The best ring

The army of Shuiyue Kingdom was on its way to Linshui City, and they did not encounter any resistance along the way. Therefore, they would not expect that there would be a large number of enemies behind them. Wu Fan transferred the army to the rear of the army of Shuiyue Kingdom, and cooperated with Peng Chuan who was facing the enemy head-on, which would definitely catch the army of Shuiyue Kingdom off guard.

Peng Chuan naturally did not object to Wu Fan's order and quickly responded.

While Wu Fan was mobilizing the army, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom was heading towards Linshui City. Among them, the commander of this army heading to Heishui Kingdom was the 35-year-old general, Shi Wenhao.

Shi Wenhao was wearing a gorgeous armor and riding on horseback. He rubbed his shoulders and casually asked the personal soldier next to him: "How long will it take us to reach Linshui City?"

The personal soldier next to Shi Wenhao quickly replied: "At the current speed, we can reach the foot of Linshui City in two days."

"Two more days? It's really tiring." Shi Wenhao frowned.

In fact, this visit to Blackwater Country was Shi Wenhao's first time leading troops to fight. Although he had been in the army for many years, he was only responsible for training in the camp. He had only commanded a few battles. The biggest one was when he commanded an army of 30,000 people to wipe out 3,000 bandits. He boasted about that battle for four or five years.

And Shi Wenhao, who had little command experience, was able to get the opportunity to lead the army to Blackwater Country this time because of his background. Although Shuiyue Country did not have a large number of family forces like Tianji Country, there were also some officials. This was an inevitable situation, and it existed in almost every country.

The Shi family is a family of officials in Shuiyue State. Many people in the Shi family joined the army, and Shi Wenhao was just one of them. The one with the highest position and the longest seniority was Shi Wenhao's uncle Shi Tian. Shi Tian was a famous general in Shuiyue State. He had a high reputation and connections in the military system of Shuiyue State. He was also a general that Yelu Zong trusted very much. The reason why Shi Wenhao was able to get the opportunity to lead the army this time was because of Shi Tian. In addition, Yelu Zong did not think that Heishui State dared to resist the army of Shuiyue State, so he agreed to let Shi Wenhao lead the army to give Shi Tian a face.

Of course, the reason why Yelu Zong let Shi Wenhao lead the army was not entirely because of Shi Tian. Shi Wenhao's performance in the army was also good on weekdays. Yelu Zong also wanted to train him, so he gave him this opportunity.

However, although Shi Wenhao had a good understanding of training and tactics, he did not have much experience in real command, and had never been on an expedition. Therefore, this march made him feel very tired. Because of his personal reasons, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom marched very slowly, otherwise, they might have arrived at the city of Linshui City long ago.

Now he heard that it would take two more days to reach Linshui City, Shi Wenhao was a little unhappy, which meant that he had to suffer for two more days.

"If I had known it would be so tiring, I should not have fought for this opportunity." Shi Wenhao thought to himself.

However, when he thought that his resume would become brighter when he returned this time, Shi Wenhao's mood improved a little.

"Did he respond to the letter to Peng Chuan?" Shi Wenhao asked.

During the march, Shi Wenhao had already sent a letter to Peng Chuan, the content of which was naturally to persuade Peng Chuan to surrender to their Shuiyue Kingdom, but the response from Peng Chuan did not seem very positive.

"There is still no reply from Linshui City." The personal soldier said.

Shi Wenhao frowned again and said dissatisfiedly: "Is it possible that Peng Chuan wants to be an enemy of our Shuiyue Kingdom?"

In Shi Wenhao's opinion, Peng Chuan would immediately surrender when he saw him leading his army. As long as his army went through Linshui City, Heishui Kingdom would return to the embrace of their Shuiyue Kingdom. He didn't even think about fighting with the army of Heishui Kingdom in this Heishui Kingdom.

However, Peng Chuan's reaction made Shi Wenhao very dissatisfied. Peng Chuan did not surrender to their Shuiyue Kingdom like Qi Feng did. He had been pretending to be deaf and dumb, as if he had not received his letter.

This made Peng Chuan very dissatisfied.

"I have met Peng Chuan before. He has some skills." A general next to Shi Wenhao said about this matter: "I thought he was a smart man, but now it seems that he is stupid."

Peng Chuan's non-response actually conveyed a lot of information, especially after knowing that Peng Chuan had captured Linshui City, he immediately repaired the city wall of Linshui City, which made the people of Shuiyue Kingdom feel even more dissatisfied.

Peng Chuan, as a well-known general in Heishui, had previously been in contact with Shuiyue. It was normal that someone knew him.

"I really want to see if this General Peng is really bold." Shi Wenhao said, "When we arrive at the foot of Linshui City, if Peng Chuan still doesn't express his position, we will attack the city!"

"I agree with General Shi's decision. Heishui is very important to us. We definitely don't want to let them get out of control." At this time, another general said, "Maybe this time our Shuiyue can take advantage of the situation to occupy Heishui and incorporate them into our Shuiyue."

"Yes, instead of letting the people of Heishui be the emperor, it is better to let them become part of our Shuiyue." Another general said.

"This is not a big problem, but if we do this, will it cause dissatisfaction from Yanfeng? After all, our two countries have tacitly agreed that there are Heishui and Nanping as a buffer in the middle." At this time, a general worried.

"What if Yanfeng is dissatisfied? They are busy with their own affairs, how can they care about us? If they dare to send troops, we will directly attack their homeland!"

"That's right, the current Yanfeng is no longer the Yanfeng of the past. They are very weak and are no match for our Shuiyue."

"I haven't fought with the people of Yanfeng on the battlefield for a long time. I can take this opportunity to meet them again."

......

Many generals are not afraid of Yanfeng. They even hope that Yanfeng will send troops. They have seen the decline of Yanfeng in recent years. In their hearts, Yanfeng is no longer their equal opponent. Who knows, one day, they will receive orders from Yelu Zong and attack Yanfeng directly.

Shi Wenhao also did not take Yanfeng too seriously. He even felt that he could conquer Yanfeng with only this 150,000 troops. He thought highly of himself and did not think that anyone in Yanfeng could resist him.
