In late March, the weather in Runzhou has become warmer. In the small town on the border of Runzhou, Chu Ling stood on the city tower and looked into the distance, smiling and said, "The peach blossoms in Shangjing must be in full bloom now, right?" There is a peach forest not far outside the small town. When they first arrived here, they could see a bright red on the city tower, but now they are only a tender green on them.

Zhu Yaohong, Duan Yun and Feng Sibei, who were standing beside her, said with a smile, "Indeed, Shangjing is still much colder than Runzhou after all." The climate of Runzhou is actually closer to the south, after all, it is only separated by Lingcang River. However, one in Jiangnan and the other in Jiangbei seems to be two worlds. One in prosperity and peace, and the other in chaotic times.

Zhu Yaohong has only been a few months since she left Shangjing, but it seems that she has changed a lot. She put away the colorful jade clothes of the past, and she was wearing a black piece and soft armor with her hair simply tied up, which seemed to be clean and neat. The battle on the battlefield for more than a month has made her feel a little more murderous. If the old friend of Shangjing was standing in front of her at this time, she would be afraid that she would not recognize that the heroic female general in front of her was the charming and enchanting Concubine Yao.

Chu Ling raised his hand and gently stroked the scarred city wall. This small city was taken back from the Clan people half a month ago. So far, there was no Clan soldiers in the entire Runzhou area. But this was just the beginning, and everyone expected that the more they would be more difficult.

Duan Yun looked at Chu Ling and said, "With General Xiao and General Feng here, the people of Northern Jin were afraid that they would be unable to counterattack Runzhou for a while. What are the princess' plans for the next step?"

He smiled and said, "General Feng will lead his troops to Huizhou soon. Sibei, are you going to travel with General Feng? It is a good story to go to war with his father and son?"

Feng Sibei quickly shook his head and said, "The last one will follow the princess!"

Duan Yun knew, "The princess is planning to attack the front line of Runzhou, Xinzhou and Huizhou Liancheng, and then attack north together? Will the busyness be too long?" Chu Ling shook his head and said, "No, there is Cangyun City."

Duan Yun frowned and said, "Cangyun Army has always been brave. These days, it has passed Liangzhou and headed north. Now it is in a stalemate with the people of the Cangyun. I'm afraid..." Chu Ling said, I know what you are worried about. The soldiers and horses of the Cangyun Army who withdraw from Northwest and Runzhou will take the opportunity to seize Liangzhou and cut off the Cangyun Army's retreat. But the Cangyun Army's combat power is indeed extraordinary. They are vanguards, but their momentum is enough to shock the Cangyun people. If they are allowed to trap Liangzhou step by step, it would be too wasteful." Cangyun Army was like a sharp arrow, like a bamboo stabbing the enemy's heart!

Duan Yun thought for a while and said, "What the princess means...we will guard Liangzhou for them?"

Chu Ling gestured on the city wall with his fingers, sighing, "Our soldiers and horses in Xinzhou, Runzhou are approaching 800,000, but we cannot attack like the Cangyun Army. These soldiers were originally prepared to garrison Liangzhou. Compared to Runzhou, Liangzhou is the place where we really need to be careful to garrison."

Duan Yun stared at the place where Chu Ling passed by on the city wall. He clearly had nothing, but he seemed to really see a map. After pondering for a moment, he said, "You can go to the southeast and northeast to enter the palace, retreat to Runzhou, defend Cangyun City, and even if you are surprised, you can cooperate with Cangyun Army and Western Qin Army in the northwest?"

Chu Ling nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad."

Duan Yun frowned and said, "If this is the case, the night in Liangzhou will not be small. After more than a month of fighting, the people of Northern Jin should come back to their senses. I am afraid that the next step is to send a large army to attack Liangzhou." Feng Sibei next to him couldn't help but interrupt, "Even so, the garrisons in Runzhou and Xinzhou are not wood. Besides, what the people of the Cangyun Army should really worry about now is right?"

Zhu Yaohong also said, "Previously, Tuoba Zan and Su and Mingguang were in disagreement, so the young master got a bargain. This time, the people of the Clan must have learned this lesson."

