"Although I have not joined the Red Eyebrow Sect, I can indeed be regarded as a disciple of the Taoist Zen Academy. Otherwise, I would not have been secretly helping you all these years. When I come in front of Heavenly Master Gong Liang, you would just treat me as Junior Brother Chou Nu." Chen Hai He would not tell Le Yi all the truth, but he knew that he needed something convincing, so he exposed his right wrist and let the snake bracelet appear.
Confirmed by Ning Chan'er's eyes, Le Yi grabbed his hair in pain.
The 27th Route Qin Wang Army fought far away from its base, so it was naturally impossible and unqualified to accept the surrender of the Black Yan Army; If something unexpected happens, who can handle it
Liquan is so important that Chen Hai gave up the Juquan Lake sand mine and shared it with the nine world lords. At the same time, he also ensured that the Xiyuan Army and Su Wei Army received a sufficient supply of cheap quenched iron to maintain the current delicate situation. balance.
The second possibility is that Yun Mengze can no longer verify the authenticity of the news, which means that the Great Celestial Master Gong Qing is not in retreat this time, but has had other accidents.
Since he can pretend to be a direct disciple of the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing and enter Ganquan Mountain, he is not afraid that the news will spread back to Yunmengze and be exposed. This can only explain two possibilities.
In Le Yi's eyes, Chen Hai has the ambition to swallow the sky, but as the Black Yan Army is about to be destroyed, the situation in Yanzhou will become more complicated and strange. He believes that Chen Hai will not be able to conquer Qintong Mountain at this time. What a taboo move, but why did Chen Hai follow Ning Chan'er to Ganquan Mountain
"How should I explain Chen Shuai's identity to my uncle and the others?" Le Yi asked again.
When Ning Chan'er said that the so-called ugly slave brother in front of him was Chen Hai, Le Yi was shocked and delighted.
Of course, the Xiyuan Army would never sit back and watch the Black Yan Army surrender to the Huben Army.
If the Black Yan Army does not want to be completely destroyed in Heyang, there are not many opportunities to break out now.
The best way is to completely eliminate the two million Black Yan Army in Heyang. Only the dead are not afraid of threats in this world.
More importantly, the Huben Army and the Xiyuan Army are on guard against each other. If the Huben Army does not move, the Xiyuan Army will never stay away from Yanjing. If the Huben Army and the Xiyuan Army advance north at the same time, the eight tribes in Jingjun will worry about Wenbo. The power of Yanran Palace led by Yuan will expand excessively in Yanjing.
Chen Hai was speechless. He was more of a spectator at this time. It was up to Le Yi and Ning Chan'er to make decisions on these matters. He thought that Gong Liang and others knew that the Great Celestial Master Gong Qing had passed away, so they should not come back. Let’s imagine that we can win another big victory in Ha Duang.
What's more, after he stole the book and escaped from Leiyang Valley and went to his uncle Gong Liang Tianshi, Chen Hai did not clean up the army, so no one was implicated because of Le Yi, which made Le Yi feel much more at ease.
Chen Hai guessed that this was the key reason why Le Yi was driven to Songxi Valley to do nothing. Not many people in the Black Yan Army agreed with his idea of "escape", and he wanted to go his own way. The final result was that he was emptied of military power.
The Black Yan Army is fierce in appearance and weak in appearance, but it is precisely because it is too powerful on the surface. There are two million people in Heyang County, so there is no chance to surrender at this time!
"how so?"
After that, the Xiyuan Army must unite the combat forces of various clans to attack Qintong Mountain with all their strength, and use all means to recapture Liquan.
He obviously misunderstood Chen Hai's intention to enter Ganquan Mountain this time, and it's no wonder that Le Yi misunderstood. In his opinion, if Chen Hai didn't have greater ambitions, how could he follow Ning Chan'er into Ganquan Mountain alone
Even though the Red Eyebrow Sect could have thousands of elite members at this time, under the leadership of Le Yi, who sneaked into Liquan and took refuge in the Tianji Academy, he was able to form a hundred thousand elite combat forces as quickly as possible and seize the power from the nine world lords. Recapture Liquan, then control Tongbei Prefecture and Nanzhang Prefecture, go west to Qintong Pass to threaten Yanjing, force the Xiyuan Army to retreat, and break the siege of the Black Yan Army, but what happens next
"Celestial Master Gong Liang has not considered the possibility of retreating to the north?" Chen Hai asked.
When Chen Haizheng was thinking about his words, Le Yi's expression changed again. Even though he knew that no one would hear their conversation in the room, he subconsciously lowered his voice and asked Ning Chan'er: "Is Master in retreat this time? "
"I left without saying goodbye in Leiyang Valley, and I asked Chen Shuai to punish him." There are few people in Le Yi's life who truly admire him from the bottom of his heart, and Chen Hai is one of them.
Le Yi looked at Chen Hai and said: "Instead of catching the whole Black Yan Army off guard after the sudden revelation of Master's enthronement, it would be better to meet Uncle Master and Grandma He in advance, so that they might have some time to prepare for a northward retreat..."
Once this balance is broken, Tianji Academy will become the target of public criticism. At this time, Chen Hai is not arrogant enough to dare to be the enemy of the world.
Chen Hai smiled bitterly, thinking that the Taoist Zen Temple had such a profound foundation back then, but was breached by the Ying family, and suffered the loss of not having a territory. It is not difficult to imagine that in the minds of Tianshi Gongliang and other remaining disciples of the Taoist Zen Institute, the concept of territory How important it is, so I gritted my teeth this time and wanted to hold on to the territory.
If he had known Le Yi's plan earlier, Chen Hai would not have come to see him and should not have given him any illusions about this kind of thing.
