Western Xinjiang, Magic Mountain Pass.

Shen Leng and Han Zhaozhi chatted for a long time, because there were only the two of them, Han Zhaozhi's words were obvious, and he didn't hide them as before, Shen Leng knew that Han Zhaozhi's performance was not because of him, but because of the second prince.

If nothing else, the crown prince will inevitably be deposed, whether it is exile or not, there is basically no obstacle for the second prince to become the crown prince after returning from the western frontier this time, and it is precisely because he is sure that these Han Zhaozhi will not have so many scruples in the past, he is sure that Shen Leng will not fight for anything, and he is sure that Shen Leng cares about the second prince, so he will say it very plainly and sincerely.

If the crown prince is still the crown prince, and the second prince is still the second prince, many Han Zhaozhi still won't say it.

The second prince becoming the crown prince is the situation that everyone wants to see, including Shen Leng himself, he really likes the second prince.

After leaving, Shen Leng did not return to his residence but climbed the city wall again, it was already late at night, but the soldiers on the city wall did not have a slack slack, the soldiers on duty kept staring at the outside of the city on the city wall, and every once in a while there would be rockets shot out to illuminate the night of the land of an arrow.

The second prince said that he would find a way to spread the news to let the rest people know that the prince of Daning was here, so that the rest people would inevitably withdraw the Lou Ran people and replace them with them to attack, if they wanted to fight quickly, the idea of the second prince was naturally good, there were tens of thousands of Daning border troops in Shen Leng, and of course the second prince would not really be in danger, but Shen Leng did not agree at that time, because he was still waiting for the news from La Liga City.

The decisive battle of this big war is not here, and the main force of the rest people is not here, what we have to see is how to fight on the general's side.

"Report!"

A shout tore through the silent night.

The herald ran up from under the city, dusty, tired but still running fast, he had come from La Liga City.

"The Great General"

The herald knelt down on one knee: "General Tan asked me to summon the general, the army of La Jia City has been killed out of the city, and the three formations of the Western Regions Alliance Army were broken that day, killing tens of thousands of enemies, and the army has attacked to the west, but I found that the army of Houque State is not outside La Jia City, so General Tan asked me to rush to inform the general that all the troops of Hou Que State should have come here." ”

Shen Leng nodded, this is expected, it seems that the letter he asked Modio to send back Modio really did not disappoint him, and Urdun, the prime minister of the Later Que Kingdom, learned that his only son Que Yue was born on Shen Leng's side, where was he still in the mood to continue to attack La Liga City.

This is the situation that Shen Leng hopes to see, the countries of the Western Regions, the army of the Houque State is relatively capable of fighting, second only to Tubo, far stronger than Lou Ran, if all the troops of the Houque State can be mobilized to the side of Tubo, the decisive battle of the general will be much easier to fight.

"How's the battle going?"

"Back to the general, the army is divided into three ways to attack, General Tan sits in the middle army, and all three roads break the Western Regions coalition army, especially the left army, with hundreds of elite youth battalions as arrows, and break through the camp of the Western Regions people in only one hour."

"Junior camp?"

Shen Leng had never heard of this number.

"Hundreds of martial arts disciples came from the Chang'an City Martial Academy, forming a junior battalion of the Martial Academy, charging forward, brave and fearless."

The herald said: "Everywhere he went, the enemy was terrified. ”

The corners of Shen Leng's mouth raised slightly, Daning's army will never have a successor, these young people of the Martial Academy will really mature after this battle, and after a battle, it will be more useful than their two years of study in the Martial Academy.

"General Shi is here too?"

"General Shi

Didn't come. ”

Shen Leng nodded: "It's good that you didn't come, otherwise it would be too much to give face to the people of the Western Regions." ”

A war, bringing together the three generals of Daning, is indeed too much face for the people of the Western Regions.

"You go to rest and recover your strength first, don't rush back, tomorrow I will tell you what to report to General Tan."

When the herald heard this, his heart warmed, but he was in a hurry to go back to his life: "I'm fine, I can rush back overnight." ”

"You're okay, I won't say it."

Shen Leng looked at his own soldiers: "Arrange a place for him to live, no one is allowed to disturb him." ”

The soldier immediately bowed his head in response, and the herald's heart was warm, as if there was no cold wind in the greenhouse at this moment, he had always heard that the general Shen Leng was outrageously good to his soldiers, and he knew that those rumors must be true for this little thing.

"Let's go and rest first."

Shen Leng patted the herald on the shoulder, the soldier gave a military salute and followed Shen Leng's personal soldiers down the city, Shen Leng turned to look outside the city, if the army of Houque Kingdom also came, then he involved at least six or seven hundred thousand troops, maybe more, so that there are about half of the enemies here, and the countermeasures he discussed with Kyushu before were completely successful, although the people of the Western Regions are not afraid of too many troops, if they do not disperse the enemy, it will not be easy to fight.

"Martial Arts Youth Camp."

Shen sneered and said to himself, "This name is good." ”

At this moment, a row of rockets flew out, drawing a beautiful arc in mid-air, and the rockets burned from the city wall to the outside of the city wall, and the arc was like a meteor with the same trajectory.

"Enemy attack!"

A hoarse shout rang out, followed by the sound of a trumpet.

