The patrols did not go out at night, and the first night of the fortress was quiet, but everyone had trouble sleeping, some were afraid, some were excited, and some were curious.

When the first light was projected on the earth, gunshots rang out at the border of Iron Mountain City, and then the entire Iron Mountain City was tense.

Marauders are indispensable in every town, and some materials cannot be traded and can only be robbed, and the marauders do this kind of dirty work, and the hook is the leader of the looters in Fengyang Town.

At Lihuang's behest, he infiltrated the borders of Iron Mountain City before dawn, and then began to attack the marauders and patrols stationed outside Iron Mountain City.

Cao Po heard a firefight as soon as he got up, he felt something wrong, he thought it might be a normal firefight with savage bandits, but when the patrol was attacked one after another, he couldn't sit still, and this fool also felt that something big was about to happen.

But he was a man who had no idea, and quickly summoned everyone to a meeting.

Everyone quarreled for a long time, and one person clapped his hands and said: "Don't quarrel, this must be Fengyang Town doing something, our people outside the city have been messed up, and some small garrisons have also been beaten one after another, except for Fengyang Town, who else has the ability to suddenly appear in our territory and do this!" ”

"Shoot your uncle, this is still for you to say, Lao Tzu called you here to ask you to discuss whether we should go out, whether we want to start a war with Fengyang Town." Cao Po was furious, he found that the people in his hands were even more stupid, he could know that these marauders must be from Fengyang Town, but these people still had to quarrel over this.

The intelligence officer said with some apprehension: "I just received the news, yesterday Bai Yucheng entered the fortress, and now the fortress is moving southward, and it will probably be able to come over tomorrow, there is a lot of movement in Fengyang Town, and I feel that I am preparing for war." ”

"First send a corps to exterminate the marauders who are causing trouble in our territory, this is simply breaking ground on Tai Sui's head." One of the lieutenants said angrily.

"Yes, if we don't destroy these people, when Yu Lihuang really fights, these people will become poisonous snakes under our noses, and messing around will affect our defense." The other agreed.

"The fortress will only come tomorrow, we can destroy it, but we have to call reinforcements immediately, our corps may be enough for Lihuang, but it is the Hongcheng fortress, it is difficult for us to fight without reinforcements." Another humane.

Cao Po slapped the table and said: "Continue to ask for help from above, transfer back the troops from the towns in the rear that can be transferred back, and the Evil Wolf Legion will go out for me now to destroy the marauders sent by Yu Lihuang!" ”

After Cao Po made the arrangement, he quickly reorganized the troops in the city, he thought that such an arrangement was very cautious and there was no omission, but he ignored an important point and did not tell the Evil Wolf Regiments not to cross the line.

Thirty chariots of the Evil Wolf Corps roared and pounced on the Marauder Corps of the hook, the hook fought and retreated, until it reached the border of the two forces, and then pretended to be defeated and retreated in batches, the Evil Wolf Corps thought that they had a big advantage, and without saying a word, they waved their troops to chase after them, although some people reminded that this was going to Yu Lihuang's territory, but they felt that Yu Lihuang made the first move, not to mention that there was no problem if they didn't go deep.

However, as soon as they crossed the border and chased fiercely, the corps with Yu Lihuang's totem descended from the sky and quickly ambushed the pursuing wolf legions, and the raider corps of the hook completed its task and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Yu Lihuang's corps waited for the rabbit, had already set up the pockets, and was waiting for the enemy with heavy firepower, and as soon as the battle began, it eliminated more than a dozen chariots rushed in by the wolf corps, and when the situation was discovered behind, the chariots from all directions had already surrounded them, and finally the three chariots fled back in a hurry.

Cao Po wanted to wait for support to arrive with peace of mind, but he was shocked when he heard that Yu Lihuang's corps had entered his territory, and he hurriedly sent three corps to fight first.

However, although Yu Lihuang's corps entered the territory of Tieshan City, it did not continue to go deeper, but stopped and began to scold Cao Po.

