When people pass by, they leave traces, and when things pass, they leave traces.
The traces of everything have their own vitality, which often makes Tai Yin feel nostalgic.
When he was very young, he was able to see its existence and the spirituality that could affect the traces. Therefore, he was regarded as a genius in the formation. He stood out among his peers and was brought by his uncle Taihua to teach him personally.
The time of a real person in this world is naturally precious, especially a real person like Taihua, who can be said to be the "tinkerer" of the entire Daxia national defense and is inseparable from every aspect.
But even so, Taihua never relaxed about his schoolwork.
From childhood to adulthood, his performance in all aspects has been almost impeccable. He is the first genius of Xia Kingdom, and has always been regarded as the successor of Zhenren Taihua. He is the hope of Tai family to rise to the first place in Daxia.
But actually... he never wanted to become the second Taihua...
His ideal is the ideal that people think he should have. His path is the optimal path drawn by Uncle Taihua.
He also naturally feels that he is on the right path in life.
Until he was shot down by that strange Zhang Yang man in the mountains and seas.
He could face the loss to Zhongxuanzun. There was an essential gap between Xia and Qi, and it was not that he didn't understand. He had indeed tried his best, and he could not overcome the natural chasm of strength.
Being number one in the Xia Kingdom on the world stage is indeed nothing.
Every country has its own number one, but on the river viewing platform, only one person can stand to the end. The others have so many expectations on their shoulders, and the number one who has walked in glory all the way... will all fall.
He was just unfortunate enough to be in it.
He works harder and works harder.
He can face losing to Jiang Wang. Jiang Wang's reputation is not self-proclaimed, it is the result of life and death battles. The geniuses of the mountains and seas compete with each other, and it is not a shame to be overtaken by the leader of the Yellow River in the Neifu realm.
Maybe he didn't work hard enough or work hard enough.
He still has a lot to learn and a long way to go. He can grit his teeth and keep up.
But a random person who came out of nowhere, with such flamboyant confidence, stabbed out with such a sharp spear... He was shaken.
From the end of the Mountain and Sea Realm to now, he has been wavering.
At this moment he walked in silence, soothing himself.
It soothes his fingers and soothes his spirit.
The rise and fall of the country rests on his shoulders, the rise and fall of his family rests on his back, people's expectations, his own expectations... He is too tight!
The family head and uncle, a middle-aged man named Taixu, was walking in a hurry from the other side. It seemed that he had just completed the work on the defense line and had not even had time to change into his official uniform.
Seeing Taiyin, he just winked and walked straight to the inner room.
Taiyin followed silently.
…
As the door closed, the bright yellow light flashed away.
Taiyin was familiar with the Five Elements Forbidden God Formation that isolated all detection, but it was impossible to control it so freely.
What else is going on?
There was unspeakable uneasiness in his heart.
The current head of the Tai family, Tai Xu, has a gentle appearance but a very strong temperament.
Otherwise, we would not have taken this step of destroying families and relieving people from difficulties, and sent all the young men and women of our clan to the front line.
"The State of Wei has made its attitude clear. They will not send troops." Taixu said as he sat down on the soft cushion.
Taiyin knelt down and sat opposite him, saying nothing for a while.
There is no need to talk about Chu State.
Before the Wei State, Li State and Yue State had all rejected requests for help.
Liang Guo?
Liang Guo has even sent troops to the border...
Of course, it was not to help Xia Guo, but just to take a bite of bloody flesh in the chaotic situation.
As a result, Xia State had to deploy troops to defend the border at this critical moment of the rise and fall of the country.
Since Emperor Liang Min died in Guiyi City, the hatred between the two sides has been irresolvable.
Originally, when Liang died, he died as well. Not many people cherished the memory of the last king.
However, Kang Shao, the clan member of the Liang Kingdom, took advantage of the Qi-Xia struggle for hegemony and succeeded in restoring the country. This blood debt has continued and cannot be eliminated unless one country is destroyed...
There is nothing to say about old debts.
Jiange?
Without the support of Jiange in the early years, how could Kang Shao defend the rear beam!
Three Penalties Palace?
As a holy land of Legalism, the status of Sanxing Palace and Shushan are almost the same, but Sanxing Palace is less likely to interfere than Shushan.
The monks of Sanxing Palace are all over the world, but Sanxing Palace itself is only used as a place to govern the law. The Legalist monks are a place where they can never support any party.
If we really talk about the monks who were born in Sanxing Palace, the influence of Qi State within Sanxing Palace will only be stronger than that of Xia State, not weaker than that of Xia State.
Li State was once annexed by Xia State and later restored. However, the top leaders of both sides have had many exchanges in recent years, and the diplomatic relations have been relatively relaxed. However, Li State itself does not have the strength to interfere in the Qi Xia War.
