Chapter 197 Who holds the fishing rod and who is the bait
Relying on the inheritance of Daozong, Bai Yutian's cultivation speed has increased several times compared with before. He feels that he is not far away from the next realm.
Nowadays, martial arts practice in the Great Zhou Dynasty is divided into external physical training and internal Qi training. Only internal Qi cultivation has a realm, while the realm of external physical training is relatively vague.
However, Daozong cultivates both internal and external aspects, taking into account both the body and the inner Qi, so that the inner Qi can be integrated into the body and exert greater power.
Bai Yutian had already had several copies of the Dao Sect's inheritance copied, and when he returned to Tailin City, he sent them to Shen Yusheng so that he could continue his research and increase the strength of the Martial Arts Academy.
"Sir, let's have a cup of tea!" Di Ke's voice came over.
Bai Yutian looked up and saw Di Ke walking in with a pot of tea.
Originally, Bai Yutian asked Long Wei to send Di Ke out of Xining Prefecture, but Di Ke sneaked back while Long Wei was not paying attention, and finally found Da Zhou's grain transport troops, and together they came to Xi Sheng Prefecture City.
Bai Yutian was helpless, this Di Ke was really like brown sugar, he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he got rid of it.
Sometimes Bai Yutian is also puzzled. Di Ke obviously doesn't know martial arts, but his body is extremely flexible and he can even escape from the hands of Long Wei. It's really incredible.
Now Bai Yutian can only let Di Ke stay here. Now that Hongcheng and Jiangcheng have been occupied by the Shanu Kingdom, it is even more dangerous to leave Xining Prefecture at this moment.
"Sir, you are studying the Taoist inheritance again." Di Ke came over and looked at Bai Yutian with a pair of spiritual eyes.
Every time he touched Di Ke's eyes, Bai Yutian's heart would jump inexplicably.
As the saying goes, the eyes are the windows to the soul, and Dick's soul must be very clean because her eyes are clear and flawless.
"That's right." Bai Yutian touched Di Ke's head and said.
The Daozong inheritance is mysterious and complex. Bai Yutian has been studying it, but he can only scratch the surface.
His understanding of martial arts training is still relatively shallow and cannot compare to Shen Yusheng's experience and inheritance passed down from generation to generation.
Although with the help of Zhao Chuxue and Dian Wei, there are still some things that I don't understand.
It is hard to imagine how prosperous the Great Zhou Dynasty was at the beginning of its founding, and how powerful the Great Zhou Dynasty was in intimidating the surrounding countries.
Di Ke didn't say much. He saw Bai Yutian studying these inheritances, stayed for a while and then left.
Bai Yutian didn't know if it was his misunderstanding. He always felt that Di Ke seemed to have something on his mind right now.
However, there are many things that Bai Yutian can't do anything about. There are still no clues about Sister Di Ke until now.
Bai Yutian planned to wait for things to happen here, and then go to Mingzhou to look for clues in Di Ke's hometown.
After Xihuang and Beiyuan, there is the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Thirteen states including Qizhou are located here. It is currently the most prosperous place in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
However, except for Qizhou and Yongzhou, people's lives in other places are not so healthy.
Then there is Longxi. Bai Yutian used to provide disaster relief in Longxi, but now this territory is divided between Dashun Kingdom and Dachuan Kingdom. The border between the two is Longxi.
Beyond the territory of Dashun and Dachuan Kingdoms, there are the southeastern states of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are mountains and rivers there, many rivers, beautiful scenery, and it is also a prosperous land.
In addition to the Yuan River in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the other main river of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Genjiang River, passes through the southeastern states.
There, there is also a saying in Jiangnan that the human world is better than the heaven.
It's a pity that the current connection between Dazhou and the southeast is very troublesome and difficult to manage.
Moreover, it borders the Nanyuan Kingdom, and the southeastern states with insufficient military strength are easily vulnerable to invasion by the Nanyuan Kingdom.
Bai Yutian was extremely anxious, but he had no choice but to take one step at a time.
It had been five days since the Great Zhou Dynasty deployed in Xishengzhou City, but no large army from the Shanu Kingdom had arrived.
In the past five days, the Zhou army had been in a state of tension, but they only consumed food in vain and no fighting broke out.
"Your Majesty, Hongcheng and Jiangcheng have no signs of sending troops."
In the main hall, Zhao Zhen reported to Bai Yu Tianhui.
Bai Yutian nodded, "Everyone, what do you think about this?"
"Your Majesty, since Shanu Kingdom is not in chaos, we can only let them take the initiative to cause chaos." Xiao Li stood up and said.
At this moment, Jing Ling should have arrived at the entrance of the valley and was about to enter the territory of Shanu Kingdom. If all the defenders there were not lured out, Jing Ling and the others would have no chance of survival once they were discovered.
"Why the chaos?" Bai Yutian asked next.
"Bypass the main city and take the initiative to attack Shanu Kingdom. I am willing to lead an army of fifty thousand and attract a hundred thousand troops from the border of Shanu Kingdom." Xiao Li looked at Bai Yutian with a determined look.
After these few days of rest, the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army has been restored, and it is fully capable of marching and attacking.
"This is really the only way right now." Bai Yutian sighed and said.
There is no turning back for them. Now that they have set foot here, they must succeed.
"I will give you another 30,000 soldiers, and we must hold back all the border troops of Shanu Kingdom." Bai Yutian continued.
Xiao Li heard Bai Yutian's words and quickly dissuaded him, "No, there are still 180,000 Shanu soldiers in Hongcheng and Jiangcheng. Once they attack the city, Your Majesty, you will be in great danger."
"I can still run away if I can't fight. There are so many of us, we can't all waste it here."
Bai Yutian was very resolute and refused to listen to Xiao Li's dissuasion. Xiao Li had no choice but to agree.
Soon, Xiao Li ordered 80,000 soldiers and rushed towards the border of Shanu Kingdom.
In order to put pressure on the Shanu Kingdom, Xiao Li also pretended to attack several nearby cities, causing the Shanu Kingdom defenders to panic and ask for help everywhere.
And Xiao Li's goal is obvious, which is the border of Shanu Kingdom, or in other words, Ansa City, the capital of Shanu Kingdom.
If Cui Shou's 400,000-strong army had not been destroyed, it would have been impossible for the Great Zhou Dynasty to rush past this line of defense. However, now the Shanu Kingdom simply does not have enough troops to guard the border.
"Report, Dazhou sent 80,000 people to attack the border."
On the wall of Hongcheng, a soldier ran up to report.
On the city wall, stood two tall men and a graceful woman.
These three people are An Dun Maochang, Cui Shou and Miss Pei.
"Dazhou has indeed sent troops." An Dun Maochang said excitedly.
"Humph, of course they have to send troops. If they don't send troops, wouldn't their work be in vain?" Cui Shou said with a sneer.
His whole body was shaking, which was a sign of excitement. He suffered the greatest humiliation in his military career last time, and this time, he would pay it back a thousand times.
Also, he wants to avenge Shi Chen, Yan Xian and others.
"Then let's take action." Miss Pei said softly, her voice full of temptation, "The Emperor of Zhou used himself as bait and wanted us to take the bait. Let's see who is the fisher this time."