Chu Ling said, "The pressure is indeed quite high in the future. At this point, the internal disputes between the Clan will temporarily calm down. At that time... there are still many generals who can conquer warriors in the early years." This is the case in this world. If there is no external threat, everyone can often fight to the death. But sometimes once the external threat is too powerful, the disputes that originally felt as if they are not dead will be less important.

This is even more true for the people of the Clan. They would not have known that the Apocalypse wanted to drive them out of the Central Plains. If they wanted to lose this piece of fat that had just been swallowed, they would inevitably be unprecedentedly united.

"Baili Qinghong..." Feng Sibei said a little melancholy.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "Do you think Baili Qinghong went to the Northern Jin Dynasty to do a detailed work? At this point, his fate has been tied to the Northern Jin people. It would be no benefit for him to perish the Northern Jin Dynasty." Feng Sibei was a little disappointed, but felt it was reasonable, so he had to sigh and stop talking.

Zhu Yaohong asked, "Who are the princess planning to take to Liangzhou?"

Chu Ling turned his head and thought for a moment, and smiled and said, "General Feng has gone to Huizhou. In Xinzhou and Runzhou, only General Xiao Shi will stay." Duan Yun shook his head and said, "Liangzhou is dangerous, General Xiao Shi may not be willing to stay. What's more, the princess can actually trust more... u General Zheng and the others." Chu Ling sighed helplessly and said, "I don't trust them, just..."

Duan Yun smiled and said, "I understand what the princess means. They are out of the city and... they may not be very talented in leading troops to fight. If they meet a strong enemy, they are afraid of their lives. But the princess... If they don't give them a chance, you will never know whether they can do it." Chu Ling smiled slightly bitterly and said softly, "I am just an ordinary person after all, and I can't be able to see everything clearly at all times. You are right... I will talk to my elder brother and the others first."

Although she and Zheng Luoye Erniang and others often meet each other over the years, Chu Ling regards them as much as ordinary people. Not only because they met when they were in the dark, but also because they gave her family the warmth when she first arrived in the loneliest place. Since she recognized the identity of Xiaowu in Heilongzhai, she really regarded them as her brothers and sisters.

However, after Duan Yun's reminder, Chu Ling had to consider whether his vague worries and selfishness had restricted their development? Di Jun had complained before that he was unlucky and could never meet the real elite of his enemies, and it seemed that he would end up with others every time.

Duan Yun nodded when she saw that she figured it out. After pondering for a moment, he whispered and reminded softly, "Princess, no one is sure to survive on the battlefield. You don't have it either." People will definitely die if they go to the battlefield, it's just to see who is more lucky and more capable. If the princess really can't accept the sacrifice of the people close to her at all, then it's better to send all these people back to a safe place in Pingjing as soon as possible.

Chu Ling sighed and said helplessly, "Cousin, I understand, thank you for your advice."

Duan Yun smiled and said, "I know the princess will figure it out."

Chu Ling rolled her eyes and said, "I have figured it out, but I don't know if I can figure out my own affairs."

Duan Yun was stunned and quickly said, "I have nothing to understand."

"..." OK, just be happy.

Before leaving, Chu Ling personally had a deep conversation with Zheng Luo and Ye Erniang who came to meet them. Although Chu Ling's protection of the people in the Heilongzhai was not obvious, he could actually feel it as smart as Dou Yang and Ye Erniang. As for Zheng Luo and Dou Yang, they didn't think much about it, but they were very happy that Chu Ling wanted to give them important tasks. They were even more prepared for the sacrifice on the battlefield. In Zheng Luo's words, if they were greedy for life and fear of death, it would be better to hide in the mountains and be a bandit and wait for peace before coming out.

