In the next two days, Hezhou City and Diaoyu City fell into a rare peace.

Wanyan Ye, who had just failed to siege the city, naturally would not resiege the city so quickly, and he needed to rest. Yang Renjie and others seized the time to rectify their troops and prepare for the next enemy siege.

Li Huo, Duan Li and other tribes were secretly ready to move. Although their strength was far superior to Yao Ruoyu and others, they were frightened by Chu Kuangge, so they would never dare to take action to seize the city on the surface.

But if Hezhou City falls in Yao Ruoyu and others and then they take action to retake it, then there will be a great opportunity to establish cooperation with Chu Kuangge. By then, the two tribes will truly have the foundation for their establishment.

In this calm, Yao Ruoyu stayed in the military camp and trained the personal guard he had just established.

Because we already knew the plans of Song Kai and others, the entire city-state, whether at the top or at the bottom, did not have much confidence in his army, so we did not notice this at all.

Only Yang Renjie and Chen Meng who occasionally come to truly understand the terrifying changes in this army!

*—*—*—*—*

"What do you think he will do this time?"

Standing next to the sand table, Chu Kuangge asked the others in the tent with interest.

At this time, the people standing in the tent were Chu family, Chu Kuangmou, Chu Kuangyi, Chu Kuangzheng and the five sons of the Chu family, and Chu Kuangge's adopted son, Zhang Ziqiang, who was born in the Literature and Art Department.

Compared to several months ago, Zhang Ziqiang's blood and energy were getting stronger at this moment. Even if he did not deliberately activate his true energy, he was filled with a terrifying bloody smell, and even a faint blood and energy was covered all over his body.

"What else can I do? Fight those golden dogs to death!"

Just when everyone was silent, Chu Yuan suddenly clenched his fists and said carelessly.

Chu Hao, Chu Xuan and others shook their heads silently when they heard this, while Chu Zheng frowned and pondered: "Maybe... what the second brother said makes some sense."

"Look! Lao Wu agreed!" Chu Yuan was overjoyed and quickly shouted to Chu Xuan and Chu Hao with a show of flaunt.

The others were naturally too lazy to pay attention to him. Chu Kuangmou pondered slightly and asked, "Chu Zheng, why did you say that?"

"Recalling the past few battles of the Literary and Art Army and unifying Hezhou City, let's talk about the three battles against our Yanggu Army. It seems that every time they win by wisdom, but in fact, wisdom is the basis and power is the use of wisdom. If they do not have enough power, it is impossible for them to succeed every time."

Shaking the feather fan, Chu Zheng's expression was a little complicated, but continued: "Although Wanyan Ye claimed to be leading 250,000 troops this time, he said that 450,000 of them were ordinary people, 30% were first realm, and 250% were second realm. It seems that there are many people, but once he encounters a powerful army, he will collapse instantly."

"It's like our Yang Gujun, right?" Chu Yuan asked excitedly.

Nodding slightly, Chu Zheng replied: "Well, yes, if the army under the command of three uncles or the Great Wilderness Army under the command of his father, although the number of people is huge, once the army is gathered, it can crush the other party. This means that after the strength reaches its limit, no matter how far the number is, it is useless."

Nodding with a smile, Chu Kuangge smiled and said, "So you think he will fight directly, so what about you? Kuangmao?"

Seeing him calling him, Chu Kuangmou pondered for a few breaths and suddenly said in confusion: "But have they asked us for help? The reinforcements from the three cities of Tongnan, Tongliang and Beibei, plus the Lingquan Army under my command, are enough to defeat these Jin thieves, why bother to find a way again?"

"Yes, why bother to find a way again?" Chu Kuangge smiled slightly, "Because he is Yao Ruoyu! He once proposed to plan for one city in three realms. I really hope that such a person can come up with new things instead of relying solely on our reinforcements to defeat the enemy."

When Chu Xuan heard this, he frowned and hesitated: "So, does my father want to support him?"

"It's okay," Chu Kuangge smiled and explained, "The Song-Jin War has lasted for decades and has never stopped. Several cities on the border have been harassed by wars for many years, but have you not seen it? With the independence of Hezhou City, the number of wars has begun to decrease recently."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Among them, Chu Kuangmou, who had a strong strategy, both had a slightly brighter look, and they obviously understood what Chu Kuangge meant.

Chu Kuangyi, the commander of the Jade Army, reacted the third time and said, "So that's it. It's called a vassal state, but its strength is no different from that of an ordinary city. In this way, the Jin Dynasty's eyes will basically focus on them... Brother, are you planning to support the Literary and Art Army and concentrate the war there?"

