"Thank you, Prefecture Overseer, for your help. Thank you, Prefecture Overseer!"
Liu Dan had always been an official in the imperial court, so how could he not understand the meaning behind Yang Rui's words? As soon as Yang Rui spoke, Liu Dan hurriedly thanked Yang Rui.
"Prefecture Overseer, based on the current military strength of Zhao Gui, I think it would take at least ten to twenty thousand people to protect the lives of Shen Mi and Lou Fa. If we can have thirty to fifty thousand soldiers, we might have the power to counterattack …"
After thanking him, Liu Dan continued to probe, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Yang Rui.
"At this time, Shen Mi and Lou Fa are in a critical situation. Imperial Censor Liu, you don't have to say anything more. I will give you two hundred thousand soldiers, and I hope it will be enough …"
While Yang Rui and Liu Dan were talking, the situation of the battle between Zhao Gui, Shen Mi, and Lou Fa had changed again. Shen Mi and Lou Fa, who originally had some advantage by ambushing, were now at a complete disadvantage.
Even if Yang Rui was ready to help, the soldiers of Sky City could not immediately join the battlefield because they were in the battle area. In Yang Rui's opinion, the best way was to be able to retreat into the territory of Jingzhou. After releasing the soldiers, they would prioritize defending the pass and rescue the defeated Shen Mi and Lou Fa.
In this way, time was actually very tight, and it was precisely because of this that Yang Rui quickly made a decision in a short time.
"System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, you have chosen to accept Liu Dan's request for help and help him seize the position of the successor of Yizhou. The number of reinforcements provided is 200,000, and you can directly intervene in the current conflict …"
As soon as Yang Rui made his choice, another system notification came. To Yang Rui's surprise, the current battlefield could be used as a direct entry point for Yang Rui's reinforcements. This also eliminated the original consideration of Yang Rui seizing the pass, and the defeat of Shen Mi and Lou Fa could be easily salvaged.
Yang Rui, together with Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao, led 200,000 soldiers according to the location on the small map. They directly chose to deploy them in the mountains around the battlefield.
Being able to break the restrictions of Sky City's use was a special setting of the system, but the probability of this happening was very low.
"Kill!"
"Kill …"
"…"
Due to the special setting, when Yang Rui's 200,000 troops once again charged into the forest, whether it was Zhao Gui's troops, Shen Mi's, or Lou Fa's troops, they were all stunned. They did not expect this to happen at all.
As the 200,000 troops led by Yang Rui, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao approached, the two sides that were originally fighting immediately realized the truth. The direction of Yang Rui's troops also changed the mood of the two sides.
Yang Rui's troops were simply too many. When Zhao Gui's troops, who had just turned the tide of the battle, discovered that such a large army was actually directed at them, they immediately fell into despair after seeing a glimmer of hope.
On the other hand, Shen Mi's and Lou Fa's troops, who were originally in a desperate situation, seemed to have received a timely rain, and their combat strength swelled once again.
Not to mention that Yang Rui's troops had an overwhelming advantage in terms of numbers, just the difference in combat strength between the two sides that was originally in the battle quickly revealed the winner of the battle. With the help of Yang Rui's troops, Zhao Gui's troops were defeated by Shen Mi and Lou Fa.
If not for the fact that Yang Rui's troops could not be deployed to the rear of Zhao Gui's troops during the selection of the setting, it would have been very difficult for the enemy to survive.
"General Shen Mi, General Lou Fa."
Zhao Gui retreated in defeat. The surrounding terrain was narrow and long, and there were many mountain ridges, so it was not suitable for pursuit. Liu Dan quickly found Shen Mi and Lou Fa among the Yi Province's troops, and finally confirmed their identities.
"Eh? So it's Second Young Master. Greetings, Second Young Master! "
"Greetings, Second Young Master! The two of us were just wondering who it was that descended from the heavens with such heavenly troops?! "
Shen Mi and Lou Fa had almost escaped death. Moreover, the two of them had a relatively good relationship with Liu Dan. Now that they saw that it was Liu Dan who had brought troops to help, they naturally became even more cordial and exchanged greetings.
"The two generals don't need to thank me. If it weren't for the reinforcements of Qing Province's Blazing Sun, I wouldn't have been able to find you even if I had met you. This is His Excellency Blazing Sun. Why don't the two generals quickly greet him?"
Faced with the warm greetings of Shen Mi and Lou Fa, Liu Dan did not forget Yang Rui at the side. He introduced Yang Rui to Shen Mi and Lou Fa.
"Greetings, His Excellency Blazing Sun! It turns out that His Excellency Blazing Sun is here. I didn't know beforehand and was rude just now. I hope that His Excellency will forgive me. "
"Please forgive me, His Excellency …"
"…"
Facing Yang Rui, Shen Mi and Lou Fa once again expressed their gratitude, exchanged greetings, and apologized. Their expressions were also filled with unconcealable surprise.
As the Governor of Qing Province, Yang Rui controlled a large area of Qing Province, Yan Province, and Xu Province. It was indeed surprising that he appeared in Yi Province at this time.
And when Shen Mi and Lou Fa witnessed Yang Rui gathering a large number of troops into Sky City, this surprise was mostly eliminated.
With a powerful tool like Sky City, Shen Mi and Lou Fa suddenly felt that they could go anywhere in the Han Dynasty!
However, the two of them were not lucky enough to be invited into Sky City. Yang Rui only gave Liu Dan two to four hours to communicate with Shen Mi and Lou Fa. After that, he only took Liu Dan and floated away.
At the same time, no one, including Yang Rui, knew that in the near future, Sky City would be restricted by the system and would no longer be able to play its current role in war.
Of course, this was a matter for the future. At this time, Yang Rui brought Liu Dan and rushed towards Jiang Province, preparing to take down Jiang Province before Zhao Gui returned.
Liu Dan had some influence in Jiang Province, or rather, in the entire Ba County. According to him, Liu Yan had ordered Liu Dan, who had not yet taken up a post in Luoyang, to supervise Ba County for a period of time in the second year after Liu Yan entered Yi Province.
Therefore, Jiang Province and the entire Ba County were suitable to be Liu Dan's base. With Jiang Province as his base, Liu Dan could also exert more influence and obtain more support from the people of Yi Province.
This was Liu Dan's long-term plan, and Yang Rui did not have any objections to it. However, Yang Rui came up with a short-term plan for Liu Dan, which was to help Liu Dan take down at least three counties' cities within half a month of the game. The rest would be up to Liu Dan himself.
Until now, Yang Rui still did not know the specific benefits of sending reinforcements to Liu Dan. At the same time, Yang Rui still had many things to deal with before the six prefectures' Forbidden Army ended. Therefore, he did not want to waste too much time in Yi Province.
Of course, Liu Dan was happy to see Yang Rui's plan. At this time, he wished that Yang Rui could take down Yi Province's administrative center, Chengdu, and snatch the entire Yi Province from Liu Zhang's hands!
