Chapter 280: Qiu Chang's Array

Thinking that he would face the frontal attack of the Eastern Prince's Mansion in the near future, Shen Tuyan was a little worried, he didn't expect things to develop to this point.

At first, he was involved in the general trend of the enclave, just to improve his status and strive for more benefits. This was the case with Liu Tianyi at the beginning, and the same is true for the later advocacy of hostility to the Dongwangfu.

But now, thinking about the benefits that the man promised him, Shen Tuyan always felt a little lost.

He didn't expect Liu Tianyi to suddenly surrender, nor did he expect that the 100,000 elite soldiers in the enclave would be so vulnerable, and he didn't expect that Tian Yuanbai, who was the second person in the enclave, would suddenly withdraw his troops and directly withdraw from the Wufeng City area. This made all his previous plans come to naught.

And now, the flames of war in the entire enclave have burned to the Qiuchang City area, and he Shen Tuyan may have to bear the wrath of the entire Dongwang Mansion.

After returning to the station to collect news, he realized that after the Dongwangfu entered the enclave, he was the only one who really started a war with the Dongwangfu, Shen Tuyan. Kill the soldiers of the East Palace, besiege the generals of the East Palace, and intend to annihilate them all. Now that Shen Tuyan thinks about this, he feels a headache.

The enclave's original plan was to introduce the high-level officials of the Eastern Wangfu into Wufeng City to trap them. Introduce a portion of the army of the Eastern Mansion into the enclave, use the depth of the enclave to drag this army to death, and then concentrate superior forces to regain control of the Blackstone Bridge. As a result, the East Prince's Mansion can only suffer a dumb loss, as long as the Black Stone Bridge is controlled, it is impossible for the East Prince's Mansion to attack the Black Stone City Wall head-on.

Originally, this plan seemed to be flawless, and the Eastern Prince's Mansion was not the slightest defense. But what I never expected was that Liu Tianyi lived in Wufeng City, and he was the leader of Wufeng City, and he was actually occupied by two thousand soldiers from Dongwangfu, and he didn't spend a single soldier. Tian Yuanbai, who was in charge of defense in front of Wufeng City, for some reason, suddenly retreated and went back to Leyang City to guard him. What's even more infuriating is that Liu Tianyi's younger brother Liu Tianyang, with 40,000 elite soldiers, actually surrendered without a fight and led all the sergeants to surrender to Dongwangfu.

All the plans have failed, and only himself, stupidly trying his best to deal with the Dongwang Mansion, even at the expense of forcibly conscripting the people, consuming the enemy's strength, can also meet that person's conditions.

Shen Tuyan originally planned very well, if Changxiang City could not besiege the Dongwangfu army to death, then he only needed to pursue it in the rear and chase the Dongwangfu army into the Wufengcheng area, which would inevitably confront Tian Yuanbai's army head-on. If Dongwangfu and Tian Yuanbai's army fought, with the combat effectiveness of the Dongwangfu Iron Cavalry, it might cause a large number of casualties to Tian Yuanbai's troops, if so, it would be very beneficial to himself.

Not only can he fulfill that person's conditions, but after that, in the enclave, he also has an ally invisibly, once Tian Yuanbai fights with the Dongwangfu, with his principles of doing things, he will definitely not give up, and when he says a few more words on the side, he is likely to provoke a full-scale war between the Dongwangfu and the enclave. At that time, no one will investigate the matter of forcibly conscripting the people.

After completing that person's conditions, you can get a rich reward for wanting to be, and if you start a war with the East Wangfu head-on, the entire enclave will rely on itself more places, and your status will be greatly improved. And the threat that that person brings will also be self-defeating.

But people are not as good as heaven, and Shen Tuyan never thought that the battle between the enclave and the East Wangfu would collapse at the first touch. Wufengcheng Liu Tianyi surrendered. Tian Yuanbai withdrew to Leyang City, Liu Tianyang surrendered without a fight with 40,000 elite soldiers, Wufengcheng issued a surrender order, and the enclave returned to a state of scattered sand again.

As for himself, Wufeng City can't go, and the reinforcements of the East Wangfu have entered the enclave, and it is impossible for him to fight head-on, so he can only retreat to Qiuchang City in a gloomy manner, waiting for the East Wangfu to attack.

Shen Tuyan clearly knew that there was a deep hatred between himself and Dongwangfu, and this hatred could only be washed away with blood.

At this moment, Shen Tuyan was sitting in the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion, looking at the afterglow of the sunset outside, sighed softly, and closed his eyes.

He knew that his current use value for that person had been reduced to the minimum, and at this moment, he could only defend Qiu Chang City, trying to defeat the Dongwang Mansion with the slightest possibility, so that there was room for maneuver.

The backyard of Qiuchang City, a hidden courtyard.

A barrier with a faint glow enveloped the entire courtyard, and from time to time it emitted a little blue halo.

Around the courtyard, there was no one and there was silence.

In the courtyard, all the buildings inside have been demolished, except for the surrounding courtyard walls. On the ground, six huge circles were deeply engraved on the ground, flashing blue fluorescence from time to time.

