From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 169 Tonight, Madam Jiang; The Four Kingdoms are Coming to Attack Qin (Please Subscribe~)

"Doing things? Are there any unfinished business in the army?"

Jiang Qiyu took the wine and asked doubtfully.

Wu Fengdeng smiled but didn't answer. He just handed her the chopsticks and said, "Eat, eat. I'll give you a good meal today."

Then the sound of slurping began to arise, just like what happened in Guyang County during the Chinese New Year last year, when the two of them were competing with each other to drink mutton soup and eat flatbreads.

It’s just that now it’s more abundant and no longer as embarrassing as before.

Soon, the smell of rice wine and the steaming hot mutton soup made Jiang Qiyu's cheeks flushed, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her snow-white goose neck was under her hair, which made Wu Fengdeng feel a little dry in the mouth.

Somehow, he felt a little more possessive of Jiang Qiyu after returning from this trip.

Perhaps, it was because of the last incident at Furong Pavilion?

At that time, under the deception of Zhao Xunle, I had fun with Jiang Qiyu in the dream. Although it was fake, the feeling at that time is still fresh in my memory.

Wu Fengdeng took a deep breath, suppressed his inner restlessness, and poured her another bowl of wine: "Drink more..."

As the night deepened, the diners left the restaurant one after another. There were two piles of bones on their table, and at first glance they looked about the same size.

Looking at Jiang Qiyu who was burping, Wu Fengdeng secretly clicked his tongue.

This girl looks skinny, but her appetite is almost as big as his. The key point is that her stomach doesn't even feel bloated after eating. If it weren't for the bones on the table, no one would have thought that she ate nearly half of the meat and dishes on the table.

"Are you Taoists usually not full from food?"

Wu Fengdeng's words made Jiang Qiyu blush quickly. She twisted the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Eat enough, but don't waste food..."

"Hahaha, being able to eat is a blessing. There's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Let's go home and sleep!"

Back in their own courtyard, the wax candle wick flickered with orange light, and the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms as usual.

The residual smell of alcohol lingered at the tip of his nose, and Wu Fengdeng felt that Jiang Qiyu's breathing in his arms was getting faster and faster, and his body was slowly getting hotter.

"Brother Fengdeng."

"Ok?"

Looking down, her face was flushed, her breath was as fragrant as orchid, and she was staring at him with misty eyes.

Wu Fengdeng immediately lowered his head and kissed her.

In the dim room, there was a rustling sound of undressing, and white arms were wrapped around his neck.

Finally it came to fruition.

The next morning, the messy little head popped out of the cup, rubbed his arms for a while, and whispered: "Brother Fengdeng, I have to go back."

"Well, I'll give it to you."

"No, no, just have a good rest."

Jiang Qiyu did not say the second half of the sentence, "You must be tired after working so hard last night." He gently put on his white undershirt and blue shirt. The blood in his Ju Mang wood element circulated a little, and the pain was gone. Then he closed the door quietly.

"Good morning, Mrs. Jiang."

"what!"

She turned around in surprise and saw Qingdai holding a copper basin and greeting her with a smile.

"Sister Qingdai, you, you can make some medicinal food for Brother Fengdeng."

"Okay, as ordered."

……

At noon, Wu Fengdeng woke up leisurely, feeling his whole body relaxed. He lifted the quilt and looked at the bloodstains on the mattress. He smiled lightly, rolled it up and put it in the cupboard, then took out a new bed and made a new bed.

After a simple meal, he heard some unusual noises outside. Wu Fengdeng pushed the door open and saw a crowd of people gathered together two streets away, seemingly looking at something.

"That seems to be... the Li Mansion?"

After the Qin-Zhao War, Ying Zheng wanted to recruit Li Mu and Sima Shang, the two Zhenwu, into his army because he was in urgent need of manpower.

Therefore, a house was specially purchased in Xianyang to accommodate the two men and their families. That was the location of Li Mansion.

"Is there something wrong?"

Wu Fengdeng frowned and immediately rushed forward.

As an extremely special Zhenwu surrendered general, Li Mu's every move in the Qin State would be extraordinary and could not be ignored.

However, when he just walked outside the crowd, he saw Han Fei walking out of the mansion with the Black Dragon Riders, his expression slightly helpless and sad.

"What happened?" Wu Fengdeng asked.

Han Fei patted his shoulder and ordered the Black Dragon Riders to disperse the crowd before saying, "Li Mu is dead."

"died?"

He was stunned. This powerful Zhenwu master had few rivals in the Qin State. Apart from the three earthly immortals in the palace, only Wang Jian and Meng Tian outside could match him. It was not easy to kill him.

Besides, even if he was really killed, how could there be no movement?
"He committed suicide, along with Li Xing and Li Xian." Han Fei sighed deeply.

"The king had promised him a high position and generous salary, but he was still so stubborn that he committed suicide for a country that had already died. It is really a pity."

