Chapter 1476 781 Gauntlets

Puli City is a big city in the southeast of Xiye. More than two years ago, it was called Puli Country. Two years ago in mid-September, the Kingdom of Puri was captured by a large army led by the Bavin tribe, one of the twelve tribes of Xiye.

Although this city of Puri is prosperous, it is located in the dry southeast. Since the earth dragon turned over more than 20 years ago, the only nearby water source, the Puri River, has been cut off, and the downstream has dried up. Since then, the city of Puri has no water source. , Every few days, the city will send a water team to the upper reaches of the Puri River to fetch water for the daily drinking of the people in the city.

Once there is no water source, even if they can't capture Privy City for a while, the other party is not destined to last for a few days.

But that's just in case.

President Wei Qian, who came to report, and the soldiers nearby all stared at Xiao Yi with piercing eyes, showing anticipation.

Xiao Yi didn't hide these things from Yuan Lingbai, Yuan Lingbai also understood the reason, a pair of clear eyes shone brightly, showing the same expectations as everyone else.

Xiao Yi raised his hand directly, and gave a sonorous command: "Go! Follow this prince to attack the city!"

"Yes, Lord Shizi!" President Wei Qian and the soldiers clasped their fists and responded in unison.

Yuan Lingbai also made the same action, and his eyes brightened. He knew that hanging out with the big brother was fun!

When the soldiers responded, their hearts were beating like drums and their blood was boiling.

When the earth-shattering snare drums sounded, the soldiers lurking in the gully jumped out of it, and trained quickly to form a phalanx, embroidered with the word "Xiao" in silver. The black flags fluttered in the wind, screeching loudly.

"Set off!"

Xiao Yi, who was straddling the dark clouds and stepping on the snow, gave an order, and tens of thousands of soldiers responded in unison.

The soldiers were all in high spirits.

The hoofs of the dark clouds and the snow rushed out first, followed by the sound of the hooves of the cavalry, and the footsteps of the infantry, followed by a rumble, one by one rushing forward with their heads held high and their hearts full of pride.

The place where they were located was only five or six miles away from the city of Puri, and with just a cup of tea, the army rushed outside the city of Puri as if no one had ever been there.

At this time, it was the third watch. It was pitch black all around, and the entire city of Puri was sleeping peacefully. The attack of tens of thousands of soldiers from the southern border completely caught them off guard.

The Xiye guards guarding the city gate blew the horn nervously, and then sent someone to the garrison to inform the general.

In an instant, the whole city boiled like boiling water.

Thousands of Xiye soldiers guarding the city woke up from their sleep and quickly gathered in the direction of the city gate, but it was too late.

The sound of hitting the city pillar and hitting the city gate resounded in the world, "Boom! Boom..."

Every sound was like a dull thunder in the sky, resounding in everyone's ears.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The sound of hitting the city is getting more and more dense and louder, like the heartbeat of everyone, but the mentality of the people in the city and the people outside the city are completely different.

The blood of the people outside the city is surging, as if they have doubled their strength, while the people inside the city are getting more and more panicked...

"Boom!"

In a crash that seemed to rush into the sky, a chilling scream followed with the rumbling sound of the door—

"The gates are open!"

What followed was the fierce fighting sound: "Kill it!"

Swords, lights, swords and shadows staggered, shouting and screaming one after another, the strong smell of blood and the breath of death permeated the city...

The soldiers of the Southern Border Army, who poured into the city of Puri like a long dragon, entered the city and shouted:

"The descendants do not kill!"

"People don't kill!"

"Don't kill those who donate the city!"

"..."

Tens of thousands of soldiers from the Southern Border Army charged into the battle like a flood, and those Xiye guards, who had not yet assembled, were completely defeated...

The sound of weapons falling is incessant. At first, they fell from the hands of corpses, and then from the hands of the living... When the first Xiye guard put down his weapon and knelt on the ground, more and more Xiye soldiers lost their intention to kill. , knelt down, just for that sentence "the one who descends will not be killed".

The big picture is set!

As for the people in the city, they were all uneasy and kept their doors closed. When they found out that the attacking enemy had no intention of entering the house, burning, killing, and looting, they turned a deaf ear like a dead man.

Anyway, the people who died outside were Xiye people, so what did they have to do with their Puli people!

Speaking of which, it is better that the general who led the siege of the city today has a benevolent heart, rather than the city of Puri being occupied by these murderous Xiye people...

That night, both the enemy and the people in this city stayed up all night.

When the day lit up again, the rising sun in the east was rising, and the city was filled with a thick smell of blood. Those people looked out through the crack of the door and saw a black flag flying on the city wall above the city gate. So wanton.

