The Path of the Sage

Chapter 2021: Gradually showing signs of decline

Liu Shan said, "Prime Minister Jiang's words are incomplete. Whether the Holy Academy rescues or not is the most important thing in this battle! If the Holy Academy does not rescue, retreating immediately is the best option. I want to ask you all, if the Holy Academy does not rescue, what will Ning'an City use to defend? Human lives? If you all die in Ning'an City, then it will only be a matter of time before the capital falls in the future."

Zhang Poyue said: "If the people of Ning'an City are united, even if the Holy Academy does not help us, we still have a chance to win. What we are afraid of is that people like Liu Xiang and Gu Mingzhou are rejected by the fate of Jingguo. I wonder if they are in Jingguo but their hearts are with the barbarians, and they are secretly making trouble!"

"General Zhang, the situation is urgent, so please don't engage in unnecessary verbal disputes."

"That day, Gu Mingzhou kept chattering and constantly disrupting Fang Xusheng's command of the battle. If he had no intention of obstructing Jingguo, I would not believe it. Now we are discussing how to fight against the barbarians, but you not only encourage us to retreat, but also want to take the opportunity to cause trouble and punish us, the military strategists who have worked so hard to command the battle. On the contrary, you are just standing on the city wall, talking nonsense without any shame."

Liu Shan smiled and said, "General Zhang, why do you say that? I am the left prime minister of a country. I should be at the center of the country to handle the affairs of the world. Now I come to Ning'an City, what do you want me to do? Let me lead the troops or train the people? I should give advice in normal times and fight in emergencies. Now is not the time for me to take action."

"The only thing I'm afraid of is that when we really need you to take action, you'll hide behind us, planning how to retreat!" Zhang Poyue sneered.

Liu Shan said calmly: "If necessary, I will go through fire and water without hesitation! I didn't come to Ning'an City to see the scenery!"

"Since the Left Prime Minister said so, we must not retreat when the crisis comes!" Zhang Poyue said.

"Of course." Liu Shan looked calm again.

Zhou Junhu glanced at Liu Shan, then looked at Fang Yun and said, "Ignore those nonsense. What's more, even if the Saint Academy doesn't take action, the various families will not ignore it. If Ning'an City falls into danger, Chen Sheng will at least send an avatar to protect us from leaving."

"That's right!" Zhang Poyue said with a smile.

Hearing the name Chen Guanhai, my troubled heart calmed down a little.

When Liu Shan and others heard the name Chen Sheng, they did not dare to act rashly.

Zhang Poyue said: "If my prediction is correct, once Fang Xusheng leaves the city wall to rest, the barbarians will surely launch a full-scale attack. Fang Xusheng will probably have no choice but to return to the city wall and continue commanding until his energy and strength are exhausted. At that time, the barbarians will surely deliver the final blow. Therefore, please keep your energy at about half, and rest occasionally, not for too long, just close your eyes and rest for half a quarter of an hour to support you for a day. After all... once the great scholars and the university scholars join the battle, the task of commanding the entire army will fall on your shoulders."

Fang Yun nodded slightly.

The other scholars sighed secretly. At a time like this, they really could only rely on Fang Yun. Even the great scholars could not accurately control the millions of soldiers on the four walls. Controlling one side was already the limit. Moreover, one must be a great military scholar to do so. However, not all great military scholars were suitable for commanding large-scale battles. Some great military scholars were more like fierce generals, good at taking the heads of enemy chiefs in the midst of thousands of troops.

Many famous generals are admired by the people, and courage is an extremely important factor, no less important than wisdom.

Tian Songshi said: "The number of barbarian kings and demon kings on the other side far exceeds that of our university scholars, and the number of great barbarian kings and great demon kings also far exceeds that of our great scholars. This battle is really too difficult. Moreover, we cannot borrow the talents of the Holy Temple indefinitely. We can only use them in critical moments. The barbarian kings are not to be feared. The barbarian kings are the only ones we need to be wary of. And... I don't know whether Lang Chi will take action or not."

