Chapter 43
The chaos in the northern border is not only a conflict between the Great Zhou and the Northern Mang, but now it also involves the game between Emperor Tiande and the King of Zhenbei.
Even many princes and officials in the court are looming, and no one knows how many knives are hidden in this place.
One hundred thousand Northern Mang troops set up camp outside Liangcheng, staring at Xiao Feng’s base camp.
And the other one hundred thousand Northern Mang troops have already divided their troops and killed out.
Do you, Xiao Feng, dare to rescue?
Liangcheng’s geographical location is very critical. Once Xiao Feng dares to divide his troops to rescue, the one hundred thousand Northern Mang troops will dare to attack the city. Once Liangcheng is broken, it will be completely over!
A road leads directly to Qianren Pass.
Moreover, the imperial court has clearly told Xiao Feng that there will be no other support. Xiao Feng can only rely on these 150,000 troops!
Of course, this matter is not without room for reversal.
As long as he can hold on until the end of the year, everything will be fine.
By then, these Beimang soldiers will be exhausted, and it will be icy and snowy, and logistics will be hopeless. That will be the weakest time for Beimang.
Moreover, they are defending, not attacking.
As long as the city is properly defended, 10,000 troops can also withstand a flood of 100,000.
But what Xiao Feng did not expect was that only the next day, there was news that the Beimang army had broken through a city. This news almost made Xiao Feng collapse.
One day, just one day, a city was broken?
Even if there were only thousands of guards in the city, it could not be so fragile. The tall city wall was like a prehistoric beast entrenched on the land.
It was broken just like that?
“What on earth happened!”
Xiao Feng’s eyes were full of ferocity. He couldn’t understand why such a situation had occurred.
Beside him, a deputy general had a serious expression on his face and told Xiao Feng the details.
This time, Beimang brought a large number of top masters, including a powerful Vajra Realm.
With strong troops and horses, they came with great momentum, and there were masters in charge.
It was not difficult to destroy a city in one day!
After hearing this, Xiao Feng seemed to have completely drained all his strength and sat down on the chair.
Naturally, there were top masters beside him, and he also happened to have a Vajra Realm by his side, but this was his last life-saving trump card, and he could never stand up.
“It’s over!”
Xiao Feng closed his eyes in despair.
On a real battlefield, the Vajra Realm could not be invincible. Being surrounded by thousands of troops, they could still drain his spiritual power and kill him to death.
However, if it is used to attack the city, especially the small county town where the captains are stationed, let alone the Vajra Realm, even if the Kaitian strongman comes, it will be like entering an empty place.
Xiao Feng can’t see any hope at all.
In front, 100,000 troops are sitting, staring at him covetously, so that the troops in Liangcheng dare not move at all.
And the remaining 100,000 troops of Beimang are like jackals, starting to break other weak cities one by one.
This is a dead end!
Unless Xiao Feng has more soldiers, or… a large number of strong men are available.
“By the way, find Yang Xiao!”
Xiao Feng stood up suddenly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
“You keep an eye on the city for me, there must not be any mistakes, I will go to find the King of Zhenbei and will be back soon!”
Xiao Feng said in a deep voice to the deputy general beside him.
Then, he left the back door of the city with a dozen followers and rushed towards Qianren Pass.
Zhenbei Palace
When Yang Xiao learned that Xiao Feng was at the door, his sword eyebrows slightly raised, and a playful sneer hung on the corner of his mouth: “Tsk tsk, it seems that our Zhennan General has encountered difficulties!”
A moment later, in the meeting room of Zhenbei Palace.
“General Xiao, the front line is tense, how come you have time to run to me?”
Yang Xiao pretended to be puzzled.
Without saying a word, Xiao Feng bowed directly when he saw Yang Xiao: “Please save me, Your Majesty!”
“Hey, what are you talking about, General Xiao? Why didn’t I understand? Come on, get up quickly.” Yang Xiao hurried forward and helped Xiao Feng up.
Xiao Feng looked bitter: “Your Majesty, now the 200,000 troops of Beimang are coming to kill us, please help me and save the people of the northern border.”
“General Xiao, this… Don’t dare to say it!”
Yang Xiao’s expression was slightly cold, and he sat on the big chair in front of the meeting room.
“Your Majesty has ordered that the 300,000 troops under my command cannot move without your Majesty’s order. Now the general is asking for my life!”
Xiao Feng was shocked and hurried to explain.
“That’s enough.
”
“General Xiao, the battle on the front line is urgent, you should go back quickly, otherwise, if something unexpected happens, it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty.”
Yang Xiao waved his hand and was about to get up and leave.
“Your Majesty!”
“I dare not ask Your Majesty to help. I came here just to ask Your Majesty to be a lobbyist!”
Xiao Feng hurriedly explained, fearing that Yang Xiao would leave.
Lobbyist?
Yang Xiao stopped and frowned: “General Xiao, what do you mean by this? Let me be a lobbyist?”
“Do you still expect me to go to the front line and persuade Beimang to withdraw the troops?”
There were clusters of cold light in Yang Xiao’s tiger eyes.
Let him, the King of Zhenbei, be a lobbyist?
You Xiao Feng is so shameless!
“No, no, no, Your Majesty misunderstood, how dare I! ”
“The Northern Mang army is coming fiercely, and there are many strong men in its army. They broke the city among the scattered troops. I have too few generals and it is difficult to resist.”
“So, I would like to ask the prince to come forward and persuade the strong men in the Northern Border to take action to temporarily solve the urgent problem!”
Xiao Feng looked at Yang Xiao with pleading.
This is the purpose of his trip.
There are only two ways to solve the disaster in the Northern Border.
First, more reinforcements will arrive and defend the city with an absolute advantage in numbers. In this way, even if the other side has strong men, it doesn’t matter.
The second is to ask the same strong men to take action and block these guys in the Northern Mang army one-on-one, which can naturally solve this problem.
But the key is that he doesn’t have them under his command!
He is a general of Zhennan, although Although he is a veteran, his majesty is very suspicious, and those who have been with him for a long time have been transferred away.
So he came to save the situation this time, and he brought a group of people with him in a hurry.
And there are many strong people in the North Border.
This is well-known throughout the Great Zhou. For example, the Vajra Temple in the North Border is one of the holy places in Buddhism. It is said that there are even wandering giants in the sect!
If these people can be invited to help, the danger of the North Mang can be solved.
“Ask the people in the martial arts world to help?”
“Sorry, I am not interested.”
“General Xiao is a senior official who commands hundreds of thousands of troops, and he is in charge of the North Border at this time. It is most appropriate for you to invite him.”
“Okay, I feel a little uncomfortable today, so I won’t accompany you. ”
Yang Xiao raised his sword-like eyebrows and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Let him invite people from the martial arts world to take charge of Xiao Feng?
This General Xiao really dares to think so!
Xiao Feng looked at Yang Xiao who was leaving, with a very complicated look in his eyes.
