Volume 4 Chapter 141 Before the Great War (Part II)
Of course, it is impossible to bypass the underworld for such a big thing.
But because the yin and yang fight is not in line with the way of heaven, they will not send troops directly, and can only send troops to suppress the formation.
Once Zijun or Lu Hou Liang's Yin soldiers appeared, they would immediately enter the battlefield.
These days, there are indeed not many wolf armies that the inner courtyard can make for the underworld, and they can barely be counted as 10,000 when they are full.
But at the beginning, there was a large demand for the Cowherd, because the underworld believed that the remnants had created a large number of souls and wanted to invade our world in a very secret way, and then later, they knew more and understood that this was more of a resource plunder for the soul, so they had more reasons to send troops. At that time, he didn't know the ultimate mystery of the Heavenly Dao, so he had this strategy.
But now it's different.
Yin and Yang avenues, each in its own way.
It's time for the yang world.
To simplify the complex, the essence of this imminent war is not at the core any different from the history of human wars.
In the eyes of the emotionless Heavenly Dao, there is no righteous party.
The remnants attack us, and it also allows us to fight back.
But a large number of Yin soldiers are absolutely not allowed.
If there were such good things, there would not be so many dynastic changes in history.
With the energy of the Aether Hospital and their relationship with the underworld, even if they only seek a team of 1,000 Yin soldiers, there is no suspense about the outcome of the battle.
Therefore, although the wolf army can fight during the day, the target of the attack cannot be the remnant.
And the enemy Yin soldiers who can attack will not appear during the day.
To say that both sides summoned super thunderclouds, so that the mountains and rains were about to come, and the dark clouds were thick, and the enemy's Yin soldiers could indeed appear, but in that case, the wolf army would not have much significance.
In short, it's very chicken.
Since figuring this out, the wolf army's plan has to be aborted.
Of course, there is another important reason.
That is, after the courtyard left, there were yang guards in front of the ghost gate, and the pattern that lasted for thousands of years changed suddenly.
Before so many ghost gates are closed, there will be a large undefended vacuum.
And Zijun and Lu Houliang didn't know where to hide, staring at each other, waiting for an opportunity to move.
If the underworld dispatches a large number of troops, once someone is transferred from the mountain and the base camp is lost, it will be a catastrophe.
Before, the courtyard always thought that opening the ghost gate was an obsession of the bereaved, but now I know that in fact, from beginning to end, it is just Zijun's needs.
The two sides were fighting fiercely, and he suddenly came out halfway and stabbed him in front of the ghost gate, but he really got what he wanted.
After considering the comparison of the strength of the two sides, everyone reluctantly recognized a fact and came to a conclusion.
That is, if the population of the Jiang Dynasty is about five or six hundred thousand.
Then the existing combat strength of the Yili Yuan is 6,000, plus the 2,000 disciples of the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, and the victory or defeat against the Venerable family is unknown.
Even if there are so many onmyoji and wizards from all countries willing to go to war, it's the same.
The courtyard has always liked to crush opponents, but this time it couldn't.
Even if the onmyoji and the wizards of various countries participate in the war, they will naturally leave the same seeds as the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, and exclude those who are still shallow in strength and are not suitable for the battlefield.
The courtyard itself does this, how can it ask others to bet on all the money?
At this time, the prefecture can provide a little indirect help.
The prefecture pointed out that neither the inner courtyard, nor the Buddhist and Taoist scholars, nor the onmyoji and the shamanic group had any experience in marching and fighting.
What they are best at is one-on-one, or small groups working with each other.
Although the courtyard has had several experiences in such large-scale operations, it is still very naΓ―ve, and it is difficult to improve in a short period of time.
Therefore, the prefecture will provide some staff officers with the army, although they are not famous generals and commanders in history, but at least they can ensure that they will not make big mistakes in principle in arranging troops.
The power of the bereaved people has been completely militarized, and they are fighting in a foreign land, and they have a natural aura to suppress the doctors in the courtyard, plus they are not familiar with the geographical environment, so it can be said that the time and place are not favorable. So this war is destined to be very difficult.
The underworld believes that the strength of the bereaved lies in the cluster charge.
It's actually quite easy to weaken this advantage.
As long as your own people don't get together, it's fine.
Originally, this kind of behavior, when fighting in a foreign land, is tantamount to looking for death.
But it just so happened that the doctors in the hospital were very capable of fighting individually.
Therefore, as long as everyone disperses and fights with the remnants in the form of guerrilla warfare, as much as possible to weaken the survival force, and does not confront their army, better results can be achieved.
Anyway, there is no city in the courtyard, and every inch of land must be defended, and it can be abandoned at will.
This is not a bloody battle for Han'an, they need to defend the boundary gate.
Once the war starts, there will be no more reinforcements, because all the cards are already on the table.
