Chapter 157 Ambush
He stared at the golden eagle falling not far away, then turned to look at Chu Zhiyuan.

He never imagined that there was such a miraculous skill in the world, that a hidden weapon could be shot such a long distance and still have such power at such a distance.

The golden eagle is no ordinary eagle. It is incredibly fast and arrows cannot break its golden feathers.

But now it can't block hidden weapons from such a long distance.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was impossible.

Incredible.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at the golden eagle: "I'm afraid their target this time is you, General Li!"

Zou Fang stepped forward to take back the knife, wiped it carefully and returned it to Chu Zhiyuan.

Li Haoyuan sighed: "My hatred for the Great Mongolia is as deep as the sea, how could they let me go!"

"Did you expect that they would kill you along the way?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Li Haoyuan shook his head: "I originally thought that they would kill me in prison after I was convicted, without anyone knowing."

"Can they kill people in our Yujing prison?"

"People die in Yujing's prison every day."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and asked, "Damong has such a long reach in our Yujing?"

Li Haoyuan said: "Sir, the tentacles of the Great Meng in our Yujing are longer than you think, you have to be careful."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Besides the prison, what else is there?"

Li Haoyuan said in a deep voice: "There must be a secret agent of the Great Mongolia in the prison, and there are probably secret agents in the various government offices as well."

Chu Zhiyuan was half-believing and half-doubting.

Li Haoyuan said: "As far as I know, Da Meng attaches the most importance to information gathering and secret spies. They often have long-term plans of 20 to 30 years in raising secret spies, rather than seeking quick results, so it is difficult to guard against them."

Chu Zhiyuan fell silent.

If this is the case, it would be very troublesome indeed.

Twenty or thirty years, or even starting from childhood, as children grow up, there are almost no flaws.

If someone comes to a small mountain village when he is young, and comes out when he grows up, moves into the city or joins some sect, it is almost impossible to figure out whether he is a Mongolian or not.

What's more, there are some covert actors who are impossible to guard against.

When he thought of this, he felt inexplicably heavy.

Li Haoyuan was quite surprised to see that he stopped talking.

Chu Zhiyuan did not continue to ask, but instead asked: "The Supervisory Department knows this, right?"

"Of course they know." Li Haoyuan said, "But what can they do even if they know? There is nothing they can do."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "We can only give him back in his own way."

Li Haoyuan sighed: "Our Dajing officials are eager to get promoted and seek quick success, so they don't want to do this kind of thing."

The previous generation plants trees, and the next generation enjoys the shade, and makes clothes for others.

This kind of thing is difficult to do in Dajing. No one would be so stupid as to consider themselves more rather than the court and other people.

"Most officials in the Great Mongolia are hereditary." Chu Zhiyuan said: "Is this the root cause?"

Li Haoyuan clapped his hands and laughed, "Your Highness is very insightful!"

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand: "This difference leads to different styles of doing things. Everything has its pros and cons. The advantage of their hereditary and lifelong official positions is that they can act in the long term and slowly implement major events. The disadvantage is that they are prone to corruption."

He didn't think it was much knowledge.

In previous lives, it was just basic common sense.

However, he did not know that many of the rules he learned in his previous life were often new and unprecedented in this world, which was considered as knowledge.

"Your Excellency's words are very thorough. The root of the problem is there, so there is nothing to say. The Supervisory Department cannot change the general situation."

"No one can stop this trend." Chu Zhiyuan sighed, and suddenly said, "Take a break and set up camp!"

Li Haoyuan was stunned.

Chu Zhiyuan gave the order, and the masters in the palace naturally followed it without any disobedience. The two eunuchs did not say a word and immediately got busy.

Li Haoyuan looked at Chu Zhiyuan in confusion.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "General Li, guess what we are going to do."

Li Haoyuan frowned and said, "Now that we have captured the Golden Eagle, the Mongolian cavalry that came to rob us should not be able to find us. Why don't we leave faster?"

He then said: "They may not be able to catch up with us, but we stopped..."

he mused.

Chu Zhiyuan watched with a smile.

After a moment, Li Haoyuan said slowly: "Sir, this is not a plan, right?"

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Which plan?" "...Could it be that the lord is using us as bait?"

"As expected of General Li!" Chu Zhiyuan clapped his hands in praise.

