The Path of the Sage

Chapter 245: General Order

Views:

As soon as Yan Yukong finished speaking, no one tried to persuade him anymore. Both Fang Yun's courage and Yan Yukong's magnanimity made all the persuasion pale.

As a scholar, one must have an unyielding literary courage, even if the opponent is the seemingly invincible Imperial Capital Army.

"You are not a crazy person, but you are really crazy when it comes to doing things. Since Master Fang is going to fight, I will follow him. Our lives will be yours after the rainy night." Li Fanming said.

"Han is willing to go."

Zong Wude said helplessly: "In this case, we can only accompany you to the end. Fang Yun, it doesn't matter if you fail. You can give up the Mist Butterfly, but the Star King cannot be given to the demon clan. We will try every means to heal your injuries. Yan Yukong, Mo Shan, Sun Naiyong and you are the four great candidates in the world. You have the best hope to compete for the Star King."

"Yes, victory and defeat are common in the military. We will first fight the Imperial Capital Army. If we are really defeated, we can give up the Mist Butterfly and ask for help from the Monster and Barbarian tribes. They will not ignore us. Otherwise, they may be blocked outside by the Demon King's Golden Guards and the Imperial Capital Army." Mo Shan said.

Sun Naiyong smiled and said, "I am a military man, so I should be the one to say this."

Everyone smiled slightly, and the originally slightly bleak atmosphere improved.

Yan Yukong looked around at everyone and said, "Whoever doesn't want to fight the Imperial Capital Army can leave. If anyone doesn't contribute, or even interferes, I guarantee you won't be able to leave the Holy Ruins! Anyone have any questions?"

Liu Zizhi remained silent, Xun Ye also remained silent, and no one left.

"Okay! Naiyong is the descendant of a military strategist and has fought against the Imperial Capital Army before, so let him take command." Yan Yukong said.

Afterwards, Sun Naiyong immediately drew a simple diagram, pointed out a few key points, and talked about some precautions for the battle. Halfway through, Fang Yun said, "Stop here. Before the battle begins, I will fight the Imperial Capital Army alone. Your target is those demon generals, not the demon soldiers."

Sun Naiyong narrowed his eyes and looked at Fang Yun, and said slowly: "There is no joking in the army! If there is any deviation, the whole battle will be lost. Will you bear the responsibility?"

"I will kill the demon soldiers with the first sound of the war song. If I cannot defeat them, I am willing to accept the punishment." Fang Yun said.

"The first sound of the war song is worthy of Fang Zhenguo..." Shi Tang sighed.

"The first battle song has always been full of uncertainties. I cannot ignore other people's lives because of you. In this case, I will make two plans..." Then. Sun Naiyong made two battle plans, one based on Fang Yun's success and the other based on Fang Yun's failure, trying to make it foolproof.

Soon, the demon barbarians shouted, "Humans, are you ready? Are you still grinding ink?"

Sun Naiyong shouted, "We are ready. If you bastards can't even stop ten golden guards, go back to the demon world and hug your mother to drink milk!"

The demons and barbarians were furious and started to move, cursing.

"When you are beaten by the Imperial Capital Army and cry for your parents, remember to kneel down and call me grandpa! Good brothers of the Yaoman, go! Stop those ten golden guards and let the Imperial Capital Army deal with those humans! You bastards of the Imperial Capital Army. If you are defeated by the humans, don't fucking call them the Thirteenth Army of the Demon Realm in the future. We, the 'Bear and Tiger Army', can't afford to lose face like that!" Xiong Cang roared.

In front of the huge bronze gate, the wolf barbarian warrior looked at the human race with contempt and said, "Go and make them shut up! Let them know how powerful our demon race is!"

"Haha, I'm going to kill them all!" The emerald green bird on Wolf Manshuai's shoulder flapped its wings and flew over the Imperial Capital Army, hovering behind the Qi and Blood Demon Flag.

"Die!" Mingqi Bird said, and suddenly opened its mouth towards Fang Yun and others.

"Mingqi... Mingqi..."

