Chapter 3560 This is not his battlefield
Gradually, countless flames gathered into a sea of fire, surrounding them.
The troops behind Li Wushang suddenly became a little panicked, but it was too late. The troops following them were obviously well-trained, and in an instant they had formed a semicircular encirclement behind them. In front of them was a fire with flames that had risen half a day high and Lu Linchuan and his group. They had no way to break out under such circumstances.
Li Wushang looked at the flames that had gathered, then turned back to look at Lu Linchuan, his eyes gloomy and fierce, and said in a deep voice: "You, you are deliberately-"
Lu Linchuan had recovered a lot by this time.
He said calmly, "If His Majesty the King of Yue can set up this trap to lure you into it, then why can't His Majesty the Emperor set up another trap based on His Majesty's trap to lure you into it?"
With just this one sentence, Li Wushang completely understood.
Chen Wenxiao beside him also turned pale.
Just now, he was still marveling at Zhu Feng's cleverness, planning all this to establish authority for his son. He was also glad that his plans were all seen through by Li Wushang, who used the trick to capture Han King Zhu Chengjun alive tonight. But now, he realized that even Li Wushang's "seeing through" and "taking advantage of the trick" were actually part of Zhu Feng's plan.
He pretended to be planning a clever battle to establish his son's authority, and he knew that his "plan" would definitely be seen through by Li Wushang. Li Wushang did see through it, and he dispatched troops to attack the north of Yongzhou City, and asked the people in the Yongzhou camp to go to the rescue, so he could not take care of this side. He himself brought his troops to intercept Han King Zhu Chengjun who was burning the food and grass.
But, from the beginning, Zhu Chengjun was not here.
Zhu Feng replaced Zhu Chengjun with Lu Linchuan, thus completely eliminating his weakness. He led his troops to follow Li Wushang's large group, and when the fire broke out here, he would surround them.
This time, the one who was truly surrounded was Li Wushang himself.
Although flames were shooting up into the sky before their eyes and the night wind blew with scorching heat on their faces, making them feel like they were in a sea of fire, Chen Wenxiao still felt his limbs were cold.
Zhu Feng is a man who is so smart that he is almost a demon. He is simply terrifying!
As soon as this thought came into his mind, he immediately felt an inexplicable fear of Zhu Feng. Although the two armies had not yet engaged in battle, he was already psychologically a little afraid.
In fact, everyone is like this.
All the troops who came with Li Wushang tonight were full of confidence, believing that they could capture His Royal Highness the King of Han of Yan Kingdom alive and make a great contribution. However, they did not expect that they fell into the opponent's trap. They were already weaker than the opponent in momentum, so as they watched the encirclement formed, they did not even have a decent resistance, and the troops on the edge kept shrinking inward.
Soon, they were surrounded in the center.
Li Wushang rode on horseback, constantly tightening the reins in his hands to control the horse that was sitting there in a panic, shaking its head and snorting. He watched the encirclement slowly tighten and approaching within a few feet of them. He could even clearly hear the low breathing sounds of the other side's horses, which rolled past his ears like muffled thunder.
At this moment, the Yan army formation slowly split apart from the middle.
A man on horseback came up from behind.
That familiar tall figure had been hanging over Li Wushang's heart like an lingering shadow over the years. At this moment, it once again covered his head, making him feel a little breathless.
It’s Zhu Feng.
He didn't even wear armor, and he still looked heroic in just a set of tights.
However, under the firelight, his overly pale face made him look not as murderous as before. If he had always been like a sword drawn from its sheath, sharp and ferocious, then over the years, he had been slowly sheathing his sword, dissipating his murderous intent bit by bit.
But Zhu Feng, who had lost his murderous intent, was still Zhu Feng.
Even if no sword or knife was used at this moment, it was enough to intimidate the Yue people in front of him, making them dare not even breathe.
Only Li Wushang kept staring at him.
Even his eyes were bloodshot and red.
Zhu Feng, however, was as calm as if he had just done something very ordinary. He rode forward without even a trace of emotion. He simply looked at the towering fire ahead, then at Li Wushang, whose face was gloomy beneath the flames, before he slowly said, "You are still a smart person."
Li Wushang gritted his teeth for a long moment before he said in a deep voice, "You don't have to mock me."
Zhu Feng said, "Since you've grown up beside me these years, it's naturally me who's been observing you, not you observing me. So, while I understand you, you may not truly understand me."
“…”
"However, you are right about one thing."
Li Wushang asked, "What?"
Zhu Feng sighed deeply and said calmly, "I am indeed old."
Upon hearing this, Ying Shao and Fang Buyuan, who were following him, immediately frowned and said softly, "Your Majesty."
No matter what, Zhu Feng should not "show weakness" in front of the enemy. What's more, he is not old at all. At least in the army, he still has immense prestige. As long as he is there, the army's willpower will increase exponentially and it will be invincible.
However, Zhu Feng simply raised his hand to stop them from saying anything. He looked at Li Wushang calmly and said, "I am old, so I need to find a successor to carry on my will in the army. He needs to be decisive and invincible."
“…”
"You're right about all of this."
Li Wushang turned his head and glanced at Lu Linchuan outside the fire scene, then sneered and said, "It's a pity that you still can't bear to let your son take risks on the battlefield, right?"
Zhu Feng said seriously: "This is not his battlefield."
Li Wushang's heart trembled.
Zhu Feng's words have two meanings.
The first floor is - this place is where the two of them will fight.
The second meaning is——
Zhu Chengjun's place to use his talents lies elsewhere.
A sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart, and he couldn't help but ask, "Then, where is his battlefield?"
Zhu Feng said, "You're absolutely right. I've been planning for the future of Yan and Yue. I need a 'young war god' who will win a battle and intimidate the rulers and ministers of Yue."
“…”
"And this place is obviously not a place where he can intimidate the rulers and ministers of Yue."
“…”
"In other words, I don't need him to intimidate you. He only needs to intimidate the ministers of Yue State. In the future, whenever he appears, they will be afraid and will oppose you from harming Yan State again. That will be enough."
“……!”
Li Wushang suddenly suffocated. He looked at Zhu Feng in disbelief: "You——"
