Chapter 1491: Who’s the gatekeeper (2)

Yang Gong nodded,

I understand. Commander tamo, you’ve traveled a long way and must be tired. I’ll arrange for you to rest first. We’ll treat you to a good meal tonight.

After tamo was taken away to arrange a place to stay, yang Gong slowly let out a breath and looked at his aides at the table.

These aides who were proficient in various fields and were well-read could not wait.

“What did ningyan’s letter say? how many flying beast armies does he have?”

Li Mubai asked on behalf of everyone.

“Five hundred,” yang Gong said with a smile.

five hundred?!

A cry of alarm rang out from the table. The busy clerks in the distance also stopped what they were doing and looked over in shock.

“Let me see.”

Li Mubai stretched out his hand and said in a deep voice,”come!”

The letter in yang Gong’s hand suddenly disappeared and reappeared in li Mubai’s hand. He opened the letter and read it. As he read, his breathing became slightly rapid. The hand holding the letter also trembled a few times, but it quickly calmed down.

The letter was passed around among the staff. Their hands were shaking, and their faces were filled with excitement.

The arrival of the Gu tribe’s elites was like a timely rain for the current Qingzhou.

It watered the dried up battlefield.

this price alone is enough to invite so many Gu tribe elites. Xu yinluo’s noble character can even move the Gu tribe.

An advisor stroked his beard and praised.

Naive … Li Mubai and yang Gong looked at him. The latter slowly said,

“Perhaps there’s a price that we don’t know about, and it’s paid by ningyan himself.”

The atmosphere at the table eased up, and the staff members laughed and said, ”

I don’t know when Xu yinluo will be able to deal with the matters in the southern border. If he can come to Qingzhou, the rebel army will be exterminated.

although he is not on the battlefield, his heart is still with Qingzhou, right? ”

Speaking of that martial artist whose reputation was at its peak, even if all the people present were scholars, there was only respect in their hearts. One had to know that scholars looked down on vulgar martial artists the most.

looking at it now, we still have to thank Lord Wei. He allowed Da Feng’s National pillar to continue and not collapse because of his sacrifice.

Da Feng lost Wei Yuan, but with Xu Qi ‘an, the inheritance was still intact.

Li Mubai furrowed his brows and snorted,

Ning Yan is indeed my student. His art of collaboration is so perfect that my years of teaching have not been in vain.

Xu Ning would rather be his student in name.

Yang Gong expressionlessly looked at his classmates and friends and said, ”

that’s right. I’m also very satisfied with this student of mine, Xu ningyan. He has never dishonored the teachings I’ve given him over the years.

The two great Confucians of Yun Lu Academy exchanged glances, and it was as if electric sparks were colliding in the air.

………..

Two days later, in the base camp of the Yunzhou Army, ten miles away from Wan County.

Eight giant birds as red as fire flew over from the horizon, flying past the tents and landing on the Northwest side of the camp.

At this moment, Qi Guangbo was making calculations with his strategists and generals.

“If we attack Wan County by force, we can take it down in ten days, but there’s Zhang Shen, the great scholar, who specializes in military tactics, and we can’t underestimate him. If we force our way in, I’m afraid we’ll lose some of our elite troops.”

GE Wenxuan looked at the sand plate and analyzed.

Seeing the generals of the various battalions frowning and not taking it seriously, he said in a deep voice, ”

“As I said before, the most important thing in fighting Qingzhou is stability, not speed. The faster they fought, the faster they lost their elites. We can’t have so few elite troops left when we reach the capital.

“Therefore, the best way to deal with Wan County is to surround it without attacking and slowly wear it out. If the Qingzhou Army comes to help, we’ll eat them. We’ll eat as much as you bring.”

A square-faced general shook his head.

“The premise of cutting meat with a blunt knife is that we can take down Songshan. Only by taking over Songshan County and Dongling would they be able to force the Qingzhou Army to do their best to stabilize Wan County.

“Otherwise, they could have used Songshan County as their base and sent troops to meet up with the eastern tomb guards to eat up Ji Xuan’s troops. In this case, Wan County will become a stone that holds back the main force of our Army.”

