Speaking of which, the Yang Clan Temple has enjoyed sacrifices for dozens of generations, and once even established a grand formation to protect the country.
A large array that can cover the entire country consumes resources that are difficult to measure. If it is not a powerful country, it must at least be "greater than its ancestors".
It's just that the Yang Kingdom's national defense formation was broken several times during the turbulent days in the Eastern Region.
This also shows the tenacity of the Yang family's regime. The national defense formation was broken several times and repaired several times.
However, after Qi State established its current territory and Yang State's position became its bedside, the Yang family's situation became even more embarrassing.
Especially when Yang State later became a vassal state of Qi State, any new king who ascended the throne needed to be canonized by the Qi Emperor to be considered legitimate.
Who is this so-called "National Defense Formation" to guard against? Can Qi State allow such a threat to exist right under its nose?
All these things made everyone in Yang Kingdom very distressed.
The matter was later resolved.
A "very knowledgeable" minister in Yangting suggested that since Qi and Yang are originally one body, why not connect Yang's national defense formation with Qi's?
Sharing weal and woe and sharing blessings in this way is not the way to long-term peace and stability.
The specific process is unknown, but the resolution was later successfully passed.
This is also the reason why Chu Liang, the Chongxuan Emperor, can easily trap Suoyang Kingdom and can directly lead his army to Chiwei County without breaking the "national defense formation" at all.
No matter how weak the Yang State was, it was impossible for the Qi State to completely control their national defense formation. But after the two formations were connected, it was easy for the Qi State to suspend the operation of the Yang State's national defense formation.
In other words, the national defense formation, which consumes so much resources of Yang State, has long been in vain for Qi State.
It is worth mentioning that the minister who suggested that the Yangguo National Defense Formation be integrated with the Qi State and share the power and blessings has now settled in Qi with his family and found a good job in the Qi State.
…
…
"The terrain of Red Tail County is long and narrow, so it is actually named after the Tail of Red Flame."
"Now the end of Yang's regime will be ushered in here. Isn't it God's will?"
The war horses of the Qiu Sha Army are all mixed with monster blood, so even though Chong Xuan Sheng is incredibly heavy, the horses are still light on their feet.
After killing people and breaking the camp in Rizhao County, Chongxuan Chu Liang directly launched his army. Jiang Wang and Chongxuan Sheng came to the army together.
Xiang Xiang returned to Qingyang Town alone.
For him, he was not interested in Qi's meritorious service, but he was interested in protecting Qingyang Town.
Accompanying Jiang Wang to Rizhao County was not only out of support for Jiang Wang, but also out of disgust for Song Guang's rebellious people. Although Qingyang Town has a system, it still needs such a strong person to suppress accidents.
The most important military achievement is military merit.
Chongxuansheng personally went to Rizhao County to negotiate, and killed Song Guang, the governor of Rizhao County, during the banquet. Then he went straight to the military camp and dispersed Rizhao County's 70,000 soldiers on the spot.
Such meritorious deeds gave him a powerful voice in the Qiu Kill Army.
Jiang Wang was arranged to join the camp as an aide and join the army, and no one dared to gossip.
At this time, he was in high spirits, and many generals around him agreed.
Chongxuan Chu Liang also rode a war horse and pushed forward with the mighty and stretching army.
Hearing this, he just said: "Don't underestimate Yang Jiande. The dust has not settled yet. If your troops lose due to contempt, don't blame me for being ruthless in military law!"
Chong Xuan Sheng changed his arrogance and bowed honestly on horseback: "Yes!"
Yang Jiande commanded an army of 210,000, marching from west to east. Chongxuan Chu Liang personally led an army of 100,000 Autumn Killers, marching from east to west. The Qi army also had many auxiliary troops, which, in conjunction with the formation, were trapped in the form of connected nodes.
The entire Yang Kingdom, but they will not participate in the decisive battle.
The situation of the entire Yang Kingdom is that the Qi army is like a huge cage trapping the Yang Kingdom, and the Qiu Sha army is like the iron lock of the cage.
Yang Jiande's army wanted to break this lock head on.
It's not difficult to escape from either side of the cage, but it makes no sense.
The march of Chongxuan Chu Liang was like a hand reaching out from outside the cage to catch the prey in the cage.
The two sides have a duel, either Chongxuan Chu Liang will catch the prey and return home with a full load, or Yang Jiande will break the hand and break the cage.
Akao County was the battlefield chosen by both sides.
However, the same thing is that both sides are cautious in their advance.
On the surface, they all have their own reasons.