In the entire Southern Territory, the only ones with the ability to really influence the war situation and the possibility of sending troops are Wei and Yue.
But now they have failed one after another.
Although it is still unknown what the Qi State has paid for this, there is no doubt that...at the diplomatic level, the Xia State has also been locked up.
Taiyin once again realized deeply.
This is an all-round, multi-dimensional war, a real war to destroy the country!
And this war may have started earlier than he knew.
Taixu looked at Taiyin and said directly: "You can't die."
Taiyin put his hands on his knees and was at a loss for a moment: "Taiyin...my...nephew..."
After changing his self-identity three times in succession, he lowered his head slightly and said, "Taiyin will live and die with Taishi."
His words were very clear, so of course he had already thought clearly.
"Of course." Taixu said, "If you live, Taishi will live, and if you die, Taishi will die."
Taiyin wanted to say that he didn't mean it that way.
I want to say that what I want is not this kind of life and death together, not to be alone in the fate of the family.
But Taixu didn't give him a chance to speak, just like in the past.
Why bother talking if it is true?
It's not that Taixu doesn't know, it's not that he can't clearly see his mood. It's just that Taixu feels that there is a better choice, both for him and for Taishi.
The Taishi clan leader said to himself: "You have inherited your uncle's mantle and inherited the most exquisite part of my Taishi formation. He valued you the most during his lifetime. I also..."
He didn't want to continue talking about emotions, so he changed the topic: "The so-called formation method is to use the power of heaven and earth, and it is to use the human way to embody the way of heaven. If the way of heaven wants to make Xia die, Xia will die, and I, Taishi, can only sacrifice it with blood.
It’s just that you must keep my Tai family’s fire.”
Taixu's eyes were so calm, and there was huge and unbearable pain in the calmness: "I'm not asking you to leave now. My Tai family belongs to a famous family in Daxia. Letting you go now is tantamount to surrender. It is tantamount to betrayal of the country.
.I mean, at the last moment..."
Taiyin gritted his teeth and said: "The outcome is still uncertain. The Xia Kingdom was not destroyed thirty-two years ago, and it will not be destroyed this time!"
"Of course." Taixu said: "I believe that I, Daxia, still have an unfinished destiny. I am willing to dedicate everything to this end and fight to the end...I am just talking about the worst outcome. If..."
He took a deep breath before continuing: "If it really comes to that point, you will be the only one who cannot die, Mrs. Tai."
He took out a blue array disk with a hazy glow from his arms and handed it to Taiyin: "I can't give you other things because I still need to fight, and Daxia still needs me to fight. This blue array disk
The Mingnuo Shipan has always been a life-saving thing for the head of the Tai family. It has been passed to me for twenty years. When necessary, it can help you escape. I give it to you now. I hope you will not forget your mission.
."
Taixu had his own son and his own daughter, but he gave this unique Qingming moving plate to Taiyin.
He looked at Tai Yin and said earnestly: "If you don't die, the Tai family will never be destroyed, and the formation will never be destroyed."
He closed Taiyin's hand, held it with both hands, and pressed it twice.
Then he stood up and left the room.
Taiyin wanted to say, no, it won't come to that point.
Taiyin wanted to say, if everyone is dead, why should I live? What is the meaning of my life?
He even wanted to say, no, the formation path I imagined is not what you said. Even if I survive, what is alive will not be Taishi's ancient formation path. It is not your way.
But he couldn't say a word.
How could he say a word?
In this quiet room where there is no other sound.
He sat on his knees, as lonely as his shadow.
…
…
It's too much of a family affair to be a family affair.
The Qi army destroyed Jianfeng Mountain in one day, which was like a blow to the head, hitting many people on the forehead.
The far-reaching impact of this battle can only be clearly seen through a post-war review.
Just now, more than one family is starting to look for a way out...
But the Qi army is still moving forward.
Millions of Qi troops were destroyed.
The entire territory of Fengjie Prefecture was reorganized and it was completed within three days.
The "Purple Ji March" subsequently penetrated Fengjie, and while expanding the supply line, it also helped the army complete the control of the occupied areas.
The Qi army did not torture the Xia people, nor did they deliberately prevent the Xia people from fleeing.
On the one hand, fewer people with a strong desire to flee will reduce the control pressure on occupied areas.
Secondly, as long as they are in the Xia Kingdom, no matter where they flee, the Qi army will fight. In the end, they will return to rule, so they might as well feed the enemy before!
Thirdly, the fleeing people of the Xia Kingdom themselves are the most real source of panic.
Sending a hundred spies to create panic in the Xia Kingdom is not as effective as one ordinary Xia citizen who has left his homeland and burst into tears.
Cao Cao used his troops and his control over details was almost perfect.
At this moment, one million troops from Qi State gathered on the banks of the Lianjiang River.
The flag officer galloped his horse in the air, raised the flag and shouted: "Send the command from the commander to cross the river!"
