"Retreat, retreat again!" On the western battlefield, Yan Zhengqing commanded the soldiers to retreat continuously; since the war broke out the night before yesterday, it has lasted until this morning, and has lasted for more than 30 hours.
Xiao Xuan took action last night and eliminated two of the enemy's immortals, but the enemy still had many masters, and the Three Kingdoms had been planning for a long time and were ready to charge, so Yan Zhengqing had to retreat again and again.
Yan Zhengqing didn't want to win at this time, he just wanted to buy time and then retreat to the defense line of Langya County, which was a thousand miles away, or eight hundred miles away. As long as he could delay time and not cause trouble to the current Shang Kingdom, it would be enough.
Looking at the battlefield ahead, Yan Zhengqing was commanding with confidence and a gleam in his eyes.
Constantly commanding the army to retreat, this is something that ordinary commanders would not dare to do on the battlefield, otherwise there would be villains in the court who would impeach him. But in the Shang Kingdom, Yan Zhengqing had no such concerns. In the Shang Kingdom, everyone had common interests.
Li Xian, uses interests to bind everyone together tightly, and also has justice.
There was no conflict of interest, and they even complemented each other. The Shang Dynasty was naturally united. This is the strength of industry, commerce and capitalism. Of course, if you want to have enough profit, you must expand; once the Shang Dynasty stopped expanding, the country would inevitably be plagued by problems - this is probably another extreme of capitalism.
This is getting off topic. In short, Yan Zhengqing retreated step by step and stabilized the front line step by step. Yan Zhengqing did not receive the news of victory from Anyang. What Yan Zhengqing received was - stabilize the situation, delay time, and wait for rescue.
It’s not that Li Xian doesn’t want to tell Yan Zhengqing about what’s happening on the front line, but he still needs to put on a show right now.
While the Western Front was still fighting desperately, Li Xian had already delivered an important speech in front of the Anyang City Lord's Mansion; the main content of the speech was - United We Stand! However, this article was jointly written by Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, and Yan Ze'an, and some of the ideas provided by Li Xian were integrated.
"Since ancient times, people have lived in the world without sharp claws and teeth, or strong muscles and bones, but they can look down on millions of people. Why?"
"The era of sects has become a thing of the past, the era of nations has become the mainstream, and the human race has developed again, dominating the fertile land of the world. Why?"
"The reason is simple: unity."
"A single chopstick breaks easily, but a hundred chopsticks can support a huge rock. This is unity. If you separate a hundred chopsticks, they will break one by one."
"Now, the human race is facing the invasion of the demon race and the crisis of national extinction. However, at this moment, some people disregard the justice of the human race and brazenly provoke a civil war among the human race."
"As the saying goes, before you can resist foreign aggression, you must first stabilize the country. In order to eliminate evil, we have paid countless prices. In order to suppress the State of Cai, the Tang State had to withdraw its frontline generals when the army was under pressure. As a result, the State of Feng was completely exterminated by the monsters, and the State of Deng was forced to surrender. Tens of millions of people in the two countries became food for the monsters. Whenever I see this, my heart bleeds. These sacrifices could have been avoided, but they were sacrificed in vain because of the ambitions of some people. The disaster of one person will lead to the death of millions of people. This is the grief of the human race."
