Chapter 394 Tianying’s victory丨Reactions from all parties

Emperor Xueye looked much better at this time. It was obvious that Dugu Bo had used his last resort method of fighting fire with fire again.

At this time, in addition to the original Xue Xing, Xue Beng, Qian Renxue and others, the Imperial Marshal Ge Long, the Tiandou military leaders and personnel from the two major sects all appeared here.

He looked at Marshal Ge Long and the two sect administrators, namely Ning Fengzhi and Yu Luomian, "I guess you already know the information coming from Zhennanguan Pass."

"It has been nearly three years since the last time the Star Luo Empire publicly stated that Wuhun Palace would no longer interfere with any of their actions. This time they are attacking Nanguan with troops. I'm afraid their intentions are not trivial." The contemporary Marquis of Xuanwu said solemnly. .

He is the oldest one among all the military princes present. His real name is Shi Xian. In terms of age and seniority, even Ge Long would respectfully call him "senior".

However, although Shi Xian has reached an old age, he still looks very energetic.

"We need to send reinforcements as soon as possible, but we don't have enough information about the enemy this time. We don't know which old guy from the Star Luo Empire will lead the troops." Ge Long frowned and said, "The most fear is that those three old guys will lead the troops in person. .”

Those three old guys he was talking about, everyone here knows who they are.

Those are the three famous Star Luo generals, Ba Xia, Mad Lion, and Death Blade.

Each of these three old guys is a world-famous general who is not inferior to Ge Long. If they lead the troops to attack Zhennanguan, I am afraid that Zhennanguan will fall in less than half a month.

"Then quickly send troops to support Zhennanguan!" Emperor Xueye said quickly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ge Long responded and was about to discuss how to send troops and who to send for reinforcements.

But at this moment, the minister outside the door hurriedly walked in, "Your Majesty, there is new information from the front line."

The hearts of Emperor Xueye and all the important officials of Heavenly Dou present sank, thinking that this time was some bad information.

But... but this was just two hours away from the news that the Star Luo Empire army appeared on the front line. How could the news of the front line's fall be sent back so quickly?

Just when everyone was puzzled.

But the minister said, "It's a letter from Tianying Hou Lu Yuan. Tianying Hou's letter said that he has sent troops to support Zhennan Pass. A total of more than 50,000 Tianying Army and 5,000 Royal Knights have been mobilized. The military situation is urgent. I hope you can Your Majesty forgives me, but if nothing unexpected happens, by the time your Majesty receives this letter, reinforcements from the Tianying Army will probably have arrived at Zhennang Pass."

Lu Yuan wrote this letter before sending troops for reinforcements. After all, without the emperor's permission, launching an army would easily arouse Emperor Xueye's fear.

Of course, even if Emperor Xueye knew this, he should not dare to do anything to Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan wanted to lower the alertness in the hearts of Emperor Xueye and others, so that it would be convenient for subsequent revolts.

Just like Wang Mang and Zhao Da, they pretended to be loyal ministers, so there was not so much resistance behind them.

Emperor Xue Ye and everyone present were stunned for a moment, and then Emperor Xue Ye's old face turned red.

But this time, I was not frightened, but felt great joy.

He shouted loudly, his face full of joy, "Okay! Tianyinghou cares about his family and country. How can I blame him for rashly raising an army?"

Ning Fengzhi and the accompanying Sword Douluo frowned slightly, but when they remembered that Lu Yuan was protected by La Ast, they relaxed again.

"But Tianyinghou's newly trained Tianying Army only has 50,000 people. I am afraid it is no match for the Star Luo Empire, which has at least 200,000 troops." Fengwuhou Andrew said in a deep voice.

"But there should be no problem in holding off the Star Luo Empire army's offensive for a period of time." Ge Long shook his head and said.

"Yes, then we must continue to discuss sending troops to reinforce Zhennanguan." Emperor Xueye's heart suddenly sank again.

Yes, will the Tianying Army, which has only been training for two years, be a match for a tiger and wolf army like the Star Luo Empire's army?

Even if there are still 5,000 Royal Knights, they can only delay the enemy's offensive at most. To truly relieve the siege, the Imperial Capital must send reinforcements.

It would take at least six days for the frontline intelligence to reach Tiandou City. Now no one would have thought that Lu Yuan led this newly trained army to defeat the 300,000 Star Luo Empire army with fewer enemies and more enemies.

Moreover, it was the 300,000 Star Luo Empire army led by Ba Xia General Gao Zhong.

…

At this time, Wuhun Palace.

