Chapter 385： Xiangyuan City

In the City of Light, Gong Ziqian was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face.

The weather finally cleared for a few days, but last night, there was a blizzard.

The cold air outside the window rushed into the room along the cracks desperately, which made Gong Ziqian's face pale again.

The adjutant brought a quilt and put it on Gong Ziqian, making him more comfortable.

Gong Ziqian stretched his neck, pressed the horns tightly with his chin, and asked weakly, "How come the sound of cannons outside is gone?"

The adjutant fiddled with the fire, and replied: "The wind and snow are too big, the Qin army has retreated!"

"Cough cough cough!"

Gong Ziqian coughed suddenly and violently, and the adjutant stepped forward and helped him pat his back.

The adjutant feels worthless for Gong Ziqian. The situation has reached this point, so why should he be buried for the three major groups?

Improperly this broken general, return to the border and continue to lead a group of brothers, there is no such troublesome thing to kill zombies.

Nor will it be overworked, and overwork will become sick.

Gong Ziqian had his own ambitions, and his skills were useless. The kind of loneliness was worse than death.

What about the funeral? As long as you can use what you have learned in your life, what about the funeral for the three major groups?

Gong Ziqian's cough improved a little, and he gasped and asked, "Qin State has two armies in the northwest, southwest and southwest. Is there anything happening?"

"Today's news hasn't arrived yet, maybe we have to wait a while!"

As the adjutant was speaking, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in!"

An intelligence agent covered in snowflakes walked in with a cold wind.

"Report, today's information has arrived!"

The adjutant asked: "Is it the intelligence of the Qin, Northwest and Southwest armies?"

The intelligence agent replied: "Yes!"

Gong Ziqian hurriedly urged: "Read!"

The intelligence officer unfolded the intelligence and read it aloud.

"Qin State, the Southwest Army, launched a surprise attack last night, and six cities including Anxian Town, Gaoyan Town, and Xinling Town all fell one after another."

"Qin State, the Northwest Army, raided the three cities of Beiguang City, Yangshan City, and Suning Town in the early hours of this morning. As of 10 o'clock today, only Suning Town is still in our hands!"

Gong Ziqian recalled that the location of these cities was shocked.

"Cough cough cough, hurry...hurry up and order, the whole army will withdraw west, hurry!"

The adjutant was a little confused. He knew the location of the city mentioned in the intelligence.

Those cities are so far away from the City of Light, that they can't threaten the main force at all. Why are they suddenly withdrawing?

This is the gap. The adjutant has only seen two or three steps, while Gong Ziqian has seen dozens of steps behind.

Gong Ziqian panted too hard, the adjutant poured some warm water and gave Gong Ziqian a drink, Gong Ziqian was much better.

After Gong Ziqian came over, he explained: "Although the cities are far away from here, they are not even in the central plain city group, but the successive fall of those cities has already shown that the Qin State's northwest and southwest army, Adjusted the direction of the main attack. One to the south and the other to the north. This is clearly to cut our back path!"

Hearing this, the adjutant's face became extremely ugly, "Then I will go to convey your order now!"

"Wait, I have something to explain."

The adjutant hurried up and listened carefully.

"You send a reliable person to defend Xiangyuan City first. As long as Xiangyuan City is in our hands, we can sit back and relax, but if Xiangyuan City is lost, even if I have great abilities, I will be powerless!"

The adjutant nodded his head, "Okay, I'll do it now!"

Xiangyuan City is located on the Jiuqu Corridor between Jishan Mountain and Zixu Mountain.

It is not only an important transportation route between the central and western regions, but also a strategic location.

Both sides of the Jiuqu Corridor are full of mountains. It can be said that whoever controls Xiangyuan City controls the lifeline of the traffic in the central and western regions.

Gong Ziqian's step is not bad.

In other words, the adjutant took the order issued by Gong Ziqian himself, found the generals, and conveyed the order of the whole army to retreat.

The generals who received the order did not look good!

On such a cold day, with heavy winds and heavy snow, the soldiers were hiding in the camp, shaking all over from the cold, and then letting them retreat in the snow. Isn't this a crime!

The adjutant said with a cold face, "This is a military order, and those who violate the order should be cut!"

The generals reluctantly accepted the order.

Then the adjutant asked who would take the soldiers to defend Xiangyuan City.

General Zhang Ji and Cai Mao stood up at the same time.

"I am willing to go!"

"I go!"

When the crowd saw the two, they all showed admiration.

At the beginning, President Yun Hanfei was defeated and killed, and the two generals and hundreds of thousands of coalition forces were captured.

The others surrendered. There were only two generals. They would rather die than surrender and be loyal to the three big groups instead of being lured by money.

Later, he fled back with injuries all over his body.

Such a loyal person is rare today!

If Qin Hao knew the thoughts of the soldiers of the coalition army, his stomach hurts with laughter.

I have to say that Zhang Ji and Cai Mao are born actors.

It was obviously sent (rushed) back by Qin Hao, but the two men said they had escaped by themselves.

In order to be realistic, the two of them also laid down their blood, beat each other with wounds, and then lay down outside the City of Light.

Whoever saw the miserable scene did not praise him, "This is really a loyal martyr!"

At this time, the two of them took the initiative to take on this unpleasant chore, and everyone admired their high morale even more.

Everyone really overestimated the integrity of the two.

In fact, since the two of them came back, they wanted soldiers but no soldiers, and they wanted guns or guns. They only had two polished commanders.

The reason why I was so positive this time was that I heard the word "leading soldiers".

In the last days, having soldiers in hand is the last word, and the two have already calculated in their hearts that they will be able to make up for all the property lost in the last war when they arrive in Xiangyuan City.

The two are very good at increasing taxes and taxes.

Knowing the person, knowing the face, and not knowing the heart, the adjutant did not doubt the motives of the two, so he delegated the important task of guarding Xiangyuan City to the two.

If Qin Hao knew, he would definitely shout, "This is the real Wolong, and the Phoenix!"

Gong Ziqian could think of the importance of Xiangyuan City. How could Qin Jun, who had planned for a long time, not think of it?

Zhou Lin and Xue Lingyun of the northwest army of the Qin Kingdom, led by 10,000 people, only brought weapons and dry food, and went straight to Xiangyuan City.

Just in case, the southwest army of the Qin State also sent Ye Zi and Meng Mingbo to lead a team of soldiers and horses towards Xiangyuan City.

The three armies, from different directions, rush towards the same goal. Whoever arrives first will be able to take the initiative, and even influence the course of the entire war. Everyone desperately rushes.

It is snowy and windy, and the visibility is only a dozen meters.

The troop truck in front of Zhoulin slid into a ditch more than ten meters deep because it drove too fast. Thanks to the thick snow at the bottom of the ditch, the soldiers inside were only injured and nothing serious happened.

Just when the convoy stopped for rescue, a large number of zombies emerged from the wind and snow and rushed towards everyone.

Everyone realized that the wind chimes on the roof had already been damaged by the wind and snow, and no sound could be heard.

No one knows how many zombies are hidden in the wind and snow, and the atmosphere of the entire team has fallen into extreme depression.
