Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 592: Falling Sick Again

The 1,000 cavalrymen of the Zhenxi Army were finally surrounded and killed by the 40,000 Black Scarf Army.

A leader of the Black Scarf Army rode over, separated the soldiers, and looked down at Zong Huan's body which was almost chopped into pieces.

"Go, clean up the battlefield and count the casualties."

Not long after, a soldier delivered the battle report data.

The leader of the Black Turban Army took a look and gasped as if he had a toothache.

"Fuck, why did so many die?"

The soldier who was compiling the statistics lowered his head and whispered.

"General, fifteen thousand dead and three thousand one hundred wounded."

"Isn't this more difficult than us?"

The Black Scarf Army has always been known for being difficult to deal with, but who would have thought that this time they would encounter someone even more ruthless.

The leader stood there for a while, then just waved his hand.

"Cut off his head and prepare for the next battle."

Since General Qiu has set a trap, they must proceed to the next step according to the plan.

The 40,000 Black Scarf Army and the 20,000 Palace Army were divided into two parts, following behind the Zhenxi Army and slowly advancing forward.

They were not in a hurry, just waiting to form a pincer attack with the 40,000 Black Turban Army in Ji County.

Because there were chariots in the front half of the team, the Zhenxi Army marched very slowly.

I only walked a little over 150 miles a day.

The engineering battalion in front is working hard to repair the road ahead so that tanks can pass smoothly.

The cavalry units that had cut off the rebels' food supply routes in various places also came to join them one after another.

The rebels followed slowly for more than ten miles behind.

On the third day of the march, the main force of the Zhenxi Army had arrived a hundred miles away from Ji County.

Li Donglai was completely desperate. No soldiers had returned yet. Zong Huan's army must have been destroyed long ago, with not a single one left.

Just think about it and you will understand: 40,000 Black Turban Army surrounded and suppressed 1,000 cavalrymen.

How can I escape?

A scout from the front reported that 40,000 black scarf soldiers were waiting in full battle formation outside the city of Ji County.

The 50,000-strong Zhenxi Army was sandwiched between the 100,000-strong rebel army.

During the three or four days of marching, the situation of the decisive battle between the two armies had already reached Kyoto City.

King Fu in Lindu City was also nervously waiting for the outcome of the decisive battle.

Night falls in Kyoto.

Not only Emperor Zhao Zhen did not sleep, but Prince Rui Zhao Xun also stayed in the study all night, although he was holding a book in his hand.

But I couldn't read a single word.

Zhao Zhen was circling in Chengde Hall, followed by the eunuch Zhu Qisheng. It was unknown how many times they had circled.

Grand Tutor Wan, Zhao Wenqi, Jiao Sanqiang, and military advisor Luan Shui.

Several people stayed in the command center, holding tea in their hands and sipping it intermittently.

Ju Chaoyue and Wei Ming climbed onto the city wall, sat between the battlements, looked at the endless darkness ahead, and prayed silently in their hearts for the victory of the Zhenxi Army.

When the last battle report came into the hands of the big guys.

All the bigwigs in Kyoto City felt a little desperate.

The 50,000-strong Zhenxi Army was blocked at the gates of Ji County by 100,000 rebels.

Zhao Zhen threw the battle report in his hand to the ground and shouted loudly.

"What's going on? Isn't Lin Feng a military genius? How did he get the war to this point?"

He couldn't bear the anxiety in his heart.

"Come, summon Prince Rui and Grand Tutor Wan to come see me."

Master Wan also received the battle report. He felt complicated. He hoped that Lin Feng would be defeated, but he also hoped that Lin Feng would win.

If Lin Feng lost, there would naturally be some light on his face.

This indirectly proved the strength of the rebels, not that Wan Quan was incompetent.

However, such an ending also foreshadowed the end of Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Dazong Dynasty, and with it the end of himself, the Grand Tutor who was second only to the emperor.

With such complicated feelings, Grand Tutor Wan came to Chengde Hall in the imperial palace.

Prince Rui was already standing beside the dragon desk, listening to the emperor muttering with a gloomy face.

Grand Tutor Wan took a deep breath and stepped into the hall.

"Your Majesty, may your Majesty be well and safe."

He can bow instead of kneeling.

"Come, come, Grand Tutor Wan, you've arrived just in time. Tell me, how did Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army end up in such a situation?"

Zhao Zhen had been venting his anger in front of King Rui for a long time.

Grand Tutor Wan coughed and said, "Your Majesty, Lin Feng fell for Qiu Jie's trick and was too eager to rescue his troops, thus falling into a desperate situation."

"Jedi? Old Master, do you also think this is a Jedi?"

"Your Majesty, the 100,000 rebels have trapped the 50,000 Zhenxi Army in the middle. Alas, the Zhenxi Army is powerless to turn the tide."

Zhao Zhen was anxious: "What should we do? Old Master, please think of a solution quickly."

Wan Quan shook his head dejectedly: "Your Majesty, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. Besides, there are still 100,000 rebels under the city. We cannot move."

Zhao Zhen's body went limp and he slumped over the dragon desk, looking hopeless.

"I had such high hopes for Lin Feng. I gave him a promotion and even gave him the eldest princess. How could he end up like this..."

Prince Rui stood coldly to one side, neither speaking nor moving.

He was also unable to predict how the situation would develop, although he had always had confidence in Lin Feng.

But faced with such a situation, I couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Alas, young man, you are still too impulsive."

These words were also spoken from the mouth of Prince Fu Zhao Zheng.

On the other hand, Zhao Zheng had a very happy face.

After several days of confrontation, Qiu Jie finally seized the opportunity and surrounded the Zhenxi Army in Ji County in one fell swoop.

King Fu was shaking the battle report in his hand.

"Mr. Lan, you are very smart. I was not wrong about you. Okay, okay, hahaha..."

Lin Feng has always been a big worry for him, and today it finally came to an end.

How could he not be happy?

"Your Majesty's fortune is long-lasting. He is the true emperor, and his power is unstoppable."

Blue Domain complimented further.

"Well, that's well said. Come, fetch me some good wine, so I can have a drink with Mr. Lan."

"This Lin Feng, made me spend all my efforts, but in the end he was defeated by me, hahahaha..."

King Fu drank two glasses of wine in a row.

"Come here, pass on my order. Tell General Qiu Jie to bring Lin Feng's head to me. I will reward you handsomely."

King Fu was venting his excitement to his heart's content in Lindu.

Luo Yunfei, the rebel general who was staying in the Kyoto Acropolis, also received orders from King Fu.

Let him prepare his three armies, and once Qiu Jie destroys the Zhenxi Army, immediately blockade the four cities of Kyoto.

This time, without external aid, Kyoto City will be completely doomed.

There was grief in Kyoto.

The hearts of those ministers who had just attended the court meeting suddenly hung in the air again.

It’s still a bit early to express your attitude.

Seeing that Lin Feng was surrounded, the Kyoto Imperial Guards were no match for the rebels.

Sooner or later, this court will be won over and replaced by Zhao.

Oh, should I fall ill again?

The entire city of Kyoto was in a panic. The people had just had a few full meals. Were they going to be trapped again?

Do you want to leave this troubled place early?

Many people are hesitating, one is facing life and death, and the other is reluctant to leave his hometown.

While hesitating and watching, everyone is looking forward to the outcome of the battle between the rebels and the Zhenxi Army.

At this time, the vanguard of the Zhenxi Army had arrived forty miles east of Ji County.

The cavalry came to report that the 40,000-strong Black Turban Army was less than ten miles away.