That silver embroidered character shone in the sun of the rising sun. The Puli people in the city didn't know this word, but they knew that it wasn't the Punuo script used by the Puli people, nor was it the Western Night script... This word seems to have a kind of magical power. Like, attracting the attention of everyone in the city.

Not only those civilians, the Southern Border Army who attacked the city, but also those prisoners of Xiye were all looking up at this flag.

"boom!"

A man in his 40s with a horned beard with his wrists tied behind him was pushed and staggered by the person behind him, and then he knelt down on the cold, hard, rough gravel ground in embarrassment.

He forced himself to look calmly at the young man in front of him who was dressed in silver armor and described as Li Li. His heart was cold, and he knew that this time he was going to be buried here.

"Master Shizi, this person is Wenxili, the patriarch of the Bawen clan, and he will be captured alive after chasing him out of the North City Gate for ten miles."

This is Dayu dialect, is this person Dayu's son-in-law? ! But how could Dayu's son-in-law lead his troops to appear in the city of Puri? ! Thinking of the war in Western Xinjiang, Wenxili was in shock, but he is now a prisoner, so what's the point of worrying about this!

Wen Xili gritted his back molars, and said slowly with blunt words: "Win the king or lose the bandit, if you want to kill or cut, please do it yourself."

He stared gloomily at the handsome young man in front of him, his turbid eyes released a strong unwillingness, and he swore almost word by word: "However, wait, you dare to offend me Xiye, my king. He will definitely avenge me!"

The handsome young man who did not look like a man showed a bright smile, and said casually in his tone: "Unfortunately, this prince does not intend to kill you."

Wen Xili's heart sank, and he couldn't help but speculate on the deep meaning of the other party's words. Does he not want to give himself a break, intending to use torture to humiliate himself to death? !

At this moment, a handsome young man ran over with a smile, holding a scarlet post and said triumphantly to Xiao Yi: "Brother, the battle book has been prepared according to your intention! You can take a look!"

Xiao Yi glanced at the war book casually, took out a small golden seal and stamped it, and then looked at Wen Xili, who was kneeling on the ground again, with a smile on his face, raised his hand and said, "Come here. People, send this son's gauntlet and this 'great gift' to the Western Night King!"

This "gift" refers of course to Wenxili.

"Yes, Lord Shi." A young soldier answered the command, and the soldiers all around looked towards this side, all of them were full of enthusiasm and high spirits, with a common belief burning in their hearts: as long as you follow the Lord, this side embroidered with "Xiao Xiao" "The flag of the word will fly in every corner of the western night!

On the other hand, Wenxili was terrified and his eyes were ashen. He just thought that the other party was going to give his head to the king for demonstration... But he didn't expect that he would leave Prie City "alive" under the escort of four soldiers. To Zihan City, twenty miles away, he was still alive.

In the end, the four who escorted him resolutely walked away without any hesitation, and only he and the war book were left standing alone outside the gate of Zihan City.

With the rumbling sound of opening the city gate, Wen Xili opened the gauntlet with trembling hands, and still can't believe that he survived.

This Shizi is crazy, right? He just let him go so easily? !

Does the other party feel that he is insignificant in the Western Night Army, and that his existence will not affect the battle situation at all? !

Wenxili stared at the seal on the bottom of the battle book, his eyes dark like a bottomless hell.

The Prince of Zhennan!

These five words were imprinted in Wen Xili's heart.

He will definitely make this person regret his contempt for him! He will definitely come back for revenge!

Wen Xili swore in his heart.

After entering the city, Wenxili left the north gate at the other end with the war book, and rushed to the capital of Xiye night and day, and joined the palace to meet the King of Xiye.

In the study room of the palace, while listening to Wenxili's report, King Xiye looked at the war book in his hand, his pupils shrank, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Yi?!"

Xiao Yi, the son of the Southern Prince of Dayu Town, led the Southern Border Army to attack from the southeastern border of Xiye, and he was caught off guard by Xiye.

The Night King of the West never thought that Xiao Yi, who only knew his name, would appear on his bookcase in such a form. Every word in the war book shocked him!

hateful! This Xiao Yi dared to provoke himself like this, and claimed that he wanted to take him Xi Ye, what a big tone!

The West Night King's hand holding the battle book unconsciously exerted a little force, two clusters of flames burned in his eyes, and his thoughts turned quickly.

Could it be that Emperor Dayu pretended to negotiate with Xiye on the surface, but secretly ordered Xiao Yi to bite him Xiye in the back?

No, not possible!

The West Night King immediately rejected it in his heart.

