dignation.Unfair! Why!And Jiang Wang clearly sensed the pressure from the water abruptly decreasing.The sword light flashed, and he plunged into the water with a whole body of swordsmanship.The Sword...The entire Yang Guo royal bloodline was exterminated by Yang Jiande, who practiced the Heartless Blood Demon Scripture.

In the past, there were still some cover-ups. The death of the Yang clan was largely attributed to illness and passing away.

After openly killing Crown Prince Yang Xuanji in the main hall, Yang Jiande could no longer find a reason. He directly summoned his relatives to the palace and killed them all at once.

The Blood Demon Scripture that eradicated all emotion and desire was his trump card, so secrecy was paramount.

To achieve this goal,

At that time, all the officials, court ladies, and eunuchs who witnessed this incident, except for a very small number of trusted confidants, were all executed by Yang Jiande.

Therefore, the matter was concealed in the palace for a time and did not spread outside.

Externally, they claimed that these people were cowardly and timid, attempting to make peace with the state of Qi.

While Yang Jiande was determined to solidify the will for war, he ordered all who wavered to be killed without mercy.

A further imperial decree was issued: throughout the land, from commoners to royalty, anyone who expressed a desire for peace would be considered a traitor to the state.

To kill the crown prince Yang Xuanji, that's just Yang Jiande's attitude!

Even the prince was killed, throughout Yang Guo, no one dared to speak out against it.

For a time, the entire nation was gripped by terror; only one voice remained.

The high-ranking officials in the military were mostly old subordinates who had fought alongside Yang Jiande. Over the years, while his government had relaxed its grip, he never relinquished control of the military.

Then-Crown Prince Yang Xuanji wanted to force his way into the palace, relying on the power of the court and not bothering with the military at all.

If it's just about going from unfamiliar to familiar again, this process shouldn't take long.

However, Yang Jiande led an army of 210,000, also advancing step by step, as slow as possible. It was as if he were competing with Zhong Xuan and Zhu Liang in a tent-building contest, rather than engaging in a life-or-death battle.

Outsiders or those who don't know, of course, Yang Jiande's military strength wouldn't be doubted by his old comrades in arms. Many people find this puzzling.

Yang Jiande's command tent was very ordinary, lacking the extravagance common to the Yang clan. The only thing that indicated his status as the king was a scarlet dragon flag outside the tent.

At this time, a tall and stout middle-aged general was arguing inside the tent: “You bloodbathed the court and personally killed the crown prince to show your resolve for war. Now we are a united nation of soldiers mourning! This is a time when morale is high, we should seize the momentum. Why are you hesitating here”

Another young general said, "The army of the State of Qi has entered Chiwei. The advantage of terrain is with us at this time. The longer we delay, the more familiar the Qi army becomes with the land, and our advantage will disappear. Your Majesty must think carefully!"

Yang Jiande's old troops from his past campaigns are still referred to as generals today, both out of habit and as a testament to their loyalty. The younger generation of officers in the army, however, still address him as "Your Majesty."

From the titles alone, one can tell that the two generals have different levels of experience.

However, both veterans and newcomers agree on the situation.

All believe that if the Yang Kingdom's army is to win, they must act swiftly and decisively, striking when the enemy forces are still unstable in their position during autumn. They should aim to completely crush them in one fell swoop.

Yang Guo had already mobilized its entire nation for war, while Qi Guo had only deployed one-ninth of its troops. Yang Guo had poured all its resources into the conflict, but Qi Guo had a continuous supply of reinforcements. If the situation dragged on, it would be disastrous for Yang Guo.

Yang Jiande sat high on his command chair, observing his subordinates. He listened intently to every suggestion from the generals.

I haven't missed anyone's eyes.

"In the end, he spoke, saying: 'What my advisors have said, I am well aware of.'"

Yet... Chongxuan Chuliang, how could he be unaware

"If the enemy's army invades like fire, our army can meet them head-on. With the determination to fight to the death, there is a chance of victory."

However, being alone here, I have to say a cruel thing. It's not about giving others ambition and diminishing my own prestige...

