Soon, Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong led the army to Jialing Pass. After seeing Lu Yuan's token, Jialing Pass opened the city gate and allowed Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and the army to enter Jialing Pass.

He directly asked the Tiandou Royal Knights and the Tianying Army to join the Tiandou Royal Knights and the Tianying Army in Jialing Pass, and then he directly entered the pass city.

Not long after, a messenger came to him and Ning Rongrong, bowed his hands and said, "For your humble position, please see Duke Tianying and Master Ning Shao."

"No courtesy." Lu Yuan waved his hand lightly.

"As per the Marshal's order, I also hope that Duke Tianying will go to the Chinese army camp to discuss matters." The messenger continued.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

"Please come this way." The messenger immediately extended his hand respectfully, and then led the way ahead.

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong followed the messenger to the camp inside Jialing Pass.

The Chinese army's tent is not luxurious. The tent made of cooked cowhide looks thick and solid. It is surrounded by a steel forest lined with swords and guns and guarded by the imperial guards.

Then... Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong saw several familiar figures.

In addition to the familiar generals of the Tiandou Empire, Ge Long, Andrew, Xuanwu Hou, Jie Fenghou and others, there are also many small and medium-sized generals in the army.

Including the Shi family brothers and Yan Zhuyin who also served in their respective families' armies were here, but they were all standing at the rear.

The Shi brothers and Yan Zhuyin both looked at them

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong couldn't reminisce with them right now, so they could only smile at them and then take their seats.

Sitting on a long table in the middle of the camp were Ge Long, Andrew, Marquis Xuanwu, Marquis Jiefeng, Marquis Senluo, Marquis Liehuo and others. In addition, there were Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong who had met before. Kunsim, the new king of the Balak Kingdom, was accompanied by a general.

He should be the marshal of the Barak Kingdom Army, but here he is at most a general.

In Quinsim, there were six strangers who looked at the position of the marshal of the Barak Kingdom's army in a similar position.

He must be the king and marshal of the third of the four kingdoms, just like Quinsim and the marshal of the Barak Kingdom.

As for the Dukes of the Principalities under the Tiandou Empire, like the Duke of Hel, they all stood at the rear like the Duke of Hel.

Obviously, there is a strict hierarchy within the Tiandou Empire's United Army, and everyone has their own place.

"Tianying Gong! Master Ning Shao!" The moment Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong came in, the leader, Marshal Ge Long, quickly stood up with a smile on his face, "Long time no see."

"Marshal Ge, it's been a long time since we last saw each other." Lu Yuan also responded with a polite smile.

Ning Rongrong also smiled and nodded as a greeting.

"Hurry up and take a seat." Ge Long immediately made a gesture of invitation, and there were two empty seats under his right hand. It seemed that they were prepared for Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong were not polite and sat directly on the upper seats.

After they took their seats, Gelong said to the kings and marshals of the three kingdoms except the Balak Kingdom, "It may be the first time you meet and you don't know each other very well, so I will introduce them to you."

Among those present, Kunsim from Balak Kingdom has met Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong. As for Marquis Fengwu, Marquis Xuanwu and others, needless to say, they are already very familiar with them.

"This is Prince Shaobao and Grand Duke Tianying Lu Yuan, who is famous in the mainland. He defeated and beheaded Gao Zhong not long ago, and held out for a month in front of millions of Star Luo Empire troops to delay the plan." He introduced. Lu Yuan's identity turned to Ning Rongrong again.

"And this is the young sect master Miss Ning Rongrong, the daughter of the current crown prince and master of the Qibao Glazed Sect."

The kings and marshals of the three kingdoms who were unknown to Lu Yuan were shocked by the exposure of these names and identities.

In particular, Lu Yuan now can be said to want strength, power, and prestige, which cannot be said to be disrespectful.

They immediately raised their hands and said, "I have met Duke Tianying and Master Ning."

Lu Yuan waved his hand and said warmly, "You're welcome. Everyone is fighting for the empire now, so there is no need to be so open-minded."

But now he looked at the kings and marshals of the three kingdoms, and couldn't help but be very curious.

In the original plot, all the kingdoms and principalities under the two empires were instigated by Wuhun Palace to rebel, and they completely surrendered to Wuhun Palace with their territories and people.

