Chapter 422: Sending Troops to Attack
Regarding what happened on the front line of the Immortal Realm, Chu Ke, who was in Yuezhou City, naturally did not know.
But in the dark, he felt that something was resonating with him in the far north.
In this regard, Chu Ke thought about it for a few days, but still couldn't answer.
Even when they asked the Demon Soul and the White Moon, they didn't have any explanation.
Although this feeling was strange, Chu Ke didn't take it to heart.
During this time in Yuezhou City, the good news came one after another.
First of all, on the question of mutant spirit animals.
With the strong support of Xu Yu and others, plus the help of Meng Fangkai.
The situation of mutated spirit beasts outside Yuezhou City has basically been controlled.
The immortal cultivators or immortals who lived outside the city lived a stable life again after a short period of turmoil.
On the Chuzhou side, Xuanbingtai has also increased its infiltration, and the intelligence network has begun to take shape.
However, Ma Tianjiao's attitude is still unclear, so Yuezhou City is still cautious.
Shen Lifeng is worthy of being an elite member of the Demon Realm, and under such a strong interrogation by the Xuanbing Stage, he has not missed a single breath until now.
But this is not in a hurry, the coming day is long, and Xuanbing Tai has time.
What makes Chu Ke most gratifying is that his own marksmanship has made good progress now.
Just like Meng Fangkai said, Chu Ke deliberately introduced his own style into it when he used marksmanship.
After a long period of continuous practice, Chu Ke can be regarded as a small success.
Although there is still a lot of distance from Meng Fangkai's marksmanship with a soul.
But now Chu Ke's Xinghan gun technique, he is quite satisfied.
Chu Ke sat in the study, picked up a scroll sent by Xuanbing Platform at random, leaned on the back of the chair and slowly flipped through it.
He has now moved out of the City Lord's Mansion, and Yuezhou City has separately transferred a large mansion with three entrances and three exits for him as his residence in Yuezhou City.
Flipping through the scroll in his hand, the content recorded on this paper was nothing more than the progress of some affairs handled by the Xuanbing Platform and the City Lord's Mansion and some plans for future work.
To be honest, Chu Ke was not interested in any of this.
However, I came on the orders of Asgard, and I can't just do superficial work, I need a certain amount of understanding and participation.
After all, the intention of the Waihan Immortal Emperor to send him over was also to hone himself.
But once it comes to a professional place, Chu Ke will only listen, not speak.
It is best to leave professional things to professional people.
A layman leads an insider, and there will be no other result except for overturning.
Practice martial arts during the day, practice at night, and participate in some things within your ability in your spare time.
Such a peaceful day is quite rare.
It is precisely because it is also rare that Chu Ke's life came to an end after only lasting half a month.
"Ma Tianjiao is leading an army of 10,000 to attack?"
Chu Ke sat in the conference hall, and he sat on the first seat as the main general.
On his right and left sides, the people sat down according to their positions.
Wu Wen, who was sitting in second place on Chu Ke's left hand, told Ma Tianjiao's situation.
"Under the crown of Qiqi, Ma Tianjiao led an army of 10,000 people, and the auxiliary soldiers gathered along the road, a total of more than 18,000 people, are rushing to the northeast of Yuezhou. Wu Wen said.
"Chuzhou City has a total of 20,000 headquarters, and 10,000 soldiers and horses are left behind, plus 4,000 city guards. This time, Ma Tianjiao's people and horses are not small. ”
There are a total of 20,000 elite troops, and Ma Tianjiao dispatched half of them, which is indeed not small.
"How many soldiers and horses do I have in Yuezhou City now?" asked Chu Ke.
He is not good at other things, but in terms of military affairs, Chu Ke is still quite confident.
"Under the crown of Qi, there are three battalions in the city, with a total of 4,500 people in 30 schools. Together with the city guards, there were 7,500 men. Wu Wen said.
Seven thousand five hundred, against eighteen thousand.
If it's just defending the city, it's not a big problem.
Ma Tianjiao didn't know why, and suddenly sent 10,000 troops to Yuezhou.
At this point, from the hands of the Xuanbingtai people in Chuzhou City, there is not much obvious information.
However, no matter what this Ma Tianjiao wants to do.
With 18,000 people, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to break through the city of Yuezhou, which has nearly 8,000 defenders.
"Unless you're a god of war, you'll turn sand into a soldier. Chu Ke said in his heart.
"Okay, first transfer 2,000 men and horses from the three battalions to strengthen the defense of the four gates. The city guards need to pay more attention these days, Commander Lan Jia, this matter is left to you. Chu Ke looked at Lan Jia and said.
