Chapter 564: Rebellion!_2
This group of powerful and long-lived old things just didn’t want to take the risk.
He didn’t want to take any risks!
If they could attack at the same time without holding back, Tu Zhengxiong believed that even if the Vermilion Bird Army had trump cards, they would not be able to stop them.
At the very least, he would end up with a crushing defeat!

However, they were not even willing to give it a thought, let alone attack with their full strength.
This made Tu Zhengxiong angry, but at the same time, he had the intention to retreat.
After the battle at Heaven’s Gate, he gradually recognized himself and felt that his strength should be ranked in the middle or lower ranks among the dukes.
But now, seeing that the twenty-eight dukes were all trash, he couldn’t help but feel disdain.
He, Tu Zhengxiong, at least dared to fight. What were those dukes hiding in the rear?
Could such a mentality win against the King of Jizhou?
..
Tu Zhengxiong’s desire to retreat grew stronger.
He exchanged glances with the dukes who were fighting alongside him.
Then, both sides understood each other and attacked at the same time, forcing Nangong Tianpeng to retreat.
Nangong Tian Peng didn’t chase after him.
The two of them were quite powerful. They were definitely top-notch powerhouses among the Grandmasters. They were already comparable to Half-step Martial Gods!
Although Nangong Tian Peng was strong, it would take some time to kill them.
At this moment, the million-strong army had already reacted and sent a large number of people back to help.
This increased the pressure on the Vermillion Bird Army.
But this way, the rear troops would be much more comfortable.
After stabilizing their position, they began to gradually eliminate the 10,000 berserk soldiers, once again gaining the upper hand!
….
This battle lasted for more than half a day.
Kill until the sun and moon lose their light, and the sky and earth darken!
In the end, the rear army joined forces with the Vermillion Bird Army, and the alliance also joined forces with the vassals in the rear.
Both sides suffered heavy casualties. After pulling out of formation, they retreated 20 miles, leaving behind a pile of corpses.
In this battle, the 300,000 rear troops had suffered over 60,000 casualties, while the Vermilion Bird Army had suffered 2,000 casualties.
On the side of the alliance, the million strong army had lost over 300,000 people, including the 10,000 berserk soldiers.
In addition, Nangong Tian Peng had also killed a dukedom!
Although they didn’t win this battle, the Jizhou Army had gained the upper hand.
The morale of the soldiers in Jizhou was still the same. They wanted to go to the battlefield immediately to take revenge for their comrades!
However, the Alliance of Hope couldn’t do that.
Before the battle, the situation was so chaotic that they even mobilized a million people to take over the city and march in.
However, he had knocked into an iron plate!
Although he didn’t lose, he still couldn’t win even after he had been crippled. It was equivalent to losing.
After the battle, 28 routes…No, the twenty-seven dukes returned to their respective camps and began to rest for a short while.
..
In the middle of the night, an incomparably fat black shadow flashed quickly and arrived at another vassal army tent.
“Old Tu? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?”
In the tent, a middle-aged man with leopard eyes and lion nose was a little surprised.
This person was the dukedom who had fought alongside Tu Zhengxiong during the day. His name was Huo Junshan.
There was a map of Jizhou in front of him, and there was still a hint of worry on his face.
Tu Zhengxiong placed a large jar of wine on the table and said in a deep voice,”
“I couldn’t sleep, so I wanted to talk to you.”
“What’s the matter?”
Huo Junshan waved his hand and dismissed the guards who heard the commotion.
Tu Zhengxiong opened the lid of the jar and poured a big bowl for Huo Junshan, then he took a big gulp.
“Hu! These few months have been the most unpleasant days for me!”
“Old Huo, what do you think our chances are?”
Tu Zhengxiong looked at Huo Junshan with a burning gaze.
The two of them had a good relationship. Otherwise, they would not have fought side by side today.
That was why Tu Zhengxiong asked such a question.
Huo Junshan fell silent.
Tu Zhengxiong continued,
“I finally understand. What bullshit alliance is a pile of loose sand!”
“They look down on me and think that I’m a bandit.”
“Hehe, what a joke! How good can they be?”
“You saw it today, right? We are risking our lives at the front, while they are watching the show from behind, and they even put on a superior expression.”
“Do you think I can take this?”
Tu Zhengxiong was getting angrier as he spoke. He even crushed a large piece of the wine jar in his hand.
Taking advantage of the pause, he took another big gulp of wine and forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart before continuing,
“Let’s not talk about this.”
“The four great legions only sent out one Vermillion Bird Army, and it only had thirty thousand men, yet it was beaten to such a state!”
“You don’t know this, but I gave up 10,000 of my elite subordinates to work for Xu Ye.”
“You still want Ji? I think if we fight a few more times, we’ll have to run for our lives!”
“After today’s battle, the hearts of the people will definitely be scattered, and the morale will continue to fall.”
“That Zhang…Zhang…”
Tu Zhengxiong raised his wine jar, unable to recall the name of the deceased duke.
“Zhang Bohan.”
Huo Junshan, who had been silent, added.
“Yes, Zhang Bohan.”
Tu Zhengxiong nodded and continued,
“When he was at a disadvantage, no one went to save him. They watched helplessly as he was killed by the Vermillion Bird Army general.”
“Tell me, if we encounter a tough battle later, who will dare to risk their lives?”
Huo Junshan took a deep breath and asked Tu Zhengxiong with a serious expression,”
“What do you mean by telling me this?”
Tu Zhengxiong slammed his fat palm on the table and said fiercely,”
“Damn it!”
“Rebel?”
Huo Junshan was surprised.
