Chapter 223: The First Battle, a Fiasco
The soldiers of Zhengyang's military only had a meal of meat after a few days, and that was already a privilege that only very elite troops could enjoy.
Ordinary soldiers eat meat only twice a month.
And this group of Westerners began to eat meat as soon as they came, which was definitely a provocation and oppression of the Zhengyang army.
It can be expected that whether the other party really has so much meat, or whether the enemy deliberately wants to fight a psychological war.
In this competition, Zhengyang is at an absolute disadvantage.
Because the enemy had only five thousand cavalry. Even if you supply meat for several days in a row, you can make it up by gritting your teeth.
But on the other hand, Zhengyang, now there are more than 100,000 troops around the imperial capital, and if you want to keep morale from low, unless Zhengyang's 100,000 troops also eat meat every day.
But this is something that cannot be done, and even if it is done, it will only offset the impact of Westerners this time.
Such an account can be easily calculated, and all of this is being done by Westerners to add layers of scheming to their own agendas.
Because this matter is actually not difficult to think about the key to it, if Zhengyang can win in the Zhengyang martial arts competition, all these schemes will be easily dismantled.
But if Zhengyang loses to the West in this martial arts competition.
Then this psychological oppression on the army's meat will magnify the blow to the morale of the Zhengyang military.
Zhengyang once again refreshed his perception of the other party at this moment, and Westerners are indeed doing everything.
The two sides are constantly fighting invisibly.
So far, Zhengyang has not once taken the initiative.
This made Mi Yusong, who had always been calm, frown frequently, but in front of his subordinates, he couldn't show anything.
And Emperor Xuyang comforted Mi Yusong on this day.
Zhengyang has never been a country that can be easily defeated, and the Han nation has never been a democracy that can easily succumb to power.
The Han nation has gone through so many dynasties since ancient times, and it has never been easily defeated.
And now the situation in Zhengyang is steadily improving.
At least it's not that bad.
The king of Xuzhou has already left the imperial capital, and he is secretly leaving.
Not many people knew that he had been here, and few knew how powerful the power he had cultivated in secret was.
In this Zhengyang, there are many young and strong people under the command of the king of Xuzhou County who fight for Zhengyang.
The heritage of Zhengyang still exists.
There are still ten days left before Zhengyang.
At this time, a big war suddenly broke out in the rivers and lakes.
The entire righteous path forces carried out a purge of the remaining demonic forces.
It seems that there is a traitor in the demonic forces, and the traitor revealed the last hiding place of the demonic forces to the righteous sect.
Under the strong leadership of Luoshen Villa, a group of old-timers from the Zhengdao Jianghu Sect canceled their original plan to come to the imperial capital to participate in this Zhengyang incomparable plan.
Instead, he participated in the elimination of the remaining forces of the Demon Dao.
And just after these master seniors broke away from the team that went to the imperial capital with the young disciples of their own sect, the team of these young disciples actually encountered a terrible ambush.
The ambush was led by a group of screaming Japanese people.
They are not strong individually, but they are superior in numbers and armed with strong weapons.
Even everyone has a bow and a crossbow in their hands.
As soon as it came up, there was a series of volleys.
This group of young disciples of the sect who went to the imperial capital to participate in Zhengyang were hit hard in an instant.
As soon as the news reached the imperial court, Mi Yusong revealed the situation to Liu Xin.
Liu Xin left the imperial capital for the first time, and the occurrence of such a thing at this time cannot make people wonder if it is a ghost done by Westerners.
But there is no evidence for these things.
When Liu Xin arrived at the scene, he only saw the mess on the ground and the corpses of many Japanese people.
But there are not too many corpses of Jianghu warriors at the scene, which means that these Jianghu warriors should have escaped from this ambush, and now they should be in a situation of chasing and fleeing.
Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Xin followed the traces of the scene, and this was also a great opportunity for him to complete one of his mission panel tasks.
Now he wants to get more mission rewards, because it will further strengthen his own strength.
