Chapter 387: The Death of the Dharma Prime Minister

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

"The traitor Chen Man is unpredictable, but he has appeared in Huaizhou many times. After suffering a loss, General Bai and General Huang 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 to defend Luoyang City, and use Luoyang's fourth-level spiritual veins and the mountain protection formation to defend. As for clearing the demon-encroached persons, they can only send a small group of troops to leave the mountain protection formation to the periphery."

"This can certainly be around Paul Yang, but the effect of blocking the spread of demon chaos is very poor. The demon zodiac sign attempted to attack Luo Yang several times, and Chen Man also sent his Nascent Soul clone to perform common sense. After failing a few times, he did not continue to fight. They surrounded him and divided their troops to bypass Luo Yang and continued to spread the demon chaos..."

"There is not a big problem around Luoyang, but Huaizhou is still inevitably falling..."

"So far, Xuzhou has fallen halfway. Xuanwu Hou is in charge of Xudu, but it is not surprising that it is not the north of Xudu. With our secret spies entering Zhaizhou, the news reported that Zhaizhou is gone, and there are all cultivating families, small sects, and small organizations in the government and local areas. Even mortals cannot be seen. In other words, Zhaizhou has no living people now; Huaizhou has fallen halfway..."

"The devil-bearing person led by Chen Man has no clear explanation yet, but it should be estimated that the total should be no less than 200,000..."

"And among them, there may be hundreds of demons who are equivalent to those above the Qiming monk, with more than ten golden elixirs, and if there are three or four Nascent Souls."

"And the Yan State army has crossed the Dahe defense line, and half of the Hezhou on the south bank of the Dahe River has fallen completely; the Yan State army now should have entered Yingzhou. From Yingzhou to Caizhou and then to Xuzhou, we no longer have established defense measures to the north of the country."

"In the worst case, Xu will probably face the attack of evil demons in the south and the army of Yan State in the north..."

Listening to the report from his subordinates, General Xia Cang, the Wei State, had no expression on his face and did not say a word.

The reporter raised his head and peeked at the general's expression, feeling very entangled.

After a few breaths, he gritted his teeth and said what he said: "I'll ask the general to withdraw his troops. If this continues, even if we win Qi, our country will not be safe."

After he finished speaking, many Wei officers who attended the meeting at the same time also stood up and said to Xia Cang: "Please ask the general to withdraw his troops!"

Xia Cang glanced at the people below with his eyes. He saw that there were slight sweat stains on many people's foreheads.

This is normal. Xia Cang is the undefeated war god of Wei State, with a strong accumulation of power. He is the one who speaks the same thing in the army and even in the entire Wei State.

To be honest, these officers are all his confidants, and most of them were promoted by him. If it were normal, no one could imagine that this kind of situation would happen, which was a bit like a ward.

Of course, this is completely different from forcing the palace. This is essentially a suggestion. Even if Xia Cang doesn't listen, these people will not do anything. When they should charge for the general, they will still be there.

However, in the eyes of most people, it is really a critical survival now.

They had the upper hand in the war with the Great Qi army. If they continued to fight for a long time, almost every Wei monk believed that the final victory would be the Great Wei.

However, this victory cannot be achieved in the short term. The army of Daqi is still tough and hard-pressed, and it cannot be defeated in a short while. Cui Qing, the Dharma prime minister of Daqi, has a mysterious whereabouts. If he cannot defeat Xia Cang, he will not fight head-on with Xia Cang. If you kill my Qi cultivators, I will kill you Wei cultivators. If you force me to come to me, I will lead the team to find a spiritual vein that Qi can control and open the mountain protection formation to defend it.

Qi State also knew the current situation. Although they were disadvantageous on the frontal battlefield, as long as they held on, the one who collapsed first must be Wei State. Therefore, they were more tenacious towards war than ever. After all, the dawn of victory was right in front of them.

On the contrary, those who are more anxious will naturally be the Wei people.

This is why so many people even dare to break through the majesty of General Xia Cang and join forces with others to make suggestions.

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

They either heard what the reporter said before, empathized with it, or simply had some connections in private, but in short, they had already expressed their attitude very clearly.

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

"Ten days ago, I had already sent an envoy to the Qi army for peace. The conditions had reached the extreme, but Cui Qing still refused it."

When the person below heard this, he couldn't help but make an angry voice: "Qi people, I really want to die!"

But no one agreed.

That's nothing nonsense? The dispute between Qi and Wei is not a matter of one day or one night. They are enemies of generations! In countless years of war, countless hatreds have formed, so it is not easy to let go.

Don’t talk about what their Qi State thinks. This time alone, weren’t they the Wei people who started the war? In this battle, the Wei people opened up all the troops, which was aiming to fight a battle to destroy the country.

"If our troops retreat, Cui Qing will lead the Qi army and chase after them. During the withdrawal of troops, I don't know how many soldiers of our Great Wei will be killed or injured."

"Even if they don't chase and just hang slowly behind and gradually erode from east to west, we may have to face the bad situation of evil demons in front and Qi's army in the future."

I only recognize you below, and I started talking about you and I said one by one again.

There are not many optimistic people, but as long as you are more awake, it is not difficult to see that in this war that has almost determined the destiny of the Great Wei country, they have fallen to an extremely bad point.

Suddenly, someone stood out and bowed to Xia Cang and said, "General, I have a way, or it may be feasible."

"Speaking of it." Xia Cang's expression had not changed. In fact, he already knew what the other party was going to say.

The person who stood up was Zhang Shichang, a monk at the peak of the Nascent Soul in the Great Wei Dynasty. He was believed to be the Dharma image hidden by the Wei State in the information of other countries.

