"General…"
Several cavalrymen of the Northern Desert shouted and pointed their spears at Wei Wentong, who was not far away, to prevent him from attacking Xie Yingdeng again.
Wei Wentong's beautiful beard stroked as he rode his horse forward, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand flying out. Wei Wentong used all his strength in this move because he knew that if he didn't force the Northern Desert Cavalry to retreat, Liu Yu might be able to turn the tide again.
Actually, Wei Wentong didn't understand. Liu Yu had always been known for being cunning and cunning, but this time, he didn't use any tricks. It was completely a head-on approach.
Kacha!
The Green Dragon Crescent Blade flew past and broke several spears of the Northern Desert cavalrymen. However, the cavalrymen didn't retreat. Instead, they took out two white lanterns from their waists and threw them over.
Looking at the white lanterns flying towards him, Wei Wentong did not avoid them. Instead, he smiled and rode his horse to stand on the spot. In Wei Wentong's mind, the white lantern was Liu Yu's despicable trick in the past. It was filled with iron fans and white noodles. If it was broken, the result could be imagined.
Bang ~~~
"Ah ~~~"
After the white lantern hit Wei Wentong, Wei Wentong did not feel the cotton sensation. Instead, he felt a stinging pain on his face. He immediately understood that he had been tricked.
Logically speaking, the white lantern was filled with white flour, but now it was replaced with a hidden weapon similar to a spiked club. In other words, Liu Yu had long guessed that he would come to attack the south of the city. Wei Wentong broke out in cold sweat.
However, Wei Wentong's reaction was still too late. The ground of the city gate suddenly caved in, and Wei Wentong, along with the Northern Desert cavalrymen and a large number of Sui soldiers, fell down at the same time.
After landing, Wei Wentong realized that the deep pit was filled with kerosene and good medicine, and he had fallen into the kerosene tank. The strong smell of oil shocked Wei Wentong.
The ten-meter deep pit separated the Northern Desert cavalrymen and Sui Bing. Xie Yingdeng endured the numbness and pain in his body and came to the side of the pit."How does Admiral Wei feel?"
"You despicable scoundrels, how dare you plot against me ~~~"
Hahaha, Xie Yingdeng laughed." Marshal Wei, you should be content. In order to trick us into a trap, my lord used the lives of 60,000 brothers to fight you head-on. Countless brothers died and injured. It's time to pay back this debt."”
Wei Wentong was so angry that his nose was almost crooked. However, he admired Liu Yu's methods. He dug a huge pit that was more than ten meters deep outside the southern gate and then used the southern gate as the weak point of the attack. When the battle continued to heat up, he sent a large number of high-ranking generals to attract the enemy's attention.
At this moment, everyone could feel that the Northern Desert was at the end of its rope. Of course, they wouldn't have any other thoughts about the Northern Desert Army's desperate resistance. Enemies without wariness were also the easiest to fall for.
Xie Yingdeng smiled and said,"Someone, bring me a torch!"”
Seeing himself covered in kerosene, Wei Wentong felt a chill run down his spine. However, Wei Wentong did not want to die. Under the two-way distortion of his heart and thoughts, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand was stabbed into the wall. Fortunately, in order to prevent the kerosene from seeping through, the ground and walls of this deep pit were all made of green bricks.
After the Green Dragon Crescent Blade was inserted, Wei Wentong kicked away a few Northern Desert Army soldiers at the bottom of the pit. Then, he bent his hands and shot out like a cannonball.
Xie Yingdeng, who was holding a torch, didn't throw it down. Suddenly, he found a black shadow flying from below. Xie Yingdeng, who didn't have time to think, threw the torch in his hand.
Whoosh!
Now that he saw something with fire, Wei Wentong was a little afraid, not to mention a flame as big as a torch. However, Wei Wentong, who was in the air, gritted his teeth and kicked the torch back.
The tips of his toes were already stained with kerosene, and with just a slight heat, a flame instantly engulfed Wei Wentong's entire body.
At this moment, Wei Wentong landed on the ground. After rolling back and forth on the ground dozens of times, the flames on Wei Wentong's body were extinguished. Although the flames were extinguished, Wei Wentong also suffered a serious burn.
"Retreat ~"
Soon, the Sui soldiers gave the order to retreat. Of course, they did not retreat to Yanmen Pass, but to set up camp five miles away. After another fierce battle, the Northern Desert Army in Dali City had been reduced to 20,000 men.
On the city wall, the red scarf around Liu Yu's neck fluttered back and forth in the breeze. The podao in his hand had long been curled up, and the blue and white armor had long been dyed red.
Looking at the retreating Sui soldiers like ants, Liu Yu sighed helplessly,""The heavens don't bless me ~~~"
Xie Yingdeng appeared behind Liu Yu and said,""Your Majesty, although Wei Wentong is not dead, he is heavily injured.”
Liu Yu shook his head and said," I don't think much of Wei Wentong. What I'm really interested in is these hundreds of thousands of Sui soldiers. Have you realized that the combat strength of the Sui soldiers is far above ours? Logically speaking, they only have three times more people than us, but they give me ten times more pressure.”
Hou Junji and Shan Xiongxin both sighed."The soldiers of the Sui Dynasty are elite, but we are also training our soldiers. Only the soldiers who survive the cruel battlefield can be considered as the survival of the fittest.”
"And isn't His Highness doing the same? On the surface, it looks like His Highness is risking his life to defend the city, but in reality, His Highness is training a truly ferocious army.”
Liu Yu shook his head and smiled." Soldiers are always those who have been on the battlefield and experienced bloody battles. Only those who have experienced bloody battles can be worthy of great responsibilities."
The Sui Army Camp!
"Ah ~~~"
An earth-shaking scream came from the main tent. Countless doctors and servants came in and out. Several Sui generals walked back and forth, their faces full of worry.
"Report ~~~"
"Generals, the Northern Desert Army has rebuilt Dali City. The number of soldiers needed in the city has been reduced to 60 - 70%." A scout from the Sui Army appeared.”
Zuo Tianqi said," Liu Yu is too cunning. We can't give in. We should surround Dali City again. If it doesn't work, we can build another city wall outside Dali City."”
If Wei Zheng, Li Jing, Xu Maogong, and the others heard this, they would definitely give him a thumbs up. This was because this move was too vicious. In the short term, it was indeed nothing, but in the long term, it could trap the entire Dali City to death.
Who knew that Sui Jiang's voice would be unified." You know that Liu Yu is too sinister and cunning. Why did you touch his bad luck for no reason? Isn't this courting death?"”
Zuo Tianqi was so angry that he snorted, but he was helpless. He simply flung his sleeves and turned around to walk into Wei Wentong's camp.
Seeing Zuo Tianqi leave, the Sui Generals looked at each other and snorted at the same time,""You want to die, but you want to drag us along?”
