The army set off and the order to withdraw to Yanmen Pass quickly spread throughout the military camp, and everyone immediately packed up their things.
Long Chen entered the Demon Dragon Camp and saw three thousand soldiers training to fight. They now put on the clothes and weapons of Da Zhou, and Long Chen gave them the best weapons.
The best equipment can only work best in the hands of the best warriors.
When we walked to the front of the tent, Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue just came out.
"Two old generals."
Long Chen goes to worship and see you.
Both of them were veterans who had fought with Long Yuan, and Long Chen respected them very much.
"Little General."
The two of them bowed their hands in return and motioned for Long Chen to enter.
When I walked into the tent, I saw Yu Wenkai still drinking.
"The old general is a good drinker and can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."
After drinking for so many days, Yu Wenkai had no intention of getting drunk.
"It's obviously strong alcohol, so why can't I get drunk?"
Yu Wenkai put down the wine jar in his hand with some disappointment, shook his head and sighed gloomily.
Long Chen sat down and said with a smile: "How many people want to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but the old general thinks that he can drink too much."
Yu Wenkai leaned on the back table and said, "Drunk is a happy thing."
This is true, sometimes people need to get drunk to relax and forget about the world for a while.
"We plan to retreat to Yanmen Pass and fight the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl there."
Long Chen carefully waited for Yu Wenkai's answer.
Long Chen estimated that Yu Wenkai would object, but Yu Wenkai said calmly: "Well, you know how to retreat, that's good."
"Our military strength is not comparable, and our cultivation is not as good. If the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl come, they will definitely surround us, and everyone will die by then."
Young people are most afraid of being arrogant and arrogant. Long Chen became the commander-in-chief of the human race at a young age. Yu Wenkai was afraid that he would be arrogant, act recklessly, and rashly start a war with the Martial Saint.
So when Long Chen said to retreat, Yu Wenkai not only did not object, but actually appreciated it very much.
Long Chen said: "This is what I thought, so I chose to retreat temporarily. There are 400,000 soldiers and horses available at Yanmen Pass, and there are enough weapons and arrows. It is better to start the war there."
Yu Wenkai nodded and said: "I also think it is unfavorable to start a war here, and there is even a danger of the entire army being annihilated, but I have never taken the initiative to say retreat. Do you know why?"
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "Because the old general was worried about the ghost tribe invading Xixia, he even entered the Central Plains from Xixia and bypassed Yanmen Pass."
Yanmen Pass is very strong. If Martial Saint and Ghost Girl take the initiative to go to Yanmen Pass to start a battle, Long Chen will have an advantageous position.
However, Martial Saint and Ghost Girl can completely choose to bypass Yanmen Pass and invade from Xixia Yuncheng and other places.
The ghost tribe is killing wantonly in the Central Plains. Long Chen must lead his troops to leave Yanmen Pass to find the ghost tribe and start a war.
In this way, the initiative of the war will be in the hands of Wu Sheng, and Long Chen will be exhausted if he is led by the nose.
Yanmen Pass will become the Maginot Line of Defense during World War II. It seems to be extremely strong, but in fact it is useless.
Yu Wenkai nodded and said: "Yes, as long as you can think of it."
"I also think it would be unfavorable to start a war here, but I didn't take the initiative to withdraw the troops. I was just worried that they would directly attack the Central Plains."
"Why are we fighting? For our own hatred, to avenge our brothers, and most importantly, to protect the people behind us."
"The most fearful thing on the battlefield is that you will be red-blooded. In the end, you will only remember revenge and forget everything else."
"It's okay for ordinary soldiers to think this way. If the general fights just for hatred, it will be over."
Stop fighting and turn it into force, use fighting to stop war.
War cannot be an end, but a means to achieve peace.
If the purpose is war, it will resort to violence and eventually be destroyed.
As a general, you must understand this truth.
Long Chen bowed his hands and said, "This junior has learned a lesson."
