The land of Qi was surrounded by enemies on all sides, including Hao in the south, Wei Zhao in the west, and Yan in the north.
There is more than enough defense, but not enough offense.
Yandi also has to defend against the herdsmen and monsters in the north, but they rarely cause trouble.
It can be said that he was too timid or cautious to attack Zhao with the strength of the whole country.
Otherwise, conflicts among the three alliances will inevitably arise, affecting the situation in Nanfangbuzhou.
Yan Jin can attack, retreat or defend. After provoking trouble, he can retreat back to watch the excitement and wait for opportunities.
Once the three families are in chaos, Qin will attack them. The next step is to look at Yu and Qi. If they join, it will be an encirclement and suppression situation by the four families.
Yan Ke can take this opportunity to grow stronger, and may be able to aspire to be the hegemon of Nanfangbuzhou.
If you wait like this now, you will lose less, but you may also miss opportunities from now on.
But it’s hard to say what exactly will happen, so I can’t say.
…
The Eastern Route Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Yamazaki was counting the days. They arrived here, and Princess Jingqing also just arrived.
She is a supervisor, but she doesn't care about anything at all. She just has a distinguished status and her words are effective.
Princess Jingqing set up recruitment flags all the way to the east, but strangely, no one of the masters applied.
There are only some guys with half a bucket of water who come to make ends meet, and their strength is worth dying for.
Princess Jingqing doesn't like them, but she treats them politely.
…
After Princess Jingqing's tent, or palace, was set up, Yamazaki handed over the post.
There was Zhou Yanyu's seal of Princess of Zhou County on it, and the guard didn't dare to neglect it and conveyed it quickly.
Princess Jingqing was overjoyed and immediately welcomed her in person. As a result, she brought out a team of servants, which made the guests a little dissatisfied.
Who is this? Hearing that she was a county princess, she put away her jealousy.
…
Entering the palace after greetings, Yamazaki asked for information.
Princess Jingqing didn't shy away from it either. She sent people to bring all the information she had read and stacked them higher than a person.
The general beside her wanted to speak, but finally shut up.
Obviously they have a very good personal relationship, and the princess of Dazhou County, with her high status, can still read those confidential documents.
…
Yamazaki turned it over and tidied it up.
On the western side of Dongsheng Shenzhou, many Yuan Shen masters from the Great Zhou Dynasty used formations to suppress the attacks of the Imperial Master of Great Zhao and the seven demons and ghosts.
But they can only stick to it, dwarfed by it, and morale is low.
Zhao's momentum was high, and he was eyeing Dawu in the southeast and Nangao in the south.
Da Wu and Nan Gao have openly discussed forming an alliance to jointly fight against Da Zhao.
In fact, it was the Eight Immortals who were promoting the alliance because they didn't like Da Zhao using demons to go into battle and letting them kill people.
It is true that the two armies are fighting, but they can also be more merciful.
…
While Yamazaki was thinking about it, another report came over there, and two strangers came to apply.
"What kind of stranger is he?"
"Here, one is an ugly man on a cane, and the other is an unkempt young man holding a bamboo board."
"ah?"
Princess Jingqing was surprised, and the image in her mind made her look like a beggar.
Yamazaki looked over with his spiritual energy, penetrated the palace, and saw two beggars.
Yamazaki was so funny that he sent a message to Princess Jingqing, Zhou Yanyu and Gu Linger.
"It's Li Ningyang and Lan Caihe, two of the Eight Immortals, who have arrived. But if they don't say anything, don't point it out and let them make trouble. There will be less cause and effect on our side."
"I see." Princess Jingqing nodded, "Okay, I will meet them now, no matter what, Corporal Lixian."
…
Princess Jingqing went out to greet them again, this time welcoming two beggars, which immediately aroused dissatisfaction among the people at the door.
The one who was looking for trouble jumped out immediately, "This is the Great Zhou Army Camp. The descendants of Emperor Ziwei are in front of you. Not even cats and dogs are qualified to see it."
