Puppet emperor? Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

Chapter 587 Night Attack

Time passed little by little.

The army of Daqian Kingdom outside the city had already made preparations.

All morning long, the war drums continued to sound.

This made the people of the Daxuan Dynasty, who had already been nervous all night, even more nervous.

They originally wanted to rest, but it was impossible to rest well under such circumstances.

Listening to the war drums outside, no one dared to relax, for fear that they would be attacked by the people from the Daqian Kingdom if they were not paying attention.

This situation continued until the evening.

At this time, the faces of many generals of the Daxuan Dynasty became somewhat ugly.

One person said with an unpleasant expression:

"What do those people in Daqian State want to do? Do they want to tire out our manpower?

If that's what they thought, then we have to say they did it.

If this continues for a few more days, our people will probably have a mental breakdown."

Regarding the current situation.

They were all very helpless.

It is impossible to let them let down their guard. After all, the situation they are facing now is indeed very dangerous. The strength of the Daqian Kingdom is very small, but Xue Rengui's power makes them extremely vigilant.

However, they also knew that they couldn't remain tense for such a long time because of the other party's methods.

If this continues, they will collapse on their own sooner or later.

The general of the Daxuan Dynasty said:

"Let the brothers hold on for another night, and arrange for others to rest in batches. Also, keep a close eye on those from the Yunhai Dynasty.

If they dare to cause any problems, we will do it immediately.”

After hearing his words, the others could only feel helpless. They had no choice but to do this at this time. If they didn't, the entire army would probably collapse in a short period of time.

At the same time, they are clearer in their hearts.

Such an approach is only a temporary solution for them, after all, the current situation is not such a simple problem.

On the one hand, they now have to worry about whether there will be a surprise attack on them from outside the city.

On the other hand, they also need to worry about whether people from the Yunhai Dynasty will launch a sneak attack on them at night.

Coupled with the incessant beating of drums outside the city, it was impossible for them to relax.

A large number of people were tied up because of this.

After such a long time, many people are exhausted to the extreme.

So they couldn't hold on for long.

In the blink of an eye, a night has passed.

Everything remains calm.

It seemed as if the attack horn outside the city had never sounded.

Or rather, it never stopped.

At the beginning, they were worried that the Great Qian Kingdom would take the opportunity to attack them.

But after so much time, they have long since let go of this idea.

Even if they heard the charge, they didn't care at all.

They had already believed in their minds that it was impossible for the Great Qian Kingdom to launch an attack, and this was just a tactic of fatigue on the part of the Great Qian Kingdom.

It's not just his men that are so strong.

The general of the Daxuan Dynasty thought the same. He immediately gathered some people and said:

“I need someone to find a way out of the city and get news from outside.

Judging from the current situation, Xue Rengui may have left us and gone to other places. If that is the case, then there is no point in us waiting here. The army outside may be just a show-off army."

When he said this, his eyes were filled with worry.

There should be quite a lot of manpower outside.

But that doesn't mean anything.

In the war between the superior nations, a strong man can play a much greater role than imagined.

If Xue Rengui left here, even if he only had 100,000 men, he could easily carve down a city that looked very solid.

So he had to prevent Xue Rengui from leaving.

If Xue Rengui really left, then he would have to send troops.

While Xue Rengui was away, they defeated the Daqian army outside.

By then, no matter what Xue Rengui did, they would have enough bargaining chips in their hands and they would not need to worry about anything anymore.

However, after hearing the plan of the general of the Daxuan Dynasty, everyone couldn't help but droop their eyelids.

The danger of this mission can be imagined.

No one wanted to go out at all.

The general could tell what they were thinking at a glance.

Then he took a deep breath and said:

“Guys, I know you are very worried.

If any general is willing to go, I will certainly praise him highly in front of the Holy King and give him the first credit.

And the current situation is very clear.

There is a high chance that Xue Rengui is not around.

Therefore, the general who went out only had to face the large army outside the city.

Without Xue Rengui, the army outside is very elite, but I don't think it will pose a big threat to you all."

After hearing his explanations for a long time, someone finally stood up and said:

"General, I'm willing to go out and give it a try!"

Hearing his words, the generals of the Daxuan Dynasty were overjoyed.

"it is good!"

he yelled.

"I will give you 5,000 elite soldiers, all of whom are good fighters in the army. You try to break through and charge. Once Xue Rengui appears, I will allow you to return immediately.

Even if you are the only one who comes back alive, I will not consider you a deserter.

If Xue Rengui is not here, then you continue to try to break out.

Fight them for half an hour. If you can't break through, then come back."

What he said was very clear.

His main purpose this time was to find out whether Xue Rengui was in the army.

For this reason, even five thousand elite soldiers are nothing to him.

A half-hour battle, plus the bait of a third-rank national scholar.

If Xue Rengui were here, he would have shown up anyway.

But if Xue Rengui was not there.

Then he should prepare for an attack with his entire army.

"Yes!"

The general responded.

It didn't take long before he was ready, holding an iron spear, wearing chain mail, and riding a dragon horse.

This kind of dragon horse is nothing to their Daxuan Dynasty.

It can be considered a very common mount.

However, due to the different purity of their bloodlines, their powers also vary greatly.

Not only the Daxuan Dynasty, but many generals of the Daqian Kingdom were also equipped with the same mounts.

However, most of these mounts only possess the strength of low-level state warriors in battles with the top three state warriors.

They do little to nothing.

But it is enough for the charge.

