Chapter 74 Civil and Military Competition
Daxia was unable to provide military support for Dazhou, only some supplies and some weapons.

Such a result was a heavy blow to the envoy to Daxia. Although they had visited all the important civil and military ministers in the Daxia court, they were still turned away and went to Ye Mansion. Although the Taifu met, he didn't mention this topic, which made their hearts sink even more.

In the end, after the Great Zhou Mission made a detour in Daxia’s capital for three days, leaving some personnel behind, the rest of the envoys took the supplies donated by Daxia and detoured back to Dazhou.

Although this result was unacceptable to them, since the old lady Fu Ye Sucheng said it, no matter how hard they tried, unless the old lady Fu changed her mind, or Emperor Xia made his own decisions.

Obviously, the will of these two characters is beyond their control, and they can only reply to Empress Da Zhou with such a result.

In less than half a day, this news had already appeared in the court of Da Zhou.

None of the courtiers of the Great Zhou thought that at such a juncture, Great Xia would actually make such a decision. In doing so, it would be tantamount to cutting off a part of the Great Zhou's retreat.

If we don't do anything else, I'm afraid Da Zhou will really be in danger of destroying the country.

"How will Da Qi and Dayan respond?"

In the court hall, the Great Zhou Empress opened her mouth to break the silence, and then among the civil servants, a middle-aged official walked out and responded, "Qizou Your Majesty, Great Yan and Daqi do not want to send troops to help, but they are willing to donate 20 The supplies needed by the army for one month..."

"understood."

The empress pondered, although the current situation was expected, Daxia's attitude and reaction still surprised her.

"Decree, in the territory of Dazhou, all adult men who have reached the age of 45 and under the age of [-] are included in the reserve service. Merchants, wealthy households and the like are called for donations. Those who make outstanding contributions can be awarded officials..."

The Empress' powerful voices sounded in the Great Zhou Dynasty Hall, and government orders began to be issued one after another.

Since no foreign aid could be obtained, Da Zhou could only save himself.

"Let's retreat."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty..."

Seeing the back of the empress leaving, the court ministers finally stopped being silent, and started to discuss.

"How could Mrs. Ye be like this? Sigh..."

"Hush! Maybe there is another reason for this..."

"Master Huang, Lord Li, Duke Zhou, and Brother Pengju, can you do me a favor and gather in the humble house for a while?"

"Brother Zhao's move is very suitable for me!"

"That's right, it's been a long time since I've had the royal wine that Brother Zhao treasured..."

"Please!"

"Please……"

After retiring from the court, courtiers continued to invite friends to their homes as guests, and then left the palace laughing and chatting together.

In Weiyang Palace, the empress was walking in meditation, Dazai was standing aside, and three other veterans were also waiting anxiously.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send a letter to the old lady yourself?"

"Don't worry, there may be other reasons for this matter. According to the character of the master, he will definitely not make such a decision..."

"Your Majesty means that this move is the intention of Emperor Xia? But why did Emperor Xia do this? Can Great Xia resist the millions of soldiers of the Sanman and Gudi people?"

Although Dazai was startled, he was very rational. After thinking about it, he seemed to have discovered something.

"Don't forget, 5000 years ago, Shu Han Soochow and Zhu Ming..."

The empress opened her mouth to call, and the four people in the hall woke up instantly.

5000 years ago, if it weren't for a generation of legendary Zhuge Wusheng who broke the shackles of the world, broke through to the realm of gods, became No. 1 in the world, and assisted the Shu Han to unify the world.

If there is no Zhuge Martial Sage, a cultivator in the divine realm, perhaps the most capable and likely to unify the entire world would be Zhu Ming in the north.

However, the appearance of Zhuge Wusheng broke the balance of power among the three kingdoms, and then the sudden defection of Soochow put Zhu Ming in a difficult situation. However, in March, Zhu Ming had nearly a million troops and hundreds of great masters. So buried.

Now, 5000 years have passed, and as the Shu Han ruled the world, the descendants of Zhu Ming disappeared from the world. After 1000 years of world rule, the world fell apart again.

Chaos and chaos, thousands of years, countless countries are being established, destroyed and reincarnated.

