When Dongfang Changchang rushed back to the Imperial City of Eastern Zhou Dynasty with stars and moons in the sky, Mu Cunyi had already secretly issued military orders and made full preparations to attack Jinghua Sandao.
At the same time, he also sent a secret letter to the five military governors who were instigated by him to rebel, asking them to cooperate. What the letter said was similar to that of Dongfang Changsheng. It could be summed up in one sentence: The territory is limited, first come first served.
It's not that Mu Cunyi is generous, but that he understands that otherwise, the five Jiedu envoys will not fight hard at all. Although it is difficult to control, in Mu Cunyi's eyes, the combined threat of those five people is greater than
If you are not as good as Zhuo Mufeng, let's destroy the three Jinghua Dao first and then settle the accounts slowly in the future.
However, on the surface, Mu Cunyi still looked like she was patiently waiting for the Dongfang Family's reply. She received Dongfang Changkong in the study. After learning about Dongfang Changsheng's decision, she praised the great elder for his wisdom.
The two sides hit it off immediately, and then began to discuss the siege matters, including the direction they were responsible for, which routes to advance from, how to allocate the food, grass and baggage, and transport it to the front line before the war began, etc.
Dongfang Changkong came prepared, indicating that the Dongfang family has already made a decision on the above issues.
Mu Cunyi was not angry either.
This is all because the territory controlled by the Dongfang Family is in the opposite direction from the imperial court, while Jinghua Third Road is in another area. The routes of the two sides are destined to be different. As long as they do not deliberately stir up trouble, there will be no overlapping areas.
Mu Cunyi and Dongfang Changsheng were both smart people. They knew which path to choose and which directions to attack would be beneficial to their own side. Therefore, after the two sides exchanged opinions, it could be said that they coincided with each other and everyone was happy.
"By the way, according to what the eldest brother said, there are five people in the rebel army who have abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side. The Eighth Prince can incite them to take action together, so that Zhuo Mufeng can't resist." Dongfang Changkong emphasized.
Mu Cunyi nodded: "I know this, and it is indeed the Great Elder who has given it careful consideration."
Then the two sides discussed some details, and after finalizing everything, it was already late at night. Dongfang Changkong refused the invitation to stay for dinner and left in a hurry, obviously preparing for the war.
Mu Cunyi opened the door, walked under the eaves, looked at the stars all over the city in the distance, and said with a smile: "Uncle, it turns out that after hard work, people can feel so satisfied when they see the results before their eyes.
!”
Mu Zichen behind him sighed: "I think you have been poisoned by Zhuo Mufeng. Even if you destroy his foundation, you still can't kill him."
Mu Cunyi's eyes were sharp: "Who knows the future? I will remove his foundation first, and then cooperate with the four dynasties, the Eleven Holy Lands, and, by the way, the Dark Night Pavilion. This time I can find Jinghua
To obtain the information, I believe that Dark Night Pavilion must have contributed.
Haha, everyone treats me as a fool, but as long as the plan can be implemented according to my wishes, it is okay to be treated as a fool.
By then there will be no protection from the three armies, and there will be ambushes from all sides. I wonder how long Zhuo Mufeng and the others can hold on. There is no enemy of ten thousand people in this world. This is what the emperor told me."
Looking blankly at the straight but curved back in front of him, Mu Zichen pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer...
As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. If you want to support a big war, the amount of food and grass used is unimaginable. And if you need to transport so much food and grass, no matter how you cover it up, your flaws will be revealed.
Not to mention that under the construction of Lou Linxuan, the eagle eyes of the Demon Sect have already penetrated every corner. Not long after, Zhuo Mufeng, who was in the Bai Mansion of Jinghua City, received the relevant news.
"It's such a big deal. The imperial court and the Dongfang family alone have a total of twelve troops, and this doesn't include some guys who may be incited to rebel."
In a study room opened in the Bai Mansion, Zhuo Mufeng threw the information on the table, walked to the huge map hanging on the wall, and stared at the lines and points on it.
Barong and Fang Xiaodie stood behind him, and Fang Xiaodie said coldly: "That Mu Cunyi simply doesn't know how to live or die. If we can't deal with the old Dongfang thief for the time being, why can't we kill him? Young Master, why don't you send Yao Wu and others to rush in?"
Imperial City, get rid of the person named Mu and see how they unite!"
This woman is really simple and rude. Zhuo Mufeng was speechless and said: "Didn't you read the news from Cen Gang? There are many formations in the Eighth Prince's Mansion. Mu Cunyi is obviously worried that someone will harm him. Now he can't leave the house.
It's not that easy to kill him. Don't try to take advantage of other Jiedushi envoys. If he were so easy to kill, all the major holy places would have done it long ago."
Fang Xiaodie was suffocated and said with an angry look on her face: "Are we just going to let them do whatever they want?"
This time Balong didn't speak. He knew that the junior sister was anxious, so why wasn't he anxious?
After the imperial court and the Dongfang Family joined forces, their strength far surpassed that of Jinghua Three Paths. When the war started on all fronts, our side would definitely not be able to hold on for long. This did not take into account factors such as the major holy places, Dark Night Pavilion and other forces that interfered with it.
If that were to happen, I'm afraid the situation would be even worse. Not to mention guarding Jinghua Three Roads, it would be good to ensure that the people of the Demon Sect can evacuate safely.
As for uniting with other rebels, it is unrealistic. First of all, we don’t know who has been secretly instigated to rebel. If we lead a wolf into the house, we will be in trouble. In addition, today’s rebels have long been in trouble. Except for Cai Enping, only Fang Zhaonan, the northernmost one, is in serious trouble.