The only thing to note is that when it is not a large-scale war, the yin and yang swap of the bereaved is likely to appear again.
Although the courtyard has repeatedly studied Yingying's yin and yang transformation, it is not the essence after all.
Of course, there is still something to do in the underworld.
Ying Ying once wanted to try to contact the courtyard and ask them to ask the prefecture to help build another ghost gate in the Gangchao.
Her original intention was to delay time, so that Emperor Changduan would not feel that his eyebrows had been burned.
But the underworld just thinks that with such a ghost gate, the speed of the underworld's troops can be increased, and in case the war is unfavorable and the inner courtyard is defeated, even if the boundary gate cannot be opened, there will be no way out.
Although everyone's purpose is different, the idea actually coincides.
I have to say that many things are really such coincidences......
There are too many preparations before the big war, otherwise it would not have been for the bigwigs to discuss for hours.
A lot of details have been brought out to discuss.
For example, the soul knife, the underworld is now working overtime, but the efficiency is too low.
There was a situation of failure before because of being in a hurry, which directly led to the disappearance of the soul of a senior in the courtyard, and the gains outweighed the losses.
So in this case, we can only strictly control the quality, and before the war, how many can be produced, how many can be counted.
There are also three generations of white coats in the courtyard, which is the same.
It is simply not possible to meet the requirements for the equipment of the whole staff.
And since it is a super coalition that forms a shadow circle, it is better for everyone's uniforms to be uniform.
Everyone doesn't know each other, and they are scattered in a strange environment, but don't pinch them yourself.
As a result, the prefecture began to make the second generation of white coats when the three generations of white coats could not be satisfied, and strive to have a set of hands.
For this, Koyanagi Kotono had already consulted Yasui Shin that night, and replied that Onmyoji had no opinion on this and was willing to put on a white coat to fight. Words from the Wizarding Group...... It's up to Santos to do that. After all, they are an alliance, and they are not all Santos's family......
As for the high-end goods like spiritual power armor, there is really no way to do it......
Even ordinary Yin soldiers can't be equipped, let alone the inner courtyard.
The morning shift lasted about an hour, and no one spoke, and everyone listened quietly.
When the shift was over, everyone gathered together in twos and threes and discussed in a whisper.
The inner courtyard gave everyone a day to arrange their own mundane affairs.
After all, who is not dragging the family, the old and the young.
Once you set foot on the battlefield, you may never come back.
This is actually not bloody at all......
Reality is always cold.
So, no one will be enthusiastic all the time.
Of course, no one will be indifferent forever.
Most of us are just switching between hot blood and apathy all the time.
The bereaved person wants to beat us, and when you see your brothers and sisters dying in front of you, your blood will boil in an instant, and you will dare to rush up with the momentum of thousands of people with a knife. But after the fight, when you return home and see your family, you will be scared again. Afraid that if they died, what would they do?
Gain and loss, in the courtyard, is not a derogatory term......
"What, what was the result?" Seeing Wang Xi come out, Xiao Yi immediately leaned in and said with concern.
Wang Xi said: "Under Senior Brother Liu, he took twenty moves, and under Senior Brother Zhou, he took thirty moves. β
"What? Senior Brother Zhou is more powerful than Senior Brother Liu! Xiao Yi was puzzled.
"Senior Brother Zhou can't travel thousands of miles, so I held on for a while." Wang Xi looked a little tired.
"And how do you count it?" Xiaoyi asked.
Wang Xi said: "I reluctantly gave the identity of a captain, I can be like Senior Brother Liu, and I can also have Wang Xi's team." β
"Yay!" Xiao Yi cheered and jumped there, "Then how many people do you care?" β
Wang Xi held her down and said, "One." β
"Which one!?"
"What do you think?" Wang Xi said with a smile.
"Me?" Xiao Yi reacted quickly.
It seems that Wang Xi only has the qualifications to care about her, right?
Wang Xi said: "Yes, it seems to be ...... I can only leave you to me...... Uncle Zhang, don't worry......"
On the battlefield, it is estimated that only Wang Xi can sincerely block the gun for the little one.
"That'...... When does the fight start? Xiaoyi asked.
Wang Xi said: "We speculate that the bereaved will cover the entire territory with the formation of suppressing the boundary gate, and it will be as short as three months. But in case the bereaved people work overtime, day and night, it is estimated that this time will be further shortened. Moreover, with each day of delay, the less space there is for the strategic depth after we pass. But at the same time, every day passes, there will be more soul knives and three generations of white coats. I can't say exactly how to find this balance. But at least for a week, probably not. The gathering of personnel is a problem, after all, only in Shu can the boundary gate be opened. β
Wang Xi hasn't finished talking yet, for example, there is also the issue of entry procedures for the Onmyoji and the Wizard Group.
In fact, these are much better than in ancient times.
