Chapter 601: Junzhou is in turmoil!
In this battle, the White Tiger Riders displayed amazing fighting power and tacit cooperation, as if they were a whole. Every movement and every attack was just right, as if they had been rehearsed thousands of times.

And their leader, White Tiger, is like an invincible god, charging ahead and invincible.

The figure in white armor flickered in the night, like a flash of lightning, cutting through the darkness and illuminating the way forward.

This battle was the first battle between Qizhou and Junzhou, and it was also the beginning of the White Tiger Cavalry demonstrating its unparalleled combat power with thunderous force.

At the same time, in the capital of Junzhou, this ancient and majestic city was shrouded in a haze, as if it was the prelude to an impending storm.

On the city wall, the soldiers patrolled with nervous expressions, occasionally looking up into the distance, their hearts filled with uneasiness and fear of the unknown.

Inside the city, the Tiger King's mansion was brightly lit and the atmosphere was solemn. An emergency meeting concerning the survival of Junzhou was being held here.

Tiger King, the overlord who once dominated the northern battlefield of the Great Yong Dynasty, now seemed a little lonely.

He sat in the main seat, his face haggard, his eyes flickering with resentment and anxiety.

Not long ago, he suffered an unprecedented setback in his battle in the south. Not only did he lose Tieshou Pass, an important barrier to the south of Junzhou, but he also lost a large number of troops and supplies, which made Junzhou's defense system instantly vulnerable.

Even Junzhou's most important ace force, similar to the "Silver Feather Flying Cavalry", was completely wiped out by Ning Piaomiao in Yongzhou in one battle.

This was an even more severe blow to Junzhou's morale.

"My lord, if Tieshou Pass is lost, our defense line will be like a huge hole torn open, and Ning Piaomiao's army may march in at any time."

An elderly strategist, holding a feather fan, revealed deep worry between his brows and spoke in a low voice, as if every word was striking on everyone's heart.

"Yes, my king, we must make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise Junzhou will be in danger!"

The general standing beside him, wearing heavy armor, clenched his hands into fists, his tone full of anxiety.

The Tiger King was silent for a moment, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, their faces filled with worry and expectation.

At this moment, everyone can panic, but he cannot. He is the pillar of Junzhou and the hope of everyone.

"Everyone, although Tieshou Pass has been lost, Junzhou has not yet fallen."

"We still have elite cavalry, solid city walls, and loyal soldiers like you."

The Tiger King's voice was low and firm, as if he was cheering himself and everyone else up.

However, at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence in the room.

A scout rushed in, sweating profusely, holding an urgent battle report in his hand.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

"The Qizhou army in the west is invading in large numbers and has already launched an offensive against our army!"

There was a slight tremor in the scout's voice, but the words were crystal clear.

Upon hearing this, the Tiger King's face instantly turned pale.

He took the battle report, quickly glanced through it, then looked up at everyone with a fierce look in his eyes.

"It's really like when it rains but it leaks. Ning Piaomiao hasn't been dealt with yet, and now there's Li Jing."

The Tiger King said this through gritted teeth, but then took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Everyone, the current situation does not allow us to hesitate any longer."

"Prepare for battle immediately. Even if I die, I will knock out a few of their teeth!"

The Tiger King's voice was heavy, but at the most critical moment, he did not weaken his title as the Tiger King.

He did not think of surrendering and seeking peace, but decided to fight to the end. Hearing the Tiger King's decisive words, many counselors bowed their heads in thought, while the generals held their weapons tightly, ready to face the upcoming battle.

The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense, as if a string might break at any time.

"My lord, I think we should concentrate our forces and deal with the enemy on one side first."

"If we disperse our forces, we will likely be defeated one by one by the enemy."

A young strategist at the bottom suddenly spoke up, saying that since they had already decided to go to war directly, there was nothing else to say.

"That makes sense, but which enemy do you think we in Junzhou should deal with first?"

When the Tiger King heard this, his eyes flashed. He looked at the young strategist, nodded, and then spoke slowly.

This question was like a huge rock, weighing on everyone's heart.

"Your Majesty, I think we should deal with Ning Piaomiao in the south first."

"Because Tieshou Pass has been lost, the defense line in the south is the weakest. If Ning Piaomiao's army is allowed to march straight in, Junzhou will be in danger."

An old veteran at the bottom stepped out and bowed slightly.

"No, my king, I think we should deal with Li Jing in the west first."

"The terrain of Qizhou in the west is dangerous, but it is also covered with hills. Even if Li Jing's army in Qizhou is powerful, their marching route is long and logistical supply is difficult."

"If we can concentrate our forces and quickly defeat Li Jing, then we can free up our hands and focus on dealing with Ning Piaomiao in the south."

However, another counselor shook his head in opposition.

The room fell silent again, and everyone was weighing the pros and cons in their minds.

The Tiger King also fell into deep thought. He knew that the decision at this time would determine the life or death of Junzhou.

At this moment, another scout rushed in again, holding an urgent battle report in his hand, his face full of fear and anxiety, as if he brought some terrible news.

"My king, it's bad! Ning Piaomiao's army in the south has already marched northwards, preparing to attack Junzhou!"

There was a slight tremor in the scout's voice, but the words were like thunder, exploding in the room.

Upon hearing this, the Tiger King's face turned pale instantly.

He knew that the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, and the Junzhou army had to make a decision immediately.

"Everyone, this is a matter of life and death for Junzhou."

"I have made up my mind. Concentrate all our forces to deal with Ning Piaomiao in the south first!"

"Now that the Iron Fort in the south has been lost, the southern defense line is the weakest. If Ning Piaomiao's army is allowed to march straight in, Junzhou will fall completely."

He took a deep breath, then slowly stood up and looked at everyone with a heavy gaze.

This battle not only concerns the fate of Junzhou, but also his reputation as the Tiger King and the rise and fall of his family.

"As for Li Jing in the west, we can only temporarily reduce the intensity of our defense, but we cannot just stand there without any resistance."

"At least, we should let them arrive in Junzhou later to buy us some precious time."

The Tiger King's voice was a little hoarse, but it still revealed an unquestionable majesty.
