Chapter 293 Yang Lin, the King of Backers!
"My lord, something terrible has happened. Something terrible has happened."

Zhang Dachuan hurried into Li Qian's yard.

Both military advisors Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were present.

When Li Qian went to suppress the rebels in Liangzhou, he specially left Fang Xuanling to garrison Long and Hu towns to prevent the troops of the two towns from falling into the trap of the Overlord of Western Qin.

At the same time, Fang Xuanling was also collecting real and fake intelligence about Xiqin City.

Li Qian was about to send troops to attack Xiqin City, so he recalled Fang Xuanling and worked together with Du Ruhui to plan the capture of Rang County.

Li Qian saw that Zhang Dachuan looked panicked, so he asked, "What happened?"

Zhang Dachuan replied, "Longtan Town reported urgently that the Overlord of Western Qin pretended to besiege Longtan Town, but actually ambushed the reinforcements. Gao Xianzhi and Li Siye led 8,000 troops to rescue Longtan Town, but were attacked by the Overlord of Western Qin on the way, and lost more than half of their troops. The Overlord of Western Qin took advantage of the situation and captured Hu Town. Gao Xianzhi and Geshu Han led the remaining troops to flee to Longtan Town, joined the Longtan Town garrison, and asked us for help."

Li Qian, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were all silent as death.

Li Qian only temporarily recalled Fang Xuanling to discuss matters, and as a result, the troops of the two towns fell into the trap.

From this point of view, the importance of a first-class military advisor is self-evident.

"The other party chose to send troops when I was away. It was obviously intentional. It was my carelessness."

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and felt helpless about this.

As soon as he left, something happened.

Unless he can predict the future, he can't plan ahead.

"Longtan and Hutan are each other's support towns. If only Longtan Town is left, it will be isolated and powerless and will not last long. It's time to send troops to attack Xiqin City."

Li Qian had originally been thinking of continuing to accumulate troops and siege equipment, and then sending troops to attack and destroy the Overlord of Western Qin when there was more than a 95% chance of winning. Unexpectedly, the Overlord of Western Qin took the initiative to seek a fight.

Plans cannot keep up with changes. This time, Li Qian had no choice but to send troops.

Once the Overlord of Western Qin recovers all the lost territories and occupies Rang County, he will become a powerful enemy again.

Gao Xianzhi lost more than 4,000 soldiers, but after joining forces with Wei Yan, Longtan Town still had 20,000 troops.

"My lord, wait a minute."

Fang Xuanling stopped Li Qian.

"What's your opinion, military advisor?"

"The Western Qin Overlord took the initiative to fight at this time. Something strange is going on. There must be external help."

Fang Xuanling paced back and forth and discovered some clues.

The timing of the Western Qin Overlord's military action was too coincidental.

"Are you saying that Ji Shiyu and King Zheng are planning to make a comeback? No, Ji Shiyu and King Zheng must have been scared after their last failure and would never dare to easily instigate the Overlord of Western Qin to send troops. Then there is only one answer..."

Li Qian also guessed the person behind the scenes—the greatest emperor in history of Bowang County.

Among the top lord players in Nanyang County, except for Li Qian, the next one to be ranked first in strength is the Emperor of All Ages.

The Overlord of Western Qin, Timely Rain, King Zheng and other lord players sent troops to invade Xinye County, and there was also the instigation of the greatest emperor of all time.

From this, it seems that the greatest emperor of all time is finally coming to an end.

Zhang Dachuan continued to narrate the intelligence that Ye Bushou had gathered: "In the melee, Li Siye was attacked by a white-haired veteran who used the Water and Fire Prison Dragon Stick and was injured by the veteran. This person's origins are mysterious, and no one knows to which force he belongs."

"White-haired veteran? Using a pair of water and fire dragon-prisoning sticks?"

Li Qian closed his eyes and thought, wondering about the origins of this veteran.

