Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 350 Lead the snake out of the hole
"My lord, the spies sent to the border of Huanzhou came to report. Now the troops from various places in Huanzhou are rushing to Cangyuan City continuously, and there is no movement of sending troops."

In Fucheng, the capital of Lianhuan, a messenger soldier in the government office reported to several adults.

"Very well, the army of the King of Chu should still be gathering now, we have enough time!"

"You must keep an eye on the situation in Cangyuan City at all times, and report immediately if there is any movement."

He Qingfeng, the magistrate of Lianhuan Prefecture, showed joy, and continued to order:

"Immediately notify the guards of the remaining seven counties. Each county will send out [-] troops. At least three masters will rush to Linhuan County City [-] miles away to meet up overnight. Follow my army back to Linhuan County City tomorrow morning to destroy the King of Chu." Vanguard Army!"

"Yes!"

After the messenger took the order, he quickly went down to send the message.

"My lord, how many troops are we going to send?"

A young general in armor in the government office asked, he is the Lieutenant of Lianhuan Mansion, He Shibin.

"[-] soldiers, only [-] guards are left to guard." He Qingfeng glanced at He Shibin and said, "Now go and inform the families in the capital that our army will set off in an hour, and send as many soldiers as they can. Those who can’t be dispatched will continue to dispatch tomorrow!”

"After we eliminate the vanguard army in Linhuan County, we need to gather all our troops to Linhuan City to resist the arrival of King Chu's army in Linhuan City. After three days, the venerables of other big forces will come to Huan City first. We The owner will also arrive."

He Shibin's eyes lit up when he heard He Qingfeng's words, and he said hastily, "Father, will the commander of the Lianhuan Mansion's army be handed over to me this time?"

"There is no distinction between father and son in the government office. Call me an adult, and you will never change after repeated admonition!" He Qingfeng looked at He Shibin angrily.

"Yes, my lord, I forgot again." He Shibin smiled embarrassedly, "Then I..."

He Qingfeng saw He Shibin's appearance, his expression changed, and he said coldly:
"You have the highest position in the entire Lianhuan Mansion Army. If I don't send you, who will I send?"

"Yes, my lord, I will go down and prepare immediately, and I guarantee that the army will be ready in an hour!"

He Shibin immediately showed joy, and immediately went down to prepare after clasping his fists and saluting.

"Haha, my nephew must seize this opportunity this time. If the landlord takes a fancy to it, he will soar into the sky when the battle is about to start!"

There are still a few people in the government office, all of whom are warriors wearing Fengxuelou costumes. The one who spoke was the elder guarding Lianhuandu Fucheng, Zheng Zhaoyan, an elder at the peak of the Tianwu Realm. He looked at He Qingfeng and said with a smile.

He and He Qingfeng have known each other for many years, and they can be regarded as friends in the past.

However, He Qingfeng showed a sense of worry, looked at Zheng Zhaoyan with a wry smile and said, "Brother Zheng, can you tell me the truth? According to reports from various cities in Linhuan County, the King of Chu sent about [-] troops, and the vanguard general is well-known. Zhong Limei, the army under his command is even more elite division, "

"Although we may be able to draw 20 troops, these are a group of mobs. If we fight head-on with them, we are afraid that we will be defeated in one battle. How can we defeat Zhong Limei?"

As the magistrate of Lianhuan Mansion, He Qingfeng naturally knew the situation of the guards in each county. Although there were [-] guards guarding each county, the [-] guards were very dry, not to mention the old, weak, sick, and disabled. The family is in control, not very capable, but has a strong ability to raise money. The soldiers below pretend to be powerful and let them bully the people.

The guards of ordinary cities are even more rotten from top to bottom.

Zheng Zhaoyan smiled and said: "Brother He, don't worry, you will know when you get to Linhuan County, and their troops are scattered in various cities. Linhuan County has only 20 troops guarding it. With the leader general, [-] troops swarmed up, and the number of employees could pile them up to death."

