Chapter 49

Zhang Longyun traveled day and night and arrived at Fenghu city one day and one night.

During this day and night, 60000 soldiers of the Ares army got good food and rest, and their spirits were much better. However, many soldiers did not get out of the shadow of killing horses until Zhang Longyun appeared.

"Ha ha, Zhou Han, you really scared me. I thought you really..." Before Zhang Longyun arrived, his voice arrived.

"See commander!" Zhou Han and others saw Zhang Longyun coming and quickly paid homage.

"No, no more." Zhang Longyun let everyone up, the mood is particularly high.

"Well, Zhou Han, why are your people not in high spirits? What's the matter? You won the battle?" Looking at Zhou Han's side, someone's expression is not right. Although he tries his best to cover up, how can he hide Zhang Longyun's eyes.

"Commander, this is the case. Our army was trapped in the ruins of boulders. Food and drinking water were cut off. I ordered the killing of war horses to solve the dilemma, so..." Zhou Han quickly stood out, "the end will violate military discipline, please commander in chief punishment!"

"Kill the horse?" Zhang Longyun was stunned. This was a big taboo in the army. After all, the Dayun dynasty did not have the vast grassland of Xiqi Dynasty, and the supply of horses was very limited.

"Commander, it's none of our commander's business. I'm..." Cao Xiqi wants to stand up for Zhou Han's back pot and is pulled by Zhou Han.

"How many killed?" Zhang Longyun's expression is somewhat complicated. Although it is said that Zhou Hanli has made great achievements in the war, his achievements are meritorious and his mistakes are not the same.

"17000." Zhou Han said.

"17000?" Zhang Longyun frowned. The number is a little big.

"Commander in chief, I hope you will handle it impartially and not bend the law for selfish ends." Zhou Han knows Zhang Longyun's dilemma, and his heart has prepared for the worst.

The general headquarters of the Universiade has clearly defined rewards and punishments. I'm afraid that if I make such a mistake, I'm afraid that the post of commander of the Ares army can't be preserved. However, the military headquarters still rewards things according to their own combat merits. This reward should be able to make their own strength to a higher level and reach the mid-term of the day after tomorrow.

If you have a chance to lead the army, stay in the army. If there was no chance, Zhou Han had to leave the army ahead of time and turn to the Universiade military alliance.

"Zhou Han, it's hard for you to open like this. Thank you for not embarrassing me!" Zhang Longyun immediately announced that "the post of commander of the war god army of Zhou Han shall be removed immediately, and the post of commander of the war god Army shall be represented by deputy commander Cao Xiqi."

"Commander in chief, the Ares army can't live without Zhou Han?" Cao Xiqi quickly said that other people also want to plead.

Zhang Longyun suppressed the crowd and said, "the military law is merciless. Since you have made mistakes, you must be punished. Generals and soldiers are treated equally."

"Zhou Han, come with me." Zhang Longyun called Zhou Han to a separate room.

"Zhou Han, do you have any idea now?" Zhang Longyun looks at Zhou Han and wants to see the young man's reaction after he is dismissed.

"No idea. I'm just wondering when the military reward will be sent to me." Zhou Han pretended to change the topic easily.

"This time you have made such a contribution to the Ares army. The reward from the military department is already on its way. Maybe it will arrive tonight or tomorrow." Zhang Longyun pulled the topic to the positive again, "Zhou Han, I want to listen to your inner thoughts."

"It's very simple. If I don't have the chance to lead again, I'll have to retire." Zhou Han said bluntly.

"No, you can't be discharged now." Zhang Longyun shook his head.

"Why, commander, don't you want to pervert the military law?" Zhou Han looks at Zhang Longyun suspiciously, and the other party seems to want to give him a chance.

"Because the Universiade army still needs you, so I can't let you go." Zhang Longyun said.

"The commander means that you have temporarily removed me from my post and will resume it after a while, won't you?"

"Almost." Zhang Longyun said, "but you can't be the commander of the Ares army. After all, you ordered to kill so many horses, even for the lives of the soldiers, but your orders have left a bad shadow in the Ares."

"You commander, you want to..."

"Zhou Han, I can tell you directly now that although the Xiqi army has been severely damaged and they have lost a large area of territory, they have not been defeated at all. On the contrary, their reinforcements have come all the way around the clock. As soon as reinforcements arrive, they will turn the situation around again. This time, they are bound to be much fiercer than last time, so I need you to help me plan the situation. " Zhang Longyun looks dignified and serious.

"They still have reinforcements. Where did they come from? I heard that the royal family of Xiqi even sent out the royal forest army?" Zhou Han asked in surprise.

"The great Chu Dynasty, a friend of Xiqi." Zhang Longyun said.

"The great Chu dynasty?" As the son of Tiger wing Hou, Zhou Han knows something about the international situation.

Those who covet the Western Dynasty and the Middle Kingdom have been competing with each other. The great Chu Dynasty coveted Dali Dynasty.The Xiqi Dynasty and the great Chu Dynasty formed an alliance. They wanted to eat the Dali Dynasty first and then the Dayun Dynasty. At that time, forced by the situation, the Dayun Dynasty and the Dali Dynasty also allied, smashing the conspiracy between the king of Xiqi and the Dachu Dynasty. Therefore, the two dynasties were changed into one-on-one, slowly fighting a war of attrition, trying to swallow the target slowly with strong national strength.