"The last general obeys!" Lan Jia said, standing up and bowing his hand.
"In addition, I would like to send a team of envoys to visit the Ma City Lord, do you have any suggestions?" Chu Ke looked at everyone and said his thoughts.
Send a messenger?
Since ancient times, the two armies have been at war, but they have often sent envoys to and fro.
But right now, this Ma Tianjiao sent 10,000 troops, menacing, and he didn't say what his purpose was.
He has not yet sent a messenger, shall we send it first?
After everyone present thought for a while, Li Su stood up.
"Under the crown of Qiqi, Ma Tianjiao's intention is unknown, and it is also appropriate to send a messenger to ask. It's just..."
"It's just that his movements are too easy for people to feel clear, do you think you don't need to leave this time?"
"Actually, on the contrary, I don't need to go through the scenes. I need a messenger, not to make peace, but to bring me a letter to him. ”
"Faith?" the crowd wondered.
"Yes, yes. Chu Ke nodded, stood up from his position, and walked to the middle of the crowd.
"Ma Tianjiao sent 10,000 soldiers, plus 18,000 miscellaneous soldiers. I don't think that such a person who is willing to spend a lot of effort to train elite soldiers would think that he can rely on this amount of troops to defeat Yuezhou City. ”
"Yuezhou City is not only a high wall, but also nearly 8,000 soldiers and horses. Even if there are 10,000 strong enemies, we can definitely defend it if we occupy a favorable position. Chu Ke said slowly.
"What's more, Ma Tianjiao is not a fool, when I first came to Yuezhou City, other surrounding cities knew the news, and he was no exception. ”
"He knew that there was an immortal emperor like me in Yuezhou City today, and he dared to send troops to come, do you think there is something greasy in this?"
"The subordinates have been taught. Li Su bowed.
"Someone! Pen and ink waiting!" Chu Ke smiled slightly, turned his head and looked through the window, casting his eyes in the direction of the northeast.
At this time, in the northeast of Yuezhou City, a large army rolled up the rolling yellow sand and came all over the sky.
The cavalry was in front, and the infantry was in the rear.
Among the three armies, a strong man rode a black horse and walked calmly among the guards.
Hidden under the black helmet are a pair of radiant eyes.
"Yuezhou City, how long is it left?"
"Back to the city lord, there is still an hour away. ”
"An hour?"
Ma Tianjiao looked up at the sky, and then looked at the state of the soldiers on the left and right.
Then the order was given to go down, and the whole army was told to stop advancing and repair in place.
Generals at all levels didn't understand Ma Tianjiao's words, but they still did it.
From the departure of Chuzhou City to the present, with the quality of Ma Tianjiao's army, this distance is nothing at all.
However, Ma Tianjiao still asked the whole army to stop and repair, in his opinion, when he sent troops to Yuezhou City, the people in Yuezhou City would not be stupid enough to know anything.
Thinking about this time, it is time for them to make a move.
"City Lord. ”
A general who went and returned came to Ma Tianjiao's side again.
"City Lord, there is something unknown to my subordinates. The general said.
Say. ”
"City Lord, we are waiting to set off from Chuzhou, and the long journey is nothing to us. But Yuezhou City is just around the corner, why don't we hurry up and rush there, but instead repair here and give them time to defend?"
Ma Tianjiao looked at him deeply.
The general was looked at by Ma Tianjiao like this, and suddenly his neck shrank back inadvertently.
"Come, let's find a place with fewer people to talk about. ”
Ma Tianjiao turned over and dismounted, and the young general followed.
Coming to a tree not far from the army, the two sat on the ground.
While looking at the scenery around him, he chatted casually like a pair of uncles and nephews.
"Do you want to ask this yourself, or do the people below also want to ask this?" Ma Tianjiao smiled faintly and said.
"Hmm... The brothers didn't understand what the lord meant. The man hesitated again and again, but under Ma Tianjiao's gaze, he still chose to speak.
"Many people think that if they rest now, the Yuezhou side will seize the time to arrange the city defense, and at that time, the battle will be more difficult to fight. ”
"Who said we're going to war?"
Ma Tianjiao suddenly said this, which made the general suddenly choke.
Don't fight?
Why are you doing such a big formation if you don't fight?
That's 10,000 people, 10,000 people.
Including the auxiliary troops from the nearby areas along the way, there are almost 20,000 people.
The army of so many people rushed all the way to the vicinity of Yuezhou City, not to mention, but you still said that you were not here to fight.
Is there a mistake, big guy?
"We're just putting on a pose for Yuezhou to see. Ma Tianjiao said with a relaxed expression.
