#768 - Overt and Conspiracies

And just like that, Wei Changtian's first battle after breaking through the Second Rank, which also greatly changed the direction of the Xin Feng war, came to an end.

After this battle, the Qian Hui army retreated a full twenty miles.

It should be known that this was the first retreat of this million-strong army since the start of the war.

And all of this was caused by only seven people.

Such a battle was undoubtedly a huge blow to the two countries of Qian and Hui.

After all, if the battle last night could be staged once, then it could be staged a second, third, or fourth time...

Faced with such a situation, the two countries of Qian and Hui were left with only two paths.

Either withdraw troops immediately.

Or immediately send generals to take over the army and stabilize morale.

In short, no matter what the final decision of the two countries is, they will undoubtedly be very aggrieved.

Just like the Qian Emperor Jing Guoqing, after hearing about what happened last night, he was furious and vowed to avenge the dead Qian soldiers.

However, on the other side, the Hui Emperor Lu Hongji, who was with Chu Xianping at this time, had a reaction that was a bit intriguing.

"Leader Lu, you don't seem angry."

Da Hui, Xiao Province.

Like Da Ning, Da Hui also has a province system, with a total of thirty provinces within its borders.

And Xiao Province is located on the easternmost side, only a river away from the Xin Feng border.

Inside an inn in Xiao Province City, Lu Hongji and Chu Xianping, who had just rested here for a night, were having breakfast at this time, and were preparing to set off to continue rushing to the Fengyuan front line.

Without a doubt, the intelligence of what happened last night had been sent to Lu Hongji at the first time.

And just like what Chu Xianping asked, the expression of this Hui Emperor was very relaxed, as if he didn't take this as a matter at all.

"Brother Xianping, not showing joy or anger is a basic requirement for an emperor. How can everything be written on his face?"

After taking a sip of porridge, Lu Hongji replied with a smile: "Although I haven't shown it, perhaps I am already extremely angry in my heart?"

"Leader Lu, if you were really angry, you wouldn't say that now."

Shaking his head, Chu Xianping's gaze was calm: "What, do you still have a backup plan?"

"I wouldn't call it a backup plan."

Lu Hongji smiled: "It's just a plan that I had long ago."

"Is that so?"

Chu Xianping also revealed a hint of a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, those Kui Dragon people who have practiced the Moon Picking Sword should also be on their way to Fengyuan now, right?"

"Hahahaha! As expected, nothing can be hidden from Brother Xianping!"

Laughing twice, Lu Hongji did not hide it, put down his chopsticks and slowly said: "Even if Wei Changtian and Qin Zhengqiu are strong, I don't believe they can defeat my Kui Dragon people!"

"It just so happens that there are no generals in the army now, which gives me a reason to arrange these people to go in."

"Brother Xianping, you just wait and see."

"The good show has just begun."

"."

The good show has just begun.

Without a doubt, although Wei Changtian broke through to the Second Rank last night, and immediately showed great power, turning the Qian Hui army upside down, Lu Hongji still held a very optimistic attitude towards capturing Fengyuan and forcing out the method to break the Moon Picking Sword's inner demon.

And in Chu Xianping's view, this "optimism" is indeed real, but the reason given by Lu Hongji may not be true.

At least not all of it.

A few Kui Dragon people, even if they have practiced the Moon Picking Sword, their strength is definitely still a level below Qin Zhengqiu.

What's more, after Wei Changtian broke through to the Second Rank, the combat power he displayed was not much weaker than Qin Zhengqiu.

With these two people present, can the Kui Dragon people really reverse the war?

It can only be said that it is possible.

But this possibility should not be enough to make Lu Hongji have such a confident attitude.

So, the latter must have other plans...

"Leader Lu, Wei Changtian can be considered to have some talent as a general, he will not wait until your people rush to Fengyuan."

Lowering his eyelids, Chu Xianping took a small sip of porridge and suddenly changed the topic.

