First Lady of the Crown Prince Chapter 992

Chapter 992 The Rise of the God of War (Jingkong)

Yan Kingdom has ushered in another brutal winter, and the biting snow has almost never stopped since the winter moon.

The battle at Simapo has been going on for two months, and it has been impossible to capture it for a long time. Due to the heavy snow blocking the road, the court's baggage could not be delivered. The soldiers at the border had been hungry for several days and could only rely on digging grass roots and chewing tree bark to satisfy their hunger. .

Either eating the horse's carcass.

In the general's camp, several generals and commanders gathered together. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Just about a year ago, a rebel army suddenly rose up in the southwest of Yan State to resist the empress. They spread rumors everywhere, claiming that the empress' throne was erroneous.

The Emperor had no intention of passing the throne to her. She forced her biological father to step down from the throne and put him under house arrest in the harem, and then she ascended the throne.

She is not truly destined.

Furthermore, her methods were too cruel and harsh, even worse than those of the previous tyrants, killing the loyal and the common people.

If the ruler is unkind, the country will be ruined.

The above are all the words of the rebels, some are true and some are false. It is true that Shangguan Yan forced the monarch to give up the throne, and it is also true that he was placed under house arrest. However, she did not rule tyranny, nor did she harm the loyal and the people.

As to whether she is destined by destiny, it is a matter of judgment and wisdom.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the people in the southwest don't know what Shangguan Yan is like. The rebels spread rumors about Shangguan Yan's atrocities, and everyone's talk makes the people question Shangguan Yan's character as a king.

The timing of the rise of the rebels is very sensitive. On the surface, the six countries maintained peaceful peace, but secretly they were already at war with each other. The situation at the border was tense, and the imperial court sent a large number of troops to the border. In comparison, an army was insignificant. The rebels did not attract much attention from the court.

But therein lies the problem.

Simapo is under the jurisdiction of Cangzhou. As the chief general of Cangzhou, Guo Mang received the order from the court and immediately led his 10,000 troops to Simapo to clear out the rebels.

Like the imperial court, he initially thought they were just some stragglers who were not worthy of being on the stage.

When the war started, we discovered that the opponent's number of troops far exceeded Cangzhou's regular army.

No one knows where these troops came from, like weeds, they grew over the entire Simapo overnight.

Guo Mang was an experienced general. He thought that the advantage in numbers could not mean anything. After all, they were the regular army. The soldiers had the strongest physique and quality, and the military camp was also equipped with the most powerful equipment and weapons.

Victory over more with less is just around the corner.

When they actually fought, Guo Mang realized something was wrong.

These rebels are so good at fighting!

And their baggage and armor are as hard as those of the regular army!

The two sides fought, and Guo Mang was defeated. Not only did he fail to capture the rebel garrison, but he also lost a city.

This city has no walls, and the nearby Simapo is a strategic location that can be attacked and defended.

Guo Mang changed his previous radical style of play and adopted roundabout tactics. He wanted to delay time while waiting for the reinforcements from Yunzhou next door to arrive, but heavy snow closed the mountains.

Let alone reinforcements, even grain and grass cannot be transported.

The soldiers were cold and hungry, and the wounded soldiers could not receive treatment. The soldiers were demoralized and their morale was extremely low.

Guo Mang called several lieutenants over today to discuss the next plan.

“The soldiers can't hold on any longer.”

This is the first sentence Guo Mang said.

Everyone in the camp was unable to refute.

This time they were careless and underestimated the enemy. They didn't expect the Cangzhou rebels to be so troublesome, and they killed everyone by surprise.

The disaster is not just to meet the weather in the snow -capped mountains, but the grain and reinforcements cannot arrive smoothly at all.

Is it true that God is going to destroy them?

“I have a plan here.” Guo Mang said seriously.

The people were not very interested, mainly because they had suffered too many defeats and their confidence had long been shattered.

Guo Mang understood what everyone was thinking. In fact, he was the one who collapsed the most. As the commander in chief of this battle, he could not escape the blame. Others could say that we were acting under orders. We would fight how the superiors told us to fight.

Can Guo Mang comfort himself in this way?

Obviously not.

He spent a lot of effort to stabilize his emotions that were on the verge of collapse. He licked his chapped and bleeding lips and said: "The opponent's troops are more than twice the strength of our army. In addition, they have sufficient food and grass and sufficient combat power. We It is not appropriate to attack from the front.”

