Tongtian shrank, and Sanxiao followed in the footsteps of their eldest brother Zhao Gongming. The quasi-sage Kong Xuan was nowhere to be found. A seemingly dejected and depressing atmosphere filled the sky above the entire Chaoge army.
Wen Zhong is not afraid of serious battles. He has been in the army for so many years, what kind of changes in the battlefield have he not seen?
But the situation facing the Shang Dynasty now is not a war at all. The postures put forward by the armies on both sides are actually all pretense. In the past, it was possible to balance or gain overall advantage through the advantages in the battle formation, but
Now it is unrealistic.
The three saints fought fiercely, but in the end they were confused by a phantom falling from the sky. Wen Zhong didn't know who the phantom was, but it was obvious that the three saints called "teacher" in unison.
When Tongtian left, his instructions to all the Jiejiao disciples were very clear. Let them do their best, and if it doesn't work, don't force it. In other words, Tongtian stated that there would be no more direct help, and all the rest
It all depends on the disciples.
It is right to rely on disciples, and Jie Jiao and others are not in vain. But the current situation is that Jie Jiao relies on disciples, while Renyan and Renchen sects rely on saints!
Look at how a sword beam forced Kong Xuan back, causing the battle to conquer the West to end without any problem. Now Sanxiao, who had already stabilized the victory, was inexplicably sent to the list of gods by the saint's teacher. The remaining Kong Xuan didn't know the reason.
He has disappeared. This series of facts has proven that the saints of the two religions will not care about it. Once the disciples of the two religions cannot defeat them, the saints will take action directly and bully you. What's wrong?
Wen Zhong also understood Tongtian's difficulties. After all, the attitude of the previous saint teacher's appearance was obvious. Tongtian was helpless. But the civil war in the Shang Dynasty and the struggle for the luck of the Jiejiao orthodoxy left Wenzhong unable to see even the slightest hope.
.
With Kong Xuan's departure, the only high-end power left in Wen Zhong's hands was gone. Facing the Zhou Dynasty army with Lu Ya in charge, the outcome was actually clear.
I am not reconciled either.
None of the Jiejiao disciples, including Wen Zhong, cared about the political power of the Shang Dynasty, let alone King Shou who was sitting in Chaoge Imperial City and still played the flute every night. What they cared about was the power of this huge empire.
The fortune brought by it, and the foundation of Jiejiao Taoism that these huge fortunes can bless.
The world is difficult, and each creature has its destiny. This is the ultimate principle of heaven. What should you do once it is your turn to be in bad luck? Grit your teeth and fight to the death? This is not cost-effective. Therefore, luck is the key. Because you have Qi
With the blessing of luck, when your own misfortune comes, there will always be a turning point and help in times of need, so that you will not escape a narrow escape.
This is the foundation for the sect to maintain and unite the monks. Once the foundation of the sect's destiny begins to be illusory or damaged, the greatest thoughts and hopes of the disciples within the sect will become uncertain. This is true for every disciple.
It is a major event that is closely related to everyone regardless of their level of cultivation.
So we have to fight! We have to fight!
Standing on the archery tower at Bishui Pass, Wen Zhong looked far away. The long canyon was now filled with tents. This was not the camping location that the siege team should choose in a normal war, because the steep mountain walls on both sides limited the space.
, once there is a fire attack, the camp will be burned down. But now the Zhou Dynasty has done this, and there is no worry about the defender setting fire.
Now that the huge advantage at the monk level has come to the Zhou Dynasty, who will worry about ordinary means such as fire attacks? Who can do mischief under Lu Ya's spiritual will? Even in the eyes of the Zhou Dynasty's sergeants, the majestic Si in front
Shuiguan is just a piece of paper garbage, and the monks can collapse it with a few earthquakes.
The reason why he camped in the valley and did not choose to continue the attack was Jiang Ziya's consideration. What he now needs to consider is not only winning the Shang Dynasty civil war, but also considering minimizing the consumption of Zhou Dynasty soldiers and giving Chao Ge as much as possible.
The soldiers used pressure and needed time to publicize the battle report that they defeated Wen Zhong in front of Sishui Pass and forced him to retreat to the pass, so as to gain more support from the princes.
With the overall advantage, Jiang Ziya felt that he was fully capable and qualified to play something other than the battlefield. This was also some of his calculations that he felt that he could defeat the Shang Dynasty more quickly and lay the foundation for the rule of the Zhou Dynasty at the same time.
Sishui Pass and Xiongguan are still the same, but morale has dropped uncontrollably to the bottom.
"Junior brother, what are your thoughts on this battle?" Wen Zhong asked Shen Gongbao for his opinion on the battle formation for the first time, because in his mind he already felt that the situation had reached a dead end.
But Shen Gongbao is not omnipotent, and Kong Xuan's departure made him deeply surprised. But he felt that Kong Xuan was not a timid person, and there must be other reasons for his departure. But now he can't find any.
By the time he was able to enter Kong Xuan, he could suppress his friends who were powerful monks like Lu Ya in the Zhou Dynasty army on the opposite side.
"Brother, with all due respect, this battle has been fought so far. There is actually no choice left. The power is highly unbalanced, and relying solely on the strength of the soldiers is no longer useful. It is better to fight and retreat, and waste some time. Maybe
There can be a turning point."
"Turnaround?" Wen Zhongmeng turned around and looked at E Shen Gongbao beside him. He was also frustrated just now, and his mood was a little broken, so he subconsciously asked Shen Gongbao. But he didn't want Shen Gongbao to suddenly pop up with the word "turnaround".
Knowing that even his Tongtian Master could no longer solve this situation, where did Shen Gongbao see the turning point?
Shen Gongbao shook his head, not knowing how to explain or whether he could explain it.
Kong Xuan's departure was full of doubts. He instinctively thought of what Kong Xuan had said to him about there being a chess game outside the chess game. He felt that it must have something to do with the outside game. And he knew that even if Tongtian Cult Master
They were all forced to be held hostage, but the person who arranged the outside situation would not just watch the Jie Jiao disappear. This is the source of the confidence in his word "turnaround", although it is not strong.
Hearing that Zhongjian Shen Gongbao didn't know how to explain, his heart skipped a beat. Doesn't this mean that Shen Gongbao didn't just talk nonsense but did see some turning points? It's just that he couldn't talk to him.
"Junior brother, I won't ask any more questions. According to your words, are you sure you can wait until the turning point comes?"
"Brother, I am just guessing about the turning point. Although it should happen, I don't know when it will be. So, you are the coach, so you should make plans in advance."
Wen Zhong knew this. His eyes instantly glowed with new fighting spirit from the previous defeat. He believed in Shen Gongbao and believed that he would not lose in such an unexplained and aggrieved way. He wanted to delay the whole Jiejiao further.
Some time ago, there was a slight turning point as Shen Gongbao said.
Of course, even if the situation still couldn't be changed in the end, Wen Zhong wouldn't blame anyone. He was just on the list of gods, how bad could he be?
