Sheng Fu

Chapter 720 Occasional Understanding

The next day.

After breakfast, Han Xiu led 30,000 golden-armored soldiers to the Black Mountain area.

The Hengchang soldiers are still stationed in the southern plains in case of emergency.

After all, the injured soldiers under Li Guangxin needed care, so the 5,000 elite soldiers of Hengchang Sect temporarily became logistical troops. However, this was also a good thing for Yuwen Jun.

This incident can be used to ease some of the conflicts between Hengchang Sect and the human military.

Inside the big tent, Jing Peiyao was still recuperating. Although that sword strike was stunning enough, it also caused the true energy in Jing Peiyao's body to backfire. She had not been having an easy time these past few days.

Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao also had a rare moment of leisure. The 30,000 golden armored troops had already been dispatched, so it was no longer important whether they went to the battlefield or not.

Suddenly, a familiar breath spread within Yu Wenjun's perception range.

Yu Wenjun glanced at his wife who was still recuperating, then crossed the void in one step and came to a stream a hundred miles away.

Beside the stream, there is an exquisite tent without any fences, and a tea table with tea floating in the air and a variety of fruit snacks on the table. The national teacher Li Hongshan sits here, enjoying the spring breeze on the plain.

When Yu Wenjun arrived, he naturally sat down next to Li Hongshan, and his tea was Wannianchun tea.

"Why did you come to me?" Yu Wenjun asked puzzled.

He originally thought that the Imperial Master would only come to him when he was needed, but he did not expect that the Imperial Master would come in person right now.

Li Hongshan glanced at Yu Wenjun and said bluntly: "The Conferred God Technique should be handed over to His Majesty by you through the White Deer Academy."

Yu Wenjun was unmoved and said, "As far as I know, Guan Shanhai is also a saint who has lived for a thousand years. Why would he be so disrespectful to that old man? Bailu Academy has a profound foundation. It should not be difficult for them to consult ancient books and compile the Conferred God Technique."

Seeing that Yu Wenjun did not admit it, Li Hongshan stopped asking, because there was no point in asking further, just like you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.

"Congratulations on your achievement in military service. The human world has begun to praise the perfect match between you and the empress's descendant." Li Hongshan said with a smile.

Yu Wenjun said modestly: "It was just a coincidence. If it weren't for Li Guangxin's delay and Hu Leibao's underestimation of the enemy, we would never have succeeded."

"You probably didn't come here for small talk."

As soon as Yu Wenjun put down his teacup, Li Hongshan refilled it for him and said softly, "The Golden Armor Army will go ahead. At noon today, Yue Bo's 100,000-strong army will arrive at the southern plains to support the Golden Armor Army."

"The war is about to begin."

"I also heard that this time the death energy injury is difficult to heal, and I also know that Mr. Guo is refining pills."

"I also know that the medicine for the elixir is the essence and blood of the Nether Snake Clan."

Yu Wenjun looked calm and asked, "How did you know?"

Li Hongshan said: "I guessed it. After all, I already knew that you had taken in the Nether Snake Clan. It just so happens that this race is the best at devouring death energy."

The logic is simple.

Yu Wenjun asked directly: "So, what does the Grand Master want me to do next?"

"Let's make it clear in advance that Yinglong and Chiyuan will not appear on the battlefield. The situation north of the North Sea is not stable at the moment."

"There are some noble families in the north who are secretly communicating with the God Clan, and we have not yet found any clues in this matter."

"In this battle, Hengchang Sect can only add icing on the cake, but cannot provide timely assistance."

Li Hongshan laughed and said, "Your Highness is joking. Your Highness and the heir of the Empress teamed up to kill the Lingxiao monster, which is already the first achievement. Now he is helping Mr. Guo to refine the elixir, which can be regarded as a timely help."

"I came here today to tell Your Highness that if you want to withdraw your troops, you can do so now. You don't need to force yourself in this battle."

"But regarding the pills refined by Mr. Guo, this military expenditure will be directly awarded to the Guo family from the national treasury, and Your Highness may not be able to get any real money from it." Yu Wenjun sensed something strange. This was not Li Hongshan's way of doing things.

"It would be embarrassing to withdraw troops now," said Yuwen Jun.

Li Hongshan said: "Your Majesty has ordered that you can withdraw your troops."

Yu Wenjun was stunned for a moment, what was going on?

Li Hongshan said: "His Majesty trusts you. You have already made a good story on the battlefield. You also have to take care of the important task of defending the North Sea. You can't delay too long in the battlefield of the Demon Realm."

"The spirits also trust you. You are a big shot now, so don't work too hard."

"Once you work too hard, people will laugh at you."

Yu Wenjun understood and said, "I have become a bridge between the human race and the spirit race, and I play an irreplaceable role."

"But I was like this before. Why didn't you take me so seriously before?"

Li Hongshan smiled helplessly and said, "Because in the past, you could handle many things, and your Hengchang Sect was still strong in military strength. But now, your Hengchang Sect is in financial difficulties, and you have to build the Hengchang Academy in Qiushui County, so the military is short of manpower."

"Everything is stretched thin, so we need to take care of what we need to take care of."

"You took the initiative to lead the army here this time. His Majesty is very touched. A fierce battle is imminent. Five thousand soldiers are really useless. If they stay here, they will inevitably be bullied."

Yu Wenjun picked up the teacup and took a sip. For the first time, he tasted the flavor of Jiangshanhong that Bai Xiaowei had tasted. It was a flavor that belonged only to politicians. He smiled faintly and said, "You are really considerate. I am very pleased."

"Are there any other instructions?"

Li Hongshan said, "I dare not say the word 'order' in front of Your Highness. Your Highness, please forgive me."

Yu Wenjun put down the teacup and left.

Inside the camp.

Jing Peiyao was still meditating on the futon to recuperate. After Yu Wenjun returned, Jing Peiyao subconsciously opened her eyes and asked softly, "What is it that is worth you going there in person?"

Yu Wenjun replied, "I had a chat with the Imperial Master for a while. Yue Bo's 100,000-strong army will arrive at the southern plains at noon. The Imperial Master said that we can withdraw now."

"Five thousand people, if they stay here, it will be difficult to be effective."

Jing Peiyao frowned slightly and said, "So, withdraw the troops?"

Yu Wenjun said: "What Li Hongshan said makes some sense. Hengchang's troops cannot withstand the consumption."

"But if I leave now, it will seem embarrassing. I am in a dilemma."

“Maybe, what we want is our attitude.”

"See if we're willing to fight for the Terrans."

Jing Peiyao suddenly had an idea and said, "We don't need to withdraw to Henglong Mountain. We can retreat to Saibei City to recuperate and wait for the right time. Once there is a suitable opportunity, we will lead the troops to the battlefield."

Yu Wenjun smiled knowingly and said, "That makes sense. Why didn't I think of that?"

"But we have to wait until noon, until the 100,000-strong army arrives, before we set off."

In the camp, wounded soldiers died one after another. Even though two hundred military doctors arrived, they were powerless in the face of the erosion of death energy. At most, they could use some tonics to prolong the lives of the soldiers.

Mr. Guo’s medicine has become the only hope for many people to survive.

But it is destined that the hopes of many people will be shattered.
