Ketan City.

It is already five days later.

Ma Hui, who returned to garrison in Ketan City, no longer foolishly set up camp outside the city. It has to be said that his relationship with Chen Ze has improved a lot now, and after this period of time, he believes that

Chen Ze probably wouldn't dare to disobey Mr. Zheng's strict orders.

Moreover, Chen Zehao said that he had helped him before. Ma Hui believed that there was no need for such tension between him and Chen Ze anymore.

Therefore, after swapping military power with Huang Shi, he led an army of 200,000 back to Ketan City, and entered the city directly without further sealing off Ketan City.

Chen Ze also returned to Ketan City one step ahead of him, and everything seemed to be happening without incident.

Until Ma Hui received the instructions sent back by the fast horse on the front line.

According to the Kuai Malai newspaper, Master Zheng ordered him not to continue to blockade Ketan City, but to lead his 500,000 elite troops to the front line for support.

This instruction confused Ma Hui.

Half a million elite soldiers?

Where does he have 500,000 elite soldiers at this moment?

When Mr. Zheng asked him to build bridges and roads in Xilongcheng, he naturally had 500,000 elite soldiers at that time, but didn't he later exchange them with General Huang Shihuang?

After that, he returned to Ketan City, and according to the distance calculated, General Huang Shi should have joined Master Zheng by now.

So what does Master Zheng’s instruction mean?

Is it possible that General Huang Shi hasn't met Mr. Zheng yet?

But this isn’t right either!

Even if they didn't meet him, General Huang Shi's mighty army of 500,000 people should have encountered his own spies on the road. Doesn't Mr. Zheng know nothing about their movements?

They actually came to him again to ask for troops. How could he have 500,000 elite troops to mobilize?

At this moment, there are only 200,000 troops in Ketan City, and nearly 100,000 of them are Chen Ze's military power.

Zheng Yuanyun didn't know, but Ma Hui knew clearly. So far, the newly added reinforcements from Anluo Province were only one hundred thousand. How could it be said that if five hundred thousand were transferred to the front line, there would be half a million?

Ma Hui, who was full of doubts, could only take the messenger soldier to find Chen Ze.

How could he know that Chen Ze was planning all this secretly? He ran to find Chen Ze...

The messenger soldier would come to Ketan City, which was not beyond Chen Ze's expectation. He could even know the other party's movements along the way, but now there is no need to prevent the other party's message from being transmitted.

.

Through Zhang Hualin's perspective, Chen Ze could see clearly that in just these five days, Zheng Yuanyun was already like a bereaved dog, constantly retreating and giving up the city he had finally conquered. In just five days, he retreated while retreating.

Using the sounding arrow to convey the message, he directly abandoned the three cities closest to Tianyuan City and gathered all the soldiers stationed in the city together.

Even so, he only recovered 100,000 troops. Including his own, it is only 400,000 now, which is far from enough.

But in fact, Zheng Yuanyun had no pursuing troops behind him.

On the other side of Tianyuan City, Ouyang Lixing had no intention of pursuing Zheng Yuanyun, but instead commanded his troops to eat away bit by bit Huang Chengjian, who had been treated as an abandoned son in Tianyuan City.

Huang Chengjian did not choose to leave at the beginning, which doomed his final tragedy.

What Huang Chengjian never figured out until his death was that in order to keep the troops in his hands as much as possible, he had been trying to delay the other party's killing of his own soldiers, and also sent people to ask for help from Mr. Zheng.

But in the end, the news he got was that Lord Zheng had already retreated with the remaining tribesmen!

Then, when Huang Chengjian finished digesting this bolt from the blue and wanted to leave quickly, he found that he had no way out.

Tianyuan City is not completely closed, as Zheng Yuanyun guessed. The only remaining gate is the one on the right, near the troop transportation route.

As soon as Zheng Yuanyun withdrew, Ouyang Lixing issued an order to lead troops to bypass the city gate on the right. Of course, he was not chasing Zheng Yuanyun.

Just like Zheng Yuanyun knew that he had a trump card in hand, Ouyang Lixing also knew that once he pursued, the opponent would fight to the death and use heavy cavalry to countercharge him on the plain. After this wave was defeated, Ouyang Lixing would also know

I feel like I can't bear it.

They simply didn't touch him, but steadily captured Huang Chengjian's troops who were already in disarray and were just waiting for them to harvest.

In this way, the troops that Zheng Yuanyun can gather after the incident will be further reduced. Although he still occupies a large area of ​​Nantes Province, he only occupies it. If he wants to defend it, he will not be able to hold it at all.

Ouyang Lixing was not in a hurry at all, he didn't even look at Zheng Yuanyun, he just did what he could do in front of him to the best of his ability.

After all, this is the province of Nantes, and he is just coming to support from the province of Fengqi. Naturally, there is no need to spend too much of his troops for the province of Nantes.

In addition, although Ouyang Lixing did not say it, he was also guarding against another person.

That person is... Chen Ze!

No matter how happily they have cooperated so far, Ouyang Lixing will never forget Chen Ze's identity.

After all, this man is still a general of the Qingyang Empire. At present, it is just because everyone has a common enemy that they choose to cooperate.

So what happens after Zheng Yuanyun completely loses power, or is even defeated and killed?

After getting rid of this big enemy, will Chen Ze still have a heart-to-heart relationship with Ouyang Lixing?

In this way, he is no longer a member of the Qingyang Empire, but defected in the face of battle and became an internal agent of their Zhu Yan Empire!

Until now, Chen Ze has not expressed his intention to switch to the Zhu Yan Empire. Even if he expressed it, would Ouyang Lixing dare to believe it at this time?

Of course not!

Not only did he not dare, Ouyang Lixing also had to be more careful with Chen Ze.

After this cooperation, Ouyang Lixing discovered that this little co-leader who had been hiding behind the scenes was not simple at all. Although he also played a big role in it, he had to admit that if Chen Ze had not been dominant, Zheng

Yuan Yun would never end up like this.

This person is very scary, so it's better not to be an enemy of him.

This was Ouyang Lixing's evaluation of Chen Ze in his heart. He secretly made a decision. If Chen Ze never took any action, that would be it. He would never easily stir up trouble, especially when the Nantes province is still in turmoil.

Ouyang Lixing didn't want his hard-earned advantage to be lost because of an irrational move, so putting Zheng Yuanyun back was actually a good choice.