He has an interaction with the King of Barak Kingdom, and since Quinsim's own throne is secured by him and Ning Fengzhi, he should be less likely to rebel against the Tiandou Empire in the future.

But he has little contact with the other three kingdoms.

Without the intervention of the time traveler Lu Yuan, the situation in the three kingdoms should not have changed much from the original plot.

Doesn't that mean...

In short, the kings and marshals of the three kingdoms completed their self-introduction under Lu Yuan's gaze.

The three kingdoms are the Oka Kingdom, the Sidney Kingdom and the Tianmai Kingdom.

The names of its kings and marshals are Pantesi, Horace, Yulio, Emerson, Xin Yaoqi, and Xin Yaocheng respectively.

However, their existence is still insignificant. Except that the marshals of the kingdoms have to lead the armies of their respective kingdoms and obey the command of the central general of the Tiandou Empire, they actually do not have much say.

Their cultivation bases are generally too low. Needless to say, the kings of the four kingdoms, the eldest like Xin Yaoqi, the king of Tianmai Kingdom, who is over seventy years old, is only a soul king.

With the Soul King's cultivation level, the most he can do in the Tiandou Empire's army is to be a commander, in charge of more than 200 soldiers.

Of course, if you have strong military exploits, you can become a general with an army.

The kings of the other three kingdoms, like the youngest new king of Balak, Kunsim, only have the cultivation level of Soul Lord...

The other two kings, who were in their forties, were both Soul Sect practitioners.

But they are kings after all, and it doesn't matter if their cultivation level is low. After all, the emperor of the Tiandou Empire is still a soul sect.

In fact, when they were able to be sealed off and become kings of the Tiandou Empire, their ancestors must have been very powerful back then.

The same is true for the Tiandou royal family. When they unified the Tiandou Empire, they were very high-spirited and talented. You must know that the martial spirit of the Xue Family of the royal family, the Swan, was once a top-notch martial spirit that was not weaker than the white tiger, the royal family of the Star Luo Empire.

It's a pity that the Tiandou royal family does not have the courage of the Xingluo royal family to engage in ruthless struggles, so their descendants are gradually declining in glory and wealth.

The same is true for the royal families of the four kingdoms. In short, the longer the history of the nobles in the Tiandou Empire, the more useless their descendants are.

However, it doesn’t matter if the king doesn’t go to the battlefield, but the cultivation level of the marshals of the four kingdoms who have to go to the battlefield together is so low...

That's outrageous.

However, among the four marshals of the four kingdoms, the one with the highest cultivation level is Xin Yaocheng, the marshal of Tianmai Kingdom. He is slightly better and has the cultivation of Soul Saint.

This made Lu Yuan couldn't help but take a high look at Tianmai Kingdom. Although Xin Yaocheng's aura was obviously a little weaker, he felt that his cultivation should not be so practical.

But he is a Soul Saint after all, and he should be the younger brother of the king of Tianmai Kingdom. He is only about sixty years old. A Soul Saint in his sixties can actually be regarded as an above-average talent.

But the marshals of the other three kingdoms were all Soul Emperors, which made the marshal of Tianmai Kingdom particularly powerful.

This kind of thing is most afraid of comparison, and it makes the Tianmai Kingdom appear particularly powerful.

But compared to the generals and marshals of the Tiandou Empire, who were basically all Soul Douluo, even the Soul Saint cultivation seemed weak.

Even for Liehuo Hou, a general who was also a Soul Saint, Xin Yaocheng's aura was not as stable and powerful as Liehuo Hou's.

In this case, if Xin Yaocheng, the king of Tianmai Kingdom, fights Liehuo Hou, Liehuohou will definitely win in the end.

In short, the four kingdoms are definitely weaker than the army in the center of Tiandou City.

After Ge Long saw that the core leaders had assembled, he nodded immediately. He sat on the coach's seat with a golden sword, and his eyes swept over the generals below. The tent suddenly became quiet, and the other generals stood solemnly.

"Our army consists of ten thousand people, and everyone is the leader of the army. At present, it seems that the Star Luo Empire army marches directly to the Lima Plain. Although the other party may delay its arrival due to the garrison of major kingdoms and principalities, we can Our mission is to expel the Star Luo Empire army, so a war is inevitable." Ge Long said in a deep voice.

