Chapter 724 Fumeng Lingcha’s Warning (2)

Chapter 724 Humeng Lingcha’s Warning (2)

This matter was said by Li Siye himself, and he greatly praised them.

Wang Chong inspected it and felt that they were good, so this time the construction of the Iron City, the task of guarding and defending was entrusted to them. Both men have handled danger quite well so far.

"Boom!"

The horses were rumbling, and the smoke from the north was getting closer and closer. Everyone in the Iron City could feel the slight tremor. All the craftsmen had already hid in the city walls. The originally busy construction also stopped.

All around the city of steel, there was a sudden silence, except for the crowing of war horses approaching from the north.

The atmosphere was tense at this moment.

More than 100,000 pairs of eyes looked nervously at the silent and depressing black shadows in the billowing smoke. Only Wang Chong was riding astride the horse, looking at ease, neither humble nor overbearing, waiting silently.

"Buzz!"

When they got closer, the horses slowed down, billowing smoke and dust, and a huge battle flag, more than one foot high, was hoisted up. On the dragon-patterned battle flag on the black background is a golden rock eagle, the most common in the Western Regions, with sharp eyes, claws like hooks, and feathers like iron, as if it is about to break out of the battle flag.

It was the first time Wang Chong saw this kind of battle flag when he arrived in the Western Regions.

While Wang Chong was observing the battle flag, in the billowing smoke, there was also an extremely strong and tall figure riding a war horse, galloping out of the battle flag like a demon god.

At that moment, everyone could see clearly that the man was full of bushy mustaches, his face was black and blue, his eyes were like copper bells, and he was looking forward to them with a cold light, which made people daunting.

When that person appeared, a tidal wave of coercion followed. The entire city of steel, except for Wang Chong, also included Cheng Sanyuan and Su Shixuan who were behind him who were determined and experienced the test of the Southwest battlefield. , all lowered their heads, unexpectedly no one dared to look into his eyes.

"Wang Chong!"

At the moment when everyone bowed their heads, a wild voice that seemed to be whizzing like a sword, with a metallic trill, rang in everyone's ears in an instant.

Hearing this obviously hostile voice, Wang Chong suddenly laughed.

"Master Protector!"

Say these four words,

Wang Chong immediately patted his horse forward and greeted him without the slightest timidity. In the entire Tang Dynasty, in the entire Western Regions, there was only one person with such a unique voice, like the neighing of swords and swords.

"...I still can't hold back!"

Wang Chong laughed in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face.

Wushang was so close to the Qixi Protector's Mansion, all his actions could not be hidden from Fumeng Lingcha. But obviously, when the city of steel rose from the ground overnight, reaching a height of fifteen meters, and continued to increase rapidly, Fumeng Lingcha realized that he had miscalculated and could no longer sit still .

The crowing of war horses resounds everywhere!

Under the tense eyes of countless people, Wang Chong stepped forward immediately, billowing up a cloud of smoke and dust, and the distance between him and Fumeng Lingcha was getting closer and closer. In the distance, the well-known general guard also slowed down, and the billowing smoke and dust that permeated the sky gradually subsided, revealing a series of fortified, black armored elites who had obviously been battle-tested and killed. Soldiers come.

Under the scorching sun, all these black-armored knights walked in unison, neatly, as if they were one person. During the whole process, there was no mistake at all.

Even with Wang Chong's eyes, it was difficult to pick out any faults.

"That's right, immovable like a mountain, aggressive like a fire! In his early years, Fumeng Lingcha guarded Anxi, and he was really good at leading troops!"

Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.

Even if there was a gap between him and Fumeng Lingcha, Wang Chong had to admit that the great general of the empire in Qixi did have some advantages. Qixi has a special geography. To the west is the Uz-Tibet Plateau, which is undeadly ambitious and may invade east at any time. To the west is the Turkic cavalry led by the Western Turkic Shabola Khan. They can survive in this cracked area and keep the two major forces away. Outside, there is no doubt about Fumeng Lingcha's own strength.

With these immovable and aggressive Qixi iron cavalry in front of him, Fumeng Lingcha has indeed demonstrated his extraordinary ability as a general of the empire!

"It's a pity, the jealousy is too strong! The desire for power is too strong!"

In the blink of an eye, a thought flashed through his mind, and Wang Chong quickly returned to normal.

Fumeng Lingcha is indeed very powerful. If certain things are excluded, Wang Chong will even be happy that Datang has such a general, but it is a pity that Fumeng Lingcha is too selfish.

He himself is a barbarian, so he promoted barbarians wantonly in the barracks. Almost all the important general positions in the army are Hu people, and the Han people are in a state of being suppressed no matter whether they are talented or not.

Moreover, Fumeng Lingcha has signs of becoming a small imperial court of the Hu people in Qixi.

Otherwise, Jiedushi would not make him so furious if he wrote a memorial to himself.

Moreover, Qixi was more than defensive, but not aggressive enough. Fumeng Lingcha had been in charge for so many years, and he never took the initiative to attack. Qixi's situation has never changed during the many years he has been in town.

We can only passively wait for Uszang and Western Turks to attack.

