"The direction of the meteorite... seems to be Mobei?"
When the ladies on the city wall looked up and saw the falling star, Baoer immediately thought of the head of the family.
Isn’t Mobei the place where the head of the family led his troops?
Coincidentally, everyone thought of this.
"The stars are falling... The Emperor Guangwu had the same thing in the past. Could it be that..." Guo Jia was slightly surprised and stopped talking halfway through.
There are some things that you know in your heart, but that doesn't mean you can just talk about them openly.
"Madam, could it be... that the head of the family did this?" The little girl looked at Zhang Jiao.
Being so far away, everyone present was unsure, and only Zhang Jiao could give the answer.
"It's him." Zhang Jiao nodded clearly.
"Because only Qingjun can do it."
Not only that, the reason why Liu Zhaoqing dared to lead 800 cavalrymen to the north to gamble was definitely because he had a powerful trump card. Although Liu Zhaoqing had never told anyone, this trump card was now obvious.
What kind of ability is it to be able to summon the stars?
No one was clear about it, but everyone understood that the biggest help they could do for Liu Zhaoqing now was to defend Changping City.
Guo Jia commanded the soldiers on the city wall to defend, while Zhang Jiao once again mobilized greater strength and injected it into Lu Hong's body not far away.
In a short time, hundreds of Xianbei siege troops were killed by the sudden surge of plants.
Not far outside the city, in front of the Xianbei army, the tall and strong Tan Shihuai stood between the Xianbei generals and the priests, watching the scene expressionlessly.
Since he issued the siege order, the Xianbei siege force has suffered more than three thousand casualties.
But as the Chanyu, he didn't seem to care about the casualties in front of him. He was not moved at all when facing the dead or murdered soldiers.
Because even if the dead soldiers are completely eliminated, they are nothing more than consumables.
Possessing the Holy Spirit, he has an almost endless number of elite soldiers under his command.
The more battles he fights, the stronger he will become.
This is the capital that allows him to covet the world.
At this time, the generals around him were also attracted by the flames of the meteorites in the distance.
Baoer could see that the star was falling towards Mobei. As a nation that had lived in the Mobei grasslands for a long time, these Xianbei generals could see it as well.
Almost everyone lost their composure and confidence. Faced with this meteorite from outer space, they all felt that it was too coincidental.
Since no one thought that these stars were summoned by a mortal, the first thing the Xianbei generals suspected in their hearts was whether this was a punishment from heaven.
Someone looked at the priest, and the priest frowned deeply at this time. He closed his eyes but could not see anything.
But there were also some powerful priests who got a glimpse of it.
He rode his horse to the side of the Chanyu and whispered to the tall Chanyu:
"Chanyu, Mobei...seems to be in great trouble."
The Chanyu did not move at all and continued to look at Changping City calmly.
The priest understood that this was a signal for him to continue, so he bowed his head humbly and explained in Xianbei language: "Just now, I used the power of the Holy Spirit to observe that the Holy Spirit had... not-so-good changes."
"The source of the Holy Spirit Ancestor has fluctuated... The meteorite in the sky may hit the Holy Spirit."
"The Wuhuan people have long had ulterior motives towards us. They are unwilling to submit to the Chanyu and want to dominate the Holy Spirit Ancestor. This time the Wuhuan people will definitely attack our tribe. Although the Chanyu has sent a group of wise kings to lead the imperial guards to ambush and intercept them, but... now we have Tianxing."
In addition to the sacrifices, many generals also came forward to express their concerns to the great Chanyu.
Tan Shihuai's gaze finally shifted from afar to the general beside him.
"Do you think Qiu Liju can summon the stars?"
The plain voice sounded like the beating of a drum, and rang clearly in the ears of the generals around.
"He has ambition, but he has no ability." Tan Shihuai continued, "Wuhuan is a small country with few people. The tribes and soldiers have no discipline. They can be defeated by 40 Han people and 50,000 tribesmen, but they will become nothing more than a handful of dust."