Yang State's armaments have been lax for a long time, and Yang Jiande has also decentralized power for many years. Now he has regained military and political power through a series of actions such as killing the prince. Not to mention administrative matters, he needs to re-familiarize himself with and control the army through a slow march.
It may be said that he is cautious, or he may be sharpening his weapons in battle.
The Yang State could not afford to delay, so Yang Jiande sent his troops out of Hengyang County. However, when he could not afford to delay, before the decisive battle, he forced the delay. This especially shows his military strategy.
Chongxuan Sheng would not fail to understand this, and Chongxuan Chu Liang was not as lacking in self-confidence as his words suggested. Their dialogue was just to suppress the arrogance in the army.
The Qiu Sha Army was originally one of the Nine Soldiers of Qi and had long enjoyed a high reputation. It was impossible to regard the Yang Army as an opponent of the same level. Especially when Zhong Xuan Sheng dispersed the 70,000 soldiers stationed in Rizhao County without even bringing a single soldier.
Soldiers, especially the Qiu Sha Army, became disdainful of the Yang Army.
It's just that due to the strictness of Chongxuan and Chu Liang in running the army, they didn't dare to expose themselves too much.
In the entire army, only Chongxuan Sheng could show his arrogance due to his great achievements, and he was just in time to give Chongxuan and Chu Liang a beating to correct the attitude of the army.
The progress of the Autumn Killing Army was slow, because Chu Liang changed his military style this time due to Chongxuan.
The entire army almost destroyed the city along the way, swept away all resistance forces, gathered surrender troops, tested for plague, and crushed them inch by inch.
Step by step, he was completely different from the battles in which he became famous.
And intentionally or unintentionally, in the gradually compressing and shrinking space between the two armies... some kind of change is taking place.
The Holy Master of the White Bone Path who came from Zhuang Kingdom is still frantically absorbing the plague.
In the forest clearing, He was floating in mid-air.
Forces, tangible and intangible, from all directions are constantly pouring in here.
The pale white smoke is almost solid, making this place look like some kind of desolate and dangerous place.
Occasionally when the smoke fluctuates greatly, you can clearly see the appearance of the Holy Bone Lord.
He was completely naked, and his body could have been described as thin. It seemed as if something was swimming under his skin, and the clumps of skin and flesh bulged and then flattened, and so on.
Sometimes you can see the bones twisting in strange ways, so much so that the white bones pierce the flesh, only to retract and be covered again.
The body... seems to be mutating and reorganizing in some form.
Only his face remained expressionless as usual. In contrast, it looked particularly ferocious and terrifying.
Moreover, the heaven and the earth are like furnaces, the epidemic qi is like fire, and my body is like elixir.
And in the pale white smoke, there is always a singing voice, which seems to be non-existent, but seems to be intermittent and continuous.
Listen carefully, the song is singing
"Heaven and earth are merciless, no kindness can be found from the king, no kindness from relatives can survive, and kindness from teachers can turn into enemies."
"The five morals are impermanent, and the seven emotions are destroyed! Step on my door of life and death, and wear my black and white scarf."
"Kill my old will and save my old people!"
The survivors of Maplewood City will probably never forget.
It's exactly... The Boneless Song.

ps: The following does not include word count.
It makes me feel very excited when I write this. Unfortunately, there are only a few people who have witnessed this situation with me. I feel a kind of loneliness that my sword has brought all the benefits of the world to me.
Let’s implement an additional update measure. Let’s test the waters next week first.
It not only guides readers' enthusiasm, but also forces me to work harder.
First of all, the leader will add an update, and then it will be fixed.
Then the most important thing about novels is subscription, which is related to whether the editor gives recommendations and various website resources. (Rant: Why am I still running naked! My abdominal muscles are all exposed!)
The website doesn’t really recommend new authors, so I’m asking you all to recommend them so that more people can know about them.
As of now, the average order is 321.
If you can add 100 to the order next week, we will add one update. If you add 200, it will be two updates. There is no upper limit!
Then there are the recommended votes. This week’s recommended votes are 1755.
Then next week, on this basis, if I can add a thousand recommendation votes, I will add another chapter. Let’s cap this with three chapters. (Don’t swipe votes, false prosperity is boring. I want real readers’ votes. That’s the answer.
There is a real sense of power.)
This week's monthly vote is 124. On this basis, for every 100 votes, an additional chapter will be added. This is also capped at three chapters.
I write very slowly, but I will definitely do what I promised, and I will make up for what I owe as soon as possible even if I stay up late. Please feel free to add.
I also want to see how many updates I can add next week and how aggressive I can be.
That's it, the upper, middle and lower wilds advance in four directions, let's fight next week!
This chapter has been completed!
