Sun God Champion

Chapter 269 Soldiers Arrive at the Capital of Yunmeng to Stop the Frontier Army

It didn't take much effort to capture Guanshuangcheng, and it went very smoothly.

There are not many Yunmeng soldiers in the city, and some of them have been transferred to Wenjing.

"I have seen the master."

In the City Lord's Mansion, Yang An saw Hong Xuanji, and this was the first time the two met.

In Yujing, Grand Master Hong Xuanji once sent invitations, but Yang An rejected all the invitations at that time
"I have seen Hou Ye."

Hong Xuanji looked at the high-spirited champion Hou Yangan.

He had seen Yang An when he was a child. Not long after he was born, Emperor Qian used a secret method to directly unite Yang An's soul and body. He was also one of the witnesses.

After that, I never heard from Yang An again.

Until the Taoist examination, Yang An shined before the Yujing Taoist examination and the third Taoist examination, and was known by everyone.

Baptized by the Holy Word, he is known as the most likely to become the next saint.

It's a pity that Yang An didn't see anyone at the beginning and joined the army directly.

After joining the army, Yang An began to report successes one after another, shocking the entire Daqian Dynasty until he invaded the Yunmeng Empire, almost reaching Wenjing, shocking the whole world.

At this time, all countries are paying attention to the war between Yunmeng and Dagan, and they are all ready to move.

"I met Elder Yang Yu."

Hong Xuanji obviously knew Elder Yang Yu and greeted him.

"I have seen the master."

Elder Yang Yu replied.

Next to Hong Xuanji, there were Li Hanyi, Fang Xiandao Suzerain Xiao Anran, Zhengyi Dao Altar Chief Zhang Boheng, Da Luo Sect Suzerain and others.

For this attack, the Grand Master has many masters from the Daqian dynasty.

There are soul masters and martial arts masters, so there are so many talents.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, they began to get down to business.

This meeting is the siege.

"I don't know if Emperor Qian has any instructions for this battle?"

Yang An first asked.

There were not many letters from the palace, and he wasn't very sure about Emperor Qian's intentions, but Hong Xuanji was different from him, and usually communicated a lot by letters.

Therefore, Yang An asked Hong Xuanji directly.

"The meaning of the Emperor Qian is to fight!"

"Let Yunmeng surrender, cede land and pay compensation."

Hong Xuanji told Qianhuang what he meant.

Emperor Qian did not want the Yunmeng Empire to be completely destroyed, because it was not realistic, and the Dagan Dynasty did not have the energy to completely swallow the Yunmeng Empire at this time.

It has been less than a hundred years since the founding of the country, and even though it has been recuperating for the past two decades, its foundation is not as strong as that of other countries.

The foundation is something that needs time to accumulate. The longer the dynasty exists, the stronger the foundation will be.

After Yang An heard this, although he was a little disappointed, he also guessed a thing or two.

At this time, the Daqian Dynasty would definitely not choose to fight for life and death with the Yunmeng Empire.

No matter what the result is, the Dagan Dynasty at this time cannot bear it, and the country will be destroyed if it is not careful, so it still needs to wait for the opportunity.

Even if they want to annex the Yunmeng Empire, they will take it slowly and eat away bit by bit.

If you swallow it in one gulp, you will be strangled to death.

"Okay, Ben Hou understands."

Yang An nodded.

When Hong Xuanji said so, he saw the bottom line clearly.

"The Yunmeng border army is coming towards Wenjing. They probably want to fight for their lives with me. I don't know how the Grand Master will deal with it."

Yang An spoke out the information he had received, and handed over the difficult problem to Hong Xuanji.

Although he is the commander of Zhendong Army, Hong Xuanji's actual command power is higher than him, because Hong Xuanji represents Qianhuang.

This is why even though Li Hanyi is the commander of the Eastern Expedition Army, he still listens to Hong Xuanji at this time.

Yang An naturally understood this.

Although he was about to refuse to listen, Hong Xuanji had a 'Holy Mandate' on him, so he had no choice but to save face.

At this time, he has not reached the point where he is about to ignore a country.

"The grand master has discussed it with other soldiers before, and now I will tell you the result of our discussion with Lord Hou."

After hearing this, Hong Xuanji said directly.

"It will take time for the Yunmeng Border Army to reach Wenjing. According to normal estimates, it will take at least five days to arrive at Wenjing. Of course, the time can be advanced by one day, which is four days."

"As long as we capture Wenjing within four days, Yunmeng will definitely surrender."

