(Congratulations to Ding Xiaoao for becoming the new leader of this book. I'm grateful.)
State of Yue, Tian Bei Province, Shangye City.
The entire city had become a huge military camp. The Monarch, Ning Yuanxian, had borrowed a huge sum of money to fund the military.
A hundred thousand soldiers had gathered on the defense line.
Gold coins were being poured out like water every day.
However, Ning Yuanxian did not feel the pinch at all. As long as they survived this crisis, a few million gold coins was nothing.
Exquisite people had one thing in common, and that was squandering.
Perhaps it was because of the gold coins, or because of the Monarch, the morale of the State of Yue's army at the Tian Bei defense line was soaring.
The atmosphere of the final battle was getting stronger.
The State of Yue's army even took the initiative to attack a few times and fought a few small-scale battles.
Although the third prince, Ning Qi, was a little cold, he was really powerful on the battlefield. He was a natural born general.
He won a few battles.
Not only that, the third prince was clamoring every day.
"Wu Wang, do you dare to come and fight me?"
"Wu Wang, you're still wet behind the ears. You're not fit to fight my father!"
These shouts were still normal. Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from the Third Prince's side.
"Wu Wang, come and lick my big bird!"
Immediately, everyone looked at the person.
It was like Zhang Fei was alive, or Fan Kuai was reborn.
This person was called Lan Bao!
He was also a war refugee from the great battle 20 years ago.
After the great battle between the Great Yan Empire and Jiang Li, at least a few million war refugees were born and fled in all directions.
Bitter Joy was a war refugee, so was Lan Bao.
He was first adopted by the Zhong family. Because of his particularly violent temper, he was named Zhong Bao!
After entering the Zhong family, he rose quickly due to his amazing bloodline talent.
His personal martial arts were not very brilliant, but his martial arts on the battlefield were heaven-defying.
He was usually a man of few words, but once on the battlefield, he became a madman. He was cruel and bloodthirsty, and was nicknamed the Devil Incarnate.
However, his murderous nature was too strong, so Marquis Zhong Yao removed his surname.
When he was a teenager, he learned martial arts from Grandmaster Lendo, and changed his name to Lan Bao.
However, when he was 28 years old, he was expelled by Grandmaster Lendo because his murderous nature was too strong.
This Lan's surname is not allowed, it will be changed to Lan Bao!
"Wu Wang, you little brat, get over here! I'm going to f * ck you!"
"Wu Wang, you little brat, I'm going to crush your balls and rip off your penis, hahaha!"
This super valiant general's voice was like thunder, and could be heard clearly from far away.
The young Lord of Wu remained calm.
It was as if he hadn't heard anything, but his trusted eunuch could clearly see that his knuckles were already bulging. He was already very angry.
"Your Majesty, King Yue sent more troops." Great General Wu Zhi said.
King Wu said, "More troops? Was Ning Yuanxian crazy? Where else can the state of Yue deploy troops? "
Great General Wu Zhi said, "Yanzhou."
King Wu sucked in a breath of cold air. "Yan Province's army of a hundred thousand has already been mobilized by him, and he still wants to mobilize troops from Bian Xiao? He has completely lost his mind. "
Wu Zhi said, "Recently, King Yue's army has been provoking us daily. Especially that Lan Bao, he has led his army to attack a few times."
King Wu's gaze turned cold. "Steady, steady!"
Ning Yuanxian was crazy, but he was not!
This time, his strategy was very simple. He wanted to take advantage of Su Nan's heaven-sent opportunity to seize the Leizhou Archipelago and even Jinshan Island.
In this way, it was equivalent to a sharp sword against the State of Yue's stomach.
Once this goal was achieved, the next step would be to adapt to the situation.
If Su Qiang's army swept through the entire Tianxi Province and directly killed their way to the State of Yue's capital, Ning Yuanxian's rear would be in chaos, and his so-called personal expedition would become a complete joke.
At that time, it would be time for King Wu to go south and take back all the nine counties that had been ceded.
At that time, the State of Yue would have lost at least a third of its territory and become a second-rate kingdom.
The State of Wu would leap up and become the overlord of the South.
