In the palace of King Jiang.
"What?? The marshal was beheaded and Yangcheng collapsed? Even the masters of my royal city were killed and injured??"
The majestic man sitting above suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "What do you do for food?? Are you so incompetent??"
This man was wearing a large aqua blue robe inlaid with gold threads. There was a picture of a dragon rising thousands of miles on the robe. He looked extremely majestic in life. His face had sharp edges and corners, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had an indescribable sense of confidence and dominance.
When he heard the report from the old man kneeling on the ground holding a jade bottle below, his face was filled with uncontrollable shock and anger.
On both sides of the palace stood the civil and military officials of the Jiang Kingdom. Everyone was surprised to see that the highly respected Taishi Liu in the past had become so miserable today. When Taishi Liu said that the marshal had been killed in battle, the faces of these people were as dull as ever...
The military leader of a country has been beheaded. How powerful the person who came here must be.
"Your Majesty, in the desperate situation, the old man fought to the death to save the soul of the commander. Now our country of Jiang and the country of Han have gone to war. The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the army cannot be without a commander for a day. Although the body is destroyed, the soul of the commander is still there. , can still be resurrected, and his military talents can still be fully utilized without affecting the actions of our army!"
Taishi Liu below spoke.
"What I am concerned about now is not the matter of the military general, but the wild cultivator who dares to act wildly on our Jiang Kingdom! Who is that guy!! Is he from the Han Kingdom?"
The king was furious, slapped the dragon chair and roared angrily.
Everyone in the palace knelt down, lowering their heads and not daring to look directly at the Holy One.
The aura of majesty spread throughout the palace and inside.
Taishi Liu knocked his head on the ground, not daring to raise his head, and said: "I don't think this person is from the cold country. The purpose of his trip is to steal the parts of the Dragon Ming Pearl that were captured by the marshal. If this person is from the cold country, , why didn’t this person take action during the previous war? His strength is powerful enough to reverse the situation of Jiang Han’s army.”
"So, he's just a casual cultivator who came out of nowhere?"
"Most likely! Over the years, there are not a few casual cultivators who have come to Jianghan Realm for the sake of the Dragon Ming Pearl, the most precious treasure of Han Kingdom. Han Kingdom is also often harassed by rogue cultivators because it owns the Dragon Ming Pearl, so the country's national strength is not as developed as ours! Even if the Han Kingdom is not as strong as us! They own an extremely cold land and have countless divine cold ice, but they are no match for us. The fundamental reason for this is the Dragon Ming Pearl!"
"I don't care so much!"
The monarch said angrily: "Anyone who dares to provoke me, the Jiang Kingdom, I don't care who he is, what sect he is, or what disciple of a big shot, I only want one result, and that is to make him submit to the law and know who is the master of Jiang Han Realm!" !Who has the final say in this world!"
The roar spread throughout the hall and outside.
"The Holy One is so graceful and mighty that he will definitely be able to unify the Jianghan world!"
Everyone shouted.
"Now, resurrect the commander immediately, rectify the army and horses, and be prepared to prepare for the Han Kingdom to suddenly attack our Jiang Kingdom! In addition, when the war begins, I will personally march to Yangcheng and wait for you to plunder the formation. I will take this dragon with me. I want to see if that person dares to come and snatch the Mingzhu parts from me!!"
The king said deeply.
Although he is the king of a country, he also achieved this status by force. The most powerful people in the country of spiritual practitioners are not the generals and marshals. These people are just talented generals. It does not mean that the strength is the highest. Often the most powerful Strong people are kings and royal families! If a monarch wants to unify a country of spiritual practitioners, he should not rely on laws and policies. These things are difficult to restrain the omnipotent spiritual practitioners. To truly control them, the only thing that can be relied on is force, supreme force. When everyone is afraid, Only then can we reach that peak.
When all the civil and military officials heard this, they didn't dare to say anything anymore. They just kowtowed in defeat.
