The battle of gale was far from as easy as Chuan Country And Zhen Country had imagined. It was as though once the two armies arrived, they could stomp the Feng Country to the ground after a single walk.

The weather at Feng Country was extremely cold and dry, which made it extremely difficult for the warriors of the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country to get used to it. After a long journey which took a thousand miles, not only had the soldiers been exhausted for a long time, the logistics supply line had also been attacked repeatedly by the Feng Army, causing them to be extremely nervous about the supplies and provisions. Furthermore, the Feng Country's military might was much stronger than expected.

All sorts of factors had greatly weakened Ren Fang's confidence, and he was no longer able to see any hope for the annihilation of the wind battle.

First, he wanted to wait for Jin Zhuo to completely destroy the Feng Army within the Gaochuan County, so that his own side no longer had any worries when attacking it. Secondly, when the Huan Army arrives, although the battle of Huan Army is far weaker than that of the Chastity Army, it is still an army of four hundred thousand people.

However, both of Ren Fang's expectations had come to naught.

First, it was Jin Zhuo's army of two hundred thousand, whose morale was as high as a macro mountain. They majestically entered the Gaochuan County and then completely searched for the whereabouts of the Feng Army, anxious to start a frontal battle with the Feng Army.

However, Zuo Shuang knew that the enemy was strong and he was weak, so he did not give the enemy any chances to face him head on. The mountainous and forested environment within the Gaochuan County gave him a vast space to circle around.

Although Jin Zhuo's team held the absolute advantage in terms of military strength, they were being led by the nose by the Xijing Army. They were in a passive situation. Jin Zhuo himself also understood that if he continued to chase and kill the enemies, his soldiers would become more and more exhausted, and their fighting strength would also become weaker and weaker. How to catch up with the main force of Feng Army was something that Jin Zhuo had to put in a lot of effort into thinking about.

In the end, Jin Zhuo thought of placing a large bounty on them. As long as the people of Feng Country were willing to provide the whereabouts of the Feng Army, and as long as the information was accurate, the bounty would be ten thousand gold.

Only, there were a large number of people who reported false information and not many people who reported the truth. Regarding this vast amount of information, it made Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country even more confused and disoriented, as if there were Feng Army everywhere in the entire Gaochuan County.

Jin Zhuo had no other choice but to advance to seize Lishan City and station the entire army. After all, Lishan City was once the logistic base, so if he was unable to find any traces of Feng Army, then seizing Lishan City first would allow him to have no success.

Lishan City had originally stored a large amount of resources and fodder, but now, it was completely empty inside. Even the citizens of Feng Country had fled, and were no different from a city of death.

On the second day after Jin Zhuo led the troops into the Lishan City, the food supplies that were sent over from the main camp were ambushed by the small amount of Feng Army. Most of the food carts in the main group were burnt down and plundered, and after hearing about this, Jin Zhuo became enraged, and sent his army to settle down, leading twenty thousand of them to chase down the small amount of Feng Army.

Who would have known that An Gong's twenty thousand Chuan Army would be a trap for the Xijing Army, and that they were completely surrounded by over fifty thousand people's Xijing Army. The situation was in a precarious situation, and An Gong's deputy general had desperately fought his way out of the encirclement, escaping back to the Lishan City to report to Jin Zhuo. This matter was related to the life and death of the twenty thousand brothers, Jin Zhuo did not dare to delay them, and immediately led the main army out of the city to resolve the siege of the An Palace.

But just as they left, the main force of Xijing Army appeared again near the Lishan City, and with lightning speed, they charged into the city. When Jin Zhuo led the huge army to the place where An Palace was trapped, the fifty thousand Xijing Army surrounding the An Palace had already disappeared without a trace. There wasn't enough time to investigate in detail where the enemy had gone, so Jin Zhuo hurriedly returned.

The Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country that had just seized the Lishan City ran away again. However, the materials that the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country had left in the city were all looted, and the majority of the soldiers that were left to guard were also mostly killed.

Jin Zhuo had fought in battles for most of his life, but he had never encountered such a cunning opponent. The elusive appearance of Feng Army gave him a feeling of helplessness. With two hundred thousand kilograms of elite Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, even those hundred thousand kilograms of Xijing Army, which were not very strong in combat, were completely tied down by the opponent's Gaochuan County.

It was also during the battle of Gaochuan County that the name Zuo Shuang was remembered by the people of the Profound Sky Continent, and Zuo Shuang was also able to completely solidify his military position within the Feng Country.

Jin Zhuo's side was at a disadvantage when fighting, and his Huan Army was also unable to enter the borders of the Feng Country.

As the Huan Army passed through the Mo Country, it was intercepted by the Sanshui Army. Sanshui Army was still less than a hundred thousand, but Huan Army had four hundred thousand troops. Logically speaking, the difference in strength between the two sides should be very large, and Huan Army could completely suppress the opponent, but after both sides had started fighting, four hundred thousand Huan Army could not gain any advantage on the battlefield, and could only fight to the point of being equally matched with Sanshui Army.