So, it was finally decided that Chu Ling would take 200,000 Shenyou Army to Liangzhou after the integration. Yu Fanzhou, Zheng Luo and others stayed to stay in Xinzhou and Runzhou. Feng Zheng personally led a 300,000 army to Huizhou. Although Chu Ling's original intention was to hope that Xiao Xi would stay in Runzhou or follow Feng Zheng to Huizhou, it was a great help, but it was unanimously opposed by everyone. After all, except for 200,000 soldiers and horses Chu Ling brought to Liangzhou, there were only young people like Feng Sibei, Huang Jingxuan, Shangguan Yunru, or women like Zhu Yaohong who had never been on the battlefield. As for Xiao Yan'er and Yu Nishang, they were just following them to make soy sauce. If Xiao Xi had not followed, Xiao Yan'er might not even bother to fight this soy sauce. In this regard, Chu Ling felt that male sex was misleading, and there was no human nature to the opposite sex.

After Chu Ling and his group marched all the way to Liangzhou, the Cangyun army far in Ningzhou was in fierce confrontation with the people of the Cang tribe.

In the Cangyun Army's tent, several generals stepped into the war with stern eyes and dust. They had just returned from the battlefield and had not even had time to change their clothes. But now everyone looks similar, and no one can laugh at each other.

Han Tianning had just had a blood mark on his young face. He didn't care and turned around and complained to Shen Huai who was following behind, "Are these barbarians crazy? They almost scratched the general's face like mad dogs." Shen Huai twitched his lips and said, "Be careful, you are young, it's nothing to lose your appearance. If your pair of tricks are gone, you will be happy." Han Tianning was embarrassed to say that he was a mad dog, and he was not much better than others on the battlefield.

Shen Huai next to him smiled and said, "Can those people not be in a hurry? The entire Liangzhou has been lost in just over a month. If it were usual... According to the military law of the Clan, losing land would have to be beheaded." Even ordinary soldiers were inevitably punished, and even parents, wives and children would be implicated. "Now, the Clan members probably don't have the intention to punish them on a large scale. After all, the Clan's military strength is insufficient and they still have to fight.

When Han Tianning mentioned this, he was immediately happy, "The people of the Clan are not very good either."

"Be careful, let's use the power of the city to attack Liangzhou. If there wasn't a Shenyou Army in Runzhou to restrain the deterrence, you can try it." Wars have never been a brave man, and this kid is still too young and impulsive.

Han Tianning was a little unhappy, "Old Shen, you can destroy your own dignity with others."

"What are you saying?" Jun Wuhuan came in from outside. He was wearing black and silver armor, and looked much more decent than everyone else, but he was still full of solemn aura that had not yet retreated. It was obvious that he had just returned from the battlefield. Behind him was a taciturn Nangong Yuyue dressed like snow.

Logically speaking, the dignified Cangyun City Lord brings the Northern Jin State Master by his side will inevitably cause discussion and uneasiness. But now everyone in the world knows that Nangong has done a shocking task in Shangjing, almost destroying the Tuoba family. How could the people in Cangyun City still have any objections to him? For example, when Chen Huai was so calm and cautious, Han Tianning almost treated Nangong Yuyue as his own city lord to be placed in the Northern Jin Dynasty.

"City Lord." Everyone hurriedly bowed to the ceremony.

Jun Wuhuan waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and he just walked to the main seat. Nangong Yuyue was not polite at all. She found a corner and squatted. No one knew what he was thinking. Everyone had long been used to his appearance and didn't care.

"Tell me, what do you think about today's war?" Jun Wuhuan asked.

After a moment of silence in the tent, Chen Huai said in a deep voice, "The people of the Clan just lost Liangzhou. I heard that the war practice failed in Runzhou has failed, so I am afraid that we will breathe a sigh of relief. We will be afraid that the battles we will be difficult to fight in the future." Jun Wuhuan nodded and said, "It's good to be mentally prepared. After all, the Clans are better at cavalry and face-to-face tough battles. The more north the terrain is good for them. Although the previous battles were very successful, today we have seen that we are not at the advantage of facing head-on battles."

The big tent was a little quiet for a moment. Jun Wuhuan looked at everyone and said with a smile, "But you don't have to worry too much. Everyone always understands the passage of these years and these days. We are not unable to defeat the Clan. Isn't it?"

"The city lord is right!" Han Tianning said, "The people of the Clan are indeed extraordinary, but we are not vegetarians either!"

Jun Wuhuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, thank you for your hard work today, let's have a good rest first, and we'll talk about something else later."