The surrounding forces of nature slowly converged towards this formation, and every half a moment, all the formations of the formation would light up at the same time, and the azure halo suddenly appeared, and then quickly returned to calm.

Due to the throughput of the formation, the power of nature around this courtyard is much stronger than other places, and standing outside the courtyard, ordinary people can feel refreshed.

Shen Tuyan retreated from the left and right lieutenants, and slowly walked to the outside of this remote courtyard, feeling the strong power of nature emanating from the courtyard in front of him, looking at the barrier that flashed blue brilliance from time to time, and sighed softly.

Who can blame the situation so far?

If you blame it, you can only blame yourself, two months ago, I easily accepted the temptation of that person and asked him to arrange a formation in the mansion.

When he opened his eyes again, a trace of ruthless light suddenly burst out in Shen Tuyan's eyes. He stopped feeling emotional, turned and left the courtyard, and returned to his study.

Because of his greed and desire, he wanted to go further, so he slowly fell into the trap of desire and couldn't extricate himself. And now, he wants to back down, but he can't.

He had tied himself to the chariot with his own hands, but until now, he didn't know who the chariot belonged to.

But in any case, he Shen Tuyan, there is no way to retreat, there is only an abyss, and there is no place to bury him.

......

A day later, Ye Guan took Huang Yongning's talisman and led Xu Bao, the centurion of Dongxuancheng, to lead 20,000 soldiers in the garrison outside the Wufengcheng Basin, and was marching in the direction of Qiuchang City.

Riding on the war horse, Ye Guan was wearing a cyan robe, and he looked like he was going to war, but he wanted to visit his old friends. But the black-armored dragon that followed behind him exuded a terrifying and intense aura, but it was in strong contrast with Ye Guan's aura.

Xu Bao was beside Ye Guan and looked at Ye Guan from time to time. He had some doubts in his heart, such an immortal wind bone, like Ye Guan of a kind elder, but he was an absolute authority figure in the Dongwang Mansion, and a decision could bring about the life and death of tens of thousands of people, which made Xu Bao very confused.

"Lord Ye, what kind of person is it......" Xu Bao thought in his heart, and quietly turned back, behind Ye Guan, followed by several generals who went out with the army this time, among which the captains of the major teams followed their respective teams, which were considered to be the senior generals of this expedition, and behind Ye Guan were the captains with the direct title of the empire. Generals, these people have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and they have countless achievements, everyone is a good general who has experienced a hundred battles, and they are all characters who call for wind and rain anywhere in the empire, but they are willing to obey Ye Guan's orders.

Although Xu Bao has been in the East Palace's mansion for seven years, he has never really been on the battlefield. Even so, he understood that the positions of these generals behind him in the Dongwang Mansion could be described as the mainstay. Such a character is also obedient to Ye Guan, but it makes Xu Bao even more puzzled.

In front of the sergeant, Ye Guan always looked at him with a pleasant face, and rarely got angry. No matter what happens, Ye Guan's face is always calm and calm, and he is confident. It was as if anything in front of him could be easily resolved.

Long before Ye Guan became the personal guard of the East King, he was also a general on the battlefield, both civil and military, and he was invincible. At that time, most of his subordinates are now generals who lead the troops in the Eastern Palace. After Ye Guan was seriously injured and retreated from the front line, many of his former old subordinates wanted to retire with Ye Guan, but they were stopped by Ye Guan. Later, the construction of Wuxing City was almost completed by Ye Guan by himself, and he reorganized the team to carry forward Wuxing City.

Ye Guan's deeds were widely spread in the East Palace, and when they heard Ye Guan's name before, everyone had reverence. At the beginning, Xu Bao saw Ye Guan, and he also felt this way. But after contact, the feeling that Ye Guan gave him changed a little. He is not like the admirable high-level of the palace as in the legend, but more like an elder in the clan, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, very comfortable, making people willingly obey his dispatch, as long as he is with Ye Guan, he involuntarily wants to listen to him.

This feels very strange, Xu Bao thought so, and secretly glanced at Ye Guan again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Ye Guan seemed to have a feeling, and also glanced back at Xu Bao, and smiled lightly at Xu Bao, making Xu Bao's heart feel like a spring breeze.

But now Ye Guan is not in a very good mood. Because he didn't find a way to crack Qiu Changcheng, and he didn't figure out the intentions of the people behind Shen Tuyan.

The cultivation of death qi that he thought about before was only a one-sided conjecture, and there was no evidence to support it, Ye Guan wanted to think about as many things as possible, but he was surprised to find that there were too few things he could think of about this matter.

And for this expedition, Ye Guan is also worried. Not to mention the estimate of Shen Tuyan and the entire Qiuchang City area in his heart, even if there is no person behind him, it is not an easy task for him to take the five cities of Qiuchang City head-on with only 20,000 soldiers.

Although his heart is chaotic, on the surface, Ye Guan is tired, as always, confident. The generals and sergeants on the left and right did not think that they would face such a difficult problem.

Following Ye Guan on the expedition, it is very desirable for many generals and sergeants, Ye Guan has a very high reputation in the army, known as unparalleled wisdom, even if the current military advisor knows the demon Ning Yi, compared with Ye Guan, it is slightly inferior.
