Chapter 958: Sieging the city-I
Translator: 549690339
When the hatred gradually subsided, Xu Qi ‘an reexamined the battle. He suddenly felt a chill down his spine and a chill in his heart.
With his logical reasoning ability, he had already reviewed the battle in his mind after listening to Zhang Kaitai’s description.
The core of this battle was the Sorcerer God.
With the Sorcerer God as the core, the game and war unfolded.
Helping the demon barbarians was only a superficial reason. Wei Yuan’s true goal was to deal with the witch God (the reason was unknown), while the previous emperor and the witch God sect wanted to protect the witch God.
The witchcraft cult’s plan was:
The previous emperor was holding them back. When the Army entered the enemy’s territory, he cut off their provisions and supplies, whittling down Wei Yuan’s strength and pushing the DA Feng soldiers into the abyss of eternal damnation.
After that, two third stage spiritual wisdom Masters, one first stage great shaman, and one second stage divine tribulation were the final preparations. As long as Wei Yuan’s forces were weakened to a certain extent, they would definitely attack.
Wei Yuan’s response was to massacre the entire city, using war to sustain war. Without any food and military supplies, he pushed all the way to the fire country’s hinterlands and attacked the capital.
Then, he secretly took the water route to circle around the enemy’s back.
From this, it could be seen that Wei Yuan had expected the Imperial court to be a burden. Therefore, he was prepared to fight a quick battle from the beginning. He didn’t leave any way out and didn’t need any supplies. He would plunder on the spot and use the battle to sustain himself. Then, he would push directly to the witch God sect’s base camp.
In the final battle, Wei Yuan would have to face four super experts. If he was only a rank two martial artist, he would not have been able to defeat the four of them, let alone fight with the Sorcerer God.
Wei Yuan had considered this as well. He had something to rely on, and that was the Confucian Saint.
“Everyone thought that this battle was to reinforce the demon barbarians and maintain the balance. Who would have thought that there was a deeper purpose behind it … The witchcraft cult played along. Lord Wei also played along and summoned the Confucius Saint to wipe out the witchcraft cult’s headquarters. The game and calculation involved in this really makes one’s scalp numb .
Xu Qi ‘an muttered to himself.
There were still a few questions that he had yet to answer. For example, if Duke Wei was a Dao integration stage martial artist, a terrifying inhuman stage expert, why did he conceal his strength and bide his time for so many years, announcing to the public that he had no cultivation and was an ordinary person?
Also, why did the previous emperor join forces with the witchcraft sect to kill Wei Yuan? although he was only a second -rank official, it was indeed frightening. But asking a Tiger for its skin would bring him benefits?
With the relationship between Wei Yuan and the Empress, as long as the previous emperor had this against him, he would have a bargaining chip. Moreover, there was a prison officer looking down from above, so it was not difficult to maintain the overall stability.
On the contrary, sending the soldiers and generals of their own country to the enemy’s territory would cause greater trouble.
Xu Qi ‘an thought of a familiar saying:Why did His Majesty rebel?
This was what he was puzzled about at the moment.
Lastly, why did Wei Yuan attack the witchcraft cult’s headquarters with the intention of dying in battle?
It turns out that I don’t even have the ability to collect his corpse … Xu Qi ‘an’s heart ached.
As his thoughts churned, he took a deep breath. “Lord Wei has been keeping a low profile?”
Zhang Kaitai nodded and looked at the entrance of the tent. He said slowly, ”
“After the Battle of Shanhai Pass, the Lord of Wei had a secret conversation with His Majesty and then destroyed his cultivation. We couldn’t understand it then, and we still can’t understand it now. I didn’t expect that Duke Wei had secretly re-cultivated his martial arts. Even though he died in battle, I’m still very pleased.
as long as the jar breaks on the well, the general will inevitably die on the battlefield. To die on the battlefield as a peerless master, I have no regrets to
Duke Wei.
apart from Yang Yan and Jiang Luzhong, you’re the only one who survived, ” Xu Qi ‘an asked. what are your plans for the future? ”
“I’ve been a night watchman, and I’ll be a night watchman for life.” Zhang Kaitai tilted his head and looked at him. “And you?”
He was met with silence.
At this moment, a Deputy general rushed over with a panicked expression and shouted, ” Lord Commander, the scouts have reported that the fire Country and the Kang country have gathered eighty thousand men and are making their way towards jadesun pass. In an hour at most, they will arrive at the gates of the city.
Zhang Kaitai’s face changed. who is the leader? ”
“Fiery King, nurheka,” the Deputy general said in a deep voice.
Zhang Kaitai was stunned and fell into silence. He ordered, ‘
“Gather all the generals above the rank of. thousand-man commander for. meeting. Order all the soldiers to go up the city wall and order the militia to move the defensive equipment and armaments to the warehouse …”
He gave out orders one after another in a familiar and unhurried manner, but his grim expression showed that Jin Luo’s heart was heavy.
After a while, more than a dozen generals in armor and carrying sabers at their waists stepped into the tent. They cupped their hands at Xu Qi ‘an and Zhang Kaitai and took their seats.
They probably knew that the armies of Yan and Kang were about to arrive, so the generals all looked serious and didn’t exchange too many pleasantries with Xu Qi ‘an.
Zhang Kaitai looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, ‘”‘The Yan and Kang kingdoms are here to fight back. It seems like the witchcraft cult will fight us to the death.”
All the generals present were experienced and had a keen sense of war. After retreating back to jadesun pass, they had analyzed the situation.
The witchcraft cult had suffered heavy losses in this battle. They had broken through seven cities in a row. There were too many things to deal with. Under such circumstances, the right thing to do was to deploy troops to repair the broken cities and send Scouts to keep an eye on the border.
It was impossible to start a war in the short term. On the contrary, it meant that the witchcraft cult would fight Da Feng to the death.
“We don’t have enough troops …”
“There wasn’t enough food either. After Chen Ying killed those dog officials of the Ministry of Revenue, she found out that the food hadn’t been transported here at all. Those dog officials of the Ministry of Revenue deliberately hid it from us..”
