Chapter 444



444 Taking the initiative to attack

The situation in the South had changed drastically in an instant.

Even the Emperor of Great Yan, Lu chaoxi, who was far away in Yan city, could not sit still.

He followed the plan and ordered Chen Bing, Yu Dahe, and Yingzhou’s Yan Kingdom troops to threaten the Wei Kingdom in the South.

However, he knew that it would be very difficult to shake great Wei with just this point.

Wei Yun was in the Wu Kingdom, and LAN nuo Xing was in the Wu Kingdom. Unless her father personally made a move, no matter how elite the Yan Kingdom’s Army was in the South, and no matter how empty the Wei Kingdom was after sending another army to the Wu Kingdom, there would definitely not be any problems with Xia Cang’s defense.

However, if the problem could not be resolved immediately, Lu chaoxi was worried that the Allied army of Qi and Wei in the distant Wu State would be in trouble.

This wasn’t just a random thought. It was hard to say how much help the chaotic Qi Army could provide. The elites of the Yan Kingdom in the South, the thousands of cultivators, were strong on average, but their numbers were too small. The two Dharma forms were originally the most important thing to rely on, but now the enemy also had two of them.

Lu chaoxi was truly worried that Yan Qi’s plans in the Wu Kingdom would fail after this wave.

That would be too unbearable.

The only person who could solve this problem was his father, Lu Qing.

Lu Qing’s reply to him was very simple.

“I know.”

Even though his father did not give him a clear explanation, Lu chaoxi still felt at ease when he saw these words.

……

The Yan Army went south. Although there were not many people and their strength was not strong on the surface, the Wei Army was like a cat that had seen a Tiger. They kept retreating.

No one knew if Lu Qing was part of the Yan Army.

In fact, from a God’s perspective, such a scene was quite funny.

The Yan Army was panicking as well. The Wei Kingdom did not know if Lu Qing was among their troops, but they knew. The leader was a Yunxiao sect nascent soul realm cultivator, and he was the only nascent soul realm cultivator in the entire Army. He was really panicking.

Not to mention Xia Cang, who was a famous Dharma power, as long as the Wei Army was a little serious and sent out a main force, he would not be able to stop them even if there were a few more nascent soul cultivators.

However, the Wei Kingdom didn’t do so.

The Yan Army rushed forward in a panic, and the Wei Army followed suit and retreated.

However, there would always be a bottom line for retreat. However, to the people of Wei, this bottom line was very deep.

Their bottom line was in xudu.

Xudu city was also built on a level six spirit vein that was rich in spirit Qi. At the same time, it was equipped with a high-level protective array.

This was exactly what Xia Cang was thinking.

He knew that if he showed his fangs and got involved in the war when the Yan and Qi Allied forces attacked the Wu State in the South, then the Yan state would not sit by and do nothing. They would definitely go south. Moreover, he had guessed that since Great Yan was able to throw Wei Yun and LAN nuo Xing into the battlefield of Wu Kingdom so calmly and fearlessly, the person who was going south to threaten them must be Lu Qing.

He had personally witnessed Lu Qing’s strength. It was also because of this that he deeply understood that his own strength was far inferior to Lu Qing’s.

If they were to fight one on one in public, he would not be Lu Qing’s match. He was no longer Lu Qing’s match more than ten years ago. Moreover, Lu Qing’s speed of growth was so fast that no one could understand it. By now, the difference in strength between the two sides would probably be even greater.

However, if the Wei Kingdom wanted to retain the hope of growing stronger, or the hope of independence, and not be swallowed up by the Yan Kingdom, and not become like the Wu Kingdom or the Qi Kingdom, then this war was inevitable.

No matter how much he felt that he was not Lu Qing’s match, he would still have to give it a try.

Of course, this so-called ‘touch’ was definitely not a head-on confrontation. That would be courting death.

He had made up his mind to use the formation to defend xudu.

Although he didn’t know how long they would have to defend, as long as the situation at Wu State turned for the better, and Zheng Yu and the Chu people joined forces to defeat the Qi and Wei Alliance Army, everything would be fine. It could be said that the clouds had parted and the sun was rising.

As for not being able to win in the South and not being able to defend Wufu, what else could he do? There was nothing much to say. If he should die, then he should die. He would do his best and leave it to fate.

In the end, the situation was that the Yan Army had already arrived at the city. The Wei people would not come out, but the Yan Army would not dare to attack the city.

They definitely didn’t dare to do so. It would be fine if they didn’t fight, but if they really wanted to attack the city, would they attack from the front?

The two sides were in a strange stalemate just outside the Xu capital.

After a few days, Xia Cang, who was in the Xu capital, was probably also thinking in his heart, ” is Lu Qing not around at all? ”

If Lu Qing had not been around, he could have personally led his troops and attacked once. He would have been able to defeat the Yan Kingdom’s Army below the city.

But after thinking about it, he still decided not to do so.

This old man, Lu Qing, was very evil.

If Lu Qing was nearby or hidden in the Army formation, he could create such an illusion to deceive people. If he stepped into this trap, he would probably be killed.

Without a formation to rely on, Xia Cang very rationally assessed the difference in strength between the two sides. Let alone defeating the opponent, he might not even be able to retreat in one piece.

After thinking about it, Xia Cang felt that it was better to be cautious.

However, this stalemate did not last long outside the Xu capital.

Half a day later, the nascent soul cultivator leading the Yan Army received an order from the rear, asking them to attack the Xu capital directly.

To be honest, he was quite resistant to this order. Wasn’t this the same as sending him to his death with his men?

Moreover, how could he possibly break through xudu with the little power he had?

However, military orders could not be disobeyed.

He could only do this.

The next day, the cultivators of the Yan Army took out the formation-breaking cannon and began to fire at the Xu capital.

However, the formation-breaking cannon was basically like a tickle to the defensive facilities of xudu. But at least, the Yan Army had already launched an offensive and had satisfied the requirements of the leaders in the rear, right?

However, such a perfunctory approach would definitely not satisfy some people.

He was asked to go one step further and directly send cultivators to attack.

What could he do when he received such an order?

On the fifth day, this nascent soul cultivator from Yunxiao sect could only carry a kind of solemn and stirring feeling as he led nearly half of the Yan Army’s combat power to attack xudu.

He had already thought it through. If the Wei people started to fight back and Xia Cang came out, he would not say anything. If a few nascent soul cultivators came out, he would have to block them with his life.

However, none of these things happened.

Not long after he led the main force of the Yan Army to launch an official attack, he saw two indomitable bodies of Dharma idols standing in the Xu capital almost at the same time.

He was very familiar with both of them.

One of them was the great general of Wei State, Xia Cang. He had the image of an indomitable general, and he held a battle blade in his hand, full of dignity.

And in front of him was another familiar face: Lu Qing!