The city gate creaked open. Seeing this, the general immediately led his troops out with his spear in hand.

However, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty stood on the city wall and watched the situation below.

He clasped his hands on the wall.

Because I was too nervous.

He accidentally crushed the hard bricks and stones.

Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but laugh.

I have been a general for so many years and have witnessed countless bloody battles.

Unexpectedly, when facing the Great Qian Kingdom, he once again found himself in the same predicament as when he first joined the army.

He was actually a little scared.

But he soon calmed down.

Although Xue Rengui is very strong, he is not a weakling either.

Even though his strength is not as good as Xue Rengui's, their overall strength is definitely above that of the Daqian Kingdom.

It's just because of Xue Rengui's existence that he didn't dare to send troops easily.

After seeing the general rushing out.

As expected, the people from Daqian Kingdom rushed out quickly.

A large number of cavalry rushed towards the enemy.

Countless arrows fell like rain.

In a short time, the 5,000 troops suffered considerable losses.

Seeing this situation, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty was furious.

After all, he is an eighth-rank national scholar, and has reached the peak of the eighth rank.

It is precisely because of this strength that he dares to stand up.

Without any hesitation, he charged directly towards the army of the Daqian Kingdom.

The moment the two sides came into contact, he immediately started killing everyone on both sides.

With his methods, it is not easy to defeat these people from the Daqian Kingdom.

Immediately, many state-owned talents surrounded him.

The strength of these national heroes is not weak, and some are at the top third grade level.

For a moment, he was unable to move his hands and feet.

But he soon realized that Xue Rengui did not show up!

After thinking about this, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

If Xue Rengui had not appeared, that would have been the best outcome for him.

Otherwise, he could only run for his life.

However, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty ordered him to fight here for half an hour.

So even though the soldiers behind him suffered heavy losses, he had no intention of retreating at all.

At this time, we must not be soft-hearted.

As a general on the battlefield, he was well aware of this.

And on the top of the city wall, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty witnessed it all with his own eyes.

"No, Xue Rengui is not here!"

There was a gleam in his eyes.

The current situation is much better than he imagined.

Now that they have found out that Xue Rengui is not here, it means that if they launch a counterattack against the army outside the city, these troops outside the city may not be able to withstand their attack.

But he was not in a hurry.

Now is not the time.

After fighting for nearly half an hour, the eighth-rank national scholar finally began to retreat.

He was covered in blood.

It already had a lot of injuries on its body. If it delayed a little longer, it would most likely be killed by the other party.

Although Xue Rengui is no longer here.

However, there are other top three-rank national figures in the Great Qian Kingdom.

However, these people were generals from other dynasties, and they eventually chose to defect to the Great Qian Kingdom.

Their strength is considered average among their peers.

But for Xue Rengui, it was enough.

After Xue Rengui heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Everything was just as he had imagined.

Next, let’s look at the evening.

As the sky gradually darkened, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty summoned a number of generals.

This even includes Cheng Peng from the Yunhai Dynasty.

"Everyone, the critical moment has arrived."

He looked at the people in front of him, and then looked at Cheng Peng again.

Then he spoke softly:

"We can now confirm that Xue Rengui is no longer outside our city, so the Daqian Shangguo troops outside the city may seem to be numerous, but they are just a mob without a strong enough leader.

Tonight is the key.

I am planning to launch a night attack tonight. You will lead your troops to participate in this operation.

Yunhai Dynasty Cheng Peng, I hope you can also join this operation."

After hearing his request, Yunhai Dynasty Cheng Peng showed some helplessness on his face, and then said:

"General, it's not that we don't want to, but you should be very familiar with the current situation of our Yunhai Dynasty.

My injuries have not yet healed, and the soldiers under my command were badly hit in the previous battle.

I hope we can have a few days to rest.”

Hearing his words, the general of the Great Xuan Dynasty did not show any change in expression. He just smiled and said:

"Of course I understand your situation, but this battle is indeed very critical to us. How about this, you can send 30,000 people to participate in this attack.

But I hope you can go there yourself, because only in this way can your men have enough confidence. "

That's nice to say.

However, Cheng Peng of Yunhai Dynasty knew very well that what he said was nothing more than trying to use him as a hostage.

It was obvious that he was worried that if he stayed in the city, with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, he might pose a certain threat to the city.

But the other party doesn't know.

Cheng Peng of Yunhai Dynasty also thought so.

Because he never had the power to lead this group of people.

But in the hands of Xue Rengui.

In addition, with myself involved in this night attack, and the addition of 30,000 troops, it is very likely that I can turn against them at the critical moment.

His eyes flashed a cold light when no one could see.

That was naked murderous intent.

If it weren't for these people from the Daxuan Dynasty, how could they have suffered such huge losses, and how could they have surrendered to the Daqian Kingdom under desperation.

Everything that follows is for revenge!

All these costs are what the Daxuan Dynasty deserves.

Therefore, there was no regret or hesitation in his heart at all.

"In that case, I'll take it. I promise to send our best soldiers to participate in this attack."

After getting the answer from Cheng Peng of the Yunhai Dynasty, the general of the Daxuan Dynasty smiled happily.

“I will recommend you for merit when I come back. Not only that, our Daxuan Dynasty will never mistreat any dynasty that fights for us.

I believe that this time, you will definitely get the reward you deserve.”

Yunhai Dynasty Cheng Peng nodded.

Maybe……

But he had long stopped believing in these things.