"What?" Bibi Dong opened her red lips, a little surprised, "You said that Lu Yuan led his Sky Shadow Army of only 50,000 people to directly defeat the Star Luo Empire's powerful army of 300,000 people? !”

The deacon of Wuhun Hall who was kneeling below was also in disbelief, "Yes, Your Majesty, Lu Yuan even killed General Gao Zhong..."

"How is this possible..." Bibi Dong, Ju Douluo, and Ghost Douluo were all in disbelief.

Gao Zhong has been famous for a long time, and his cultivation and strength are not weak. In addition, Bibi Dong and others know that this old turtle is the most stable, and he never plays tricks like fighting generals, single-handedly fighting, or risking his troops.

Even if he has some ingenious ideas, it is only a support. He prefers to use force to overwhelm others.

But Gao Zhong was not only defeated this time, but also died at the hands of Lu Yuan, which was a bit bizarre and difficult to understand.

"Is it Rayaste?" Bibi Dong frowned.

"Your Majesty, it's very possible." Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo nodded immediately, feeling that it made sense.

"But how did that 300,000-strong army be defeated by Lu Yuan's shadow army?" Bibi Dong was puzzled.

The deacon of Wuhun Palace immediately took a look at what he saw before and after the war. Soon, Bibi Dong saw Lu Yuan's plan.

"Good, what a good move to show the enemy is weak, what a good move to close the door and hit the dog, what a good move to destroy morale." She couldn't help but admire, "This Lu Yuan is really scary. Not only is his cultivation and talent great, And his mind is no weaker than Ning Fengzhi's."

"This battle is enough to make him famous throughout the continent... No, in fact, he has already become famous on the continent, but now his reputation is even stronger." Bibi Dong said in a deep voice, "To be able to defeat the Star Luo Empire army, it is better to win with less. Many, the weak defeated the strong, and even took high-ranking heads..."

"He has become a legend!" she said with bright eyes.

…

Star Luo Empire.

"General Gao Zhong...died in battle?!" Emperor Xingluo fell back in disbelief and sat on the throne.

"My son is incompetent..." Dai Mubai gritted his teeth and said.

Emperor Xingluo waved his hand and said feebly, "No, it's not your fault."

Originally, he sent Dai Mubai to fight under Gao Zhong, who learned from Gao Zhong. The commander-in-chief of the entire army was not Dai Mubai, so there was nothing to blame.

Besides, even Gao Zhong, the three famous generals of the Star Luo Empire, had been defeated. What could Dai Mubai do?

There were many reasons for the failure of the war. One was the lack of troops, but this time the Star Luo Empire sent an army of 300,000.

The opponent's Zhennanguan was only a hundred thousand strong even with the addition of that day's shadow army. Three times the opponent's strength was lost, so that was not the problem.

The second reason for the failure was that the time and place were not favorable. Although Zhennanguan was a dangerous pass, it was not that difficult to defeat. In addition, we did not encounter any extreme weather this time, which made it even more nonsense.

What is left is that the general is incompetent. After all, the incompetence of one general will affect the three armies, but this time it is the domineering general Gao Zhong who leads the army.

If even Baxia General Gao Zhong is considered incompetent in the Star Luo Empire, then there will be no capable general except the Star Luo Emperor.

So all I can say is...

It's not that we are incompetent, it's that the enemy is too powerful. The youngest marquis in the Tiandou Empire...

"Tianyinghou...Lu Yuan..." Emperor Xingluo muttered this name and looked at Dai Mubai in front of him, feeling suddenly envious.

In fact, Dai Mubai's talent is not bad. Even though his previous performance in the trilateral meeting was not as good as "Xue Qinghe", "Xue Qinghe" is already in his thirties.

Dai Mubai is only about twenty years old now, and the only difference is time and experience.

But things like talent and ability are the most afraid of comparison. Dai Mubai is older than Lu Yuan, but he is far inferior to Lu Yuan in terms of talent, strength and ability.

"It would be great if Lu Yuan was my child." Emperor Xingluo couldn't help but fantasize in his heart.

It's fantasy time.

"Father, what should we do now?" At this moment, Dai Mubai's voice brought him back to reality.

He suddenly regained consciousness, then thought for a moment and said, "Let's find a way to redeem the remains of our soldiers and General Gao Zhong, but..."

A sly look flashed in Emperor Xingluo's eyes, "Send someone to talk to the Shadow Lord that day first."

He actually intended to set a trap for Lu Yuan. If Lu Yuan directly negotiated terms with them, he would then return the captives and Gao Zhong's head.

This was a domineering act of ignoring Emperor Xueye and acting on his own initiative.

