The drums had just sounded twice when the Chu army had already appeared on the city.
Four Pioneers.
Four people, Li Yuanba, Li Cunxiao, Yang Kan, and Nangong Changwan, landed on the city. With a wave of their weapons, they swept across the Wanli City defenders in front of them.
The four of them pushed forward sideways, completely invincible.
The giant hammer in Li Yuanba's palm made a roaring sound. Every attack flew out, and the enemy figures in the air flew out like kites with broken strings.
Two giant hammers.
A stick from King Yu.
Break a tree with one stick.
A halberd with a dragon painting on it.
Four divine weapons flashed with golden light, and each ray of light that passed by would definitely take the enemy's head.
A hundred meters away from the battle, the defenders of Wanli City retreated and fled down the city.
No one dares to meet its edge.
The four generals were completely invincible. In an instant, the golden dragon flag fluttered in the wind above Wanli City and whirred.
at this time.
Bai Qi, Li Jing, Yue Fei, and Ran Min led their troops and captured the other three city gates one after another.
The sudden battle of Tathagata caught the defenders of Wanli City off guard. In less than an hour, the entire city fell into the hands of the Chu army.
Outside the city lord's mansion.
The god general Beiming Zhanhu who guarded the city was killed by Li Yuanba who rushed towards him before he could reach the city gate.
Beiming Zhanhu, as the defender of a city, could not last more than three rounds under the giant hammer.
Perhaps it was because the Chu army arrived without warning, which frightened him, and he did not show his true strength at all in the battle with Li Yuanba.
but.
There will be no chance in the future because he is also a corpse.
The war is over.
Because the Chu army's divine soldiers descended from the sky and launched a surprise attack, the few defenders of Wanli City were defeated like a mountain.
One hour.
After capturing a city, Emperor Chu felt a little incredible when he sat in the front hall of the city mansion.
After a second thought, I felt relieved instantly.
The number of defenders in this city was not large, only 50,000. Under the crushing force of the Chu generals, they had no power to fight back.
The general was killed in battle, and the army was instantly in disarray.
In the front hall.
The Emperor of Chu motioned the generals to sit down, with a look of joy on his face, "This battle will be fought quickly, and Wanli City will be captured. From now on, this will be my base of Chu."
"Wanli City is under the control of our army. I have decided to send troops immediately to seize other cities in the Western Zhou Dynasty."
Hear the sound.
Bai Qi suddenly rose up and bowed, "Your Majesty, this plan is feasible. Wanli City has been defeated and the news has not yet spread. The surprise attack can already achieve unexpected results."
Yue Fei, Li Jing, and Ran Min also agreed.
Emperor Chu nodded and motioned for the generals to come forward. His eyes all fell on the geographical map of the Western Zhou Dynasty. His long sword was unsheathed and pointed directly at Wanli City.
after.
After deliberation, Emperor Chu decided to divide his troops into two groups, with Bai Qi and Li Jing leading an army to Wanlong City on the left flank of Wanli City.
Ran Min and Yue Fei led an army to the Ice City on the right.
These two cities are at odds with Wanli City. If these three cities are captured in one fell swoop, the combined defense of the Chu army will be both offensive and defensive, making them impregnable.
After deciding.
The four of them did not stop at all, and each led an army of 20,000 people and left in the imperial boat.
Wanli City was guarded by four men, Li Yuanba, and a garrison of 10,000 people.
Emperor Chu knew very well that as long as he captured three cities in the west, the world would be shocked.
By then, the Western Zhou and Jiang armies will arrive soon.
Then the purpose of this trip has been achieved.
.........
Three days later.
Bai Qi and Yue Fei sent people back with good news.
The four commanders did not disappoint Emperor Chu. Wanlong City and Ice City had fallen into the hands of the Chu army.
Looking at the battle report in his hand, Emperor Chu nodded lightly, very satisfied.
I believe that the Western Zhou Dynasty has received the news now.
