Chapter 2170: Chapter 229: Sunrise
An isolated journey, two generals in the External Building Environment, driving straight into the territory of a major country in the world, breaking through the eastern part of Summer Country, and approaching Xia Capital.
Isn’t this a great reputation?
This is a story enough to be remembered in history!
This is the protagonist’s template in storytelling!
Because this is too unbelievable, too unrealistic.
But if Zhongxuan Sheng’s judgment is accurate, if the Xia Army really abandons the eastern front, except for a few strong individuals supporting the main army’s backbone, and the high-level forces are all transferred to the northern front... then from Huiming Mansion to the city named "Noble City", their army is virtually unstoppable!
In terms of strategy, Zhongxuan Sheng is among the top. In terms of Transcendent military strength, Yisheng Feng died cleanly, Chumin couldn’t withstand a blow, who else does Summer Country have?
Summer Country wants to abandon the entire east to regain initiative on the battlefield.
And Zhongxuan Sheng just wants to take advantage of the weak and seize a great achievement of raising a flag in front of the enemy’s Imperial City!
This is almost a crazy imagination, yet in this complex situation change, the possibility of realizing it has appeared!
"Qingzhuan!"
Zhongxuan Sheng immediately ordered, "Ride quickly to Linwu, send a message to Commander Xie, saying that people of Summer Country have abandoned the eastern line, and most high-level forces have gone north!"
The swiftly arriving Qingzhuan was somewhat astonished, but said nothing, turned to find a Wind Demon Horse, and went towards Linwu Mansion.
"Xue Rushi!" Zhongxuan Sheng called again.
Xue Rushi, who was busy giving a presentation to the captives about the benefits of returning to Qi, immediately flew over.
"You now lead the main troops of Xinrong Camp, immediately take Noon Sun City. The quicker, the better!"
"I... obey orders." Xue Rushi hesitated.
Zhongxuan Sheng frowned, "What are you worried about?"
Xue Rushi bowed to show absolute obedience, "General Zhongxuan points and fights, I have no second words. Only concerned about my capability... unable to complete the general’s task well."
"If nothing unexpected happens, Noon Sun City now already has no garrison, you can take it by yourself. This is a sure victory." Zhongxuan Sheng gave him a deep look, "General Xue, after a while you’ll know my style. Working with me, you always gain."
Xue Rushi felt a chill in his heart, raised his head, "Yes!"
He immediately turned to gather troops, made a short mobilization, and hurriedly went towards Noon Sun City without delay.
Jiang Wang clicked his tongue.
This fat man’s intention is too obvious, clearly trying to compete with Xie Xiaobao for credit!
Ready to make unprecedented achievements at Guiyi City, and not planning to let go of Noon Sun City.
A good appetite indeed!
But on the other hand, Xie Xiaobao’s side only needs to confront Tai Yin’s ten thousand troops, maybe faster than the Minxi battlefield... Yan Po now going to Sheshan, is doomed to gain nothing. Xue Rushi directly advancing towards Noon Sun City, is merely striking unripe fruit.
"General Gu Yong!" Zhongxuan Sheng was completely indifferent to Someone Jiang’s disdain and opened his mouth to announce the next command.
Gu Yong, who had just sat down to rest for a while, immediately flew over, seemingly having completely convinced himself in this moment, "What orders does sir have?"
Zhongxuan Sheng gave him a glance, "General Gu, tell the brothers, those willing to follow me now, encamp here tonight under your command. There are some supplies there, you can make arrangements... those unwilling, disperse, each go back to their home."
"Ah?" Gu Yong was somewhat stunned, suspecting he heard wrong.
Especially the latter sentence.
Surely, you won’t let them shoot arrows once they turn?
"Which words did you not understand?" Zhongxuan Sheng asked very patiently and gently.
"No, no." Gu Yong quickly said, "Subordinate understands, I’ll go arrange!"
"..." Watching this person’s hurried back, Zhongxuan Sheng sighed, "Uncle’s notorious fame, makes me unable to approach people."
"Why don’t you confirm the Xia Army’s strategy with him? After all, he came along with Tai Yin." Jiang Wang asked curiously.
Regarding allowing Xia Army’s surrendered soldiers to disperse, he could understand. If Summer Country’s high-level truly chose to abandon the eastern line, then this part of the troops is indeed unimportant. Instead, the more these defeated troops scatter, the more wavering the will of Summer Country’s people becomes.
They fought desperately here, Noon Sun City finished, then Minxi; generals died, warriors died, fought to the brink before surrendering, what is Summer Country’s high-level doing?
A simple order completely abandoned them lightly.
If Zhongxuan Sheng were to let go of this point, that would be strange.
"He told me everything he knows. What he doesn’t know, what’s the use of asking him?"
"Eh? When did he tell you something? Why don’t I have the impression?"
"Sometimes intelligence transmission doesn’t necessarily require words."
Zhongxuan Sheng ended this dialogue with a minutely profound sentence, leaving behind the Zhenwu Camp controlled by the Shadow Guard to take care of the wounded, transport captured weapons, and instructed them to return to Qiyue City, previously occupied, to rest.
Finally, only the freshly filled Victory Camp was gathered; everyone riding horses, heading through the northwest in a cloud of dust.
"Why not make other arrangements for Gu Yong?" Jiang Wang asked amidst the cavalry sweeping the land.
"The current arrangement is sufficient; the rest depends on his wit."
Jiang Wang laughed atop his horse, "To do great things, you instead scatter people, sending them off in different directions!"
"Even if all those people go to Guiyi, can we really take Guiyi City?" Zhongxuan Sheng indifferently said, "Planting the Purple Micro Middle Heaven Emperor Flag outside Guiyi City is already a great achievement, stronger than Zhongxuan Zun bullying the dead!"
