Chapter 988 I can't stand it anymore

When the generals ordered left with their own troops, Xia Fan also took the Thirteenth Prince and other brothers, as well as the 50,000 troops to set off again for Xuantian Cliff.

After setting off again, although there were still many important cities and towns ahead, they did not suffer any strong resistance. Almost before they arrived, the city ahead had already sent people to surrender.

From this we can see that Shen Zhong's death had a great impact on the entire Divine Eye Kingdom, which was equivalent to breaking the backbone of the Divine Eye Kingdom at once. No wonder he knelt down directly.

From the people in the avatar, Xia Fan also heard some things about the changes in the Divine Min Kingdom.

Since Shen Zhong is very young and is a cultivator, and he may have other considerations, although he has many concubines, he still has no descendants.

In this way, after he was killed, the entire capital of the God Eye Kingdom had a quarrel over who would take over the position of the king of the God Eye Kingdom.

Originally, Shen Zhong's way of getting the position of the king of the country was not very glorious. Now that he is dead, some ministers think this is an opportunity to rectify the situation and start to recommend the people they support to inherit the position of the king of the country.

With more people, there are naturally more ideas, and there are as many as four or five people who are qualified to be the leader of the country. Therefore, conflicts arise and then become battles, which also makes the recent capital of the Shenmu Kingdom swaying and dazzling.

Regarding this situation, the officials who guarded the foreign herds' places were not only confused, but also worried and afraid.

In the face of the crisis, but there was still internal struggle. This was not a good thing in any case. Therefore, many officials were worried and desperate about the future of the Kingdom of God. After thinking about it, they chose to surrender.

If Shen Zhong was not dead or he had an heir, then many officials might even sacrifice their lives to fight Xia Fan. From this perspective, Shen Zhong's death did solve a lot of trouble for Xia Fan.

Without any decent resistance, Xia Fan's marching speed certainly accelerated a lot, but he successfully arrived at Xuantian Cliff in two days, and at this point he completely opened the line from Yunhuan Lake to Xuantian Cliff.

For Xia Fan, after doing these things, the things he needs to worry about are over. As for how to capture the remaining territory of the Kingdom of God and how to stabilize the court, he is not going to do it himself. Except for the generals under his command, the Thirteenth Prince will do the rest.

Since he made up his mind to train the Thirteenth Prince, Xia Fan must do it to the end.

But before Xia Fan really put down all military and political affairs and became the boss, three bad information were sent over.

First, the Holy Dragon Kingdom brazenly sent troops and began to openly invade the Shenmu Kingdom. It claimed to be Shen Zhong's death to the outside world. Long Xiaoshu was very sad. As his fellow disciple, he took this last resort to help the Shenmu Kingdom stabilize the dynasty as soon as possible. When the Shenmu Kingdom's dynasty is stable, he also killed Xia Fan to avenge Shen Zhong, he would return the territory to the new Shenmu Kingdom's lord.

These words that sounded high-sounding but were full of loopholes were clearly revealed, which made Xia Fan really admire the shamelessness of the Emperor's disciples.

Of course, Xia Fan would not sit idly by and thought about whether he would lead his troops to destroy Long Xiaoshu, and thus incorporate the Holy Dragon Kingdom into his own territory.

The second was sent by Lu Chuan, saying that Geng Qingping, the general of the Han Dynasty, leaped across the border under the banner of suppressing bandits, so he resolutely made a counterattack.

However, Geng Qingping's offensive is fierce at the moment, and Lu Chuan is almost unable to resist, so he has to ask Xia Fan for help.

Xia Fan had known about the Han Dynasty's small actions on the border for a long time. He was just focusing on the war in front of him and had no time to pay attention to it. Since Geng Qingping had invaded the border, he had reached the point where he could not handle it without handling it.

The third is the information sent by Zhao Wei and Liu Yulinglong, saying that the Han Dynasty sent the left prime minister Cao Shiping to Baocang Province. It seemed that the drunkard was not in wine, and the sword was aimed directly at Yong'an County, so they wanted to launch the previous layout in advance and ask him for advice.

Compared with the previous two pieces of information, Xia Fan was most concerned about the last one, because Zhao Yi and Liu Yulinglong were in Yong'an County at this time. The left prime minister Cao Shiping came in a fierce manner this time, and it is hard to guarantee that he was not going to go for them?

"It seems that we have to make some big moves to share their pressure." Xia Fan thought secretly.

Soon Xia Fan had an idea, secretly sent a few instructions to the old man in the middle of his mind, and then flew straight to the gravel river.

There is no water in the gravel river, there is only gravel of large and small sizes. I think a large amount of river water flowed here once, so so much gravel was brought from the upstream to settle here. But later, the river water broke out, so there was only a dry river channel that was more than ten miles wide and more than a thousand miles long, and gravel could be seen everywhere.

This river is also part of the border between the Lanyu Kingdom and the Han Dynasty. In the past, it was definitely a place where birds could not shit, but now more than one million soldiers are fighting here. Naturally, both sides are Lu Chuan, who has already joined Xia Fan and Geng Qingping, who came to "suppress the bandits" by Liu Xingchen's order.

