It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 938

Maybe even Li Xingzai didn't expect that what he did would have a miraculous effect on the battlefield.

After the Rong tribe occupied Chang'an, they continued to expand to the Central Plains. The various princes of the Central Plains are also called strong soldiers and strong horses, but they fled when they saw the Rong, and they collapsed when they saw the Rong. In the end, either they huddled in the city and stood firm, or they opened the door and surrendered as soon as the Rong tribe came over.

It is only because of this that the Rong family can sweep the Central Plains princes and unify the northern land within a year.

But if you continue to compete with such an opponent, your strength will inevitably be lowered. At least it will develop a fixed combat rhythm, thinking that the imperial army will always shrink in the city, waiting for the army to attack the city.

But there is another Li Xingzai in the empire. His life is remarkable, he has been a prince, a beggar, and even a bandit, and finally struggled to break out of a foundation.

What he's best at is playing cards out of line.

10,000 people were divided into two groups, and they swept the northern land, specifically picking the weaker Rong tribe to attack. Cut off the grain road, burn the granary, and exterminate the small army of the Rong tribe.

As expected by Li Xingzai, the people of the north have been suffering for a long time. The Rong clan attacked the city and expanded the army to 500,000 in a period of time, but the imperial army who surrendered may not be the Rong clan lackey sincerely.

Li Xingzai was the real bloodline of the Li family, and his banner was to regain lost territory and expel the Rong family.

After round after round of fierce battles, the number of 10,000 people who left the city has increased unabated, and now it has expanded to 50,000.

And this is just the beginning, the people of the North are thinking, if Li Xingzai can have another great victory, they will definitely get together to respond.

The strategy set by Li Xingzai in Yangzhou City has achieved initial results. As for whether it can be effective forever, it depends on his next move.

But now that Ye Yuan Huo had arrived in Xuzhou, he had a headache over what Li Xingzai had done.

His subordinates made plans one after another, sending heavy troops to sweep the northern land and wipe out Li Xingzai's team.

In the face of the unanimous opinions of his subordinates, Ye Yuanhuo simply and neatly refused.

"The war must have its own rhythm, and it cannot follow the enemy's rhythm, otherwise it will be led by the enemy's nose and our army will be defeated." Ye Yuanhuo sat in the tent: "Li Xingzai's foundation is in Luofeng City, and he needs to arrive from time to time. Luofeng City will be supplemented with food and grass. Once our army occupies Luofeng City, his team will be nothing more than a group of stragglers, and it will not be a problem. Therefore, our army does not need to be disturbed by Li Xingzai's invasion and continues to march towards Luofeng City."

Nohara Huo continued talking, making everyone shut their mouths. But in the final analysis, the meaning of his words is exactly the same as Li Xingzai: you hit you, I hit me.

The two armies faced off against each other, and this was a battle that would set the world. The total number of troops dispatched by both sides exceeded one million. But it didn't have the imagined king's attitude, and it was no different from the gangsters fighting in the street.

You cut off my arm, I cut off your thigh, you blind one of my eyes, and I cut off one of your ears. Both sides are fighting to the death, let's see which one can't bear the pain first, which one cowards first, and the other who wins.

Li Xingzai maintained his own combat rhythm, regardless of what Nohara Fire did. Ye Yuanhuo did the same, and concentrated on gathering troops to Luofeng City, intending to attack Luofeng City first, and then turn around to clean up Li Xingzai's troops.

The two sides fought each other, and until now, Li Xingzai and Ye Yuanhuo have not really fought.

But the secret battle has already begun.

When destroying the enemy's small units, Li Xingzai was also secretly planning his big move.

He quietly merged with the team led by Hua Mulan, and the total number of troops on both sides has now reached 50,000.

Now, Li Xingzai is no longer satisfied with petty troubles, he has a bigger appetite. His next target is Pengcheng.

Pengcheng was subordinate to Xuzhou, and was conquered by the Rong clan not long ago, and now it is under the rule of the Rong clan.

When the army assembled, Li Xingzai quietly marched towards Pengcheng, and then launched a siege battle.

The Rong tribe has the strength to conquer the world, and they have proved this through countless battles. However, the Rong family may not have the ability to rule the world, which has not been proved by anyone so far.

Now, Li Xingzai is here to prove it.

The Rong tribe attacked the city all the way, and it was like a broken bamboo. However, they were neither careful to manage the cities they had laid down, nor were they worried about putting heavy troops on the defense.

If you are used to fighting generals, you will naturally be transferred to the front line to fight tough battles. The people left behind in the city are mostly the kind of people whose grandma doesn't love grandma.

Under Li Xingzai's order, 50,000 horses launched a deadly battle against Pengcheng. Within an hour, the vanguard troops had already reached the top of the city, and in two hours, the northern city gate was broken open, and then the army poured in, and all the soldiers in the city were slaughtered.

In one day, the battle is over.

This battle greatly boosted the morale of the Jiangnan Army. The Rong people were not invincible. As long as they were hurt, they would still hold their heads and run away.

The shock of this battle to Li Xingzai was huge. The Rong family might not be as strong as they looked. As long as you give yourself a chance, it is not impossible to recover the lost territory of the empire in the future.

What was missing was a complete victory.

After the attack on Pengcheng, Li Xingzai did not station troops here. The key is that if the Rong clan fought back, he would not be able to defend, so he simply abandoned the city and left.

Just before leaving, Li Xingzai chopped off the heads of the captured Rong people and placed them at the top of the city one by one.

The scorching sun was scorching hot, and the blood turned black and brown, like a ghost in the world, making people afraid to approach.

But for the people of the empire, this is a very pleasing color. Through this battle, Li Xingzai's reputation came. Everyone knows that there is Li Xingzai in the south of the Yangtze River, the sixth prince of the Ming Emperor.

The people who were miserable under the rule of the Rong tribe finally had hope in their hearts. If they can beat the Rong people away, they don't mind doing their bit.

When Ye Yuanhuo received the battle report and sent a large army to support Pengcheng, all he saw was the dry heads, and Li Xingzai had already escaped without a trace.

For this scene, Ye Yuanhuo was naturally furious, but he did not change the rhythm of the battle because of his anger. Still stepping up the march to Luofeng City, he was mad at him, as long as he fell to Luofeng City, Li Xingzai's arrogance would come to an end.

At this time, Li Xingzai had already led his army back to Luofeng City.

He also knew in his heart that Luofeng City would never be lost. Once Luofeng City fell into the hands of the Rong clan, he would truly become a lonely man. When was killed by the Rong clan, it was only a matter of time in the end.

If someone wants your ear, you can stab him in the eye. But if the enemy wants your head, you have to stand back and defend.

After tossing around in the north, Li Xingzai changed his strategy and chose to stick to the city. In the end, he still fell into the rhythm of the enemy's battle.

Luofeng City was originally a small city, but now its status has become more important. The outcome of this battle may determine the final outcome.
