Reaching the other shore starting from the research and development of Yi Jin Jing.

Chapter 548 The entire southern continent is in chaos!

"Some countries that were hit the hardest and faced the most difficult situations even gave up most of their territory, and suffered heavy losses."

"Thanks to the fact that the ocean beasts cannot leave the ocean for too long or too far, these countries have barely managed to keep their national prosperity, but their territory and population have been greatly damaged, and the loss of national strength is too great!"

"These coastal countries are having trouble getting what they want along the coast. How can they make up for the lost territory?"

“Only inland!”

"As early as mid-July, coastal countries have been expanding inland one after another. They are trying to take advantage of others. They can't defeat the ocean beasts or the endless four ocean beasts, but after these coastal countries have freed up most of their territory and most of their manpower, they can finally take over the inland areas that they couldn't take care of before. They are easier to deal with than the ocean beasts."

"Flames of war, flying!"

"We are all in the Southern Continent, so let's just say the Southern Continent—"

"The first-rate country 'Feixue' that escaped from the Southern Ocean was a fierce dragon that crossed the river. It took advantage of the coastal 'Jiutong' country's invasion of the inland and accidentally confronted the four third-rate countries 'Monsoon', 'Long Eyebrow', 'Fengyu', and 'Yanfeng'. With the ocean ruins beast attacking it, it took the opportunity to seize 'Jiutong'. When 'Jiutong' was in danger, it asked for help from 'Ronghai', a first-rate country in the southern continent, but 'Feixue' got help from another first-rate country in the southern continent, 'Cangchun'."

"In just one month, the situation changed several times. The conflict between the wandering country 'Flying Snow Country' and the second-rate coastal 'Nine Tongues Country' was the fuse. The only two first-rate countries in the southern continent, 'Ronghai Country' and 'Cangchun Country', participated. Almost half of the southern continent was dragged into the war, and few were spared."

"The entire southern continent is in chaos."

"My Tieyi Territory is located in the third-rate country 'Zuoshan Country' which is relatively close to your Tan Gu Territory and Jinze area. It is currently at war with the second-rate country 'Donghou Country' on the eastern coast. 'Donghou Country' is invading and 'Zuoshan Country' is defending. However, they are still in the stage of testing each other. Not only the Overlord Realm, but even the God of War Realm rarely appear."

……

Mr. Zhong, the 'Hidden Swordsman', one of the Five Friends of the Tieyi Sect, is a talkative person. The Tieyi Realm is located in the Southern Continent. He knows the situation in the Mountain and Sea Realm, especially the Southern Continent, very well, but at least he knows the general direction very well. He can explain the current situation of the Southern Continent clearly to Yan Chuang in just a few words.

Mr. Zhong spread out a map, which was the distribution map of various forces in the southern continent.

From this we can see directly that -

The 'Jinze Region' where Tan Gu, Hun Xi, Shan Hu and other territories are located is located in the southwest corner of the southern continent. It is remote and barren.

From the 'Kanazawa region' all the way eastward, there are also large areas with relatively scarce resources, very few people and strong people, and they are all 'bulk forces', and there is no country occupying them.

The first country you encounter after crossing this vast area is the 'Zuoshan Kingdom'.

Starting from the "Zuoshan Kingdom", the number of surrounding countries increased suddenly. In addition to the "Zuoshan Kingdom", there were two third-rate countries, "Longyu" and "Meiyang", but these two countries have always been on good terms and shared the same spirit. The "Donghou Kingdom" further east picked on the weak and chose the "Zuoshan Kingdom".

"Zuoshan Country!"

"There it is again!"

Yan Chuang looked at the "Zuoshan Country" marked in red on the map and couldn't help but sigh.

Earlier in his "Royal City Championship", he had encountered a team recruiting from the "Zuoshan Kingdom". Later, when he achieved enlightenment, Tan Yunqing sent him the "Zuoshan Order", which allowed him to directly participate in the capital stage of the "Genius Battle" held by the Zuoshan Kingdom. Yan Chuang still carries that "Zuoshan Order" with him.

