Chapter 56 Falling into a trap

Dayu.

The territory of Tianzhou.

This is a state between Yujing and Luojing. It covers a vast area and has ten counties, which is twice the size of Xingzhou.

Chu Zhuang led the Wind-Controlling Army and galloped along the official road.

The speed is extremely fast, several times faster than ordinary cavalry.

The Wind Controlling Army!

One of Dayu’s top legions!

Its ranking is even higher than that of the Eastern Expedition Army, with 100,000 men, and the lowest of whom is at the seventh level of the Spiritual Creation Realm, totaling 80,000 men. The remaining 20,000 men, the lowest of whom is at or above the Purple Mansion Realm.

They are well-equipped, wearing heavy armor, holding spears, short swords on their waists, and bows and arrows on their backs, making them suitable for fighting in all kinds of terrains.

In addition, this is also a killing corps that has participated in battles such as quelling civil unrest and defending against foreign enemies. Each person has at least ten lives on their hands.

Killing breeds evil!

Even at noon, with the sun shining brightly, the temperature around the Wind Control Army was still much lower than other areas.

Chu Zhuang rode on his warhorse and looked around with great vigilance.

"drive!"

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.

Chu Zhuang looked up and frowned slightly when he found that it was the Luojing defenders.

A moment later, more than ten riders arrived in front of the army. The leader dismounted and saluted, saying, "General, the enemy has launched an attack and sent out Saint Realm warriors. Luojing is in danger!"

"I am here to ask for help on the orders of the city lord. I beg the general to speed up the march and get to Luojing as soon as possible!"

Chu Zhuang's face darkened and his brows furrowed.

Luojing was attacked!

What a fast attack speed!

"It seems that there is a master in the enemy camp!"

Chu Zhuang muttered to himself.

There are many benefits to attacking Luojing now. If successful, it can suppress the morale of Dayu and further disrupt the surrounding situation. Just imagine, if Luojing is lost, doesn't it mean that Dayu is strong on the outside but weak on the inside?

Even if the occupation was not successful, it would disrupt the deployment of the Dayu court, advance the progress of the war, and seize the initiative in the war.

Initiative!
This is very necessary!

Once the initiative is seized, the enemy will become quite passive and be led by the nose.

As a result, the battle plan can only be changed frequently.

Each step of the battle plan is the result of careful thinking. Any change will affect the entire body and will easily lead to mistakes.

"Boost!"

Chu Zhuang saw Bai Qi's intention clearly, but had no way to stop him.

He has lost the initiative!
unless
Let Luojing fall!

In fact, from Chu Zhuang's perspective, Luojing is really not important. It is located on a plain and has no natural barriers. It is not conducive to defense and is a useless place.

However, Luojing has a different political significance and is one of the two capitals.

Representing the face of the royal family.

boom!
The army accelerated, like an arrow shot from a bow, sharp and powerful, piercing the endless sky.

"Damn it!"

"Fell into a trap!"

In Luojing City, Zhao Zun had a gloomy face and gritted his teeth.

He found that since he asked Chuzhuang for help, the enemy troops outside the city stopped attacking the city and simply besieged it.

Surround but don't attack!
Force him to ask for help again!

The enemy's real purpose was actually obvious. It was not to attack Luojing, but to target Chu Zhuang and the Yufeng God Army who had come from afar to provide support.

"Someone, break out and tell General Chu Zhuang that this is a trap. Be careful of an ambush!"

General Cheng instructed.

trap!

This means that Chu Zhuang’s situation is very dangerous!
Chu Zhuang holds the top-level army, the Wind Controlling Army. If an accident happens, it will be a huge loss for the Dayu Dynasty.

"promise!"

Immediately, a general stepped forward and prepared to lead his troops to break out.

"no!"

At this time, Zhao Zun stopped him and said, "You can't tell General Chu that the enemy is besieging the city and we are in danger. We should send General Chu to help as soon as possible to save Luojing City!"

Different standpoints lead to different issues. Chengjiangzhu is a military commander, and his starting point for considering issues is mainly to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the battlefield.

But Zhao Zun is different. He is a member of the royal family, and Luojing is the ancestral land of the royal family, where tens of thousands of royal family members live, and there is no room for loss.

"City Lord, this is an enemy conspiracy!"

General Cheng gritted his teeth and said.

"I know!"

Zhao Zun's expression changed for a while, but when he looked at the aggressive enemy outside the city, he said in a deep voice: "I believe General Chu can resolve the crisis. General Chu has been a general for many years and knows what to do!"

General Cheng's face changed and he wanted to curse.

you believe?
You send people to rush to help, and the journey is thousands of miles long. If they neglect anything, a catastrophic disaster will be waiting for the Wind Controlling Army.

Once the Wind Controlling Army is attacked, Luojing will become an isolated city with no reinforcements.

"City Lord."

General Cheng wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhao Zun, who said coldly: "Stop talking, I am the Lord of Luojing City, and I will take responsibility for any problems!"

General Cheng was filled with bitterness and stopped trying to dissuade him.

It's no use saying more.

Zhao Zun's vision is limited to Luojing City, and he does not want the royal ancestral land to be lost.

Short-sighted!

"General, you better be careful!"

General Cheng looked up, gazed to the south, worried, and kept praying secretly.

Too dangerous!

The strong men under Ye Jiuxing's command are all good at fighting.

Moreover, he discovered that up to now, a powerful enemy army had not yet appeared, and that was the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Where did this cavalry go?
"strangeness!"

"There is no one in Luojing City who has broken through?"

Gongsun Sheng looked at Luo Jing, who didn't move at all, and was puzzled.

Logically speaking, Luojing City should have reacted!

Why don’t you inform Chu Zhuang?

Am I too stupid to react?
"normal!"

Bai Qi said calmly: "Don't forget, the mayor of Luojing City is from the Zhao royal family. He is eager for Chu Zhuang to arrive earlier, so why would he tell him?"

Gongsun Sheng's eyes widened in surprise, "Isn't he afraid that Chuzhuang will be in danger?"

"Of course he is afraid, but..."

Bai Qi shook his head, "He is more afraid of something happening in Luojing City. In comparison, he believes in Chu Zhuang's ability, but he is not sure whether he can defend Luojing!"

Gongsun Sheng seemed to be thinking about something.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Zun was not confident in himself and placed his hopes on Chu Zhuang.

under night.

In Tianzhou.

Chu Zhuang was leading the Wind Controlling Army and galloping quickly. He only slowed down when it was completely dark.

Ahead, there is a mountain range.

Thousands of feet high!

Stretching for hundreds of miles.

Divide Tianzhou and Luojing into two, and once they cross this mountain range, they will be able to enter Luojing.

The mountains are high and the forests are deep.

Suitable for Tibetans!
Chu Zhuang looked at the giant mountain. Under the moonlight, large shadows were formed. Mist floated between the mountains, covering the treetops, changing into thousands of shapes.

"Someone, go check it out!"

Chu Zhuang did not dare to advance rashly. What if he encountered an ambush in a mountain stream? That would be dangerous.

The Wind God Army is cavalry.

Fighting in this kind of terrain will be a challenge.

"promise!"

Hundreds of riders rushed out and scattered in all directions.

Chu Zhuang also channeled his spiritual energy into his eyes, which shone with divine light that was exceptionally sharp. Even in the dark night, it seemed as bright as day.

With just a glance, you can take in the general situation of the mountains.

Like
no problem!