Countless heroes and legends were born and then disappeared.

Until a thousand years ago, the prototype of the Seven Kingdoms was formed, then slowly declined, and finally the kingdoms were rotated, and then replaced by the current Four Kingdoms.

But today's Great Xia, if nothing unexpected happens, is the descendant of Zhu Ming in front of Wuqian.

Naturally, dominating the world has become their obsession to pursue in this life, generation after generation.

Thinking of this, both the Dazai and the empress seemed to understand, and then analyzed the current situation, he understood something.

"I didn't expect Emperor Xia to hide so deeply, it's terrifying..."

"Is it really so attractive to be ambitious and dominate the world?"

"Ugh……"

Everyone sighed in different ways, but in the end they were all silent.

How long can Da Zhou resist the siege of a million cavalry?And how many bloody storms will there be in this world.

The second pass of Daxia, the news that Daxia will not send troops naturally spread here, but after hearing that the old lady Fu disapproved of sending troops, many people were puzzled and complained, but there was nothing too much fierce reaction.

After all, the Great Zhou is the Great Zhou, and this is the Great Summer.

Ye Wushuang understood in her heart that this was Emperor Xia's move. This emperor with deep thoughts and far-sighted vision finally couldn't hold back anymore and began to show his ambition to the world.

But all of this has nothing to do with Ye Wushuang, he just uses his grandfather as a scapegoat, which makes him a little disgusted.

At the border of Dazhou, with the fierce attack of the Gudi people, the three barbarians also started to besiege Dazhou from the side, and it was time to use two prongs.The pressure on the Great Periphery Pass suddenly increased sharply.

Large-scale attacks broke out above the city, but within a few breaths, hundreds of soldiers and horses from both sides were injured. The tragic scene of the war abruptly created this scene of hell on earth.

Although the war continues to deepen, the war between the two sides is no longer limited to ordinary soldiers.

First, the warriors of the innate realm entered the field, and then they were blocked by the innate warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty. A bloody battle broke out. After dozens of innate masters were killed or injured, they stopped fighting and retreated.

But in just a few hours, a sharp and extreme ray of light rushed out from the Gudi army formation, and several master masters appeared unexpectedly, wanting to break through the blockade of the city wall, break into the city, and cooperate from inside to outside.

The generals of the Grand Master Realm of Dazhou reacted, and several figures rose into the air, and then the weapons in their hands made a slight tremor, and they rushed forward relentlessly.

The fighting spirit emanating from the battle of the master-level powerhouse has already made these ordinary soldiers frightened and terrified.

The scimitar as round as water, the halberd as strong as the wind, and the invincible mood of cutting through everything all opened their eyes.

The war of ordinary sergeants is still going on, but the war of the master level is even more attractive.

Life and death are in a hurry!

"what!"

In less than a stick of incense, one of the Gudi people's master-level masters was decapitated by a general of the Great Zhou, leaving behind a scream.

Seeing this, the rest of the masters didn't dare to stay any longer, and after a few more fights, they felt like retreating, and returned the battlefield to these ordinary soldiers.

"Good! Good! Good!"

On the top of the city, Zhou Wumin witnessed this scene, and shouted three times in succession, while the Da Zhou sergeant below saw that his general was so brave that he beheaded the enemy general on the battlefield. Inflicts a wave of damage.

"Ugh..."

The sound of Mingjin spread across the battlefield in the distance, and the Gudi people began to recede like a tide, leaving corpses and endless blood everywhere.

Temporarily repelling the Gudi people, the aura of all the soldiers just now fell instantly, and then leaning on their weapons, regardless of the injuries on their bodies, they slumped and rested on the ground tiredly.

"My lord, the situation is not very good..."

"I already know, but the news is limited to you and me, and it is not allowed to be passed on to third parties!"

"clear."

In the commander's residence, Zhou Wumin's heart twitched as he looked at the number of casualties that had been hastily counted in his hand today.

If the loss continues like this, I am afraid that the current 30 army will not last for a month.

Moreover, the number of injured ordinary soldiers is gradually increasing, but there is a shortage of healing herbs in the barracks.

Everything seems to be developing in a direction that is not conducive to Da Zhou.

