Chapter 319 Epic Battle Dungeon: Battle of Xiangji Temple
"Thank you for your hospitality today, Xinye Ling. We will take our leave now."

"Brother, come to Xiangyang City often when you have time, and we can drink wine and talk about heroes again."

After Huo Du and Huo Jun had their fill of food and drink, they, together with Cai Zhong and Cai He, said goodbye to Li Qian, who had done his best to be a gracious host.

Li Qian clasped his fists and said goodbye to the four people.

Huo Du, Huo Jun, Cai Zhong and Cai He left, two returned to Zhijiang and two returned to Xiangyang.

After they left, Li Qian led three thousand guards north and returned to Xinye.

With three thousand guards protecting him, Li Qian didn't have to worry about any ambushes along the way.

Given the elite level of Li Qian's 3,000 guards, it would be basically impossible for the enemy to successfully ambush and kill Li Qian and others unless they prepared an ambush of 100,000 troops.

In addition, even if the other side had an army of 100,000, it would not be difficult for Li Qian to break out.

At this time, Li Qian remembered another reward he got for giving up the Assassin Yaoli Template - the epic battle copy token.

He has yet to figure out what this particular gadget is used for.

Judging from the name, this item seems to be an item for opening epic battle copies.

Li Qian checked its item introduction.

[Name]: Epic Battle Dungeon Token
[Type]: Consumables
[Effect]: After use, a random epic battle instance will be opened, and the instance will be valid for seven days. After opening the instance, if you do not enter the instance within seven days, the instance will be automatically closed. Epic battle instances have challenge time limits, number of players, number of generals, number of counselors, etc. Some historical battle instances are difficult, so please challenge them carefully to avoid wasting the challenge opportunity. If the challenge is successful, you will receive the corresponding epic battle instance reward.

As expected, the purpose of this item is to unlock the epic battle copy.

Epic battle?

After using it, can you unlock epic battle copies such as the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Gaixia, the Battle of Mobei, the Battle of Kunyang, the Battle of Feishui, and the Battle of Yashan?

I wonder if using this token will open one of the above copies?
The entry period of the copy is seven days.

Seven days is enough to return to Xinye from Xiangyang City.

As long as he returns to Xinye, Li Qian can count his troops and fight in the epic battle copy.

"Ding, are you sure you want to use the epic battle dungeon token? After use, an epic battle dungeon will be randomly opened. The dungeon is valid for seven days. Please make sure you have time to conquer the dungeon."

"determine."

"Ding, you used the Epic Battle Dungeon Token, special item 'Epic Battle Dungeon Token' -1."

"Ding, the epic battle dungeon 'Battle of Xiangji Temple' is open. The entry time is seven days. Please enter the dungeon within seven days, otherwise the dungeon will be closed and inaccessible."

"hiss……"

Li Qian started the most tragic battle of Xiangji Temple during the "Anshi Rebellion" in the Tang Dynasty!
In the winter of 757, in order to recover the capital Chang'an, Tang Suzong Li Heng appointed his eldest son, Prince of Guangping Li Chu, as the Marshal of the Army, Guo Ziyi as the Deputy Marshal, and led Tang troops and people from the Huihe, Western Regions, and Anxi, claiming to be troops, from Fengxiang to attack eastward. When the Tang troops reached Xiangji Temple in the south of Chang'an, they encountered rebels led by the rebel generals An Shouzhong and Li Guiren. Guo Ziyi immediately arranged the army formation, with General Li Siye as the vanguard, Guo Ziyi and Marshal Li Yu as the center, and General Wang Sili as the rear, to fight against the rebels.

The Battle of Xiangji Temple was extremely brutal and lasted for four hours. The Tang army was defeated at first but then won, killing 7 rebels and capturing . However, the Tang army suffered more than casualties for this, with the losses on both sides almost one to one.

In four hours, 130,000 people were killed, with more than 30,000 people lost every hour. The soldiers' wailing did not stop until late at night. Such a tragic bloody battle was simply bloody in the era of cold weapons. Although the Tang army finally defeated the rebels, because a large number of Tang army elites including the Anxi army were killed in this battle, the Tang army's strength was damaged and it was difficult to completely quell the rebels. It had to recruit a large number of rebel generals later, and these rebel generals became separatist vassal states in the future, accelerating the pattern of separatist states.

A large number of famous generals were involved in the Battle of Xiangji Temple. On the Tang side, there were Guo Ziyi, Li Siye, and Pugu Huai'en. On the rebel side, there were An Shouzhong, Li Guiren, Zhang Tongru, and Tian Qianzhen. These were all ruthless people. In front of Guo Ziyi, Li Siye and other famous Tang generals, they inflicted greater losses on the Tang army.

"This epic battle is very tragic... I can only bring ten generals, one military advisor, and ten thousand soldiers to attack this dungeon. In addition, I can choose to challenge five difficulties: simple, normal, difficult, epic, and purgatory."

“You can only choose one difficulty level.”

"The higher the difficulty, the stronger the enemy."

"I can still choose my camp freely."

Li Qian discovered that the epic battle copy was much more complicated than he had imagined.

There are five levels of difficulty and two camps.

In other words, Li Qian can decide to join the Tang army camp and help the Tang army commander Guo Ziyi, or he can choose to join the rebel camp and help the rebel generals An Shouzhong and Li Guiren.

Join different camps and clear different levels to get different special rewards.

But you will only know the specific rewards for joining the Tang army and the rebel camp after you complete the game.

This is a real test of the player's own choice.

The rewards for the Tang Army camp and the Rebel camp have the characteristics of the corresponding camps.

There are five levels of difficulty, each with its own difficulty level, and the higher you go, the harder it gets.

If you overestimate your own abilities and rashly choose the highest "Purgatory" level of difficulty, you may end up being wiped out and waste the opportunity to attack the epic battle dungeon.

The good news is that the generals and soldiers lost in the epic battle copy can be resurrected after the epic battle copy ends.

In this way, Li Qian doesn't have to worry about losing generals in the copy.

If a peerless general of Huang Zhong, Qin Qiong, or Yuchi Jingde's rank were to be killed, even the rewards from the epic battle copy might not be enough to make up for the loss.

Because of the resurrection mechanism, Li Qian can try to challenge slightly higher difficulty.

Of course, the opportunity to attack the epic battle copy is extremely rare. Even if he can be resurrected, Li Qian does not intend to challenge the highest difficulty at the beginning. If he does that, he may very likely waste the opportunity to clear the epic battle copy.

There are five levels of difficulty, each with a corresponding introduction.

Li Qian plans to study the probability of clearing the five levels of difficulty before deciding which copy to attack.

Finally, there is a special rule for the epic battle copy, that is, the generals who appear in the epic battle copy cannot be brought in.

For example, in the Battle of Xiangji Temple, Li Siye was already a general of the Tang army, so Li Qian could not bring Li Siye, whom he recruited himself, into the battle, otherwise there would be two Li Siyes.
