From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 285

"I underestimated Long Chengen. The empress gave Long Chengen the best bow and crossbow, but I didn't find out clearly. I didn't blame you for today's defeat."

The power of the bed crossbow was too terrifying, Jing Tianlie saw with his own eyes that the armor of the heavy cavalry was penetrated.

If it was an infantry charge, the bed crossbow might be able to kill several infantry with a single shot.

There is also the Divine Arm Bow, which is also a weapon that Jing Tianlie has never seen before. It has a long range and strong armor-piercing ability, and it can penetrate the armor of heavy cavalry at close range.

With these two weapons, the slow-moving heavy cavalry became a target.

Jing Tianlie blamed himself, Lu Gan and his gang shut up and stopped arguing.

The atmosphere in the main hall was solemn again, the most elite army was wiped out, and morale was extremely low.

"Everyone is tired, go down and rest, organize the army, and fight again tomorrow."

Jing Tianlie got up and glanced at Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin followed into the backyard.

After arriving in the room, Jing Tianlie said in a solemn tone: "I'm afraid this battle will not end well, I must think of a way out."

Jiang Lin showed pain on his face, and lamented: "General, things are still possible, why bother to destroy your own prestige..."

In fact, Jiang Lin also felt that Long Chen was scheming and extremely difficult to deal with.

I hope that the Red Flame Army can crush the newly-built Long Family Army, but today's battle made Jiang Lin completely lose his mind. Although the Long Family Army has just been formed, it is armed with sophisticated weapons and has a strong combat effectiveness.

In particular, Long Chen's command was just right, and the coordination of each arm was very tacit.

"You have been with me for 31 years..."

Jing Tianlie sighed, and continued: "Go to Xixia yourself and tell the king of Xixia that Long Cheng'en will surely become a major disaster for the world. If you don't help me, Xixia will also be threatened."

"Also, tell him that Long Chengen is Long Chen! Xixia killed his father and brother, and Long Chengen will definitely take revenge."

Jiang Lin was taken aback, and asked: "General, how do you know that Long Chengen is Long Chen?"

Jing Tianlie clicked his tongue and said, "Just do what you want, don't ask why."

Jiang Lin understood, Jing Tianlie didn't know at all, he was talking nonsense just to get Xixia to send troops.

Jiang Lin said: "The general understands, but the enemy is at hand, if I leave..."

He is really loyal to Jing Tianlie and doesn't want to leave at this time.

Jing Tianlie patted Jiang Lin's shoulder, and said earnestly, "I sent you because the enemy is at hand. I can't trust others."

"The only hope now is Xixia sending troops. If Xixia doesn't help, we... have no way to retreat."

To the west of Jade Buddha Pass is Xixia, and to the south is Nanliang. If you don't go west, go south.

Nanliang absolutely can't go, Long Chen used tricks to kill the three of Li Chengtong, Li Chengdao hated Jing Tianlie to death.

The only way out is Xixia, which is their last hope.

"General..."

Jiang Lin felt an indescribable sadness in his heart.

"Don't be discouraged, the ups and downs are coming, what are you afraid of! When you leave, take Feng'er and take good care of him."

"If Xixia refuses to send troops, I beg Xixia to take Feng'er in and tell them that I, Jing Tianlie, beg them!"

Jing Tianlie was extremely arrogant by nature, and this time he actually said to beg Xixia, which shows how desperate he is.

"General..."

Jiang Lin almost cried.

Jing Tianlie patted Jiang Lin's shoulder heavily and said, "Let's go now!"

Jiang Lin nodded, left the room, immediately secretly summoned cavalry, quietly drove a carriage, left the Jade Buddha Pass West Gate, and rushed to the Xixia Palace overnight.

After Jiang Lin left, Jing Tianlie walked up to the west gate of the city wall, looked at the Jade Buddha in the west, and sighed: "Thinking that I, the hero Jing Tianlie I, was forced into such a situation by an eunuch today, it is ridiculous..."

Sighing and laughing for a long time, Jing Tianlie's eyes gradually became determined.

"It's just a eunuch, it's still unknown who will die!"

