Chapter 710 Goddess Lower Realm
"Bo Li, as the saying goes, when a gentleman seeks revenge, he must find the right person. You should know better than me how brother Ling died. Now that the murderer has already been punished, why do you want to send a teacher to attack us in the Central Plains? Make the people of the two countries innocent Suffering?" Juetu, wearing a silver battle robe, a shining silver flying armor, holding a spear, commanding a bay red horse majestically, shouted loudly to Boli who came to the front of the formation.

"Ju Tu, what this commander wants is your life, do you have the guts to deliver it yourself?" Bo Li yelled loudly with eyebrows raised.

"Okay, let's see if you, the marshal, have the ability to take my life!" Qu Tuna shouted, holding a spear, driving a BMW, and rushed into the Xirong formation as quickly as lightning, and fought with Boli. Bo Li was taken aback immediately, he raised the big knife and held the spear that was dug out, feeling that it was very heavy.

"Kutu, boy, you really did have a few hits. You deserve to have fought with my brother, but there are even stronger opponents among the strong ones. Just watch!" Bo Li laughed loudly, swung his big knife, and slashed at Quetu with all his strength. Huo Tu's psoas muscles, Huo Tu didn't panic at all, but intercepted Bo Li's sword with a spear, Bo Li suddenly became murderous, and fought hard with Huo Tu. They fought for dozens of rounds, and the two sides were evenly divided. .

"Marshal, something is wrong, our ranch is on fire!" At this moment of difficulty, Na Ke, Khabarovsk's general, climbed to the ground to report.

Bo Li was shocked at once. He quickly fended off the sudden spear, and returned to his horse to look at the pasture. Sure enough, the wind helped the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind.

"Qutu, you people from the Central Plains are really treacherous, how dare you use tricks!" Bo Li glared at Qutu, scolded him loudly, and hurriedly led the entire army to retreat to rescue the fire.

"Hahaha, if it weren't for the marshal's ingenious plan, I'm afraid we would not be able to defeat Xirong's iron cavalry for a while. To be honest, Prince Jin's martial arts are really impressive. For the first time on the battlefield, he solved the enemy's food problem so quickly. It can be said that the contribution is indispensable!" At night, the bonfire was lit in the camp of the Zhou army, and the laughing and laughing soldiers of the Zhou army celebrated the great victory during the day, and An Tong couldn't help but compliment Jin Wang's ability vigorously, which made everyone feel great about Jin Wang Shui Jian. for admiration.

"Kutu, although they won the first battle, Xirong should not be underestimated. They will definitely attack Shuilongguan with all their strength after losing their logistics. We must retreat and hold on, delaying the enemy's troops and lowering their morale." Cheng Rong reminded Qutu soberly.

"Reporting to the Marshal, the admonishment doctor Ming Chao was ordered by the emperor to send a large amount of supplies and food, and please check and accept it." At this time, the general An Xiaotong came forward to report.

"Okay! This time we have enough soldiers and food, we will definitely be able to confront Xi Rong!" Qu Tu couldn't help but overjoyed.

After Mingchao read out the will of the first repair, he handed over all the ledgers of logistics and supplies to Qutu. Qutu was immediately happy and asked Mingchao to go to the banquet together.

"Master Ming, since you are going out of the customs by order, can you stay with Qutu to fight against the enemy?" Qutu clasped his hands to Mingchao.

"There are marshals, Prince Jin, and Mr. Cheng Rong here, so I am naturally willing to join the war. Besides, the emperor's order for me is to stay in the army as a counselor!" Ming Chao smiled modestly.

"Okay, Master Ming, I, Cheng Rong, don't need you to do anything else. I just ask you to manage the food and grass of the army well so that our army can last for three months. Do you think it's okay?" Cheng Rong looked at it very seriously. Ming Chao.

"Okay, this one will definitely turn the tide!" Ming Chao clapped his hands.

Besides, Marshal Boli of Xirong lost his grain, grass and horse farm, and winter was about to begin. He was afraid that the army would become more and more exhausted, so he decided to attack with all his strength and conquer Shuilong Pass in one fell swoop. After the last full meal, they began to attack Shuilongguan on a large scale. For a while, the sound of gongs and drums was loud, and the sound of killing shook the sky. The place was hit by a soaring cannon and collapsed. When I dug out and saw the dangerous situation, I personally commanded Cheng Rong and Jin Wang Shuijian to go up to the city. After failing to capture Shuilongguan, they had to retreat three miles unhappy.

"Marshal, today is really thrilling. I didn't expect that Xirong's attack on the city was no worse than a field battle. After a day of attack, the city wall was almost occupied by the enemy." Panting heavily, An Tong, who was a little tired, took the military flag and came. Give the order in front of Qutu.

"An Tong, although the enemy is brave, as long as we defend against danger and fight to the death, after half a month, Xi Rong will definitely retreat!" Kuang Tu patted An Tong on the shoulder very satisfied.