"But, Chanyu, since it was not summoned by Qiuliju, it should be a punishment from heaven... Shouldn't we go back? If the restriction in the Holy Spirit is broken..." A tall and mighty general beside Tan Shihuai advised again.
"Budugen, do you really believe in divine punishment?" Tan Shihuai smiled sarcastically.
"If there really is a 'heavenly punishment', we would have been exterminated the moment we entered the Holy Spirit."
The few generals who knew the truth about the Holy Spirit fell silent upon hearing this.
But what Tan Shihuai said next surprised them.
"Qiu Liju can't summon Tianxing, and neither can I, but there is one person who can do it." Tan Shihuai said the name: "Liu Zhaoqing."
"Isn't that...Marquis Changping?"
Liu Zhaoqing's name became known to the Xianbei people because of the Battle of Wuhuan Mountain.
"Yes, our tribe has been attacking the city for such a long time, but we still haven't seen his figure on the city wall." A Xianbei general finally reacted.
"Not good! Could it be that Liu Zhaoqing is...going to launch a sneak attack on my clan?!"
"How many people can he take with him?"
"Think about what the Chanyu said just now. Maybe that star was summoned by him!"
Just when everyone was about to fall into panic again, Tan Shihuai spoke again.
"I have already thought of what you are thinking of, and have taken it into account in my plan. My plan originally lacks a Han emperor. Only the true dragon power of the Han emperor can extend the life of the Holy Spirit for another thirty years."
"And Liu Zhaoqing is better than the false emperor who was righteous but not upright, and better than the Han emperor who has lost his destiny. He is the most suitable 'sacrifice'."
Budugen looked at the Chanyu in surprise: "What is the Chanyu's plan?"
"Since Liu Zhaoqing has arrived in Mobei and has mastered the ability to attack the Holy Spirit, then this plan is already halfway accomplished." Tan Shihuai said calmly.
"Next, we just have to wait."
"Originally, only a very few people knew about this plan, but now that Liu Zhaoqing, who has the destiny, has joined the game, there is no need to worry. Ke Bineng, you should tell them about my plan to avoid unnecessary worries."
"Yes." Kebineng on the side lowered his head and told everyone about the Chanyu's strategy. After listening to it, everyone was impressed by the Chanyu's foresight and wisdom.
Less than a moment later, the sky in the direction of Mobei suddenly became distorted.
The generals around suddenly felt the power in their bodies surging up like a sudden sandstorm.
All the soldiers were extremely surprised, and they all looked at the Chanyu with admiration.
"The Chanyu's plan has been accomplished! May God bless us Xianbei!"
The tangible growth in strength meant that Tan Shihuai’s plan had succeeded.
Even Tan Shihuai himself showed a look of satisfaction, and the women on the city wall over there also discovered that the offensive momentum of the Xianbei troops had suddenly increased by more than one level.
Blood was oozing from the corners of Lu Hong's mouth. His daughter had already gone to join the battle. After thinking for a few seconds, Guo Jia looked at Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Jiao remained silent.
"Will not."
Although both smart people knew that the sudden surge in the strength of the Xianbei army must be related to the Holy Spirit, that is to say, Liu Zhaoqing's plan to rush to the north to kill the Holy Spirit may have failed.
However, Zhang Jiao didn't believe that Liu Zhaoqing would just disappear into the sky like that.
"Marquis Changping is dead! Why don't you surrender?!"
Suddenly a loud shout came from outside the city.
When Lu Hong heard this, he was stunned, and the other soldiers guarding the city tower were also in disbelief.
Guo Jia immediately reacted and shouted, "Don't fall for the barbarians' trick! Defend the tower!"
Having said that, the look in Guo Jia's eyes began to become uncertain.
She had been observing Tan Shihuai. The Xianbei Chanyu had always maintained a calm expression, but now she saw a smile on his face.
She was very familiar with this smile; it was the satisfaction of having accomplished a great plan.
There is no doubt that the Chanyu must have known that Liu Zhaoqing was going to launch a surprise attack on the Xianbei headquarters, which means that Liu Zhaoqing might... have really fallen into the Chanyu's trap.