As early as after the battle between Dayu and Xiye more than five years ago, he had already seen through the conduct of today's Dayu Emperor. This Dayu Emperor did not have the courage of his father, was weak and useless, that is, had a good life. I just sat in the position of Emperor Dayu.

So, it was Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, who had a bad heart with their Xiye, so he acted without permission behind Emperor Dayu's back, and took advantage of Xiye to fight against the Western Border, and wanted to enter from another direction? !

They have an old saying in Da Yu: "greed is not enough to swallow an elephant", this Xiao Yi really dares to think!

Thinking about it, a gleam flashed in the sharp eyes of the West Night King.

He had long heard that Xiao Yi, the son of the Zhennan prince of Dayu, was belligerent and savage, but he did not expect this man to be so daring.

However, what he couldn't understand was how did Xiao Yi go around to attack Xiye in that direction?

Borrow?

how is this possible? !

From the southern border of Dayu to the southeastern border of Xiye, there are more than one or two countries to pass through. How could Xiao Yi do it?

...

Questions emerged one after another in the West Night King's heart, causing him to be puzzled while gnashing his teeth.

The more he thought about it, the more irritable the King of Xiye became. He had just received the news of the success of the plan from Tahai a few days ago, so he immediately dispatched troops to the western border of Dayu to reinforce Tahai, but he did not expect that the rear of his Xiye was on fire. ...

At this time, Wen Xili clasped his fists eagerly and said, "Your Majesty, that Xiao Yi doesn't know whether to live or die, and he committed a crime against me at the Western Night Frontier. Please, Your Majesty, give the Commander a chance to atone for his crimes..." This time, he will definitely give Xiao Yi a chance to atone for his crimes. Yi and his Southern Border Army killed a piece of armor without leaving behind.

The West Night King squinted, and for a while, he didn't speak.

Following that, a middle-aged general in his forties standing beside Wen Xili said, "Your Majesty, the general will think that Xiao Shizi is hateful, but this is also an opportunity for Wu Xiye..."

Seeing that King Xiye raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and there was no trace of anger on Heiqi's face, the middle-aged general boldly continued: "Your Majesty, no matter what the purpose of that Prince Xiao is, his actions are just right. Jiang really has the intention of conspiracy!"

There was a flash of coldness in the shrewd eyes of the King of Xiye. That was the case. The more chaos Dayu became, the better it would be for Xiye. This southern border rebelled and the western border was in danger, and Dayu was on the verge of falling apart, just like that Termites are hollowed out as pillars...

As long as he exerts a little more strength in Xiye, the behemoth of Dayu may collapse suddenly...

The West Night King's eyes flickered for a while, and soon became firm. He looked down at the war book in his hand again, and asked in a deep voice, "Wenxili, do you know how many people there are in the Southern Border Army?"

Wen Xili hurriedly clasped his fists and replied: "Back to the king, there are about 30,000 troops."

"Thirty thousand?!" The West Night King murmured, a mocking and cold arc drawn from the corner of his mouth.

This Xiao Yi only brought 30,000 Southern Border troops and dared to attack him in Xiye. He was really short-sighted and overestimated. Did he think that only 30,000 Southern Border troops would be able to defeat them in Xiye? !

but……

The West Night King stroked his chin and beard, thinking thoughtfully: With the current situation in the southern border, I am afraid that he can only send 30,000 troops!

As far as he knows, in the past few years, Dayu Southern Border has been fighting year after year, first Baiyue, and then Nanliang. Although the Southern Border Army managed to defend the Southern Border, it must be severely damaged. This time, under the coercion of Emperor Dayu, the Southern Xinjiang Army supported another 10,000 troops in the Western Xinjiang.

After careful calculation, the 30,000-strong army led by Xiao Yi this time is already nearly half of the southern border.

Although Xiao Yi's Southern Border Army has captured the city of Puri, it is not enough to be afraid of. He can't make a mess or make a mistake. At this critical moment, he must not withdraw the reinforcements sent to the Western Border, which will ruin the big plan!

Now, what I should do is to take Dayu Xijiang in one go!

"Kalle." West Night King suddenly said again.

The middle-aged general hurriedly clasped his fists and replied, "The end is here!" The simple three words already revealed his eagerness to try.

Wenxili sensed something and blurted out, "Your Majesty..."

He still wanted to ask for his life, but he was speechless by the cold eyes of the West Night King. How could he forget! ? Their king is wise and decisive, but he also hates useless people the most.

Not only did he lose the largest city in the southeast, Puli City, but he was once captured and captured by the Southern Border Army. For their king, this was an indelible stain!

In an instant, Wen Xili's heart was extremely cold, slumped and sluggish, but her heart was like a mirror.

