Chapter 228: War breaks out again
As Gerle announced the news of Takumu Khan's death.
The entire Canglang Kingdom was plunged into panic for a while.
When the whole news reached Jiang Chen, he was shocked for a moment.
It has to be said that the death of Takumu Khan caused the seven countries to fall into silence at the same time.
Although Jiang Chen has not been in this world for long, he has already heard about the glorious achievements of this "Wolf Lord".
The original Canglang Kingdom could be said to be a barbarian nation composed of countless nomadic tribes of all sizes.
But with the sudden emergence of Takumu Khan, he brought with him his mother's tribe of only more than 300 people.
Step by step, he gradually unified all the tribes of Canglang within ten years!
Only then can the Canglang Nation be called "a country"...
During the forty-two years that the "Wolf Lord" ruled the Canglang Kingdom, the entire Canglang Kingdom had always been at the top of the seven countries in terms of national strength.
Now, with the passing of this "Wolf Lord", Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
"I was born at the wrong time. If only I had come into this world earlier..."
"Then you will have the chance to fight against such a 'hero'."
…
After the news of Takumu Khan's death caused the Seven Kingdoms to fall into a brief period of silence.
Gongsun Liang hurried to Jiang Chen's house.
"My lord, my lord, something bad has happened!"
Gongsun Liang hurriedly pushed open the door of Jiang Chen's study and ran in in a panic.
"What happened!?"
Looking at Gongsun Liang 's anxious expression, Jiang Chen knew.
The thing that could make this military advisor so panic must be no small matter!
Sure enough, when Gongsun Liang took a breath, the news he told made Jiang Chen frown.
"My lord, Qi and Ming have simultaneously launched attacks on the border where the King of Jin is stationed!"
"What!?"
"How could Qi and Ming choose to suddenly take action at this time?!"
After hearing the news, Jiang Chen slammed the table in surprise.
Logically speaking, Qi and Ming have always been incompatible.
But now, these two countries, which are supposed to be sworn enemies, have joined forces to attack the Xia Kingdom!
This really made Jiang Chen a little confused...
At the same time, on the border between Xia, Qi and Ming.
Countless blue-armored soldiers and red-armored soldiers were chasing and killing countless Xia soldiers wearing yellow armor.
Looking at the coalition forces of Qi and Ming all over the mountains, the Xia army was frightened.
The Qi and Ming coalition forces suddenly appeared in front of them like divine troops descending from the sky!
What followed was a bloody massacre.
The main commander of these 5,000 Xia troops had already died at the hands of a Ming general.
"Brothers, kill them!"
"Kill all these Xia dogs and enhance our country's prestige!"
Looking at the Xia army fleeing frantically, the Qi army commander Le Bo smiled slightly and shouted loudly to the Qi soldiers behind him.
Hearing Le Bo's loud shout, the Ming army's commander, Chang Yuchun, also shouted to his soldiers without wanting to be outdone.
"Ming country's sons and daughters, please show some courage!"
"Let the people of Qi see what it means to be a man!"
With the encouragement from Chang Yuchun and Le Bo, the soldiers of Qi and Ming seemed to be energized.
They chased more than 5,000 Xia troops for almost half an hour!
Until a majestic pass blocked their way.
Le Bo and Chang Yuchun had no choice but to give up the pursuit.
This majestic pass is none other than the majestic pass in the northern border of the Xia Kingdom - "Juyu Pass"!
In order to guard the northern border and prevent invasion from Qi and Ming, the King of Jin stationed a full 10,000 troops here.
In addition, King Jin also sent Xiong Kehui, his most skilled defender, here.
Looking at the Qi-Ming coalition army numbering as many as 50,000 outside the city, Xiong Kehui couldn't help but feel a headache.
He didn't expect that there were a full 5,000 Jin Wang troops stationed at the border outposts.
In the end, only a small number of less than 800 people escaped into Juyu Pass!
However, when Xiong Kehui saw that the troops were led by Le Bo and Chang Yuchun.
All the doubts in Xiong Kehui's mind disappeared in an instant.
The reason is simple, simply because these two people are famous generals in the seven countries !
After the 50,000-strong Qi-Ming coalition army, led by Le Bo and Chang Yuchun, failed in a tentative attack on the city.
Le Bo and Chang Yuchun led their army to set up camp at the foot of Juyu Pass.
When the news reached Jincheng, the King of Jin was immediately enraged.
“How is this possible!?”
"Five thousand people, and they didn't even notice the invasion of Qi and Ming!"
"Is this king raising a bunch of pigs and dogs, or a bunch of gluttons?"
The furious King Jin loudly scolded his subordinates.
At the same time, he smashed several vases in his study to the ground.
Faced with the reprimand from King Jin, all the subordinates lowered their heads, fearing that they would be used by King Jin to vent his anger.
After venting his anger, Prince Jin looked at the mess on the floor of the study.
"Go, find Sun Zhong for me, quickly, quickly!"
Soon, according to Prince Jin's instructions, Sun Zhong hurried to Prince Jin's mansion.
"Zhong, meet the lord."
"Alright, Sun Zhong, get up quickly. I want to ask you a question."
"How can I defeat the invasion of Qi and Ming?!"
When King Jin saw Sun Zhong coming, he hurriedly stood up and ran to Sun Zhong, took Sun Zhong's hand and asked.
"My Lord, you don't need to worry about this problem."
"In your opinion, the most urgent thing is to report this matter to the court."
"After we report it to the court, we will respond accordingly."
As Sun Zhong spoke , he bowed to King Jin.
"If only it were that simple, I wouldn't care."
"Then the entire northern border will probably be in chaos. How about this..."
"Write a letter immediately and have the seven mountains and forty-nine villages get ready to fight at any time!"
After hearing Sun Zhong's suggestion, King Jin did not have time to think about it and directly refused.
If he followed Sun Zhong's advice, the King of Jin would not have to face the armies of Qi and Ming alone.
However, King Jin, who was always stubborn and strong-willed by nature, hated being provoked.
Now the armies of Qi and Ming have reached their doorsteps.
If he doesn't take action, he will become a coward!
This is the King Jin of Xia State, even though he has a rebellious heart.
But when facing foreign invasion, this royal noble also has the pride unique to the Xia people!
Under the order of King Jin, 49,000 people from 7 mountains and 49 villages gathered in the camp outside Jincheng.
After arranging all logistical matters, King Jin personally led the 49,000 people to Juyu Pass first!
After receiving the news that Prince Jin was sending troops, Jiang Chen said nothing.
He simply sent Du Mingyu and Han Zhong directly, leading the Tiger and Leopard Battalion towards Juyu Pass.
