Before the news of the disastrous defeat of Haiyun State's Western Route Army had spread, the news of Tunyun State's failure in crossing the canyon to attack Jinlong State spread throughout Haiyun State, Tunyun State and Xishan State.
Immediately afterwards, the Jinshan State's southern expedition army and the Jinshan State's western expedition army broke through the northern borders of Tunyun State and Xishan State respectively, went south into the territory of Tunyun State and Xishan State for hundreds of miles, and pushed the southern border of Jinshan State southward to be flush with the border of Jinlong State. The news also spread like wildfire.
Upon hearing these two pieces of news, the leader of Haiyun State immediately ordered the Eastern Route Army to suspend their advance and not enter the territory of Jinlong State.
He analyzed: "Today, Jinlong State and Jinshan State are fighting together. Tunyun State was defeated in the Canyon and lost 100,000 soldiers. Xishan State lost 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers. Our Haiyun State also lost nearly 50,000 soldiers. These The losses have been huge. It seems that the three kingdoms' joint Northern Expedition has failed, and our team can no longer attack, otherwise it is very likely that there will be no return."
Thinking of this, he agreed to spread the news about the defeat of Haiyun Bangxi Route Army.
When the news of the defeat of Haiyun State's Western Route Army reached Tunyun State and Xishan State, Tunyun State immediately sent envoys to the canyon to sue for peace to Jinlong State's southern expeditionary force, hoping that Jinlong State's southern expeditionary force would retreat and be able to maintain The original boundaries of Tunyun State and Jinlong State remain unchanged.
Crocodile, who received the Tunyun State envoy, said: "According to the instructions of our Lord of the Golden Dragon State, since our army has completely occupied the canyon and attacked here, we will use the south entrance of the canyon as the boundary and shall not retreat. Therefore, please forgive me for my inability to do anything!" "
The envoy from Haiyun State repeatedly argued and negotiated, but even when he saw that the crocodile was dying, he was unwilling to change, so he had to say goodbye and leave.
Jintu said: "It would be good for Tunyun State and our Jinlong State to have the center of the canyon as the boundary, and we can rest assured each other. Since their Tunyun State is greedy, they should be punished. Humph, I will accept your army of 100,000 this time. , I will teach you a lesson by depriving you of your right to occupy the canyon!"
"General manager, since our army has completely occupied the canyon, why don't we take the opportunity to advance south and push to the south river at one go to be level with the king and the others?" Crocodile Ming said.
"There are three reasons. First, we still want to take advantage of the peace treaty between us and Haiyun State. Although Haiyun State has also joined the attack on us this time, we do not want to break the peace treaty yet; second, the big river in the south Although it is wide, it can be defended without danger, and it is too difficult to defend, so it is not suitable as a border now; thirdly, the canyon here and the terrain south of Nam Dinh City are suitable for our defense, and the current border also meets our needs." Jintu said.
"So, the king and the others are going to withdraw?" Crocodile Death said.
"Yes, we are preparing to withdraw. However, Chief Assistant Kamishi said that he will charge some interest before withdrawing, and may also ask Haiyun Bang to agree to something." Jintu said.
"This time Nanding City fought better than us. Ning defeated more than 70,000 soldiers with 50,000 soldiers, and also killed almost 50,000 soldiers. What a great victory!" Crocodile Mound sighed.
"They took advantage of the favorable location and made good use of ambush tactics to achieve this victory." Kintoya said with a smile.
"This time we mainly relied on the Right Rat Army to play a big role, otherwise our losses would have been huge." Crocodile Ming said.
"As long as you know this and I know it, don't tell it to the outside world. This is our Jinlong State's unique weapon, it is a secret!" Jin Tu said.
Crocodile Cross nodded, but his mind still recalled the process and scenes of the canyon counterattack from time to time.
That night, after an hour of preparation, Crocodile Cross moved all the reserve soldiers outside the canyon into the canyon, and transported all the wounded and reduced combat effectiveness soldiers in the canyon to the outside of the canyon.
Then the soldiers with the strongest combat effectiveness were arranged in front and organized into ten assault brigades.
After all preparations were completed, it was midnight.
At this time, 20,000 of the most powerful soldiers immediately launched a charge under an order.
Since it was night, the soldiers of Tunyun State had just rested after two days and one night of hard work. They did not expect that the soldiers of Jinlong State would suddenly launch a counterattack at this time, so they were not prepared to resist at all.
This caused Haiyunbang's team to panic and become confused as soon as the battle began, and they were quickly defeated.
When the Tunyun State team in the canyon retreated to the outside of the canyon, the Tunyun State team outside the canyon also became confused.
It turned out that the Youshu Army launched a large-scale attack on the Tuen Yun State troops from behind the Tun Yun State troops in three directions: southeast, southeast and west.
Their attack method is to eat the Tunyun State soldiers one by one from behind and collect their inner elixirs.
Because it was night, I couldn't see the situation clearly at all. I could only hear the sound of clicking, clicking, clicking, clicking, coming from far and near quickly.
If you could see it, it would be like a flood rushing into a cornfield, and then there would be nothing left.
One hundred thousand soldiers of the Youshu Army ate from the back to the front like this. After they had eaten, not even one of the 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers of the Tunyun State was left, not even the bones were left. There were only a few here and there left on the ground. A little blood.
