Chapter 1356 The sudden cause of war, what should I fear?
Wanyan Gu ignored Yun Shirou's message and turned around to complain to Yun Mujiu. After all, he was now a loyal follower of Princess Ye.
That night, Yun Mujiu, Ye Xiaohan and Du Ziheng went to rescue Wanyan Gu who was poisoned by a Gu. Wanyan Gu also completely cleared the Gu poison from his body during Yun Mujiu's later treatment.
Wanyan Gu claimed that he had only suffered a sudden illness, that it was nothing serious and had already been cured. He kept the fact that he had been infected with the brain-eating poison a secret, not even revealing a single word to Wanyan Sen, his fellow courtyard mate.
"Haha, maybe the little prince got poisoned because of this good brother!"
Wanyan Gu no longer trusts the people of Nantai, and he is also thinking about how to turn the Nantai royal family upside down when he returns to Nantai!
Apart from Wanyan Gu who ignored Yun Shirou, other young masters from aristocratic families avoided her as much as possible and said that they did not want to have any contact with Yun Shirou, this vicious woman!
"Get away from me!"
Later, Yun Shirou tried to spread the news and collude with some people, but it was all in vain. She thought that as long as her body returned to normal, she would have the capital to continue to act arrogantly, but she didn't expect that nothing could be changed!
"Haha, it's all in vain, all in vain! How could I, Yun Shirou, end up in such a miserable situation!"
"The more you plan, the more empty the end will be." Yun Mujiu, who heard that Yun Shirou had gone crazy, just said lightly.
Yun Mujiu went to the study in Huayang Courtyard to find Ye Xiaohan, and it just so happened that he would receive the message from Han Yingwei today.
The few Hanying Guards who returned said, "The army led by the First and Second Princes of Dongyang is not large, only a few thousand elite soldiers, and it is not the Black Tiger Army."
It seems that the Night King's inference is really correct. It is impossible for Dongyang to launch a war against Zhongyue now. At most, it will only scare Zhongyue at the border.
Besides, the number of the Eastern Army is so small that if a war really breaks out, the Marquis of Changping and General Yang Wu stationed in the eastern border will be able to withstand their attack.
Moreover, no matter how powerful the Oriental army is, as long as they do not dispatch the Black Tiger Army, Zhongyue will have room to save the situation. After all, Zhongyue is the most powerful of the four small countries, not to mention that Zhongyue also has the famous God of War Prince and the world-famous Golden Guards, right?
All in all, the East is nothing to be feared.
Wei Song was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Since Dongyang doesn't intend to start a war, and it doesn't have the ability to do so immediately, then how do you explain its unusual behavior over the past few months? Why is it conducting military exercises? Why is it sending death squads into the country? Why is it relaxing entry and exit controls between Dongyang and Zhongyue? And why is it approaching our border step by step?"
Ye Xiaohan's brows knitted together as he said coldly, "The unusual behavior of the East must have a purpose. It's - the spiritual vein."
Yun Mujiu's eyes lit up. "Before, Dongyang colluded with Nantai and sent Wan Yansen and his assassins to infiltrate Zhongyue to gather information and search for the whereabouts of the spiritual vein. Now the army is taking action again. I guess they can't wait any longer and are desperate to find the spiritual vein."
Ye Xiaohan looked at Yun Mujiu with a hint of admiration in his eyes and nodded: "That's right. Dongyang's move is aimed at the spiritual vein."
Wei Bai scratched his head: "Your Highness, is the spiritual vein so attractive? It has made a powerful country like the Eastern Empire obsessed with it for many years."
"Perhaps, the value of the spirit vein far exceeds people's imagination." Ye Xiaohan said in a deep voice. Then he said coldly: "The premise is that Zhongyue really has a spirit vein, and the spirit vein is really that valuable, right?"
Wei Bo sighed, "Because the legend of the spirit vein is so alluring, it made Dongyang take action even with the attitude of 'better to believe it exists than not to believe it exists'."
