The Path of the Sage

Chapter 2039: Heading north to Shuofang!

Views:

Liu Shan waved his sleeves and quickly left the city wall. A group of Zuo Xiang's party members followed him hurriedly, all of them looking worried and frowning.

Ao Huang screamed, "You are so cunning, you took off Fang Yun's shoes before I came back. Forget it, I won't go back yet, I'm going to kill some monsters for fun."

Ao Huang said this and turned to rush towards the monster in the distance.

Fang Yun stood up, stepping on the boots that Liu Shan had put on him, and looked around.

The sun had just risen, and the early autumn morning light was a little cool, making the sky a deep blue and covering the vast grassland.

Between the blue and green are the barbarians fleeing madly. From a distance, they look like a group of busy ants.

Since the eyes of the barbarians, barbarian soldiers and barbarian generals were all blinded by the light of the wolf-shooting arrows, they became living targets. Those experienced soldiers could often kill one with one sword. In the past, it would have been difficult to kill them without a dozen rounds.

The barbarian generals and barbarian lords were unable to fly and tried their best to escape, while the human Jinshi and Hanlin mainly hunted them. These barbarians were not hit directly by the power of the wolf-shooting arrows and did not suffer much loss of their own strength, but they had no intention of fighting and suffered increasing casualties.

The demon and barbarian kings originally on the east, west and south sides were relatively lucky and escaped at the first opportunity. Only a few slower demon and barbarian kings were hunted down by the university scholars and died one after another. Most of them successfully escaped the pursuit range of the human race.

There were too many barbarians, fleeing in all directions, and it was difficult to wipe them out with the military strength of Ning'an City. Fang Yun immediately sent letters to various local armies, launching a siege from all directions.

At this time Fang Yun also received news that the barbarian army that was blocked by the Wu State also began to flee, and the Wu State prepared to chase them for thousands of miles.

Letters of congratulations came one after another, and the discussion board was filled with discussions about the Battle of Ning'an.

The battle between the semi-saint incarnations, "Jiang Cheng Zi" and Liu Shan beating his legs and taking off his boots became the three most interesting events for everyone. Some readers were extremely excited and kept replying to discussions under these three topics.

The most excited were the scholars of Jing State, who praised Fang Yun with all their praise.

All the previous battles between the human race and the Three Barbarians, the Five Demon Mountains or the Water Tribe were local wars. No matter how brutal each war was, the casualties of the barbarians would not exceed 20 million. This time, Wolf Slaughter personally led the army and gathered almost all the combat forces of the Grass Barbarians, but was ultimately defeated.

Since the barbarians invaded the south several years ago, the Holy Academy has been counting the casualties of Jing Kingdom and the barbarians, and at this moment, the total casualties of the barbarians have officially exceeded 100 million.

This is the biggest victory in the history of Shengyuan Continent.

Upon seeing this number, scholars in Jing State spread the news, and people from all over the country cheered.

The human race’s military merits are divided into two parts: scholars have their own military merits, and at the same time, each country has its own military merits.

This time, Jing State won such a great victory, and the military exploits it achieved were enough for Jing State to obtain various great benefits in the next ten years. For example, the number of places in the imperial examinations would at least double, tens of thousands of Jinshi would be born a year, and the talents that the country could mobilize would also increase. There are countless such things, which are enough to take Jing State's national strength to a higher level.

The State of Jing was weak in those days, and even with Fang Yun it only became stronger in a few aspects. But this time, the defeat of the barbarian army pushed the State of Jing into the ranks of powerful nations in one fell swoop!

From then on, the people of Jing could hold their heads high when they met people from any of the Ten Kingdoms’ Kongcheng.

Military strength is always the foundation of a country.

Only with sufficient military strength can we expand, obtain the resources that the country urgently needs from the outside world, develop all aspects of the country, surpass countries of the same level, and catch up with more powerful countries.

We are constantly strengthening, not to oppress anyone, but to avoid being at the mercy of others!

Fang Yun stood on the top of the city wall. Under the blue sky, countless eyes fell on him.

The master of this war is not the incarnation of Guanhai, nor the incarnation of Langlu, but Fang Yun!

When the old friends looked at Fang Yun, they suddenly felt it was so unreal. They had never thought that Fang Yun had grown to this level in just a few decades.

