Invincible War God - C317 Disturbance on the Tian Yuan Continent (Part II)
Because the fight between the two armies was not just a fight between Heavenly Soul Master s, but one that relied solely on Heavenly Energy. Other than intelligence, military tactics and formations could be said to be an unorthodox technique for Qing Li. The help she could give Yue Yan was also limited, and other than a few chitchat, she did not know much else. It could also be said that the two nations were equals in strength.
Although Yue Yan didn’t know how to fight, he could tell that it was very dangerous just now. He never thought that the Star Blue Soldier would be so brave. Furthermore, she did not want to hurt the innocent either. He only wanted to deal with Xu Molai, but Xu Molai was clearly in front of his, and did not want to face his at all. Yue Yan really couldn’t bear it and immediately declared, “Retreat thirty kilometers, I don’t want to see anyone else die.”
“This!” Therefore, the soldiers all did not understand why Yue Yan had decided to do so. They all kneeled on the ground, “Your Majesty, our army’s new victory is just perfect. We can kill our way through in one go and capture the enemy vanguard before the enemy’s rear forces arrive.”
Yue Yan only shook his head, sighed, and said: “This is an order, I don’t want my soldiers, because I lost my life, after all, only half of the hatred between Xu Molai and I is personal.”
“Your Majesty, this is not a private matter, but a national matter. The Star Blue Empire has offended them, they are the masters of injustice! Please reconsider! ”
“I have made up my mind!” “All of you can leave now.”
Everyone knew that Yue Yan made this decision because he could not bear to see his soldiers being sacrificed. Although he knew that he would lose the chance after this retreat, he had no choice but to retreat and settle down at a distance of 30 miles.
This retreat of Yue Yan was too much for him. He immediately summoned the three armies and said, “Generals, listen up. Right now, the enemy has already heard of our heavenly army. They have already retreated and do not dare to resist. Therefore, we should attack with all our might.”
“General Xu, how can we cross the river without a boat?”
“Yeah, we can’t cross the river without learning to swim.”
“Don’t tell me that there is no one in our fifty thousand army who knows how to swim?” Facing such a good opportunity, when Xu Molai heard the soldiers say such words, he couldn’t help but be enraged.
“Yes, but we were forced to cross it earlier. Most of them were injured, and the rest were severely injured!” The main exercise book immediately added. Although he was just a temporary person, at the very least, to him, Xu Molai was just messing around, so he had already been fuming with rage in his heart. At this time, he naturally had something to say, but he actually knew in his heart that it was impossible for the entire army to not have people who had learnt how to swim, and it was just that based on his way of fighting, if he went, he would be throwing his life away, but it would be better to just act like a person who did not know how to swim.
“Then what do you think we should do?” Moreover, he had always thought that the people in this position should know some military strategies, and right now, he couldn’t care less about face, and immediately started asking for advice.
“We can either build bridges or take a detour.”
“How long does it take to build a boat and bridge, and how long does it take to take a detour?” Xu Molai immediately asked.
“General, if we were to build a ship for half a month, and take a detour for a month, it’s just that …”
“But what?” Xu Molai obviously thought of a way to take a detour, now that he had suffered a loss, he did not expect himself to underestimate Yue Yan, and actually know how to face the danger of a great river, it seems like her retreat was also a method to lure the enemy, if you want to use my army to cross the river to hide, and kill me, I am not that stupid, but Xu Molai had actually become smarter this time, I really don’t know what to think about.
However, the food has yet to arrive. Right now, our army only needs seven days to get the food first. Therefore, it was best to wait quietly and not move blindly.
“What is Marshal Xiao doing? He is actually so slow even when pressing down on food.” Hearing that, Xu Molai immediately became listless, but to dare to say such words to Xiao Qiang, Xu Molai could really be considered a character. What kind of identity did Xiao Qiang have, was it something that he could doubt just because he said so? However, he could only smile happily on the surface. What strength did Xiao Qiang have, what status did he have, how could he not take Xiao Qiang seriously?
“Xiao Qiang, you did that on purpose.” She did not want him to be the victor, so when the day came for him to return triumphantly, she had to clarify the matter. The army did not take the food first, but you, the democratic citizen, delayed bringing in the food. At the same time, he started to hate Lin Mufeng even more. It’s Lin Mufeng’s woman again, hmph!
But once he thought about how it would take three days for Xiao Qiang’s vanguard team to arrive, Xu Molai didn’t dare to act rashly.
The reason why Xiao Qiang came here slowly, was because she was afraid that the food would be taken away, and she was bold in sending out the troops this time around. Although the City of the Dead was far from the center of the State of the Moon, or according to the geographical location, it should be considered as the territory of the Blood Spirit Empire, and was considered as belonging to the Blood Spirit Empire, but she knew now, that the two sects had long been part of the Royal Palace Palace, but they had not agreed to it completely. After all, the majority of the people who were willing to let their families go were, but it was not guaranteed that all of them would be the members of the City of the Dead’s Xiu Family. When Yue Yan had just taken over the State of the Moon, she did not even care about the stomachs of the people, and did not even have the time to care about the matters of the Xiu Clan, so he gave him this chance. Of course she was worried about people robbing food along the way right now, so even though she wanted to avenge the Lin Family, he moved quickly.
