of darkness on it, barely perceptible.“This... is sorcery Such a lowly path, yet in your hands it has become so formidable. Qin Guang Wang, you have reason to be proud.”This is the translated content...Yang Jiande gathered an army of 210,000 men to fight a decisive battle against Chong Xuan Chu Liang's 100,000 autumn-killing troops.

This military action was not an attempt to conceal anything from anyone, nor could it have been concealed.

Although it is clear to all that Chong Xuan recruited his troops outside Yang Kingdom's borders, it was in order to wait for Yang Jiande to lead his army to attack.

But Chong Xuan Zhu Liang still represented the State of Qi, sending nine imperial edicts in succession to declare his innocence and persuade Yang Jiande to quell his wrath. He also pointed out that the two states had been closely related for generations, like father and son, and that war between them would be a disgrace to the world...

Even if it were just a misunderstanding, the people of Yangguo would be furious with the contents of these state letters. Let alone the fact that both sides know this war is inevitable.

In short, after the Yang Guo army assembled, they formed a large formation and marched without stopping all the way to the border of the two countries.

>

And the last time, Chong Xuan Zhu Liang only sent a broken halberd. The meaning was too obvious to miss.

A nationwide war that has captivated the entire Eastern Region is about to begin.

The border between the two countries of Qiyang lay where the sun reached, Red Tail in Yang and Ding Yao, Pingxi in Qi, marking the division of four counties.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

To the southeast of Rizhao County, it borders the northwest of Dingyao County in Qi State. It also borders a portion of Pingxi County in Qi State.

But it was roughly the attitude of the magistrate of Rizhao County, Song Guang, that caused alarm. Yang Jiande did not intend to march through Rizhao County this time but planned to go through Chiwei County to reach the front line.

From the map, the entire Akita County looks like a fishtail, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.

And its "tail" touched the lower half of Pingxi County in Qi State.

Of course, in fact, Chong Xuan Chu Liang's handsome tent was also erected outside the county of Pingxi.

Therefore, at this time, Aki District became the center of attention throughout the world.

When the plague was rampant, the Lord of Baigu Dao hid in a certain place within Chiwei County.

>

But Yang Qi and both sides seem to be completely unaware of this, or perhaps, they tacitly "ignore" it.

After killing Shi Jing and surrendering over 4,000 city guards, Qingyang Town became the de facto strongest force in Jiacheng City. Because of its proactive efforts against the plague before the mutation, it had essentially eliminated the plague toxins within its domain.

Although the plague after the change was even more terrifying, Jiang Wang kept it firmly outside with thunderous means—namely, by killing anyone who entered Qingyang Town without being checked.

Due to abundant resources and regular relief efforts towards surrounding towns, Qingyang Town had, to some extent, replaced the functions of the Jiacheng City Lord's Mansion, becoming the central hub of the Jiacheng city area.

Perhaps out of fear of the powerful Xuanjia clan or perhaps too busy with his own pursuits, after Shi Jing's death, the magistrate of Rizhao County, Song Guang, did not react in any way.

But on this day, Jiang Wang once again saw Chong Xuan Sheng.

The man still came empty-handed, only with fourteen followers. The war had begun, and this time entering the Yang Realm did not violate military orders.

"Why are you here now" Jiang Wang asked first from inside the room.

The fourteen, clad in black armor and helmets, stood by the door, radiating an aura of aloofness that kept anyone from approaching or eavesdropping on their conversation.

People in Qingyang Town all knew that Chongxuan Sheng and Jiang Wang were friends, so they were curious, but they didn't show it.

Only Xiaoxiao, seemingly unintentionally, turned in circles many times, her heart harboring a well-concealed dissatisfaction.

She felt that Chong Xuan Sheng's subordinates blocking the door was somewhat disrespectful to Jiang Wang's authority. As for whether Jiang Wang was Chong Xuan Sheng's disciple, this Fourteenth was extraordinary... These were all outside her consideration.

Of course, limited by her capabilities, she could only conceal her resentment.

Inside the room, Chong Xuan swallowed two fruits whole and wiped his mouth, asking in return, "Why do you think Yang Jiande first gathered troops outside Zhaoheng City before launching an attack on the front line"

>

Around he understood that Jiang Wang wouldn't flatter him, so he answered himself: "Firstly, a reason is that he has problems controlling both Chiwei County and Rizhao County. When gathering troops in these two counties, he can't control the unexpected."