That would inevitably create a gap between Lu Yuan and Emperor Xue Ye. Although it was impossible for Lu Yuan and Emperor Xue Ye to completely break up, it would be good if it could create a little conflict.

After all, the principle of "a long dike thousands of miles long is destroyed by an ant nest" will never go out of style.

But unfortunately, his plan failed. Lu Yuan directly told the Star Luo Empire's envoy that General Gao Zhong's head had been sent to Tiandou City with the envoy.

Moreover, if you want to negotiate terms, you must go to Tiandou City to negotiate. He is just a minister and cannot overstep his authority.

The Star Luo Empire envoy had no choice but to go back and tell the story. The Star Luo Emperor had no choice but to send an envoy group to Tiandou City.

…

A few days later, just as Emperor Xueye and the important ministers of the Tiandou Empire were discussing the matter of sending troops for reinforcements, the news of the victory at Zhennanguan Pass had been sent to Tiandou City.

"Your Majesty! Good news came from the front line!" The minister rushed into the Grand Meeting Hall with joy on his face.

Emperor Xue Ye was a little unhappy at first, but when he heard the word "good news", he was stunned for a moment, "What did you say? Good news?"

Marshal Ge Long and others were also stunned. They were planning to send troops for reinforcements, but the news of success had already come from the front?

It's like you were originally playing ranked, and when you go in and see that all the online players on the other side are juniors with a winning rate of 80 or 90%, you are all locals here, and if you want to quickly get a set of BUFFs, go to the second generation. When the level helper is online...

As a result, the system information about his teammate's single-killing of the opponent's younger generation has been transmitted online. Who should be stunned for a moment?

"Yes! Your Majesty!" the minister said with ecstasy, "Good news came from Zhennan Pass. Tianyinghou led his army to defeat the Star Luo Empire army, killing more than 184,000 enemy people and capturing seven enemy soldiers. There are more than 4,000 people, and 30,000 enemy troops are left and have fled.”

When Emperor Xueye heard this, he couldn't help but stand up in excitement and praise, but the minister continued with a smile on his face and said -

"Not only that, Tianyinghou also killed the Star Luo Empire's commander-in-chief this time - General Baxia Gao Zhong, and his head was also sent."

After speaking, he opened the wooden treasure box he had been holding in his hand.

Ge Long couldn't help but look into the treasure box and found a head that was well preserved by lime inside. Looking at that familiar face, wasn't it his old rival from the past - General Baxia Gao Zhong?

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The head of his original opponent was already in front of him, and he was no longer alive.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Emperor Xueye couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up ecstatically and patted the handle of the throne. "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

Three words of "good" can fully reflect the ecstasy in his heart.

But Ning Fengzhi is not here at this time, otherwise his expression should not be much worse than that of Emperor Xue Ye at this time.

"What a formidable young man... The opponent is that old guy Gao Zhong who went to battle this time, and he brought an army of 300,000 people. I thought it was only an army of 200,000 people, but I didn't expect it to be an army of 300,000 people." Marquis Xuanwu couldn't help but say.

But except for the 30,000 troops that retreated back to the Star Luo Empire, all of the 300,000 troops fell into the hands of Lu Yuan.

Such a record of winning more with less is indeed brilliant enough.

Lu Yuan, as he is called Tianyinghou, became famous in one battle this time! Because he defeated Gao Zhong, no matter what, his reputation is definitely not lower than that of the former domineering general Gao Zhong.

In addition, he is still young enough and has higher potential than anyone else. By then, being titled Douluo will not be a problem.

At this moment, Marquis Xuanwu suddenly remembered that his two grandsons seemed to have a good relationship with Lu Yuan.

This is really a happy event. As long as you have a good relationship with Lu Yuan, it is enough.

His Xuanwu Shi family does not need to be very prominent, as long as the title remains unchanged, since the title of their family is inherited from generation to generation and cannot be replaced hereditary.

I would like to mention here that not all the titles in the two empires are inherited from generation to generation and are hereditary. That is to say, some titles may only last one generation and cannot be passed down.

This is mostly the case for low-level titles such as viscount and baron.

There is also a situation where the title can be inherited hereditary, but the title will be reduced by one level for each generation. For example, the title of marquis or earl is a marquis in one's own generation, but when the son reaches the age, he becomes an earl or viscount.

Until it reaches a certain generation, the descendants have no merit and become commoners.

But military princes such as Liehuo Hou, Xuanwu Hou, and Fengwu Hou are basically hereditary and their ranks will not be reduced.

Everyone here looked happy, but only two people were not happy.

One was Prince Xuexing. He frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something because of Lu Yuan's victory.

And the other one is...

Qian Renxue.

Without anyone noticing, a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.
