Chapter 209 60: Building a Nest Behind

No one takes Yancheng seriously, and no one takes Yancheng's new army seriously.

The new army of Yancheng has only more than 500 people at most, and the number of Yancheng's Zhenbei Army is only more than 100.

With such a small number of people, they are nothing compared to the 300,000-strong coalition force of 18 tribes in the northern border.

Although Yancheng has the chief general of Zhiguojing, Guo Xiaoding, how long can a Zhiguojing who is half buried in the ground continue to jump around?

The barbarian coalition completely looked down on Yancheng. There were only two things in their eyes.

One is to go south to the Imperial Shang Dynasty and try to take over some of its territories, preferably to seize and occupy Yongzhou.

The second is to become the actual ruler of the coalition forces.

The current actual leader of the coalition is Sung Yoo-ri.

Although Cheng Youwei was a hero with great courage, he was too old. It was difficult for Cheng Youwei, who was already half buried in the ground, to intimidate the Chanyu of other tribes and make them obey his orders completely.

Each of the Chanyu of the eighteen tribes in the northern border has his own ambitions and ideas. When faced with the orders of the alliance leader Cheng Youwei, they will not disobey them openly, but will always procrastinate and delay.

It was at Tianyong Pass that Chu Zhongxing learned the news that the barbarian coalition forces were marching southward.

However, when Chu Zhongxing rode a black donkey, traveled day and night for dozens of days, and crossed thousands of kilometers to return to Yancheng, he rode Guo Xiaoding's warhorse and led several Yancheng veterans from the Qi family to the place not far from the barbarian coalition of the 18 tribes in the northern border. The barbarian army had not yet set out to the south.

With such efficiency, Chu Zhongxing didn’t know for a moment whether there was a problem with the barbarian coalition or some other reason.

"Still setting up camp, no sign of heading south"

"Could it be that the player's news about the Barbarian Alliance marching south is false?"

Chu Zhongxing was a little unsure, so he used the Taoist technique of "Clairvoyance" to clearly see the tents of the barbarian coalition from more than 50 kilometers away.

The Taoist technique of "Clairvoyance" is said to be able to detect the enemy's situation across thousands of miles. It is one of the techniques that the military power faction must master.

But in fact, the [Clairvoyance] technique is far from the ability of the real "Clairvoyance". When Chu Zhongxing uses the [Clairvoyance] technique, he can barely see objects about 50 kilometers away.

Moreover, it cannot be very small, only large objects can be seen, such as people, tents, and flags.

The magic of clairvoyance is actually similar to the effect of a telescope.

If the spell [Clairvoyance] is upgraded to a supernatural power, it would be very powerful. Not only can you see ants thousands of miles away, but you can even see through some obstacles and get to the essence of things.

After using his clairvoyance to determine that the Barbarian Alliance was fifty kilometers away, Chu Zhongxing originally wanted to build a resurrection pool here.

But considering that the Barbarian Alliance would pass by the Resurrection Pool on their way south and destroy the extra Resurrection Pools in the desert, Chu Zhongxing took a deep breath and decided to take the risk of bypassing the Barbarian Alliance from the flank and building a nest behind them!
"Comrades, I want to bypass the barbarian coalition in the distance. Please follow me and protect me!"

"promise!"

Several veteran generals of the Qi family clasped their fists and obeyed the order, and the group rode on their war horses and began to circle around.

Even with the magic of clairvoyance, Chu Zhongxing could not tell how many troops the barbarian coalition had. When Chu Zhongxing led the Qi family to make a detour, they happened to run into a group of cavalry from the opposite side.

"New troops of Yancheng?"

"No, it's the Yancheng Chengbei Army. Go ahead, capture these Yancheng Chengbei Army soldiers alive!" The difference between the Yancheng New Army and the Yancheng Chengbei Army lies in their youth. When they saw the young man Chu Zhongxing, they subconsciously thought of the Yancheng New Army.

However, when they saw several white-haired old men around Chu Zhongxing, they realized that they were Yancheng's Zhenbei Army.

The barbarian coalition had captured several new troops from Yancheng, but had never captured the Yancheng Town Northern Army. Now seeing only a few Yancheng Town Northern Army, they rushed up howling.

"kill!"

Without Chu Zhongxing's order, several veteran generals of the Qi family around Chu Zhongxing rushed forward waving their weapons. This group of barbarian cavalry had more than a hundred horses, and they should have been easily defeated by Chu Zhongxing's few horses!
but!
The Zhenbei Army that guards Chu Zhongxing is composed of only a few Qi family members in Yancheng. The hundred cavalrymen are no match for the Qi family members in Yancheng.

In just a cup of tea, more than half of the barbarians' hundred cavalry were slaughtered, and the remaining few fled everywhere like stray dogs.

"We've been discovered by them. Let's speed up and bypass them!"

After killing more than half of the cavalry, spiritual energy surged in Chu Zhongxing's body and transformed into a cloud that wrapped around the hooves of the horses under the crotch of several people. Chu Zhongxing, who used the magical power of [Urgent Army Ahead], increased his speed by a lot.

Chu Zhongxing didn't know what tribe the barbarian coalition forces fifty kilometers away belonged to, but he didn't know whether the tribe's army was afraid of the reputation of Yancheng Town's Beijun Army or something, so they didn't send troops to pursue.

The garrison of the Barbarian Alliance was not completely locked down, but there was a huge buffer zone between each tribe, as if to prevent sudden attacks from other tribes.

Chu Zhongxing and his group safely bypassed the camp of the Barbarian and Yi coalition forces and arrived to the north of the camp.

This position is behind the barbarian coalition.

The target of the barbarian coalition is the Imperial Shang Dynasty, and they want to move south, not north.

"Keep going, fifty kilometers away from their base!"

Chu Zhongxing ran for more than 50 kilometers, and after making sure that there were no pursuers behind him, he stopped at a deep pit in the desert.

“Sweep the formation!!”

Chu Zhongxing ordered the soldiers of Qijiajing to raid the enemy camp, while he raised his hand and created a vast ocean in a deep pit in the desert.

The emerald green resurrection pool appeared in the desert, which was very abrupt and strange, but Chu Zhongxing didn't care. Just like there was an oasis in the desert, it was normal to have a pool of green water in a deep pit in the desert.

After using a magical power similar to Mohist's [A Single Tree Builds a House], Chu Zhongxing immediately rode on Guo Xiaoding's warhorse and led the Qijiajing soldiers to flee far away.

He created new resurrection pools every 500 kilometers behind the Barbarian Alliance.

Creating a new resurrection pool requires a huge amount of energy. After setting up three resurrection pools in a row, Chu Zhongxing has little energy left.

"We can also set up the last resurrection pool."

"This resurrection pool is best placed in a key location to create an unexpected effect!"

The territory of the Northern Frontier is vast. Chu Zhongxing came back this time to create more resurrection pools so that players can quickly approach the Barbarian Alliance after resurrection.

Chu Zhongxing led several Qijiajing soldiers from Yancheng Town's northern army to bypass the barbarian coalition's garrison. He set up three resurrection pools, which were only 50 kilometers away from the three barbarian coalitions. After the players were resurrected, they could quickly raid the barbarian coalition's garrison by relying on their legs. (End of this chapter)
