Daqin: The Greatest Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

"What are the casualties?" Wei Zhuang wiped the blood off his face and asked in a deep voice.

"The damage is nearly 10,000." Tang Qi sighed heavily, "The situation is not optimistic."

"The Qin army's casualties are estimated to be less than a thousand. If they come a few more times, Nanyang City will probably fall without a fight." Tang Qi frowned, "Their weapons are too lethal. We must find a way to restrain them. I suspect that someone from Gongshu's family may be involved."

"Mohist?" Wei Zhuang understood instantly. If the Mohist School could come forward, they might be able to create counter-weapons or weapons with the same lethality.

"Boss Wei, have you noticed a problem?" Tang Qi looked at Wei Zhuang. "It's not just the stone carts. Many weapons that the Qin army has are more advanced than ours. Their bows and arrows have a longer range than ours, and their crossbows can shoot more than one arrow at a time. The reason why we suffered heavy losses, in addition to the bravery of the Qin army, these weapons probably account for most of the credit."

Wei Zhuang's face darkened when he thought of the terrifying power of the stone cannon.

In just one day, the morale of his soldiers dropped to freezing point. If they continued to hold on, the army would probably collapse.

He must take the initiative to look for opportunities to win a victory to boost morale.

At this moment, one of Tang Qi's confidants came in and whispered a few words in his ear. After that, he handed a letter to Tang Qi.

Tang Qi's expression changed instantly, and his eyes became more solemn than ever before.

"Now there is a more important matter that we need to deal with. Bai Yifei is meeting with Su Xuan in secret and may turn against us at any time." As he said this, he handed the secret letter to Wei Zhuang.

The so-called secret letter, what was written on it, was what Su Xuan wrote to Bai Yifei, but he deliberately let Wei Zhuang know one of the copies. His purpose was naturally to alienate the two of them and make it impossible for Bai Yifei to turn back.

After reading the secret letter, Wei Zhuang frowned and asked, "How credible do you think what is written in the letter is?"

"I think this is most likely true." Tang Qi looked worried. "The fact that we know this is probably because that person deliberately let us know."

This is a blatant plot to sow discord!

"We should be wary of Bai Yifei. He is not on the same page with us." Wei Zhuang said expressionlessly, but he sighed in his heart. The time left for him and Han Fei was too short after all. If they could integrate the whole of Korea, they might have a chance to overcome this difficulty.

He then shook his head again. It was the enemy they were facing that didn't give them any chance.

Su Xuan......

He murmured softly, feeling complicated and indescribable.

On the day Su Xuan left South Korea, he knew that they would one day become rivals, but he didn't expect that day to come so soon, and he never thought that he would be completely powerless in front of him.

He couldn't help but think of the time when they were friends. The one who suffered was their opponent, but today, it was his turn.

Recalling today's battle, he felt that Su Xuan had not even used his full strength. If he really wanted to capture Nanyang, he only needed to send Hei Bai Xuan Jian and a few first-class killers to stop himself and Bai Yifei. The Qin army would be able to climb the city wall continuously, and in that case, Nanyang City would be broken!

War, after all, is a competition between the national strength of two countries, and the gap between the national strength of Qin and Han is still too great.

As the commander-in-chief and a top wise man, Wei Zhuang really didn't know how to win this battle.

"Send someone to tell the Ninth Prince about the battle situation here, and send another person to ask for help from the State of Wei." Wei Zhuang made a quick decision.

He felt exhausted on just the first day. How long he could hold on depended entirely on fate.

At the same time, Bai Yifei also knew what happened in Wei Zhuang. He was not surprised, nor did he think that Wei Zhuang would take the initiative to start a war with him.

Internal strife is only a way to self-destruction.

Besides, he had tens of thousands of elite White-Armored Soldiers, so it was still unclear whether Wei Zhuang could defeat them.

He believed that Wei Zhuang would maintain a tacit understanding with him, and as long as he did not rebel, they would not resort to violence even if there were more frictions.

Did he finally compromise with reality? Bai Yifei picked up the wine and shook his head.

He still prefers the previous Wei Zhuang.

The Wei Zhuang in the past did not have so many scruples, and he would definitely draw his sword against him.

Bai Yifei felt that having a blood-boiling fight was actually quite good. At least it could slightly raise the temperature of the cold blood in his body.

He took a sip of the wine, his lips turned scarlet, his eyes emitting a seductive light, and he licked his lips gently, feeling inexplicably excited.

He longed for a hearty fight.

Chapter 185 Vision

An unexpected visitor arrived at the Qin army camp.

The person who came was Gai Nie, whom Su Xuan specially borrowed from Ying Zheng.

Not only Gai Nie, but the Six Sword Slaves also came along.

