Chapter 798 – Tianmo Method (Fragment)

Gaia 4th year, 1st month, 17th day, Yongren City.

The sky had just turned bright, and hundreds of thousands of Guards Legion Corps troops crossed the Dongchuan border and entered the Swordsman City territory in the Shu Lands.

The huge army formed a long snake, slowly proceeding forward on the uneven mountain path as they headed toward Protruding Dragon Pass. At the same time, Shihu led five thousand mountain barbarian young men, avoiding all eyes and ears as they headed toward Jinsha River. Near Jinsha River, many ships were gathered secretly by the local officials and placed in the port.

The flames of war in the southwest that had just stopped were reignited once more.

At the same time, the second legion of the Dragon Legion Corps led by Shi Wanshui and the 4th legion led by Luo Shixin had already left Tengyue Prefecture up north to Dongchuan Prefecture. They were ready to be thrown into the Shu Lands battle at any moment.

The cleanup of Tengyue Prefecture would instead be left to the 3rd legion of the Dragon Legion Corps led by Zhang Liao.

The 2nd and 4th legions were the main force that the Dragon Legion had in defending the north of Yunnan Province. As the Shu Lands war had not begun, the new round of military organization had not been completed.

Ouyang Shuo was planning to wait till the Battle of Black Iron City had ended. At that time, he would take back the Guards Legion Corps prisoners then gather the four marshals and Admiral Zheng He to discuss the matter.

This kind of military meetings would form the future structure of the highest level of military discussions.

Based on the estimations by the Military Affairs Bureau, after deducting the casualties sustained and adding the mountain barbarian warriors recruited from Tengyu Prefecture, they could probably expand another three to four War Fighting Legions.

However, how to split up these troops posed a big problem. The four legion corps all hoped to get one or two of the numbers but exactly how to go about this would depend on their future plans.

Shu Lands, Swordsman City.

“The Guards Legion Corps as the vanguard and the Dragon Legion Corps as the backup. To fetch this batch of prisoners, Shanhai City actually went all out and mobilized four War Fighting Legions?” After listening to the intel reports, Feng Qingyang felt a little unsettled.

Feng Qingyue said, “Brother, there’s still time to negotiate with him.”

“Negotiate? No, let’s wait till they take down Protruding Dragon Pass. With just them cavalry, how will they even siege the pass?” Feng Qingyang was a person who cared a lot about his face. If not, he would not be trying so hard to cling on.

Feng Qingyue shook her head, “So what if the Guards Legion Corps cannot take down Protruding Dragon Pass quickly? What will happen when the two legions of the Dragon Legion Corps arrive? Even if the Protruding Dragon Pass is an iron fortress, it will still end up destroyed by the Shanhai City Army. One must not forget the enemy not only has a new type of cannon but also a flying force.”

“Shanhai City has a hundred ways to go about attacking the Protruding Dragon Pass. During the Battle of Guilin, weren’t all three passes taken easily? If we wait till the enemy takes it down, it would be too late. If their four War Fighting Legions enter the Shu Lands, it’s enough to take down the entire Jiangyang Prefecture. Big Brother, do you want to gamble with the fate of our territory?”

When Feng Qingyang heard her analysis, he fell silent for a long while.

Actually, he felt a little regretful in his heart. However, to save his face, he refused to yield. Yesterday, he tried to test out the attitude of Di Chen and the rest, and all of them were hesitant and did not talk about sending troops.

Swordsman City was relatively independent of its allies, and they were somewhat separate from the alliance. If it were not for their secret manual contributions, the Feng Family would not even be part of the six powers in China.

Swordsman City was a massive gap behind compared to the other territories in the Yanhuang Alliance.

Especially after rumors spread about the flirting between Swordsman City and the Shu Han Regime. Afterward, Di Chen and the others start to drift away from him. Hence, how would Di Chen and the others send help to save him from the Shanhai City Army’s attack?

Feng Qingyang had not had a close-up view of Shanhai City before all of this. This time, they had gathered four War Fighting Legions in one breath, double of the overall numbers of Swordsman City.

Only after that did he truly feel the wide gap between them. Without the name of Yanhuang Alliance, in front of Shanhai City, Swordsman City was nothing.

Such an understanding would undoubtedly make one depressed.

Feng Qingyang raised his head and looked at his sister, “If they have the guts to attack Black Iron City, I’ll kill all the 15 thousand prisoners.”

“Definitely not!” Feng Qingyue was astonished, “The Guards Legion Corps is the pride of Shanhai City. If we kill them, this matter will know no end. One battle is enough to give us a headache, but an entire war will be able to drag down the entire city.”

Feng Qingyang froze and awkwardly said, “I spoke thoughtlessly.”

Feng Qingyue reminded solemnly, “Let’s hope that is so. Big brother, stop, stop having such thoughts.”