"Report to the Marshal, Xi Rong sent a letter and handed it to the Marshal." At this time, the general stepped forward and handed over a letter, dug open it for a closer look, immediately furious, and loudly reprimanded: "It's unreasonable, Xi Rong is so arrogant , who asked you to accept their letterhead?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Cheng Rong immediately stepped forward to take the letter paper, looked carefully, and couldn't help being furious: "It's really outrageous, Xi Rong even said that the reason for the war was to crusade against my Great Zhou Demon Queen, and wanted to Our Great Zhou handed over the Queen Mother before we can retreat and make peace, what a bunch of nonsense!"

"Xi Rong must have something to rely on for speaking like this, otherwise how would he dare to be so presumptuous when we gain an advantage on the battlefield?" Que Tu said angrily.

"That's right, Qutu, we are under your tower, hahaha, let me tell you, our Xirong Wolf Lord has sent spies to spread unfavorable rumors about you in your Dazhou, and your reputation in this country has been ruined, how about it? , we find someone to yell at you like this every day, we are not afraid that you will not be ashamed of your scolding, how about it, come out and fight if you have the guts, otherwise what kind of hero are you?" At this time, the water dragon was turned off, and the formation of Xi Rong soldiers came. There was a burst of insults.

"Hmph, shameless, pass the order, stick to the city wall, and don't fight the enemy!" Jue Tu gave the city a contemptuous look, and immediately ordered.

"Quitu, the enemy is trying to interfere with our combat effectiveness at this time. Since this is the case, we can also confront each other. When the soldiers of the West Army are exhausted, we will shoot arrows at random and burn down the camps of the soldiers of the West Army, so that they dare not approach our Shuilong Pass. !" Cheng Rong looked down at the enemy army below the city for a while, and immediately suggested digging.

"Okay! Master Cheng has a clever plan!" Qu Tu couldn't help but smiled happily.

After half a month, the Xirong army unexpectedly did not run out of food, but still sent troops to harass and insult every day without stopping. Qu Tu felt that the situation was extraordinary, so he immediately called the generals to hold a military meeting.

"Quitu, don't be nervous. The reason why Xirong's soldiers haven't really run out of food is because Xirong's customs are different from ours. Not only do they have food, but they also usually have cured meat and milk. It is very convenient to store it, so even if they lose food and grass , you can continue to persevere!" Cheng Rong explained to Qutu.

"Master Cheng, how should we resist the enemy now?" Jin Wang Shuijian couldn't help but asked impatiently.

"We don't have to worry about this, because our army can not only stand firm, but also attack. As long as we take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, we will lead our troops to rush out suddenly and attack the enemy at night, so that the enemy will also be in panic all day long!" Cheng Rong stroked his beard. Shu Ran smiled.

"Night attack? Master Cheng, the enemy's ambushes are all over the Shuilong Pass, how can our army surprise the enemy with a limited army?" Jin Wang Shuijian suddenly asked suspiciously.

"Don't worry, we can dig tunnels in the city all the way to the enemy's camp, and then attack suddenly, the enemy must be unprepared." Cheng Rong shook the ledger in his hand and laughed loudly.

Sure enough, in response to Xi Rong's harassment, the Zhou army began to attack the Xi Rong cavalry with tunnels. The two sides continued to attack, which made Xi Rong unable to approach Shuilongguan.

"The emperor's decree, order our entire army to be in charge!" Meng Kui, who came to announce the decree, read out loudly.

"What's going on here? Why do we suddenly have to withdraw our troops when we are about to achieve great success? What about Shuilongguan?" The generals of the Zhou camp suddenly clamored.

"Marshal, you don't know yet, the emperor has signed a contract with Le Ge, the envoy of Xirong, and the two sides have temporarily ceased fighting!" Meng Kui explained with a smile.

"What? How is this possible, Xi Rong actually advocated forming an alliance with our dynasty?" An Tong, Ming Chao and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, greatly surprised.

"Master Meng, what's going on?" Que Tu immediately left Meng Kui alone and started to ask.

"Marshal Jutu, don't worry, the emperor thinks that Zhou Dongqian's vitality has not recovered. Now that Xirong has been taught a lesson, he should use it to blackmail Xirong. Isn't it better to spend the winter at Shuilongguan with a truce?" Meng Meng Kui Xiao Mimi gave Die Tu a wink.

In Luoyang, the capital city, Chuxiu was very happy with the conditions of Xirong since he entertained the envoys of Xirong.

"Your Majesty, Xirong is coveting my great Zhou country, how could it be possible that it just wants some hostages?" Prime Minister Zhou Ji said suspiciously.

"No, what Xirong wants is to welcome back the prince whom Xirong supported. Tell me, should we give it to him or kill him?" Chuxiu asked Zhou Ji with a very cryptic stare.

"Could it be that Bao En that the emperor is referring to?" Zhou Ji suddenly turned pale with shock.