Only Taishi Liu raised his head and said to the monarch above: "The power of the Holy One has conquered heaven and earth. It is not difficult to subdue this thief. However, the reason why we were defeated miserably in this trip is not without reason. All of these are It must be blamed on the sacred object worn by the casual cultivator."
"Fantasy?"
The king of Jiang Kingdom frowned.
"Yes, a divine thing! I'm sure that man must be protected by a divine thing." Taishi Liu said seriously: "No matter whether we use swords, guns, swords, sticks, or wind and fire mystical techniques, we can't cause any harm to him. This person is very powerful. But judging from the profound energy he used, this person's strength is not high. I guess that he should also exist as Emperor Lingxuan. The aura of Saint Lingxuan is two completely different from that of Emperor Lingxuan. In terms of artistic conception, this person is not very powerful, but he can easily kill so many masters from our Jiang Kingdom... I think there should be no other explanation except for divine objects!"
"There's no other explanation? Huh, why don't you just say it's your incompetence?" the monarch said angrily.
Master Liu immediately bowed his head and remained silent.
"A group of Emperor Lingxuan's masters went to capture people, but only three of them came back... Huh, you still have the nerve to say it!"
"What your Majesty said is absolutely true. We are indeed incompetent. When this matter is over, I will have to face the wall for ten years. I have passed my meditation. However, the current situation is not optimistic for Jiang State. Although Han State is retreating steadily, it is already a great success. We are enemies of the Jiang State, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. It is not easy for our Jiang State to devour the Han State in one bite. Moreover, if we are in a hurry and let this casual cultivator join the Han State, what will happen to us? This is not good news. I believe that you should never underestimate the enemy at any time, and you should use your full strength to deal with any enemy! This man has many gods and weapons, and if he can forcefully compete with him, even though he can kill him, But I am afraid that it will lose a lot of combat power of our country, Jiang. Therefore, I hope that your majesty can take the Virgin of the Rivers with you in this attack, and you will be able to defeat it easily. All things are mutually reinforcing and complementing each other. Yin and Yang are mutually reinforcing, but Yin cannot be separated from Yang. When a person possesses the powerful power of fire, he will never possess the divine power of water. Once the two powers are combined, he will only lose all power. In the same way, this person also possesses a divine object that can resist all external harm. , then, he must not wear a magic weapon that can resist mental or soul damage. Therefore, once Our Lady of the River takes action, I think I will be able to easily restrain this person! Although with His Majesty’s strength, it is easy to kill this person, but I believe that such a pariah , no need for His Majesty to take action."
Taishi Liu made his words very clear, and at the same time gave the monarch a step down. More than a dozen Lingxuan Emperors took action, but only two people escaped. The opponent was definitely not an ordinary person, even if the monarch was very confident in his own strength. But he had to weigh it at this moment, not to mention that he had never met Su Yun, so he didn't know how deep it was.
"Since the Grand Master has said this, I will not refute it." The monarch said solemnly: "The Holy Mother of the Rivers!!"
"Yes!!"
…
…
The government and the public in Jiang State were shocked, and the Han State was also uneasy.
The death of Prince Jiaoshe was like a knife stabbing into the heart of the King of Han Kingdom.
Neither he nor the important ministers and generals of the Han Kingdom believed that Jiaoshe committed suicide. They unanimously linked Jiaoshe's death to the people of the Jiang Kingdom, and unanimously believed that the death of Jiaoshe was committed by the people of the Jiang Kingdom. .
In the Imperial City of the Cold Kingdom, in the magnificent and beautiful palace that was like a palace made of ice crystals, there was one cry after another at this moment.
"My son... my son!! You died so miserably!!!"
The one who was crying was not the King of the Han Kingdom, but the Queen of the Han Kingdom. She lay down at the King's feet and beat the ground again and again. The people of the Han Kingdom were different from the people of the Jiang Kingdom. They were all beautiful and beautiful, and so was the Queen. So, at this moment, she was crying so heartbroken and heartbroken that people couldn't help crying.
