Gelofeng, Duan Gequan, and Fengjiayi quickly left. In the tent, Dalun Ruozan and Huoshu Huizang were also preparing to leave. The one hundred thousand or so soldiers of the Annam Protectorate and allied army had already left Lion City. Cutting them off meant cutting off the final obstacle to the southwest.
Without Xianyu Zhongtong holding them back, the entire southwest would belong to Ouzan and Mengshe Zhao.
This war between the three empires would usher in a conclusion!
Moreover, both sides had already made up their minds that the youth of the Tang Dynasty could not be allowed to leave this place.
"Prime Minister? Why did you tell Gelofeng just now? "
Once Gelofeng and Mengshe Zhao's generals had left, Huoshu Huizang suddenly turned his head to Dalun Ruozan.
"Don't tell me that you don't know what Gelofeng will think if he learns of this matter."
"Hahaha, fools have their own ways of using fools, and smart people have their own ways of using smart people. Haven't you noticed? Ever since he unexpectedly defeated Xianyu Zhongtong at Erhai, Gelofeng no longer has much regard for our Ouzan. "
Dalun Ruozan's smile faded, his eyes suddenly turning profound.
"This …"
Huoshu Huizang was dumbfounded. He truly had never thought about this problem. He was a general, a soldier, and what he considered was strategy and tactics, as well as victory and defeat in a battle. The things that Dalun Ruozan had spoken of had already delved into the human heart, and he truly had not thought about them.
"With Gelofeng at this step, there's no way out. Does he still dare to betray us? "
"Ha! Who knows? Didn't the Emperor of the Tang dynasty, whose name was Zhaozhao, also not expect Gelofeng to rebel? "
Dalun Ruozan said as he waved his fan. With a light step, an invisible barrier burst out from his feet and quickly enveloped the surroundings.
"The human heart is the hardest to fathom. Gelofeng is full of ambition, and the southwest probably won't be enough to satisfy him. Even if he is unwilling to submit to Tang, he will not be willing to submit to our Ouzan in the future. Since that's the case, it's only good for us to let him understand the threat of the Tang dynasty. Don't forget, we still need his Mengshe Zhao and three hundred thousand soldiers to help us deal with the Tang dynasty. "
"But what about that kid?"
Huoshu Huizang frowned.
"Although from last night, I don't think that he's as formidable as you make him out to be. But if he really does have some secret military strategy manual of the Central Plains, given Gelofeng's personality, he'll either take it away by force or kill that kid. Either way, it won't be good for us. "
"Hahaha, you're the smart one. When I said that he has a military strategy manual, I was just saying it. Whether he really has one or not is another matter. And we'll find out very soon. As for Gelofeng and his son … since they're allies, it won't make a difference whether the military strategy manual ends up in their hands or ours. If it ends up in Gelofeng's hands, we can ask him for it. As long as Gelofeng's wise enough, he won't refuse. And if he doesn't have a military strategy manual, what difference does it make whether that child dies or not? "
Dalun Ruozan lightly chuckled as he waved his feather fan.
Huoshu Huizang helplessly shook his head at Dalun Ruozan. He and Dalun Ruozan had worked together for several decades, and his ability to command was on the same level as Zhangchou Jianqiong.
But Huoshu Huizang was still not very used to Dalun Ruozan's way of thinking and style.
"Let's go! No matter what, the Annan Protectorate army and that child called Wang Chong must die today! It's time for this war to end! "
Huoshu Huizang extended his hands. Clangclang! Two cold rays of light flew out from the edge of the tent. Huoshu Huizang grabbed the two Ouzan scimitars and strode out.
"Boom!"
The moment Huoshu Huicang walked out of the tent, the inside and outside of the tent seemed to be two different worlds in a fierce gale. The entire camp was brimming with killing intent, and the army was on the verge of moving out.
"Begin! Hurry! "
"All soldiers, move out! Bring the supplies."
"Cavalry, get ready! Check the weapons, armor, and rations!"
… …
As far as the eye could see, the Erhai plains were densely packed with soldiers. The three hundred thousand soldiers of Mengshe Zhao and Ü-Tsang had added a somber air to the battlefield.
"Have you found any traces of the Tang soldiers?"
Huoshu Huicang looked forward and waved his hand, not even turning his head.
"Milord, although the Tang soldiers have used some tricks, we've already found their tracks. They're on a mountain in the southwest! "
Behind Huoshu Huicang came the sound of hooves as an elite scout mounted his horse and respectfully said.
"Very good! Pass on my order. The army … will immediately move out!! "
"Yes, Milord!"
The elite scout turned around and galloped away. The hoofbeats of the warhorses were getting farther and farther away.
Raising his head to glance at the dark clouds in the sky, Huoshu Huizang's eyes turned much colder and harsher. Regardless of politics, the duty of a soldier was to fight, to destroy, to destroy their opponents.
Everything else had nothing to do with him!
"Zhangchou Jianqiong, you've lost!"
