Capítulo 1289: Chapter 90: Heavenly Khan!
Li Guanyi galloped swiftly, launching a surprise attack aid at Military God Jiang Su.
No need for concealnt anymore.
At this point, Li Guanyi planned to directly target the rear of Jiang Su, the Military God.
Using the simplest and most effective conical formation of the Military Formation, he struck fiercely, then shifted tactics, starting from the flanks, relying on the nurical advantage of the Khan’s Alliance Army from the Western Regions, using several tis the troops to dismantle and cut through Jiang Su’s forces.
Like the blade of Ling Chi, slicing through the Military God’s army.
Ti at this mont was exceedingly crucial, Li Guanyi could not afford any distractions.
On the battlefield, the atmosphere was tense, Xiyi City was completely surrounded. Although such a top-tier defensive border fortress was not easily breached, Jiang Su’s withdrawal of all forces left it unable to support the frontline.
Particularly, Li Guanyi’s actions alerted the retreating Lu Youxian.
This old general of Chen Country, who had battled for an entire night, forcing Jiang Xuantao to retreat, now disregarded his own wounds, returned to the frontline, consolidated the scattered troops, and added another layer to Li Guanyi’s defense with Chen Country’s famous heavy-armored infantry corps beyond the line.
Completely blocking Duke Li.
Duke Li, moving like the wind, looked at the solemn old turtle outside the city, observing the defensive line filled with chanical crossbows, fire-spitting chanical beasts, and spear formations among the giant shields, his face turned livid.
Two layers of turtle shells!
Two layers!
Damn it!
Old turtle!
Previously, the young generation Li Guanyi was not adept at defensive battles, and faced with Li Guanyi’s defense, Duke Li would still consider charging through, as it would be unreasonable to abandon Jiang Su upon encirclent.
That would be too disgraceful.
But now, seeing Lu Youxian, draped in a bloodied war robe and covered in wounds, standing solemnly on the battlefield with hands on the sword hilt, Duke Li was thoroughly torn.
Who says building the front line directly at the opponent’s city gate doesn’t count as a defensive battle?!
Old turtle, damn you!
“Li Guanyi, oh Li Guanyi…”
Duke Li gritted his teeth, finding it unbelievable—the battlefield and the situation in the world were changing so drastically, he couldn’t comprehend it anymore, but recalling this young general, he still rembered clearly.
Just half a year ago, he was rely a young and brave general, fierce yet young, not particularly valued by him.
But who would’ve known, in just half a year, this young fierce general would transform with such audacity.
Duke Li, pressing against the city wall, vaguely understood sothing, thinking to himself, “…is it because of the confrontation with the Wolf King, under the extre pressure from the Wolf King, that’s why he transford so rapidly?”
Xiahou Duan looked at him and said, “Lord…”
Duke Li sighed, “No matter.”
He maintained a calm deanor and then said:
“Erlang is still there.”
Xiahou Duan was montarily speechless.
Xiahou Duan asked, “So, should we surrender?”
Duke Li chuckled, “Surrender?” Clutching the hilt of his sword, he realized he was just an old guy now, the youthful pride long gone, replaced rely by a facade of composure and bravery.
If, at this mont, they surrendered with the help of Erlang’s connection, it wouldn’t be a bad solution.
But, like that…
It’s not dignified.
Duke Li tightly gripped the sword hilt, suppressing the tremor of fear, and then mimicked his younger self, smiling calmly:
“I an, with Erlang still there, my family will not be without descendants.”
“Xiahou, gather all the sons and house servants. I also want to test Chen Country Lu Youxian’s military prowess. How can we be lacking in courage when the younger generation charges ahead?”
Duke Li holding the sword: “Just soone who’s lost the heroic spirit of youth, forced to put on an act, but even so, let keep the act till the end.” His eyes, fixed on the famous general of Chen Country, were filled with sharpness and aristocratic pride:
“My Li Family of Longyou, cannot end so disgracefully.”
“The ancestors, even in death, should die a magnificent and grand death, not becoming a stepping stone for a young general ascending to fa. That is undignified.”
“Our noble lineage should end in a noble fashion.”
“How can we be turtle-like cowards?!”
“Even if I am to die on the battlefield today, when future generations comnt on history, praising Li Guanyi’s bravery, they should also hold so asure of respect for the Li Family who died defending the borders and protecting the country.”
Li Guanyi rushed to the front, cutting off the rear of the Military God at this ti.
Duke Li gathered all his forces, heading out of the city to confront Lu Youxian.
This was sothing Li Guanyi had always feared, but at this mont, as he led the cavalry forward at high speed, he was reassured that the hastily constructed defensive line at the rear would not be breached by Duke Li in a short ti.
When Lu Youxian was the enemy, he was the most troubleso, evoking anger and rage in opponents.
But when Lu Youxian was an ally.
He would beco the most reliable support, silent and solemn.
He could resist all threats from the rear.
When even Lu Youxian couldn’t hold on, it already signified that the threat to the front line reached its peak, even if both sides were enemies, they had a common adversary at this mont.
Li Guanyi’s eyes witnessed the circulation of murderous aura.
He gritted his teeth.
The montum of Military God Jiang Su was overwhelming, Li Guanyi could already see the fluttering banners, hear the sharp clashes of weapons, as the Khan’s Cavalry Alliance suddenly lowered their long cavalry spears, accelerating swiftly.
