Chapter 176 Leave

Shortly after Wei Tianchang left the city owner's mansion, a fast horse set out from Yicheng and went to all directions of the Xuanming Empire. Not long after these fast horses left, another fast horse rushed out of Yicheng and headed for the imperial capital of the Xuanming Empire.

When these fast horses left, Yicheng's troops have also begun to prepare. They received an order from above. Pack everything you can take away and leave tonight. As for why, they really want to know. However, no one will explain it to them.

Lucheng, which is the third day after the Tianma Empire occupied Lucheng, and standing in the council hall that originally belonged to the army of the Xuanming Empire, is now surrounded by the troops of the Tianma Empire. However, there are only three people in the council chamber. In addition to Zhang Yun, the general of the Tianma Empire, who originally confronted Lucheng, there were two people, one of whom was Tuoba Ye, who had appeared in the attack on Yicheng's troops. The other person is the man in black who tampheed with the gate of Lucheng a few days ago. That is, the person who has been following Tuoba Ye.

General Zhang. Do you mean that not only Ye Feng is not in Lucheng, but also Li Yuan, the commander of the Xuanming Empire, is not there? Or, you didn't stop them at all. Let them run away?" Tuobaye took his troops back after the ambush of Ye Feng and others. He was very sure that Ye Feng was definitely dead. So he didn't care about the rest of the people. Continue to attack Yicheng with troops. However, things always develop unexpectedly. The day after Ye Feng and the others occupied the Acropolis, Tuobaye received the news. At that time, he picked up the soldier who sent the message. Let him tell the story carefully. He didn't believe that Ye Feng was still alive. This doesn't make sense. However, if it were not Ye Feng, no one could capture the Acropolis so easily. After the messenger told the matter again, Tuobaye felt that it should be Ye Feng, although he did not know why Ye Feng had been poisoned and had not died. However, the most important thing now is that Ye Feng stopped the Tianma Empire and can't let him return to Xuanming, otherwise, things will be hard to say.

Immediately, Tuobaye ordered the troops to strengthen the vigilance to prevent Ye Feng and others from breaking through and returning to Yicheng. However, Tuoba Ye and others waited for many days without finding any abnormality. Just when Tuobaye felt that Ye Feng still wanted to continue to destroy the Tianma Empire, the news from the military department told Tuobaye that Ye Feng had crossed the border between the two countries and returned to Lucheng. Tuobaye was dumbfounded. He didn't think that Ye Feng would make such a long detour and go back from Lucheng. However, it's right to think about it. Now that he has got the news that he is still not dead. It will definitely strengthen the border vigilance. He can only break through from other places. After getting the news, Tuobaye immediately took the cavalry who had besieged Ye Feng last time and rushed all the way in the direction of Zhang Yun. Since Ye Feng has returned to Lucheng, then. Presumably, the generals of Lucheng will not let Ye Feng leave so quickly. After he arrived in Lucheng, he immediately launched an attack. Beat them all.

Tuobano's idea is right. Generally speaking. Ye Feng should wait in Lucheng for a period of time. Because of Ye Feng's behavior in the Tianma Empire, the military department needs to give him a definition of merit. Then talk about the reward. This time will not be short. However, what Tuobaye didn't expect was that Ye Feng took people away without waiting for a reply from the military headquarters. Because Ye Feng has no intention of getting any benefits from the military headquarters. After a good rest, he immediately left with someone. Ling Gaofeng knows Ye Feng's identity. He also dared not stop Ye Feng. He knew that as Ye Feng, those in the military department did not dare to swallow Ye Feng's credit at all. As for the reward? For Ye Feng, it is the same everywhere. No one dares to say anything. That's it. Ye Feng left. The day after Ye Feng left, Tuobaye took his troops to Zhang Yun's place. Then they only took a day off and attacked with their troops that night. In order to fight quickly, Tuoba Ye asked the man in black to taunt the gate of Lucheng. Therefore, he directly sent cavalry at the beginning and rushed directly into Lucheng. I caught them off guard.

The operation of Tuobaye was undoubtedly successful, and the defenders of Lucheng were almost completely destroyed. Ling Gao, the general, also died in the battle. However, when Takubano came here leisurely. When he was ready to hear the good news, Zhang Yun's report made his mood fall from heaven to hell. Lucheng was occupied. Ling Gaofeng is dead. However, Ye Feng and Li Yuan were not found everywhere in Lucheng. Ye Feng, Tuobaye is afraid of his ability. And Li Yuan, as the commander-in-chief of the Xuanming Empire. As long as you catch him. Then, it is a great blow to the military heart of the Xuanming Empire. However, none of these two people are here. Isn't this their front-line headquarters? Even if Ye Feng is not here, Li Yuan should be there. But Li Yuan is not there either? What the hell is going on?

