Chapter 724 Golden Crow Ming

Kunyang.

"The news from Zhanri is that he made a mistake."

Tian Yan took a sip of tea and felt a little unhappy when he heard the news.

Ever since Luo Wang was uprooted by Zhao Shuang in Guanzhong, although he still maintained top-level combat power, it was already far inferior to before.

After all, the real power of Luowang is not only the top killers at the top of the pyramid, but also the underlying intelligence network spread across the seven countries and beyond the Great Wall.

But now, this underlying intelligence network no longer exists.

"I see."

Tian Yan said calmly, without much emotion. The Six Sword Slaves were beside her, motionless, as if they were guarding Zhao Gao in the past.

Tian Yan looked at the evening scene with colorful clouds in the distance and said.

"it's time!"

At this moment, Six Sword Slave walked from Tian Yan's side to her, waiting for instructions.

"Meng Yi led the Mengshi cavalry back to Guanzhong. Nanyang County does not have enough troops at this time. The first step is to capture Yangcheng first."

Yangcheng is the only place to pass from Chenjun to Nanyang. This city is not big, but it is very important.

"Now that Wei and Chu have joined forces with Zhao, 300,000 troops are gathering towards Xingyang. The Huben army that has been in Yangdi has also been ordered to move the defense line north. The empire does not have so much energy to control here, and it is now time for us to capture Nanyang Great opportunity for the county.”

Luo Wang focused on conducting detailed investigations of military deployments in various places in Nanyang County beforehand, but the main focus was still on the large city of Wancheng.

Out of caution, Tian Yan still asked.

"What's the current situation in Yangcheng?"

"There are only three thousand defenders, and the general who defends the city is an unknown person."

"Nobody? What's his name?"

"Han Xin!"

The power of the world is surging, and heroes from all sides have appeared one after another. But Tian Yan had never heard of this name.

"What's the origin?"

"This man was born in the Jincheng Tiger Guard Army, and he first served as a halberd commander. Since Zhao Shuang ascended to the position of prime minister, all his subordinates, generals and generals have been reused to control key positions in the empire. Zhao Shuang is also in every army in the empire. However, this man has been unknown for many years and has never heard of any military exploits. He just entered the ranks of the Nanyang Army not long ago. Meng Yi put him in Yangcheng, presumably because he has no talent."

Tian Yan murmured, still feeling uneasy after all.

"The Kunyang army rose up, with 5,000 cavalry as the vanguard, followed by an army of 50,000, first to seize Yang City, and then to attack Wancheng. Six Sword Slaves, you first took the head of this unknown person to sacrifice to the flag."

"promise!"

…

Yangcheng.

Han Xin held the Hidden Dragon Sword and stood on the wall of Yangcheng, feeling the wind blowing and closing his eyes, feeling a little comfortable.

"Are you really free?"

There were complaints from the side.

Even though he was complaining, the sound was nice.

Han Xin turned his head and looked at Xiao Zhi, the current deputy leader of the Yin Yang family and his former acquaintance.

"You're here, just in time."

"I'm very busy. You came all the way to find me here, don't you say it's just to reminisce about old times?"

There are not many people in the world who can call the deputy leader of the Yin Yang family from Guanzhong here with just one letter.

"That's natural."

Han Xin's answer made Xiao Zhi frown and feel unhappy.

Can't it just be a reminiscence of old times?

"I really don't know what you are doing here? None of my father's old troops are rushing to Xingyang to gain military exploits. At the worst, they have to choose a quiet and wealthy place to station. You are the only one who would go to this kind of place. Place to run.”

In a city located on the border of war, the responsibilities of a defender are very important. If you are not careful, you will be punished by the superiors, which can be described as thankless.

"War is coming!"

"War?" Xiaozhi was a little surprised after hearing this, "Where does the war come from here? Now that all the princes' armies are concentrated in Xingyang, and the rest are also in Nanchu, will there be war here?"

"I didn't understand why Your Majesty asked me to come here at first. But when I got here, I finally understood. Just east of this road, there is an interesting opponent."

"interesting?"

"Like me, she is a person who is proficient in the art of war. She understands that those who are good at fighting must first be good at hiding their troops. Therefore, in Kunyang, there is definitely not only the 20,000-strong army of the Zhu Family Shennong Hall."

"Are you talking about the peasant hero Tian Yan? Have you met him?"

Han Xin shook his head.

"Although I have never met her, I know her very well."

"You know a lot about a woman you've never met?"

If someone else had said this, Xiao Zhi would definitely think he was crazy. She was already used to it being the person opposite her, but she still didn't feel very happy.

"Yeah, so, I want you to help me!"

"help you with what?"

"protect me!"

After hearing this and looking at Han Xin's hot and serious eyes, Xiao Zhi lowered her head and blushed.

"Although I said I would protect you when I was young, but now that we have grown up, how can we let girls protect boys..."

Before Xiaozhi finished speaking, she heard the sound of a dragon roaring.

The dragon sword is out of its sheath!

Xiao Zhi's expression changed, and in an instant, a strange murderous intention came over the city wall.

This strange killing intention contained six sword intentions.

This damn Han Xin, the protection he talks about is protection in a literal sense.

Xiaozhi immediately regained her composure, formed seals with her hands, the energy of Longyou emitted, and the sound of the three-legged golden crow could be heard. Accompanied by the roar of the hidden dragon, it was in a stalemate with the six sword intents, and had the upper hand.

…

Xingyang.

"Your Majesty, the pre-war arrangements have been completed. But I am still a little worried."

Beside Zhao Shuang, Zhang Liang said.

"But it's about Guanzhong?"

"With Xiao He here, there won't be any big trouble in Guanzhong. I'm worried about Nanyang."

The matters in Guanzhong are of great importance, and even those in important positions such as Zhang Liang dare not get involved too much.

"Although soldiers, horses, and supplies from all over the Central Plains are now being mobilized to Xingyang, I still feel that there is something strange over there in Kunyang. That woman Tian Yan is not a peaceful person."

Zhao Shuang smiled softly and waved his hand.

"Don't worry, Zifang, there won't be any problems in Kunyang."

But now that the elite forces of the Nanyang Army have returned to Guanzhong to quell the chaos, Nanyang County's defenders are insufficient. If something happens to Kunyang and a sudden blow occurs, Nanyang may not be able to withstand it?

Why is Zhao Shuang so sure?

"Prime Minister, when the Hu Ben Army's cavalry were patrolling outside, they discovered something unusual in Kunyang. Five thousand cavalry troops are marching towards Nanyang at this time, followed by an army of 50,000 troops."

At this moment, the palace staff brought over the military report submitted by the scout.

"That woman Tian Yan has accumulated a really rich family fortune!"

Zhao Shuang's sigh made Zhang Liang feel slightly surprised. He looked at Zhao Shuang's back, and he seemed to have already anticipated what might happen.

"Zifang, have you ever heard that the more the better?"
