Chapter 426. Victory in the Ninth Game

Deng Yongle's words made Bai Yutian enter into contemplation. Gu Chengxuan is not a fool; everything he does must have a purpose.
If it weren't for Gu Chengxuan, why would the rebellion be so difficult to attack? How could the so-called Great Shun Kingdom win the support of the locals?
"Quick, summon Xu Hu and instruct him to investigate the positions of the rebel commanders, especially Li Cui and Deng Hong. I want their exact locations," said the emperor.
白羽天说的急切，寇望等人自然也是赶紧行动，不敢有半点拖沓。
From here back and forth, even if Long Wei personally delivered the message, it took more than two days.
During this period, Da Zhou and the rebel forces had five matches, with Da Zhou winning three and losing two.
However, including the first round that Bai Yu Tian let go, it can be said that the two sides are evenly matched.
In the first round, Zhong Zixing did not live up to Qi Geiya's expectations and lost to Wen Zheng. However, the players from Da Zhou afterwards were quite strong.
Especially Qi Geiya's top disciple, Qi Fulin, dominated the rebels' players and achieved victory within a short period of time.
Compared with the Weiqi competition, Bai Yutian is obviously more concerned about the garrison situation of the rebels.
After receiving the news, Xu Hu personally went to the front to investigate and found that there was only Deng Hong in the enemy camp, and there was no sign of Li Cui.
Even Li Cui, who led more than 20,000 Tianyi rebels, seems to have disappeared and retreated from the front line.
"Li Cui is one of the two fierce generals of the rebels, and he has elite soldiers. Gu Chengxuan definitely wouldn't not use him. It seems that he does have a plan!" Baiyu Tian's expression became serious and solemn.
Kou Wang and Deng Yongle exchanged glances and clasped their fists, saying, "Your Majesty, what should we do now? Should we detain the envoy of the rebels first?"
Hearing this, Bai Yutian glanced at Kou Wang angrily and said, "Kou Wang, can't you be less impulsive?"
"By detaining the envoy from the rebel forces, are you planning to force them into launching an attack?"
Kou Wang smirked, realizing his mistake.
He and Jing Ling were as close as brothers, and with Jing Ling having suffered such serious injury this time, he couldn't stop thinking about seeking revenge.
Therefore, Kou Wang's ideas are also somewhat radical.
After speaking, Bai Yutian also fell silent.
He was thinking about where Li Cui's army would go. There are seventy to eighty thousand troops stationed in the Weibei River Valley, and Li Cui alone would definitely not be able to take it down.
Moreover, Gu Chengxuan should not be willing to do such a thankless task.
Taking control of the Wei River Valley is of little use to them.
If they don't go to the south and east, then the only option is the north.
But the northern region is the Three Kingdoms of the North.
Suddenly, Bai Yutian's heart trembled and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Your Majesty!" Kou Wang and Deng Yongle looked at Bai Yutian with confusion.
White Yutian came back to his senses, his eyes still showing a trace of panic, "Quick, bring me paper and pen, I want to write a letter to General Kou Zai Xiong."
In the northern three kingdoms, they have always wanted to break through Eagle City and continue to capture it, but unfortunately, they have never had the opportunity.
Although the rebels failed to cooperate with the three northern countries last time, their connection has never been severed.
Now, the rebels have taken a different approach by proposing to compete with Da Zhou in the game of chess, even though they have the advantage. This could be a way to buy more time.
After finishing the letter, Bai Yu Tian called Dian Wei and asked him to personally deliver the letter.
"Remember, this letter must be delivered directly to General Kou Zai Xiong."
"No one is allowed to see the contents of the letter before General Kou Zai Xiong opens it."
Dianwei rarely sees such a serious expression on Bai Yu Tian's face, knowing that this matter is of great significance, so he is also very serious.
As a master strong in the Commanding Realm, Dianwei currently has few rivals within Da Zhou.
Bai Yutian asked Dian Wei to deliver the letter to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
The current Da Zhou Dynasty cannot withstand violent disturbances.
By the time Bai Yutian had sorted out everything, it was already evening.
The lights were bright in the city of Mingzhou, as the players from the Kingdom of Dazhou and the rebels faced off in their ninth match under the cover of darkness.
Prior to this, in the eight matches that took place, both Dazhou and the rebels each won four games.
Currently, it all depends on this last game.
Qi Geiyu did not play in the game. According to the original plan, he was supposed to be the tenth chess player to play.
The rebels only brought nine chess players, so Qigui also temporarily did not have a chance to play.
"I concede."
The player from the Great Zhou side stood up first and bowed slightly towards the player from the rebel side.
Although this person is from the rebel side, his bow is purely out of respect for the opponent's level of chess.
One of the rebel chess players took the black pieces and tried to place them between two fingers, but he couldn't put them down no matter how hard he tried.
After a while, he sighed helplessly and said, "Sir, your knowledge of chess is extensive, I admire you."
The judge saw that the victory or defeat had been determined and immediately announced the result, "Da Zhou Yezi, win."
