Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 447

Chapter 447 Big Counterattack! 100,000 Creatures Helping Demon Flames

At dawn, there was not the slightest glimmer of rainbow clouds in the horizon. Instead, the black clouds crushed the cold air and plummeted.

This was the coldest day of winter in the Helong area this year.

However, Shanzhou City was filled with passion.

Qin Mubai’s breath was weak and his voice was weak, but every word he said was enough to make one’s blood boil!

“This Marshal’s Decree: All Guanxi Army within and outside Shanzhou City, except for the 50,000 new recruits from Lanzhou, will be moved out of the city and divided into three divisions!”

“Order!” With a loud clang, Qin Mubai took out a token and said, “General Yuwen Hongtai of the Zuowei Guards is the vanguard. He leads his troops, Mo Dao 5,000 and Yue Qi 3,000, to advance towards the Illusory Moon Valley first! If you encounter any enemy troops along the way, kill them without any hesitation! Until all the passages from Shanzhou to Illusory Moon Valley are cleared!”

Yuwen Hongtai did not jump out like he was bleeding a chicken. Instead, he opened his eyes wide like a copper bell and slowly moved out like he was in a daze. He walked to the Dianjiang Stage.

Qin Mubai stretched out his hand with the military order in his hand and shouted, “Yuwen Hongtai, don’t take the order!”

“Take it, I’ll take it!” Yuwen Hongtai was stunned as if he was filled with enlightenment. His hand trembled, but the general’s order fell to the ground and he hurriedly bent down to pick it up.

“What are you panicking about!” Qin Mubai’s expression darkened as he berated, “Let’s see if you can enter the battle because you can’t keep your soul. If you can’t, then scram back and sleep. Don’t let this vanguard order ruin my plans!”

‘”Yes, yes, yes” Yuwen Hongtai stared straight at Qin Mubai and mechanically replied, “I, I just … feel like I’m dreaming. Third brother, isn’t this the Underworld?”

The soldiers laughed heartily.

“Retreat! Stop talking nonsense!” Qin Mubai scolded, but her eyes revealed a deep sense of satisfaction.

Yuwen Hongtai immediately burst into tears. He clasped his fists tightly and shouted, “Yuwen Hongtai, you have to do it!-Third Brother, wait for my good news! I want to borrow your Tiger Head Golden Spear to personally chop off 800 heads to celebrate your return! If you lose one, cut off my black head!”

Qin Mubai stared at him for a moment before finally smiling and whispering, “Blackie, I’m sorry. If you have something to say, we’ll talk a lot in the future. Now, you can leave immediately.”

“Ai! I’m going!” Yuwen Hongtai wiped his face. He lifted the tiger-headed golden spear and jumped onto the dark horse. He shouted, “Brothers, I’m going first! Major Marshal is back. Don’t say that he wants to destroy Gaer Qinling. Even if the Heavenly Court goes into hell, we can still win!”

The soldiers laughed out loud again. Yuwen Hongtai led his Mo saber and lit up the three thousand elites and roared away.

Qin Mubai muttered softly, “This fellow, you’re talking crazily …” However, he felt tears surge out of his eyes.

Chen Yan stood beside him and whispered, “Yuwen Hongtai is very close to you. If anything happens to you, he will definitely not live long. He is one of the most loyal, upright, and loyal men I have ever met.”

“One of them?” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “In my opinion, there isn’t a single one.”

Military orders were issued one after another–

“Order, Hou Jun will gather fifty thousand cavalry and follow Yuwen Hongtai to the Illusory Moon Valley. I order you to stabilize the formation corner and surround the enemy. Make sure that the main force of the enemy is blocked in the Illusory Moon Valley so that they cannot leave the valley!”

“Order!” Hou Junji stepped forward to receive the order and asked, “Are we going to ambush the Tibetans in the valley? Then why don’t we ambush them on the mountain first? Only then will we have a chance of winning.”

