Chapter 969： Unable to counterattack

The reason for the sigh of relief was because of this, there was no need to fight with the army of the Nanyan Kingdom in a short time.

You know, after passing the night battle on the high mountain on the right side of Lianyun Road, he lost the Miserable Crossbow and also lost nearly 200,000 troops.

If he is allowed to continue to attack the enemy camp assisted by naval ships, he really doesn't have much confidence to win.

Now that the emperor's order came down, for now, he was naturally relieved.

"Your Majesty, the enemy army has fully contracted and has begun to deploy a defensive formation, and it is also on the high mountain on the right side of Lianyun Road."

"After our army retreated, Le Chongjin dispatched another 300,000 troops to set up a defensive army formation and destroyed the mountain road facing us. It seemed that he was ready to continue to defend."

In the Nanyan Kingdom barracks, Zhang Han reported the discovery of the Shadow Guard to Lu Feng immediately.

"Strange, what does Le Chongjin mean? No more offensive, ready to stick to this position?" Zhang Yun said with some confusion.

Lu Feng frowned slightly, and he was also wondering about Le Chongjin's plan, which was a bit abnormal.

Your dynasty is a kingdom. It defeated your dynasty army three times, and your dynasty lost its face. You don't want revenge, but you want to stand firm. What does this mean?

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier ran in from outside and said loudly: "Your Majesty, General Zhou Yu has sent news that the navy scout discovered that the army of the Zonglan Kingdom has arrived and is completely arranged on the river."

"This is to prevent our army from landing on the riverside to attack Le Chongjin Barracks." After Yue Fei said, looking at Lu Feng, he said: "Your Majesty, looking at the enemy's various arrangements, is really planning to hold on to the position and deploy the dragon On the other side of the river, I don't want to fight with our army anymore."

"It seems that the enemy is afraid of being beaten and dare not attack anymore." Shen Zhengwen and some lieutenants laughed.

"Not so!"

Lu Feng shook his head and said: "We are facing the Liyang Dynasty, one of the top ten dynasties. They can't just let it go. They definitely have any plans."

"Yue Fei."

"It will be at the end."

"You immediately arrange your scouts and do a good job of investigating the news. If there is any movement of the enemy, you must report it as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

"Zhang Han!"

"It will be at the end."

"You immediately send the Shadow Secret Guard spies to sneak into the Zonglan Kingdom army camp. I want to know what is happening with Zonglan Kingdom's army."

"I will follow the order at the end!"

"Okay, go and make arrangements immediately."

"Yes!"

Soon, all the generals in the barracks left, leaving only Lu Feng in the barracks.

He stared at the map near the Evil Dragon River in front of him, frowning, his expression was not good.

Ordinarily, the enemy is not attacking now, which is good news for them.

However, Lu Feng knew very well that if the enemy forces really stopped attacking, it would not be good news for the Nanyan Kingdom.

Once the Liyang Dynasty intends to stick to the edge of the Elong River and the high mountains on the right side of Lianyun Road, and intends to block the way for the Nanyan Kingdom to attack the Zonglan Kingdom, it will make the development of the Nanyan Kingdom very difficult.

With the army of the Liyang Dynasty and Zonglan Kingdom, it is a very simple matter to hold this line.

On the contrary, it is very difficult for the Nanyan Kingdom to break through the enemy's defense.

"Really just." Lu Feng looked at the map for a while and suddenly said.

"Subordinates are here."

Zhen Gang appeared in the barracks.

"Pass the order to the Jin Yiwei agent of the Liyang Dynasty, let them find a way to find out the exact news of the Liyang Dynasty, and let Gu Wenqian investigate the news as much as possible." Lu Feng ordered.

Lu Feng must know what happened inside the Liyang Dynasty before he could judge what Zhang Liyuan's plan was.

"Yes!"

In accordance with Lu Feng's order, he immediately went down to pass the order.

In a blink of an eye, five days passed.

Lu Feng stood at the head of the Great Barracks Walled City, looking at Lianyun Road, silent for a long time.

In these five days, the army of the Zonglan Kingdom on the other side of the Elong River had gathered three million.

The entire three million army did not carry out any offensive. Instead, they built fortifications on the shore. Seeing that, it was really preventing the Nanyan Kingdom from launching a breakthrough from the Elong River.

Also doing the same is the remaining more than 800,000 troops under Le Chongjin of the Liyang Dynasty.

They arranged the 300,000 army on the mountain on the right side of Lianyun Road to build fortifications day and night for five days, turning the entire mountain on the right side of Lianyun Road into a huge defensive position.

For now, it is basically impossible for Lu Feng to take the Shadow Secret Guard to attack the mountain on the right side of Lianyun Road at night.

In order to detect this news, Lu Feng's Shadow Guard has lost several outstanding scouts.

There is also the Le Chongjin army camp in front of Lianyun Road, which is also building fortifications. In five days, the fortifications built are no less than the large camp of the Nanyan Kingdom behind Lianyun Road.

And also added the previous siege vehicle to the defensive position.

Yue Fei and the others speculated based on the situation that with regard to the current defense of Le Chongjin Camp, the Nanyan Kingdom wanted to attack, and it might have lost more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops before it approached the enemy camp.

In the past five days, Lu Feng had never smiled on his face.

Because the purpose of everything the enemy did was already very clear, it was to block Lianyun Road, and it was to block the road to the south of the Nanyan Kingdom.

It is to force your Nanyan Kingdom to develop northward.

This is the purpose of Liyang Dynasty!

As the monarch of the Nanyan Kingdom, Lu Feng was very, very clear about what it meant. Naturally, he couldn't be happy.

"Your Majesty, there is news about the internal decision of the Liyang Dynasty from Jin Yiwei and Gu Xuan Trading Company."

The head of the Great Barracks Walled City really just came to Lu Feng's side, holding two jade barrels in his hands.

Lu Feng took the jade tube and opened it to look at the information inside.

The information of the two jade tubes is similar, and both have mentioned one important point. The Liyang Dynasty carried out internal mobilization and began to send a large amount of grain and grass to the Zonglan Kingdom in order to supply the army of the Liyang Dynasty in Zonglan Kingdom.

At the same time, some will be sold to Zonglan Kingdom to ensure that Zonglan Kingdom’s food and grass will not be exhausted due to long-term defense.

There is an important point in this news.

Long time defense!

This already shows that the Liyang Dynasty has given up the offensive and directly defended it, ensuring that the army of the Nanyan Kingdom will not be passed by.

It took five days for Jinyiwei and Guxuan to find out the news. One can imagine how difficult they were.

Obviously these messages are classified as confidential within the Liyang Dynasty.

And this also proved Lu Feng's guess in the past five days that Liyang Dynasty did not intend to destroy the Nanyan Kingdom when the imperial conscription order was about to start, and when the Great Emperor Site was about to open.

They just want to block the road of Nanyan Kingdom to continue to develop south, and they want to force Nanyan Kingdom to the northern grassland, to compete with the northern barbarians for land, and to compete with the Wu tribe for land!