Grand Master Hong Xuanji said sharply.

Although the Yunmeng border army set off, it still took time. Now they only need to capture Wenjing before the other side comes to support them.

After hearing this, Yang An nodded.

Just as he expected, Grand Master Hong Xuanji also chose this path.

Not bad, just a bit risky.

However, this is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, you may not be able to find such a good opportunity next time.

"Okay, let's act according to the Grand Master's plan."

Yang An agreed.

Wenjing.

Daming Palace.

"Your Majesty, the large army has gathered and is now attacking Wenjing. According to the current progress of the siege, it will be able to reach Wenjing in two days at the latest."

"There are no important places to defend the cities in front of us."

The national teacher Xia Houdian reported the situation on the front line, and the situation was not optimistic.

"Well, the remnants left by King Cangben have been cleaned up, right?"

Nalan Yihong didn't ask about the battle situation at the front line first, but asked about King Cangben.

For him, the matter of King Cangben is more important.

"Returning to Your Majesty, King Cangben has been put to death, and his forces have been basically cleaned up. There are still a few small fishes that have been dispatched to clean up. It won't be long before they can be completely cleaned up."

Xia Houdian replied.

The army gathered in Wenjing, Nalan Yihong did not defend the front line first, but cleared out King Cangben first.

Otherwise, Yang An, Hong Xuanji and others would not have progressed so fast in attacking the city.

"Okay, then gather troops and horses, stop before Wenjing, and make sure to defeat the large army."

Satisfaction flashed in Nalan Yihong's eyes.

With the internal threat gone, it's time to deal with the external threat.

Things have to be done one by one, and we cannot solve them together.

Otherwise, it is easy to be dragged to death by two things.

"How long will it take for the border army to come to support?"

The border army is Nalan Yihong's confidence. Even if some cities are captured now, as long as the border army takes action, he can regain victory.

"Four days at the earliest."

Xia Houdian had estimated it long ago and came up with the most reasonable answer.

"This battle is before Wenjing, even if the army cannot be defeated, it must be delayed."

Nalan Yihong thought about it and changed what he said before.

Because he also knew that there was a gap in the strength of the troops, and the National Division did not respond because they were not sure.

"I will be able to defend Wenjing for His Majesty until the border army supports me."

Xia Houdian made a package and said.

There is a gap in the strength of the two armies, but they have not yet reached the level of crushing. They still have the strength to fight, and with the convenience of Wenjing City Wall, they will definitely be able to defend.

"Okay, I will leave it to the national teacher for this battle."

"There are also those aristocratic families who are also asked to defend the city. These people also know how the big army treats the powerful. They can't be allowed to retreat at this time."

Nalan Yihong thought of the children of the aristocratic family who wanted to escape not long ago, and said.

There must be masters hidden among these people, and of course they cannot be allowed to escape.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the minister has already arranged that no one is allowed to escape from Wenjing. Anyone who violates the order will be beheaded!"

When Xia Houdian said the last sentence, his body was filled with murderous aura.

Apparently the knife has been used.

"Okay, as long as the national teacher can keep Wenjing, the emperor will take care of the rest."

Nalan Yihong supported it.

Compared with other people, Nalan Yihong believed in Xia Houdian's ability more at this time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I am determined to live up to your Majesty's expectations."

Xia Houdian replied.

"This is Wenjing, and this is the first time for Grand Master to come here."

Taishi Hong Xuanji rode his horse and stopped outside Wenjing City.

In two days, with the help of Yang An and the Zhendong Army, the Dagan army passed all the way, and the progress of the siege was a little faster.

After two days, I finally came to Wenjing.

There are still two days to attack the city.

The battle to attack Yunmeng will depend on this battle.

"The air mixes with the clouds in Jingkou, and the tide swallows the Haimen stone."

"The lonely sail waits for the wind to enter, and the night brings Jiangbai."

"This Wenjing is a good place."

Yang An looked at Wenjing City. The scenery here was the most prosperous and the best climate he had ever seen since entering Yunmeng.

No wonder Yunmeng chose this place as the capital of Yunmeng.

The last time he entered Wenjing, he didn't think so much, and he felt different when he came back here.

"Champion Hou's poems are not complete, are they?"

Hearing this, Hong Xuanji couldn't help but look sideways. He also has research on poetry. After all, he was once a gold medal winner and was a high school Tanhualang.

Civil and martial arts go hand in hand.

