Starting from crossing the Fengshen

Chapter 293 The background of Dongyi

Surveyor.

inner world.

Command room.

There was a cloth map hanging on the wall, and Yin Qi and others were listening to Fengyun Sect describe the current battle situation.

There are nine Dongyi branches, distributed in the Taiyuan Mountains.

This Taiyuan Mountain Region is mainly mountainous and covered with virgin forests. It has a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles and is bounded by the sea to the east. It is very vast.

Dongyi is a barbarian witch, that is, the descendant of Jiuli.

At that time, Chiyou was defeated and Jiuli was destroyed. The remaining tribes either surrendered to the Yellow Emperor and reintegrated into the human race, or traveled far away to the four wildernesses, and gradually evolved into the Dongyi in the east, the Baiyue in the south, the Qiang in the west, the Quanrong, and the north. Guifang and other tribes.

Dongyi inherited from Jiuli and has always had the idea of ​​revenge.

They want to leave the Taiyuan Mountains, settle in the ancestral land of the human race, and compete for the position of human emperor.

Therefore, all the barbarians were restless and often invaded the eastern countries.

Among them, Chi Yi and Feng Yi were the most violent and their methods were the most cruel. They had mortal enemies with many vassal states in the east.

This war starts from last year.

Generally speaking, every year after winter, Chiyi would send troops to invade various countries and plunder winter supplies.

Last year was no exception.

Originally, Cao Guo also believed that the Chiyi plundering would retreat after a period of time, so he did not pay too much attention to it. He just routinely strengthened the city defenses, strengthened the walls and cleared the fields to minimize losses.

In fact, this is not only the case with Cao State, but also with the vassal states surrounding the Taiyuan Mountain Region.

There is really no good way for everyone to deal with Chi Yi.

They are good at fighting in the mountains. They come and go like the wind. If they can win, they will fight. If they can't, they will return to the mountains and forests.

If we pursue them, they might be wiped out.

Because of this, all countries can only passively defend themselves and just pray that Chiyi will not attack them.

But no one expected that Chi Yi would invade on a large scale this time. Unprepared, Cao Guo lost more than ten cities in a row.

If it weren't for Qingzhou Hou's timely rescue, I am afraid that Cao State would have been destroyed long ago.

The Qingzhou army and the Chiyi army fought fiercely for several times, and were forced to retreat step by step, suffering heavy losses.

In desperation, they could only send another 300,000 troops.

Calculated, Qingzhou has sent nearly one million troops, almost overwhelming the country to fight, because the Marquis of Qingzhou knew that if the Cao Kingdom was destroyed, Qingzhou would face Chiyi's troops.

Everyone knows this.

Fengyun Sect pointed at the map and said solemnly: "Now Cao State has lost three thousand miles of land. From here to here, the Red Yi army is divided into nine groups, and the offensive is still fierce. I, Qingzhou, and Cao State have joined forces to block these six groups of Red Yi armies. Suiguo, Jiangguo, and Shanguo each blocked the Red Yi army."

Having said this, he paused and continued: "Previously, Qingzhou invested another 300,000 troops, and finally stabilized the battle line. However, according to the news from the scouts, Chiyi is still adding troops to the front line. There is a large possibility that The deputy annexes the passing posture.

This is also what makes us confused.

Although all the Dongyi tribes were dishonest, in the past they only dared to fight against the autumn wind.

If you really want to leave the Taiyuan Mountain Domain, that is impossible.

But Chi Yi did it.

Therefore, we suspect that there may be some unknown changes within Chiyi. "

The tribes of Dongyi are very strong and can oppress the vassal states in the east at will.

But if they really want to conquer the Taiyuan Mountains, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the Great Shang Dynasty.

When the time comes, the Great Shang Emperor will send troops and gather the eastern vassal states to form a coalition. Not to mention crippling them, they can at least severely injure the various tribes of Dongyi.

Not being able to leave the Taiyuan Mountains is the bottom line of the Great Shang Dynasty, and it is impossible for the Dongyi tribes not to know this.

Yin Qi nodded slowly and agreed with Fengyun Sect's guess.