A strange sound suddenly exploded, an invisible vibration spread, the air shook slightly, and a strong wind wrapped in the mysterious sound blew over, piercing everyone's eardrums.

There was dust rising from the ground.

"Hmph!" Yan Yukong snorted coldly, and the power of the literary realm spread out, completely blocking out Ming Qimi's voice.

Except for a few people such as Fang Yun, Mo Shan and Sun Naiyong, the rest of the people shook and then returned to normal.

The Mingqi bird didn't expect that there would be someone among the candidates who could stop it, and screamed, "As long as the reduction in the number of the Imperial Capital Army does not exceed 90%, the Qi and Blood Demon Flag will be there. As long as the Qi and Blood Demon Flag is there, you can't kill me! I want to see whether your literary power is greater or I can scream longer! Mingqi Mingqi Mingqi..."

"Imperial Capital!" A demon general suddenly shouted in demon language, and three thousand imperial capital soldiers stepped forward together. Different demon tribes were divided into different teams to facilitate hunting humans.

A faint blood-colored mist fell from the Qi and Blood Demon Flag, covering all the soldiers in the imperial capital.

"Fang Yun..." Yan Yukong's face darkened. He turned to look at Fang Yun, only to find that there was a piano on Fang Yun's wheelchair.

Even under the scorching sun, the light from the piano is clearly visible, especially the lightning dragon pattern on the piano, which is even a little dazzling.

"It's up to you." Everyone looked at Fang Yun silently.

Fang Yun closed his eyes and slowly placed his hands on the strings. After three breaths, he suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze was as fast as lightning and the fighting spirit in his eyes was as blazing as flames.

"A song of 'General's Order' to bury the Imperial Capital Army!"

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he plucked the strings with his fingers.

"Buzz..."

The famous song of the Tang Dynasty army setting out for battle was played.

The first paragraph of the general’s order is the military camp horn.

A sudden thunderous sound like thunder from the sky rang out from the strings of the zither and instantly spread to the front.

The sound of the demon general's strange bird singing was originally very loud, but when the sound of the piano came out, the dust that was originally blowing towards Fang Yun and others suddenly rolled back, and the wind and sand rose up and rushed straight into the imperial capital army.

The blood mist in the Imperial Capital Army was blown slightly, and all the Imperial Capital Army frowned.

Fang Yun moved his fingers lightly, and the Zhendanqin emitted long, thunderous sounds like a horn, with the power to command a hundred thousand soldiers, forming a powerful momentum that pressed down on the Imperial Capital Army.

The wind turned into a gale.

The barbaric soldiers of the Imperial Capital Army immediately felt a tightness in their chests, their steps suddenly stopped, and the entire army was in a brief chaos.

The strange bird suddenly closed its mouth and looked at Fang Yun in horror, because the Zhendanqin exuded a mysterious power that forced it to surrender.

The sound of the piano changed, and the second paragraph of "The General's Order" "The general gives an order" appeared. This part of the piano sound is solemn and strong, as if there is really a brave general giving a speech.

Translucent soldiers appeared in front of them, and in the blink of an eye, a thousand-man spear army stood in front of them, blocking the Imperial Capital Army.

These soldiers were obviously spearmen, but each of them wore heavy armor. Not only did they hold spears, they also had broadswords on their waists.

Fang Yun took a deep breath, and the sound of the piano changed again. The originally strong sound became heavy. A faint murderous intent filled the air.

The autumn mood is spreading.

The wind turned into a violent storm.

The storm rushed towards the Imperial Capital Army like a wave. Sharp and tiny wind blades were hidden in the storm. Dense "hissing" sounds were heard. The hair of the demons flew all over the sky. The demon generals were safe and sound, but long and thin wounds appeared on the fur of the demon soldiers.

A thousand spearmen began to run forward.

The demon generals of the Imperial Capital Army immediately shouted: "Speed up the charge! We can't wait any longer!"

"Such a powerful piano sound, such a large range, such a terrifying fighting spirit and murderous intent, this war song has the power of a country." Shi Tang couldn't help but admire.

