Simultaneously, a white-robed general charged out on horseback from the enemy's military camp. He stopped less than 100 meters away from the Divine Martial Pass' city walls and shouted loudly, "Everyone in the Divine Martial Pass, listen up! The Great Jin Dynasty's Prince Xin has led a 300,000-strong army to rescue the Emperor and has traveled a great distance to provide reinforcements to the Divine Capital. Quickly open the city gates and welcome the Imperial Army!"
Hearing his words, the entire Divine Martial Pass immediately fell into chaos. The faces of the generals guarding the city turned pale, and the spears in their hands trembled slightly.
"To think that it's really Prince Xin."
The Great Jin Dynasty's Prince Xin was the older brother of the Late Emperor. He had grown up in a military camp since young and had always been advancing vigorously on his martial path. At the age of 15, he had already stepped into the Disha Realm. Right now, no one knew what level his martial arts had reached.
Moreover, he was not a boorish fellow who only knew how to cultivate martial arts. He was good at war and had great achievements in the management of the army. After the late Emperor succeeded to the throne, he had been guarding the northern borders and was the late Emperor's most trusted pillar to protect the country. There were many strategists and generals under him, and he had forged the entire Beiyuan State into an iron bucket.
"Could it be that Prince Xin has rebelled as well?" The brows of the generals guarding the city furrowed tightly. In fact, as the flames of war rose in the world, there were rumors that Prince Xin in the north had rebelled. He had massacred the Northern Plains Region's Regional Overseer Manor and taken control of the entire Northern Plains Region.
In the military camp, a young man who wore a purple gold crown and an ochre yellow robe stood proudly among all the generals. True energy condensed in his eyes, and they emitted waves of divine light as he ceaselessly sized up the Divine Martial Pass in the distance.
This young man was Prince Xin's eldest son, Fang Wangshu, the vanguard general of the army that had come to rescue the king.
This time around, Prince Xin had first defeated the plains' elites and wiped out 500,000 soldiers from the plains, causing the various tribes in the plains to struggle at death's door and retreat into the snowy plains in the north. They wouldn't dare to head south for at least ten years.
After that, they mobilized the three hundred thousand cavalrymen from the Northern Lands, bringing with them a surging might to the south. Along the way, they were undefeated and victorious in every battle. From the Northern Plains Province to the Serenity Province, they fought all the way to the Divine Martial Pass.
Along the way, most of the bandits and soldiers either fled upon hearing the news or opened the city gates wide to welcome them.
It was rare to encounter a few rebellious armies, but they were all defeated by these elites who had been fighting in the north for many years.
This also caused the generals and soldiers under Prince Xin to become increasingly arrogant, looking down on the armies of the feudal vassals in Middle-earth.
"Heir." One of the generals beside Fang Wangshu said, "As long as the general guarding this Shen Wei Pass still has some brains, he will probably open the gates and welcome our army. When that time comes, the entire Jing Province will be in front of us. Within three days, we will be able to reach the Divine Capital. This is a great merit. "
Fang Wangshu was the first to attack Jing Province and even trample over the Divine Capital. At the thought of this credit, a hint of excitement flashed in Fang Wangshu's eyes. He still had a few younger brothers watching him.
Fang Wangshu's face turned cold and the killing intent in his eyes intensified.
"Order the entire army to rest and reorganize for two hours. If the Divine Martial Pass doesn't surrender after two hours, I'll make sure not a single chicken or dog remains."
…
Three days later, in the Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace, Fang Xingjian formed a seal with both of his hands. There seemed to be an invisible airflow surging in his palms.
He was mobilizing the surplus computing power in the entire Divine Capital to help him derive the high-dimensional sword technique.
Over the past few days, he had been continuously executing the Living Beings' Wisdom Seal. The more he executed it, the more he could sense the profoundness within it.
It was because this technique did not simply activate the intelligence of the people under him through brute force. Instead, it made use of the computing power that the people under him did not use in their daily lives.
With this, not only would the people not discover the existence of the Living Beings' Wisdom Seal, but they would also be able to train the people's intelligence during this period of time when they were using the computing power, potentially raising their intelligence. As the duration of the Living Beings' Wisdom Seal increased, the average intelligence of the people under him would also become increasingly stronger.
