Chapter 544 Azure-Clad Mysterious Heaven Discusses the Great Mystery
"Daoist, although the army led by Yang Su of the Great Xuan Dynasty is brave and invincible, our army can still put up a fight against them on the main battlefield."
"As for Peng Fengjun, he was a staunch loyalist of the Great Xuan royal family, and his Dao soldiers were the elite of the elite. I originally thought they would form a pincer attack with Yang Su, posing a fatal threat to my Qingyi Army."
"However, Peng Fengjun's advance did not seem to be as fierce as expected. Instead, he wavered between the Qingyi Army and Zhu Yuanzhang's forces. There must be something fishy about this."
Then Zhang Tianxuan looked up at Xuantian Daoist and said with a hint of deeper meaning.
"It is already remarkable that the general could see this far."
"It should be understood that in the world, there are often deeper motives hidden beneath the surface of things."
"The reason why Peng Fengjun did not launch a full-scale attack may not be due to a lack of combat strength, but rather because he had concerns or other plans."
Xuan Tian Daoist nodded slightly, stroked his beard, and smiled.
"The Taoist priest's words make sense, but what exactly is Peng Fengjun worried about?"
"Or perhaps, his true target is not just my Green-Clad Army and the Yellow Turban Army?"
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Zhang Tianxuan's eyes, and she said thoughtfully.
"Everything in the world has its cause and effect. As a loyalist of the Great Xuan royal family, Peng Fengjun's actions are inevitably influenced by the royal family's will."
"Perhaps, behind this seemingly simple military operation lies a deeper strategic plan of the Great Xuan royal family."
Xuan Tian Dao Ren smiled slightly, his gaze profound, as if he could see into people's hearts.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianxuan was startled. He knew that Xuan Tian Dao Ren's words were true, and he needed to be even more cautious in his response.
"Master, if what you say is true, how should we respond?"
"Yang Su's advance has already increased the pressure on our army. If Peng Fengjun makes any further moves, our Yellow Turban Army may be in a dilemma."
He pondered for a moment, then could only sigh with a headache.
"General, the art of war says, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.'"
"The most urgent task is to ascertain Peng Fengjun's true intentions, while simultaneously reinforcing the defenses, boosting morale, and ensuring that our army has sufficient capacity to respond when faced with a pincer attack."
Xuan Tian Dao Ren sighed softly. He had no good way to deal with Peng Feng Jun, who was a sharp blade hanging over the heads of the Qingyi Army and Zhu Yuanzhang's troops.
Whether it's the Qingyi Army currently confronting Yang Su, or Zhu Yuanzhang confronting Li Yuan on the other side.
Once Peng Fengjun and his Taoist troops join the battle, they will inevitably suffer a crushing defeat.
The Qingyi Army is in a slightly better position. At least now that Xuan Tong Dao Ren has arrived with Xuan Tian Wei and Chong He Qing, they can hold them off for a while and barely manage to hold on.
However, if Peng Fengjun wants to break the deadlock and sees that Zhang Tianxuan's Qingyi Army is unable to make any progress, she might turn to Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Yuan.
That would be even more explosive; Zhu Yuanzhang's side might suffer a complete annihilation if he wasn't careful!
A saintly commander, Li Shimin, who was also politically astute, along with the beastly Li Yuanba, still managed to thoroughly defeat the current Zhu Yuanzhang.
If you add another Taoist soldier to that, then Old Zhu can basically happily call it GG.
A Taoist army under a normal commander is a completely different matter from one under a saintly commander like Li Shimin.
It can be said that even with just this one army, Li Shimin could have overwhelmed Zhu Yuanzhang.
Add to that Li Yuanba, whose basic weapon level is 110, making him virtually invincible, and there are currently very few emperors on the entire Tianwu Continent who can stop him.
This absolutely does not include the current Zhu Yuanzhang.
Currently, only a handful of people, such as Su Ye, Xuan Yuanpo from the south, and Sai Han from the north, can possibly put together such a luxurious lineup.
At this moment, Zhang Tianxuan's brows were furrowed, clearly indicating that she had also thought of this matter, and her face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm.
Once Zhu Yuanzhang's side couldn't hold out, the entire war situation would collapse.
Next, the Qingyi Army will face a three-pronged attack from Yang Su's army, Peng Fengjun's army, and Li Yuan's army.
It's only a matter of time before they suffer the same fate as Zhu Yuanzhang.
Yang Su's army descended like tigers from the mountain, while Peng Fengjun's Taoist troops were like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment. Not to mention, Li Yuan's forces were also watching from the sidelines, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
"Master, we must take action."
"If we simply defend passively and wait for Peng Fengjun's movements, we will probably only find ourselves in an even more passive situation."
Zhang Tianxuan's voice was low, and her brows were furrowed.
"The general is absolutely right. We cannot sit idly by and wait to die."
"But we must not act rashly, lest Peng Fengjun and Yang Su seize the opportunity and fall into the enemy's trap."
Upon hearing this, the Taoist Master Xuantong gently closed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought. After a moment, he slowly opened them.
"Then, in your opinion, Master, what should we do?"
Zhang Tianxuan eagerly pressed for details. Just like the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Tianxuan was severely lacking in strategists and other intellectuals. He knew that every suggestion from Xuan Daoist could be the key to turning the tide of the battle.
"The art of war says, 'Avoid the strong and attack the weak.' Although we cannot directly confront Peng Fengjun's elite troops, we can try to restrain their actions and prevent them from fully supporting other battlefields."
"At the same time, the general's Blue-Clad Army must also accelerate its offensive against Yang Su, striving for a swift victory to alleviate future pressure."
"Furthermore, we need to defeat Yang Su's army as much as possible, then the three-sided siege of the Great Xuan Dynasty will naturally fall apart on its own."
Master Xuantong slowly began to explain.
However, upon hearing this, Zhang Tianxuan's lips twitched slightly. This seemed to be a feasible solution, which could alleviate the current predicament and gain more initiative in the future.
But the problem is that if he could really quickly deal with Yang Su's army, he wouldn't be wasting his time here.
"Tianxuan understands the Daoist's meaning."
"However, the problem now is how to contain Peng Fengjun while ensuring that our army can quickly defeat Yang Su."
Zhang Tianxuan rubbed his forehead. Now, with the help of Chong Heqing, who had just arrived from the south, and the Xuantian Guard, a force that could briefly demonstrate the strength of Dao soldiers, he was able to contribute.
If we take them by surprise, we can give Yang Su's army a good beating.
However, this would surely mean that Peng Fengjun's Taoist troops would quickly come to their aid from the rear.
It's uncertain whether the Xuan Tian Guards can withstand a complete Dao army at that time.
If Yang Su were to turn against them again, not only might the Xuan Tian Guards not be able to return, but a large portion of his Qingyi Army might also be lost.
Therefore, the Xuan Tian Guards must remain in the rear to guard against any moves by Peng Fengjun.
In that case, everything is back to square one; the current Qingyi Army does not have the strength to quickly defeat Yang Su's army.
"Hmm? It's not like there's no chance."
Zhang Tianxuan was suddenly stunned. A flash of inspiration struck him, like a shooting star streaking across the dark night sky, bringing him a glimmer of hope.
