Capítulo 906: Chapter 708: Earth Core Di Ting (Part 4)

The three of them, Lin Xiaosu, Hu Ji, and Qing Ying.

Hu Ji was holding a little white rabbit in her arms. This rabbit was the one saved from Little Qing Cai’s knife yesterday. It is not an ordinary white rabbit; it is an Earth Core Strange Beast: the Heavenly Dao version of Di Ting.

“Just heard from Qing Ying that your southbound army is currently fighting Yan Country at Zheyuntai. Is your first stop going straight to the frontier?” Hu Ji asked.

There was a clear look of excitement in Qing Ying’s eyes.

While in Lanzhou, every day she was inspired by his legend, thrilled at his feats that brought sects to their knees with a wave of his hand, losing sleep over excitement. Now, she could finally witness his battlefield tactics firsthand.

However, Lin Xiaosu gently shook his head: “The fight with Yan Country outside Zheyuntai has been going on for many years, over a hundred. We’ll head to Ning City first and take a look.”

Qing Ying said, “True, the situation at Zheyuntai was quite perilous before last year, but it’s much calmer now. I’ve heard it’s because of a huge scandal that broke out in Yan Country.”

“Oh? What kind of scandal?” Lin Xiaosu asked.

“I heard in Yan Country’s capital, Youdu, someone posted thousands of big-character posters claiming that the Monarch of Yan is not of King Yan’s direct lineage but the progeny of the Saint Heir of the Mental Path. Yan Country is in chaos, and it’s severely affected their campaign against our Dahuang Country.”

Lin Xiaosu laughed: “Are the other three battlefields experiencing similar scandals?”

Qing Ying’s eyes sparkled: “Are you aware, Marquis?”

“I’ve heard some rumors, nothing substantial, Qing Ying, please tell…”

Qing Ying revealed the new intelligence she had gathered over the past few days.

The other three battlefields, involving three countries, also had scandals. The methods were the same as Yan Country: big-character posters in their capitals, covering the city overnight, known to all citizens, with shocking content inside.

The Monarch of Yan is a child of the Mental Path.

The frontline commander of Ye Country is a member of the Mental Path; the Crown Prince of Kaiyuan Country is a member of the Mental Path; the Prime Minister and Minister of War of Chu Country are all people of the Mental Path.

The impact created is immense.

Yan Country is in chaos, with the most intense reaction from the Imperial Family. Several Princes have united and raised troops in the Northwest, putting King Yan in a two-front battle. At the Zheyuntai front, Dahuang soldiers are stationed day and night singing songs. The songs are quite pleasant, almost like the melody of “Spring River Flower Moon Night,” but the lyrics are vulgar, saying: The Monarch of Yan is a child of the Mental Path; for whom is the blood shed at the border?

Solders of this era mostly still have a sense of loyalty to their emperor, seeing fighting for the Emperor as an honor. But this song clearly points out, your emperor is a Mental Path child, do you still have loyal thoughts to fight for the Imperial Family?

Just a line of lyrics has severely damaged the morale of the Yan Army.

This is Zhang Tao’s idea, and the lyrics were written by him.

Indeed, Zhang Tao also set off with Kuang Lang’s army, taking the role of a military advisor, testing what he learned from Lin Xiaosu at Zheyuntai in the north.

“Attacking the mind with song” is one of his tactics in the military path.

In the west, after the frontline commander of Ye Country was embroiled in scandal, the Emperor of Ye Country urgently replaced him, significantly reducing the intensity of the western battle.

In the east, in Chu Country, the Minister of War has been imprisoned; the Prime Minister is also embroiled in scandal, causing political chaos and heavily impacting the frontline battle.

On the southern front of Kaiyuan Country, the Crown Prince is embroiled in scandal, threatening the status of the Eastern Palace. The struggle for succession among the Princes has intensified, but the frontline battle remains unaffected. The Kaiyuan army crossed the sea to attack, maintaining its valiance.

However, they encountered the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince has been fighting with real weapons at Zheyuntai for more than ten years. Once on the battlefield, his mighty power shone, assisted by the Heavenly Yin Yang Chaos Array gifted by the Marquis, achieving continuous victories. The Kaiyuan army has been retreating steadily, now completely withdrawn from the borders of the Great Wilderness, with the fleet only able to wander the offshore South Sea…

In the course of conversation, they traveled a thousand miles.

By noon, they reached Lanzhou.

Upon reaching Lanzhou, the vast and desolate Northwest gave an impression of boundless vastness.

The mountains were incomparably tall.

The canyons, exceptionally deep.

The great river roared and surged here.

The heavens and the earth were remarkably high and distant here.

If this vast land had a bright pearl, it would undoubtedly be Lanzhou.
