Chapter 178: Unfavorable Situation

The journey was long and there was no time to rest, so Chen Yuenian led his troops all the way north, traveling almost day and night without stopping.

Yu Tianji was aware of his whereabouts, and with so many people around, it would be hard for him not to be known.

Yu Tianji sent several groups of assassins, but they were easily dealt with by Chen Yuenian and others.

It seems that Chen Yuenian has the upper hand.

However, the situation was far worse than Chen Yuenian had imagined. Based on the intelligence he had collected along the way, Yu Tianji was obviously being guided by an expert.

They seemed to know clearly every thought of Chen Yuenian, and always rushed before Chen Yuenian to crush his hopes and leave evidence to provoke Chen Yuenian.

As long as Chen Yuenian is unhappy, their goal will be achieved.

As for why he didn't suspect that it was Yu Tianji who came to his senses, Chen Yuenian just wanted to say that if Yu Tianji had such a good brain, he would not have been beaten back by him without any ability to fight back.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is difficult to fight. It is very difficult to fight.

It's difficult to break through.

First of all, up to now, Chen Yuenian still has not been able to get accurate information, and he is not sure how many troops Yu Tianji has brought.

If the combined number of those in the open and in the dark exceeds his, rushing forward will lead to death. Even if he has a precise and perfect plan, he will become exhausted by the continuous fighting and will eventually be wiped out.

Lying on a haystack on the top of a mountain, looking down from the top, you can see the Zhou army's camp. The lights are brightly on, and you can see the lights from this side from a long distance.

Not only had they won the battle and captured the city, but they also held bonfire parties at night to improve the food. They also had guards every three steps and sentries every five steps, with everyone holding torches in their hands, guarding the city so strictly that not even a fly could fly in.

Qin Xiwan felt that everything was weird and it was too abnormal.

"Commander, have you noticed that Yu Tianji is too successful? You asked Yue Xichao to lead his troops north, and there are others who imitated you. They are about to reach Yuncheng. It is normal for you to say that he has been prepared for this situation.

It's just that we quietly went around the border between the two countries, and the time was much faster. Even if Yu Tianji had prepared for us in advance, it wouldn't have caused such a big scene.

What's more, we took a secret passage, so there was no way we would be discovered. But they were stationed right at the entrance of the secret passage, which was too much of a coincidence. Do you think there might be a spy in the barracks?"

In order to seek refuge, Chen Yuenian made preparations in advance and had people dig a tunnel underground that could lead directly to the tower city. It could also be used as a means of attacking the enemy when unnecessary. After all, who would have thought that the ground they were standing on was hollow.

The strange thing is that this tunnel has never been used.

Moreover, there were dangers everywhere along the way, and many people were killed before reaching Loucheng. Loucheng is not the border between the two countries, and Yu Tianji also has a far-reaching hand that can reach here and trip him up.

Chen Yuenian was forced into a desperate situation, so he decided to go and see the situation in person with Qin Xiwan.

Qin Xiwan rarely appears in public, and many people think that Chen Yuenian’s military advisor is a man, so her disappearance will not attract attention.

The two men prepared for the worst, thinking at the very least they would be able to get some intelligence. However, they died before they could accomplish their mission, and their way forward was blocked.

The exit of the tunnel is right below the tent of Zhou army’s commander-in-chief at this moment, and Yu Tianji is most likely inside.

Fortunately, Qin Xiwan had extraordinary hearing and sensed something was wrong in advance. They hurriedly turned back and spent half a day digging a new tunnel, temporarily blocking the original tunnel leading to the exit.

Chen Yuenian lay in the dry grass, covering most of his body. Because it was dark, he squinted his eyes slightly, and the lights in the distance were reflected in his eyes. "I can't rule out this possibility."

In the previous life, Raocheng.

Chen Yuenian asked them to escape through the tunnel, and then set up an empty city plan to deceive Yu Tianji. However, there were many people in Raocheng, and Yu Tianji's secret sentries were watching, so they were soon discovered. The tunnel escape route was not feasible, and finally the tunnel was discovered and filled up by Yu Tianji's men.

According to this, Yu Tianji may have been reborn.

Is rebirth so common these days? Chen Yuenian thought gloomily.

Since the speculation could not be verified, Chen Yuenian and Qin Xiwan could only leave first.

Riding on his warhorse, Chen Yuenian contacted 999 again, "Can you help check if Yu Tianji has been reborn?"

A moment later, 999 sent a message: "Yu Tianji was not reborn, someone betrayed you."

Chen Yuenian frowned subconsciously, "Who is it?"

999 gave a name.

After Chen Yuenian returned, he immediately asked someone to check the person's information.

As he expected, it turned out to be someone Yu Tianji had planted next to him a long time ago. It took him nearly five years to get close to him, and almost two years to get the news of the secret passage, and he told Yu Tianji as soon as possible.

He was also mixed in the team at this time, and the last piece of information he heard was that Chen Yuenian and the military advisor had disappeared.

Outsiders didn’t know that Chen Yuenian’s military advisor was a woman, but she had been there for seven years after all.

Chen Yuenian asked Chen Fu to roast the carrier pigeons he caught on the road. There were ten of them in total, and most of the information they contained was useless.

Unfortunately, the information about Chen Yuenian was passed on, which led to Yu Tianji's strict defense.

Chen Fu plucked feathers and made a fire in silence. In the middle of the night, he saw a carrier pigeon flying in the sky. It could only be Chen Yuenian.

Qin Xiwan took the opportunity to interrogate the spy and prepared to catch all the other spies in the military camp.

It took the Zhou Kingdom seven years to successfully train a spy. Now that more than twenty spies were caught at once, I can’t imagine how many were not successfully trained.

Zhou Guo's hand was too long. If it weren't for 999's reminder, Chen Yuenian would have found it difficult to find the spy. It would be a waste of time to check hundreds of thousands of people over and over again.

By that time, Chen Yuenian's spy had not been found yet, but Yu Tianji brought people to kill him.

Chen Yuenian killed those twenty or so people and only asked Chen Fu to hang the body of the person who leaked the secret in front of the Zhou Kingdom’s camp, where it was almost discovered by their people.

Worried that Yu Tianji didn't know who this person was, Chen Yuenian stripped him of his clothes and wrote four big words on his body, "I am a spy", to ensure that Yu Tianji would be able to recognize who he was at a glance.

Fortunately, there was no danger. The remaining bodies were used to block the tunnel. Since the tunnel had been discovered, there was no way to reuse it. They just filled it with bodies to avoid digging more holes.

Perhaps it was the spy's corpse that angered Yu Tianji. For nearly a month, Yu Tianji launched a fierce attack without regard for his life.

Among the ten battles, Liang State lost six times. This was also the first time that they were suppressed by Zhou State without a chance to breathe. It was really unbelievable.

However, things change over time. Even if Chen Yuenian is a god of war, he cannot win every time.