Wu Fengdeng remained silent after hearing this.

To be honest, putting aside their identities as enemies, he still had great respect for Li Mu. It would naturally be a good thing if such a loyal and powerful person could serve the Qin State.

Unfortunately, things don’t always go as planned. The demise of Zhao State may be a knot in Li Mu’s heart that he cannot untie. As a minister, he should do his duty.

This suicide was his last act of loyalty as a citizen of Zhao.

"By the way, what about Guo Kai?" Wu Fengdeng thought of this treacherous minister again.

"Cooked."

Han Fei said the two words lightly, his eyes were indifferent, without any sympathy.

"Last night, the king ordered the raid on Guo's mansion. How can the Qin Dynasty use a man who would sell out his country for his own safety?"

"Besides, he has not yet avenged Lu Buwei's rebellion. This alone is enough to make him die without a burial place."

"That's good."

Wu Fengdeng was very satisfied with this.

In fact, the key to the victory of the Qin-Zhao war was Guo Kai's instigation of discord. Otherwise, with only Li Mu and Sima Shang blocking the two routes, the Qin army might not be able to break through.

He is the first hero of this battle.

But in the final analysis, Ying Zheng was a vengeful person. Although he had promised not to settle scores later, how could one take his empty words seriously?

Guo Kai must have understood this and was half-believing and half-doubting, but what choice did he have at that time?

Even without his instigation, the Qin army would have captured Handan sooner or later. It was just a matter of time, and Guo Kai would have died anyway.

Therefore, ever since he started supporting Lu Buwei, he was destined to have a bad death.

"Brother Wu, let's not talk about them. Tomorrow we will hold a military merit meeting. You should exchange all your military merits for cultivation resources. Try to break through to the late stage as soon as possible so that you can fight against the Qi Conservation Realm." Han Fei closed his folding fan, leaned over and whispered in his ear, "War is about to break out. This will be a battle that determines the survival of the Qin Dynasty."

Wu Fengdeng said solemnly: "Has the news been confirmed?"

"Yes, the spies reported that the four kingdoms of Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi are all preparing their armies and are exchanging letters frequently. It is estimated that they will set out to attack at the end of December."

"So fast?"

Wu Fengdeng nodded and let out a long breath.

The four countries united to attack Qin, and the Yin-Yang School acted as a matchmaker. Under this circumstance, Qin's previous tactics of provocation no longer worked, and they planned to destroy Qin in one fell swoop.

Therefore, this is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous disaster. If it fails, without the protection of the Qin Dynasty, Wu Fengdeng will probably really have to flee to the ends of the earth.

With the new pressure, Wu Fengdeng became tense again.

At the military merit meeting the next day, after Wang Jian, Li Xin, Yang Duanhe were awarded titles, the fourth place was his "Da Shuchang" military merit, which directly surpassed all other main generals and made him the first person under the Marquis's merit.

It was unprecedented in the history of Qin State for a deputy general to be appointed as the Grand Commander, but even so, no one had any objection to it.

Even if Wang Ben and his generals put themselves in Wu Fengdeng's position, they would never achieve such remarkable military exploits.

Everything depends on strength, and they have to admit it.

After the military merit meeting, Wu Fengdeng exchanged all his accumulated military merit for common cultivation resources in Tuodan Realm, including but not limited to blood clotting powder that can improve the efficiency of blood condensation, magic pills that strengthen muscles and bones, etc.

Of course, in addition to these, he also used the remaining military merits to exchange for a large number of low-level training resources, such as Zhuyan, Xueduan, Qingmu and so on, and rewarded them to the ten battalions of soldiers under his command.

Taking advantage of this time, he briefly explained to Li Qun and others the training matters for the rest of the day, and then he just became a hands-off boss.

"Qingdai, prepare 100 kilograms of rice and 100 kilograms of meat. I want to practice in seclusion."

"it is good!"

Qingdai immediately bustled in and out, cleared out a room, cooked a lot of food near it, and sprinkled some ground medicine powder to prevent it from going bad or rotting.

In this way, Wu Fengdeng devoted himself to cultivation wholeheartedly.

At this time, the third layer of barrier in the Dantian already had many cracks, but it was still a long way from being completely broken open.

After he took the pill as planned, he began to practice the Red Lotus Technique and began to condense the karmic fire.

After the karma fire is condensed, let it be wrapped in qi and blood and hit the barrier of Dantian. After it is consumed, take pills and food to condense it again.

This cycle repeats itself over and over again, and gradually I begin to ignore the existence of time...

I don’t know how long it was like this, but in the silence, there was a crisp cracking sound, just like a silver bottle breaking and water spurting out, and a large amount of qi and blood began to flow into the last layer of Dantian.

Become!

Wu Fengdeng's calm mood for many days finally began to waver. He immediately cleared out the remaining food and pills in the room and began to practice the art of war.