Before the rocket landed, a faint light shone on a dark shadow outside the city, and the dense crowd of resting people had already come up, they must have wrapped their shoes with something, and tried their best to move forward with the lightest steps, so they had reached the place outside the city wall and were not yet noticed.

"Arrows!"

The general on duty shouted, and the soldiers of the Ning army on the city wall gathered in the shortest time, and the feather arrows shot out of the city intensively, while the soldiers who controlled the bed crossbow adjusted the angle, and the drizzle-like feather arrows were mixed with thick heavy crossbow arrows one by one, like hundreds of long dragons among thousands of fish.

Immediately there was a wail outside the city, and the enemy, who was already approaching the city walls, quickly fell down one floor.

Bang!

Somewhere on the city wall, there was a sudden loud noise, followed by a shout, Shen Leng immediately looked sideways, a huge stone smashed on the battlements, the stone knocked the battlements off directly, several Ning soldiers standing near there were stoned to death, two people were directly smashed by the big stone below, and one was hit by the falling battlements and broke his head, and even the helmet was suffocated.

"Watch out for the rock-throwing truck!"

Someone shouted, but it was impossible to tell where the boulder would fall on such a night.

"Tie up the powder bag and shoot out!"

Shen Leng shouted loudly, and he strode on the city wall: "Keep your body as low as possible!" ”

Soon after, wooden guns with gunpowder bags tied to them were sent out by bed crossbows, these wooden guns were far less stable than heavy crossbow arrows, because the barrels were too flexible, so they would deviate from the course after being shot, but this attack was not the same effect as the heavy crossbow attack, and the shaking wooden guns flew out, some exploded in the crowd on the ground, and some exploded in mid-air.

There are countless clusters of arrows in each powder bag, and the power of the explosion can be imagined, even with the help of the fire of the explosion

I could see the enemy outside the city more clearly, and as a loud bang exploded outside the city, the enemy's wails were also connected.

"Help me!"

An Rest Man was hit in the face by an arrow, the arrow did not hit the eye but pierced his cheekbone and stuck under the eye socket, he didn't know what was wrong with him, he had the illusion that his head had been pierced, and half of the arrow cluster was exposed in the bloody hole on his face, which made people feel creepy to look at.

He pulled a companion to ask for help, and the companion was pulled by him to turn around, and then he saw that his companion's two hands were holding his neck, and the blood was flowing out one by one, and an arrow cluster had pierced the neck of the resting soldier, and the man was still alive, and the horror in his eyes was stronger than that of the resting man who hit him in the face, but he could not utter a word.

The man with the arrows on his face let go of his hand, and his companion fell, his body still twitching involuntarily, and he stumbled forward hoping that someone would help him, and then he saw a fire explode in the sky in front of him, and countless black dots shot out in the fire, and in that moment, all the people under the fire were all staggering.

He was still subconsciously shouting for help, and a bloodied man on the other side also shouted for help and rushed towards him.

On the city wall, another boulder fell, several Daning soldiers were knocked down, some people's legs were pressed by the big stone and couldn't pull out, the comrades around him rushed over and struggled to carry the stone on their shoulders to move away, several people's eyes were blood-red, roaring to push away the stone, but at this time, a black shadow fell from mid-air, and it was extremely accurate and smashed on the big stone just now, with a loud noise, the soldier who was pressed by the stone shouted in pain, and a stream of blood squirted out from under the stone, as well as internal organs.

Some of the soldiers who tried to save him were pressed under the stone, with half of their face exposed, and the other half under the stone, because the squeezing had distorted even the exposed half of their face, and their eyes seemed to be squeezed out.

Bang!

A bed crossbow was smashed to pieces, several soldiers standing next to the bed crossbow all fell, one soldier struggled to stand up immediately, but found that he suddenly had no strength, when he looked down, he found that an arm-thick wood pierced his stomach, he struggled to turn back, but he couldn't see that the wood had been pierced from behind, the person quickly lost his life, he died half-squatting, unable to stand up again.

Those outside the city are dying, and those who are in the city are dying.

Whew, behind the mountain pass, the Daning soldiers' stone-throwing cart threw the gunpowder bag out, the gunpowder bag the size of a grinding disc flew over the head of the defenders of the city wall, and soon fell into the enemy's ranks, it should not have calculated the time so the gunpowder bag failed to explode, two resting people were smashed by the gunpowder bag below, one was directly smashed and fainted, and the other shouted in horror to pull out, he just struggled out and just congratulated himself on his luck, but saw a spark flickering on the thing in front of him, and then the fire exploded in front of him.

Such a large gunpowder bag exploded, and countless arrows and stones inside burst out, and there was a miserable cry within a radius of dozens of meters.

Behind the army of resting people, the face of the abandoned Nie who was holding clairvoyance and looking at the battlefield in the distance became more and more ugly, and his hands holding clairvoyance were trembling slightly.

"That's a firearm?"

"Yes."

Ohno Ken, who was standing beside him, had a calm face: "That is the firearm of the Ning people, I told you, the future war must be a war of firearms, whoever has a more powerful firearm will have a greater chance of winning, and the way you rest in peace will become history." ”

He looked at the firelight in the distance and shook his head: "That's the Heavenly Grace Ning people." ”
