Chapter 404: Lightning Attack on Wei Chu [Happy New Year to Everyone]

"What!"

"Attack Wei and Chu at the same time?"

"Let me command four semi-saints, twenty grandmasters, and one thousand fourth realms?"

"Is this true, Mr. Li, you are not lying to me?"

…

When Bai Yu heard Li Nuo tell him about the lineup for this operation, he was so excited that he was trembling. Last time, there were 100 Grandmasters, but this time, there were directly half-saints, and they were also the leader of the Sanqing Sect and the founder of Shushan...

Although Daxia and Zhao were weak, they each had their own strengths.

For example, in Zhao State, medicine was extremely prosperous, which was unmatched by Wei, Chu and Qi.

The martial arts of Daxia flourished, and the Sanqing Sect, with three saints, could be called the number one sect on the continent, while the second largest sect on the continent was Shushan.

The Three Saints of Sanqing Sect and the Patriarch of Mount Shu are much stronger than ordinary half-saints. Taixu Zhenren of Mount Shu is already at the peak of half-saint, so he would not be at a disadvantage even if he fights one against two. The Sanqing Sect is good at combined attack. When the Three Talents Sword Formation is set up, it will take at least five half-saints to deal with it.

Plus Lord Li himself, Bai Yu never dreamed that he would be able to fight such a rich battle in his life...

Seeing his unbelievable look, Li Nuo nodded and said, "Wei and Chu are attacking Daxia from two fronts. We have to contain them in Yue to relieve the pressure in the southwest and southeast..."

Perhaps this was his chance to be promoted to a half-saint in military strategy. Bai Yu breathed rapidly, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command!"

…

Wei State.

Yunzhou.

Yunzhou in the Wei State was famous for the Ximen family, which had two semi-saints of the Yin-Yang School. Even the imperial court treated the Ximen family with great courtesy, not only granting them a large amount of fiefdom, but also giving them the privilege of tax exemption.

However, the glory of the Ximen family has become history.

The sudden death of the two semi-saints threw the Ximen family into chaos. The Ximen family members, who used to be arrogant and domineering, now rarely even step out of the house.

Yunzhou is located on the border of Wei State, but the permanent military force here is only 10,000.

Bordering Yunzhou is the State of Yue. The former State of Yue could also be considered as the territory of the State of Wei, so naturally it did not need heavy defense. If such a tiny country had any rebellious intentions, the State of Wei could destroy them countless times within a day.

However, after the change of leadership in Yue State, the Wei court did not respond.

The people of Wei all knew that the imperial court was attacking Daxia and might have no time to take care of this place. After taking over Daxia, these small countries around it would all be in the pocket of Wei.

Inside the Yunzhou camp.

As the commander-in-chief of Yunzhou, Lu Ping was drinking alone in his tent.

According to military regulations, drinking is not allowed in the barracks, but he is the commander-in-chief, and no one here can control him, and no one dares to control him.

A few days ago, he was caught drinking by military patrols. After he beat the patrols up, the patrols didn't dare to say a word anymore.

When the imperial court went to war with the Xia Kingdom, those with status and background were sent to the front lines to gain merit, but he had to guard Yunzhou, a remote place.

The Wei Kingdom had all the advantages in its attack on the Xia Kingdom. He seemed to see the military merits slipping away from him. How could he not feel depressed?

"well!"

Lu Yun let out a long sigh.

He is a soldier and doesn't want to get drunk in the tent all day long. He also wants to earn military merit and he also wants to fight in battles!

Among the Yunzhou defenders, there were many soldiers who shared the same idea as him.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed into the tent. When crossing the threshold, he fell down, rolled and crawled up, and said in panic: "General Lu, no, it's bad, the enemy is attacking!"

Lu Yun put down the jar of wine, his eyes still blurry with drunkenness and a hint of confusion.

Enemy attack?

Yunzhou has Yue State in front and Wei State behind it, so how could there be an enemy attack?

The messenger explained: "The enemy is coming from the direction of Yue State, and will soon be at the gates of the city!"

Lu Yun was almost sober now and asked, "How many people are here?"

The messenger said: "The vanguard force has about a thousand people..."

As a military strategist, Lu Yun quickly guessed the other party's purpose.

The Xia State was being attacked on two fronts by the Wei State and the Chu State, so it must have wanted to disrupt the Wei State's rear through the Yue State, forcing the army to send part of its troops back to defend, in order to relieve the pressure on the front line.

Lu Yun curled his lips. They had a good idea, but unfortunately, they picked the wrong person.

He, Lu Yun, is no pushover!

He picked up the wine jar, took a gulp of the wine, and said, "Pass the order down, the whole army will line up and prepare to go out of the city to meet the enemy!"

Soon, the city gate on the south side of Yunzhou opened, and teams of neatly-lined soldiers poured out of the city and formed neat squares on the open space outside the city gate.

A murderous aura emanated from these ten thousand soldiers.

These auras gathered together, forming an unstoppable "momentum" that quickly spread out in all directions. In the forests ten miles away, birds and beasts were startled and scattered...

Lu Yun stood at the front of the crowd, his aura rising rapidly, and soon he rose from the early stage of the fifth realm of military strategists to the peak of the fifth realm, and was only one step away from the sixth realm.

Among all the schools, the individual strength of the military strategists is not the strongest, but they are the best at utilizing the advantage of numbers.

Five hundred strictly trained soldiers can even kill five times their number of warriors of the same level.

The 10,000 soldiers behind him made Lu Yun's aura finally break through to an extremely powerful level. At this moment, even if facing a semi-saint, he had the strength to fight.

He couldn't help but let out a long roar toward the sky, his roar filled with pleasure.

He was already dissatisfied with being stationed in Yunzhou, so he let these blind guys from Yue State feel his anger!

It was at this moment that a dazzling light appeared in Lu Yun's eyes and in the eyes of tens of thousands of Yunzhou defenders.

The ray of light was about a hundred feet long, like a sharp sword, splitting the entire sky in half.

The next moment, Lu Yun realized that it was really a sword light!

The sword light was extremely fast, and almost the next moment when everyone saw it, it collided with the military force that they had gathered with great difficulty.

There seemed to be a muffled sound in the void.

puff!

puff!

puff!

…

The military force formed by tens of thousands of people collapsed in an instant, with countless sounds of vomiting blood.

Lu Yun spat out a mouthful of blood, and the aura that had risen with great difficulty began to decline rapidly. Within a very short period of time, it dropped back to the early stage of the fifth realm, and his aura was extremely weak.

Most of the 10,000 defenders behind him fell.

Anyone whose strength was below the third level would faint instantly.

The captains and generals of the third and fourth realms also had blood gushing out of their mouths, and their breath was so weak that they could not even stand steadily.

Not far away, Bai Yu looked at the white-haired old man who put the sword back behind his back and swallowed secretly.

Is this the peak of Semi-Saint?

With one strike, 10,000 soldiers lost their ability to fight. There was no need to formulate any tactics, use any strategies, or deploy troops. Just one strike would do. If that didn't work, then another strike would do...

The enemy does not have a semi-saint of the sixth realm, more than 50,000 soldiers, or more than 10,000 elite soldiers. It is simply impossible to resist a peak semi-saint!

Just as the fifty thousand White Tiger Army entered the wide-open gates of Yunzhou City...

Chu State.

Tianzhou.

On top of the city gate, a general defending the city looked at three figures floating in the air without concealing their auras, with an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

He, a mere fifth-level military strategist, led five thousand old and weak soldiers to resist an army of fifty thousand led by three semi-saints...

He raised his hands, knelt down, and shouted, "Open the city gate!"
