Fengcheng.
Zhou Chen led his army to station nearby. This place was a fortress! Only by passing through here could their army go to the rear and reach the territory near the Miao Kingdom.
That is the real base camp of the Miao army.
In fact, it is also the lair of King Nannan. This city must be firmly controlled. They will never be able to get out unless they break through, and they can fight like trapped beasts.
Although Zhou Chen didn't know what was going on with Lu Yun, he was waiting for the report from the spies ahead, and soon he got the news.
"Report!"
"General, the Miao army has been defeated and is heading towards our Fengcheng."
"Besides, they are moving very fast. It seems that they are going back to the southern territory."
"That is, outside of Fengcheng!"
"What!" Zhou Chen was shocked. He didn't expect the Miao Kingdom to be defeated so quickly. Logically speaking, the Miao army was so powerful that it was impossible for it to be defeated so thoroughly!
How could they be defeated like this? What on earth were they doing?
Could it be that they did it on purpose?
"General, I've checked the information and found that the Miao army was fast asleep that night when Lu Yun of the Great Zhou commanded a surprise attack!"
"Because they were caught off guard and completely unprepared, the Miao army was quickly defeated. I heard that the Great Zhou soldiers performed very bravely that night, and they also had an extremely special weapon."
"The Miao army had no way to stop them. Even the heavy cavalry couldn't stop them. In the end, they abandoned the city and fled in our direction."
Zhou Chen was shocked when he heard this expression. He really couldn't understand what ability this Lu had to cause the Miao army to be defeated like this.
It was so powerful! He now admired this eunuch more and more. He defeated the Miao army by himself, which would definitely go down in history. He was now more and more curious about what the mysterious weapon he was talking about was.
"General, now that they have come to our Fengcheng, it won't be easy for them to get through here."
"We must make them suffer. We can even unite with the army from the Great Zhou and surround them."
Zhou Chen shook his head when he heard this and decided to do as the eunuch surnamed Lu said.
I can only say that he is really capable.
At this time, on Lu Yun's side, Liang Jing was also a little confused as to why a gap had to be opened.
"Actually, I think we can take this opportunity to defeat their army in one fell swoop. Why would we just let them go and pretend we can't defeat them? Isn't that redundant?"
"When they return to their base, recuperate and continue to replenish their forces, and have sufficient food and fodder, then it may be difficult for us to fight again."
Liang Jing But this analysis is indeed very reasonable, and even many soldiers in the camp think so.
They also believed that they could take this opportunity to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop instead of letting the tiger go back to the mountain.
Such a good opportunity, why not seize the opportunity?
Lu Yun explained mysteriously, "Your Majesty, I know what you are thinking."
"We can indeed take this opportunity to annihilate the enemy. After all, their morale seems to have dropped significantly and they look disorganized."
"But, Your Majesty, have you ever considered that if you treat them like trapped beasts, they might unleash their powerful potential at this moment."
"If they want to survive, if they want to live, then they will become extremely powerful at this moment. The high priest is no pushover either. As the general of the Miao nation, he will also boost morale."
"Another thing is that no matter how hard we try to chase and intercept them, they're still escaping very quickly. More importantly, passing through a city will only help them, but we'll be blocked and slowed down considerably."
"The Shu army led by General Zhou may seem to have won many battles, but in reality, they haven't even touched the Miao army. In my opinion, they will definitely lose miserably."
"If we fight with all our might, we won't be able to hold on. We might even be defeated. It's better to just let them pass and fight briefly."
Liang Jing frowned in surprise upon hearing this, but also a little curious, "How can you be so sure that General Zhou is really unbeatable?"
Lu Yun laughed and explained, "I really can't beat him!"
"You can tell from the momentum of the battle on the Shu side."
"Don't worry, even if we return to our old nest, our two armies combined will become extremely powerful. When the time comes, I will be in charge of the battle and will definitely be able to defeat the Miao Kingdom and drive them back to their homeland."
"Okay, I trust you this time. I believe you can do it."
…
At this time, in the Miao camp.
The army led by the high priest Luo Feng was defeated quickly. Indeed, the large city behind them belonged to their own people. There was no resistance at all and they rushed out directly.
At the same time, he also issued a death order, which was to try every possible means to delay the troops from the Great Zhou so that they would not break through the city so quickly.
Of course he knew that he was being surrounded, and anyone could see that he had to break through!
Otherwise, they would be completely cut off from all contact, and naturally there would be no hope of winning.
"Prince Nan'an, after this battle, this general suddenly realized that you are still somewhat useful. So, this time, you will lead the army!"
"Also, in your opinion, is our current situation optimistic?"
Prince Nan'an was stunned for a moment. He briefly analyzed the situation and then hurriedly explained, "General, I know the generals of Shu better.
He is a vindictive person, and he also has a rather strong character. After learning that we were defeated, he wanted to retreat to the south of Fengcheng."
"Then this fool will definitely try every possible way to stop us, and he will seek revenge and find a way to reduce our military strength."
"This is a bloody battle for us. As long as it is over, we can gain new hope."
"From what I know about him, his command in battle is just that, he's just a warrior who relies on brute force, so we don't have to worry at all, it will just be a slight waste of energy.
As long as we can successfully break through before the Great Zhou army arrives, we will be able to regain hope."
Their breakout now has a time limit, which is that they must break through before the arrival of Da Zhou. Indeed, it is a bit difficult.
"General, our morale is quite low right now. You must do everything you can to convince the soldiers and give them hope. Just tell them that the enemy isn't that strong.
And our chances are great; we just need to break through the enemy blockade and return to our territory."
"Give our soldiers a boost of energy. Only you can do it! We also need to convince them that the Shu army is not that powerful."
"good."
