The Era of Generals

In general, Chen Ze is still very satisfied with the legendary general.

Although in order to achieve the best results, there will be a lot of resources invested in the legendary general star, but what are the resources?

It's just for investment, to improve your own strength!

But right now, Chen Ze is not in a hurry to invest. After all, it is not a time of war, and it is not time for Zhao Yun to take action. At least until he reaches Bo'an City, he still has a lot of time to study how to invest resources.

Seeing that the time is almost up.

Zhao Yun's half-hour duration was almost up, and he and Li Quan'an had been out for so long, it was time to go back.

Immediately, Zhao Yun was taken back. Same as last time, Li Quanan's expression was in a trance for a while, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

The two of them went back to the place where the army was stationed. A logistics soldier had already brought the prepared lunch. After Chen Ze and Li Quan'an gobbled it up for a while, they ordered the army to move out.

After that, there was nothing to say all the way. After two days of rapid march, Bo'an City was in sight.

Looking at the city gate so close, Chen Ze couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

The last time he left Bo'an City, he had only a dozen people under his command, and he didn't even have a military rank at that time, and he was still running around for the promotion assessment.

Who would have thought that after going around all the way, by the time he returned to Bo'an, he would already be strong and strong. If it wasn't for the wrong timing, he would really feel like returning to his hometown.

The location of Bo'an City was originally a pass from Anluo Province to the outside world, and there happened to be a big gap in the rolling mountains extending from east to west. It looked like a thick city wall was suddenly missing. took a chunk.

In order to prevent the Zhuyan Empire from taking advantage of this pass, as early as hundreds of years ago, the Qingyang Empire spent a lot of manpower and financial resources to build Bo'an City according to this mountain.

After hundreds of years of development, Bo'an City, which was originally intended to repair the city walls of Anluo Province, has slowly developed into the largest and strongest super-large main city in the entire province.

Now that the army of the Zhuyan Empire is approaching the city, on the other side of Bo'an City, there are more than two million troops waiting in full force, and the formation is indeed mighty.

But on the inner side, the Bo'an City seen from a distance in the eyes of Chen Ze and others is like a sleeping giant, majestic and quiet, giving people a sense of security from the heart.

For hundreds of years, Bo'an City has never been breached, and this deep-rooted sense of security is not just a feeling.

When the army marched a hundred miles away from Bo'an City, there were gradually more open posts and secret posts along the way, which made He Xuan, who had only visited once not long ago, very puzzled.

Before he came to Bo'an City, including when he left, he didn't see so many guard posts. Obviously, he just added them after he left.

But you can't just add guard posts in the rear for no reason, right?

Presumably, Bo'an City must have learned about the enemy army in Anluo Province, but how did they know?

Because Zhu Yan's ambush had already been wiped out, and they were about to come to Bo'an City, they didn't send scouts to report the news first, so it was impossible for Bo'an City to get the news.

Unexpectedly, when He Xuan was wondering, Chen Ze was slightly relieved.

How did Bo'an City know?

Of course, he had already sent someone to deliver the letter to Bo'an City when he was still on the supply line of Xichuan City.

He didn't know anyone in Bo'an City, so this letter was sent directly to Mr. Hua at the Military Aircraft Office. In order to prove his identity, he also sent the original mission document together with the military aircraft order given by Mr. Jing, Mr. Hua's apprentice. The card was also handed over with the letter.

Now that there are more guard posts, it proves that Mr. Hua should have accepted his statement, and suggested to the city lord as the chief officer of the military aircraft, that's why he arranged so many open posts and secret posts.

From the moment he sent people from Xichuan City, Chen Ze was faintly worried, fearing that Mr. Hua, who was so depressed that he could only drink, would delay his business, so he specially attached another letter to the fat shopkeeper under Hua Lao. The letter provides a double guarantee.

At this time, I don't know whether it is the credit of the fat shopkeeper's persuasion or the fact that Mr. Hua still cares about state affairs in his heart. In short, the result is good from the current point of view.

With the secondment document issued by the Military Aircraft Office of Xiyun City and He Xuan at the same time, Chen Ze led the crowd unimpeded along the way. It only took half a day, and when the sky was dark, the army of seven or eight thousand people finally arrived in Bo'an City outside the door.

Compared with the calmness seen from a distance, when they walked to Bo'an City, everyone could feel that even the air was full of tense and dignified atmosphere.

There are temporary marching tents everywhere at the foot of the city wall, and the flags of the cities in Anluo Province are flying on the top of the tents. The east and west are in a mess, and there is no good planning.

Looking at these tents, Chen Ze understood.

Looking around, based on the size of this tent, it can be roughly inferred that the number of soldiers outside the city at this time may have reached 200,000 to 300,000.

Not much, but overflowing.

The barracks in Bo'an City has a huge military force of over one million stationed all year round. According to what Chen Ze observed when he went there last time, even if there are another 80 to 1 million troops, the Bo'an barracks can still accommodate them.

But there are still so many troops overflowing at the foot of the city wall, which can only show that the troops gathered in Bo'an City at this time have reached an extremely large number.

And from those flags, Chen Ze not only saw the affiliated cities belonging to Anluo Province, but also saw the flags of many neighboring provinces.

Thinking about the Zhuyan Empire's continuous increase in troops, Bo'an City was under tremendous pressure. Even with the two million troops in Anluo Province, the commander of Bo'an City still felt that it was not safe, so he sent a request for help to neighboring provinces.

This kind of troop concentration just proved Chen Ze's previous speculation that Zhu Yan Empire's strategy of encircling but not attacking was aimed at consuming a large amount of Bo'an City's supply resources.

Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that there will be a steady stream of reinforcements arriving. Once the overloaded Bo'an City logistics system cannot receive supplies from the rear, it may collapse at any time.

When he was observing, a horse galloped out from the city gate, and rushed straight to the garrison of Chen Ze and others.

"Brother Chen!"

Running close, the man on the horse shouted, it was the fat shopkeeper Xu Canling.

Seeing that it was him, Chen Ze even rode his horse forward a few steps, cupped his fists on the horse's back and said with a light smile, "Master Shenling, are you all right?"

Even though he was riding on a horse, this Xu Canling still had the air of a restaurant owner, he reined in his horse to return the gift, but said: "Brother Chen, we will talk about the polite words later, I, old Xu, have been waiting here for a long time. Come in with me now!"

Judging by his complexion, he looked a little more dignified during the war and less slick as a businessman. Occasionally, there was a hint of excitement in his slender eyes due to obesity.
