The scenery of the North is covered in ice and snow.
The heavy snow continued for five days in a row, and the land was vast, covered with white snow, and the trees on the isolated peaks in the distance were also covered in silver.
Inside Hangu Pass.
Emperor Chu and his party were stranded. Everyone marveled at the unprecedented snowstorm and worried that messages from various places could not be transmitted and could not reach Tianting.
However.
In the Nuan Pavilion, Emperor Chu stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, squinting his eyes slightly and staring at the snow-covered cold mountains outside, when a sudden call of black crows came.
At the top of the void, the black crow penetrated the barrier of wind and snow, flapped its wings crazily, and flew straight down from the sky as fast as lightning, appearing in front of Emperor Chu.
"Wow~~"
The black crows screamed twice. Emperor Chu raised his hand and took off the small bamboo tubes on their legs and wrists. Inside was the news they brought. Heavy snow had fallen for nearly half a month. This was the third time the black crows appeared in Hangu Pass.
The first time they arrived, Heiwu and Heiwu came with news that all the remnants of the Demon-Sealing Palace that had escaped had been captured. Except for the fifteen people who had been killed on the spot, the remaining five were seriously injured and were being taken into custody.
The second news brought was about the Allied Forces of the Four Nations. Due to the heavy snow, all the armies of the Four Nations were hiding in the Longxiao Empire, and there was currently no war.
at this time.
The black crow appeared again, and Emperor Chu slowly opened the letter with a solemn expression. After a quick glance, he learned that Lei Yan's 50,000-strong army massacred the city and entered the Beast Peak City, not far from the Beast Emperor City.
The blizzard prevented Lei Yan's army from moving forward. It was simply impossible for them to survive in such a harsh environment without the city to rely on and the replenishment of food, grass and baggage.
When 50,000 troops entered the Beast Peak City, Emperor Chu was not surprised at all. The God of War Lei Yan was able to lead his troops to a surprise attack. His generals must be the most elite in the White Tiger Empire. To seize a city without strong generals to guard it, for them,
It's not a difficult task.
Think about this.
Emperor Chu turned around and walked towards the military map behind him. He focused his attention on Beast Peak City and began to think about how to stop all Lei Yan's troops in Beast Peak City.
Speaking of which, Chu Dihan would also like to thank this blizzard. If it hadn't been for the raging wind and snow, which covered thousands of miles of ice, Lei Yan's troops would have already arrived at the Beast Emperor's city, and the shocking battle would have begun.
At this moment.
Footsteps sounded outside Nuan Pavilion. Emperor Chu knew that it must be Jiang Shang and Zhang Liang. He looked back at the door and saw two figures appearing in his sight.
"Zifang, Ziya, you two came at the right time. I just received news that Lei Yan of the Southern Barbarians led his troops to massacre the city and has entered the Beast Peak City."
"What, Beast Peak City?"
"Your Majesty, Beast Peak City and Beast Emperor City are adjacent to each other. Lei Yan's army is within a stone's throw of Beast Emperor City. This heavy snowfall should stop in the afternoon. It seems that Your Majesty needs to return to Beast Emperor City early."
Zhang Liang spoke up and frowned. He originally thought that Lei Yan's men would be killed in the wilderness, but they didn't expect that they would actually brave the wind and snow to rush hundreds of miles away and forcefully attack the Beast Peak City. This was a place they didn't expect.
.
"Zifang, Ziya, do you two have a clever strategy to defeat the enemy? Lei Yan's troops should be the strongest elites of the White Tiger Empire, and they may also be the elites of the Four Kingdoms Allied Forces. Since they dare to come to the land of Wuchu,
Then we can’t let them escape unscathed.”
"If you dare to slaughter my Chu soldiers and generals in Beast Peak City and harm the people in the city, I must make them pay with blood. If you dare to invade Wu Chu, you must spare your lives."
"Your Majesty, I have a clever plan to defeat Lei Yan's 50,000-strong army!"
Jiang Shang's expression was indifferent, and a loud voice sounded. He turned around and walked towards the window, followed closely by Emperor Chu and Zhang Liang, and a creaking sound spread.
"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good year. The arrival of this heavy snow is to help your Majesty deal with Lei Yan's 50,000-strong army."
