Chapter 197: Fear of Misinformation
ang Wang!""Junior Brother Jiang!""Brother Jiang!"Jiang Wang also returned the salute one by one: "Brother Zhao, Brother Yang, all my brothers! And Brother Li, Brother Huang. Jiang Wang's studies are n...And all shall obey Cao's decree.
Chen Fu led 300,000 troops from the counties to attack Xia Country's northern prefectures of Youping, Wuxing, and Yudi.
Under his command were Tian Anping, Tian Aantae, Biwu County magistrate Yang Lu's brother Yang Jing, Mo Liancheng of Bai Zhi County's Mo clan, Qi Qiliang Hua, son of Qi Wen, Jinghai Gao clan's Gao Zhe, Zhang Weihui, official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Yan Fu of Bei County...
In addition, there are some powerful masters from various sects who have followed the army, including some Divine Incarnations. The lineup is undoubtedly formidable.
Among them, Yan Fu, the eldest son of Lord Yan, was originally in the ranks of the Zhui Feng army when they assembled outside Linzi. Later, he entered the ranks of the county soldiers and was given command of a battalion. There seemed to be an intention to vie with Tian Anping for military glory and make a name for himself.
Xie Huai'an led an army of 300,000 from the Eastern countries, attacking Xia Guo's eastern prefectures of Linwu, Hui Ming, and Fengli.

Under his command were Jiang Wang, Chong Xuan Sheng, Xie Baoshu, Bao Bobiao, and Bao Zhongqing...
Moreover, there are undoubtedly rising stars from the Eastern countries, such as Rong Guo Lin Xian and Yi Guo Lin Jie, among whom some are even divine cultivators.
On the whole, the coalition of Eastern nations had a larger number of strong fighters, but the Daci troops were individually more elite than those in the coalition. Therefore, the strength of both sides was roughly equal.
Xia Guo, if he thinks the Qi army is playing a trick of deception, he will definitely fall flat on his face. Because both lines can be considered main forces!
This time, the Qi state's army of a million men marched to conquer Xia. All who came were elite soldiers.
Cao Jie gave a single order, and immediately, it surged forward like a tidal wave, engulfing the entire Xia Kingdom.
It is worth mentioning that the pioneering general Zhao Xuan, who values freedom of movement, chose to attack Xia Kingdom's eastern region. There is a clear intention to suppress his younger brother who was known for being overweight.
At this time, throughout the entire Xia realm, long-distance communications have been completely cut off. No matter what Qi Xia does, they have lost the ability to remotely control warfare in real time.
Cao Jie, along with Yan Ping and Ruan Qiong, led nine battalions of three armies, facing off against Si Jiao and Yu Liyang at Tong'ang City.
The True Monarchs' Way involves testing and pursuing each other, with massive armies facing off from afar. The Qi army attacked the city relentlessly, but they only maintained a level of pressure throughout.
And so began a new phase of total war...
"Uh... where are we going"
Accompanying the army as they trekked through the narrow valley, Jiang Wang was somewhat at a loss.
Xie Huai'an led his troops into Linwu Prefecture four days ago. The 300,000 Allied Forces of the Eastern Regions were attacking everywhere, laying siege to cities and conquering fortresses, making it a truly heated battle. Heavy Xuanzun, the general of the Vanguard Camp, displayed great divine power. Notable warriors like Bao Bozhao and Xie Baoshu repeatedly made military achievements. Almost at the same time, eight cities in the northern part of Linwu Prefecture were engulfed in flames...
Zhong Xuan Sheng kept traveling with his people.
And he always chose remote areas, walking on secluded paths. It's astonishing how well he knows the geography of Xia!
Zhong Xuan Sheng tapped the ring on his left index finger. As mist swirled, a detailed map of the Xia Kingdom appeared in mid-air.
This thing can work in the extremely chaotic environment of the Netherworld, let alone the Summer Realm. Mountains, rivers, cities and towns, everything is clear.
>
This fat man glanced at him and said, “It’s almost there. This is Jīnglóng Valley. Head southwest out of the valley for two hundred li, and you’ll reach Xímíng City.”
Although Jiang Wang didn't know the geographical environment of Xia Country, he recognized the map. After taking two glances, he said in surprise, "We're almost at Huiming Prefecture!"
Liming Prefecture had a total of twenty cities, and Siming City was already the southernmost city in this prefecture.
Go further south, and you'll be in the territory of Hui Mingfu.
“We’re moving a little slow.” Chong Xuan glanced back at the winding line of dragon cultivators. “But for the sake of maintaining our combat strength, there’s no other way.”
The banners with their colorful embellishments were long since taken down.

The convoy, traveling non-stop for days, showed signs of exhaustion on every face.
A team of three thousand people, it's not too many, nor too few. Marching across mountains and plains with such haste is no easy feat.
These three soldiers were all from Qiushou, and they were undoubtedly the elite of the elite. Moreover, with the Liang family's connections and Chongxuan's willingness to spend money, their equipment was top-notch.