It turned out to be the case, so Xiao Yi didn't kill him, because Xiao Yi knew that although he was still alive, he would no longer pose any threat to him, as if he was "dead".

And the Night King of the West never looked at Wenxili again. He gave Kale an order and said: "Kale, you immediately lead 10,000 troops to the southeast border for support! Be sure to kill that Xiao Yi!"

With the help of these 10,000 reinforcements, plus the local troops and horses, even if the lost city cannot be recaptured for a while, it will definitely be enough to stop the advance of the Southern Border Army. Xiye went straight to the Central Plains, and then settled accounts with Xiao Yi, the yellow-haired child!

The West Night King's pupils radiated a confident radiance, and he was imposing. He has 80%, no, 90% certainty that he will be able to win the Western Xinjiang this year.

Two days ago, he had sent another 30,000 reinforcements to the Western Xinjiang day and night. Adding up, Xi Ye had already invested 100,000 troops in the Western Xinjiang. In this battle, Xi Ye was bound to win!

Although the 30,000 Xiye reinforcements sent by the Xiye King have not yet arrived in the western border, Tahai has not waited. At this moment, he is leading the Xiye army in front of Chuliangcheng in the name of "Dayu protects Han Huaijun and Yao Lianghang". After launching several onslaughts in a row, Weiyuan Hou worked hard, and finally managed to defend the city, and quickly sent a book to the capital...

At this time in the capital, the emperor was throwing a tantrum in the imperial study.

"Snapped!"

The emperor casually threw a note and smashed it at the feet of the fifth prince, Han Lingfan.

"Xiao Wu, 20,000 people in Yongzhou moved to Yuzhou?! You dare to approve this?! Do you know how much manpower and material resources it will take? Next, the houses, household registrations, and fields of these people after they migrate... This is Have you ever thought about each and every one of these?! You are just making a statement in the capital, and it is not a frivolous sentence to implement the following things..."

The emperor babbled incessantly, a deep fold appeared between his eyebrows, and looked at Han Lingfan with displeased eyes.

Han Lingfan bowed his head and stood respectfully, listening to the emperor's rebuke without saying a word.

His silence did not make the emperor feel comfortable, but even more disappointed.

"Xiao Wu," the emperor shook his head and sighed, "You have only been in prison for more than a month, so you are so hasty and made such a big mistake, how can you bear the responsibility of monitoring the country! Xiao Wu, you are so disappointing! "

Han Lingfan fell to his knees with a plop, his cheeks still drooping, and said in a difficult tone: "Father, this son is useless, disappointing father..."

At this moment, the hurried footsteps of the little servant came from outside. He almost came in recklessly, and said, "Your Majesty, Weiyuan Hou ordered someone to send an 800-mile expedited book..."

The emperor frowned and hurriedly said: "Quick! Quickly pass on it!"

Soon, the messy but powerful footsteps of the soldiers were mixed with the sound of the collision of the armor getting closer and closer. A young soldier covered in dust strode into the imperial study, first saluting the emperor, and then presenting a statement with both hands. .

Eunuch Liu personally presented the book to the imperial case.

This is the first excerpt issued by Weiyuanhou on November 24th.

The more the emperor looked down, the more ugly his face became. Even if other people in the imperial study didn't know the content of Weiyuanhou's book, they could guess that what was written on it would never be good news.

On the western side of the border... Han Lingfan was worried and asked tentatively, "Father..."

But what was replaced was the fold from the emperor's hand. This time, the fold slammed heavily on Han Lingfan's face. The sharp corner of the fold slashed under Han Lingfan's left face, making a line. Light bloodstains.

The emperor didn't care, and Han Lingfan didn't care either.

"Look at it for yourself!" The emperor looked at Han Lingfan angrily and said, "You also said that Zhennan Wangfu and Han Huaijun have no intentions of rebelling, you see, now they not only openly resist the decree, but also kill Xiye envoys indiscriminately. , provoking war between the two countries, his heart can be punished! Hmph! I know it, King Zhennan is trying to provoke Dayu's heart against the enemy, so that Dayu can be distracted in the western border, so he can take advantage of it. !"

Han Lingfan picked up the book, read it quickly, and bowed his head without saying a word.

The emperor stared at the top of Han Lingfan's jet-black hair, his face uncertain.

Before he ascended the throne, Zhennan Palace was like a thorn in his heart, which had never been pulled out for so many years.

Originally, he planned to take the opportunity to sweep the southern border and get rid of the only vassal king of Dayu, but at this juncture, Xiye suddenly attacked, the war situation in the western border was in crisis, and because of Han Lingguan's rebellion He had another stroke, was in a coma for more than 20 days, and the situation got out of control...

Now Zhennan Palace finally reveals his wolf ambition!