How could he help the young master when it was obvious that he was the cloaked man's chess piece?
The rest of the rebel army is even more scattered, with only three or two big cats and kittens left. It's too late to garrison each one, so who dares to divide the troops to assist here?
No one expected that the young master had just become proud and proud in the Battle of Jinghua, establishing the supreme authority of the Demon Sect leader, and then he would face the tragic situation of being besieged by all parties. This was no longer possible by force alone.
What can be solved is the huge gap in strength, which even the young master cannot do anything about.
"Of course we can't let the enemy mess around." One person took over Fang Xiaodie's words. Barong and Fang Xiaodie turned around at the same time, as if they saw a savior, and said happily: "Mr. Lou!"
Lou Linxuan nodded to the two of them and walked to Zhuo Mufeng. Zhuo Mufeng also woke up from his meditation and called Uncle Lou.
"This is a dead end. If we insist on the three realms, we will definitely lose." Lou Linxuan put one hand behind his back and held the feather fan in front of his chest with the other hand.
His voice had a calming power, and Fang Xiaodie, who was a little flustered before, calmed down and asked urgently: "Mr. Lou, do you think we already have a solution?"
Ba Fang also looked straight at Lou Linxuan.
Zhuo Mufeng smiled lightly and said: "You guys underestimate Uncle Lou too much. After the Battle of Jinghua, Uncle Lou had already thought about today. How could he not be prepared?"
He picked up the wooden stick on the table below the map and pointed at a certain place on the map: "This is the territory of Nanwu, but it actually belongs to Jianhai Palace. Recently, the forces of Tiandu Sect are in rebellion, and they are spreading troops everywhere.
Disaster. The Emperor of Nanwu was so troubled that he frequently sought help from Jianhai Palace.
Some time ago, Jianhai Palace had ordered the three military governors under its command to respond to the call of Emperor Nan Wu. Those three soldiers and horses are taking this exact path."
Zhuo Mufeng drew a line on the map with a wooden stick. Balong could not see anything yet, but Fang Xiaodie, a smart and sensitive person, slowly followed the line drawn by Zhuo Mufeng and his eyes widened.
This is because this line bifurcates at the end. One side leads to Nanwu, and the other side goes around the land bordering the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The area directly opposite it is marked with red ink, and it belongs to the Dongfang family.
Fang Xiaodie said nonchalantly: "Is it possible that we..."
"That's right."
Zhuo Mufeng's eyes shot out with a frightening light, and the tip of the stick slid all the way: "The Dongfang family sent troops to attack the third path of Jinghua, and its internal defense must not be as good as before, let alone the third path of Jianhai Palace. By then, I will own it.
Gather the troops of the three Jinghua factions and attack from the front and back with the three Jianhai Palace factions. Doesn’t the old man from the East want to go straight to Huanglong and destroy my foundation? Okay, then we will simply go to his lair and take charge of the matter, and exchange four and a half.
In the land of three paths, we will not lose!"
After saying that, he clicked the stick on the specially marked Guiyun Mountain, which is the headquarters of the Oriental Family.
Barong and Fang Xiaodie looked at each other, their faces were red and their chests were heaving. Barong was very excited and said: "It's ridiculous that the old Dongfang man and Mu Cunyi have exhausted all their tricks. This time they will definitely know what stealing is."
The chicken loses the rice!"
Not even two months had passed since the Battle of Jinghua, and another shocking event surrounding Zhuo Mufeng spread throughout the world.
The Eastern Zhou Dynasty court gathered millions of troops, combined with the millions of troops from the Eastern families, and the alliance army composed of the other five Jiedu envoys, a total of six million, sharpening their swords, and marching on the three paths of Jinghua!
What's worse is that two of them are adjacent to the Jinghua Third Path and were the first to launch a fierce offensive. Fortunately, the Jinghua Third Path was well prepared and was not caught off guard.
However, the opponent's continuous fierce attack soon turned the fighting place into a meat grinding ground, and blood was everywhere. At the same time, the soldiers and horses of the other parties were also in their positions, and they were ready for a big fight.
Jinghua's three roads are in critical condition across the board, and due to the sharing of troops, the various checkpoints are under far greater pressure than before. The number of daily battle deaths is shocking, and it seems that some checkpoints are difficult to defend.
Under the attention of the whole world, only five days later, a key pass was breached. The enemy troops marched straight in with overwhelming force. A huge roar spread for dozens of miles, and countless soldiers were killed by the iron hoof butcher knife.
Just like a protective film that could not be withstood was punctured, all three areas of Jinghua Road suffered a huge blow. Their morale was frustrated, and coupled with the gap in their own strength, in the following more than a month, key points and barriers were breached one after another.
, Jinghua Three Roads are in danger of collapse across the board!
Under this situation, all Jinghua soldiers who participated in the battle felt a deep despair and powerlessness. Their blood and fighting spirit were not enough to reverse this crushing massacre.
Cai Enping stood in the Jiedushi Mansion, his face as sinking as water, and his fists clenched. As the central leader of the entire army, he certainly knew the plans of Zhuo Mufeng and Lou Linxuan, so he was obviously anxious and could only wait patiently for the opportunity.
Avenge the bloodshed of your soldiers!
"Hahaha, that boy Zhuo Mufeng is finished!" Uncle Ming would report the battle situation to the cloaked man every day, smiling every time and appearing to be in a good mood.