At that time, the soldiers of Jinlong State charged from the north to the south of the canyon. They were invincible along the way, so that the soldiers of Tunyun State had to escape to the south of the canyon like a tide.
These Tunyun State soldiers who fled southward originally thought that they would be able to get help from the outside team after escaping from the canyon and block the charge of the Jinlong State soldiers.
But when they escaped outside the canyon, they found that the outside of the canyon was even more chaotic. The soldiers of Tunyun State were running around, hiding everywhere, and the sounds of screams could be heard one after another, which was very miserable.
They knew that on the grassland, lions, foxes, and honey badgers all stood at the top of the food chain, but who could have imagined that these huge numbers of rats would become the kings.
The swarming rats soon surrounded the Tunyun State soldiers who had escaped from the canyon. One, two, three, four. In a moment, the tired, sleepy and tired soldiers who had just retreated from the canyon were all surrounded. The soldiers of Tunyun State were eaten by the rats at a speed as fast as the wind and the remaining clouds.
When the Jinlongbang soldiers who rushed out saw this scene, they immediately retreated and did not dare to charge forward.
Jintu, who rushed out with the Jinlongbang soldiers, saw this situation and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, everyone, just retreat a little back and guard the mouth of the valley. From today on, the boundary of our Jinlongbang will be based on this canyon. The southern exit of the border is the boundary, and we must be careful to prevent Tunyun State from attacking us again."
After a while, Jintu said to the soldiers of Jinlong State again: "The soldiers of Tunyun State who came here to fight with us have been completely wiped out. Don't worry anymore. Now, we will build a tall and strong gate here as our Golden Dragon. The state is defending Tunyun State’s frontline pass. Please ask Marshal Crocodile to make detailed arrangements.”
Crocodile Ming commanded each legion to start construction according to the determined plan to build the first strong pass of Jinlong State to defend Tunyun State.
It was precisely because the soldiers of Jinlong State built Xiongguan at the south entrance of the canyon that Tunyun State immediately sent envoys to sue for peace after receiving the news of the defeat of Haiyun State's West Route Army, and asked Jinlong State's troops to retreat.
In fact, the leader of Tunyun State only knew that the Jinlong State team rushed to the south entrance of the canyon and that his own team was defeated and fled. However, he did not know that the 100,000-strong Tunyun State team no longer existed.
Although they repeatedly searched and contacted, they could not find the Tunyun State team, but they only estimated that the Tunyun State team suffered heavy losses and were completely dispersed, but they did not expect that the 100,000 soldiers of the Tunyun State had become food for the rats. Eat them all!
Under the bombardment of news of the defeat of the East Route Army of Xishan State, the defeat of Tunyun State Canyon, and the defeat of Haiyun State's West Route Army, the leader of Haiyun State immediately stopped the advance of the East Route Army and did not dare to go northward to the territory of Jinlong State.
However, the leader of Xishan State still held on to illusions and failed to withdraw the Xishan State's Western Route Army from the western region of Jinshan State in time.
This has resulted in the special phenomenon that the army in the western part of Jinshan State has already set up a position on the connecting border between Jinshan State and Xishan State, while the Western Route Army in Xishan State is still advancing northwards in the western region of Jinshan State.
"Hahaha, we were worried that they would retreat early. It turned out that they not only did not retreat, but continued to move forward. How brave!" Huang Long said.
"It's also possible that Xishan State doesn't know about our team and is still dreaming of monopolizing the western region of Jinshan State," Guishan said.
"So many teams have failed, can their Western Route Army succeed? I really don't know what to think!" Jinshan said disdainfully.
"The leader of Xishan State may have some special ideas, we might as well analyze them!" Huang Long said.
"We need to think about it carefully. Xishan State, Tunyun State, and Haiyun State agreed to send 100,000 troops to the Northern Expedition, but Xishan State only sent 50,000 troops at first, and later increased it to 20,000. So far, all we know is There are more than 70,000 soldiers. In addition to the 50,000 soldiers we wiped out and the 20,000 soldiers of the West Route Army, where are the 30,000 soldiers?" Huang Ling said.
"I'm also thinking about it. These 30,000 soldiers from Xishan State have never appeared. Are they hiding like us?" Kameyama said.
"There are three questions now. First, do these 30,000 soldiers exist? Second, where are these 30,000 soldiers? Third, does the Western Route Army in Xishan State only have 20,000 soldiers? Let's think about it together. Think." Huang Long said.
"There must be these 30,000 soldiers. If not, Xishan State will not agree with Tunyun State and Haiyun State to send 100,000 troops." Jinshan said.
"I think there should be. The 30,000 soldiers of Xishan State definitely exist." Kameyama said.
"These three problems are actually one problem, and I'm afraid we can't solve it just by thinking here. Guishan, you send a message to Jinmu and tell them to move westward with the Western Expedition Army and prepare to meet up with the Western Army in the west of Xishan State. Jinshan, Let's go to the north and observe the Xishan Bangxi Route Army to see their true situation." Huang Ling said.
Guishan then sent a message to Jinmu, asking him to lead the Western Expedition Army to move westward and prepare to meet with the Western Army in the western part of Xishan State.
Jinshan spread its wings and flew quickly towards the western region of Jinshan State in the north.
Huang Ling was thinking in his heart that if the true situation of the Xishan Bangxi Route Army was not known earlier, the battle to intercept the Xishan Bangxi Route Army would probably fail miserably!
