When the soldiers outside the account reported, Emperor Chu's expression condensed and he stood up suddenly, with a look of doubt on his face: "The two beloved concubines came to Hangu Pass at this time. Did something happen?"
Without a moment's hesitation, Emperor Chu quickly walked out of the tent.
Under the rich darkness of night, the light of sparks shone on the beautiful figures of Fei Ling'er and Han Zhiyun. The two of them walked quickly to the side of Emperor Chu.
The moment she saw Emperor Chu, Fei Ling'er's cheeks burst into tears, as if she had been greatly wronged, and Han Zhiyun suddenly spoke.
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. Please tell me truthfully where I am!"
Emperor Chu took Concubine Ling'er's jade hand and the three of them entered the tent. Then he asked: "Ling'er, who made you feel so wronged?"
"Your Majesty, three days ago the Beastman Empire sent someone to deliver the news that the Beast King died in battle!"
"What!"
"Zhiyun, this is no joke!"
Hearing Han Zhiyun's voice, coupled with the constant choking and crying of the concubine Ling'er in his arms, Emperor Chu was shocked, like a lightning strike.
"impossible!"
"Emperor Fei Yin has a tyrannical cultivation and dominates the world. Who can kill him?"
There was an incredible look on Emperor Chu's cheeks, and the scene of meeting the Beast King in the past appeared in his mind. He was tall and mighty, exuding the aura of a king, looking down on the world, and giving people the impression that he was completely unbeatable.
"Your Majesty, this is a letter sent by Queen Mother. I hope Your Majesty will read it."
Fei Ling'er raised her hand to wipe away her tears and put a letter on her sleeve. Emperor Chu took the letter and walked towards the light.
"In the Battle of Yunhai, the Beast King died on the battlefield and his whereabouts are unknown. All of this was given by Tuoba Yuanhao?"
After Emperor Chu read the contents of the letter, he understood what Dugu Zhaofeng meant. He narrowed his eyes slightly and had a solemn expression on his face.
The Beast King died, leaving the Orc Empire without a leader. Thanks to King Beamon, King Tiger, and King Wolf still serving Dugu Zhaofeng, otherwise the Orc Empire would have been in chaos.
Although there was no civil strife, external troubles were always present. After the Yuanfeng and Xixia armies won the victory at Yunhaiguan, they started to send troops to approach the Beast Imperial City.
"Zhiyun, I will send someone to send you two back to Shendu at dawn tomorrow. Chu State will be surrounded by enemies from all sides. I may not be able to be by your side. I will stay in the Shendu Palace and take good care of everyone."
"Your Majesty, Zhiyun and Ling'er are here to accompany your Majesty to the Beast Emperor City and kill the enemy together on the battlefield."
"That's right!"
"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable. Ling'er will personally kill Tuoba Yuanhao!"
Fei Ling'er's firm voice sounded, her expression was cold, and her beautiful figure released a strong murderous aura. Emperor Chu knew that from this moment on, the once innocent, cute, and carefree Fei Ling'er was no longer there.
"Ling'er, don't let hatred blind your mind. Tuoba Yuanhao, I will personally kill him!"
Emperor Chu raised his hand to take Fei Ling'er and Han Zhiyun into his arms, and a majestic voice sounded. He did not want the two women to participate in the war, but he also knew that even if Fei Ling'er was sent back to the capital of the gods, she would still leave quietly.
Rather than letting her go into danger alone, it would be better to take them with her.
............
The next day.
early morning.
Su Lie, Pang De, and the six sons of the Yang family gathered in the big tent. Emperor Chu's eyes passed over them. Emperor Chu did not choose to hide why Fei Ling'er and Han Zhiyun arrived.
The war is extremely urgent, so we must make plans in advance.
"Your Majesty, the Orc Empire is surrounded by dangers. Without a large army to accompany you, the general will never allow Your Majesty to put himself in danger."
"Yes, I agree with General Pang's words. I hope your Majesty will think twice!"