"At present, our army is marching normally. According to reports from scouts, the Star Luo Empire army is about to arrive and is gathering its troops in front of Jialing Pass."

"Today we have summoned all the generals to discuss matters for the purpose of making specific tactical arrangements. I will not go into details about the importance of this battle to the empire. I hope that all generals can work together. If this battle is won, I will report it to Your Majesty after I return. Meritorious deeds are rewarded, and ministers with meritorious deeds are given titles.”

"Although Your Majesty will not be charioteer for the expedition this time, he will be watching our battle from Tiandou City! Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Ge Long also expressed his condolences to Emperor Xueye who was thousands of miles away. loyalty.

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Everyone in the Chinese army camp suddenly said in unison.

"In front of Jialing Pass, the terrain is flat. Although we must avoid the Star Luo Empire due to strategic issues and let it seize this plain. Based on Jialing Pass, the other side will definitely not forcefully attack the city, but we must fight with them. ..." Ge Long continued to say in a deep voice

"Jialing Pass is located in the center of the Tianling Mountains. It is a battleground for military strategists. If one man is in charge of the pass, it will be invincible. We can rely on Jialing Pass to advance, attack, retreat or defend, so the current situation should still be What is most beneficial to us." Fengwu Marquis Andrew said at this time.

"It's all thanks to Duke Tianying who proposed this strategy that we are now in the right place at the right time and with the right people." Liehuo Hou smiled slightly and then said.

Indeed, it has to be said that Lu Yuan's plan was to make the major kingdoms and principalities give up their territory, then gather in Jialing Pass, and then rely on Jialing Pass, a dangerous fortress, to confront the Star Luo Empire. It was indeed a superior plan. .

Even the major kingdoms and principalities may be somewhat reluctant, but so what if they are unwilling.

If the Tiandou Empire did not send troops, their kingdoms and principalities would still be invaded by the Star Luo Empire. Even if the whole country surrendered directly, in this inevitable defeat situation, the Star Luo Empire would still look down on them.

In this case, what's the benefit of surrendering? Maybe they won't even be able to keep their title.

It is better to implement this strategy and assist the Tiandou City army to repel the Star Luo Empire army. If this succeeds, their titles and territory will remain unchanged, and they may also be rewarded by Emperor Xue Ye for their achievements in this battle.

Therefore, they had to agree with Lu Yuan's strategy. The most important thing was that this strategy was indeed the best strategy.

At this moment, Xin Yaocheng, the marshal of the Tianmai Kingdom, asked: "But what if the opponent wants to bypass the Tianling Mountains and attack from other directions?"

Marshal Ge Long frowned and said calmly: "I have also considered this problem, but the feasibility is very low. Not to mention that the army will need to march for many days before it is possible to bypass the Tianling Mountains. Once you want to bypass this If we don't have a mountain range, the other side will have to enter the hinterland of the empire, and the terrain is mostly dominated by hills, valleys, and basins. Once we adopt an outflanking strategy, it will be very detrimental to the Star Luo Empire's operations and will become even more dangerous."

"The other party shouldn't be so stupid that he can't even see this situation clearly."

Everyone nodded immediately. The Star Luo Empire had more famous generals than they did. There were two famous mainland generals, Wang Qianren and Ren En, who were comparable to Ge Long. It was impossible for the other party to not see what Ge Long could see.

"It is indeed true, and after the opponent comes in, there is a possibility of being blocked by our army. And behind Jialing Pass, there is a narrow strip of plains. You can go directly deep into the Zhili area, and you can even go straight to Huanglong. Therefore. , it is imperative for the opponent to break Jialing Pass. Only by attacking from here can the opponent obtain the greatest benefits. Whoever occupies Jialing Pass can advance, attack, and retreat, and this is the best strategy." Marquis Gale said with deep understanding.

"But the opponent probably won't attack the city immediately. After all, the sacrifice of attacking Jialing Pass will be too great," Lu Yuan said.

The Star Luo Empire has experienced the Battle of Zhennanguan, and will definitely learn from the experience and will not attack by force.

