Chapter 471 The era of Ziyi is over
The soldiers are very fast, let alone a surprise attack. From the moment Tiwu led the eight thousand barbarians into the satellite city, he had no intention of hiding his whereabouts and advanced at high speed. After entering Xiongguan City, he even frantically did things. In this way, this news naturally cannot be hidden...
Just half a day has passed!
Xiongguan City fell, and the barbarians slaughtered the city, tragic. The city was in full swing, and the smoke was rolling... All kinds of shocking news quickly radiated around!
The first person to receive the news was the Barbarian coach, An Shuai. This was inevitable. Although he retreated, he was still closest to Xiongguan City, not to mention that he had always paid attention to this direction, so he naturally knew what Tiwu did in Xiongguan City at the first time.
After looking at the direction of Xiongguan City, An Shuai's expression was a bit strange and complicated, regretful, excited, regretful, excited... all kinds of emotions were mixed, and he was stunned for a moment.
This is not a pity that he failed to replace it. Although from the whole matter, the result was that he had made more than ten years of hard work and Natiwu was just a villain who speculated and stole the fruit. What is regrettable is that the fruit was too big and too big... Zi Yi and Zi Chen Legion suppressed the Northern Desert for decades, making the tribe barbarians unable to raise their heads at all. When this news came out, the barbarians had the back of the 100,000 mountains, and the bone-eroding needle in their hearts was undoubtedly eliminated. It can be said that Tiwu stepped on Zi Yi and took up the throne in one fell swoop. His reputation was enough to shake the continent, change the color, and leave a rich and colorful stroke in history!
But no matter what, An Shuai was worried about this fruit and consciously gave it up. With his mind and mind, he would not regret it if he beats his chest and stamps his feet. Besides, he is now leading his army to ambush. If he can successfully kill Zi Yi and achieve his contribution in one battle, such glory is not less than the former.
He just disagreed with Tiwu's approach to massacre, and felt a little regretful about the destruction of the Xiongguan City that Ziyi had been operating for decades. This idea is not ruthless. With the bad relationship between the Northern Wilderness and Bran, no matter how many Brans die, he will not raise his eyebrows. However, the veterans on the battlefield of the hundred battles have a broader horizon and farther away thoughts. If they can scoop down the damage to the Xiongguan City, it will undoubtedly be more beneficial as an important strategic springboard for attacking Bran's hinterland.
Of course, these disapproval and regret are all faint and not strong, because An Shuai can understand Tiwu's move! Tiwu is not him after all, and his control over his subordinates has not reached the level of completely banning. Zi Yi and Zi Chen's army are under too much pressure on the Northern Wilderness. Now that there is a chance to kill each other's nest and act wildly, the barbarian warriors will naturally not let go. With such emotions, no matter whether the city massacre is Tiwu's subjective wish, it is imperative!
"It was finally ruined..." He sighed inexplicably. This barbarian veteran who had observed Xiongguan City hundreds of times on the topographic map or on the spot had a dry voice, "It belongs to Zi Yi's frontline era, it has passed..."
…………
Cangyan Legion, headquarters.
The news arrived here, and it was almost dusk. It was the scout who waved his whip and ran a few war horses to death before he arrived here in such a short time. And that's it. After yelling for a few words, the dedicated scout fainted on the spot.
"Xiongguan City fell, and the barbarians slaughtered the city..."
The room suddenly fell into silence. The old commander Cang Yan holding a tea cup, the officers at all levels of the army who were discussing fiercely, and so on, freezing in place like a sculpture, mum-mu looked at the scout who had already fallen to the ground. His eyes were vaguely as if he was looking at a roadside madman...
Xiongguan City is falling... Are you teasing me?
Although the three legions kept making small moves in secret, no one was convinced. But in fact, Cang Yan and the people of the Thunder Legion knew that although the Zichen Legion had no record of being able to make a move in recent years, the military god Ziyi had almost never left Xiongguan City, but this did not represent that the Zichen Legion, which is known as the strongest combat power among all Bran's legions, was no longer familiar with the war. Originally, the barbarians did not attack the Zichen Defence Zone at all. How would you make a contribution?
And in fact, although it was only a short day, the report of flying to the headquarters like snowflakes, saying that the various armies of the Zichen Legion successfully blocked the situation of the barbarians who were attacking wildly on the periphery of the Cangyan Soldiers' wall undoubtedly also shows that this strongest name is not untrue!
Knock... Put down the teacup, the old coach Cang Yan looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Send an order, send a team to investigate the situation in the direction of Zichen Defense Zone. If you encounter a scout coming from there, bring it to me immediately!"
"Uh...yes!" An officer quickly pushed the door out.
The officers in the room slowly came to their senses, looked at each other, their faces were a little disbelief and a little uneasy.
