Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2192 A Three-pronged Attack Traps Xuanyuan, the Ma Clan of Zhennan Faces a Deadly Situation

Li Jing captured the Guangyang Circuit overnight, and not only wiped out almost half of the garrison troops in Guangyang Circuit.

More importantly, all of the most important officials and generals of the Great Yan in Guangyang Road were lost in this battle, and almost none of them escaped.

It was precisely because of this that when Xu Huang led his 150,000 troops into Guangyang, Guangyang had virtually no power to resist.

The generals of the Great Yan in various parts of Guangyang, such as Liu Xianglong, Gu Kecheng, Deng Mao, Guan Hai, and Li Damu, were all without any command over each other, and their troops were not particularly elite.

As a result, they could only be defeated one by one by Xu Huang. Except for Guan Hai, who was lucky enough to escape with his life, the rest of them basically lost their lives at the hands of the Han army.

By October of the fourth year of the Yuanshi era, within a short month, the entire Guangyang region had almost fallen into the control of the Han Dynasty.

This speed of progress was something that was unimaginable back in Heyang Road.

Li Jing's advance in Heyang Road was quite fast, but after more than three months, Guangyuan County was still the only one of the ten counties in Heyang that he had not yet captured.

However, the entire Guangyang Road fell into Li Jing's hands in just one month.

Most importantly, Li Jing's army had almost taken over the territory of the Xuanyuanhuang region. It should be noted that the Xuanyuanhuang Great Yan only had four regions in total.

However, Li Jing not only advanced quickly, but his troops also suffered almost no losses and remained almost intact.

Throughout the entire campaign, Li Jing either won through strategy, overwhelming the enemy with superior forces, or launched surprise attacks, minimizing troop losses.

"Koos, you traitorous scoundrel!" Upon receiving this news, Xuanyuan Huang's eyes blazed with fury.

Qingnan Road is diagonally opposite Guangyang Road, so news about Guangyang Road reached Xuanyuan Huang quite quickly.

Among those present, Xue Ju and Chu Suiliang were both filled with grief and indignation.

After all, their two fathers had died in the Battle of Guangyang.

"I even suspected my brother Jingcheng, but I never suspected this person. It was truly my fault!" Xuanyuan Huang shook his head and sighed.

At this moment, many questions that have remained unanswered for so many years have finally been resolved.

"Your Majesty, Coeus is problematic, and Tethys is certainly no good either!"

"I'm afraid there's something fishy about this person's death too!"

“Even including those other martial slaves! And Wang Xianzhi…” Feng Hou guessed.

The reason they excluded Thetis in the matter concerning Xuanyuan Changyi was based on the premise that the other party was already dead.

But judging from the current situation, is this woman really dead?
"Send the order to arrest those slaves!"

"Also! Send a message to the Crown Prince, instructing him to organize troops to besiege and suppress King Xianzhi of Wudi City!"

Even Xuanyuan Huang gritted his teeth as he thought of Koos and his ilk at this moment.

If it weren't for these two people, they wouldn't have suffered such a rapid defeat in this battle!
You should know that at this time, the Ma family of Zhennan had already sent out troops!

It was because of Koos that Xuanyuan Huang began to suspect the other few surviving slaves as well.

Although it is true that several of these military slaves died in battle because of him, which is why Xuanyuan Huang gradually came to trust them.

However, with the exposure of Koos, all those filters from the past have completely faded away.

After all, what does it matter if a few high-level pawns are sacrificed?
To put it bluntly, apart from Coeus and his companion, the rest were only grandmaster-level figures.

A grandmaster, in the martial arts world, is considered a powerful figure. But in the imperial court's power structure... However, in reality, the other martial slaves really have no problems at all.

Planting twelve hidden agents all at once—if even one of them is exposed, it will cause a whole host of problems.

It would be better to make the remaining ten real ones to cover up the last two.

"Your Majesty, now that Koos and his men have been exposed, they can no longer truly threaten our army!"

"Now, what our Great Yan should really be worried about is the attitude of the Ma family of Zhennan?" Feng Hou replied with concern.

When these people are hiding, they are naturally a constant threat to the Great Yan, but once they are exposed, what are they?
"Arrange for people to go to Zhennan immediately. We must keep them calm!" Xuan Yuanhuang ordered immediately.

However, in fact, at this moment, Xuanyuan Huang's heart also sank.

Now, the territory they control is completely separated from the Ma family of Zhennan. Even if they send officials to contact them, how long would it take to get there without troop transport vehicles to directly connect them?

From a strategic perspective, Li Jing's capture of Guangyang Road directly severed the connection between the Great Yan and the Ma family of Zhennan.

From then on, a situation was formed in which the East Sea Road, the core stronghold of the Great Yan Dynasty, could be threatened to the east, and in turn, the Yangdong Road, the stronghold of the Zhennan Ma clan, could be threatened to the west.

This created a situation where the Ma family of Zhennan, who had already sent troops to Guangyin, were caught in a siege of Wei to rescue Zhao.

From this point on, the Great Han had completely encircled the Great Yan from both the north and the west.

Furthermore, with Mo Peng's 100,000-strong Fierce Whale Legion, he could travel by sea at any time to directly attack the East China Sea.

Now that the battle has progressed to this point, the Han Dynasty has gained a complete strategic initiative against the Yan Dynasty.

Politically speaking, the fact that the Great Yan was able to invite the Ma family of Zhennan to send troops to help them, and that Guangyang Road, which Li Jing is currently occupying, is a condition that the Great Yan agreed to for the Ma family of Zhennan.

However, Li Jing has now completely taken a radical approach.

Since Li Jing had already taken away the original bargaining chips of the Great Yan, the Ma family of Zhennan naturally had no reason to send troops to help them.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Huang and Feng Hou are so worried about the attitude of the Zhennan Ma family at this time!

If the Ma family of Zhennan chooses to withdraw their troops because of this matter, then the situation in the Great Yan will deteriorate to its extreme.

Surrounded on multiple sides, and with their sea routes potentially under threat, they have far too many areas to defend.

This also means that one of their defenses could be breached at any time.

At this juncture, Zhennan's attitude is crucial. If they don't help Da Yan tie down a portion of Da Han's troops, how long can Da Yan hold out?

In fact, when the news reached the Ma family in Zhennan, some of them were already considering leaving.

Both were fighting against the Han Dynasty, but the significance of Guangyang Road was completely different depending on whether it was ceded to them by the Great Yan or seized from the Han Dynasty.

Similarly, the Great Yan's performance, losing all its territory in just a few months, greatly disappointed the Ma family of Zhennan.

Given the current strategic situation among the various parties, and seeing no possibility that the Great Yan could stop the Great Han, some members of the Zhennan faction naturally did not want to continue fighting.

If they continue attacking Guangyin, their stronghold will also face the danger of Li Jing's military might.

However, it was precisely when the war faction and the war-obsessed faction were arguing in Zhennan, and when he was struggling with whether or not to withdraw his troops, that he was in a dilemma.

The annihilation of the Ma family of Zhennan also arrived silently.
