Douluo’s Immortal Swordsman
Chapter 448: Pengcheng besieged
Time passed quickly, and half a month passed quickly.
Xue Qinghe led an army of 500,000 and surrounded the third gate, Pengcheng, and besieged Dai Qinglan and others. After Xueqinghe encircled Pengcheng, he did not send anyone to attack the city. The troops in four directions were stationed about four miles away from the city wall, but they would still send people to shout to persuade them to surrender and interfere with the people on Xing Luo's side.
In Pengcheng City Lord's Mansion.
Dai Qinglan sat above the first place, glanced at the people below, and said, "How is the situation now?"
A general said: "Return to the marshal, the Tiandou army totals about 500,000 people. They divided us into four groups and besieged us within Pengcheng. However, they did not attack our city wall, but sent people to stand with archers. Called to persuade you to surrender outside of the range.
Among the four walls, the northern one is about 100,000 people, and the east and west two walls each have 120,000 people. The southern one has the largest number of people outside the city wall, about 160,000.
The supplies in the city can only sustain the army's expenditure for four months, and we must figure out how to deal with it before the supplies are exhausted. "
Hearing this, Dai Qinglan frowned, pondered for a while, and slowly said: "It is said that the Tiandou Empire led a million soldiers to attack us, and only half a million people stopped us. How about half of them? "
As soon as Dai Qinglan said this, the faces of the others also became ugly. Without Dai Qinglan's words, they also thought of a possibility.
The army of the Tiandou Empire was divided into two groups. One army surrounded them in Pengcheng by an army of 500,000. The other army bypassed Pengcheng and directly attacked the fourth and even fifth checkpoints.
Seeing the reaction of these people, Dai Qinglan knew that they had also thought of another terrible situation, so he asked, "Can we rush out?"
A general who is about 50 years old shook his head and said: "It's probably difficult. No matter which city gate we go out from, we will be blocked by the other side. The other two neighboring city gates will also send troops to strengthen. It is impossible to rush out with all the soldiers."
After a short pause, the person continued: "However, it is possible for the army to pretend to leave. The coach led a group of elites to rush out through the weakly defensive gates."
Dai Qinglan sighed slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Even if I can lead a group of elites to rush out, but if I want to stop the Tiandou Empire from attacking the city by another half a million troops, the number is still too small to stop the opponent's attack speed. ."
Everyone fell silent upon hearing the words, and sighed in their hearts.
"Damn Wuhun Empire!"
At this moment, a general's angry low voice sounded in the quiet hall, and everyone immediately looked at it, and the man's face also showed an embarrassed look and lowered his head slightly.
Everyone present at this time also hated the Wuhun Empire. If it were not for the sudden and rapid development of the Wuhun Temple decades ago, it would have the strength to compete with the two empires, and the empire would be afraid to attack the Heaven Dou Empire. Otherwise, The Star Luo Empire has already accomplished the feat of unifying the mainland!
Now it has expanded to Jianguo!
There was also that stupid New Emperor Tiandou who cooperated with Wuhun Hall to attack the Star Luo Empire together and dispersed most of their army, otherwise they would not be able to resist so hard now.
Dai Qinglan sighed slightly, and asked, "Can the information be sent out?"
A general shook his head and said: "Head coach, as long as our homing pigeons fly above the Heaven Dou army, they will be killed by the opponent. It is impossible to transmit information by means of homing pigeons."
After a moment of silence, the person continued: "But there is another way to try."
"What way?" Dai Qinglan asked.
The rest of the people also cast doubtful glances at the man, but some people seemed to have guessed something, with a little shocked expression in their eyes.
The general continued: "Send a soul master who can fly, fly into the sky with the letter, and then leave from the relatively weakly guarded north, and then detour the letter back to Xingluo City.
This plan is feasible to a certain extent, but it needs the soul master who can fly to fly high enough, it is best to fly to the limit height that the soul master can reach, and then the best choice of time is night. If you can, you can choose a night without moonlight, which is more conducive to leaving here. "
After hearing the words, Dai Qinglan was silent for a while, and thought about it in his mind. It seems that the only way to tell the emperor of Xingluo in Xingluo City is this way.
Dai Qinglan glanced at the people below and asked, "Does any of you volunteer?"
The people below were silent for a while when they heard the words, and then five people stood up, two of them were Contras, and the remaining three were Spirit Sages. They said in unison: "I do!"
Dai Qinglan looked at them with a solemn expression, and slowly said, "Okay, then this matter will be left to you. You five will set off together. You must inform your Majesty of the situation here."
"Yes!"
Immediately, Dai Qinglan discussed the specific details of the matter with everyone, which was to finalize the matter.
Dai Qinglan and others do not intend to attack the city for the time being, but continue to stay here to delay Tiandou’s 500,000 troops, but send people to spread their current situation and letters to let Emperor Xingluo know this in advance and want to deal with it. law.
Time slowly passed, and soon arrived at two o'clock in the morning.
In the most central location of Pengcheng, at this time, except for the four walls of Pengcheng's high-level defenders, the rest gathered here to see off the strong men who were preparing to go out.
Dai Qinglan glanced at the five people in front of him, and exhorted: "The letter must be safely delivered to your Majesty."
The five nodded solemnly, and then they each completed the spirit possession, and even directly completed the martial spirit body, concealed the spirit ring, waved their wings and leaped vigorously towards the sky.
Seeing this, the generals on the side of Tiandou's night watch immediately reported the matter. Several spirit masters with flying ability and above Soul Sage also flew into the air, chasing in the direction where Xingluo and his party left. .
Xingluo and his party had no intention of fighting with the Tiandou side, they showed their fastest speed and galloped toward the north. Naturally, those on the Tiandou side would not let them go so easily.
The two sides are chasing me in the air, in a fierce chasing competition.
After some chasing, Tian Dou's side grabbed one of Xing Luo's five people, and the other four ran away.
After Tian Dou and his party caught this person, they went for an interrogation, but they didn't ask anything of value, but they could probably guess what the other party was doing. They didn't kill this person, but sealed the person's soul power and imprisoned him.
After Xingluo and his party escaped from the chase of the Tiandou side, they hurried towards Xingluo City around the direction of Pengcheng, and they wanted to inform the Xingluo Emperor of this information as quickly as possible.
The Tian Dou party also sent a fast soul master, heading in Su Qin's direction, and informed Su Qin of this time, so that Su Qin and others were prepared in advance.
