Back to the Song Dynasty: The Rise of an Empire

If the Tang Empire won, it would say to its opponents: "You damn well behave yourself in the future, or be careful that I wipe out your entire clan. Pay tribute obediently every year!"

Chapter 217 Yue Fei's three armies pressed in, their momentum unstoppable!

Ruan Jinghe's deputy general said to him, "The Song army is stationed north of the river, so it would be better to launch a surprise attack at night."

Ruan Jinghe immediately rejected the decision. He gave the deputy general a severe scolding and ordered that no further suggestions to attack be made. He wanted to wear Yue Fei down here!

Zhang Boyu also gave Ruan Jinghe a death order: he was not allowed to act rashly, or he would be executed.

Having blocked the Song army north of the river, Zhang Boyu was extremely arrogant and boasted that the Song army would surely retreat within a month.

But to everyone's surprise, Zhenla sent troops!

And they've even sent troops to Jiaozhi!

At this moment, all the elite troops of Jiaozhi were stationed at the Fuliang River. The Zhenla army fought its way from the western front of Jiaozhi, and the military intelligence reports sent back to Zhang Boyu were becoming more and more urgent.

Zhang Boyu was completely dumbfounded!

He wrote a letter denouncing the King of Zhenla for his treachery!

Three days later, he received another military intelligence report that was enough to give him a heart attack: Champa in the south had sent 30,000 troops and was advancing all the way here!

At this point, Zhang Boyu realized that Jiaozhi was already beset by internal and external troubles, but he dared not tell Li Yanghuan the truth. When some ministers in the court tried to tell Li Yanghuan the truth, he killed all of them.

In short, only an ostrich mentality could make Zhang Boyu feel a little better.

Under such pressure, Zhang Boyu had no choice but to withdraw 100,000 troops from Fuliangjiang to protect the capital at Shenglong City.

On this day, the left wing army led by Yang Zaixing traveled south by boat from Sumao.

As night fell, when the moon was bright and the stars were few, they suddenly appeared on the battlefield of the Fu Liang River and launched the fiercest attack on the Jiaozhi army without anyone noticing.

P.S.: Guys, I have something to do today, so I can only post two chapters. I'll make up for it tomorrow. Sorry!

I was criticized by readers for combining the previous long chapters. I'll ask again, does anyone have any objections to releasing long chapters? If so, I'll release them tomorrow!
