Lan Cai’er nodded slightly, “I shall obey.”

Lu Yuan continued to address his disciple Zhou Qing at his side, saying, “Qing’er, you will also command twenty thousand soldiers to attack the bandit’s eastern camp.”

Zhou Qing stepped forward, saying, “I accept the order.”

Once these instructions were over, Lu Yuan looked at his few right-hand men he laughed, “Later, I will personally lead the army, attacking the the bandit’s northern camp. I want to see, Gui Lianyun has set up four camps to block me, and I will attack from all sides, fiercely charging, if he could possibly resist?”

Upon hearing this, the three people at his side all let out a hearty laugh.

Furthermore, Yang Jing said, “This time, the three of us who are Inborn Grandmasters will act together, and even if Gui Lianyun has great abilities, he would be overwhelmed and unable to help everywhere. The rest of the Zhou people, without his help, facing us who are Inborn Grandmasters, would all be easy prey. Maybe tonight, we can sleep in the city.”

The Martial Proclamation Marquis, was very optimistic about the ability to take down Ningfu City.

In actuality, he should indeed be optimistic.

Why did Bai Mengyang believe that only Lu Yuan could complete his miracle plan, ambushing hundreds of miles behind the Zhou people, and finally approaching under the walls of Xiangyang City?

This was not only because the soldiers under Lu Yuan’s command, met the requirements to execute this miraculous plan, but also because the in Lu Yuan’s army, there were two Inborn Grandmasters, himself and Lan Cai’er.

If you also include Yang Jing, who came to support, it was a total of three people.

There were three Inborn Grandmasters in the whole army, and the enemy they faced, had only one Inborn Grandmaster, Gui Lianyun of Ningfu City.

With an advantage of three times in top military strength, and twice the number of soldiers, if they couldn’t complete the miracle plan under such almost crushing advantage.

Then Lu Yuan and the others, might as well wash up early and go back to the countryside to farm, and stop messing around in this world.

This game of dominating the world, is not so easy to play, and does not tolerate incompetence.

Hearing Yang Jing’s words, Lu Yuan couldn’t help laughing: “If one wishes to sleep in the city tonight, then everyone later, must really do their best. Kill a few more Zhou bandits, kill your way into the city, only then can you do so.”

When Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately said, “I will surely exert all my efforts.”

Lan Cai’er also chimed in, “I shall do the same.”

Looking at their expressions, they were all like Yang Jing. They had no doubts about breaking into Ningfu City. Everyone was very relaxed.

Seeing that the morale was high, Lu Yuan seized the opportunity to issue the order for the army to attack the city.

Then, out of the hundred thousand soldiers, except for leaving twenty thousand to build up the camp and guard the supplies, the remaining 80,000 was divided into four parts. Each was led by Lu Yuan and his men, attacking the four camps outside the Zhou people’s city.

On the wide plain, the drums of war roared, the Xuanlong Banner of Da Yue was waving, and a large number of soldiers surged toward the camp like a tide.

Yang Jing, sitting in his war chariot, led his own twenty thousand soldiers, obeying Lu Yuan’s order, and was the first to move, preparing to launch the first wave of attack on the Zhou people.

The Zhou people inside the western camp quickly noticed this, and then a shout of warning quickly woke up the soldiers inside the camp.

“We are under attack!”

“The Yue people are coming.”

“Prepare rolling stones and wooden blocks, archers prepare, when the bandits get close, throw and shoot them.”

“Get everyone in the camp up and ready to defend the camp, sharp.”

“The cavalry get ready, once the enemy is repelled, attack and kill the enemy.”

The Zhou general defending the western camp, after receiving the notification, immediately got to the gate of the camp, and then a series of orders were issued from his mouth.

Without fault, the Zhou people were elite, and not long after receiving the order, groups of warriors arrived at the side of the camp wall.

And below the camp wall, formations quickly gathered one after another, ready to rush up to replace their comrades at any time.

In less than half an a hour, the tens of thousands of defenders in the camp had fully mobilized.

In fact, not only here, but also in the city, Gui Lianyun, the main general of this place, was notified in the first place and learned that there were Yue troops attacking the city from the west.

“The Yue troops have appeared in the west of the city, and the symbol on the commander’s flag is a ‘Yang’?”

Upon hearing the situation described by the messenger, Gui Lianyun’s brows furrowed, “The main direction of the Yue people’s attack is the west of the city? And that ‘Yang’ flag, could it be that the commander is the Martial Proclamation Marquis Yang Jing of the Yue people?”

This was because when Lu Yuan was leading his army to march west, for the sake of concealment, he didn’t fly his flag openly, allowing only Yang Jing to display his commander’s flag.

So in the eyes of outsiders, the head of the westward marching army of a hundred thousand men, was indisputably Yang Jing.

At this moment, hearing that Yang Jing’s commander’s flag had appeared in the west of the city, Gui Lianyun’s heart rose suddenly.

If he were to ignore an Inborn Grandmaster, the mere ten thousand soldiers at the western camp could not stop him.

Thinking of this, Gui Lianyun immediately said to the messenger, “You go back and tell Wei Yan to keep an eye and check whether it is Yang Jing himself taking action. If it’s him, don’t try to resist strongly, let people into the camp first, and surround them with the main forces. I will come to aid promptly.”

To be on the safe side, Gui Lianyun did not immediately rush to the Western Camp, but planned to observe more.

For soldiers are deceptive, who knows if this is a distraction strategy by the Yue people.

If he was fooled and rushed to the west of the city, but neglected other directions. Allowing the Yue people to find an opportunity, and to break into the city, then it would be too late for regrets.

“Yes.”

After receiving the order, the messenger saluted and then hurried away to deliver the message.

After sending the messenger, Gui Lianyun also quickly mobilized, calling up five thousand soldiers in the city. All were armored and ready to fight, ready to strike at a moment’s notice.
