Chapter 172 The war situation is corrupt (Part 1)

In this world, the richer and more powerful people are, the more they cherish their lives. This has been true throughout the ages.

Wanyan Honglie was no exception. When he learned about the assassination list drawn up by Xin Qiji, he made careful arrangements for this list.

He was not worried about Wanyan Gang. What Xin Qiji didn't know was that as early as May of last year, the Jin Kingdom's military had already made plans to respond.

As the West Route Marshal of the Jin Army, Wan Yan Gang had many soldiers and generals, as well as the invincible Taiyi Hun Tian Xiang Formation. How could Chen Xuanfeng's four hundred flying tiger troops be able to assassinate him?

At that time, if Wan Yan Gang had not taken the initiative to sit in Chencang in order to instigate Wu Xi, he would have wanted to mobilize Wan Yan Gang to go to Zhongnan Mountain to suppress the bandits.

Of course, there is another reason why he failed to mobilize Wanyan Gang, and that is that he may not be able to mobilize the capable ministers of Wanyan Hongxi's line.

At the same time, it was precisely for this reason that he did not waste any time on Wan Yan Gang. He only strengthened the guards on Wang Weihan and himself. It would be an exaggeration to say that he had laid a trap.

Wanyan Honglie's plan was not only to protect himself and Wang Weihan, but also to capture Chen Xuanfeng and Cheng Jiang who came to assassinate them.

However, plans always failed to keep up with changes. After Nian He Na launched a trebuchet bombing last winter, Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng never showed up again. Even Qiu Chuji thought Chen Xuanfeng was dead and came to Yanjing to claim credit.

Although Wanyan Honglie was cautious enough and felt that he should not be too optimistic before discovering Chen Xuanfeng's body, Chen Xuanfeng never appeared again.

Especially when Shi Miyuan of the Song Dynasty sent a secret report confirming that Chen Xuanfeng was dead, Wanyan Honglie finally felt relieved. However, he still asked the people who were ambushing him and Wang Weihan to continue the ambush.

As the saying goes, you never go wrong with caution. Facts have proved that Wanyan Honglie's caution was correct. Just a month ago, the guards ambushing Wang Weihan's mansion captured Cheng Jiang who came to assassinate him.

Originally, I could really breathe a sigh of relief when things got here. Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng were dead, Cheng Jiang was arrested, and the three armies attacking the Song Dynasty were victorious. I could go with Wanyan Hongxi to attack the Mongolian tribes.

However, before leaving, bad news came frequently. First, the servants of the Eastern Route Army were arrogant and underestimated the enemy, and suffered several defeats at the hands of the Song Army Bi Zaiyu. Later, Pu Chazhen was defeated and fled back to Beijing, not only with

I got back the news of Wan Yan Gang's death and the disastrous defeat of the West Route Army, and even brought back a frightening news: Chen Xuanfeng was not dead!

Wanyan Honglie did not blame Pu Chazhen. Wanyan Gang died at the hands of Chen Xuanfeng, could Pu Chazhen still withstand it? Besides, Pu Chazhen was from his own lineage.

"Crimes other than war!"

Wanyan Honglie not only did not blame Pu Chazhen, but also excused him.

Yes, Chen Xuanfeng is already so powerful that he can conquer a city by himself and annihilate 10,000 people by himself. Who can defeat Chen Xuanfeng like this? What's more, he has swarms of bees to help him!

Who dares to say that Pu Chazhen is not good? If not, you go ahead!

What needs to be considered now is what should be done next.

Obviously, since Chen Xuanfeng captured Chencang, he would immediately capture Chang'an.

There is basically no need to think about retaking Chang'an, because Chang'an is surrounded by Qimen formations.

Although Pu Chazhen's understanding of the Qimen Formation is still at the stage of ghostly fighting against the wall, anyone who has experienced the Zhongnan Mountain Slaughterhouse knows how terrifying such a formation is.

Without the assistance of the descendants of Taohua Island, the city wall of Chang'an would not be visible at all unless fire was set to burn more than a dozen counties around Chang'an to the ground.

And even if the whole area around Chang'an is really burned, there is still no way to counterattack Chang'an City. How can you attack the city if you are stung by a bee in the eye before you can even set up the ladder?

So when Wanyan Honglie asked for a plan to unite Na and Qiu Chuji, the latter two thought about it and came to the conclusion that they could not counterattack for the time being.

Qiu Chuji said: "The quickest way is to wait until winter. Bees probably won't come out to sting people in the harsh winter."
