Chapter 172.1
The news of this battle spread quickly, shocking everyone.
The victor is once again Great Xia!
Not only has Sword Elders injuries healed, but hes also become even stronger than before. How did he manage that? Could it be that he consumed some kind of miraculous immortal elixir? ๐ovele๐๐๐.com
With one sword strike, he killed dozens of Innates, securing the victory!
Now the Great Feng Dynasty is in peril, with Great Xias forces breaching their defenses!
Great Xia remains as powerful as ever! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.๐๐๐ข
Upon hearing this news, the neighboring countries of Great Xia were all deeply alarmed.
Originally, they had planned to take advantage of the situation when Great Xia and Great Feng were both weakened from their battle to seize some territory from Great Xia.
However, they hadnt expected that the Sword Elder would not only recover but also become even stronger than before, supporting Great Xia to defeat Great Feng and achieve a great victory.
Now, they didnt dare to make a move, fearing they would become the next Great Feng.
Great Xia is indeed not so easy to deal with, hold the troops back for now!
Well wait for another opportunity!
At this time, Great Fengs army of a million had been captured, and their experts had fled in defeat. Great Feng was simply unable to organize any effective resistance.
Great Xias army of 500,000 marched through, conquering cities and seizing territories, then transported back to Great Xia carts filled with gold, silver, jewels, and food they had plundered from the cities, reaping huge rewards and fruitful outcomes.
And there was Lin Beifan, who was moving things in secret.
The national power of the Great Feng Dynasty is even stronger than that of Great Xue by a third, and now it seems to be true! Whether its underground or above-ground resources, they have more than Great Xue! This time, I will eat my fill, hehe!
Great Xia had just expanded its territory and gained 30 million common people, many of whom had no money and couldnt afford food; the nation was in need of great rejuvenation.
So, he wanted to seize this opportunity to enrich himself first.
If he became wealthy first, then the people of the nation could become wealthy too.
As the gains increased, Lin Beifan was happy, but the entire Great Feng Dynasty court was in a panic.
Its all your fault!
The Great Feng Emperor furiously stomped on Prince Rongzhen, saying harshly, If it werent for your encouragement to attack Great Xia, how could we have come to this? Weve lost a million soldiers, several Innate experts have died, and now even my wealth and territory have been plundered by them! And you still have the face to come back?
After cursing, he stomped on the prince again, still not feeling satisfied.
Prince Rongzhen screamed in agony, feeling extremely wronged!
Indeed, it was he who had proposed the idea, but without the Emperors approval, could the plan have been executed?
Now that they had lost, all the blame was being thrown onto him. How was that fair?
Regardless of fairness, he was destined to carry the blame!
After all, the Emperor couldnt be expected to take responsibility, could he?
Every mistake was the fault of those below!
The Emperor is the ruler of the nation, forever wise and invincible, never wrong!
Yes, yes, you are right to scold me, Your Majesty! Its all this humble servants fault! I deserve to die Prince Rongzhen kowtowed and slapped his own face as an apology.
In the great hall, the sound of him slapping his own face echoed.
Seeing the prince weeping bitterly, the Great Feng Emperor finally felt some of his anger subside.
He faced the civil and military officials and said, Ministers, you all know the situation. Do you have any good strategies?
This The civil and military officials looked at each other, but not one had an answer.
Because, at this point, no strategy would work.
Although Great Xia had only sent an army of 500,000, it was filled with experts.
There were generals like Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, who knew the art of bewitchment, capable of inciting their soldiers to defect.
There were Innate powerhouses like the Heng Ha Generals, Deadly Scholar, and Wine Sword Immortal who could deal with their experts.
Most crucially, Great Xia had sent the Sword Elder!
This guy was incredibly powerful, wielding a divine sword that could slaughter all in his path, unstoppable by anyone except a Grandmaster.
So, what could they possibly do?
Watching the silent civil and military officials, Great Feng Emperor angrily exclaimed, Whats the matter? Youre all so eloquent when it comes to fighting for power and profit, but now you have nothing to say? Struck dumb? Dont forget, that foolish Emperor despised the noble families the most! You all know the fate that befell the people of Great Xues clan! If Great Feng falls, if I fall, youll all be doomed as well, and not one of you will escape!
A chill ran through everyones hearts, and they broke out in cold sweat.
They naturally knew the fate of the noble family members of the Great Xue!
From top to bottom, they were all wiped out, not a single survivor was left!
They certainly did not want to meet the same fate!
Seeing that the civil and military officials had realized the gravity of the situation, Great Feng Emperors tone softened slightly as he said, Therefore, we must now set aside all prejudices, put aside all differences, and unite to confront Great Xia with all our might! Only if we win this battle can we preserve everything, can we save our lives!
A person stepped forward, Your Majesty, there is only one strategy available to us now!
Great Feng Emperors eyes lit up, What strategy? Minister, speak quickly!
Currently, the only force capable of resisting Great Xias troops is the Grandmaster, so if we can invite a Grandmaster, everything will be resolved!
Great Feng Emperor became angry, Isnt that obvious? If Great Feng had a Grandmaster, would I be so worried?
Your Majesty, your humble servant, didnt mean that. What I meant is
After listening to the rest of the explanation, Great Feng Emperor pondered seriously and finally nodded his head in difficult agreement.
Meanwhile, Great Xias troops were advancing northward at a remarkable pace, achieving gratifying results.
In less than a week, more than half of Great Fengs territory had fallen, and the seized gold, silver, and jewels had reached a total of 8 million taels of silver, with food supplies too numerous to count.
The entire army was in high spirits as they marched towards Great Fengs capital city.
General Tiangong, looking at the distant capital city, said spiritedly, Brother, we have arrived at Great Fengs capital city! Once we take this city, we will obtain tens of millions in gold and silver treasures and countless supplies of food, enough to report back to His Majesty!
Elder brother, youre too conservative! Why stop at taking down Great Fengs capital city? Lets take the whole territory of Great Feng! His Majesty is always generous and will surely not treat us poorly!
Elder brother, this time I support our third brother! General Digong shouted loudly.
The other powerhouses smiled as they watched the three brothers banter. Not only was the battle easy, but the spoils were substantial.
After returning, His Majesty would surely be overjoyed and reward them handsomely.