"Although the Qian Hui army still has more than 800,000 troops, they are already a mess."

"Do you believe that at the latest tomorrow, Fengyuan will withdraw the Heavenly Buddha Formation and take the initiative to attack?"

"Don't forget, there are 300,000 Ning Shu reinforcements in Yanmen County."

"When they complete the encirclement, how many days do you think these 800,000 people can last?"

"."

While drinking porridge and talking, Chu Xianping's voice was not loud, but his analysis was reasonable.

Indeed, the Qian Hui army, which had just suffered a subversive defeat and had no generals in the army, was indeed extremely weak.

Although there were 800,000 troops, their morale had already fallen to the lowest point.

At this time, as long as Wei Changtian recognized the situation clearly, and attacked them from Fengyuan and Yanmen in two directions, the Qian Hui coalition forces would probably collapse completely before long.

And once they were defeated, no matter how many Kui Dragon people Lu Hongji sent over, it would be useless...

It has to be said that Chu Xianping's control over the situation is very accurate.

But he only raised the question, but did not give a solution.

As for Lu Hongji's reaction to this...

"Well, Brother Xianping is right."

Nodding, he casually echoed this sentence, and then there was no follow-up.

Obviously, Lu Hongji must have made arrangements long ago, and he is not afraid that Wei Changtian will really do what Chu Xianping said.

Moreover, he does not intend to tell Chu Xianping about this arrangement...

The morning breeze is refreshing, the rising sun is warm, and there are several vendors outside the inn who are resting, and they do not know that their emperor is only a wall away from them at this time.

"Leader Lu, let me give you a kind reminder."

Giving Lu Hongji a meaningful look, Chu Xianping did not pursue the question, but slowly smiled in a slightly playful tone:

"Don't be too confident in everything."

"."

Noon.

Yanmen County, Yanmen City.

"Quick! Hurry up!"

"Bring enough Bigu Pills! We will not rest until we reach Fengyuan!"

"The enemy's morale has collapsed, and now is a great opportunity for us to make contributions!"

"The victory or defeat of this battle depends on this one! Everyone, cheer up!"

"."

Shouts rose everywhere, flags fluttered, and dust flew.

Outside the west gate, the 300,000 Ning Shu army, which had rested here for a night, marched westward in a mighty manner, heading straight for Fengyuan at the fastest speed.

That's right, just as Chu Xianping had predicted, Wei Changtian was not an incompetent person, so he would never let go of such a great opportunity.

He didn't even wait until tomorrow. He had just returned to Fengyuan not long ago when he had already ordered Han Zhao and others to let the army march westward at the fastest speed to complete the encirclement of the Qian Hui coalition forces.

Killing fifteen generals and killing 30,000 soldiers were not the biggest gains of the battle last night.

Crushing the morale of the Qian Hui army was Wei Changtian's real purpose.

What if you have more people?

As long as you are afraid of fighting, then you are just a mess.

Opportunity knocks but once, Wei Changtian could not give the two countries of Qian and Hui the opportunity to send new generals to reorganize their morale.

Since this was a naked conspiracy, he was not afraid that the two countries of Qian and Hui would notice it, and immediately made a decisive decision, ordering the 300,000 troops to arrive in Fengyuan within three days.

At this moment, Han Zhao, Liang Zhen, and Du Chang were gathering together to discuss how to complete this task.

They all knew that this was a unique opportunity. As long as they seized it, the Xin Feng war could end here, so their expressions were all somewhat excited.

However, in stark contrast to them, Yang Liushi's face was very gloomy at this time in a separate courtyard.

"What did you just say? Say it again."

She looked at the captain in front of her wearing the Tengu Army's black armor, her voice as cold as ice.

But the man opposite her remained unchanged, and immediately lowered his head and replied:

"Reporting, Madam!"

"This humble one just said that this humble one is from Young Master Chu!"
