1167. Withdrawal

Fire State.

Among the states of the Dark Realm, the Fire State was not a big state in the first place, but recently, the Fire State was definitely the most eye-catching state in the entire Dark Realm states.

Because Huozhou is reversed.

Things started silently, and before everyone could react, it was like a spark that swept the entire Huozhou in an instant, and now, Huozhou has completely broken away from the sequence of the guardian camp and split itself.

Splitting has happened before, but it has never been as quick and sensational as this one.

Now, the entire Fire State has been surrounded by the prestigious [Zhenyuan Army] in the defenders' camp.

King Zhenyuan personally went out to fight and blocked the entire Huozhou, only allowed to enter but not to leave, as long as it was a creature that came out of Huozhou, regardless of race, regardless of status, whether it was a nobleman or a secret people, they were all killed at the first time, and they would never let go of one.

This kind of policy of killing people has caused some controversy.

Because this is very easy to force some of the originally indecisive aristocratic forces and the powerhouses of the major races in Huozhou to Xiaofei bandits, but it makes the major forces in Huozhou more united, and it is even more difficult to exterminate Xiaofei bandits.

But all the controversy and opposition were strongly suppressed by King Zhenyuan himself.

Whether it was within the Zhenyuan Army, or the nobles in the several states around Huozhou who were recruited to participate in the war, they all felt the determination and cruelty of this camp king.

However, the truth has really developed as everyone feared.

After experiencing the initial panic, Huozhou was indeed united like an iron plate in the shortest possible time, and the thief's laughter was indeed a means, and the entire Huozhou was kneaded together in the shortest possible time, and a terrifying combat force had been initially formed.

After the Zhenyuan army has won four big victories since its initial arrival, it has basically fallen into a tug-of-war mode for nearly twenty days, although there have been occasional victories, but overall, the pace of progress has been very slow and slow.

And as the commander of the Zhenyuan King, a series of military orders issued by many people are also incomprehensible, not the kind of rapid offensive like Mount Tai pressing the top, but a slow offensive that advances inch by inch like a grinding disc to grind all the creatures in Huozhou to death, everywhere it goes, it is basically a complete extermination slaughter.

Among the dozens of aristocratic cities in the central city on the edge of Huozhou, after the arrival of the Zhenyuan army, they surrendered as soon as possible, and insisted that they had been fighting against the bandit army of Xiaofei, and they were loyal to the camp from beginning to end, but they were completely slaughtered by the Zhenyuan army, from the nobles to the dark people, and there was no one left alive.

This kind of cruel method simply made many of his own people in Zhenyuan's army tremble.

It's just that today, the Zhenyuan army occupies less than one-tenth of Huozhou's territory, and the speed of recovery is extremely slow.

In the morning, there were some bad rumors in the army, which caused the king of Zhenyuan to be furious, and he personally took action and killed hundreds of people in the entire advance group, and the army was silent and did not dare to make a sound.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

King Zhenyuan sat behind the keel table, holding the scroll in his hand, but he was obviously a little uneasy, his eyes were deep, and he never looked at the scroll, but was thinking about something, and his pupils were not focused.

The subordinate guards have long been drunk and retreated to guard outside the big tent.

In fact, at this time, King Zhenyuan was regretting.

At the beginning, when I heard about the rebellion in Huozhou, all the major forces in the royal city wanted to obtain the right to lead the troops to the battle, because according to historical experience, this kind of counterinsurgency is very simple, as long as you sweep the past, it doesn't take much time to crush the rebels, and then take the opportunity to loot local wealth and wealth, install your own cronies, and without much effort, you can turn the rebellious Huozhou into the territory of your own faction.

King Zhenyuan also paid some price, and after compromising and exchanging with the major factions in the royal city, he was qualified to go out to quell the rebellion this time.

In his plan, the pacification of Huozhou will be effortless, and after that, the entire Huozhou will become a great supplement to the power of Zhenyuan Wangfu, and will play a huge role in the process of integrating the forces under his control.

But now, he really regretted it.

The picture of heaven and earth has already made him feel tricky.

The reason why the general means of attacking and slaughtering and destroying inch by inch were taken was to prevent the news of what happened in the Heaven and Earth Derivation from Huozhou, but as long as the Zhenyuan army invaded Huozhou, it was inevitable that they would have to come into contact with the creatures of Huozhou, and the soldiers in the army would also hear this secret sooner or later, which means that these soldiers who knew and heard about this secret must also be killed, and it also means that perhaps the number of sergeants killed in the battle will be inferior to the sergeants who were killed and killed.

That's a big loss.

And what made King Zhenyuan feel even more tricky was that in the process of fighting, he had vaguely noticed that the thieves who occupied Huozhou this time were not as weak as many nobles in the royal city thought, especially the bandit leader Xiaofei, whether it was personal strength or scheming wisdom, it was very terrifying, obviously he had already seen the predicament of the Zhenyuan army now, so he simply avoided the battle, and specifically used his butcher's knife to kill those camp nobles who did not really join the bandit army.

Such a method is terrifying, even if King Zhenyuan sees it, he has to pinch his nose and follow the other party's calculations.

