Chapter 178 Inheritance
Chapter 178 Inheritance
Here, high up in the dense forest, the Eight Immortals, the Five Yakshas and the Emperor are together.
"In this battle, at least 400,000 of my Guili Qianyan troops died." The Emperor said softly, "But Xumi's losses were more serious than ours, so 600,000 is not an exaggeration."
"Four hundred thousand here, six hundred thousand there, add up to one million." Yi Xiao Daotian couldn't help but take a breath, "One million! Since we returned to China, the Thousand Rock Army has only been over three million. All of a sudden, one third of the Thousand Rock Army is buried here."
In the face of war, human life is worthless.
Liu Yun suggested: "Emperor, now that the humans of Xumi have been repelled and you have driven away the Red King, I believe that in the future, the people of Xumi will not dare to invade Wu Yu Chou Lin again. Why not send the remaining Qianyan Army away and let them reunite with their families?"
"No, the Red King was just chased away, not killed. Considering that he dares to attack four times a year, he will probably make a comeback soon." Xueyue Zhuyang said.
"No." Yi Xiao Daotian shook his head. "I once discussed the topic of war with Yongle. He said that war is fought with intelligence, logistics, and morale. Sufficient intelligence can deal a fatal blow to the enemy; sufficient logistics can make the soldiers worry-free; strong morale can lead to victory in every battle.
Right now, Xumi has fought four battles with us, and the death toll is almost one million. According to Shen Bujue's news, Xumi has only a little over one million soldiers, far less than our Guili. Now that almost one million have died, there are only tens of thousands left, which is nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, in these four battles, Xumi can be said to have been defeated repeatedly. This matter cannot be covered up by the three gods no matter what method they use.
If I were a Sumerian, and saw my army fail four times in a row and almost all of them were killed, I would definitely not join the army. "
The Emperor nodded and said, "Yixiao's words make sense. How about this? We will mobilize 100,000 Thousand Rock Soldiers from the Layered Rock Abyss and Guili, and send them into the Wuyu Forest to rebuild the city walls and station troops. We will let the surviving Thousand Rock Soldiers go home, rest for a month or two, and then gather them again."
The immortals and the five Yakshas nodded and had no objection to this.
Fushe said, "Emperor, please let the five of us stay here as well. We don't have much to do when we return to Guili."
The Emperor thought about it and said, "Okay."
After finishing the discussion, the fairies, demons, gods and yakshas were about to go back, but they heard a shout coming from the foot of the mountain.
"Mortal, Huang Yu, requests to see the Emperor!"
"Huang Yu, who is this?" Li Shui asked curiously.
Fushe introduced him: "He is a troublemaker who always likes to fight. He has some skills and is kept by Chong Feiyu."
When there was no war, he often practiced sparring with Huang Yu, who was eager to fight. After a few exchanges, the two sides developed a friendship.
"I remember this human." The Emperor said, then raised his hand and brought up the topaz from the bottom of the mountain.
The immortals looked over and saw Huang Yu holding a corpse that was almost broken into pieces and kneeling on the ground: "Please Emperor, use your divine power to revive the head coach of the Qianyan Army, my teacher!"
Praying to the immortals was the only solution Huang Yu could think of.
Liu Yun subconsciously looked at Yaojun. Among the Eight Immortals, he could be considered the most proficient in medicine.
Yao Jun also stood up and came to the damaged body. After checking it, he looked at the eyes that were wide open and unwilling to close, and sighed: "Huang Yu, if this person's body was intact, he could be resurrected, but this body is already full of holes, and the head has been cut off, there is no way to revive him."
Huang Yu was shocked and looked at Yao Jun beside him, then looked at Yao Jun, and then looked at the Emperor and other immortals in the distance.
The Emperor stood up and said, "Huang Yu, Yao Jun is an immortal who is proficient in medicine. If he can't do anything, then we don't have any solution either. You should send him to the Hall of Rebirth and bury him properly."
The founder of Wangsheng Hall was not Zhu Yuncheng, but a man named Hu. Seventeen years ago, this man saw the corpse of the demon being burned by a raging fire, which brought life back to the area from Shimen to Dihuazhou. He then began to devote himself to cremating the dead humans and established Wangsheng Hall based on this concept. Later, after Zhu Yuncheng discovered this, he also helped to vigorously promote cremation, especially after the war, when the dead soldiers were generally cremated and their ashes were sent back home.
Huang Yu couldn't stop her tears from falling. What could she do no matter how unwilling she was after the Emperor spoke like this?
He picked up Chong Feiyu's body and was about to leave when suddenly a blood-stained cloth bag fell from the body.
"What is this?" Huang Yu hurriedly bent down, picked up the cloth bag, put Chong Feiyu's body beside him, and opened the cloth bag.
What caught her eye was a booklet. When she opened it, she saw it was filled with exquisite calligraphy. As Huang Yu looked at it, tears couldn't stop falling.
"What the Human King said is that the best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities. I think this is inappropriate. In today's war between demons, the strong will win and the weak will perish. Humans in different regions each have their own beliefs in demons. Planning is just a side job, and alliance is impossible. The only best option is to attack their troops."
"Although the thirty-six strategies of the Human King are all ingenious, they can only be used once. After one use, the enemy will definitely have some defenses. So you only need to know one or two. When using troops, you should prioritize speed, like thunder."
This booklet is actually Chong Feiyu's summary of the war over the years.
On the back of this booklet, there is also Chong Feiyu's opinion on topaz.
"Jade Huang, his talent far exceeds mine, but his character is rebellious. If he can be taught well, his achievements will far exceed mine and my father's."
Huang Yu put the booklet against his chest and said, "Teacher, don't worry. I will definitely carry forward your ideas."
He didn't notice that after he said this, Chong Feiyu's eyes, which had been unable to close for a long time, slowly closed.
If we remove the factor of Zhu Yuncheng, the time traveler, Chong Feiyu would definitely be a famous general in Guili, but unfortunately he had limited talent. With his demise, his student Huang Yu, who was far more talented than him, began to rise.
And he will be the most famous Kaiyang Star in the Demon War and even in the entire Guili history.
Carrying Zhong Feiyu's body back to the camp below, Huang Yu personally lit the fire and put his teacher's body in it.
At this time, the generals of the Qianyan Army came to Huang Yu and mourned for the deceased chief coach.
Not far away, there were many similar fires burning, and the fuel was the corpses of the Qianyan Army’s compatriots.
Some people cried bitterly, some were numb, and some were in despair.
And Huang Yu, after collecting Chong Feiyu's ashes, summoned all the remaining generals and officers: "I want to send troops to occupy Xiangzui Slope!"
