Ji Dong smiled warmly: "There is no need to rush this matter, just let it happen naturally. The most urgent task now is to win a victory as soon as possible. Chu State... do you have confidence?"

"rest assured!"

Ji Su smiled faintly: "I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Ji Dong nodded slightly, turned around and looked at Nangong Yan: "Yan'er, when Ji Su's army comes out in full force, you must guard Yixian Gorge well. If the Chu army sneaks in, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

Nangong Yan smiled gently: "I will teach Ying Wuji to go but never come back!"

then.

The three of them conspired for a while.

Happy parting.

After watching Nangong Yan leave, Ji Dong put his hands behind his back and looked at the map on the wall.

That One Line Gorge was an excellent route for a surprise attack on the State of Chu. After crossing the One Line Gorge, they could rush to the capital of the State of Yan in another fifty miles.

But it is also an excellent place for counter-ambush. If the Chu State brings the elite among the elite, it will certainly be difficult for ordinary soldiers to ambush them, but the black-armored army led by Nangong Yan will definitely be able to wipe them out.

This is an extremely dangerous game for both parties.

It all depends on who is actually in control of the situation behind the scenes.

Although he replaced Nangong Yan's original soul with the mirror image, he did not completely cut off the connection, which meant that Ying Wuji could still monitor him.

This arrogant boy thought he had Nangong Yan under his control, so there was no way he would not take advantage of this opportunity.

With the help of internal and external forces, they defeated the ambush of the Black Armor Legion, passed through the First Line Gorge, and then attacked Huanglong directly.

"but……"

Ji Dong crossed his arms with an amused look on his face. He was looking forward to seeing what kind of wonderful expression Ying Wuji would have when he thought he could control Nangong Yan as a mirror image, but ended up having to face the most murderous Black Armor Legion.

He smiled slightly.

Ying Wuji was the most difficult enemy he had ever encountered. It seemed that he could learn all the magic skills in the world just by taking a look at them.

This also led to Ying Wuji often using many strange and bizarre tricks.

But this time, Ying Wuji was going to be defeated by his own strange mirror.

It’s a bit difficult to kill Ying Wuji this time.

But as long as the army that attacked King Yan's palace was completely wiped out, he would be able to instigate a crisis of trust among the King of Chu in Ying Wuji.

arrogant.

There is a price to pay!

…

Overnight.

The war, which had been dormant for a year, suddenly reignited.

The alliance launched a massive attack on Chu, and most of Chu's northern border was in flames. Except for the troops of Yan who stayed behind to contain Li, nearly 80% of the other troops in the alliance were mobilized.

The borders of Chu Yan, Chu Wu, and Chu Qi were once filled with the sounds of swords and weapons.

For a time, the State of Chu was in a very difficult situation.

Even though the border cities have been basically reinforced, they are still somewhat unable to withstand this kind of flooding.

The situation of Chu was different from that of Li. Li had Wei and Han as a buffer. Even if it went to war with the alliance, it only needed to defend those cities, so they were able to arm those cities to the teeth.

On the other hand, it was impossible for the Chu State to equip all its cities with sufficient artillery.

In addition, the Black Armor Legion was camouflaged and moved around in various places on the battle line, making it difficult for the Chu State to figure out where the main force of the alliance was.

Therefore, even though the military strength has become much stronger, there is often a feeling of being stretched to the limit.

Even a truly mighty city is not afraid.

Some less important cities face too much pressure.

It would have been fine if I had not been ambushed by Nangong Yan, but if I had been ambushed by Nangong Yan, it would have been really painful.

The entire northern border of Chu State seemed to be poured with oil, and a spark would spread over thousands of miles, burning both sides to death. After all, the army of Chu State was not weak, and with the addition of artillery, the allied forces did not have such an easy time.

but.

The Chu State was still under great pressure. In just one month, they lost three cities.

After all, the alliance brought together the national strength of several countries, and before Wu and the craftsmen left, their main focus was on siege equipment. It was not an easy task to defend the city.

So to speak.

During this grand court meeting, the entire Chu court was on edge.

Fortunately, Ying Wuji volunteered to serve as the Grand Marshal of the Chu State, which made people feel a little relieved.

After all, Ying Wuji led the Chu army and won three major battles, including the Chu-Qi, Chu-Gan and Pingyao battles.

After the grand court meeting ended.

After the civil and military officials left, Mi Duo kept the crown prince, the princess, and the Grand Marshal of the Nation.

"Wuji!"

Mi Duo rubbed his head and said, "Are we really unable to get help from the Li Kingdom this time?"

Mi Xingli took over the conversation: "Father! You know the relationship between Wuji and Li State. This time they are willing to contain them in Suicheng because of Wuji's face.

Now there are Wei and Han to the south of Li State, so sending troops will inevitably be greatly constrained.

If they are willing to send a large army to support you in this situation, then you should be worried about whether Wuji is the consort of Chu or Li."

She knew the relationship between Ying Wuji and the State of Li.

At this critical juncture, we must explain for Ying Wuji.

Otherwise, it would not only be bad for Ying Wuji, but also for himself. If it caused suspicion among the people within the State of Chu, the consequences would be even more disastrous.

"well……"

Mi Duo sighed softly.

Ying Wuji smiled and said, "Father, don't worry. Our Great Chu has sufficient food and grass, and our soldiers are strong and powerful. On the other hand, although the enemy is coming fiercely, there are already hidden concerns within. Even if we can't win, as long as we delay for a year or two, they will collapse on their own. What's more..."

"this……"

Mi Duo knew what Ying Wuji was talking about, but he was still a little hesitant. He lowered his voice and asked, "Does that mirror image really work? Can't Ji Dong find out that it is a mirror image?"