"But we can't let the opponent stabilize." Ge Long said, "We must directly break through the opponent's formation before they have built any traps or defensive measures."

"What the Marshal said makes sense." Marquis Fengwu and Marquis Xuanwu, the two highest-ranking generals in the Tiandou Empire, both nodded.

Marquis Xuanwu stood up and said: "What Marshal Ge Long said is absolutely true. There are plains in front and behind Jialing Pass. We can rely on Jialing Pass to fully display the power of the army. Even if we fail to attack the enemy, Jialing Pass behind us can defeat the enemy." The main force of our army retreated smoothly. At the same time, behind Jialing Pass, there are three main cities of our empire guarding and helping each other. When we retreat, we will never be overwhelmed."

Ge Long immediately nodded and said: "In this case, we will proceed according to the original plan. However, since we can think of attacking Jialing Pass, the Xingluo Empire can naturally think of it. Jialing Pass has a steep terrain, built on the mountain, and the city wall is as high as Hundreds of meters, hundreds of meters thick, facing the empire’s army, it will be difficult for the Star Luo Empire to successfully break through the city.”

"And we are going to fight a war of attrition with the Star Luo Empire. The war of attrition will certainly cause us some losses, but relying on Jialing Pass, their losses will be even greater. What we have to do is to control our army as much as possible The ratio of losses to the enemy's. Our Tiandou Empire now has millions of troops, waiting for work, and a steady stream of logistical supplies. If such a war of attrition is fought, the situation will only become more and more favorable to us."

"What do you think, Duke Tianying?" He looked at Lu Yuan again.

Lu Yuan is now admired not only for his strength, background and power, but also for the past few years, his cumulative achievements in killing Gao Zhong, guarding Zhennan, retreating soul beasts, master strategy, etc., make him even at his age. No one dares to ignore Shang Qing.

Ge Long also sincerely respects Lu Yuan, the youngest general and duke in the empire. After all, even Gao Zhong, an evenly matched opponent he had fought against many times, was killed by Lu Yuan, so what capital does he have? Look down on Lu Yuan.

"The marshal's plan is exactly what I want." Lu Yuan said.

It is true that Ge Long, the marshal of the Tiandou Empire, has rich military experience and his planning and strategy are also quite outstanding.

Although Lu Yuan had a strong record and was still the leader in proposing this grand strategy, he was indeed not as good as Ge Long in some details.

Ge Long just said everything he could think of, and everything he didn't expect.

"In this case, we will continue to check for leaks and fill them up." Ge Long looked at the other generals and said, "If you have any ideas, you can speak freely."

In this way, a series of tactical discussions were held in the Chinese army's tent.

The discussion lasted for two and a half hours before the military meeting ended.

At this time, within the four kingdoms.

In the vast plain area, the prosperous human city is now dead silent, and it seems to have become a dead city.

However, this dead silence was soon broken.

"Boom - boom -" the sound of horse hooves, like wind and thunder, came clearly from a distance.

Soon, elite cavalry armies raised huge clouds of dust and rushed towards these dead human cities.

Judging from the standard armor on their bodies, there was no doubt that they were the Star Luo Empire's army marching towards the Four Kingdoms, and the flags fluttering in the wind among the troops behind them revealed their identities.

The elite of the Star Luo Empire, the Blood Wolf Cavalry, the Wild Lion Cavalry, and the Star Luo Royal Knights.

There are only nearly 300,000 cavalry troops, but in the eyes of the Star Luo Empire, these 300,000 cavalry troops are enough to defeat an army of one million people.

Just because they are the elite among the elite of the Star Luo Empire.

However, these elites are useless at this moment.

Because they had traveled hundreds of miles, from the Principality of Hel across the Lima Plain, and then deep into King Balak City, they had never seen a single person from the Tiandou Empire.

Not to mention, the enemies of the Tiandou Empire.

In the past few days, they had occupied the vast Tiandou Empire of the four kingdoms and many principalities without any blood.

In the middle army, although one arm was broken, Ren was still extremely powerful in armor. He frowned and listened to the scouts in front talking about the situation in the Balak Kingdom ahead.

"So...did the four major kingdoms retreat together?" Ren muttered to himself, "What a courage. Did you want to trade space for time from the beginning?"