He motioned to the general beside him, and looked around at the soldiers who were sitting on the ground resting: "Zhenjie, look at it, how are the soldiers and horses under my command?"
That general's original name was Jiang Zhenjie, and he was one of Ma Tianjiao's cronies, so Ma Tianjiao often called him by his name.
"General, our soldiers and horses in Chuzhou City, I don't dare to say big things. But in the entire south of the fairy world, I'm afraid we can't find a few teams that are stronger than us. Jiang Zhenjie said.
For the army in Chuzhou City, this young general also has full self-confidence.
"Yes, the soldiers and horses have been trained to this extent, and it is indeed difficult to find them in the south of the fairy world. And the quality is better than that of our Chuzhou army, and it may not be able to catch up in terms of quantity. Ma Tianjiao said with emotion.
"It's such an army that I have today's status. If they are weakened, then my Ma Tianjiao will have less right to speak in the south of the entire Immortal Realm. ”
Ma Tianjiao had something to say, but Jiang Zhenjie didn't hear what he meant.
Chuzhou City has always been one of the most powerful state cities in the south of the fairy world.
How powerful is it?
For example, Xu Zhuo in Yuezhou City is doing well.
But if you really want to compare, even if Ma Tianjiao only dispatches an army of 10,000 people today, Xu Zhuo only has the share of holding on to the city and being beaten passively, and it is very likely that he will not be able to hold it.
In other words, the main army of 20,000 people will only be in the hands of Ma Tianjiao one day.
His Chuzhou City can conduct a two-front battle at any time, and at the same time take two cities about the same size as Yuezhou.
It must be known that Yuezhou is in the south of the fairy world, and its strength belongs to the middle and upper reaches.
This is why Gu Nan would find the Xu family in Yuezhou instead of other cities.
Therefore, Jiang Zhenjie is also strange.
Even if the Chuzhou army disarms 10,000, there will still be 10,000 horses.
Even if these 10,000 horses stayed in Chuzhou, in the south of the entire fairy world, no one dared to look down on Ma Tianjiao.
Where did Ma Tianjiao say this?
"City Lord, since you want to prove that Chuzhou City is still majestic, then I can be in charge of this pressure operation. Jiang Zhenjie said.
"I've heard the old saying that the more powerful the beast, the less it will attack easily, and it will never do it for a trivial matter. ”
"City Lord, you should now sit in Chuzhou City, such a small matter, it is better for us to do it. So that others know that even if it is Yuezhou, he is not qualified to let the city lord of Chuzhou go out in person. ”
"Hahaha!" Ma Tianjiao patted his thigh with his right hand and smiled heartily.
Then he raised his left hand and patted Jiang Zhenjie on the shoulder.
"Zhenjie, Zhenjie, when will you learn to pat on the back?" Ma Tianjiao looked at Jiang Zhenjie, and the tears in his eyes burst out of laughter, "This fart is still serious, it's really yours, haha." ”
Jiang Zhenjie sat awkwardly in place, silent.
It's obviously my own feelings, how can I say it and become a sycophant.
"Zhenjie, I must come in person this time. Not just to show off muscles, but also to meet someone. ”
"People?"
"Yes, Xuanbingtai has started to build their intelligence network in Chuzhou City, right?" Ma Tianjiao said.
"Yes, for this reason I stayed up all night for the other few days to investigate the matter thoroughly. Speaking of Xuanbing Terrace, Jiang Zhenjie's face became serious.
Although the nominal leader of the fairy world is Sendai, after all, the southern mountain is far away from the emperor.
The boss of every city and county, the emperor of the soil should be used to it.
Suddenly, Xuanbingtai, an organization that represents the power of the Asgard Palace, began to invade your territory, and it was not easy for anyone to change it.
So before Xuanbingtai didn't clearly identify himself, Chuzhou was also happy to be blind.
If you want to infiltrate, I will purify, and if you come, I will rush and enjoy it.
"It's useless, it's not caught. I still know how much energy Chuzhou City has, and the Xuanbing Platform can only be suppressed at most, and it can't be caught. Ma Tianjiao waved his hand, obviously not taking the Xuanbing Platform to heart.
"Compared to Xuanbing Terrace, I care more about this Immortal Emperor in Yuezhou City. Although Xu Zhuo's skills are not very good, it is still very surprising to me that he can think of hiding such an old nest in the deep mountains and old forests. ”
"Originally, when I thought that Xu Zhuo might turn the tables against the sky, this Immortal Emperor, who had never heard of his name, was suddenly transferred from the Immortal Palace. I'm curious and want to meet it. ”
