Chapter 20: Attraction


Sometimes, it's easier to live than to die.

No one knows what happened behind the huge golden chariot that represented the dignity and might of Senxia Mountain, when the Chiba Pass was breached by the Wenren Cangyue.

Because of this, Hu Piyi survived, while some of the most loyal subordinates who knew what happened behind this chariot, as well as those spiritual priests who could have been exempt from the jurisdiction of the military, left in the dark and died.

The people of the Yunqin Empire only heard unfavorable news from the southern border pass again and again.

Even the vast majority of people in the Yun Qin Dynasty did not expect that Yun Qin's defeat at the southern border pass would come so quickly and completely.

After capturing Chiba Pass, a large army of about 10,000 people, extremely tired after a rapid march, quickly arrived at Chiba Pass.

Although under the command of Hu Piyi, the retreating Yunqin army changed its route and went around Jiaye Pass to avoid being completely surrounded by the Damang army, but this tired Damang army, which had been forcibly marched for several days, relied on the powerful weapons such as the catapults and the remaining moon-falling crossbows at Qianye Pass, and under the command of Wenren Cangyue, in the next few ri, it blocked the attack of Yunqin's 30,000 reinforcements and several troops of Qianxia Mountain, and waited for the arrival of Damang's follow-up reinforcements.

The main army of Damang, who was chasing Hu Piyi, only divided 30,000 troops to continue to pursue Hu Piyi, and the remaining 40,000 troops all entered Chiba Pass in accordance with the established route.

After this Damang main army entered the Chiba Pass, it was only three days that the two passes of Qianyu and Hitomian near the Qianxia Chiba Pass were all broken by the Damang army.

At Chiba Pass, Nari was breached, and the main army of 70,000 people pursued by Damang was five miles away from Senxia Mountain.

Therefore, in the expectation of most people in the Yunqin Dynasty, Wenren Cangyue will have a little time to repair, and it will be about ten days from that time before it is possible to assemble and attack Qianxia Mountain.

But in just eight days, the Da Mang army had already broken through three levels in a row, and the vanguard of the Da Mang had already invaded the territory of Yunqin Hu Piyi took a total of more than 40,000 Yunqin troops to retreat to Jiaye Pass of Qianxia Mountain, plus nearly 50,000 defenders left behind by various departments of Qianxia Mountain, the rear of Qianxia Mountain, under the emergency mobilization of the Yunqin Empire, has also rushed to Qianxia Mountain.

At this time, the total number of Da Mang's troops at the three passes of Qianxia Mountain and those close to Qianxia Mountain was only about 150,000.

The people of the Yunqin Empire naturally couldn't think so thoroughly, they understood that there was a time lag in the arrival of these reinforcements, and the advance speed of the Damang army was far beyond the estimate of the Yunqin army, they didn't understand that at this time, even if the other most powerful general of the empire, Gu Yunjing, the commander of the dragon and snake, was there, he couldn't avoid being broken into the territory of Yunqin by the Damang army.

They only knew that the more than 400,000 troops of the Southern Expedition to Yunqin in front of them, under the command of Hu Piyi, were beaten so that only so many people came back.

They only knew that when so many reinforcements rushed in, they were even broken through Qianxia Mountain by the Da Mang army.

Being invaded into the territory by the enemy's army, the residents of some towns began to flee and be displaced, which is something that has never happened at all since the founding of Yunqin, and almost all the people of Yunqin have not thought about it at all The people of Yunqin began to panic a little, and began to be extremely angry, demanding that Hu Piyi's commander-in-chief be removed and that Hu Piyi's crime be punished.

Lin Xi crouched motionlessly in a small piece of barren grass.

He was dressed in a green robe, and draped in a rough grass blanket made of some long grass, but it was a very concealing straw blanket.

Not far in front of him was a large area of charred ruins.

On the map of Yunqin, this place was originally called Xiaguang Town, here, not only can you see the gorgeous sunset on Qianxia Mountain in the distance, but also produce a bowl of Chixia wine, which can make people's faces redder than sunset, and more colorful.

There used to be many sake breweries, and the surrounding fields were planted with a lot of sorghum for sake brewing, and it was usually a more lively town than Donggang Town and Yanlai Town, but at the moment, it is just a charred ruin.

Lin Xi knew that Wenren Cangyue would definitely attack Qianxia Mountain and drag Yun Qin into the quagmire of war, if it wasn't for what he did at the Dragon Snake Pass, as long as it dragged on until this autumn and winter, I am afraid that Yun Qin's situation would be even worse, but he didn't expect that Wenren Cangyue's army would be able to break through Qianxia Mountain so quickly and hold those passes of Qianxia Mountain.

When he arrived at the Qianxia Border Pass, the Damang army had already broken through the three passes, and after Qianxia Mountain, half of Nanling Province had been reduced to a battlefield.

In the distance, in a mixed forest, the howl of a wild wolf echoed.

Without the need for brass eagle eyes, Lin Xi's gaze locked onto a few moving gray spots in the miscellaneous woods that were six or seven miles away from him.

Originally, in this kind of area, it was impossible for there to be traces of wild wolves, but the market town here was only destroyed for not many days, and the traces of people disappeared, and the wild wolves that originally appeared around the foot of Qianxia Mountain had already traveled hundreds of miles and appeared here.

Lin Xi's gaze did not stop at these wild wolves, his gaze continued to turn to the ruins of the market town.

At this moment, there was a reckless cavalry army of more than 20 people patrolling around the market town.

The horses under the seat of this Da Mang cavalry were wrapped in cotton cloth, and Lin Xi had been with this cavalry for two days, so he could be sure that this cavalry army must be the reconnaissance army of a certain Da Mang army that had entered the territory of Nanling Province.

Xu Qiubai's whereabouts are extremely secretive, according to some information collected by Zhantai Qiantang before, Xu Qiubai wandered around at will like a lone wolf, but he was assassinated again and again without anyone's instructions.

In other words, his task was only to assassinate Yun Qin's generals as much as possible, and there was no restriction on when and where to assassinate him.

Under such circumstances, even the entire Yunqin military would be unable to trace Xu Qiubai's specific whereabouts, and it would be impossible for Lin Xi alone to find out the whereabouts of Xu Qiubai, a powerful archer who had participated in the battle formation the most in the entire Biluo border army.

However, when he decided to rush to the Qianxia Border Pass, Lin Xi had already figured out some of Vice President Xia's intentions, and he had already figured out what he was going to do.

Xu Qiubai was constantly assassinating Yun Qin's generals.

He also decided to be like Xu Qiubai, specializing in assassinating reckless generals.

This was a kind of cultivation for him, and he was sure that Xu Qiubai would definitely notice his existence, and in this way, he might be able to make Xu Qiubai take the initiative to appear in front of him.

Lin Xi looked at the reckless scout army calmly and patiently.

In the past two days of tracking, he has observed some habits of this reconnaissance army.

However, the behavior of the reconnaissance army was very different from usual, not only did it move very slowly, but it also stayed in the same area for too long.

All kinds of signs made him judge that there would be a reckless army that would pass through here and return to the Qianxia Mountains along some of the secret marks left by this reconnaissance army.

So when the scout army left the charred town and headed for the Qianxia Mountains, he did not follow the scout army any longer, but moved slowly into a weedy and somewhat waterlogged canal.

I don't have time to write today, and these two chapters are all out of the night.

This chapter is a little less wordworded, and there will be another outbreak tomorrow :