Martial Dao started and Wen Dao developed, which is why Emperor Qian was so relieved to let Hong Xuanji take control of the Eastern Expedition Army.

"Send a few words as you feel."

Yang An didn't continue talking about this topic.

"If you capture this city, no one will dare to provoke you again."

Yang An said.

To attack Wenjing, Yunmeng must admit defeat.

The people of Yunmeng dared to provoke Dagan, and Dagan turned back and captured the capital of Yunmeng.

"Now Dagan's prestige has spread all over the world, but with Wenjing, it can be icing on the cake."

Hong Xuanji added.

The Daqian Dynasty is now accomplishing an unprecedented feat, and the whole process took just over a year.

"In this battle, Yunmeng will definitely not be able to hold on."

Li Hanyi looked at Wenjing in front of him. Now that he has achieved great success, if Wenjing is added, he will definitely be knighted after returning to Yujing.

Thinking of this, Li Hanyi couldn't help but look at Yang An a few more times.

You know, Yang An was still a general of thousands of people under him before, but he didn't expect to rise so quickly, and now he has become the first young military lord in Dagan.

There was envy in his eyes, but he was not jealous, because what Yang An had done was beyond his reach.

This time, he was able to go from being attacked by Yunmeng, retreating steadily, to now breaking into the capital of Yunmeng, most of which is due to Yang An's credit.

There is no comparison at all.

"If we work together, we will naturally be able to take this city."

Hong Xuanji said confidently.

"In Wenjing City, there are so many masters."

Hong Xuanji was not in a good mood after watching Wenjing City, which had been attacked for a day and had not yet been captured.

I thought that the force would be superior and attack Wenjing from multiple directions, but I didn't expect that the Yunmeng people's ability to defend the city was not bad.

Among the Yunmeng people's army, there were not only soldiers, but also children from aristocratic families, who joined forces to defend the city.

Obviously this is the sequelae of beheading the rich and powerful before every siege.

There is no chance to escape, but to fight desperately.

Therefore, people in Wenjing City are already desperate, and both sides have suffered great losses.

"Can Champion Hou have a good solution?"

Hong Xuanji put his eyes on Yang An. Looking at this situation, even one more day would not be able to win Wenjing. When the Yunmeng border army came to support him, the Yunmeng people would have the upper hand.

This is not good news.

"No!"

Yang An shook his head upon hearing this.

Good fortune gourds are not easy to use in Wenjing. At this time, there are many masters in Wenjing, including thunder catastrophe, ghost immortals, and blood-changing martial saints.

The beheading operation is useless at all, but it may be trapped in it.

Emperor Yunmeng was kidnapped by him last time, so he must guard against him this time, so Yang An didn't want to go this way at all.

"Do you have a good idea?"

Hong Xuanji looked at the other generals.

He first asked Yang An, Yang An has always been able to create miracles, to see if Yang An has a good way at this time.

It's a pity that I didn't hear a good solution, so I can only see if other people have a solution.

Some people mentioned night attack, fire attack, etc., but unfortunately they are not applicable.

Both Yang An and Hong Xuanji thought about it, but there was no final result.

This is not what is needed at this time.

It may be useful in ordinary times, but when hundreds of thousands of troops confront each other, the effect will be negligible.

Hong Xuanji felt a headache when he heard this.

Wen Jing is a tough nut to crack.

This is also the difficulty of a normal siege, no, it should be more than that.

Most of the troops gathered in Wenjing. The troops encountered in the cities before were relatively weak, but Wenjing's troops were concentrated, and the troops were much stronger.

"Teacher, this Marquis can delay the border army's entry into Wenjing."

Yang An spoke at this moment.

If the progress of the siege can't be solved, then the only way to do it is from Yunmeng's support.

The supporting soldiers and horses also had to pass through other cities, which were relatively empty at this time.is an opportunity.

"How many troops does the champion need?"

After hearing this, Hong Xuanji's eyes lit up.

It is a good thing for them to buy more time. At this time, the pressure is not only on Dagan's side, but also on Yunmeng's side.

If there is a problem with the opponent's support, it will definitely cause a change in the opponent's mentality, and may even affect the defense of the city.

Now that the people of Yunmeng can defend so firmly, they still know that there is support behind them, so they are desperate. When there is a problem with the support, it will be strange if there is no chaos.

"Thousands are enough."

Yang An replied that if he wanted to block the support of the Yunmeng people, he would need to be quick, too many people would not be very good.