Of course, now everyone knows that the Dharma image is Zheng Yu, the Marquis of Xuanwu, not Zhang Shichang.

But no matter what, being considered like this at least proves that he is indeed extraordinary. He has been a senior Yuanying and has been at the peak of Yuanying for many years. Even if time goes a little longer in the future, or if he is given any opportunity, perhaps he can really become a true Dharma-like cultivator.

"It is of course important to suppress the devil chaos, but more importantly, General yourself."

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

"And I can act as the general, pretending to be you, and trying to deceive Cui Qing as much as possible, which can delay some time."

"Before this, we can withdraw our troops first. If Cui Qing is cautious and just follows him slowly, then don't care about them. General, please go back first; if the Qi army dares to pursue quickly, the general can lead us to kill a shot before leaving. After suffering this great loss, with Cui Qing's timid and cautious personality, he cannot be sure that you are not in the army, so he will never dare to chase him too tightly."

"And if we are finally discovered here... we can only do this. Try to make the army escape back and some people, and how much can they escape. We only hope that the general can resolve the domestic unrest. After a hundred years, after our Great Wei recuperation, we will seek the State of Qi and avenge us!"

After saying that, Zhang Shichang knelt on the ground for a long time, facing Xu Du, and kowtowed endlessly.

After hearing these words, Xia Cang looked at the others below and asked, "Do you mean the same thing?"

"For my Great Wei, I will never refuse to die!"

"Then do it with this."

...

In the northern part of the Great Wei Dynasty, the Yan army that continued to march southward, Wei Yun's temper had long disappeared.

Although he didn't want to admit it, nor did he want to talk to Lu Qing, he had to admit that it was really correct to lead the army to continue to move south after hearing what Lu Qing said before.

For no other reason, victory came too easily.

After breaking through the river defense line, the Nascent Soul of Wei, who was originally stationed on the defense line, fled to death, the Yan army had almost no effective resistance during the process of moving south.

Yingzhou went down; after entering Caizhou, the Wei State was organizing resistance. First, the two Wei State Yuanying who had escaped before tried to use a fourth-level spiritual vein to resist stubbornly, but in the end, under the attack of Weiyun and Lu Qing, under the bombardment of the formation of breaking the formation, the mountain protection formation was shaky, forcing the two of them to choose to continue to escape.

Then, they gradually organized the defense line in Caizhou and prepared to fight step by step.

But these are in vain.

The Yan army still made rapid progress and pushed them back to Xuzhou step by step. There was a clear information to know that they should have given up the idea of ​​gradually resisting and entered Xudu.

This means that Dayan will take a wave in the south and will take Hezhou, Yingzhou and Caizhou into their pockets.

What does the land of the three states mean? The land of Dayan is only seven states, and among them, Selangor can only be considered half a state at most. Although the land is vast, it is too barren.

However, Hezhou, Yingzhou, Caizhou, and in Yan State, can be regarded as a big province, whether it is population, land or resource output.

Especially Yingzhou, this is a place richer than Jizhou. In the entire Yan State, it is probably only comparable to Wuzhou.

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

If Yan State could completely control this land and digest it, then the national strength of the Great Yan might have soared by more than 60%!

This is a very uncontrollable benefit.

Even Weiyun was already thinking about whether it was possible for Yan State to really take up this land after the war.

Lu Qing didn't say anything about this.

Of course he wouldn't mind if he could.

However, just as the senior leaders of Dayan were dreaming and leading their troops to Xuzhou in the south, two messages were almost heard.

The first one is quite surprising: the Wei army in Xudu went south. There were not many people, but they were all elite.

Under the struggle of these people, the Wei army took back the fallen area in southern Xuzhou in a very short time. Even if there were enchantists at the Nascent Soul level, they had almost no resistance and were quickly eliminated.

However, this army did not stop, but broke into Zhaizhou at a faster speed.

The last news about this army was that they were heading to Huhan County, and they looked like they were heading towards the Ghost Face God Valley.

This is going to trouble Chen Man.

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

If it were Zheng Yu alone, I'm afraid this guy wouldn't have the courage. In fact, based on the information revealed in this information, everyone's consensual speculation was likely that Xia Cang had already returned.

This is actually something unexpected.

Some time ago, the peace talks between the Great Wei and the Great Qi were not completed, but despite this, the main force of Wei State had retreated from the Qingxu and the two prefectures. Cui Qing led the Qi army to chase after him, but was led by Xia Cang to kill him with a resurgence, and the losses were quite heavy. Cui Qing himself fought with Xia Cang again in person, lost again, and was injured.

Unexpectedly, it was not long before Xia Cang was likely to return to Xudu.

From then on, it was possible to analyze the strategy of Wei State.

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

Obviously, even if this matter is like the plan of Wei, it will be severely damaged when it is carried out to the hottest.

Moreover, it is hard to say whether this can be accomplished.

Where is Chen Man so easy to find?

Whether they will end the source of this demon chaos first, or whether the Yan army will first attack Xudu, or whether the Qi will come from the east, is it still another matter.

Three hours after the news reached the top leaders of the Yan army, a news that was like an earthquake in the east also arrived.

This news is even more incredible:

Cui Qing is dead.

This news is too explosive.

Many senior executives of Yan State, even Lu Qing, first reaction to this matter was that they felt that the information was wrong, and that this was fake news.

That's Cui Qing, a master of Dharma and prime minister who has been famous for hundreds of years, is the pillar of the Great Qi country, and has the same identity as Xia Cang in the Wei Kingdom.

Just die like this?

Xia Cangdu has returned to Xudu from the Eastern Front battlefield. Who can threaten Cui Qing? How did he die?