The strength of Westerners has broken through again and again, and Liu Xin's cognition is so powerful even for the younger generation, not to mention the old powerhouses of Westerners.
For example, the sect of the Holy See Knights, his strength is already at the absolute peak in Zhengyang's opinion. But for Westerners, it's only at the bottom of the list of the hundred.
Of course, the 50 most crucial places on that list are monopolized by that group of young people in the West.
As a result, the Papal Order instructor was slightly behind in the rankings.
If it is rated according to the real combat power, his strength should be among the top fifty.
But this is only a preliminary list analyzed by various intelligence organizations.
Even if this list is absolutely true, then these fifty people are only in an army of only 110,000 people.
The density of such strong people has far exceeded that of Zhengyang.
On that day, Mi Yusong and Liu Xin also talked about this when they communicated.
For Zhengyang, what they want to do is to achieve a perfect victory in the oppression of Zhengyang by the Westerner expeditionary force.
Otherwise, Zhengyang will face one difficult invasion after another.
Once Westerners find out the reality of Zhengyang, it will definitely cause countless troubles later.
Under Liu Xin's tracking, he finally found this group of Tianjiao.
Of course, Liu Xin found these young people when he found this group of Tianjiao.
Where are the young people, just a pack of wolves in sheep's clothing!
A group of old monsters put on the clothes of young people, pretend to be invincible, and then fight back!
When Liu Xin arrived, this group of Japanese people had almost been killed.
And behind this group of Japanese people turned out to be the remnants of the three major tribes of the Northern Barbarians and the True Demon Sect, and these people were all hooked together.
At this time, Liu Xin knew that the intelligence organizations including the Holy Sect and Emperor Wu City and even the intelligence organizations of the imperial court had already spread all over the world, and they had already known about this attack.
This time it was a reverse ambush by this group of old monsters in the rivers and lakes against the True Demon Sect.
The results of the battle are also very remarkable, in this operation, these old-timers have captured a lot of live mouths, and there are even high-grade Dacheng Realm level prisoners.
After being brought back to the imperial capital, after several days of torture, the real culprit behind the scenes was finally asked.
The real culprit behind the scenes is still the True Demon Sect, but there must be other people behind the True Demon Sect.
They are trying to sabotage this time Zhengyang is incomparable, so that Zhengyang is completely defeated.
And in this matter, Zhengyang first eliminated suspicion of Shu Guogong.
Because he also participated in the interrogation of Liu Xin, through the attribute panel, he did not see a single person under the Duke of Shu in this group of people.
However, there are many factors about the Duke of Shu in the confessions of these people.
It is very simple to judge that this is someone deliberately confusing the public and trying to seduce the eyes of the imperial court to the Duke of Shu.
But because Liu Xin is here, and Mi Yusong is not a fool.
It will soon be possible to judge the whole story of this matter, and there must be another deeper force hidden behind the True Demon Sect.
It is because of them that there is so much chaos in the entire Zhengyang.
And Liu Xin immediately thought of the mysterious Sun Gongzi.
This person is a figure who is very deeply involved in the True Demon Sect.
But Liu Xin didn't find any information about this person from beginning to end, and even if he launched Jinyiwei and the secret investigation team, he couldn't find such a person.
But if the other party is really a Zhengyang person or a person in the rivers and lakes, it is impossible not to show his feet at all.
But what if the other party is a top force like Roselle Villa......
With Roselle Villa as a cover, it is not so difficult to hide a person.
The key showdown between Zhengyang and the Westerners is just around the corner, and it is impossible for Liu Xin to break away at this time to investigate Roselle Villa.
His heart wouldn't allow him to do that.
Under such circumstances, this duel between Zhengyang and Westerners officially ushered in the day of war.
The first battle was an exchange match, which was played by Huangfu Rongjiang, who won the Zhengyang martial arts competition three years ago, and one person from the West.
This can be regarded as a battle of morale between the two sides in the future.
Huangfu Rongjiang was a medium-grade Dacheng realm three years ago, and now he has finally set foot in the high-grade Dacheng realm.
