The Era of Generals

Chapter 71: The news brought back by the lord

  The Lord of the City is back!

   West Cloud City Lord Zheng Yuanlong is the younger brother of Bo'an City Lord Zheng Yuanyun. Because of this relationship, after receiving emergency military affairs from Bo'an City, Zheng Yuanlong led the army to set off overnight, which shows his urgency in his heart.

   Fortunately, Chen Ze noticed the strangeness of the Poisonous Mist Forest only a day late and reported it to the West Cloud City, otherwise it would really not be possible to catch up with Zheng Yuanlong.

   At this time, the threat of the Poisonous Mist Forest has been lifted, and it seems that there is no need to chase Zheng Yuanlong back, but this is only an afterthought.

   When the poisonous fog army did not attack the West Cloud City, even Chen Ze couldn't estimate how many people the opponent had and what kind of siege plan he had.

After that, although West Cloud City was already secured, out of caution, even though the Zhu Yan Empire attacked Bo'an City this time, the breakthrough was most likely to be West Cloud City, so he continued to let Zheng Yuanlong rush back. There is nothing wrong.

After all, there are more than five thousand hidden in the forest of poisonous fog. This force is not removed, and it is always a threat to West Cloud City. With the help of Zheng Yuanlong’s army back to the defense, West Cloud City can be even more solid. At the same time Also has the ability to counterattack.

   City Lord's Mansion.

   "Are you Chen Ze?"

   Zheng Yuanlong Dama Jindao sits on the first seat of the hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, with a dark face and a pair of squinted eyes sharp and energetic, and he is looking at Chen Ze standing silently in the hall.

His figure is extremely tall, even if he is just sitting, he is a head higher than the entourage on the left and right of Shili. The bulging muscles all over his body even hold up the martial artist's strength and want to burst, and the pair seems to be brushed up with black paint. His sword eyebrows are so majestic and majestic.

The two brothers of the Zheng family, the eldest brother Zheng Yuanyun took the path of a minister, and now he is only a short distance away from the national teacher, but the second brother Zheng Yuanlong is a military commander, and now he has reached the post of superintendent. He can be regarded as a double master. .

   "I have seen Lord Santo!"

   Under Zheng Yuanlong's fierce gaze, Chen Ze was neither humble nor overbearing, and he answered in a deep voice.

   Zheng Yuanlong looked away from Chen Ze's face and turned to Mr. Jing who was sitting on the side.

   "Master Zheng, this time the West Cloud City is in danger, it is true that Chen Ze's contribution can be fully guaranteed, and the contribution is not small."

Mr.   jing leaned slightly to confirm Chen Ze's ability to defend the city, but he never looked at Chen Ze from the beginning to the end, and his expression was calm and unwavering, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

   Since Chen Ze left that day, Mr. Jing has never looked for him again.

   The other party did not come to look for him. Of course, Chen Ze was happy and quiet. Naturally, he would not take the initiative to run to the military plane to find him unhappy, so this is also the first time the two have met in the past few days.

   "Are you... Third Counselor?"

   Zheng Yuanlong glanced at the military ranks on Chen Ze's chest, and a trace of doubt crossed his face.

   But it was only a flash, and then his complexion sank, and he said coldly, "Since West Cloud City is no longer in trouble, what do you call the city lord to come back for?"

The meaning of    is quite blamed.

   Chen Ze reluctantly shook his head.

   The two in the hall, one is City Lord Xiyun, and the other is the chief officer of the military plane. They are the two most powerful people in the city.

   However, they are also the two most disinterested in West Cloud City.

   Mr. Jing blindly handed over the military power to Chen Ze because of Hua Lao, but the Lord of the City was not much better.

   The city he guarded almost fell into the ground. After he came back, he didn't say anything about Chen Ze, and even had cold eyebrows and bad looks.

   It is estimated that he will be able to come back, but also after receiving Chen Ze's original analysis, he did not dare to let West Cloud City become the breakthrough of the Zhu Yan Empire after the fall, and then take Boan City in one fell swoop?

   murmured inwardly, Chen Ze had to say: "The reason why the Lord of the City is urgently asked to come back is naturally that Xiyun City cannot be lost, and the other is because I don't want the adults to run in vain."

   "You mean..." Zheng Yuanlong said coldly: "As long as West Cloud City does not lose, the Zhu Yan Empire will not be able to attack Bo'an, so it will naturally withdraw its troops, so this city lord rushed to Bo'an City to make a trip for nothing?"

   "So what do you say about this?"

   The voice fell, he didn't wait for Chen Ze to talk, waved his hand, and a roll of kraft paper was thrown in front of Chen Ze.

   This roll of kraft paper was extremely thick, and it was already scattered when it was thrown in front of Chen Ze. From his perspective, he could see a scarlet and glaring blog in it.

"This is…"

When Mr.   jing saw from the side, his complexion suddenly changed. He rushed forward and picked up the kraft paper before Chen Ze. After opening it, his expression suddenly became a little ugly.

   "Flying Pigeon Biography, when did it arrive?"

   While passing the kraft paper to Chen Ze, he asked Zheng Yuanlong.

   "Just now, the lord of the city had just entered the city on the front foot, and the flying pigeon arrived at the back foot of the book!"

   Zheng Yuanlong snorted coldly: "Didn't you say that as long as you keep West Cloud City, Zhu Yan's army will retreat, so how do you explain this?"

The technology of Haotian Continent is far less advanced than that of Chen Ze’s previous life. If you want to pass messages between cities, you usually send scouts to deliver the information personally. Just like the last time Boan City sent out a request for help, people personally delivered it along the way. The hands of the city lord.

  Besides, it is the Flying Pigeon Biography.

Although it will be faster to use carrier pigeons to deliver messages, there are too many uncertainties in flying pigeons. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is very easy to be intercepted by the enemy, not to mention, it is difficult for carrier pigeons to guarantee success during long-distance flights. What accident happened.

   Therefore, if the commander wants to pass on the news, the safest thing is to send a rigorously trained scout, followed by the flying pigeons.

   Therefore, if you want to use the flying pigeons to deliver messages, either the enemy sieges the city and the scouts can’t leave the city, or the situation is so urgent that you can ignore the uncertainty of the flying pigeons.

   Taking the kraft paper, Chen Ze opened his eyes and frowned.

   Looking at the inscription on the paper, this urgent letter for help was actually sent from Boan City two days ago.

   So that means...

   At least two days ago, the Zhu Yan Empire continued to attack the city and did not intend to withdraw its troops.

   As the breakthrough point of this battle, West Cloud City is of extraordinary strategic importance. Even if the Zhu Yan Empire does not dare to risk being detected and send more troops here, the necessary surveillance will definitely be there.

   It was four days ago that Chen Ze broke through the poisonous fog army. To be precise, it was four and a half days ago.

For such a long time, the scout Zhu Yan, who was secretly monitoring the battle, notified the front battlefield with an emergency contact method similar to the legend of flying pigeons. Then the Zhu Yan Empire, who knew that the governor could not do anything, should have withdrawn its troops long ago, and it is meaningless to continue to consume its troops .

   But they didn't.

   Not only did it not, according to the kraft paper, the Zhu Yan Empire even sent another 200,000 troops to the city of Bo'an, as if it would not stop without taking Bo'an.

   But the question is, the Zhu Yan Empire is not afraid of waiting for multiple reinforcements in the city of Bo'an, which is firmly guarded, but instead makes dumplings for them?

   "Dare to ask Lord City Lord, can any of the cities you pass along the way send reinforcements to Bo'an?"

   Chen Ze frowned and asked instead.
