Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2941: The war in Yingzhou escalates, luring Shu and Chu to their fate (Part )

Wang Jian's unscrupulous ridicule made Cao Pi and Toyotomi Hideyoshi blush instantly, and their faces turned ashen while they fell into deep thought.

Judging from the distance, even if traveling by water is faster than by land, if Susanoo really went to southern Kyushu, it would be impossible for him to return so quickly.

Then there is only one possibility. Wang Jian guessed their plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so Susanoo never went to Southern Kyushu. They were fooled by this old villain Wang Jian from beginning to end.

When they thought of this, Cao Pi and Toyotomi Hideyoshi couldn't help but curse in their hearts: "This damn old fox."

"General Toyotomi, are you sure that Wang Jian has not sent his troops here?" Cao Pi asked.

"There are only 20,000 defenders in the city. If Wang Jian really sends a large army here, even if he does it secretly, he will definitely leave the slightest trace. There is no way he can hide it from the ninjas under my command." Toyotomi Hideyoshi said seriously.

Hearing this, Cao Pi felt relieved. Wang Jian did not send a large army here, which proved that at least there were no ambush. The allied army could attack or defend, and was invincible.

Looking at the dark mass of enemy troops outside the city, Wang Jian couldn't help but say to himself, "That was a close call."

Cao Pi and others thought that Wang Jian had seen through their plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain from the beginning, but this was obviously not the case. After all, if Wang Jian had really known about it in advance, he would have set up an ambush in advance. Even if he could not set an ambush, he would have certainly mobilized a large army to reinforce. However, he did not do any of these, which is enough to show that he only realized it later.

Wang Jian did guess that there was a certain possibility that Enronichi was rushing to Kyushu Island to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but he could not be sure. If he made a wrong bet, the cost would be too high, so he still sent Susanoo to Kyushu Island even though he knew it might be a trick.

Although Wang Jian took a gamble this time, he was well prepared to ensure that Susanoo could return before Enronichi. However, before his arrangements could take effect, the coalition forces revealed their own flaws.

Although Cao Pi's act of arresting the Black Ice Platform spies was intended to prevent Wang Jian from knowing Yuan Luzhi's whereabouts, it undoubtedly showed that they were guilty.

If Wang Jian was only 50% sure before and thought the allied forces were trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain, he became 90% sure once this happened.

Although he was still not 100% sure, and it was even possible that the other party did it intentionally to create confusion, but Wang Jian obviously did not think that Cao Pi and Toyotomi Hideyoshi would have such a strategy, so he decisively recalled Susanoo who was still on the way.

Unfortunately, if there was enough time for Wang Jian to make further arrangements, he would definitely take this opportunity to set up an ambush and annihilate all the invading enemies under the city.

Now the advantage is definitely on the side of the coalition forces. After all, not only do they have an absolute advantage in military strength, but they can also attack or defend. The choice is theirs, and they are inherently invincible.

However, although the coalition forces had a large number of people and strong forces, Wang Jian had also been prepared. Not only did he have a strong city, but he also had peerless generals. Even if the coalition forces could take the city by force, the cost would be too high to bear.

Wang Jian was ready to fight a defensive battle. Even if he could not hold it in the end, or even lost Nan Nongwei, it would be worth it as long as he could severely weaken the coalition forces.

For the coalition forces, retreating now is the best option, but this time they have dispatched an army of 100,000. It would be hard to accept to withdraw without firing a single arrow, and it would be a huge blow to morale.

With this thought in mind, Toyotomi Hideyoshi winked at Enrochi, who immediately rode out on his horse and shouted to Susanoo on the tower: "Susanoo, you Japanese traitor, dare you come out of the city and fight me?"

Enrochi, from the game series "Warriors Orochi", is based on the Yamata-no-Orochi in Japanese mythology, but his identity is the reincarnated snake demon of Yinglong, the general of the divine world, who was eroded by the devilish miasma of the divine world.

