MTL - Fairy, Please Let Me Explain-Chapter 249 pause

  Chapter 249 The Battle Situation Pauses

  When the southern city was under pressure, there was no fighting on the eastern front.

  In addition to the howling cold wind, the only sound left is the "click" sound of groups of soldiers patrolling the snow.

  The distance between the gate tower of the east city and the south city is quite far, and the battle situation there can't be seen clearly, there can only be some gunpowder smoke and faint shouts and roars.

   But even hearing these sounds is enough for the Habayashi guards and frontier soldiers in the east city to imagine the battle in the south city.

  Some people are afraid, some are grateful, and some are eager to try.

  Xu Yuan stood on the city gate and looked at the expressions of the soldiers below with different expressions, and sighed slightly:

   "Lieutenant Cang, do you think Qingyan's plan can be accomplished?"

  “.”

  After the words fell, Lieutenant Cang, who lowered his eyes, seemed not to have heard Xu Yuan's question.

  Ever since he knew His Highness Wu Yuan's intentions, he has been thinking about some things.

  Xu Yuan didn't urge him when he saw this, knowing that the other party was probably thinking about the military situation.

   After a while,

   Lieutenant General Cang glanced at the smoke in front of him, and then at the somewhat flimsy defensive formation on the dome.

The defense formation of Beifeng City is a large formation composed of small formations interlocking with each other. The collapse of the formation in the south of the city did not affect the operation of the formation here, but the overloaded operation of the formation pattern on the other side caused the rest of the formation. Part of the source energy has been withdrawn.

   In other words,

  Before Yun Qi makes up for it, the protection that this large moat formation can provide can basically be said to be none of the ten.

   At this point in his thoughts, Lieutenant Cang sighed:

   "That barbarian king is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The situation of the battle is changing rapidly. I don't know whether he will succeed, but at least there will be a princess in the south of the city."

  Hearing the words, Xu Yuan glanced at the Nancheng where the gunpowder was everywhere.

  Under the blessing of the Blood Origin Heart Falling Art, he could see the flesh and blood that had been frozen into ice cubes all over the inner city over there.

  In the ancient wars of the previous life, basically 10-20% of the soldiers would be defeated, and if they insisted that 30% of the soldiers were not defeated, they would be the elite.

  Withdrawing his gaze, Xu Yuan said softly:

   "As long as there is no defeat, then going out this trip will be considered a gain."

   Lieutenant General Cang smiled lightly and said:

   "Master Xu, I don't know if you have captured Cang, but I suggest you go back to the government office first."

   "Go back to the government office?"

  Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows, and subconsciously glanced at the thick smoke that obscured the sun: "Lieutenant Cang, what did you find?"

   Lieutenant General Cang also looked at the smoke screen outside the city:

   "Mr. Xu, the war has progressed so far. Those barbarian tribal chiefs with brains and muscles have either died or become vassals of other large tribes under the leadership of that barbarian king."

   After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan's reaction was quick:

   "You mean that after learning of Li Qingyan's raid on the flank of the barbarian king's central army, they would not choose to send troops to help, but would directly attack the city from the east and west sides?"

   "Yes, the chiefs of the few remaining tribes of the barbarians are well aware of the combat power of our elite fighters. Even if they urgently send reinforcements, the princess can directly transfer the troops from the southern city and return to the city."

   Lieutenant General Cang seems to know these old opponents of the barbarians very well, his eyes are solemn:

"They are all old foxes who have gone through thousands of battles. They have a keen sense of the changes in the battle situation. The princess dared to lead an army to attack the barbarian king's camp, which means that she brought nine out of ten of our Beifeng City's elite. The city is naturally empty. The biggest choice is to trust the barbarian alien king and directly lead his troops to attack the city."

  “.”

  Listening to Lieutenant General Cang's analysis, Xu Yuan subconsciously glanced at the Habayashi Army waiting below.

   Yes, Li Qingyan is ready.

  He previously thought that the bosom-wrapped fiancée stayed in this battalion of Habayashi Guards for support, but now he saw that the other party was not planning to come back from the East City Gate at all.

   But, are all tactics players so deep in their hearts?

   I don't know if he can hold down this breast-wrapped woman in the future.

  Well, I miss the second day of Big Bing Tuozi.

  Looking at Xu Yuan's silence, Lieutenant Cang cupped his hands after finishing speaking:

   "Young Master Xu, Dongcheng will probably go to war soon, so I offended you."

