Text Chapter 2183: 800 Million Troops Destroyed
Witnessing Qingyue's calm and decisive command, Cheng Taize secretly praised her. There was a reason why this woman was appreciated by Hao Defang.
Yang Qing smiled bitterly in his heart. He admitted that Qingyue's ability was one thing, but Qingyue seemed to lack certain abilities. She was a little too decisive in some aspects. To put it bluntly, she didn't understand human politics. For example, she acted on her own initiative against the ancient ambush troops regardless of Miao Yi's reminder. She knew that Heitan had a special relationship with Miao Yi but still threatened him, resulting in considerable losses. Therefore, it is understandable why this woman knew that Su Yun was Hao Defang's beloved but still killed Su Yun's family.
When Hao Defang was still there, Su Yun could put aside her family feud for the benefit of Hao Defang. Now that Hao Defang is gone, Su Yun and Qingyue are a bit like competing with each other. When they meet, they both have a bad face or turn a blind eye, which makes Yang Qing a little embarrassed to be caught in the middle.
He also reminded Su Yun not to provoke Qingyue. Qingyue now was not someone she could afford to provoke. Qingyue held real power in the army and was trusted by Miao Yi. The trust built up over a long period of time was not even comparable to that of Yang Qing. Miao Yi even entrusted his life and property to Qingyue to maintain the inner guard of the palace. That trust was self-evident, and even some old people in small worlds could not compare to it, not even Fu Qing and others could compare to it.
The reason was very simple. Qingyue did nothing selfishly. She thought that some of the things she did wrong were good for Miao Yi. She was brave and responsible, and would not do anything because of her own selfishness. This was something that few other people around Miao Yi could do.
At least one thing Yang Qing was very clear about was that Miao Yi would not give him such a large military power. If Su Yun really angered Qingyue, if she was killed by Qingyue, I'm afraid Miao Yi would turn a blind eye. At most, he would compensate Yang Qing for it. It was unlikely that he would touch Qingyue for such a thing.
Although Qingyue's actions in some aspects often anger Miao Yi, just like the ancient things, but no matter how angry he is, Miao Yi will let it go in the end. Yang Qing felt that if there is a future, Qingyue, this woman, may become the second Pojun. In addition, Qingyue's identity as a woman is also advantageous. She can directly enter and exit the inner house and contact the princess Yun Zhiqiu without any scruples. Yun Zhiqiu is a very shrewd woman, and her means of winning people's hearts are very powerful. Qingyue has a good relationship with Yun Zhiqiu and is quite trusted by Yun Zhiqiu. With Yun Zhiqiu helping to speak in Miao Yi's ear, Qingyue's position is as solid as a rock, and basically no one can shake it.
The right governor of the imperial army, Long Xin, who is on par with him, is much inferior. As a confidant, sometimes the gap in ability is not the most important. For the master, loyalty is the first priority. In the Gaoyan incident, Long Xin's actions were selfish. Yang Qing estimated that Long Xin's impression of Miao Yi had been greatly reduced. At least when facing the appointment of his life and property, Miao Yi will definitely make more considerations.
On the battlefield, Qingyue gave orders one after another, continuously letting the breakout troops pass, and constantly charging and cutting them off from both wings. The breakout troops that were released in a row became live targets. Without the support of follow-up forces, they were wiped out one after another.
Qu Changtian in the battle formation saw this situation with his eyes wide open. The troops he sent to pretend to break out did not attract any enemy troops to gather, nor did they create any opportunities or reduce any pressure for his prepared breakout. The enemy commander was unmoved and was not tempted at all.
Obviously, if he broke out by force, the enemy commander would definitely deal with him in the same way.
A little observation will show that the enemy's abundant magic-breaking bows are the key to the enemy's ease, and the enemy commander is calm and composed.
Now the entire army has been cut off by the enemy's killing and most of them have been entangled. It is impossible to assemble again.
"Pass my military order, each unit will assemble and break out on its own!" Qu Changtian gritted his teeth, either death or death, why not give it a try.
Soon, the battlefield changed drastically. The besieged guards desperately broke out in all directions, without any rules at all, fighting on their own.
Qingyue was very calm, not confused by the dazzling scene in front of him, and kept a close eye on the battlefield situation, mobilizing the troops in the battlefield to tightly entangle the larger-scale guards, especially the main general Qu Changtian, and never gave him a chance to escape.
As for the small group of guards rushing out, Qingyue ordered the surrounding groups of broken law bows and arrows to shoot according to the situation.
The stream of light was like rain, roars, and screams were endless.
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people who rushed out were knocked over by the dense stream of light as soon as they appeared. There was a rain of arrows attacking in front, and the chasing troops came from behind. Once the chasing troops defeated their group, they immediately threw them to the broken law bows and arrows outside to deal with, and turned around and killed them back in the battle formation.
The breakout situation on the scene can be imagined, which is tantamount to accelerating the consumption of the guards' strength.
As one side gains, the other loses, the fewer guards there are, the more enemies one person faces.
Qu Changtian's fight immediately accelerated the entire army into a desperate situation.
When Qu Changtian looked around tragically, the sporadic fighting around him had stopped, and only millions of soldiers were left to defend him desperately.
Five hundred million troops! Qu Changtian's eyes were red, and he took out the Star Bell to report the battle situation to the top, and also made a final apology and farewell, confessing his incompetence!
