Chapter 484
484 The war that affects the world
The siege of the Jin capital would naturally be resolved.
The Qin people who had lost their men and generals knew that the remaining forces of Great Yan were stronger than them, and that they would be finished if they continued to fight. So, they naturally would not continue to stay outside Jin city and wait for death.
After that, the Yan Kingdom’s Army, after the initial rest and reorganization, set off and entered Jin capital in a few days.
The people of Jin were very enthusiastic. They displayed a rather sincere attitude and set up a banquet outside the city. The dishes on the table were all rare and expensive.
At the banquet, they sincerely thanked the Yan Kingdom for their help. If they didn’t have any reinforcements, their country would really be destroyed in this wave.
The destruction of a country was a terrible thing. For the people of Jin, they had already felt this pressure decades ago when Qin State gradually became aggressive.
At the banquet, looking at the enthusiastic Jin people, Wei Yun knew not to hit a smiling person and was too embarrassed to speak ill of them.
However, there was one important matter that didn’t change because of the attitude of Jin people.
Wei Yun made a request,
The Yan Army wanted to enter the city, and both sides were required to have a unified command. The high-level military of the Yan Kingdom would be in charge of the deployment of military forces.
This incident caused the atmosphere at the banquet to turn cold.
The combination of the unified command and the Yan Army entering the city for a stroll meant that Jin would be completely under the command of others, right?
To a certain extent, if the people of Yan country had malicious intentions, then Jin country wouldn’t even have a chance to resist.
Although Jin country still had a large piece of land under its control, it had already mobilized many elites to protect the capital. This included the Emperor of Jin, the only Dharma stage powerhouse left in Jin, and the most elite army, Youyou.
Although the number of people from Yan Kingdom was far less than that of Jin Kingdom, the presence of four Dharma laksanas was already a huge pressure.
In the beginning, the people of Jin hoped that the Yan Army led by Weiyun could stay outside the city safely. The welcoming banquet was arranged outside the city. After considering this, they did not dare to let the Yan Army enter the capital.
However, at this time, they still couldn’t avoid this problem.
The people of Dajin tried their best to reject this proposal.
It was impossible to reject him directly and forcefully. In the current situation, they were like fish on a chopping block, and Jin country had to rely on others to survive. After offending the Yan Kingdom, the Qin Kingdom’s next attack would not be something they could withstand.
They could only use other methods to move him with emotion and reason. They could even directly hint and give some benefits to the middle and high-level officials of the Yan Kingdom, hoping that they could help speak up for them.
However, this was something that involved the fundamental interests of the country, so there would be no concessions.
Wei Yun gave the Jin people seven days to consider.
In these seven days, the Wei Army would be stationed outside the city and wait for the final reply.
The people of Yan had never said what would happen if the people of Jin refused this proposal.
These words were a little hurtful to say, but there was no doubt that it would not be a good thing.
Previously, there were five Dharma adepts from the state of Qin who led the Army to besiege the Jin capital. The Yan Army, who had been able to repel the Qin Army and even kill a Dharma laksana of the Qin State, was obviously an opponent that they could not defend against.
Would there really be people who thought that the Qin Army did not attack Jin because they had defended well?
Previously, when they were besieged by the people of Qin, Jin’s Army still had the belief to defend to the death because they knew that the Yan Army was on the way to help. But now, if they were to fall out with the people of Yan Kingdom and Wei Yun started to lead the Yan Army to attack Jin, who else could they count on? Were they hoping that the people of Qin would come and save them?
This was clearly impossible.
……
Seven days passed by in a hurry. In the end, the people of Jin still chose to agree to Weiyun’s conditions.
They had no other choice.
After moving to the Jin capital, Wei Yun did not go too far.
Of course, the administrative power of Dajin was still in the hands of the Imperial court. What Weiyun wanted to take away was the command of Jin’s National Army.
