Li Ye and Li Keyong joined forces to attack Huang Chao, which was a joint operation, but Li Ye and Li Keyong must fight one by one.

But after Li Ye started to talk, Li Keyong was not in a hurry and asked Li Ye for the task of attacking first. When he was just outside the military camp, Huiming had a conversation with Li Keyong.

At that time, Huiming said: "If King An's general asks the vanguard to attack the city, General Wan Mo will rob him. Not only can he not rob, but he must also let him go."

Li Keyong was puzzled: "Wouldn't that give up the credit?"

Huiming said: "Tongguan is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the attack will lead to heavy casualties. This is one of them; there are two real-person masters in Tongguan, and who will be in trouble first will be in trouble. This is the second. If King An takes action first, if he does not show up to attack the city, there will be no top masters in Pinglu's army, and he will definitely not be able to win the pass. If he appears to attack the city and is targeted by the opponent's real-person real-person real-person real-person, it is a question whether he can save his life."

Li Keyong said: "When will our department take action?"

Huiming said: "When King An can't stand it and ask the general to come on the field, the general can come on the field."

Li Keyong said: "At that time, with the help of the masters from Juexiao Temple, the general was not afraid of the real human realm at Tongguan. With Li Ye's previous consumption of the defenders, it would be easy to capture Tongguan with the elite of our soldiers."

Huiming said: "That's true."

Li Keyong withdrew his thoughts and looked at Li Ye. He knew very well that Li Ye would definitely compete with him for the credit of attacking Tongguan, so Li Ye would definitely propose that the Pinglu army would take the lead in attacking the city. The Pinglu army had a great victory some time ago, and Li Ye would also think that they could capture Tongguan.

Li Keyong shook his head secretly, and suddenly felt very happy in his heart. Although Li Ye was also a ruthless person, he could only have the ninth level of Qi training and could not sense the existence of the real person realm. Of course, he would not know that there were two real person realm in Zhongnan Mountain above Tongguan.

"Master, the last general, please be the vanguard and capture Tongguan for the army!"

Zhao Polu of Pinglu Army stood up after the small case and clasped his fists to Li Ye for his orders.

"Okay! General Zhao is full of fighting spirit, and I am very pleased. I will let your troops attack the city tomorrow!" Li Ye smiled and looked at everyone, "Do you have any objections?"

Yang Fuguang and Zhou Ji looked at what they wanted to say, but they didn't say anything. Attacking Tongguan, letting Pinglu Army go first, so what would Li Keyong's Yanmen Army do? But since Li Ye agreed to Zhao Polu's request, he wanted to take the credit for breaking Tongguan. At this time, Yang Fuguang and Zhou Ji were not good at disobeying Li Ye's intentions.

Wang Duo smiled and said, "Your Highness's good generals are like clouds. I admire General Zhao's heroic posture very much."

Li Keyong immediately said, "There is no objection in the end."

Seeing that everyone's opinions were not divided, Li Ye was very satisfied and decided to decide who would attack first tomorrow. The most important problem of this war was solved. The next thing was the Yanmen Army camping and the two armies were all trivial matters.

Li Ye looked at Wang Duo, Li Keyong and others, all with satisfaction on his face, and he sneered in his heart.

When the Japanese army dispersed, everyone returned to the camp. It was still early, so Li Keyong returned to the Yanmen Army to rectify the troops and set up camps.

On the second day, the Pinglu Army went to Tongguan, and Li Ye, Wang Duo, Li Keyong and others all came to the front to observe the battle situation. Although Li Keyong did not have combat missions today, he was the leader of the 200,000 Yanmen Army, so he naturally had to pay attention to the progress of the battle situation, and even Li Ye could not drive him down.

"Tongguan and Jingu are in a corner, covering each other. If you want to attack Tongguan, you must attack the Twelve cities of Jingu at the same time, otherwise you will inevitably be restrained." Li Ye rode his horse in front of the formation, pointed at Tongguan and said, and turned around and said, "Let Liu Dazheng lead his troops to attack Jingu."

The messenger left.

Li Ye asked Zhao Polu again, who was following him: "How is General Zhao prepared?"

Zhao Polu clasped his fists and said, "The last general can attack the city at any time!"

Li Ye nodded with satisfaction, without saying anything more, and looked up at Tongguan among the cliffs in the mountains. Tongguan didn't look big and could not compare with Dengzhou City. It was impossible for the Pinglu army to attack the city to fight thousands or tens of thousands of people at the same time.

The passage here is narrow, and it can only accommodate a horse and a cart road. How many soldiers can a row accommodate in one row? Therefore, this battle is supplemented by ordinary soldiers, and the elite monks quickly approach the city and fight at the city.

Tongguan is wide outside and narrow inside. Zhao Polu leads his troops to drive forward. There are dozens of soldiers behind him, and there are only a dozen soldiers in the front row. Now the soldiers are holding shields, and the elite battle formation composed of monks is right in front, ready to take action at any time.

There are many soldiers on the top of Tongguan City, densely packed with soldiers. There are also many monks gathered on it, and their aura is faintly emitted.

After Li Ye and Liu Dazheng started fighting, they ordered Zhao Polu to attack the city.