A harsh light flashed through his eyes as Huoshu Huizang mounted his horse and galloped north.

Bwoooom! — —
The blare of the horns pierced through the sky, accompanied by the beating of war drums and the neighing of Neigh's warhorses. The Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army, the strongest army in the southwest, began to move north.
At this moment, the dark clouds of war had reached an unimaginable level.
Without the protection of Lion City, the Tang Dynasty and the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army would face a decisive battle in the southwest!
… …
Rumble!
The earth quaked. War had come far sooner than anyone had imagined.
But when the final mountain garrisoned by the Annam Protectorate appeared before the eyes of the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army, everyone was stunned. What appeared before their eyes was not a barren mountain, but a completely different scene.
At the top of the mountain, thick smoke billowed. Waves of green smoke rose into the sky, and along the towering clouds. And around the towering mountain, from top to bottom, one could vaguely make out the image of a fortified fortress of steel.
Countless Annam Protectorate soldiers were stationed on the summit, exuding a somber aura.
"What's going on here?"
Let alone anyone else, even someone like Huoshu Huizang revealed a look of shock. This was completely different from what they had expected.
"What is that? It doesn't look like a fortress!"
Fengjiayi was also shocked.
"What did that brat do?"
Jiao Serro's eyes widened in shock.
Everyone looked like they had just swallowed a fly. They had originally believed that in the wilderness, the Annam Protectorate would have no protection and would be no match for the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army. But the scene before them was completely different.
Like a miracle, these Tang soldiers had managed to erect a fortified fortress in such a short time, and it seemed to be an extremely formidable one. At the very least, it was an extremely frightening sight from a distance.
"Just how did that brat do it? Lion City has already fallen, and the borders of the Tang Dynasty can't even take care of themselves. There's nothing in this barren mountain range, so how did he manage to create all these things? It seems like if we want to deal with the Annam Protectorate, we have to kill that brat first! "
Longqinba spat, his face full of hatred.
This style was far too familiar, almost identical to Erhai's Lion City. It could only have come from the Wang Clan's Qilin son. To the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army, this was not a good omen.
"This isn't good news at all! It seems like the Tang people made ample preparations before we came! "
The clattering of hooves could be heard from the vast army. Mengshe Zhao's King Gelofeng rode a black Erhai steed, her brow furrowed as she parted the crowd and slowly rode up from the rear.
"This should be another of that youth's handiwork, right?"
The Ouzan army had pursued the Annam Protectorate through the snow, and Gelofeng had not seen a single one of the two battles that had been lost, so she could only speculate. Gelofeng had originally been somewhat skeptical of the Ouzan army's words.
But at this moment, as he stared at this desolate mountain peak, all of Geluofeng's doubts vanished without a trace. Even though the battle had not yet begun, at this moment, even Gelofeng could sense the thorny nature of the mountain range.
That youth from the Wang Clan was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
"Hahaha, isn't this very normal? Since we know what this child has done, this shouldn't be surprising, right? "
Dalun Ruozan waved his feather fan as he rode over from the side on a majestic highland steed. Unlike the others, Dalun Ruozan's reaction to all of this was much calmer.
Since he had already seen the damage that youth from the Tang dynasty had done to the Ouzan army yesterday, Dalun Ruozan was not very surprised.
"To be honest, I'm getting more and more curious. Where did this child learn these things? A teenager shouldn't have this kind of ability, right? Moreover, no one in the Tang dynasty should be able to come up with such strange tactics. "
"The Tang dynasty of the Central Plains has a history of over a thousand years, and there are many extraordinary people hidden within. I'm more and more convinced that this youth has a formidable book on the art of war or strategy on him. "
Gelofeng and Duan Ge both paled at these words, but neither of them said anything.
"However, no matter how many schemes he has or how many strategies he has, he can't change the fact that the Annam Protectorate will become history. Those things on the mountain … if my guess is right, they should be some simple fortifications. The construction of a city isn't that simple. Even that Lion City took more than a year. There's no reason for him to be able to uproot a city in such a short amount of time. "
Dalun Ruozan's eyes were bright, and he appeared wise and farsighted.
"Prime Minister is correct!"
"No matter how many tricks the Tang people have up their sleeves, today, they will be completely wiped out. From today onwards, the southwest will no longer have an Annan Protectorate! "
Gelofeng slowly regained her composure. With a wave of her arm, roars filled the air, and the vast Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army surged forward like a black flood of steel.
"Neigh! … "
The winds howled and the warhorses neighed. When thousands of cavalry neighed in the wind, the atmosphere was grim and somber. In an instant, the atmosphere of war had become several times more intense.
"Advance! Advance! "
"No, we can't let a single Tang people escape!"
"Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without question!"
"Line up and listen to orders. Anyone who dares to move without permission will be executed! "
"The army awaits orders! Today is the day when our Mengshe Zhao army thoroughly defeats the Tang people! "
… …
Level by level, orders were passed down from the upper echelons to the lower echelons. With the sounds of beatings and curses, all the leaders and officers began to get to work.
