Chapter 189 Planning to go to Dayan

At this time, Yanzhou was indeed under pressure from the army of Dayan. Taking advantage of the fact that the previous emperor of Daqian had just passed away, the new emperor had ascended the throne, and Daqian was at war with Qi, they started a war and attempted to take advantage of the situation.

But Yanzhou had Mo Longling's subordinates and tens of thousands of troops to resist, so it was able to hold on.

Qin Ren led the army to lie in wait, waiting for Lu Zhanyan's order.

However, Lu Zhanyan did not send anyone to intercept the request made by Dayan, but instead had it sent to the capital more quickly.

Whether the new emperor chooses to fight back or cede territory, Lu Zhanyan has a way to deal with it.

In addition, General Zhenbei of Xuzhou had led his army forward with great momentum, defeating the enemy army of Qi State and bringing victory to the fore.

But the Qi State Master suddenly appeared, bringing with him ten members of the Witchcraft Clan, and released a large number of poisonous insects into the army.

All kinds of evil were thrown into the battlefield, causing heavy losses to the Xuzhou army.

If it weren't for the scent that could suppress red spiders smeared on their bodies, there would probably be more casualties.

The captured city and Wumen Pass were recaptured by the State of Qi.

General Zhenbei was so focused on killing the enemy that he did not notice a poisonous scorpion approaching, which directly poisoned General Zhenbei to death.

In this battle, Xuzhou suffered heavy losses.

Lu Zhanyan and Lu Zhanxing both stayed in the army camp. Due to the death of General Zhenbei, Lu Zhanyan had to stay in the camp in person.

Inside the tent, the lights were on, and six generals sat around a rectangular wooden table, discussing strategies with serious expressions. The entire tent was filled with a tense atmosphere, which made people feel depressed.

Lu Zhanyan sat upright in the main seat, his expression calm and his temperament still composed, which quickly infected several anxious generals.

Lu Zhanxing stood quietly beside Lu Zhanyan. There was nothing she could do. Now she was just her brother's temporary adviser and had no official position, so she could only stand there.

"This witchcraft is really hard to guard against, and it has caused heavy losses to our army. I wonder what you think, sir?" The middle-aged deputy general Li Sheng was the first to break the silence, his voice carrying a hint of anxiety and helplessness.

Others also turned their eyes to the young Duke Lu Zhanyan, hoping that he could come up with a countermeasure.

These poisonous insects are indeed difficult to resist on the battlefield. The densely packed snakes, insects and venomous scorpions can still be ambushed by them, no matter how powerful their martial arts skills are. This leaves the generals helpless.

He hated the Wu clan even more.

This kind of forbidden technique should not exist in the world.

"Generals, please be patient. Our Lord has already sent people to develop medicine to deal with these poisonous insects, but it will take some time to make. Generals, please stabilize the border for the time being. In a few days, we will launch a counterattack."

Upon hearing that Lu Zhanyan had a way to deal with it, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

After the six generals left, Lu Zhanxing found a seat and sat down: "Brother, are those medicines really useful?"

Originally the situation on the battlefield was very good, the morale of the army was high, and they won victory after victory. But at this moment, the State Master of Qi suddenly appeared on the battlefield with a group of people proficient in witchcraft.

They released a large number of poisonous insects, which instantly changed the entire battle situation. Faced with those poisonous insects that were hard to guard against, many soldiers fell into panic and confusion.

Faced with this sudden change, our soldiers were unable to exert their normal combat effectiveness and could only watch the enemy gradually gain the upper hand.

In the end, the battle ended in a disastrous defeat for our side, with nearly tens of thousands of soldiers killed in the battle.

"I don't know either. This medicine was provided by Taoist Xuanqi. I have already sent people to speed up the production."

This battle may not be as easy to win as imagined, especially since Dayan chose to take advantage of the situation at this time. Do they really think that they will be afraid of them?

"Brother, how are you going to deal with Dayan?"

Although Lu Zhanxing had anticipated that Dayan would not be so obedient, he did not expect them to be so shameless as to dare to threaten Daqian?

"I have already mobilized all the troops of the Molong Order. I have also secretly transferred the Molong subordinates from other states. Don't worry, I can still hold on."

If you want me to give up the city, forget it. Yanzhou is the territory I have developed with great difficulty. How can others covet it?

Lu Zhanxing thought for a moment and said, "The Third Prince of Dayan once approached me to discuss a deal, but I didn't agree. If Big Brother really can't handle it, it's fine to agree to the Third Prince's request."

I remember that the Third Prince has a force on the border. If we cooperate with the Third Prince from inside and outside, we can make Dayan suffer a loss.

As long as they can intimidate the army of Dayan, they will have the energy to deal with Qi.

Lu Zhanyan shook his head: "No, since the Third Prince can pass on information to us, I think he has a lot of power in the dark. Who knows if the Third Prince was involved in Dayan's attack on Yanzhou?"

Could it be that the Third Prince was forcing Xingdi to make a deal with him?

If he cooperated with him, the fact that he was secretly colluding with Dayan would be set in stone, and he would not allow this uncertain factor to exist.

Seeing that his elder brother objected, Lu Zhanxing did not bring it up again.

However, she decided to go to Dayan to find out what was going on with the third prince.

My eldest brother is in charge of Xuzhou, so I might as well go to Dayan.

She knew her eldest brother would not agree, so she planned to go secretly...

If she didn't have the ability of space, she would definitely not dare to have such an idea, but since she has the trump card of space, she doesn't have to worry too much.

"Brother, you stay here first. I will go back to the mansion to find out about the background of Taoist Xuanqi and see if he has any other ways to deal with the poisonous insects."

Lu Zhanyan pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Then you should be careful."

Lu Zhanxing nodded in agreement, then said goodbye to his brother and left.

She did go back home first and saw her beautiful little daughter first. Occasionally, she could still see her daughter in the space, but her daughter was still a baby and spent most of her time sleeping.

After playing with his daughter Ling'er in Su Xianye's yard and visiting his nephew An'an, Lu Zhanxing went to Taoist Xuanqi's yard.

Taoist Priest Xuanqi’s courtyard is right next to Fangfei Garden. Now that the third sister can walk normally, Lu Zhanxing is happy for her.

"Master Xuanqi!" When Lu Zhanxing arrived at the courtyard, he saw Master Xuanqi sitting cross-legged in meditation in a pavilion.

He has a very sage-like demeanor, just like an immortal.

When Yan Yusheng saw that it was Lu Zhanxing, he thought that this was someone his friend had asked him to take care of, and his cold expression softened slightly: "I wonder what the second young master wants you to do?"

Lu Zhanxing sat down opposite him casually: "Master Xuanqi, you are from the Divine Doctor Valley, your medical skills should be very good, right? I wonder how much do you know about poison?"

"I know a little bit. Didn't I already tell you how to deal with the poisonous insects?"

After he returned from Qi, he wrote down various methods of dealing with poisonous insects and told Lu Zhanyan. Why is he asking him now?

Lu Zhanxing has already confirmed that the mysterious man mentioned in the book who does good deeds without leaving his name is Taoist Xuanqi.

Otherwise, why would he provide these methods to deal with poisonous insects?

So she came here just to ask, does Taoist Xuanqi know Qi State's National Master Mu Qingran?
