My clone is on the other side of the starry sky

Did the Guiyi Church call?

Cui Yan was actually not surprised at all. Such a big situation was set up and Huangzhou lost a lot of luck. How could Lu Xuan just get some money?

"What a plan." Cui Yan chuckled and said, "If I'm not wrong, the money for making ordnance and the iron ore came from Huangzhou, right?"

When purchasing iron ore through Kang State, the money may have been obtained in Huangzhou, and then used Huangzhou's money to buy Huangzhou's resources and use it to conquer Huangzhou, and the money continued to buy jade coins. Finally, Then go back to Lu Xuan and buy his resources from Huangzhou.

It can be said that except for the food in Huangzhou, everything else was taken away by Lu Xuan in this almost plundering way. It was ridiculous that he thought he had no plan, but was actually plotted by a mud-legged person whom he despised most. At this point, I am still complacent about being sold out.

Everyone was silent. At this moment, they truly realized how terrifying Lu Xuan was, or that there was a terrible wise man beside Lu Xuan who was controlling everything.

"Brother, it's useless to say anything now. For now, we'd better stop Lu Xuan first." Cui Ping said quickly.

"The hearts of the people are scattered and the morale of the army is low. The Guiyi Sect has been planning this matter for five years. Now even if our army is assembled, it will be difficult for us to defeat Lu Xuan." Cui Yan said bitterly.

"How do you know if you haven't been beaten?" Cui Ping gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, if it doesn't work, just ask Third Brother for help."

"No!" Cui Yan flatly refused after hearing this.

Because of the relationship between the mountains and rivers, the Cui family is now actually divided. Cui Yan occupies Huangzhou, while Cui, the third child, is developing in Jinzhou. Although they are still one family on the surface, they are actually in a state of separate affairs internally. This time Cui Yan wanted to harvest the plan to defeat the Guiyi Sect. Cui Yan also sought cooperation from the Xie family instead of Cui Zheng. Now if he asked Cui Zheng for help, it would mean that he had to bow to Lao San, which he could not accept. of.

"Lord!" The chief counselor thought for a moment and then said: "Three Young Masters, after all, the water far away cannot quench the thirst nearby. I think that we can join forces with the Xie family to take advantage of the Guiyi Sect to invade our Huangzhou and attack Yanzhou. If the Guiyi Sect is left in a difficult situation, we may be able to counterattack Yunzhou. If we can capture Yunzhou, the crisis in Huangzhou will now be solved."

Cui Yan nodded and said: "That's all we can do. I just didn't expect it to be in this situation. I immediately sent people to the Xie family to discuss the matter with Xie Yun. We will help them attract the masters and main forces of the Guiyi Sect. The Xie family After conquering Yanzhou, help our army invade Yunzhou!"

According to the original plan, the two families would send out troops to conquer after the Guiyi Sect was in mourning. However, the five-year plan failed completely. Instead, it was plotted by Lu Xuan. Now we can only unite the power of the two princes. Attacked by force.

After thinking about it, Cui Yan said: "In addition, send someone to Jinzhou and tell the third child that Huangzhou is in danger of overthrowing. I don't expect him to send troops, but I hope that my second uncle can come to help me, as well as the Murong family. , I hope I can borrow two fifth-grade masters from them."

This plan against the Guiyi Sect originally had nothing to do with the Murong family, but now his side has had a bad start. Now the Guiyi Sect is pressing harder and harder. Based on the current understanding of the Guiyi Sect, it is only on the surface. There are already seven fifth-level masters, and he doesn't believe that no new fifth-level masters have appeared in the Guiyi Sect in recent years.

At least at the level of fifth-grade masters, the Guiyi Sect is already superior to any of the three major families. He has no confidence in confronting Lu Xuan in this regard.

"Report~" Just when everyone was about to take action, a general rushed over.

"What's the matter?" Cui Yan asked.

"Lord, urgent military information has been sent from the front line. Several generals stationed in Dongling, the prefect of Dongling, surrendered without a fight. They all surrendered to the Guiyi Sect. Now the Guiyi Sect has successfully crossed the Yunhe River and stationed in Dongling!" General Shen vocal channel.

"What!?" When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

Although Yunzhou and Huangzhou are close to each other, they are blocked by mountains everywhere. The only one that is truly connected is Dongling County, which is only separated from Xiuwu County by the Yun River. In the past, the trade between the two sides was mainly based on Dongling County. In order to prevent the Guiyi Cult from jumping over the wall, Cui Yan specially deployed heavy troops in Dongling County and stationed his trusted generals. He never expected that Dongling County would be the first to surrender.

"But the Guiyi Sect's fifth-grade master takes action?" the chief counselor asked with a frown.

"No Guiyi Sect master took action, the Dongling County defenders surrendered on their own initiative!" the general said bitterly.

"Do you know the reason?" Cui Ping was a little uneasy. There was no danger between Dongling and Tianquan County. If the other party stepped into Dongling County, they could drive straight into Tianquan County.

Cui Yan did understand a little bit. He looked at Pei Ruhai solemnly and asked: "Is Dongling County also involved in the jade coin matter?"

"I really don't know." Pei Ruhai said with a bitter smile. He was only responsible for Tianquan County and making jade coins. As for other things, he didn't know, and Lu Xuan couldn't let him know.

"My lord, do you suspect that all the generals in Dongling County are rebelling because of the jade coin incident?" The chief counselor was a bit incredulous.