Secondly, he did want Xu Molai to become cannon fodder on the battlefield. How could Xu Molai know all these? Because she is doing this for Yue Yan, and for Lin Mufeng, so this Xu Molai, is destined to die a horrible death. His thoughts are so resolute, Mu Feng, you Bad boy, come back quickly.
Three days later, Lin Mufeng still had not returned, or perhaps his situation was the same as before, and on the other side, Xiao Qiang’s group had already reached the Zhaolin River, while the food troops had arrived, which proved that Xiao Qiang’s army should have arrived as well. According to logic, if Yue Yan knew that it was Xiao Qiang’s army that had arrived, he would naturally give way, and the two families would fight together, but since someone did not allow them to come, then Yue Yan would naturally not know about it.
Of course, everything was according to his plan, he would not allow Yue Yan and Xiao Qiang to meet again. Furthermore, he would also let Yue Yan’s men injure Xiao Qiang’s troops, this would be a good show, and at the same time, he would also allow Xiu Yuan to take action.
Therefore, Cheng Yi made a plan at this time, and said: “Your Majesty, this subject has a plan that we can use to retreat from the enemy.”
“Take care of it, Zephyr.” After all, she was worried about how she would deal with the enemies, after all, retreating was not a solution, and she could only defend the river but not attack it, so when she thought about it, she finally felt a little relieved. After all, these soldiers had been ready to bleed since that day, and although she could not bear it, the enemy’s arrival meant that they had to face the enemy’s presence.
And right at this moment, Cheng Yi actually came here, this made Yue Yan feel like he had a backbone. should be said to be somewhat dependant on Cheng Yi right now, he and Qing Li could be said to be his right hand men, and the two of them could be said to be his hands. It was because she trusted Cheng Yi, that was why he dared to let Cheng Yi take care of national affairs during this expedition, and in Yue Yan’s opinion, Yan Sheng would be the future ruler, and it would be good for him to come into contact with some of the national affairs.
Yue Yan thought so, but Qing Li suddenly thought of a terrifying thing. She immediately said, “Zephyr Cheng, you left the city without permission, where should we take the little prince? If the people from the City of the Dead attack while the capital is empty, how can you take on this responsibility?”
Cheng Yi pretended to be shocked, he thumped his chest and said: “Master Qing Li, if not for your reminder, I would have forgotten about this big matter. I shall return to the capital as soon as I finish speaking. ”
Cheng Yi pretended so on the surface, and with what Qing Li had said, it seemed that although he could not push all of the responsibilities he had, he could still push it as far as he was concerned. Of course, he wanted to make Xiu Yuan’s men kidnap Yan Sheng, and then make Yue Yan face the enemy with his back, if he was in the imperial city, this matter would be very difficult, and he had to reject the enemy no matter what. Therefore, it was not a big mistake, but if he was in the capital, facing Xiu Yuan’s attack, it would be unjustifiable for him not to go all out to meet the enemy.
How would Yue Yan and Qing Li know that Cheng Yi had set such a vicious plan? Therefore, Yue Yan did not blame them, and Qing Li said, “This is the best, but I wonder what kind of plan Master Cheng has?”
“Use the time to lure the enemy in!”
“What do you mean by taking advantage of the time in the sky to lure the enemy in?”
Cheng Yi said, “Although this Zhaolin River looks like it is an unassailable and difficult to attack river, it has a natural flaw, which is that at this time of the year, there is a period of dried up water.”
After Yue Yan heard this, he immediately asked the people beside him who knew of this matter, and the results showed that it was indeed true. Therefore, if the other side were to retreat, as long as the other side was able to survive until the Withering Water Realm, they would be able to improve themselves. At that time, the situation would fall into a passive state, and it would be best to take the initiative and attack.
It was said that the extremes of things were always reversed. That was why the Zhaolin River appeared to be in great turmoil. In reality, it was an absolute sound, like a trapped beast. Its final roar was always terrifying.
Cheng Yi continued: “So this subject’s plan is to first store the water upstream, and then let the enemy mistakenly believe that the dried up water is earlier, and when the enemy crosses the river, we can use the water to attack. This subject has also heard that more than half of the troops in Xu Molai Tribe who have learned to swim under the wrong command have died in the last battle. ”
Cheng Yi’s plan was indeed good, but it was still a little too vicious. Whether it was the two nations fighting each other or not, as long as it was a war, there was no need to talk about justice and injustice, at most, it would end the battle, or an outstanding leader would reduce the number of casualties to the lowest, those were just myths, at least in the Tian Yuan Continent wouldn’t be able to find someone who could be called a god of war, or at least in this continent, they only needed the Heavenly Soul Master, they didn’t need the War God. Because for a long time, there had been no such matters in this world.
But Yue Yan had to do it now, so he could only do it this way. While they were on the way, Cheng Yi instructed them to send some soldiers who were immersed in studying water, in order to make the matter more realistic, to secretly cross the river at night and make a small scale assault. Furthermore, they did not ask for victory, to ensure the safety of the soldiers, or to destroy the hearts of the enemy and force them to cross the river as soon as possible.