Su Lie, Pang De, and the six sons of the Yang family all agreed, hoping that Emperor Chu would wait until Lu Bu's army arrived before heading to the Orc Empire.
"I understand that all the soldiers are worried. You don't need to worry too much. I am going to the Beast Imperial City to help the Beast Kingdom fight against Yuanfeng and Xixia."
"If something changes later, I might be in danger of reaching Chu. General Su and General Pang will continue to guard Hangu Pass. The six sons of the Yang family will leave with me."
"Within three days, Lu Bu and Yanping returned, leaving all the food, grass and baggage in the pass. Yanyun's eighteen cavalry and the army immediately rushed to the Beast Imperial City."
Su Lie and Pang De knew that Emperor Chu had made up his mind, so they could only select 10,000 elite soldiers from the 40,000-strong army to go with Emperor Chu.
But in order to speed up the march, Emperor Chu did not take away 10,000 soldiers, but only took away 1,000 Iron Eagle warriors who came from the capital of God.
Suddenly.
Outside Hangu Pass.
Emperor Chu, Han Zhiyun, Fei Ling'er, Na Ya'a, Luo Shixin, and the six sons of the Yang family led a group of iron eagle warriors and flew away in the dust, like a dragon soaring into the sky and earth.
Su Lie and Pang De stood on the pass, looking at the backs of Emperor Chu and his entourage disappearing at the end of the wilderness, their eyes still flashed with worry.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Everything was safe inside Hangu Pass. Su Lie and Pang De were waiting for Lu Bu's army to arrive. At the same time, Bai Qi, Yue Fei and Li Jing's troops had arrived at Tianzong Pass.
Tianzheng Pass, the main barrier of the Japanese Empire, and Hangu Pass are somewhat imagined to be that one man can guard the pass and ten thousand people cannot open it.
Five hundred thousand Chu troops arrived at the pass and faced two giant peaks, towering into the sky and standing precipitously. Between the giant peaks was the Sky Burial Pass built by Japanese enemy soldiers.
"Towering into the sky, it can bury the sky. With such a chasm, it will not be easy to capture it."
Li Jing raised his head and looked at the pass in front of him, thinking deeply. A majestic voice sounded, and Bai Qi on one side raised his halberd high and ordered the army to retreat.
Bai Qi witnessed the Sky Burial Pass with his own eyes, and he knew in his heart that if he wanted to capture the pass, he could only conquer it out of wisdom, not through force. All 500,000 troops gathered under the pass to no avail. The top priority was to retreat and set up camp and discuss strategies to capture the pass wisely.
The Chu army was well organized, coming in like a raging wave and retreating like a tide. Their formation was not disordered at all. The Sky Burial was closed. Jing Qianjun watched the Chu army retreat and said in a doubtful voice.
"Master Jingren, why did the Chu army suddenly withdraw?"
"The marshals who commanded the Chu army are by no means mediocre. They know that the Sky Burial Pass is steep and difficult to defend and difficult to attack. Even if they gather all the armies here, it will be of no avail."
"Prison General, send scouts out to see where the Chu army is camping. Tonight you will send the gifts prepared by the Chu army."
"Don't worry, Mr. Jingren, the general will understand!"
Yu Qianjun took the order to leave the pass. Kawashima Jingren looked into the distance, watching the Chu army leaving in the smoke, with a playful expression, a gloomy face, and a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Emperor Chu, the Sky Burial Pass will be the burial place for these 500,000 Chu troops. Killing them will only charge a small amount of interest first."
Bai Qi, Li Jing, Yue Fei, Wei Qing, Ran Min, and Li Cunxiao led the army to retreat ten miles away. After choosing a favorable terrain, the Chu army set up camp.
Suddenly.
All the vanguard generals and above from each army arrived at the big tent to discuss how to attack Tianzheng Pass. The generals racked their brains, but they never came up with a perfect plan.
Time flies by, and before you know it, the sun sets in the west, the afterglow shrouds you, and the dark night in the sky has begun to spread, encroaching on the vast sky little by little. (To be continued)