This matter could only be carried out with the cooperation of the Imperial court of Jin.
The most important one was, of course, the only Dharma plane expert left in the Jin capital.
Weiyun didn’t launch a counterattack immediately after receiving the command of the Jin army.
The Jin government was very anxious, but Weiyun didn’t care much about it.
This battle was destined to be a long one. It could not be settled in a short time.
Since Dajin was the invaded party, it was understandable that they were eager to take back their territory. However, this mentality of Jin people couldn’t change the established strategy of Yan Kingdom.
Yan’s current war strategy was to rely on the territories of Jin, Chu, and Liang as the battlefields to fight with Qin. The war would probably last for a long time.
The reason why this was the case was because of the needs of the war situation and also because of Lu Qing’s thoughts.
The so-called war situation meant that in terms of National Strength, Qin and Shu were stronger than Yan. Even if Yan had already conquered the territory of Qi, Wu and Wei, it was still the same.
The great Qin wasn’t just a matter of one or two years. A long time ago, they were already the strongest Celestial Empire in the era of the nine empires. Their strength was extraordinary. At the same time, the Shu country could at least be considered as a mid-tier country. And the Alliance between the Qin and Shu did not go through war, but peacefully. This also meant that the power of the Shu country had not been weakened.
This also meant that the Western cultivation world ruled by Qin State had almost never been weakened.
However, the eastern cultivation world was different. The Yan Kingdom had unified the eastern cultivation world through war. Moreover, since a long time ago, the entire eastern part of the cultivation world had been plagued by war, far more turbulent than the West. Before the rise of the Yan Kingdom, the four great immortal kingdoms had never stopped fighting each other.
This was the comparison.
However, with the support of the central Jin, Liang and Chu countries, this battle could be fought on a regular battlefield. After all, the Qin Shu Alliance was two against seven. No matter how strong they were, or how weak the seven countries were, there was still a difference.
If Lu Qing were to participate in the battle, he should be able to defeat the other party in a head-on battle.
If there was no news of Godking law’s arrival, Lu Qing would have really come. Wouldn’t it be nice to end the war as soon as possible and then farm to deal with the world-ending crisis?
However, this was clearly not appropriate. If Lu Qing lost the battle against Godking law, who might or might not have descended, the outcome would be disastrous.
All in all, time was on his side.
Lu Qing’s plan was that as long as Godking Lu did not appear, he would not personally take action.
At this moment, he was in his closed-door cultivation room on Yuyan mountain. It was a good time to cultivate.
He didn’t have anything to do, so he quickly raised his cultivation.
To put it bluntly, if he were to become an insightful emptiness realm cultivator now, what would he be afraid of? What Godking law? everyone just had to fight fair and square to see who was more awesome.
Ever since he had received the information that God King law was about to descend, Lu Qing had been working hard to increase his cultivation level. All sorts of methods that could be used were used.
Even when there was a war at the front line, he would only take a look through his consciousness form after the battle began. He used a few battle exchange options to turn the situation around. When he saw that there was no danger, he ran back to cultivate.
Under this kind of desperate cultivation, he had achieved quite a good result in seven years.
The current Lu Qing had already become a cultivator at the sixth level of the divine sea realm. He was not far from the late stage.
Under normal circumstances, it was not surprising that a war that involved the entire cultivation world would last for hundreds of years. As long as that Godking law did not personally make a move and used Jin, Liang, and Chu as the battlefields, regardless of which side had the upper hand, it would be quite normal for them to drag each other out, cross swords, and fight for decades.
Lu Qing had already thought it through and set two bottom lines for himself.
Firstly, he would not come out until any of the Three Kingdoms was destroyed and the Qin Army invaded the territory of Yan.
Secondly, the ‘Godking law’ that he had heard about would not appear before he personally participated in the battle.
He would only make a move if either of these two bottom lines were broken.
Before that, he just had to work hard in his cultivation.
