Lin Yi didn't answer, but looked at Zhang Liao and smiled, " Wenyuan, what do you think?"
"Rest assured, my lord, the barbarian cavalry's attempt to gain an advantage over me is utterly delusional!" Zhang Liao patted his chest, looking confident.
Forehead!
Li Sansi and his son were dumbfounded. Just who was this Zhang Liao? How dare he make such a boast? It was simply outrageous!
Just as he was about to speak, someone suddenly pushed him, almost causing him to trip.
This infuriated the Prince of Beining Commandery. How dare he be so disrespectful after knowing his identity? He was practically courting death.
He was just about to explode in anger when he turned around and saw who it was. His face turned green instantly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Who's being so rude? It's you, you old scoundrel!"
The newcomer was Bai Zizai, the former ruler of Xiliang Commandery.
Behind him stood Yi Yun, Lin Rusong's right-hand man and commander of the Northern Liang Guard.
Both of these guys are here. No wonder Lin Yi is so confident. Lin Rusong has probably risked everything he has.
Seeing Li Sansi's gritted teeth, Bai Zizai chuckled and put his arm around Li Sansi's shoulder, saying, "Hahaha, so it's His Majesty's cousin. We're old partners, why didn't you tell me?"
Grass!
The usually gentle and refined Prince of Beining Commandery was completely taken aback by this incident. How could this stubborn brat have come? Having spent many years with Bai Zizai, he naturally knew what kind of person this guy was—a real tough nut to crack.
No wonder Lin Yi was so confident; these 30,000 men were probably Bai Zizai's Asura Army.
He couldn't help but whisper, " Old Devil Bai, are you secretly supporting the Heir of Northern Liang? Aren't you worried he'll take your Asura Army?"
"Damn it, don't you know me? I'm a well-known honest guy. I do whatever the higher-ups say!" Bai Zizai rolled his eyes and said irritably.
This time, Bai Zizai was truly wronged. It really had nothing to do with him, because his Asura Army was being used by Lin Yi as laborers to rebuild cities elsewhere.
Many of his former subordinates were extremely aggrieved by this matter and came to him to complain.
This left Bai Zizai completely baffled. Why would the prince use 30,000 new recruits instead of his own 50,000 Asura Army? So, upon hearing that the enemy was approaching, he immediately rushed over.
Yi Yun, watching his two old rivals, couldn't help but chuckle to himself. These two had been fierce opponents before, their back-and-forth exchanges never ending, and now they'd run into each other again.
What a coincidence!
"Hmph, you call yourself an honest man?"
Li Sansi sneered, "You call yourself an honest man? Then wouldn't I be a saint descended to earth? If it weren't for you, you old bastard, how could Lin Yi be so confident? It's a joke."
"Fine, believe it or not!"
Seeing Li Sansi's eyes, Bai Zizai knew what the guy was thinking and couldn't help but get angry.
His gaze then swept over the city wall, and he couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement, "No wonder the young master is so confident. With just this city wall, if Tuoba Yu doesn't show some skill, he probably won't even be able to get close!"
This city wall is not only tall, but its thickness is also somewhat outrageous.
Unless Tuoba Yu sets up siege ladders and forces his way up, it's just wishful thinking; it's not that easy to get up here.
"The young master is quite something!" Yi Yun's eyes gleamed. The young master had previously promised to provide cement to Northern Liang. Judging from the current situation, Northern Liang's future is as solid as a rock.
The layout of the city walls was even more terrifying, with all sorts of defensive facilities. Tuoba Yu would probably be completely disoriented before he even reached the foot of the city.
"Cough cough!"
Bai Zizai coughed twice and said seriously, "Your Highness, how do you plan to fight this battle? You've already prepared the defensive supplies here. Why not let them come a distance ahead and then dampen their spirits?"
In his view, it's better to be conservative when facing a situation where 30,000 is fighting against 100,000.
If they charge out like this, the 30,000 new recruits are probably doomed!
Lin Yi shook his head, then looked at Zhang Liao and introduced him, "Uncle Bai, this is my beloved general Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan. He will fight this battle. I want to use this battle to exchange for the title of Marquis of Daning!"
" The Marquis Champion?"
Everyone was taken aback. What did " Marquis Champion" mean? They had never heard of such a title before.
Li Sansi was even more confused and asked curiously, "Nephew, it seems that there is no such thing Marquis Champion in Great Ning. What does this mean?" Although Lin Yi didn't say it, it sounded very impressive.
The others were even more curious and looked at Lin Yi to the side.
"The title of 'Marquis Champion ' is to describe someone who is invincible in battle and whose achievements surpass those of the Marquis Champion." Lin Yi said solemnly.
Holy crap!
Bai Zizai's pupils constricted as he looked at Zhang Liao to the side. The Crown Prince actually placed such high hopes on this man; this was simply too terrifying.
Li Sansi, standing to the side, couldn't help but tremble as he exclaimed, "What a title! What a Marquis Champion! Is this what it means? With this title, even a prince would pale in comparison!"
What does it mean to have the greatest achievements in the entire army? It means to be the All Under Heaven.
this...
He swallowed hard, deeply moved by Lin Yi's aura for the first time. It was simply breathtaking, and he suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for the battle.
Invincible!
Unrivaled in the Three Armies!
He looked at Zhang Liao, his gaze intense!
Does this person truly possess the courage to defeat ten thousand men?
Li Yunqing, standing to the side, was completely stunned. He couldn't help but murmur, "So this is the Marquis Champion. If I could really get this title, I wouldn't care about this title of Prince of Beining Commandery!"
He's just a prince, at most he gets more land and a higher salary, how can that compare to the awesomeness of the All Under Heaven warrior in the land!
If I can do it, the world will not remember a prince who did nothing, but will remember a Marquis Champion All Under Heaven.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Zhang Liao took down a bright red flag planted on the city wall, which read "Trapped in Battle" on it.
He knelt on one knee, presented the flag to Lin Yi, and solemnly said, "My lord, I am ready to charge into battle, even at the cost of my life. I will show Tuoba Yu what fear truly means!"
That's right, the Formation-Breaking Camp never fought with city walls; they were an invincible offensive force!
Their will to charge into battle is unbreakable!
"Okay, I believe you!"
Lin Yi took the flag, drew a knife from his robes, and with a swift motion, cut his hand, dripping blood onto the crimson banner. He said in a deep voice, " Wenyuan, this battle is yours. I, the young master, will stand with you!"
Army flags are always stained with blood; may this flag, except for this drop of blood, be made of the enemy's blood.
