Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 398
"Yes, the mask must be worn before leaving the dense forest. If it is necessary to take off the mask, the time should not be too long."

Li Ke looked at the compass in his hand.

At this time, the direction of the pointer was wobbling, and it was impossible to point out the direction.

I think there are many mineral deposits here, which affect the magnetic field.

"Your Highness?"

Seeing Li Ke frowning, Chu Feng felt worried.

They are okay, but if something happens to His Highness the King of Shu, let alone the emperor, even the people of Shu can drown him with spittle.

Li Ke showed a mysterious smile, and under Chu Feng's gaze, he took out a compass from his arms.

It's still good to use from the ancestors.

Following the instructions of the compass, Li Ke led the crowd to move forward rapidly in the dense forest.

After walking for almost two days, it can be regarded as seeing people.

There is a village ahead, and smoke is curling up from the cooking pots.

The arrival of Li Ke and others made the village lively, and all the villagers came to watch the excitement.

Their village is remote and few outsiders come here.

After Li Kewen understood the direction, he asked the village name to lead the way, let Chu Feng go back to Qujing first, inform Su Dingfang, and attack Wenshan directly.

He went to attack Kunming. After Chu Feng led his people to join him, Li Ke set off immediately.

Chu Feng received the order and went straight to Kunming, while Li Ke made a detour and went straight to the back of Kunming.

Nanzhao Kingdom, inside the palace meeting hall.

"They're all a bunch of trash! What's the use of raising them?"

Nanzhao Emperor Xi Nuluo shouted angrily, and he threw out the secret report in his hand angrily.

However, he still didn't let go of his anger, he swung his sleeve violently, and everything on the table in front of him was swept to the ground.

Immediately, the tea and documents were mixed together, and all of them were scrapped.

After a while, Xi Nuluo's mood eased down.

"Come here, go and call me General Rong."

Xi Nuluo ordered that even if Qujing fell, he couldn't just give up.

"Yes."

The servant responded immediately, and hurriedly withdrew to publicize the edict.

"Meet Your Majesty."

As soon as General Rong entered the hall, he immediately kowtowed.

Xi Nuluo raised his head and threw a token that had been prepared on the table to General Rong.

"I will give you [-] elite soldiers. You will lead the army and set off immediately to support Luo Xingluo in Kunming Mansion without any delay."

Xi Nuluo ordered in a cold voice, Kunming must be kept first, and then Qujing, which has been lost.

"Yes, I obey."

General Rong held the token tightly and took the order to go.

"You all back down too."

Xi Nuluo supported his forehead and ordered.I only hope that these 5 people can relieve the crisis of Kunming Mansion and recover Qujing.

"Yes."

All the servants serving in the house responded, bowed and retreated.

When only Xi Nuluo was left in the hall, a dark figure appeared in front of Xi Nuluo and saluted respectfully.

"What's the situation in Sichuan? Why hasn't there been any news?"

Xi Nuluo frowned. After the saint of the Miao tribe was taken away by the people of the King of Shu, no news came back.

The secret guard received the news that the poisonous plague in Chongning County had not spread, and not even a single person had died.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, news has come back from Shu that the saint is dead."

The dark guard reported directly.

"really."

Xi Nuluo pondered.

Based on his knowledge of Li Ke, if the saint fell into his hands, [-]% would not survive.

"Tell the Miao tribe the news that the saint was killed by Li Ke."

Xinuluo ordered that since it was Li Ke who killed the Miao saint, the revenge should be avenged by the Miao people.

The secret guard took the order, but his sight disappeared.

Li Ke led the army and marched all the way. It took about two days to reach the back of Kunming Mansion.

At that time, they can attack Kunming Mansion at the same time with Chu Feng in a pincer attack.

"His Royal Highness, a hundred miles ahead, there are about [-] Nanzhao troops, and the destination is Kunming Mansion."

The scout team reported.

The [-] Nanzhao troops went straight to Kunming Mansion, and they should be the reinforcements sent by Nanzhao.

In the battle with the Zhang Zhung Kingdom, the Nanzhao Kingdom could still send [-] soldiers, which shows that it also has a lot of strength.

But supporting Kunming is a pretty good idea.

He wants to cut off the reinforcements and eat the fifty thousand soldiers.

After some arrangements and deployments, the 5000 people brought by Li Ke were all hidden.

The opponent has [-] soldiers, if they attack hard, they may not be able to win all of them.

The general who led the [-] Nanzhao troops to the rescue of Kunming immediately accelerated his speed after learning that the Tang army had already rushed to Kunming.

But he didn't make it, when he reached a mountain depression.

There were bursts of roaring sounds, and the thunder from the sky rushed towards the Nanzhao army like a violent storm.

Even the bows and crossbows were fired together, and rolling stones fell from the cliffs on the left and right.

All of a sudden, in the depression, there were wailing sounds all over the place, it was very miserable.

Before the chief general who led the army understood what was going on, he was pierced by an arrow feather through his chest.

This arrow was shot by Li Ke. He has Lv Bu's martial spirit and his arms are extremely strong.

The arrow feathers directly pierced the general's chest, and his whole body was also carried away by the huge strength.

"General!"

The guards shouted loudly, but looking at the Nanzhao general again, he had already fallen to the ground.

He widened his eyes, unwillingly pointing his finger in the direction of the arrow feather, but in the end he could only let it go.

The attacks of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty did not stop, and the soldiers took turns to shoot and kill with continuous bows and crossbows.

The Nanzhao soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

But [-] sergeants is not a small number, most of them have not yet entered the col.

Now hearing that the front was being attacked, these Nanzhao soldiers followed their respective generals and went straight to the Datang soldiers on the mountain.

But Li Ke had been prepared for a long time, and they took action, and there were already soldiers from the Tang Dynasty attacking from behind.

The sergeants of the Tang Dynasty who attacked were all cavalry, holding spears in their hands. After charging, no Nanzhao soldiers could stop them.

Moreover, their actions were well coordinated and they quickly dispersed the Nanzhao sergeants.

Some Nanzhao soldiers who tried to escape were handed over one by one by the ambush personnel arranged by Li Ke.

After Li Ke beheaded the main general of Nanzhao, he used his healing skills and bathed in holy light.

The minor injuries of all the soldiers have all recovered, and he used Renai Wudi again, directly adding a short-term crit bonus to everyone.

All of a sudden, the bravery of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty surged, killing the soldiers of the Nanzhao army, who dared to resist in the slightest.

Soon, the battle is over.

Li Ke rode on and looked at the Nanzhao sergeants who had been arrested and terrified.

Captives are also productivity.

"Are you voluntary soldiers?"

Li Ke asked.

He didn't know the situation of conscription in Nanzhao Kingdom, so he asked this question.

"Go back, sir. I didn't do it voluntarily."

"Neither do I."

"I was arrested."

"Woooo...I was just going to sell some things, and I was taken to the barracks."

……

Everyone who heard Li Ke's question said quickly.

They really didn't do it voluntarily. After all, they lived a good life, so why would they want to be a soldier?
What's more, after serving as a soldier, it is inevitable that there will be casualties.

If you are lucky, you can save a life, but if you are unlucky, you may not even be able to transport the body back.