"Since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts. Nothing is impossible. This is the only explanation. The situation is worse than I imagined. I am using Yuzhu to plot against Lu Xuan, and Lu Xuan is also using Yuzhu to plot against me! This little Yuzhu is plotting against me. You should be very clear about how many people's interests the currency has affected. Nowadays, the jade bamboo trade has affected the interests of many people. In addition, the Yanyun food plan has failed. As long as Lu Xuan promises to accept the jade coins in his hand, I am afraid that There are a large number of people willing to surrender, not just the generals, but almost all the people in Huangzhou are involved in the jade coin issue."

Cui Yan sighed as he spoke: "If the grain-extinguishing plan can succeed and conquer Yunzhou in one fell swoop, this matter can be suppressed. But now that the grain-extinguishing plan has completely failed, it cannot be suppressed."

Everyone's hearts were heavy. Out of the fifteen counties in Huangzhou, the war had just begun, and one of them surrendered without a fight. Lu Xuan's continuous plan did not give them any chance to breathe.

"Hurry up and ask for help. You can't rely on luck. We can only rely on the ultimate master to determine the outcome, fourth child!" Cui Yan said and looked at Cui Ping.

If his luck is at its peak, even if he loses a county, he will not be afraid of the opponent's masters attacking him. But now his luck has begun to decline. With the current situation, by the time the Guiyi Sect's army arrives in Yangquan, there won't be much luck left. Without luck, one can only hope that the master level can surpass Guiyi Sect.

"Brother, what are your orders?" Cui Ping hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"You go to the border for me, ask General Shan Hongfei to come, and let Cui Yu get out of the border as soon as possible." Cui Yan said in a deep voice: "Ask him to go to Zhangjinzhou and Wuzhou for help quickly, and then send a few six Pin goes to Zhangzhou and asks the Xie family to send troops to Yanzhou as soon as possible."

Ordinary fast horses are too slow. With the Guiyi Sect's current aggressive appearance, I'm afraid they won't be able to make it in time if they send ordinary messengers there. They can only use fifth-grade masters to call in reinforcements as quickly as possible.

"Yes!" Everyone agreed and went to work.

Cui Yanze quickly gathered soldiers from Tianquan County. No matter what, they must at least block the opponent's troops first.

However, before Cui Yan could organize a defense, battle reports from the front line were already pouring in towards Yangquan.

"Lord, our army's southern defense line has been completely breached!"

"Lord, our army's northern front sent a letter asking for reinforcements overnight. The enemy's offensive is too fierce. Half of the cities in Qingxiao County have been captured by the enemy!"

"Lord, the due east defense line is beginning to collapse and we are in urgent need of support!"

Just overnight, Cui Yan's carefully arranged defense lines were in danger, and the southern front was completely lost!

"How many troops did the Guiyi Sect send?" Cui Yan couldn't accept it. Even if morale was low and people's hearts were unstable, the defense line he had managed for many years couldn't be broken so easily, right?

It would be fine if the opponent sent out fifth-grade masters, but judging from the battle report, the opponent did not send out fifth-grade masters at all. How did the opponent do it?

The delivery of logistical supplies alone cannot be that fast.

"I went to see it yesterday, and there were not many people and horses, probably less than 100,000!" said Cui Ruiyuan, a master of the Cui family standing next to Cui Yan.

"Less than 100,000!?" Cui Yan stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief: "Can an army of 100,000 break through my three lines of defense?"

If he had not known that his clan uncle could not lie to him, Cui Yan would have thought that Lu Xuan had used hundreds of thousands of troops to attack this time. He looked at Cui Ruiyuan and said: "And how could a hundred thousand troops and horses advance so fast? Not to mention the logistics. How to transport it? It’s impossible for the army alone to arrive so quickly.”

"They used a magic weapon, a kind of flying boat, but the speed was much slower than the flying boats Qin Tianjian had seen before. But for mortals, this flying boat was already extremely fast. It was not difficult to travel five hundred miles a day. The opponent's Soldiers, horses, and weapons are all continuously brought here via flying boats." Cui Ruiyuan sighed: "I wanted to take action, but there are masters in the opponent's army accompanying the army. Once I take action, it will be a fifth-grade duel!"

"Magical weapon!?" Cui Yan looked at Cui Ruiyuan, mortal war, using a large number of magical weapons? Daqian had never been so extravagant when he was at his most powerful. Where did the Guiyi Sect get so many magical weapons? Even the simplest magic weapon cannot be so widespread.

"I don't know about this, but the opponent's siege equipment may also be..." Cui Ruiyuan sighed. The opponent directly used magic weapons to attack the city. How can we fight this battle?

Cui Yan was a little unwilling to give up: "Uncle, our magical weapon..."

Cui Ruiyuan knew what he meant, shook his head and said: "There are only a few magic weapons in the treasury. If compared individually, they are far superior to the other party. But what is more powerful than the other party is not the magic weapon itself, but the quantity. The flying boat is much more convenient than the cavalry." We can attack the city directly from the sky. The city wall has no meaning to the Guiyi Sect. Even if we take out all the magic weapons, it will not help."

Cui Yan smiled miserably and said, "Then we can only watch him gradually encroach on Huangzhou?"

Before the luck has dissipated, the masters from Lu Xuan's side will not come directly to Yangquan, but as the city continues to be captured, the luck gathered in Yangquan will slowly dissipate. How will it be defended then?

"Just delay it as much as possible. I hope Second Brother and the others can arrive as soon as possible!" Cui Ruiyuan sighed.
