From eunuch to emperor

The army marched out and the order to withdraw to Yanmen Pass spread quickly throughout the barracks, and everyone packed up their things immediately.

Long Chen entered the Demon Dragon Camp, and saw three thousand warriors training to fight. Now they changed into Da Zhou's armor and weapons, and Long Chen gave them the best weapons.

The best equipment works best only in the hands of the best fighters.

Walking to the front of the tent, Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue just came out.

"Two old generals."

See you at Long Chen's salute.

Both of them are veterans who have fought with Long Yuan, and Long Chen respects them very much.

"Little General."

The two bowed their hands in return, signaling Long Chen to go in.

Walking into the tent, I saw Yu Wenkai was still drinking.

"The old general is good at drinking, and he won't get drunk after a thousand glasses."

After drinking for so many days, Yu Wenkai didn't mean to get drunk at all.

"It's obviously strong wine, why can't you get drunk?"

Yu Wenkai put down the wine jar in disappointment, shook his head and sighed depressedly.

Long Chen sat down and said with a smile: "How many people want to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but the old general thinks that he can drink too much."

Yu Wenkai leaned on the back table and said, "Drunk is a happy thing."

That's true, sometimes people need to get drunk, let themselves relax, and forget about the world for a while.

"We plan to retreat to Yanmen Pass, where we will fight Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl."

Long Chen waited carefully for Yu Wenkai's answer.

Long Chen estimated that Yu Wenkai would object, but Yu Wenkai said calmly: "Well, you know how to retreat, not bad."

"Our military strength is inferior, and our cultivation base is not as good. If the martial saints and ghost girls come, they will definitely surround us, and everyone will die at that time."

Young people are most afraid of arrogance and conceit. Long Chen became the commander of the human race at a young age. Yu Wenkai was afraid that he would be arrogant and reckless, and rashly start a war with Wu Sheng.

So when Long Chen said to retreat, instead of objecting, Yu Wenkai appreciated it very much.

Long Chen said: "This junior thinks so, so he chooses to retreat temporarily. There are 40 soldiers and horses available at Yanmen Pass, and there are enough weapons and arrows. It is better to fight there."

Yu Wenkai nodded, and said: "I also think that it is not good to start a war here, and there is even the danger of annihilation of the entire army, but I have never taken the initiative to retreat, do you know why?"

Long Chen thought for a while, and said: "Because the old general was worried that the ghost clan would invade Xixia, and even enter the Central Plains from Xixia, bypassing the Yanmen Pass."

Yanmen Pass is very strong, if Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl take the initiative to go to Yanmen Pass to fight, Long Chen will occupy an advantageous position.

However, martial saints and ghost girls can choose to bypass Yanmen Pass and invade from Xixia Yuncheng and other places.

The ghost clan is killing wantonly in the Central Plains, Long Chen must lead his troops to leave Yanmen Pass, find the ghost clan and start a war.

In this way, the initiative of the war is in the hands of Wu Sheng, Long Chen will be led by the nose and will be exhausted.

Yanmen Pass will become the Maginot Line of Defense during World War II. It seems extremely strong, but it is actually useless.

Yu Wenkai nodded and said, "Yes, as long as you can think of it."

"I also think it's not good to start a war here, but I didn't take the initiative to withdraw my troops, just because I was worried that they would go straight to the Central Plains."

"What are we fighting for? For our own hatred, to avenge our brothers, and most importantly, to protect the people behind us."

"On the battlefield, I am most afraid of being red-eyed. In the end, I only remember revenge and forget everything else."

"It's okay for ordinary soldiers to think this way. If the general fights for hatred, then it's over."

Stop fighting and fight, use war to stop war.

War should not be an end, but a means to peace.

If war is the purpose, it will be militaristic, and finally it will perish.

As a general, you must understand this truth.

Long Chen clasped his hands in salute, and said: "This junior has been educated."

As the only remaining general 400 years ago, Yu Wenkai was able to say these words, and Long Chen was moved.

The people he knew were all dead, Yu Wenkai could fight without any worries, cared about his grievances, and didn't care about anything, but he didn't, he said these words to Long Chen, which was enough to prove Yu Wenkai's feelings.

"Don't be polite to me, tell me what to do."

To retreat, it is necessary to prevent the ghost race from invading the Central Plains from elsewhere.

Long Chen said: "The junior has a strategy, but it needs the cooperation of the old general."

Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "No problem, I have joined the army now, you are the chief general, and I will follow your orders."

Long Chen immediately bowed and said: "Don't dare, how dare this junior."

Long Chen didn't dare to command Yu Wenkai to fight, he could only ask for advice.

"Okay, you arrange it."

Yu Wenkai is very free and easy.

Long Chen immediately went out to make arrangements, and the army immediately moved out and slowly retreated south.

North of the barracks.

A figure appeared on the hilltop in the distance, it was Hawkeye Weiying.

Coming out of the ancient tomb, the three of Wei Ying found a few barbarians, killed the barbarians, snatched the horses, and rushed to the vicinity of the Da Zhou camp.

Wei Ying climbed up and looked into the distance, squinting at Da Zhou's camp.

Wei Ying has excellent eyesight and can see things in the distance clearly, that's why he got the nickname Hawk Eye.

From a distance of a thousand meters, Wei Ying could clearly see the soldiers in the barracks.

Zhu Zhen and Li Man were beside them, and they also tried their best to look into the distance. Their eyesight was not as good as Wei Ying's, but they were not bad.

"General Wei, they seem to be retreating."

Zhu Zhen saw that the Da Zhou barracks were uprooted and the whole army was marching south, so he judged that the Da Zhou army was retreating.

Li Man said a little strangely: "It's strange, didn't they come here to fight us? Why did they retreat?"

Zhu Zhen said coldly: "The lord and the queen have awakened, a junior dare to fight us?"

Li Man didn't speak, he thought so too.

Looking at the retreating army in the distance, Wei Ying began to feel troubled.

Da Zhou's army retreated, and if they wanted to find out the situation, they had to follow, and it was best to sneak into the barracks.

However, if you follow the past all the way, you will go farther and farther. How will you report to Wu Sheng?

Moreover, Wu Sheng asked him to inquire about the situation, he definitely wanted to fight Long Chen.

Now that Long Chen has retreated, Wu Sheng will definitely not be happy when he goes back to report.

"General, shall we follow up?"

Zhu Zhen asked Wei Ying if he was following Da Zhou's army, Wei Ying said very decisively: "Of course we will follow up, we haven't figured out Long Chen's situation yet, how many generals they have."

Li Man also said: "If you haven't seen Yu Wenkai, you must see the Demon Dragon Camp."

Wei Ying ordered to follow slowly, wait until after dark, and then sneak into the barracks.

While the three were spying, Feng He was looking at the three of Wei Ying with a binoculars in a pit in the distance.

Wei Ying's location is too far away, even the eagle shooter can't see that far, so Wei Ying didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, Feng He saw it through the telescope.

After coming out of Storm Canyon, Feng He has been observing the surroundings, guarding against the spies of Wu Sheng.

After killing so many people in the ice field, Wu Sheng will definitely not give up, and the ghost girl will definitely take revenge, so Long Chen asked Feng He to keep a close eye on the north to prevent being spied on and attacked.

Sure enough, Feng He saw the three of Wei Ying.

"Only three?"

Seeing that there were not many Wei Ying, Feng He judged in his heart that these three people should be spies of the ghost clan.

"Keep an eye on these three people, and I will report."

Feng He ordered his subordinates to keep watching, and he immediately climbed out of the pit and reported the matter to Long Chen.