This time, Mr. Zhong emphasized the "Zuoshan Country".

I have to say, it's really fate.

But this is normal. After all, although the Southern Continent is big, there are only two first-rate countries, five second-rate countries, and only twenty-two third-rate countries in such a huge continent.

Very few countries.

Yan Chuang's base is in Tan Valley, in the southern continent. I heard that there will be many opportunities to encounter the "Zuoshan Kingdom" in the future.

But why did Mr. Zhong mention the "Zuoshan Kingdom" so deliberately?
Yan Chuang looked at Mr. Zhong.

"The strength of 'Zuoshan State' is far inferior to that of 'Donghou State'. As soon as the war started, 'Zuoshan State' started recruiting soldiers everywhere with great fanfare, showing an attitude of resistance to the death. It may not really want to fight to the death with 'Donghou State', but a weak country must show a tougher attitude to deter the opponent." Mr. Zhong smiled and said, "The victory or defeat of 'Zuoshan State' and 'Donghou State' is not important, but the greater the pressure on 'Zuoshan State', the more resources it will pay and the more benefits it will give, so that people are willing to work for 'Zuoshan State'."

Mr. Zhong looked at Yan Chuang and said, "To be honest, our head has already joined the Zuoshan Kingdom. With his strength, he is qualified to lead a division and can earn more "military merits". If his military merits are enough, he can even get personal guidance from the God of War or even the Lord of Zuoshan Kingdom. There are countless other resources of various levels."

At this point, Yan Chuang began to understand: "Senior Zhong wants to help Senior Lu recruit me to go to Zuoshan Country to win military merit?"

"Exactly."

Mr. Zhong nodded.

"I have just achieved the innate state not long ago, why is it me?" Yan Chuang was curious. Although he had fought in Tan Gu Realm in July, his combat power at that time was at most level four or five.

Level four or level five?

In a war between countries, they are nothing more than ants.

Yan Chuang was puzzled as to why Mr. Zhong or the leader of the Tieyi Sect, Lu Chong, would recruit him?
"'National Conflict' is time-consuming and often lasts for ten or even a hundred years. If you can't attack Huanglong in one fell swoop, you can only nibble away at it step by step and slowly wear it down until your patience reaches a certain limit—"

"Therefore."

"Only in the later stages of a national struggle will the overlord take action. In some cases, even until the country is destroyed, the overlord or the ruler may not take action. They are at a higher level, but they also cherish their lives more."

"In the middle of the national struggle, the real fire is fought. This is the stage when the War God Realm participates in the war extensively. At that time, the sixth-level God Generals are cannon fodder."

"But in the early stages of the national struggle, divine generals are the mainstream." National struggle!

It doesn't have to be a fight to the death right from the start.

Generally speaking, there is a "degree". Even if the war situation escalates, it will develop little by little instead of starting a decisive battle right away.

For example, the war between the Zuoshan Kingdom and the Donghou Kingdom.

First of all, let’s look at the ‘demands’——

The "Donghou State" wanted to capture part of the territory of the "Zuoshan State" to make up for its losses in the coastal areas, which was for the purpose of "expansion" and "stopping losses".

The "Zuoshan Country" just wants to defend its territory, even if it loses part of it, it doesn't matter, as long as it is not too excessive, the "Zuoshan Country" can tolerate it.

But the key point is how much territory the 'Donghou Kingdom' wants, and how much territory the 'Zuoshan Kingdom' is willing to lose at most.

This is the key.

There is no way we can reach an agreement through negotiation.

'Donghou State' wanted more.

The "Mountain Country" wants to give even less, and is unwilling to give too easily, as that would make it too easy for opponents to look down on it, and it would only be bullied even more severely in the future.

So, let’s fight!