At another border pass in Da Zhou, Kuo Tie has already started to order the siege of the city.

The three barbarian soldiers who have tasted the sweetness have gone crazy. Not only are they not afraid of death, but they also rush forward one after another.It also caused a lot of psychological offensive to the defending Sergeant Zhou.

Regarding this war, Kuo Tie was full of confidence. After all, according to the intelligence obtained, the Great Zhou Dynasty only deployed more than [-] troops to guard this pass.

If it is on the plain, this number of people is not enough for his troops to charge twice.

Relying on the blind defense of the city wall was able to slightly block his footsteps.

King Gudi has sent a letter, and the two sides have entered into a fierce competition, which means that there will be no other reinforcements for the Da Zhou sergeant in the city in front of him.

Give him five days, and this 10-strong army is bound to be ready to be slaughtered under his machete.

"attack!"

After a short rest, the three barbarians started to attack the city again, and the overwhelming flow of people climbed to the top of the city on ladders from all directions.

Countless people were pierced by the arrow rain, tied into hedgehogs and fell down.

"Mutuo, you go! Taking the top of the city is your first achievement!"

"Yes!"

In front of the battlefield, Kuo Tie reined in his eyes, and then spoke up.

A master general with disheveled hair took the order, galloping on his horse, and galloped towards the city ahead.

The arrow fell and was easily dodged by him.

Da Zhou's side quickly noticed him, and then continued to shoot at him with targeted arrows, but none of them did any good.

"I come!"

A half-step master at the innate peak state opened his mouth, then swung two spears, his eyes were like torches, and the veins on his arms bulged, and he galloped away with a whoosh.

"stare!"

"stare!"

Two sounds of piercing through the air came out, and they thrust towards the three barbarian general Mu Tuo. The first one was split by him with a machete, but the latter one went straight into the body of his horse under his crotch, staring to death on the battlefield.

"what!"

The war horse was killed, which was tantamount to a disgrace to the three barbarians. The wooden dragged his feet hard, and his body rose into the air.

A master master came to seize the city, and only the master master could deal with it.

"Good come!"

With the same shout, the first officer held a halberd and went up to welcome the guests.

The two masters from both sides faced each other, the halberd met the scimitar, and the weapons collided together, accompanied by a monstrous sound that spread to the surroundings, which made people's eardrums hurt.

kill!

With a halberd, Dazhou's lieutenant cut open Mu Tuo's scimitar, and then the halberd body struck him hard on the waist. A sound of pain rang out, and Mu Tuo trembled, almost losing his body-protecting energy!
Then there was a saber light back, and the fight between you and me was fierce, which added a bit of murderousness to the already tragic war.

The strength of the two was evenly matched, and there was a stalemate for a moment, Mu Tuo wanted to sneak attack from behind, and dodged his figure, but Lieutenant General Da Zhou sensed his intention, and directly pulled out and rushed forward.

After the halberd passed, not only did Mu Tuo fail to make a sneak attack, but was severely injured by General Zhou, and the tip of the halberd crossed his chest and abdomen.

In the second round, Lieutenant General Da Zhou went all out to deal with it, with the scimitar drawn by the hard wood on the front of the halberd, and then taking advantage of the situation, he shot back with his carbine.

Mu Tuo's eyes were at a loss, he looked down, and saw a section of the halberd protruding from his body, with strands of blood on it.

"Bah!"

Shaking the halberd, the body of the halberd emitted a powerful force, tearing Mu Tuo's body apart and falling to the ground under the Great Perimeter Pass.

The scene was quiet.

"Mighty! Mighty!"

The soldiers of Dazhou shouted in their mouths, their momentum was high, and the weapons in their hands kept fighting with bow and blade, and they fought harder.

"waste!"

When Kuo Tie saw this, he cursed angrily, then turned his horse around and headed towards the rear.

Seeing this, the rest of the lieutenants did not dare to stay any longer.

Ming Jin withdrew his troops, and the tragic offensive and defensive battle came to an end for the time being.

"General, fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!"

"Very good, I will credit it as a merit, and I will truthfully report this battle achievement to His Majesty!"

"Thank you General!"

"Go to rest."