Great General Wu Zhi said, "Your Majesty, Ning Yuanxian is so crazy. I am afraid that one day, he will not be able to control himself and directly fight with us. And if we are not sufficiently prepared, I am afraid we will suffer greatly. "
King Wu frowned.
He had originally led the army south to put on a show, a cover to seize the Leizhou Archipelago.
He had not expected that he would directly anger the madman Ning Yuanxian, who would actually personally lead the army, as if he was going to fight to the death.
Helpless, King Wu could only continue to increase the number of troops.
But after the incident in Yanzhou 20 years ago, the State of Wu's strength had been greatly reduced. There was a gap between the State of Wu and the State of Yue, and the total number of troops was not as good as the State of Yue.
"Send another 20,000 troops!" King Wu said. "The King of Yue is in the city, and we are out in the wilderness. We must maintain our military superiority."
Great General Wu Zhi said, "We also have no more troops to deploy."
King Wu said, "Deploy from the west. Yanzhou's garrison is already less than 40,000, and there is no need for us to hoard so many troops there."
At this time, a black-armored warrior walked in. This person was a Black Water Station of the State of Wu.
"Your Majesty, Chou Hou has officially surrendered to our country. The opportunity to seize the Raging Tide City and the Leizhou Archipelago is here!"
It was done!
King Wu stood up excitedly!
The King of Yue, Ning Yuanxian, did not place much importance on the Leizhou Archipelago and the Raging Tide City, but he did.
Because the Leizhou Archipelago was close to the State of Yue. Once it was seized, it would be equivalent to blocking the eastern gate of the State of Yue.
Ning Yuanxian was already old, and only cared about the land and not the sea. But King Wu knew that the sea trade was becoming more and more prosperous, and seizing it was important.
"Order the army to board the ships and follow the current. Gather at Tianfeng City first and meet up with Chou Hou's army. We will attack the Raging Tide City and seize the Leizhou Archipelago!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
With King Wu's orders, the State of Wu's 20,000 strong army boarded all kinds of ships and headed south.
Seizing the Raging Tide City and the Leizhou Archipelago had officially begun!
… … …
The King of Yue, Ning Yuanxian, frowned.
Outside, Fierce General Lan Bao's thunderous curses, even though he was so far away, he could still hear them.
Too vulgar.
It was as if he had f * cked King Wu's wife, parents, and even King Wu himself.
Ning Yuanxian was a delicate person, and he could not stand such vulgar words.
But Lan Bao was, after all, a super valiant general on his side. Recently, he had been attacking frequently, and he was almost invincible in small-scale battles.
But under normal circumstances, Ning Yuanxian did not dare to use him.
He was bloodthirsty, and the key was that he had no military discipline and was vulgar. Ning Yuanxian did not like him at all.
Therefore, Ning Yuanxian had excluded him from the last hunting at the border. Now that he thought about it, he regretted it.
"Your Majesty, the Duke of Weiwu has asked if we can act now?"
Ning Yuanxian frowned!
Normally, this was a good time to act, because the whole world believed that Ning Yuanxian would fight with King Wu.
In order to put on this show, Ning Yuanxian personally led the army to the battlefield. Not only did he mobilize all the famous generals, but he also borrowed more than two million gold coins from the Yinyuan Association for military expenses.
The Wu army on the line of defense in Yanzhou was relatively empty.
"No, it's not time yet!" Ning Yuanxian said, "When is the enemy the most relaxed and unguarded?"
Eunuch Li Sun said, "At the most dangerous time for the State of Yue."
Ning Yuanxian said, "The moment when Su Nan rebelled is the most dangerous time for the State of Yue, and also the time when Wu State is most relaxed. That's when Bian Xiao will attack crazily, and fight a fierce battle that will shock the world. He will kill the people of Wu State, frighten the surrounding countries, and force Chu State to retreat! "
"Order Zheng Tuo to continue to show weakness, and close the Daynight Gate. Don't show any intention to go south!"
"Yes!"
Eunuch Li Sun's scalp went numb.
He also thought that the Monarch had gone crazy. This gamble was too big.
It was like dancing on a tightrope. Once they fell, there would be countless sharp blades below!