   Say it,

  He didn't give Xu Yuan time to react, and directly shouted in a low voice:

   "Qu Li, Zhang Hong, and you two **** Mr. Xu back to the government office!"

  “.”

  Xu Yuan glanced at Lieutenant Cang in surprise.

Under the premise that the barbarians will attack the city, he knows that the other party will not let him stay on the gate tower. The fifth-rank cultivation base is indeed quite high among these elites of the six or seven-rank habayashi, but among the chaos army , a stray arrow fired from a machine or a siege by a barbarian squad can kill him.

   But he didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to help him pave the steps.

   This lieutenant general has a bright future.

   Glancing at the two lieutenant guards who trotted over, Xu Yuan grinned and said:

   "Lieutenant Cang, you know me quite well."

   Lieutenant General Cang's expression remained unchanged:

   "If you make a mistake, Cang can't do business for the princess, and the princess can't do business for Mr. Xiangguo, please."

  Xu Yuan pondered for a while, but still shook his head.

   Lieutenant General Cang frowned.

  Xu Yuan smiled and said:

   "A gentleman does not build a dangerous wall, but isn't this wall still a dangerous wall?"

   Lieutenant General Cang looked puzzled:

   "Master Xu, it doesn't make any sense for you to stay on this city wall."

   Of course Xu Yuan knew it was meaningless.

  If he was on the southern city wall at the moment, it might still be meaningful.

   After all, there is the Black Scale Army over there.

  After the brainwashing in the Tianan Martial Arts Museum and the Black Scale Army, a cult of personality has formed in the hearts of most of the Black Scale Army.

   A personality cult for his daddy.

  In the past, even if he didn't do anything, as long as he stood on the city wall, it would be equivalent to the prince's personal conquest against the black scale army, which could boost morale.

  But in addition to a battalion of Habayashi Army in Dongcheng, there are only 10,000 regular Zongmen frontier troops.

   But the problem is, he dare not go back to the government office now.

  Li Zhaoyuan is still staying in the government office.

  Vice General Cang will not be against him, but Li Zhaoyuan is not necessarily.

  The bombing of the Zongmen warehouse was ordered by Qin Weijiu and carried out by Su Meimo, but it has not been determined whether Li Zhaoyuan participated in it.

  If the other party really cooperates with Qin Weijiu, they must want to get rid of him.

  Even if he didn't know that he was the chosen heir of the Xiangguo Mansion, he would still want to get rid of him based on his soaring cultivation over the past year.

  The barbarians attacked the city, and the third son of Xiangguo died suddenly, how pleasant it sounds~

after all,

  The Xiangguo Mansion without an heir is the best Xiangguo Mansion.

   Xu Yuan stared at Lieutenant Cang, and said seriously:

"Lieutenant Cang, not everything in this world needs a meaning. There are many things that I need to experience personally and see with my own eyes. Otherwise, the lives of these soldiers in the future will always be in the file in my cognition. A string of cold numbers."

  “.”

   Lieutenant General Cang's eyes changed for a moment, and his eyes softened when he looked at Xu Yuan. He didn't say anything, but he waved his hands to let the two lieutenants go down.

  Amidst the cold wind and the shouts of killing coming from the south of the city, time passed by every minute.

  Suddenly,

  A hurricane suddenly blew up, but it wasn't a barbarian, but a slender figure in a prince's jade robe.

   It was Li Zhaoyuan.

   Seeing the other party, Xu Yuan's face remained unchanged, but his heart sank slightly.

  Be quiet for a moment,

  Xu Yuan didn't move, but Lieutenant Cang kneeled directly on the ground beside him:

   "Second Highness!"

  Li Zhaoyuan glanced at him, his voice was neither cold nor cold, with a trace of alienation:

   "Vice General Cang, there is no need to be polite when the military situation is urgent."

   Lieutenant General Cang got up immediately after hearing the words, looked at Li Zhaoyuan's toes and cupped his hands and said:

   "Now that the barbarians are about to attack the city, why are you here, Second Highness?"

  Li Zhaoyuan's face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes is still serious:

   "I have done everything I can do in the government office. The military situation is urgent. As a prince, I naturally want to contribute to the front line."

  Xu Yuan glanced up and down at the second prince.

  Although he had slapped this kid in the face, he actually didn't know the second prince's cultivation level. After all, his father was walking in front when he slapped the face.

   But looking at the unfathomable aura of the other party, it should be a third-rank grand master at the last time.

   Lieutenant General Cang still bowed his head and cupped his hands:

   "Your Highness, on the battlefield, you have extraordinary fighting skills, you are a body of gold."