Yu Wenkai, as the only remaining warrior from four hundred years ago, could actually say these words, and Long Chen was moved.
Everyone he knew was dead, and Yu Wenkai could fight without concern, caring about grudges and grudges as he pleased, but he didn't. He said these words to Long Chen, which was enough to prove Yu Wenkai's feelings.
"Stop being polite to me, tell me what to do."
To retreat, the ghost tribe must not be allowed to invade the Central Plains from elsewhere.
Long Chen said: "Junior does have a plan, but it requires the cooperation of the senior general."
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "No problem, I have joined the army now. You are the commander-in-chief, and I will obey your orders."
Long Chen immediately bowed and said, "I don't dare, how dare I, this junior."
Long Chen did not dare to say that he would command Yu Wenkai to fight, he could only say to ask for advice.
"Okay, you make arrangements."
Yu Wenkai is very free and easy.
Long Chen immediately went out to make arrangements, and the army immediately set off and slowly retreated south.
North of the military camp.
A figure appeared on the mountain in the distance, it was the Eagle-Eyed Eagle.
After coming out of the ancient tomb, Wei Ying and the other three found several barbarians. After killing the barbarians, they snatched the horses and rushed to the vicinity of Da Zhou's camp.
The guard eagle climbed up and looked into the distance, squinting at Zhou's camp.
The guardian eagle has excellent eyesight and can see things in the distance clearly, so it got the nickname Eagle Eye.
From a thousand meters away, the guard eagle can clearly see the soldiers in the military camp.
Zhu Zhen and Li Man were beside them. They also tried their best to look into the distance. Their eyesight was not as good as Wei Ying's, but it was not bad either.
"General Wei, they seem to be retreating."
Zhu Zhen saw that the Zhou army camp was raised and the whole army was marching south, so he judged that the Zhou army was retreating.
Li Man said a little strangely: "It's strange, didn't they come here to fight us? Why did they retreat?"
Zhu Zhen said coldly: "The lord and the queen have awakened. A junior dares to fight with us?"
Li Man didn't say anything, he thought so too.
Wei Ying looked at the retreating army in the distance and began to feel troubled.
The Zhou army is retreating. If you want to find out the situation clearly, you must follow. It is best to sneak into the military camp.
However, if you follow the past all the way, you will go farther and farther. How will you report it to Wu Sheng?
Moreover, Wu Sheng asked him to inquire about the situation, he must have wanted to fight Long Chen decisively.
Long Chen has retreated now. When he goes back to report, Wu Sheng will definitely not be happy.
"General, shall we follow up?"
Zhu Zhen asked Wei Ying if he was following the Zhou army. Wei Ying said very decisively: "Of course we will follow up. We haven't figured out Long Chen's situation and how many generals they have."
Li Man also said: "If I haven't seen Yu Wenkai, I must see the Demon Dragon Camp."
Wei Ying ordered to follow him slowly and wait until dark before blending into the barracks.
While the three of them were snooping, in a pit in the distance, Feng He was looking at Wei Ying and the others with a telescope.
The location of the eagle was too far away, even the eagle shooter could not see that far, so the eagle did not deliberately hide its whereabouts. Feng He saw it through the telescope.
After coming out of Storm Canyon, Feng He had been observing the surroundings to guard against the prying eyes of Martial Saint's spies.
After killing so many people in the ice field, the Martial Saint would never rest, and the Ghost Girl would definitely take revenge, so Long Chen asked Feng He to keep an eye on the north to prevent prying eyes and sneak attacks.
Sure enough, Feng He saw Wei Ying and the other three.
"Only three?"
Feng He saw that there were not many people in Wei Ying, so he judged in his mind that these three people should be spies of the ghost clan.
"Keep an eye on these three people and I'll report them."
Feng He ordered his subordinates to continue watching, and he immediately climbed out of the pit and reported the matter to Long Chen.