"Then how do we deal with Zhong Limei?" He Qingfeng's eyes brightened, and he naturally knew the benefits of dealing with the general, so he quickly reminded:

"The Patriarch of the Zhou family, Zhong Limei, who killed the Dharma Master in the first battle in Huanzhou, even though he is a general at the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm, he still has the combat power of the Dharma Master."

"Hehe, Brother He, don't worry. Zhong Limei had a lot of luck in assassinating Patriarch Zhou with a single shot, and he even borrowed the increase from the army. He only has [-] troops now, so he can increase the increase. Where will the increase go?" Zheng Zhaoyan didn't take it seriously, his tone was full of disdain.

Seeing Zheng Zhaoyan's full confidence, He Qingfeng probably thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face.

This is a great achievement for nothing.

........................

Cangyuan City is the city on the border of Huanzhou, seventy miles out of the city is the territory of Lianzhou.

At this moment, one army after another arrived in Cangyuan City from all over Huanzhou.

"General Meng, now that Cangyuan City has gathered 40 troops, can we enter Lianzhou now?"

On the city wall, Xu Chu, who was wearing armor and a burly body, couldn't wait to ask Meng Tian next to him, his eyes showing fierce fighting intent.

If you don't fight any more, your body will be rusted.

The tall and straight Meng Tian, ​​dressed in dark golden scale armor, revealed his calmness between his bushy brows, his eyes were staring at the direction of Lianzhou, his cloak was fluttering with the wind behind him, facing Xu Chu's question, without turning his head, he said lightly:

"When will General Ma Chao and General Guan Sheng arrive?"

"Report to General, General Ma Chao and General Guan Sheng will arrive tomorrow." Chen Wei who was beside him said respectfully.

"tomorrow?"

Meng Tian's bright eyes turned slightly, and he nodded, "Is there any change in Lianhuan's capital city?"

"This..., the people in the trap haven't heard anything yet!" Chen Wei lowered his head and said.

At this moment, a figure as fast as a ghost moved up to the city wall, knelt on the ground and respectfully said to Meng Tian:
"Report to General Meng that the city of Lianhuan Capital issued an order to the other five counties two hours ago, and each sent 20 guard soldiers to Linhuan County City overnight to attack Linhuan County City tomorrow. According to the investigation of the situation, this time sending troops to the counties and the various forces of the county government, the number of troops sent by the Lianhuan Mansion may reach [-]."

Meng Tian's eyes did not fluctuate, and he said flatly: "Well, inform General Zhong Limei to continue as planned!"

Xu Chu stared: "They are moving so fast, General Meng, why don't we set off early!"

"No, there are already many eyes staring at this place now, if we move, the people in Lianhuan Mansion will know that if the army they summoned retreats again, we will be in a lot of trouble." Meng Tian said with an unchanged expression.

"Uh……"

When Xu Chu heard Meng Tian's words, he could understand the words, but he couldn't understand them together.

Isn't it a good thing that the army has retreated?
Meng Tian looked at the way Xu Chu scratched the back of his head naively, his sharp eyes softened a little, and he explained:
"There are eight counties in Lianhuan Mansion. After we take Linhuan County, Lianhuan Mansion will definitely respond. If our army comes to Linhuan County, the Lianzhou Alliance will be more urgent, and their support will be faster. And Lianhuan Mansion will switch from offense to defense."

"Oh...that's it." Xu Chu Hanhan nodded, expressing his understanding.

Meng Tian watched Xu Chu scratching the back of his head faster, turned his eyes to the distance, and continued:

"The seven counties of Lianhuan Mansion are scattered. If our army attacks, it is easy to waste unnecessary time in their defensive state. Moreover, as one of the two counties controlled by Fengxuelou, there may be hidden means inside, which is easy to give We add trouble, so our best way is to force out the strength of Lianhuan Mansion, let Fengxuelou take the initiative to reveal its hidden strength, and then deal with them in a single battle, when the time comes, the army will start again, drive straight in, and take Lianhuan faster government."