Jing Tianlie turned around and went down the city wall.

...

Customs.

Long Chen looked at Bai Tingting who hadn't woken up, and got up to Wu Jian's tent.

"Uncle Wu, you choose some trustworthy Xiaoqi guards and send Tingting to the rear."

Wu Jian asked: "The Major General is worried that Jing Tianlie will attack and rob the camp?"

Long Chen said: "This is the frontline position, in case of melee, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it."

Wu Jian nodded and said: "Alright, girl Tingting is here, the major general is easily distracted, I will do it right away."

After choosing the Xiaoqi guards, Long Chen personally carried Bai Tingting into the carriage and sent them out of the barracks.

Long Chen told Xiaoqi's guards to go to Xifeng Town to find the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn. If the battle fails, it will not be a problem that the world will keep Bai Tingting.

As the sky was getting dark, Long Chen ordered all camps to step up patrols to prevent Jing Tianlie from counterattacking.

Long Chen was wearing green dragon armor, carrying a long spear, and personally patrolling on horseback.

The more victorious you are, the more vigilant you must be.

...

within the customs.

Jing Tianlie is calling the generals to discuss the night attack.

"Yang Zhi, you lead [-] infantry to attack from the north, and set fire to the Long Family Army camp when you arrive."

A general with a round body bowed: "The last general takes orders!"

"Xu Sheng, you bring [-] spearmen to enter from the south."

A general of medium stature bowed: "The last general takes orders!"

"Li Yu, take [-] cavalry around and attack from the east."

A general with thick legs said: "The last general takes orders!"

Jing Tianlie said to Chen Yuxin again: "Follow me and kill from the east gate."

Chen Yuxin bowed: "The last general takes orders."

The other generals gave orders one by one, and each had a task.

Lu Gan sat beside him and asked, "General, what about me?"

Jing Tianlie glanced at Lu Gan's leg, and said, "You are guarding inside the pass."

Lu Gan sighed helplessly, he could fight again if his hand was injured, but if his leg was injured, he would be useless.

The generals left the commander's mansion under the leadership of Jing Tianlie, and the soldiers were ready.

The dark clouds in the sky avoid the moon, the cold wind is blowing, the dust is everywhere, and there is chaos between the sky and the earth.

Jing Tianlie got on his horse and gathered in front of the east gate, followed by Chen Yuxin.

Just when Jing Tianlie was about to open the door, dozens of fireballs suddenly rose from the sky.

Facing the cold wind, the fireball made a whining sound. The fireball dragged its flame tail, carrying black smoke, and passed over the head...

Jing Tianlie was taken aback, and shouted: "Night attack! Defend!"

boom!

The first fireball landed, and the viscous coal tar exploded and splashed. The tents and houses touched by it immediately burned, and the soldiers touched by them immediately caught fire.

woohoo...

Fireballs kept rising and falling heavily, and the pass quickly became a sea of ​​flames.

"What's going on? Didn't we attack at night? How did you become attacked at night?"

"Defense, defend!"

The soldiers of the Red Flame Army were stunned.

Just received the order to go out of the city for a night raid, and finally Long Chen's night raid arrived.

Outside the city, Long Chen looked up at the kerosene jar thrown over, and said with a sneer, "If you want to attack at night, I will do it first!"

When Jing Tianlie summoned the generals to conspire, Feng He got the news, Long Chen counted the time, waited for Jing Tianlie to assemble the troops, and immediately threw the kerosene cans outside the city.

When the soldiers are assembled, the crowd density is the highest. At this time, the use of kerosene cans works best.

"My lord, I think it's almost there."

Wu Jian came down from the general platform, and he could clearly see the situation in the city from above.

Long Chen nodded and said: "Light it up!"

Wu Jian lit a fire on Gaogang, which was a signal to attack.

I can't see the flag clearly at night, so I can only use fire to command and order.

Dugu Jiali, Zhang Qian, Wu Chuchu, and Wu Xiangyun saw the Gaogang fire burning and immediately ordered an attack.

20 troops launched an attack at the same time.