"I hope that this little viper, Zhang Chong and Shen Lang, don't disappoint me!" Ning Yuanxian said, "I hope these two people and Zheng Tuo can block Su Nan's rebel army in the Daynight County!"
Li Sun didn't dare to speak, but it was too difficult!
Zhang Chong only had three thousand people, and Shen Lang only had a few hundred people. Even with Zheng Tuo's army, it would be extremely difficult to block Su Nan's rebel army.
In fact, the Monarch was more anxious than anyone else.
The Daynight County was completely Su Nan's territory. Shen Lang and Zhang Chong were going deep into the tiger's den, and there was a slim chance of survival.
But don't doubt the people you use, and don't use the people you doubt.
Shen Lang might not have any other skills, but he should be able to harm people.
What was the situation in the Daynight County?
Shen Lang, Zhang Chong, don't let me down.
At this moment, Eunuch Xiao Li rushed in and said, "Your Majesty, urgent report from the Daynight County!"
Ning Yuanxian suddenly stood up.
He didn't even wait for Li Sun to pass it to him, and directly snatched it.
After reading the secret letter.
Ning Yuanxian felt that his hair was about to stand up.
I … I … F * ck!
He was the Monarch, so he had to say a lot of things in a dignified manner. That was why he kept asking Zhang Chong and Shen Lang to go to the Daynight County to stabilize Su Nan and not let him rebel.
There were many things that he couldn't say, so he could only give an edict and act at his discretion.
He knew in his heart that Shen Lang would definitely understand his subtext.
Messing up the Daynight County, constantly creating problems for Su Nan, and making him restless.
But after reading the secret letter, Ning Yuanxian was still shocked by Shen Lang's means.
Shen Lang, are you crazy?
How many people did you kill?
Directly or indirectly, at least tens of thousands!
How many people in the entire Daynight County were killed by you, Shen Lang?
You're more than just audacious!
The wealth that the Western Region merchants had accumulated in the Daynight County for decades was instantly looted by you.
The secret letter only mentioned that Shen Lang had kidnapped tens of thousands of people and plundered the entire Daynight County.
Su Nan's army was madly chasing and killing these tens of thousands of people.
The secret letter didn't have time to explain the final outcome because it hadn't happened yet.
But Ning Yuanxian could already see that Shen Lang planned to use these tens of thousands of looters as victims.
This person is really vicious.
I think you're capable, and I think you're very good at causing trouble.
But I didn't expect you to cause trouble to this extent. With your own strength, you simply turned the entire Daynight County upside down.
How bold!
The Monarch handed the secret letter to Li Sun and grinned, "From now on, Shen Lang's reputation in the Daynight County will be as bad as a child's cry, and I will also be stinking in the Daynight County. He's a madman. When we were in the capital, he listened to every word I said seriously and was very well-behaved. But as soon as we arrived at the Daynight Prefecture, he threw my words out of the window. This general who doesn't obey the orders of the monarch when he's on the battlefield has been thoroughly played by him. "
After Eunuch Li Sun read it, he also felt a chill down his spine.
This, is this still the pretty boy who slept naked in the same bed with Princess Ning Yan? Is this still the well-behaved and shameless little thing?
In less than half a month, the entire Daynight County was cleaned up by him, and several cities were almost wiped out by him. All the Western Region merchants, Western Region warriors, and the lackey bureaucrats of the Su Clan were all killed.
Almost all the cities in the Daynight County were now in a state of no government.
Ning Yuanxian said, "Everyone says that I, Ning Yuanxian, have killed a lot. How can I be compared to this bold bastard?"
"Issue a decree to reprimand Shen Lang for his audacity. Give him ten whips."
"Issue a decree to reprimand Zhang Chong. How did he manage his subordinates? Isn't this behavior disappointing the hearts of the people in the Daynight County?"
The Monarch was shocked and overjoyed.
He really didn't expect this little thing to be able to do this. However, his guts were really as big as the sky.
"Su Nan is going to start a rebellion ahead of time!"
"He probably can't wait to meet with the Qiang Kingdom!"
Li Sun said, "Is Shen Lang really that powerful?"
