“It’s really hopeless.”

Qi Zhuji shook his head, but instead smiled, "Sometimes I have to admire the King of Zhongshan. Even if I lose, I have nothing to say."

Lin Yi could understand his mood at this moment.

These 30,000 are just vanguard troops, so the central army in the rear will definitely not be less than 30,000, or at least 60,000.

Such an army is huge no matter where and at any time, but such an army has not appeared in any military information before.

Such a huge army had been in the Southern Dynasty for so long, and just avoiding all large-scale battles and quietly arrived here, it was enough to show the power of the high-level generals of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"I'm desperate, too."

Lin Yi looked at the dark cloud-like dust swelling in the wilderness. He did not deliberately lower his voice and said, "But when he comes here, you can't just run away like this."

Of course, his words were not considered a formal oath of the general, but because his tone was very calm and the power he had shown before, many Southern Dynasties soldiers who had already had blank brains and had no fighting spirit were gradually calmed down.

...

The first thing that appeared in the eyes of ordinary soldiers under the dark clouds was the Northern Wei Light Cavalry Army, which was like a tide.

The light cavalry of the Southern Dynasty generally had soft armor, and their cavalry uniforms were narrow-sleeved, and their bodies were tightly tied. However, the cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty had wide-sleeved, which was obviously not conducive to combat, but they were always used to it.

This is also one of the prominent signs that distinguishes the Southern Dynasty and Northern Wei troops from the distance.

Another point is that many cavalrymen in the Northern Wei Dynasty were unwilling to wear helmets. If the number of people was small, they would look like a mob like a horse thief from a distance. However, when the number of people was large, they would not have such a feeling, but instead gave people a sense of barbarity and courage.

The Northern Wei light cavalry, who were walking in the forefront, all looked at black clothes and black breastplate. They did not pay attention to formation and ran scattered in the wilderness. It was roughly estimated to be 4,000, but because of the scatteredness, the number of people seemed to be more.

There were obviously some heavy riders behind the light cavalry, but these heavy riders were not armed. Both the heavy armor on horses and the riders on the saddle were dragged on the chariots behind.

Behind these chariots, there were at least 20,000 infantry and a few cavalry and chariots mixed together.

Some carriages that look inconsistent with the murderous atmosphere and the chariots that look particularly luxurious, like some lotus flowers that are ahead of the season in the pond in early summer, dotted them, but give the Southern Dynasties soldiers on the wall a sense of danger.

There are no flags or any significant marks, so the origin of this Northern Wei army is still impossible to determine, but it is certain that this is definitely not a temporary local army drawn by the Northern Wei, but more like a coalition of regular border troops and some private armies of the clan.

Regular border troops have a certain proportion of practitioners, and the proportion of practitioners in the private armies of the clan may be higher.

At this time, the proportion of those chariots that obviously do not belong to the border army was obviously larger.

Among them was a chariot that looked particularly wide, and there was a burly Northern Wei general sitting on it.

This Northern Wei general had a square face, his eyebrows were as dark as ink, and his eyes were slightly closed and he shot out a solid cold light, which really gave people a sense of power without anger.

He was wearing the same black leather armor, but the leather armor was inlaid with silver wire and some irregular silver-white crystals. He kept hanging his head and seemed to be thinking about things. It was not until the light cavalry in front was approaching the water that he slowly raised his head, opened his eyes, and looked at the Zhongli City on the other side seriously for the first time.

After a few breaths, he continued to hang his head and then asked coldly: "Who is the leader in Jiangxinzhou?"

A middle-aged man wearing red clothes, not like a sergeant at all, but like a priest, bent slightly and said, "It's Yang Haoyu."

The Northern Wei general on the chariot let out a light ejaculation, and then continued: "I said that I broke the city last night. Until now, Zhongli is not in my hand. You send me orders to let him retreat and let Yan Qinghe attack the city directly."

Following his orders, the man in the red-robed priest looked like a priest had no objection. He bowed and bowed again, and waited to retreat to pass the order. However, on a chariot next to the chariot, there was a man in his fifties in his green robe and long bearded who looked like a military advisor, who had objections.

The man who looked like a military advisor coughed lightly and said, "Yang Haoyu is a powerful general. Since he has no choice, it is best to wait a little longer. He is Yang Dian's subordinate... Since Yang Dian is coming..."

"Are you still waiting for Yang Dian, or are you worried that he will not look good in appearance?" The burly Northern Wei general on the chariot sneered, "We have a total of 70,000 troops. Can't we still conquer such a small city? Do we still need to wait for Yang Dian to lead his 30,000 troops? Seventy thousand is not as good as 30,000. So can we still raise our heads in front of the King of Zhongshan in the future? As for Yang Haoyu who can't conquer, even if there are powerful cultivators in this city at this time, Yan Qinghe will die if he dies. I didn't like the Southern Dynasty people who surrendered like this."

Hearing him say this, the man stopped talking.

As a military advisor, he just needs to make suggestions and opinions truthfully. As for whether to adopt them, it is the matter of the general. As for right or wrong, he doesn't have to consider it.

A loud shout sounded among the army ahead.

Among the light cavalry at the forefront, a general wearing black armor but with a blue scabbard flashed violently.

Then he let out a few loud roars, and the cavalry around him suddenly accelerated.

More than 3,000 cavalry and dozens of chariots left the army, and they were far ahead and began to pass through the floating bridge, rushing towards the north wall like a long snake.

A shrill sound of alarm sounds rose in Zhongli City.

Many soldiers who were tired and didn't want to move a finger, enduring the soreness and swelling of their limbs and crawled up.

At this moment, arrows kept ringing at the south wall.

"It's your Tie Ce Army, Xue Jiu and the others have arrived."

"The Northern Wei army outside the southern wall has retreated for several miles."

Such a sound arrow sent two messages.

“It’s just right.”

Listening to such news, Qi Zhuji narrowed his eyes and looked at the Northern Wei army that had already covered the coast on the opposite side, and sneered: "It is better to have reinforcements than nothing."

"At least we have to hold on until Wei Guanxing and the others arrive."

Lin Yi had just said this, Rong Yi's voice rang out in the back with some anxiety, "Do you want to move that carriage up?"

Lin Yi thought about it.

Of course he understood Rong Yi's meaning.

The carriage was made by Xiao Donghuang, which is equivalent to a moving magic circle. If it is blocked against the wall facing the floating bridge, it can naturally play the role of large-scale weapons, but whether it is a magic circle or a flying sword, it requires the consumption of true energy.