There was a brief silence on the city wall.

After a while, someone spoke up and continued to discuss how to target the barbarians.

From beginning to end, Liu Shan listened with a smile, looking confident.

During these few days, the barbarians from all sides even gave up attacking other countries and all headed towards Ning'an City, but the Wu State refused to give in and stopped some of the barbarians, otherwise there would be at least 20 million more barbarians outside Ning'an City.

It takes a long time to prepare an army of tens of millions. Before they are ready, the human race has already discussed a preliminary plan.

Rather than discussing it, it would be more accurate to say that they used some of the methods commonly used by various countries or the two worlds. There was no truly effective plan, and they could only improvise.

As night fell, the human race changed guard again, and Fang Yun also sat on Pingbu Qingyun and closed his eyes to sleep.

Many people looked at Fang Yun and felt distressed.

Woo…

With the sound of trumpets, the barbarian army almost came out in full force, like a black torrent in the night, surrounding Ning'an City.

Niu Shan, who did not fight today, flew straight out of the city and rushed towards the Barbarian King Wolf Plain.

Lang Yuan showed an expression of disgust and revulsion that he could not conceal, as if several hundred kilograms of fat were forced into his mouth, but he had no choice but to fly into the sky.

What surprised many readers was that the leader of the Wolf Saint Army and the demon king Lang Chi did not show up, but had been practicing in a tent near the giant tiger skin.

Three hundred thousand Wolf Saint Army are all dispatched!

Soon, the barbarian army was distributed in the four directions of Ning'an City, forming four bloody flags of demons and barbarians.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Tens of millions of barbarians roared in unison, and four blood-red flags of demons and barbarians suddenly flew high into the sky. Finally, they merged into a huge blood-red flag of demons and barbarians, standing above the star shadows created by the Half-Saint Wolf Slaughter.

The moment the huge blood flag of the demons was formed, all the demons felt full of strength, while the humans felt a little uncomfortable.

Barbarians from all directions continued to attack Ning'an City, and the city was in overwhelming crowds.

Without Fang Yun's command, the city wall quickly became a chaotic battlefield. Fortunately, there were many aquatic creatures, and the human race would not be defeated in a short time.

A quarter of an hour later, Fang Yun opened his eyes, and with the power of Yonggu's "Song of Righteousness", he instantly took over the entire army and continued to command the battle.

The situation immediately reversed.

However, the barbarians were not discouraged and continued to fight with high intensity.

Unfortunately, as Liu Shan said, the human race is finding it increasingly difficult, while the casualties among the monsters are decreasing in the same period of time.

Three hours later, one hundred barbarian kings flew out from all directions of Ning'an City.

The real siege officially began.

There are only more than a hundred Grand Secretaries in Ning'an City, and there are quite a few water monster kings, but when they reach the monster king level, they rarely fight to the death, and their strength is far inferior to that of the monsters on land.

However, the human race and the water demon king had already agreed that the water demon king would be mainly responsible for preventing the human grand scholar from being approached by the demon kings, while the human grand scholar would try his best to prevent the water demon king from being killed.

After the four hundred barbarian kings flew to a mile outside Ning'an City, they actually stopped in mid-air and released their magic.

Water, fire, ice, thunder, sound, fog, blood, qi… all kinds of sorcery were flying in the sky, like terrifying monsters, rushing towards the human soldiers in groups.

Seeing the methods of the barbarians, the human Grand Secretary felt conflicted. The good thing was that the magic of the barbarians was not strong and could be easily blocked by war poems. The bad thing was that this obviously consumed the Grand Secretary's strength.

The human race could only bite the bullet and fight back, releasing all kinds of war poems.

Time passed slowly, and Fang Yun did not take any action. While commanding millions of troops, he continued to build the Wentai of the Temple of War.

The human race gradually showed signs of decline, and even though Fang Yun was commanding personally, human soldiers began to suffer casualties.
