Huiming Prefecture borders Shaokang Prefecture to the southwest, Daye Prefecture to the northwest, Linwu Prefecture to the north, Fengli Prefecture to the east, and Jin'an Prefecture to the south.

Before the Xia Kingdom incorporated it into its territory, it was also the place where the Four Wars were fought...

Although there has been peace for many years now, and the war has been completely neglected, the bloody spirit in Hui Ming's bones is still there.

Honggu City suddenly fell, and the war resources were plundered by the Qi army...Whether it was the flying eagle delivering the message, or the Qingcong parade on the Yutai, or even the personal statements of the Honggu City guards, all confirmed this news time and again. Indeed.

A Qi army somehow managed to sneak past Huyang Pass and entered the hinterland of Xia Kingdom...

The entire Huiming Mansion was in a turmoil in an instant!

After all, the Xia Kingdom once had the foundation of being a hegemon. Once it declined, its power was not extinguished. In Huiming Mansion, although there is a saying that "the best soldiers of Huiming are all in Huyang", the city guards in other major cities still maintain their strength.

A considerable degree of force.

Among the seventeen cities of Huiming Prefecture, except for Honggu City, which has fallen, and [Yun'er City], which is likely to be the next target of the Qi army, the remaining fifteen cities urgently mobilized troops and horses to leave the city and attack Huiming.

, Shaokang junction, in the shortest possible time, blocked all the space between the two cities of Honggu and Yun'er.

The reason why the cities of Huiming were able to react so quickly and complete the blockade in such a short period of time... was because Fan Ao, the Marquis of Xuanping in Daxia, had already left in time and came to Huiming in person!

But it is said that Fan Ao was a serious Legalist disciple and was born in Sanxing Palace.

As a disciple of the Palace of Punishers, he traveled around the world carrying thorns and swords. He achieved success in his studies and returned to the Xia Dynasty as an official. (Thorns are weapons for punishing people. Disciples of Legalism traveled with thorns on their backs to understand the law and not to take it lightly.)

His origin, his strength, and his honors are all undoubtedly high-level figures in the Xia Kingdom.

On the eastern front battlefield where the Qi army was fighting, it was the core of Xia Fang.

On the Eastern Front battlefield, under the auspices of Fengguo Gong Zhou Ying, and with the help of the national defense formation, the Qi army was firmly dragged into the eight cities in the north of Linwu in the early stage. The idea of ​​a quagmire of flesh and blood that Fengjie Mansion failed to achieve was almost impossible.

It took shape in Linwu Prefecture.

However, as the rear was suddenly attacked by war, the defense system that Zhou Ying had worked so hard to build fluctuated again and again. The eight cities in the northern part of Linwu Prefecture were finally broken through by the Qi army. While Zhou Ying rebuilt the defense line, he also quickly mobilized people to quell the internal troubles.

Two princes were dispatched at once!

They are Jin Ling, the Marquis of Anguo, and Fan Ao, the Marquis of Xuanping.

It should be noted that in this battlefield environment where flesh and blood are entangled, every powerful person in the divine presence is an indispensable force.

It can even be said that they are the cornerstone of Daxia's defense system, and they are like a ballast stone on this swaying dragon boat.

The two armies are facing each other, their generals are facing each other, and the stronger ones are keeping each other in check.

Zhou Ying sent two princes to the rear at once, so he would inevitably have to make more concessions on the front line. This also shows that he attaches great importance to the worries of his inner circle.

The Xia people would never want to see the story of Chu Liang replayed again!

Among them, Jin Ling, the Marquis of Anguo, personally led an army to attack Ximing City, the most critical city in the south of Linwu Prefecture, and personally suppressed the chaos in the south. (So he collided head-on with Chongxuanzun who was crossing the battlefield eager to win credit.)

Fan Ao believed that the small group of Qi troops that had circled behind the Xia army would never stay too long in the south of Linwu Mansion. After shaking the Linwu defense line and initially achieving the strategic goal, the Linwu rear area was more dangerous.

Where!

Among them, Pinglin Mansion is close to Xiangyou Mansion and behind the defense line of Tongyang City, which cannot be shaken by a small Qi army.

He was well aware of the abilities of General Huyang Pass guard, and he asked himself that even if he personally led a large army, there would be no way he could break through the pass in a short time, let alone this small Qi army on the move... Therefore

Huiming Mansion is also a safe place.

What he is worried about is Feng Li!

Fengli Prefecture is also adjacent to Linwu Prefecture, and Fengli Prefecture is a border county, next to Jin'an... Jin'an Prefecture is stationed to guard against the border troops of Liang State!

Once the rear of Jin'an Mansion is attacked, Liang Jun seizes the opportunity. The Liang people, who originally only wanted to intimidate and contain them, will act rashly even if they have no choice but to act rashly!

Fan Ao crossed the border alone and quickly rushed to Fengli. He wanted to calm down the danger before it arose and eliminate the misfortune before it happened. However, there was no trouble in the twenty-four cities of Fengli.

He even did not hesitate to use his spiritual knowledge to gain insight into several key points, but found no trace of the Qi army's entry.

