Chapter 100 - The Tripartite Alliance
Qi State's current last control territory, that is, the southern Huicheng, due to the temporary withdrawal of the Dark Legion, the soldiers patrolling the city finally got a respite, and Sun Hao, the governor of Huicheng, immediately ordered the people to try to go out of the city to find something that could provide rations.
The fishing industry flourished in Huicheng, and the Dark Legion obscured the sky and blocked the sun, and it was difficult to get a good harvest of food now, but it was possible to catch fish as a valuable ration.
Sun Hao was also making preparations, on the one hand, he tried to let the skilled old boatman take the young and strong young man out of the Hanhai from the southern city, looking for sea species that might be used as food as a valuable food supply, and on the other hand, due to the temporary withdrawal of the dark army, he also took the opportunity to send several secret agents to secretly go to the border between the Feng State and the Qi State.
The order and task given to these scouts was to ask them to find out by all means, whether the two girls, Nangong Yun and Feng Shanshan, had now successfully obtained the food support provided by the feudal queen Bu Lian, which was the best way to solve their current food shortage crisis.
And in his heart, Sun Hao is really worried about the safety of these two girls, Luo Yinying needless to say, Feng Shanshan is also their extremely important partner, whether it is public or private, he will never want these two girls to be in any danger. Therefore, the day after Feng Yuchong and the others did not return to Huicheng and confirmed that the Dark Legion had withdrawn, Sun Hao immediately sent four elite spies, carrying the few remaining dry foods, to inquire about the news.
In addition to confirming the whereabouts of Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, Sun Hao's other two spies were advancing towards the north of Qi State, and they were ordered to find His Majesty Xuan Lejun's wife, Yun Guifei Xia Yun, and their child, this child is the widow of His Majesty Xuan Lejun, and is also the most orthodox heir of Qi State. Sun Hao already had an idea, not to mention finding their benefits, he could better win the hearts of the military and the people.
These young people, without exception, don't really want to be in charge of all the military and political powers, although these things are now under their control, whether it is Sun Hao or anti-Feng Yuchong, they don't really like the court, they yearn for that kind of unrestrained and free life. Why Feng Yuchong misses the bamboo forest life when he was a child so much is also because of his heart.
Now it is a last resort, and because of some coincidences, they have become the highest-ranking officials in the Qi State, holding military and political power, both the people and the officials are very supportive of them, and even have the idea of letting them preside over the government of the Qi State.
But Sun Hao felt that he still needed to find the widow of His Majesty Xuan Lejun and put him on the throne, firstly, he could have a status symbol, and secondly, they could also prove in this way that although they actually held military and political power, they had no ambition to become emperors on their own.
The four elite agents scattered and began to act, and the news would not be transmitted so quickly. Now there is only Sun Hao left in the city, and he will naturally stay here and will not leave here easily.
Although darkness still shrouded the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, turning this prosperous continent full of life into a lifeless, almost lifeless place. But Sun Hao is very confident that in this battle of the Rising Star that has lasted for nearly a year, the Dark Army has changed from being aggressive and sharp at the beginning to confronting each other.
The intention of the Dark Legion is also very clear, that is, to find all seven Creation Divine Artifacts and release the true Dark Legion to deal with them. This also shows in disguise that the Dark Legion does not have a way to directly eliminate them all, and they still have the possibility of turning the situation around.
As for the possibility of reversing the situation, Sun Hao's heart was like a mirror, Yu Fei and Nangong Yun had already rushed to Shengcheng, where the forces of the white-clothed Heavenly Maiden were stationed, and the idea of a tripartite alliance was really the key to opening up the situation for all forces on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent.
With the Dark Legion temporarily leaving the city, this tripartite alliance that had already taken shape has become even more important, and the Qi State must reach this alliance no matter what, so as to use the forces of the white-clothed celestial maiden and the forces that have left the country to distract the attention of the Dark Legion, so as to win the key point, open up the situation, find the flaws of the Dark Legion, and strive to win the victory in this battle of the Rising Star.
The key to this is to prevent the Dark Legion from finding all seven Creation Divine Artifacts as much as possible, these seven Creation Divine Artifacts are the key to the Dark Legion's breakthrough, once the Dark Evil God uses his soul to cooperate with his own body, his divine power hidden in the soul can also be released, and the power he can show at that time is not something they can fight.
It is precisely because of this that Sun Hao and Feng Yuchong have reached such a consensus from the very beginning, and they must promote this key tripartite alliance as soon as possible. The three parties must abandon any selfishness and mistrust, and go all out to accomplish this supreme goal, eliminate the Dark Legion, or at least drive them out of the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent.
As Feng Yu rushed to the north for them, Sun Hao was the only one left in the city, although he was very worried about the safety of his companions, especially the most important two girls, Luo Yinying and Feng Shanshan, there was no news so far, and Sun Hao couldn't completely calm down.
