Chapter 358 Gu Changqing's Skill: Suppressing Heaven and Earth!
"Wuhen, you must remember that a leader must have the composure to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses before him."
"You are the pride of the Ye family, the king of the hundreds of thousands of Night Fiends in Yuzhou!"
"No matter what obstacles we encounter, we must forge ahead!"
Ye Mohan interrupted him, staring at him intently.
"Uncle's teachings are correct; leaving no trace will ensure a successful mission!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Wuhen took a deep breath, suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and his gaze became clear again.
As night deepened, banners fluttered and lights shone brightly at Minglong Pass, where the Night Fiend Army soldiers prepared their defensive fortifications in a tense but orderly manner.
A great battle is about to begin.
During the tense and lengthy preparations, Ye Wuhen stood alone on the city wall, gazing northwards.
That was the direction from which Gu Changqing's army was about to arrive.
His heart was filled with worry, but even more so with determination and resolve.
"No matter the outcome, I, Ye Wuhen, will absolutely not fall here!"
He muttered to himself, his face gradually becoming sharp and stern.
As night fell, a somber atmosphere permeated Minglong Pass, like a sleeping dragon quietly awaiting the impending challenge in the night wind.
Meanwhile, the soldiers inside the pass were united as closely as dragon scales, standing ready and waiting for Gu Changqing's army to arrive.
Meanwhile, Ye Wuhen, along with his uncle Ye Mohan, strategist Ye Yun, and general Zhao Fengyun, were also intensely discussing tactics.
"Report—" Another scout galloped in, "Gu Changqing's army has reached ten miles outside the pass!"
"They've arrived so quickly! Order the entire army to prepare for battle!"
A cold glint flashed in Ye Wuhen's eyes.
As the bugle sounded and the war drums beat at Minglong Pass, the soldiers quickly took their positions.
Dressed in a black robe and holding a long sword, Ye Wuhen stood atop the city wall, watching Gu Changqing's army slowly approach.
Gu Changqing's army was arrayed outside the pass, with war drums thundering and their momentum unstoppable.
However, facing the rock-solid Minglong Pass and the high-spirited defenders, they also felt unprecedented pressure.
As the standoff between the two armies dragged on, the atmosphere on the battlefield became increasingly tense.
Gu Changqing, clad in golden armor, sat astride a white warhorse, his piercing gaze sweeping across Minglong Pass ahead.
The two armies faced off, and the atmosphere on the battlefield became increasingly tense.
"Night Without Trace, why have you rebelled against my Great Qian Dynasty?"
"Did I teach you military strategy so you could use it against the imperial court?"
Gu Changqing took a deep breath, spurred his horse forward, and shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wuhen was startled.
He looked down at Gu Changqing, his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word.
As one of the three kings of different surnames, and also the one who was in charge of military strategy.
Before the Night Fiend Army and the Great Qian Dynasty completely broke off relations, Ye Wuhen, as a junior, was able to achieve this.
Naturally, he had studied under Gu Changqing, the greatest military strategist in the former Great Qian Dynasty.
He was once Gu Changqing's prized student, and he felt deep respect and gratitude for his mentor.
However, political stances and family interests pushed them to opposite sides.
"Night Without Trace, have you forgotten the teachings I once gave you?"
"Have you forgotten your duty as a subject?"
"Now you openly rebel against the court, disregarding the plight of the people. Do you have any conscience?"
Seeing Ye Wuhen remain silent, Gu Changqing grew even angrier and continued to berate him.
Ye Wuhen was rendered speechless by Gu Changqing's questioning.
Facing his mentor, he was unable to explain the reasons and entanglements to Gu Changqing.
He could only silently endure his mentor's angry rebukes and questioning, his heart filled with helplessness.
However, at that moment, an angry shout broke the awkward silence.
An old man wearing black dragon armor poked his head out; it was Ye Wuhen's uncle, the Netherworld War God Ye Mohan.
"Gu Changqing, you old scoundrel! What right do you have to question my nephew?"
"As the Grand Tutor of the Great Qian Dynasty, you have allowed the royal family to oppress the people and persecute loyal officials!"
"The world is now in a state of misery, with people suffering and widespread resentment!"
"Wuhen rebelled against the imperial court precisely to uphold justice and save the people from suffering!"
He glared at Gu Changqing and cursed loudly.
"Ye Mohan, stop talking nonsense! I, Gu Changqing, have spent my life fighting on the battlefield, protecting my country. When have I ever tolerated the royal family oppressing the people?"
"It is your Ye family that is ambitious and harbors treacherous intentions!"
"Today I will act on behalf of Heaven and exterminate you traitors!"
Gu Changqing was furious upon hearing this. How could that old bastard have come out of seclusion?
"Hmph! Gu Changqing, do you think no one knows about the shady things you've done?"
"Your indulgence in the royal family's exorbitant taxes and indiscriminate killings has already aroused public outrage!"
"My nephew, Wuhen, has risen up in accordance with the will of Heaven, precisely to overthrow your corrupt court!"
"If you know what's good for you, you'd better surrender now!"
Ye Mohan sneered upon hearing this, "It's like splashing dirty water."
Although Gu Changqing didn't do it, it doesn't matter, just keep pinning the blame on him!
"Ye Mohan, Ye Wuhen! You two traitors!"
"I, Gu Changqing, will tear you all to pieces today!"
Gu Changqing was so angry that he trembled all over.
That old scoundrel!
As he spoke, he drew his long sword and pointed it at Ye Wuhen and Ye Mohan.
"Ding! Gu Changqing's skill, 'Suppressing the Universe,' is activated!"
Zhenyu: The invincible war god, with the ambition to protect the country, keeps enemies outside the country's gates. This skill is Gu Changqing's exclusive command skill, symbolizing his rock-solid defense and impeccable command ability.
Effect 1: When Gu Changqing commands troops in battle, his command increases by 1 if he commands less than 100,000 troops, by 2 if he commands between 100,000 and 300,000 troops, by 3 if he commands between 300,000 and 500,000 troops, and by 4 if he commands more than 500,000 troops.
Effect 2: When the enemy attacks the army led by Gu Changqing, the martial prowess of all enemy generals decreases by 1 point, and the martial prowess of Gu Changqing's army increases by 1 point.
Effect 3: If the enemy general's base leadership is lower than yours, and you are the commander-in-chief, there is a certain probability that you can suppress the enemy general's leadership and reduce their leadership value by 1-3 points.