Li Haoyuan reacted so quickly.

It seems that Li Haoyuan's appointment as general was not a fluke, but a real talent. It is no fluke that he has been able to stand in the northern border for decades.

Unfortunately, they suffered a crushing defeat and lost Fuyuan Town.

This further demonstrates the power of Dameng.

Li Haoyuan looked in the direction of Gaoling Town, but did not see any troops coming.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Not that direction."

Li Haoyuan was startled and turned to look to the south: "Ambush ahead?"

"Otherwise, how can we hide it from the Cloud-Stepping Cavalry?" Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Li Haoyuan sighed: "Is this the method used by Prince Ying?"

“I guess so.” Chu Zhiyuan said.

This was actually his parting proposal last night. Chu Mingrui readily agreed and fully cooperated, sending the more than 200 personal soldiers to ambush fifteen miles to the south under the cover of night.

Once Chu Zhiyuan gives the signal, these guards will rush out.

These guards have all been trained by Chu Zhiyuan, and the lightning spear formation has been mastered, so they just need to continue to familiarize themselves with it in the future.

As you become more familiar with it, its power will grow stronger.

The stronger the power, the harder they will practice, and the harder they practice, the stronger the power will be, forming a positive cycle.

He could imagine that the Thunder Spear Formation would quickly become famous, and the might of the Thunder Spear Cavalry would soon be known throughout the world.

Because of this relationship, even though Chu Zhiyuan is not the head coach and does not have the tiger talisman, he can still command these people and form a tacit cooperation.

……

The people set up camp and even built a large camp.

Chu Zhiyuan asked the palace guards to practice the Four Symbols Soul-Slaying Formation in the cleared space.

Liang Guanjie and his five men quickly returned and joined the formation.

Chu Zhiyuan spoke quickly, instructing them one by one.

These palace guards are all extremely smart, otherwise they would not have the opportunity to enter the palace as guards.

Under Chu Zhiyuan's guidance, they had already gotten started last night.

Li Haoyuan was stunned again.

He didn't expect Chu Zhiyuan to be so proficient in battle tactics, have such a keen eye, and such amazing predictions.

Often they correct their mistakes in advance when they haven't made any, thus avoiding mistakes and allowing the formation to take shape quickly.

Normally, it would take several years for a new formation to take shape, but under his guidance it only took half an hour.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly turned his head to look towards the northeast and said calmly, "Here they come!"

He looked towards the south again and nodded with satisfaction.

Li Haoyuan also had eyesight far beyond that of ordinary people. He had already seen a group of small black dots appearing in the south. They were the Wind-Chasing Cavalry, the personal guards of King Chu Mingrui of England.

Chu Zhiyuan said loudly: "Cheer up, set up the formation, and prepare for the battle!... A rare opportunity to make a contribution is right in front of you, let's see if you can seize it!"

Everyone was a little nervous, like students who were about to take an exam without finishing their review.

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "Why are you panicking? Set up your formation and follow me to charge! The Cloud-Stepping Cavalry is nothing more than this!"

He secretly sighed: The martial arts masters are indeed a motley crowd. Even the disciplined palace guards are still far inferior to the performance of Chu Mingrui's personal soldiers.

The ground shook slightly, and the Stepping Cloud Cavalry a thousand meters away began to slowly increase their speed, but not too much, demonstrating their full experience.

Chu Zhiyuan commanded the guards to help them set up the formation.

Li Haoyuan's personal soldiers were not allowed to participate.

These personal soldiers drew their swords coldly, protected Li Haoyuan inside, formed a formation, and pointed at the approaching Treading Cloud Iron Cavalry with calm expressions.

"Charge, follow me!" Chu Zhiyuan shouted, "No matter what time it is, you must maintain the formation. The power of the formation will protect you. Don't pay attention to those who are rushing towards you!"

His voice was gentle and calm, soothing their excited and nervous hearts. They soon calmed down and began to focus on their positions.

Chu Zhiyuan rode slowly in front, speeding up while directing the guards one by one, pointing out at any time which guard had made mistakes and what needed attention.

As the formation began to operate, power from the void began to descend.

With his super senses, Chu Zhiyuan saw a surging force descending from the void, and he nodded with satisfaction.

　The next update will be in 15 minutes.