"The most important reason," said Chongxuan, "is that both Chiwei County and Rizhao County are undefended. He gathered his troops in Hengyang County, intending to lure our army deep into enemy territory. This would stretch our supply lines and force us to divide our forces. However, the Grand Marshal's inaction prevented him from executing his plan to 'decimate the capital.'"

In the army, he was only addressed as "General," not "uncle."

Hearing this, Jiang Wang also nodded: "Because of the relationship between the mutated plague, time is on our side."

“Since the Grand Marshal won't move, Yang Jiande has no choice but to take action. He must now lead his troops out of Hengyang County and march towards the front lines via Chiwei County. However, the border isn't a suitable battlefield, and there's a lack of strategic space outside Pingxi County. That's why the Grand Marshal also intends to advance into Chiwei County, which means... Chiwei County will be the battlefield!”

Jiang Wang understood, but didn't know what he was up to: "So"

Zhong Xuan smiled and sold a mystery, "Do you know why Yang Jiande's army didn't leave Rizhao County"

Jiang Wang said angrily, "The magistrate of Rizhao County is ambiguous in his attitude. How can he leave Rizhao County"

“Indeed, Song Guang commanded seventy thousand soldiers. He neither submitted to Qi nor obeyed the Duke of Yang's edict. It seems he wants to remain a spectator in Rizhao County, waiting for a high price!”

"What does he want" Jiang Wang was a little curious. "The Chongxuan family shouldn't be short of money, and Qi Guo even less so."

Zheng Xuan Sheng said: "The fate of the Yang nation hangs in the balance of this battle, and Yang Jiande is not short on money!"

Jiang Wang probably understood. While Qi was naturally wealthier, Yang Jiande was more generous at the time of its downfall!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

That is to say, Qi State wasn't unable to offer a decisive price. Rather, the inflated price to that extent would inevitably be terrifying and perhaps not worth it!

Yang Jiande feared Song Guang, and the general commander also had his fears. If both armies were to fight in Chiwei County, how could they allow Song Guang to remain an idle spectator in Rizhao County

Jiang Wang frowned: "Are you saying... Song Guang watching from the sidelines is most likely a scheme set up by Yang Jiande He seems to be taking payment and swaying back and forth, but in reality, he might wait for both sides to clash at Chiwei County, then launch a surprise attack"

Perhaps, perhaps not! But we can't, nor dare we deny this possibility!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"In that case, even if Song Guang surrendered during wartime, he could not be trusted."

"Yes, he wants to surrender, but only before the big battle begins. And he has to be the vanguard, attacking Yang Jiande's army first. Otherwise, he couldn't possibly put the general at ease. But judging by the current situation, he probably won't agree."

"So, what's the big plan, Commander" Jiang Wang asked.

Zhen Xuan squinted his eyes and said, "I have already volunteered. As the eldest son of the Zhen Xuan family and deputy commander of the Qiu Sha army, I will represent the Zhen Xuan family and the Qi army to personally negotiate surrender terms with him!"

Here is the translation of the provided text:This response should only contain the translated text, "

". Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Under the command of Qiu Sha, eight major generals were appointed. Below the major generals were the deputy generals, followed by the commanders and then the deputy commanders.

Zhong Xuansheng's current position in the army is that of deputy commander. Although he has no military achievements to speak of, given the Zhongxuan family's background, a deputy commander as a starting point is not high, on the contrary, it is rather low-key. It is probably for the sake of avoiding suspicion for Zhong Xuansheng's relative Chu Liang.

“This is dangerous!” Jiang Wang said.

If Song Guang had truly been loyal to Yang Jiande from beginning to end.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Then he very likely wouldn't even give Chongxuan a chance to speak, and would directly kill him.

He might even use his status as the direct descendant of the Chongxuan family to bargain with Chongxuan Chu Liang, offering his own life in exchange for something. If Chongxuan Chu Liang refuses, Chongxuan Sheng will surely die. But if he accepts, Chongxuan Sheng's political career will be over.

So when Jiang Wang said it was dangerous, he really meant it.

But Chongxuan just said, "Wealth and honor are sought in danger!"erly monk, followed Jiang Wang step by step, seemingly casually asking, "Your technique for burning the monk's robes just now was quite beautiful.">Ginger's reaction was very calm: "It's an honor."Thi...