"Yes, it has not been a day or two for the Xiqi Dynasty and the great Chu Dynasty to collude with each other. Now that the Xiqi army is in trouble, the great Chu Dynasty has sent troops to support it."

"How many troops did the great Chu Dynasty support?" Zhou Han had some headache. The national strength of the great Chu Dynasty was still above the Xiqi Dynasty. Moreover, the army of the great Chu Dynasty once fought under the capital of the Dali Dynasty, and the battle was very fierce.

"I don't know the exact amount, but it won't be less than 500000." Zhang Longyun sighed.

"In this way, we will lose all our advantages in destroying the five groups of Xiqi army before that?"

"I'm afraid that's why I need you to stay."

"I'm dismissed by you now. I can't help you right away..." Zhou Han's words were interrupted by Zhang Longyun and said, "of course, I can't put you at the commanding position right now. Besides, now that the reinforcements of the great Chu Dynasty have not arrived, our army can still withstand the situation. Therefore, you should have a good rest in the rear, and the rewards given by the military headquarters will be absorbed slowly, which will be regarded as cultivation. I just hope that you can find a way to help our army resist the Xiqi and Dachu allied forces while practicing. "

"Commander, you still trust me so much, do you really believe that I have a way?" Zhou Han was moved and trusted.

"In my eyes, if the Universiade army wants to win this war completely, you are the best general!" Zhang Longyun made no secret of his inner thoughts.

"Commander, don't worry, just trust me. I will not let you down." Zhou Han nodded heavily.

"Very well, this is the son of Tiger wing Hou!" Zhang Longyun looked at Zhou Han with approval and reminded him, "Zhou Han, you don't have much time. Once the United forces of Xiqi and Dachu are combined, if our army can't block their edge, I'm afraid their allied forces will hit our Universiade capital this time."

"Well, I know." Zhou Han nods again, Zhang Longyun's meaning is very clear, Zhou Han still has a chance to lead the army, so he naturally chooses to stay. Moreover, this time is likely to be the final decisive battle between the Universiade army and the Xiqi army. If we win this battle, the reward of the military headquarters will naturally enable our strength to jump into the congenital realm.

When the strength reaches the innate state, when we enter the Universiade Martial Arts League, the status will be much higher.

"Last but not least, how did you and your 60000 soldiers of the Ares army survive? The scene of the collapse of the ancient Yuanfeng and the flying boulders..." Zhang Longyun's words did not finish, was interrupted by Zhou Han, "this is a collective sacrifice that my father once passed on to me. I can't tell you exactly what's going on for a while."

The meaning of Zhou Han's active interruption is obvious, and he doesn't want to let Zhang Longyun continue to ask, because this is a lie after all.

"Well, in that case, I won't ask. You're all safe anyway." Time is urgent, Zhang Longyun gave up careful inquiry, collective sacrifice, the name sounds very complicated.

"Good!"

Zhang Longyun and Zhou Han met in a hurry and left. No one knows what Zhang Longyun and Zhou Han specifically talked about. But everyone knows that although Zhou Han was removed from the post of commander of the Ares army, Zhou Han will be reappointed soon.

Since Zhou Han has been dismissed, he is not an official. Although he has promised Zhang Longyun to help him find a way to fend off the Xiqi and Dachu allied forces, the United forces have not yet come, so Zhou Han needs to relax.

Borrowing a fast horse, Zhou Han returned to Tianyuan city.

Although Zhou Han is no longer the commander of the Ares army, the myth created by his 60000 cavalry has become a legend in the army. As soon as his figure appeared in Tianyuan City, he was immediately recognized by the garrison.

"Hello, commander!" The garrison at the gate of the city gave Zhou Hanjing the courtesy that commander of war God should get.

"Thank you, brothers." Zhou Han called in the city and came to the original command post.

Zhou Han came to the room where Princess Jian'an stayed and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

At this time, a soldier saw Zhou Han and came to him: "commander, do you want to find your orderly who lived in it before?"

"Yes." Zhou Han nodded directly.

"She's gone." Said the soldier.

"Gone. When did you leave?" Zhou Han asked in a hurry. Even if the royal family didn't want to take Princess Jian'an back on purpose, it was not easy for her as a weak woman to wander outside.

"It is the day when you led the 60000 soldiers of the Ares army and the five army groups of Xiqi to perish." The soldier said.

"Did she leave any letters or words?" Zhou Han anxiously said that Princess Jian'an must have thought she was dead, so she chose to leave. She is a weak woman. Where can she go?

"No, she didn't leave anything. She left quietly, and we found out later." Said the soldier."Well, I see. You go."

"Yes The soldiers left.

Zhou Han pushed the door in. The furnishings inside were neat, the tables were clean, and the bedding was very neat. It's hard for ordinary people to imagine that a princess growing up in the palace could make the room so orderly.

Zhou Han sat down, and the scene of contact with Princess Jian'an appeared in his mind.
