Chapter 260: The Foundation of the Dynasty
In the room, Yu Lianzhou had a helpless expression on his face.

"I don't know what Yu Wenzhi is thinking."

"Now that my Wudang disciples are stationed in Luoyang to support us, he has no way of breaking through. But he still persists. Is this the third time?"

"If this continues, I'm afraid the foundation of his Yuwen clan will be destroyed."

Li Shimin also found this somewhat unbelievable.

"Yes, does Yu Wenzhi want this Luoyang City so much?"

There is no doubt that Luoyang City has extremely high strategic value, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as a place that is fought over by military strategists.

But sieges are something that consumes a lot of one's own military strength.

No matter how fast the Yuwen clan developed, its rise was too short and it could not withstand such high-intensity consumption.

In Li Shimin's view, this behavior was completely unstrategic.

Gu Changfeng next to him chuckled and spoke.

"You two may not know yet, but Yuyan brought me two pieces of news when she returned to Wudang this time."

"The first point is about the influx of refugees from the border of the Song Dynasty."

"The second point is about the Yuwen clan. The man behind the Yuwen clan is none other than Zhu Wusi, the Iron-hearted Divine Marquis of the Ming Dynasty."

"And Zhu Wusi has already broken through to the land immortal realm!"

what?
When these words were spoken, both people in the room were extremely shocked.

This news is extremely explosive!
Li Shimin's expression suddenly changed and he spoke.

"Zhu Wusi had originally reached the peak of the Heaven-Man Unity Realm, and had been stuck in that realm for many years, always seeking a way to break through."

"If a strong person at the state of unity of heaven and man wants to break through to the land immortal realm, the power of luck is a must."

"Now it seems that perhaps the severing of the dragon vein of the Sui Dynasty royal family has a lot to do with Zhu Wusi and Yu Wenzhi."

"After all, when Yang Guang was still alive, the person most likely to know the location of the Great Sui Dragon Vein was Yu Wenzhi, the leader of the Great Sui Emperor's imperial guards."

"No wonder the Yuwen clan is so eager to capture Luoyang. Perhaps it is because Zhu Wusi wants to use Luoyang to quickly consolidate the foundation of the dynasty, right?"

Gu Changfeng was a little curious.

"The foundation of the dynasty? Brother Li, can you tell me in detail?"

Gu Changfeng indeed knew very little about the fortune of the dynasty.

However, he believed that Li Shimin must know a lot. After all, he was a rebel and must be very familiar with these things.

Yu Lianzhou on the side also pricked up his ears.

Li Shimin smiled and spoke without hiding his plan from the two of them.

"As we all know, the power of the dynasty's destiny is the foundation of the dynasty's dominance over the world."

"And the power of this dynasty's destiny comes from the dragon vein of the dynasty."

"When someone wants to establish an empire, the first step is to build the capital of the empire and breed the golden dragon of luck."

"The location of Kyoto cannot be chosen randomly. It must be connected with the luck of the person who founded the dynasty. Only by building Kyoto can we lay the foundation for the dynasty."

"As for the land of dragon veins, it is often after the establishment of the dynasty that part of the land of the dynasty's fortune is secretly hidden in it, forming a dragon vein, which is more like a royal treasure house."

Hearing this, Yu Lianzhou seemed to understand something.

"Does the clan leader mean that Zhu Wusi wants to establish a dynasty? And wants to choose Luoyang City as the capital of the dynasty?"

"But what I don't understand is, why Luoyang? Can't Daxing City be used?"

An idea suddenly occurred to Gu Changfeng.

Combined with what Li Shimin had just said, he instantly had a guess that what Zhu Wusi absorbed to break through the Earthly Immortal realm was the dragon vein of the Sui Dynasty royal family.

"In my opinion, it's not that Zhu Wusi doesn't want to choose Daxing City, but he wants to quickly establish the foundation of the dynasty, so he can only choose Luoyang!"

"Brother Li, is what I said correct?"

Li Shimin nodded in approval, "Brother Gu's comprehension is truly unmatched. He was able to deduce so much information from just a few words. No wonder he has such accomplishments at such a young age."

Gu Changfeng waved his hand, "Brother Li, you are too kind."

"If you ask me, Brother Li is no worse. You are not much older than me, but you have already gained the reputation of being invincible. We are just gifted in different areas."

The two of them flattered each other and the atmosphere was harmonious, which made Yu Lianzhou next to them a little anxious.

"Hey! I don't understand! Why don't you explain it to me!"

Li Shimin smiled silently and spoke.

“It’s not that complicated.”

"The method I just mentioned to establish the foundation of the dynasty is the orthodox method, but it is also the most time-consuming and labor-intensive method."

"If you want to connect with the destiny of Kyoto, you must gain the approval of the majority of the people in Kyoto. This is what we often call 'the destiny of heaven'."

“But where there is orthodoxy, there are shortcuts.”

“If Zhu Wusi is promoted to Earthly Immortal by absorbing the power of luck from the dragon vein of the Great Sui Dynasty, then the power of luck from the Great Sui Dynasty will exist in his body.”

