Under the gaze of all people.
The Shenji Camp displayed three miracles, which immediately shocked the people of Yunzhou.
They have always had the custom of believing in gods, and now they have seen it with their own eyes.
In a short period of time, the people's thoughts also underwent subtle changes.
"Oh my God, is this Lin Che really destined by heaven? Even the heavens have bestowed a miracle upon him."
"Maybe we saw it wrong. Some powerful warriors can also unleash thunderous sounds..."
"We are warriors too. Is this someone performing a secret technique? How could we not see it? That was thunder roaring in the sky. His war drum, it was clearly an ordinary object at first, and then it suddenly became so huge that it required several people to carry it together."
"It's not just the drums, there are also horns. Listen to the sound of the horns, it's clearly the sound of a god descending to earth. With so many soldiers in the Divine Machine Battalion, how is it possible that every weapon can burn with flames? Everyone's cultivation method is different."
"Could it be that he is really a god who has descended to earth? If we rebel against the gods, we will die miserably."
"It has nothing to do with me. I've always hated the royal family. Humph, the Divine Machine Battalion specializes in killing corrupt officials. Well done! This is the savior sent from heaven!"
This idea was spread very subtly, but Wen Hong caught it at once.
He immediately ordered: "The opportunity for war has arrived! We don't need to keep the entire army defending Yunzhou. Divide the troops into three groups! One group will defend Yunzhou, one will attack Suzhou, and one will attack Weizhou."
The staff officer didn't understand and asked, "General, our troops are not strong enough to stay behind and fight two battles at the same time..."
Wen Hong's combat experience is absolutely second to none. He said quickly:
"We're not really fighting to the death. The Shenji Battalion is marching towards Yingzhou. Once the Yanyun kings hear the news, they'll surely surround them. We'll feint an attack on Suzhou and Weizhou. Then their forces won't dare to come to support them, and they'll have to hold their ground."
When the staff officers and deputy generals heard this, they immediately felt that it made sense.
The reason they were stationed in Yunzhou before was because they were worried that the people would take the opportunity to riot and rebel, thus cutting off their retreat.
Now that the people's mentality has changed, there will be an opportunity for war.
"I obey your command!"
Wen Hong nodded to his subordinates, and suddenly thought of something and immediately went to find Taoist Zhouxu.
At this moment, Taoist Zhouxu was in the backyard, instructing Wen Wuyang in his cultivation.
"Master Zhouxu, I have something to ask of you..."
…
Yingzhou border.
Troops from all directions came and finally joined Shi Chongguang's army.
"Report, Your Majesty! Eight thousand strong and brave men have arrived from Yingzhou's Xinwu City, claiming to be seeking refuge with Your Majesty. Together we will slay the Shenji Camp."
Shi Chongguang chuckled when he heard this, sat in the main tent, picked up the brush himself, and wrote another number on the back: eight thousand.
"Great! We absolutely cannot treat people like these who are willing to serve their country unfairly. They will be placed under the command of the right wing."
A deputy general immediately congratulated him, "Your Majesty, with the arrival of these eight thousand troops, we now possess a full five hundred thousand men. Haha, that's over ten times the strength of the Divine Machine Battalion! Looking across the entire Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, only Your Majesty has commanded an army of five hundred thousand!"
"That's right. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. This battle will surely make you famous throughout the world!"
"With your Majesty's extraordinary talent, even with a million troops, let alone a mere 500,000, you would still be able to command the troops with divine skill and plan strategically."
Amidst the congratulations, the old man of the Qiao family, who was standing by, spoke worriedly:
"Your Majesty, we now have an army of 500,000. Many of them are civilians, not even first-rank warriors. They have never been on the battlefield. I'm afraid that such a mixed bag of good and bad people will affect your command."
The deputy general next to him couldn't stand it anymore. He thought that the people from the Qiao family had to have made some contribution before they were qualified to stand here and listen.
But unfortunately, I still have to come up with ideas.
If this isn't getting carried away, then what is it then showing off?
"Hmph, old dog Qiao. Do you know how to command troops? You're nothing more than a lackey sent by the Yin-Yang family to provide support. I'm letting you stand here to give face to the Yin Master. Stop disrupting the morale of our army!"
Old Man Qiao's face turned cold. How could he possibly accept this? If he endured it this time, would he still have a place to stand in the future?
"I'll discuss the matter objectively. How can you say they're disrupting the army's morale? The Shenji Battalion was able to take over Yunzhou, kill Lin Pojun before you arrived, and leave with such a swagger. Do you think they're made of mud?"
"Although I'm a warrior, I have a question for you all. Who will take care of the food, drink, and toilets of these people who have come to seek refuge? They can probably get by for two days, but what if it takes a month or half a year?"
"If the king gives the order, the battlefield will be in chaos. Will they be able to understand the sound of war drums? Will they be as brave and fearless as the king's personal soldiers?"
A deputy general was so angry that his face turned red and he slammed the table and stood up.
"How dare you! You bastard! You're trying to boost the morale of others while destroying your own prestige. What are your intentions? My king, I ask you to make the final decision on this matter!"
Shi Chongguang also had a particularly sour face, and he glanced at Old Man Qiao coldly.
"Do you also think that I am unworthy of commanding an army of 500,000?"
"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. I just think that quality is the most important thing in a good army..."
"Hmph!" Shi Chongguang snorted coldly. "My army is fighting on the front lines. Doesn't it need manpower for logistics and food supplies? Will I also need the support of my trusted confidants after I take over Yunzhou?"
"After this battle, these 500,000-strong army will truly belong to me. They will obey my command."
"I know you don't understand this. I might as well tell you this is a plain. My 500,000-man army has been divided into three groups and has already formed a siege. We are just waiting for the Shenji Battalion to fall into our trap."
"I won't underestimate the Divine Machine Battalion, but I won't underestimate my 500,000-man army either. When the Divine Machine Battalion is surrounded by enemies on three sides, their combat effectiveness will naturally decline. Even if Lin Che truly possesses supernatural powers, how would he know which direction our main force lies?"
As Shi Chongguang spoke, a hint of cruelty suddenly flashed in his eyes.
A punch hit Old Man Joe in the stomach.
BANG!!
A powerful true energy rushed out from Old Man Qiao's back, bringing up a cloud of blood.
Old Man Qiao fell to the ground with a thud, his face distorted and full of disbelief.
"Hmph. You're a running dog. I gave you a bone and you want to get on the table?"
"Someone—drag him out. Behead him in public!!"
Immediately, several guards came up, held down the fallen Old Man Joe, and dragged him out.
As soon as I walked out of the door, I heard a "puff" sound and the smell of blood instantly rushed into the tent.
Shi Chongguang smiled at the deputy general he had just argued with, as if nothing had happened.
"Haha. Deputy General Xiao, don't let this grasshopper affect our friendship. This time, we need your help to deal with the Shenji Camp."
"Don't worry, my king! I've already received the Vulcan God's ultimate weapon. If Lin Che dares to come, I'll make sure he never returns!"
