat power of the rebels. I just need to order a death battle?"

Chu Qin said: "It is best not to fight to the death. Order the soldiers to open the mountain to get stones and prepare more tinder oil. Just use a catapult to throw stones into the city and tinder oil tanks. If the enemy goes to fight, then fight to the death. If the general doesn't go to fight, the general has a three-month deadline, so you can take it slowly."

Gu Du began to become anxious, and Li Xia asked him: "What's wrong?"

Gu Du replied: "It's been eight days, and there is no movement. If the Ling Kingdom withdraws its troops, the intelligence should have arrived. Since there is no intelligence, it means that the Ling Emperor still wants to fight, but since he wants to fight, why is there no movement?"

Lixia said, "I don't know, you can say whatever you think."

Gu Du said, "You didn't even think about it. You can't just rely on me like this. What if we have to separate one day?"

Li Xia pouted, pondered for a while, her face became solemn, and she said, "If I were the Spirit Emperor, I would use the remaining tens of thousands of troops to consume the last force of the Zeguo. If I were the commander of the army, I would not let the soldiers attack the city, as the casualties would be too serious. I would use the catapult machine to throw stones into the city walls every day and turbulent oil tanks into the city."

Gu Du nodded and asked again: "Why haven't there any movement yet?"

Lixia replied: "Cut the mountain to get the stones and pour the tinder tank."

Gu Du nodded and said, "I'm just thinking about this."

Li Xia asked, "What are you going to do?"

Gu Du replied: "You talk first."

Li Xia pondered for a while and said, "The ambushing troops under the south bank of the Jiehe River. When they come, they will fight out in one fell swoop, rob their siege equipment, and fight back to Zhenbei Pass."

Gu Du stood up and said, "Let's go and find the general."

Two days later, the provocateur reported that the enemy had left Zhenbei Pass, with a vast army of about 50,000 or 60,000 people, but they were all infantrymen, carrying six catapults.

Gu Du and others had been ambushed for two days, and were already anxious, and they were ready to fight, just waiting for a big kill.

After waiting for a whole morning, I didn't hear footsteps until I was in the middle of the hour, but the footsteps stopped in the distance. Gu Du felt strange and carefully showed his head to observe, but he saw countless tincture oil cans thrown towards the Jiehe River.

"Not good!" Gu Du screamed: "Retreat quickly!"

Rockets shot in the sky, and the Border River suddenly turned into a sea of ​​fire. Countless soldiers from Zeguo were on fire and howled and ran around.
