"Waste, step back and let me do it!"
The Great Elder pulled the eldest brother who was about to be shot over with one hand, then waved his hand towards the sky, and all the rain of arrows in the sky were wiped out.
"S!"
The defenders of Yangcheng on the city wall took a deep breath. They thought Yangcheng might not be so lucky this time.
"Die!"
The great elder pulled his disciple away and rushed directly to the city gate. The immortal power in his hand condensed into a vortex, which spun faster and faster, and then shot directly towards the city gate.
"Spiritual skills!"
The Wu clan nobles stationed on the city wall shouted and then jumped down directly from the wall. Spiritual skills are very rare in the God-Forsaken Continent, but now they appear here.
"This should be the Lingyun Sect's inherited spiritual skill, the Wind Dazzling Technique."
A warrior who was wearing full armor looked at the elder solemnly and said.
At this time, the gate of Yangcheng had been destroyed, and the entire Yangcheng had no way to fight against the Lingyun Sect army in front of them, either in terms of high-end spiritual units or military strength.
"Haha, youngster, why don't you surrender?"
The Great Elder was very happy. He had underestimated the strength of Yangcheng last time. This time, a consensus had been reached with the neighboring countries, so he could launch an all-out attack.
If we use all our national strength, there will be no suspense in this war.
"We in Yangcheng are willing to accept the takeover by Lingyun Sect!"
A fat man in gorgeous clothes ran out. It was obvious that he was the monarch of Yangcheng. Now that the city gates were open, there was no suspense at all. It would be better to surrender directly.
"Alright! Let's go into the city first."
·····
In the city-state closest to Shangyang City in the Luonan area controlled by the Yan State, Duan Tianming has already settled the troops that came for this expedition. This time, he basically brought most of the elite soldiers that the Yan State can currently control, all of the Xianzhen Camp, 3k of the 5,000 trained Danyang soldiers, 1k archers from the elves, and 8k soldiers from various participating countries of the federation.
Cancheng is the city-state closest to Shangyangcheng in Luonan. At this time, many tents have been set up on the flat ground outside the city.
It’s not that people can’t live in the city, but it’s mainly because there is not enough space for such a large population. The scale of Cancheng is not large, and it is impossible to accommodate more than 10,000 soldiers.
Moreover, Yan State's Xianzhen Camp and Danyang Army are both suitable for frontal attacks. Otherwise, their military spirit will not be able to be exerted, so there is no need for them to be stationed in the city.
···
"King, people from the State of Jin are here."
During the battle, a soldier came to report.
"As expected, he has arrived. Let's arrange a meeting."
Duan Tianming took a bite of the apple that had just been grown by Shenqi Kingdom, and then walked into the big tent.
The big tent was already full of people, and the purpose of their coming was very clear.
"Flame King!"
As soon as Duan Tianming entered, the envoys from major countries saluted him respectfully.
Ever since Duan Tianming took control of and integrated the entire Luonan, his power is still very influential in the surrounding areas.
"good!"
Duan Tianming said this and sat directly on the main seat. Now that he came here, anyone with a discerning eye would understand his purpose.
"We came here specially with some gifts."
As he spoke, the messenger arranged for someone to bring in a box of gifts, which seemed to be quite a lot.
Duan Tianming didn't take much notice of the gifts. He just kept on greeting the envoy without getting to the point.
Finally, the messenger couldn't help it:
"Yan Wang, we came here mainly to discuss joining the Luonan Alliance. After our monarch returned and carefully considered it, he still believes that joining the Luonan Alliance is the best option."
···
There was a sudden stagnation in the scene. Duan Tianming didn't say anything, but just looked at him with a smile.
"Flame King, we are here with great sincerity. We hope you can express your opinion..."
The messenger tried hard to explain, and Duan Tianming just kept drinking cup of tea.
Originally, Duan Tianming left these countries behind to serve as a lubricant between Yan State and Lingyun State. Unexpectedly, Lingyun State was so impatient that it started to provoke the Luonan Federation just a few months after its establishment.
"Do you think we're fools? When we originally invited you to participate, we made it very clear that if you didn't join, we wouldn't be responsible for any problems. Now that you're in danger, you come to us for help!"
Zhang Yun next to him started to act as a mouthpiece, and with a few words he made the messenger unable to raise his head.
"Alright, we need to consider this. The messenger should rest and wait for news."
Duan Tianming explained that they still needed to discuss what to do.
The original rhythm was to follow Zhao Yuqing to advance, but now a country came to provoke before it had even developed for a few months, which directly disrupted the original rhythm of Yan State.
"King, I don't think there's any need for help. Our Yan Nation is very short of population right now. If we can relocate the populations of these large nations to the core area, then the population we can directly control will be more than enough."
Zhang Yun next to him quickly suggested.
"Indeed, we now have a reason to launch our expedition. We just need to observe the situation from the sidelines, and then repel Lingyun Nation. We can completely relocate these hundreds of thousands of people to the surrounding areas and directly control them. Then we will have a reasonable reason to relocate the population."
Luo Wu also said.
"That's good, but I'm afraid these countries have absolutely no power to resist and will definitely surrender directly. When Lingyun Nation unites the forces of several other countries to counterattack us, it might be a bit difficult and the cost would be quite high."
Li Fei said with some concern.
This is indeed a weakness of the plan to directly annex the country. Now the soldiers of Lingyun Country are resting in Yangcheng, and the distance between the two armies is only a few hundred kilometers. If they really unite at that time, it will be a trouble.
This trouble does not refer to the war. Although the great elder is said to be very powerful, when put into a battle against an army of tens of thousands, even with the blessing of the military spirit, he can't cause any waves at all.
Duan Tianming has fought against spiritual races several times in the past few years, and has gained a better understanding of the combat situations of these races. Although level four can be said to be the watershed of the strength of spiritual units, Duan Tianming really has no fear of the immortals who have been in the God-forsaken Continent for a long time and have no racial heritage.
The only thing the entire Lingyun Sect can show off is the Wind Dazzling Technique. If this is used on a spiritual power unit with racial inheritance, let alone the Wind Dazzling Technique, Fire Dazzling Technique, Thunder Dazzling Technique, and Tornado Technique, all of these can be unlocked in the racial inheritance.
This is just like a modern man holding an alloy knife fighting against a strong primitive man holding a wooden stick. As long as the gap in strength is not too big, the increase in strength brought about by technological advancement is very considerable.
