After the meeting, the matter was temporarily settled.
Wen Chengqi, Gu Huajiang's troops, and the Lin Kingdom navy, a total of 180,000 troops, went out to sea to pursue.
Overland, Sha Kingdom, Rong Kingdom, Gaolin, Lin Kingdom, and the four-nation coalition forces totaling 250,000 people took the land route to Kuyan Island to intercept them.
In addition, some troops blocked the border between Yue and Lin, including sea routes.
Ensure that Yang Yunzhao will not receive firearms supplies from Luozhou.
It's all well planned and perfect.
Except for two problems.
The first is Zhuo Junyan, he is not dead, all victories are just tactical victories.
And another problem may be even more terrifying!
In the Second Battle of Luozhou, Luozhou suddenly received more than 200,000 troops, which devastated Izumo's main force.
】
This means that Luozhou already has the power to survive independently and resist the seven countries.
In other words, even if Zhuo Junyan dies, Luozhou can continue to exist on its own!
Even further expansion, push back!
Under such circumstances, is there any point in pursuing Yang Yunzhao?
After killing more than 20,000 people, is there any strategic value?
Nothing at all!
If the foundation does not move, the soul does not fall, and the key points are not removed, killing Yang Yunzhao and destroying the special forces is just a piece of flesh. It is meaningless except to anger the opponent.
In Gu Huajiang's tent, Wen Chengqi was drinking with him.
The two of them sighed.
Wen Chengqi said: "Sha Zonghan must be surrendering."
Gu Huajiang snorted coldly: "The old guy is very cunning. I owe him this eye. But he insists on pursuing me. What do you think is the purpose behind this?"
Wen Chengqi shook his head: "I don't know. Speaking of which, there is one thing that we have never known."
Hearing this, Gu Huajiang understood: "The secret of the sect and Zhuo Junyan."
Wen Chengqi poured wine for Gu Huajiang: "There must be a reason why the sect hunted Zhuo Junyan. Combining the past history, we can also see some clues. Especially, the sudden appearance of the spiritual realm... Haha, the spiritual realm! I am Hong Yuanzhi.
For thousands of years, I have only heard legends about the spiritual realm, but not seen people in the spiritual realm. What happened? As soon as Zhuo Junyan appeared, the spiritual realm suddenly appeared. A few days ago, there were meteors falling first, and then there were extraordinary lights. Don't you think it's strange?
?"
Gu Huajiang took a sip of wine and said, "The heads of the major sects should know about this. But they won't tell."
Wen Chengqi smiled: "That's not important."
"Then what's important?"
"Why does Sha Zonghan persist in pursuing him?"
Gu Huajiang looked at him.
Wen Chengqi said: "I have studied history, studied those who were hunted by the sect, and studied Zhuo Junyan...I found that after removing some possible wrong targets, these people have a common characteristic."
"What?"
Wen Chengqi came over and said: "To intimidate the powerful, swallow the territory and split the soil, attack the city...but not occupy the land!"
Gu Huajiang was stunned: "That's not right. I've also researched it. Some people took advantage of it."
Wen Chengqi smiled and said: "Yes, it is true that some people raised a rebellion, attacking the city and occupying the land. But it is like going to a brothel to look for flowers. Some people's purpose is women, and what they want is women. After having fun, they have fun
After they arrived, they left. But some people, after going there, would also order wine and food, listen to a few songs, have a drink among the flowers, talk to each other over wine, sing about the wind and the moon..."
Gu Huajiang suddenly realized: "The main purpose is to attack the city, and the land is incidental. Some people can just protect the capital, and some people have to look forward to Shu!"
"People are different, but people like Zhuo Junyan have something in common. They remove the branches and leaves and only look at the essence. That is to attack the city without occupying land, and to intimidate the right people!"
Gu Huajiang was puzzled: "The question is why is this so?"
Wen Chengqi shook his head: "I don't know, but the important thing is that if you understand this, you will understand their problem."
"You mean..."
"Time! Divide the troops! Zhuo Junyan is the same as those before him. They all seem to have some kind of time problem. They must spread their reputation to enough areas within a certain period of time. I don't know why they do this.
, but I know that they must do this! And knowing this, look at Sha Zonghan’s behavior again..."