Everyone responded in unison, and Jiang Jishi hesitated for a moment and said, "City Lord, we are all offensive along the way. Now when we arrive in Ningzhou, the people of the Clan will never retreat. They are just afraid they will be ready to counterattack." The Clans have always been better at offensives. They were stunned by the Clans during this period. But sooner or later they will come back to their senses and have to be careful.

Jun Wuhuan nodded and said, "No, so everyone will be able to keep their energy in the past two days. Once the rectification of the people of the Clan is completed, it is probably time for us to start a tough battle."

"Yes, the city lord!" everyone said in unison.

Everyone stood up and left, and Jun Wuhuan just looked at Nangong Yuyue squatting in the corner not far away.

Nangong Yuyue raised her head and looked at her calmly. Jun Wuhuan said, "Aling is heading to Liangzhou."

Nangong Yuyue's eyes lit up slightly, and she stood up.

Jun Wuhuan stared at her and said, "You can go to Liangzhou, but... don't cause trouble for A Ling."

Nangong Yuyue rolled her eyes and said, "I haven't caused any trouble!"

Jun Wuhuan sneered that you have not caused trouble for A Ling yet. In the past two months, Nangong Yuyue has caused him a lot of trouble. Not to mention anything else, just say that the walls of Cangyun City were almost demolished. If there weren't anyone from the Cangyun City now, he might have suspected that Nangong Yuyue was pretending to have amnesia and came to Cangyun Army undercover to demolish him at any time.

Nangong Yuyue didn't want to talk nonsense to him. She turned around happily and wanted to leave, "I'm leaving."

"etc!"

"What else do you want to do?" Nangong Yuyue rolled her eyes at him unhappily, obviously very dissatisfied with his delay in his schedule.

Jun Wuhuan said, "Protect A Ling well."

Nangong Yuyue rolled her eyes again, "I want you to tell me!" Then she lifted the curtain and rushed out, "Fu Leng, pack up the things and let's go!"

“…”

The sudden battle between Tianqi and Cangyun City did shock the entire Shang Kyoto. The powerful and powerful people in the Northern Jin Dynasty who had not yet come back to their senses in the internal strife were stunned when they heard the news. They could not believe that Tianqi people would have such courage and decision. You must know that the Tianqi literati had to think carefully about what decisions they made in their hearts, and then they had a few rounds of arguments in the court. Often, the various parties had different opinions and were in a quarrel. It would take at least two or three months to go there, not to mention that they would dispatch troops, food, and so on in the future, even if they drove again, it would take at least four or five months to officially send troops. But this time, when they received the news, the Imperial Army of the Age had already passed the Lingcang River.

After that, Cangyun City and Xiqin also attacked one after another, which made the Northern Jin people very embarrassed for a while.

So the people who originally planned to continue the power struggle last year finally calmed down and they must first settle the outside world! So the people who had been fighting in the internal struggle finally sat down again and discussed how to deal with Cangyun City and the Apocalypse.

At the end of March, a new recruitment order from the Northern Jin Dynasty was issued to the world!

After all, the people of the Clan have just entered the pass for less than twenty years, and the martial arts and bloodlines of the Clans did not have time to be completely corrupted by the beautiful rivers and mountains of the Central Plains. As soon as the conscription order was issued, countless young people of the Clan rushed to the military camp. They were born late and did not catch up with the military achievements of the Clan when they entered the pass. But now it is not bad? This time, the Clans lowered the standards for conscription, and the Clans were mixed with all races, including the Clans.

You can also join the cavalry of the Clan and become the most elite soldiers of the Clan. Once you open this way, there will be more people applying for the conscription. However, in just half a month, the Clan's military strength was greatly supplemented. Although these soldiers and horses cannot go to the battlefield immediately, although these people are not as good as those elites who have been on the battlefield for a long time, the Clan's people, as long as they have been trained for a short time, they can be countless times better than the Apocalypse Imperial Army, who have just joined the army!

Moreover, these people have never fought with Cangyun City and the current Shenyou Army. They have heard that the Apocalypse people are still from their parents' mouths, so they are all ambitious and are full of fighting spirit to go into battle to kill the enemy and make achievements.