Yang Jiande, with his hands resting on his knees, stared intently at his generals: "Tell me, my lords, what are our chances of victory if we engage the Autumn Killing Army head-on"

A gray-haired veteran, his face etched with wrinkles, rose with a moment's tremor. Nevertheless, he spoke, "The Autumn Slaughter Army is the strongest in the world. With ten against one, we had a three in ten chance of victory. Now, with two against one, our chances... are probably only one in a hundred."

The man's surname was Ji, his given name was Cheng. His family had a long line of renowned military generals, and he could be considered the foremost general's family in Yang Kingdom.

It's a pity that by now, the Ji family has fallen into decline. He had two sons and three grandsons, all of whom died in battle. Now, there is only this old soldier remaining as a male member of the Ji family.

A seasoned warrior, though outwardly valiant, cannot but appear forlorn.

His voice trembled as he finished speaking. He then closed his old eyes, seemingly unwilling to face the cruel reality of the disparity in military strength between the two sides. However, as the commander-in-chief, he couldn't afford to avoid it.

“Indeed, ‘a hundred li (50 km) square holds only one person’. ” Yang Jiande first repeated softly, then said: “But why are you all still bringing your armies here Why are you all gathered under my command tent Our 210,000… let’s just call them weaklings for now. What reason do these 210,000 ‘weaklings’ have to gather here And what makes them dare to confront the Qiu Sha army head-on”

He rose from his seat, facing all the generals.

"Our Yang family ancestral temple has been offering sacrifices for twenty-seven generations without interruption. It's not that the people of Yangguo owe our Yang family, but that our Yang family owes the world!"

> But can swords and shields alone stop the suffering of a single person Can the greed of the people of Qi ever be satisfied Will you all find peace of mind Can the people of Yang, from top to bottom, truly be at ease

"The nation of Yang doesn't belong solely to the Yang clan, but rather to all who live on the land of Yang Guo!"

“The people of Qi have wronged me, encroached upon my territory, and killed my people. Yang Jiande may have died without regret, but why should the people of Yang State lose their home and be unable to return as citizens of Yang”

>

A hush fell over the crowd. A group of soldiers, gripped tightly by their weapons, remained silent.

“My lords, we gather here, sword in hand, all for the same purpose.” Yang Jiande pounded his chest with his fist: “My heart is with yours!”

"As for victory, my desire is no less than yours. However, the greater our desire, the more cautious we must be."

>

“For we have only one chance to fight, and the front is a bottomless abyss. If we cannot win this battle, there will be no opportunity to rise again.”

This is a placeholder for content.

"The nation of Yang faces a crisis unseen for centuries. If we lose this battle, I alone will die. But what about you"

“Having lived as a citizen of Yangguo for half my life, at the twilight of my years, have I adapted to the way of life in Qi”

Yang Jiande, after asking this question, looked around, making eye contact with each person until he confirmed that his mental will had been transmitted. He then spoke of military strategy.

"Xuan Chu's every step is carefully planned, with a strategic halt every ten miles. Wherever he passes, either imprisonment or death awaits, leaving no living creatures behind. This shows his readiness for a swift campaign against our army. He is a renowned general throughout the land. Since he is prepared, we absolutely must not engage in a hasty attack."

"However, General, where lies the chance of victory" It was still the white-haired veteran Ji Cheng who trembled and asked, "If we meet force with force, head-on, where lies our chance of victory"

“Wait!” Yang Jiande said.

“Having a single nation’s prestige to back him, he requested surrender. Then he stationed his troops in front of Zhao Heng City. He was all waiting for the renowned general, Zhu Liang, to make a mistake, but Zhu Liang didn't falter; every step he took was cautious and calculated. Those who skillfully employ surprise tactics may achieve victory but will be seen as mediocre if they fail. Those who effectively use regular troops are truly renowned throughout the land! This man’s military strategy has already reached the pinnacle of our time.”

"Facing such an opponent…" Yang Jiande clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit, no fear whatsoever: "My blood is boiling!"

"I'm waiting for a variable, one that isn't within our control. And precisely because of this, it can't be calculated by someone like Chongxuan!"
