Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 726 Cause of Failure
Led by the local Canglang, Lu Ping and others headed north.

After just a few days, a towering snow-capped mountain appeared before our eyes.

However, the snow-capped mountain in front of him was not the "Great Snow Mountain" where the magic dragon flew to in the previous news, but the ancestral land of the Miaojiang Guming royal family, the Solitary Snow Thousand Peaks.

"The Lonely Snowy Thousand Peaks is equivalent to the imperial mausoleum in Miaojiang."

“If you walk north for three days through this mountain, you will see a snowy mountain range that runs east to west and stretches for a thousand miles. This is the Great Snow Mountain that divides Xiwulin into two.”

"The Camel Tribe's territory is about fifty miles west of Lonely Snow Thousand Peaks."

The group looked into the distance and saw a large green area "next to" the snow-capped mountains. They thought that was the grassland where the camel tribe lived as reported by the intelligence.

However, from their current location, if they want to get to that grassland, they still need to pass through a bay.

Moon Bay!
After hearing the name of this place, Lu Ping immediately gave up his plan to go to the Great Snow Mountain alone and decided to follow Canglang and others for a distance.

After another two days of walking and stopping, everyone finally arrived at Yuening Bay.

Yuening Bay is located in the northwest of Miaojiang and is a seaport shaped like a crescent moon.

If you look down from the top of the mountain, it looks like the moon in the sky has fallen to the ground, creating a huge hole that is concave inward toward the land, causing seawater to flow back, so it got the vivid name "Yuening Bay".

"Yuening Bay... the best filming location for Miao Territory horror theater..."

This is Lu Ping’s biggest impression of this place.

In "Golden Light", ever since Wang Jinyan used Wuqing Cangyue as bait to encircle and kill Feng Xiaoyao, but was killed by Feng Xiaoyao in a sea of ​​blood, this place has been often haunted.

The most impressive one among them should be the little girl from the demon world named Qiao Ling who sang the scary nursery rhyme "Moon Coagulation Bay, Blood Coagulation Bay, it is very difficult for little people to carry things" and could also shrink the size of people.

But now, Wang Jinyan has not appeared in the world, and has not set up a trap, arrested anyone, or surrounded and killed anyone.

So the Yuening Bay that Lu Ping saw was still a beautiful bay.

"Is this the Moonlight Bay?"

“There are quite a few people living around here, right?”

It was dusk when they arrived at Yuening Bay.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, smoke was rising from the houses clustered together in the distance, and with the wind, it brought the aroma of food.

Canglang recalled the memorials he had read when he was helping to handle government affairs in the palace, and said, "The area around Yuening Bay is not only beautiful, but also has high aquaculture production."

"Except that it is far from the royal center and the market, which makes life inconvenient, there are no major disadvantages."

"So some people who like quietness and are able to be self-sufficient will choose to settle here."

After Canglang's in-depth and easy-to-understand explanation, Lu Ping learned that Yuening Bay is equivalent to a semi-developed 5A-level scenic spot and tourist destination in Miaojiang.

Due to the abundant aquatic resources, most people living here come from well-off families and do not need to worry too much about their livelihoods. Even the children in most families can afford to go to school.

When it comes to teaching, Lu Ping thinks of Wang Jinyan.

Sure enough, when the few people arrived at a nearby village and asked a local about it, they found that there was indeed a private school here.

The teacher in the private school is called Wang Jin Yan.

"Why do you care so much about that teacher?"

Canglang inevitably felt a little curious about Lu Ping's behavior.

Is it normal for you, a man from the Southern Wulin, to be so concerned about the education of the people in a remote place like Yuening Bay?

"I just want to see how different your Miaojiang's teaching level in children's education is from that of Southern Wulin. You don't have to be so sensitive."

Canglang nodded, accepting the answer, and suddenly he sighed as if he had thought of something. Seeing this, Lu Ping asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Canglang came back to his senses: "In the past, the Miao king conquered the tribes with force and established his kingship. However, since the founding of the Miao Kingdom, it seems that everyone from the court to the people has neglected the issue of knowledge and education, and has placed too much emphasis on military affairs and neglected culture."

"Take the previous dynasty for example. My father's subordinates included Cang Jingren, the female tyrant, He Meng Tianye, and Uncle Qianxue. Outside, there were Tie Qiong Qiuyi, Feng Xiaoyao, and Bai Ri Wuzhi from the Iron Army Guard."

"These people are indeed good at leading troops in battle, but none of them can give advice to my father."

"Uncle Zuwang is the wisest man in the world and the best candidate, but he is weak and sickly and can't leave the house nine out of ten days."

"If there had been a wise man assisting my father in the court, he wouldn't have suffered such a disastrous defeat at the No Regrets Peak."

When Lu Ping heard Canglang mention the female tyrant, a strange look flashed across his face.

This kind and harmless Cang Tu seemed to have forgotten how the female tyrant stabbed him in the back and "gave" him to Xuan Zhixuan on that day at Buhui Peak.

In fact, it is not Canglang’s fault that he is forgetful, but what happened on the No Regrets Peak that day was different from the open power seizure and rebellion in the original drama.

At that time, the Miao soldiers were ambushed and surrounded by the army of the Suzaku Dynasty and the heroes of the martial arts world. Even the Miao King was seriously injured and dying, making it almost impossible for him to escape.

Therefore, in Canglang's eyes, the female tyrant did not participate in the rebellion from the beginning.

Instead, when he saw that the situation was hopeless, he decisively chose to surrender and sacrifice himself, the prince, to save himself and the remaining Miao soldiers.

In the end she succeeded and returned to Miao territory with the remaining Miao soldiers.

Canglang already knew that the female tyrant was selfish and not a good person.

Therefore, it was normal for her to make the decision to surrender to the enemy when the Miao King died, there was no one to suppress her, and she had to face the enemy army alone.

Moreover, after returning, the female tyrant continued to work hard for Miaojiang, which shows that surrender was indeed a last resort.

Of course there is the most important point.

That is, Canglang himself felt that the disastrous defeat in that war was caused by his father's suspicion, poor planning, and carelessness, which also resulted in the sacrifice of countless Miao soldiers.

As the crown prince of Miao, it is only natural for me to take responsibility and sacrifice for the Miao soldiers in exchange for their safe return home.

Lu Ping had no idea that Canglang had such great thoughts in his heart.

He just thought that this child had lost his memory due to being tortured by Xuan Zhixuan during the Shangtong Society.

"As the saying goes, if you want to suffer, your children will suffer first; if you are poor, your education will suffer first!"

"In my opinion, the successive monarchs of Miaojiang did not neglect the issue of education due to short-sightedness as you said."

"On the contrary, they did it on purpose because keeping the people ignorant is more conducive to their rule."

Lu Ping refuted some of Canglang's ideas and expressed his own views.

"Don't forget that Miaojiang is different from the extinct Suzaku Dynasty."

"The Miao region has so far maintained a policy of self-governance within each tribe, and within each tribe, the style of 'force first' has also been maintained."

"So for the Guming royal family, force is obviously more important than the rule of law in maintaining the stability of the royal power."

Having said that, Lu Ping paused.

"But what you said later is also correct. Your father was defeated because he lacked a wise man to give him advice."

"Fortunately, Jingri Guming is the king now. He is much smarter than your father."

"Compared to the past, there are not enough 'war generals' in the court of Miaojiang now. Maybe this is the 'talent constancy theory'."
