Transmigration begins with archery training

"Ah."

After calming down, the King of Qin began to analyze the situation: "The great victory at Chibi is a foregone conclusion. We can now discuss our subsequent strategic plans and see how we can completely annihilate them in the shortest possible time."

"Your Majesty!"

"The Prince is in trouble!!!"

A eunuch stumbled into the hall.

"The three county towns of Xianglong, Tangli, and Donghua were captured by the enemy several days ago..."

"and many more!"

The King of Qin raised his hand to interrupt, asking, "Where?"

Many officials gathered in front of the sand table.

After more than ten breaths, they finally found the three county towns on the west bank of the Luoxiao River within the prefecture.

"Who?"

After locating the city, the King of Qin inquired further, "How many enemy troops are there, and who are their generals?"

"About three to five thousand people."

The eunuch produced the battle report, his hands and voice trembling slightly: "The general... the commander is... Chen Sanshi!"

……

Red Cliff.

Luo Xiaojiang.

The central warship.

"General Zhou!"

"Governor Zhou!"

"found it!"

"We've got news about Chen Sanshi!"

"..."

Upon receiving the news, a lieutenant general immediately came to report.

"Donghua County?!"

Upon hearing this, the King of Qi hurriedly said, "His appearance in Donghua County at this time means that he probably set off early this morning, long before Sima Yao's feigned surrender!"

"What's the meaning?!"

Zhang Jingwu was taken aback: "Could it be that Chen Sanshi anticipated that Lord Zhou would see through his ruse, so he made other preparations?!"

"This this……"

Yan Hongyuan hissed coldly, "What does this kid Chen want to do?"

"I see!"

Third Senior Brother Nie Yuan suddenly spoke up, startling everyone. He slammed his hand on the map: "Governor Zhou, Your Highness Prince Qi, generals, look quickly, what's further south of Donghua County?"

"Fuyu Prefecture?"

Everyone said in unison.

"Fuyu Prefecture is the granary of our naval army!"

King Qi's pupils trembled, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Does Hunter Chen intend to repeat the burning of Guandu and the destruction of my 400,000-strong army's provisions?!"

"That's too late!"

Yan Hongyuan stamped his feet and pounded his chest, saying, "In at most two more days, that brat surnamed Chen will be able to reach Fuyu Prefecture. Our forces in the east are depleted and we simply won't have time to return to defend! The food and supplies for my 400,000 troops for half a year will probably all be burned to ashes!"

"That's not all."

Third Senior Brother Nie Yuan delivered another piece of bad news: "Everyone, take another look. Where does the back of Fuyu Prefecture lead to?"

Behind Fuyu Prefecture lies a continuous mountain range with rugged and difficult roads, making it impassable for large armies. However, within this range lies an ancient road that has existed for over a thousand years.

Ziwu Valley!

At the end of the Ziwu Valley...

It's Chang'an, the capital!

Until this moment.

Then everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

"Is Hunter Chen planning to strike directly at Meishan?!"

King Qi was breathing heavily.

"Yes!"

"Not to mention that His Highness the Prince of Qin and all the civil and military officials are in the capital."

"His Majesty is currently in seclusion in the Longevity Palace. If he is disturbed, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"..."

"Master Zhou!"

"Governor Zhou?"

"Why are not you talking?"

What should we do next?

"..."

As soon as the news of Chen Sanshi's appearance on land came, the officials, both high and low, inside the ship's cabin were all more or less thrown into a state of panic and unease.

Zhou Rong was the only exception.

He was in a state of anxiety until he found the white robe.

But at this moment, knowing that the grain and provisions of the 400,000-strong army stationed in Fuyu Prefecture were about to be burned to ashes, Zhou Rong became extremely calm and composed.

"Governor Zhou, why aren't you worried at all?"

King Qi said anxiously, "It's okay if we run out of grain, but we absolutely cannot let Chen Sanshi march on Chang'an!"

Zhou Rong suddenly stood up: "The enemy has been defeated, so there is no need to worry anymore. Let's seize the time to pursue the bandits and force them into Donghan Lake."

"Master Zhou..."

Nie Yuan asked, puzzled, "Are you not planning to deal with the group led by Chen Sanshi?"

"The Ziwu Valley Scheme".

Zhou Rong said leisurely, "Are you all so frightened that you've forgotten that Master Shan Liangcheng is still near the capital? Once they leave Ziwu Valley, Master Shan can turn back to stop them. In addition, Ling Kui, the ancestor of the Ling family from the Mangshan ancestral lineage, will also be returning soon."

"When Chen Sanshi leads his troops out of the Ziwu Valley, he will have at most three to five thousand light cavalry. In the end, they will inevitably be stopped outside the capital."

"But leaving him..."

"The 200,000 rebel troops still at Chibi are nothing but a rabble, and this is the perfect opportunity for us to wipe out the bandits!"

"No, it's not just Luo Xiaojiang's two hundred thousand."

"And Youlan Prefecture, and even Beiliang, will all be pacified by us with thunderous force!"

I heard him make this call.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes."

Ling Ling said, "Our ancestor has already single-handedly killed several Fallen Leaf Valley cultivators in the Mangshan ancestral vein, including some martial artists who came with bounties. It can be said that he suffered heavy losses. Our ancestor will set off for the capital soon. Their so-called Ziwu Valley plot will not succeed at all."

This war could not have been won by one person alone.

The Heavenly Book Array set up by Shan Liangcheng, a second-tier array master, with the help of his troops, combined with the arrays from the cultivation world, was something that Chen Sanshi alone could not break.

Not to mention Ling Kui, the patriarch of the Ling family, a martial artist at the mid-stage of the True Strength realm.

Mid-stage True Strength cultivator has combat power equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

"That's good……"

"So, Chen Sanshi is resorting to desperate measures?"

"That's absolutely insane!"

"If it weren't for Shan Liangcheng and Ling Kui from the Ling family, he might actually have succeeded!"

"Unfortunately, what 'what if' applies to military campaigns?"

"..."

"Inform Master Shan and Senior Ling Kui."

Zhou Rong issued the order: "They must drop everything and rush back to the capital to defend it! As for Chen Sanshi, he will naturally return to face his death after he has run into the wall!"

This attempt at Ziwu Valley can be considered an attempt by the rebels in a desperate situation.

This aligns with the White Coat's character of never sitting idly by and waiting for death.

Even if they couldn't directly attack Chang'an, they could still burn half a year's worth of provisions for the imperial army of 400,000, causing them significant losses.

"What happened after the grain supplies of Fuyu Prefecture were burned?"

soon.

Yan Hongyuan had already considered this problem: "This batch of grain is about to run out, and the next batch is still in Fuyu Prefecture. If Fuyu Prefecture is captured at this time, we will run out of food within ten days."

The consequences of running out of food supplies are self-evident, and everyone present was well aware of them.

If the soldiers are hungry, even the largest ship and the strongest formation will be useless.

Unfortunately, food supplies are scarce now. The reason why they can still supply an army of 400,000 is twofold: first, they use local resources, and second, they have waterways to transport supplies, which can save on losses.

If the grain and fodder in the Fuyu Prefecture were burned to ashes.
