Chapter 743 The Rainbow In The 12Th Year Of The Qing Calendar 1 (1/2)

It rained in Jingdou of the Qing Kingdo of Northern Qi The small snowflakes floated slowly and beautifully in the air, filling the air with a chill andthe temperature drop to a level that irritated hueneral of the garrison division responsible for Northern Qi's southern line of defense, Shang Shanpo, looked at the southwest plains with an indifferent expression There was no snow accumulated on the plains, so it was still possible to see the black and hibernating fertile soil His gaze pierced through the layers of wind and snow to land on the sole Army, which had continued to exist for numerous decades

The banners there fluttered and snapped in the wind The barracks stretched onward An endless and boundless blackness halted silently in the wind and snow It was like a te at anyCae border ar this period of tih three lines of defense the Northern Qi army had laid down They swept north like a prairie fire, killing countless Northern Qi soldiers along the way They had reached a place 20 li in front of the Nanjing defensive line and were taking a break and regrouping

It seemed that the bloodiest and cruelest city attack between the terful kingdo Shanpo couldn't resist narrowing his eyes and stroking his palently across the knife sheath at his side He looked at his subordinates around hiuarding weapons in the cold air He felt the tense and panicked ath

Hundreds of thousands of Qing Iron Riders had reached thedo could it last?

Shang Shanpo shook his head and issued a series of military orders to his subordinate officers He then turned and walked off the city wall and came to the front line camp temporarily set up at the foot of the city walls

This cauarded outside by his own personal guards No one was allowed to co Shanpo saw awith an air that intihtforwardly, he took a knee and said in a low voice, ”Father, it see Zhikun was terrified by the ao He shouldn't start an attack on the city in the next three days

Everyone in the world thought that the pillar of the Northern Qi do Shanhu, was still with his soldiers in the city of the Song Kingdoht that right before the great battle of Nanjing was about to start, this , to Nanjing?

Shang Shanhu's thick black brows trehtly After aZhikun is a bit conservative in directing soldiers, he is not a coward Otherwise, the Qing E soldiers for more than a decade The harasse In reality, he is like a turtle He hasn't been te Shanpo listened to his father's voice buzzing around the tent A glimmer of respect and admiration appeared naturally in his eyes His father had secretly returned to Nanjing soo to prepare for the battle that was about to co soldiers like a God and using three lines of defenses to slice through, it would not have taken the Qing Iron Riders until now to reach Nanjing

”wang Zhikun is extree, and theirthe city on the plains” Shang Shanpo couldn't help but curse out loud when he thought of this

”One hopes for achieve Zhikun's strengths lie,” Shang Shanhu suddenly withdrew his gaze frohed and said, ”For the Qing Kingdoenerals They cannot be bullied by limmer of exhaustion suddenly appeared on the face of Northern Qi's fado because he could not be assured of the defense there Once the Qing Iron Riders broke through the Nanjing defensive line, the heart of the Northern Qi court would be directly in front of the carnage fro Shanhu had basically split hiht he was in the city in the Song Kingdom and were probably absolutely terrified He was secretly in Nanjing organizing this line of defense There was only Shang Shanhu Using this method, he could de Shanhu

Faced with the Qing army's strict military discipline, first-rate military weapons, and the unusual battle power of a 100,000 soldiers, nosoldiers, he still could not relax This time, it was not a battlefield operation It was a head-on collision between two countries at the Nanjing defense line In the end, it was still a battle of national power and aura

Shang Shanhu was not afraid of wang Zhikun He understood his counterpart in the South too well to be afraid of hie of Northern Qi's Southern aze had been focused the entire tidou far away to the South He had always thought he understood the Qing Eoing to invade North, logically speaking, they would gather the strength of the entire country to strike They would pull together at least three Roads of border soldiers and forcefully push forith unstoppable strength

However, there were only two Roads of border soldiers outside Nanjing It see Shanhu narrowed his eyes slightly, which were filled orry He wondered what exactly the ruler in the South was thinking about Was there some trick that he didn't see? Could he still hold onto this territory?

Confidence was the do Shanhu did not have the confidence of a definitive victory He believed that he could hold back the opponent'scould he hold the Shanhu's heart He suddenly remembered the secret letter the E that Fan Xian of the Qing Kingdodou by now Was the fate of the Qi Kingdo E E Shanhu observed the Qing , Coaze to look at the large city in the distance through the wind and snow fro as they could break through this city, thearmy could kill their way into the heart of Northern Qi At that tih they still had to face the two lines of defense in front of Shangjing, presumably, it would much easier than what they were faced with

They still had to defend against Shang Shanhu in the Song Kingdoh the strength of the Qing military was steady, they lacked the air of bravery as when they expanded territory in the past

”When does shi+ Fei arrive?” wang Zhikun asked A deputy general at his side did not even have to think and answered straight away, ”The general should arrive at the end of April”

wang Zhikun nodded in approval At the beginning of this Northern expedition, the E Shanhu inside the distant Nanjing, wang Zhikun sometimes felt that the Emperor's boldness this time could not compare to the past His confidence in the Emperor had never weakened

The Emperor wanted to send shi+ Fei to take control of the wild soldiers of the Northern Caative e his achievements or think that the Emperor did not trust hieneral in the past

Furthermore, the Northern expedition this tieneral dared to hope they could achieve such an acco Zhikun occasionally thought that at least he was better off than Commander Ye, whose status was too respected Coive orders frodou and could not personally lead troops

HowZhikun stood at the entrance to the tent and allowed the snowflakes to fall on his ar in the distance, thinking that his feet were actually already standing on Northern Qi territory With this thought, boundless powerful e for more than a decade for the Emperor for the sake of this moment The rets were there in life?

Suddenly, a coldness flashed through wang Zhikun's eyes as his body slightly treh it was very cold, there were no probleistics ora powerful sense of unease in his heart Sir Fan junior had returned to Jingdou Would the Eht?

There was a mountain stream atop the ainst The mountain stream flowed down reen stones piled to the side The clear water in the pool would flon the purposely excavated opening toward the outside of the Palace

The Northern Qi Eon robe underneath His brows, as sharp as swords, were raised slightly His lips were tightly pressed together He sat like this beside the opening in the pool and was silent for a long ti stood at his side with her back to hi out of the pool all the way until it reached the outside of the beautiful Palace, a slow- in the winter

Before the Dong Mountain incident, Master Ku He had talked with the es He left easily and, in the end, returned in a decrepit state, dying when his ti Emperor

The Northern Qi court was faced with the threat of the powerful ruler to the South again The threat this ti Iron Riders had stepped onto the path to invade the North No one knehen they would reach this old capital city and set alight this beautiful Royal Palace
