The next few autumn rains completely dyed the sycamore trees outside the city lord's palace withered and yellow, and the evening wind blew down, sending a chill all over the ground.
The documents Chen Tian received were like these fallen leaves, spread out in a thick layer. Only two or three days had passed, and he also had the same dark circles under his eyes as Lian Zi Xin.
Numb.
He began to miss the carefree days in Fenxiang Tianxia.
It's not like Chen Tian didn't try to create a teleportation array and call in reinforcements from the four worlds, such as the Chen Sect of Lingwu Continent, how powerful is that?
But where do spiritual stones come from?
Where do the required materials come from?
The northern region of Cangxi is so poor that it is not easy to build a teleportation array that can travel hundreds of millions of miles!
With this resource, why not use it to directly cast Wangcang soldiers? This thing is as powerful as a god descending from heaven, and it can tear down the towers of Gusu City with bare hands, so why bother looking far away from the near?
Chen Tian rubbed his temples and felt that there was no need to build a teleportation array across the world, but a small teleportation array within thousands of miles was necessary.
Because as the Nanxiang Army moved farther and farther, based on the distance calculated, it should be near Daigui Mountain today. After instructions and transmission of a battle report, it took more than 2,900 miles, a total of three days.

And this is already the limit of the messenger troops. In short, this is also the minimum delay for Chen Tian to command the frontline troops.
"Can you guys build a teleportation array without spiritual stones?"
"Well--"
The Twelve Yin Yun elders looked at each other in confusion, and no one responded for a long time. They were obviously dumbfounded by the question.
Chen Tian slapped his forehead: "Forget it, I'll go to the front line. Once the spirit stones are available, you can build the teleportation array as soon as possible."
"Leave now?" Tong Ruoran was confused.
Chen Tian nodded: "Shizi Camp has a batch of supplies and is heading to the front line. I happen to be accompanying them, so Master Tong doesn't have to go. I feel more at ease staying in Yongtai City."
"Okay, but who do you want to bring with you?"
"March and fight are not spring outings, so why would you need maids to accompany you?"
"This is different. Sir is the face of Yongtai City, and the guard of honor is indispensable." Tong Ruoran shook his head and suggested, "Fairy Caomuhua, please bring some with you. Lanlan and Chizhu have good fighting abilities, so it would be good for them to accompany you."
"Yongziying is also a personal soldier, who can escort you. The maid in the kitchen of the city lord's palace can also take care of the food."
"Since you still need to command on the battlefield, the imperial court must also accompany the army. As one of the counselors, Pang Xingyun must go at the same time as Fan Changxiang."
"As for material supplies, the Xumi Ring was not used up during the last trip to the cave. I will reload some later. I will definitely use it sir on the road." Tong Ruoran thought carefully and made arrangements in an instant.
Chen Tian didn't say anything more and nodded and let her do it.
By the evening, a large group of soldiers and horses had gathered in the city lord's palace, and all kinds of military supplies had been loaded into trucks in an orderly manner, almost crushing the bluestone.
He looked at the crowd in Wuyangyang, then turned to Tong Ruoran and said, "Why did you put Yang Niang in the team? Don't you know her temperament, Meng Lang?"
"Let her take care of you personally." Tong Ruoran smiled, "Sir, now that he has no spiritual power, who can activate the Sumeru Ring? Apart from me, she is the only female family member in Yongtai City who has the highest cultivation level."
"Is it that simple?"
"That's right."
"Okay then." Chen Tian was dubious, got on his horse, raised his whip and roared loudly, "Let's go!"
Tong Ruoran chased him for two or three steps and called out to him: "I wish you a speedy victory, sir."
"Definitely a triumphant return!" Chen Tian didn't stop for long, changed the reins, whinnied the horse, and leaped a hundred feet away.
It was nearly dusk.
The setting sun casts a large afterglow.
Yin Fei, who has generally recovered from his injuries, is leading the newly prepared 50,000 soldiers and horses to cruise near Daigui Mountain. Looking back at the military flag comic exhibition, he feels filled with pride.
Ever since he returned from the disastrous defeat at Zishui Bank, he has always been jealous of Yongtai City. He has been biting the shadow of the Nanxiang Army in the past few days, and he is full of revenge.