Liu Xin sat in the audience, looking at the Huangfu Rongjiang on the field, but worry rose in his heart.
It's not that Huangfu Rongjiang is not strong enough, but the one opposite is too perverted.

Huangfu Rongjiang's strength is not a little stronger than three years ago, at least it can be said that he has not wasted the past three years.
But his opponent is just too strong, even a little perverted.
Is this the strength of the full members of the Holy See Knights of the Holy Roman Empire?
If you extrapolate from this strength, Liu Xin has no expectations for Zhengyang.

Judging from the attribute panel alone, this Iko Ramirez's combat power is simply stable in all aspects!
After the two came on the field, the people of Zhengyang immediately burst into cheers and cheered for Huangfu Rongjiang.
The momentum soared into the sky, making this huge venue specially built for this competition tremble slightly.
Iko Ramirez was a tall young man with a large beard, wearing silver armor that almost protected his teeth.
He put on the helmet he held in his arms, took out his knight's sword, erected it on his chest, and saluted Huangfu Rongjiang.
Huangfu Rongjiang was slightly stunned, and immediately returned the salute.
The two sides saluted, the salute was thoughtful, and the next moment they shot at the same time, mercilessly, and decisively!
Both of them are top-grade Dacheng realms, and the speed is absolutely shocking.
Ordinary people couldn't see what was happening at all, and the two had already slammed into each other.
At this time, Huangfu Rongjiang didn't know the fact that the other party was crushing him in all aspects, but even if he knew, he would still use his full strength.
[Long Yu True Qi] operated to the extreme, and there was a real dragon phantom on the side of Huangfu Rongjiang, and this scene made Aiko Ramirez's eyes look different.
But then came the bloodthirsty fury in the eyes of Iko Ramirez.
With the [Dragon True Qi] body protection, Huangfu Rongjiang is almost completely close to fight with Echo Ramirez.
Eko Ramirez's knightly sword is relatively large, and it is actually not advantageous in close melee situations.
The two sides fought fiercely for dozens of moves, and it was Huangfu Rongjiang who pressed Iko Ramirez all the time.
This also made the morale of the surrounding soldiers and civilians skyrocket.
But Liu Xin frowned.
If it goes on like this, Huangfu Rongjiang will be defeated!
Sure enough, when the two sides fought to hundreds of moves, Eco Ramirez had also been pressed to the edge of the test table by Huangfu Rongjiang.
The rules of this martial arts competition were formulated by the Zhengyang side.
Even if you lose if you fall out of the ring, this is also a rule that is beneficial to Zhengyang.
At this time, Huangfu Rongjiang just wanted to force the other party out of the ring in one go!
But just when Iko Ramirez's heel stepped on the edge of the ring, Huangfu Rongjiang was about to burst out with all his strength, and even opened the strange pulse [Force Pulse]!
But the Ike Ramirez opposite him also suddenly gushed out a smell of blood at this moment, Huangfu Rongjiang frowned and felt bad, and the next moment Iko Ramirez had broken through Huangfu Rongjiang's heavy gun sweep, and his body came to Huangfu Rongjiang's chest like a ghost, and the two sides were almost together!
Huangfu Rongjiang put away his gun and prepared to trap the other party.
However, there was a scarlet glint in Echo Ramirez's eyes, and the huge body of the knight's sword somehow appeared in the middle of the two.
Those who were present with advanced cultivation only saw a flash of red light, and Huangfu Rongjiang had already been swept away, and at the same time, his chest was full of blood marks, and streams of blood rushed out wildly, sprinkling the entire ring!
And Iko Ramirez was unforgiving, and the whole person turned into a bloody shadow and chased towards Huangfu Rongjiang, and the knight's sword in his hand was even closer to the key point of Huangfu Rongjiang!
At this moment, the onlookers inside and outside the stadium, the cheers came to an abrupt end, and no matter how unwilling everyone was, they had to confirm one thing in their hearts.
In the first battle, Zhengyang is afraid to lose!
Liu Xin knows better that this battle is a fiasco!
