Online Game: Barbarism And Civilization

Chapter 1174

The old saying goes: Keeping the river must guard the Huai, and guarding the Huai must guard the Xiang.

From this sentence, it is not difficult to see how important the geographical location of Xiangyang is.

Xiangyang is located at the southernmost end of the Nanyang Basin. The north-south connection needs to pass through here, and the east-west connection also passes through here. The surrounding roads converge here, and it is impossible to detour.

As long as you occupy the Xiangyang area, the entire Nanyang Basin will be within your attack range.

There are many routes to attack the Jiangnan area from north to south, but none of them is comparable to the route starting from Xiangyang.

As long as the city of Xiangyang is captured, the infantry and cavalry of the offensive side can go south unimpeded all the way to Jingzhou.

In addition, the offensive team can also take a boat down the Hanshui all the way to the south, directing their troops directly at Wuhan, an important city in the Yangtze River region.

Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu originally took a fancy to the important strategic position of the Xiangyang area and the rich food production in the Jianghan Plain, so they would go back to the original China Guild Alliance at all costs and bring the entire Hubei All regions are in their hands.

It is precisely because the city of Xiangyang, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is always in the hands of Li Yufeng, Xiao Li Tang’s army can reach Nanyang city at any time.

As long as Li Yufeng is unhappy, then the entire Nanyang Basin will immediately fall into the flames of war, so the Northern Expedition Alliance will tolerate Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu’s reckless recklessness.

As the little ghost valley in the mouth of a player in China, Li Yufeng naturally knows that occupying Xiangyang is equivalent to extending the tip of a sharp knife near the [email protected]花口 of the Northern Expedition Alliance. As long as he gently and hard to pass it forward, then The Northern Expedition Alliance will immediately chrysanthemum @花满地残.

So for a long time, Li Yufeng didn’t show those high-level officials in the Northern Expedition Alliance any good expressions, because he who occupies Xiangyang City has this arrogant and unruly capital.

Although because of the strong rise of the Condor Empire, he and Zhao Guangfu were eventually forced to join the Northern Expedition Alliance and become one of them.

But in Li Yufeng’s heart, he had never regarded himself as a member of the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Because he knew that after Ning Yuan was over, he who occupied Xiangyang would sooner or later have a decisive battle with the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Dao is different and not conspiring, even if he temporarily commits himself to join the Northern Expedition Alliance, Li Yufeng will try his best not to let himself have too many ties with the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Therefore, except for some compelling circumstances, his little Li Tang would hardly take part in any military operations organized by the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Li Yufeng once thought that his powerful self was enough to protect himself, and there would never be a day of turning to the Northern Expedition Alliance for help.

However, the world is unpredictable. After Ning Yuan led the Flying Corps and Monkey Corps to his land to implement a household plan, in order to preserve his own foundation, he finally had to choose to bow to the cruel reality.

……

When the night enveloped the entire Xiangyang city, more than a dozen soldiers dressed as messengers rode out from a military camp in the north of Xiangyang on fast horses. After leaving Xiangyang city, they rushed directly to the north.

In the eyes of the outside world, this is just a group of very ordinary messenger teams sent by Xiangyang City, because in the whole day today, dozens of such teams have rushed out of Xiangyang City.

However, in the eyes of some generals who knew the inside story in Xiangyang City, this was not an ordinary messenger team, because their Majesty Tang Wang Li Yufeng was among the dozen knights.In order to preserve his own foundation and prevent Ning Yuan’s plan of extinction from succeeding, Li Yufeng has now completely sacrificed himself.

He knew that no matter what level of messenger he sent to Nanyang City, it would be hard to tell the two guys in Nanyang.

Only when he personally went over, put himself in front of the opponent and let the opponent slaughter him severely, could it be possible to persuade the two difficult guys to send troops to help him.

Therefore, he could only temporarily hand over the defense of Xiangyang City to Own’s subordinates, and then pretend to be a general communication envoy and rush to Nanyang City to negotiate in person.

Li Yufeng knew that the eyes of the Condor Empire were everywhere in the sky during the day. When going out during the day, even if the Condor Army didn’t know that he was in the team, those blazing angels might launch sudden attacks on them.

Because throughout the day, dozens of messenger teams departing from Xiangyang City have been poisoned by Seraphim’s scouts.

Li Yufeng’s hand now only has one death-free gold medal. He didn’t dare to gamble on his own luck, so he could only choose to hurry up at night.

Because only at night, the blazing angel scouts of the Condor Army will withdraw, and only at night, the night sky above him is not exclusive to a certain force.

After leaving Xiangyang City, Li Yufeng’s team was immediately divided into five. Each of the split teams had three knights, and they walked towards Nanyang City along different roads.