Gu Huajiang's heart trembled: "Sha Zonghan insists on pursuing, not to pursue, but to prevent us from destroying Zhuo Junyan's actions! Damn it, he is helping Zhuo Junyan!"
Wen Chengqi nodded and sighed: "I found out too late. Zhuo Junyan did this several times and made excuses. Buying food, asking for people, disbanding the martial arts world. But these were all pretexts. He just wanted to complete the division of troops.
Road, intimidating all parties. I don’t know what the consequences will be if he fails to do so, but I guess that a person like Zhuo Junyan, who has suddenly emerged from the army, must have support. This support can make him powerful, or it may bring him pressure."
Gu Huajiang naturally understands this: "Just like relying on others to get to the top, you also need to pay!"
Wen Chengqi smiled: "Yes! That's it! And I guess Sha Zonghan knows about it."
"Damn it!" Gu Huajiang slapped him and smashed the wine glass in his hand: "The old man was deceived by the news of Zhuo Junyan's death that I made, so he dealt a cruel blow to Yang Yunzhao. In the end, Zhuo Junyan was not dead. He must think
A way to save everything. Now it doesn't matter whether Yang Yunzhao dies or not, but he is dragging us to pursue Yang Yunzhao... Yes, if it is according to your statement, then Luozhou will attack Izumo..."
Wen Chengqi nodded: "It is also a necessary part of Zhuo Junyan. And not only that! Izumo's 400,000 main force was lost in Luozhou, and Haiyuanzong was almost wiped out. There is no need for so many people against Fuyun. There are enough firearms.
Fifty thousand people are enough. Where will more people go?"
Gu Huajiang trembled: "Wuguo?"
Although he is not a good person, he has his own bottom line.
He really doesn't want the country of Ukraine to suffer.
Wen Chengqi sneered: "Now, do you still think that he is determined to go against Zhuo Junyan?"
Gu Huajiang's eyes showed a fierce light: "This old guy is so cunning! But the problem is that we don't have any evidence!"
Wen Chengqi sighed: "Yes. There is no evidence, and it is just speculation. If you really question him about this, you will play into his plan. Even if he imprisons you on the spot, he will have a reason, and even your subordinates will
It’s hard to support. If Yang Yunzhao condemns another assassination, he will kill him on the spot!”
Gu Huajiang felt uncomfortable: "So... there is no hope?"
Wen Chengqi sneered: "How can there be no hope? Have you forgotten what I just said? Zhuo Junyan's people have a time limit! They will probably have to conquer all the countries in a short time, and their troops will dominate all parties, even a few
Not even one place can do it! Two hundred thousand is not enough for such a demand! So Zhuo Junyan fought against the major sects, Yang Yunzhao fought against the imperial court to contain the main force, and Luozhou took the opportunity to sweep in. But they have to divide their forces! They have to spread them very thinly.
Disperse! Wu State, Rong State, and Gaolin only have 100,000 troops. As long as the country is willing, we can pull out millions of troops! If they dare to divide, we dare to destroy them! This is the last chance to deal with him. As long as
Destroying his goal..."
Wen Chengqi didn't say any more.
Gu Huajiang started laughing.
He knew what he had to do.
In fact, even now, they don't know the consequences of destroying Zhuo Junyan's mission.
May be fatal, may not be fatal.
But a great person is: I see the direction and the opportunity, so I dare to place a bet!
Destroying your mission progress is my method.
I don’t need the outcome of this shop if I win, because I bet!
Big gamble!
Unlike other generals, Wen Chengqi and Gu Huajiang both greatly offended Zhuo Junyan.
There is no turning back for them, so they must try their best to get rid of Zhuo Junyan.
If I can't defeat you on the battlefield, I will stumble behind your back!
!
With insufficient information, Wen Chengqi and Gu Huajiang found a way to threaten Zhuo Junyan on their own.
Neither Zhuo Junyan nor Tang Ning realized this.
Tang Ning was planning an all-out attack, and Zhuo Junyan forced the major sects to continue to pursue him so that they could not disrupt Luozhou's military operation. He thought he had solved the problem and was now working hard to recover from his injuries and study for promotion.
