The Legend of Immortal Yun

When Gu Cheng's army arrived at the border of Chu State, they found that it had been replaced by the flag of Ling Daozi's camp. The defenders in the city had already made preparations to defend the city. They appeared to be in great military appearance and high in fighting spirit, which made him gasp. A breath of air conditioning!

Thinking of the tragic experience of the last battle against Zheng, Wei, Zhongshan and Chen, he still had lingering fears.

In that battle, he lost millions of sergeants, countless grain, grass, and horses. It also made the sergeants fearful of attacking the city. In the end, the defeat also caused turmoil within the camp, and many countries began to After so many years of resistance, I have finally suppressed all these resistances and regained my strength. If there is another big defeat at this time, then all my previous efforts will be wasted and it will be difficult to restore the situation!

However, Chu State's surrender to the enemy this time caused Gu Cheng to lose face. Moreover, if he is not punished, on the one hand, it will be hard to get rid of his hatred. On the other hand, other controlling countries will also follow the example of Chu State. If they all learn from Chu State, If you surrender to Ling Daozi, your own camp will be destroyed!

"Hit!!!" Gu Cheng gritted his teeth and roared!

"Rush!!!"

The sergeants shouted and began to attack the city...

Since there were no siege weapons in the Warring States period at this time, not even artillery, so sieges mostly used ladders, archery and sergeant charges. The defenders were condescending and had a moat, so they were actually very easy to defend. , Therefore, under the command of Ling Daozi, the Chu side easily withstood Gu Cheng's repeated attacks, and numerous corpses were piled up under the city wall...

Gu Cheng saw that this was definitely not going to work, so he stopped attacking after a while and set up camp outside the city...

"Your Majesty, it's not good!" A sergeant ran over and shouted.

"What's going on?!" Gu Cheng was shocked.

"The water source outside the city is poisonous. Many soldiers and war horses were poisoned after drinking the water!"

"Oh my God!!!" Gu Cheng exclaimed.

He quickly checked and found that it was indeed the case. At least half of the combat power was damaged. Those poisoned soldiers and horses were not only unable to fight, but also needed medical treatment and maintenance. Trouble!

Gu Cheng had not calculated that Ling Daozi could poison running water. This situation was rare, because generally speaking, living water is difficult to poison. Because of this, he almost ignored it. I knew this, but I didn’t expect that I would be tricked just because of this oversight!

Fortunately, this poison is not very vicious. Neither the soldiers nor the horses will die immediately, but the poison will continue to leak and make them miserable!

This situation also caused the entire military camp to stink. Soon the plague spread, and more and more people fell...

"Withdraw!!!" Gu Cheng had to order.

Of course, he was also on guard that Ling Daozi's army would pursue him one after another, so he set a trap during the retreat, waiting for the opponent to catch up and turn defeat into victory!

To his surprise, his plan was useless, because Ling Daozi did not chase him out of the city, and even sent people to place many antidote medicines along the way so that the soldiers and horses could be treated in time...

When Gu Cheng saw this scene, he was stunned!

Ling Daozi's move was even more terrifying than the tail-to-tail pursuit, because Gu Cheng had already seen the result from the expressions of the soldiers. Not only did everyone not hold any grudge against Ling Daozi, but they were extremely grateful!

"It's over, it's over... Ling Daozi is attacking the heart, not the person. If this matter spreads, I'm afraid everyone will worship and admire him extremely..." Gu Cheng suddenly felt in his heart,

lamented.

His perception was correct. Why did the soldiers not hold a grudge against Ling Daozi for using poison? This was because the two sides were facing each other and naturally used all possible means. It was his problem that Gu Cheng was not prepared for the poison move, not Ling Daozi's problem, on the contrary, proved that Ling Daozi was superior in chess and commanded properly.

After Gu Cheng withdrew his army, Ling Daozi did not pursue him. Instead, he sent antidotes to help heal the poisoned soldiers and horses. This shows that Ling Daozi had benevolence and righteousness and did not kill everyone!

The soldiers who had been detoxified had already lost their fighting spirit and will to fight. After they returned, they would publicize this matter, so that Ling Daozi's reputation would spread throughout the world...

Gu Cheng couldn't deal with this move at all, because he couldn't shut everyone's mouths, even if he took 10,000 steps back and said he had done it, Ling Daozi would also send people to sneak into his camp to publicize the matter, and the result would be the same. !

Sure enough, not long after the army retreated, several countries on the border turned to Ling Daozi, but Gu Cheng was actually helpless about this. Punishment was not a problem, and not punishment was not a problem. He was in a dilemma.

However, Ling Daozi was advancing in an orderly manner. More and more countries were instigating rebellion, and he hardly needed to use a single soldier!

After these countries joined his camp, they quickly integrated into the entire economy and became new markets and development driving forces. They had a completely new look and their national power increased greatly!

