1001. Chapter 1001 The Troops Are Approaching the City
Murong Zhan led 20,000 elite soldiers to approach Anhe City step by step. Chen Jun, who was standing on the city wall, thought that the opportunity had come, until he saw clearly the man in black armor. The strong wind raised the corners of his robe, and the Zhang Junmei's cold and cold face became clearer and clearer.
"Who is that?" Chen Jun's voice changed. "Isn't that the emperor of Jin State? Why is he here? Is he leading the troops today?"
"It's...it's him!" The people around Chen Jun were also frightened.
Facing Wang Qu is not the same as facing Mo Rongzhan. There is no way they can resist him.
"Quick, go find Lu Lingzhi!" Chen Jun shouted loudly, "Send the order and be sure to guard the city gate."
In this war that has not yet begun, Anhe City does not even have the courage to fight. When it sees the Jin Kingdom's army, it will only be on guard. The city gates are closed tightly, and they do not dare to open them and engage in a head-on battle with Murong Zhan.
Murong Zhan looked at Chen Jun on the city wall with deep and sharp eyes. He did not find Lu Lingzhi's figure. This was not surprising. With Lu Lingzhi's cunning, he would not show up today. He would only hide behind He was waiting in a corner of Anhe City. He did not really want to help Chen Jun, and now he would not come to meet him for the sake of Anhe City.
"Siege the city." Murong Zhan ordered coldly.
Ye Chunnan was right behind him. Hearing his order, he had already led his troops to rush forward, "Destroy the city!"
Arrows on the city wall were shot down one after another. The soldiers standing in the front row immediately used shields to block the attack and moved forward in an orderly manner.
"General, what should we do?" The soldiers on the city wall began to panic.
"So what if it's Mo Rongzhan, do we have fewer troops than him?" Chen Jun shouted loudly, as if this could increase his confidence.
These words did not increase the morale of the soldiers on the city wall for a long time. When Anhe City had 200,000 troops, Murong Zhan beat them to pieces.
"General, I can't find Mr. Ling. He...his room is empty."
"He must have known that the person leading the troops this time was Mo Rongzhan, so he slipped away." Chen Jun said bitterly, "I don't believe it. Without him, Lu Lingzhi would die."
"Then...what should we do now?"
Chen Jun gritted his teeth and said, "Go out of the city to fight!"
On the other side, Lu Lingzhi was not nervous at all. He was drinking tea leisurely in a remote teahouse, listening to Guan Jie come and tell him what was going on outside the city gate.
"...the people leading the troops from the Kingdom of Jin were the ones I saw in Xiliang that time." Guan Jie said, "There is also the one who is more powerful than me in martial arts. They are all here, and that fool has given the order to fight."
Lu Lingzhi listened with a smile. Others might not understand what Guan Jie was saying, but he did.
He said that the person leading the troops was Murong Zhan, whom he saw in Xiliang last time, and the person with better martial arts than him was Murong Ke. It seemed that Murong Zhan was bound to capture Anhe City this time. "Chen Jun has already wanted to Going out of the city to fight?"
Guan Jie nodded, "Will he win?"
Lu Lingzhi smiled mockingly, "No way, we can leave and wait until Murong Zhan enters the city."
"Brother, why didn't you help that idiot this time?" Guan Jie asked curiously.
"Since he is an idiot, there is no point in helping him." Lu Lingzhi said quietly, "Where are the others? Go meet them."
Guan Jie nodded, "Okay."
Lu Lingzhi smiled lightly, Mo Rongzhan... finally arrived, and it was almost time for them to meet.
…
…
After Ye Zhen watched Murong Zhan leave Xiazhou, she began to feel uneasy. She didn't know what would happen on the battlefield. Even though everyone said that Murong Zhan was invincible on the battlefield, he was not invulnerable. Although he was She had never lost a battle, but the scars on her body could be seen. Her heart ached every time she saw it. If possible, she hoped that he would not add any more wounds.
"Empress, are you going back?" Hongying asked in a low voice. The Queen had been standing here for a long time.
Ye Zhen nodded gently. Even if she stood here until dark, Mo Rongzhan would not come back so soon. "Well, let's go back."
Jian Jia said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty will definitely come back with a great victory. Now there is only Chen Jun in Anhe City. There is nothing to be afraid of when he leads troops to fight."
"It's not him I'm worried about." Ye Zhen whispered. She was worried that Lu Lingzhi, who was still in Anhe City at this time, might come up with some tricks.
Mo Rongzhan was already a very sinister and shrewd person, but she was still hidden by Lu Lingzhi for so many years, so she was still very wary of Lu Lingzhi.
Ye Zhen recalled Lu Lingzhi in her previous life. It seemed that before her rebirth, he was still trusted by Mo Rongzhan, although Lu Shuang'er was no longer favored by that time.
Speaking of which... it seemed that she hadn't remembered what happened when she was trapped in the palace for a long time.
When did Lu Shuang'er fall out of favor? And why did it fall out of favor? She couldn't remember it well, and it couldn't be said that she fell out of favor. Mo Rongzhan would still visit her occasionally. However, it seemed that it was because of Lu Lingzhi that Lu Shuang'er could continue to be a noble concubine.
What happened? No one should have told Mo Rongzhan the truth at that time. Didn't he always regard Lu Shuang'er as her childhood self? With his character, he couldn't easily dislike Lu Shuang'er unless he knew the truth.
Ye Zhen regretted that she shouldn't have just been immersed in resentment and didn't want to know more about Lu Shuang'er, so she always deliberately avoided it.
correct! Ye Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up. It was impossible for Mo Rongzhan to be easily controlled by others. Why was he afraid of Lu Lingzhi at that time?
"Your Majesty, watch your steps carefully." Hongying held Ye Zhen's hand. There were steps in front of her, but the Empress seemed to be thinking about something and didn't see the steps at all.
Ye Zhen came back to her senses, and her thoughts were interrupted. It wasn't until she got on the carriage that she thought about something again.
If Murong Zhan was afraid of Lu Lingzhi at that time, then there must be a threat to Lu Lingzhi that could not be solved for a while. But she was reborn in Lu Yaoyao, but Murong Zhan didn't notice it. Could it be because of her? Because of the relationship, Mo Rongzhan’s understanding of Lu Lingzhi is also different?
How did Lu Lingzhi gain so many followers in such a short period of time? Where did those people come from? This should be the threat that Mo Rongzhan perceived in the previous life, right?
"Where is Wu Chong?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, Wu Chong and Sun Jun will stay here to listen to your Majesty's orders. If your Majesty has any instructions, I will call them here," Hongying said.
Ye Zhen nodded slightly, "Let them come to see me later."
If Lu Lingzhi is still in Anhe City, he must be very confident that he can avoid Murong Zhan's pursuit. Why does he have such confidence? She must find out what hidden secrets Lu Lingzhi has behind them that none of them know.
At this point, she had to admit that she still underestimated Lu Lingzhi from the beginning.