The Monarch said, "Is he really that powerful? He directly forced Su Nan to the edge of the cliff. Su Nan is such a vicious person, and only someone more vicious than Shen Lang can subdue him. "
Li Sun said, "But this little thief's reputation is completely ruined. It's obvious that he really has no ambition. He's only going to take revenge."
The Monarch scolded, "You old dog, you don't have to beat around the bush to put in a good word for him. I can tell if he's ambitious or not."
Li Sun bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
The Monarch stood up and was so excited that his body was burning. He said, "Inform Bian Xiao to get ready. The time to strike is coming!"
Then, he walked out of the camp and embraced the strong wind outside.
The wind was really blowing, and the clouds were flying!
The grand scheme was about to begin.
I, Ning Yuanxian, have Bian Xiao, Zhong Yao, Yan Chuang, Zhu Hongzhu, and Zhang Chong. Why would I worry about not getting through this crisis?
Hmm!
And then there was the little poisonous snake, Shen Lang.
The grand scheme was about to begin.
I'll personally set the stage for you and beat the drums for you.
Bian Xiao, Zhang Chong, Shen Lang, the three of you should put on a good show!
… …
The Daynight County Main City!
Su Quan descended from the top of the city wall.
Then, the Suffering Monk and Grandmaster Ban Ruo landed.
More than a dozen masters also landed.
However, a few of them were killed, and their bodies fell.
The top masters were all about killing in one blow.
If they missed this opportunity, they wouldn't have it again!
Su Quan roared loudly!
"Ah … Ah … Ah …"
He was really unwilling!
He personally took action and even invited Grandmaster Ban Ruo, but he still couldn't kill Zhang Chong and Shen Lang.
Who was that ugly middle-aged man?
He was so powerful!
With such a top master protecting Zhang Chong, the possibility of killing Zhang Chong through martial arts was almost zero.
Not to mention that Zhang Chong's martial arts was also very high.
It was also at this time that Zhang Chong was exposed. If he hid among the thousands of troops.
Even a Grandmaster couldn't assassinate him.
However, Su Quan's sword had been smeared with poison, and Zhang Chong had been stabbed by him. He hoped that he could die!
But he thought too much!
Zhang Chong was just in the middle.
Shen Lang said directly, "Da Zhuang, suck out all the blood from Lord Zhang's wound!"
The Big Fool was a freak. Although he wasn't invulnerable to poison, he wasn't far from it.
The Big Fool stepped forward and directly sucked out all the blood from Zhang Chong's wound.
For a moment, Zhang Chong was almost trembling.
Because … this mouthful of blood sucked out was almost half a catty.
Not to mention poisonous blood, even a lot of normal good blood had been sucked out.
"Bah!"
The Big Fool spat out more than 100 milliliters of blood.
Then, Shen Lang took out a knife and quickly cut off all the flesh on Zhang Chong's wound. Then, he sutured it with a needle and thread and applied medicine to the wound.
His movements were very fast!
Even if Su Quan's sword was poisoned, it was no longer a problem.
Next, Shen Lang would write a few prescriptions for Zhang Chong to take every day to remove the remaining poison.
He observed the blood on the ground.
Sure enough, Su Quan's sword was smeared with poison, and it was the poison of a poisonous snake!
"It's all right." Shen Lang said, "Although this kind of snake venom is amazing, it hasn't entered Lord Zhang's body yet. Next, you just need to take a few medicines to stop the inflammation."
Zhang Chong looked down at the wound on his chest. It was a full three inches long.
Su Quan's martial arts were really good, only a little worse than Su Nan's.
Neither of them said thank you.
Previously, Shen Lang saved Zhang Chong's life.
And this time, Zhang Chong blocked a sword for Shen Lang, which could be considered as repayment.
But immediately, Shen Lang saved him!
Therefore, this life-saving grace was already entangled.
Shen Lang said to the ugly middle-aged man, "Princess Ning Buhan, in the upcoming battle, please bring the experts of the Black Water Platform to protect Lord Zhang Chong at all times. Don't give Su Nan any chance."
In fact, Shen Lang didn't even know about Princess Ning Jie's existence. The Monarch was really sinister.
Ning Buhan?
Everyone immediately looked at Shen Lang.
What … What kind of nickname was that?