"No," Chu Kuangge nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "So, Kuangmou, contact the reinforcements of the three cities. You all delayed the arrival of Hezhou City by half an hour. I want to see if this Yao Ruoyu, or whether this literary and artistic army is worthy of my support."

The others then realized it and held their fists to praise it. However, among the crowd, Zhang Ziqiang was silent, as if they had not heard the conversation they had just heard.

After a few breaths, when the others saw Zhang Ziqiang's strangeness, he suddenly turned around, clasped his fists at Chu Kuangge, and said solemnly: "Entertainment Father, I'll help Hezhou City on time."

Looking at Zhang Ziqiang, Chu Kuangge smiled and said, "Whether they could defeat your five brothers back then was my test for them occupying Hezhou City. Now, can we persist until our reinforcements arrive? It is my test for whether we should support them. Are you sure you want to help them?"

With a slight nod, Zhang Ziqiang said calmly: "The adoptive father can take the test calmly, but I can't."

His answer was actually considered a bad attitude, but neither Chu Kuangmou nor the older generation nor the five sons of the Chu family showed dissatisfaction, as if there was nothing wrong with Zhang Ziqiang's words.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Kuangge nodded: "However, but..."

"I understand!" Zhang Ziqiang clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, "I will definitely not show my five-level cultivation!"

Five realms! Zhang Ziqiang has actually reached the five realms!

From ancient times to the present, countless practitioners have been practicing. In history, no one has ever broken through the five realms before the age of thirty. Even if a genius is at most genius, he will at most break through to the fourth realm before the age of thirty, but it is still difficult to step into the five realm.

Of course, although people like Xu Jingmiao and Zhu Qun broke this limitation on the surface, they all rely on external objects or secret techniques to sacrifice their future potential to reach this level.

But at this moment, it is clear from Zhang Ziqiang's answer that, at the age of 23, he has broken history and has broken through to the fifth realm with himself!

No wonder others disagree with his attitude just now. A person who can break through the fifth level by relying on himself before the age of 30 will definitely be a level strongman in the seventh level or even eighth level in the future. Such a strongman is naturally qualified to remain proud.

*—*—*—*—*

Just as the Chu family was discussing the battle of Hezhou City in the tent, in a mountain range more than 20 miles away from Hezhou City, Wanyan Ye was standing on the mountain peak, looking at the direction of Hezhou City from afar.

Looking at Hezhou City from afar, Wanyan Ye's expression was extremely complicated, with hatred, anger, emotion, and all kinds of emotions constantly changing on his face.

"Wanyanye."

Just as his mood was surging, a faint male voice suddenly came from behind him. Wanyan Ye's body shook and he quickly turned around and smiled, "Little Prince, what are you asking?"

Not far behind Wanyan Ye, there was a young man wearing a golden python robe. He looked not old, but there was a luxurious atmosphere all over his body, like a dragon and phoenix among people, naturally exuding nobility and dignity.

After looking at him, the gorgeous young man said lightly: "There is no order, but the Grand Commander Kuangtao has sent someone to send an order. Tomorrow is the latest deadline, so you must conquer Hezhou City."

Seeing Wanyan Ye’s face looked embarrassed, the luxurious young man looked slightly dark and said coldly: “There are 250,000 troops, but even a mere Hezhou City cannot be captured. We have also seen these days that the entire Hezhou City army is only more than 10,000. You can’t conquer such a small number of people?”

Wanyan Ye's body trembled slightly, and then he said respectfully: "The little prince atones for his sins. The terrain of Hezhou City is dangerous and condescending. My army of 250,000 seems to be numerous, but only a few thousand people can rush up. The other party has a city as a supporter. Xu Xuanrong is also scheming, and it is basically in a short time..."

"What if you don't care about the losses?" the young man waved his hand and asked impatiently.

Wanyan Ye was stunned when he heard this, and after a moment hesitated, "If you ignore the losses, you can naturally conquer it. But there is a spiritual master formation in the city, I'm afraid of this loss..."

"But just some bandits, it's not the regular army of our dynasty. If you lose, you will lose it. It's okay," said the luxurious young man, looking at him with a cold look. "Do you think so many people are more valuable than your own lives?"

His cheeks twitched slightly. Wanyanye hesitated for only half a second, and he clasped his fists and said, "Wanyanye understands!"

"Just understand!" The young man slowly stood up and sneered, "Tomorrow, I will see the blood flowing into a river of Hezhou City."