"Okay, then ask Lord Hou to send troops to prevent the Yunmeng people from supporting."

Hong Xuanji immediately made a decision.

"Isn't it a little risky to bring thousands of people to block Yunmeng's support?"

Inside the military tent, Elder Yang Yu asked.

He didn't think it was a problem to stop the Yunmeng border army, but it might be dangerous to bring too few people.

At this time, the two armies converged to attack Wenjing together.

The same advance and retreat.

"The elder knows my methods, so there won't be much danger. There are not so many masters in Wenjing in other places."

"But this time the elders can't go with them, the Zhendong Army will be handed over to the elders to command."

Yang An said with a smile.

The reason why he handed over the military power to Elder Yang Yu is also the identity of Elder Yang Yu.

When attacking Wenjing, the Zhendong Army cannot be wasted in vain.

You must not have the heart to harm others, but you must have the heart to guard against others.

Although both the Zhendong Army and the Eastern Expeditionary Army are attacking Yunmeng, there may be some small moves.

Naturally, he doesn't have to worry about it when he's around, but if he wants to stop the Yunmeng border army, he can only let someone with high status take over.

Elder Yang Yu is obviously the best choice.

He was also a member of the army before, knew Hong Xuanji and others, and was the elder of the Yang family in Qingzhou. The combination of various identities will at least not make people treat the Zhendong Army as cannon fodder.

If it wasn't for the urgent time, he would not have made this choice.

If he loses this battle, it will not be very good for him.

"Okay, the Zhendong Army will be handed over to Elder Ben."

Elder Yang Yu nodded, he also understood Yang An's concerns.

Siege battles are naturally dangerous and tricky.

Seeing this, Yang An nodded.

"Yang Heze, it's you who will assist the elder this time."

Yang An looked at Yang Heze who was at the side.

"The final general obeys orders, and this time he will definitely live up to the entrustment of Lord Hou."

Yang and Ze replied loudly.

He has been blaming himself for the incident in Chenming City last time, and this time he will definitely complete the task given by Yang An better.

"it is good."

Yang An nodded, and without delay, he walked out of the military tent and selected the thousand people who would go with him this time.

It didn't take long for the people to be complete. Among the people traveling together, there was also the Sky Eagle King.

Naturally, this master of mind and soul cannot be missed.

After everyone was ready, Yang An took the people and left.

The goal is the advancing route of the frontier army, try to set up obstacles for these people as much as possible, and hinder the speed of the other side's support.

As for the front, forget it.

Thousands of people can't fight against the opponent's hundreds of thousands of troops.

The border troops in three directions add up to hundreds of thousands, which is even more terrifying.

"How does Lord Hou plan to stop the border army?"

Sky Eagle King asked.

He was also present when Yang An was talking about this, so he was naturally curious about Yang An's actions.

"The simplest thing is to destroy the city and road, and delay the progress of the opponent's support."

"Most of these border troops are not too strong. They still have to ride horses and carry food. If there is a problem with the route ahead, they will be delayed."

"We don't need to meet them head-on, we just need to set up roadblocks along their path."

Yang An's goal is very clear, to block, the main thing is to stop the opponent's progress, and give Hong Xuanji and other large-scale troops more time to attack the city.

He has a good luck gourd in his hand, and he can lead people away quickly, much faster than these border troops.

The route of the frontier army is already in his hands.He just needs to do something on the way forward.

For example, the Guanjun army in the north had to cross the river on the way to Wenjing. He destroyed the bridge and the boat by the way, and the opponent's progress was much slower.

If you want to start directly, you have to detour, and the time to enter Wenjing will be longer.

After the opponent made a detour, there were still only a few roads to enter Wenjing in the end. On the route to enter Wenjing, the mountains on both sides were directly induced to block the entry route, and the opponent had to spend time clearing it.

There are so many ways to block the opponent's progress, don't run into them all, just choose the next one after destroying one.

Yang An has done research on these, but before that, he was not thinking about blocking the border army, but the escape route of the people in Wenjing.

After all, it was still a bit close. The Yunmeng people in Wenjing were not vegetarians, and they had some strength.

That's right, otherwise Yunmeng would have been annexed by the Dagan Dynasty and neighboring countries.

A weak country will not last long.

The blocking route was quickly determined by Yang An, but there were too many places, and the consumption of the power of the soul was a bit high, but Yang An had seven gods of original sin who practiced in the city of vain death, and the power of the soul was continuously provided, which was too much for him to consume A piece of cake.
