TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 745: Chapter 328 Besieged City People’s Heart

Flurries of snow fluttered from the sky, and a cold wind blew from the north, causing the flags around to flutter.

Dongfang Wuyun stood on the city wall, his eyes looking east, watching the continuous military camps stationed along the south bank of the Han River, a trace of worry floating in his eyes.

The Chu people came too fast, and it was too unexpected.

No one had thought that Chu State, which had originally been having a pleasant conversation and had quickly reached a huge grain trade deal with them, would suddenly launch a sneak attack during the grain trade.

Over ten thousand elite troops and hundreds of thousands of civilian workers conscripted from all over the army in Nanjiang Prefecture were nearly wiped out in one fell swoop during the Chu’s sudden attack.

Even Nanjiang Prefecture, in its emptiness, was easily taken by the Chu people.

When the news reached Nanzheng city, Dongfang Wuyun, who was reading the accounts in the government office at the time, dropped his pen in shock.

He really didn’t understand how the Chu people dared and were able to send troops to Hanzhong.

Given the current situation of Chu State with internal and external troubles, where did they get the confidence to attack Zhou Country?

Yes, Zhou Country is currently facing enemies on three sides, and the situation is indeed very unfavorable.

But of Zhou Country’s three battlefields, the eastern Henan Prefecture is supported by the natural defenses of Helong, with a large river to the north and dangerous passes to the southeast. With 200,000 troops stationed there and two Pillar State Grand Generals presiding, they can protect themselves even if Liang sends 500,000 troops to attack.

The northern Shuofang Prefecture, though without dangerous passes, also has a large river for support, and its vast grasslands and deserts make it difficult for people to traverse, which can also be considered a natural barrier.

Zhou Country’s 300,000 most elite Northern Border troops are stationed here, led by two Pillar State Grand Generals, who have kept the Wei people from crossing the river for decades.
