Mo Qifeng ordered camping on the spot and wait for the arrival of 30,000 infantry in the 11th Legion. Although the battle was not going well, the officers and soldiers of the Tattoo Army still had optimistic expectations for the entire battle situation.
The Qi army was very unhappy: because when the enemy was trapped and the number of our own troops was three times that of the enemy, their casualties were far greater than those of the enemy. If it weren't for those magical elixir girls, all the minor and serious wounded people could quickly return to the battlefield, then the losses of personnel in this battle would be four times the losses of the Taming Army. This result could be called a "disastrous defeat"!
Therefore, almost all the soldiers of the Qi army were pessimistic about the prospects of the war. They knew very well that the powerful cavalry of the Eleventh Legion was only a small part of the Ting** power, while the Qi army participating in this battle was almost all the troops that Qi could fight! Not to mention the other powerful legions of the Ting Kingdom, just relying on the upcoming 30,000 infantry of the 11th Legion, and after the 14,000 remaining cavalry after the war today, it has made it difficult for the Qi army to deal with!
What the Qi army can count most now is the solid fortifications and defensive weapons in Jilang Pass.
.
Julang Pass is the most important barrier in the northwest of Linzi, Qi capital. When it was first built by the Shang Kingdom more than 900 years ago, it was used to resist the barbaric Hu people in the north. Since its establishment, Julang Pass has been destroyed by wars and has been severely damaged many times and has been rebuilt. In these battles that have been experienced over 900 years, there have been no less than twenty battles with more than 100,000 people on both sides of the offensive and defensive side, seven of which were broken, but more often the attackers from the north were abandoned and returned. The closest battle to the present was conquered by the Yan ** team of up to 150,000 forty years ago.
Julang Pass was built on Julang Mountain, 30 meters high. It is like a small city. It has all kinds of living and combat facilities, which can accommodate more than 100,000 defenders for a long time. Julang Mountain has been cut into steep slopes, revealing hard and neat rocks. The city wall and the facilities in the city are all made of thick stones, which are extremely sturdy. The top of the city wall is five meters wide, and the interior of the city wall is hollow, which can accommodate a large number of defenders and equipment.
The house where Lu Jing and Sylvia live is actually a hole dug on the hillside of a stone mountain, with all kinds of living facilities inside and outside the house. Whether day or night, two guards guarded outside his door to protect him.
One morning four days later, Sylvia had just left the stone house and rushed to the healing center. Over the past few days, after the magical fragrance treatment of the Lingyao girls, not only all the minor wounded had recovered, but the seriously injured who were supposed to be struggling on the brink of death were all out of danger, and new arms and legs were grown in parts of missing arms and legs. The whole army was very grateful to the Lingyao girls and treated them like treasure fairies.
Lu Jing sat alone in the stone house, carefully reading a book called "The Thousand Years of War of the Julang Pass" made of top-quality sheepskin. Every Qi general has a book, which records the detailed process of each large and small battle since the completion of Julang Pass more than 900 years ago. The book carefully describes and analyzes the experiences and lessons of every battle in all aspects.
After the end of the infantry and cavalry war four days ago, Lu Jing did the most, except for eating, sleeping and practicing qigong, and being asked by the girls of the elixir to have fun several times a day, he was to read this book "The Thousand Years of War of the Julang Pass", inspect the war preparations everywhere, and compare the current situation with the records in the book. He and Jiang Weiyan and other generals believed that the current construction of fortifications was not the best period in history, but there was nothing to do about it. Because the things that could be done in just one month of emergency repairs were really limited, not to mention that the stones could only be transported from far away, and could not be taken directly from Julang Mountain. Because if you were to quarrel in Julang Mountain, you would be destroying the pass rather than building the pass.
.
Lu Jing heard a familiar footstep outside the house, and then a guard said, "Miss Mint, you are here again. I am very happy when I see you!"
A girl who was not very fluent in speaking said, "Get out of the way, I want to go in!" Lu Jing heard that the voice was rescued by himself from the sword of the Taming Army Commander during the battle in the north of the city four days ago, and rode a horse together, watching the mint girls who killed several Taming Army cavalry.
The guard said again: "Miss Mint, the clothes you are wearing today are really beautiful. With your snow-white skin, delicate figure, and green hair, it is like a fairy descending to earth, and it looks better than the other eighty girls of the elixir..."
The Mint girl interrupted the guard angrily and said loudly: "Lie! You said the same to the watermelon sister, barbecue sister, and orange sister. Don't think I don't know!"
"Ah! Well... but you didn't wear this pink dress at that time." The guard quickly lied to himself: "As soon as you wear this dress, the other girls will not be as beautiful as you."
The Mint girl was very unhappy and spat at the soldier, then said, "The first time I was playing with you, you clearly said that I looked better than wearing any clothes. Don't think I don't remember it! Get out of the way and let me see Lu Jing, otherwise I will hit you!"
The guard next to him who was not talking couldn't help laughing.
The guard who spoke before hurriedly said, "General Lu is very busy. He is studying how to fight. If I let you in now, he will punish me!"
Lu Jing heard a "punch" sound, as if the Mint Girl punched the guard. Then he heard the Mint Girl angrily say, "You are talking nonsense again! General Lu tells me every time: As long as I like, I can find him at any time, and he will always like to play with me!"
"Big, Mint Girl, look at this jewelry. I bought it specifically for you. I spent two gold coins...ah! Don't throw it away!" the soldier exclaimed.
Then a sound of jewelry falling to the ground sounded.
The soldier's voice sounded again: "Miss Mint, I have learned a lot of new tricks from my comrades recently. It will definitely make you have a lot of fun, happier than we had the previous few times. All the girls I played with are very satisfied with me. Do you want to try it too... Ah! Oh! Ah!" A sound of punching and kicking people's body sounded, accompanied by the soldier's exaggerated cry of pain.
The soldier shouted helplessly: "Okay, okay, don't hit it! Don't hit it! I'll report it to you now!" Then he walked into the living room of the stone house.
"Report to General Lu!" the soldier said loudly.
Lu Jing said helplessly: "Come in and talk." The guard walked in and saluted Lu Jing.
The guard is named Zheng Ruiyuan, with a very handsome appearance and a tall and handsome figure. In recent days, Lu Jing specially found a few handsome soldiers as his guards, with the purpose of blocking and attracting those elixir girls who are extremely demanding of him. Most of the time, the handsome guards can effectively block or attract the elixir girls, but there are many examples of failure, especially this mint girl. She came to Lu Jing the most, but the number of times she was blocked or attracted by the elixir guard was zero! The officers and soldiers of Qi army and migrant workers talked about this kind of thing as jokes. When they made fun of it at the beginning, they also had many envy and jealous elements, but later, they really had more sympathy.
