The whole capital thinks I'm a lone star

Chapter 426 Confronting Qixia Ridge

Since ancient times, wars will inevitably flow like rivers of blood, and the army of Great Chu, except for the heavy losses and bloodshed when they took Lingzhou City, everything else is fine.

No one expected this.

Prince's Mansion, the imperial capital of Xiling.

Jun Ziyu held the battle report, his face livid.

"When will Zhao Ji arrive at the border? If this continues, before he arrives, Da Chu will call."

Jun Ziyu has the same face as Jun Tianmo, but their temperaments are quite different, he gets angry in a hurry, but Jun Tianmo is still in the mood to drink tea.

It can be seen that when he usually pretends to be Jun Tianmo, he has worked so hard.

"Brother, what do you think, why don't you let me go to the border?"

Jun Tianmo poured a cup of tea and put it in his hand, "Don't worry, they won't be able to cross Qixia Ridge."

Qixia Ridge has a very nice name. It is a very beautiful place. Whenever the sun sets, the sky will be covered with fire clouds, and there will be large areas of fiery red, blazing and thick.

However, such a seemingly beautiful and gentle place is the natural moat of Xiling. The river flows down Qixia Ridge, and the two sides are connected by wooden bridges and iron cables. This is the only way through Qixia Ridge.

Come to Qixia Ridge, Yimapingchuan.

Zhao Ji's soldiers and horses have already arrived at Qixia Ridge, waiting for the rabbit.

Qixia Ridge is not the only way from the border to Xilinghuang, but if you take other roads, it will take at least a month longer.

During this period of time, if the Northern Wei Dynasty was invincible, then the Xiling Emperor would basically have nothing to do with Da Chu, so Da Chu's army would not let go of the shortcut of Qixia Ridge.

Of course, Zhao Ji didn't think that the Northern Wei Dynasty would be invincible, he was just analyzing the battle situation.

Sure enough, two days later in the evening, the 20 Chu army led by Rong Jin and the 30 Xiling army led by Zhao Ji were on both sides of Qixia Ridge, facing each other across the canyon and the river.

Zhao Ji has been waiting for a long time. If the Chu army dares to climb the bridge and climb the iron chain, the archers on his side will have live targets.

He is confident that the Chu army will not be able to cross Qixia Ridge.

As long as Qixia Ridge is guarded, the hinterland of Xiling will be safe. As for the lost border cities, they will recover sooner or later when they recover.

The young general sat high on the horse, wearing the silver armor of General Xiling, looking majestic and cold.

Rong Jin glanced at the person opposite, and ordered, "The whole army retreats ten li and set up camp."

He wasn't wearing armor, he was still dressed in black, and he looked at the opposite side with playful eyes.

Huge clouds of fire gathered above his head, and his handsome face was full of provocations.

Zhao Ji took out his bow and arrow and aimed at the person opposite.

Rong Jin saw his movements, did not draw his sword, did not dodge, such indifference obviously did not take people seriously.

whoosh-

The sharp arrow came with the sound of piercing through the air.

A short whip suddenly appeared in Rong Jin's hand, the short whip wrapped around the arrow, and changed direction.

Wherever the arrow came from, let him go back there.

This series of actions happened in the blink of an eye, Zhao Ji only had time to avoid it, and the arrow clusters drew bloodstains on his face.

"General, are you alright?"

The lieutenant stepped forward and looked worriedly at Zhao Ji's face.

Zhao Ji raised his hand and wiped his face, his eyes were still on the person opposite, "It's okay, strengthen your precautions, we must not let any soldiers of Great Chu pass through Qixia Ridge."

"Yes."

With a sneer on his face, Rong Jin turned back to the camp.

Wei Zhao held a letter from the alliance in his hand, and when he saw him coming, he folded the letter and put it away.