Monks who are good at water-moving Taoism line up along the banks of the Lianjiang River.
The movements were uniform, and they pressed the seals almost at the same time to activate the military formation Taoist technique.
Click, click.
Ice spreads quickly across the water.
This kind of ice is not a layer of floating ice or thin ice on the surface of the river, but frozen ice that is as thick as half of the river bank, and can be used for horse racing!
After the spell, the Lianjiang River was frozen.
The flowing Lianjiang River, which went hundreds of miles around the Jiangyin Plain, solidified at this time.
Refracting sunlight, a rainbow shadow appeared for a moment.
The Zhufeng soldiers harnessed their horses, formed a front army, and marched across the river gallantly...
People flooded the river!
And he raised his gaze from the surge of powerful troops and looked into the distance
But I saw the sun setting over the plains, the rays of light diverging, and at what seemed like the end of my field of vision, there was the shadow of a majestic city.
In this fertile Jiangyin plain, Tongyang City stands firm.
The strongest divine weapons of the Xia Kingdom and the second army of Zhenguo are all located here.
King Wu Sijiao, the king of Daxia, personally controlled this city.
More than a million troops from the government gathered together to establish a solid northeastern defense line with Tongyang City as the center to firmly block the Qi army from this line.
Standing in the air, Chong Xuansheng squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. In the shadow of the majestic city, he saw smoke and dust filling the air, and large swaths of cavalry approaching like black clouds.
"Xia Jun dared to go out of the city to fight?" Jiang Wang, who was flying into the air next to him, asked in surprise.
In his view, the strength of the Qi army was unquestionable. It swept across the world and no country other than the hegemon could take advantage of it.
The only advantage of the Xia army was the geographical location. Only by holding on to the city could they fight against the Qi army.
How could they go out to fight in the city at this time?
Especially the military flag embroidered with the word Zhenguo, it shows that this army is one of the strongest forces in the Xia Kingdom. This is obviously not a test. The Xia army is very powerful, and it seems that they are going to push the Qi army back to the east bank of Lianjiang River.
!
Chongxuan Sheng explained in a low voice: "The dangers of mountains and rivers cannot consolidate a country, and only the will to die can control its borders. Before defending the city, there must be a fight. If this battle is not fought, Xia's army will have no morale."
Why did Marshal Cao want to capture Jianfeng Mountain in one day and Fengjie Mansion in three days at all costs? This is the reason!"
If Yu Liyang really turned Fengjie Mansion into a quagmire of flesh and blood and successfully delayed the Qi army, then Xiangyou Mansion can naturally hold on calmly and wait for work, and guard it forever.
However, Jianfeng Mountain fell in the first battle, and Fengjie Mansion changed its banner in three days. The military morale of the Xia people was almost chipped away.
A national war has been going on until now, and if there is still no head-on confrontation, no courage can be demonstrated, and the city cannot be defended. If people's will has no support, it will collapse sooner or later!
Qiu Sha's army was still on the east bank of the Lianjiang River and had not yet crossed the river. This battle was not their turn.
Therefore, Jiang Wang and Chong Xuansheng can still discuss a few words here.
"Which book said this sentence?" Jiang Wang asked: "This sentence is about the dangers of mountains and rivers."
"Oh." Chong Xuansheng said casually: "What Emperor Xia Xiang said is recorded in the Xia Book. This is also the origin of the military title of their Zhenguo Army."
Although it is just such an understatement, it is enough to show how much preparation the fat man has made for this war against Xia! Obviously this time in the army, he can only be regarded as a middle-level general at best, and he only needs to focus on the people under his command.
There are three people in the capital, but he has not relaxed at all when considering the overall situation!
He responded to his competition with Zhongxuanzun by taking the lead in the war against Xia.
How can others say that the victory or defeat has been decided?
Even in the western suburbs of Linzi, Chongxuanzun won the position of vanguard general with the divine power.
Even though Zhongxuan Zun is now leading a sweep in Xia Realm, he almost has an overwhelming advantage in terms of achievements.
But this war is not over yet.
There are endless possibilities.
And both Chong Xuansheng and Jiang Wang are undoubtedly people who can grasp the "possibility".
Jiang Wang didn't say anything else at this moment. He looked at the surging military tide ahead and said, "I think Commander Cao has already predicted this."
"Otherwise, why do you think the Zhufeng Army has to sharpen its front? In three days and twenty-three, the city has been captured, and the whole territory of Fengjie Mansion has changed its flag. Now is the time when the Zhufeng Army is at its peak! At this moment, the bayonets are seeing blood, and the sharp edges are killing each other.
It’s just the right time!”
When Chong Xuansheng said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Every step on the opposite side cannot escape the control of Commander Cao. It's not that they are short-witted, but that they have no other choice. This is a majestic division!"
