Phantom Thief and King of Isekai

83 No Man's Land

In August of the second year of Daxiong's founding, Emperor Sheng Lingyun led a large-scale army of 200,000 central troops to march into the Miao territory. The army opened on the first day of the month and arrived in the northern part of Miao territory in just 68 days.

    The army arrived at the southern border of the Shu area and the Miao territory, and then garrisoned there.

    This is a steep valley and also the border between Nobita and Miao. Sheng Lingyun is stationed here and is not eager to attack because he is waiting for the right time.

    Sheng Lingyun sometimes seems very impulsive, but in fact he is a very calm person. When he made any decision, he had to think carefully and think about it. There has never been a decision made only by an impulsive thought. Therefore, this time Sheng Lingyun chose to temporarily suspend the advance because of his own deep consideration.

    Because Nobita and Miao Jiang had never met before, Nobita—including Sheng Lingyun and his generals—had no knowledge of Miao Jiang. Therefore, Nobita needs to have some understanding of Miao Jiang before he can continue to march.

    This matter, Sheng Lingyun handed it over to the strategists who were walking with the army - Qi Yin and Qi Boyuan.

    Qi Yin is Sheng Lingyun's cleverest and most strategic military division. Qi Yin was originally from the Chu country. In the Central Plains war in 163 BC, he suddenly appeared in Sheng Lingyun's military account, made three suggestions to Sheng Lingyun, and then drifted away. Sheng Lingyun quickly sent someone to chase him back, and kept him with the best conditions.

    After that, according to the countermeasures mentioned by Qi Yin, Sheng Lingyun defeated the allied forces of the four Central Plains countries. Since that war, the Central Plains countries have never had any force that can compete with Daxiong. It took Sheng Lingyun less than three years to defeat the Four Kingdoms one by one. Therefore, it is not excessive to say that it is Qi Yin who has contributed the most to Daxiong's unification of the world.

    However, Qi Yin did not take credit. He declined the post of "Yu Shi Ling" given to him by Sheng Lingyun-which was second only to the emperor Zhuo Sui and the same level as the general Zhou Xuanyuan-but wanted to retire. . Later, when Sheng Lingyun was repeatedly saved, he agreed to a semi-idle job-Jiying Envoy.

    This official position is responsible for collecting talents for the court. Usually there is no specific matter, but the power is not small, because whoever wants to enter the court and occupy a high position must rely on the promotion of the ambassador. Sheng Lingyun gave this official position to Qi Yin, also wanting to expand his influence in the DPRK. This is because Qi Yin does not like being an official, nor does he like to deal with interpersonal relations between officials.

    That's why Sheng Lingyun specially gave him this official position, so that he could have his own faction without having to deal with interpersonal relationships. Qi Yin was indeed very good at digging up talents. Later, in the era of Emperor Zhao Sheng, known as the "Government of Zhao Sheng," the "five sages" who created that prosperous age were all talents selected by the envoy Qi Yin to the court. It can also be said that Qi Yin is not an exaggeration to create Nobita's glory.

    However, what Qi Yin is best at is not to discover talents. There is only one thing he is best at-that is military.

    Qi Yin is a military genius, his views and opinions on the military are sometimes even unexpected to Sheng Di Sheng Lingyun. At that time, the three major martial artists recognized by the world were Sheng Lingyun, the emperor, Zhou Xuanyuan, and Qi Yin.

    Among them, Sheng Lingyun's marching operations are known for their tactics. Sheng Lingyun's combat style has changed a lot. He is often used to making plans on the eve of battle, and he rarely tells his plans to his subordinates, thus putting an end to it. Information leakage, and sometimes, even Sheng Lingyun himself didn't know what his marching plan was for tomorrow, which also made the enemy unable to guess Sheng Lingyun's strategy.

    Zhou Xuanyuan's combat style was completely opposite to Sheng Lingyun's. His combat habit was to plan everything before dispatching troops, and then proceed step by step in accordance with the plan he had planned. It can be said to be a typical example of exhaustive strategy and strategic planning.

    On the other hand, Qi Yin is different from the two of them. If his fighting style is described in one word, it is "weird." Qi Yin's strategy is always unexpected by anyone. At first it sounds crazy. Crazy-speaking fantasy, but when you implement it exactly, you will find that Qi Yin's strategy is not only right, but also achieves unexpected results.

    This time, Qi Yin gave Sheng Lingyun a plan that no one had thought of.

    "There is no way to use Miao people to fight Miao people, how about?"

    Facing Sheng Lingyun who asked him about his plan, Qi Yin said with a smile.

    "Oh?" Sheng Lingyun suddenly became interested when he heard the words, "Qing Ke said carefully."

    "The two'Miao people' in Bucai do not mean the same thing. The former refers to the Chinese immigrants in the Miao territory and those who merge with the Miao people; the latter refers to the Miao people inherent in the original Miao territory. Bucai It has been heard that the Miao people are very suppressing foreigners, so the Chinese people in Miaojiang have always been humiliated by the Miao people. If you don't think about it, it is better to unite with the Chinese people in Miaojiang——It should be noted that the Chinese people in Miaojiang are not less than the original Miao Many-the Chinese people in Miaojiang are familiar with everything about Miaojiang. If they can connect with them, they will surely destroy Miaojiang!"

    After Qi Yin finished speaking, Sheng Lingyun couldn't help but clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Qing's words make me suddenly enlightened!"

    Qi Yin smiled slightly and said, "In this way, you can wait for the day'King Gu' is captured."

    Sheng Lingyun did not hesitate to adopt Qi Yin's strategy, and then led his army into the Miao territory.

    Nobita's army is on the land of Miao, and it connects with the Chinese people in Miao. According to the guidelines of the Chinese, it rushes all the way, like entering the land of no one. It took only one and a half months to occupy two-thirds of the land of Miao. , The army is approaching the center of the Miao area-Tianluo City, where the "Gu King" and the "High Priest" are located.

    Tianluo City was established thousands of years ago, and it is said to be a city opened by the great god Tianluo of Miao. For thousands of years, it has been the center of Miao territory, and the "Gu Kings" and "High Priests" of the past have also been in Tianluo City. This time, facing the surging two hundred thousand great heroes, the people in the Miao border were panic, but the "Gu King" and the "High Priest" had never appeared, which could not help making everyone more uneasy.

    The mighty deeds of the Daxiong Army have spread throughout the Miao area. People in the Miaojiang area have rumored that the Daxiong Army has three heads and six arms, and everyone has the courage to be a hundred. In the Miao territory, there are even some Miao people who are packing their luggage and want to go to the Daxiong army.

    And just when Miao Jiang was in such an unprecedented crisis, the "high priest" who had never appeared suddenly appeared, summoning all the Miao people in Tianluo City, and convening a "Tianluo Holy Assembly."