Whoohoo!
The mighty power of the tiger stirred up waves of energy and blood, and the entire dantian absorbed it all like a bottomless pit, accepting nothing.

It was not until Wu Fengdeng began to feel a strong sense of hunger and his hands and feet began to ache from fighting that his dantian was finally full.

At this point, it is the late stage of Tuodan!
"Huh~ I've been busy for so many days and it's finally over!"

"Refine the skin and strengthen the bones, open up the meridians and expand the elixir. The mortal body must be strengthened inside and out. Only in this way can one go from practicing martial arts to cultivating immortals."

"From now on, you won't need to use the Bing Fa Jue. Just concentrate on meditation and practicing the Red Lotus Technique. Once you have condensed the elixir and stored the Qi in your Dantian, you will be able to truly fly in the air and control the wind."

Wu Fengdeng clenched his fists and said secretly, although he still wanted to continue his retreat and break through to the Qi Conservation Realm, he knew that he couldn't stay in seclusion any longer.

Because he hasn't had that much blockbuster time yet.

Immediately, he poured some cold water into the copper basin in the room and washed himself, then he found some stubble on his chin.

"It has not been taken care of for many days. It must be a rough man now."

Wu Fengdeng laughed at himself and pushed the door open with a creak. It was gray and bleak outside and even colder.

"Master Wu! You finally came out!"

Qingdai heard the noise and came over, still grinding medicine powder in a jar in her hand.

"How long have I been in seclusion?"

"It's been thirteen days. Today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month."

"It's the eighth day of the first lunar month...please take care of it for me first."

"Yes!"

After boiling water to take a bath and letting Qingdai trim his beard, Wu Fengdeng went out refreshed and arrived at the Fire Armor Army’s base.

what!what!what!
At this time, the sounds of training in the camp were getting louder and louder. The soldiers all changed into cotton shoes and cotton armor, and white air was exhaled as they swung their swords and stabbed with their guns.

"General Wu!"

After returning to their own base, Li Qun and other captains hurriedly came forward and saluted.

Wu Fengdeng looked down from the high platform and saw that the soldiers of the Tenth Battalion were practicing formations intensively. They seemed to be very skilled at it, and even the new soldiers could integrate well.

"It's not bad to have reached this level in thirteen days. It seems that you have not been perfunctory during my absence. That's good."

The only thing Wu Fengdeng was worried about during his retreat was that his subordinates would become slack in training. Without his supervision, and with the war having just ended, the soldiers were bound to become slack.

But now it seems that he was worrying too much.

"General Wu is in seclusion for cultivation, so we naturally dare not rush or be perfunctory. We always remember your teachings of 'sweat more, bleed less'!" Li Qun said from the bottom of his heart.

Having fought with Wu Fengdeng for such a long time, he could deeply understand the importance of regular military training.

The Eight Fenghou Formations, as well as a dozen other formations, have strict requirements on the body's qi and blood. Although they make them extremely tired every day, when they really reach the battlefield, they will find that these are really effective.

Otherwise, these ten battalions of soldiers would not be the unit with the least casualties but the most military achievements in the entire army.

Following a general like this, anyone who doesn't take it seriously would be cutting off his own path to retreat!
Wu Fengdeng then watched for a while before nodding with satisfaction and said, "After training today, we will have three days off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It's time to visit relatives and have some fun. We will have to go to war again soon."

"Here!"

The news of the four countries' joint attack on Qin was no longer a secret, and all the soldiers in Xianyang and even the whole country had heard of it.

Wu Fengdeng did not explain much. In fact, he knew very little about it now, so he went straight to the palace.

Under the cover of night, the fire in the hall flickered.

Wu Fengdeng and the other two gathered in front of the huge map. Han Fei used his folding fan as a handle and said, "The four countries of Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi have already decided on their attack plans. We have also gained a general idea after losing some spies."

"Yan will attack from the north, Wei and Qi will attack from Yingchuan, and Chu will attack from the south. The four countries will have a total of one million troops, and will start attacking in turn on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month."

"In terms of top combat power, a total of eight Zhenwu from the four countries participated in the battle, and the statistics of the Cangqi realm were not included."

"Eight?!" Wu Fengdeng was surprised.

Han Fei said gloomily, "That's right, and this does not include Dong Jun of the Yin-Yang School."

"At present, Daqin has two Zhenwu masters, Wang Jian and Meng Tian. Sima Shang has agreed to join Qin to fight the enemy, so there are three more. For the rest of the Zhenwu masters, we can only deploy more Cangqi Realm to deal with them. Fortunately, Daqin has a deep foundation, and with comprehensive deployment, Cangqi Realm is barely enough."

"By the way, because the Yin-Yang School is fully participating in the battle, two Taoist Zhenwu elders will also be helping out this time. They are Master Yisu and Elder Zhuang Xiaosong."
