Chapter 389: Zhou Ping's Decision
When others were resting, Zhou Ping unfolded the map again, for Zhou Ping, the importance of the war zone map is no less than the war sword in his hand, the war zone map is kept by Zhang Hanzhong on weekdays, and now Zhang Hanzhong is not by his side, and the responsibility of keeping the map naturally falls on Chu Ci.
"Why don't you take a break, too? Chu Ci pinched Zhou Ping's shoulder, and said worriedly, "It will take at least five hours for Xifeng Mountain to go to Yunshui River, and after arriving at Yunshuihe, you will continue to fight, your current state is definitely not good!"
"It doesn't matter. Zhou Ping squinted and circled on the map, and said, "I won't participate in the next battle if there is no need, now I must find the shortest path to the Yunshui River, and I must stop the Tiger Clan before they attack the city and hurt the people!"
Chu Ci sighed slightly, and carefully continued to massage Zhou Ping, she was not Cheng Ying, she couldn't help Zhou Ping strategically, she could only do what she could......
Zhou Ping patted her hand lightly, didn't say anything more, and continued to devote himself to his work.
Two hours later, although the troops were still a little tired, they were all ready to go, and just as Zhou Ping was about to give the order to leave, a message suddenly broke Zhou Ping's originally calm mood.
Seeing that Zhou Ping didn't have too much expression on his face after the message, but his heart was already overturned, and several generals saw the killing intent in Zhou Ping's eyes, and immediately stepped forward to ask Zhou Ping about the situation.
"The 30,000 city guards sent to block the snake clan before have been defeated, and it won't be long before the snake clan will attack the border city......" Zhou Ping's eyes narrowed when he said these words slowly, and the killing intent in his heart began to climb wildly, but just when the killing intent was about to reach the critical point, Zhou Ping restrained himself.
Although Zhou Ping knew that there might be a loss of the battle line, he didn't expect it to be so fast, although the 35,000 city guards were not elite main battle camp soldiers, but even 35,000 pigs would not be defeated so quickly, right?
Of course, now is not the time for Zhou Ping to be held accountable, as the supreme commander of the third theater, he must make sure that Mount Tai collapses in front of him without changing his color, and he must stabilize it at any time, because once he panics, it will be unstable!
"I can't catch up!" Hanjiu, the general of the Flying Fish Battalion, clenched the saber in his hand and said in a deep voice, "There are no other troops nearby, and it is impossible for us to rush over in one day!"
Everyone else clenched the ice blade in their hands, as soldiers, it was their duty to protect the people, and now they knew that the people at the border were about to be slaughtered but they could not do anything, and this sense of powerlessness completely ignited the anger in their hearts.
Zhou Ping sank his breath and said word by word, "I will never allow this kind of thing to happen again! Before all of us die in battle, if anyone dares to let go of an orc, I will definitely cut him!"
He doesn't need to say this, but no bloody soldier would watch the people behind him be harmed!
"Let's go!" Zhou Ping said categorically.
The soldiers on the battlefield are buried in the loess to ensure the well-being of the people in the rear, this is their fate!
At this time, Zhang Hanzhong was monitoring the movements of the Tiger Clan troops, as long as the Tiger Clan troops had any wind and weeding, he would immediately pass it on to Zhou Ping, and Zhou Ping brought him a large amount of messenger jade for this trip, and now Zhang Hanzhong does not need to worry about the consumption of messenger jade at all.
"There has been a movement in the Tiger Clan, and their scouting force has been scattered. Lin Lin said to Zhang Hanzhong in a deep voice: "They may be going to act!"
Zhang Hanzhong frowned, at this time, there were still two hours left before Zhou Ping scheduled to rush to Yunshui River, if the Tiger Clan troops began to advance at this time, then Zhou Ping's previous deployment might be in vain!
He did not hesitate to take out the messenger jade and pass the matter to Zhou Ping, Zhou Ping is not a fool, he naturally knows that the speed of all the troops marching together will definitely slow down, so he specially sent the Flying Fish Battalion and the Suzaku Battalion of the Yama Army to set off first, these two troops are cavalry, and the speed of the march at full speed must be much faster than that of the infantry, calculating the time, it should be a moment and a half away.
"Immediately let the Flying Fish Battalion and the Vermilion Bird Battalion block the Tiger Clan troops on the road ahead, there is no need to fight hard, but it must be contained until the arrival of the large army!"
Zhou Ping gave a death order, he must limit the battlefield to the periphery of the border line as much as possible, and never let this battle affect the people in the city!
The Flying Fish Camp and the Vermilion Bird Camp were only a quarter of an hour's away from the Yunshui River at this time, and after receiving Zhou Ping's message, they immediately turned their horses' heads and took a shortcut to the front to intercept them.
"Full speed march, be sure to get to the battlefield within an hour and a half!"
The situation of the Tiger Clan's troops is unknown, and even Zhang Hanzhong can't see how many Xuanjing powerhouses the enemy has, after all, the Tiger Clan's exploration troops are not vegetarians, and Zhang Hanzhong and they can't get too close at all.
If they arrive a minute late, the danger of the Suzaku Battalion and the Flying Fish Battalion will be one more point, these troops are the elite of the elite, even if one more Zhou Ping dies, it is extremely distressing, all he can do now is to march at full speed and support to the battlefield in the shortest possible time.
The Tiger Clan's troops have been reorganized, and they are now marching along the Yunshui River in the direction of Yunshui City! Zhang Xiaoyue's message made Zhou Ping's heart tense, once the battlefield is close to Yunshui City, when the Tiger Clan is defeated, he can choose to rush into the city and slaughter it, then all Zhou Ping's preparations will be over!
"All the Xuan Realm powerhouses are dispatched, and they will cooperate with the Flying Fish Battalion and the Vermilion Bird Battalion to stop the Tiger Clan troops!" Zhou Ping said in a deep voice towards the four Xuan Realm powerhouses behind him.
"But what about your safety?" Zhang Xiaoyue asked in a deep voice, "If we all leave, and there are local Xuanjing powerhouses who attack and kill you, what will happen to your safety?"
"Don't worry about me!" Zhou Ping pushed Zhang Xiaoyue, "I and Chu Ci will definitely be able to resist the powerhouse of the Xuan Realm, you don't have to worry about my safety!"
"If the front-line battlefield can't hold off the Tiger Clan troops, then all our previous preparations will be over!"
"Now that the battlefield of the Snake Clan has been defeated, if the Tiger Clan has not been able to defend it, then what face will there be to face the people of the Tang Dynasty! What face will there be to face Marshal Chu Li!"
The war hammer in Huang Ren's hand was roared by him wielding, he was the strongest of the several Xuan Realm powerhouses, and his opinion played a vital role at this time!
To be honest, Huang Ren had never seen such a soldier, obviously he had not reached the Xuan Realm, but he dared to send all the Xuan Realm powerhouses around him to fight, was he really not afraid of being attacked and killed?
