Chapter 135 The Consequences of Yunzhou's Defeat

"Tell me in detail, what happened?" Ren Daoyuan asked.Of all the people present, only Yunfeng didn't care about the matter, and the others were all from the Qingzhou Fengyu Empire, and this news related to Qingzhou.

Now that Baidu Manzhou has made a move, they will not be satisfied with Guangde Yunzhou. As long as they are given enough time to digest Guangde Yundezhou, the next target must be Bahuang Qingzhou.Yunzhou, which was slightly stronger than Qingzhou, was defeated so quickly. Doesn't that mean that Qingzhou is not an opponent at all?

What's more troublesome is that everyone knows that the Duman Dao Sect and the Xuanbing Dao Sect of the Houtu Zongzhou are inextricably linked, and the relationship is extremely close.The strength of Houtu Zongzhou is extremely high among the Kyushu. Except for Zhongtu Qianzhou, which is obviously far better than the other eight states, Houtu Zongzhou's strength is definitely top-notch.

As long as the Poisonous Dao Sect persuades the Xuanbing Dao Sect, the Violent Bear Empire in Houtu Zongzhou is willing to send troops, and there is no need to send too many troops. Can't last long.As for the Dao Sect, the strength of the Secret Sword Sect is even the lowest among all the Dao Sects in Kyushu, and the support they can give to the Fengyu Empire is extremely limited.

Gong Zifeng took a sip of tea, calmed down and said: "The Poison Man Dao Sect started preparations decades ago. In the Pingshan Dao Sect, many spies were planted. Before the war started, they had already laid hands. Daozong poisoned everywhere, using a white jade savage insect powder. It is said that this poison is colorless and tasteless when it is dissolved in liquid. This kind of poison will only break out when it accumulates in the body to a certain extent. The Duman Daozong used this extremely precious poison powder, and began to attack it secretly a few years ago. Although it was discovered by the Pingshan Daozong beforehand, the internal poison Spy, but something happened in the end.”

"White jade barbarian insect powder..." Ren Daoyuan sighed softly, he naturally knew this thing, if he hadn't been lucky, he would have been poisoned by this incurable poison long ago.

Gong Zifeng nodded and said: "It's the white jade barbarian insect powder. At the beginning of the war, half of the people in Pingshan Daozong were poisoned. They relied on their own skills to suppress the poison, but they couldn't go to the battlefield. Lacking enough combat power support, from At the beginning of the war, the Baida Empire was at a disadvantage. Fortunately, the Yang God Yuezu was everywhere to make up for the leaks, so they barely supported it. But these high-level warriors were actually poisoned by the white jade savage insect powder, but they relied on their supreme power. Yes, it was suppressed abruptly, it may be that Daozong of Pingshan discovered it earlier, and these people have not been deeply poisoned."

The corner of Ren Daoyuan's mouth twitched slightly, Pingshan Daozong failed so badly, the matter of Bai Yuman worm powder was discovered by himself and reported through Dong Qing'er.It seems that although the news has been reported, the spies have not been caught, and it is already a bit late.

"Over time, the toxicity of the white jade barbarian insect powder in the bodies of these high-ranking warriors began to take hold. The strongmen of Pingshan Daozong had to suppress the toxicity in their bodies while fighting, and their strength was greatly reduced. Fewer and fewer. Until a while ago, all the personnel of Pingshan Daozong withdrew to the sect, and Pingshan Daozong closed the mountain." Gong Zifeng said.

"So that's it." Yunfeng didn't feel any skin pain, and just nodded after hearing it. To him, this is indeed quite violent news, but that's all. Just listen to it as news, whoever loses will lose Winning has nothing to do with him.What's more, as a person from Qianzhou, I have a pride in my heart, so what if you beat your life to death, who dares to bark your teeth at the powerful Qianzhou?If he hadn't considered that these people were all from Qingzhou and worried about the situation in Qingzhou, he would have been happy to drink some wine and have a heated discussion about the stupidity of Pingshan Taoist sect and the cunning of poisonous and barbaric Taoist sect.

There is no need for Gong Zifeng to continue talking. Everyone present understands what will happen to an empire that loses the support of the Taoist sect and faces an empire that is supported by the Taoist sect and is stronger than itself.

On the frontal battlefield, although there are still a large number of regular troops, after losing the support of Daozong, the generals and senior officers lost their protection.The speed of information transmission slows down, or even completely fails to transmit information. There is no need to guess the outcome of the war, and this battle will undoubtedly be defeated.

Ren Daoyuan's face was sinking like water, and he asked in a low voice, "How is the situation now?" A state, a clan, and a country have a vast area and a large population. Let alone a war, even if it takes you to walk from one end to the other, it will take a long time. a period of time.Even if it is defeated, it will take quite a long time for the barbaric state of Baidu, which is almost the same, to swallow Guangde Yunzhou in one go.

From Ren Daoyuan's point of view, Baidu Manzhou will definitely not let go of the fat of Eight Desolation Qingzhou.Or in the eyes of strong states like Zhongtu Qianzhou or Houtu Zongzhou, Bahuang Qingzhou can only be regarded as a piece of chicken rib, and they may not eat it when it is presented to them.But Baiduman State is not a strong state. If the area is expanded by three times, the population will be increased by more than three times. Such a temptation is something they cannot stop.

