Chapter 1681: A backup plan that has been buried for five months (happy May 1st) _2
“So it’s the same purpose as the Supreme rank.” Wei Yuan came to a realization. He drank the lukewarm tea in one gulp and said, ”
“The Tribulation will end in four days. En, immediately order the Yongzhou troops to retreat and defend the capital.”
How did he know that the transcendent rank and Emperor Bai were after the same thing … Huaiqing had never seen the will that Wei Yuan left for Xu Qi ‘an. After a moment of confusion, he was shocked by Wei Yuan’s words. He frowned and said,
“Yang Gong is seriously injured and unconscious, and the Yongzhou Garrison is without a leader, waiting for you to take charge of the situation. Yongzhou is the last line of defense, why should we give it to others for nothing?”
Wei Yuan slowly added hot water and smiled, ”
“I just want to give Yongzhou to him.”
Seeing huaiqing’s frown, Wei Yuan explained, ”
Xu Pingfeng is a second-grade Warlock. He must have known that I’ve been resurrected. How do you think he’d react if we were in his position? ”
Huaiqing analyzed,
“Since you have just resurrected, and before you can control the situation and the Army, we should attack quickly and take down Yongzhou. He won’t give you the time.”
Wei Yuan asked again, ”
“Da Feng’s elites have long been wiped out, do you think Yongzhou can be defended?”
Huaiqing shook his head and pursed his lips.
“But we can still take out a portion of the main force of the cloud region Army.”
Wei Yuan shook his head, ”
“You can’t fight a war like this. Yongzhou didn’t have many elites left, but there were in the capital. There were still 10000 imperial soldiers in the capital, the last of Da Feng’s military strength. The capital had the best cannons and equipment, as well as the strongest city walls. There was no lack of experts. The nobles had many experts.
“The capital still has the great city-guarding formation personally carved by the supervisor. Although the power of the formation is greatly reduced without his control, it is still a strong defense. Isn’t it more worth it to gather the campsite-less Imperial Army and the remaining troops of Yongzhou than to let yang Gong and the others die in the city?”
The great city-guarding formation was laid down when the capital was first built.
When Dafeng was founded, Emperor Gaozu built the capital here, and all the sorcerers of the Imperial astronomer participated in the construction.
The corresponding materials were put into the city walls and the formations were carved. The first supervisor was in charge of the planning. No one knew how many formations were hidden in the seemingly ordinary and tall city walls of the capital.
After the current supervisor was appointed, the capital’s formations were greatly transformed, which cost the court nearly half a year’s tax.
Other than the capital, only some of the important main cities at the border had formations, but they were only some rough city-guarding formations.
This thing was really too costly.
But we have no way out … Huaiqing frowned and didn’t say anything. Wei Yuan continued,
“This is the best way to deal with it. In Xu Pingfeng’s eyes, it was a choice I would make. This is very important.”
Huaiqing frowned.
“What do you mean?”
Wei Yuan looked in the direction of Yongzhou, ”
“It means to end the battle quickly.”
…………
Late at night.
40 li away from Yongzhou City, cloud Prefecture’s military camp.
In the tent, more than a dozen generals had gathered. Compared to when they had just left Yunzhou, the generals who could enter Qi Guangbo’s tent to discuss matters had been replaced by many new faces.
Zhuo Haoran, Wang Chu, and other experienced generals with high cultivation had all died on the battlefield.
The newly promoted people were either lacking in cultivation or experience in leading an Army.
Compared to the losses of the elite troops, the deaths of these high-ranking generals were what Qi Guangbo felt the most distressed about.
An experienced general could sometimes decide the outcome of a battle. If not, why was it said that it was easy to get a thousand troops, but hard to get a single general?
However, at this point in the battle, great Feng’s losses would only be even greater.
Not only did they wipe out all the elites, but even the Yongzhou general yang Gong’s life was hanging by a thread. At this time, the Yongzhou Army was like a dragon without a leader. The one with the highest official position was Yongzhou’s chief governor, Yao Hong, a scholar.
As for the Yongzhou Commander-in-Chief, he was a descendant of an aristocratic family who was lying on the merit book of his ancestors and waiting for his death.
Yongzhou was close to the capital and connected the north and south. It had been rich since ancient times and rarely had any military disasters.
Therefore, from top to bottom, the combat power of the Army was extremely weak, and it had always been a good place for the disciples of the aristocratic families to gilded their skills.
After the battle of Chenzhou, the elites of Da Feng had been almost completely wiped out. Taking down Yongzhou was a matter of time.
However, the Yun state Army had also suffered heavy losses. The soldiers were exhausted, and Qi Guangbo’s Army had almost been completely wiped out in Chenzhou.
Hence, even though the cloud Prefecture Army was stationed outside Yongzhou City, they only faced off and did not fight. They recuperated while waiting for the Tribulation to end.
But today, a piece of news that made the high-level officials of the Yunzhou Army’s scalp tingle came from the Imperial advisor.
Wei Yuan had come back to life!
At this critical moment, Wei Yuan was resurrected.
Anyone who had a military background would know of Wei Yuan’s name.
The God of War who won the Battle of Shanhai Pass was destined to be recorded in history.
Even if Yunzhou were to rule the world in the future, when the historians compiled history, they would not be able to avoid this once-in-a-thousand-years Marshal.
“What do you mean, state preceptor?”
Yang Chuannan looked at Ji Xuan and then at Qi Guangbo.
Ji Xuan had returned to the military camp today, which meant that the extraordinary battle in Yongzhou had ended. However, there was no news of the death of kou Yangzhou or sun Xuanji. It was not hard to guess that both sides had only temporarily stopped fighting.
Ji Xuan said in a deep voice,
“Imperial Preceptor’s meaning is to take down Yongzhou at all costs. Then, we’ll head north to confront the capital and not give Wei Yuan a chance.”
Qi Guangbo’s face was solemn, but his eyes were full of energy and he had an unprecedented fighting spirit. He added, ”
take the capital, welcome His Majesty, and hold the coronation ceremony. At that time, the Imperial advisor will refine the fate of the capital, and the Imperial court will no longer have the power to reverse the situation.
Yang Chuannan nodded, ”
“This is indeed the best way.”
The other generals didn’t say anything and just nodded.