If Liu Zhaoqing really died, it would only be a matter of time before Changping City, which had been defending for almost a day and a night, was breached.
And the name "Yellow Turban" will also return to dust with his death.
"Madam..." Lu Hong, who was trying her best to activate her ability, looked at Zhang Jiao who was holding the Book of the Earth with difficulty.
She wanted to know what had happened to Liu Zhaoqing. For her, it was worth it even if it cost her serious injuries.
Zhang Jiao lowered her eyebrows, she felt that the Book of Earth in her hand lacked a connection.
"Will not."
He still repeated what he had just said, but his tone was a little weaker.
Lu Hong heard it, and Baoer beside her also heard it.
“How could it be…” Baoer’s face turned pale.
Zhang Jiao shook her head: "No, Qingjun won't leave like this."
"On the contrary, he must need our support now."
After saying that, she raised the Book of the Earth in her hand, and then her face showed determination. She never thought that Liu Zhaoqing would fail, and this time was no exception.
"Just like that time in Plain City, Qingjun, you just need our help."
“But… at that time, the head of the family was only one city away from us, but now the head of the family… is so far away from us.” Baoer said softly.
Of course Zhang Jiao also knew that the distance was too far and she could not contact Liu Zhaoqing at all, nor could she provide him with any help.
The connection between the Book of Earth and the Book of Man is based on the premise that they are not far apart. This is the accurate conclusion the two people reached after many experiments.
But now Zhang Jiao must break this "rule". Only in this way can she save Liu Zhaoqing and save her Qingjun.
"Baoer, Fengxiao, Honger, Xiaonv..." Zhang Jiao called the names of the people around her softly.
"There are also Xiao Pi, Bo Cai, Zhou Cang..."
"The soldiers defending the city, the young men who provided assistance to the soldiers..."
"All the people in this city, all the Yellow Turbans..."
The Book of Earth in Zhang Jiao's hand suddenly floated slowly from her hand to the sky, and its whole body began to radiate a strong golden light.
Her voice was as soft as her usual conversation, but it could be heard clearly by everyone.
"General Tiangong needs our strength, and I need your light."
"The Yellow Turbans live on the yellow earth. For those who have no gifts from heaven, the 'gift from heaven' is ourselves."
"Please, give me everything you have. The Great Sage Master promises this."
"The barbarians have invaded Changping. I, the Great and Good Teacher, will live and die with Changping and my people."
The aura of Zhang Jiao's body at this time did not seem to be a god-given power at all, but it was extremely surging.
Guo Jia looked at Zhang Jiao's change in shock, and she felt that something in her heart seemed to be loosening.
This special power from Zhang Jiao actually... made Guo Jia feel that what he had lost could be restored...
This is the power of the Yellow Turbans, and it comes from the people's wishes.
And what can this collective willpower of the people, which far outnumbers those given by God, accomplish?
Seems to be able to do everything.
Guo Jia closed his eyes, relaxed his mind and accepted the guidance of the light emitted from the Book of the Earth.
The same goes for Baoer and others nearby.
This was true for the soldiers defending the city and all the people in the city.
Even though they didn't know how to do it, they felt the call from the Great Sage Master and had almost unconditional trust in him, which made them give all their weak power to the Book of Earth without any hesitation.
Although the power of one person is weak, thousands or tens of thousands of people gathered together can cover the sky.
The light of the Book of Earth suddenly became brighter, and it flew into the sky at a high speed like a meteor against the wind.
The Xianbei people on the city wall, who were originally in high spirits, suddenly discovered that the soldiers guarding the city on the city wall also suddenly became more moraleful, and at the same time, a strong golden light emanated from their bodies.
A soldier guarding the city picked up a bow and arrow and shot it casually. The arrow actually pierced through the dead soldiers and went straight into the Xianbei army in the distance, killing four or five people.
This kind of strength can only be achieved by outstanding people, but the soldiers themselves are just common people from farmers' families with good physique.
