Chapter 791 – Time to Reel in the Net

Let us bring the time back to an hour ago.

At basically the same time as when the battle outside of Wenshan City started, Shi Wanshui's middle troops moved too.

Looking at the entire Yunnan Battlefield, the middle troops were the most low-profile. They had been camping at the east of Tengyue Prefecture since the start. They pushed in slowly with defense and monitoring as their goal; sieging was their second priority.

As the battle at Wenshan City exploded, it was time for the middle troops to show their strength.

That day, the two War Fighting Legions of the middle troops changed their careful style and started to charge around within Tengyue Prefecture, and their sword was directly aimed at Tengchong City in the middle.

The various cities in Tengyue Prefecture had prepared for this, and they had already received the order from the command center to defend in the city and try to drag the battle on. Their goal was just to coordinate with the battle in Wenshan City.

The problem laid in the fact that the middle troops were not the only ones attacking Tengyue Prefecture.

...

Tengyue Prefecture, Southwest Mountains.

Similarly the morning of the 1st month, 6th day, the mountains and canyons were misty and cold.

Similar to the 100 thousand mountains near Lianzhou Basin, there were many mountain barbarian tribes living in the Southwest Mountains; they were scattered around the peaks and canyons.

The mountain barbarians relied on hunting to live and occasionally went to the foot of the mountains. At such times, they would head to the villages and towns to trade medicine and animals for daily necessities.

Apart from that, they had truly little interaction with the people at the foot of the mountains.

It was not that the players near the mountains did not want to recruit these tribes. After all, during the 1st year of Gaia, news of Shanhai City's mountain barbarian Infantry Divisions had already spread across the world and gained the envy of many.

However, the appearance of Chiyou crushed all their dreams.

During the period of Chiyou's descent on the wilderness, the mountain barbarians either decided to take the slow journey to Chiyou City or willing waited and prepared for the journey.

Hence, the Lords' recruitment attempts naturally all failed. Occasionally, there would be Lords who managed to tempt one to two small tribes, but such a number was hardly enough to build a huge army.

Afterward, Ouyang Shuo led his army to crush Chiyou's army and also cut off his head. In the end, he ascended to the position of Barbarian King, and the situation changed once more.

Ouyang Shuo, who treated the mountain barbarians highly, definitely would not forget about the other mountain barbarian tribes in other mountains. After he calmed down the mountain barbarians in Chiyou City, the first thing he did was to send out representatives to the other mountains.

First, he wanted to tell them that the new mountain Barbarian King had been born; he wanted to ask for their loyalty. Secondly, he wanted to keep in contact with them and ask them to prepare for further Shanhai City invasions.

Before the Battle of Yunnan started, Ouyang Shuo had headed to Chiyou City for the purpose of finding the elder Mu Yao. He had asked the elder to visit the Yunnan Mountains to locate and contact the mountain barbarian tribes.

Reality proved that the effects were extremely great.

With the advertisement of the mountain barbarian contact officer and the huge change in Wuzhou, the various mountain barbarian tribes started to recognize this new Barbarian King.

When Baiqi led the left troops to attack Mengding Prefecture, they had started to secretly transport grain and weapons into the mountains to give it to the tribes for free.

Along with the resources was also a regiment of army teaching personnel.

There was grain, equipment, and officers. Along with the name of Barbarian King, every tribe was obviously tempted.

Just like that, while Baiqi attacked Mengding Prefecture, without the Yunnan City-State knowing anything, the mountain barbarian tribes started to gather together.

A day ago, many well-equipped mountain barbarian warriors had gathered in each of the mountain strongholds. They were like a little stream, slowly gathering and forming a massive river.

These warriors were not only equipped with the sharpest weapons and the toughest armor, but they had even undergone basic military training and were not the backward hunters from before.

There was a difference of night and day between the two.

At 10 AM, a total of 50 thousand mountain barbarian warriors had gathered up and attacked Mengyue Prefecture along with the middle troops.

With such an east-west pincer attack, Tengyue Prefecture was quickly thrown into a sea of flames.

Only then did Qin Feng and the others feel fear and panic, which ended up with Wuqi needing to add troops. However, there was one problem. Qin Feng and the others probably did not know till now what kind of mountain barbarian force was attacking Tengyue Prefecture.

In their eyes, it was just a group of assorted hunting troops.

But in any war, missing out the small details could cause you to lose the entire thing. The entire Battle of Yunnan was closely connected and linked with one another.

The moment Yunnan City-State decided not to assist and save Tengyue Prefecture, the City-State and the Yanhuang Alliance had lost their last fighting chance.