All sorts of swift talismans and qi-blood pills were used, just to keep up. In three days, they managed to weave through the controlled areas of Xia Guo, moving in a complicated pattern until finally reaching here.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Even so, Chong Xuan was still considered too slow!
"It's already as fast as it can be." Jiang Wang had recently learned a lot about military strategy and tactics, and casually said, "Unless the two of us come alone."
“You know everything that's going on, don't I” Chong Xuan muttered softly. Before Jiang Wang could hear clearly, he turned around and ordered, "Halt the entire army and change into battle gear!"
From his personal belongings, Chong Xuan Sheng retrieved several sets of blue military uniforms and distributed them one by one—his personal guard, the Shadow Guard, were also his bannermen.
There were not many people following, only about ten. Qingzhu, who had once accompanied Jiang Wang to Biwugun, was also among them.
By this point, Jiang Wang couldn't possibly misunderstand what Zhong Xuan Sheng was planning. It was just that these military uniforms were completely unfamiliar to him.
"Whose army's uniform is this"
>
Jiang Wang put it on while asking.
It's not that she couldn't use the Ruyi Fairy Robe to transform, it's just that Jiang Wang was afraid that her observation wasn't detailed enough and she missed some details. If someone found out later, it wouldn't look good.
"The Shaokang Prefecture Army." Zhong Xuan Sheng, with the help of a fourteen-year-old, managed to struggle into his armor.
This specially made Xia Guo Fu military general's armor wrapped him like an iron can.
Shaokang Prefecture was located to the southwest of Huiming Prefecture, bordering Jinan Prefecture and Huaiqing Prefecture. It also shared a small border with Sang Prefecture. It was far from the front lines of war, which gave rise to the legitimacy of supporting Linwu Prefecture—Xia Ting was doing just that, with troops from various prefectures being redeployed to the front.
“How come you get to be the general, while I’m just a lowly order” Jiang Wang grumbled.
"I'm so rich and powerful-looking," Chong Xuan chuckled, "If I told people I wasn't an official, they wouldn't believe me!"
Jiang looked speechless. He continued, “If you were going to deceive people, why not clean up the battlefield before leaving Taking off those Zhen Guo soldiers’ uniforms would have made it harder for them to be discovered, wouldn't it”
Zhong Xuan stretched out his finger: “First, after the fighting, those uniforms were covered in bloodstains, it's understandable to be wary.”
Second, speed is of the essence. Although long-distance communication methods have been cut off, flying monsters relaying messages and even powerful cultivators from Xia Kingdom personally crossing the skies are impossible to stop. News of a full-scale war has spread, and the northern border of Linwu Prefecture is now fiercely contested. We cannot afford to wait.

"Third!" He brought his two fingers together and smiled, "The first two points don't matter. The most important reason is that the Zhen Guo and Shen Wu armies are simply incapable of leaving Xiangyou Prefecture in the current situation. Disguising themselves to earn money from the city I can't imagine anyone falling for it!"
Jiang Wang looked at him with a mixture of speechless bewilderment and a hint of danger.
When he saw things were looking good, Chong Xuan said with a smile and turned to the soldiers who had finished changing. With a wave of his hand, he ordered: "Rest in place, everyone! Take an hour's nap! No need to stand guard, I'll keep watch."
These soldiers were truly elite.
During the entire changing process, there was almost no noise. When the military order arrived, they lay down immediately and quickly fell asleep.
There is a specialized sleep method in the army that can help soldiers fall asleep quickly and recover their energy. It has no negative effects whatsoever. The Qi State Academy of Arts has researched this method to its 27th version, achieving a balance between simplicity, ease of learning, and recovery effectiveness, almost to perfection.
In the long and narrow Jīnglóng Valley, three thousand people soon fell asleep. Besides the sound of their long breaths, there was only the sound of the wind.
An hour later...
At the top of the valley, Master Jiang, with his fiery red eyes focused and vigilant, retracted his gaze. He gave a reassuring thumbs-up to Chong Xuan. As for why he was on lookout duty... who made him learn the eye technique!
Then Chong Xuan gathered his army and marched out of the valley.
Jiang Wang looked around one last time, but didn't see anything noteworthy. Satisfied, he put away the disguised Huo Dou Yin and flew down.
Only now did they realize the brilliance of Chongxuan's order for the soldiers to sleep for an hour.
Apart from recovering his strength, after lying down and napping like that on the ground for a while, the already worn-out Imperial army uniform seemed even more disheveled.
Well, at first glance, in terms of spirit and energy, it seems more similar to the regiments of the Xia Kingdom...
Instead of going directly to Xi Ming City, Chong Xuan led his troops south in a roundabout way before finally turning towards Xi Ming City. This made it seem as if they were coming from Hui Ming Mansion and heading to Lin Wu Mansion to support the local army.
In the middle, they ran into a contingent of Imperial Guards sent from the Ministry of War to support the Wu Mansion!
Zhong Xuan strode boldly up to greet the general, completely decked out in military regalia. With his authentic Xia Guo Shaokang accent, he left the other man utterly bewildered.