At this time, news came that An Guohou was engaging the enemy in Ximing City, but his opponent was Zhongxuan Zun who came directly from the north of Linwu! From this point of view, the Qi army that was stirring up trouble behind Linwu Mansion

, like Chongxuanzun’s layout

- 1 - That makes sense.

Talented people like Chong Xuan Zun who became famous at a young age should have ambitions that match their talents.

Choosing Ximing City as his famous battle in the Qi Xia War was also a logical choice.

only…

Fan Ao felt uneasy in his heart.

He always felt that he seemed to have missed something.

Until on the way to Ximing City, preparing to join forces with Marquis An Guo to exterminate Zhongxuan Zun, I got news of the unusual movement in Huiming Mansion!

Only then did he realize where he had made a mistake.

The Qi army that stirred up trouble in the rear of the Xia Kingdom did not belong to Zhongxuan Zun, but had a cooperative relationship with each other! Its leader had an independent will and excellent battlefield vision, and every step he stepped on made people feel uncomfortable.

In this regard, he is a military genius who will never be inferior to Zhong Xuan Zun! In fact, this talent is the one who dominates the rhythm of the war!

Moreover, how did such a Qi army enter Huiming Mansion?

How to break through Huyang Pass?

Does touching mean death or surrender?

All kinds of bad situations were made possible because of this change, which made Fan Aoji break into a cold sweat.

Information on the battlefield is constantly changing, and the information cannot be communicated in time.

He can only make plans for the worst-case scenario based on existing intelligence.

He immediately withdrew and returned, with the dignity of a prince and the cultivation of a god, regardless of losses, he flew alone and could swim.

Immediately, a message was sent to the cities of Ming Prefecture, flying eagles and cavalry were released, and troops and horses in each city were urgently mobilized. The two armies were united and the three armies responded. They linked up the military formations, locked the passes and sealed the roads, and quickly formed a huge formation.

In the pocket, the whole space between Honggu City and Shaokang Mansion, within three days of a rapid march of elite soldiers like the Zhenguo Army, was blocked.

He tried to dig out the sore in the heart of the heart before it could fester, but he raided many places, and all he captured were the Honggu City guards who were being driven around. Not even a shadow of the Qi army could be seen, as if

It was not an army of 3,000 men, but just three or two extraordinary monks who had joined the guild to spy on the military situation. At this moment, they seemed to be flying into the sky and escaping from the earth.

Even if he really escaped from the ground... the fluctuations of Taoism in large-scale military formations should not escape the capture of the Yuan-seeking dogs.

where is the problem?!

"Did you see that eagle?" Lying in the col, Zhong Xuansheng piled a pile of grass on his body, thinking it was a cover, and squinted his eyes to look into the sky.

There was a thin and fierce goshawk flying across the sky.

Jiang Wang glanced lightly: "Shall I kill him?"

"You can't kill." Zhong Xuansheng said in a casual tone: "Kill us and our whereabouts will be exposed."

The isolation of long-distance communication means is a kind of interference that acts on the level of rules. Countries have different means, but in essence they have the same goal. For Qi State, it was completed by Ruan Yuan on the basis of Xingli. For Xia State, it was Yu Liyang who borrowed it.

The power of national power.

Under normal circumstances, there are endless extraordinary means, but there is no end to them. When it comes to techniques, one can only guard against one or the other.

Taking this flying eagle with the blood of a demon beast as an example, it is not difficult for a monk who is proficient in controlling beasts to attach vision to it.

If there is no interference, a monk with sufficient strength can spread out hundreds of flying eagles, enough to cover the battlefield.

But in a state of war, the rules of long-distance communication were cut off, and as a result of the extraordinary monks using flying eagles as eyes,

It's impossible to get a long-distance view at all.

Therefore, in a real war, the flying eagle can only play the most primitive function of transmitting messages. The flying beasts specially cultivated by the Beast Control Academy are of course specialized in transmitting messages and can fly fast and high, but extraordinary strong people want to

It's really easy to intercept and kill.

However, being killed is also a kind of information transmission. Especially for the Xia Army of Huiming Prefecture at this time, the disappearance of a flying eagle can quickly help them locate the target area.

While the two were talking, several more flying eagles flew overhead.

"They don't seem to be messy." Jiang Wang frowned.

"Yes, I released all the messenger flying beasts in Honggu City, and the chaos created by lying about the military situation was quickly suppressed." Chongxuan Sheng said unhurriedly: "Some big shots from the Xia Army have come over, and they are rebuilding the meeting.

Order in Ming Mansion."

"Do you want to interfere?" Jiang Wang asked.

Zhong Xuansheng sneered: "We are all leaving, what does it have to do with us?"

"March!" He jumped out of the mountain col.

The soldiers of the Victory Battalion jumped out from their hiding places one by one, quickly formed a team, and followed Chongxuan Shengjiang Wang all the way to Xinjie City.

Marching has been a big problem since ancient times.

The more urgent the march, the more the quality of the soldiers and the ability of the generals will be tested.

The more troops you have, the harder it is to control the speed of the army.

It was not until the old Marshal Yang Zhen of the Chang Kingdom, known as the "Soldier Immortal", that he created the "Mutang Benefit Formation", which fundamentally reduced the difficulty of marching an army.

The name of this military formation does not sound majestic.