Shen Lang quickly shut up. He was really embarrassed, he said it out loud.
Princess Ning Jie glanced at Shen Lang. She wasn't interested in men, but she completely understood their dirty thoughts.
She instantly understood the nickname that Shen Lang gave her.
However, she merely shot a cold glance at Shen Lang and did not bother with him anymore.
Shen Lang said with a smile, "Grandpa Zhang, our first step is a success! Next, Su Nan's arrow has no choice but to be released. He will rebel before he can meet with the Qiang Kingdom. "
Zhang Chong said, "Shen is amazing."
What was the most crucial point in this battle?
Cut off Su Qiang and prevent the two armies from meeting!
Su Nan wanted to kill three birds with one stone, and Shen Lang was also using a carrot to keep Su Nan in suspense.
Now, he was forced to the cliff.
"Su Nan's plan to kill three birds with one stone is very good and vicious, but … he's too greedy."
Zhang Chong agreed.
Benefits moved people's hearts.
The best thing about Shen Lang was that he treated money like dung and power like dung.
In the battle of the Nu Tiao City, Shen Lang had displayed this to the fullest.
In order to seize the Nu Tiao City, in order to attract Chou Tianwei, Jinshan Island was thrown out as he pleased. Tens of millions of gold coins were thrown out as he pleased.
And it was the same now!
How many gold coins had he plundered with tens of thousands of people?
An astronomical number.
But he didn't put it in his eyes at all. He was using it to lure Su Nan's army.
Tens of thousands of rioters carrying an astronomical number of gold coins, in Su Nan's eyes, this was a piece of super fat meat that could be easily eaten. The only thing he wanted was to eat it completely and not let the fat meat escape.
Just like that, Shen Lang used this fat meat to lure Su Clan's army to the edge of the cliff.
Then, he suddenly flashed and killed more than half of the tens of thousands of looters.
He left Su Quan's army hanging on the cliff.
Towards the astronomical number of gold coins, Shen Lang was not tempted.
Towards the tens of thousands of looters, he was not tempted at all.
In the eyes of other ambitious people, these tens of thousands of looters were an army of tens of thousands. If used well, what kind of power and influence would that be? But Shen Lang didn't, he turned around and threw them away, pushing them off the cliff.
Su Nan was too smart, he wanted too much.
So in this battle.
He almost didn't get anything. He had killed three birds with one stone and missed!
Now, Su Quan's army was at the city gates.
He only ate a small piece of this fat meat.
What could he do?
Retreat?
Impossible, what kind of blow to the morale?
People thought that his army of more than ten thousand was scared off by Zhang Chong's army of a few thousand.
If he didn't retreat, he would besiege the city?
Not good either!
Because Zhang Chong had already taken over the main city of White Night and obtained an astronomical number of gold coins, he could continue to recruit the city's people into the army.
As long as Zhang Chong was given time, his army could grow stronger day by day.
The only way was to make the best of the mistake and immediately attack the city.
The arrow was already on the bowstring, it had to be released.
While Zhang Chong was still standing firm, he would immediately attack the city with the army!
But in this way, even if he rebelled in advance and became independent, he wouldn't be able to wait for Su Qiang's army to join forces.
So Zhang Chong said that the first step was completed!
Forcing Su Nan to rebel in advance and separate Su Qiang's army to join forces.
… …
Shen Lang: "In three days at the latest, Su Nan will announce that he will rebel against Vietnam and become independent. At that time, his army of more than ten thousand will madly attack White Night City. At that time, you will be under unparalleled pressure. "
Wasn't that right?
Zhang Chong only had three to four thousand troops in his hands, and he had to defend against about four times the number of enemies.
This battle to defend the city was destined to be extremely tragic.
Zhang Chong said: "I can only say that I will do my best! If the city is here, the people will be here. If the city is destroyed, the people will die! "
This was the bottom line set by the Monarch!
It would take at least a month or two to stop Su Nan's rebellion in White Night City.
If White Night City fell during this time, then both Shen Lang and Zhang Chong would lose.
Shen Lang wrote a prescription and handed it to Zhang Chong.
