The city of Ketan was blockaded.

Zheng Yuanyun didn't believe that Chen Ze didn't know the news, but this man pretended not to know and even sent people out to investigate the enemy's situation.

He's looking for a ghost!

Knowing that the outside has been blocked, isn't this just sending someone out to cause trouble?

Can……

Zheng Yuanyun rubbed his eyebrows and didn't quite understand Chen Ze's actions.

What is he going to do?

It's definitely not a breakout, and it doesn't sound like he wants to send people back to Anluo Province to report to General Luo's cronies.

If you want to go out, how can you go out in such a big way?

No matter how strong he is, Meng Yang is already very impressive if he can fight one against a thousand. Is it possible that he can still fight his way through thousands of troops and escape from the heavy army that blockaded Ketan City?

it's out of the question.

If Meng Yang really wanted to escape alone, Zheng Yuanyun felt that his army of more than two million people could commit collective suicide.

so……

"Send the order and intensify inspections at all city gates. If anyone is found to have left the city, they will be killed!"

With a flash of light in his eyes, Zheng Yuanyun shouted immediately.

The only explanation is that Meng Yang was using a cover-up method here. He was exaggerating here to attract his own attention, but on the other side, he secretly crossed into Chencang and took advantage of Meng Yang's trouble to sneak out of the city?

Zheng Yuanyun thought about it again and again, and believed that this was the most likely possibility, and it was also the reason why Chen Ze asked Meng Yang to cause trouble.

As for Mengyang...

"That Mengyang, you can let him go. All you have to do is guard the city bridge and prevent him from leaving. If you can't even do this, huh!"

His expression suddenly sharpened, "I'll see you soon!"

"yes!"

The messenger soldier was shocked and rushed to convey Zheng Yuanyun's instructions.

But after Zheng Yuanyun, who was thoughtful and determined, gave the sharp order, a sneer gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Chen Ze is taking action, which is good.

He deployed a large army outside the city of Ketan, but it is conceivable that the army could not stay here for too long. After all, the province of Nantes had not yet been captured at this time. Zheng Yuanyun's main purpose of coming here was naturally not just

Targeting Chen Ze alone.

Of course his goal was to capture the entire province of Nantes.

The reason why he is deploying his troops outside Ketan City now is because Ketan City is the closest main city to Fengqi Province. He distributes his troops here so that if Fengqi Province sends troops to help, he can make a timely response.

response.

On the other hand, it was precisely because he wanted to put pressure on Chen Ze and make him feel like he was a turtle in a urn, and he would take some drastic actions in a panic.

Zheng Yuanyun needed a reason to beat Chen Ze, otherwise it would still be unreasonable to execute an imperial general like this, especially when Chen Ze was accompanied by a Commander-in-Chief Luo.

As long as Chen Ze can keep his composure during this period, Zheng Yuanyun can only choose to take the province of Nantes first and then slowly control him. But if he can't keep his composure...

Although this kid has an outstanding mind, he is still a bit young and energetic. According to Zheng Yuanyun, Chen Ze is doing a lot of mistakes now. Instead, he is doing nothing. He has no good ways to deal with him.

After all, he is still too young.

Zheng Yuanyun sneered again and again. He was afraid that Chen Ze wouldn't move. Only by moving would he have a chance!

What Zheng Yuanyun didn't expect, no, it should be said that he didn't notice, was that on the top of his tent, there were two people silently watching his every move.

"This old boy is very sinister!"

On the top of the tent, if you don't look carefully, you won't be able to tell that there are two faint shadows that are almost integrated with the surrounding environment. One of them is gesturing to the other.

"Do you want to give him a try?"

Another asked, gesturing equally silently.

These two people were Gu Qingfeng and Zhang Hualin, two members of the beheading team that Chen Ze had painstakingly trained.

It was Gu Qingfeng who said Zheng Yuanyun was shady, and it was Zhang Hualin who asked if he wanted to come and made a beheading gesture.

Zheng Yuanyun guessed well. Chen Ze asked Meng Yang to run to the city gate and cause such a scene. The purpose was to disturb the public and create opportunities for Gu Qingfeng and others to sneak out of Ketan City without anyone noticing.

And entered Zheng Yuanyun's barracks.

Of course, this would not be like Zhang Hualin asked, do you want to come?

Is it really that simple, let Gu Qingfeng and the others find Zheng Yuanyun's whereabouts, kill him with a knife, and the matter will be solved?

impossible.

Zheng Yuanyun could not be unprepared for this. In other words, even if Chen Zezhen ordered Gu Qingfeng and others to kill him at this time, there is a high probability that it would turn into a situation where both parties would die together.

Zheng Yuanyun has been working hard in Anluo Province for so many years. It is impossible that he does not have a single die-hard loyalist. Before he ordered the siege, he would definitely explain to his die-hard loyalists. If he was assassinated in Nantes Province, he would be the first to be killed.

, it’s Chen Ze!

Of course, it is possible that people from the Zhu Yan Empire were behind this matter, but what does that mean?

Zheng Yuanyun's people are dead, so why bother thinking about it so much?

As for his last words, he would of course let anyone who would benefit from this matter be buried with him. Chen Ze would be the first to bear the brunt, and then the entire province of Nantes.

Although this is just a guess, Chen Ze will not take this risk, and he does not want to become Zheng Yuanyun's burial object.

For the sake of safety, he sent Gu Qingfeng, but he didn't want to kill Zheng Yuanyun, but wanted to get further first-hand information.

Although Chen Ze could see Zheng Yuanyun's troop formations exactly from the system map, this was not all.

He could see the deployment, but he couldn't see where Zheng Yuanyun's main force was, and he couldn't hear Zheng Yuanyun's targeted arrangements. Everything had to wait for Zheng Yuanyun to take action before he could realize it later.

to speculate on the other party's plans.

This is very detrimental to the Zhu Yan Empire.

Yes, what Chen Ze is considering right now is none other than the Zhu Yan Empire and Ouyang Lixing of Fengqi Province.

It is a fact that Ouyang Lixing sent troops to attack Zheng Yuanyun. This is the result that Chen Ze hopes to see, but what he does not want to see is that Ouyang Lixing cannot defeat Zheng Yuanyun.

To be honest, the military strength of both sides is currently equal, and no one has more advantages. As a result, Ouyang Lixing is actually still at a disadvantage.

First of all, most of his army was exhausted, and its combat strength was reduced by at least 20%. In addition, after Ouyang Lixing entered the province of Nantes, it was no longer the same as when he came to the province of Nantes before.

Entered the territory of his own empire.

If he needed to attack Zheng Yuanyun, he had to face the thick defenses of the three main cities in Nantes Province and attack the city with exhausted troops. This chance of winning was reduced by another 30%.
