Chapter 895 All thanks to Master's guidance!
Square City.
Since the Battle of last winter, when it fell to the Great Jing Dynasty, the Great Jing has been using Yuecheng across the river as a supply point to transport various supplies and troops to Sifang City. In accordance with the construction method given by Jia Daoshi, the destroyed city walls of Sifang City were rebuilt. Not only were the high walls rebuilt, but these walls were even higher and stronger than the original Sifang City!
Not only Sifang City, but also the two adjacent garrison towns were transformed into an impregnable fortress!
The general stationed here is none other than Shen Li's senior sister, Lan Biyin!
Since the chaos in the Great Jing Dynasty, the Longwu Dynasty has sent troops several times to try to retake Sifang City, but they were all repelled by Lan Biyin. After several attempts, the Longwu Dynasty stopped making any moves.
However, recently, the Longwu Dynasty has once again shown signs of restlessness.
The people of the Longwu Dynasty lived in the north and were much more fierce than the people of the Dajing Dynasty. In many places, the people of the Longwu Dynasty were called the Longwu barbarians.
After winter set in, the Longwu Dynasty showed some signs of trouble. It was clear that they had lost Sifang City in winter and wanted to take it back in winter!
A few days ago, the Longwu Dynasty assembled several armies, totaling more than 200,000 men, and stationed them in Hongcheng, 30 miles away from Sifang City.
The commotion was quite significant, and as an experienced garrison commander, Lan Biyin's scouts quickly discovered the anomaly.
"Good! These bastards of the Longwu Dynasty are indeed still up to their old tricks! General, I am willing to lead the troops there and restore the prestige of our Great Jing army!"
Upon receiving the confirmed news, a general immediately volunteered to fight in front of Lan Biyin!
Not long ago, the Northwest Front of the Great Jing was in full swing. In addition to the Northwest, there was also internal fighting. One battle after another was fought, and military achievements were emerging in droves. However, their usually bustling North was very quiet!
This made these generals extremely uneasy!
Since everyone has become a soldier, of course they want to make military achievements!
"This humble general is also willing to go, and will surely slaughter every last one of those villains from Longwu!"
As soon as the first general volunteered for battle, a second general followed suit!
Despite the anger of his own generals, Lan Biyin remained remarkably calm.
As the only senior sister of the Prince of Zhenbei, Lan Biyin has a calm personality and rich battlefield experience.
"Some time ago, the Longwu Dynasty was also prone to infighting, with the various princes fighting each other. Now they have suddenly united and headed south. There may be some hidden reason behind this."
Lan Biyin poured herself a cup of tea and sipped it slowly. In her opinion, the emperor of the Longwu Dynasty was trying to divert attention from the internal conflicts within the court.
However, the pro-peace faction within the Longwu court was far more powerful than the pro-war faction. Even their Holy Maiden, Murong Nishang, was a pro-peace figure. Her sudden trip south suggests there might be something going on behind the scenes.
His subordinate frowned: "General Lan, are you implying that the Longwu Dynasty's sudden mobilization of a large army to the south is a conspiracy?"
The general who was entrusted with such an important task by Shen Li and Lan Biyin was certainly not a fool. They understood immediately from Lan Biyin's words.
"Exactly."
Lan Biyin nodded.
"Who could it be? Emperor Zhan Yunqian of the Longwu Dynasty is very shrewd, and although his brothers seem to listen to him on the surface, they are secretly up to something. There is also Huo Zhitian, the top general of the Longwu Dynasty, who commands the Qianyan Army. In the last battle, they suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of the prince and will not be able to recover their strength in a short time."
"In my opinion, it must be that Emperor Longwu thought our strength had been weakened after the great war and wanted to test our strength!"
The generals discussed the matter animatedly, but couldn't come to any conclusions for the time being.
Lan Biyin didn't speak, but looked up, her gaze falling on the horizon not far away.
After a moment of silence, she finally spoke: "Immediately dispatch the Azure Phoenix messenger. There are unusual movements in the Longwu Dynasty in the north, and it is highly likely that an external force has intervened. I urge the court to take action as soon as possible!"
"Order!"
The messenger immediately ran outside.
The generals standing nearby were also dumbfounded.
They had never seen Lan Biyin with such a solemn expression before.
Lan Biyin did not report the previous provocations by the Longwu Emperor to the court.
The enemy has sent a large army this time, which is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions. Why report to the court so quickly?
It seems that this time, the Longwu Dynasty is indeed not simple.
"I guess it's those forces that failed in their attempts to cause trouble in the Great Jing Dynasty, and now they've gone to the Longwu Dynasty." Lan Biyin had this thought in her mind, but she didn't say it out loud.
Because these things are all her conjectures, without any real evidence.
"However, you're dreaming if you think you can use the power of the Longwu Dynasty to break through my defenses!"
Lan Biyin sneered inwardly. Although she was a woman, she was ruthless when it came to fighting!
If anyone from the Longwu Dynasty dares to come, she will show them what the wall of a dynasty truly is!
at the same time.
A hilltop not far from Sifang City.
Two figures stood tall and imposing, their robes fluttering in the mountain wind.
Their gazes fell upon the Four Directions City.
"Chaoge, what do you think our General Lan will do?"
The two figures were an old man and a young man.
It was the former Right Chancellor who came to Longwu from the capital of the Great Jing Kingdom, along with his highly regarded disciple, Meng Chaoge.
At the same time, Meng Chaoge is also the eldest disciple of Fengtao Twelve Towers and Sichen Tower.
The Prime Minister's question was clearly a test for Meng Chaoge.
This Meng Chaoge looks like a frail scholar who could be blown over by a gust of wind, but in reality, his eyes are very sharp and contain a divine light. Moreover, he exudes an aura that can control everything from the inside out!
At this moment, facing his master's question, he smiled faintly: "Lan Biyin, the garrison commander of Sifang City, has followed Prince Shen Li of Zhenbei for many years. No! Lan Biyin is Shen Li's senior sister. To outsiders, it looks like Lan Biyin is following Shen Li, but in reality, it is Shen Li who is following Lan Biyin! This Senior Sister Lan is no simple woman. She has rich battlefield experience and is resourceful. However, this woman also has her flaws!"
"That means she didn't know that the Longwu Dynasty's southward advance was being interfered with by external forces. Moreover, given her personality, even if she did know, she wouldn't care; that's the confidence she's cultivated through years of battlefield experience!"
"Furthermore, she believes her internal structure is impeccable, but that's just her opinion!"
"Good! Good! Chaoge, you're very good! I believe you'll soon be able to take over the heavy responsibility of Sichen Tower."
The Right Chancellor stroked his beard and nodded, his face full of smiles, clearly very satisfied with the disciple he had chosen.
"It's all thanks to my master's guidance!"
Meng Chaoge turned around, bowed and cupped her hands to the Right Prime Minister, seemingly humble, but her eyes were full of arrogance.
