Chapter 642 Purple Orchid Stands, the Treasure of Life and Death
The battle here at the Pope's Camp is over. The remaining Xirong soldiers who heard about the attack on the Pope's Camp and came from all over to support the attack, of course, all stopped at this moment.
The Holy See cannot take care of the situation for the time being. Without the unified command of this behemoth, the Holy See, other kingdoms are fighting on their own, and it is difficult to have control over each other.
Even if the soldiers and horses of the other three dynasties did not use their full strength, such as Li Jing and others, they would take advantage when they could, but they would never take unnecessary risks. The only ones who really went all out were Dawu and Daqin.
However, in a short period of time, the major kingdoms of Xirong fought independently and were unable to be unified. However, they were still beaten and retreated.
Several relatively unlucky small kingdoms have almost lost their troops and horses.
Not to mention the major dynasties and dynasties, but after the war has reached this point, the forces of various schools of thought led by Gu Qingzhu have begun to gradually withdraw.
The spoils of war between the major dynasties are of no use to them. If they continue to stay, they may fall into the quagmire of internal battles between the various forces. Therefore, since the decisive situation has emerged in the battle
The turning point has basically come to an end, so naturally they should withdraw as soon as possible!
Therefore, three days after the surprise attack on the Pope's camp, Gu Qingzhu had directly given up his position as the so-called leader of the alliance and returned to the academy with three hundred academy disciples headed by Fu Yue.
However, the academy suffered a real heavy loss this time. The three thousand disciples, Qi Lingjia, were not just talking about it. Most of the disciples did not have any military power and served as swordsmen and pen officials, managing logistics or making suggestions.
After all, Confucianism is mainly about teaching and educating people, not practicing martial arts. Even if there are martial arts subjects represented by archery in the Confucian curriculum, it does not mean that these students will be taught to be a bunch of muscular men.
However, those academy disciples who truly feel that they have martial arts skills have actually experienced the battlefield. These academy disciples are in their prime, but they are also at the peak of their enthusiasm.
Of course, just bringing back 300 academy disciples does not mean that the academy disciples have really lost so much.
Three thousand disciples are all in uniform, which means not only the disciples of the academy, but also the Confucian disciples from other places. Moreover, a large part of them are disciples who have already completed their studies. Naturally, there is no need for these students to return to the academy.
After that, people from all over the world came to support and left one after another. These people were also part of the heavy losses.
These martial arts masters are really good if they fight alone or in small-scale encounters. Those ordinary soldiers certainly cannot compare with these martial arts masters.
But they have never been trained in battle formations, and their performance in city defense battles is very good, and they can give full play to their advantages of high strength. However, once they enter the field battles and face the tightly formed army, they are almost a mess.
Massacred face to face.
However, the large number of injuries suffered by these martial arts masters soon caused several forces such as Sword Forging City, Supreme Alliance, and Sea Shark Palace to gradually emerge.
Especially Sword Forging City, because of its first-class casting technology, has received the support of Dawu official forces within a few years, and it seems to be a spokesperson for the imperial power in the world. Nowadays, a large number of surrounding forces have suffered heavy losses.
, and also allowed it to see a good opportunity to expand its power.
The leader of the Supreme Alliance, Yu Tian, himself has the strength of a master level, and there is also a half-step celestial level Ying Shuntian hidden inside the door. Under the circumstances of heavy losses to the Dawu Jianghu forces, they have rapidly expanded their influence. In addition to
Except for a few top sects, the Supreme Alliance seems to be starting to grow in size.
According to the report from Zi Nu, it seems that the Sword Forging City wants to forge a legendary magic weapon, the Lingshuang Sword.
And combined with the news from Luowang Shuxiang, I am afraid that the Dawu Dynasty wants to unlock the treasure of Life and Death Chess.
Zi Nu, this one is the Zi Nu who was brought out by Zongheng, and now she is the governor of Luo Wang within the Dawu Dynasty, leading the work of the entire Dawu Dynasty Luo Wei system.
Her ability in this area is actually ranked behind compared to other governors. However, she is not completely without advantages. The Zilanxuan she established has a natural advantage in gathering intelligence.
This advantage, to a certain extent, makes up for her lack of ability to control the remaining envoys.
The life and death chess treasure seems to have been traced back to the end of the Dawu Emperor Dynasty. It has been so long ago that there are only a few legends left. It is said that it was the last year of the Dawu Emperor Dynasty. At that time, the Dawu Emperor Dynasty was unable to return to heaven.
Under such circumstances, he left a treasure for future generations that can make a comeback.
The only thing I didn't expect was that although the Dawu Dynasty finally failed to recover and fell apart, at that time there were talents born in the royal family. Although it did not change the overall situation, it also established the Dawu Dynasty in that troubled time.
, it can be considered that the glory of the Dawu Emperor Dynasty was not completely destroyed.
After that elite established the Dawu Dynasty, although he also tried his best to find the treasure of the Life and Death Chess, that person had a low status in the royal family and was not qualified to touch this matter at that time. When he established
When the Dynasty turned back to look for it, there were not many people or things related to this incident left. Following the few remaining clues, they could only find some clues, and these clues finally fell into place at that time.
On the body of the destroyed Lingshuang Sword.
Later, because some unexpected things happened, this matter has been delayed.
Today, hundreds of years later, the Dawu Dynasty suffered a serious loss of power after several great changes. Only then did they think of the treasure of the Chess of Life and Death. However, there were only a few clues left back then, and even more so now.
It's all elusive, and the only thing I know is the Lingshuang Sword as the key.
It was originally an illusory thing, but now, it is even impossible to determine whether it is true or false. Of course, it is impossible for a dynasty to mobilize troops for this, so it is handed over to those forces in the world.
If Sword Forging City handles this matter well, it will certainly be able to get support and support from the imperial court in the future. Before that, the price that needs to be paid is naturally money and effort. Of course, if this matter is not handled well, then
All the previous promises are gone.
Although in essence, the Dawu Dynasty's court only made a big deal out of this matter. It neither provided money nor hired people, but the Jianghu forces represented by Zhujian City were still happy to accept it.
It sounds like the Jianghu people want to be free and proud of the Jianghu, but that is the way of the lone rangers. If they want to survive as a powerful force, they naturally cannot be on the opposite side of the imperial court. The only way is to be tied to the imperial court.
Only these big forces have the opportunity to further develop and grow.
Therefore, even if you just draw a big pie, there are still many forces who want to take over it. Only by taking over this pie can you have a chance to get support from the court. If you don't take over this big pie,
