The Era of Generals

Another month passed in a flash.

It's not an exaggeration to say a thing about calm and calm this month.

Xilong City, the former main city of the Southern Province of the Zhuyan Empire, is now firmly occupied by the Qingyang Empire.

Ouyang enforced that, but after all he did not send troops to recover Xilong City, but instead allowed Chen Ze to lead an army of millions to hold on to this existence that could be called the lifeline of Nantes Province.

Xilong City could not be recovered, let alone the three main cities of Ketan, Xili and Ter after it.

At this point, it is estimated that the Zhu Yan Empire also acquiesced to this result, and for a while did not intend to regain it.

And everyone knows that the longer the time delay, the less chance of regaining these four cities. Once all the dust settles, the Zhu Yan Empire wants to do something in the future, and it will take more than ten times the energy and cost to do it. arrive.

All this was caused by Ouyang's strict refusal to send troops.

Even though the Zhu Yan Empire sent a special envoy to urge Ouyang Lixing to send troops, but even so, Ouyang Lixing abruptly withstood the pressure and directly rejected the special envoy Hong Tianji's request.

In desperation, Hong Tianji had to return to his life. He brought back news that should have angered the royal family, but when the court received Hong Tianji’s reply, the reaction was the same as Hong Tianji’s at the Juhe City Lord’s Mansion. The reaction is the same.

It can only be a wry smile.

Yes, this matter is indeed a bit difficult. If Ouyang Lixing agrees, it will make the empire temporarily relieved, but if they don't agree, they can't rebuke Ouyang Lixing too much at this time.

After all, they still have to rely on Ouyang to withstand the pressure from Anluo Province. Although they cannot achieve their ideal results now, Ouyang has still regained more than half of the territory of Nantes Province for the empire. , And more importantly, let the war in Nantes temporarily calm down.

This made the Zhu Yan Empire's situation on the mainland after all a lot better.

You know, all this started because the province of Nantes was captured. To this day, there are still countless pairs of eyes staring at the province of Nantes, and the situation in the province of Nantes is used to calculate their own gains and losses. .

The province of Nantes can be stabilized, and it can undoubtedly make the secretly interested people lose many calculations. It is not a stable situation for the Zhu Yan Empire.

At this time, the empire would never dare to turn his face against Ouyang in any way. Once the wise general was forced into anxieties, he let go and went straight back to Fengqixing Province. Thinking that he couldn't get along in the Zhu Yan Empire, he turned his head and fell to the Qingyang Empire...

With Ouyang's strength at this time and his importance in the province of Nantes, it can be said that as long as Ouyang surrenders to the enemy, the consequence that follows is the total collapse of the province of Nantes!

It is also conceivable that if Ouyang strictly expresses this meaning, what kind of super treatment he will receive from the Qingyang Empire.

So, it is not impossible.

An ultra-high-level general like Ouyang Li Xing was the target that every empire wanted to win over, not to mention Ouyang Li Xing could bring a super gift to the Qingyang Empire.

Based on this consideration, how dare the Zhu Yan Empire force Ouyang to enforce it?

When Hong Tianji was sent there, he wanted to use the friendship between the two and the righteousness of the country to show affection and reason for Ouyang Li's actions.

However, Ouyang strictly did not follow his practice at all.

This is also the biggest headache for Ouyang's enemies when he is strictly acting as an enemy.

No matter what you say or do, Ouyang has a sense of discretion. He will not affect his judgment due to external factors, nor will he affect the final decision due to some external factors.

In the end, the Zhu Yan Empire was softened and did not continue to force Ouyang to enforce it.

Of course, there are naturally no reinforcements. It is not that I don’t want to, but it is really not. I can only rely on Ouyang to continue to grind in the province of Nantes.

As a result, a whole month has passed without any change in the situation.

Ouyang Lixing still stationed his troops in Juhe City, and Chen Ze was also stationed in Xilong City.

The difference may only be the stronger and stronger city defense of Xilong City. During this month, Chen Ze didn’t sit idle, repairing and strengthening the destroyed Xilong City bit by bit. The city defense has now returned to at least 70% of the thickness of the city defense before the city was slaughtered.

But as time went by, it also indicated that the chances of the Zhu Yan Empire wanting to get back to Xilong City were getting slimmer.

Of course, at this time, Ouyang couldn't do anything, and Chen Ze naturally couldn't do it.

It is naturally not bad to be able to occupy more of the next main city level. At least in the future, Chen Ze will have a lot of credit for the Qingyang Empire.

So, today, a month later, the Qingyang Empire finally sent an envoy.

At this moment, a group of generals, headed by General Luo, gathered in the meeting hall of Xilong City, and everyone's eyes were on the purple-robed middle-aged man sitting at the top of the guest seat.

"Brother Luo, I didn't expect that we would meet here."

The purple-robed middle-aged man looked very kind, and had an excellent attitude towards Chief Luo. On the surface, he seemed to be a good old man.

President Luo also smiled slightly: "Brother Cheng, we haven't seen each other for some days."

"Isn't it?"

The middle-aged man in purple robes was called Cheng Hong, and his chest was rusted with the unique military rank mark of the Qingyang Empire. It seemed that his military rank was also a general figure.

He looked at Mr. Luo and smiled: "There is a reason why you haven't seen it for a long time. It's not because Brother Luo, you travel all year round~www.wuxiamtl.com~ But what I didn't expect from Cheng was that you actually went to Nantehang. Province came to be the supreme commander, tusk tusk, are you planning to go further?"

Chief Luo shook his hand and said: "Brother Cheng joked, don't you know what kind of person I am, my Luo family, where is there any further possibility?"

As soon as this remark came out, Cheng Hong was sluggish, and then he coughed twice, as if he was thinking of some past events, which made him look embarrassed.

"Brother Luo, I am not..."

Cheng Hong wanted to explain, but he could only speak. Chief Luo had interrupted him and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, you and I don't need to make this unnecessary explanation."

As soon as his voice changed, Mr. Luo thought for a while and asked: "Brother Cheng is here this time, but what instructions do you have at home?"

You must know that Cheng Hong, as the special envoy of the empire, had traveled all the way to the province of Nantes, naturally, he would not have come to greet Chief Luo. He came with new instructions from the Qingyang Empire.

When Cheng Hong heard the words, his face suddenly became straight. After scanning the generals in the hall, he said in a deep voice: "The generals came this time under the order of the empire to investigate the death of General Zheng!"
