Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16369

Chapter 16367 Openly repairing the plank road while secretly crossing the Chencang pass.

Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen’s objection, Qingxuan and the others all breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, every family has a priceless treasure, and they really wouldn’t want to give it up, fearing it would be stolen by the enemy. Now that they heard Gongliang Juewen disagree, they felt relieved.

However, upon further reflection, they understood why Gongliang Juewen disagreed. When it comes to having many valuable items, who can compare to the royal family? If Gongliang Juewen agreed to this method, then each family would indeed have to offer their priceless treasure. Didn’t the royal family also need to offer valuable items? Of course, they also needed to offer valuable items, and they couldn’t just use ordinary things to fool people; they had to be truly valuable. Gongliang Juewen was probably reluctant to part with them, which was why he disagreed.

Thinking of this, Qingxuan couldn’t help but turn to look at Wenjing. Wenjing nodded slightly at him, offering no other response, but Qingxuan already understood Wenjing’s meaning. Wenjing had said that on purpose; he knew that if he said it directly, Gongliang Juewen would definitely not agree, so he deliberately said it that way.

Gongliang Juewen noticed the interaction between Wenjing and Qingxuan. Of course, he knew that Wenjing had said it on purpose, and he had deliberately fallen for it. He certainly couldn’t possibly use a sect-protecting treasure-level magic weapon to deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect, so he didn’t agree, which seemed perfectly normal to Qingxuan and the others.

Gongliang Juewen then said, “How about this, after you go back, think about whether there are any other ways to deal with the enemy’s protective shield. Whoever can come up with a solution will be richly rewarded.” Everyone responded, then bowed to Gongliang Juewen before the court session ended.

On the other hand, Chang Jun and his men were also prepared for retaliation. General Li had said they would definitely retaliate, so of course they had to; otherwise, wouldn’t it make General Li seem incompetent? Therefore, Chang Jun and his men were ready for revenge.

Three days after General Li and his men retreated, the Blood Slaughter Sect’s army crossed Thousand Lotus Mountain and stormed into the Divine Kingdom’s territory, directly attacking Hu Yang City. They didn’t attack Wuwei City or Jade Beard Mountain, only Hu Yang City. However, they only destroyed the buildings in Hu Yang City and some of the surrounding fortified towns; they didn’t send anyone into the underground of Hu Yang City or the underground of those fortified towns. After destroying these cities, they withdrew.

Seeing that the Blood Slaughter Sect had retaliated in this way, General Li and his men breathed a sigh of relief and were all very happy. In their view, the Blood Slaughter Sect had no other choice but to retaliate in this way, and such retaliation posed no threat to them.

After the Blood Slaughter Sect’s army retreated, General Li immediately summoned Shi Yong and Xu Zhengqing to Hu Yang City. While all the above-ground buildings in Hu Yang City were destroyed, the underground space remained intact. Moreover, the underground space was much larger than the surface area. General Li had specifically built an underground office area, including a large conference room.

Therefore, those attending the meeting included not only Shi Yong and his group, but also representatives from various sects and families, as well as some independent cultivators, including some kingdom-level experts.

Once everyone had arrived, General Li glanced at them and said, “As I expected, the enemy has indeed come to retaliate. However, their retaliation is really insignificant to us. I think they are only retaliating to save face.”

Everyone nodded, agreeing with General Li. General Li looked at them, smiled slightly, and said, “Now that the enemy has finished their retaliation, our next step should be to continue our attack. This time, our objective remains the same: to capture people.”

Everyone nodded again. General Li looked at them and said, “I plan to rebuild Poplar City, so I won’t be leading the attack this time. Who wants to lead?”

They exchanged glances, and then Xu Zhengqing said, “How about Elder Shi leads, and I’ll assist him?”

General Li looked at everyone, and seeing that no one seemed to object, he nodded and said, “Alright, that’s settled then. Elder Shi will lead, and Elder Xu will assist him.” “Old man.”

Everyone nodded. General Li continued, “Now let’s talk about the location of this attack. Our previous attack was at Sanhe Plain, which has a relatively dense population. Besides Sanhe Plain, there’s another place with a large population—near Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. There are many people there, some ordinary people, some rogue cultivators, and most importantly, Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain has many medicinal gardens. These gardens produce a large quantity of medicinal herbs, which are very important to them. Our objectives this time are twofold: first, to capture people, and second, to destroy all those medicinal gardens. We want to destroy their strategic resources, bit by bit, so they can no longer attack us.”

