"May Your Majesty endure a few months of difficulty, and I shall turn the nation’s peril into safety."
After receiving the morial, Chen Dingye first sent envoys to Ying Country. That day, Chen Country and Ying Country suddenly announced new decrees, and they restored relations with Chen Country and opened mutual trade.
Ying Country relaxed its guard against Chen Country on all border fronts.
However, for the part under the Yue Family Army corps, military preparations were strengthened.
anwhile, Chen Country dispatched troops to the West Suppression Heroic Pass to support General Lu Youxian.
The people leading the army were Ye Zhongdao and Zhou Xianping, along with the rising young generals on the Northern battlefield, Han Siyuan and Tuoba Yang, to support Zhenxi City. People in both Chen Country and Ying Country noticed Li Guanyi’s great force.
Both Central Plains powers realized.
That they wanted to recuperate and restore Primordial Qi.
They must not let Li Guanyi have a night’s rest.
If this group of young forces were also to recuperate, then both Chen Country and Ying Country might have trouble sleeping at night.
The wise people across the land saw that Chen Country and Ying Country, which a month ago were at each other’s throats, had surprisingly reestablished a treaty because of Marquis Qin Wu of the Western Regions. Ying Country retracted its military edge and vigilance, developed its agricultural economy, and restrained the Yue Family Army.
anwhile, Chen Country had its hands free to fully support General Lu Youxian at the frontlines.
The waves that had cald were stirred once again because of one person, and Mr. Po Jun was responsible for taking over Mr. Wen He’s plan, brushing away the overly ruthless parts that were too against the natural order.
He extended a finger and said, "Lord, do not worry, I have three strategies."
The strategic montum of Breaking Army was even more upright.
Magnificently open and aboveboard.
The first part was to besiege without attacking, just assembling weapons and creating imnse pressure inside Zhenxi Pass’s Heroic City, while sending the supporting units behind to quietly retreat dozens of miles away after arriving each night, lying in wait in ambush.
On the second day, the drums of war resounded, flags fluttered, extending over ten miles, the sounds of horse hooves, war drums, and clashing swords and spears filled the air, and from the city looking outward, it seed like this Western Regions coalition army was making a racket daily, with endless reinforcents arriving.
Based on such daily numbers, tens of thousands ca each day.
The second day was still tens of thousands.
The war flags varied each day.
On the first day, the soldiers of Zhenxi Pass’s Heroic City could still relax, thinking that with this Heroic City, water couldn’t infiltrate, and now that His Majesty had dispatched reinforcents, this ti it should be stable.
On the second day, their smiles beca hard to maintain.
By the fifth day, seeing the endless military force, no one could laugh, not even those who usually loved to joke, now their pupils were trembling, their faces pale, and they were sowhat trembling with fear.
With this situation.
It is feared that finally, a force of a million troops would be gathered outside Zhenxi Pass.
At the sa ti, Breaking Army had a suite of strategies ready for the enemy’s morale.
Every day, they regularly increased the coverage area of the military cooking stoves. Initially, smoke rose from inside and outside a dozen miles, spreading outward daily, and over ti, in an area over twenty miles, faintly, flags could be seen, and cooking smoke from military stoves was visible.
Directly creating the montum of a million-strong army, anyone seeing this scene would feel that Marquis Qin Wu was hell-bent on taking down this damned Western Regions Heroic City.
Just climbing the city wall and looking outside gave the timid ones wobbly legs.
anwhile, the rchants previously infiltrated by Mr. Wen He started spreading ssages.
They did not proclaim how strong Li Guanyi was.
Instead, as Mr. Wen He instructed earlier, they promoted how powerful General Lu Youxian was. In previous years, when Marquis Qin Wu was just a fugitive, General Lu Youxian, with great might, led his army and pursued him into a very embarrassing position, almost killing Marquis Qin Wu under his military edge.
This past feud stirred the people’s hearts instead.
While this strategy was being implented, at night, Li Guanyi suddenly sensed a presence in the camp, its martial skills seed extrely high, ordinary people could not detect it, Li Guanyi picked up his weapon and walked slowly towards it.
Chen Wenmian was in his tent, polishing a double-edged long-handled saber when he suddenly sensed an intentionally released presence and slightly lifted his gaze:
"Who is it?"
A hoarse voice responded:
"Long ti no see, Crown Prince, your martial skills have improved greatly."
"I am very gratified, indeed."
Chen Wenmian’s expression changed slightly, seeing an elder appearing in his camp, his foundation imnse, faintly with Nine Heavens prowess, exactly one of the two great ancestors of the Chen Country royal family in Jiangzhou city’s Book Collection Pavilion.
Chen Wenmian’s face changed slightly.
"You?!!"
"Uncle Tianyi...?"
The elder smiled and said, "Crown Prince, it’s quite gratifying that you still call Uncle. However, you can put the weapon down, I did not co as an enemy, I just wanted to persuade the Crown Prince with a word."
He rely took a half step forward, his form ethereal, pressing down on Chen Wenmian’s weapon, and made Chen Wenmian yield. Although he was only twenty years old, and his martial skills honed on military formations, how could he compare to this over a century-old foundation of a Nine Heavens elder monster?
With just this move, he was pinned down.
The kindred martial technique suppressed him, making it difficult for Chen Wenmian to act.
He preemptively suppressed Chen Wenmian’s aura, otherwise, once this young famous general connected with the army, under the strengthened military force, even this elder with Nine Heavens might would find it difficult to restrain a general commanding a frontline force of fifty thousand troops.
