Chapter 8513
Four Elephants City.

Qiu Muliang frowned.

In fact, he was still worried.

Even with General Yan Junning around, he was still uneasy.

the reason is simple.

Yan Junning can only be regarded as a well-regulated general, not a famous general.

If you give him enough soldiers and horses to deploy defenses.

Most of the time, he can arrange it in an orderly manner without leaving too many loopholes.

But the problem now is that most of the court's troops, the capital, and the troops that can be mobilized near the Sixiang City have already been deployed to the front line.

There are not many left to fight.

At the time of the founding of the dynasty, there were many vacancies for guard soldiers at this time, and few could fight.

"How many soldiers can the Four Elephant City send out?"

Yan Junning asked.

"Ten thousand!"

Qiu Muliang stretched out a finger.

"Only 1 people?"

Yan Junning's eyebrows twitched.

"How come there are so few people?"

Yan Junning found it hard to understand.

"There are only so many. This is only after I took office in Sixiang City, after rectification. Before, there were not even more than 1 people who could fight."

A trace of bitterness flashed in Qiu Muliang's eyes.

"The guards in Sixiang City are all rotten. When I first came, the gentry nearby occupied more than half of the guard's land, and the guards became half of their slaves."

"Needless to say that there are vacancies and unpaid wages, but there are actually 80-year-old men and five-year-old children in this guard. It's ridiculous."

"Under the pressure, I rectified a lot, killed many people, and offended many people. Only then did I save 1 people, and I asked the imperial court to command Xiang Renyu to come to Sixiang City to prepare for training. These 1 people will recruit more troops to expand the army..."

"But before it's too late, such a big event broke out again."

Qiu Muliang sighed and shook his head.

In front of others, he is an iron-blooded and ruthless sheriff, but in front of his colleagues, he doesn't need to hide his worries.

"Ten thousand is 1 people, plus the 1 people I brought, exactly 2 people..."

"It's enough, 2 people is enough!" Yan Junning suddenly smiled.

"Twenty thousand against fifty or sixty thousand, is it really okay?"

Qiu Muliang is not good at fighting, but in terms of numbers alone, our side is indeed inferior.

Although fighting can not only depend on the number of people, but also depends on the personal ability of the commander.

However, Qiu Muliang is not very optimistic about Yan Junning and Xiang Renyu.

Yan Junning is a successful general, while Xiang Renyu is a fierce general who rushes to kill. Neither of them is a commander-in-chief, they can only be generals, not commander-in-chief.

On the enemy's side, if they could come up with a surprise attack on the Four Elephant City, there must be a powerful commander in command.

Think about it, there are only a few handsome talents with this prestige who can command three different forces.

But no matter which one it is, its ability must be higher than that of Qiu Muliang and Xiang Renyu.

"If it's me, I'm afraid it won't be very successful."

"In front of Mr. Qiu, I will not hide my words... Although I come from the Jiangmen family, my personal ability is mediocre, far inferior to my sister Yan Huanyan's."

"Therefore, it is not me who is leading the 2 people in this battle of the four elephants, but someone else. The imperial court will appoint a general to lead the battle."

Yan Junning gave an answer that surprised Qiu Muliang.

"Who? Which adult?"

Qiu Muliang asked immediately.

In the past, he would not have asked, but now, he seemed a little impatient.

After all, what this lord has to do is too important.

"do not know."

Yan Junning shook his head and said.

"How could this be? Didn't the imperial court say who they were?" Qiu Muliang said in shock.

"I didn't say anything, I just told me to get ready, the general will definitely come."

"The imperial court will not deceive us. The battle of the Four Elephants is too important. Your majesty, the elders must be cautious. They will send suitable candidates." Yan Junning said.

"Then you can only trust the court."

When Qiu Muliang thought about it, he felt that he had no other way, except to trust the imperial court.

"The battle of the four elephants, in my opinion, is comparable to the battle of establishing a country."

"If this battle can be won, Beili, Dameng, and the Yang family of Bozhou will all be greatly damaged. And through this battle, the imperial court can rectify the internal affairs..."

"In this way, there is hope for Daqi Zhongxing."

Yan Junning raised his eyebrows.

In fact, not only Yan Junning, but also Qiu Muliang can see that the battle of the Four Elephants is indeed an extremely important battle.

Whether he wins or not is even related to Daqi's future.

If this battle is lost, Da Qi will be in danger.

"Da Qi will definitely win, I have decided to live and die with Sixiang City!"

Qiu Mu said lightly.

Although his voice was flat, the firmness revealed in his tone was beyond doubt.

"Same."

Yan Junning nodded with an extremely serious expression.

As a general, he had no choice but to fight to the death in the face of the battle of the Four Elephants, which was about the future fate of Da Qi.

……

on the hill.

Bei Litu was sitting astride his horse, looking back at the mountain.

The huge Hengduan Mountains looked like a giant dragon crawling on the ground.

Behind him, there are many people standing.

Everyone looked dusty and embarrassed.

But they are very energetic and vigorous.

"We've made it through, Lieutenant General Li, how many people have we crossed the mountain now?" Beilitu asked.

Vice General Li Weili is a tall and burly man, but he is very delicate, which is why he can achieve the position of Vice General, and he does not rely entirely on fighting.

"There are about 3000 people, and there are about 6000 people behind. When the back team arrives, we will have 2 people."

"Where are the horses?" Bei Litu asked.

"There are only more than 1000 horses, which is not easy." The lieutenant bowed his head.

"More than 1000 horses... let's make do with them. They will provide us with horses when we meet up with our friendly forces."

Bei Litu frowned, and then let go.

"Go and gather people together, the king will give you a lecture." Bei Litu ordered.

"Yes."

Afterwards, Li Weili quickly conveyed the order, and some noisy sergeants began to organize the team.

"Soldiers, this king is Beilitu."

"We've just accomplished an almost impossible task."

"We conquered the Hengduan Mountains and made it through successfully."

"However, we also personally cut off our own retreat."

"From now on, we will go forward indomitable!"

"Charge, charge, charge, target, Daqi Sixiang City!"

After finishing his speech, Bei Litu took his subordinates and left the place quickly.

When the nearby scouts arrived, there were only traces of people and horses staying here, and they came a step late.

In fact, the possibility of arriving in time is very small.

With so many exits from the Hengduan Mountains, who knows where they came from.

Yan Junning could only deploy scouts wherever possible.