“I have personally investigated both sides of Illusory Moon Valley in detail. The mountain terrain there is too steep and lacks tree cover. It is not suitable to ambush.” Qin Mubai smiled mysteriously and said, “But General Hou, you don’t have to worry. At that time, there will naturally be heavenly might descending and killing the enemy.”

“What Major Marshal said … Heavenly Might?” Hou Junji was puzzled.

“Heavenly secrets must not be leaked. General, quickly lead the troops forward!” Qin Mubai picked up another order and shouted, “Xue Wanjun, listen!”

“The last one is here!” Xue Wanjun, who was already too late, rushed forward and knocked Hou Junji to the side. He cupped his fists and stood in front of Qin Mubai.

Hou Junji glared at Xue Wanjun angrily. He turned around and left. As he walked, he said, “Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze! At most, you can get a military order to defend the city! If it comes to fighting an enemy in the field, you still have to use someone from our Marquis!”

“Order! Xue Wanjun will lead the rest of the Guanxi Army to abandon Mo Dao, spear, and other weapons. He will only bring horizontal knives, bows, and ropes to prepare for the light footmen. After that, he will set off immediately. Without horses, he will walk all the way to Illusory Moon Valley!”

“Infantry? Why don’t you bring a workhorse?” Xue Wanjun was puzzled, “Major Marshal, isn’t it a high-speed soldier? Why are we bringing so many ropes? Are we going to climb a mountain?”

“When you arrive at the battlefield, just snatch the enemy horses and capture the escaping enemy prisoners.” Qin Mubai said, “So, what’s the use of bringing horses? The more ropes, the better. I’m afraid that you’ll have to take off your belt and tie people up when the time comes.”

“Huh? Like this?” Xue Wanjun rolled his eyes, his head full of mist, received the military order, and retreated doubtfully.

“Commander of the Snow Condor Army, Zhang Tong, listen.” Qin Mubai called out.

Zhang Tong walked out with a handsome flag in his arms and promised in a low voice.

“Take charge of my handsome flag, lead my personal subordinates 300 snow eagles, 200 Firegods and Pang Fei’s over 1,000 troops from Xiangyang, gallop on their fast horses, take a detour to the north, go to the forest on the north bank of the Qinghai Lake, and find the White Wave Navy.” Qin Mubai waved his hand and signaled for him to come over.

Zhang Tong leaned forward in confusion and listened.

Qin Mubai whispered, “The White Wave Navy has already prepared a large number of rafts.” They only recognize my handsome flag. Also, you know those people. When you set out, bring more thunder with you. You can bring as many five-fingered divine thunder as you can when you withdraw from Da Feichuan. Only when you hear the sound of an earthquake in the southwest and a big commotion occurs in the Dafeichuan Military Camp, you will lead your men aboard and wade towards the vicinity of the Dafeichuan Military Village. “There is a river connected to the Qinghai Lake, the Buha River that our army used to collect water-your Fire God destroyed the river bank and flooded the Great Feichuan!”

“I understand now!” Zhang excitedly answered, “when the river water leaked into the big non-sichuan, will lead the snow eagle army and white water army at the end of the boat captured captives!”

Qin Mubai looked up at the sky and recalled what Yuan Tiangang had said. “There will definitely be a snowstorm today and tomorrow,” he said. You don’t have to rush to capture the prisoners immediately after you blow up the levee. Let Tibetans enjoy the cold winter ice swimming for a while longer. Wait for their morale to collapse and the army to have no desire to fight, then attack again. “This matter is of great importance. Originally, I was going to personally go, but now, it is inconvenient for me to move, so I have entrusted you with it.”

“Don’t worry, Major Marshal. Zhang Tong will not disgrace his fate!” Zhang Tong replied seriously.

Qin Mubai’s eyebrows sank. “It’s best if we can capture Gaer Qinling alive!”

“Order!” Zhang Tong agreed excitedly.

“King of Jiangxia.” Qin Mubai called out.

Dao Sect Li walked forward and clasped his fists.

