Chapter 168 Convergence
While Bo'an was attacking the city, a group of more than ten riders were galloping back.
It was Guo Zi and Du Jun who resigned from Zhang Chengwang, as well as more than ten other Xuanjia elites who came with them.
Du Jun and Guo Zi rode side by side. Seeing that Zhu Yan's soldiers were no longer around, Du Jun smiled bitterly and said:
"Lao Guo, you have really tricked me this time."
The pit is indeed a pit.
Chen Ze once said at the beginning that as long as Du Jun acted according to his plan, not only could he and his two brothers survive, but he could even make a great contribution to the Zhu Yan Empire.
But what I see now...
Perform meritorious service in the Zhu Yan Empire?
It seems like this. As long as Zhang Chengwang captures Bo'an City, Du Jun will naturally get a small share of this huge achievement.
Then what?
Du Jun was not a fool. He knew very well that the reason why Zhang Chengwang was able to capture Bo'an City was all due to Chen Ze's calculations.
When they came to Zhang Chengwang and said those words, weren't they hoping that Zhang Chengwang would make the decision to attack the city?
In other words, it is Chen Ze who is luring Zhang Chengwang into Bo'an City!
Why did he do this and what his purpose was later? Du Jun didn't know this, but he could imagine that after spending so much effort to let Zhang Chengwang enter the city, Chen Ze didn't really want to hand over Bo'an City.
Give way.
Zhu Yan's army that captured Bo'an City is actually in a bad situation!
So what will happen to this guy who brought false information?
Guo Zi chuckled and said, "Didn't you make a meritorious service?"
"What happens next is your coach's business. Even if something happens, it is the result of his improper decision-making. What does it have to do with you?"
"You brought back the information that Zhu Yan's army captured Bo'an City. Isn't that great?"
Du Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly. Judging from the current situation, this is indeed the case, but this matter cannot be taken out alone, right?
"Okay!"
Guo Zi slapped Du Jun on the shoulder with a careless slap, almost knocking him off his horse. He said proudly: "If you are really worried, let me tell you, you might as well turn against me!"
"What's wrong with Lao Shizi's Zhu Yan Empire? You've seen what my eldest brother is capable of. I think you might as well join my eldest brother's account. You will be indispensable for all future glory and wealth!"
Du Jun was silent.
To be honest, perhaps the only way to survive for him and his brothers is to seek refuge with Chen Ze.
And as Guo Zi said, Du Jun was really shocked by Chen Ze's ability.
From the moment he was caught by Chen Ze, Du Jun knew that Chen Ze was just a counselor, and his military rank was so low that he could be ignored.
But he was just a counselor. At that time, at the supply line in Xichuan City, the troops under Chen Ze's command had already exceeded the number of soldiers that one counselor could secondment.
This may also be said to be forced by circumstances.
But so what?
Du Jun knew that Chen Ze had been planning everything today since then, and the most important part of it was to turn Bo'an City into an empty city.
A little counselor ran to the Lord Bo'an and said, "Let's abandon the city!"
You're lucky if you don't get hacked to death.
But Chen Ze actually did it!
This alone was enough to shock Du Jun. He could not imagine how Chen Ze persuaded the entire Bo'an City to withdraw their troops.
But having said that, it seemed that he didn't need to know in such detail, and the path Guo Zi pointed out to him really moved Du Jun's heart.
Since it is obvious that the Zhu Yan Empire cannot stay any longer, it might as well be...
"This... let's take a look again."
Du Jun was interested, but he didn't agree. Instead, he laughed first.
I am really scared of being cheated.
If there are any more changes, Du Jun estimates that it will be difficult for him to turn around.
Everyone said no more. With the pass token given by Zhang Chengwang in hand, they did not encounter any obstacles along the way. This run covered more than forty miles.
It had been almost half a day since Zhang Chengwang ordered the siege, and Guo Zi and others, who were far away from the rear of Zhu Yan's army, gradually slowed down.
They don't know the exact meeting point.
In fact, at the beginning, Chen Ze didn't know where he would cross Bo'an City, so he just asked Guo Zi to find an opportunity to go to the rear of Zhu Yan's army after finishing his work, and to survey the enemy's situation along the way.
There was no trace of the enemy now, but they still had no idea where Chen Ze was.
Fortunately, Guo Zi didn't know, but Chen Ze knew everything.
Ever since Guo Zi left Zhang Chengwang, Chen Ze, who had been observing the map, noticed it and sent Chen Ming and his people to meet him. Not long after, the two parties had converged at one place.
"Brother!"
Chen Ming led him to where Chen Ze was stationed. A long way away, Guo Zi saw Chen Ze coming out of the dense forest. He immediately laughed and urged his horse forward.
His walk to Zhu Yan's base camp seemed uneventful, but in fact it was extremely dangerous. If one of them could not handle it well, he might be in danger of life or death. At this time, he suddenly returned to his team to see his brother, Guo Zi.
There is infinite kindness in my heart.
Chen Ze smiled and watched Guo Zi, Meng Yang and others quarreling together. He also nodded to Du Jun who was a little at a loss and said with a smile: "I didn't lie to you, did I?"
It was okay not to say this, but once he said it, Du Jun choked up and opened his mouth, but he could only respond with a wry smile.
"Let's talk about our business later."
Chen Ze could probably guess what the other party was thinking, but he didn't have the slightest sense of cheating anyone. Instead, he said hello, and Xu Qing went to gather the 30,000 elite soldiers who had finished their rest.
Then he said to Guo Zi: "How is the strength of the troops along the way?"
Through the map, he could see whether there were Zhu Yan soldiers stationed along the way Guo Zi came, but he could not see the opponent's troop deployment, so he asked this question.
Guo Zi didn't hesitate. When he came along the way, he kept Chen Ze's instructions in mind and kept what he saw in his heart. Then he talked to Chen Ze like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
While listening, Chen Ze was writing and drawing on the march map. After Guo Zi finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Du Jun and a dozen other Xuanjia elites who had returned together. Seeing that no one had anything to add, he clicked.
Nodding, "Very good, now it's time for us to play!"
His eyes turned back to the bottom of Bo'an City.
Click!
After the stormtroopers slashed with all their strength, the fine iron chains connecting the suspension bridge finally broke!
And this is the last chain connecting the suspension bridge and the city wall!
boom!
As everyone watched with surprise or joy, the huge suspension bridge, which weighed hundreds of thousands of kilograms and could withstand the passage of large troops at the same time, finally collapsed to the other side of the moat.
There is no longer a barrier between Zhu Yan’s army and Bo’an City!
"Brothers, follow me and rush!"
Chapter completed!