"........."

As the leader of the young generation of the Great Zhou, this time he led more than [-] troops to guard here alone. For the first time, Luo Futing felt the pressure like a mountain.

There used to be coach Zhou Wumin sitting in front, and the pressure he received was relatively small.

Now, with the enemy outnumbered, his heart gradually became serious, not to mention, he had already received the news that Daxia could not send troops to rescue, and he had never counted on Dayan and Daqi.

With more than 20 sergeants under his command alone, it is still a bit difficult to stop the 60 people of the three barbarians, but if the follow-up troops of the three barbarians come up and the three barbarian troops of nearly [-] come up, he is not sure that he can lead How long do these people last.

And once the border here falls, does Dazhou have a future?
He didn't dare to think about it anymore, because he was afraid that he would not be able to stop the fear and fear in his heart.

Guarding here, he is already ready to die on the battlefield.

After calming down the wounded and adjusting some of his defenses, Luo Futing had time to return to his handsome mansion.

After taking off the armor, he sat on the chair tiredly, rubbing his temples with his hands.

…………

In the second pass city of Daxia, people from various schools of thought have already prepared matters related to the literary conference here, and have begun to make preliminary preparations.

But the sudden change of direction by the three barbarians caught them by surprise.

The geniuses of each family were also a little stunned, but under the advice of each family, preparations for the Wenhui essay test had already begun.

If the three barbarians arrive, then the martial arts test can also begin.

Since ancient times, there has been no distinction between high and low civil and martial arts. Participating in civil and military competitions also depends on the individual wishes of the students participating in civil and military competitions.

Of course, participating in both civil and military competitions is much more rewarding than participating in only one competition.

Especially this time when all schools of thought joined forces, the holy scriptures of the essence of schools of thought came out, and all the young geniuses of all schools of thought secretly made up their minds to fight for it.

Judging from the current situation, the most likely to win the top five in the civil and military competition are the peerless geniuses of Taoism, the children of the Confucian family, the son of the chief of the peasant family, the chief of the next generation of the strategist, and the grandson of the great sage of the Legalist family. That's all.

These five people are all leaders of the younger generation in terms of reputation, style, or strength.

If it wasn't for the fact that the prizes given out by all schools of thought were too generous, perhaps they would not even bother to participate in this essay meeting.

If there is no accident, they will be trained by their elders until they reach the half-step Grand Master state, then they will step out of the mountain gate, travel around the world of mortals, pursue their own aura, and then break into the Grand Master state.

From then on, he stood at the peak of all living beings and overlooked all living beings in the world.

It is precisely because of the special nature of this Wenhui that many people were able to see with their own eyes the astonishing geniuses among the schools of thought.

In the future, they will be the masters of the entire school of thought.

Just as preparations for the Wenhui were in full swing in the second pass of Daxia, at a distance of more than a hundred miles from here, two old men walked slowly one after the other.

"I said old Taoist priest, can't you walk faster?"

"Heh! If you don't give me a drink, you still want the Taoist priest to walk faster, and I don't have enough strength to walk? It's old man Nong, but if it were old man Ye, I would have been angry a long time ago."

"I'd rather come with Old Man Ye."

"You old man. I don't know what's good or bad. It's so interesting to be with the old Taoist priest. It's so uncomfortable to laugh and laugh. Just like the old man Ye, when you laugh, you always have a rotten air. What's so good about it?"

"Well, it's difficult for him, but I heard that he will come to the second pass city in a few days, and he will definitely bring the imperial wine for you..."

"That's as it should be."

The old Taoist took a sip of wine, then said, and took a few steps forward.

The old man Nong hurriedly followed, then smiled wryly.

After hearing the news, they all rushed to the border of Great Xia. Although they didn't want to admit it, they were old friends who had been with each other for decades, so they naturally understood some of the secrets.

Depending on where you are, some decisions are always involuntary.

Fortunately, they only came to the border this time to see the situation of the Wenhui, and Ye Wushuang and Wuyi by the way.

According to the news that the old man Nong got, Little Wuyi is about to arrive in the North City of the Great Zhou.

If there is no accident, they should also be able to meet again in the second pass city of Daxia.