Wenshan City, Dragon Legion Corps camp fortress.

Another half an hour had passed since Wuqi increased the number of troops and the intensity of the attack. Reality proved that as long as they were vicious enough and were willing to make sacrifices, the siege would work.

Under the charge of Wuqi, the siege became extremely smooth, and they took down the middle circle of the camp fortress in just half an hour. Only the solitary inner fortress was left.

Victory was in their sights.

On the Wenshan City wall, Di Chen and the others who had received the news were all really excited.

"If we knew that the result would be so good, I would have ordered them to act a lot earlier." Di Chen causally told the other Lords.

Chun Shenjun smiled, "The Dragon Legion Corps is not all that impressive!"

"That's right, the wilderness made Baiqi out to be such an amazing general, but he is still being forced back by us." The one who agreed with Chun Shenjun was a Lord from Yunnan City-State; this fellow could be considered Chun Shenjun's ' right-hand man.'

Hearing someone agree with his words, Chun Shenjun grew more excited and started to mock Shanhai City.

With that, there were more people who agreed with him, mostly the Lords of the City-State. Amongst which, there were many who had lost their territories. These people were the saddest of the bunch as they had lost everything and were now at the mercy of others.

Chun Shenjun, this giant of the Yanhuang Alliance, was undoubtedly one of the people they could latch onto. When they saw that there was a chance to suck up to him, all of them were obviously willing to do so.

The more they spoke, the more preposterous their words sounded.

According to their words, the Dragon Legion led by Baiqi was totally useless. Even Shanhai City was turned into a paper tiger that was going to be taken down at any moment.

The more they spoke, the dumber it all sounded.

When Zhan Lang saw the situation, he frowned. As a military person, Zhan Lang could not stand such antics.

'We have not won the war yet, so what are all of you doing?'

Chun Shenjun might have made it sound extremely easy but the Alliance Army and the Yanhuang Alliance Army had paid 50 thousand men to break through the two defense lines.

Only Chun Shenjun would say that the Dragon Legion Corps was nothing special.

However, their morale was currently high, so Zhan Lang held himself back from saying anything discouraging. When Chun Shenjun saw that, he gave Zhan Lang an eye to say that he understood what was going on.

Naturally, Chun Shenjun was not such a superficial person, and he would not really believe the words these Lords were saying. Even his own words were just to liven up the atmosphere.

His real goal was to use this chance to test the loyalty of the Lords in the Yunnan City-State to make it easier for them to split it up in the future.

"You really are impatient." Xiong Ba shook his head.

Maybe Chun Shenjun felt he had a psychological advantage because Shanhai City did not strike Pill Sun City.

Although they were allies, who knows what Chun Shenjun thought about Shanhai Alliance's act on their homes. He definitely was not worried, and he was maybe even gloating.

The moment he thought back to Yizhou Island that was under attacked, Xiong Ba's mood turned sour once more.

Even so, as the war was progressing smoothly, the atmosphere was still extremely lively.

Amongst them, the only sad ones were the two to three Lords that were being attacked by the Shanhai City Army. Countless emergency letters were sent over, making them feel really depressed.

However, at the current moment, no one cared about their life or death.

They were chess pieces, and who would hesitate when one was supposed to abandon a chess piece? When a chess master played chess, would he bother to consider how the chess piece felt?

To win the entire game, abandoning pieces, trading, and similar actions were all expected.

Just as Di Chen and the others were looking forward to what was to come, Shanhai City started to reel in its net.

Noon, the sun hung high in the air.

On the west mountain path of Wenshan City, the sounds of horse hooves could suddenly be heard. Huo Qubing led the 1st and 2nd legions of the Guards Legion Corps, filled with the desire for revenge, and charged at Wenshan City.

In the north, Er'Lai led the City Protection Legion and drew close to Wenshan City.

On the south, the Feng Yi legion suddenly exited the camp fortress and started to move toward Wenshan City.

The three groups of troops advanced from three directions, working with the Dragon Legion Corps that was east of the city to surround Wenshan City.

Facing enemies on all four sides.

The City Protection Legion and the two War Fighting Legions could appear at this moment because of Yuanyang City. The Lord of Yuanyang City, Little Six, was the chess piece they had buried in Yunnan City-State; this was the black chess piece that Baiqi had mentioned.

The moment the black chess piece was used, the world would be shocked.

Just late last night, right after the Alliance Army and the Yanhuang Alliance Army teleported to Wenshan City, the Guards Legion Corps, and the City Protection Legion had teleported to Yuanyang City and disappeared into the darkness.

The three legions used a morning to go through small paths to surround Wenshan City.