The night without the Seraph is not absolutely safe, because some vampires often appear in the night sky.

Facing the extremely fast vampire patrol, as long as they are targeted, the following will definitely be a trailing attack all the way, and it is difficult for the targeted person to escape.

Li Yufeng divided the team into five, the purpose of which is to let the other four teams help him share the threat from the night sky.

In order to avoid as much as possible the vampire patrol that may appear in the night sky at any time, Li Yufeng took the two guards and chose the farthest route to the east.

I don’t know if the Condor Army was not even prepared to continue to block the messenger team from Xiangyang City at night, or if Li Yufeng had better luck, he finally arrived at Nanyang City without any risk.

After arriving under the gate of Nanyang City, Li Yufeng immediately reported his own identity to the guard on the top of the city.

Hearing that Li Yufeng had come in person, the player in charge of guarding the city gate did not dare to neglect, and immediately invited Li Yufeng, who opened the gate, to enter.

……

The guardian of Nanyang City is named Shui Yun Tian. Just by listening to the name, it’s easy to guess that Yun Shui Tian must have some blood relationship with Shui Ruyan in Shuiyun Pavilion, because the surname Shui is indeed relatively rare. of.

The fact is exactly the same, Shui Yun Tian is the son of Uncle Shui Ruyan, who is regarded as her cousin.

Because Nanyang is close to Xiangyang, the geographical location is very embarrassing. If the Northern Expedition Alliance sends other guild leaders to sit in Nanyang City, it is likely to arouse the vigilance of Li Yufeng, who set the capital of the country in Xiangyang, and cause unnecessary conflicts and even bloodshed. conflict.

So Ye Ziqing and others finally chose Shui Ruyan’s cousin Shui Yun Tian to sit in Nanyang.

Shui Yun Tian represents Shuiyun Pavilion, and Shuiyun Pavilion’s historical policy is that harmony is the most precious. Therefore, if Li Yufeng is not ready to attack Nanyang, Shui Yun Tian’s decision to sit in Nanyang will not easily arouse Li Yufeng’s suspicion.

Sending Shui Yun Tian to Nanyang, this is the Northern Expedition Alliance secretly showing good to Li Yufeng, they want to tell Li Yufeng that the Northern Expedition Alliance is not hostile to him now.

Li Yufeng also understood what the Northern Expedition Alliance wanted to convey, so he didn’t want to take the Nanyang Basin, so he and Shui Yun Tian worked together in peace, south and north, and after that, he joined Zhao Guangfu together. Northern Expedition Alliance.

Originally, the Nanyang area was determined by Shui Yun Tian, ​​but with the series of attacks launched by the Condor Empire on Henan and Hubei, a new speaker has now been added here. Li Yufeng is here to find this newcomer. The words are human.

The newcomer is called Dongfang Liang. Yes, Dongfang Liang is also a related household. He is the cousin of Dongfang Ming, the leader of the Imperial League.

After the powerful flying regiment of the Northern Expedition Alliance was wiped out by the Condor Air Force in Shanxi, now the entire Northern Expedition Alliance is left with the newly formed flying regiment in the hands of Dongfang Liang.

This time Li Yufeng came here to persuade Dongfang Liang to send troops to help him deal with Ning Yuan’s flying regiment.

Considering the relationship between Dongfang Liang and Dongfang Ming, I knew that the difficulty this time was by no means ordinary.

……

Li Yufeng was taken to the city lord’s mansion where Shui Yun Tian was soon after entering the city.

“Brother Li, you are an absolute rare visitor. I never dreamed that you would visit Nanyang City in person one day.

Come, come, come, brother Li, please come in. ”

As soon as Li Yufeng stepped into the gate of the city lord’s mansion, two sturdy men greeted them with a spring breeze. These two people are not others, they are Shui Yun Tian and Dongfang Liang.

After welcoming Li Yufeng into the living room and taking the seat, Shui Yun Tian looked at Li Yufeng and said politely with a smile on his face: “Brother Li, the two of us have been neighbors for so long. Actually, I wanted to invite Brother Li over to be a guest. NS.

It’s a pity that you and I were in different identities. I didn’t dare to invite Brother Li rashly. I didn’t expect Brother Li to come here in person. It really made me ecstatic!

Brother Li, it’s rare for you to come here. This time, you must stay a few more days so that I can make the best of my landlord friendship. ”

Reaching out and not hitting the smiling face, the expression on Yun Tian’s face was very sincere when he saw the water. Li Yufeng had no choice but to smile and say: “Brother Shui, you see, everyone is in the same alliance, so you don’t need to be so clear.”

