Report to the general, the situation in Huaizhou is still not good.

Chen Man's traitor is unpredictable, but he has appeared in Huaizhou many times. General Bai and General Huang, after suffering a loss, were cautious and did not dare to attack rashly to avoid being tracked by Chen Man in the wild. The two of them can only lead most of the troops now, and stand firm in Luoyang City, relying on Luoyang's fourth-order spiritual veins and the mountain protection formation to hold on. As for the elimination of demons, they can only send a small group of troops to leave the mountain protection formation and go to the periphery do it.

This can certainly protect the surrounding area of ​​Paul Yang, but the effect of blocking the spread of the chaos is very poor. The demons tried to attack Luo Yang several times, and Chen Man also sent his Nascent Soul clone to conduct common sense. After several failures, They did not continue to fight. They surrounded Luoyang without fighting, divided their troops to bypass Luoyang, and continued to spread chaos...

The problems around Luoyang are not serious, but Huaizhou is still inevitably falling...

So far, half of Xuzhou has been occupied. Xuanwuhou sits in Xudu, and the north of Xudu is not in danger for the time being; our spies entered Zhaizhou, and the news reported that Zhaizhou has disappeared. No matter if it’s the government or some local cultivation families, small sects, and small organizations; even ordinary people, they can’t be seen anymore. In other words, there are no living people in Dizhou now; half of Huaizhou has fallen...

As for the enchanters led by Chen Man, there is no clear statement yet, but it should be estimated that the total number should be no less than 200,000...

And among them, there may be hundreds of enchanters who are equivalent to Qiming monks and above, and there may be three or four if the Golden Core is over ten, and the Nascent Soul.

And the army of the Yan State has already crossed the defense line of the Dahe River, and half of Hezhou on the south bank of the Dahe River has completely fallen; the current Yan State army should have entered the territory of Yingzhou. From Yingzhou to Caizhou and then to Xuzhou, We no longer have an established means of defense north of the country.

In the worst case, maybe all will be attacked by evil spirits in the south, and the army of Yan State in the north...

Listening to the report of his subordinates, Xia Cang, the great general of Wei State, remained expressionless and said nothing.

The reporter raised his head, took a peek at the general's expression, and was very troubled.

After a few breaths, he gritted his teeth and said what was in his heart: Also ask the general to withdraw his troops, if this continues, even if we win the Qi country, our family and country will not be guaranteed.

After he finished speaking, many Wei Guo military officers who were present at the same time also stood up and said to Xia Cang: Please also withdraw the troops, General!

Xia Cang scanned the people below with his eyes, and he saw that many people had sweat stains on their foreheads.

This is normal. He, Xia Cang, is the undefeated God of War of the Wei State, with great power, in the army, and even in the entire Wei State, he is the one who speaks for himself.

To be honest, these officers are all his confidants, and most of them were single-handedly promoted by him. If it was normal, no one would have imagined that this kind of situation, which is a bit like forcing a palace, would happen.

Of course, this is completely different from forcing the palace. This is essentially a suggestion that even if Xia Cang doesn't listen, this group of people can't do anything, and they will still go up when it's time to charge for the general.

However, in the eyes of most people, it is really the autumn of life and death.

They had the upper hand in the battle with Da Qi's army. If the fight continues for a long time, almost every monk in the Wei Kingdom believes that it will be the Great Wei who will win in the end.

However, this victory cannot be achieved in the short term. Da Qi's army can be regarded as tough, and it will not be able to defeat it in a short while if it is stubborn; Da Qi's minister, Cui Qing, has a secretive whereabouts. If you kill my monk Qi, I will kill you monk Wei; if you come to me by force, I will lead a team to find a spiritual vein that Qi can control, and open the mountain guard.

Qi State also knows the current situation. Although they are at a disadvantage on the frontal battlefield, as long as they hold on, the first to collapse must be Wei State. Therefore, they are more resilient to war than ever before. After all, the dawn of victory is just around the corner.

On the contrary, the one who is more anxious will naturally be the Wei people.