As she said these words, Feng Qingyue asked worriedly, “Big brother, are you facing some cultivation problems? Why are you losing control of your emotions?”

The cultivation method that Feng Qingyang practiced was not the Feng Family hereditary technique but a secret manual that he had obtained in the game. Due to the mysterious and weird nature of the technique, Feng Qingyue was afraid that the cultivation of the technique had affected her brother.

In history, there were many who had personality changes due to cultivation. Thinking back to the unorthodox and weird nature of that technique made Feng Qingyue really worried.

Who knew that Feng Qingyang would get impatient when he heard this question? He waved his hand and said, “Ok ok. Let me think about it, you can leave!”

When Feng Qingyue heard that, she silently looked at her brother before getting up and leaving.

‘I should report this matter to father. I cannot let big brother do anything unsalvageable.’ Thinking about that, Feng Qingyue walked toward the Xiyuan.

The Xiyuan was the place where the Feng Family lived; it was a really quiet area that was suitable for cultivation.

The Feng Family was a group of martial arts maniacs. As a result, after they entered the game, they all focused on martial arts. Even the family territory was left to Feng Qingyang and Feng Qingyue.

This resulted in Feng Qingyang’s arrogant character.

Of course, they might seem like they did not care, but if something really happened, the words of the older generation would still be really important. … Xiyuan Sky Sword Courtyard.

The Feng Family Head was less than 50 years old. He was well built, and his face was filled with energy. Just by looking at him, one would know that he was a cultivator. Listening to his daughter’s report, Feng Xiaotian frowned, “I did not expect Qingyang to actually cause such trouble. He is so arrogant that he does not know how much danger the family is in. I am so disappointed.”

“Dad, I’m worried that his cultivation might be facing problems. Although he was arrogant before, he was not so stubborn.” Feng Qingyue did not strike him when he was down.

Feng Xiaotian nodded, “That might be a possibility. The Tianmo Method that he is training in is not the full technique. Furthermore, it’s a technique of the demonic path. If he was not careful, he might have walked onto the wrong path.”

“How about this? Tonight, I’ll go check on Qingyang.”

Not mentioning other things, Feng Qingyang was truly a cultivation genius. Not only was his bone structure great, but his comprehension was also exceptional. Regardless of the difficulty of the cultivation method, he could easily understand it.

With the Tianmo Method as an example, only Feng Qingyang in the entire Feng Family could understand the meaning within it.

Feng Tianxiao was naturally really proud of this son and saw him as the chance for the family to rise up. Learning that his cultivation might have faced some problems, he would obviously feel nervous.

Feng Qingyue nodded and left.

Looking at his daughter’s back view, Feng Xiaotian was filled with many thoughts.

1st month 19th day, Protruding Dragon Pass.

Without a care about what was going on in the Feng Family, the attack of the Guards Legion Corps started. In just two days, the vanguard forces had arrived at Protruding Dragon Pass.

The vanguard was the Heavy Armored Mountain Barbarian Infantry Division.

Considering the treacherous terrain that had many hills, the army would easily be attacked; especially cavalry forces. If they were disturbed, there would be no way to turn around.

This was also the reason why the Shu Lands were hard to take down.

The Guards Legion Corps being able to pass was due to the 10 times expansion of the game. If not, there would not even be this mountain path and the only way to enter would be through Jinsha River.

Standalone canyons and cliffs and some places that could only have bridges connecting the cliffs. Not mentioning fighting, just walking was difficult.

Hence, Huo Qubing could not send all the troops. Only the Mountain Barbarian Division was moving quickly. The 2nd division was still in the surroundings, maintaining the pressure and threatening the pass.

When the Mountain Barbarian Division arrived under the pass, they did not immediately attack. Due to the narrow and hard to travel nature of the paths, large siege weapons could not be transported over.

Without the siege weapons, it would be impossible to take down the pass.

The first thing they did after setting up camp was to work with the construction unit to get resources, cut trees, and build siege weapons on the spot.

When the Protruding Dragon Pass army saw that, they naturally mocked them for their actions.

Since they had such a pass, they had nothing to fear from their perspective. Of course, it was impossible for them to take the initiative to come out and attack.

The name and fame of the Heavy Armored Mountain Barbarian Infantry Division had spread far and wide in the wilderness.

Even after crushing them at Yongren City, the soldiers here did not dare to be too arrogant.

Anyone who knew the details would know that the Yanhuang Alliance and Alliance Army held the absolute numerical advantage. They had also surrounded them, but in the battle, they were still forced on the back foot, and they only won after paying heavy sacrifices.

The 40 thousand troops present would not dare to come out of the pass to fight.

The first exchange between Shanhai City and Swordsman City started in such an unusual manner. The mountain barbarians slowly built their siege weapons outside of the pass while the soldiers inside looked on. The atmosphere had none of the feelings of nervousness and trepidation that a war should have.