Ren Daoyuan is just a noble son of an aristocratic family. Even if he is a Taoist, he is only a small fourth-rank Taoist. In the face of such a war, even if he tries his best, he can play very little role.

"The capital of Yunde fell, the royal family was beheaded, more than [-]% of the land was occupied, and most of the army was wiped out. There are still more than [-] regular troops who have moved to the mountains, and millions of militiamen are still fighting." Zifeng said.

Ren Daoyuan nodded slightly. In backward areas like Bahuang Qingzhou, Guangde Yunzhou and Baidumanzhou, the orthodoxy has declined, martial arts are not prosperous, and equipment is limited, but it is an indisputable fact that people are strong.Living in such a land, not to mention that all the people are soldiers, it is not far away.Bahuang Qingzhou is very poor and weak, but it never needs to worry about recruiting soldiers, let alone the quality of its soldiers.

What the Wind Whisper Empire is worried about is not whether there are enough soldiers, but whether they have enough strength and equipment to support these soldiers.As long as it is needed, the Fengyu Empire can pull up millions of troops in a short period of time, but these troops, let alone weapons and equipment, have problems in trying to feed them.It may not be obvious in a short period of time, but after a few years, millions of troops are enough to drag down the finances of the entire Fengyu Empire.

"The war will not end so quickly. The nine states of the world have a long history. What kind of war has never happened? Although the Hundred Poison Man State gained power for a while, it is almost impossible to truly occupy Guangde Yun State." Yunfeng, as an outsider, speak his mind.

Everyone nodded in unison, what Yunfeng said was very insightful, the Kyushu mainland has a long history, and the worst palace style among the people present here is also the son of a rich family, who went to school when he was a child, so he naturally learned the history of Kyushu.For thousands of years, there have been constant wars, big and small, and many states participated in the war at the same time. The empires of each state changed from time to time, but the pattern of the entire continent has always been like this.

Before the Taoist appeared, the Qianzhou of the Middle Earth was invaded by the Allied Forces of the Eight States and almost perished. After hundreds of years of war, the division of the Kyushu was restored.It is almost impossible to really destroy a state.Even if the empire of a certain state is uprooted, hundreds of years later, this state will become independent again and become its own country.

"Yunfeng, in your opinion, what's going to happen next?" Ren Daoyuan discovered that the masters of Qianzhou in Central China not only have extremely high levels of martial arts, but also far surpass the bumpkins in Qingzhou.Unfortunately, I am also a country bumpkin, and in terms of knowledge, I am still far behind.

Yunfeng thought for a moment and said: "The biggest thing is stalemate. Many people will not want to see Yunzhou being trapped. Although they can't send troops directly, they will start from other aspects. For example, support from weapons and equipment and war resources , there will definitely be, it’s hard to say about other states, at least Qianzhou is unwilling to see Yunzhou change hands.”

Behind-the-back support, invisible support, this is the best method of Qianzhou, and it has a long history.Which side is weaker and which side is supported keeps the states in a delicate balance.

"Other than that?" Ren Daoyuan continued to ask.Ever since chatting with Qian Juduo, Ren Daoyuan knew that the mainland of Kyushu was turbulent, and the invasion of Yunzhou by a hundred poisonous barbarian states was not an isolated incident. Which states were involved behind the scenes? , little is known and impossible to guess.

Yunfeng shook his head and said, "No, no matter whether it is Qianzhou or other states, it is unlikely to directly intervene in the war, unless it is Qingzhou. But in my opinion, Qingzhou is powerless. Even if it wants to send troops, it cannot send enough troops. Qingzhou has a flat terrain, which is more suitable for large armies to fight, and there are not many positions that can be used for defense. If the Secret Sword Dao Sect has enough courage to send troops to Yunzhou, although the chance is not great, there is always a chance.”

Ren Daoyuan and Huo Yujia were silent, Yunfeng was right, Qingzhou was flat on the south and north on the north, and the place where the south meets Yunzhou is a flat river, and there is no danger to defend.The dangerous places are almost all north and west.Needless to say, there are no other state capitals and empires in the west, but the north is guarded by heavy troops to guard against the ambitious Houtu Zongzhou.

Don't say that Qingzhou can't send enough troops, and there aren't enough strong men to accompany the army. Even if there are, the possibility of sending troops into Yunzhou first is extremely small, based on the purpose of the Secret Sword Dao Sect to focus on stability.

"Yujia?" Ren Daoyuan turned his head and asked.

Huo Yujia raised his eyebrows slightly, shook his head and said, "Mr. Yun is right. The empire should focus on defense. Even if it recruits reserve soldiers, the number of them will not be too many."

Ren Daoyuan said softly: "That's not what I asked. It is useless for the empire to recruit a large number of troops. The empire cannot provide enough equipment and resources. I mean the aristocratic family."

"Aristocratic family..." Huo Yujia smiled wryly, what kind of virtue is the family of Fengyu Empire, do you need to say it?When a disaster is imminent, help the empire if you can. If you really can't, it is natural to arrange a retreat first.

Ren Daoyuan also smiled wryly and was speechless, how could he not know, not to mention other aristocratic families, it is the Ren family, I'm afraid that at this time his father and ancestors have already prepared their way out.After all, it would take a long enough time to completely occupy a state and digest the gains from the war.This period of time is enough for the family to prepare.