"Master Zhang, after a short meeting, we have to separate again. While Su Qiang's army hasn't surrounded us yet, I have to leave."
Princess Ning Jie was stunned.
Shen Lang actually didn't want to stay to defend the city? Where are you going?
Zhang Chong said: "The key to this battle is the Qiang army! Once the Qiang Kingdom and the Su Clan meet up, then no matter how capable we are, we will definitely lose. With just a few thousand of us, we won't be able to stop Su Qiang's army of tens of thousands. "
Grand Princess Ning Jie said, "But His Majesty's order is only for you to stop Su Nan's rebel army for a month or two. When the situation in the north becomes clear, the main army will head south to fight Su Nan in the Western Heaven Province and destroy him in one fell swoop!"
Zhang Chong said, "But Shen doesn't want to wait for His Majesty's main army. He wants to rely on the two of us to exterminate the Su Family."
Grand Princess Ning Jie's scalp instantly went numb.
"Are you crazy? How is this possible? "Ning Jie said in a low voice," The two of you only have four thousand troops at most. If you can delay Su Nan's rebel army for a month, even if it's a huge victory, wanting to destroy Su Qiang's army of tens of thousands is just a pipe dream. His Majesty's decree is very clear. He wants you to join hands with General Zheng Tuo to restrain Su Nan for a month or two so that he can buy time for the war in the north! "
Shen Lang: "When the general is outside, the monarch's orders are not accepted!"
Then, Shen Lang cupped his hands towards Zhang Chong and said, "Master Zhang, farewell! Please hold on for at least a month! When the time comes, I will definitely lead the army to attack from both inside and outside, and kill all of Su Nan's rebel army. "
Zhang Chong said, "Shen, take care. I can only say that if the city is here, the people will be here. If the city dies, the people will die!"
After that, Shen Lang mounted his warhorse and led the two hundred men, each man riding on two horses, and quickly departed.
Taking advantage of the fact that the White Night City had not been surrounded by the enemy, he left through the east gate and disappeared into the night.
Grand Princess Ning Jie looked at Shen Lang's disappearing figure and said in a low voice, "What is he going to do?"
Zhang Chong said, "Destroy the main army of the Qiang Kingdom."
Ning Jie said, "Just, just with his two hundred people, he wants to destroy forty to fifty thousand of Arutai's troops?"
Zhang Chong said, "And it has to be done within half a month!"
Grand Princess Ning Jie was about to go crazy.
The Qiang Kingdom's main force is forty to fifty thousand troops, and you, Shen Lang, only have two hundred people, and you don't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
Two hundred people want to destroy forty to fifty thousand?
Are you dreaming?
Ning Jie couldn't help but say, "Master Zhang, Shen Lang is crazy, are you also crazy? His Majesty's order is clear, to restrain the Su Nan rebels for a month or two, not to annihilate them! "
Zhang Chong said, "Your Highness, do you think I can stop Shen? He said long ago that he would take revenge and wipe out the hatred, and that he would wipe out the entire Su Clan. "
Ning Jie said, "What enmity does he have with Su Nan?"
Zhang Chong said, "It's probably because the Su family threw stones at the Kim family when they were down, and Su Jianting cut his mother-in-law in the back."
Grand Princess Ning Jie's teeth turned cold.
Just … Just this little bit of hatred? I thought it was for killing my parents.
Just because your mother-in-law, Su Peipei, was cut in the back, you, Shen Lang, want to kill the entire Su family?
You, you're too narrow-minded.
Zhang Chong said, "Moreover, in the capital, Su Nan used Ho Tsai's case to murder Shen in an attempt to put him to death."
Grand Princess Ning Jie looked at Zhang Chong for a long time and said, "Master Zhang, you're really amazing."
The meaning was very clear.
Lord Zhang Chong, you and Shen Lang definitely have a life and death feud in Nujiang County, right?
In fact, the number of times you two have fought is far more than Su Nan.
In the end, Shen Lang wouldn't rest until Su Nan was dead, but he treated you, Zhang Chong, as if you were a close friend.
Zhang Chong said, "I don't have any personal grudges with Shen."
Grand Princess Ning Jie said, "Shen Lang only brought two hundred people to destroy the main army of the Qiang Kingdom. What does he plan to do?"
