Chapter 806: Blooming Everywhere

This great battle was not just happening here.

Likewise.

Outside, the great battle had also officially begun at this moment.

At the Tomb Cluster above, the Liaodong Army and the Nanyang Army were both stationed in significant numbers.

This time, the Nanyang Army's force of three hundred thousand surged over, and with the Liaodong Army's two hundred thousand, that made a full five hundred thousand. It was certainly impossible for all these people to follow them down into the tomb. They could only be stationed above.

At this moment.

The great armies that had come to reinforce from all over Longyan, along with those civilian experts and various organizations.

Upon seeing these Nanyang troops, how could they let this stand?

Do it!

Three hundred thousand!

Once again, three hundred thousand against three hundred thousand.

Generals from all corners of Longyan gathered together; this moment truly drew the attention of the whole world.

He naturally had not been taken into the tomb by Qiao Yuan, precisely to avoid any other accidents.

After all, this was the Longyan Crown Prince.

Therefore, before entering, he had Xie Fang detained here, to be guarded by these Nanyang troops.

All the Longyan people were watching.

"Hahahaha, our people have arrived, see that? Our people have arrived! You will soon be blown into cannon fodder, cannon fodder!"

When Xie Fang heard the sound of artillery fire, he became completely excited, shouting and yelling.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you seem to have a lot of confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Longyan army."

Liu Shiji gave a cold laugh.

This Liu Shiji was also a famous general in Nanyang, and could be considered on par with Cheng Zhiming. But while Cheng Zhiming could be called a fierce general, this Liu Shiji was a master strategist! He was skilled in commanding troops, proficient in the Art of War, and was an intelligent and cautious person, the type known as a poisonous advisor.

The group of Nanyang generals all had very dark expressions.

But they could not do anything to him.

The Longyan Crown Prince had a sensitive status; killing him at this time would only make this group of people from Longyan burst with bloodlust, which would be absolutely disadvantageous to the war situation.

Several generals were so angered by him that they were about to draw their blades.

Liu Shiji gave a sinister smile: "Your Highness's suggestion, I will consider it, but let's wait until that day comes!"

With a single order.

"Hahahaha, do you think you can still hold them back?"

Xie Fang laughed loudly: "However, General Liu, I suggest you keep my life for now; it wouldn't be good if you didn't have a bargaining chip when you surrender, would it? Right?"

"Bang!"

Just as he had thought.

The people who came to reinforce this time were from all directions of Longyan, from various vassal states and territories.

Without a famous general like Xiao Qian here, these generals refused to submit to one another. Coupled with the fact that the internal struggle for succession was still at a white-hot stage, everyone had their own little schemes in their hearts. Furthermore, there were many civilian experts this time, and they had always existed without any formal organization. Naturally, it was somewhat impossible to twist them into a single rope all at once.

Just when everyone thought that Liu Shiji would hold his ground and not come out, he actually issued a surprising order.

Take the initiative to attack!

It turned out that this fellow had accurately judged that this group of troops from Longyan had no core generals leading them, meaning their military morale was very scattered and the troops were very disorganized. He naturally had to seize this opportunity to take the initiative to attack, and this move actually achieved miraculous results.

"Hold on, hold on!"

"Hmph, why isn't it you from Jizhou going? That's thirty thousand people, you want us three thousand to block them?"

"You, you, you!"

Therefore.

As soon as Liu Shiji charged, the seemingly imposing Longyan Army here fell into chaos all at once.

"What are you doing, General Wang, why don't you send troops to defend?"

A group of generals had no other Method and could only choose to retreat temporarily.

In a wretched state.

No one expected that the Longyan troops, who had built up so much emotion for so long to come and reinforce, would be beaten back by the enemy just like that!

"Report, report! The mountain peak in the southeast has been broken! General, the enemy's firepower is too fierce!"

"Retreat!"

"Retreat first!"

All of Longyan was in an uproar.

What the hell is this?

Our Longyan army can't even beat the Nanyang Army?

Anger!

Who wouldn't be angry?

Whose heart isn't feeling stifled?

This was a drama of pursuit and mutual slaughter.

Two hundred thousand chasing two hundred thousand.

The magnificence of this scene needs no further elaboration.

Underground battlefield.

The battle situation was equally tragic.

At this moment, the number of troops on both sides was equal.

If he lost these fifty thousand, then even with the defensive base, it would still be very difficult for them to block the Nanyang army's offensive.

This was suppression through sheer numbers.

Although the Qingzhou Army led by Xiao Qian had undoubtedly always held the upper hand.

This still did not mean that they could truly control this defensive base.

Fifty thousand troops could only temporarily stall the Nanyang army's offensive, but they could only fight while retreating, unless the lives of these fifty thousand men were truly to be discarded. But this was not what Xiao Qian wanted to see.

Xiao Qian was speechless at this moment.

Both were troops.

Why were the others able to run so fast?

Fighting while retreating gave the Nanyang army more opportunities.

"Kill!"

The Nanyang army's vanguard unit was extremely fast. On this plain, they moved like lightning.

This meant that the Nanyang army had a clear advantage in speed while running.

Looking at the distance over there, there were still nearly several kilometers left.

Xiao Qian shouted angrily: "Take off the armor, everyone take off the armor!"

Only after a careful comparison did one realize that the Qingzhou Army consisted almost entirely of armored soldiers. The saying that the Qingzhou Armored Soldiers awe the world did not come from nothing. Although this armor had been specially processed by Yintan City to reduce a lot of weight, armor was still armor; armor intended to provide protection still had weight.

But looking at the Nanyang army side, they were almost traveling light.

They had no advantage in armor, which also made their load much lighter.

However.

The drawbacks also manifested at this time.

Without their armor, the Qingzhou Army once again became living targets while running.

At this, the Qingzhou armored soldiers took off their armor one by one and began to run like madmen.

Their speed indeed increased significantly.

Very quickly, they left the Nanyang army behind.

One by one, the Qingzhou soldiers fell.

"Run!"

"General Qian, take charge of the rear guard!"

The Nanyang army soldiers who began to fall behind, the Divine Crossbowmen, once again displayed their archery skills.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

One by one, the powerful arrows directly pierced through those Qingzhou soldiers who had taken off their armor.

Consequently.

More and more lightly equipped soldiers were shot and killed.

Although the Qingzhou Army followed orders strictly and had rigorous military discipline, this was after all the first time they had encountered such a situation, and there was still a lack of tacit understanding and proficiency among the soldiers as they worked together.

Xiao Qian decisively gave the order.

A portion of fully armed armored soldiers would be responsible for protection at the rear, while the lightly equipped Qingzhou soldiers in front would continue to gallop.

But more and more Qingzhou soldiers began to take off their armor.

The battle situation was tense and tragic.