Putting away the battle report in his palm, Emperor Chu looked at the messenger in front of him, "Go back and tell Bai Qi and Yue Fei to pay close attention to the movements of the Western Zhou Dynasty. If there is anything unusual, come and report it immediately."
The two messengers bowed and saluted, turned around and left.
Not long after the messenger left, Murong Longcheng came, and there were two people behind him. Emperor Chu followed the sound and looked, with a smile on his cheeks.
"Ziya, here we come!"
Jiang Shang stepped into the front hall, bowed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
The corners of Emperor Chu's lips raised into a smile, and he raised his hand to signal Jiang Shang to take a seat, "We were able to capture Wanli City thanks to Ziya's bag of tips, otherwise our Chu army would not have won in such a short time."
Jiang Shangdao: "The credit for capturing the city belongs to my Chu soldiers. Ziya dare not take the credit. Without powerful soldiers, it would be impossible to capture the two cities of Wanlong and Hanbing in just three days."
.”
Emperor Chu nodded and said with a smile: "When Ziya returns, can you bring back any news?"
Jiang Shang has been in the Western Zhou Dynasty for some time. With his methods, he will definitely make the conspiracy between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Jiang Kingdom clear.
Emperor Chu had great confidence in him.
Jiang Shang nodded lightly and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Western Zhou Dynasty has formed an alliance with the Jiang State to jointly attack Wu Chu. They originally planned to enter the War Continent in ten days, but now they are expected to arrive at Wanli City soon."
"In addition, the reason why the Western Zhou Dynasty formed an alliance with the Jiang State was because of the shortage of food and grass in the Western Zhou Dynasty. The people were not hungry, and a large number of victims were homeless."
"The present Western Zhou Dynasty is already full of wine and meat. There are frozen bones on the road. Corpses are lying everywhere, and there are lots of white bones."
"The ministers returned from the Western Zhou city, and refugees could be seen everywhere along the way. The Western Zhou emperor dispatched garrison troops from various cities and went to the Western Zhou towns to defend them."
"I'm afraid that the refugee crisis will shake the country's foundation."
Hear the words.
Emperor Chu's face darkened, and there was a trace of suspicion on his cheeks. The Western Zhou Dynasty was a divine dynasty. Even if natural disasters caused disasters everywhere, the divine dynasty would not be without food for disaster relief.
Moreover, when disaster victims cause trouble, there is no need to deploy armies from each city.
There were many doubts about this, and Emperor Chu was very puzzled.
"Ziya, what's going on with the Western Zhou Dynasty's grain and grass issue? In addition, the Western Zhou Dynasty emperor dispatched garrison troops from various cities to suppress the victims?"
Hearing Emperor Chu's suspicious voice, Jiang Shang explained: "Your Majesty, in the eyes of natural disasters in the Western Zhou Dynasty, it is rumored that the spiritual source of the Western Zhou Dynasty has been exhausted and will soon become a place of death."
"So, even if the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty farmed, they still failed to harvest anything. They have been providing disaster relief for two consecutive years. Even if the divine dynasty has a strong foundation, it is still stretched."
"As for the deployment of garrison troops from various cities, firstly, it is to suppress the victims, and secondly, it is to jointly fight with Jiang Guo."
"The situation in the land of the Western Zhou Dynasty is complicated. There are Dongyi, ancient barbarians, Xirong, Beidi, etc. These ancient people are wild and bold. Although they surrender to the Western Zhou Dynasty, if their lives cannot be guaranteed, they will definitely rise up and resist.
.”
"This is quite a force. Even the Western Zhou Dynasty does not dare to be careless in the slightest. If it is not handled properly, the Divine Dynasty will be completely in chaos."
"Jiang State can provide grain, grass, baggage, and daily necessities to the Western Zhou Dynasty. This is why the Western Zhou Dynasty is willing to form an alliance with Jiang State."
After hearing Jiang Shang's explanation, Emperor Chu nodded and said, "That's it."
As he spoke, his eyes flickered and a smile appeared, as if he had thought of something very happy.