Now, it seems that the Huozhou bandits are losing their territory little by little, and the Zhenyuan army completely has the upper hand, but the king of Zhenyuan knows very well that this is the other party deliberately showing the enemy to make weak concessions, even if half of the territory of Huozhou is given up, for this gang of thieves, it will not be a bone-wrenching, but for the Zhenyuan army, the consumption at that time will be very large, and the mysterious spread is like a plague, for the Zhenyuan army to hurt Junda, and the bandits are immune to such a plague.

If he had expected such a situation, King Zhenyuan would definitely not compete for this place on the expedition.

Nowadays, it is difficult to ride a tiger.

Zhenyuanjun is the core strength that the Yuan clan has worked hard to cultivate for generations, every point consumed, it hurts like cutting a knife in his heart, if the core strength is lost, then the glory of the Yuan clan will be scattered in the wind.

If he could, he would want to withdraw his troops now.

But he didn't know that withdrawing the troops and going back would be even more troublesome.

King Zhenyuan threw the scroll in his hand on the table, slowly got up, and came to the formation sand table placed in the center of the big tent.

At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside.

King Zhenyuan frowned slightly.

"Great Marshal, there is an urgent message from His Royal Highness from the royal city. The guards said tremblingly outside.

King Zhenyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Send it in." ”

The door of the tent opened, and the guards walked in with an old man in a gray robe.

"Hmm, Uncle Fu, why are you here in person?" Seeing this gray-robed old man, King Zhenyuan was taken aback, and asked in a cordial tone.

This is an old servant who has followed the Yuan family for hundreds of years, and he was once a martial arts genius who crisscrossed the dark realm, and was later subdued by the previous generation of King Zhenyuan, and has been working for the Zhenyuan King Mansion since then, but he is extremely low-key on weekdays, and the outside world does not know that this Fu Bo is actually a quasi-emperor-level powerhouse.

"Lord, something happened in the mansion, and His Royal Highness the Prince and the Second Prince couldn't make a decision, so they sent an old servant to report. Fu Bo was concise and to the point, never talking much, and bowed down to hand over an urgent jade slip.

"What kind of thing is it, you actually came here in person?" said King Zhenyuan, taking the jade slip, but before he could see it, suddenly a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Fu Bo in surprise, and said, "Are you injured?"

Fauber nodded and said, "Some minor injuries, not in the way." ”

"Who can hurt you?" King Zhenyuan was even more surprised at this moment, Fu Bo Nai was a quasi-emperor, his strength was unfathomable, and he was actually injured, he immediately realized that maybe what happened in the royal city was definitely not simple.

"The prince will understand after seeing the jade slip. "Fauber Road.

King Zhenyuan nodded, and with the special technique of the Yuan clan, he unsealed the jade slip, and then sank into a wisp of divine consciousness and began to read it.

A moment later.

"It's too much of a deception. ”

King Zhenyuan was furious.

The jade slip was in his hand and turned directly into powder.

He fell into a great rage.

"A small [Nine Swords Army], like duckweed, has no foundation, but dares to treat my Zhenyuan Wangfu as nothing, there must be some old things behind his back to support him, hehe, the Sun family, or the Nie family, good, very good, I won't let them go." King Zhenyuan's face was gloomy, and the gloom accumulated over the past few days was revealed like a volcanic eruption: "Fu Bo, the injuries on your body were left by that [Nine Swords Army] Zhang Longcheng?"

Fu Bo nodded: "This person's strength is unfathomable, very terrifying, that day in the palace battle, a total of four quasi-emperors were enshrined, as well as the second prince and I, with the formation in the palace, can not keep him, if he is allowed to live in the world, it must be a big scourge of the palace." ”

King Zhenyuan nodded: "Yes, according to the description in the jade slip, it is indeed very terrifying, hehe, but I will let him understand that even if he is a real martial arts emperor, it is impossible to completely defy the sky......"

At this time, he finally made a complete decision in his heart.

"Come, give orders, the army retreats, immediately pulls out, and returns to the royal city. He said loudly.

"Huh?" the guards were completely stunned.

Drawdown?

Return to the Intramuros?

There was no warning before, so I guess I heard it wrong.

"Why don't you go quickly?" King Zhenyuan raised his eyebrows.

Only then did the guard come back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Obey." He turned around and went out, and hurriedly gave the order.

Fauber stood aside and did not speak again.

He never participated in the decision-making of King Zhenyuan, but only firmly carried out every order, which was one of the biggest reasons why he was able to gain the absolute trust of the previous and current kings of Zhenyuan.

On King Zhenyuan's face, the previous gloom was swept away.

He wanted to find an opportunity to withdraw his troops, and his heart finally sent it to the door himself.

Hehe, his palace is about to be destroyed, but the nobles in the royal city let that madman leave freely, this shame must be washed away, he took the opportunity to move the army back, no one can say anything.

As for the Fire State?

This mess, just let it rot completely, whoever cares about it.

On the same day, the Zhenyuan army withdrew from Huozhou with lightning speed, and the squad returned to the court.

When the news broke, the world shook.