"The army retreats!" Qingyue gave an order.
The densely packed army quickly left the battlefield and retreated to the surrounding areas.
Seeing this, Qu Changtian's teeth almost bit out blood, and he quickly put away the Star Bell in his hand and roared: "Attack! Bite it!"
As soon as he saw it, he knew what Qingyue was going to do. Qingyue wanted to distance herself from them and was ready to kill them all at once with the group-breaking bows. After all, the troops who could still surround the central army at this time were definitely the elite of the elite guards. Killing them hard would cause too many casualties on their side.
How could Qu Changtian watch such a situation happen, and how could he let the other party do such a murderous act.
The troops of Qu's army immediately chased and bit them like crazy.
Qingyue sneered. If the enemy army did not move, she would use the broken bows to deal with them and annihilate them in one fell swoop. If the enemy army moved, they could not escape her murderous hands.
Seeing that the battle formation of the guards had dispersed, Qingyue waved her hand and gave an order, "Attack!"
Among the troops retreating to the surroundings, a group of troops suddenly rushed out in the opposite direction, taking the opportunity to insert into the loosened guards, directly dividing the millions of enemy troops that were difficult to attack before into small pieces and annihilating them separately.
"Those who stand in my way will die!" The generals around Qu Changtian roared, and the outer protective army was pried away. Even the generals around Qu Changtian had to personally participate in the fight.
And only a few thousand people were left to guard Qu Changtian.
Witnessing the battle, Cheng Taize turned back and smiled at Miao Yi: "Your Majesty, the situation is set!" Although they became sworn brothers, he still called him "Your Majesty".
Miao Yi nodded, stared at the battlefield and said: "Tell Qingyue that whoever captures Qu Changtian alive will be rewarded by the whole army!"
"Yes!" Yang Zhaoqing understood what he meant. Qu Changtian is now the commander of the left guard of the Imperial Guards. The impact of capturing this person alive on the morale of the Imperial Guards can be imagined. If Qu Changtian ordered his subordinates outside the Imperial Guards who did not participate in the battle to surrender, the impact would be even greater.
Soon, the troops besieging Qu Changtian were like crazy, and there were more troops around desperately squeezing towards Qu Changtian.
Not for anything else, just for the sentence that the prince personally issued an order to reward the whole army!
What does this mean? It means wealth and honor, and it means opportunities that others will have to fight for their whole lives. It is totally worth taking a risk. If you don't try, there are many people who will fight for it!
If you are at a disadvantage, it's another matter. Even a blind man knows that this side will win. What's there to be afraid of with so many people coming together? Whoever grabs it will get it!
There are too many people here, and many people can't touch the fighting. Those with weak cultivation can't squeeze in at all. Those with high cultivation grab you and throw you back to grab the credit, and curse you, "Get out of the way, it's none of your business!"
Those with low cultivation want to take advantage, aren't you kidding?
Qu Changtian has fallen into the sea of people, holding a long sword in each hand, like a madman, desperately dealing with the siege of masters from all directions, and his whole body is covered in blood.
All the generals around him have died, how can they stop the siege of so many masters who want to grab the credit.
When he found that all the people around him were masters and there was no hope of killing one more, "Kill!" Qu Changtian roared hysterically, his face full of grief and anger, his eyes wide open, and he swung his sword with all his strength to block the attack. He swung the sword to his neck, decisively and neatly, and directly cut off his head, and hot blood gushed out.
The messy siege was stunned, and their efforts were in vain...
Upon hearing the news that Qu Changtian committed suicide, Miao Yi's face darkened slightly.
At this time, the war was not completely over, but Qu Changtian, the main general, was finished first...
In the starry sky, dragons and phoenixes soared and galloped, and the dragon chariot was gorgeous. Qingzhu sat in the small pavilion, Zhan Ruyi was quiet in the small room behind, and the surrounding army followed.
"Your Majesty, Qu Changtian has lost contact..." In front of the throne, Wu Qu closed his eyes and sighed.
Po Jun, who stood with his hands behind his back, also closed his eyes and looked up. It goes without saying what losing contact means. His two deputies, Ximen Wuye and Qu Changtian, both died at the hands of Niu Youde.
Qingzhu kept a stern face and said nothing.
After a while, Wu Qu's Xingling made contact again, and reported sadly: "Your Majesty, Hua Yitian's 300 million troops were completely lost, and only more than 2 million people broke out of the siege. I apologize to Your Majesty!"
Eight hundred million troops destroyed? Yin Shuang and Bai Xue in the small room behind looked at each other, their eyes full of tension. The news of the successive defeats in the war made them very uneasy. They didn't expect Niu Youde to be so powerful that even such a large-scale guard army was not his opponent.
I heard that Niu Youde was good at fighting and was known to be invincible. After all, he was from the Ying family. They would also say some weird words. Now they are only afraid, worried about whether they can win in the encounter?
Zhan Ruyi, who listened quietly, slowly turned around and looked at this side through the lattice window.
The Lord of Qing said slowly: "The enemy is numerous and we are few, what crime have we committed? The crime is the traitor Niu Youde. Send an order to Hua Yitian, and ask him to contact the troops in the southern army nearby and try to gather the army. Don't attack rashly and wait to meet up with me." (To be continued.)
