Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years - Chapter 48

[Chapter 48]

Three hundred miles to the east of Juhe County is the Lu County City.

It is one of the thirteen counties of Toyosu and the waterway hub in the east of Toyosu.

Not only is it adjacent to the Honghe River, but it is also located at the intersection of the three rivers.

King Yan will choose to invade Lu County, and the ultimate goal is to take this Lu County city.

There are canals on three sides of Lujun City, and many ports have been built here for the mooring of passing merchant ships,

At this time, a seemingly ordinary cargo ship was moored at a port on the Honghe River.

The cargo ship was loaded with gold and silver jewelry, and there were more than a dozen female relatives and several boys hiding in it.

They sat in the cabin, a little restless.

Finally, when the sun was about to set, a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman came here.

When the people in the cabin saw him, they breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s okay, okay, the master is finally here.”

This middle-aged man is none other than Liu Litao, the prefect of Lu County, who is the highest officer in charge of all military and political affairs in the county.

A few days ago, he received a report saying that King Yan’s vanguard army had captured Dachang County and would soon conquer Juhe County.

Frightened, the Liu Taishou decided on the spot to abandon the city and flee.

However, he made too much money in Lu County over the years, and took in too many concubines. It took several days just to prepare.

Until today, I finally made all the preparations and pretended to go out to visit the people.

And told his subordinates that he would be back in seven days at most.

But just as Liu Litao was about to board the ship, a servant suddenly ran over in a hurry.

“Master, military intelligence emergency report!” The servant ran over panting, holding a letter in his hand, “Mr. Duwei is urgent.”

“Dog thing, delaying the county to get on the boat and run away.” Liu Taishou yelled in his heart, but on the surface he still opened the military newspaper to check.

After all, military intelligence can also serve as a reference for his escape route.

Moreover, although the prefect of the county is nominally assisting the prefect in managing the military, in fact, it is in parallel with the prefect and has an independent official office. If the prefect is absent, he can also act as the prefect.

It is impossible for him to directly ignore the military report sent by the captain.

“what?!”

When the Liu Taishou saw the contents, he exclaimed suddenly, his eyes widened, and he read it over and over again in disbelief, “My mother!

“Juhe County was victorious in defending the city, Wei Cun, the leader of the left wing, was killed, Yan Sheng, the leader of the right wing, and Wang Shun, the younger brother of King Yan, were captured alive, and more than half of the 50,000 army were killed and wounded?!

“How is it possible, how can the small Juhe County stop the 50,000 army? It’s ridiculous to say that the enemy’s army was defeated by violent storms when they succeeded. Do you think this is the script of Romance?”

The content of the military newspaper surprised him.

As the prefect of Lu County, he knew very well what was going on in Juhe County, and it was impossible to resist King Yan’s iron cavalry that swept half of Fengzhou.

But the military newspaper also said with certainty that Juhe County was defeated by King Yan’s army.

“Could it be that Chen Tong noticed that I was about to escape and lied about the military situation?” Liu Litao flashed a guess in his mind, but then shook his head again.

Lying about the military situation is a serious crime to be decapitated, which is much more serious than that he privately brings his family to investigate the situation of the people.

“Is it true? But how is it possible.” Liu Litao took the military newspaper and looked left and right, hesitating in his heart, “If this victory is true…”

He didn’t believe the contents of the military newspaper about the violent storm, but he was very tempted by the victory of Juhe County’s defense.

The rebel King Yan has ravaged Fengzhou for five years, winning consecutive battles without a single defeat.

The Dajin court ordered Fengzhou pastor to send troops to encircle and suppress it several times, but they were all blocked by Yang Fengyin.

As long as the results of Juhe County are true,

No matter how it was achieved, it was an unprecedented victory.

In particular, he captured King Yan’s younger brother alive, which is simply a great feat!

“Whether it’s true or not, I’ll send someone to check.” Liu Litao took the military newspaper and read more and more, his eyes lit up.

He had already thought about what kind of benefits this matter could bring to him.

“As long as the results of the battle are true, I can order the magistrate of Juhe to escort Wang Shun to the city of Lu County, and after giving him some rewards at will, I can escort Wang Shun to the capital!

“The current Fengzhou Shepherd is incompetent, allowing the Yan thieves to rage, and the court has long been dissatisfied, and I have made such a great contribution to the sky, and it is very likely to ask for the appointment of Fengzhou Shepherd.

“At that time, I, Liu Litao, will also be the king of a state. In this chaotic world, only with enough territory and troops, and enough power in my hands, can I live in peace!”

Although the world is in great turmoil now, it is difficult for the decrees of the Dajin court to come out of Zhongzhou, but the local officials still respect Dajin as orthodox in name.

It is not easy to disobey the emperor’s order.

Otherwise, it is a blatant rebellion, which can easily be used as a handle by the neighboring forces, and then join forces to declare war on themselves in the name of conquering traitors.

In the end, it is inevitable that he will be defeated and killed, and the site will be divided up.

These state shepherds do not have the heart to serve the court, but they have the courage to fight for territory by serving the court, and they are very big!

“This is my Liu Litao’s big chance!”

Liu Litao was a little overwhelmed with excitement, and secretly said in his heart: “Quick, I have to send someone to Juhe County as quickly as possible, this peach can only be picked by me!!”

As for the thoughts of the magistrate of Juhe, who would care about the thoughts of a sesame seed?

This is the world of power after all, no matter how high martial arts are, no one can really call the wind and call the rain!

…

After Cui Heng gave the order to form an army, Juhe County became busy.

Especially Zhao Guang, who was too busy to touch the ground.

Instead, Cui Heng became more relaxed, and finally had time to take stock of his own cultivation progress.

After the battle of defending the city, Jindan’s Light of Seven Emotions has grown by leaps and bounds.

The red, which symbolizes joy, and the white, which symbolizes love, have exceeded three inches. The black, which symbolizes evil, and the blue, which symbolizes fear, have exceeded two inches, which is about three inches.

The gray symbolizing mourning only grew slightly, reaching a height of a little more than seven points, and the distance of one inch was a little further.

What troubled Cui Heng the most was the yellow color that symbolized desire.

How can I make the yellow a little higher?

This is indeed a question worth thinking about.

But it was difficult to have any clues for a while, so I had to focus on figuring out how to use my mana again.

While trying to see if he could play any new tricks, he also wanted to see if he could find some breakthroughs in the application of mana.

As dusk approached, Cui Heng was still experimenting with some new tricks.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.

“Xianzun, a female Taoist priest came to visit outside. She said her name was Xu Bailu.”

“Xu Bailu?” Cui Heng was stunned for a moment, he didn’t know this person.

However, the beautiful Taoist nun he had seen on the city wall immediately appeared in his mind.

Fang Min and Zhou Caiwei had introduced that that was their master.

“It turned out to be her.” Cui Heng nodded lightly, “Let her wait for me in the living room.”