Zhang Chong said, "I don't know."
Ning Jie said, "You don't know, and you still believe him? And you still trust him with your life? "
Zhang Chong said, "I have no other choice! This time, His Majesty sent me and Shen to the White Night County. On the surface, I am the leader and he is the assistant, but Shen is unwilling to be left behind. We can't have internal strife, so he will be the leader and I will be the assistant. "
Ning Jie said, "Then do you think Shen Lang can destroy the main force of the Qiang Kingdom with just two hundred people?"
"I don't know." Zhang Chong said, "Probably …" Yes! "
Ning Jie said, "Crazy, you're all crazy! I must report this matter to His Majesty. His Majesty's order is very clear, it is to restrain Su Nan's army, not to annihilate, not to annihilate! "
Zhang Chong said, "Your Highness, please do as you please, but Su Nan's arrow is on the bowstring, we have no choice but to shoot. We are also on the bowstring, we have no choice but to shoot. "
… ….
Su Quan carried out the final count!
Of the twenty thousand looters, eight thousand had been killed, and the remaining ten thousand had escaped under the cover of the night.
And all of them had fled along the city walls, like rabbits, burrowing into the fields and forests and disappearing without a trace.
"I only collected three hundred thousand gold coins, the rest are all … gone!"
"The five thousand people who plundered the most were let into the city by Shen Lang and then killed all of them. This batch of gold coins was taken by Zhang Chong, and will probably be used for military expenses."
Su Nan was really going to explode.
My army of more than ten thousand worked hard for so long, but in the end, the fat was taken away by someone else.
I've worked hard for nothing?
The plan to kill three birds with one stone had all failed.
He didn't get the gold coins, Shen Lang also ran away, and he didn't take down the White Night County City either.
Moreover, he even gave Zhang Chong hundreds of thousands of gold coins as military expenses?
Su Quan said, "How much gold coins did we lose this time?"
"About a million. The savings of the merchants in the Western Region over the years were all looted!"
Su Quan felt dizzy.
His lord had wanted to kill three birds with one stone, but all of them had failed.
He had really suffered a double loss.
What should he do next?
Attack the city immediately?
That would be preemptive rebellion.
The Qiang Kingdom's army hadn't arrived yet!
But retreat?
Impossible, it would be too damaging to their morale.
Surround them and not attack?
That wouldn't work either. Zhang Chong had already gained a foothold, so the earlier they attacked, the better.
At this moment, a scout came to report!
"Sir, Shen Lang led two hundred warriors and left the White Night County City from the east gate. They disappeared!"
Su Quan trembled.
What was this little snake going to do now?
Where was he going if he didn't stay in the city?
Soon, he understood!
Shen Lang's target might be the Qiang Kingdom's main army.
"Master Suffering!"
Before Su Quan could say anything, the Great Tribulation Temple's Monk Suffering immediately led two thousand monk soldiers to chase after Shen Lang.
Now, Shen Lang and the Great Tribulation Temple had a deep hatred for each other.
Then, the Chu Martial Grandmaster Ban Ruo also rushed over.
She only had one target, the Sword King Li Qianqiu.
Su Quan said, "Su Yong, report this bad news to the Lord. What should we do next? Let the Lord decide! "
"Yes!" Su Yong mounted his horse and galloped toward the Marquis' residence!
… …
The next day, in the Marquis' residence!
Su Nan held Su Quan's secret letter, his body trembling, and his hands were completely cold.
He couldn't believe it at all.
The plan of killing three birds with one stone could be said to be a brilliant plan to bring peace to the world.
Although it wasn't foolproof …
It was definitely eighty to ninety percent confident.
He would be able to obtain an astronomical amount of gold coins, be able to legitimately enter the Daynight Region, and even kill Shen Lang.
But what happened in the end?
None of them succeeded.
Shen Lang, that little thief, had run away again.
The White Night County City was also occupied by Zhang Chong.
Almost all of the one million gold coins were lost, and half of them fell into Zhang Chong's hands, becoming his military expenses.
The battle between him and Shen Lang could be said to be a complete loss of face.
He had been slapped in the face by Shen Lang!
