Chapter 286: Chen Yan's Choice
It's just that there are less than 7,000 soldiers in Duolai Town now, and even with the elite army that has just escaped with Chen Yan, there are less than 10,000, and it is a fool's dream to rely on this person to resist Ling Yun's attack.
Chen Yan looked around in a panic, she never thought that she would not be able to support two hours in the head-on confrontation with Ling Yun, and Chen Yan found that there were at least three powerful masters around Ling Yun, and even if their strength was not as good as Ling Yun, it was almost the same.
Yuanwu peak masters, a total of three?
What the hell is going on!
Chen Yan was extremely panicked, at least according to her previous information, she didn't know where these people came from.
And Bai Juyan didn't know where to go at this moment, even if he led his troops to fight before, even if he was defeated, Chen Yan gave him a carry, but this defeat directly lost nearly 70,000 troops.
This is almost all the elite troops in Chen Yan's leadership, so if Bai Juyan escapes back at this moment, I'm afraid even Chen Yan won't be able to keep him, of course, Bai Juyan is also very smart and knows that he must not go back.
Now that Chen Yan's army of 70,000 has been lost, Ling Yun can almost run rampant among Chen Yan's leaders.
On the other side, Ling Yun's side counted that the loss of soldiers and horses was less than 5,000, mainly because he followed the cavalry to attack, so it was easy to kill the enemy, and the original fighting strength and military salary of Lingyun's army were very high, so that these soldiers played a role in the battle.
In addition, the strength of the black-armored cavalry has increased greatly.
"We have limited time now, Wu Huotian and Qing Hongxue each take their own soldiers to the east, take all the towns within Chen Yan's territory, and then after arriving at Dusk Town, start attacking Chen Yan City. Ling Yun pointed to Chen Yanling's map and said.
This road is almost a circle, after attacking the south within Chen Yan's territory, and then going north to attack Chen Yancheng.
Wu Huotian and Qing Hongxue glanced at each other, nodded and said, "No problem!" After speaking, the two left with the army.
Ling Yun then said to Zhuang Wu and Richard: "You lead your army to set off from here to the west, take all the remaining towns, and then go around to Chen Yan City, I and the natural disaster will go down to Duo Town and then all the way to the south, we will gather outside Chen Yan City!"
Chen Yancheng's army had almost been wiped out, and there were several important military defense fortresses in Chen Yan's territory, so the ordinary town was almost unable to defend.
Therefore, they should not encounter much resistance along the way.
"It's the teacher!"
"Understood!" Zhuang Wu and Richard said at the same time, and then led the troops away.
Only Ling Yun's side remained, plus thousands of cavalry from the natural disaster, and the sword pointed at Duolai Town.
Duolai Town is the largest town in Chen Yan City, its area can almost be compared with Chen Yan City, originally Duolai Town has at least more than 20,000 defenders, but this time in order to deal with Ling Yun, Chen Yan has already drawn out a lot of the army of Duolai Town.
Because of the defeat, Duolai Town is now almost defenseless, and a few thousand black-armored cavalry and white-armored cavalry are enough to deal with Duolai Town.
After arranging everything, Ling Yun took the natural disaster in the direction of Duolai Town.
In the Knight's Mansion of Duolai Town, Chen Yan looked for Bai Juyan in a hurry, but he didn't find it, at this time Wang Lang hurriedly said: "Lord, now our army has suffered heavy losses, relying on a small Duolai Town is no longer able to defend, it is better to give up this place, now immediately return to Chen Yan City, and then mobilize all Chen Yan to lead the army to withdraw to Chen Yan City to fight Ling Yun to the death in the city, at least until Bai Zichen, Yun Jie and Xia Yuan come to the rescue, or they enter the purple collar."
"Let Ling Yun have no time to take care of him, so he has to retreat and leave!" Wang Lang's clothes had also become tattered in the war, and his beard had been burned off a lot, and his clothes looked embarrassed.
Chen Yan has never found Bai Juyan, so he naturally guessed that this guy might have fled, after all, now Chen Yanling has lost seventy percent of his troops, and all of them are elites, as long as a slightly smarter guy can guess that if he continues to fight against Ling Yun, he will lose in the end.
And many people have now begun to find their own way out, after all, the people here, whether it is Chen Yan's generals, or these strategists and military advisors, each of them represents Chen Yan's family, and they have to find a way out for their own family and future generations.
"Lord, if we hadn't fought hard with Ling Yun once before, and the army in our hands would not have decreased, we might be able to take advantage of the town and even rely on Chen Yancheng to start a big war with Ling Yun.
"But now that we have lost nearly seventy percent of our troops, even if Bai Zichen, Yun Jie and Xia Yuan attack the purple collar at the same time, I am afraid it will be difficult to solve our current crisis, so my subordinates think that there are two options now. An old man with a goatee touched his beard, and although he was embarrassed now, he still showed a dashing demeanor, and said hurriedly.
"Mr. Chen Sheng, if there is any way now, just say it directly, there is no need to hide it. Chen Yan hurriedly said, because of Bai Juyan, Chen Yan has always disliked Wang Lang, but now he is more willing to listen to Chen Sheng's plans and methods.
Chen Sheng nodded, and continued: "Lingyun's strength is not bad, and it is indeed not easy to take a cloud map territory in a short period of time, so my subordinates think that our first choice is to surrender to Lingyun now, so that at least we can keep the lord's power, even if we lose the dominance of the Chen Yan lord, at least the identity will not be left too low, and we can keep the lord family Chen family and most of the families in the city." ”
Chen Yan didn't speak, just looked at Chen Sheng calmly, according to the family bloodline, Chen Sheng is still Chen Yan's grandfather, but the bloodline is far away, so Chen Yan did not regard him as his elder.
She also had to admit at this moment that the situation was indeed as Chen Sheng said, if she chose to surrender to Lingyun, she could at least save her family and avoid the next disaster, but so far Chen Yan was still unwilling.
Chen Sheng saw that Chen Yan was still hesitating, so he continued: "If Lord Lord is unwilling to surrender, there is another way, that is, to temporarily abandon Lord Chen Yan, leave immediately with all our current army and wealth, and go to Lord Ed, I believe that as long as the lord dedicates most of the wealth in the barony to Lord Id, he will definitely find a way to help your lord recover Lord Chen Yan, which is also the best way for his subordinates." ”
Although Lingyun's Cloud Atlas Territory has not yet reached the level of a viscounty, at the current rate of development, sooner or later it will definitely become a big problem for Idfurro's henchmen.
