Chapter seven hundred and ninety-eight of victory or defeat
Ma Langfei has been taking Chen Qixing in circles for the past three days. He received a letter asking for help from A Qing very early, and later from Song Zuyi, but he did not dare to lead a team to rescue him. If he went,
Chen Qixing will also follow. If tens of thousands of Tianxuan Sect's elites arrive, the situation will worsen even more.
It wasn't until he received the news from Bai Zichen that he quickly led his people to Lingjing Mountain and arrived at the last moment before Bai Zichen evacuated.
Chen Qi
It's even worse here. Except for the people he brought, the rest of the people don't have much fighting spirit anymore, including the Yunxiao Sect, which has been defeated several times.
In fact, the performance of the Yunxiao Sect monks has been extremely impressive. If the rest of the team is defeated once, it will collapse, and it will take a lot of effort to even reunite, let alone fight again in a short period of time.
But they did it, and now their morale is low. That's because too many of the elite core members have died in battle. Without them taking the lead, the remaining people have become discouraged.
Chen Qixing did not attack, and Bai Zichen did not want to cause trouble. The two armies were five miles apart and moved slowly. One day later, Bai Zichen led his team back to the camp of the Nanzhou army, while Chen Qixing stopped at the Yunxiao Sect's battle line.
Make up for the gap breached by Bai Zichen.
The Nanzhou army had already made preparations. As soon as they came back, someone would rescue the wounded and let the monks who had been fighting for a long time rest, etc. The photo stones on their bodies were also taken away to record their military exploits.
Lin Xiao led people to inspect the front line. In order to coordinate this operation, Lin Xiao led more than one million people to attack the opponent's defense line. The two sides fought fiercely for three days and just retreated. This time, the Nanzhou army suffered more than ten casualties.
With tens of thousands of troops, the Yunxiao Sect's front line was almost destroyed, and the casualties were not low. The Yunxiao Sect once again re-examined Nanzhou's combat power.
"Master, Ah Qing's body was not found. He self-destructed and there is nothing left."
"I understand, does Ah Qing have any descendants?"
"Not as far as I know. People who ask Night Owl should know more."
"Well, if there are any, transfer Ah Qing's military exploits to them and treat them well."
Lin Xiao nodded. Not many senior members of the Tiansheng Sect got married and had children. Many of them were alone. Regarding the death of Ah Qing, Lin Xiao felt very complicated. He was not the same as before. The old man's departure brought a lot of trouble to Lin Xiao.
The sadness of laughter is no longer so obvious. Lin Xiao has accepted the reality that life, old age, illness and death are inevitable as long as he does not become an immortal.
"Master, what about the rewards based on merit planned this time? Ah Qing didn't have to die in the first place."
Bai Zichen learned a lot of information from Song Zuyi. This time the plan was full of loopholes, including both strategic and execution errors.
Ma Langfei did not strictly abide by discipline. He should have led his team back immediately after intercepting Tianxuan Zong, but he did not. And Patriarch Dai was not determined in fighting, which directly caused A Qing's death. According to Bai Zichen's character,
All these people must be punished.
“I won’t mention this anymore, it’s inconvenient”
"Head..."
“The overall situation is the most important thing”
Lin Xiao shook his head. Ma Langfei is the ancestor of the Tianyue Sect, and the ancestor Dai is from the Wanjing Sect. They are monks in the Shenxu stage of Qi. If Lin Xiao punishes them, it will definitely make the monks of the two countries feel bad.
This is very detrimental to the overall situation of Nanzhou.
Lin Xiao had to consider the interests of the whole. Besides, although they were wrong, their crimes were not punishable by death. How to punish them was still difficult. Lin Xiao could only suppress the matter and not mention it, so as not to hurt the harmony.
Five days later, all the data of this operation were roughly calculated. This operation dispatched 170,000 people, of which 120,000 were monks from the Nanzhou headquarters. However, less than 70,000 people returned, and more than 40,000 people were directly
died in battle, and nearly 10,000 people were missing. No one knows whether these people died in battle, escaped, were captured, or what happened to them.
Three Shenxu stage monks died in the battle, including the supreme commander Yang Qing, and more than 3,000 seriously injured people were sent back. The losses were not small.
However, the results of the battle were also rich. In this battle, the Nanzhou monks robbed most of the spiritual valleys from the six spiritual mountains, totaling more than 500 million kilograms. The storage bags of the fourth level and above alone contained more than 800 and were burned.
There were at least several hundred million kilograms, and the Immortal Alliance lost a year's harvest equivalent to 200,000 acres of spiritual fields.
In addition, six cities were conquered, three cities were intimidated, the gate of Lingjing Mountain was breached, and the number of monks killed could be counted as 60,000 to 70,000, not counting the enemies killed by the Nanzhou army head-on. It can be said that this
One action caused huge losses to Yunxiao Sect, Tianxiao Sect, and Tianxuan Sect, and their war potential was further depleted.
And it’s not just the Nanzhou army that is taking action. The Immortal League also has similar activities in Kunlun and other places, and the Kunlun sects are also operating in the other sects of the Immortal League. After all, the spiritual valleys of both sides have matured at about the same time.
In less than ten days, billions of kilograms of spiritual grain were taken away or burned. The destructive power of war is evident.
After the statistics are completed, there will be rewards for military exploits and compensation for casualties. These matters have their own dedicated personnel. Let’s not mention them for the time being. Lin Xiao’s eyes once again turned to the entire world of immortality.