Li Ningyang pretended to be stupid, "Brother, did you hear something?"
"It's probably the cat or the dog that's barking." Lan Cai and Poisonous Tongue said.
"How brave!"
"Whoosh!"
As soon as he did this, the person flew away.
Everyone who knows knows that these two beggars are really powerful.
Those who didn't know it thought it was just flying in the clouds. They waited for a while before they all realized what the hell, someone was blowing them away.
Princess Jingqing paid a visit, "You two gentlemen are very resourceful, I don't know what to call them?"
"Li Tieguai."
"Blue bamboo board."
The two of them just handed over their hands. As disciples of Taishang Laojun, they could afford to be worshiped by the descendants of Emperor Ziwei.
But others didn't know that someone from Zhou immediately accused him of being rude, and not just one of them.
"Needless to say, as long as you have the ability to help me defeat the enemy of Great Zhou, I will kneel down and worship you, and it is appropriate."
Princess Jingqing stopped her men and invited them inside.
…
Inside the palace.
Shan Qi and Gu Ling'er both avoided, only Zhou Yanyu was there.
The two of them were golden immortals from the Bajing Palace. They could tell at a glance that Zhou Yanyu was a witch, and then looking at her qualifications, they couldn't help but look at each other.
The talent is too good to be true. Compared with her, people like them are several times worse.
Princess Jingqing introduced, "This is Princess Yanyu County of Jizhou, and she is also a direct descendant of the Ji family."
"Hello you two."
"well."
…
They sat down again and talked again. The two of them said they would help deal with the ghosts.
Li Ningyang said: "It's just that monster, we can't deal with it."
Lan Caihe smiled at Zhou Yanyu and said, "But it's just right. Princess, you can give it a try. Don't kill me. Maybe you can get a mount."
Zhou Yanyu nodded, "No problem, but why can't you deal with it?"
Li Ningyang touched his beard and said: "There are too many ghosts and monsters that have killed many living beings. Now they have committed many evil deeds. The doom is coming, but the winged monster has not yet arrived."
Zhou Yanyu laughed playfully, "Can you leave it all to me and I can earn merit?"
"You?" Lan Cai and Poisonous Tongue said, "Your magic power is not weak, but it is not enough to deal with those ghosts. The water attribute cannot restrain Yin Qi."
"I have this, hehe."
Zhou Yanyu showed off the Fierce Yang Spirit Talisman Formation and the Earth Fire Seal, trapping the enemy one by one and setting fire to them, leaving the two golden immortals speechless.
The two of them calculated with their fingers and found that these two magic weapons could really restrain ghosts.
Lan Caihe nodded, "Interesting, the princess came prepared. Maybe you are really the one who deserves the disaster."
Li Ningyang also nodded, "Since we have this treasure, we should give it a try. We will know if it is her."
…
Having said that, Da Zhao did not respond to Da Zhou's call for formation, saying that the New Year was approaching and he had no time to deal with them and would wait until next year.
Da Zhou was helpless and could only wait patiently.
Waiting for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the coming year (125th year of the Linghai calendar), Yamazaki and Shandai chatted in the air.
Shandai came down to help Ling Jintang and Shaoyao practice in the air. She heard some news and casually told Yamazaki.
Only then did Yamazaki know that Da Zhao was attacking Da Wu in the southeast and was overwhelming Nan Gao.
Yamazaki was speechless, Dazhou's information was too lagging behind.
The same goes for the Eight Immortals. Although they are in different places, they have no communication with each other at all and are all minding their own affairs.
However, Yamazaki is not in a hurry, because the matter has reached this point, and there is no point in rushing.
…
The next day, the morning of the 16th day of the first lunar month.
Yamazaki thought about it and used the first divination to calculate the fate of the country of Wu.
Sure enough, he was going to die.
Counting Nangao, it's still a bit fuzzy.
Yamazaki immediately knew that he had guessed correctly again.
Lu Chunyang has an arrogant personality, and he couldn't integrate into Dawu.
…