That's why so many people even dared to break through the majesty of General Xia Cang and unite the crowd to speak out.

Seeing so many of his subordinates in such a posture, Xia Cang sighed slightly.

They either heard what the previous reporter said, empathized with them, or simply connected with each other in private, but in short, they have already expressed their attitude very clearly.

Xia Cang said slowly, It's not that I don't want to withdraw, but that I can't.

Ten days ago, I sent envoys to the Qi army to ask for peace. The conditions have been pushed to the extreme, but Cui Qing still flatly refused.

Hearing this, the person below couldn't help but let out a voice of resentment: Qi people, you really want to kill me!

But no one agreed.

That's no nonsense? The dispute between Qi and Wei did not happen overnight, they were enemies for generations! In the countless years of war, countless hatreds have been formed, how can it be so easy to let go.

Don't talk about what they think about Qi, just this time, isn't it Wei people who started the war? In this battle, the people of Wei launched a large army, which meant that they were rushing to fight a battle to destroy the country.

If our army retreats, Cui Qing will lead Qi's army to chase after him. In the process of withdrawing, I don't know how many soldiers of Wei will be killed or injured.

Even if they don't chase and kill, but hang slowly behind, and gradually nibble away from east to west, we may have to face the bad situation of having demons in the front and the army of Qi in the future.

The bottom only recognizes, and it's you who said it to me again.

There are optimistic people, but as long as they are more sober, it is not difficult to see that they have fallen into an extremely bad situation in this war that has almost decided the fate of the Wei Dynasty.

Suddenly a person stood up, bowed his hands to Xia Cang and said, General, I have a method, or it can be done.

Say it. Xia Cang's expression didn't change, but he already knew what the other party was going to say in his heart.

The person who stood up was a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul of the Great Wei Dynasty, the mighty Marquis Zhang Shichang. According to the intelligence of other countries, this person is considered to be the minister of law hidden by the state of Wei.

Of course, now everyone in the world knows that the Dharma Prime Minister is Zheng Yu, Marquis of Xuanwu, not Zhang Shichang.

But in any case, being able to be considered like this at least proves that he is indeed superior. He is an old Nascent Soul, and he has stood at the peak level of Nascent Soul for many years. Even, if the time is extended to the future, or if he is given some chance, maybe he can really become a real Dharma monk.

To suppress the chaos, the army is of course important, but more importantly, the general yourself.

If you can return to the country and join forces with Marquis Xuanwu, you can go south and solve the chaos. As long as you kill Chen Man, the chaos can be suppressed.

And I, on behalf of the general, can pretend to be you and try to deceive Cui Qing as much as possible, so that I can delay for some time.

Before that, we can withdraw our troops first. If Cui Qing is cautious and just follows behind unhurriedly, then ignore them, General, you go back first; if the Qi army dares to pursue quickly, General, before leaving, You can lead me to kill the carbine first. After suffering such a big loss, with Cui Qing's timid and cautious character, he will never dare to chase you too closely if he is not sure that you are not in the army.

And if we are finally discovered here... that's the only way to do it. Try to make the army escape as many people as possible. I only hope that the general can solve the domestic turmoil. A hundred years later, after my great Wei has recuperated , and then find the country of Qi to avenge us!

After saying that, Zhang Shichang knelt down on the ground, facing the direction of Xu Du, and kowtowed endlessly.

After Xia Cang heard these words, he looked at the other people below and asked, You also mean the same?

For my great Wei, I will die!

Then let's do it.

...

In the northern part of the Great Wei Dynasty, among the army of the Yan State who continued to march southward, Wei Yun's past temper had long since dissipated.

Although he didn't want to admit it, let alone talk to Lu Qing, he had to admit that what Lu Qing said earlier about leading the army to continue going south was really correct.

Victory came too easily for no other reason.

After breaking through the defense line of Dahe, Yuanying of Wei State who was originally stationed on the line of defense died and fled twice, the army of Yan State hardly encountered any effective resistance in the process of going south.

