Attack Chen...
Attack Chen.
Yan Daiqing looked at these two simple words, but remained silent and dazed for a long ti.
He thought of his hotown, of the past of studying hard in his youth, of many things, the sunshine of Chen Country, and the wheels that rolled over the bluestone floor outside the window while reading.
These two words, Attack Chen, like a sharp sword, thoroughly cleaved a gigantic chasm between Yan Daiqing’s mories and reality once again.
In the wind at the end of August in Jiangnan, there was already a slight chilly lancholy. Yan Daiqing wrapped his hands in his sleeves, looking at the distant sky, thinking about his parents at ho. When he left ho, he hoped to beco a renowned scholar.
"But, Father, Mother, have I really beco a renowned scholar?"
"Would you be proud of ?"
Even if, your son is to personally beco a mber of the Heavenly Strategy Mansion.
To attack his forr country.
Yan Daiqing’s expression was sowhat complex.
The other core mbers of the Heavenly Strategy Mansion who knew of this news were also emotionally stirred.
The opportunity for the Unification of the World was about to co.
With the world in chaos and the countries having been peaceful for over a year, beside the normal recuperation and healing, each country employed other ans to restore national power.
Ying Country relied on eliminating corrupt officials to fill the state treasury’s deficit, while Li Guanyi’s faction, on one hand, had the support of the families, and on the other, the reserves from the treasury of the Khan King of the Western Regions Thirty-six Tribes.
However, attacking a country is a prolonged affair. Having fought hard for years earlier, the people’s livelihood suffered trendously. Now, if another war lasting three to five years is triggered, even among Li Guanyi’s forces, there will appear refugees and mutiny.
If in ten years, seventy percent of the ti is spent fighting, even the people of the Central Plains would not be able to endure it.
At this mont, the chance to launch a direct war isn’t yet here.
The previous strategy of the Heavenly Strategy Mansion was clear.
Utilize the supply sites exposed by Chen Tianyi, leveraging the secret realm of the Ancient Red Dragon, to gather forces and wait for the right mont to suddenly deploy troops, advancing swiftly, to capture the capital of Chen Country and Guan Yi City.
Although everyone felt that the forces should concentrate first on capturing the capital Jiangzhou of Chen Country.
Even though Guan Yi City is rich, it’s only a Guard City.
Strategically, it can’t compare to Jiangzhou City, hence it can be shelved temporarily.
Yet the ever-calm and compliant Prince Qin is exceedingly stubborn and obstinate here, insisting on including Guan Yi City as a target in the first phase of the siege, refusing to change.
Only Mr. Po Jun and Mr. Yan Daiqing, along with those war generals from the Imperial Guard of Chen Country, guessed the probable reason, for it’s the monarch’s request, strategists just had to pool their ideas and efforts.
Currently, tens of thousands of troops have amassed there, all elite southwestern flying troops—a front-line offensive can’t achieve victory.
But in Chen Country’s internal instability.
If they suddenly erge and directly seize its capital.
The strategic target can be entirely t.
Yet such a strategy is extrely hard to execute, requiring a rare opportunity to divert the world’s attention for the strategic surprise to succeed.
This opportunity has been awaited by the Heavenly Strategy Mansion for a long ti.
Chen Wenmian looked at the letter sent by Li Guanyi, gripping the handle of the double-edged weapon tightly, the Divine Weapon, evolved from the Wolf King’s hand, constantly emitting a chiming sound.
"Mother, Father..."
Chen Wenmian thought of his mother whom he almost managed to save, thought of his father who was beheaded, feeling an unbearable heartache almost suffocating him. He often had nightmares.
In the dreams, he returned to the Chen Country great sacrificial ceremony of those years, with fire everywhere.
He crazily searched for his mother. When he found her, she was smiling at him, then with a push, she sent him out while she was engulfed by flas. Every ti he got to this point, Chen Wenmian would wake up frightened from the nightmare.
Sweating coldly, sitting there for a long ti unable to co back to his senses.
Often sitting the entire night beneath this cold, tranquil moonlight.
These past causes and effects, this full twenty years of resentnt, are finally about to co to an end.
Chen Wenmian gripped the weapon, his expression tense, while Xiao Wuliang watched Chen Wenmian.
Sensing the Primordial Qi fluctuations from him.
"...is this the barrier to cross from the Seven Heavens to the Eighth Layer Heaven?"
"If you can cross it, the Young Master will step into the Eighth Layer Heaven without obstruction."
This strategy’s most crucial point is secrecy.
Li Guanyi’s secret letter wasn’t widely disseminated; only mbers of the Heavenly Strategy Mansion and those within the core strategic circle against Chen Country knew. Li Guanyi was still in Xiyi City, fortifying the city defenses, appearing at tis on Xiyi City’s walls.
Occasionally leading troops out, roaming about, crushing small factions from three converging forces, conducting raids, capturing soldiers and bringing them back for General Fan Qing to enlighten.
anwhile, Jiangnan Dao began mobilizing troops, and during this process, a batch of elites would mysteriously vanish each ti.
This even included the recently recovered Yue Qianfeng.
During this battle, Yue Qianfeng’s Battle Halberd was shattered by the Khan King. Upon recovery, the fearless Yue Qianfeng gained recognition from one of the five pieces in the Overlord Secret Treasure, the Axe of General Ying.
Now wielding a mystical weapon Battle Halberd in one hand and holding the embryonic form of the Divine Weapon left by the once top ten generals in the world in the other, after familiarizing with the techniques and weapons, Yue Qianfeng battled Yue Pengwu, the latter remarking personally that Yue Qianfeng’s showcased abilities had further improved.