There was silence in the camp, and no one seemed to listen to his words.

Guo Mang looked at the falling snow outside the camp and continued: "We attacked the rebel enemy camp at night and captured Zhou Chongyue alive or took his head!"

Zhou Chongyue, leader of the rebels.

According to legend, this man was born with supernatural powers, strong martial arts, and courageous and resourceful. It took him less than a year to grow an insignificant rebel army into a force of 20,000.

How easy is it to take his head?

Fortunately, not long ago, the spies came with news that Zhou Chongyue accidentally fell off his horse during military training, was trampled by the horse's hoof, and was seriously injured.

This is a good time for them to hit Zhou Chongyue hard.

Guo Mang looked at everyone solemnly and said: "I know this task is difficult, but this is our only way out. Zhou Chongyue is injured. If we don't kill him now, we will never have another chance! Once he recovers, They lead their troops to attack us, and we have no power to resist! No, we don't have to wait until that day, all of us will starve to death and freeze to death here. We are all going to die anyway, why not die on the battlefield? Killing one is worth it! You two have made a profit! When you get to the underworld, at least you will be worthy of your ancestors! You did not come to this world in vain!"

These words may not sound like much to ordinary people, but in the hearts of every soldier who serves the country loyally, they undoubtedly ignite their last vestige of fighting spirit.

They are not afraid of death.

What I'm afraid of is not being able to die properly.

The snow is getting heavier, which is perfect weather for a sneak attack.

The rebels probably never dreamed that the Cangzhou army, which was so hungry that its chest was pressed against its back, would dare to launch a night attack on them on such a snowy night.

This is simply life-threatening.

Guo Mang carefully selected the 100 most powerful soldiers. Everyone did not eat dinner and gave the last grass roots and horse meat to these 100 warriors.

Tonight's battle is a success or failure.

After filling his stomach a little, Guo Mang personally led a hundred soldiers to attack. Before leaving, he appointed Deputy General Lin to prepare the general. If he could not come back, he would let Deputy General Lin continue to lead everyone in the battle.

A group of people rode horses and braved the goose-feather heavy snow into the night.

They took a long detour through the eastern woods, past frozen lakes, and all the way to the right wing of the rebel camp.

It's all going great.

The horse was left in the forest, and Guo Mang led everyone to sneak into the enemy camp quietly.

At this moment, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly a large number of archers sprang out from all around, drawing their bows and arrows in unison, surrounding them.

Guo Mang's expression changed!

Immediately afterwards, a wild laughter came from behind. The archers automatically gave way to a path, and a tall man in his thirties, wearing armor and with a beard, strode towards Guo Mang.

He stopped ten steps away from Guo Mang.

Guo Mang took a closer look and was instantly dumbfounded: "Zhou Chongyue?"

No, I fell into a trap!

Zhou Chongyue was not injured at all. He deliberately sent out false news to lure him in for a surprise attack!

Although the rebels have a large number of troops, sufficient food and grass, and have a high chance of winning in a fight, Guo Mang is not a vegetarian. He is good at defending, otherwise, Zhou Chongyue would have defeated them long ago!

Zhou Chongyue smiled and said: "General Guo, it's not easy to lure you here. Don't be anxious first. Listen to what I have to say. Zhou admires General Guo very much. If General Guo is willing to surrender to me, I promise General Guo that not only will If I don't kill you, your subordinates will be saved. The official road is blocked by snow, have you been hungry for many days? By chance, I have good wine and good food here to entertain General Guo and you all!"

He finished speaking and clapped his hands.

Behind the archers, a row of cooks from the garrison came over carrying braziers and several roasted whole sheep.

The aroma of mutton mixed with the crispy aroma of sesame made the already hungry Cangzhou soldiers drool instantly.

Guo Mang also swallowed.

Zhou Chongyue smiled and made an invitation gesture: "General Guo, you're welcome."

Guo Mang looked at the roasted whole lamb that was sizzling with oil, his eyes were glowing green, he was drooling, and he walked towards the roasted whole lamb in a daze.

Zhou Chongyue smiled with satisfaction.

But just as he passed by Zhou Chongyue, Guo Mang suddenly stabbed Zhou Chongyue with his sword!

