Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 511
ancient state.

Jingfu City.

Although Xu Ning regained lost territory one after another with great momentum, most of the ancient state is still in the hands of the Jin Kingdom.

Xiao Feiyu finally returned and sat among the army in person. Looking at the battle report sent up by mail, there was no big fluctuation in his expression.

Deputy General Tie Muyan reported on the situation during this period. When he heard that Jing Jun had taken out gunpowder, Xiao Feiyu paused and didn't pay too much attention.

Qian Jing has a close relationship, and now that Jing Guo is being attacked and is in a critical situation, Qian Guo will naturally not sit idly by.

Picking up the latest battle report sent by the scout, Xiao Feiyu glanced at it twice and said with a smile: "So there is a wave of enemy troops sneaking into our rear?"

Temuyan said respectfully: "Yes, this wave of enemy troops is extremely powerful and their whereabouts are secretive. My subordinates have not taken any advantage against them several times."

"They often harass our army, and the supplies they transport have been cut off by them several times, which is very annoying. They seem to be called dragon warriors."

As he spoke, Tiemuyan said with shame: "They are far more familiar with the terrain than we are. They hide deep in the mountains after every sneak attack. We cannot send out a large army to encircle and suppress them. It's because my subordinates are not doing things well. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists, so there is no need to worry about them."

Xiao Feiyu said calmly: "Since they like to conduct sneak attacks, let them conduct sneak attacks and expose the location of Granary No. [-] to them."

Temuyan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized: "The prince wants to encircle and suppress them?"

Xiao Feiyu picked up the next secret report: "Go, don't let anyone go."

Temuyan quickly bowed: "I understand."

After making simple arrangements, Xiao Feiyu continued to look at the battle reports during his absence these days.

I secretly thought in my heart that it’s time to start.

……

Inside Xiaotianguan.

Zhao Kang did not go to the front line. Now that Jingguo's battle situation has stabilized and he has the upper hand, there is really no need for him to do anything.

Jingguo continued to develop gunpowder and sent it to various states for use by generals in various places. As a result, Yizhou, which Jin State divided its troops to attack, also encountered considerable resistance.

It's a pity that making bombs can't be accomplished at once. Otherwise, Jing Guo could have made bombs for cannons by himself.

While he was thinking, someone knocked on the door urgently. Zhao Kang opened the door and saw that Chen Jianghe was a little anxious: "National Preceptor, Fengyun Tower secret report."

Zhao Kang quickly opened it, and then his heart sank.

The secret report stated that the Zhou army was moving towards Youzhou and would arrive outside Youzhou Pass in a short time.

They did not start from Tongzhou this time, but chose Youzhou, which is very close to the imperial capital!
"Xiao Feiyu, you really have a few brushes!"

Zhao Kang's eyes flashed, and Zhou Guoguo's sudden action was within his expectation, so it was not a big surprise.

But reading the end of the secret report really surprised Zhao Kang.

Now that that guy Li Muyi has ascended to the throne, the old emperor Li Chengkun was assassinated in the palace?
Good boy, this guy really took action!
Thinking of Xiao Feiyu, Zhao Kang's heart jumped suddenly: "Isn't this guy Li Chengkun who asked Xiao Feiyu to kill him?"

Only he can kill an emperor in the heavily guarded palace.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kang was a little lucky to have asked Her Majesty the Empress and others to hide in the army in advance.

Now that Zhou State has sent troops to threaten Youzhou, he can no longer stay in Jing State.

"Old Chen, go and invite Hongxue and Mr. Xu."

Chen Jianghe nodded quickly.

Soon Ye Hongxue, Xu Ning and others arrived. Seeing Zhao Kang's serious face, Ye Hongxue asked, "What's wrong?"

"The State of Zhou has sent troops to the State of Qian."

Ye Hongxue was startled, then realized: "Are you going back to Qian Country?"

Zhao Kang nodded: "The main purpose of Zhou Guo's sending troops this time is probably to delay Qian Guo and prevent Qian Guo from supporting Jing Guo. I have to go back and check the situation. It is best to defeat Zhou Guo as soon as possible, so I can't continue Stayed.”

Xu Ning heard this: "I will immediately ask someone to prepare a fast horse."

Zhao Kang was a little apologetic: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu." Xu Ning exclaimed: "What are you saying, Imperial Master? You have already helped us a lot. Besides, when you defeat the Zhou army, you will not sit back and watch us fight against the enemy alone." Isn’t it?”

Zhao Kang smiled and said, "That's true. When I defeat the Zhou Kingdom, I will personally lead a large army to help the Jing Kingdom."

Zhao Kang's eyes turned cold as he spoke: "Since they want to be our enemies regardless of life and death, then they won't even have a chance to regret it. Four countries are indeed a lot!"

Xu Ning was startled, and then he felt proud: "Okay! Fortunately, we can destroy them all in one go!"

The two looked at each other and laughed loudly. Xu Ning went to prepare the horse. Zhao Kang looked at Ye Hongxue and asked with hot eyes: "Go back with me?"

Hearing Zhao Kang's words, Ye Hongxue struggled in her heart.

Nowadays, she is no longer the female martial arts goddess and general of the Jing Kingdom.

She was just a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, and her cultivation was given to Zhao Kang, so she no longer had to charge into battle.

In my heart, I had long wanted to drop everything and follow Zhao Kang back to Qian Country to live their lives together.

But now that Jingguo is being invaded by foreign enemies, how can she just leave?
Seeing her hesitation, Zhao Kang already understood and smiled helplessly: "I understand."

"sorry."

Ye Hongxue sighed and came forward to hug him.

"Silly girl, I'm sorry for what you say."

Holding the woman's slender waist, Zhao Kang comforted him: "After this battle is over, the world will be peaceful for a long time, and we will have time by then."

Ye Hongxue nodded, with a look of expectation in her beautiful eyes: "I will follow you then!"

"Then it's settled! Don't go back on your word!" Zhao Kang said excitedly.

"Never regret it."

Ye Hongxue said softly, looking at Zhao Kang who was as happy as a child, and kissed him on the cheek like a dragonfly.

"Wait for you to pick me up."

Zhao Kang clenched his fist tightly and looked at Chen Jianghe outside the door: "Old Chen!"

Chen Jianghe walked in: "National Master."

Zhao Kang: "You stay here, protect my wife, and never let her get hurt!"

Chen Jianghe was stunned for a moment, looked into Zhao Kang's eyes, and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Imperial Master, leave it to me!"

"please!"

……

Riding on a fast horse, Zhao Kang led Nangonglong from Xiaotian Pass and rushed back to Qian Kingdom.

at the same time.

The original territory of Qi State was ceded to several cities including Yun Tiecheng of Jing State.

Today, the army of Qi State came to the city. The leader of the army was Long Han, the general of Qi State.

According to Liu Guangwen's instructions, he led an army of 30, which was the entire strength of Qi State.

Looking at the vulnerable city, Long Han's eyes were stern: "Today is the time to avenge our past humiliation. Even a mere Jingguo dares to occupy our territory!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The soldiers behind them shouted loudly, and with an order, the army began to attack the city. In an instant, Yuntie City was destroyed, and no one in the Jingguo people in the city was spared.

Zhou State threatened Qian State, and Long Han led the Qi State army to attack Jing State from Yuntie City.

Xiao Feiyu led the Jin army to attack Xuzhou.

The flames of war are everywhere!
