Due to a series of actions by Meng Zhang and others, Zhang Weineng was completely cut off from all foreign aid.
Zhang Weineng could only rely on the strength of the camp to fight against the coalition forces of Taiyi Sect and Shui Tribe.
Zhang Weineng couldn’t say how long the camp could sustain without reinforcements.
As the eldest disciple of Taiyi Sect, Niu Dawei was highly expected by Meng Zhang and was carefully cultivated.
He has had the experience of being on his own many times, and he can command his army with ease.
Because the Taiyi Sect’s surprise attack team arrived so quickly, not only did Zhang Weineng’s camp not have much preparation, he also had no time to gather the troops scattered throughout Jiuqu Province.
The important pillar of the Dali Dynasty in Jiuqu Province was the Zhenbei Army under Zhang Weineng.
But what Zhang Weineng can command now is only part of the Zhenbei army.
In other important strongholds in Jiuqu Province, such as Yujian Mountain, the original mountain gate of Yujianmen, many partial divisions of the Zhenbei army were stationed, which dispersed a lot of strength.
The sudden rebellion of the Shui tribe caught the Zhenbei army by surprise.
The rebellion at the nearest constraint caused heavy casualties to the Zhenbei army stationed nearby.
Due to the ambiguous attitude of the local cultivation forces, it is difficult to mobilize the local garrison.
The follow-up reinforcements from Taiyi Sect are rushing to the south of Jiuqu Province, launching fierce attacks along the way.
Even the forces scattered throughout Jiuqu Province that were still loyal to the Dali Dynasty were busy dealing with the subsequent waves of Taiyi Sect’s offensives and were unable to support Zhang Weineng’s camp.
After Niu Dawei contacted the Mermaid King, they quickly formed a temporary coalition.
Due to the destruction of Jiuqu City and the interruption of transportation with the mainland of the Dali Dynasty, Zhang Weineng has been unable to obtain sufficient supplies.
Even with the help of large merchants such as the Datong Merchant Alliance, he could barely maintain the material supply for his army.
Facing the threat of Ziyang Shengzong, he would not want to raid Jiuqu Province so as not to panic people and affect the Dali Dynasty’s rule over Jiuqu Province.
There were not enough resources to build a new city, so this camp, which was originally a temporary emergency camp, had to remain and became a semi-permanent building that is still in use today.
Although the camp is protected by a fourth-level mountain guard formation, there are many loopholes.
Zhang Weineng himself has never meant to make this camp impregnable.
In his heart, he is more inclined to take the initiative and fight actively.
The camp, which had insufficient defense to begin with, faced a real challenge when faced with the combined forces of the Taiyi Sect and the Shui Tribe.
Although Niu Dawei is outside the camp, information from all parties is being continuously passed to him.
He knew that his plan was executed very smoothly and everything was executed according to the original plan.
On all other fronts, the Taiyi Sect has a great advantage.
Niu Dawei, who was granted the right to make emergency decisions by Meng Zhang, did not forcefully launch an attack on the camp regardless of the cost.
Instead, let Wen Qiansuan find the weaknesses of the camp’s protective formation and launch targeted attacks to minimize his own losses and slowly consume the enemy’s strength.
The Mermaid King’s thoughts were not focused on the camp in front of him.
He detached at least half of the Shui Tribe army to capture the stronghold of the Dali Dynasty and seize more territory. The focus was on occupying the territory on both sides of the Jiuqu River.
The reason why the Mermaid King sent troops so happily this time? In addition to the consideration of quelling the demonic disaster, it was also the benefit promised by the envoy of the Purple Sun Sect.
During this battle, all the territory captured by the Mermaid King and the Aqua Tribe army will be permanently owned by the Aqua Tribe after the war.
The Mermaid King wants to leave a retreat in Jiuqu Province? This is not entirely an excuse to deceive Zhang Weineng.
Does he really want to occupy enough territory in Jiuqu Province to house the Shui Tribe?
If the demonic disaster in Daheng Cultivation Realm continues to spread and cannot be calmed down in time, the water tribe in the upper reaches of Jiuqu River will very likely slowly migrate to Jiuqu Province.
The long Jiuqu River runs through Jiuqu Province, with many tributaries and wide water areas.
There is enough land here to accommodate the relocated aquarium.
The environment here is also suitable for aquatic survival.
The Mermaid King, who had other thoughts, naturally did not pay all his attention to the battle in front of him.
Of course? The Mermaid King still has some basic sense. He knows that if he doesn’t break the camp in front of him and completely wipe out the official power of the Dali Dynasty, he can’t occupy the territory of Jiuqu Province with peace of mind.
The old and cunning Zhang Weineng never imagined that he would lead a wolf into the house because of his carelessness.
Originally, the territory of Jiuqu Province had long been promised to Meng Zhang by Xiao Liang.
According to the conditions he gave in the Heavenly Palace, after the completion of the matter, the Taiyi Sect can not only rule the Jiuqu Province, but also expand wildly in the Daheng Cultivation World.
But the envoy of the Purple Sun Sect actually condoned the expansion of the Shui Tribe in Jiuqu Province.
Marrying a woman twice was by no means a momentary oversight, but a Machiavellian method of the Purple Sun Sect.
For a Yuanshen sect like Taiyi Sect, no matter how respectful Meng Zhang behaved, Ziyang Shengsong still had instinctive defenses.
Introducing the power of the Shui Tribe into the Jiuqu Province is a check on the Taiyi Sect.
The vast territory of Jiuqu Province is enough to breed many Yuanshen sects, and the Taiyi sect will never be allowed to dominate.
The main goal now is to first eliminate the forces of the Dali Dynasty in Jiuqu Province, and then the Ziyang Holy Sect will rely on the power of Taiyi Sect to quell the demonic disaster.
So Ziyang Shengzong did many things very secretly, and also used the hands of Shui Tribe to compete with Taiyi Sect for territory.
After everything is over and the overall situation has been decided, it is conceivable that Ziyang Shengzong has more means to restrict and control Taiyi Sect.
Of course, everyone at Taiyi Sect, including Meng Zhang, knew nothing about this at this time.
Even if Meng Zhang knew now, but had already boarded the Purple Sun Sect’s pirate ship, he would not be able to get off the ship halfway. He could only grit his teeth and endure, acquiescing to the status quo.
The Taiyimen team led by Niu Dawei, looking for Shuyuan www.zhaｏshuyuan.com and the Shui Tribe army led by the Mermaid King, began to attack the camp in front of them in turn.
The two families join forces and are much stronger than the Zhenbei Army and other monks in the camp.
Perhaps in terms of low-level combat effectiveness, Niu Dawei and the others are much weaker.
But in terms of top-level combat effectiveness, Niu Dawei and the others have an absolute advantage.
The Mermaid King has the strength of the late Yuan Shen, Nanzhu Zhenjun is a great monk in the late Yuanshen, not to mention Qiaomei Zhenjun and Hansong Zhenjun.
Zhang Weineng, the only great monk in the late stage of Yuanshen in the camp, was seriously injured and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
After the war started, he appeared in front of everyone, issued orders one after another with firm command, and personally directed and organized the defense of the camp.
But from beginning to end, he avoided direct confrontation with hostile monks of the same level.
Even if he really couldn’t dodge and had to take action, he would rely on the power of the fourth-order mountain guarding formation to fight against Nanzhu Zhenjun and the others.