"Luoyang City was once the capital of the Sui Dynasty. It would be very easy for Zhu Wusi to establish a connection with Luoyang City. He only needs to occupy this place."

"Of course, there are some hidden dangers in doing this. It may make the golden dragon of luck that is being bred unstable, or even backfire."

"But there is no doubt that doing so is the fastest way to increase one's own strength."

At this point, Yu Lianzhou finally understood everything.

Zhu Wusi is already a powerful earthly immortal. If he ascends to the throne and gains the power of the dynasty's destiny, his strength in his own Kyoto will probably become extremely terrifying.

This is the most fundamental reason why the Yuwen clan is so persistent and wants to capture Luoyang regardless of the consequences! "Well, since we have come to this opportunity, let's go to the city wall and see how the Yuwen clan will attack the city this time."

"I also want to know whether Zhu Wusi will tear up the so-called imperial ban!"

Gu Changfeng went out first and headed towards the city wall.

The three men did not alarm others and went straight to the highest tower on the east wall.

Looking down from here.

On the plain a hundred miles away from the east wall of Luoyang City, densely packed troops formed a square formation, stretching for an unknown distance with no end in sight. A rough estimate is that there are at least 300,000 troops!
Li Shimin's expression became a little solemn when he saw this.

"It seems that what Brother Gu and I thought is correct. Three hundred thousand people is the entire army of the Yuwen clan. It can be said that they have come out in full force!"

Gu Changfeng looked down intently, trying to find Zhu Wusi's presence.

But the opponent was too far away, far beyond the range of forty miles of spiritual consciousness, and could not be seen at all.

At the same time, he was also somewhat relieved.

'Fortunately, I came in person this time.'

"If Zhu Wusi really hides inside and launches an attack on Luoyang City, Li Shimin and the second brother will be completely unable to resist."

At this time, the defenders on the city walls of Luoyang were also on high alert, with serious expressions on their faces.

Gu Changfeng also saw many familiar faces among them, all of whom were disciples of the Wudang Sect.

After going through hardships, the immaturity on these disciples' faces faded and they became more calm and steady.

Even the most flamboyant Song Qingshu looked a bit iron-blooded.

Gu Changfeng couldn't help but nodded.

'Not bad.'

"Sure enough, if jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object."

"A cultivator cannot always stay in the mountains and live a comfortable life. He still needs to go through the baptism of blood and fire."

'Otherwise, without a tenacious character, how can one survive the tribulations on the road to immortality?'

at this time.

woo~~~~~~
The low and long horn sounded again.

The army on the plain began to slowly approach the walls of Luoyang City.

As they approached, Gu Changfeng also saw a lot of large and heavy siege equipment.

The Yuwen clan's army stopped several miles away from the city wall and began throwing stones at it.

Of course, the soldiers on the city wall also drew their bows and arrows, and some also fought back with catapults.

However, the two sides' methods of resistance were completely different.

The Yuwen clan's army could only deal with the flying boulders and arrows by having soldiers hold up shields to form a steel wall, with some martial arts masters interspersed in between.

But how many of these huge stone arrows can a martial arts expert block?
More of them crashed into the army formation, causing many soldiers to spit blood and fall to the ground.

On the other hand, here in Luoyang City.

However, there were many Wudang disciples performing various kinds of magic.

In a moment, earth walls and giant trees rose from the ground, effectively blocking the opponent's attack.

As for the attacks that slipped through, they were easily resolved by the soldiers on the city wall.

Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh towards Gu Changfeng.

"Brother Gu, these disciples of Wudang Sect really helped me a lot. They weakened the enemy's siege attack by a large margin. Otherwise, we would not have been able to defend so easily."

"Usually, they would only get one mile closer to the city wall before retreating. I don't know what tactics they will use this time."

At the same time, behind the Yuwen clan’s army.

Zhu Wusi sat in the luxurious carriage and looked far away in the direction of the Luoyang city wall.

Yu Wenzhi next to him spoke quickly.

"Shen Hou, those are the various mysterious methods of the Wudang disciples that I mentioned."

"They can actually summon earth walls out of thin air and make giant trees sprout and grow in the blink of an eye. Some of them can even summon fireballs. It's really hard to guard against them."

"If it weren't for these people, Luoyang City would never have been able to hold out for so long!"

Zhu Wusi narrowed his eyes and spoke lightly.

"These methods should be the immortal way that Gu Changfeng is rumored to have created, right? Humph! So fancy!"

"I have heard that this immortal way can lead to immortality, but I really don't understand what it means!"

"As warriors, we rely on absolute strength, not these fancy tricks."

"Since the army can't break through, then you should take action. We must break Luoyang City today!"

"I'll take care of you, so don't worry."

"Even if Gu Changfeng comes in person, I can crush him to death!"

After hearing this, Yu Wenzhi nodded immediately and accepted the order.

"As ordered!"

After saying this, Yu Wenzhi stood up and walked outside the carriage. The true energy in his body surged out, and he stepped into the void step by step, upwards, as if there were invisible stairs in the air.

During this process, Yu Wenzhi's aura began to rise steadily!