Although the people of the Han Kingdom are very good-looking, the king of the Han Kingdom is thick, thick, and as strong as a bear. At this moment, his face was full of anger, his majestic eyes were staring directly downward, and there was a slight chill in the depths of his pupils.
The civil servants and generals below all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Waited for a long time.
"My son Jiaoshe! My son Jiaoshe... died tragically in the hands of the Jiang people, died tragically in their hands! And you... you bunch of losers! But you are still standing here! Why are the people who died not trash like you? My son!! Why??”
The king of the Han Kingdom finally couldn't hold it back any longer and opened his mouth to roar!
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The queen of the country will express my condolences."
Everyone cried.
"Calm down? Do you want me to treat this as if it didn't happen?"
"Your Majesty, we have no such intention."
An old man below knelt on the ground, prostrate and shouted: "However, the prince is deceased, and the heart is full of sorrow. What we have to do now is not to cry here, but to avenge the prince and regain the lost treasure dragon of our cold country." Mingzhu! Continuing with useless sadness will only make this sadness even sadder. Only action can transfer the sadness to our enemies!"
After hearing the old man's words, the face of the Han Kingdom King finally looked a little better.
"So, according to the Prime Minister's wishes, what should we do now?"
"Reorganize the army immediately, rely on Gucheng, and defend the city. Jiangguo has won successive victories and will surely pursue the victory. Gucheng is the throat of our Hanguo. They will definitely attack. We can fight them in Gucheng. There is no need to win a decisive battle, even if we drag on and hold on to a stalemate, it will be beneficial to us. The people of Jiang State cannot stand the severe cold of our Han Country. As time goes by, they will retreat, and we will have a chance."
When the king heard this, he frowned.
"Prime Minister, I'm afraid this strategy is inappropriate. The previous disastrous defeat in Bingcheng has caused us to lose troops and generals. Now it will be extremely difficult to defend Gucheng."
At this time, a young man wearing armor came out and spoke directly.
As soon as this person came out, the eyes of everyone around him were all focused on him, and many people were sweating.
"Oh? General Gongsun, what's your clever plan?" The old man turned around and looked at this man.
But I saw the young general Gongsun Changqing said with a serious expression: "The way of war depends on surprise. Currently, the strength of Han State is far weaker than that of Jiang State, and Han State has no masters available. If we hold on to Gucheng, I am afraid that we will be defeated." It is extremely difficult. As you have said, Prime Minister, Gucheng is the throat of our Han Kingdom. How can Jiang State not send all its troops to attack such an important place? If so, with the strength of Gucheng's troops, it is impossible to defend it. The general thinks that since we can’t defend it, we can just abandon the city!”
"Be bold!"
The king was furious.
Gongsun Changqing immediately knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand me. I don't really intend to abandon the city. We can ambush all the forces in the city around Gucheng and set a trap inside Gucheng to lure the Jiang Kingdom army." Enter the city, wait for them to enter the city, and rush out immediately to catch them off guard. Valley City is located in the valley, like a big cage. We only need to slightly change the city's enchantments and turn them into prison bars to surround the cage. But if Jiang Guojun is completely annihilated here, even if all their strength cannot be defeated, at least severely damaging Jiang Guojun is not a big problem."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone's eyes lit up.
Compared with what the Prime Minister said about staying in the city and defending it, this method is indeed feasible.
"Set a trap in the empty city?" The monarch's expression quickly improved upon hearing this, and when he looked at Gongsun Changqing, his eyes were filled with a hint of approval.
"Do you have any opinions?"
"I have no objection."
Everyone shouted.
Even the Prime Minister didn't speak.
Seeing this, the monarch nodded and immediately shouted: "You listen to the order. Now, I order the Prime Minister to be the military advisor, Gongsun Changqing to be the vanguard officer, and then allocate an army of 200,000 to go straight to Gucheng to fight to the death with the Jiang people! !”
"Yes!!"
The crowd chanted.
Two hundred thousand... This is the last strength of the Han Kingdom.