Everyone nodded. General Li continued, “There’s another thing everyone needs to pay special attention to: the enemy’s reaction. After the last attack, the enemy will definitely react this time. They will definitely make targeted arrangements. This is something we must be careful about.”

Shi Yong and the others felt a chill run down their spines. General Li then looked at them and said, “Last time we attacked, the enemy probably didn’t expect us to attack in this way, so they didn’t have time to react. It wasn’t until we retreated that they used those deformable shields. But this time, if we attack again, they probably won’t make the same mistake. They might use those deformable shields against us from the very beginning. If that’s the case, how should we deal with it? Have you all thought about this?”

Everyone frowned. To be honest, they hadn’t considered this possibility. Shi Yong then spoke up, “I have indeed thought about this. If we encounter such a situation, my solution is to divide our forces, using large magical artifacts as units.” “Let’s split up. The enemy’s forces are fewer than ours. If we split up, they won’t know which large magical artifact to attack. What do you all think?”

Hearing this, everyone nodded. Splitting up was indeed a good idea. At this moment, General Li spoke up: “Given the enemy’s nature, they might not split up to pursue you. Instead, they might concentrate their forces to attack one or two large magical artifacts. If they do that, what should we do? Just let those large magical artifacts be destroyed?”

Everyone was stunned. Then they looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment. Splitting up was indeed a good idea, but if, as General Li said, the Blood Slaughter Sect only attacked one or two of their large magical artifacts, then the attacked large magical artifacts would definitely be destroyed. This was indeed a problem.

At this moment, the representative of the Prison Suppression Sect suddenly spoke up, “I do have a plan, but I don’t know if it’s feasible.”

Everyone looked at him, and the representative of the Prison Suppression Sect said, “This time, why don’t we send fewer people, and only bring the Creation Golden Wheel as a large magical artifact? The Creation Golden Wheel can be transformed into a magic array. We can use the Creation Golden Wheel to transform into a teleportation array. Once the Creation Golden Wheel is transformed into a teleportation array, we can directly teleport the ordinary people we captured at Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain back. When the enemy is about to attack us, we can simply ride the Creation Golden Wheel away. Even if the enemy attacks the Creation Golden Wheel, it will probably be difficult to completely stop it, right? After all, the Creation Golden Wheel is quite fast, and its attack power is also quite good.”

Upon hearing this… Hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up, but Xu Zhengqing said, “That might not work either. Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is in their territory, far from here. It won’t be easy for the Golden Wheels of Creation to retreat. I think if we really do that, all the Golden Wheels of Creation will be lost there and won’t be able to return.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. General Li then said, “What if we use a feint attack?”

Everyone looked at General Li, who looked at them, and continued, “We concentrate most of our forces to attack one of their locations, making them think that’s where we’re going to attack. But we secretly send a portion of our forces to attack Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain directly.” “We’ll kidnap the people there, destroy the herb garden, and by the time the enemy discovers our actions, they can return. This way, we can not only ensure the safety of that small team but also complete our mission. What do you all think?”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Shi Yong’s eyes lit up as he said, “Great! That’s a good idea! Well then, Elder Xu will take on the task of leading the main force to attack them and drawing their attention. I’ll lead the attack on Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.”

General Li and Xu Zhengqing were both taken aback. Then, General Li turned to Xu Zhengqing and said, “Elder Xu, what do you think?”

Xu Zhengqing said in a deep voice, “I have no objections, but venturing deep into Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is actually very dangerous. Is Elder Shi really willing to take that risk ?” “Is it dangerous? Should we choose someone else?”

Shi Yong shook his head, then said in a deep voice, “Forget it. No matter who we choose, they will all be in danger. It’s dangerous for me, and it’s dangerous for anyone else. So let’s forget it. I’ll go.”

General Li then spoke up, “It’s not just Elder Shi who’s in danger. Elder Xu, it’s just as dangerous for you. As soon as you attack, they will immediately use those deformable shields to attack you. So you are in danger too. You must be careful. Moreover, we need to choose a location to attack. Which location do you think is suitable?”

Upon hearing General Li’s words, everyone was stunned. Then they all fell into deep thought, considering where to choose for this attack.
