After the two support armies of the Guangming Army arrived at the Lianzhou battlefield, the battlefield situation suddenly reversed, although at this time the strength of the Liang Empire on the Lianzhou battlefield was still more than the Guangming Army, but it was not much, and the Liang Army's Zhongxiang Yong militia accounted for a large proportion, only less than a month, even though the Liang Empire had a high-end military advantage, but on the battlefield, the Liang Army was defeated by the Guangming Army several times, and had no choice but to temporarily withdraw from Lianzhou.

Lianzhou is the core area of the Liang Empire, and it is also the most densely populated and commercially developed area of the Liang Empire, the capital of the Liang Empire, Guangling City, is located in Lianzhou, the importance of Lianzhou can be imagined, if the situation is not for the sharp deterioration, the Liang Empire really does not want to give up Lianzhou.

Abandoning Lianzhou meant that the Great Liang Empire would fall into the upper hand in the war with the Illumination Sect, and without the help of other countries, the Great Liang Empire would only continue to retreat.

But judging from the form on the battlefield of Lianzhou, if the Liang army does not retreat and continues to fight hard with the Guangming army, it will only make the Liang army pay more casualties.

The war between the Great Liang Empire and the Bright Sect has lasted for more than a year and a half, the Great Liang Empire has not only lost a large area of land and population, but also the army has lost a lot of money.

Therefore, the Great Liang Empire can only choose to withdraw its troops and abandon Lianzhou, but the high-level leaders of the Great Liang Empire have also formulated a plan to deploy some troops in the areas controlled by the Great Liang Empire in the neighboring states of Lianzhou, only to resist the city and defend it, so that the Illuminati will spend more time to capture these areas, and only wait for the Shengwu Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms of Ji Luo and Zhao to send troops to exterminate the Illuminati together.

However, because of the Liang army's active retreat, the Guangming Army did not achieve the intended goal, that is, to completely defeat the Liang army on the battlefield of Lianzhou, causing the Liang army to suffer heavy losses, and then continued to march westward, thus completely destroying the Liang Empire or making the Liang Empire lose the strength to attack the Guangming Sect.

But now the losses of the Great Liang Empire have not met the expectations of the Illuminati, and the Illuminati can only change their strategy.

In early August, the Illuminati moved south after completely occupying Lianzhou.

The northern part of the Great Liang Empire is the Shengwu Dynasty, once the Illuminati Sect continues to expand to the north of the Great Liang Empire, the area controlled by the Illuminati Sect bordering the Shengwu Dynasty will be larger, and it will be more difficult for the Illuminati to defend against the Shengwu Dynasty, so the Illuminati Sect temporarily chooses to expand to the south of the Great Liang Empire.

If the territory of the original Great Liang Empire was very large, if the Great Qin Empire did not have the two overseas states of Yingzhou and Xuanzhou, then the Great Liang Empire would be the largest country on the land of Shenzhou, with a land area of more than 3.9 million square kilometers.

After the Guangming Sect occupied Lianzhou, there were five states under the rule of the Guangming Sect, Binzhou, Caizhou, Cangzhou, Shanzhou, and Lianzhou, and there were a total of twelve states in the Liang Empire, and the area controlled by the Guangming Sect accounted for less than two-fifths of the territory of the Liang Empire, with a population of about 13 million, mainly Lianzhou, the core area of the Great Liang Empire.

Under the orders of Yuan Chang, the leader of the Bright Sect, the 200,000 Bright Army swung their troops south, constantly attacking the city and pulling out the ground.

The Great Liang Empire's strategy of refusing to defend the city did bring a lot of trouble to the Bright Army, making the Bright Army's siege speed greatly slow, even if there is a "Divine Punishment Thunder" that can break through the county town with only low earthen walls, but the county and state cities will be in a lot of trouble, if there are enough "Divine Punishment Thunder", the walls of the county and state cities can still be broken, the key is that there are not so many "Divine Punishment Thunder" in the hands of the Bright Sect, so they can only save a little.

After that, the Guangming Army also changed its thinking, the county seat could be stormed, the county seat and the state city were temporarily besieged, and the other areas were occupied first and then attacked again.

By the end of October, the Bright Sect had occupied most of the southern part of the Great Liang Empire, and at this time, the area controlled by the Bright Sect had occupied more than half of the territory of the Great Liang Empire, and the population under its rule also exceeded the current population of the Great Liang Empire.

The high-level of the Great Liang Empire is now in a very complicated mood, they hope that the Holy Martial Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms of Ji Luo and Zhao will send troops to encircle and suppress the Bright Sect, and they also hope that the Bright Sect can be defeated with the Holy Martial Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms of Ji Luo Zhao, so that the Great Liang Empire can protect itself.

It has been three days since Yun Yi entered the retreat room, and in the three days, Yun Yi controlled the internal force in his body, and wanted to convert the internal force in the gaseous state into a liquid state, but it was too difficult to complete such a transformation, and there was no experience from his predecessors for Yun Yi to learn from, so Yun Yi could only try it himself.

In three days, Yun Yi's internal force transformation experiment failed, no, it can't be said to be a complete failure, Yun Yi still had one method left to use - taking a thousand-year elixir, with a huge amount of medicinal power to force the internal force to transform from a gaseous state to a liquid state.

It's just that before the last step, Yun Yi is really unwilling to use this method, taking the thousand-year-old elixir to rush through the level, the risk will be greater, if you are not careful, you will go mad or cause yourself to be severely injured, and the possibility of falling is also very high.

Even if Yun Yi falls, there will be turmoil in the Great Qin Empire, but everything of this kind will make the turmoil calm.

The way of the martial artist is to move forward bravely, otherwise, if you don't advance, you will retreat, once Yunyi gives up, I am afraid that the lifelong martial arts will no longer enter the country.

Yun Yi, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, opened his eyes, and on the ground in front of him was a wooden plate, on which were five thousand-year-old ginseng plants wrapped in silk scarves, as well as a delicate dagger.

Yun Yi picked up the dagger with his right hand, and after placing a thousand-year-old ginseng plant with his left hand, he waved it lightly with his right hand, and soon, this thousand-year-old ginseng was cut into pieces.

After cutting a thousand-year-old ginseng, Yun Yi took a dagger in the direction, and after calming down a little, Yun Yi picked up a piece of ginseng, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

The medicinal power of thousand-year-old ginseng is huge, and this ginseng is still two thousand years old, just one piece of import, Yunyi felt a stream of heat surging in his body......