Zhao Polu drew his sword and unsheathed it, and ordered the soldiers to fight. The iron armored torrent rushed towards Tongguan. In a moment, a dense rain of arrows tilted down at the top of the city. When the soldiers rushed to the top of the city, various magic tricks smashed down from the top of the city, fireballs and sword energy were everywhere.

Li Ye and others were behind the formation, watching Zhao Polu lead their troops to attack the city. With such a terrain, it was difficult for the soldiers to even approach the city wall because the passage was too narrow. The soldiers rushed again and again, but they still had to leave many bodies because of too much casualties every time, and retreated, and continued to organize the next attack.

After half an hour of watching, the Pinglu army had suffered a lot of casualties, but even the ladder was not put on the city wall, and they returned several times without success.

When Li Keyong saw this scene, he looked calm, but there was a smile in his eyes. He glanced at Huiming. The other party was already closing his eyes to rest. Such a battle situation probably had no meaning to Huiming. Li Keyong knew very well that Zhao Polu might not have any effect even if he attacked the city like this.

The only way is to constantly consume the rock-beating wood and arrowheads on the city. After these things are consumed, they will send elite monks to the field. However, even at that time, Zhao Polu could not break the city. After all, the other party still had monks from the real human realm.

Li Ye looked at it for a while, and remained silent, asking Zhao Polu to continue to attack the city, and then he returned to the camp.

The war continued, but there was no need for command, so Li Ye didn't need to stay there and watch it all the time.

In this way, a day passed and Tongguan was safe and sound. Zhao Polu could even count the number of times he put the ladder on the city wall. When the night army was discussing, Zhao Polu asked for anger and continued to attack Tongguan tomorrow. Li Ye agreed to his request.

Liu Dazheng's progress is quite good. He has already removed two Lianchengs in the Forbidden Valley. The Twelve Lianchengs of the Forbidden Valley are said to be Liancheng, of course, they are not cities like Dengzhou, but just small square cities. A square city can only hold up to a few hundred people, and the small ones can only accommodate dozens of people.

However, relying on the dangerous terrain, it is still very difficult to fight against mountain passes, high points, intersections and other terrain. Liu Dazheng pulled two out in one day, which is a very good record.

Li Ye encouraged Liu Dazheng and asked him to continue tomorrow.

The second day of the siege was almost repeated on the first day. Zhao Polu, who attacked Tongguan, had hundreds of soldiers under his command, and he suffered serious injuries. This was because he led a group of Qi training wizards and rushed straight to the top of the city and was besieged by the other party.

Liu Dazheng made quite smooth progress and captured two more cities.

However, from the third day, Liu Dazheng's progress was delayed, from pulling two cities a day to pulling one city a day, to being unable to pull one city a few days. After he captured seven Liancheng, the Fangcheng behind him could not be captured.

"The terrain of the twelve consecutive cities of the Forbidden Valley is very dangerous, even if it is not much worse than that of Tongguan itself. Our soldiers fought bloody battles every day, with heavy casualties, but they still could not capture the city." During the military discussion, Liu Dazheng replied in awe.

Li Ye didn't say much and sent someone to replace him. Zhao Polu had a few days of siege in the city, but there was no obvious result. Li Ye replaced him too.

Li Keyong initially went to observe the battle situation every day, but after the fifth day, he never went again. Because it was useless to see, it was impossible for the Pinglu army to capture Tongguan.

Through the observations over the past few days, Li Keyong has already figured out that although the proportion of monks in Li Ye's army is more than that of ordinary troops, it is limited, and cannot be compared with the Yanmen army. The Pinglu army is indeed brave and has quite excellent armor, but it is stronger than the ordinary vassal army.

"It is impossible for such an army to capture Tongguan, and giving him another month is useless. Tongguan is not the Tongguan when Huang Chao entered the pass. It is very strong and has Taoist masters." On the night of the tenth day, Li Keyong said to Huiming in the big tent.

He was quite proud. After all, after seeing the situation of the Pinglu Army, his Yanmen Army became more and more elite after comparing it. This shows that in the future, the Pinglu Army would definitely not be able to seize Li Keyong's military merits. Then the great achievements of this war were the Yanmen Army. Li Keyong could not be unhappy.

Huiming said lightly: "King An attacked Tongguan for several days, just one move. When he breathed this, he would know that no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to capture Tongguan in the short term. Then he would ask the general to come on the field. General, please remember that when that time, the general must seize Tongguan within three days, otherwise Li Ye would try his best to let the general fall."

Li Keyong didn't care: "Don't worry, Master, I know what I know."

On this day, he was studying in Li Ye’s tent. Yang Fuguang came to pay a visit. Li Ye stood up to greet him.

After the two of them sat down, Yang Fuguang said worriedly: "Tongguan is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Huang Chao has arranged heavy troops here. It is indeed not a matter of time to capture it. Pinglu army has been attacking for more than ten days and the losses are quite heavy. Is it the Yanmen army next? We can't let them keep watching the show, let them attack for a few days, and then the Zhongwu army will attack for a few days. It's almost time. Pinglu army will take over again. What does your Highness think?"