The elite can't beat them, so these Nanxiang troops who were born in city defense are just allowed to be flattened and rounded?
But in fact, Yin Fei was still brooding about the previous Battle of Zishui. He always believed that his defeat was just due to negligence.
Thousands of dragon and tiger cavalry faced off against 3,000 Yongtai naval forces who had been prepared for a long time. They did not have an advantage in numbers, and the terrain was still muddy at the time. However, they retreated calmly and suffered roughly the same battle loss ratio.
Isn't this a draw?
Yin Fei now leads a total of 8,000 soldiers and horses, 5,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry, all of whom are fresh troops who have not participated in the war and are well-equipped.
He looked back at the troops with the flags flying, his eyes blazing. These people were the elites he had exchanged for his precious quotas. The price was not small. This march must be fully funded!
at this time.
A group of scouts walked around the jungle. The leader, Qu Chang, beat his horse and shouted: "General! There is an enemy ahead!"
"Speak." Yin Fei leaned on his horse and bowed.
He knew this young man, his name was Wang Xiuge, and he was the son of a wealthy family in Linjiang City. The Wang family was the most active in the selection of new troops this time.
Even before the dragon and tiger cavalry arrived at Pingmuguan, the Wang family had already dismissed the female relatives of Xianyin Pavilion and couldn't wait to show a clear flag.
Wang Xiuge stood up and dismounted, and reported with courtesy: "The Nanxiang Army relied on the left bank of Zishui and patrolled Daigui Mountain, but they were always cruising around one place."
"This general thought that we don't have to be tired of chasing, we just need to seize the key and wait for the hard work!"
"Going in circles?" Yin Fei was surprised and leaned forward again and asked, "Where are you going in circles?"
"Reporting to the general, there is a post station outside Gusu City that is affiliated with Yongtai City. It is not large in scale, but it has never been evacuated. The Nanxiang Army may set up a forward headquarters here." Wang Xiuge analyzed carefully.
He has read a lot of military books. In the past, Liusha Chamber of Commerce recruited guards Dangtou, and he also participated in it. He had been in contact with the Snowfield Demon Clan for a long time and fought many victorious battles.
Now he is an enemy of Yongtai City because he realizes that Yongtai City led by Chen Tian has a huge impact on Cangxi's northern region.
Since the foundation of Linjiang City, we have seen many forces come and go in the millennium, and we have been able to do so with ease, and we have no problem protecting ourselves, but we have never faced such an urgent situation as Yongtai City.
Because Chentian is different from other city lords, he values the common people very much. In just half a year, he has attracted a million people.
This of course affects Linjiang's interests, but the most terrible thing is that Chen Tianzhen dares to take action against the family members, even uprooting them.
All the aristocratic families in Yongtai City were cut off and all their wealth was divided just because they bought a few acres of land from Mudleg.
As for the Lin family in Gusu City, a father and son died because of it, which shocked all the families in Wanli Cangxi's northern region, fearing that he would be the next unlucky person to be pushed to the execution ground.
Therefore, Wang Xiuge did not hesitate to dismiss his unparalleledly beautiful wife and family, but also immediately expressed his attitude to the Yin family in the northern region, and even led his troops to join Yin Fei's command.
Then Yin Fei listened to his analysis.
He ignored his hint of attacking the inn.
Because that one is close to Zishui, it is obviously at odds with Yongtai Navy. There must be a trap in it, so why bother looking for it?
On the contrary, the Nanxiang Army was lingering near Daigui Mountain, obviously waiting for land reinforcements. They only had infantry, and they were obviously easier to bully.
"Bullying a mere post station and defeating it without force, our army has great ambitions and must accomplish extraordinary feats!" Yin Fei held his whip high and pointed at the dense trees on Daigui Mountain and said passionately, "Give me my order!"
"Garrison in the mountains! Prepare to ambush the Nanxiang Army!"
"General!" Wang Xiuge had a strange look on his face and warned quickly, "Our cavalry is good at charging, but there may be something wrong with being trapped in a dense forest!"
Yin Fei frowned, took the bridle and hit the horse, turned around and looked deeply at Wang Xiuge, and said sinisterly: "Are you teaching me how to do things?" "The general will not dare..." Wang Xiuge was frightened, and he knelt down and did not dare to speak anymore.