"Oh! That's it, I understand!" Xu Chu nodded quickly, "Then when can we set off?"

"After Zhong Limei has dealt with them tomorrow, you can go to Lianhuan Mansion with Ma Chao and Guan Sheng."

"okay!"

..........................................

On the second day, the sky was dim, and fifty miles away from Linhuan County, the originally very quiet mountain forest was extremely lively today. All kinds of troops with different colors of armor gathered here, and many generals with bright armor were chatting with each other. Greetings, while those ordinary soldiers were exhausted physically and mentally, leaning on the trees, lying on the ground and taking the time to rest.

They didn't know what was going on at all, they just knew they had to rush to Linhuan County under the scorching sun since noon yesterday, and they couldn't stop for a moment.

At the very center, Zheng Zhaoyan, He Shibin, the lieutenant of the six counties, some family leaders and other high-level people gathered.

"Elder Zheng, we have all arrived on time now, so you can tell us how to fight."

A middle-aged man exuding the aura of a peak master state said, he is a member of the Liu family, the top family in Lianhuan Mansion, Liu He.

"Well, that's right, we all obey Elder Zheng's orders."

Representatives of other families who followed also spoke one after another.

Zheng Zhaoyan swept across the crowd, smiled and said:
"Everyone should know the purpose of our arrival. We should not be too late. After resting for a quarter of an hour, we are ready to set off and attack Linhuan County City."

"As for how to attack, this time the commander of our army is He Shibin, General He, let him explain it to us."

He Shibin next to Zheng Zhaoyan kept his body straight and straightened his face. When everyone looked at him, his heart was surging. He knew that his first battle to become famous was today.

And the opposing general is still the well-known Zhong Limei!

He Shibin cleared his throat and said to everyone: "Everyone, the king of Chu has planned for Linhuan County for a long time. The sudden attack last night made it impossible for us to guard against it, causing Linhuan County to lose its head overnight. This time we are bound to deal with King Chu's vanguard army , wipe them all out, since they can take Linhuan County overnight, we can also take Linhuan County back in one day."

"But the enemy general is Zhong Limei, the top general under King Chu, how can we defeat him?" Liu He asked.

Everyone else nodded.

"Haha, Elder Zheng and I have already discussed this, so we will deal with Zhong Limei first when we arrive in Linhuan County!" He Shibin smiled confidently.

"How to solve it?" Qingyu County Captain Yang asked.

"That's the fighting general!"

"Fighter?"

Seeing He Shibin's complacent expression, everyone was stunned.

Fighting with Zhong Limei?

Crazy!
Many people had this idea in their hearts, but seeing the calm expression of Zheng Zhaoyan next to him, everyone swallowed back the words they were about to question.

He Shibin enjoyed everyone's astonishment very much, and said excitedly: "That's right, Zhong Limei is a well-known general under King Chu's command. He is strong and confident. If we choose a general, he will definitely accept it!"

"But, who do we send to fight the general?" A general asked, and his eyes unconsciously looked at Zheng Zhaoyan.

Not only him, almost everyone's eyes were on Zheng Zhaoyan, because he was the only one who was at the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm.

But can Elder Zheng really defeat Zhong Limei?
At this moment, some people felt withdrawn, not because they didn't believe in Elder Zheng, but because they didn't know that Zhong Limei was a top general who could kill Dharma Zun.

"The old man doesn't take action, there is someone else who takes action against Zhong Limei." Zheng Zhaoyan smiled and looked at He Shibin with a gleam of admiration.

He originally planned to let Venerable Lian go directly to Linhuan County to attack Zhong Limei and kill him directly.

However, when confessing to He Shibin, He Shibin thought of a good way to prevent Venerable Lian from going to Linhuan County for a surprise attack. After all, Venerable Lian went to Linhuan County alone in case Zhong Limei escaped accidentally Woolen cloth.

