Yunzhou

"This is a map of the human territory of Yunzhou. The human territory of the entire Yunzhou is oval in shape, long from east to west and narrow from north to south. It borders Hezhou in the northwest, forming a long and narrow corridor, and is surrounded by wilderness on the rest of the sides.

This kind of terrain is very advantageous for an internal war among the human race. Even if the enemy is on a flying boat, it will be difficult for them to attack from other directions, and it will definitely attract the attention of the monster race.

But if we go to war with the monster race, we will be very passive. Our battle line is too long, and it is not enough to defend across the board. It is easy for the monster race to break through from one point to another."

"I hope the monster race does not have such talents who can formulate tactics."

"Don't pin your hopes on the stupidity of the enemy. The overall IQ of the monster race is not as good as that of the human race, but some monsters have high IQs. This time the Demon God Temple is going all out, and there will definitely be some monsters acting as military advisors."

Lin Jiang said directly. After he arranged the affairs of the Wangxian Sect, he came directly to Yunzhou to help, because his elder sister and younger sister were here.

"Brother, what's the news from Xiao Sha Diao?"

"A letter came a few days ago. Xiao Sha Diao's daughter became the demon queen. The status of the Peng bird clan in the demon clan has risen sharply. Xiao Sha Diao is seeking the position of a messenger. He doesn't want to go to the battlefield."

Lin Jiang said. Xiao Sha Diao's letter was very long and gave Lin Jiang a lot of information, such as Xia Qingshan appeared in the demon clan and Lin Fanghua became the demon queen. He didn't want to fight with the human race, so he chose to be a messenger and pass on the news.

"Xiao Sha Diao is a fifth-level demon king and the backbone of the demon clan. Can he be a messenger? Otherwise, let Xiao Sha Diao be the commander of one side and let him fight Yunzhou to let him go?"

"It's almost impossible. In addition to their own strength, the status of the demon clan is also very important. The strength of the clan. The number of Aurora Falcons in the demon clan is very small, and they cannot form a scale. He can't control the army. Being a messenger is the best result for him, otherwise he will become cannon fodder."

Lin Jiang shook his head. He also wanted Xiao Sha Diao to bring a team of people to Yunzhou, which would be like delivering food to Yunzhou.

"Then we can only fight. At present, the monster tribe's attack direction is still the eastern part of Yunzhou. The monster tribe in other directions is too weak."

"That's basically it. Yunzhou now has two things to do. One is to actively deploy defenses in the east, especially in the northeast. The main forces of the three families must move in. The second is to gather the power of the entire Yunzhou."

Lin Jiang said. There are only three major forces in the entire Yunzhou, namely the Five Elements Sect, the Zhongxing Sect and the Lin family, but there are more than a dozen medium-sized forces and countless small forces.

A few hundred years ago, Yunzhou won a tragic victory in Qingzhou, and almost all the masters died. Almost all of these small and medium forces betrayed. After hundreds of years of recuperation, the three sects have restored their strength and re-suppressed these small and medium forces, and even cleaned up some of them, but the estrangement and contradictions already exist. If we don't think of a way, they may not be willing to work hard, and relying on the power of the three families is definitely not enough.

“They have no say now. The invasion of the demon race is related to the safety of the entire human race and the entire Yunzhou. If they don’t contribute, don’t blame us for killing them. Ancestor Shi, Sister Cao Ying, what do you think?”

“It’s okay for my Zhongxing Sect to fight to the death, but if we fight to the death and someone else reaps the benefits, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“It’s the same with my Five Elements Sect. I don’t have many years to live anyway, so I don’t mind taking a few people with me,”

said Shi Yuntang. He did not choose to possess another body and rebuild, but used other methods to reassemble his body. His life span was not much, at least not comparable to these juniors.

"Since the three families have made the decision, it will be easy. All the families and sects in Yunzhou must contribute manpower and money according to their strength. Whoever dares to disobey will be destroyed first. Since you are doing things in a domineering way, you must be domineering to the end. Break up their forces and reorganize them to act together with the three families. Formulate strict military laws. Whoever dares to disobey can be exterminated at most."

Lin Jiang put forward an opinion. Now is not the time to be soft-hearted. The status of the three families is the overlords of Yunzhou, the local emperors of Yunzhou. They have the final say on the life and death of Yunzhou.

"Don't let go of the independent cultivators. If it's hard to force them, then lure them with benefits. Land, spiritual stones, elixirs, skills, secret techniques, weapons, each family should gather a batch and use it as a reward."

"Pay attention to fighting to support fighting. All the three families' elixir, talisman, weapon and formation masters should be assembled. These people should not go to the battlefield casually. The hunted monsters should be dealt with as soon as possible..."

The senior leaders were discussing. Everyone present had no experience in large-scale battles with the monsters. They relied on their own experience and wisdom to formulate strategies. Whether they would be useful or not would depend on actual combat.

·······

The north of the Yunzhong Mountains is very different from more than a thousand years ago. Many towns of the human race have appeared here. The Five Elements Sect and the Zhongxing Sect have branches here, and a large number of spiritual fields and mines have been opened up.

Following the footsteps of the big forces, many small forces have also gained a foothold here. With the reproduction of generations, this place seems to have become a paradise on earth.

However, the center of Yunzhou is still in the south of Yunzhong Mountain Gate. The strongest force behind it is called Yunyang Sect, which was split from Yunjian Sect.

After the Qingzhou War, Yunjian Sect failed to continue its inheritance. A civil strife caused Yunjian Sect to decline completely. After the civil strife, Yunjian Sect was divided into three sects. Some people continued to use the name of Yunjian Sect and were still in Yunjian Sect's territory, while some people left the sect.