Qin Mubai cupped his hands and took out a military order. He said, “I order you to lead the Lanzhou New Army to guard the city, but order more troops to set up tents outside the city in case they take over the prisoners! Besides, the Yuyang Pass is definitely in urgent need of food and rescue. You can quickly send people to investigate or assist them. In short, the Shanzhou rear and Yuyang Pass, please leave it to Your Highness.”

“Order!” Without saying a word, Li Daozong solemnly took the token and said, “Then what are you doing? Look at you now, you’re finally in bed.”

“No, I want to personally lead my Yi Manor’s Yue Cavalry to the front of the Illusory Moon Valley to supervise the battle.” Qin Mubai took a deep breath and said, “If I don’t personally come to this battle, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life!”

“Alright … It seems that your intentions have been decided, so I won’t say anything more.” Li Daozong knitted his eyebrows and said, “Take care of yourself. The outcome is only temporary. Health is a matter of life.”

“Thank you, Your Highness, for your care.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “I can even come back from the dead. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“This is outrageous!” The Li Dao Sect glared at him with amusement and anger and said in a low voice, “When the war is over, this king still has a lot of personal grudges with you! Therefore, you’d better live a bit more vigorously!”

“Your Highness, don’t worry. Everyone says that the calamity will last for a thousand years. I won’t be finished so easily.” Qin Mubai smiled, restrained his expression, and stood up. Chen Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but Qin Mubai waved her hand and stopped her.

Shaking off the quilt on his body, Qin Mubai, who had taken off his tattered clothes, wore only a thin robe. He waved his hand and pulled out his saber. “My order has been given, and all the soldiers of the army will follow it! This battle will definitely destroy Tibet and capture Gaer Qinling alive!”

“Great destruction of Tibet, capture Gaer Qinling alive!”

All the soldiers raised their swords and spears at the same time, roaring like thunder!

The rolling sound waves alarmed Li Xueyan in the distant secretariat mansion. She pushed open the window and looked at the city. There was a flame in the military camp. Tens of thousands of people were gathered and howling crazily.

The sound was like a storm hitting the shore, a hurricane and a tsunami!

“What a powerful aura! Even a weak woman like me is about to have her blood boil.” Li Xueyan muttered to herself, “Is war about to begin? Our morale is actually so high …”

“Princess, princess!!” At this moment, a maidservant broke through the door and shouted out of breath, “I’m alive! I’m alive!”

“Why are you so panicked? What did you live for?” Li Xueyan frowned and said.

“Stop, Major Marshal! He’s alive! He’s alive!” The maid jumped forward and grabbed Li Xueyan’s hands, shouting incoherently in excitement.

“What?” Li Xueyan’s expression froze, and her eyes almost went straight, “Then, now, over at the mourning hall …”

“Princess! Princess! It’s not a haunted ghost, nor is it a fraudulent corpse!” The maid cried out excitedly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, “Major Marshal is not dead at all! Right now, he is directing the battle in the army base! More than a hundred thousand soldiers and horses are following his orders and leaving the city to meet the enemy one after another! Everyone knows the news, and now the city is boiling! Many people have walked out of their homes to celebrate Major Marshal’s return. Everyone in the city is shouting for help!”

Li Xueyan muttered to herself, “How could it be like this … So, it really is like this …” Her eyes went straight as she collapsed to the ground.

“Wow! Princess!”

At this moment, on a hill in the outskirts of Shanzhou, there was an inconspicuous Dao Shattering Temple.

Yuan Tiangang wore a black hat and stood in the wind at the entrance of the mountain gate. He watched as countless soldiers and horses rushed out like water. He sighed and muttered to himself, “This moment has finally arrived.” The Demon Star’s shell-shattering radiance was domineering, and now there were even 100,000 creatures helping the Demon Flame. From now on, the Demon Star would become a demon hero, and it would definitely be out of control! A hundred thousand creatures, cherish, sad, strong! … What is the fate of the Great Tang Empire? Since I have already sworn that I will no longer face to face with you, then even this old man will not know … “
