The Era of Generals

Chapter 197   Integration

ten days later.

Chen Ze led 30,000 elite troops to slowly turn out from the mountain depression on the east side of Bo'an City, and turned back from the interior of Anluo Province to Bo'an City.

At this time, Bo'an City still had traces of the impact of the war, at least from the moment he set foot on the official road, the ground along the way was dotted with blood red.

Occasionally, you can even see corpses that haven't had time to be cleaned up being eaten by coyotes that have already turned red.

There was a rotten smell in the air, which was unbelievable.

But at the same time, the faces of the Bo'an soldiers who met along the way were full of excitement.

Yes, happy.

As the final winner of this battle, and it still ended with a big victory, the entire Bo'an City was plunged into a sea of ​​joy.

I completely forgot the pain of evacuating the whole city back then.

After retreating from the barracks, Chen Ze already knew that the battle was over.

The last million troops of the Zhu Yan Empire withdrew from Bo'an City. Chen Ze was the first to receive the news, so he was also the first to know that the battle was over.

And that's exactly what happened.

After withdrawing almost all the troops, Zhang Chengwang certainly blocked the road leading to Bo'an City from Anluo Province with his life in advance, but how long can he last?

A few days later, when Zheng Yuanyun found that the direction of Bo'an City had been silent, he felt suspicious, so he tried to send someone to clear the road.

Immediately he discovered that no matter what he was doing here, Zhang Chengwang was as stable as a rock on the top of the wall and would not do anything to stop him.

At the same time, the scouts in charge of the observation also found that although there were a lot of soldiers in Bo'an City, they were still much sparser than before, and the time for soldiers to change defenses was also significantly prolonged.

There are various indications that the defenders on Bo'an City do not seem to have as many as before, and they seem a little stretched.

Zheng Yuanyun gave the order to attack the city after listening to the opinions of the generals, especially Hua Lao's suggestion.

Sure enough, Zhu Yan's soldiers in Bo'an City only put up a white flag on the top of the city after only a symbolic resistance without making the attacking party spend any effort.

It was later discovered that this was Zhang Chengwang's will.

As early as when Zheng Yuanyun ordered the siege of the city, Zhang Chengwang drank the last glass of poisoned wine when his soldiers were not paying attention. At the same time, there was a letter under the wine jar.

The content of the letter is very simple, only four words: You can surrender.

………………………………………

"Master Chen, the Lord of the City is waiting here for you to make a young one. As long as you come back, you can go to the Mansion of the City Lord to have a talk at any time!"

Just approaching the city gate, after Chen Ze ordered someone to reveal his identity, a soldier in the guard uniform of the city lord's mansion rushed forward and bowed to Chen Ze.

With that attitude, it seemed that what he was facing was not a small counselor, but a senior officer at the level of the governor and the commander-in-chief.

Chen Ze was not surprised by this, after all, the ultimate success of this battle was due to his making suggestions.

So Xu Qing took the military aircraft token to the military aircraft office to return the seconded 30,000 elite soldiers, while he himself rode his horse in the direction of the city lord's mansion with a group of confidantes.

It is worth mentioning that before Zong Chengye led the army to break through, he spent a lot of military exploits on the general assessment for the eleven Xuanjia elites.

At that time, when they retreated, everyone hadn't woken up from the assessment, saying that he hadn't forgotten about these people, and ordered them to be carried away, which surprised the soldiers in charge of carrying them.

How big a heart is it to dare to go to the commander's tent to sleep soundly during the war, and not even wake up when he is about to retreat?

But since Chen Ze didn't say anything, they naturally didn't dare to ask more questions and just followed orders.

It wasn't until two hours after the troops withdrew that the eleven people woke up one after another.

Chen Ze was not disappointed, all eleven generals passed the assessment, and the Xuanjia elites who woke up were successfully taken under Chen Ze's account, which made him add eleven more hosts who could possess generals.

At this time, Bo'an City was busy.

In the end, it was a temporarily lost city. More than two million Zhu Yan troops entered the city. Although Zhang Chengwang's strict order was in place, no major damage was caused, but there were still small losses.

Especially some large restaurants, restaurants, etc., when they found that there was a shortage of food and grass, these places were the places where Zhu Yan's soldiers visited the most, but they didn't find a single grain of rice. That is also impossible.

Fortunately, when Hua Lao mobilized the people to evacuate the city before, he had promised that the officials of Bo'an City would be responsible for the basic losses of the evacuation of the city, and the people would not suffer too much loss.

Of course, these things had little to do with Chen Ze, he just felt a little emotional when he learned about his departure from the guards of the city lord's mansion who followed him.

One is that Bo'an City is so rich that it can afford such a huge compensation fee.

The second is the old China.

Who would have thought that an old drunkard who deliberately made things difficult for him back then would help him unreservedly in this incident.

Not only did he use his life as a guarantee for Chen Ze when he was in the city lord's mansion, he even did not hesitate to reveal his identity and persuaded the people in the whole city in the name of Qingyang Zhijiang.

For a famous general who has reached the pinnacle of military generals, fame may be ten times more important than his life, and this has also become a bargaining chip to help Chen Ze use his strategy.

It's impossible not to be moved.

To say that when he was in Xiyun City, Mr. Jing helped him more out of his own considerations, so what about Hua Lao?

What is Hua Lao trying to figure out about him?

Excluding the unknown general star system, among all the shining points that Chen Ze has revealed to the world, which one can compare with the two most precious things Mr. Hua gave for him?

No.

No matter what purpose Mr. Hua had, he really wanted nothing from Chen Ze, and he did everything he could to help Chen Ze.

If it wasn't for Hua Lao, it would be impossible for Zheng Yuanyun to adopt Chen Ze's strategy.

If it weren't for Mr. Hua, the people of Bo'an City would not have cooperated with the plan to evacuate the city.

We must know that after Zhang Chengwang entered the city, he really didn't find a single grain of rice.

For a huge main city like Bo'an City, this is simply an impossible task.

It is the name of Qingyang Zhijiang that makes the people have a kind of almost blind fanatical trust in Hua Lao, so that they can do their best to complete the task assigned by Hua Lao in a short period of time.

It can be said that Chen Ze was able to obtain such a huge share of military exploits, and Hua Lao definitely played a huge role in it.

So, how should he face Hua Lao after this?

He... can he still firmly maintain his principle of not taking sides easily?

Walking in Bo'an City, Chen Ze's mind was a little dazed.

After this battle, he suddenly found that when he looked at the world, he no longer started from the perspective of an outsider as before.

He felt that he... had gradually integrated into this strange world.