There had been a major change in the spiritual vein matter, and Dongyang had become even more impatient. Yun Mujiu also realized that she and Ye Xiaohan might have to speed up their work schedule!
After Ye Xiaohan puts down the rebellion of the Western Yi, perhaps the couple will have to speed up their journey and go to one of the destinations on their future itinerary, that is, the location of the spiritual vein.
The legend of the spirit vein is too mysterious and too dangerous. If they can't investigate and eliminate this hidden danger in time, I'm afraid that Zhongyue will be in turmoil in the future, and the Xingyue Continent will be plunged into a battle for control...
Immediately afterwards, Han Yingwei reported the second piece of news.
"The Western Yi people suffered from severe drought and had a difficult autumn harvest. However, they were unwilling to spend money to buy food, nor did they think of other ways to resolve the food shortage crisis. Instead, they set their sights on Zhongyue, a country rich in resources." This was one of the reasons why the Western Yi people suddenly provoked a war.
"Western Yi secretly found a batch of top-notch precious medicines and rare books, and cultivated a large number of powerful warriors with profound martial arts skills. Although these people's strength is not before the Martial Emperor, they have already passed the fourth level of Martial King. The fourth level of Martial King is strong in itself, and with the accumulation of warriors with such strength, when the two methods are used together, Western Yi believes that he has the strength to fight Zhong Yue." This is the second reason why Western Yi suddenly provoked a war.
Upon hearing this, Wei Song and his companions were filled with indignation, cursing the Western Yi as "bastards!" They had been taking advantage of Zhong Yue and were planning to eat him up. The Western Yi were also quite cunning. They knew that the nations of the Xingyue Continent had agreed that warriors below the Martial Emperor level couldn't fight on the battlefield, yet they cleverly exploited this loophole and secretly trained warriors below the Martial Emperor level.
Although these warriors on the front lines were not at the Martial Emperor level, they had the advantage of numbers! Many ants could kill an elephant, not to mention that a fourth-level Martial King was no ant!
Ye Xiaohan was the most calm and composed, and he deduced expressionlessly, "Western Yi suddenly found a batch of precious medicines and rare books, which were provided by the East."
"Yes." A cold shadow guard lowered his head and swallowed nervously.
Ye Xiaohan snorted coldly, "Dongyang really has a good plan."
It seems that Dongyang is increasingly unable to tolerate Zhongyue. They wish that Zhongyue would be beaten half to death by other countries, and then Dongyang will come and reap the benefits!
Wei Song asked nervously, "Your Highness, what should we do then? There are only a limited number of high-ranking warriors in our army."
Under the oppression and control of the Eastern Empire, the number of powerful warriors in the armies of the four nations of Beihan, Nantai, Xiyi, and Zhongyue was controlled to a certain limit. Some warriors, after struggling to break through certain barriers, were either quietly killed or taken to the Eastern Empire.
Therefore, in each country, there are basically no more than ten warriors who are close to the level of Martial Emperor.
In addition, the Martial King and the Martial Emperor are two classes of martial arts with similar levels, but there is a world of difference between them. There is a huge gap in strength between the ten small classes divided between them.
In other words, Xiyi has a group of Martial King level 4 people, and if they work harder, they may be able to reach level 5. Although they are still far behind Li Ye Xiaohan, who is on the verge of becoming a Martial Emperor at level 9, they have the advantage of having more people. In addition, Xiyi secretly has the support of Dongyang, so in the end, Xiyi can be said to be of great help in the battle against Zhongyue!
Ye Xiaohan's expression was icy. "So what? He's just a Martial King of the Fourth Stage. What's there to be afraid of?"
He said coldly: "Don't forget, I have already broken through to the Martial Emperor, but I have always been suppressed by the Martial Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Wei Song and his companions felt relieved. That's right, what were they afraid of? They had the prince, and the Golden Guards, who had been personally trained and built by the prince. What was there to fear?