After the corps sent by Cao Po approached, they were about to start a battle, but Cao Po urgently stopped it.

His subordinates didn't understand: "Lord, they have all hit our territory, and they still don't make a move?!" ”

"Idiot, didn't you hear what they were scolding me?!" Cao Po's face turned green when he heard the sound from the front.

"Shameless Cao Gou, he actually destroyed the Peace Covenant and sent troops to invade my Fengyang Town!"

"Hateful dog thief, you are destroying the covenant between the two parties, maliciously invading my Fengyang Town, and provoking a war!"

"It's too annoying, it's obvious that they invaded first." Cao Po's subordinates looked embarrassed when they heard this, but they didn't understand why Cao Po could still endure it.

Cao Po looked at everyone angrily, and he was really angry, and knocked on the table and said, "Is there a totem hanging on Fengyang Town in the other party's invasion?" Do you have any evidence to prove that the person who came here is from Fengyang Town?! ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they looked at each other only to realize that something was wrong.

"I ...... Did we get it? A man said with a confused face.

"How come I have you idiots!" Cao Po said angrily: "Now it's me who provokes the war, if I continue to fight now, then I will definitely be the igniter of this big war, and I still have my head as soon as the war is over?!" ”

The ministers are embarrassed again, in the last days it is rare for two big forces to fight to completely destroy one side, basically to fight to almost the two sides on the peace talks, the inferior ones will be cut off the land for compensation, and then they have to kill the people who caused the war as one of the compensations, even if they win, unless it is instructed by the above, otherwise there is generally no good fruit to eat, after all, the war is a waste of money and money, there is no good reason to start a war in the last days, and it will be difficult to explain to the lords if it continues, after all, the materials are limited, and most of the time the gains outweigh the losses.

"That'...... And now peace talks? "An idea for housekeeping.

"I ...... I really want to kill you, a bunch of useless things! "Cao Po's liver hurts this group of subordinates who can't help anything, and now that he talks about peace, it's not for nothing that he has been beaten into the territory, but he has to take all the mistakes, and how to raise his head in the face of Fengyang Town in the future.

"Spend it on Lao Tzu, wait for the reinforcements to come, and we won't move if he doesn't move!" Cao Po made another decision that he thought was perfect, the fortress appeared, he would definitely not sit idly by if he started a war or not, and it would be easy to do things when someone came from above.

The Four Seas Kingdom received information from the Iron Mountain City and the secret agents from all over the world one day in a row, and when they learned that the fortress appeared, they were ready to send troops to press the Iron Mountain City first to be prepared, and they didn't think about sending it out to learn that there was a friction between the Iron Mountain City and Fengyang Town to fight, which made the high-level heads of the Four Seas Kingdom burn out, and the fortress was like falling from the sky and they had nothing to deal with, but the gunpowder smell of this war became stronger and stronger.

The first thing the Black Gold Group got the information was Bai Cheng, and then the Council of Elders and the Cabinet, and in the face of the sudden appearance of a fortress in the north, and most of them were Zhang Zhen's, the entire Black Gold Group was stunned.

However, there is no definite news to prove whether the fortress is Hongcheng's, how strong its combat effectiveness is, and whether it is really Zhang Zhen's.

The Council of Elders proposed that no matter how to send troops to reinforce Baicheng first, the matter between the group and Yu Lihuang was basically laid out on the bright side, this war could not be avoided, if it was really Zhang Zhen who found the Hongcheng fortress, then it would be even more important to fight, otherwise there would be no way to control Zhang Zhen in the future.

However, the cabinet disagreed, they thought that the intention of sending troops was too obvious now, and they should continue to observe, if the Four Seas and Zhang Zhen even fought with Yu Lihuang, then they would send troops again to be a righteous army, not only to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but also to give Zhang Zhen a step down, and firmly control Zhang Zhen in his hands.
