Chapter 377 Breaking the Southern Han Dynasty and Entering the Grassland '23 Updates'
Earth-shattering changes.
The arrival of the Chu army was like a bolt from the blue, which completely frightened Si Tingxuan. He had always thought that the strength of the Chu army was exaggerated, but now he realized that the rumors from various countries were by no means groundless.
"Si Yu, order the imperial guards to guard the palace. You and I will leave the palace and go to Luoshui City."
"Eunuch Wei, send a flying pigeon to send a message and immediately inform the generals Huo Changyun and Gongsun Qi, asking them to lead the army back quickly and annihilate all the fledgling Chu troops in the imperial city."
"In addition, inform Daqian, Xuanchi, and the three kingdoms of Dayue to beware of the Chu army. Presumably, the four kingdoms' joint attack on Chu has been exposed. According to the nature of Emperor Chu, the Chu army appeared in our Southern Han Imperial City. The situation of the other three kingdoms must also be Not much better."
"Your Majesty, retreat quickly. I will go to the celebrity office to deal with the remaining matters. The Emperor's comfort is the most important thing right now."
Hear the sound.
Si Tingxuan glanced sideways at Xiang Fei's palace, with a look of reluctance on his face. He stood up and walked quickly towards the depths of the palace.
Watching Si Tingxuan and Si Yu leave with more than a dozen imperial guards, Eunuch Wei quickly ran to the other side of the palace and met two groups of imperial guards approaching at a fast pace.
"Eunuch Wei, the enemy troops have entered the city and the palace may be in danger. Does your Majesty have any orders?"
"Anyone who defends the imperial city and retreats without a fight will be killed! Anyone who disturbs the morale of the army will be killed!"
"The emperor has sent a letter to the two generals. I believe they will rush back to the imperial city soon. Therefore, we must protect the last line of defense of the Southern Han Dynasty and not let the Chu army get over the edge."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, we will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death and will never let the Chu army invade the palace!"
Eunuch Wei knew very well that there was no way that the 5,000 imperial guards in the palace could stop the Chu army's cavalry. It would take at least a day for Huo Changyun to rush back with his troops. It was pretty good that the 5,000 imperial guards could resist the Chu army for an hour, but now the only option was Only by defending the palace can they buy Si Tingxuan more time to escape.
There was a fierce battle in the long street. The Chu army seemed to be in an uninhabited territory. The soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty continued to flee. Qin Qiong put away his mace and glanced sideways at Gao Shun, Gao Chong, Yang Zaixing and Qin Liangyu.
"The generals will enter the Imperial Palace of the Southern Han Dynasty with a certain person. The generals will clean up the remaining enemy soldiers in the city. Remember not to harm the people."
The five men whinnied their horses, led the Wolf Warriors soldiers, and rushed towards the palace. They screamed in the long streets, and the wails disappeared into the void. Tens of thousands of Wolf Warrior soldiers arrived outside the palace wall.
The guards inside the palace wall heard the rumble of horse hooves and the clash of shields. The leading deputy commander of the guards gave an order, and all the soldiers fired arrows. Arrows that covered the sky flew from the palace wall. When it came out, it covered the sky and the sun like locusts all over the sky, and the world suddenly became dark.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
Qin Qiong heard the hissing sound coming from the void, narrowed her eyes slightly, and shouted in a rich voice: "Shield soldiers, defend!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The shield soldiers quickly raised their shields high, and all the soldiers were hidden under the shields. After a shower of arrows, no one of the soldiers of the Chu army was injured, and they were all safe and sound.
The Imperial Guards were crushed by arrows one after another, but it was of no use to the Chu army. Qin Qiong's maces spun in the air, and all the arrows flying down were shot down on the ground.
With murderous intent in his eyes, he raised his head and signaled Gao Shun to lead a group of trapped soldiers under his command and rush toward the entrance to the palace.
The killings in the Imperial City of the Southern Han Dynasty were still continuing, but at this time, in the vast grassland far northeast of Chu State, a powerful army was marching through the lush green grass into the depths of the grassland.
War horses galloped across the endless grassland, sweeping across the grassland like the wind, disappearing into the depths of the grassland amid flying dust. Only the sound of the galloping echoed in the ears, and the horse's neighing was remembered in the heart.
The splashed dust fell to the ground, and everything returned to its original state.
Night shrouded the grassland, and a full moon flashed out from the gaps in the fish-scale clouds. The hazy moonlight filled the grassland, like a rising piece of faint silver mist.
"Po Nu, look at where we are now on the map. How far are we from the Royal City of Dai Viet?"
Hear the sound.
Zhao Ponu took out the map from his arms and looked at the map intently with his eyes narrowed by the remaining ray of sunlight.
"Back to the general, we have now reached the territory of Shantu, the king of the left wing. This is only a hundred miles away from Shantu's fiefdom."
"Yeah?"
"The left-wing king single-handedly slaughtered the fiefdom?"
"I ordered the army to rest here and let the horses and soldiers have a good rest. Tonight, I, the general, will lead you and others to march straight in, advance with great singing, and break through the territory of Dai Viet Kingdom's left wing king Shan Tu in one fell swoop."
Huo Qubing jumped off his horse, looking at the remaining glow of the distant sky where the sky met, a domineering voice sounded.
King Shan Tu of the left wing was the younger brother of King Shan Li of Dai Yue. This man was very ambitious and had been attacking Wancheng. Because of King Dongli Yuanke of King Wancheng, he asked King Dan Li of Dai Yue to award the fiefdom closest to Wancheng.
Own.
He has known Wancheng well over the years, and this time the four countries united to attack Chu, his murderous heart, which had been silent for many years, became active again, and the entire fiefdom had already begun to prepare for the attack on Chu.
Strong war horses, gleaming sabers, sharp arrows, mellow wine, plump lambs, everything is ready before the war. Only the King of Dai Viet can give an order, and his cavalry can flatten the entire battlefield.
Wancheng, marched straight into the hinterland of Chu State.
However.
The eagle on the grassland has not yet taken off, but the hunter who is good at shooting has quietly approached them. A storm is coming, and the atmosphere on the entire grassland has become different from the past.
"General, if you calculate the time, General Yue and his party should soon reach the territory of the King of Right Wing of Dai Viet Kingdom."
"Yes, General Yue, General Zhou, and General Dugu led the Wancheng elite cavalry across the Aman Mountains and approached the territory of the right wing king of Dai Viet. As long as the two armies can encounter the enemy of Dai Viet, the battle will begin.
"
"This vast and boundless grassland will soon become the land of Chu. As for the King of Dayue, he will definitely only be worthy of being a prisoner of Chu."
When night falls, the dazzling stars hang high in the sky, and the bright moonlight envelopes the entire grassland.
"General, three hours have passed. Have you ordered the three armies to prepare for departure?"
"Three hours?"
Huo Qubing covered the water bag in his hand, his figure suddenly rose up, his eyes looked far away, staring in the direction of Shan Tu's territory. The bright moonlight fell on his figure, shining on the side of his face, and he could see the corners of his mouth curled up with evil intent.
Charming smile.
"Po Nu, order the three armies to mount their horses and rush into the territory of King Shantu on the left wing at night. This battle will be fought quickly and all the resisters will be killed on the spot!"