As a Grand Secretary, he influenced wars at the national level.

When Fang Yun becomes a great scholar, what a charming and graceful person he will be!

Fang Yun said: "Everyone, eradicate all evil. As the Great General of Zhenbei, I will chase them for thousands of miles, break through the Helan Mountain Pass, recapture Shuofang City, and never let the Hu horse cross the Yinshan Mountain!"

Fang Yun's voice echoed around Ning'an City. People who were not from Jing Kingdom just nodded slightly, but all the scholars from Jing Kingdom were moved, and many of them had flushed faces with excitement.

The Helan Mountains, Shuofang City and Yin Mountains are simply scars of the Jing people.

During the heyday of the human race, the great city of Shuofang was built, radiating thousands of miles around, and firmly keeping the barbarians outside the Great Wall of the Yin Mountains. Huo Qubing even fought directly to the Wolf Mountain, built an altar to offer sacrifices to the heavens, and finally the incarnation of Wolf Slaughter showed up and forced Huo Qubing to leave.

However, even during the most prosperous period of the human race, it was impossible to build a city around Langjuxu Mountain. After all, to the north of Langjuxu Mountain is Wolf Saint Mountain.

Since the Han Dynasty, the limit of human control has been Shuofang City.

However, whenever there was civil unrest among the human race, the barbarians would inevitably invade the south and occupy Shuofang City.

Since the Han Dynasty, many famous military strategists and generals of the human race have reoccupied Shuofang City, such as Zhang Liao, Ran Min, Chen Qingzhi, etc.

Since the founding of the Kingdom of Jing, it has never occupied Shuofang City. The closest time for the Kingdom of Jing was when the founding emperor of the Kingdom of Jing went north with the prestige of the founding of the Kingdom, and finally saw Shuofang City from afar, knew that he could not capture it, and had to withdraw his troops.

Afterwards, Shuofang City became a pain in the hearts of everyone in Jing State, and all the military strategists in Jing State made it their lifelong goal to retake Shuofang City.

As a result, human military strategists believed that only whoever captured Shuofang City could be called a marshal.

Now, Fang Yun wants to seize Shuofang City!

"Head north to Shuofang!"

"Head north to Shuofang!"

"Head north to Shuofang!"

The soldiers of Jing State on all sides of Ning'an City roared like crazy, and while roaring, they fought bravely to kill the barbarians.

Those water creatures were shocked. They didn't know what kind of power Fang Yun used to increase the strength of the entire army. The murderous barbarians came like chopping melons and vegetables.

Tian Songshi smiled and said, "It has been hundreds of years since the human race has climbed Shuofang City. It would be a wonderful thing if we could climb the city wall again and look out over Yinshan Mountain. I will go with Saint Fang Xu."

Yang Xuanye said: "If there is a chance to visit Shuofang, I will naturally go there. When the time comes, the Holy Academy will certainly send people to rebuild the Holy Temple in Shuofang City to protect the human race."

"In this way, Jing Kingdom will gain four states today!" Nangong Leng sighed.

Hearing Nangong Leng's words, even the great scholars were surprised.

After taking back Xiangzhou, Jing Kingdom already has a territory of four and a half states. Now if they can occupy Shuofang City, the actual territory of Jing Kingdom will be close to that of nine states. Although it is not as rich as in the heyday of Jing Kingdom, the north is vast and sparsely populated, and the actual land area exceeds that of Jing Kingdom during its peak period!

During this barbarian invasion from the south, the soldiers of Jing State fought for several years and made enormous contributions. But if we really want to reward them, Fang Yun should deserve 90% of the credit!

Including Xiangzhou, Fang Yun has now captured five states for Jing State!

The number of territories and states that Fang Yun has seized has exceeded that of Jing Kingdom five years ago!

Fang Yun’s contributions are far from enough to just be crowned king.

It is no longer enough to describe Fang Yun as being so successful that he threatens his master. It can even be said that if Fang Yun wants the throne now, Jing Jun can only abdicate and give way to the throne!

Some scholars in Jing State suddenly felt a headache. Everyone believed that Fang Yun would not do anything, but that did not mean that the royal family would not think too much, or that other officials such as the Zuo Xiang party would not fan the flames.