To be honest, they have serious doubts about the authenticity of this news. Will Xiongguan City, which has never seen war in more than 20 years, fall? This really tests their nerve acceptance ability! But rationally, even if this coma scout takes advantage of the courage of an ambitious leopard, he will not dare to convey such a ridiculous false news...
Thinking of this, several senior officers stepped forward to help the coma scout on the ground, shook it for a few times but failed to see any effect. They brought tea from behind and sprayed it directly on the scout's face, but they still didn't wake up.
Seeing this, the officers couldn't help but feel sank. They were not only academics who could only talk about war on paper, but practical generals who could lead troops to fight with their horses and swords. The scout did not wake up under various methods, which only means that his physical and mental power had been completely exhausted. In a way, the news that the scout had tried his best to convey should not be a joke.
The officer who was already cautious in nature began to accept this fact and subconsciously considered the direct impact of the matter. But his thoughts simply turned a few times, his scalp was already numb, and the cold air on his back rushed upwards, and his body felt like he fell into an ice cellar!
The strategic position of Xiongguan City is really sensitive. After breaking through here, there is a flat terrain behind, with almost no danger to defend. As long as the barbarians scoop this as a strategic springboard, they keep gathering people, and they can enter the hinterland of the north and attack wantonly. They can retreat and defend the city, which is as solid as a rock, and are basically invincible.
When the Zichen Legion had not entered Xiongguan City before, the city was indeed destroyed many times. Every time, Bran spent a huge price, and some even sacrificed other fronts, causing heavy injuries to regain it. In this battle, the Northern Wilderness launched a crazy attack with almost all the tribe forces. It is hard to say whether this side can be captured again...
And even if we don’t consider it, we only consider the present. If the news of the fall of Xiongguan City is true, how will Zichen’s army, which is reinforced in their defense zone, respond? Will Ziyi transfer various armies to rescue back to Xiongguan City?
If Zi Yi really does this, then the Cangyan Legion will undoubtedly become the biggest victim. You must know that the tens of thousands of barbarians they forced to circle before have not digested it. Once the Zi Chen Legion army evacuated, their soldiers' defense line will be directly attacked by reinforcements. Needless to say, the result is definitely a colander. By that time, the Cangyan defense zone was completely lost and was almost in front of us...
With these terrifying thoughts in this way, the headquarters gate was pushed open again, and the officer who had just left walked into the house with a few dusty scouts.
Of course, there would not be only one scout who discovered the major news about the fall of Xiongguan City. The difference was just a matter of time and evening. The officer obviously encountered these three scouts who rushed over quickly.
He lowered his head and avoided the many burning gazes around him. The officer said in a deep tone: "Marson, Xiongguan City is indeed... it has indeed fallen..."
Wow...
Although I had received the news before and saw the officer's expression of a loss when he came in just now, I had expected it, but after the news was truly confirmed, various screams and gasps involuntarily sounded in the room. At this moment,
Bang! The sound of slapping the table like a thunderous thunder suddenly sounded, the tabletop trembled, the teacup fell to the ground, and another sharp and broken sound was made.
The room suddenly became quiet, "Why are you panic? The sky can't fall!" He slowly withdrew his palm, and the old coach Cang Yan looked solemn and his power was revealed. Then he looked around and took a deep breath, "Where is Zi Yi's current location?"
"Okay, it should be in the middle of Zichen's army."
"should?"
The senior officer who replied, looked straight into the old marshal's angry eyes and spread his hands: "Apart from having been venturing with us and asking about the situation of the war, Zi Yi did not convey any news. Moreover, according to the information we received, the soldiers only saw the other four Zi Chen troops, and had never seen Zi Yi at all."
"Huh?" The old commander Cang Yan was surprised and suspicious when he heard this, then frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Send the order and send someone to pass this news to Zichen's various armies."
"Marson..." Several officers exclaimed at the same time when they heard this, and then looked at each other, their lips squirming, and they wanted to speak but stopped.
"Dispel your stupid thoughts!" As if he knew what the few people were thinking, the old Marshal Cangyan's face suddenly became gloomy, "They are General Bran, and they know what they should do!"
When several officers heard this, they lowered their heads and said silently. Obviously, because they were worried that several troops of the Zichen Legion would suddenly evacuate and bring a catastrophe to this side, they had the idea of blocking the news just now.
After eased a little, a few gleams flashed in the old marshal's eyes and pondered: "Also, try to block this news from the outside. Well, at least don't let it spread in our defense zone."
"Uh..." All the officers were shocked when they heard this. It was naturally impossible to completely blockade the city of Xiongguan City with such a big thing. But the marshal deliberately did these thankless things. Is there a turning point in this matter?
It's impossible! If Zi Yi really had the ability to turn the tables in one fell swoop, or if it was just a strategy, how could he let Xiongguan Chongcheng lose his opponent? He let thousands of civilians in the city be buried under the butcher's knife of the barbarians...
