The Dali Dynasty had clear distinctions between rewards and punishments. Those who had merit would be rewarded, and those who made mistakes would be punished.
The expedition army had a bad start, so Zhang Weineng still had reasons to defend himself and was able to evade one or two reasons.
But the barbarians outside the territory underwent such a huge change right under his nose. He knew nothing about it before, but now that the war has begun, he only learned the details from his subordinates. This is a bit unreasonable.
Originally, the Dali Dynasty was only unwilling to pay excessive casualties, so it tolerated the foreign barbarians entrenched on the Yuantu Prairie.
From the beginning to the end, the Dali Dynasty was able to eliminate this group of extraterritorial barbarians as long as they were willing to pay the price.
But now, this group of extraterrestrial barbarians have extraterrestrial gods as their backers, and the situation becomes complicated.
If the Dali Dynasty wants to completely eliminate this group of barbarians, they don’t know how much they will pay.
If it were not a time of war but a time of employment, Commander Zhang Weineng, who had neglected his duty, might have been accused by the court.
Now, he urgently needs to make some achievements so that he can make meritorious deeds.
Soon, he sent a message to Meng Zhang and Zhenjun Wen Dong, asking Meng Zhang to lead an army of monks to the junction of Yuantu Prairie and Jiuqu Province to help the local cultivation forces who were fighting hard there and besiege the invading army together. The barbarian army outside the territory.
It seems that Zhang Weineng did not lose his calm, but remained awake and made a rational judgment.
He knew that the barbarian camp that had been transformed into a divine domain could not be conquered for the time being, so he let the local cultivation forces besiege the barbarian army outside the camp.
After receiving the order, Meng Zhang did not dare to neglect and immediately led the army to turn around and rush towards the direction of the barbarian army outside the territory.
Originally, the barbarians outside the territory tightly blocked their movements because they were worried about being interfered with by outsiders when the camp was transformed into a divine domain.
At the same time, after the transformation work is completed, the enemy army can be lured into the coverage area of God’s Domain.
When the time comes, by activating the power of the divine realm, we may be able to annihilate the enemy’s main army.
Now, the secret of God’s Domain has been exposed, and the barbarians outside the domain have also made new moves.
When Meng Zhang led the army of monks towards the battlefield, the barbarian army that was fighting with the local coalition of cultivators also began to retreat on its own initiative.
The strength of the two sides is not much different to begin with. They have been in a stalemate stage before, and the barbarians even have a slight upper hand.
The barbarian army, which had taken the initiative on the battlefield, left immediately and retreated in front of the enemy.
Xu Mengying and other True Lord Yuanshen led an army of monks to pursue, but the enemy was heavily guarded, leaving them no opportunity to take advantage.
In the final analysis, these local cultivators had no choice but to join the Dali Dynasty.
They have no intention of working wholeheartedly for the Dali Dynasty. Everything they do is just for their own survival.
Facing a strong enemy, preserving strength is the first priority.
The enemies have already begun to retreat, so why go through the trouble of really chasing them down and killing our own monks for no reason.
Even if there are supervisors sent by Zhang Weineng among the army, they still have many ways to fool and deal with each other.
The barbarian army retreated steadily, and the coalition forces of the local cultivators tried to catch up, but the thunder was loud and the rain was light. They just hung far behind the enemy and had no intention of catching up and fighting.
When Meng Zhang led the army of monks to rush over, the local coalition of cultivators also received orders from Zhang Weineng, asking them to join forces with Meng Zhang to keep this barbarian army behind.
The supervisor Zhang Weineng sent to the local coalition of cultivators was Zhenjun Yang He.
Zhenjun Yang He is the Yuanshen Zhenjun who was trained by the Imperial Academy of the Dali Dynasty. He has a strong scholarly spirit.
The Dali Dynasty was inclusive and open-minded. In addition to the mainstream Taoism in the world of cultivation, it also accepted many Confucianisms.
The monks who came from Taixue in the Dali Dynasty were all deeply influenced by Confucianism. Each of them regarded themselves as a gentleman, abided by the principles of monarch and minister, and paid attention to the rules of monarch, minister, father, father and son. The slogan of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country was even more popular. Extremely loud.
For monks who were born in Taixue, Emperor Bawu regarded them as direct descendants of the dynasty and gave them great trust.
Shortly after the establishment of Jiuqu Province, Yang He Zhenjun came to Jiuqu City from Shangjing City.
Nominally, he assisted Zhang Weineng in governing this newly incorporated province, but in fact, he served as Emperor Bawu’s eyes and ears, monitoring local developments.
Zhang Weineng remained calm on the surface and accepted Yang He Zhenjun happily. But in fact, as a powerful provincial governor, he didn’t like people gesticulating around him.
This time, local cultivators in Jiuqu Province were ordered to attack the Yuantu Prairie. In order for them to fight hard, Zhang Weineng also sent out supervisory troops.
Taking this opportunity, he appointed Lord Yang He, whom he had always disliked, as a supervisor and sent him to the coalition of local cultivation forces.
This group of local cultivation forces occupied one side and were quite powerful when the Jiuqu Alliance was still there.
To be able to survive until now, the leaders of these cultivation forces have considerable survival wisdom.
The Yuanshen Lords of these cultivation forces are basically a bunch of old foxes who are proficient in calculations and understand people’s hearts.
Not long after getting along, they figured out some details about the true gentleman Yang He Zhenjun.
After they discussed it, they gritted their teeth and took out many rare treasures and spiritual objects from heaven and earth.
A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is very particular about what he does. Now that I have accepted the gift, I will not make things difficult for these people, but will turn a blind eye to what they do.
After taking care of the military supervisors, everyone has the possibility to passively avoid war.
Now that they have received the order from Commander Zhang Weineng, they still just maintain a pursuit attitude and have no real intention to catch up and fight.
By the time Meng Zhang led the army of monks to join them, the barbarian army had already begun to retreat deep into the Yuantu Prairie.
After the two armies of monks merged, Meng Zhang, who was originally the leader of the local cultivation force, naturally became the leader of this new coalition.
The various forces in the coalition basically came from the small alliance he formed, and they knew each other’s ins and outs at Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com.
Everyone wants to preserve their power, so they naturally know what to do.
The monk coalition seems to be following closely behind the barbarian army, but various problems always arise.
Either it causes the army to slow down its advance, or it causes the army to miss the opportunity to catch up with the enemy…
In a word, this seemingly huge army of monks has never been able to catch up and stop the enemy.
Zhenjun Yang He, who had received the benefits, just paid it back. Zhenjun Wen Dong, who had always been loyal to the Dali Dynasty, quit.
When he was about to put pressure on Meng Zhang, the situation took a new turn.
Several fourth-level barbarian warriors led a group of barbarian elite warriors, left the barbarian camp, and came to join the barbarian army.
The strength of the supported barbarian army has greatly increased, and it is no weaker than the monk coalition.
