At present, Ouyang Li Xingzi could not give in just because of Zheng Yuanyun's threat. Otherwise, why would he come all the way to Tianyuan City with such eagerness?

What's more, Chen Ze had told Ouyang Lixing through Chen Ming before that an army from Anluo Province had indeed entered Nantes Province, but that army was not Zheng Yuanyun's reinforcements, but Chen Ming's.

Ze's reinforcements.

Although both of them are generals of the Qingyang Empire, there are of course differences between them.

Chen Ze has made it clear that the reinforcements are his own. Ouyang Lixing believes that of course they will not be the reinforcements coming for Zheng Yuanyun.

Chen Ze is also about to take action.

Although Chen Ming didn't say it explicitly, Ouyang Lixing knew this very well. What he had to do now was to delay for a while.

So he no longer paid attention to Zheng Yuanyun's threatening words. Instead, he hooked his hand and motioned for his subordinates to bring him a chair. He sat down in a very comfortable posture, holding a cup of tea in his hand.

Youzai Youzai said: "Since none of us can persuade the other to retreat, then let's just leave it at that."

"If General Zheng is ready, he can start attacking the city now. I, the general, will take over."

"you……"

Zheng Yuanyun stared hard. He didn't expect Ouyang Lixing to be so ignorant. He snorted coldly: "General Ouyang, don't worry. I'm not here just to say these few words to you."

, since we can’t reach an agreement, it’s okay, then let’s see the real deal!”

With that said, he turned his horse's head and returned to the main formation.

When his subordinates see Zhenzhang, it is not because he, the general, comes to see him in person, but because his soldiers work hard for him.

"grown ups!"

After returning to the main formation, Ma Chong, the general who temporarily took over Xiao Du's scouting duties, hurried over and saluted Zheng Yuanyun.

"Stop talking nonsense, have you found out the situation?"

Zheng Yuanyun glared at him. He was obviously in urgent need of an outlet for the anger he had just received from Ouyang Lixing.

The general trembled and said quickly: "Yes, we have basically figured out the situation around Tianyuan City!"

It turns out that Zheng Yuanyun also had the purpose of using deception in his dialogue with Ouyang Lixing.

In the process of dealing with Ouyang Lixing, he also wanted to attract the other party's attention to facilitate his own hands to explore.

"explain!"

Zheng Yuanyun said coldly.

"Sir, we brothers have inspected the three walls of Tianyuan City. All of them have been built and expanded on the outside. There are also quite a few defenders at each city gate. It's almost like..."

He thought for a while and said: "It's like a turtle shell, making it hard for people to eat."

"snort!"

Zheng Yuanyun said: "You don't need to tell me this, Ouyang Lixing has been rushing for so long, doesn't he just want to set up the first line of defense in Tianyuan City?"

"This is!"

The general quickly added: "But there is one thing that is very strange!"

"Um?"

Seeing Zheng Yuanyun looking over, he hesitated for a moment and then said: "Sir, Tianyuan City is blocked on the main traffic road leading to the following two cities, but it is not completely built across the road."

Zheng Yuanyun nodded. Of course he knew the geographical location of Tianyuan City. It had to be said that this was a minor mistake when the city was first built.

From a purely military perspective, Tianyuan City would simply be located in the middle of the road, and passers-by could only pass through the city. This would naturally be better.

But it is a pity that Tianyuan City was built slightly off the road, even more than a hundred steps away from the official road, which left a gap for Zheng Yuanyun.

But at the beginning, this was not really a big problem.

The reason Tianyuan City was built on the side was because once a war broke out, the army would have to pass through the entire city to leave, which would be too troublesome.

After all, Tianyuan City is deep in the interior of Nantes Province, with dozens of cities blocking it in front, so the enemy cannot attack, and behind it is the neighboring province of his own empire, so there is no threat.

So the purpose of Tianyuan City's existence is actually to become a relay station for troop replenishment. Of course, it should be done as convenient as possible.

Leaving enough space for the army to march was the original consideration when selecting the site for Tianyuan City.

As a result, who would have thought that the Province of Nantes had occupied a large area of ​​the Province of Anlo back then, and even built three new main cities that still stand today. In terms of strength, the Province of Nantes is actually even stronger.

However, this stronger one was defeated in one blow, and now it is plunged into many crises.

This traffic artery, which was considered to facilitate the march of our own troops, has now become a convenience for the enemy's troops to march straight in. It has to be said that it is an irony.

Zheng Yuanyun had a map of the entire Nantes province, so of course he knew the terrain here, but at the same time, he also knew that Ouyang Lixing would not turn a blind eye.

So he didn't hold out much hope. After all, even Tianyuan City had been rebuilt and its defenses strengthened. How could the traffic thoroughfare that existed as an empty space be left to him to use?

But who would have thought that his subordinate's report would involve exactly this important road.

"What's weird about that road?"

Zheng Yuanyun asked after thinking for a moment.

"Sir, the young ones have carefully explored the surroundings of Tianyuan City. In addition to the strengthened defense of Tianyuan City itself, they did not deploy heavy troops on that important road, and they did not even set up a blockade!"

The temporary scout general replied.

"No card set up?"

Zheng Yuanyun's eyes flickered and he said thoughtfully: "Have you ever found out how it is possible that there is no defense there?"

"It's not like the other party has an ambush and you don't even know about it, right?"

He stared at his subordinate with suspicious eyes, and the doubt was obvious.

This man was not a scout, and there were very few real scouts in his army right now, and even less experienced ones like Xiao Du.

It's hard to say how much of the real situation this improvised scout team of ordinary soldiers can detect.

"this……"

The general was ashamed and said: "To be honest with you, I am also very suspicious that the other party has other plans, but the terrain of that important road is..."

He hesitated: "On one side of the road is Tianyuan City, and on the other side is a creek. The surrounding environment is completely unobstructed. Whether there is an ambush or not can be seen at a glance."

"Unless the people of the Zhu Yan Empire know how to escape from the earth and are all buried in the ground waiting for us, otherwise..."

He paused, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Otherwise, the villain dared to guarantee it with his head, and he didn't find any ambush in it!"

What he said was categorical and even tragic.

It's not that Zheng Yuanyun doesn't believe him. On the contrary, the person he can single out to be in charge of intelligence work at this time is naturally someone he trusts, but what he doesn't trust is the other party's detection methods.

But since he dares to say so...

"Come on, take me over there and take a look."