Li Yufeng is pretending to be polite, but in fact there is something in the words.

After listening to Li Yufeng’s answer, both Shui Yun Tian and Dongfang Liang pretended that they didn’t hear anything, and they didn’t ask Li Yufeng why he rushed over all night this time, but they kept talking with Li Yufeng there.

Seeing the two people’s calm and calm appearance, Li Yufeng sighed secretly. He knew that this disaster was going to happen sooner or later, and he couldn’t avoid it at all.

After sorting out the facial expressions a little bit, Li Yufeng was going to cut directly to the topic, he looked at the water and Yun Tian smiled miserably, and said: “Two dear brothers, don’t hide each other, little brother, I have something to ask for when I rushed here overnight.”

“Brother Li, you laughed. As the founding emperor of Li Tang, you have three elite legions of Modao Army, Profound Armor Cavalry, and Magic Arm Archer. How could you have anything to ask us?”

Hearing that Li Yufeng had started, Shui Yun Tian immediately laughed and joked.

“Brother Shui is right, Brother Li, both of us rely on nepotism. One depends on Little Sister and the other depends on brother.

Players in the alliance said that the two of us are equivalent to those idle princes supported by the ancient feudal dynasty.

Brother Li, you suddenly said that you have something to ask us for help, isn’t this slap us in the face?

How can we two idlers who rely on nepotism help you? ”

After Shui Yun Tian made fun, Dongfang Liang immediately began to laugh at himself again.The two seem to be laughing at themselves, but they are actually running Li Yufeng there.

Because Li Yufeng had always looked down on both of them before, thinking that they had nothing to do with them, but they were better off.

Without Dongfang Ming and Shui Ruyan, the two of them would be at the level of a mixed adventurer world, and would not be qualified to sit under the same roof with him.

What kind of cause, what kind of result.

Li Yufeng knew that the two were avenging his former talents and arrogance, so he was not angry.

Seeing the two of them staring at him with a smile, Li Yufeng stood up and arched their cupped hands towards the two of them, and said: “The two dear friends, the younger brother was indeed a little conceited before, and a little arrogant.

Here, the younger brother apologizes to the two dear brothers. My mistakes are my fault. I hope that the two dear men can be generous and don’t care about me. ”

A big man can stretch and bend, Li Yufeng wanted to ask the two of them this time. If there is a verbal conflict with the two, then this time the matter is likely to be ruined, so he directly put his posture very low from the beginning. .

Seeing that Li Yufeng apologized again, and put himself in a very low position, Yun Tian and Dongfang Ming were embarrassed to talk about the water that Li Yufeng had been ridiculing.

After looking at each other, Shui Yun Tian opened his mouth and said: “Brother Li, since you have said so, if we ridicule you again, it will appear that our brothers are both careless.

Well, our previous grievances will be wiped out from now on. What do you think? ”

“Thanks to Brother Shui and Brother Dongfang for their magnanimity, my little one is grateful.”

Seeing own’s low posture worked, Li Yufeng got up again to thank him.

“Well, Brother Li, you don’t have to be like this. As you said, now we are brothers of an alliance, and everyone is our own. You don’t have to go around the circle if you have anything, just say it!”

After Li Yufeng took his seat again, Dongfang Liang chose to get straight to the point.

After giving Dongfang Liang a grateful look, Li Yufeng slowly said, “Brother Dongfang, Brother Shui, things are like this.

…. ”

In front of the two of them, Li Yufeng did not conceal anything, and directly recounted what had happened in the past few days in detail.

After listening to Li Yufeng’s explanation of what happened in the Xiangyang area, Dongfang Liang and Shui Yun Tian looked at each other, their complexions suddenly became serious, because they had already guessed the purpose of Li Yufeng’s trip.

After a moment of silence, Dongfang Liang looked at Li Yufeng and asked: “Brother Li came here overnight, but to use my flying army to deal with the Eagle Air Force that invaded Xiangyang?”

Nodding towards the bright spot in the east, Li Yufeng replied with a look of expectation: “Yes, brother Dongfang, if you want to disrupt Ning Yuan’s destructive tactics in the Xiangyang area, only your flying army can do it.”

“Brother Li, do you know the latest situation in Taiping Town, Shandong?”

Dongfang Liang didn’t answer Li Yufeng head-on, but instead asked a rhetorical question.

“I heard about it. It seems that the fighting in Taiping Town is very fierce. The flying player death squad we hired and the flying player death squad hired by the Condor Empire have all been killed. The enemy and the enemy are indifferent. At present, Taiping Town is still in the Dashi Kingdom. In hand.”

Li Yufeng guessed why Dongfang Liang had such a question, but he answered it honestly.
