In the northern camp at Ling Jiu Mountain, Ye Li sat calmly in her tent and browsed through the battle reports and memorials sent in from various places. A few days ago, Helian Peng had suffered a few small losses at their hands and did not come to challenge them again. The two armies were at peace, but Mo Xiuyao's side had fought two battles and completely suppressed the Northern Tribes army's arrogance. This caused the soldiers under Ye Li and Lu Jinxian to become restless.
Lu Jinxian's side was still fine, but Ye Li's side still had to guard against Lei Zhenting's troops at the rear and could not act rashly. This caused the eyes of the soldiers to turn red as they listened to the reports sent in every day.
"Princess, General Zhou, General Sun, General He and the others request an audience." Qin Feng came in and reported with a smile. Ye Li put down the battle reports in her hands and smiled, "They're here to ask for battle again?" Qin Feng nodded and smiled, "These days, we've been guarding and not coming out. They must be bored." Ye Li thought and said, "Let them in."
"This subordinate obeys." Hearing Ye Li's words, even Qin Feng's eyes lit up. Even though he could not personally charge onto the battlefield, he could still drink some soup when others ate meat. The generals were not the only ones who were suffocated.
After a while, He Su, Zhou Min and the others filed in and bowed to Ye Li, "Greetings to Princess."
Ye Li smiled and said, "There's no need to be so courteous. Generals, why are you here instead of staying in your respective camps?" Sun Yaowu was the first to speak, "Reporting to the Princess, this subordinate requests for battle!"
Ye Li raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a smile but did not speak. Sun Yaowu was in awe of this young Princess Ye Li. Being looked at like this, he felt embarrassed and said uneasily, "Princess, we've been guarding here and watching others fight. It's really frustrating. Wouldn't that affect the morale of the soldiers? "
Ye Li nodded and said, "That makes sense. What do you think? "
Hearing this, the eyes of all the generals present lit up. Sun Yaowu smiled and said, "This subordinate is willing to be the vanguard and take down Luo State City while they are unprepared!" He Su and Zhoumin had known him for some time, and they knew that the loss of Luo State City was a sore point in his heart, so they didn't try to snatch the credit from him. He Su said in a low voice, "This subordinate is willing to hold the line for General Sun."
Zhou Min also smiled. "This subordinate is willing to guard Spirit Vulture Mountain." Spirit Vulture Mountain definitely needed someone to guard it. Zhou Min was not in a hurry. As long as the battle started, would there be a lack of battles to fight?
"You guys are of one mind."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, they all looked at Ye Li. Ye Li tapped her index finger on the table a few times. She pondered for a moment and said, "Send me your plan first."
The three of them were overjoyed and said in unison, "This subordinate obeys! This subordinate will take his leave! "After saying that, they rushed out the door to gather the troops without waiting for Ye Li's signal. Ye Li and the other two's figures disappeared from the door of the tent. She couldn't help but shake her head with a smile. Then, she instructed Qin Feng behind her, "Let Qi Lin prepare. Since we are going to take down Luo State City, there cannot be any mistakes. That Helian Peng is also not easy to deal with. "
Qin Feng replied, "This subordinate obeys."
Luo State City was not very eye-catching in the entire Da Chu State. It was not a stronghold located at the border, nor was it a famous city in Da Chu State. However, it had a rather troublesome aspect. Normal cities were easy to defend and hard to attack, but Luo State City was easy to attack and hard to defend. Because it was quite far from the border, although the Northern Tribes had repeatedly invaded the border, they had never truly broken through the border. As a result, although the cities near the border were built to be impregnable, this unremarkable Luo Zhou City was barely able to build a city wall. It was as good as not having a city wall.
The Northern Tribes army could even break through the border cities, so a mere Luo State City was naturally nothing to them. Hence, when Luo State fell, Sun Yaowu could not be blamed for not being able to defend the city. Even if Sun Yaowu was the reincarnation of Sun Wu, and Bai Qi was reborn, they would only be defeated.
When the Mohist army deployed their troops, although Luo State City was very close to Spirit Vulture Mountain, the Mohist army did not have enough troops. Furthermore, Luo State City was easy to attack and hard to defend. Taking it down was not difficult, but defending it was extremely difficult. In the end, they could only be caught in a tug of war with the Northern Tribes army. Hence, the Mohist army did not bother about him. The reason why Ye Li agreed to Sun Yaowu's request was because Mo Xiuyao had already pushed the Northern Tribes army back. They naturally had to cooperate to chase Helian Peng's army out. As for how they would defend Luo State City after taking it down, the Mohist army was not the same as the Da Chu State army. Even if Helian Peng wanted to snatch it from them, he would have to see if it was worth it.
Luo State City was not a good place to station troops. Helian Peng's army was naturally not stationed in Luo State City, but only a portion of them. Under the night sky, the entire city was silent, with only the occasional flicker of light. In these two years, the people in the north had either died or fled. It could be said that less than 10% of them were still alive. Although it was not too late, Luo State City was already immersed in darkness.
Under the cover of the night, a group of men in black neatly climbed up the non-existent city wall and quickly disappeared into the night. In a secluded place not far from Luo State City, Sun Yaowu was pacing back and forth anxiously under the night sky of the city. Qin Feng, who was standing beside him, leaned lazily against a tree and smiled, "General Sun, what are you doing?"
Sun Yaowu frowned, "If we hide here, what if they alert the guards of Luo State City and attract the reinforcements of the Northern Tribes? Wouldn't all our efforts be for naught?"
Qin Feng smiled, "General Sun, don't worry. If it was Glass City, Chu Capital, or Lei Zhenting, we might have to be more careful. In a place like Luo State City, if they could alert the guards, they would not be able to survive. "
Although Sun Yaowu had long heard of Qi Lin's reputation, he had never seen it for himself. He asked suspiciously, "Commander Qin, are you that confident?" Qin Feng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Of course. If my subordinates can't even have confidence in them, who can trust them? General Sun, don't you also believe in your subordinates? "
Sun Yaowu smiled, "That's true. I would also like to see how powerful the Qi Lin of the Mohist army is. "
Qin Feng smiled, "General Sun, just wait and see."
In less than half an hour, Luo State City was filled with green signal fireworks. Sun Yaowu was stunned, "That's it?" Qin Feng smiled, "General Sun, please." When Sun Yaowu arrived at Luo State City with his troops, he saw that the city gates were open and the city was in a state of chaos. However, there were only a few Northern Tribes soldiers who could mount the city walls to defend against their attack. In less than an hour, they had already taken down Luo State City. When Sun Yaowu stood on the city walls again, he was still in a daze.
If Luo State City could be taken down so easily, what was he thinking about for the past two years?