Yingzhou fell in the first battle; after entering the territory of Caizhou, Wei Guo was organizing resistance. First, the two Wei Yuanying who escaped before tried to use a fourth-order spiritual vein to protect the mountain and resisted stubbornly, but in the end they were attacked by Wei Yun and Lu Qing together, and under the indiscriminate bombardment of the formation-breaking artillery. , the mountain guard formation was crumbling, forcing the two to choose to continue fleeing.

Then, they gradually organized a line of defense in Caizhou, preparing to fight against it step by step.

But these are in vain after all.

The army of Yan State was still marching forward triumphantly, pushing them back to Xuzhou step by step, and there is definite information to know that they should have given up the idea of ​​gradually resisting and entered Xudu.

And this also means that the next wave of Great Yannan will include Hezhou, Yingzhou, and Caizhou.

What does the land of three states mean? There are only seven states in Dayan, and Xuezhou can only be counted as half of the state. Although the land is vast, it is too barren.

However, Caizhou, Yingzhou, Hezhou, can be regarded as a big state in the country of Yan, regardless of the population, land or resource output.

Especially Yingzhou, which is a richer place than Jizhou. In the entire territory of Yan State, I am afraid that only Wuzhou can be compared.

Now, these three states are all under the control of Yan State.

If Yan State can completely control and digest this piece of land, then the national power of Great Yan may skyrocket by more than 60%!

This is a very irresistible interest.

Even, Weiyun was already thinking in his heart, whether it is possible for Yan Kingdom to really have the ability to occupy this piece of land after the war.

Lu Qing didn't say anything about this.

Of course he wouldn't mind if he could.

However, when Dayan's high-level leaders were dreaming and leading their troops towards Xuzhou in the south, two pieces of news spread almost one after the other.

The first one is quite surprising: the Wei army in Xudu was dispatched to the south. There are not many people, but they are all elite.

Under the hard work of these people, Wei Jun took back the occupied area in the south of Xuzhou in a very short period of time. Even if there were demons at the Nascent Soul level among them, there was almost no resistance, and they were quickly wiped out.

And this army did not stop, but broke into the territory of Zhaizhou at a faster speed.

The last news about this troop is that they are heading towards Huhan County. From the looks of it, they are heading for the Ghost Face God Valley.

This is a trouble for Chen Man.

Although, Lu Qing knew that Chen Man's real body was not there.

If it's just Zheng Yu, then I'm afraid this guy doesn't have the guts. In fact, based on the information revealed in this intelligence report, everyone guessed that Xia Cang might have returned.

This is actually somewhat unexpected.

A few days ago, the peace talks between Great Wei and Great Qi failed, but despite this, the main force of Wei State has already retreated from the two prefectures of Qing and Xu. Cui Qing led the army of the Qi State and chased after him, but Xia Cang led the team to kill him with a carbine, which caused a heavy loss. Cui Qing himself had another face-to-face fight with Xia Cang, lost again and suffered some injuries.

Unexpectedly, not long after that, Xia Cang was likely to return to Xudu.

And from then on, it can roughly be analyzed, Wei Guo's strategy.

They should have planned to quickly find Chen Man, kill him, and solve the biggest source of the chaos, then retreat to Qi and Yan, and finally slowly deal with the huge trauma left by the chaos in the country.

Obviously, even if this matter is carried out like Wei Guo's plan, Wei Guo's vitality will be severely damaged.

Moreover, it is hard to say whether this will be possible.

Where is Chen Man so easy to find?

It is another matter whether they end the source of the chaos first, or whether the army of Yan State breaks through Xudu first, or whether the State of Qi attacks from the east.

And three hours after this news reached the top of the Yan army, a news of an earthquake from the east also arrived.

This news is even more surprising:

Cui Qing died.

This news is too explosive.

The first reaction of many high-level people in Yan State, including Lu Qing, was to feel that the information was wrong and that it was fake news.

That's Cui Qing, the famous Dharma Prime Minister who has been famous for hundreds of years, the pillar of the Great Qi, and Xia Cang's status in Wei State is the same.

Just die like that?

Xia Cang has already returned to Xudu from the Eastern Front, who can threaten Cui Qing? how did he die
