The Most Powerful Emperor System in History

"The Valley of Retreat and the Castle!"

Zhao Mao closed his eyes, his face full of unwillingness.

His words meant that the entire battle was lost, and the army under his command was only half a million people around him.

Moreover, he must attack Xiyi City in a very short period of time and capture Xiyi City. Only in this way can he ensure that the 500,000 army will not be trapped in Guhe City.

"But……"

"General, if we withdraw our troops to Guhe City now, what will happen to the army on Shangguan Mountain?" A general looked worried.

"What else can I do? Give up!"

The corner of Zhao Mao's mouth was bitter, and he said, "The idiot Tan Wenbo was killed with an army of nearly one million, and all the food and grass in Mingxi City will also fall into Lu Feng's hands."

"Also, after hearing the news of the collapse of Tan Wenbo's army, Lu Feng will definitely gather all his troops to attack Shangguan Mountain as soon as possible. When we return to help, Shangguan Mountain will be over long ago."

"Not to mention, there are still cavalry under Lu Feng's hands. Even if we have time, we will face a cavalry raid when we run over, and it will still be useless at that time."

"There is only one road in front of us now. Give up the army on Shangguan Mountain, retreat to Guhe City, and at the same time send out the army to attack Xiyi City. We must take back Xiyi City, otherwise we will all be finished."

It made Zhao Mao very, very heartache to give up more than 700,000 troops on Shangguan Mountain.

But even if it hurts, there is nothing to do.

If he did not give up and chose to return to help, facing the cavalry under Lu Feng's hands, no matter how powerful his army was, it would be difficult to stop the cavalry on the plain.

Not to mention that there are still 20,000 iron cavalry led by the fierce general Lu Bu in Linghong City. When the time comes, the attack will be completely over, and there will be no army left.

"But... General, can't we just do nothing?"

"Yes, General, if we withdraw our troops like this, after returning to the kingdom, neither His Majesty the Emperor nor the sect will let us go."

These generals knew that the losses in this battle were huge, and someone had to take responsibility.

Zhao Mao's identity is not simple, and he will have nothing to do when he returns to the kingdom, but their generals whose identities are not very important must be responsible, and it is the best result to be able to save their lives at that time.

"General, send troops to attack Linghong City. As long as we take Linghong City and kill Lu Bu, we are not completely defeated."

"General, order!"

These generals are begging one by one.

However, Zhao Mao shook his head firmly and said: "Linghong City has Lu Bu, he is very powerful, and he has more than 20,000 soldiers under his command. In addition, Linghong City is a small city, and it does not need to be too scattered for defense, more than 20,000 soldiers. Soldiers can also hold back for a while."

"If Ran Min leads the cavalry to attack us at this time under Lu Feng's instruction, we will not be able to leave by then. Now we cannot waste time and must retreat immediately."

The generals under his command heard it, and smiled bitterly in their hearts, but the general's order did not dare to ignore it.

After these generals left, Zhao Mao pondered slightly, took a deep breath, and turned to leave behind the military tent.

Soon, he arrived at a relatively hidden place in the military camp. There was a military tent here. Unlike other military tents, this military tent was one size smaller.

"General Zhao, please come in." Just as Zhao Mao came here, a voice came from inside.

Zhao Mao walked into the military tent, and there were four people sitting inside.

They are all dressed in black and are the shadow guards of the Spirit Sword Sect.

"Four lords, my plan has failed, Tan Wenbo's army has been completely lost, and the calculation of besieging Lu Bu will also fail. I hope that the four lords will take the lead and cooperate with the 100,000 army outside Xiyi City to retake Xiyi City." Zhao Mao bowed slightly to the four of them.

These four people are not only members of the shadow guards, but each of them is very strong.

They all have the strength of the holy king's second-level heaven and close to the third level. They are arranged here by Zhao Mao. After his plan is successful, they will immediately attack Linghong City and let them besiege Lu Bu.

But now, all those plans are over.

A few shadow guards didn't ask more, nodded, and disappeared. They went to Xiyi City according to Zhao Mao's instructions and recaptured Xiyi City.

"I hope there are no saint king masters under Lu Feng's hands in Xiyi City!"

Zhao Mao sighed lightly after the saint king masters of the shadow guards left.

He had experienced too much in this war, and every time Lu Feng's actions were unexpected, he had no ability to react at all.

Now, he is very worried that there is a master of the Holy King under Lu Feng in Xiyi City. After all, it is rumored that there is another Wei Qing in the distance to Beiguan who did not show up.

Now that both Ran Min and Huo Qubing have arrived at Hukou Pass, and there is a teleportation array, it is hard to say whether Wei Qing has also arrived here.

It's just that he has no choice.

On that day, Zhao Mao led the army to retreat from Linghong City immediately and headed for Guhe City.

"General, the enemy has really withdrawn!"

On the top of Linghong City, Lu Bu's lieutenant said to Lu Bu with excitement when he saw Zhao Mao's army retreat.

There was also a smile on Lu Bu's face, and he said, "In this way, Your Majesty's side should be a great victory. Next, this war that has lasted for several months is coming to an end!"

"General, if we lead the cavalry to rush over now, we will definitely gain a lot." The lieutenant's eyes were eager to try.

"No!" Lu Bu shook his head and said, "There are 500,000 enemy troops, and there will definitely be experts from the Holy King. We have too few soldiers now, so there is no need to take risks."

If it was the previous Lu Bu, he might have been mad at the soldiers, but now Lu Bu has begun to change. As a leader, he will think about the lives of his soldiers, and he cannot let the soldiers' lives go to waste for such a little military exploits. loss here.

"Yes!"

The lieutenant responded, but did not say more.

...

At the foot of Shangguan Mountain, Lu Feng looked at Tan Wenbo's head, which was carried by Duan Shui, and said with a smile, "Duan Shui, you have made a great contribution!"

He got the battle report from Hukou Pass. When he knew that Tan Wenbo had escaped, he was still a little worried.

Because Tan Wenbo is scattered in Chi County, there are still about 700,000 troops. If Tan Wenbo does not die, gather these troops, and then join Zhao Mao's 500,000 troops under Linghong City, and there are 1.2 million troops, then it will also be is a very huge threat.

However, fortunately, Duan Shui successfully refined the silver spirit tree, reached the realm of the holy king, and when he came back, he met Tan Wenbo who had escaped to Mingxi City, and successfully killed him.

This also makes Lu Feng no longer have to worry about Tan Wenbo gathering in Chi County, and the hundreds of thousands of troops in other cities have one less worry.

Duan Shui didn't say anything, just bowed slightly and stood inside the Six Swordsmen. The most bullish emperor system in history
