At this moment, a soldier suddenly came in and reported, "Your Highness, Captain Zhou Quan is back."
As soon as he heard that Zhou Quan was coming, Xiao Jamyun stood up immediately.
"Quick, let him in."
Soon Zhou Quan walked into the big tent, kneeled on the ground and said, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
When Prince Xiao Jingyun saw Zhou Quan come in alone, he felt infinitely disappointed and fell directly onto the chair with a thud.
"Zhou Quan, you came back alone."
Zhou Quan bowed again and said, "Yes, Your Highness, I am back on my own."
"Miss Liu..."
Jamel Xiao nodded slightly, "I know, I know, she can't be blamed for this, it's because my father is so awesome at what he does."
Zhou Quan reached out to untie the bamboo tube from his back and raised his hands above his head, "Your Highness, Miss Liu gave you a meeting gift."
"This is the Four Spirits and Bagua array he drew."
"He said that Prince Liu spent his whole life researching this. Although it is not an offensive formation, there is no problem in defending it. By using this method to deal with the opponent, you can maintain an invincible position."
Upon hearing this, Jamel Xiao's face lit up with joy, "Oh, bring it over quickly and let me take a look."
Zhou Quan stood up, raised his hands flat, put the bamboo tube on Xiao Jingyun's desk, and then helped open it.
There are dozens of pictures drawn in it, including the main formation diagram, each division diagram, formation changes, and various signal coordinations, all written in great detail.
After reading these pictures, Jamel Xiao was overjoyed.
"Okay, great. With this, why worry about us not being able to defend Wannian City."
Du Bai, who was standing next to him, was secretly surprised when he heard this. He quickly bowed and asked, "Your Highness, you are saying that you want to withdraw to Wannian City."
Xiao Jamyun nodded and pointed to the formation diagram on the table. He said to Du Bai, "General Du Bai, come here to see the formation of Ru Mei Hua. It makes various changes based on the four directions and eight directions."
"Our Wannian City happens to be a square city. If we use this as a basis, wouldn't it just fit in with this formation? It would be beautiful to combine enemy defense and city defense into one."
Listened to what he said. Du Bai was silent for a while, "Your Highness, the enemy is chasing so closely now, we may not have enough time to practice this formation."
At this time, Prince Liu, whose beard and hair were all white, burst into laughter.
"Your Highness, I have an idea."
After speaking, he looked at Du Bai and then at Jamel Xiao.
Jamel Xiao looked overjoyed, "Oh, old Aiqing, please tell me what you can do."
Prince Liu clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, you and General Du will lead the army to withdraw overnight. Leave me 10,000 troops and I will stay here for three days. You should be able to prepare the preliminary deployment of the formation."
Upon hearing this, Jamel Xiao waved his hands repeatedly, "It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate, that's too risky."
Old Prince Liu laughed heartily, "Your Highness, please rest assured. With the reputation of General Du, Zhu Meng will definitely tell the truth to Prince Jonah of the Great Earth Kingdom."
"I think they will not go out to challenge the camp again until they are not sure of victory. Maybe they also want to take a detour."
"If you want to bypass us and go to Wannian City, it will take you five to six hundred miles at the fastest, and it will take at least three days to walk."
"So, in three days I will abandon the camp and go to Wannian City to meet you."
After Xiao Jingyun finished listening to the old prince's words, he looked at Du Bai. Staying at this time would mean bad luck.
Of course Du Bai understood what Xiao Jingyun meant. He raised his fist at Old Prince Liu and said, "Old Prince, you should go back with His Highness the Crown Prince. I will stay here and Liang and the others will not dare to provoke again."
Old Prince Liu waved his hand, "I'm an old man, and I can't do much when I go back. You go back and organize the formations to practice quickly, and you will be familiar with commanding the three armies. It's up to you to defend the city."
After Du Bai and Xiao Jingyun looked at each other again, they came to Old Prince Liu and bowed, "Old Prince, take care, we will leave tonight."
Soon, Xiao Jingyun and Du Bai led the army and left overnight.
Xiao Jingyun was still kind and righteous enough. He gave Prince Liu 30,000 men and gave a death order to the generals leading the troops. If any accident happened, they would do their best to protect Prince Liu and retreat, and leave the rest alone.
Leaving 30,000 people behind, Jamel Xiao could only take away 120,000 people.
120,000 people marched overnight and withdrew outside Wannian City at dawn.
Xiao Jingyun and Du Bai didn't even have time to rest, so they distributed their soldiers according to thirty thousand for each city gate, and then handed over the command to Du Bai, asking them to quickly practice the soldiers and become familiar with the formation, while Xiao Jingyun came into the city to meet him. His own father, Xiao An.
Xiao An was surprised and happy when he heard that Jamel Xiao was back.
I'm happy that my son is back safely, but I'm worried that I haven't received any good news lately, so my son is back, so it's probably because something big happened.
After Xiao Jingyun came in, Xiao An couldn't wait to salute, and asked impatiently, "Jingyun, are you coming back this time because the battle ahead is unfavorable?"
Xiao Jingyun cupped his fists and said, "Father, on the contrary, Du Bai has already arrived with reinforcements. He killed two generals from the Great Tu Kingdom to stabilize the position."
Hearing this, Xiao An's face finally showed a hint of relief.
"Okay, Du Bai is worthy of being the most powerful general in our Dachang Kingdom. With him here, Zhumeng Zhumeng and his like can't do it?"
Jamel Xiao did shake his head slightly.
"Father, you can't say that!"
"Although Du Bai can still defend the cross slope now, the country has an army of 300,000..."
"We only have 150,000 troops, and the troops I brought with me in the early stage are already very tired."
"So we were able to hold the cross slope, which was a stopgap measure."
"As time goes by, if the soldiers of the Earth Kingdom take a detour and besiege Wannian City, we will be even more passive."
Hearing this, Xiao An thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "So you just withdraw and plan to stick to Wannian City?"
Xiao Jingyun bowed again, "Father, I once sent Zhou Quan to invite Liu Rumei to come out, but Rumei did not come. Instead, he drew a Four Spirits Bagua array for me."
"This formation is endlessly changing and extremely mysterious. I want to use my 150,000 troops to defend Wannian City and wait for the arrival of reinforcements from various places."
After listening to his words, Xiao An stood up slowly, walked back and forth in the study room with his hands behind his back, "I really didn't expect that Liu Rumei could still contribute to the court."
After speaking, he raised his head and took a long breath.
"I feel sorry for them."
Jamel Xiao next to him opened his mouth to speak, but saw Bai Han next to him shaking his head slightly at him.
Xiao An obviously knew Xiao Jingyun's thoughts, and he turned to look at his son.
"Jingyun, do you think I have gone too far? It's time to invite the Liu family back and restore the official position."
