Not only Bai Yutian, but others were also shocked.
Now that they looked back and thought about it carefully, they discovered the suspicion. There was no trace of any contact with the Shanu Kingdom in Bai Junzhan's home, and Bai Junzhan had been staying in Qizhou City and had never gone out at all.
What's more, since Bai Junzhan is cooperating with Tiejiantang, why does Tiejiantang not know much about such a big thing, or even directly participate in it?
As for that mysterious force, they don't know what it is called. Those people are so mysterious that they never say their names.
However, in order to convince the Shanu Kingdom, the mysterious forces provided a lot of intelligence and news about the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was of great benefit to the Shanu Kingdom's continued advancement.
"Your Majesty, could that mysterious force be Fu Zhou?" Dian Wei reminded in a low voice.
"Fu Zhou." Bai Yutian nodded, not ruling out this possibility.
The so-called top forces in the world, no matter how powerful they are, would not dare to go against the Zhou court.
Even the Jinjia Sect and Qishan Sect had the support of Tianjia behind them, and they also joined the Tianyi Army.
With such abilities and means, there are only two forces in Dazhou, namely Tianjia and Fuzhou.
And Tiejian Tang belongs to Fuzhou, so Fuzhou is the most suspect.
Bai Yutian immediately became wary. If Fu Zhou had such strength, would they have a foot in this war?
If Fu Zhou really joins, will there be new changes in the battle situation?
"Where is the Quicksand Valley and how powerful is it?" Bai Yutian then asked.
He hesitated for a while, looked at Bai Yutian, shuddered, and finally told everything.
"I don't know the specific strength of Liusha Valley. Liusha Valley is controlled by four major tribes, and its interior is the core secret of Shanu Kingdom."
"Every year, hundreds of children from various tribes in the Shanu Kingdom are selected to join the Quicksand Valley, and at most, only a dozen of these children can come out of the Quicksand Valley alive. Anyone who comes out of the Quicksand Valley will be affected by the sand.
The high-level officials of the slave country attach great importance to them, but ordinary people don’t even know their identities.”
"The owner of Liusha Valley is called Liusha. No one knows his true identity. I only know that the witch god, one of the ten heroes of Shanu, is Liusha's disciple and his only disciple."
"..."
Mankong trembled and told all the information he knew. Finally, he looked at Bai Yutian and said, "This is all I know. Give me a break."
He knew that he had no way to survive, so he wanted to die.
Bai Yutian didn't make things difficult for him anymore. He glanced at Dian Wei and motioned for Dian Wei to take action.
"Dianwei, please continue the investigation and find out all the traitors." Bai Yutian said in a deep voice.
The Xiliang army was destroyed because of traitors, and the Zhou army needed to be re-defended.
Therefore, Bai Yutian attaches great importance to the investigation of spies and will never tolerate any spies.
And the Dragon Guard under him is just suitable for the task of investigating the traitor.
Dianwei nodded and was about to leave when he heard a shout from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Shanu Kingdom has come to Zhoucheng."
A soldier hurriedly ran in and said.
"How many people came?"
"I don't know, there are probably more than 100,000 people."
Bai Yutian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then led Dian Wei, Zhao Chuxue and others towards the city wall.
Xishengzhou can be said to be the center of the five states in the Western Wilderness. If you capture Xishengzhou, you can control the entire Western Wilderness.
However, the five states of Xihuang are bordered by the Shanu Kingdom. Now that Shanu Kingdom is strong and advancing, the current Xihuang is no longer the Xihuang of the past.
Moreover, Dazhou had no follow-up reinforcements and could not respond to Liangzhou.
Therefore, even if they occupy Xishengzhou, they cannot control the entire Western Wasteland.
The peak of the Great Zhou was fifty states, but now there are only twenty-three states in the Great Zhou. There are also ten isolated states in the southeast. The territory actually directly controlled by the Great Zhou is only thirteen states.
Many state cities are actually relatively small, and the scope of their control is also very small. After the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, many princes were enfeoffed, causing chaos in the territory of the Zhou Dynasty. Some small cities even formed a state, which was very unreasonable.
Bai Yutian has always wanted to reorganize the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but unfortunately he has never been able to do so.
When Bai Yutian rushed to the city wall, he saw the Shanu army gathering in the distance.
"His Majesty."
When everyone saw Queen Bai Yu, they immediately saluted respectfully.
"What's going on now?" Bai Yutian asked with a frown.
"Your Majesty, the army of Shanu Kingdom is camping fifty miles outside the city."
"According to the spies' reports, they should have arrived at 150,000 people, and there is currently no sign of an active attack."
Although there is some pressure on them, it will not be easy to capture Xishengzhou City with just these 150,000 people.
"Yin Xi, what do you think?"
Yin Xi was brave and resourceful, and was Xiao Li's deputy. When guarding Jiangcheng, the Zhenxi Army was led by Yin Xi.
"Our army has a large number of people. They will definitely not choose to attack by force. I estimate that they will surround us instead of attacking and consume us." Yin Xi analyzed.
As long as the Shanu Kingdom is not stupid, they will not attack the city recklessly.
"However, the food roads used by our army to transport food are in danger."
Xiao Li led 80,000 people to the expedition, but they only brought three days' worth of food and grass, so they still needed to provide Xiao Li with subsequent food and grass.
The Western Wilderness is desolate and there are few people. Many places cannot be cultivated, so they cannot obtain enough food and grass.
If the food road is destroyed, the situation of Xiao Li's 80,000 soldiers will be very dangerous.
"I am indeed worried about this problem. They came to attack the city just after Xiao Li's army was sent out. Isn't it a coincidence?" Bai Yutian murmured to himself.
Everyone was concentrating. It was indeed a coincidence. Could it be that among them, there was an undercover agent or a traitor?
Bai Yutian supported the city wall and shouted loudly: "An Chuhe!"
"The general is here." An Chuhe stood up.
"You lead 20,000 soldiers to Xinhuantuo. You must defend the food route at any cost."
Xinhuantuo is an important station in Xishengzhou and can control the entire grain road, so there can be no mistakes.
An Chuhe didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
Yin Xi, on the other hand, had a sad face. Once An Chuhe left, the power in the city became even more empty.
"Your Majesty, the general is worried that Shanu will attack the city and it will be in danger." Yin Xi said.
"What are you afraid of? There are still 100,000 troops in Xishengzhou City. Even if Shanu really attacks the city, he can definitely hold it."
Bai Yutian is not worried about the Shanu Nation attacking the city at all. Even if they attack the city, Bai Yutian is confident that he can defend the city.
There is another worry in his mind. In addition to the food route, there are also the remaining 30,000 troops of Shanu Kingdom.
Bai Yutian would not believe that these 30,000 troops just disappeared out of thin air.
"Keep an eye on Shan Nu. If there is any change, notify me as soon as possible." Bai Yutian reminded.
