Chapter 218
Jin Chengye's subordinates proposed to directly target Zhenbei City as the attack target, which was to destroy the core of the North Territory.
Long Tian was alone, and there was no connection between the so-called Long family and Long Tian. Long Tian had no weakness.
But Zhenbei City, as the core of power, would inevitably be affected a lot once it was destroyed by Jin Chengye, and even more enemies would appear. Not only the external princes, but even those North Territory families that were dealt with by Long Tian would probably not miss this opportunity.
In traditional wars, the core is so important, but what they don't know is that Long Tian is different from them.
First, Long Tian has no close relatives in Zhenbei City, only a few women.
Second, Long Tian's core team members were summoned and absolutely loyal, and there was no possibility of any accidents.
Third, with the ability of Night Prison and Shadow, there is no problem in protecting the core figures of the North Territory.
In this case, Zhenbei City is actually just like other ordinary cities, with no big difference.
However, as a symbol of the North Territory, Long Tian will definitely not give up Zhenbei City.
"Your Majesty, the King of Jingbian has been blocked by Ran Min now, but the difference in military strength between the two sides is huge. I am worried that the Jeju Army will split up and act."
Yue Fei needs to deal with the battles in Qingzhou and Xingzhou, and he can't intervene in the affairs of the northern border.
Originally, Chen Qingzhi's White Robe Army was also here with Yue Fei. Yue Fei wanted to send them back, but was rejected by Long Tian.
The Guanning Iron Cavalry was mobilized back from Baijiang City because Long Tian didn't want to delay the progress of the Xingzhou battle.
And Long Tian has returned. It's almost one month away. Long Tian believes that the system will give auxiliary rewards. After all, the speed of more than 20 people is much faster than that of the army.
"The battle here is left to you. Stabilize the entire Qingzhou as soon as possible and take Xingzhou. You don't have to worry about the King of Jingbian. This king will handle it personally."
"If Xingzhou has spare strength, you can divide a part of the troops to attack Leizhou and help Xue Rengui take Leizhou as soon as possible."
The main reason for the slow progress of Xue Rengui is the lack of troops.
The prince has been operating in Leizhou for many years and has a lot of troops. It would take too much time for Xue Rengui to take Leizhou independently with his troops.
Yue Fei understood his mission and said no more. There are many talents in the northern border, and the lack of him will not affect the overall situation.
After a brief explanation, Long Tian set out again and headed straight for Zhenbei City.
At this time, King Jingbian really changed his strategy and no longer fought for a city or a place. Instead, he left 100,000 troops to involve Ran Min, and the remaining 400,000 troops joined together and headed towards Zhenbei City.
At this moment, the Guanning Iron Cavalry had also arrived and was deployed on the way forward for the Jeju Army.
The Guanning Iron Cavalry did not launch a surprise attack, which was Long Tian's order.
After entering the northern border, the Jeju Army did not kill wantonly and maintained sufficient restraint. For the sake of Jin Fenghuang, Long Tian did not have the idea of killing them all for the time being.
If Jin Chengye could be persuaded to surrender, it would be a better choice for Long Tian. After all, it would be easier to take Jeju, which is still very important to Long Tian.
Therefore, the Guanning Iron Cavalry did not take the initiative to attack the Jeju Army without attacking the city and destroying the northern border.
It just limited the marching speed of the Jeju Army.
Jin Chengye also saw this situation. The Zhenbei Army did not have the idea of fighting a big battle, but they did not dare to start a war rashly.
Jin Chengye also knew that Long Tian was on his way back. Jin Chengye did not know how to face this son-in-law who he had not seen for many years.
The imperial plan and hegemony required a lot of sacrifices, but that was when they had an absolute advantage or could do something. Now Jin Chengye has fallen into a disadvantage.
Time passed quickly. With the tacit understanding of both sides, the Jeju Army arrived at the foot of Zhenbei City. There were Guanning Iron Cavalry watching closely next to them. Jin Chengye was not in a hurry to attack the city for the time being.
Jin Chengye was not sure whether Zhenbei City, the core of the northern border, still had enough defensive power.
Especially at this moment, the Jeju Army was far away from Jeju and had missed a good opportunity, which could not be ignored.
On this day, Long Tian rushed back to Zhenbei City.
"Welcome the prince back."
At this time, Liu Bowen, Xun Yu, Li Mu, Wang Jian, Zhou Zhiruo, Lin Chaoying and other summoned characters in Zhenbei City came out to greet them.
"Everyone, please stand up."
"After several months of absence, the stability of the northern border is thanks to everyone. Later, the king will reward everyone according to their merits and assign specific positions and tasks to everyone."
The stability of the northern border cannot be separated from the help of these great talents. With them, Long Tian is not worried about the stability and development of the northern border.
The group quickly returned to the Zhenbei Palace.
"Welcome the prince back to the palace."
Qing'er and Long Zongguan led a group of servants from the Northern Palace and waited at the door.
"Qing'er, thank you for your hard work."
Since there are endless masters around him, this little girl has been left in the palace by Long Tian to assist Long Zongguan,After all, there are many female relatives in the palace, Hao Muyu, Xiao Qingya are here, and Qian Mingxue often comes here. It is more convenient to have Qing'er in charge of everything.
Looking at the returning prince, Qing'er was very excited. She has been in the palace since she was a child, and she has seen all the changes in Long Tian.
Today's North Territory is getting stronger and stronger, all because of Long Tian.
Qing'er thought of the cynical Long Tian at the beginning, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion in her heart. The current prince is not only extremely powerful, but also has countless loyal followers, and has become a leader respected by everyone.
Qing'er came forward and saluted Long Tian with a smile: "Prince, you are back. You must have worked hard along the way?"
Long Tian smiled and nodded, indicating that she didn't need to be polite. Long Tian looked around and saw the busy and orderly scene in the palace, and felt very relieved.
No matter how long he has been away, this is his home.
At this time, Steward Long also stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, is this trip going well?"
Long Tian nodded slightly, indicating that everything went well. He expressed satisfaction with Steward Long's work and asked him to continue to maintain order and peace in the palace.
There is a different kind of affection between the two, and Long Tian does not need to elaborate.
After greeting everyone, Long Tian walked into the hall of the palace. The hall is elegantly decorated, showing the style of the Northern Palace everywhere. He sat in the main seat, pondered for a moment, and said to Steward Long: "During my absence, what happened in the palace?"
Long Tian also asked casually. With the existence of the old machine and the shadow, Long Tian always grasped every change in the North Territory, but there were also some small things that the shadow would not report.
Standard Long hurriedly reported recent affairs, including daily management in the palace, guest reception, and news from all over the North Territory. Long Tian listened carefully to every detail, and asked questions or gave suggestions from time to time.
Finally, Long Tian affirmed the work of Long Zongguan and encouraged him to keep working hard. He believed that with everyone's joint efforts, the Northern Palace would get better and better, and the Northern Territory would become more prosperous.
These small matters were Long Tian's family affairs, and also Long Tian's affirmation of the work of everyone in the Northern Palace.
Next, Long Tian sent Long Zongguan and others away and began to handle government affairs.
