After the immortal disappeared

Luofengtan, the main camp of Guo’s army.

The camp was stationed on high ground, and Guo Baiyu stood on the high ground overlooking Mian City not far away.

From here you can see the guards on the city wall walking back and forth.

After more than two months, these guys are getting more energetic. Guo Baiyu doesn't quite understand. Apart from these Shanjin natives, he used to fight with Shan Zezhong to retake the city occupied by the Luodian people. Although the Luodian people are famous for their bravery and good fighting skills, they will collapse after being besieged by them for more than half a month.

In a siege, the besieged side quickly consumes not only food, weapons, and medicine, but also human lives!

Every time a siege lasted too long, some people in the city would disappear inexplicably, and those who survived would be pale, thin, and weak.

Not like the people in Miancheng!

Although they succeeded in robbing food outside the city some time ago, the fear of Guo Baiyu should be deeply rooted in people's hearts. Why can they still resist so stubbornly?

This doesn't make sense.

Guo Baiyu knew very well the background of the people and the war on the Shining Golden Plain.

The people here are wild but fickle, and they all think that they can live longer and are extremely selfish. To give a bad example, the local tyrants and their armies who have recently joined him from all directions are the true reflection of these "qualities".

The forces of the Golden Empire rise and fall in a day, so whoever rules will be the same? Only the common people would be crazy enough to want to live and die with a city.

After more than two months of siege, the people of Miancheng have not collapsed, but Guo Baiyu has lost his patience.

"It depends on the weather and the general attack will be in one or two nights!" He made up his mind.

The warlord behind him stopped him: "It's not time yet!"

As Guo Baiyu became more and more powerful, the Heavenly Palace sent him a military supervisor to supervise and guide him. This man was originally a Qingwei under Qingyang and was loyal to her.

Guo Baiyu glanced at him and said, "General, when is the best time to launch the general attack?"

"The Black Armored Army has not arrived yet. You must put the Lord Protector's plan first."

"The Black Armored Army is taking their time. I don't think they will be here in a short time. Wouldn't it be better if I take Mian City and then wait for them in the next city?"

The commander immediately said, "Miancheng has been resisting for so long. The more miserable and suffering they are in, the louder they will ask for help from Emperor Jiuyou, and the greater the rescue efforts of the Black Armor Army will be. Otherwise, if the war breaks out in the so-called Dragon God's territory, we have many powerful fighters who are unstoppable, and He Xiao may not give priority to this place."

The "our side" he referred to was of course the powerful and wealthy people who had reached an agreement with Tiangong.

Guo Baiyu liked hunting and knew that there was a way to kill wolves and bears. He broke the legs of the cubs and threw them into a trap. The cubs' cries would soon attract big bears and wolves.

The commander-in-chief rushed to speak, "He Xiao's troops are stepping up their training, but your mission has not been completed yet."

Guo Baiyu frowned. "I am not the only one who has been entrusted with an important task by the guardian. Why didn't others succeed?"

"You just need to do your own job, why bother about others?"

Guo Baiyu laughed: "Waiting like this is not a solution. These guys under my command are complaining and don't understand why I don't launch a general attack. They all came to me from all over the place. If I can't take down Miancheng for a long time, they will definitely look down on me!"

The strong are respected in the Shining Gold Plain. He had previously attacked the Dragon God Territory with great success, so the surrounding areas came to surrender, and the Heavenly Palace also sent him more support; but Mian City held him back for more than two months, and he could not defeat it left or right. The complaints in his military camp became louder and louder, saying that he, Guo Baiyu, was just a show-off, but could not defeat Mian City.

After he left Yao Country, he quickly understood the rules of Shanjin. To make your subordinates obedient, you must first make them fear and respect you, with fear coming before respect. If they are no longer afraid of you, then you must watch your back.

He couldn't let his prestige be damaged because of a mere Miancheng. Although Qingyang Protector had a plan, he, Guo Baiyu, didn't want to be a mere tool.

Otherwise, you will be as passive as Bai Tan, being manipulated by the gods.

"As long as you defeat the Black Armor Army, who would dare to say anything bad about you?"

"When a general is away from home, he may not obey orders from the army." Guo Baiyu stared at the commander-in-chief. "I have to take on all the problems in the army. I have to attack this city, and you can't stop me."

This so-called "commander-in-chief" relies on the authority of the Heavenly Palace, but he has no real power.

"I will report this to the Protector..."

"Then you report it." Guo Baiyu snorted. What does it matter? By the time the gods and the guardians of the heavenly palace knew about it, he had already finished the battle.

What is the attitude of the gods towards the human world and towards Shanjin? Those Shanjin powerful country bumpkins have no idea, but as a former general of Yao State, he sees through it.

In the past, he also regarded Miaozhantian as supreme, but after experiencing the destruction of Yao Kingdom and realizing the support of the gods for Bai Tan, he understood that no matter how respectful he was to the gods, the other party would only treat him as a dog.

The commander said sinisterly, "If you dare to disobey orders, you will not get the help of the gods. The words 'with the help of gods' are no joke. At the critical moment, you will know its significance."

Guo Baiyu understood that the other party was threatening him not to borrow the power of God.

…

The first obstacle that the Jiuyou Emperor led his army into Pixia:

Twin Castle.

These are actually two fortresses, one on the east and west hilltops, guarding each other.

In fact, the allied forces had previously captured the Twin Forts, but after General Chongwu returned to Bisha, he pushed the allied forces back a hundred miles in one breath and recaptured the East and West Twin Forts.

Before He Lingchuan attacked, he specifically asked General Pei, "How long did it take you to capture the Twin Fort?"

"Two and a half months," the general replied. "The Twin Castles are high up, their walls are strong, and they can watch over each other."

"So what's the difficulty?"

"..." Facing the Nine Nether Emperor directly was too stressful. General Pei wanted to wipe his sweat. "The road up the mountain is wide and not difficult to walk, but there is only one road, leading to the East Fort. If you want to go to the West Fort, you have to take down the East Fort first. But once we attack the East Fort, the enemies in the West Fort will come to support us."