Geng Qingping had nearly 100,000 cavalry under his command, and his attack power was quite extraordinary.

Lu Chuan knew that he would definitely suffer a great loss than fighting on the plains, so he tried every means to place the battlefield in this gravel-covered river.

If the cavalry wants to exert their due combat power, at least they must have enough space for the horse to gallop. It is obviously not possible in places like the Gravel River. Lu Chuan's move forced Geng Qingping to give up his advantage in cavalry and could only rely on the infantry to advance slowly.

Although Lu Chuan asked Xia Fan for help, the situation was not so bad that it was about to collapse. At most, he was at a disadvantage now.

The reason for this is not that the general Lu Chuan is incompetent, but that the soldiers and generals in his hands are not very powerful.

When Lu Chuan had just started a rebellion, he did have a strong elite soldier in his hand. At that time, Lan Haolin was like a flowing water. But just when Lu Chuan was about to destroy Lan Haolin, he did not expect the Divine Eye Kingdom to send troops, resulting in Lu Chuan's defeat.

After that great defeat, although Lu Chuan regrouped, the combat power of the soldiers and generals in his hand was no longer as good as before. Although after forming an alliance with Xia Fan later, Xia Fan took the elite troops route in the early stage, so he gave him a lot of remaining troops, which improved his strength.

But don't forget that the remaining troops Xia Fan picked were actually not very powerful, and it cannot be said that the old, weak, sick and disabled are almost the same.

Even if Lu Chuan had the ability, he would not be able to let such soldiers be transformed in a short period of time. Later, the Kingdom of Shenmu violated the border again, and Lu Chuan naturally led his troops to resist and fought over and over again, and the elite soldiers in his hands consumed a lot of them.

Even the soldiers and horses that Xia Fansai gave him were tempered in constant battles and their combat power was improved, but overall, Lu Chuan's combat power did not increase much.

In the past, when Lu Chuan attacked small countries such as Yunhe, Cangge, and Abte, he did not rely on how well the troops he had, but more because he had a large number of people and powerful people.

Because of this, when you need to face the army of the Han Dynasty led by Geng Qingping, when the advantage of the number of people becomes less obvious, the problem of Lu Chuan's weak combat power is completely exposed.

Fortunately, Lu Chuan has fought for many years and is very clear about how to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, so he can barely deal with it.

Although the situation is quite understandable, Lu Chuan knew very well that it was already in danger. If no reinforcements came, the situation of war could collapse at any time.

In response to this, Lu Chuan's original subordinates, such as Blood Thorn, Wei Zhong and others, could not help but have some discussions and complaints in private, and even suspected that Xia Fan was just waiting for death and wanted to get rid of them with Geng Qingping's hand. Otherwise, why did Lu Chuan's request for help have been handed over for so long, but there has been no reply yet?

Lu Chuan naturally understood his subordinates' dissatisfaction, but he was quite calm and restrained, and at the same time suppressing their resentment.

Although he was also anxious at this time, Lu Chuan had no resentment towards Xia Fan, and he would not suspect that he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him, because with Xia Fan's strength, if he really wanted to kill him, there would be no need to be such trouble, and it would be easier to do it directly.

"General, brothers are almost unable to withstand it. The soldiers of the Han Dynasty have already crossed the center of the gravel river. If they advance further, the front line will easily collapse. At that time, the soldiers will be defeated like a mountain, and even if they want to retreat, they will not be able to." A general with a blood-faced face hurried to Lu Chuan and whispered.

"What do you want to do?" Lu Chuan looked at him with a chilling look.

"If it doesn't work, let's retreat." The man lowered his head and said, "After we surrendered to Xia Fan, we destroyed so many small countries for him, and fought here for many days. It's worthy of him. Now we retreat, no matter where we go, at least the general has the capital to settle down. If there is no military force, how can we gain a foothold in the future?"

"So you're going to do it for me?" Lu Chuan sneered.

"Great General's clarification." The general also felt something was wrong with Lu Chuan's tone, but when he said this, he could not take it back, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Please think twice."

"If you really do it for my own good, you shouldn't say such words that disrupt the morale of the army. Instead, you should go back to the front line and take the troops to drive the enemy back." Lu Chuan stared at him and said, "He Feng, when you followed me to rush to the formation, you hit more than ten arrows in a row, blood flowing wildly, but where was the courage to rush to death?"

"General, I..." He Feng was excited and ashamed when he heard Lu Chuan talk about his past events. He suddenly stood up and said, "Please watch the general. I will drive the dogs from the Han Dynasty back. If... I have any mistakes, please ask the general to go to the Grand Marshal to ask why he refused to save him when he saw death!"

After saying this, He Feng saluted Lu Chuan and left with great strides.

"This person is a bit bloody, no wonder you protect him." When he spoke, Xia Fan appeared in front of Lu Chuan.