……
Lu Qing’s judgment of the situation was generally correct.
If the battle situation was divided into three parts, the situation in the North, where Jin was at, had improved a lot after the arrival of the Yan Army led by Weiyun and the rescue of Jin.
After that, more elite troops of Yan Kingdom were transferred to Jin Kingdom. At the same time, Great Jin’s war potential was also squeezed out.
The combined army of cultivators from both sides was close to 200000. Five Dharma plane cultivators led the Army and began to march west, trying to conquer the land that Jin had lost.
Of course, it was not as if the people of Qin had no ability to resist. They were in a defensive position, but the reinforcements from the Qin country were also endless. There were also four Dharma adepts.
The armies of both sides used the area of about two provinces as the battlefield. The Battlefront was very long, and the scale was also very large. They were fighting each other to the death.
Every day, many cultivators died. The two states had almost become a huge meat grinder, sucking in cultivators one after another.
The mortals in this area were the most miserable.
Under normal circumstances, cultivators would not intentionally involve mortals in a war. On one hand, it was against the heavenly Dao to slaughter mortals wantonly. On the other hand, there was not much meaning in it.
However, what he said here was that he would not intentionally involve mortals. If the two houses were to fight and the battlefield happened to be near a mortal town or village, then both sides would definitely not take it too seriously and would still fight as they should.
If the fighting ability of the cultivators was limited to the foundation building stage or even the initial enlightenment stage, it might be fine, but the destructive power was relatively so. However, once the scale of the battle reached the initial enlightenment stage and above, under the situation where both sides could not hold back the fire and went all out, the scope and destructive power of the battle would be much more fierce.
As for the mortals, they suffered a great calamity.
It was almost impossible for them to predict when a fierce battle would break out between them or their hometown. Even if he knew in advance, how could he run away with his legs?
As for becoming a refugee and escaping from this area that had already become a battlefield, how difficult would that be? Not to mention how difficult it was to abandon one’s hometown and industry, the land in the cultivation world was very, very large! A state was ten thousand miles to the left and right. How long would it take to walk out on foot?
Perhaps they had just arrived at a safer place yesterday, but the battle between the two sides had been pushed back and forth. If they didn’t really run to the back, they wouldn’t be truly safe.
But what could he do? Not leaving and waiting for death?
No one knew how many mortals had died in the war between cultivators.
Not many people even cared about this matter.
These mortals were all subjects of Jin country in name. However, Xuanji Great Jin was a celestial nation, and the only people who were truly cared about were cultivators.
……
The Yan and Jin Allied forces were at the West of Jin. While they were fighting with Qin, the border between Liang and Chu was not idle either.
The intensity and scale of the war were far less intense than that of Dajin. After all, the Qin’s main target of attack was the North. The Shu state had sent out some troops to invade the Chu State. Both sides had started fighting, but there were no signs of Dharma adepts making a move. As for the country of Liang, the two sides had not even started fighting yet.
However, no one dared to be careless in this situation.
Even though the country of Liang had not been invaded, they did not dare to sit still.
The north and south were already in Flames of War. The Qin State did not attack them, so they definitely did not have good intentions.
During this period of time, the country of Liang’s envoys were active in various places.
The Yan country’s attitude was also very good. Although Jin, Liang, Chu and Yan Qi had not completely formed a military alliance, in fact, they were almost there.
The country of Liang had already prepared a huge Army. Furthermore, they were also considering using this Army when they realized that they could not just stand by and do nothing.
Before this, they had considered whether to send this Army to the North to enter Jin and join the Yan-Jin Alliance. They wanted to give the Qin people a heavy blow and drive them out.
However, after thinking about it, he realized that he also needed to defend his own country’s territory. The people of the Qin country did not do their best. Once their internal forces were empty, it was not impossible for the people of the Qin country to directly attack them.
But in the end, they still chose to take the initiative to attack-to the West and directly attack the Qin territory!