Zhou Chongyue suddenly changed his color!

Fortunately, he reacted very quickly and caught Guo Mang's wrist in time.

Guo Mang was too hungry and couldn't use his full strength. Otherwise, he would have succeeded with the sword just now!

"General Guo, it seems that you have given up the toast and the fine wine!" Zhou Chongyue smiled coldly and kicked Guo Mang in the chest, knocking Guo Mang down in the snow with his sword.

When the other Cangzhou soldiers saw this, they also came to their senses, drew their swords from their waists and rushed towards Zhou Chongyue.

A row of archers stood in front of Zhou Chongyue, and formed an encirclement with the remaining archers against Guo Mang and his party.

Zhou Chongyue said coldly: "Kill me! No one will be left alive!"

The archers fired their arrows in unison, and the soldiers of Cangzhou fell one after another. Soon, the snow was stained with blood.

Guo Mang looked at the soldiers lying in a pool of blood, his eyes were red and he clenched the sword in his hand: "Zhou Chongyue, I want to kill you!"

Zhou Chongyue snorted disdainfully: "Oh, it's just you?"

He grabbed Guo Mang's neck and lifted Guo Mang up high.

Guo Mang's martial arts is not bad, but he has been hungry for three days. How can he be Zhou Chongyue's opponent?

Just when Zhou Chongyue was about to twist his neck, a sharp eagle roar suddenly came from the vast sky.

With a terrifying murderous intent, even the flying snow in the sky seemed to have stopped for a second.

Zhou Chongyue frowned.

The next second, a mighty flying eagle spread its wings covered with wind and snow and swooped down.

"ah-"

A shrill scream burst out from the crowd, as if someone's eyeballs had been pecked out by the eagle!

Zhou Chongyue turned to look at the archer who was covering his right eye and rolling on the ground. He frowned fiercely, threw away Guo Mang in his hand, stepped forward and snatched an archer's bow, pulled out the bowstring, and aimed it. That eagle!

However, before the arrow in his hand could be completely shot, a murderous red-tasseled spear came from the sky and shot through Zhou Chongyue's shoulder!

Zhou Chongyue was caught off guard and knocked to the ground by the terrifying force. His eyes widened in disbelief.

In the snow that was flying all over the sky, I saw a young man wearing silver armor riding a horse also wearing silver armor through the snow. At his young and immature age, he had such a pair of firm and cold eyes.

Thousands of troops and horses could not stop him. He tightened the reins as if he were in no one's land, and the red cloak on his silver armor flew up behind him.

A massive barrage of arrows were shot at him, but there was no trace of fear in his eyes.

Zhou Chongyue frowned unconsciously as he looked at this wolf boy who exuded endless blood.

You thought the person who attacked you was a powerful master, but it turned out to be a child?

how old is he?

Is there any thirteen?

He actually shot himself?

It must have been that I was careless, and luckily he succeeded!

He doesn't care if he is a child or not, if he hurts him, he must pay the price!

He's going to rip his head off!

Zhou Chongyue gritted his teeth and pulled out the red tassel gun on his shoulder.

What surprised him was that this gun was much heavier than any red-tasseled gun he had ever held!

He couldn't help but wonder what kind of gun it was.

He turned his head and glanced.

Fuck!

So ugly!

Zhou Chongyue was so ugly that he was covered with red flowers and a red tassel gun with big red braids.

In just such a moment, the young man had galvanized his horse to break through the siege of archers and came to him.

The young man whipped him over and rolled back the red tassel gun.

Then the young man's war horse raised its high hoofs and ruthlessly stepped back on Zhou Chongyue who was about to get up to attack!

Zhou Chongyue immediately vomited out a mouthful of blood!

The young man held a red tassel gun and put it coldly between his eyebrows.

Zhou Chongyue looked at the gleaming gun head in front of him, and his body froze. It was unbelievable that he, who had never been defeated, was unable to fight back in the hands of the young man!

He raised his head and looked at the cold and young boy on the horse. The boy had an alluring face.

But his eyes were so cold and full of murderous intent.

He asked in a trembling voice: "You...who are you?"

The young man said word by word: "Black Wind Rider, Xuanyuan Xi!"

Xuanyuanxi is the name of Jingkong, do you still remember?
