The royal family of Qiye Shangguo even sent away the young Miao Yi, and he stayed at the gate of the country, waiting for the final showdown with the Miao tribe.
Even the distant Nanyuan Kingdom can see the desperate situation of Qi Ye Kingdom, how can Qi Ye Kingdom not know it?
Whether it is the military academy or the troops in his own hands, or even the full reinforcements from surrounding countries. These may seem powerful, but they won't solve the problem.
No amount of sticks can break the iron ball. This is not something that quantity can change.
After 200,000 elites were bloodbathed in the Xiaojiao Mountain blockade, the whole Qiye Kingdom understood that no matter whether the Yin clan could be eliminated in the end, the Qiye Kingdom would suffer a heavy blow. Although it was most reasonable to avoid the front, Qi Yeguo's face and the honor of the royal family did not allow them to take the initiative to give up their ancestral inheritance in such an embarrassing manner.
But the reality is difficult to face.
The demon clan seems to be continuing to accumulate strength. In addition to slowly expanding the area of activity mainly for exploration, most of the troops remain around Xiaojiao Mountain, seeming to be guarding the hole in the sky at Xiaojiao Mountain. The current peace is only temporary. Once the Yin Clan is full of energy, the entire Qiye Kingdom and the entire human race will face a catastrophe.
But just when Qi Yeguo was gritting his teeth, a turning point that no one expected came suddenly.
First, large swaths of fire rain rose from the Xiaojiao Mountain side. The fire rain and smoke all over the sky told the Qi Ye Kingdom defenders who were retreating in the distance a message: there was an emergency over there with the Yin tribe.
In order to find out what had been released in the central area where the Zhen clan was located, Qi Yeguo sent out hundreds of explorers to find out the situation even at the cost of losses.
A few days later, first-hand news came back from Feiyu, saying that all the corpses of the soldiers who had been killed had been burned, and the fire rain seemed to be directed at the corpses. Nowadays, the areas occupied by the Yin Clan can no longer smell the soaring stench of the past.
The second-hand news came back less than a day after the first. He also mentioned a huge change: for some unknown reason, the number of the Yin clan has dropped sharply, and large areas of occupied areas have become empty, and even half of their defensive strength has disappeared. And the Yin clan who were originally scattered outside for expansion and exploration also hurriedly returned to Xiaojiao Mountain.
It all came so unexpectedly and ecstatically.
But what followed was a disturbing question: Where did the disappeared demon tribe go?
Shen Wujiu on the cliff mountain also visited the mountain again with this question.
"Master Shen, you seem a little anxious. In fact, there is no need for it. Didn't you say before that the incident involving the Yin clan will not affect the Nanyuan Kingdom?" Zhang Yan seemed to be in a good mood and did not refuse Shen Wujiu's request for an audience. He also asked Wang Nian to lead people to Dengyun Palace.
"Sir! I have to be anxious! They just received news from Qiye Kingdom. They found that a large number of demon tribes gathered around Xiaojiao Mountain were missing. The pressure on the defense line was greatly reduced. Now all the demon tribes have retreated to Xiaojiao Mountain.
But according to Qi Ye Kingdom, the time when this change occurred in the Yin Clan coincides with your trip to Qi Ye Kingdom. I just want to ask you, sir, if you know where the Yin clan went when they suddenly disappeared?
This matter is important, sir, please forgive me for my rashness, sir, please tell me by all means. "With that said, Shen Wujiu bowed deeply to the end, feeling uneasy. At the same time, he also had a bit of expectation and excitement.
Zhang Yanxu raised his hand so that Shen Wujiu wouldn't have to salute. He guessed the purpose of Shen Wujiu's coming here, which he hadn't mentioned before. He also wanted to see the reaction of the various countries of the human race first, and at the same time, he wanted to see the reaction of the Yinzu tribe, whether they would disperse desperately or shrink back and defend Xiaojiao Mountain. Now it seems that the Ying clan has made a decision, which is in line with what Zhang Yan wants to see most.
"I have dealt with the missing part of the demon tribe." Zhang Yan gave Shen Wujiu an answer with a smile. But there is no need to let the other party know how it is "handled" specifically.
Shen Wu's eyes widened fiercely, the surprise on his face could not be concealed, and he asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Sir, are you saying that you have dealt with so many demon clansmen worth hundreds of thousands by yourself?"
Although his heart was filled with excitement, his reason made Shen Wujiu further verify the news. After all, Qi Yeguo said that there were at least 500,000 missing Yin tribes. This number sounded terrifying, and it was difficult to imagine how Zhang Yan could "dispose" of these Yin tribes by himself.
And based on Shen Wujiu's understanding of Zhang Yan, although this Mr. Zhang usually smiles and is easy to get along with, he is actually a ruthless person in his heart. By "processing", does he mean eliminating it?
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I have something that, under my control, can specifically target the Yin tribe. As long as they gather together and don't run around, it's not difficult to deal with it."
Although Shen Wujiu really wanted to know and even more wanted to see what Zhang Yan said could be used against the Yin clan, he didn't dare to ask or even mention it. But he also knows the importance. How Zhang Yan can achieve "lightness", and whether he can always be like this is the key.
So Shen Wujiu quickly asked, "What do you plan to do in the future, sir?"
"Haha, Master Shen, I have said before that Nanyuan Kingdom does not need to worry about the rampage of the Yin clan and its influence here. Since they emerged from Qiye Kingdom, just let them stay there, Hua Just make a circle and keep them from running away. I will go there every once in a while to make sure they are no longer a threat."
As Zhang Yan said this, he handed something he had prepared these days into Shen Wujiu's hands.
"These are sketches of some buildings. Although they are sloppy, I have drawn the core things. Some of the key building materials involved have also been marked. You can take them to Qiye State and ask them to build them as soon as possible. This is to resist the Zhen tribe. The simplest method is much better than relying on human lives to block it like they are doing now."
Shen Wujiu took the thing and responded quickly. Although there were still many questions in his mind, Zhang Yan waved his hand and did not dare to stay here for a long time, so he stood up and left. He also understood that the thing in his hand was of great importance, and it was actually enough to call this visit to Zhang Yan fruitful. It needs to be sent to Qi Ye Country as soon as possible.
Because the journey is far, using a fast horse would take too long and is unnecessary. Just use the flying feathers, send multiple flying feathers together, or even send them in groups. There is no need to consider things like confidentiality at all. Ordinary people cannot understand these drawings and descriptions. And no one who can understand will intercept this news, because it is not only about the affairs of one country, but also the entire human nation.
But even so, it was nearly a month later when Qi Yeguo received the news from Feiyu.
If only these three words of Nanyuan Kingdom might make Qi Yeguo doubtful, he would inevitably not believe it, but if it starts with the sentence "Mr. Zhang Yan Zhang conducted an actual investigation and came up with this strategy", the situation will not be the same. Same.