Just as the two sides were about to enter a half-stalemate state, the Mo Country suddenly intervened again.

Without any warning, Mo Country suddenly entered the battle, and started the attack from the back. The Sanshui Army was enough to make it hard for the Huan Army, now with the addition of the Huben Army's sneak attack, how could the Huan Army still be able to hold on? Although the casualties from the defeat by the Second Army weren't great, the forty strong army had been scattered.

After suddenly launching a sneak attack on Huan Army, Mo Country made an explanation on this matter, saying that the reason why Mo Army attacked Huan Army was not to assist them, nor was it to make enemies with the other countries of the Wind Slaying Alliance, but because when Huan Army passed through the territory of Mo Country, they plundered and killed innocent people of Mo Country, and at the same time enumerated some evidence.

Mo Country insisted that Huan Army killed the commoners, stole their belongings, and now even Huan Army could not explain this.

The reason why Mo Country changed its attitude of watching the battle from the sidelines was to directly participate in the battle. One of the reasons was because Tang Yin's envoy had already arrived at the Zhenjiang, and when he saw King Mo, he explained the current situation of the battle to Shao Fang in detail, requesting his support. Secondly, the matter of Zhen Jun killing the citizens of Mo Country and causing plague had already spread throughout the Mo Country, causing people to hate Zhen Jun to the bone. Even so, they still hated Chuan Army to the core. Especially the military Generals, they all thought that the chastity army's actions and actions in the Mo Country were extremely humiliating for the Mo Country, if they did not seek justice, how would the Mo Country have any face to live within the other nations in the future?

It was just that the Minister of Imperial Court were opposed to it. Now that he had the support of the generals and the citizens of the entire country, she no longer had any concerns and came at the right time for Shangguan Yuanwu to ask for help again, so Shao Fang went along with the flow and ordered the Huben Army to help him with the Huan Army.

Just like that, four hundred thousand Huan Army became the scapegoat for the Chastity Army, and as the target of Mo Country's anger, under the pincer attack from Sanshui Army, the entire army was defeated and dispersed.

In this battle, Liang Qi could be considered to have witnessed the impressiveness of Huben Army. A hundred thousand cavalrymen, when attacking, were like mountains and seas, and without fighting, just the momentum of a hundred thousand cavalrymen charging forward was enough to intimidate any opponent.

Before even reaching the Feng Country, he was sent back to his homeland by the combined efforts of the Sanshui Army and Huben Army. Originally, he had been greatly disappointed by Ren Fang, who still held high hopes for him, and what caused him the most worry happened. In the end, the Mo Country still stood at the side of the Feng Country.

The fact that Li Cheng's troops were unaccounted for, that their encirclement of Jinyang had failed, that Jin Zhuo's battle against his Gaochuan County was disadvantageous, that he had suffered a crushing defeat of four hundred thousand Huan Army and that his Mo Country had returned to the surface was aiding his Feng Country made Ren Fang want to retreat.

However, even if Ren Fang was the general of the army, he could still retreat in battle if he wanted to retreat. In order to withdraw his troops, he had to obtain the approval of the Duke of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, Ren Fang knew in his heart that the two empires thousands of miles away would not be able to understand the situation in the front, and the ministers would only look at the numbers of the two sides. In terms of numbers, they had the advantage.1

After Ren Fang thought about it, he wrote a private letter to the King Chuan. In the letter, he did not mention the matter of retreating, but rather, he explained in detail the difficulties their army was encountering.

His letter was sent to Shang Jing and not long after, it was received by Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan did not give him a clear direction in the letter, but gave him a huge amount of authority, which fully displayed the trust he had in Ren Fang. Xiao Xuan's letter stated that he would be able to adapt to the situation as he wished and would be on the outside. He would be able to decide whatever big or small matters that would happen, without having to worry about the opinions of the emperor and the imperial government.

Seeing Xiao Xuan's reply, Ren Fang's mood was both excited and agitated, but at the same time, completely at ease.

The day after receiving Xiao Xuan's reply, Ren Fang sent an envoy to the Jinyang to invite Tang Yin to come out of the city for a chat.

Ren Fang had already made up his mind. Even if he wanted to withdraw, he would have to use a negotiation method to obtain the biggest advantage from Feng Country.

When the time came for Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, a white flag was raised, and when they arrived at the walls of the city, their followers shouted loudly towards the city walls, first reporting their identities, and even proposing to meet the Feng King Tang Yin inside the city.

When the Generals And Soldiers of Feng Army above the city heard this, his nose almost went crooked from anger. Did you say that their city was open just like that? Is my king someone you can see just because you said so? The impetuous soldier raised his bow, about to shoot the envoy outside the city. Fortunately, the high-ranking officer arrived in time to stop the soldiers who were about to release their arrows, and ordered them to return to the city immediately to report the situation to the King.