But there are also techniques for fighting——

The 'Donghou Kingdom' didn't dare to send out the Overlord and the God of War at the very beginning, because that would leave no room for maneuver. Such a sudden attack would most likely provoke the 'Zuoshan Kingdom' to resist with all its might. At worst, it could just rely on one country to give up and fight hard. The result would be the same anyway, which was what the 'Donghou Kingdom' didn't want to see.

The 'Zushan Kingdom' did not dare to react too much. The 'Donghou Kingdom' mainly tried to test the enemy in the early stage. This was a psychological game between the two sides. At this stage, if the 'Zushan Kingdom' took the initiative to escalate the war, if it behaved too toughly and let the God of War and the Overlord come out to kill at the beginning, it would also force the 'Donghou Kingdom' to mobilize the whole country to attack.

"Therefore, national competition is more about the foundation."

"A big country bullying a small country is like boiling a frog in warm water. Today they take down a city, tomorrow they take down a city, little by little they push down the bottom line of the weak country, gradually nibbling away and strengthening themselves. As one grows stronger, the other shrinks. There is no need for a decisive battle, and the hegemon or the ruler of a country to take action. The outcome of the war will be decided."

Mr. Zhong looked at Yan Chuang and said, "In the early stages of the national struggle, the gods are the main force. The head of the sect and I know that City Lord Yan not only has good combat power, but also has an even more amazing ability to train soldiers."

It turned out to be the case.

Yan Chuang suddenly realized.

He was so brilliant without realizing it. When he heard about the "national struggle", he focused all his attention on his own combat capability, and ignored the shock that his training of 30,000 Tan Gu soldiers brought to others.

In fact, it’s not just the Tan Gu Army.

There is also the 'Tian Gang Big Dipper Formation' and 'Big Dipper Formation' that were recently demonstrated by the disciples of Baihua Palace, as well as the 'Tian Gang Big Dipper Formation' and 'Zhenwu Seven-Section Formation' that were quickly mastered by a group of innates in Tan Gu Realm, all of which shined brightly in the 'Beast Tide'.

Yan Chuang's ability in guiding the formation of battle arrays is even more intuitive than his teaching of martial arts and boxing, and can lead to greater improvement in a short period of time.

“We all know what the 30,000 Tan Gu soldiers were like originally, but after only one year of training by City Lord Yan, they have become 30,000 elite troops, and their skillful battle formations are amazing.” Mr. Zhong said solemnly: “The headmaster led the army before and after, and the individual strength is not weak, but they are all scattered and guerrillas, and they are not good at fighting formations, so it is difficult for them to exert their strongest combat power. If City Lord Yan is willing to help, perhaps a strong army can be established in less than a year!”

What Lu Zhong and Mr. Zhong valued was not the combat capability Yan Chuang displayed in Tan Gu Realm in early July, but Yan Chuang's ability to train a group of misfits into skilled combat formations in just one year.

The former is only the enemy of one person!

The latter can be called a match for ten thousand men!

"The headmaster has instructed that if City Lord Yan is willing to help, this seventh-tier divine weapon, the 'Green Brilliant Sword', will be a gift. He will surely receive many military merits in the future." Mr. Zhong took out a sword.

hiss!
Seventh-order divine weapon.

What a generous move.

Yan Chuang was shocked.

He remembered that at the auction held by Feiyu Trading Company in Wufu City, a seventh-level divine weapon, the 'God-killing Spear', was auctioned at a sky-high price of 72990 Yuandan.

The 'God-killing Spear' is a seventh-grade superior product.

Even if the 'Green Brilliant Sword' in Mr. Zhong's hand is only of the lower seventh grade, it would cost at least over ten thousand pills.

A seventh-rank divine weapon worth ten thousand yuan as a greeting gift?

Lu Zhong's sincerity is indeed great.

It just so happened that Yan Chuang's Tan Valley was facing internal and external troubles, and he needed a sixth-level strongman to help calm the situation and intimidate the sixth-level ruins beast in the abandoned city and Sheng Xuan who had developed rebellious intentions, so as to buy more time for Yan Chuang to grow.
