Seventh Miss: Across the World: Feng Dominates the Sky

Chapter 499 The Great War Begins 2
"Report to my lord, a hundred miles away from the mountain, dust is everywhere, yellow sand covers the sky, a large group of people has come, I don't know who it is, I will send someone to inquire, I believe I will reply soon."

When Murong Qingshui heard this news, he was startled: "Are you sure it's not the wind and sand, but the dust raised by people and horses?"

"I can be sure, I can hear it clearly when I lay down on the ground, but the sound of horseshoes is deafening from a distance of hundreds of miles. I am sure that the large group of people and horses were not caused by wind and sand."

"What kind of soldiers are here? No country has come down to fight." Murong Qingshui murmured in his heart.

While Murong Qingshui was thinking, there was a sudden commotion outside the camp.

"Go out immediately and see what's going on." Murong Qingshui said to the captain.

"Yes" the captain took the order and walked outside the big tent
Before the captain walked out of the big tent, two soldiers dragged and helped a soldier covered in blood and quickly walked into the big tent.

When he came to the big tent, the man couldn't hold on any longer, and with a 'plop', he lay down in the big tent, raised his head with all his strength and said, "My lord, Houtu Kingdom appointed Sator as the general, commanding 20 soldiers Ten thousand crimes."

After saying this, the man vomited blood and died.

The school lieutenant saw that this person was the school boy he had sent out to spy on the news.He was shot several times with arrows on his back, which shows that he insisted on returning to the camp after enduring the pain.

As soon as Murong Qingshui heard that the army of the Houtu Kingdom was coming, he immediately stood up, took out a sergeant from the tent of command arrows, and said: "Take my command arrows, remember, horses must not stop kicking, and people must not rest. Send this news back quickly Inwardly, order the army to come to support, and notify the state capitals along the way to prepare troops to stand by."

"Yes" the sergeant picked up the command arrow and walked out of the big tent, stepped on his horse and ran towards the capital of the Tianshui Dynasty at high speed.

When the sergeant walked out of the big tent, Murong Qiushui picked up the arrow and shouted loudly: "Where is Li Ming?"

"Subordinates are here" Following the voice, a young general in silver armor and silver armor flashed out from the side of the big tent.

Murong Qingshui handed over the command arrow to this person and said: "You lead your troops and set up camp on the bank of Tianshui River to stop the enemy army, remember that you are invincible, you only need to shoot the enemy army halfway across the river with your bow and crossbow. Once the enemy crosses the river, don't relish fighting, and retreat quickly."

"Yes" Li Ming ordered him to walk out of the big tent.

"The rest of the troops set up camp quickly and retreated to Lushui Town to defend against foreign enemies."

"Yes" all the generals in the tent shouted in unison.

Thirty miles away from Lushui Town is the Tianshui River. This big river flows here from the melting snow on the peaks of the Tianshan Mountains upstream.

Li Ming hid his men and horses in the dense forest by the river, waiting for the army of the Houtu Kingdom to arrive.

The army of the Houtu Kingdom is led by the vassal king Wusha with [-] troops as the vanguard.

Early the next morning, Wusha led his troops to the Tianshui River.

At this time, Li Ming had already prepared his men and horses, and equipped them with strong bows and crossbows, as well as a lot of rockets, which were used to burn down the ferry boats used by the enemy to cross the river.

　The people in Lushui Town did not rely on the Tianshui River as their basis of survival, so there were only a few dozen ferry boats for the townspeople to fish and carry goods on weekdays.

At this time, it had already been taken back to the other side by Li Ming.

A bridge not far away had already been destroyed when Murong Qingshui retreated.

Therefore, when the forward Usha arrived, there was neither bridge nor boat to cross.

So I had to order the army to cut down trees and tie them into rafts for the army to cross the river.

Twenty thousand horses cut down the dense forest near the river bank and built rafts one by one.

Wusha looked at the other side, and no one camped, so he ordered the army to cross the river.