He said: "Tell me about the situation of Dongyi and Chiyi. How many troops are there and who are the strong ones?"

Fengyun Sect said: "There are nine tribes in Dongyi, which are nominally subordinate to the Temple, but in fact, unless there is a major matter of life and death, the Temple will not easily interfere with the development of each tribe.

The high priest of the temple is also the strongest person in Dongyi. It is said that he is a celestial witch in the heavenly realm, and there are as many powerful people in him.

However, they practice seclusion all year round and do not participate in ordinary wars.

All the nine tribes of Dongyi have ancestral halls.

The high priest of the Chiyi Ancestral Palace is named Zhu You, and he is the pinnacle earth witch of the Earth Fairy Realm. There are also three major sacrifices, all of which are earth witches.

They are all soldiers, and their strength is not fixed. So far, more than 1.5 million have been invested. "

"Four Earth Witches!"

Yin Qi was shocked.

These are all fairyland.

The high priest of the temple is actually a celestial witch in the heavenly realm. Dongyi cannot underestimate him.

Fengyun Sect nodded and said: "Well, there is no need to worry, Your Highness. Generally speaking, in ordinary wars, the unspoken rules of all parties are that Earth Immortals and above are not allowed to interfere.

In fact, we would rather the priests take action, so we don't have to abide by this rule.

By then, I, Qingzhou, will be able to destroy them without the imperial court taking action! "

At the end, Fengyun Sect's voice was filled with pride and helplessness.

Yin Qi glanced at Fengyun Sect unexpectedly and nodded thoughtfully.

The Qingzhou Marquis began with Emperor Yu and has been passed down for thousands of years. In addition, there is no shackles of "the royal family is not allowed to practice immortality", so there must be strong people above the immortal realm in their clan.

Maybe we can't destroy Dongyi, but destroying Chiyi is not a big problem.

Of course, it is also impossible for Dashang to remain firmly established without strong men.

Just like Wen Zhong.

Of course, this is only apparent.

Yin Qi believed that there must be many powerful people in the fairyland secretly.

It may be enshrined by the royal family, or it may be the royal family.

The royal family was not allowed to cultivate immortality, but before Shang Tang became the Human Emperor, the Yin family was just a prince and there was no such restriction.

It's impossible to kill all the people who cultivate immortality just because the Yin family became the royal family.

Yin Qi lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a while, then said: "Master Marquis, if this army of 500,000 people is given to you to command, will you have the confidence to repel the Chi Yi army?"

Fengyun Zong was suddenly startled. He looked into his eyes and quickly thought about the meaning of this sentence.

Is it a temptation or a test?

Although Yin Qi rebelled and served as emperor, he was also familiar with military literature, but he was not familiar with Chiyi and could easily suffer losses if he commanded hastily, which would affect his prestige;

Secondly, he positioned himself as a human emperor, not a general who charged into battle.

Thirdly, he also wanted to make good friends with Qingzhou Hou.

Giving up the command of an army of 500,000 people, what kind of trust is this, who wouldn't be moved?

Because of this, he wanted to appoint Qingzhou Marquis as commander-in-chief.

The Marquis of Qingzhou was able to withstand the fierce attack of Chi Yi and at the same time coordinate the armies of various vassal states. He must be a qualified commander.

Of course, letting Fengyun Sect be the commander-in-chief does not mean that he is a wooden person.

He will monitor the situation at all times.

If something goes wrong, he will immediately take back command.

Trust does not mean unconditional indulgence.

Looking at Yin Qi's sincere eyes, Fengyun Sect felt inexplicably moved and excited at the same time.

He took a deep breath, bowed and said, "Yes!"

Although it is only one word, it is sonorous and powerful.

"it is good!"

Yin Qi said loudly: "In that case, I will leave my army of 500,000 to you. Zhang Shaokang and the others will also listen to your command. Just worry about fighting and leave all logistics matters to me."

"Thank you, Your Highness, I will live up to your expectations!"

Fengyun Sect promised in a deep voice.

……

At this time, four sky patrol ships also arrived at Cao's front line.