In ancient times, it took at least half a year to complete this assembly.
"Santos, they agreed to go to war?" Xiaoyi asked.
Wang Xi said: "Promise? They, like Yasui Shin, begged to come to war. Although several countries barely managed to get together 600 people, it was already very good for them. Oh, speaking of which, didn't you just ask me how many people to manage? In fact, there may be one more. β
"Who?"
"Koyanagi Kotono. Until now, Nobu Yasui has not unloaded her errands, and she is still meticulously carrying out the task of accompanying you. So she took the initiative to mention the matter before, but the courtyard has not agreed for the time being. β
"Sister Kotono...... Not bad, huh...... Didn't you say you owed them a favor before, and Sister Kotono might come to us to ask for it......"
Wang Xi smiled: "This time, that time." Who would have thought that things would eventually develop to this point. Don't talk about this, just a day off, where you want to go, I'll accompany you. β
"You're not going home?" Xiaoyi asked.
She doesn't care, anyway, Abba and Mom are going to fight, and the family is together. But Wang Xi is different, his parents are ordinary people.
Wang Xi said: "No need, they come and go in a hurry, but it makes them worry." The eighth dean, Wang Susu, and the vice dean, Liu Nian, are in Han'an at the moment, and they have already gone to see my parents for me. In this way, my mother was startled, and I thought I was in trouble in the hospital again. My dad ......"
"What's wrong with your dad?"
"My dad is good, he directly thinks that Dean Wang is a liar...... Call me...... Hahaha......"
Xiao Yi remembered that picture.
The two deans were twisted by a middle-aged uncle, but they couldn't do it, which was really interesting.
"The Eighth Courtyard came so quickly...... Xiao Yi sighed.
"Yes, the first courtyard and the second courtyard are already close. The strength is well preserved, and it is the farthest in the Eighth Courtyard, so they naturally have to take the first step. The Eighth Dean used to be from the Third Academy, and his hometown was in Baima Town, Han'an City, so he probably wanted to go back home before the war. Anyway, she and the vice dean are two people, so they don't have to run at both ends. β
"That'...... Shall we go shopping again? Watching movies, buying underwear, choosing grapefruits, just like ...... That was the case the first day we met, okay? Xiao Yi suddenly returned to the previous question.
Wang Xi "chuckled" in his heart and said, "Don't...... Don't you know that this kind of behavior, in TV, is a typical flag? As long as you do it, it will not be good. The sweeter the memories, the more abusive the ending. It's like those who like to say that they will wash their hands after this vote, and retire and die after today's shift. β
"Where to go?" Xiao Yi tilted his little head and began to think seriously, "Why don't you ask Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Liu?" β
"Senior Brother Liu wants to go back to Ziyang, and Senior Brother Zhou wants to go back to Deyang, and he can't accompany us."
"Hey, when it came to the end, I realized that I hadn't done a lot of things, but I couldn't do a single thing." Xiao Yi sighed.
Wang Xi hurriedly said: "My aunt, this kind of thing can't be said, it's unlucky." β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Uncle Chen, what did Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiaoyi do in the end?" The boy asked.
It's finally time to talk about the final battle, but I don't know where to start.
"Uncle Xiaoyi...... That's what you call it...... Yes...... But in front of outsiders, it is best to call the former president of the eleventh academy. After all...... The name has been erased by the courtyard...... "I didn't answer positively.
Sure enough, Xiao Qiao and Xiao Zhu were both aroused and said, "Is it related to the final battle?" β
"yes...... Senior Sister Yingying, her hands are stained with the blood of the courtyard. Senior Sister Xiaoyi, she can't get over the hurdle in her heart. She herself was present at the dean's meeting to erase the evidence of the existence of the innocent girl in the courtyard...... She brought it up...... Maybe in her heart, she has always been an innocent person, a person who is sad to even die a silkworm baby, and she can't stand it after killing so many people......"
Xiao Zhu said: "Uncle Taishi, I'm still more curious about what the two Taishi uncles went to do that day." β
I nodded in satisfaction.
Gossip is bigger than business.
The little ones inherited it well......
"Hehe, Senior Brother Wang and Senior Sister Xiaoyi are both neurotic. The two of them ran back to the duty room for a day and played role-playing...... "When I said this, I noticed that the faces of these children were starting to turn red.
"Hey! Where did you think of it? Why are today's children so precocious!? I yelled in embarrassment.
"Then what kind of role do you say......" Xiao Zhu said.
"It's the same as before Senior Sister Ying Ying was picked up, simulating ward rounds. It's just that there are only two of them, and they can only be Senior Brother for a while, Senior Brother Liu for a while, and Senior Brother Zhou for a while. Estimated, that is, since then...... When Senior Brother Wang is alone, he likes to talk to himself so much...... Maybe...... That'...... He thought that the three senior brothers were still there......"