No matter what time, Su Xuan will never put himself in danger, and his main focus is on safety.

"There is still one matter that requires Mr. Gai Nie's help." Su Xuan immediately told him about how Wei Zhuang stopped the Qin army from capturing the city.

"You are too polite, Prime Minister. I will leave this matter to Gai." Gai Nie said seriously, "I will definitely not let you interfere with the Qin army in the slightest."

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Su Xuan has many ways to deal with Wei Zhuang, but what he wants to see more is the peak showdown between Zong and Heng.

When two people are fighting for their ideals, this battle is bound to be extremely exciting.

Su Xuan was very curious about who would win in the end.

Thinking of this, he deliberately looked at Gai Nie. The current Gai Nie was not the sword saint who disliked killing in later generations. Now he was decisive in killing, just like Wei Zhuang in later generations.

This matchup is exciting.

"With Mr. Gai Nie coming forward, I can rest assured." Su Xuan picked up the wine jar and toasted Gai Nie.

The two men clinked their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp.

After a few sips, Su Xuan asked Gai Nie to take a rest, because tomorrow would be the time for him to truly show his skills.

As for the night, Su Xuan had no plan to let the soldiers defending Nanyang rest.

As early as the afternoon, he withdrew half of the Qin soldiers and let them rest on the spot in order to launch a surprise attack at night.

Want to sleep? Forget it! He wanted to weaken the spirits and cause nervous breakdown of the soldiers defending Nanyang, so that they would not want to fight again.

Just when Su Xuan was about to take a break, a cool and extraordinary figure walked in.

Her upper body was covered with a light blue robe and a purple skirt that reached the ground. She was wrapped tightly from head to toe, but this did not affect her graceful figure at all. This conservative dress, combined with her cool temperament, made people want to find out more.

The person who came was the Moon Goddess.

"I hope I am not disturbing Lord Prime Minister by coming here at this time?" The cold voice of the Moon Goddess sounded in the tent.

"Of course not." Su Xuan smiled, because he remembered what happened during the day. The Moon Goddess said that she wanted to discuss with him the mystery of Soul Dragon Travel.

"Isn't Lord Prime Minister particularly interested in the Soul Dragon Swim? I will tell you truthfully anything you want to know." The Moon Goddess sat opposite Su Xuan. A ray of moonlight from outside the tent shone in, reflecting her skin as bright as moonlight. Her hands were placed on her thighs, like solidified jade, with a translucent luster.

Having said that, Su Xuan naturally would not be polite anymore. "Fei Yan said that when she performed Soul Dragon Swimming, the vision was a three-legged golden crow. Yue Shen, when you performed Soul Dragon Swimming, the vision was a jade rabbit. I wonder if you can let me see it?"

The Moon Goddess's face flushed a little, and she seemed to be inexplicably excited. "Master Xiangbang, you don't know that the reason why my sister and I have different visions when we perform the same secret method is because we practice different skills. In addition to the Jade Rabbit vision, I can also use the secret method to extend my wings out of my body."

"It's just that Senior Sister's wings represent the golden wings of the Three-legged Golden Crow, while mine represent the silver-white wings of the Jade Rabbit and the Moon."

"Moon Goddess, you mean that Feiyan can also perform the Jade Rabbit vision?" Su Xuan became even more curious.

The Moon Goddess shook her head. "The Jade Rabbit Vision is much more difficult than stretching its wings."

What this means is that she can do everything that her senior sister can do, but her senior sister may not be able to do everything that she can do.

"Please look, Your Excellency Prime Minister, this is the silver-white wings I display." As she spoke, a pair of lifelike wings stretched out from behind her. Under the reflection of the silver-white light, she seemed to have a holy aura.

Su Xuan looked at the silver-white wings behind her curiously and asked without hesitation, "Can I feel it?"

The Moon Goddess blushed, "If it were anyone else, it wouldn't work, but it's okay for the Prime Minister."

"Why is this?" Su Xuan asked.

"Because Lord Xiangbang is my future husband, only Lord Xiangbang can do this kind of intimate action." When Yue Shen was explaining seriously, her body trembled inexplicably and she felt a little weak. It seemed as if an electric current was flowing through her body, giving her a tingling feeling.

At this moment, Su Xuan felt it carefully. Yan Fei's wings gave him a warm feeling. He felt that they could be used as an electric blanket in winter, while the Moon Goddess gave him a cool feeling like a mountain stream. In summer, people could not help but want to dive into it and take a good wash.

What surprised him even more was that, as he moved, two attractive blushes appeared on the Moon Goddess's cheeks, which, combined with her cold and abstinent temperament, made Su Xuan stunned. Without even thinking, he subconsciously covered her moist lips.

It's still soft, like jelly.