Moreover, due to the prolonged period of consciousness connection and the use of intelligence, he could even faintly increase the people's obedience toward him.
This could be said to be a win-win technique. Not only would it raise the cultivator's own strength, but it could also raise the entire country's potential and the people's intelligence.
'The Royal Heavenly Great Palm Imprint from the Royal Heavenly Great Art already has such an effect. As expected, this Ascendant Heavenly Sect mustn't be underestimated. The other two sects that are on the same level as them must also be extraordinary.'
Just as Fang Xingjian was thinking about these, an official ran into the Imperial Study in a hurry under the accompaniment of a young eunuch and knelt outside the door.
"Your … Your Majesty!"
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed slightly. It was as if he could see through the many obstructions and see the scene outside the Divine Capital.
However, he still asked, "What's wrong?"
That official said with a terrified expression, "Your Majesty, Prince Xin has rebelled and led 300,000 armored cavalry to head south. Right now, the vanguard troops have already arrived at the Divine Capital."
Simultaneously, as the vanguard troops led by Fang Wangshu arrived at the Divine Capital, a commotion broke out in the entire Divine Capital.
Countless rumors and gossips were flying all over the place.
Some said that it was Prince Xin who had fought his way over, while others said that it was a feudal lord who had fought his way over.
Some said that several tens of thousands of troops had passed by, while others said that 800,000 troops had surrounded the city.
There were all sorts of rumors, causing everyone in the Divine Capital to be on tenterhooks.
Now that Prince Xin's troops had fought their way to the Divine Capital, it could be said that they had astonished everyone. The entire city was in a state of panic, and there were even people who were thinking of surrendering.
At the top of the Divine Capital, many rows of generals looked at Prince Xin's troops below the city, frowning and not saying a word. This was especially so when they sensed the military prowess and soaring pernicious auras. They wore worried expressions.
"The cavalry under Prince Xin has been fighting against the tribes in the plains all year round. Regardless of whether it's their martial arts realm, experience in close combat, or their cooperation, they far surpass the Forbidden Army's," a general said worriedly. "If they were to fight outside the city, it'd probably be hard for the Forbidden Army and the city guards to win. "However, as long as they refuse to defend the city, they won't have enough soldiers and rations to support them. They won't be able to attack. "Moreover, there's still a reserve army in the Divine Capital that hasn't been mobilized. They can mobilize another 100,000 soldiers at any moment."
"But if they refuse to defend the city …" Another general sighed. Another general sighed, "This army is merely the vanguard. Once Prince Xin's 300,000-man army arrives …"
He didn't continue, but everyone already understood what he meant, and the expressions in their eyes became more and more unsightly.
Prince Xin guarded the northern borders alone, causing the various tribes in the plains to tremble in fear. His name, the North Garrison King, spread throughout the world.
When befriending such a character, one would naturally feel at ease. However, if they were to become enemies, it would be enough to make one tremble in fear.
Just then, the Imperial Preceptor, Shen Wanzhou, stepped onto the city gate tower.
"Imperial Preceptor!"
"Imperial Preceptor!"
"Paying respects to the Imperial Preceptor!"
Shen Wanzhou's countenance was solemn as he looked at the troops outside the city. There seemed to be a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.
"His Majesty has already handed the matter of quelling the rebel army to me. I hope that everyone will put in their best efforts and unite as one. After the rebel army is wiped out, the imperial court will naturally not mistreat everyone."
This great grandmaster of the Confucian Sect had been famous throughout the imperial court for many years. Regardless of whether it was his martial arts or reputation, they could suppress everyone present. The many generals naturally did not dare to act rashly.
He then turned to introduce to everyone, "This is Miss Marie. She's an expert that His Majesty has invited to help us deal with the rebel army this time around."
The pretty young lady standing behind Shen Wanzhou was Prince, who had been released by Fang Xingjian. However, the surrounding generals clearly did not think much of this beautiful young lady. They did not think that such a pretty young lady would have the ability to wipe out the rebel army either.
Just as everyone was discussing the strategy to deal with the enemy, the troops below the city started moving.
A man with a face full of stubble led 2,000 elite warriors and charged over. They were charging toward the city gate.
