Chapter 116 Avalanche

"Second brother!"

"younger brother!"

After hearing the news, Zhou Dehua and his group rushed over. After seeing Zhou Defang's body, several brothers were exposed to their sadness.

"Defang! Why did you leave like this?

I have said a long time ago that you won’t let you go, you insist on going! Now, you and Changsheng can get together in the midst of the nine springs, but what should we live do?”

Zhou Dehua couldn't help but sigh to the sky and burst into tears.

This ambush mission was supposed to be Zhou Dehua leading his troops, but Zhou Changsheng's death made Zhou Defang feel in pain. Any dangerous task must be the first to lead. Zhou Dehua couldn't resist it and could only rely on Zhou Derong. Unexpectedly, Zhou Derong's departure turned into a farewell forever.

"Second brother! Why are you so hard in your life!"

Zhou Deqiang, Zhou Dekui and Zhou Derong were also sad and angry. Several brothers held Zhou Defang's body and howled repeatedly.

Zhou Changlin, Zhou Changlong and Zhou Changjiu stood aside and remained silent, but Zhou Ziqi couldn't help but sobbed.

"I'm thinking."

Master Zhou sat in the main seat, with wrinkles on his face huddled together, and his eyes were full of loneliness, "This time, our Great Zhou attacked Qin State. Although on the surface, we have gained a lot and killed countless enemies, but what about it?"

"Since we entered the Qin territory, countless casualties, when we came, millions of troops were proud and powerful, but now, there are only more than 200,000 troops left, and the rest are all surrendered soldiers. Am I not suitable to be this commander?"

"This attack on Qin State should have been smooth sailing. Because of my commander's mistakes, I was frequently persecuted by the enemy. What qualifications do I have to sit in my current position?"

Master Zhou looked at his sons and said lightly: "Tell me the order to withdraw the troops, and the entire army will evacuate the Fenghuang Mountain and Longxi areas, and enter the reinforcements."

"yes!"

Although Zhou Dehua and his brothers were extremely sad and angry, they still conveyed Master Zhou’s orders truthfully.

Now, the troops they have, let alone taking Qin, will even take down Lingcheng. If Yang Chenglin hadn't been worried about the reinforcements that the Great Zhou might arrive at any time, their army might even be surrounded and suppressed by Yang Chenglin at any time.

After Qin Ming and Chu Han heard that Master Zhou was about to retreat, they walked together and came to Master Zhou's general tent angrily. Their people were almost dead. Why did Master Zhou retreat if he wanted to retreat?

Master Zhou’s explanation was, “After now fighting, I suddenly realized that I may not be suitable to lead troops to attack Qin State, wait for reinforcements, and wait for generals who are better than me to come and command.”

Failure is not terrible. After the terrible failure, I don’t know how to summarize the lesson. Master Zhou often wonders what caused the army of the Great Zhou to be unable to advance. After fighting for so many months, he had to retreat again in the end. Was it his command error?

Maybe there is! But Master Zhou felt that the main reason for his failure was the battle to defend the Mingcheng led by Yang Yanzhao.

If Yang Chenglin led the army of Dazhou to guard the Lingcheng from the beginning, a great battle would inevitably break out on the land outside the Lingcheng, and the Great Zhou might be defeated, but as long as you retreat to Fenghuang Mountain and Longxi, because it is relatively close to the Warcraft Mountains, Dazhou can make a comeback at any time.

But unexpectedly, Yang Yanzhao was bold and took the initiative to not ask Qin to send even a single army to help. He relied on the troops of the Honghe Province to defend, which gave him a feeling of losing all his strength and could only give up attacking Lingcheng. However, unexpectedly, after giving up attacking Lingcheng, Lingcheng and Huaicheng formed a two-headed snake situation, which led to the fact that he had to retreat after the battle in the Longzhong Plain.

"Maybe from the beginning, it was a mistake."

Master Zhou couldn't help but sigh: "If I didn't want to win and lose in Lingcheng and Qin State, I would hurry up and advance. If I take down a city, it would be a city. If I can't fight, I'd be called reinforcements, how great it would be!"

If that was true, Yang Yanzhao ignored leaving Qin and going to Chu for help. In this way, the Great Zhou would not be attacked by the Chu army, and the Great Zhou reinforcements would not have been delayed for so long and had not arrived yet.

Whenever he thought of this, Master Zhou felt that he was seriously guilty. After leading his troops to the Fenghuang Mountain and Longxi areas with bare hands, he stopped all his strategic ideas and prepared to lie in bed to retire, but he didn't expect that at this time.

"Boom!"

A sudden loud noise made the whole earth tremble.

"What happened?"

Master Zhou hurriedly got up and asked loudly: "Guards, guards, what happened? Did Yang Chenglin lead his troops to fight?"

"Boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another loud noise suddenly came, and the earth shook violently again, and the war horses in the military camp made a cry of sorrow.

"Report!"

At this moment, the messenger rushed into the military tent with a roar, "It's not good, the commander, it's avalanche, it's bloody! The passage we dug out in the Warcraft Mountains was destroyed."

"What!"

Hearing this, Master Zhou almost passed by without breathing, "How is that possible!"

"Commander, it's absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you can come out and see it yourself!"

The messenger was so nervous that it was not only him, but the entire Great Zhou army was completely panicked.

Looking around, the mountain range of unstoppable in the distance was swarming with large swaths of snow. The mountain range of monsters, which was originally only in the upper half, was covered with snow in an instant.

The snow was still falling at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the Warcraft Mountains were surrounded by snow almost instantly.

And then… “Swoosh!”

The cold air spread, and the temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees throughout the Honghe Province and even further away. The whistling cold wind made the soldiers tremble, and ice flowers condensed on their eyebrows.

"how so?

how so!"

After Master Zhou went out to see the avalanche, he widened his eyes and shouted: "Why is there such a large-scale avalanche?

Why!"

The Warcraft Mountains are located between the Great Zhou and Qin, and their history can be traced to thousands of thousands of years. Over the years, although every winter, the Warcraft Mountains are covered with snow and occasionally some small-scale avalanches occur, large-scale avalanches like this have never happened.

"Go and check it out quickly! Why are you standing there one by one?"

Master Zhou hurriedly scolded the commander guards beside him.

"yes!"