All the candidates looked at Fang Yun, looking at his courage-shaking harp. The sound of the harp could injure 3,000 enemies. Isn't this something only a Hanlin scholar could do? Even a Jinshi scholar could hardly do it, so how could Fang Yun, a mere candidate, do it? Even if there was a sound of thunder, it would be impossible to injure so many demon soldiers!

Fang Yun's fingers suddenly sped up, and the sound of the piano suddenly became extremely urgent, sometimes powerful and majestic, like a charge of thousands of troops, and sometimes sharp and piercing, like a spear stabbing out.

The general's order ends. The two armies face off.

As the final song sounded, the storm disappeared and a brief silence appeared on the battlefield.

One thousand spearmen and three thousand imperial troops were about to collide.

Suddenly, there was a crackling noise from the vibrato.

The scholars around were horrified to see that the entire zither was covered in dense blue and white lightning. Fang Yun was not playing the strings, but lightning!

Suddenly, lightning from the piano rushed into the sky.

Everyone looked up. A thundercloud appeared in the sky.

“Crack! Crack! Crack!…”

Thousands of thunderbolts burst out from the thunderclouds, and each bolt of lightning struck a spearman.

The demons and barbarians were shocked. The power of thunder can penetrate the blood more easily than other forces. This is why the dragons are not afraid of the demons and barbarians. When they saw the thunder and lightning hitting the soldiers, they were immediately happy. However, their smiles soon disappeared.

All the soldiers struck by thunder were covered in flashes of lightning, and their bodies swelled instantly, becoming stronger than the strongest Bull Soldier.

"kill!"

The Imperial Capital Army and the Thunder Spearmen collided.

"Puff puff… "

The first thunder spear hit the abdomen of a wolf demon soldier, just like a sharp blade piercing tofu, piercing the wolf demon soldier through without any hindrance.

The wolf demon soldier was extremely brave and courageous, with no fear in his eyes. He even tried to scratch the spear soldier, but the spear soldier shook his spear and sent the wolf demon soldier flying.

The wolf demon soldier fell to the ground spitting blood, but there was no fear in its eyes. The murderous intent in the demon's bones was completely aroused. Then it felt a large amount of energy and blood rushing into its body, and it grinned.

As long as the Qi and Blood Demon Flag is here, the Imperial Capital Army will never die!

However, the wolf demon soldier suddenly froze. It lowered its head to look at its abdomen, and a flash of lightning flashed on the wound. Once the blood and energy healed the wound, the lightning would immediately tear the wound apart.

The blood of the wolf demon soldiers sprayed out like a burst dam. A large amount of Qi and blood flowed out with the blood, while the Qi and Blood Demon Flag continued to draw Qi and blood from other soldiers and send them into its body.

"Don't give me blood and energy, I can't survive..." the wolf demon soldier wailed softly.

The Qi and Blood Demon Flag is not a human and has no wisdom. As long as the Qi and Blood Demon Flag exists, the Imperial Capital Army will not die!

The wolf demon soldier lay weakly on the ground, his breath getting weaker and weaker, but a large amount of qi and blood was still injected into his body, until the infused qi and blood exceeded five times his own total qi and blood, and then the qi and blood demon flag stopped.

The wolf demon soldier is dead.

The 3,000 Imperial Capital soldiers who participated in the battle were left with only pure fighting spirit. Under the stimulation of their qi and blood, they turned into killing machines and did not notice these abnormalities for the time being.

However, others who were not in the battle saw it clearly.

"What's going on? Fang Yun actually has a way to break the Qi and Blood Demon Flag!"

"No, it should be the effect of Minglei Stone Paint, and has nothing to do with Fang Yun."

Shi Tang suddenly said, "No, Minglei Stone Lacquer doesn't have this effect. It's Fang Yun's piano music that carries murderous aura, like autumn turning into winter and the extinction of all things. And in this piece of music, there is the 'transparency' of the Nine Tones of the Qin Dao. The sound is distant and transparent, allowing the thousand spearmen to exert their strongest power."