Whether it is to change the upcoming Talas War, to reserve troops for Anxi, or to change the situation in Qixi of the empire, Wang Chong must find a way to remove Fumeng Lingcha, or transfer it to other places!

As long as Fumeng's spiritual awareness is there, he will never be able to use his hands and feet in the Western Regions. This must be changed.

The rumbling sound slowly stopped, the distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and the atmosphere became tighter and tighter. Finally, Wang Chong and Fumeng Lingcha, one young and one old, were only eight or nine feet away from each other, and the atmosphere collapsed to the extreme.

The two looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.

"Bold! Don't get off your horse and salute in front of Lord Protector!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from Xiisha. An Fumeng Lingcha's adjutant, fully armed, wearing a black belt, pointed at Wang Chong with a finger, and his voice was stern.

"This is trying to show me off!"

Wang Chong couldn't help but smile in his heart, his eyes just stared at Fumeng Lingcha in front of him. If it was the past, where the difference in official ranks between the two sides was, and Wang Chong had no official position, Fumeng Lingcha could really easily crush him to death.

However, at this moment, at that moment, at this moment, even in the face of this great general among the barbarians, the great general in the west of Qi, Wang Chong has no fear at all.

What's more, he is still the real "Marshal of Soldiers and Horses" in the world after all!

"Presumptuous! Our lord is a newly conferred juvenile marquis by the imperial court, and this title was bestowed by the emperor himself. He is a real prince of the Tang Dynasty, and his status is no lower than that of Lord Du Hu. Moreover, the title of Marquis Daqu was bestowed by the Holy Emperor himself, and he is the son of heaven." Disciple, His Majesty the Holy Emperor represented behind you, do you dare to ask Lord Hou to salute?!"

Sure enough, a scolding came from behind, and without Wang Chong's words, Cheng Sanyuan rode his horse forward, pointing at the Fumeng Lingcha's adjutant and sternly reprimanding him. Although they couldn't resist Fumeng Lingcha's coercion and gaze of the imperial general level, they were definitely not inferior to just dealing with the adjutants around him.

Wang Chong sat upright and didn't move immediately, and nodded slightly in his heart.

Cheng Sanyuan and Su Shixuan's reactions were really fast. In this case, it is indeed much better for them to come forward than themselves. This is why Wang Chong valued them.

"Master Duhu, you are being polite. I didn't know that Mr. Duhu was coming. I was too far away to greet you. I was rude. I didn't know that my lord was coming. What's your business?"

Sitting on the horse, Wang Chong raised his hands and said suddenly.

Those words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The entire vicinity of Iron City was quiet, and when the generals of both sides spoke, even Cheng Sanyuan and the Fumeng Lingcha kept their mouths shut. Everyone knows that today's protagonists are the two in front of them.

The next conversation between the two, and every word they spit out, is likely to be related to the future of Steel City and Qixi as a whole. At this time, no one dared to intervene.

Fumeng Lingcha didn't speak, his falcon-like eyes were extremely deep, turning slowly, looking up and down at Wang Chong like a falcon staring at its prey.

Although in the Jiedushi incident, the two sides were almost sworn enemies. Fumeng Lingcha was also the first to write a letter asking the Holy Emperor to kill Wang Chong. But in reality, this was the first time Fumeng Lingcha had seen this "culprit".

Even though he was full of hostility towards the Wang family's young family, Fumeng Lingcha had to admit that this kid was completely different from what he had imagined.

young!

It is too young! It looks like he is only sixteen or seventeen years old!

At such an age, even a proud man like Fumeng Lingcha was still struggling in the Western Regions, but Wang Chong had already become a young marquis of the Tang Dynasty, was bestowed by the emperor, and was a high-ranking official.

If Wang Chong only relied on his prominent family background, it would be fine to rely on the shadow of the Wang family's "Former Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty". However, not long ago, he personally led the team to defeat such names as Huoshu Guizang, Daqin Ruozan and Duan Gequan.

Fumeng Ling noticed that he was still skeptical, but there was some truth in it.

However, the coalition forces of Uzang and Meng Shezhao were defeated only after Wang Chong joined, and they also lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, including a large number of cavalry. The loss was far greater than that of Tang Dynasty. This is also an indisputable fact.

It is absolutely impossible for Fumeng Lingcha to have such ability at the age of sixteen or seventeen. Even if you start practicing the art of war in the womb, it is absolutely impossible.

The art of war is not just a matter of reading a few military books, it needs to be fought in the war and experienced countless actual combats. All the great generals are like this.

However, this is not the only thing that Fumeng Lingcha is uncertain about.

A soldier and a horse spent half his life in battle, and Fumeng Lingcha killed countless opponents on the battlefield. Because of this reason, he has a very strong evil spirit, even the soldiers around him often don't dare to approach easily, let alone look into his eyes.

In the Western Regions, there was once a saying:

A well-known murderer in the Western Regions has been on the run for decades, but no one has been able to catch him. As a result, when he was in Qixi, he bumped into Fumeng Lingcha's car by accident, and he just gave him a stare. In the end, he was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder burst, he became incontinent, and died suddenly.

This is the evil spirit of Fumeng Lingcha.

It was even rumored that when Uzang's ferocious cavalry attacked Qixi, Fumeng Lingcha stared at him to death on the battlefield.
