When the northern barbarian tribes had been beaten to the point of being unable to support them and were about to surrender, Poland had already launched a general attack on the defense line guarded by Prince An in the west.
In fact, during this period of time, Poland has been testing the western border defense line many times, but has been unable to break through. Even if Prince An leads the army to go on an expedition, the rear has also prepared a good defense and will not let Poland break through so easily.
Just when Poland launched the general offensive, Prince An had already returned a long time ago. With him personally taking charge, Poland was immediately blocked from the defense line, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.
The advance in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty was also very smooth. Under the command of Wu Fengyan and Si Jia, it took just over a month to break through the main city where King Jin was located, and captured all the King Jin and the Wu family.
Afterwards, the original Wu family army was integrated and continued to advance towards the territory occupied by the Zheng family.
The Zheng family was still a little worse than the King of Jin, and the current situation made him feel even worse. After some symbolic resistance, the Zheng family gave up resistance and chose to surrender.
After the lost territory in the north was recovered, Wu Fengyan arranged for the manpower to take over, and immediately organized his troops and horses, and together with the Northwest Division family members, mobilized some troops to rush to the southwest.
In mid-June, when troops from all parties gathered in the southwest and successfully joined forces in the southwest, the general offensive in the southwest finally began.
How could Poland be able to withstand the advancing army?
At this time, the Polish royal family had already scolded the Northern and Southern Barbarians, and even the Gudan Kingdom.
The reason why they dared to invade the Great Zhou was entirely because the Southern Barbarians and the Northern Barbarians could contain the Western and Northwest armies of the Great Zhou. Otherwise, none of them alone would be enough to compete with the Great Zhou.
What Poland didn't expect was that the Southern Barbarians and Northern Barbarians would fall so quickly!
Poland was being beaten back and forth, and the cities it originally occupied were lost one by one. It was about to become irresistible!
At this time, Nanlin Kingdom had no intention of fighting anymore. Instead of continuing to consume and increase losses, it was better to stop the losses in time.
After all, it was only a matter of time before Poland was defeated and retreated.
As soon as the Nanlin Kingdom retreated, General Xi once again mobilized troops to support Chu Junxiu, and finally withstood the offensives of the Liu family and the Polish Kingdom.
The Battle of the Southwest was particularly brutal.
It was not until the end of August that Poland was finally defeated, leaving corpses of Polish soldiers everywhere and returning home in embarrassment.
The Liu family was besieged in the last acropolis, making a final desperate resistance.
In this battle, the former Yue Family Army, which is now the Liu Family Army, was not as incompetent as before. On the contrary, their own army's combat power was unexpectedly strong. It turned out that they had been just acting before.
It was not until the Liu family took over control that the strength of this army was truly exposed.
I'm afraid even the Yue family themselves don't know these things, because the control of the army they are proud of has already changed hands.
The acropolis only lasted for five days before it was breached. Prime Minister Liu was beheaded in front of the city gate as a warning to others.
However, during the search of the city, no trace of Liu Zimo was found for a long time. It was not until the conclusion reached after repeated interrogations that surprised everyone.
Liu Zimo is no longer in the Acropolis!
Liu Zimo had already left the Acropolis before it was besieged!
But if Liu Zimo was not in the Acropolis, where would he be?
In the city lord's mansion, Wu Zechen, Wu Fengyan, Zuo Xiyan and others gathered together. After learning the news, they all frowned and thought deeply.
Liu Zimo left midway, where did he go? Is there any other conspiracy or purpose?
After thinking for a long time, Wu Zechen's expression suddenly changed and he rushed out without looking back, leaving only the words "You guys clean up" floating in the air.
Wu Zechen's reaction shocked everyone else. They didn't know what he had discovered, but he actually showed such a panicked look, which was something no one had ever seen before.
"What happened to him?" Wu Fengyan frowned and was confused. Seeing that others were also confused like him, he immediately ordered his guards to follow him and take a look.
Not long after the result, the guard came back to report.
"Prince An led a group of personal guards out of the city!"
Out of town?
Wu Fengyan quickly asked: "In which direction did you go?"
"Looking at the direction, we should be heading back to the capital!"
"Back to the capital?" Wu Fengyan was stunned, "Weren't we just discussing the whereabouts of Liu Zimo? Why did he suddenly return to the capital?"
"Did Liu Zimo return to the capital? That's not right. If he returns to the capital at this time, isn't he throwing himself into a trap?" Chu Junxiu was also puzzled.
After fighting and stationed in the southwest for so long, Chu Junxiu's face has become more and more vicissitudes of life, and his androgynous appearance has become more masculine, but more handsome.
"Liu Zimo...Jingcheng..."
Zuo Xiyan frowned in thought, and his originally elegant face became more calm and serious after months of fighting.
Wu Fengyan heard his murmur and asked, "What did Mr. Zuo think of?"
Zuo Xiyan subconsciously raised his head to look at Wu Fengyan. Suddenly his eyes froze and his face suddenly became stiff!
"No! It's Atong!"
The only thing that can make Prince An look so anxious and frightened is Luo Tong's safety!
"What?! Sister? Does Liu Zimo's trip to the capital have something to do with my sister? What's going on?!" When Luo Tong was involved, Wu Fengyan couldn't stay calm anymore!
"Liu Zimo...he has an obsession with Atong!" Zuo Xiyan said with some difficulty. Wasn't he not like this before?
He knew this, and so did Wu Zechen.
He originally thought that Liu Zimo's feelings for Atong had dissipated when the Liu family defected to the southwest, but now it seems that this may not be the case.
"I will also go back to the capital to have a look!" Zuo Xiyan turned around and saluted Wu Fengyan without saying a word, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for returning to the capital first, and then come to the southwest."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and left, even running all the way, very fast, and disappeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
Even if Wu Fengyan wants to blame him, he admits it, not to mention he believes that given the importance Wu Fengyan attaches to Luo Tong's sister, it is impossible for him to blame himself...
Sure enough, when he heard what Zuo Xiyan said, Wu Fengyan couldn't sit still, turned around and planned to run away, without caring about the emperor's manners.
To him, even the throne is not as important as his sister!
Seeing that Wu Fengyan was about to run away, Chu Junxiu immediately wanted to follow him, but as soon as he caught up to Wu Fengyan, he was blocked by Wu Fengyan with a backhand.
"There is no need to follow General Chu. I will return to the capital first, and General Chu will stay in the southwest to clean up the rest, wipe out the remnants, and reorganize the southwest. After that, I will send people to cooperate with you."