   "Lieutenant Cang."

  Li Zhaoyuan interrupted him by raising his hand, looking at the patrolling soldiers below with complicated eyes, with a serious tone:

   "This king needs to see these soldiers who died for the Great Yan with his own eyes, otherwise, in the future, they may only be a string of warm names in my heart."

   "." Xu Yuan almost froze.

   "." Hearing this, Lieutenant Cang, who hung his head down, had a strange expression on his face.

   Silence for a moment,

   Lieutenant General Cang coughed lightly, and arched his saluting hand forward:

   "Cough, His Royal Highness is worried about the soldiers, and Cang will keep it in his heart."

  The words fall,

   Lieutenant General Cang straightened up and looked out of the city without looking sideways.

   And at this time,

  Li Zhaoyuan turned his eyes to Xu Yuan and asked:

   "Third Young Master, don't you go back to the government office to rest?"

  Xu Yuan suppressed his smile and said:

   "As for me, I want to see what the front line looks like."

   Li Zhaoyuan persuaded with concern:

   "War is not a child's play, safety is the most important thing. If the third son is willing, this king will immediately arrange for guards to take you back to the mansion."

  Xu Yuan hissed immediately when he heard this.

broken.

   This guy, wouldn't he really want to play the trick of "the barbarians attack the city, and the three sons of Xiangguo die suddenly"?

  Facing the other party's sincere eyes, Xu Yuan shook his head,

   "Thank you for your concern, isn't there still Vice-General Cang here?"

   Paused for a moment, he turned and asked:

   "However, Second Highness, if you want to remember the importance of the lives of soldiers, why don't you go to Nancheng? You should be needed more there."

  The reason why Li Zhaoyuan came here is too weird, it's hard for Xu Yuan not to think about it.

  The other party wanted to establish prestige in the Yan army, Xu Yuan really knew it.

   But the problem is that if he really wants to establish his prestige, wouldn't it be a better choice for Li Zhaoyuan to go to Nancheng now?

  Not only is the military situation in Nancheng more urgently in need of high-level cultivators, but Li Qingyan is also there.

   Danger is more dangerous, but greater risk means greater reward.

   Li Yunqing's sixth son might not dare, but Li Zhaoyuan definitely dares to take this risk.

  The expression on Li Zhaoyuan's face couldn't see the slightest clue, and he replied without thinking:

   "The emperor's sister and the commander-in-chief of Yuan are already sitting there, so I don't need to go anymore."

"Ah"

  Xu Yuan chuckled noncommittally, and suddenly turned his sideways eyes to Lieutenant General Cang and asked:

   "Lieutenant Cang, is your habit of controlling the army array at the front or at the rear?"

  The records of the internal reference of the Xiangguo Mansion about the military formation basically require generals to sit in the central army. Even if the general who is the leader of the formation is injured, it will affect the maintenance of the military formation, and if the formation is killed, the entire military formation will collapse directly.

  But before in Vientiane City, Xu Yuan saw that Yuan Hao's way of fighting was that the general rushed directly to the front.

   Lieutenant Cang's voice was flat:

   "Cang's practice in the military formation is not as good as that of the princess, and he usually sits in the middle army."

  Xu Yuan nodded when he heard the words:

   "That's good."

  If Lieutenant Cang likes to rush to the front as much as Yuan Hao, then he really has to run away.

  Although it is not sure whether Li Zhaoyuan wants to do something to him, this thing cannot be gambled on.

   Lieutenant General Cang said softly:

   "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, as long as the general is still alive, you will definitely not make any mistakes."

   "Thanks."

  Xu Yuan smiled relaxedly, then turned to look at Li Zhaoyuan who was aside:

   "Second Highness, is this your first time on the front line?"

"yes."

  Li Zhaoyuan looked back, with a faint smile on his lips:

   "The third son should be the same, but why does this king feel that you don't seem nervous at all?"

  Xu Yuan spread his hands, very bachelor:

   "I'm used to being idle, and I don't have the habit of being nervous."

   Paused, he stared at him again and smiled:

   "Although I'm not nervous, I'm a person who cherishes my life. The Second Highness has to take care of me for a while. So many people have seen His Highness standing next to me. If it's dangerous, it won't make sense for you not to help me."

   At the end, Xu Yuan slightly emphasized his tone.

  “.”

  Li Zhaoyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

  Xu Yuan looked at him with a smile.

   Li Zhaoyuan took the lead to look away, and said in a low voice:

   "There should be other Black Scale Guards in the city, right?"