Li Siye's current martial power is 100. Since the white-haired veteran was able to injure Li Siye, it means that his actual martial power exceeds 100.

Speaking of veterans in the Three Kingdoms, Huang Zhong and Yan Yan are the most famous, but Huang Zhong and Yan Yan are now in their prime and are not veterans. The white-haired veterans who appeared in the Western Qin Overlord Army should not be local generals of the Three Kingdoms, but fierce generals from other dynasties recruited by players.

"I had captured nearly half of the territory of the Overlord of Western Qin before, and he had been hiding in the city all along, so he probably had no chance to get the order to recruit talented people. So this white-haired veteran is most likely not a general under the Overlord of Western Qin, but a general loaned to the Overlord of Western Qin by someone else... Could he be the greatest emperor of all time?"

Li Qian quickly figured out the connection. The probability of an emperor recruiting powerful generals was obviously higher than that of the Overlord of Western Qin recruiting powerful generals.

The next step is to speculate the identity of this white-haired veteran.

"Water and Fire Prison Dragon Rod... Yang Lin, the Mountain King?!"

With the help of this pair of special weapons, Li Qian guessed the opponent's identity.

Yang Lin is a character in "The Story of Tang". He is the uncle of Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, and the eighth hero of Sui and Tang dynasties. He suppressed and hunted down the Wagangzhai rebels many times.

Yang Lin, like Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu, is a military general in the Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties, and is at the level of the Five Tiger Generals.

No wonder Li Siye, who had not yet reached his peak, was injured. It turned out to be this kind of person.

The character template of the Greatest Emperor of All Time is Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, so there is a high probability that the Greatest Emperor of All Time can recruit King Yang Lin, just like Li Qian can recruit Li Xiuning.

"King Yang Lin has come out, so no one can recruit Li Yuanba or Yuwen Chengdu, right?"

Li Qian was sweating profusely.

King Kaoshan Yang Lin is still among the ranks of powerful generals that Li Qian can deal with. The powerful generals Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde, who have combined the abilities of novels and historical facts, are not afraid of Yang Lin.

If Li Siye had reached the stage of the "Battle of Xiangji Temple", his military strength would not necessarily be much inferior to Yang Lin. Li Siye was considered a fierce general in the middle Tang Dynasty, but was not included in the ranking of fierce generals in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties.

But people like Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu are too cruel, they are pure orcs.

A top-notch warrior is no longer within the realm of human power; he is simply a humanoid weapon.

Li Qian thought of the fact that he still had a top-notch recruitment order that he had not used.

It is just right to use lord players such as the Overlord of Western Qin, Timely Rain, and King Zheng to increase the recruitment probability of this top-notch recruitment order.

It would be great if we could recruit a top-notch general.

After figuring out that the white-haired veteran was most likely Yang Lin, the King of Backers, Li Qian was not so worried anymore.

Yang Lin is a first-rate general, but not a top-notch general.

In addition, unknown generals are the most terrifying.

"Does the military advisor have any good strategy to defeat the enemy?"

Li Qian's gaze returned to Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling said: "Since the Overlord of Western Qin surrounded the enemy and attacked the reinforcements, you can follow suit."

"You mean to concentrate our forces to deal with the reinforcements?"

"That's right. Last time, the lord didn't have enough troops, so he could only defeat these reinforcements and it was difficult to occupy their territory. This time, the lord has more than 100,000 troops, which is enough to completely destroy them."

Fang Xuanling was confident that his target was not just the Overlord of Western Qin, but to capture all the territories of lord players such as Ji Shi Yu, King Zheng, and the Greatest Emperor of All Time.

"It's up to you."

Li Qian also thought it was time to deal with lord players such as Ji Shi Yu, King Zheng, and Overlord of Western Qin.

It would be best to eliminate these enemies before Dong Zhuo's rebellion, otherwise Li Qian would have worries.

"Let's plan it carefully."

Li Qian summoned all his advisers and Confucian generals and set about unifying Nanyang County and eliminating these competitors.
