Chapter 1030 The fight really came
General Chen was about to reply when he heard a deafening explosion in his ears.
"General, the enemy is attacking!"
Zhao Bing's heart suddenly sank, and he opened his mouth and said, "Quickly retreat!"
If we confront the Hubei Northern Army head-on at this time, we will not die fast enough!
But Zhao Ling said to General Chen firmly: "General Chen, pass the order down, everyone must fight. Anyone who avoids the battle will be killed without mercy!"
General Chen was stunned for a moment, then decisively bowed to Zhao Ling and said, "I obey your command!"
After he finished speaking, he went down to make arrangements.
Zhao Bing's face was as gloomy as water, staring coldly at Zhao Ling, "Brother, you are overstepping your bounds. If you don't retreat now, are you waiting to be captured alive by the Hubei Northern Army?"
"Idiot!" Zhao Ling clenched his fists, nearly punching Zhao Bing in the face. "The Ebei army clearly has ill intentions. If you retreat now, your father won't even have time to respond!"
Who could have thought that the Hubei Northern Army would actually attack? No matter what, he had to buy time for the Zhao Wang Army on the shore.
Zhao Bing was unwilling to accept the defeat and was about to exercise his authority as commander of the army, but Zhao Ling was quicker than him. He turned around and said to the people around him, "Keep an eye on the Third Young Master. Ask him to return to the cabin and not go anywhere until the battle is over!"
After Zhao Ling finished speaking, he left in a hurry, without even having time to look at Zhao Bing.
On the other hand, Sheng Ze led 20,000 elite soldiers from the Firearms Battalion and 30,000 soldiers from northern Hubei to launch a full-scale attack on Chenzhou.
The so-called comprehensive attack naturally does not only involve the Lanjiang battlefield, but the largest number of troops from northern Hubei are concentrated here. The other troops are led by Liang Cheng, Xuyang, Nian Manzi and others, who are determined to catch King Zhao off guard.
"Master, why did you give the credit for the battle to that barbarian Lao Niu?" Ling Yun followed Sheng Ze and asked in a low voice with some confusion.
This kind of merit on the battlefield can help the master win over the morale of the troops, so as to prevent any generals from becoming too powerful and threatening the master in the future. However, the master gave up the opportunity.
That’s right, in fact, although Shengze led these 50,000 people and seemed to be very powerful, they were actually not the main force of the Hubei North Army.
Sheng Ze stared at the large ship on the Lan River and said calmly, "If I hadn't appeared here, do you think King Zhao would have been fooled?"
This tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west was an open conspiracy, and even if King Zhao saw through it, he could do nothing about it.
Ling Yun suddenly realized what was going on. "So that's how it is. Master is really amazing. Why didn't I think of that?"
Although the greatest credit still goes to Niu Manzi, a master with such strategy is definitely more powerful no matter how you look at it.
"Alright, you are not allowed to be distracted on the battlefield. If you fail to capture the enemy general later, military punishment is not something that can be dealt with casually." Sheng Ze glanced at him.
The reason why he kept Ling Yun by his side was because his skills were the best among the people around him, and it would be safest to give the task of capturing the king to him.
Ling Yun suddenly stood up straight, his expression serious, "I will definitely fulfill your mission!"
Before Shen Yong left, he made a bet with him that if he failed to complete the task assigned by his master, he would have to teach the boy another set of boxing techniques. He didn't have the patience for that.
Besides, that little girl Shen Qingning had always shown her disdain for him, intentionally or unintentionally, in the past few days. He had to take this opportunity to show off his abilities so that those two wouldn't be unaware of his abilities.
Here, Shengze and his men were full of fighting spirit, but upon receiving the news, King Zhao threw his cup and said, "Shengze, you treacherous villain!"
"Your Majesty, now is not the time to curse. Please consider how we should respond."
