The Era of Generals

Chapter 312 - Error

If you want to go to Ketan City to replenish supplies, it's like touching Zheng Yuanyun's cake!

If it was Zheng Yuanyun who reached a joint agreement with Yan Haomiao, then Zheng Yuanyun might let Yan Haomiao into the city due to the friendship of his allies.

However, it was not Zheng Yuanyun but Chen Ze who signed the agreement!

Here, Zheng Yuanyun, who already had the idea of ​​suppressing Chen Ze, would never admit that Chen Ze had reached the cooperation with Yan Haomiao on his behalf.

Especially after Dongping City regained control of the border and rushed to build a fortification overnight.

Once this fortification is repaired, it is certainly beneficial to Fengqi Province, but why is it not also beneficial to the Qingyang Empire?

The fortification that Fengqi Province built to ensure its own safety also closed the gate connecting Nantes Province and Fengqi Province.

This means that, at least as far as the Fengqi Province is concerned, it has given up the opportunity to assist the Nantes Province, that is... to give up the Nantes Province.

So isn't this good news for Zheng Yuanyun who wants to take full control of Nantes province?

At this time, he went to help Yan Haomiao?

This is not safe.

What if Yan Haomiao fought hard to open the fortifications after receiving supplements, but then lost the battle and was defeated by Fengqi Province?

At that time, won't the closed door be opened again?

On the contrary, it will hinder Zheng Yuanyun's plan to seize the entire Nantes province.

As for Yan Haomiao's troops, Zheng Yuanyun could simply ignore them. Even if he explicitly rejected Yan Haomiao's request to enter the city to supplement, what could Yan Haomiao do?

Does he dare to counterattack the province of Nantes?

The Qingyang army in Nantes province is no longer what it used to be, and they will no longer be afraid of Yan Haomiao's 1.7 million army.

As long as he dares to fight, Zheng Yuanyun is confident that Yan Haomiao will never come back with the advantage of city defense!

Yan Haomiao, who did not dare to fight against Nantes Province, had only two options left. One was to continue to grit his teeth and stay near the border to confront the Zhu Yan Empire.

This is of course not bad, it is equivalent to Zheng Yuanyun having an extra army to help him defend the possible attack of Fengqi Province, and this army does not cost him a soldier, a food, and a grass, and he will pay for it after he dies. don't feel bad.

The second is that Yan Haomiao completely withdrew from Nantes province seeing that nothing could be done.

This Zheng Yuanyun will not worry.

Yan Haomiao left, he sent an army to cover the vacancy, after all, it was just to guard against the intrusion of Fengqi Province, considering the current situation, there is a high probability that Fengqi Province will not attack at this time. The province of Nantes is still in Zheng Yuanyun's pocket.

And because of Yan Haomiao's departure, it removed a nail in Zheng Yuanyun's eyes, so that he no longer had to worry about the unstable factors that came all the way from the Bailie Empire.

No matter how you look at it, Zheng Yuanyun will be the beneficiary, even if he does nothing.

Is there anything better than this?

That being the case, why did Zheng Yuanyun help Yan Haomiao so stupidly?

It's not bad if he doesn't fall into trouble!

While drinking wine with Xu Feng, Chen Ze analyzed the current situation in his mind. In the end, the face of Yan Haomiao who thought he was sure of winning appeared in his mind, and he could not help but sneer.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.

In Chen Ze's view, Yan Haomiao made at least three mistakes.

The first one is that he is too obsessed with Fengqi Province.

As the commander-in-chief of the Mohe Province of the Bailie Empire, Yan Haomiao's direct enemy is the Fengqi Province to which the Zhuyan Empire belongs.

The grievances between these two provinces are actually just like Anluo Province and Nantes Province, they are a pair of old enemies.

Back then, in order to fulfill his long-cherished wish of capturing Anluo Province, Zhang Chengwang spared no efforts of the whole province, and conspired to lay out a well-planned ambush plan, which greatly consumed the resources of Nantes Province, and was eventually defeated. After Chen Ze sabotaged the plan, the province of Nantes fell into a slump, and the Qingyang Empire captured the three main cities.

Although Yan Haomiao was not that extreme, but after learning about the differences in Nantes province, he immediately smelled the opportunity to take advantage of it, and then he led the army to come when everyone was still watching .

And it is precisely this that makes Yan Haomiao's eyes always fall on the Fengqi Province. For the Nantes Province, he wants to use his huge military strength as a bargaining chip, so that the Qingyang Empire has to cooperate with it .

So at that time, he didn't want to seize any city in Nantes Province in the past, because that way, he would no longer have the opportunity to negotiate with the generals of the Qingyang Empire who invaded Nantes Province.

In fact, from Chen Ze's point of view, Yan Haomiao should have had a better choice.

That is to take advantage of the Qingyang Empire's unstable foothold, first lay down a few cities, and then negotiate with the Qingyang Empire. Nantes Province and the two sides will each have half. Take half!

In this way, although neither party occupies the entire province, adding half to half, isn't the benefit equal?

What's more, whether it is Nantes Province or Fengqi Province, these are the administrative divisions of the Zhuyan Empire. After the fall of the two provinces, they fell into the hands of Bai Lie and Qingyang. They can actually re-divide and rebuild Two new provinces belonging to the two countries came out.

That was the best choice at that time.

It's a pity that Yan Haomiao's gaze was always limited to Fengqi Xingsheng, so that he missed the best escape route.

This is one, and the second is that he never thought that the person who could have the right to speak to the Nantes province at that time would be Chen Ze.

Due to various coincidences, Chen Ze, who was just a co-leader at that time, became the person who could best speak for the Qingyang Empire in Nantes Province, whether it was Yang Mingzhong's admiration for Chen Ze, or Luo Zongbing's support for him , allowing Chen Ze to decide some things on behalf of the Qingyang Empire at that time.

It's a pity that his commander is only temporary, and he himself is still being suspected and suppressed by Zheng Yuanyun at this time. His promise can only last until Zheng Yuanyun comes, and after he comes, everything will be handed over to Zheng Yuanyun. Yuan Yun made the decision, and Zheng Yuanyun would have a great possibility to mindlessly oppose Chen Ze's previous decision.

This is the second, and there is a third.

The third is that Yan Haomiao thinks too much.

On the one hand, he was arranging the matter of seizing Fengqi Province, but on the other hand, he was worried because of Chen Ze's displayed military talent, and wanted to kill him in the cradle.

In other words, he offended Chen Ze.

This was Yan Haomiao's biggest mistake.

If he hadn't been making trouble for Chen Ze everywhere, Chen Ze would not have chosen to contact Dongping City when he couldn't bear it anymore, and would drag Yan Haomiao into the water even if he didn't want to use this joint attack on Fengqi Province.

Now it seems that although Chen Ze is still staying on the shore, Yan Haomiao has already sunk into the water.
