Great Pool City, City Lord's Mansion!
The doors of the Central Hall were tightly shut. In everyone's eyes, there was only Zhong Shan inside.
There were some banquets in the hall.
Zhong Shan sat on the main seat with a black-robed figure half-kneeling in front of him.
"Congratulations, Master, on your 100th birthday!" the black-robed figure said.
"Dark Emperor, your concealment skills are getting better and better. You've undergone a transformation in just a few years. "Zhong Shan helped the Dark Emperor up and smiled.
"The Divine Land is a good place. Master's name will soon spread across the world. I've also had some fortuitous encounters." The Dark Emperor smiled.
"I didn't expect you to be the only one who came to congratulate me on my 100th birthday." Zhong Shan sighed.
"Where's Crown Prince Zheng?" The Dark Emperor asked.
"I arranged for him to do something." Zhong Shan said.
"Oh." The Dark Emperor nodded.
"Come, no matter what, you and I are still here." Zhong Shan invited the Dark Emperor to sit down.
"Thank you, Master!" The Dark Emperor said respectfully.
In a commercial street, a shop in the Darong Chamber of Commerce was closed for the day. Zhong Cheng held a banquet inside for everyone to celebrate. As for what they were celebrating, only Zhong Cheng knew.
In a place filled with Buddhist chanting in a valley, Zhong Tian personally prepared a banquet and drank to his heart's content.
In a bamboo forest, Sorrowful Green Silk made a pot of fish soup. It was the same fish soup that Zhong Shan made for her. She placed a bowl on the stone table, one for herself and one for the other.
The 100th birthday wasn't grand, but it was still very warm. Zhong Shan had someone to accompany him in both his hiding place and his real body.
After the banquet, he waved his hand and the door opened.
As soon as the door of the Central Hall opened, Ah Da rushed in.
A black-robed figure? When did he come in? If Mister didn't attract his attention when he opened the door, he wouldn't have noticed him. Who was he?
At this moment, the Dark Emperor was once again wrapped in his black robe, including his head.
Although Ada couldn't see his face, he could see it with his Divine Sense. Late-Stage Golden Core? He hasn't even reached the Nascent Soul stage, how did he manage to hide from my eyes? When did he come in?
The Dark Emperor bowed respectfully to Zhong Shan and then silently left the hall.
Zhong Shan was here, so Ada couldn't stop him and ask. But all this was too weird.
The Dark Emperor retreated. Ada immediately looked at Zhong Shan and asked, "Sir, what was that just now?"
"A friend of mine," Zhong Shan said.
Five months later. Within the Great Light Imperial Dynasty! At the peak of a mountain.
Zhong Shan led the generals to look at the scenery of the mountains and rivers in the distance. In the valley below, there were millions of soldiers. The Great Xuan Army's first battalion still had 200,000 soldiers, Liu Wushuang's wolf cavalry still had 50,000 soldiers, and Shui Wuhen's army, including those that had been gathered and incorporated later on, already had more than 750,000 soldiers.
The million-strong army had received orders from the Great Xuan King to head to the Great Light Imperial Dynasty and assist in attacking it.
"Commander, what should we do next?" Shui Wuhen asked.
"First, we'll seize a city as our foundation. Then, we'll plan to move forward," Zhong Shan said with certainty.
"A city? Which city should we seize? "Shui Wuhen asked.
"Since there's a possibility of joining forces with the other Great Luo armies, we can't go too far." It can't be too far away from the Great Light Imperial Dynasty! "Zhong Shan said after thinking for a while.
"Then, according to the territory we've been assigned, it should be Daye City or Baihuang City," Shui Wuhen said after thinking for a moment.
"That's right. It's these two cities. They're strategic locations," Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"Once we seize one, the other will be harder to attack. Which one should we seize? Daye City was the imperial capital of the Great Light Imperial Dynasty. Baihuang City is similar to Wushuang City, but it's weaker. It should be easier to seize, "Shui Wuhen said.
"Seize Daye City!" Zhong Shan said with certainty.
"Daye City? That city's defenses are too strong. Can we break through the city? "Shui Wuhen asked worriedly.
"If we don't break through it now, it will be harder in the future. That's it. Inform the three armies to prepare to set off!" Zhong Shan ordered.
"Yes!" The generals answered.
Great Light Imperial Dynasty, Xiao Wang's camp, inside the central tent.
The generals stood on both sides. Xiao Wang was dressed in a hemp robe with his hair draped behind his back. He sat at the commander's desk and held a letter in his hand.
"Zhong Shan is here!" Xiao Wang took a deep breath and said.
"Governor, is it that Zhong Shan who breached the twelve cities of the Great Universe's Linhai in five months?" A general asked.
"That's right, it's him!" Xiao Wang nodded.
There was a commotion among the generals. Clearly, Zhong Shan's reputation was not small even in the Great Light Territory.
"Marshal, where is Zhong Shan?" A general asked.
"I don't know where, but I know where he is going," Xiao Wang said solemnly.
"Uh?" The generals were puzzled.