*—*—*—*—*

Just as the young man was making harsh words, in the city of Lanzhou, which was extremely far away from Hezhou or Chongqing, the young man in purple was silently watching the information that had just been sent by the spies.

This information records in detail the situation in Hezhou City, especially Wanyan Ye has a total of 250,000 troops, and the total number of troops in Hezhou City and Diaoyu City is only 10,000 or 20,000.

Looking at this information, the young man in purple looked quite relaxed and casual, as if he didn't care about the crisis in Hezhou City.

In comparison, the young man next to him seemed much more anxious.

The young man was not tall and slightly fat, but he was very handsome. The faint sense of nothingness around him made him feel mysterious.

But at this moment, the young man looked at the young man in purple anxiously and said anxiously: "Brother Ding, don't you really need to take action? 250,000! Even if they are all chickens, they will be lenient in killing them one by one!"

"Is he anxious?" The young man in purple smiled faintly when he heard this and asked back.

Unpredictably, the other party suddenly asked, and the slightly fat young man was stunned and said in surprise: "He? Who is he?"

"Yao Ruoyu," shrugged, and the young man in purple laughed, "If this guy really had no hope of victory, he would probably run away with others on the first day he returned to Hezhou City. Well, he might stay and continue fighting, but he would never let the rest of the Literature and Art Department stay there."

"But with such a big gap, what can Brother Yao do?" The slightly fat young man frowned and asked in confusion.

"Do you think I am omniscient and omnipotent?" The young man in purple shook his head, "I can't think of his method, but Xu Xuanrong and Song Kai were probably asking for help from the Song Dynasty. After all, they were vassals and were attacked by the Jin Kingdom again. How could they let such a good helper go..."

"However," suddenly frowned, and the young man in purple said lightly, "Although the Song Dynasty would definitely agree to send troops,... will they really help with all their strength? How can they allow others to snore on the side of the bed? Yao Ruoyu is really not brainy and has made such a big name, how can it not attract people's fear?"

The slightly fat young man moved slightly when he heard this, and said in horror: "What do you mean..."

Sighing, the young man in purple said coldly: "Yes! The tree attracts wind and can compete with the fifth realm with the body of the third realm. What if he reaches the fourth realm and the fifth realm, what will happen? Such a vassal really makes people unable to sleep! So if he can suppress one or two a little bit, it would be the best!"

"This guy... took a bad move!"

*—*—*—*—*

"Is that right? Don't you want to?" The man sat silently in the lobby, smiling with a feeling of emotion.

"It's really a group of ungrateful wolves!" Wang Jin clenched his fists in anger and gritted his teeth, "Sir, how much care did you take for them when you were there? Now that they have only been away for a few years, they have forgotten all these kindnesses, especially Zhou Zhi. If you hadn't been promoted back then, he would still be a small pawn!"

Shaking his head, the man stopped Wang Jin's curse: "You can't say that. I helped them back then, and they also supported me. It's just a few years ago that they all have their own developments. Sometimes they can't help themselves and don't have to care."

"What's more, I'm more interested in these children than talking about them," the man murmured with a gentle smile, "but for several months, I have grasped all the hearts of the people in my hands, and I have given everyone a real favor. Such a method... is amazing! Hezhou may be better in their hands."

Wang Jin was anxious when he heard this: "Sir, you can't give up! If it weren't for you, Hezhou City would have been occupied by the Golden Dog, and you also led your people to build the Diaoyu City day and night. Only in your hands can Hezhou City stand firm!"

Waving his hand, the man smiled and said, "I understand your intentions, but the times have changed. After Hezhou City's independence, it has become the most conspicuous place on the borders of the two countries. Even I am not sure that I can stick to it."

Seeing that Wang Jin was still trying to persuade him, the man shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The Jin thief should come tomorrow. I will hang out with you in the army. If those children cannot defeat the Jin people, I will have no choice but to take action."

"But in this way, won't they continue to occupy this Hezhou City?" Wang Jin said anxiously.

"Wang Jin!" The man was suddenly furious when he heard this, and suddenly slapped the table and stood up.

Since the man appeared, he has always been a gentlemanly gesture. Even after Wang Jin's repeated persuasion, he had never aroused hostility towards Yao Ruoyu and others. However, at this moment, anger was truly burning in his eyes.

"Do you know the reason for the destruction of the country and the family? If the city is destroyed and the people are displaced, what's the point of occupying this Hezhou City? What's the face I have to regain the position of the city lord?"

"Okay!" A angrily shout stopped Wang Jin from continuing to speak, and the man said in a deep voice, "If they manage Hezhou better than me, what's wrong with them continuing to sit in the position of the city lord?"
