Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1688: Chapter 534: Battle, Heaven’s Thunder Meets Earthly Fire_3

But this thought was quickly dismissed. This plan could easily be seen through, and the biggest premise was ensuring the smooth capture of Wuchuan City.

There’s still the issue of whether it can be captured. If it’s taken down, but then detected by Cai Qiu’s people, causing public outrage, then Qin Feng’s fifty thousand troops might end up with a death feud against Great Xia.

No need!

“With big brother personally overseeing, Aikou City should be in a stable condition…”

……

The speculation inside Xia Chuan’s tent was quite reasonable.

Qin Feng’s fifty thousand-strong army advanced eastward ahead of time. Upon learning this, Luo Yuan immediately followed. With the Xia Army’s disciplined training, if not catching up, at least staying not too far behind was achievable.

As for Li Yangtian and Yuan Cheng’s forces, they could definitely reach Aikou before Qin Feng; the reason being the distance of Dragon Valley and Yangqu to Aikou is much closer than East Valley City.

Xianyang-level sky-controlling communication took virtually no time; even accounting for message reporting back and forth, it’s predictable that the Xia Army’s two groups supporting Aikou would be faster than Qin Feng’s fifty thousand troops.

This is why Xia Chuan and others concluded that Aikou City would be safe.

However, this conclusion depended mainly on Qin Feng’s fifty thousand troops arriving at Aikou after Yuan Cheng and Li Yangtian’s forces.

Coincidentally, this foundation has encountered a problem!

“Kill!”

“Kill…”

“Annihilate the Xia Army, reinforce Wuchuan.”

“With the Feudal Town’s help, what are we afraid of?”

“Wuchuan brothers have arrived, brothers, follow me to charge out of the city!”

“Drive away the Xia Dogs!”

“Dreaming to destroy Jin Mountain, wishful thinking!”

“Dragon Valley, Beishuo, Yangqu Three Towns are annihilated; if we don’t resist now, we will end up serving as dogs for the Xia people, brothers, if not now, then when?”

“Kill!”

……

……

The gates of Aikou City had long been open, and the Jin Mountain soldiers surged out, charging straight towards the Xia Army camp outside the city. Countless arrows rained down, nearly overwhelming the Great Xia Military Tent.

What’s critical is that on the west side of the Great Xia Military Tent, another army is attacking furiously, similarly overwhelming the Xia Army camp with countless arrows.

The armies from both the east and west sides surrounded Yuwen Dao’s Right Route Army, effectively encasing them in an unbreakable encirclement.

“East Valley is over 110 kilometers away from Aikou City in a straight line; originally, normal marching would take at least half a day. We used Divine Wind augmentation, taking less than two hours. Xia Hong could never have imagined that Wuchuan’s fifty thousand troops would be here, Great Xia is bound for a big fall.”

“A Town-level Camp dares to compete with my Cai Qiu; Landgrave’s willingness to yield Wuchuan is already face-saving for Great Xia, but Xia Hong’s ambition knows no bounds, daring to dream of dominating the Southern Slope, a mere dream!”

“Shangguan Yang has already led troops to attack, no matter how strong the twelve Beast Emperor-level Puppets are, they can’t withstand the charge of eleven thousand troops. First, annihilate Great Xia’s Right Route Army; once my Cai Qiu’s army moves south, Great Xia will have to regurgitate all the Three Towns it swallowed previously.”

“Don’t be complacent, why is the Xia Army still silent?”

“We arrived too fast, Xia Hong can’t recover now, why care about any action? These forty thousand Xia troops are already fish in a barrel!”

……

At the very front of the Wuchuan army formation on the west side, Cai Qiuhong hovered in the air with a group of Xianyang-level individuals, looking down at the mass below, with excitement in their eyes as the troops were less than a kilometer away from the Great Xia Military Tent.

However, a few people wore a look of doubt on their faces.

Among them was Qin Feng.

At this moment, Qin Feng was completely speechless. Apart from issuing an order to the troops just after arriving two kilometers outside the Xia Army’s west side, as requested by Cai Qiuhong, he had been mostly sidelined.

But because he wasn’t involved in command, he was able to calmly think.

Cai Qiu’s Divine Wind method was indeed impressive, both concealing the army’s tracks in the snowfield and greatly improving marching speed, enabling them to reach Aikou from East Valley City in over an hour.

But such a method isn’t without flaws.

Great Xia has been stationed at Aikou City for many days; surely, there are numerous scouts around. Even though Cai Qiuhong ordered the Xianyang individuals to scatter and capture some Xia Army scouts just before the main force arrived, it’s unlikely to have captured every single one, right?

Even if all scouts were truly caught, the snow fog zone created by Divine Wind is too close, Great Xia hasn’t detected anything, which is too unbelievable.

Forget Xia Hong; anyone with a bit of military experience would suspect a problem if suddenly seeing such a large snow fog zone approaching.

Moreover, as of now, Jin Mountain’s army inside Aikou City has charged out, his subordinate troops are less than a kilometer away, and the iron arrows fired by the forefront soldiers have already entered the Great Xia Military Tent area.

Why is the Xia Army remaining silent?

Qin Feng had his brow tightly knitted; if not for his perception covering two kilometers, clearly sensing a large number of soldiers inside the Great Xia Military Tent, he would even doubt if Xia Hong had received early intel and fled with his troops.

Facing the assault from both east and west armies, the Great Xia Military Tent remained in an eerie silence, while Cai Qiuhong and others high above showed no intention of halting the troops, intently watching below, waiting for the troops to formally enter the Xia Army camp area.

“You have a road to heaven yet refuse to take it, rushing into hell without a door. Qin Feng, I initially considered you quite a character, but now it seems you’re nothing but a complete fool. You’re willing to risk the lives of fifty thousand soldiers for Cai Qiu’s profitless venture!”