Just from the fact that Yamata-no-Orochi is the prototype of Enronchi, and Yamata-no-Orochi is a mythical figure, while Enronchi is just a game character, it is impossible for Enronchi to compare with Yamata-no-Orochi in terms of strength or potential.

However, there is also a setting for Tono-no-chi to be the reincarnation of Yinglong. It is precisely this setting that has greatly improved his foundation and potential. In addition, he has new opportunities after his birth, which has made Tono-no-chi stronger and stronger, and he is even about to surpass Yamata no Orochi.

Susanoo's level of qi cultivation was quite good, but he was still angered by Enrochi's words "Japanese traitor". He immediately suppressed his anger and asked Wang Jian for a fight.

Wang Jian did not say much, but directly ordered the city gate to be opened. Then a horse rushed out of the city, and Susanoo jumped off the city wall, landed on the horse's back as steadily as a dragonfly touching the water, and rushed straight towards Yuan Ruzhi. The third battle between the two began.

Enryuchi is indeed a monster with an amazing physique. Although he was defeated in the previous two battles, he lasted sixty rounds and one hundred and ten rounds respectively. Although he would fall into a disadvantage after forty rounds at most, this time he fought Susanoo head-on for sixty rounds without losing the upper hand. It can be seen that he is indeed stronger than before this time when he makes a comeback.

"Susano, why is your spear becoming increasingly weaker? Do you feel guilty for surrendering to the Qin? But then again, who can willingly pledge loyalty to an enemy who destroyed their country and stole their loved one..."

Seeing that he had tried every trick but still couldn't take down Susanoo, Enrochi became anxious and wanted to use words to disturb Susanoo's mind, but Susanoo had been through hundreds of battles and had a firm mind, so how could he be disturbed by a few words?

"A childish attempt to sow discord."

After a sneer, Susanoo no longer responded. Seeing that although Susanoo didn't say anything, the strength in his hands was getting stronger and stronger, Enrochi knew that if he continued like this, he would probably lose again, so he started to talk all kinds of trash.

"Susano, you are not only a traitor, but also a coward. You have always liked your sister and have not married yet for your sister. Ying Hao has robbed your sister, but you are working for Ying Hao. Why don't you dare to take your sister back from Ying Hao..."

"Shut up, shut up, shut up."

Before Enrochi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Susanoo's roar. Everyone has their own Achilles' heel, and Susanoo's Achilles' heel is undoubtedly her sister, Tsukuyomi.

Susanoo might have some grievances against Daqin, but not against Tsukuyomi, because even if she didn't marry Yinghao, Tsukuyomi, who had been well-read and well-mannered since childhood, would never go against ethics and liked her biological brother. Moreover, the marriage with Daqin was Tsukuyomi's own decision, so he blessed Tsukuyomi to marry Yinghao.

As for Susanoo himself, without his sister, he would not fall in love with another person, so he decided to never marry and spend his whole life practicing martial arts.

This matter had long passed in Susanoo's heart, but it was not a glorious matter after all. But now Enrochi brought it up in public. In addition to making him feel ashamed and ruining his reputation, it would also damage Tsukuyomi's reputation. This was the real reason for Susanoo's rage.

In a rage, Susanoo changed his steady and cautious fighting style and instead adopted an aggressive and deadly style, hoping to kill Enrochi as soon as possible, but this instead fell into Enrochi's trap.

"Lord Toyotomi is right. There is still a big gap between my strength and Susanoo's. If I want to win, I can only use evil moves, and Tsukuyomi is Susanoo's weakness. Once the entanglement between the two siblings is brought up in public, Susanoo will be greatly shocked, and he may reveal his weakness. As long as he reveals his weakness, then my chance will come."

While resisting with difficulty, Enrochi recalled the instructions given to him by Toyotomi Hideyoshi before the battle. Now, on the surface, Susanoo was even angrier, but his fighting style was messed up, and a messy fighting style would often reveal flaws.

The two sides fought for another twenty rounds. Under Susanoo's fierce attack, Enryuchi was dwarfed and quickly fell into a disadvantage. He was completely passive and was about to be defeated, but the Qin army took the initiative to sound the battle.

