Chapter 560: Question

Xie Caiwei quickly retracted her gaze after all.

Through the gap in the tent, she could already hear the sound coming from the Chinese army's tent not far away.

This meeting is very important.

And Xie Caiwei actually wanted to be seated, but she didn't join in the fun, because people with a discerning eye didn't need to listen at all, and they could know what they were talking about.

"Lancang crosses the river. ”

Sure enough, the word came out of the tent so frequently that it could be heard even here.

Xie Caiwei looked at the map on the table and was silent.

After a year of fighting, the Northwest Army has completely reversed the general trend of the two sides, and the whole army is full of confidence, and at this time, the army has also moved away from the northwest and arrived at the Lancang River.

The Lancang River is the source of water that feeds the entire capital, and it is one of the top five major rivers among the tributaries flowing out of the thousand mountains.

As long as the army crosses this blockade river, and then until the capital, it is a flat road, and there is almost no natural danger and a big city can be defended.

In other words, this river is the last pass to defend the capital, and once it is conquered, the capital will be completely fatally passive, and when the army enters the capital, the imperial court will fall into a fatal crisis.

Everyone understands this.

Therefore, not long ago, the imperial court soldiers and horses simply gave up all defenses on this side, and all withdrew to the east bank of Lancang, and built the strongest defense and gathered the strongest military strength, obviously to use this as a decisive battle in advance.

Advance decisive battle...... This is not an exaggeration, both sides have almost gathered all their military forces on both sides, the Northwest Army cannot afford to delay, it will inevitably take the initiative to attack, and this time if the imperial court wins, it will be able to pull the situation back again, and take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the "rebels".

And the Northwest Army is the same, if it wins, then it can take Kyoto directly, and if it is defeated...... It will cause all the power and momentum accumulated in the previous more than a year to collapse.

And the key to the victory of this war lies in the practitioners.

Neither the Qiguo Army nor the Northwest Army have never been very good at water warfare, so there is not much difference in this point, and the Northwest Army is carrying the general momentum at this time, and the whole army is in full swing, while the imperial court is demoralized in the continuous rout.

Therefore, the whole army was confident that if only the soldiers fought and the river could be crossed, the crux of the problem was whether the cultivators could win a big victory, and if not, as long as the other side made a few people stand on the river, the Northwest Army would not be able to cross it.

This is not a flat battle array, it is difficult to fight on the river, once a cultivator is not afraid of the threat of the killing qi of the battle array, he can easily block the river, making it difficult for more than 100,000 people to take half a step!

Therefore, people understand that the key to determining the victory or defeat of the battle to cross the river lies in the competition of top cultivators.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Shan finally came out of the mountain and rushed here, not only him, but both forces are doing their best to invite the Four Realms Grandmasters they can find to help, and it is expected that there will be the only and largest battle of the Four Realms Great Cultivators in hundreds of years.

It is precisely because Xie Caiwei understands these that she knows more about the danger of the upcoming decisive battle, and all she can do is to practice hard.

Suddenly, another person passed by outside the tent.

Xie Caiwei looked out and found that it was Su Jian.

Su Jian seemed to be aware of it, stopped his steps, turned his head to look, and said with a slight surprise in his eyes: "Why didn't you go to the big tent of the Chinese army?"

Xie Caiwei walked out, came to Su Jian and replied respectfully: "It makes no difference whether I observe or not the major military aircraft events. ”

Su Jian admired the girl's honesty and straightforwardness very much, and said with a smile: "You are straightforward." ”

The girl smiled back.

Su Jian also sighed and said: "But what you said is also true, it is necessary for those officers to listen to orders, it is really useless for cultivators such as me to run over, in short, in the end, it is nothing more than going into battle to kill, life and death depend on their ability." ”

Xie Caiwei thought about it when she heard this, and asked, "Then what do seniors think we have a chance of crossing the river this time?"

"The odds?" Su Jian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a wry smile: "How can this kind of thing be predicted? ”

Xie Caiwei bit her lip and said, "Is there only a fifty percent chance of winning?"

Su Jian couldn't help but look at the girl's appearance, and said comfortingly: "You must know that if you fought such a decisive battle a year ago, the chance of winning was less than thirty percent, and the imperial court has been seriously injured and even fallen to the four realms in the past year, so this can be regarded as closing the gap."

And although this battle should be fought in the four realms, but if the Northern Sect will not be like this, you must know that the sword formation of the Northern Sect is extremely powerful, although its sect was split before, and its strength was greatly damaged, but if the remaining sect disciples condensed the sword array, the ordinary four realms could not stop it, so the odds of winning fifty percent were already very good. ”

"But......" Xie Caiwei naturally understood the truth in Su Jian's words, but she still couldn't help but speak.

"Hmm, do you have doubts?" Su Jian finally noticed the girl's abnormality.

For Xie Caiwei, a junior, Su Jian admired it very much, and the reason for this was that it was Xie Caiwei who urged the time scroll to help Su Jian kill a Great Cultivator of the Four Realms, and with this relationship, he was very willing to relieve her confusion.

Xie Caiwei hesitated, looked around and saw that there was no one else, then took a deep breath and asked, "Senior Su, I really don't understand something." ”

"Oh? ”

The girl frowned and said: "I know that the royal family's secret star picker has great power, and each generation of emperors can obtain the power of the Five Realms as long as they inherit the throne, and now His Majesty in the capital, whether it is true or not, but the power should still be the Five Realms."

I know that due to the limitations of the Great Star Picker, the farther the emperor leaves the Star Picking Tower, the weaker his strength will be, so he has not left the capital yet, but if we only have a fifty percent chance of winning across the river, even if we win in the end, there will be casualties, and when we arrive in the capital, when the time comes, facing the emperor and facing a powerful cultivator who is invincible in the world of the Five Realms, will we still have a way to defeat him?"

After saying these words, the girl stared at Su Jian with round eyes, wanting to get an answer.

This question has been lingering in her mind for too long.

Even when she had just learned that the war had begun, she had this confusion, but she had endured not to ask anyone, or rather, she didn't know who to talk to about these thoughts, and now it was not far from the capital, and it was time for the river that would flow through Wuyi Lane and flow outside the window of her small building, she finally couldn't help it anymore and asked this question that made her confused and frightened.

Because she has been thinking about it for the past year, she really can't think of what they can come up with to defeat that emperor!

Facing the girl's gaze, Su Jian hesitated, he knew that this problem was not only thought about by the girl in front of him, as long as the vision was wise enough to pass, it had been considered.

The reason why no one openly asked one was because of fear in their hearts, and the other was because of the intentional control of the leaders of the most core forces in the entire Zhang Ling group.

At this time, Su Jian, who was a high-level elder of the Southern Sect, couldn't help but hesitate when he looked directly at Xie Caiwei.

After being silent for a while, he suddenly sighed and said helplessly: "It's really not a good thing to read too much, what to do if you want things to go so far, this is not something you should consider, wouldn't it be in vain for you to increase your troubles." ”

After saying this, Su Jian shook his head, sighed again, and turned to leave.

He didn't give a clear answer after all.

But Xie Caiwei, who has always been smart, was slightly stunned at first, and then a clear light suddenly appeared in her confused and confused eyes.
