“Grand General, I received a message from General Juchuan in Nongdong. He led his troops to fight against the invading Chu people. They initially suffered a defeat and lost more than 10,000 soldiers on the battlefield.”

The Chu people took advantage of the situation and captured Heyang City, seizing the eastern territory of Nongdong. General Juchuan retreated to Jiangchuan City and is currently defending it resolutely.

The Chu people did not have many troops and did not continue to attack Jiangchuan City after a brief probing assault.

However, they have already turned their attention to other smaller cities in Nongdong. There are even Wuman and Nongdong rebels with them, helping to persuade other smaller tribes to surrender.

These treacherous traitors, who betrayed the Great God, have great prestige in these two regions, and many tribes have been deceived by them, choosing to submit to the Chu people.

On the battlefield, we have already seen many of these traitors, helping the Chu people to fight against us.

Although General Juchuan is trying to maintain control, as the number of traitors increases, the fewer nearby controlled towns and strongholds there are, it’s only a matter of time before Jiangchuan City falls.

As for General Anxin in Hui Chuan, the situation is much better.”

Upon arriving in Hui Chuan, General Anxin did not engage in direct combat with the Chu people. Instead, he led his troops to defend KeBu City, constructing a defense line along the Lu River.

The Chu people had no ships and didn’t seize any crossing points, making it impossible for them to break through General Anxin’s defenses.

The Chu people now occupy a small part of Hui Chuan’s territory east of the Lu River and are temporarily unable to cross.”

Upon hearing Li River’s inquiry, the person responsible for gathering intelligence on these matters stepped forward and spoke with a slightly unpleasant tone.

As the one responsible for collecting information from all directions, he was well-aware of the current dire situation faced by Da Changhe Country.

At this moment, bringing up these issues naturally put him in a bad mood.

“Damn it, those who betrayed the Great God have turned to the Chu people after siding with Li Xiong the outsider? These people are unworthy to be descendants of the Great God Chilih.”

Li River’s face turned colder upon hearing this news, and anger arose in his heart.

But now was not the time for anger, so after cursing, he suppressed his emotions and ordered, “Send a message to Juchuan, instructing him to retreat gradually with his troops and leave Jiangchuan City.

Nongdong is full of traitors, who have all betrayed the Great God Chilih. They cannot be trusted.

That place cannot be held any longer.

The soldiers Juchuan has left are Da Changhe Country’s last remaining vitality. They must not be lost in Jiangchuan City.

Instruct him to retreat to Jinning City and build a new defensive line based on the Lu River.”

As for General Anxin, he has done well. Tell him not to engage the Chu people directly, just hold onto the crossing points and block them to the east by the Lu River.”

The Lu River is the largest river in Da Changhe Country, running through the middle and dividing the east and west sides. Inside it, the territories of Wuman and Nongdong are entirely separated by the river, along with most of Hui Chuan’s territory.

The rapid currents of the Lu River create steep cliffs on both sides, and only a few crossing points allow passage for boats and people.

Jinning City is one of these crossing points.

This is the first major crossing point in the southern part of the Lu River in Da Changhe Country. As long as this location is sealed off and others are guarded, the natural barriers can prevent the Chu people’s assault from advancing.”

“Yes, as ordered.”

Upon hearing the command, the person beside him immediately went to write the military order.

After making these arrangements, Li River paced back and forth in the tent, his expression constantly changing. After a long time, he finally made a resolute decision and ordered, “Send the order to all the troops, come to the Central Army’s tent and discuss the withdrawal plan with me.”

After saying this, Li River slowly sat down on the ground, staring blankly as if he had used up all his energy.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Yes.

He was preparing to retreat.

Under Stone City, the troops had been delayed for a long time and were unable to make any progress.

Not only was Stone City unable to be captured, but even the camps they were defending were being continuously taken by the Chu people.

At this point, the eastern and southern camps outside Stone City had all been lost under the Chu people’s relentless and costly attacks.

Although the northern and western camps were still under Li River’s control.

Given the Chu people’s relentless attacks and the endless stream of foreign soldiers being conscripted from the rear, he knew that this battle could not be won.

If they continued to stay under Stone City, not only would they lose the remaining two camps, but the main force would also be whittled down.

All of that would not matter.

As long as they killed the enemy, the descendants of the Great God Chilih did not fear sacrifice.

The problem was that the enemy they were fighting against was not the Chu people, but the traitors who betrayed the Great God Chilih.

No matter how many traitors were killed, the Chu people would not care, and simply recruit more from the rear.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

In the end, only the descendants of the Great God Chilih would die, and the Chu people would suffer no losses at all.

Faced with this situation, Li River could not stand idly by.

The treachery of the Chu people was beyond imagination, and their strength was extremely frightening. For the sake of Da Changhe Country and the Great God Chilih, he could not let the last remaining force be meaninglessly consumed here.

So, he decided to retreat.

Retreating to the rear and relying on the Lu River to build a defensive line to resist the Chu people’s attacks became his only option.
