Chapter 541 Give it a try
She had also seen the power of Lei Zhenzi last night. Although they were far away, the sound was still as loud as thunder, and even the whole mountain shook a few times.
"That's that, Brother Lin, Brother Lin, do you have any Lei Zhenzi? Can you give me some?"
Xiao Tiansheng rubbed his hands with a flattering expression.
If he had a few of these sharp weapons, he might be able to accomplish great feats or save his own life if used properly in the next war.
"There is still one."
Lin Xiaofan took out the remaining Lei Zhenzi from his arms and weighed it in his hands. Seeing Xiao Tiansheng acting like a big bad wolf seeing a little white rabbit, he hurriedly took a step back:
"This must be given to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, or used against the enemy. Don't grab it. If the mechanism is triggered and explodes, we will all be finished."
Hearing this, Xiao Tiansheng took a step back and looked at Lei Zhenzi with some vigilance, fearing that it would suddenly explode.
Duanmu Ke'er originally wanted to play with it, but after hearing these words, he suddenly lost his mind. If it suddenly exploded while holding it in her hand, she would probably not even have ashes left.
"It's okay, it won't explode in my hands. I still have a lot of Lei Zhenzi at home. If you are willing to do it with me, Lei Zhenzi will take care of it."
Lin Xiaofan started teasing and put Lei Zhenzi away.
Hearing this, Xiao Tiansheng touched his head sarcastically:
"Forget it then."
Compared with Da Qian, Datang obviously has more development potential, and the Emperor of Tang Dynasty was very kind to him. If it were just a few Lei Zhenzi, it would not be able to impress their relationship.
"Brother Lin, where should we go next?"
Unconsciously, Xiao Tiansheng regarded Lin Xiaofan as his backbone.
"Is there any suitable place for an ambush ahead?"
Lin Xiaofan looked at the personal guard beside Xiao Tiansheng who had been leading the way.
"Reporting to your lord, it will be difficult to ambush again. The closest one is Guangling City of the Tang Dynasty, which is the target of the Tianlang Kingdom this time. There are many routes from here to Guangling City. After the opponent has encountered an attack , will not necessarily take the shortest path.”
The guard saluted.
"It's a pity that I didn't bring a map, otherwise it would have been much better."
Xiao Tiansheng regretted a little. He did not expect that he would have such a big "gain" from this trip, and he directly ran into the army of the Sirius Kingdom that had sneaked in.
"Since there is no good ambush location, we will act according to the situation. I have sent Shadow One and Shadow Two to investigate. Let's rest where we are for the night and see how the Sirius Kingdom will act."
"Don't be too nervous. Last night's battle was able to hold off the elite Sirius forces for a while. The troops near Guangling City also had time to mobilize. This crisis has probably been resolved."
Lin Xiaofan said.
"Too."
Xiao Tiansheng scratched his head. They had delayed the time.
After a great battle, the soldiers were very tired.
Especially the men under Xiao Tiansheng's command had not rested for more than a day and had also experienced a big battle.
And maybe after being hit this time, the Sirius elite will withdraw on their own.
"Brother Xiao, you have just finished the battle. Take a good rest. Let's go find some food."
In order to make this ambush fast, they all went into battle lightly and did not bring much food. If they don't go looking for some food, they can only rush to Guangling City quickly and cannot organize another ambush.
"Okay, be careful."
Xiao Tiansheng nodded slightly.
At night, they split up and lit a bonfire. The wind in December was the coldest, and they had no tents. Even if they risked being discovered, they had to keep a fire lit.
……
Under the Heavenly Book, the Heavenly Wolf Military Camp.
A light illuminated the large tent. The facilities inside were simple and there was not even a table. There were only two chairs and a map hanging empty in the tent.
Tie Yan and Zong Wenfu stood next to the map, with the north wind whistling in their ears from time to time.
"Withdraw? Or continue to fight?"
Tie Yan exhaled and looked at the map in front of him, hesitating.
Retreating now seems to be the better option.
But this operation, which the Sirius Emperor had been planning for several years, resulted in countless casualties in the Sirius Kingdom, and finally came back empty-handed, which was truly humiliating.
And such a good opportunity will be difficult to come by again in the future.
"I think, keep fighting."
Zong Wenfu looked at the map for a long time, and his eyes gradually became firm.
"Our whereabouts were just revealed, and the other party didn't have much preparation. Let's move forward at full speed, rush directly to Guangling City, and capture it in one fell swoop."
"how do I say this?"
"In total, the opponent's ambush was a very risky move. There were only a hundred cavalrymen. If we hadn't been prepared for Lei Zhenzi, we could have easily wiped them all out. Looking at the mountain again, although the opponent's offensive was fierce, When we retreated, the road was difficult. They could obviously chase us and kill more people, but they didn't. "
"This shows that they are short of manpower and their arrows are almost completely used."
Tie Yan nodded slightly. The other party made a grand appearance yesterday, but in reality they are strong on the outside and capable on the inside. I was also stunned by the Forbidden Thunder Technique and didn't think about this problem.
"The garrison of Guangling City is only three thousand, and there are still our people inside. Even if the opponent is prepared, we can easily capture it without losing many troops."
"The three cities closest to Guangling City don't have many defenders, and it will take at least seven days to get to Guangling City. This time is enough for us to capture the city. By then, even if we mobilize them all, The number of people is only less than 10,000, so they pose no threat to us.”
"If the Tang Dynasty wants to retake Guangling City, there are only two ways. The first is to mobilize the troops near the Zixiang River. There are 50,000 people in total. We will definitely not be able to bear it. But it will take fifteen days for them to come over. Our reinforcements It only takes thirteen days to get here, and by then, the city will still be ours."
"Secondly, there are 50,000 Yuecheng soldiers and horses mobilized next to Chang'an. The urgent march will take seventeen days."
"So as long as we are faster and capture the city within seven days, victory will still belong to us."
Zong Wenfu held a wooden stick in his hand and kept pointing at the cities on the map of the Tang Dynasty.
Tie Yan looked at the thin young man in front of him and admired him more and more. He has been in the army for nearly thirty years and has fought hundreds of battles, large and small, but when analyzing the war situation, he is still not as good as his opponent.
"General Iron, what do you think?"
Zong Wenfu's words brought Tie Yan back to his senses, clapped his hands and said:
"Wonderful. It's only seven days, can we make it there?"
"We no longer have to be sneaky and move forward at full speed with only seven days' worth of food and supplies. Just tonight, we can go directly along the Tianshu Road and take the shortest road to get there in four days."
Zong Wenfu spoke, and the candlelight shone in his eyes, sparkling.
