A deep and powerful voice came, and the two scouts gripped the broad swords at their waists and walked quickly towards the room.
"General, all the Chu troops and people in Hanyu City have disappeared. Now Hanyu City has become an empty city."
"Empty city?"
"What is the Chu army general trying to do? Take the initiative to give up the defense of Hanyu City?"
Pang Zhe had doubts on his face. He didn't know what the Chu army wanted. Hanyu City was the first city defense to enter the Chu Kingdom. If it was abandoned so easily, there must be something else going on.
"General, this is strange, it must be a conspiracy of the Chu army!"
"Wei Chen thought that the Chu army was trying to lure our army out of the border on its own initiative, so he thought of a surprise and defeated our army."
On the side, a commoner stood up, with a cold look on his face, a sly look in his eyes, and a determined voice.
"Commander Wu, what you said makes sense. We have a heavy responsibility this time. We must not be careless and fall into the Chu army's trap."
That's right, the one who was called Military Advisor Wu was Wu Yong who had a lucky escape after being defeated by the Yanlong Empire. At this moment, he once again became the military commander of the Ziyun Empire. To be precise, he became a guest of the Liang Kingdom.
"Then according to Sir's wishes, what should we do next?"
Pang Zhe's expression was solemn, his eyes flickered, and a doubtful voice sounded.
"Quietly watch the changes and respond to the changes by remaining unchanged!"
Wu Yong fluffed his sleeves and sat down, looking confident. He chuckled and stretched out his hand to signal Pang Zhe to sit down.
"General, my subordinates went to Hanyu City to investigate and found that the entire city was indeed deserted. Since we are staying behind closed doors wherever we are, why not go to Hanyu City, which has high walls and is impregnable."
The next scout spoke, his gaze resting on Pang Zhe, and he raised his hand and shouted sternly: "Okay, step back, you have nothing to do here!"
"Commander Wu, why is it that Han Yucheng is within easy reach, but Sir is unwilling to take it?"
"Easy to reach?"
"If it is really easy to get, unless the commander-in-chief of the Chu army is a fool, Hanming Pass is a hundred miles away from Hanyu City. It seems to be just a stone's throw away, but in fact it is difficult to reach the sky if you want to go to Hanyu City."
"You know the Chu army very well. They will never give up a city to us easily."
"I hope the general will think twice before he acts. As long as General Wancheng's mission is to go to Chu State, and the Chu State is defeated, the general will still have a great achievement. Why should he take the risk and put himself in danger?"
Hear the sound.
Pang Zhe nodded lightly, a look of approval appeared on his face, his eyes stayed on Wu Yong, and he laughed loudly.
"The military advisor has an insight into everything. I decided to follow the military advisor's advice and defend Hanming Pass to see what tricks the Chu army can play."
............
Hanyun City.
Zhuge Liang received the news from the spies that the enemy troops in Hanming Pass had not moved at all and showed no signs of sending troops into Hanyu City.
This news made Zhuge Liang fall into doubts. He was shocked and secretly guessed and muttered to himself.
"Could it be that Commander Ziyun saw through the empty city plan and guessed the Chu army's intentions?"
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan gently in his hand, and thoughts were racing in his mind. He always felt that there was something strange.
The Ziyun Empire raised troops to attack Chu, but why did they defend Hanming Pass? Could it be that they were just bait to keep all the elite Chu troops here.
Think about this.
Zhuge Liang's figure suddenly rose up and walked forward quickly, with a look of anxiety on his face. The thoughts that just flashed through his mind made him frightened.
If what he guessed was true, Ziyun Empire might have another cavalry force, launching a fierce attack into the hinterland of Chu State.
Suspecting the tactics of the army, he divided his forces and attacked the imperial city by surprise.
"not good!"
"Military advisor, what's wrong!"
Zhang Fei looked at Zhuge Liang's nervous look and asked anxiously with doubts on his face.
"Yide, Ziyun's enemy soldiers are defending Hanming Pass. This is a plan of suspicion and a trap. Immediately send an order to the generals to attack Hanming Pass."
Zhuge Liang knew that it was too late for his army to return to the imperial capital now. Only by seizing Hanming Pass as quickly as possible and sending his army north to defeat the Ziyun Empire in one fell swoop could the crisis in Chu be resolved.
Just as Zhuge Liang guessed, the king of Liang sent Ziyun's army to attack Hanming Pass, responsible for holding the elite Chu army hostage. However, the real army of Liang crossed Luoyun Mountain, traveled upstream along the ancient stream, and attacked Jiangyang City directly.
After conquering Jiangyang City, we can march straight in and march our troops straight into the Tiger Roaring Imperial City.
Of course, Zhuge Liang didn't know all this. Dozens of messengers in Hanyun City rode out of the city, dispersed and galloped toward the generals' headquarters outside the city, neighing in the wind.
As night falls, bright stars hang in the sky. In the wilderness outside Hanming Pass, the light of torches condenses into three long dragons. They surround Hanming Pass from three different directions.
Obviously.
After receiving Zhuge Liang's order, the generals quickly gathered at Hanming Pass to prepare for a fierce attack tonight.
However.
at this time.
Thousands of miles away, under a barren mountain, a group of people emerged from the jungle, and the bright moonlight fell on their figures.
"Emperor Chu, you have come out of the mountain now. A hundred miles ahead from here is Longshan Town, and further ahead is Longshan City."
"Longshan Town!"
"Longshan City?"
Chu Feifan knew that these two places belonged to the seventh-level Ziyun Empire, but he did not expect that after entering Qingming Mountain from Mingfeng City and traveling over mountains and ridges for several days, he would actually arrive at the land of Ziyun Empire.
"Tianya, it seems we can't enter Longshan Town tonight, let's camp out in a suitable place ahead!"
"We will enter Longshan Town at dawn tomorrow. After that, I will return to Chu State. As for your trip to Liang State, I will send someone to take you there when I return to Chu State."
"Thank you Emperor Chu for keeping your word!"
"Tianya, this is already the land of the Ziyun Empire, so don't call me Emperor Chu. What if you don't mind calling me Young Master like them?"
Although Duan Tianya has lived in a dwarf tribe since he was a child, he still understands a little about worldly things and nodded gently.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
After cupping his fists in greeting, Duan Tianya walked forward quickly, leading Chu Feifan and his party towards Longshan Town.
That night, Chu Feifan and his party slept outdoors in the woods ten miles outside Longshan Town.
That night, the Chu army under Hanming Pass launched a fierce attack, but failed to capture Hanming Pass three times in a row.
In desperation, Zhuge Liang ordered the army to retreat and decided to attack again at dawn.
At Hanming Pass, Pang Zhe looked at the Chu army retreating under the pass. The tense expression on his face finally relaxed, and he glanced sideways at Wu Yong, who was calm and relaxed beside him.
"Commander Wu, it seems that you are not worried at all that the Chu army will break through Hanming Pass."
"It's impossible. As long as we close the barrier according to the deployment of our military division, it will be impossible for the Chu army to break through the barrier in less than ten days and a half."
"However, we don't need to guard this pass for ten days at all. In five days at most, our emperor's cavalry will traverse the entire Chu land. By then, the Chu army under the pass will be lambs to be slaughtered, allowing us to slaughter them."
Wu Yong looked confident, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and his cold voice flew along the night wind.
