Royal study room.
Zhu Tianzheng and Yan Zhenlin were discussing important matters in the DPRK.
Both of them looked a little distracted.
Look southwest from time to time.
The southwest war has begun. Although both of them are full of confidence in this battle, the outcome must still be unknown until the outcome is known.
It is inevitable that there will be some concerns.
At this time, a Feilong guard came in a hurry, "Your Majesty, urgent report from the southwest."
"Send it up!"
An eager look flashed in Zhu Tianzheng's eyes, but he remained calm on the surface.
Eunuch Cao quickly took the urgent report from Fei Longwei and presented it.
Zhu Tianzheng opened it and took a look, and laughed heartily the next moment, "Hahaha!! Good! What a Zhao Qianjun, he really did not disappoint me."
Yan Zhenlin was also overjoyed when he saw this, "Your Majesty, but General Zhao won?"
"good!"
Zhu Tianzheng said excitedly, "Yan Aiqing, you should also take a look."
Yan Zhenlin received the emergency report. It turned out that Zhao Qianjun, the Southwest Governor and the Admiral of Guinan were attacking the Wanxiang Kingdom's army in a three-pronged attack. Because Zhao Qianjun led the fewest soldiers, the Wanxiang Kingdom did not pay enough attention. In the end, it suffered heavy losses and thousands of casualties.
"Hahaha!! The ambition of these wolves in Wanxiang Kingdom has underestimated Zhao Qianjun and Zhuge Liannu. Let's see if they dare to come to my country to show off their power."
Zhu Tianzheng was extremely excited and said: "Immediately publish the battle report so that my subjects can celebrate together when I leave the court."
"yes!"
A eunuch took the order and left.
Yan Zhenlin was also full of joy, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Wanxiang Kingdom will definitely not dare to advance rashly in this battle."
Zhu Tianzheng laughed and said: "That's right! The Wanxiang Kingdom just wants to take advantage of the situation. Now that I have seen the power of Zhuge Liannu, I don't dare to measure them."
"Even if we advance rashly, there is nothing to fear with Zhao Qianjun and the three-pronged army."
He is full of confidence.
Zhuge Liannu gave him strong self-confidence, and now facts have proved this.
Zhao Qian's army was victorious and he killed thousands of enemies with Zhuge Liannu. How could he not be happy? His eyes became more and more eager, longing for Nanyi Pass.
If this side wins again, then...
Just when he was extremely excited, another Feilong Guard came in a hurry, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Nanyi Pass."
"explain!"
Zhu Tianzheng's eyes were full of expectation.
The Feilong guard was stunned, and then said: "Thousands of people were killed in Nanyi Pass..."
What?
Zhu Tianzheng's face fell instantly, with an incredible look on his face, as if he thought he had heard wrongly.
Yan Zhenlin's face darkened as well.
Eunuch Cao quickly took the secret letter from the Feilong Guard and presented it.
Zhu Tianzheng opened it and took a look, and his whole face instantly turned livid, "Asshole! What does Kong Qiu do for food? He rushes after him without any confidence, he is just a loser..."
He was furious and threw the secret letter out of his hand.
Yan Zhenlin quickly picked it up and took a look, his face changed slightly, but he said: "Your Majesty, calm down, the front line is eager to win, but fortunately Nanyi Pass was not lost, and Dali also suffered many casualties. For the first time The confrontation is considered to be evenly divided and does not affect the overall situation."
Zhu Tianzheng vented his anger and felt a little better after hearing this.
But his face was still gloomy.
Because this failure also made him see the limitations of Zhuge Liannu. In the jungle battle, it was still difficult to compete with the tiger and wolf army.
The key is that there are many jungles in the southwest. If you want to win this battle, I'm afraid...
Yan Zhenlin was similar, and the two looked at each other.
They all seemed to realize that they had been too optimistic about the war in the southwest.
They couldn't help but worry about how this battle would turn out.
In addition to the two of them, naturally there were other people who also received the news. They had different reactions, some were worried and some were happy.
Of course, for the front line, this is all in the past.
They had no interest in paying any attention.
What they have to face is now.
Nanyi Pass.
The Dali army still did not attack, but they had no intention of retreating.
Yang Shaojie's face was gloomy. He became more and more convinced that his nephew's whereabouts had been exposed. King Zhenbei, with his tiger and wolf army, must have rushed to deal with his nephew.
"Your Highness, Mr. Lin is in critical condition. I request to take the initiative."
Yang Shaojie led a group of chieftain generals to find Zhu Tong.
These chieftains were extremely concerned about Lin Bai's safety.
However, Zhu Tong had just suffered a loss, so it was obviously impossible for him to take the initiative at this time.
"General Yang, we have not received a signal from Master Lin. Moreover, it is still unknown whether the Tiger and Wolf Army has really retreated. Maybe this is their trap?"
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of snake bites for ten years.
Of course, this is not unreasonable. Yang Shaojie himself is not convinced.
Tian Fang also said: "General Yang, Mr. Lin is very resourceful and will be fine. If we act rashly, we might disrupt his plan."
"Based on the time, they should be arriving soon. Maybe there will be news soon."
In the eyes of everyone, Lin Bai and his three thousand troops should be rushing quickly at this moment, striving to capture the Tianlang Pass as soon as possible. Only in this way will they not be passive and can easily resolve this crisis.
Duan Zhenglong thinks so too.
They did not hesitate to borrow a road from the Meihe River Triangle, no doubt in order to cut off the retreat of Dali's army.
In this way, as long as you hold on to these two checkpoints and cannot get supplies, your side will run out of ammunition and food in a few days, so there is no need to fight at all.
Therefore, at this moment, he rushed to Tianlang Pass and attacked all the way.
The three armies of tigers and wolves rolled up dust all over the sky.
"Your Majesty, the Hufeng Gorge is ahead. Will our march speed slow down? The mountain road from the Meihe River Triangle is rugged. If they haven't arrived before we arrive, most of the Lichao army will be too scared to come out."
"Hahaha! Not bad!"
One of the soldiers laughed loudly.
Duan Zhenglong paused, "We'll go through Hufeng Gorge first."
Hufeng Gorge is the entrance to the high mountains in the southwest. The road is narrow and there are steep peaks on both sides. After exiting Hufeng Gorge, there is a relatively broad plain. Not far beyond it is Tianlang Pass.
At this moment, three thousand tiger and wolf troops have arrived at the exit of the canyon, like tigers descending the mountain.
The rumble of footsteps was like muffled thunder.
wrong!
Duan Zhenglong's pupils shrank, and an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly rose. He looked up at the top of the canyon and saw huge rocks rolling down.
"Not good! The mountain collapsed."
Some soldiers shouted.
At this moment, they still didn't realize that there might be an ambush around them.
In their view, landslides may be more likely.
But Duan Zhenglong reacted instantly and said urgently: "Go back quickly!"
Unfortunately, huge boulders rolled down, and countless trees were pushed down. Rockets carrying tung oil ignited the trees, igniting raging flames and completely blocking the retreat of the three thousand tiger and wolf troops.
Various miserable howls were heard, countless boulders rolled down, and sharp arrows rained down.