··········
In Dongzhou, on the front line of Wanghai City, Penglai's Han Yuncheng was speechless as he looked at the sudden gathering of millions of troops. The maturity time of the spiritual valleys in the entire world of immortality was about the same, and the difference would not be more than a month. Nanzhou was planning against the Immortal Alliance.
At that time, they were also planning the Linggu in Dongzhou.
How could Penglai give Dongzhou fishermen a chance to make a profit and let them open up the spiritual fields on a large scale just to pick peaches? When the spiritual valley matures, the army will advance and recapture the spiritual valley.
Unexpectedly, the five major colleges were extremely cunning. They also anticipated this possibility. When the spiritual valley was about to mature, they mobilized millions of people and pretended to harvest the spiritual valley. But in the blink of an eye, all these people were pushed to the front line of Wanghai City.
It was used to defend Penglai, and their main force in harvesting spiritual valleys became mortals.
It doesn't matter if the mortal labor force is different. It doesn't matter if seven or eight people can support one immortal cultivator. Anyway, there are more mortals. The five major colleges have shown super mobilization ability and control. They recruited tens of millions of mortals in one go to harvest spiritual grains and let Penglai
With nowhere to say anything, he watched helplessly as the five colleges quickly harvested spiritual rice and stored it in warehouses in major cities.
"Lin Yaohui is becoming more and more cunning. In the past, they dealt with monsters and lacked IQ, but now, they have completely changed their thinking."
"There's nothing we can do about it. We can't treat our enemies as fools. We made a mistake this time."
"This year, the five major colleges have harvested at least tens of billions of kilograms of spiritual grain, which can support Central Continent on a large scale. It will be difficult for us to bring them down. The results of Lin Xiao's operation are not worth mentioning compared with those of Dongzhou.
"
"Lin Xiao is a very powerful person, but it's a pity that he doesn't have enough manpower, otherwise the Immortal Alliance really wouldn't be able to fight him."
Han Yuncheng shook his head. It had been more than a year since the war broke out, and the level of the leaders of each sect in the two alliances was undoubtedly evident. It can be said that no one on both sides is a fool. Those who can reach the top are all human elites with extraordinary means.
But in a comparison, Lin Xiao's ability is really at the forefront. He is very capable of capturing fighter planes. Three million troops from South Continent entered Central Continent and killed more than a million enemies. His own losses were less than half of the opponent's.
, and the strategic threat was very strong, and the abilities of the other sect leaders were still weaker than Lin Xiaoyi.
If the entire Five Continents Alliance is left to him to take charge, the results will definitely be better than now. Of course, this is just a statement. It is impossible to do this. Lin Xiao's prestige is not enough to control the Five Continents Alliance, and
Kunlun, Penglai and Wenxian families would not give them this opportunity.
The leaders of the Five Continents Alliance can only come from the three of them. They have to gather the prestige and luck of tens of millions of people to become as strong as the Human Emperor. If Lin Xiao becomes the Human Emperor, what will be the interests of the three sects?
ensure.
"Let's talk about Dongzhou. Now the Immortal Alliance relies on Dongzhou's transportation benefits. If the line to Dongzhou is cut off, the Immortal Alliance may not be able to survive for three years."
"It will only be three years at most. According to Lin Xiao's strategy, if there is no support from Dongzhou, in half a year, their spiritual rice and other bulk materials will be in extreme shortage. We don't even need to create panic, they will panic.
No, the seven sects of the Immortal Alliance can guarantee the expenses, but what about the small sects?
The next harvest of Linggu will take another year, and they won't be able to survive this half year. They will either surrender, fight back desperately, or be defeated by us. It's a pity that Dongzhou refuses to be of one mind with us."
"So, is there any way for Senior Brother Han to win Dongzhou over?"
"It's impossible. The Haoyang Sect is an obstacle that cannot be overcome. The relationship between Yi Mei'er and Lin Xiao is very special. If we give up the Haoyang Sect, I'm afraid Lin Xiaotu will not agree because of his grief. The same is true for other sects.
If the Haoyang Sect cannot give up, the five major colleges will not turn to us. As for supporting them to create a Supreme, it is not a big deal."
Han Yuncheng shook his head. The Haoyang Sect is a die-hard follower of the Five Continents Alliance. Everyone knows this. Once the Haoyang Sect is abandoned, it will be difficult to lead the team. I am afraid that Lin Xiao will be the first one not to agree, and the rest will also be disappointed.
.
The desire of the five major colleges to unify Dongzhou is too strong and they will not give up no matter what. If they don't agree to this condition, Dongzhou will not surrender to them. Don't waste your efforts.
"We can't find the strength to destroy the five major colleges now, otherwise I really want to destroy them."
"Destroying them is worse than destroying the seven sects of the Immortal Alliance. Forget it, the next strategy is to cut off the East China Sea channel between Dongzhou and the Immortal Alliance and force them to use the teleportation array. It can consume a little of their power, so we can't let it go."
Han Yuncheng shook his head. Dongzhou and the Immortal League have a teleportation array connection. However, the cost of a teleportation array is very high. If bulk materials such as spiritual rice are transported using a teleportation array, the cost will be very high. It is best to use
The cost of flying across the East China Sea will be much lower, so Penglai wants to cut off their routes and force them to use teleportation arrays to transport them, consuming their strength. Every little bit is gained, and the advantages are accumulated bit by bit.