He also proactively requested a joint effort between the two armies to assist their brothers in Linwu Prefecture. In his words, there was an intention to take over command, and he subtly displayed his personal martial prowess.
The officer leading the army from Fengli Prefecture chuckled and brushed past, saying he couldn't make the decisions and everything had to be decided by his superiors. He took his men away, avoiding the path of the "plague god" like they were afraid of it.
Destroying this army of over a thousand was certainly easy, but the aftermath was quite difficult.
Though extraordinary communication across vast distances has been severed, Xia's generals are not vegetarians.
... The Silent Strike Camp has now quietly infiltrated the heart of Xia Country, reaching the border between the provinces of Linwu and Huiming. It was as if an army were stealthily advancing. This was all due to Xuan's brilliant choice of routes and his soldiers' ability to carry out their missions flawlessly. On several occasions, they had even passed by people without being detected…
Once large-scale fighting breaks out, it will be quickly discovered by the people of Xia.
Here, a thousand-man contingent of the imperial army was annihilated. With time running out and the victorious camp's perimeter soon to be encircled, a massive sweep would commence...
So, since Chongxuan is capable of coaxing, then coax him.
From Xiangyoufu to Linwu Mansion, he went through all sorts of remote and desolate places, winding his way through secluded paths and mountains.
At this time, traveling from the border of Linwu and Huiming prefectures towards Ximing City, it was a grand procession, following only the official road, with dust billowing all the way... The flags were fluttering proudly, the people were boisterous, truly resembling the regular army of the Great Xia.
During this process, we also passed through a village.
The village elder, observing the commotion from afar, came with some young and strong men, carrying a variety of things on their shoulders and in their hands to provide refreshments for the troops.
“How is this possible” Chong Xuan Sheng Yi Zheng said solemnly, “Our Dazha army has strict discipline. We never mistreat the common people! How could I possibly take your things”
>
The village elder clutched Zhong Xuansheng's hand tightly: "General, loyal to the emperor and country, always working late into the night…"
Feeling the fat in his hand, he changed his tune and said, "That's protecting our home and country. This old man only regrets not being young anymore, unable to personally wield a sword on the battlefield. I've prepared some food and drink for you as a token of my respect. How can you refuse"
The old man was truly earnest.
Zhong Xuan sighed heavily, he bypassed the struggling mother hen and several jars of home-brewed wine from the village... taking only a basket of cakes in his hand.
“Alright, old man. I’ll take these scallion pancakes. Consider it an acceptance of your kindness. I can’t really take anything else though. I have to fight the enemy with a light pack. Taking too much would only slow me down. We'll have everything we need at the front lines – food and drink won't be a problem. Please don't worry, old man. This battle... this battle will end soon.”
The village elder summoned the young men before him and addressed General Zhēn Xuansheng: “General, you may refuse these gifts, but you must take these young men. Our Liujiazhuang is a place of scholars. When the country faces peril, every citizen has a duty to serve. You cannot let them shirk their responsibility to fight for our nation!”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“General, I’m going with you to kill those Qi dogs!” A simple and sturdy young man pushed forward: “I am strong! I do all the slaughtering in our village.”
As he spoke, he gestured with his hand: “Those so-called fierce dogs and pigs, I’ll take them out one by one!”
Zhong Xuan looked at these people with complex eyes, and finally said to the old village head of Liu Jiazhuang: "War is not a child's play. The soldiers we send to the battlefield are all trained for a long time. How to form an array, how to wield a sword, can't be achieved overnight, it's not just about picking up a hoe and participating..."
"General!" the old village head squinted and said, "Everyone says that strength lies in numbers! These young men, each one strong and capable, surely they will be of use Even if you send them to block arrows, as long as they help you kill all those dogs, it's a success!"
The old man stood in the way, radiating an air of a mountain king. He didn't allow anyone to pass without bringing along a few soldiers.
>Zhong Xuan Sheng had no choice but to beckon to the most enthusiastic young man, saying: “That’s right. Since I rarely come to Lin Wu Mansion and am unfamiliar with the roads here, let me bring someone from your village as a guide. This way you contribute both manpower and supplies, and the rest is left to us brothers who eat this bowl of rice with our swords! What do you say”
The village head saw his firm tone and just mumbled a few words, “Is one enough” “There are many roads on Linwu Mountain!”
Ultimately, they were still let go...
I'm afraid I might delay military intelligence.
"What's your name" Chong Xuan Sheng asked the young man from Liu Family Village on their way to Ximing City.
This is a lively and outgoing person.
"Liu Dayong!" he answered proudly.
He was also unsure if it was the pride of serving his country, or the pride of bearing the name Liu Dayong.
Zheng Xuan just said: "Alright, I'll find a veteran to take you around. Don't wander off anywhere, listen to him for everything."
He shouted, "Qingzhuan!"
In the uniform of a palace guard, Ying Weiqing ran over like an ordinary soldier, enthusiastically hooking his shoulders with Liu Dayong and talking to him in the local Shaokang dialect as they walked...
