The first to notice was the old general Lian Po.
Lian Po was responsible for keeping an eye on the Feng Yi Army with seventy thousand soldiers. The moment the Feng Yi Army moved toward Wenshan City, they were detected by Lian Po's scouts.
At first, Lian Po thought that the Feng Yi Army was coming to reinforce the Dragon Stallion Army and didn't pay it much attention. Other than reporting the situation to the command center, he only ordered the entire army to enter a state of war.
It wasn't that Lian Po was arrogant, but according to the intelligence gathered by the alliance, the Feng Yi Army was just a newly formed army of prisoners of war.
Although the quality of the Feng Yi Army's soldiers was not bad, their teamwork was terrible. As such, Lian Po was confident that he could stop the Feng Yi Army with seventy thousand soldiers, not to mention on such a narrow mountain path.
It wasn't just Lian Po. Wu Qi and Di Chen weren't too surprised by this information.
But what happened next left them completely dumbfounded.
From the west, Ma Chao's Tiger Panther Cavalry was the fastest. Like a bolt of lightning, they swept away all spies and spies in their path and charged toward Wenshan City.
By the time Di Chen and the others received the news, the Tiger Panther Cavalry was only twenty li away from Wenshan City. With the cavalry's speed, it would only take fifteen minutes.
This sudden change immediately alarmed Di Chen and the others, and they even panicked.
"What's going on? Why would the Imperial Guards of Shanhai City appear so close to Wenshan City?" Di Chen and the others were no fools. They immediately looked at the lord of Yuan Yang City, the fake Burmese Little Six.
The Imperial Guards had obviously teleported here, and the closest city to Wenshan City was Yuan Yang City. Di Chen and the others didn't even need to think to conclude that the fake Burmese Little Six had betrayed Yunnan City.
It was even more likely that this person had already colluded with Shanhai City.
"Traitor!"
Qin Feng lost control of his emotions and drew his sword, placing it against the fake Burmese Little Six's neck.
The fake Burmese Little Six, however, remained calm. "I'm a traitor? I'm just working with Shanhai City. If I'm a traitor, then what's the point of selling the city to the Yan Huang Alliance? "
Now that things had developed to this point, which of the lords of the cities couldn't see the Yan Huang Alliance's wild ambitions?! Some of the feudal lords in the city were already feeling remorseful. If they had known this would happen, they would have surrendered to Shanhai City.
As such, the lords were naturally dissatisfied with Qin Fen, the instigator of all this.
When he heard the words of the fake Burmese Little Six, he felt a little sad.
Qin Feng, on the other hand, felt as if his sore spot had been poked. He flew into a rage out of humiliation and said harshly, "Hmph, you've already admitted it yourself. If that's the case, then go to hell! "
As he spoke, he was about to swing his sword down.
The fake Burmese Little Six's eyes were filled with mockery and he was unmoved.
"You can't kill him!"
"Stop!"
At the critical moment, Di Chen and Battle Wolf stopped Qin Fen's reckless actions.
"Hmm?"
Qin Feng was puzzled.
Di Chen rubbed his forehead and said, "Idiot, since this person is connected to Shanhai City, we should capture and interrogate him. Isn't killing him the same as releasing a tiger back to the mountains?! "
Due to his extreme anger, Di Chen subconsciously voiced out his thoughts.
The word "idiot" made Qin Feng, who was already angry from embarrassment, feel even more ashamed. If there was a crack in this place, Qin Feng would jump into it right away.
How come in the blink of an eye, he was not a person on both sides, and was not welcomed on either side?
Qin Feng couldn't figure it out.
Di Chen knew that he had said something wrong, but he didn't want to correct him. He turned around and said to the fake Burmese Little Six, "Tell me the plan of Shanhai City, and I will spare your life on behalf of the Yan Huang Alliance. I will even reward you."
The fake Burmese Little Six sneered, "How arrogant! Since when did [Yan Huang Alliance] have the right to manage [Yunnan City State]'s affairs? Pardon me? Ridiculous! "
As soon as the words came out, the faces of the city lords changed again.
"Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit." Di Chen's face darkened.
The fake Burmese Little Six smiled calmly and didn't want to answer Di Chen's question anymore.
Seeing this, Military Kill Ripper lost his temper and said, "You son of a bitch, you're still so stubborn when you're about to die. Believe it or not, we can keep you in captivity forever. "
The fake Burmese Little Six shook his head and looked at the city lords with pity, especially Di Chen and the other members of the Yan Huang Alliance. He said, "I'm not the one who's about to die, it's all of you. You think you're so smart, but you don't know that you've fallen into Shanhai City's trap. How dare you brag about yourself? Shame on you. "
"What did you say?!" Military Kill Ripper was enraged.
"I'm talking about you. Just wait for your death. I'm not going to keep you company." The fake Burmese Little Six bit the poison pill in his mouth and committed suicide.
Of course, the fake Burmese Little Six wouldn't die because Shanhai City had already prepared a doll for him. After the mission was completed, the fake Burmese Little Six could enjoy the rest of his life in the game.
Before he left, the fake Burmese Little Six felt deeply sorry for the other city lords.
So what if they struggled? In the end, they still ended up in a miserable state. [Yunnan City State]'s biggest mistake was to work with [Yan Huang Alliance].
As the fake Burmese Little Six turned into a beam of light and disappeared, the atmosphere became deathly silent.
In this awkward atmosphere, more and more information was sent to them. With each piece of information, the atmosphere became colder.
In the end, the entire city seemed to be sealed in ice.
Di Chen and the others were like ice sculptures, their faces were ashen and filled with despair.
Battle Wolf and Xiong Ba both let out a long sigh as they felt an indescribable sense of defeat.
"In the end, we still lost to Shanhai City!"
Battle Wolf was indignant. On the surface, the alliance didn't seem to have made any mistakes during the battle in Yunnan. In fact, there were many things that were worth noting.
Just when victory was in sight, there was suddenly a 180-degree turn of events.
Could it be that what the fake Burmese Little Six said was true? That they had fallen into Shanhai City's trap every single time? Battle Wolf instinctively refused to believe it.
If that was the case, then it would be an absolute blow to their confidence.
No one knew when it started, but Shanhai City had turned into a huge shadow that shrouded the sky above the Yan Huang Alliance.
… …
At this moment, Xiong Ba, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. "Everyone, calm down. Judging from the current situation, the enemy will soon reach Wenshan City. Let's think about what we should do. Should we continue to fight, or should we retreat? "
"Retreat? How? "
Di Chen was somewhat bitter. The city guards weren't just one or two thousand, but two hundred thousand soldiers. It would take one or two hours to rush back from the battlefield to Wenshan City.
Moreover, the front line was still fighting. Wu Qi had sent the front line and the rear line to fight the Dragon Stallion Army. How could they escape so easily?
No one had the ability to do so, not even Divine General Wu Qi.
Xiong Ba shook his head. "Of course I don't expect to withdraw all the troops. What I mean is, before Shanhai City's encirclement is complete, we should quickly call back the main generals. Without hesitation, we should immediately leave through the teleportation formation. Otherwise, once Wenshan City is surrounded, Wu Qi and the others may be captured.
"This, this isn't what you want to see, right?"
Xiong Ba's words shocked Di Chen and the others.
Yes, if the soldiers were lost, they could always recruit more. If Wu Qi, Lian Po, and Tian Dan were to be captured, it would be a devastating blow to the army.
Wasn't Lord Chunshen's Zhao Kuo a lesson in blood?!
