Chapter 417: Order to immediately attack the Zhou army with all your strength

Dynasty.

Above the palace.

The emperor stood in mid-air, gazing towards the direction of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his expression solemn.

This fluctuation came from the direction of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This strange phenomenon in the heavens and earth is also a sign of the fall of a sage.

Moreover, judging from the frequent occurrence of these strange phenomena, it wasn't just one saint who had fallen, but four saints in a row.

The emperor's eyes kept flashing, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

The fall of four saints in a row is no ordinary event.

You must understand that saints are not as common as cabbages; there are very few saints in the entire Eastern Region.

The sudden fall of four saints is something that has never happened in the entire Eastern Region for many years.

"It seems that the Qingyun Sect and the Ziyang Sect have already made their move against the Great Zhou. I just don't know if the fallen saint is from the Great Zhou, or from the Qingyun Sect and the Ziyang Sect, or if they both have saints who have fallen?"

The emperor's eyes flickered as he gazed in the direction of the Great Zhou, thinking to himself.

The two major sects, Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect, suffered losses in the Great Zhou Dynasty and have remained silent ever since.

Now, with such a huge fluctuation coming from the direction of Great Zhou, along with the strange celestial phenomenon of a saint's fall, the only thing the Emperor can think of is that the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect have attacked Great Zhou.

As for why it wasn't a sage from his dynasty, it's because news had just come back from the front lines that no sage from the Great Zhou had yet taken action against his dynasty's army.

Furthermore, no one immediately reported that the imperial stele of the emperor's mandate had been shattered.

This shows that it was not the sages of his dynasty and the sages of the Great Zhou who were fighting.

However, whether it is the fall of a sage from the Great Zhou Dynasty or the fall of sages from the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect, it is a good thing for the dynasty.

The Great Zhou is the enemy of the Imperial Dynasty, and top sects like the Qingyun Sect and the Ziyang Sect are not friends of the Imperial Dynasty either. On the contrary, they are a major threat to the Imperial Dynasty. No matter who it is, if they lose the power of a Saint, it will only benefit the Imperial Dynasty.

……

Great Yan.

The Imperial City of Yandu.

Han Xin, Fang Xuanling, and the others stood on the city wall, watching the strange phenomena in the sky and gazing solemnly in the direction of the Great Zhou.

Even the distant imperial court could sense the fluctuations of the Great Zhou war and the celestial phenomena of the fall of a sage. How much more so the neighboring Great Yan! The fluctuations of the war and the celestial phenomena that Han Xin and Fang Xuanling felt and saw were naturally even clearer.

"When a sage dies, heaven and earth grieve!"

Han Xin, Fang Xuanling, and the others gazed in the direction of the Great Zhou, their expressions all quite solemn.

They naturally knew that this fluctuation was due to a sage taking action against the Great Zhou, and that this strange phenomenon in the heavens and earth was also due to the fall of a sage.

They could roughly guess which side the sage who attacked the Great Zhou came from.

The imperial dynasty's forces have been tied down, making it virtually impossible for them to spare any more manpower for the Great Zhou. Therefore, only the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect remain.

Although Han Xin and Fang Xuanling were always outside the Great Zhou, the existence of the Eastern Depot meant they were well aware of what had happened in the Great Zhou.

Currently, the three major forces that have grudges against the Great Zhou are these three parties.

Besides the imperial dynasty, there are only two major sects: Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect.

Looking at these continuous strange phenomena in the heavens and earth, Han Xin, Fang Xuanling, and the others showed not only solemnity but also a hint of worry on their faces.

They were unaware that a sage had taken action against the Great Zhou, and what the situation of the Great Zhou was.
However, they also know in their hearts that worrying about these things now is useless, and they have no power to change anything.

Right now, facing the imperial army, they themselves are barely able to protect themselves... After the fluctuations subsided, Han Xin withdrew his gaze and looked at Fang Xuanling; "Lord Fang, have the retreat arrangements been made?"

The outcome of this battle is unpredictable.

Even a military genius like Han Xin, given the overwhelming difference in strength, was not confident that he could stop the imperial army.

Unlike the other dynasties like the Great Qian, where Han Xin and his people merely controlled the territory without sending officials to accept or occupy it, the Great Yan Dynasty was different.

However, both the Great Yan and the Great Zhou have already sent Fang Xuanling and the Eighth Prince, along with many officials, as well as troops and other personnel from the Great Zhou.

These officials and personnel were to be prepared to evacuate in advance.

If the battle is lost, these personnel must be immediately withdrawn to the Great Zhou to avoid being annihilated by the imperial army.

"General Han, rest assured, I have already made arrangements for the retreat. General Han, just focus on facing the enemy. Leave the rest to me."

Fang Xuanling also withdrew his gaze, looking solemnly at the densely packed army outside the city.

……

outside the city.

Warships filled the sky, and a vast army stood in formation.

On the foremost large warship, the commander of the imperial army, the Divine Martial King, stood on the deck, gazing solemnly towards the direction of the Great Zhou.

"This must be the work of the two major sects, Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect."

"However, judging from these strange phenomena in the heavens and earth, the sudden death of four sages is somewhat unexpected. I wonder how many of these four sages were from the Great Zhou?"

King Shenwu gazed in the direction of the Great Zhou, his eyes gleaming as he pondered.

The Divine Martial King never imagined that the four saints who died were from the two major sects, the Purple Sun Sect and the Azure Cloud Sect.

Because the possibility of this is almost zero.

Both the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect are top-tier sects. Even his dynasty doesn't have enough confidence to easily destroy the four saints of these two major sects.

In the eyes of the Divine Martial King, among the four sages who died, there must have been a sage from the Great Zhou Dynasty who perished.

"It seems that the Great Zhou did not send a sage to take action before because it was on guard against the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect."

"If that's the case, then the Great Zhou probably doesn't have much strength or foundation."

"In that case, it's time to unleash our full power."

Previously, the Divine Martial King had always adopted a steady and methodical approach to attack, without going all out.

King Shenwu feared that if he wiped out Han Xin and his men all at once, there would be no fish left, and the strength of the Great Zhou would not be able to be dispersed.

But now that the people from the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect have already made their move against the Great Zhou, there is no need for the dynasty to delay any longer. It is time to launch a full-scale attack, wipe out the Zhou army in the city, and march straight into the Great Zhou.

"Issue the order to immediately launch a full-scale attack on Zhou's army."

The Divine Martial King withdrew his gaze and immediately ordered his army to launch a full-scale attack on the Great Zhou garrison inside the city.

woo woo woo...

As soon as the Divine Martial King gave the order, the melodious sound of horns immediately rang out.

The densely packed army, like locusts swarming across the land, rushed towards the imperial city of Yandu.

After these major battles, the imperial army suffered many casualties, but the imperial army was always replenished with reinforcements in a timely manner, so that the imperial army was always well-equipped.