"Report to the marshal. According to the prisoner we captured. Ye Feng and the others left Lucheng the day before the marshal's arrival. Li Yuan took his troops to support Yicheng more than a month ago. I haven't come back yet." Zhang Yun is also very aggrieved. At first, he felt that Tuobaye was a brain-damaged person and had never heard of cavalry in the siege battle. Isn't this looking for death? However, he is also very clear about the strength of Tuobano. Under pressure, he obeyed Tuobaye's plan. But the next thing made Zhang Yun's brain a little insufficient. The cavalry in Tuobaye actually rushed through the gate of Lucheng directly. I don't know how many times he has attacked Lucheng here. Every time he faces the huge gate, there is nothing he can do. As long as the attack begins. Behind the gate will be immediately reinforced by the defenders. There is nothing they can do. But it was this gate that gave him a headache that opened like this under the charge of the cavalry. Of course, there is no need to ask Tuobano for the next thing. Zhang Yun immediately took his troops to the center of Lucheng, and he had to control the headquarters of Lucheng as soon as possible. The people here almost decided everything about the Xuanming imperial army. As long as they control here, the troops of the Xuanming Empire will not pose any threat to them.

Zhang Yun took the troops to surround the regiment, and then ordered the troops to start attacking. But in the end, he was surprised to find that he knew Ling Gaofeng. Li Yuan, whom he had been looking forward to seeing, disappeared. Before the attack, he specially ordered that he must be captured alive when he saw Li Yuan. But no one is here. What are you catching alive?

When he finally cleaned up the battlefield, he learned from the prisoners that Li Yuan had left here for Yicheng more than a month ago. Zhang Yun has nothing to do about this. I can only tell Tuobaye the truth.

"However, the marshal doesn't have to worry too much. Even if Li Yuan ran away. We have occupied Lucheng. This is their nest, where we found the distribution map of the location of enemy troops. The subordinates will send troops to these places tomorrow to destroy all the enemies. As long as the enemy's troops are gone. Even Li Yuan and others can't fight against us. Zhang Yun's words are good. As long as they destroy all the troops of the Xuanming Empire, then. No matter how powerful Li Yuan is, he is just a person. It is not a threat to them.

"Very good. This matter will be left to you. Then just return the message to me. Go down." Tuobaye pondered for a moment and felt that Zhang Yun was right. As long as there is no army. Li Yun and Ye Feng are tigers without teeth. There is nothing to be afraid of.

The next day, Zhang Yun sent troops to the Xuanming Empire's garrison near Lucheng to carry out an extermination operation. At first, the action went well. However, after the successive destruction of three troops, the situation was wrong. At the beginning, when Zhang Yun found that the troops marked on the map had nothing but some charred debris, he didn't pay much attention to it. I thought it had been conquered by my own troops for a long time. But when this kind of news kept coming, Zhang Yun felt something was wrong. It's okay if there is only one place. But for so many days, no matter which unit went, they found that the location marked on the map was nothing but a pile of burned debris. Zhang Yun felt that the enemy should have been prepared for their extermination and withdrew those troops in advance. However, this is nothing. Sooner or later, the enemy will find their own plan. It's just a little bit now.

Since the enemy has withdrawn all the troops, there is no need for the troops to attack everywhere. Zhang Yun would like to consider which city is better to attack next. Wuling City is of course the first choice. But the distance is too far, and it is difficult for him to decide on other cities for a while. At this moment, a unit that went to carry out the task of extermination brought back a message.

It turned out that they caught a messenger on their way to destroy the Xuanming Empire's troops. After torture, it was learned that the troops of the Xuanming Empire not only retreated from their respective defense areas. Even the four-city troops at the border retreated at the same time. All the troops are gathering in the sunset plain. What exactly do you want to do? He doesn't know either.

"Sun set?" Zhang Yun looked at the huge plain on the map of the Xuanming Empire. He frowned. He didn't understand why the enemy suddenly gave up such a good defensive place, and the whole army retreated to the sunset plain? He still can't believe it. Immediately send troops to check. The results proved that the information they got was true. When his troops went to investigate, they found that the gate was open and there were no defenders in the city. Even where it was originally a military camp, there was only a pile of ashes left.

"Do they... want to decide the winner in the first battle?" Zhang Yun can't help thinking so. Now the enemy's troops are all gathered in the sunset plain. There is no danger there. After that, it will be the imperial capital of the Xuanming Empire. Zhang Yun couldn't think of any other possibility except this.

Zhang Yun felt that he still needed to talk to Tuobaye about this matter. So, he rushed to the headquarters of Lucheng that night. Meet Takubano and tell Takubano about the information during this period and his guess.

"Your guess should be correct. If they don't do this. When it is broken by each of us, there will be no chance. Tuobano also agreed with Zhang Yun's speculation.

"What should we do?"

"Well, since they want to fight, we will fight with them. They have no way out now. Of course we can delay it. But after a long time, no one knows what will happen. Therefore, a decisive battle is a decisive battle. I want to let them know that they will lose. You...you go out first. I'll call you later." Tuobano was about to finish speaking when his face suddenly changed. He turned his mouth and said to Zhang Yun.

"My subordinates have left." Zhang Yun didn't understand why he let himself go before Tuobaye finished saying this. But he didn't dare to ask more. He left immediately.

After Zhang Yun left, Tuoba Ye went straight to a secluded place and took out something similar to a mirror from his arms. It's just that this thing doesn't have the decoration around the mirror. There is only one flat mirror. After Tuobaye took out this thing, Yungong injected the vitality into his body into it. A bright light flashed on the originally dim mirror, and then a person's face appeared in the mirror.

"Yinjiu. What can I do for you?" Tuobano obviously knew the man in the mirror. However, he felt a little strange about this person looking for him at this time.