The Commander-in-Chief of the three armies, Qi Guangbo, finally spoke, ”

“Did Zhuo Haoran send back any information?”

A few days ago, Zhuo Haoran had sent back an urgent report that his six thousand elite troops had encountered resistance in Songshan County and had requested for reinforcements.

Qi Guangbo had sent 40 Vermillion Bird troops to reinforce them as quickly as possible.

Logically speaking, they should have taken down Songshan County by now.

this Xu New Year has surprised me. Even though Zhuo Haoran is not good at sieging, his 6000 elites are all good at fighting. It’s not easy for a young man to achieve this.

“He’s a general talent,” Qi Guangbo said with a smile.

Just as he said that, the sound of running footsteps stopped outside the tent. Qi Guangbo looked outside the tent and saw a soldier approaching from afar. He said, ”

“What’s the matter?”

The reporting soldier shouted, ”

“The Vermillion Bird Army has returned with news that the six thousand elites that were sent to Songshan County have been completely annihilated. Zhuo Haoran had escaped, and his whereabouts were unknown. The Vermillion Bird Army had 40 cavalry, but only eight returned.”

As he spoke, the information book fell to the ground.

In the tent, the generals ‘expressions changed.

Qi Guangbo narrowed his eyes, his expression turning solemn. He strode over, took the report from the soldier’s hand, and began to read it.

“Great general?”

GE Wenxuan whispered.

Qi Guangbo handed over the information in his hand without any expression.

GE Wenxuan was silent after reading it.

The intelligence spread among the generals of the various camps. In the silence, someone finally couldn’t hold it in and said through gritted teeth,

“The Gu clan and Da Feng have formed an alliance.”

After GE Wenxuan returned to the camp a while ago and told everyone that the Alliance with the Gu tribe had failed, the higher-ups of the cloud Prefecture Army had a bad feeling.

The generals all looked at Qi Guangbo.

The highest-ranking commander of the cloud Prefecture Army was silent for a long time before he snorted, ”

“Interesting,”

When he first joined the Army, he had said these two words. When he was deducing with Xu Pingfeng on the sand, he was still saying the same thing.

………….

The South City gate of the eastern tomb had collapsed into ruins.

In the beginning, the defending Army of Da Feng and the Yunzhou Army engaged in street fighting in the city, and the flames of war burned every inch of the city.

After six days of street fighting, the population in the city was reduced by half.

Some of the people escaped from Dongling, some were forced into the Army by the Yunzhou Army or the Dafeng Army, and some died in the war.

After that, the DA Feng Army retreated from che Dongling and started a battle with the Yunzhou Army.

The flames of war in the city had just subsided, but what followed was the plundering of the Yunzhou Army. The money, grain, and beautiful women of the people were all taken away.

In a well-preserved small courtyard, Xu Pingfeng’s face was pale as he coughed, and blood seeped out of his palms.

The Buddha of the Kyara tree sat cross-legged on the futon. The temperature in the small courtyard was as hot as Midsummer because of his existence.

“It’s been many years since I’ve been so seriously injured. Teacher is still a teacher.”

Even though he was seriously injured, Xu Pingfeng’s eyes were still smiling.

“But even my teacher couldn’t hurt you,” he said, glancing at the Galaxia tree.

The galastar tree closed his eyes and meditated, then said indifferently,

“The first supervisor didn’t hurt me either. I haven’t been injured for five hundred years, except when I almost died at the hands of Shen Shu when I destroyed the thousand demon Kingdom.

“The Gu clan seems to have joined the battle.”

Xu Pingfeng shook his head, ”

“It’s just a small matter. The Alliance with the Gu clan is just a pretense. The purpose is to let the White Emperor’s incarnation meet the Gu God. As for my eldest son, I’ll just let him do as he pleases. He’ll only be qualified to be my opponent when he reaches the Dao integration stage.

sigh, after so many years, I’ve finally solved a problem in my heart.

The Kiara tree opened his eyes and stared at him.

“What’s the matter?”

“I think I know who the gatekeeper is,” Xu Pingfeng said with a smile.