  Xu Yuan also looked at the smoke screen in front of him blocking his sight, and said with a smile:

   "There are indeed, but where they are now, I don't know."

   Li Zhaoyuan's voice is flat and soothing:

   "Heh, the third son is Xu Gong's most beloved heir, and Xu Gong is the pillar of our Great Yan Kingdom. This king will naturally protect the third son."

  Not long after Li Zhaoyuan finished speaking,

  The barbarians in the east of the city, who endured the bombing of monsters, finally started their attack on the east city

  Because there was no war colossus in the east, the barbarians had their warriors throw countless iron thorns at the first moment of attacking the city.

  The smoke released by the sun, at this moment, became the best cover for these barbarians to attack the city.

  Countless barbarian soldiers took advantage of the effect of the mist to attach themselves to the agile ants.

Although the large defensive array in the sky has been partially visible due to the insufficient supply of source energy, it still continues to provide shelter for the defenders of the Great Yan on the city wall, and all kinds of defensive equipment are directed directly into the mist below. shoot.

   From time to time, you can hear the painful wailing from below the city.

  In the mist below the city, from time to time, condensed monster totems would be shot out towards the sky in a large formation.

  Every impact will make the moat sway for a moment.

   After a stalemate over a cup of tea,

  The first barbarian jumped onto the top of the wall, but his tall body of Zhang Xu was cut in two by a Habayashi soldier.

   But followed by the second barbarian, the tenth barbarian, the hundredth barbarian!

   This is the first time Xu Yuan has seen the barbarian ethnic group with his own eyes.

  Human form, but ferocious and terrifying, at first glance, it has a kind of uncanny valley effect.

  The Habayashi Army, which formed an army formation and stood on the city wall, seemed to have adapted to the opponent's appearance, and the standard ancient ingot long sword was ruthless when brandished.

   How many come up, how many kills.

   It was almost a one-sided massacre.

  The black blood of the barbarians gradually stained the city wall, steamed up, then dissipated in an instant, and quickly turned into solid ice in the freezing temperature.

  But very soon, the large defensive formation in the sky seemed to have exhausted its source of energy due to the impact of the totems in the mist, and the frequency of releasing attacks gradually slowed down, and the defenders of Great Yan finally suffered their first casualties.

   And once it starts, the casualties can no longer be stopped.

  The barbarians under the city seem to be endless, and two can jump up after killing one.

  The barbarians who built a bridgehead on the city wall tried to expand the results of the battle, but the crossbow arrows arranged at different heights directly caused their flesh and blood to fly.

  Xu Yuan saw a barbarian leader whose aura was not weaker than his, wanted to shake the crossbow arrows, but his body disappeared instantly, leaving only a pair of legs standing in place.

  I also saw a Habayashi Yajiang being hit by a totem phantom and instantly exploded into blood foam.

  The scorching red and black blood was continuously splashed, and then rapidly cooled and frozen under the freezing temperature, and was finally shattered by the intertwined energy of both sides, turning into ice **** and flying all over the sky.

  Standing on the top of the city gate, Xu Yuan silently watched the war that belonged to the extraordinary world below. His breathing changed from calm to rapid, and finally returned to normal from rapid.

   In the tide of barbarians,

   A series of expensive formation ballistas were destroyed, one by one desperate Habayashi soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and the area occupied by the barbarians on the city wall began to spread step by step.

   This is the price, the price for Li Qingyan to put all his eggs in one basket and concentrate his forces to fight a decisive battle.

  The advantage in the south of the city was obtained in exchange for the crisis in the east and west cities.

  Time seems to have no concept at this moment.

  Only the splash of blood and the breath of death filled the city wall

   At this point, they are already competing for the willpower of the generals and soldiers on both sides.

   Whoever collapses first loses.

  Xu Yuan clenched his fist slightly, but suddenly found that Li Zhaoyuan beside him suddenly disappeared.

next moment,

  A burst of dazzling white thunder almost illuminated the sky covered by snow clouds, and the powerful aura that belonged to Yipin Metamorphosis began to wreak havoc on the city wall unscrupulously.

   Dao domain suddenly appeared, with a radius of hundreds of feet, thunder light filled the sky in an instant!

  In an instant,

   Hundreds of tall barbarian soldiers fell to the ground and turned into coke.

  Seeing this scene,

  Xu Yuan's pupils shrank suddenly.

   It’s broken, he slapped the face of a degenerate prince in the palace before.

  But the next moment, Xu Yuan raised his eyes to look at the large formation above the sky.