Although Susano was puzzled by this, he still chose to retreat.

But how could Yuan Luzhi let Susano go? After all, this opportunity only comes once, and it won't work next time.

Enronichi had experienced two defeats and was beaten extremely badly in the third one. He was unwilling to miss the chance to win that he had waited so hard for. However, he obviously overestimated himself. His strength was not as good as Susanoo's, and there was no way he could stop Susanoo if he wanted to escape.

"Go away."

Facing the relentless Enryuchi, Susanoo fired a backhand shot, and with a full-strength attack, he unexpectedly knocked the unprepared Enryuchi off his horse's back. After landing, he slid backwards for more than ten meters before stopping the attack.

Upon seeing this, Susanoo knew that this was a rare opportunity, but it might also be a ploy by the other party to lure the enemy. Besides, the horn on the city wall was still ringing, so he snorted coldly and returned to the city without looking back.

Seeing that Susanoo didn't stay, Enrochi could only curse non-stop, trying to provoke the other party again, but this was obviously unlikely. He could only return to the main camp with an unwilling look on his face after the other party returned to the city.

As soon as Susano arrived at the city, he ran to question Wang Jian and asked why he was recalled when he had the upper hand.

Facing the still angry Susano, Wang Jian simply replied: "Raising troops in anger is a big taboo for a general."

Susanoo was struck by lightning when he heard this, and only then did he finally react. He had been through many battles, but he had fallen into the trap of his junior, Enrochi. On the surface, he had the upper hand everywhere, but the flaws had already appeared, and the outcome was unpredictable in the end.

Wang Jian saw that Susano's fighting style became chaotic after being enraged and had already revealed flaws. Susano had a very high prestige in the Qin army. If he was defeated, it would obviously affect morale, so he was recalled when he had the upper hand. After all, retreating when you have the upper hand cannot be considered a defeat, but retreating when you are at a disadvantage would be a defeat without being defeated.

On the other side, Enrochi also looked like a loser. After all, if he couldn't win this time, it would be even harder to win in the future. He could only take the initiative to apologize to Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Although Toyotomi Hideyoshi felt sorry, he did not blame Enrochi. Instead, he tried to comfort him with kind words. After all, the other party had not yet recognized him as his master. If he was scolded and ran away, it would be a waste of time.

That night, just after Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Cao Pi discussed the withdrawal of troops, Cao Pi suddenly changed the subject and asked to meet the master behind it.

"Haven't you seen it all?" Toyotomi Hideyoshi said calmly.

"Brother Toyotomi, you should know that I am not talking about Yakukokaku, but the one hiding behind him."

After hearing Cao Pi's words, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was silent for a moment and then asked, "How much do you know?"

"Not much. I only know a code name called 'Emperor Shitian'. And Enryuchi should be related to that person, right?"

  Looking at Cao Pi with a calm face, Toyotomi Hideyoshi couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart. Since even Cao Pi knew about the existence of Emperor Shitian, how could the Qin Dynasty not know about it with the intelligence capabilities of the Black Ice Platform?

Emperor Shitian has been deliberately concealing his existence and has no intention of stepping into the spotlight, but now that he has been targeted by the Black Ice Platform, it is only a matter of time before he is completely exposed.

However, for the Toyotomi family, the exposure of Indra is actually a good thing. After all, for such a monster with a huge force behind him and who knows how many cards he has hidden, if he really confronts the Qin Dynasty, the support he can give him will naturally be greater.

  Then another question arises. Since Emperor Shitian has been deliberately hiding himself and has never been exposed before, how did the Black Ice Platform and the School Affairs Office know him?

That’s right, it was Toyotomi Hideyoshi who revealed it secretly.

Emperor Shitian thought he was a chess player, hiding behind the scenes to control the situation in Yingzhou. Little did he know that he was also a chess piece from the moment he appeared. In his eyes, the chess piece Toyotomi Hideyoshi was using him, but he himself did not think so.
