Chapter 106: A Strange Soldier
Seeing his father say this, Chu Chen finally relieved his heart, so he raised his glass, and everyone drank again.
This time, Chu Xiong was very drunk, Chu Bufan, Chu Chen, and Su Yao did not persuade him to drink less, everyone understood the pain in his heart, perhaps, it is better to be drunk than to be sober.
The army of the Kingdom of Heaven is like a bamboo, with lightning speed, just in less than ten days, it has already beaten through the county of Shuangqing, and went straight to Taoxian County, the battle report on the court of Chu is almost every few hours, and the generals sent by the State of Chu are going to die one by one, so frightened that the prince of the prison country can only ask the king of the backer to take command to stop the army of the kingdom of heaven.
The king of the backer is now in his sixties, but he is still fierce and vigorous, and he is not inferior to young people in his twenties and thirties, coupled with his high martial arts and strong troops, he is already the last hope of the Chu State.
"Childe, I just received news from Wudu City, the prince asked the king of the backer to send troops, and the king of the backer has agreed, and sent 100,000 horses from the Wudu military camp to stop the army of my heavenly kingdom. Two days later, in the evening, Zhao Ling'er suddenly came to Chu Chen's courtyard and reported to him.
"The king of the backers went out in person, which is a surprise. Chu Chen smiled and said, "As soon as he left the capital, he transferred another 100,000 elites out, and this Wudu City is afraid that it is already an empty city, not bad." ”
"Childe, with the martial arts and talent of the king of the backer, I am afraid that General Wei is not his opponent. Zhao Linger said worriedly.
"It doesn't matter, with Liu Kui's grandmaster, even if you can't kill the backer king, at least you can drag him down. Chu Chen said: "Send an order to Wei Wu and ask him to mobilize 20,000 troops to pass through Mount Su, and I will wait at the foot of Mount Su." ”
"Yes, Childe!" Zhao Ling'er took the order and left, and the news spread quickly.
At dinner, Chu Chen told his family that he was going to go far away, but Chu Bufan, Chu Xiong, Su Yao, and Qin Yanran did not agree, because the army of the Heavenly Kingdom had already reached Taoxian County, and it was only more than two hundred miles away from them, so how could they still go out?
"Grandpa, father, sister, Yanran, am I a child, do you need to worry about me so much?" Chu Chen was quite moved in his heart, but there was a look on his lips that they were worried about being superfluous. "What's more, I just went to Yunxi Town to meet a friend, and I came back after the meeting, at most for two or three days. ”
"Chen'er, you just went back to Wuling City, where did you come from?" Chu Xiong asked, with a look of suspicion Chu Chen,
"It's my master, Doctor Lin, who traveled to Yunxi Town. Chu Chen smiled helplessly, and said as if he had to tell the truth: "He doesn't want others to know his whereabouts, so let me go over to see him, so, grandpa, father, you must not tell anyone my master's whereabouts, otherwise the master will blame me." ”
Under the guise of Doctor Lin, Chu Bufan and Chu Xiong let Chu Chen go suspiciously.
The next day, Chu Chen took Zhao Ling'er out, originally Qin Yanran also wanted to go, but was rejected by Chu Chen, he was going to war, not to go to the mountains and rivers, how could he take his beloved girl to adventure?
There are almost 100 miles from Wuling City to Yunxi Town, and the distance to Sushan is almost 120 miles in total, Chu Chen and Zhao Ling'er did not stop all the way, and arrived at the foot of Sushan at midnight, this place is the place where he and Wei Wu made an appointment.
"Ling'er, you can sleep first. After getting off the horse, Chu Chen said to Zhao Ling'er.
"Childe, Ling'er is not tired, it is better for you to sleep first. Zhao Ling'er shook her head and said.
"Let you sleep, go to sleep, can you compare with this son as a girl?" Chu Chen said.
"Okay. Zhao Ling'er nodded obediently, took off a blanket from the horse and spread it on the ground.
Chu Chen found a place next to him and sat down cross-legged and began to meditate, until dawn, when there was a sound of "banging" in the distance, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the direction where the sound came, and after a while, a young man wearing the uniform of a heavenly soldier appeared in Chu Chen's sight with a cautious look.
"Ling'er, people are here. Chu Chen said.
Zhao Ling'er had already gotten up at this time, and was exhaling and practicing qi beside her, and when she heard this, she hurriedly stood up and looked in the direction that Chu Chen was looking at, only to see that the cautious soldiers over there immediately ran over as soon as they saw her.
"Lord Qiqi Zhao, the army has arrived, and it is resting in the mountains and forests at this time. "This soldier came over to report that this was one of the soldiers that Chu Chen had trained in Qingfeng Valley, so he recognized Zhao Ling'er at a glance.
"Childe, are you going now?" Zhao Ling'er asked Chu Chen.
"Order the army to set out at once. Chu Chen stood up and said.
"Yes. After Zhao Ling'er answered, she asked the soldier to go back to convey the order.
The soldier immediately rushed into the mountain forest, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, and not long after, a group of soldiers walked out of the mountain forest.
What Chu Chen didn't expect was that it was Liu Chuang who led the troops this time.
Liu Chuang followed the army out of the mountains and forests, and as soon as he saw Chu Chen, he hurriedly came over to pay respects.
"Meet Mr., I didn't expect that this time Mr. personally led the troops to attack Wudu City. Liu Chuang saluted excitedly.
"I didn't expect that Wei Wu would send you over. Chu Chen nodded, Wei Wu sent Liu Chuang here, but it saved him a lot of worry, at least he didn't have to worry so much about commanding.
"This time it was hard for the lower officials to ask for it, and whether or not they can get this credit depends on Mr. Liu Chuang said.
"Don't worry, you've got the credit. Chu Chen smiled and said, "Okay, order the army to set off." ”
After Chu Chen finished speaking, he got on the horse, and Liu Chuang also hurriedly got on the horse, gave the order to set off, and then followed Chu Chen.
The army set off in a mighty way, and went directly to Wudu City from the path.
Almost two days later, the army successfully arrived outside Wudu City, but it was daytime at this time, so Chu Chen ordered the army to hide on the spot and wait for dark before attacking Wudu City.
From the foot of Mount Su to the outside of Wudu City, Chu Chen led the army on a remote road, except for the poor people in some remote places who saw them, no one in the court of Chu State noticed their strange army at all.
In his previous life, in order to avoid the war, Chu Chen hid in several counties around Wuling City, and this Sushan went in and out several times, although he couldn't know the situation in Sushan, he was relatively familiar, so he dared to let Weiwu send people to pass through Sushan and take Wudu City directly.
Today's Wudu City can be described as a strong outsider, and the elite troops in the military camps around Wudu City have been taken away by the backer king, and the rest are just a rabble, and it is not difficult for Chu Chen to take it down.