"Ziya, what do you mean by this?"
"Hide your troops in the ice and snow, and attack them by surprise. The army does not need to go to Beast Peak City to lure the enemy deep into the city, but they can be killed and defeated."
"The white snow, the armor that beats the snow, kills the world silently!"
Jiang Shang looked directly at the flying snow outside the window, with the potential to point out the country. His powerful voice spread, and Emperor Chu and Zhang Liang on both sides nodded their heads one after another, their eyes burning, and they very much agreed with Jiang Shang's clever plan.
After the snowfall, thousands of miles are covered with ice. Lei Yan leads his troops in a surprise attack and will definitely fight to a quick victory. With his violent and reckless nature, he will definitely launch an attack on the Beast Imperial City after the heavy snow stops.
Emperor Chu looked away from the window, turned around and strode to the wooden case, writing furiously. When his figure appeared in front of the window again, a black crow shook off the snow on its body and flew towards the Nuan Pavilion with flaps of its wings.
The black crow appeared, landed on Emperor Chu's arm, took off the bamboo tube and placed the letter in it. Emperor Chu gently touched the black crow and raised his arm slightly. Violent air fluctuations spread, and the black crow shot straight into the sky, its chirping sound penetrated.
In the sky, the figure turned into a ray of light and disappeared at the end of the void.
"Your Majesty, this is..."
"The black crow, the spiritual beast, was specially sent to me to send news about the ambush of Lei Yan's army. I believe that generals Li Jing, Qin Qiong, and Yuchi Gong will make careful arrangements."
Emperor Chu was calm and composed, and spread the news loudly. The news he just sent out was not just an order for the deployment of the generals in the Beast Emperor City, but also an order for the Heavenly Punishment Army to go together, a two-pronged approach to ensure that Lei Yan's army never came back.
.............
Time flies, and five days pass by. The heavy snow has stopped three days ago, and the biting cold wind is raging crazily between the sky and the earth.
at this time.
Outside the Beast Emperor City.
Emperor Chu and his party walked against the wind, and the strong wind roared by. Snow and mist rolled up on the ground and moved with the wind, like elves beating.
City gate.
Except for the soldiers guarding the city who were still standing upright in the cold wind, there was no one else in sight. In such a bitterly cold world, it was impossible for ordinary people to appear.
An hour later.
In the Imperial Study Room of the Beast Palace, charcoal fire was burning in the stove, and the heat filled every corner of the palace. The figure of Emperor Chu appeared, and the servants stepped forward and took off his cloak, pushed open the palace door, and strode inside.
"Where are Xiao Guizi, Li Jing, King Bimeng, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong and others!"
"Back to Your Majesty, three days ago Li Jing and King Bimeng led the generals out of the city. So far, no news has been sent back. I don't know where they are."
"Your Majesty, it seems that Marshal Li and the generals of King Behemoth have rushed to Beast Peak City. Calculating the time, if everything goes well, they should be fighting fiercely with Lei Yan's troops by now."
Jiang Shang raised his hand to lift the tea cup on the wooden table in front of him, took a sip, and said with great confidence, as if he was strategizing.
Just as Jiang Shang said, at this time, in the wilderness between the Beast Emperor City and the Beast Peak City, the Chu army and Lei Yan's troops were already fighting together, with their blood covered in blood, killing the whole world.
After the heavy snow stopped, Lei Yan ordered his troops to prepare for the attack. The Chu army wanted to attack the Beast Imperial City. Unexpectedly, they encountered Qin Qiong on the way, and Yu Chigong led an army of 10,000 to come towards him.
Meeting on a narrow road, Lei Yan originally thought it would be a fierce battle, but he did not expect that Qin Qiong's troops had not yet encountered them, so they turned their horses and fled against the wind.
Lei Yan believed that the encounter with Qin Qiong's troops was a God-given opportunity, so he ordered a hot pursuit, hoping to follow Qin Qiong's army and march forward into the Beast Imperial City.
But he didn't expect to fall into the trap of the Chu army. At this time, in the wilderness, under the deep snow, Chu soldiers appeared one after another, and Lei Yan's troops were surrounded. (To be continued)