It turns out that women are made of water!

The weather in June was already getting hotter, and now with such a natural air conditioner, Su Xuan naturally didn't want to let it go.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Even through a veil, Su Xuan could still clearly feel that there was a hint of confusion and emotion in the Moon Goddess's eyes.

The only thing that made Su Xuan feel strange was that the Moon Goddess would occasionally look outside the tent. Although she didn't look there often, Su Xuan still noticed it.

The Moon God estimated the time in her mind and thought it was about time, so she took the initiative to ask, "Does the Prime Minister want to experience the Jade Rabbit phenomenon?"

Su Xuan was stunned and confirmed it several times before he was sure that he had heard it correctly.

She said let yourself feel it, not let yourself look at it!

Su Xuan has never been good at saying no, especially when a beautiful woman invites him, so he agreed without hesitation.

As her clothes slipped off, her shoulders were half exposed, and Su Xuan saw the so-called strange vision.

No wonder Chang'e always holds the Jade Rabbit in her arms. The rabbit is so cute, how could Su Xuan not like it? He likes small animals the most! In order to prevent Chang'e from getting tired, Su Xuan decided to hold the rabbit for her.

After performing the Moon Rabbit Vision, the Moon Goddess's senses were heightened several times. Her face flushed and she glanced outside the tent with a puzzled look.

Before coming, she specifically asked someone to invite her senior sister to the tent and asked her to be punctual. Based on her understanding of her senior sister, she would definitely not be late. This was for the purpose of letting her see this scene. When she saw with her own eyes that Su Xuan liked her more and did these intimate actions with her, her expression must have been extremely interesting.

However, what she miscalculated was that her senior sister was still not here, and Su Xuan was getting more and more demanding. If he stayed any longer, she would be taken advantage of tonight.

"Master Xiangbang, are you done?" She forced herself to remain calm and said seriously, "It's getting late now, I should go back."

"Moon Goddess, can we communicate with the Prime Minister another day?"

Su Xuan took a deep breath, agreed to her request, and finally did not forget to touch her red lips.

The Moon Goddess floated away, staggering, and it looked like she might fall at any moment.

Su Xuan wanted to support her when he saw this.

He felt it was a bit of a pity, thinking that if he hadn't made an appointment with Feiyan, he might have been able to accomplish his goal tonight.

Chapter 186 Meteor Shower

In the quiet night, the moon and stars shine together, outlining a beautiful picture.

Feiyan stood on the lawn and looked up at the boundless starry sky. The stars that were not very clear in the past were now clearly visible.

With the help of a telescope, her stargazing has gone a step further.

What concerned her was that the connection between the Red Luan Star in her fate palace and the star in Su Xuan's fate palace was becoming increasingly deeper.

At this moment, the scene of Su Xuan feeding her porridge with a spoon, and the scene of him handing the skewers to her mouth and motioning her to taste it emerged in her mind.

There were also times when the two of them exchanged theories of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and methods of controlling Qi, and each gained something from them.

When she was with him, she always felt more relaxed than ever before.

I don’t know when it started, but when she saw him, she would feel inexplicably happy. When she didn’t see him, she would stare blankly in one direction from time to time, wondering what he was doing and how she could help him. ”

"Fei Yan, you're here so early?" Su Xuan walked to Fei Yan's side and asked softly, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Feiyan shook her head. "Actually, I just arrived not long ago."

In fact, she had arrived here half an hour ago.

Because after she received the news that Su Xuan asked her out, she couldn't practice calmly at all. She wanted to go out for a walk casually, but before she knew it, she arrived at the place they had agreed on.

Feiyan looked at the sky.

In fact, Su Xuan arrived quite early, much earlier than the agreed time.

Thinking of how much he attached to this matter, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and a hint of joy arose in her heart.

"Lord Prime Minister specially asked me to come here today, it's..." She looked at Su Xuan with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"There are no outsiders here. If my wife calls me like this, doesn't it make it seem like we are separate as husband and wife?" Su Xuan held Feiyan's soft hand and looked at her very seriously.

The two looked at each other, and Feiyan finally gave in. She lowered her eyes, her cheeks were flushed, she pursed her red lips and called out "husband".

"Your voice was a little soft. I didn't hear it just now. Can you say it again?" Su Xuan held up Feiyan's white and tender fingers and looked at her expectantly.

"Husband." For some reason, when she called him this, she felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in her heart. Perhaps it was because it meant that she was his wife, and she truly owned him.

"The reason why I specially asked you out today is because there will be a rare spectacle tonight that is rarely seen in a century." Su Xuan smiled sincerely and naturally, "When I heard the news, the first person I thought of was you, Feiyan."

He held Feiyan's soft hand tighter.