These people formed two sects, one called Tianjian Sect, which was east of Yunjian Sect and took away a lot of Yunjian Sect's territory, became a vassal, and established its own sect.

Another sect crossed the Yunzhong Mountains and established Yunyang Sect in the north. Yunyang Sect took away all the territory of Yunjian Sect in the north of Yunzhong Mountains, and developed rapidly on this basis. In a few hundred years, it had tens of thousands of disciples and was quite powerful.

"Grandmaster Cao"

Yunyang Sect's incarnation was very happy to see Cao Ying coming, and immediately went to pay his respects.

The relationship between Yunyang Sect and Zhongxing Sect was still very good. After all, Yunyang Sect's predecessor was also Yunjian Sect. Although Cao Ying kicked Yunjian Sect out of Yunzhong City, he did not confiscate their property in Yunzhong City, which gave Yunyang Sect strong financial support in the early days of its business.

"What is the situation now?"

"The demons in Yunzhou are not strong. There are no seventh-level demons. At most, they are only sixth-level. Now the demons are very restless and have gathered. I expect they are waiting for the seventh-level demons from the Demon God Temple to come and take charge."

"Yunzhou is located in a remote corner, far away from Zhongzhou. It must not be the main attack direction of the demons. You can rest assured."

Cao Ying said. According to the information they have inquired, the main force of the demons is in Bingzhou at this time. If they want to break through Bingzhou and enter Zhongzhou, Yunzhou is too remote and is definitely not the main attack direction.

"If so, it couldn't be better. Just the demons in Yunzhou make my scalp numb. If they come again, we really can't resist them."

"Even if it is not the main attack direction, you must be prepared. I will lend you a flying boat and try to take away all the disciples and mortals who can be taken away and take them to the south."

"Ancestor Cao, this, this..."

Yunyang Sect's face changed. The foundation of Yunyang Sect for hundreds of years is all here. If they withdraw, they will have to start all over again. Their losses will be too great.

"I won't force you to make a decision. I can withdraw the flying boat now. If a fight really breaks out, there will be no more. At that time, it will definitely be used to transport troops and combat supplies."

"I know, Patriarch Cao, can you build a teleportation array from Yunyang Sect to Yunzhong City?"

"Yes, but you have to pay for it yourself. I can send the array master of Zhongxing Sect to help you."

Cao Ying nodded. This can be agreed. If the situation in the north is unfavorable, it can also be used to evacuate troops.

"Report, Master, the envoy of Zhongzhou Danxia Sect has arrived at the mountain gate. The great elder asked the master to return to the sect to discuss matters."

While the two were discussing, a disciple of Zhongxing Sect came to report.

"It should be discussing the war of the entire cultivation world against the demon race. Go back and take a look."

Lin Jiang said on the side. He also followed Cao Ying to the front line to inspect.

"Okay, let's go back."

"Grandmaster Cao, we..."

"Yunzhou's reinforcements will arrive within two days, but Yunzhou's top leaders have decided that they will only snipe the demon tribe in the north, and will not fight to the death in the north. Be prepared yourself."

Cao Ying said directly to the Yunyang Sect's Huashen. Yunzhou has many interests in the north and will not give up easily, so they will send troops to block and try to take away the property. Fighting to the death is impossible. If Yunyang Sect wants to die, no one will stop it.

Cao Ying and his party quickly returned to the mountain gate of Zhongxing Sect, and an envoy from Danxia Sect was already waiting.

"Greetings, Patriarch Cao."

"No need to be polite. What does the Danxia

Sect have to say?" "Reporting to Patriarch Cao, the demons have been at war with the human race. Most of the wild strongholds in the eastern part of the Xiuxian world have fallen. The human race is in danger. I am here on the orders of Patriarch Hedao of the Danxia Sect to contact fellow Taoists in Yunzhou. I want to..."

The envoys of the Danxia Sect said one by one that the demons were too aggressive and the human race suffered a loss in the first contact. Now Zhongzhou has decided to mobilize on a large scale, but Zhongzhou is not stupid and will not let itself decline because of a war.

Therefore, Zhongzhou recommended the Danxia Sect as the leader and let the Danxia Sect come forward to gather the power of the entire human race to deal with the demons together. If they are going to decline, they will decline together.

This time, the envoys of the Danxia Sect wanted Yunzhou to join this human alliance and give Cao Ying the position of an elder.

"Go back and tell the Danxia Sect that Yunzhou is willing to join the Immortal Alliance."

Cao Ying thought about it. Yunzhou could not resist such a large-scale beast tide, so it was okay to join the alliance. The Danxia Sect named the human alliance the Immortal Alliance.

"That's great, ancestor Cao is righteous..."

The Danxia Sect envoy immediately flattered Cao Ying, and then put forward the first request, wanting Yunzhou to attack the demon clan from

the side and provide support for the main battlefield. Cao Ying has been the leader of the sect for many years, so he is naturally not stupid. He promised the Danxia Sect envoy. After agreeing, he immediately put forward his own request, using Yunzhou's weakness as an excuse to ask the Immortal Alliance to provide resources. It is simply a dream to want to fool people without money.

The envoy was in a dilemma. The Immortal Alliance was a loose alliance with no property under its name. Where would the resources come from to give Yunzhou? He hesitated and didn't dare to agree.

Cao Ying didn't make it difficult for him. He expressed his understanding of the difficulties of the Immortal Alliance, asked him to go back and ask the higher-ups, and sent the man away.

"Xiaoying has already shown the demeanor of a master,"

Lin Jiang sighed. He was still afraid that Cao Ying would be cheated. It seems that the little girl back then has now grown into a master.
