Chapter 270 The Qingzhou Army Arrives

Li Qian and his entourage were marching quickly towards the nearby city of Shanggui.

Although Li Qian has the trump card of the side chariot formation, it is still not as good as the tall city wall.

"My lord, a large number of enemy soldiers have been spotted in the north!"

"The Northern Alliance still has heavy troops nearby. Let's march southward."

Li Qian did not expect that the follow-up troops of the Northern Alliance would catch up so quickly, so he chose to avoid their attack.

"My lord, enemy cavalry spotted in the south!"

“There are also some in the west!”

"There's an enemy in the east!"

The spies came back one after another to report at night.

The country was surrounded on all sides, and the Northern Alliance's troops were everywhere.

King Zhongwu became furious and sent all the troops of the Northern Alliance to attack, determined to kill Li Qian.

According to the information brought back by Ye Bushu who had been out, there were armies of the Northern Alliance coming from all directions, and these armies were charging towards Li Qian and his men, forming a siege.

"My lord, the situation is urgent. We have no choice but to form camp and fight."

Du Ruhui had a bad feeling that something was wrong, so he reminded Li Qian to prepare for battle in time.

"Line up along the mountain!"

Li Qian shouted loudly, and the soldiers under his command immediately relied on the terrain and arranged the side carriages into a half-moon shape, forming a Que Yue formation.

Li Qian's troops had already experienced many battles and were busy preparing.

Li Qian not only brought a side carriage, but also a bed crossbow.

These crossbows combined with the side carriages look like iron hedgehogs.

The archers and crossbowmen count the arrows that can be used. They are the key to defending the side chariot formation.

Li Qian and other generals took the time to recover their strength.

The cold wind was howling as 18,000 soldiers were patiently waiting for the arrival of a powerful enemy.

Mu Guiying used accumulated snow to wipe the precious sword Daxia Longque.

The scarlet sword looked like a scalding flame, extremely majestic.

This is the exclusive weapon of the Huxia Emperor Helian Bobo, and it is also the first weapon with a force of +8 that Li Qian has seen so far.

Soon after Li Qian's Queyue Formation was set up, a sea of heads surged at the end of the sight. The rebels gathered from all directions, and the beast totem battle flags of the Northern Alliance fluttered, filled with murderous aura.

The cold wind was biting, and the Northern Alliance army attacked in the wind and snow, which was enough to show their anger.

If Li Qian had not repeatedly ruined their plans, they would have already broken through Chencang, occupied the city, and then marched into Guanzhong.

"There are at least 200,000 bandit soldiers, no, 300,000. They are endless."

Cheng Yaojin was carrying the pear blossom axe, and even he looked solemn at this moment.

The number of rebels in Liangzhou is simply too large.

The Northern Alliance absorbed a group of Liangzhou players who joined the rebels.

There are tens of thousands of these Liangzhou players.

Moreover, some Liangzhou players who joined the rebels were lord players and owned territories. They recruited soldiers and gathered into an astonishing number of rebels.

Although not all the troops of the Northern Alliance are here, the army led by King Xingwu looks very spectacular. It is not known whether there are 200,000 or 300,000 soldiers, covering the entire battlefield.

Li Qian took a deep breath.

He had only 18000 soldiers under his command, but he might be facing an army of or even , which was ten or fifteen times his size.

The rebels of the Northern Alliance are not just the most common low-level soldiers such as sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, archers, light cavalry, etc. They also have special soldiers such as the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Huangzhong Yicong Hu, and Qiang warriors.

Their troops were five times Li Qian's, and Li Qian was already struggling. If they were ten times Li Qian's, Li Qian's pressure would increase dramatically.

If there were fifteen or even twenty times the number of troops, we would be in danger of death.

The Northern Alliance's 300,000-strong army trapped Li Qian's Queyue Formation at the foot of the mountain.

If Li Qian had not formed his battle array with his back to the mountain, he would not have been surrounded on three sides, but on all sides.

Even Xiang Yu, the King of Western Chu, could not escape the situation of being besieged on all sides.

Although the number of people in the Northern Alliance was ten times that of Li Qian, they did not dare to act rashly and did not launch an attack immediately.

Previously, Li Qian and Ma Long used the side chariot formation to kill 20,000 cavalrymen of the Northern Alliance, causing the Northern Alliance to be defeated.

After witnessing the terrifying power of the side chariot formation, the Northern Alliance no longer dared to attack the side chariot formation directly, but waited for the order from King Zhongwu.

There was a brief standoff between the two sides, with swords drawn, and they let the snowflakes fall on their armor.

The iron armor was covered with frost, white air was gushing out of the nostrils of the war horses, and they pawed the ground restlessly with their hooves.

The Heavenly King Zhongwu and the Heavenly King Xingwu rode their war horses to the front of the 300,000-strong army of the Northern Alliance and glared at Li Qian fiercely.

It was this person before him who shattered his dream of conquering the world, preventing the Northern Alliance from making any progress and causing one of its deputy leaders to die in battle.

The lance in the hand of the King of Loyalty and Martial Arts broke through the air and pointed at Li Qian in the formation, angrily saying: "Scholar, you killed my brother. If I don't avenge you, I will not be a human being!"

"kill!"

Players from the Northern Alliance slammed their shields with sabers, and the shouts of three hundred thousand people resounded through the heavens and earth.

King Zhongwu wants to avenge the deputy leader King Changwu. In the eyes of everyone in the Northern Alliance, they are a righteous army.

Li Qian responded coldly: "You abandoned your brother and fled alone, but now you want to avenge him. Isn't that contradictory?"

"You...!"

King Zhongwu was so angry after hearing Li Qian's rebuttal that he almost fumed.

The key is that Li Qian hit the nail on the head.

At that time, Zhongwu Heavenly King did leave behind his sworn brother Changwu Heavenly King to cover his retreat, which indirectly led to Changwu Heavenly King's death in battle.

King Zhongmu was unable to refute this point.

The players of the Northern Alliance looked at each other in bewilderment, their morale obviously affected by this.

Not only soldiers have morale, players also have invisible "morale". Once people's hearts are shaken, the subsequent battle will definitely be affected.

Seeing that people were uneasy, King Xingwu shouted loudly: "Don't fall for his evil plan! The deputy leader volunteered to be the last one to protect the leader, and that's why he died in battle. We have ten times more troops than them, so there's no need to be afraid of him, come on!"

"Kill!"

Under the command of the Heavenly King Xingwu, the 300,000-strong Northern Alliance army officially launched an attack, with a massive army array pressing in from three directions...

Not far from where Li Qian was fighting with the Northern Alliance, a troop of soldiers left Shanggui City and also marched towards Jincheng County.

A girl in a white dress as white as snow and silk stockings covered with dust came back from the front and reported: "My lord, it seems that someone is fighting with the rebels ahead."

"Our Qingzhou Army has wasted a lot of time in suppressing the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou and the pirate Guan Cheng. We cannot miss any opportunity to gain military merit."

Qingzhou’s number one lord player, Qingdi, has deep and beautiful eyes. Behind her are 40,000 Qingzhou troops.

These 40,000 Qingzhou troops have not yet engaged in battle with any of the main forces of the Liangzhou rebels. They are well organized and full of energy.

The two brothers Guan Hai, a general of the Yellow Turban Army of Qingzhou, and Guan Cheng, a pirate leader, also appeared among the 40,000 Qingzhou troops.
