Chapter 938 Close Combat

The next day, Zhou Ran came to Jingwang Palace.

In front of all the ministers, Zhou Ran said to the country's leader Jing Kang: "Your Majesty, the Qing Kingdom has gone too far to bully people. They ordered the people from the tax department to collect taxes in the border towns. If the tax collection failed, they sent troops to suppress the border! We are both ten in the inner region. The two countries, Qing State, disregarded propriety, integrity and shame and used troops against Jing State, which is both unreasonable and unreasonable! I am willing to lead the Jing State Guards to resist the Qing State Army at Jianjia Pass!"

Zhou Ran's words made Jing Kang feel happy.

As the leader of Jing Kingdom, Jing Kang has been hesitant because he is not sure.

Zhou Ran was the hero of the previous battle. His willingness to lead the troops gave Jingkang reassurance.

"Champion Marquis, you are the backbone of Jingguo. Thanks to you in the previous battle, the imperial guards were able to defeat the powerful enemy. This time, please lead the imperial guards on the expedition. I will let Gao Yan be your deputy to help you. A helping hand!"

The king handed over the Imperial Guard to Zhou Ran and asked Gao Yan, the former commander of the Imperial Guard, to help Zhou Ran, which shows how much he values ​​Zhou Ran.

The ministers all raised their hands in approval.

National Preceptor Lin Zhongze said: "The king is wise, I believe that the champion will fulfill his mission and win!"

Zhou Ran saluted the king of Jingguo and said: "Master, this time, I have tried my best to prevent the Qingguo army from occupying Jingguo's land."

"That's best!"

Jing Kang couldn't help but nod. This time, Jing Guo's fate was all in Zhou Ran's hands.

After the plan was decided, Zhou Ran left the palace and went with Gao Yan to the garrison of the Imperial Guard.

Gao Yan gathered the imperial guards together. Zhou Ran cleared his throat and said loudly: "Soldiers, the soldiers of the Qing Kingdom are pressing down on the border with the intention of destroying our Jing Kingdom! Our families, our friends, our daughters and children are all affected. The threat of Qingguo! So we have to fight and drive them out with our hands, just like last time! Please believe in our power, if we can defeat them once, we can defeat them the second time!"

Zhou Ran's words inspired the soldiers of the Imperial Guard.

The soldiers were in high spirits and kept responding to Zhou Ran.

In the battle a few months ago, Jingguo won, and the army was led by Zhou Ran. This time, Qingguo invaded again, and Zhou Ran still led the army. How could it be invincible?

Zhou Ran mobilized the soldiers of the Imperial Guard and ordered the entire army to march together with Gao Yan.

Five thousand Imperial Guards set out from Yingcheng and arrived at Jianjia Pass, the junction of Jingguo and Qingguo.

The soldiers were familiar with the road and set up camp at Jianjia Pass and set up formations.

Zhou Ran could feel that the military spirit outside Jianjia Pass was strong. As the spies found out, Qingguo's army was no less than 40,000, which was several times the number of Jingguo's Imperial Guards.

Now that the imperial guards had been reorganized, Zhou Ran and Gao Yan flew into the air to look at Qingguo's army.

It was densely packed and stretched for miles, and it was all filled with people.

Gao Yan sighed and said: "Champion, this time it is the leader of the Qing Kingdom who is personally conducting the expedition. The Lord of the Qing Kingdom is dedicating all the strength of the country to defeat the Jing Kingdom."

Zhou Ran asked: "Who is the leader of the Qing Kingdom?"

Gao Yan pointed to the central tent of the Qing Kingdom army and said: "The leader of the Qing Kingdom is in there."

Zhou Ran looked at the Chinese military tent, which was sealed so tightly that there was no clue to it with the naked eye.

When the generals of the army came to report to the king, they all reported outside the tent and did not go in. Even the food sent by the chamberlain was just placed in front of the tent and did not go in.

"Mysterious, who is this leader of the Qing Kingdom?" Zhou Ran asked curiously.

Gao Yan added: "Speaking of which, no one knows the name of this leader of the Qing Kingdom.

All we know is that after he succeeded to the throne, he made drastic reforms to the Qing Kingdom, integrated the sect forces, and made the Qing Kingdom's national power grow rapidly. Originally, the Qing State could only protect itself, but now the Qing State is using large-scale military force against its neighboring countries. "

"It's really weird that I don't even know the name."

Zhou Ran smiled slightly, he did not expect that the leader of Qing Kingdom was such a person.

The person who destroyed his bookmark was in the Qingguo army. That person was most likely the son of Immortal Donghua.

It's a pity that he can't find that person at such a long distance. If he wants to find the breath of the soul-searching method, he must have close contact with that person.

When we are in close combat, it is our best chance.

After checking the situation of Qingguo's army, Zhou Ran and Gao Yan came down from the air.

Although the Qingguo army arrived at Jianjia Pass, they did not attack immediately, but quietly waited for the opportunity.

The imperial guards of Jingguo also stood still and watched the changes.

The two sides spent several days at Jianjia Pass, and the Qingguo army finally sounded the war drum.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound of drums can be heard clearly even from across Jianjia Pass.

Gao Yan was facing a formidable enemy and ordered the Imperial Guard soldiers to guard their positions and wait for the incoming troops.

The soldiers did not dare to neglect, they all stood in position with solemn expressions.

After a while, the Qingguo's forward crossed Jianjia Pass and came to the front of the Vientiane military formation.

Although they were only the vanguard, there were still 10,000 people, led by Duan Xuan, the right general of Jingguo, who rushed towards the imperial guards without any explanation.

"Defensive formation!"

Zhou Ran shouted loudly, and the soldiers immediately formed a human wall to block Jingguo's army.

Since Duan Xuan is the right general, his strength is naturally not limited. He is at the peak of Hedao. However, leading troops in battle is not about his personal strength, but the strength of the army.

After the Qingguo army was integrated, there was no longer a left or right army, and they were all led by Duan Xuan.

The forward army led by Duan Xuan is composed entirely of elites, and its combat effectiveness is naturally extraordinary.

The soldiers attacked and attacked the Imperial Guards.

The Imperial Guards gritted their teeth and followed Zhou Ran's teachings to block the Qing army with a strong joint force.

The two armies were entangled, and a puff of smoke rose from the Wanxiang Army.

The enemy was twice as many as their own, but the Imperial Guards were not afraid at all. With strong willpower and skilled formations, they blocked the Qing vanguard army.

Duan Xuan led the army to charge several times, but all failed.

"No wonder the Imperial Guards can resist Bai Chen's army. This formation is really weird!" Duan Xuan said to himself.

During the charge, his soldiers were repeatedly killed and injured, while the Jing Kingdom Imperial Guards were unscathed, all thanks to the Wanxiang Army formation.

Using one's own shortcomings to attack the other's strengths is extremely disadvantageous to the vanguard army. If the charge continues, I am afraid that the soldiers will fall one after another.

But the King of Qing did not let the vanguard retreat, so Duan Xuan naturally could not retreat.

The vanguard army charged, it was the king's order. At this moment, the king of Qing was coldly watching the 10,000 vanguard troops fighting against the Jing Kingdom's guards.

The Qing army had no advantage and was already overwhelmed. .

"Zhang Dan, did you see it?"

The king asked Zhang Dan, the deputy leader of Shimen, beside him. The reason why the vanguard army kept charging was to make it easier for Zhang Dan to figure out the Jing Kingdom's formation and find the flaws.