So He Shibin's solution is to wait for them to arrive at Linhuan County City, send a strong man at the peak of Tianwu Realm to lead Zhong Limei out of the city to fight, and then let Venerable Lian make a sneak attack, so that nothing will go wrong!
Hearing Elder Zheng's words, everyone was puzzled again, if it's not Elder Zheng, who is it?

"It's another elder at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Martial Realm in our Fengxue Building, Elder Huang!"

He Shibin waved and pointed in another direction, his face excited, and he acted as an invitation.

Everyone looked in his direction, only to see seven imposing warriors walking out of the crowd in Fengxue Building.

The eyes of Liu He, Yang Xiaowei and other master-level powerhouses suddenly popped up, because they sensed that the aura emanating from these seven people was very powerful!
Could it be that they are all Tianwu Realm powerhouses!
Seeing everyone's expressions, Zheng Zhaoyan smiled and said:
"Now, we don't hide it from you. In fact, apart from sending the old man and Elder Ran to Lianhuandu Fucheng and Linhuan County, we also have a Tianwu Realm expert hidden in other counties."

Everyone was shocked, and then they were overjoyed and excited.

So there are eight Heavenly Martial Realm powerhouses in their army, so what is Zhong Limei doing?
"Greetings to Elder Huang, all elders!"

As the seven elders of Fengxuelou Huang walked over, everyone saluted one after another.

Among them, the person in the middle is the most powerful, and he is the Elder Huang mentioned by He Shibin.

"Well, don't worry, Zhong Limei will be handed over to me!"

Elder Huang, with frost on his temples, stood with his hands behind his back, showing a very confident expression to everyone.

"With Elder Huang here, we can rest assured!"

"That's right, no matter how strong Zhong Limei is, how can he be the opponent of Elder Huang!"

Everyone praised and said, they don't know if Elder Huang can do it, but they already have eight Heavenly Martial Realm powerhouses on their side, so they will definitely be able to do it!
They are very confident at the moment.

"Elder Zheng, General He, two Fengxuelou disciples have escaped from Linhuan County."

While everyone was flattering, a small commander led two ragged, scarred disciples from the Fengxue Building quickly walked from the middle of the team.

When the two disciples of Fengxuelou who were exhausted all over their bodies saw Elder Zheng and the elders of Fengxuelou, their expressions were extremely excited.

"Elder Zheng, Elder Zheng, you must avenge us. Our disciples in Linhuan County died so badly. Only the two of us escaped."

"Pan Yunqiu, Wang Hongxing, you two escaped?"

When Zheng Zhaoyan saw these two familiar faces, his eyes were also quite excited: "Where is Elder Ran, how is Elder Ran?"

Pan Yunqiu and Wang Hongxing's weeping expressions eased, and they looked at each other invisibly, crying louder:

"Elder Zheng, you must avenge Elder Ran. In order to let us disciples escape, Elder Ran dealt with Zhong Limei alone, and finally...finally..." Pan Yunqiu broke down in tears.

"In the end, we were the only ones who escaped!" Wang Hongxing said in great sorrow.

"Damn it, don't worry, this old man will definitely avenge Elder Ran!"

Hearing these two simple descriptions, Zheng Zhaoyan could imagine a dark night, surrounded by fires burning, staining the face of the elder who sacrificed his life for righteousness, and the stalwart figure facing the terrifying Zhong Limei alone for the lives of his disciples.

Seeing the two crying bitterly, everyone lamented one by one, and they could also imagine the tragedy of Elder Ran's heroic sacrifice.

"Don't worry, Zhong Limei will die in our hands, our Fengxue Tower must let Zhong Limei pay for his blood!" Elder Huang showed an unprecedented fierce look.

He knew that he couldn't kill Zhonglimei, but the hidden Venerable Lian would definitely be able to, as long as he tricked Zhonglimei out of the city and fought with him, and Venerable Lian would attack him from behind, Zhonglimei would be dead!
"set off!"

Immediately, everyone led the army to Linhuan County City with great momentum.