"On the Great Light Battlefield, several Great Immortal Armies are constantly changing directions, so only the center is empty. The Grand Xuan King couldn't possibly have let us enter the Great Immortal Empire through this gap, so it can only be another army filling in. And here, there are two strategic locations. One is Daye City, and the other is the Baihuang Imperial Dynasty. The Baihuang Imperial Dynasty is too weak. With Zhong Shan's pride, he definitely won't take advantage of the weak. He will definitely attack Daye City! In half a month at most, he will definitely reach Daye City! "Xiao Wang said with certainty.
If Zhong Shan was here, he would definitely be astonished by Xiao Wang's analytical ability. It was too accurate!
"Governor, Daye City is currently garrisoned by Young Master. There are a million troops, but Zhong Shan commands troops like a god. This general requests to lead troops to assist Young Master and join forces with Young Master to annihilate Zhong Shan in one fell swoop!" A general immediately requested.
"Haha, you don't have to go!" Xiao Wang said with a smile.
"But!" That general said doubtfully.
"Not only do you not have to go, Yuan Deng has to withdraw from Daye City immediately!" Xiao Wang took a deep breath and said.
"Governor, you want to hand over Daye City to Zhong Shan? That's a stronghold, a piece of fertile land! "That general said with a look of reluctance.
"So what if we hand it over to him? Stronghold? Fertile land? It will soon become a graveyard! "Xiao Wang said with a trace of ruthlessness on his face.
"Uh?" The generals were puzzled. But what kind of person was Governor Xiao Wang? Since he said so, then it must be so.
Daye City was a huge city. Although it wasn't as grand as Sky City, it was still bigger than Wushuang City.
Daye City was snow-white and looked very beautiful.
In the original Imperial Palace, in a hall.
Inside was the general who knelt in front of the Millennium Ghost with Cangyun Sect's Sovereign Xiao Yuanfeng. One of Xiao Wang's two adopted sons. Xiao Yuandeng.
Xiao Yuandeng held a letter in his hand. It was a message from Xiao Wang. It was also a military order.
After reading the letter, Xiao Yuandeng's eyes widened. He quickly walked out of the Imperial Palace, flew to a high place, and looked around the city. After reading, Xiao Yuandeng fiercely sucked in a breath of cold air. His eyes were full of horror.
The things in Xiao Wang's letter were too shocking!
Go, go immediately! Quickly evacuate!
"Come!" Xiao Yuandeng shouted.
Soon a few generals ran over.
"Marshal!" The generals were puzzled.
"Gather the troops, gather all the troops and prepare to leave the city!" Xiao Yuandeng ordered.
"Marshal?" The generals were puzzled. All the troops? Prepare to leave the city? Don't they want Daye City?
"Quick!" Xiao Yuandeng cried.
"Yes!" The generals responded.
Then, Xiao Yuandeng took the generals and rushed out of the city.
Xiao Yuandeng went out, but the people in the city were puzzled. What happened to them? In such a time of war, don't they want the city? The people were puzzled. Some shrewd people had already smelled something unusual and quietly followed out of the city.
Three days later, Zhong Shan led the army and stopped in the distance of Daye City. Zhong Shan was not in a hurry to go, but stopped. Because Zhong Shan suddenly felt a trace of something wrong.
The Red Luan and Pink Lotus turned blue! Great evil?
Zhong Shan frowned and his eyes were full of puzzlement. Just then, a scout flew over.
"Reporting to Marshal!" The scout fell to the ground and bowed.
"Speak!" Zhong Shan immediately stared at him.
"Daye City, all the city defenses have been withdrawn. There are no soldiers in the city, only countless people." The scout said.
"No way! How is that possible? Did the army disguise themselves as the people? "Shui Wuhen immediately asked.
"No, four days ago, the army in the city withdrew and all of them left the city. Daye City is now defenseless, we can go there and take them. "The scout immediately replied.
"Investigate again!" Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" The scout immediately flew away.
"Zhao Chuan, send more people to Daye City and carefully investigate. Also, send more scouts to investigate in all directions. Something is wrong!" Zhong Shan frowned.
"Yes!" Zhao Chuan replied.
"Wuhen, inform the three armies to prepare to retreat!" Zhong Shan looked at Shui Wuhen and said.
"Retreat?" Shui Wuhen said strangely.
"Retreat!" Zhong Shan said with certainty.
"Yes!" Shui Wuhen could only comply.
The army retreated for a day before stopping in another valley. After another day, the scout returned and received the same news as before. Daye City had no resistance, there was absolutely no city defense! All the city defenses had been withdrawn.
"Is Xiao Wang confused?" Zhao Chuan asked strangely.
"Marshal, no matter what Xiao Wang is thinking, we must take Daye City. If we don't take it now, when will we?" Shui Wuhen immediately shouted.
"Shui Wuhen, stay here and lead the troops. I'll go take a look myself!" Zhong Shan said after some thought.
"Yes!" Shui Wuhen immediately replied.
Following this, Zhong Shan brought Ah Da, Zhihuo, and Nian Youyou to Daye City at top speed. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