  Even if Li Zhaoyuan is a superhuman power, he doesn't believe that the opponent dares to be so ostentatious in a war of this scale.

  Because the next moment the high-level cultivator made his move was the bombardment from the military formation.

   And just as Xu Yuan thought,

  Li Zhaoyuan's domain had just started, and before the moves stopped, a phantom of a giant python rushed out of the smoke suddenly!

  The tough city wall turned into dust the moment it touched the python's body, and invaded Li Zhaoyuan's sky-filled thunder field. The thick lightning arc hit the giant python's phantom, but it couldn't stop it at all.

  It's a pity that the large defensive formation that had almost stagnated above the sky resurfaced at this time.

   Li Zhaoyuan's body instantly condensed a thick layer of shield.

  The shield collided with the giant python, and the two sources of energy intertwined and wrestled, and the huge shock made the entire East City tremble slightly!

  Xu Yuan stabilized his figure, and instantly understood what the second prince wanted to do.

  Deliberately restraining the source qi of the large formation protecting the city, he made a move at a critical moment, relying on the protection of the large formation, he used his own strength to defeat the morale of the barbarians in one fell swoop.

  The barbarian general who controls the totem of the army formation below will naturally not be slower than Xu Yuan.

  After Li Zhaoyuan killed nearly a hundred barbarian soldiers, a phantom of a giant tortoise shell condensed and blocked Li Zhaoyuan's lightning arc.

  The Thunder Dao domain converges in an instant, the thunder light reflecting the bright sky gradually turns into a frightening purple, and the speed of Li Zhaoyuan's body suddenly increases sharply again!

  At this moment, an invisible pressure was cast down on the large defensive formation in the sky.

  The moment the phantom of the tortoise shell was intertwined with the lightning arc and heavy pressure, cracks appeared one after another, and then spread rapidly, shattering in a few breaths, directly turning into dots of starlight and disappearing in the air.

  Just when Xu Yuan thought that Li Zhaoyuan would continue his solo show, he suddenly stopped and flew back to the gate tower.

  Xu Yuan looked at Li Zhaoyuan whose body was still shining with thunder, and asked with a smile:

   "Second Highness, the defensive array is completely exhausted?"

   Li Zhaoyuan also answered very honestly:

   "It's natural. This king doesn't dare to mess around in this kind of army formation. The morale of the barbarians should be broken. The next thing will be left to Lieutenant Cang."

  After this change, the offensive and defensive momentum on the city wall changed again.

Shortly after,

   Excited exclamations on the city wall reached Xu Yuan's ears:

   "The barbarians are back!"

   "The barbarians are back!"

   "Second Highness Chitose!"

   "Second Highness Second Highness Wu Yun Changlong!"

  “.”

  Listening to these shouts, Xu Yuan looked back and cupped his hands at Li Zhaoyuan:

   "The Second Highness has gained a lot, and his cultivation is so deep, it really makes Chang Tian terrified."

  Li Zhaoyuan still had the indifferent expression before, his face was slightly pale, and he smiled slightly:

   "Third Young Master, you don't have to be polite. This time, the king has borrowed some external force."

   paused for a moment,

   Li Zhaoyuan seemed to hear something, glanced at the direction of Nancheng sideways, and said with a light smile:

   "The imperial sister has already entered the city, she... asked me to take you there, Third Young Master."

  Xu Yuan didn't move when he heard the words, but grinned:

   "Oh? How did you get in touch?"

   "The big formation protecting the city, our royal family can control the big formation, so we can naturally send messages in the city through it."

  Li Zhaoyuan pointed to the dome, and then smiled warmly: "Of course, the third son can also ask Vice General Cang to arrange someone to take you there."

  Xu Yuan took a deep look at the other party, and laughed:

   "Look at what you said, Second Highness, it's out of your reach."

   Say it,

  Xu Yuan looked sideways at Lieutenant Cang, whose face turned pale due to the backlash of the army, and said loudly:

   "Vice General Cang, I will go down with the Second Highness to meet Qing Yan first, take care."

  Dragged by Li Zhaoyuan with Yuan Qi, Xu Yuan and Xu Yuan soon arrived at Nancheng, the barracks where the Habayashi Army was located.

   came together outside the huge barracks that belonged to Li Qingyan,

   Before the two could speak to the guard outside the door, Li Qingyan's rustling voice came from the barracks:

   "Second brother, wait a moment, the son-in-law will come in first."

   It’s a bit late, it’s 6k longer, and it’s posted after the coding

   or?
