The army at the southern end stalled in front of Dezhou City. Xiao Jingheng meant to bypass Dezhou City and change to the direction of Qixian or Yunzhou.
Chu Yunning's eyelids twitched and he counted the recent days. He couldn't figure out anything at the moment, but he still felt that even if they didn't attack the city, the chosen ones wouldn't live long.
"I'm worried that changing the direction to Yunzhou will bring disaster to the people of Yunzhou."
The point is not which city to attack, but to kill these people, as if they are setting up a trap.
Chu Yunning looked at the map carefully, as if something flashed through her mind so fast that she could not catch it.
"A Ning?" Xiao Jingheng called her.
Chu Yunning turned her face and looked at the surrounding mountains. She pointed and said, "There's something strange about this thing. It's like someone is deliberately guiding us to a certain place."
Jamel Xiao followed his gaze and was silent for a while.
"After we came back from the temple, I have been feeling restless. I always felt that something was going to happen. We are now entering a trap step by step."
She had the illusion of being stuck in a quagmire.
"You are too worried about Chu'er." Xiao Jingheng whispered to comfort: "Aning, if you are worried, I will send someone to protect Chu'er."
Chu Yunning pursed her lips tightly, while comforting herself that she was too worried. She calmed down for a moment and then said: "We have an army of 300,000 people that can be dispersed, and the Marquis of Changyang still has 300,000 people in his hands. In terms of military strength, Dongling can't compare at all.
If Dongling is determined to die, I'm worried that more innocent people will be involved."
There was fighting on the battlefield, but Dongling was simply a pervert! He was so vicious that he would not even spare his own people.
Extremely abominable!
Too many people were displaced because of the war, and she couldn't bear it. She always felt that she had committed too many sins.
"Your Majesty, let me think about it again." Chu Yunning always felt that this matter was a bit fishy and needed to be quiet.
Jamel Xiao nodded: "Okay."
After thinking for a long time, I still didn't get the clues I wanted, but it wasn't a problem that the army outside was stagnant. Lieutenants kept urging me.
There should be a clear explanation of whether to fight or to retreat. The more than 300,000 troops behind us cannot just wait.
But Chu Yunning had a firm look on his face: "Your Majesty, I don't recommend attacking the city immediately. Wait a little longer, stay where you are, or retreat to Yongcheng."
A woman's sixth sense is that she doesn't know what traps are waiting in front of her, and it doesn't make sense at all, so she would rather stay put.
"Is this appropriate?" Lieutenant General Li looked hesitant. He had already reached the city gate and hurriedly retreated. He really couldn't explain it.
Xiao Jingheng raised his hand to stop what Deputy General Li was about to say: "Everything is about safety. We will postpone the attack and return to Yongcheng first."
After hearing this, everyone did not dare to say another word, so Xiao Jingheng led the people and left the gate of Yongcheng in a mighty manner.
…
In the Dongling Palace, the black-robed Imperial Master and Xiao Jingyan were sitting opposite each other. There was a chessboard in front of them. One black and one white were fighting each other. The black piece looked very aggressive, while the white piece was always at a disadvantage, retreating step by step, and was almost about to be killed.
Surrounded with no way out.
In the thin line between life and death, the white man in black robe calmly continued to retreat. Xiao Jingyan smiled: "National Master, I win this round."
"We haven't reached the point of life or death yet, everything is unknown." The black-robed Imperial Master dropped another white seed.
Xiao Jingyan looked at the opponent as if he was determined to win, followed closely by another chess piece, but before it could land firmly, the guard suddenly broke in and reported to his superiors: "Your Majesty, the troops at the south end have withdrawn."
The black chess pieces landed on the chessboard, and they fell into a dead end. In just a moment, the situation on the chessboard was completely different.
"The troops at the southern end have withdrawn?" Xiao Jingyan frowned in confusion, as if he didn't understand.
The city of Texas was so close that they could take it with just a finger. Why did they give up so suddenly?
"Your Majesty, I was lucky enough to win this round." The black-robed Imperial Master said with a calm face and a slight smile.
Xiao Jingyan lowered his head and looked at the chessboard in disbelief. Sure enough, the black piece was trapped in a cocoon. It was obviously a bright future, but in the end, he was too conceited and was defeated by the opponent.
"Your Majesty, no matter what the current situation is at the South End, he will definitely walk into the trap you set for the South End."
The black-robed master grabbed a handful of white stones and placed them on the chessboard, stacking them into the shape of a small hill.
Xiao Jingyan was shocked, and after a long time he asked again: "National Master, if we withdraw our troops from the south, what will happen to the Nine Heavenly Evil situation in Dezhou City and Mu City?"
"The situation has been set in motion and we can't help them anymore." The black-robed Imperial Master counted with his fingers; "That child won't be able to hold on for much longer."
"Will Chu Yunning give up that child?"
"Absolutely not!" He had full confidence in this. As long as there was the slightest hope, Chu Yunning would not give up easily.
So Chu Yunning will definitely jump into that game.
Xiao Jingyan pondered for a moment and nodded.
Summer has arrived in the blink of an eye, and the scorching heat makes people a little impatient.