Seeing the uncontrollable horror in Le Yi's eyes, Chen Hai knew that Le Yi had guessed the death of the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing. He just sighed softly, and neither he nor Ning Chan'er said anything.
Ning Chan'er showed another snake bracelet to Le Yi and said, "This is the bracelet given to me by Master before his death. Master has long suspected that Chen Hai has a deep connection with Taoist Zen Temple. Only then did he show it to Le Yi." Before I die, let me take this bracelet and go to Liquan to find Chen Hai..."
Le Yi smiled bitterly, he understood what Chen Hai meant.
From Le Yi's answer and forlorn expression, Chen Hai guessed that it was Tianshi Gong Liang and other core figures of the Red Eyebrow Sect who firmly refused to give up Heyang's defense line.
Chen Hai glanced at Ning Chan'er. In order to deceive him when he was in Li Quan, the witch deliberately did not tell the most difficult part of the Black Yan Army.
Abandoning Heyang County seems to significantly reduce the territory controlled by the Black Yan Army. However, the farming in the northern part of Heyang County has long been abandoned, and holding on to it will not provide more support to the Black Yan Army. The main force of the Black Yan Army is The best strategy is to retreat to Yanmen County and force the Xiyuan Army and Huben Army to significantly lengthen their front lines.
Le Yi was so shocked that he couldn't believe what he saw.
In recent years, Le Yi, as one of the core generals of the Black Yan Army, has led his troops to fight in the Heyang and Lichuan areas. Chen Hai has been silently observing him and knows that there is no problem with his strategic vision.
"No." Le Yi said.
Seeing Le Yi's appearance, Chen Hai felt a little more relaxed, knowing that Le Yi should know clearly that it would not make much sense to drag Tianji Academy in at this time.
Le Yi had never seen the snake bracelet next to Gong Qing with his own eyes, but every time Gong Qing issued an order to Heyang, he would stamp it with the snake bracelet to show the difference; this was the knowledge of the highest-ranking general of the Black Yan Army. The secret seal obtained.
"What can Chen Shuai do if he can't bear it?" Le Yi did not question Chen Hai's intentions. He just asked with a wry smile, "If it were possible, I would have already advised you to abandon the Ganquan Mountain and Songpan Ridge defense lines and shrink the front line to Look for fighter opportunities in Yanmen County instead of wasting time with powerful enemies in Ganquan Mountain and Songpan Ridge..."
This is not a question of whether he has ambition, but whether he has the strength to do it.
Ning Chan'er's feelings for other people were very weak, but when she thought of the death of the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing, a trace of pain flashed through her eyes.
Le Yi moved back slightly, leaned down on the ground, and kowtowed to Chen Hai to show his gratitude and guilt over the years.
"Perhaps there is no need to hide Master's death from Uncle Master and Granny He any longer," Ning Chan'er said.
Therefore, Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er went to Ganquan Mountain to check out the situation, on the premise that Tianji Academy would not be dragged in.
Seeing Le Yi like this, Chen Hai felt an even bigger headache. He didn't know how to explain to Le Yi that he was not as ambitious as he expected when he followed Ning Chan'er into Ganquan Mountain.
After a while, Le Yi calmed down a little, but looked at Chen Hai with confusion in his eyes and asked: "Since Chen Shuai knows that the Great Heavenly Master has passed away, why does he still come to Ganquan Mountain?"
"As soon as the news of the death of the Great Heavenly Master comes out, the Huben Army, the Xiyuan Army and the 27th Route Qinwang Army will swoop in like tigers and wolves and tear into pieces the two million soldiers of the Black Yan Army stationed in Songpan Ridge and Ganquan Mountain. , two million generals don’t even have a chance to surrender." Chen Hai took off his mask, looked at Le Yi, and said slowly, "I don’t have the ambition you expect when I come here this time, I just can’t bear to see it. The two million Black Yan army generals in Heyang died without a burial place."
The first possibility is that the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing knew about his counterfeiting, and it may even be directly arranged by the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing. When the news spread back to Yunmengze, the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing would naturally help cover it up, but Is there something that requires Chen Hai to pretend to be a close disciple of the Great Heavenly Master and enter Ganquan Mountain
Even if he can form a tiger and wolf army to go east from Qintong Pass to threaten Yanjing and force the Xiyuan Army to withdraw from the siege, it will still be difficult for the Black Yan Army in Heyang to escape the fate of disintegration as long as the news of the death of the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing spreads. .
However, most of the generals of the Black Yan Army were unwilling to give up the territory they had worked so hard for several years, and even fantasized about having a miraculous victory like the Battle of Huang Miyuan to reverse the current situation.
In order to solve the crisis of the Black Yan Army, the first plan discussed by Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er was to put the Black Yan Army further away from Yanjing. However, the war potential was obviously at a disadvantage, but they had to fight in Ganquan Mountain and Songpan Ridge. Confronting the Huben Army and the Xiyuan Army head-on is the stupidest thing to do.
This is the knot that even Le Yi can't untie.
In his early years, he was only a registered disciple of the Great Celestial Master Gong Qing. He had not been taught the true secrets of Xuanfa by Gong Qing for a long time, and there was no deep relationship. His pain at this time was due to the fact that he knew what this incident meant to Heyang. How big the impact of the Black Yan Army will be.
The power controlled by Tianji Academy is still too weak.
If the conjecture is correct and Taoist Zen Temple was really founded by Zuo Er, then in terms of seniority, Chen Hai must be considered the great uncle of Le Yi and Zong Chan'er.
If this drags on, even if the Great Heavenly Master Gong Qing survives, the Black Yan Army will be dragged down sooner or later.