Such a change naturally caused other countries to join in and break away from the ancient...

Facts have proved that Ling Daozi's strategy is more popular with these countries, while Gu Cheng's military strategy of relying on war to support war has been spurned by them!

No one wants to live in poverty and war forever. Gu Cheng's strategy is only suitable for certain careerists and militants, but these people will be extremely excited when they win, and will go to the other extreme when they lose. They are often negative and pessimistic, unable to rise up in the face of adversity, and are even the first group of people to retreat and escape...

Gu Cheng watched helplessly as the countries in the camp fell to Ling Daozi one by one, but he was helpless. In the end, only his base camp was left!

The army under his command has been greatly reduced, and only one of his own soldiers is left. How can he fight this battle?

"Brother Gu, do you still want to last this set?" Ling Daozi said with a smile.

"This..." Gu Cheng was startled, speechless, and his face turned extremely red.

He had actually lost this game a long time ago. The reason why he had endured until now was because he did not want to face reality and did not want to lose the three required bets. However, in the current situation, he had no way to make a comeback, and there was no way he could do anything else. Opportunity!

"Is this really the first time for Brother Ling to play national war chess?" Gu Cheng asked in disbelief.

"Of course, if you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do." Ling Daozi said.

"Okay! With your chess skills, you should be far beyond level 136. If you have the opportunity to go to our Yika planet, you might be able to become one of the top chess masters!" Gu Cheng praised.

On the surface, he said this to compliment Ling Daozi, but in fact, he was trying to flatter himself and raise his own chess level in disguise, because the higher he praised Ling Daozi's level, the more likely he would lose to Ling Daozi. It’s nothing.

Ling Daozi couldn't tell and said with a smile: "No, no, I'm just lucky. I guess Brother Gu hasn't played for too long and was a little absent-minded, so he took advantage of me! If the game continues, I'm afraid I will His true colors will be revealed..."

"Brother Ling is victorious but not arrogant. You are really like everyone! Gu admits his defeat. Just tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will agree to it!" Gu Cheng said sincerely.

"Hehe, Brother Gu is really super powerful, and he keeps his word, which makes me admire him very much! As for the three requirements, in fact, I just have some curiosity. I hope Brother Gu can satisfy it. Of course, if Brother Gu can To tell you the truth, I also have some information to report back to Brother Gu, I believe Brother Gu will not feel at a disadvantage!" Ling Daozi said.

"Oh?! I'm willing to admit defeat. Since Gu lost this time, I will naturally tell the truth." Gu Cheng snorted.

"Thank you, Brother Gu! My first request is..."

"What?!" Gu Cheng asked urgently. He was still a little nervous, worried that Ling Daozi would propose something too extreme.

"Actually, I already know that Brother Gu is the spiritual consciousness body of the powerful person sleeping underground. The first request is to ask Brother Gu to contact the body and ask him not to accept the giant transformation technique too quickly after he wakes up. For this reason I will explain it to you in detail next." Ling Daozi said in astonishment.

Gu Cheng was shocked when he heard this. He stood up and his expression changed drastically!

"You...who are you?! How do you know that I am the body of consciousness?!"

"Brother Gu, don't worry. I'm from the Xuanling world. As for why I know the relationship between you and the main body, I discovered it during the game with you."

"Oh? How did you find out?!"

"Although Brother Gu has been playing chess with the younger brother, he uses his spiritual consciousness from time to time to check the conditions of various acupuncture points in the body. It is obvious that Brother Gu's task is to ensure that those acupuncture points are functioning normally, and of course the younger brother can see that Gu Brother is the body of a divine soul, so by comparing the two, it is not difficult to judge the relationship between Brother Gu and the great power sleeping underground!" Ling Daozi analyzed.

"This...Brother Ling's consciousness is so sharp, it's really beyond Gu's expectation! But..."

"But what?"

"You said you are from the Xuanling World. This is impossible!" Gu Cheng said loudly.

"But why?" Ling Daozi asked curiously.

"Hmph, how powerful can people in the Xuanling World be? How could they snatch the flying boat from under my hand? How could they detect the activities of my consciousness? How could they beat me in the national war chess game?!"

"Brother Gu said this, does he underestimate the people of the Xuanling World?" Ling Daozi teased.

"No, no! People in the Xuanling world are originally raised by the main body. The era they live in is too backward and primitive. They have not yet entered the threshold of cosmic cultivation. No matter their body, cultivation level, or technique, they cannot adapt to the cosmic environment. , not to mention their wisdom, they don’t understand many things, so how can they do what you have done?!" Gu Cheng said.

"Although we live in a relatively primitive era, after all, more than two thousand years have passed. Life will always evolve, and some people will always stand out. It is not surprising that I can do this. You must know that Brother Gu is just a ray of the original body. It’s just spiritual consciousness and has limited abilities. If I were to be here in my true body, then of course I wouldn’t be able to do these things..."