The importance of these two girls is not only because they are companions and old friends, Sun Hao is even a partner with Luo Yinying. But these are only personal relationships, and the more important tasks and missions carried by these two girls are directly related to whether the soldiers and civilians inside and outside the city can continue to persevere, which is very important.
Sun Hao has been in the city for the longest time, he knows better than anyone else the crisis that is now lurking in the city, although the people's hearts and the army's hearts are very stable, but once the food is cut off, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents, which is also what he is most worried about at present.
In the past two days, Sun Hao can be seen walking back and forth on the north city wall with the widest field of vision on the city tower, and his body often appears here, and his eyes have always been in the direction of the closed country, and everyone can see that Sun Hao is waiting for news that is enough to make him happy.
The soldiers who followed him also knew that this seemingly strong governor of Huicheng was carrying pressure that others could not imagine, and he hoped more than anyone else that Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying could return as soon as possible.
Counting today, the multi-way secret agents sent by Sun Hao have been gone for three days, although the work of three days can't even catch up with the territory of the sealed country, but Sun Hao still has some illusions, hoping that they can pass on the effective news back as soon as possible, at least let him have a number in his heart.
......
The border between Feng and Qi is quite long, from Shenghai in the north to Hanhai in the south, the Xuanling River, which is thousands of miles long, has become the natural dividing line between the two countries, and it is precisely because of this natural dividing line that the Xuanling River is also known as the "Mother River".
There is a place where the water is turbulent on the bank of the Xuanling River, and the Xuanling River, which is not far from Shengcheng, is where the water flow is the most rapid, and there are undercurrents and whirlpools. Not long ago, it was here that the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao used his soul transformation ability to use two half-side keys as a guide and the Xuanling River as a mirror to open the eternal lock and release the dark legion on the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent.
Even the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao, who opened the eternal lock. He didn't know that this Eternal Lock was not only the only passage connecting the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent and the Shenye Demon Spirit Continent, it was also the carrier of the greatest power of the Creation God on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent.
As the basin slows down, the flow of the Xuanling River gradually decreases from the central part of the two countries, and the undercurrents of the whirlpools are significantly reduced, which can be said to be unstable.
In the southern region, the basin of the Xuanling River gradually moved westward and moved closer to the position of the feudal state. Adjacent to the Xuanling River, are all fishermen who fish in the Xuanling River for a living, whether it is a feudal country or a Qi country, the southern fishery is very prosperous, on the one hand is the Hanhai Sea, on the other hand is the Xuanling River.
Originally, the fishermen who could be seen everywhere on both sides of the Xuanling River were docked on the shore, and the fishing boats were moored on the shore with cables. At the end of the fishing moratorium, hundreds of fishing boats compete to catch fish, and the sight can be described as spectacular.
The arrival of the Dark Legion also affected these fishermen who lived on the Xuanling River, the upper reaches of the Xuanling River were greatly affected, and because there was no guarantee in the area where they were located, once the Dark Legion came, they would be the prey at their fingertips. As a result, the fishermen returned to nearby towns early to take refuge.
Similarly, whether it is the Qi State or the Feng State, after clearly realizing the horror of the Dark Legion, they immediately began to move the people, as much as possible to save the lives of the people, in order to avoid the final result of not being able to inherit and reproduce.
As for some people who cannot take care of and preserve, they are really powerless. Everywhere the Dark Legion goes, no chickens or dogs, whether it is cattle or houses, are all mercilessly killed and destroyed by the Dark Legion, and the people who will be killed use the means of darkness to brutally turn them into irrational and unconscious killing machines.
The humanoid soldiers in the Dark Legion suffered a lot of damage during the attack on the city, but no one knows if these humanoid soldiers are former compatriots. Where the crossbow arrows passed, these fallen humanoid soldiers may not be able to be freed.
The Xuanling River, the mother river that once fed tens of thousands of people in both countries on both sides of the river, has long since disappeared due to the arrival of the Dark Legion and the wanton destruction of the influence, and even some areas with slightly narrower basins have been cut off.
Dream City is not far from the Xuanling River, and there are no other counties nearby, the geographical location of Dream City is quite remote, independent in a remote area that almost no one cares about, leaving the world. It is precisely in this situation that it is easy to be ignored that Dream City has become the place where the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao raised his troops, of course, this is also because their family, the Zheng family's own base is here.
This city is also one of the only two cities that the Sealing War Society can control, in addition to the national capital Zhongcheng, it is the place where the Sealing War Society raised its troops, stationed with 5,000 Feng War Society troops, led by the henchman of the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao, Qin Lang. The main purpose of surviving the army here is to protect the secret of the war in the city.
On this day, the soldiers on the castle tower were still patrolling the whiteboard, and the place they were in was far away from the war, and they could not experience anything other than the fact that they could not see the sun for the time being, so life was no different from before.
Outside the city, on the bank of the Xuanling River, a fleet quietly sailed out from not far away, moving quickly in the direction of Qi State......
