Chapter 662: Immortals in the World
"In fact, I knew this day would come a long time ago."
After hearing this, Lin Xiaofan became even more confused. Since Sun Wufeng had predicted this day and this happened, why didn't he rush back to Datang as soon as possible, but instead came to Daqian to find him?
"Don't worry, there won't be any trouble in the Tang Dynasty."
Sun Wufeng smiled and said.
"The Xiongnu in the north are no longer a force to be reckoned with. Fan Yong, with his Fan Family Army, is enough to resist Tianwu. He is quite capable of defending a city."
"Although both Da Qi and Tian Lang have sent troops to the Tang Dynasty, the two countries have been at war for the past few years, and have suffered heavy losses in manpower, and their hatred has only grown. They are on guard against each other, so they can only send a few troops."
"Although Li Zhao is still young, he is quite talented. In addition, the generals I have placed around him are all loyal and brave, and they hold real power. If he succeeds to the throne, there will be no chaos in the Tang Dynasty."
"With the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, even if it has to deal with the three kingdoms at the same time, it will suffer a lot, but it will not cause a great loss of national strength or even the destruction of the country."
Sun Wufeng said slowly.
Lin Xiaofan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Tianlang and Daqi had only about 400,000 soldiers in total. At least 100,000 soldiers were left on the border between the two countries to guard the city in case of an ambush by the other side.
Troops and horses also had to be left behind in the capital and other border areas. Especially the Tianlang Kingdom, a large number of troops were needed to guard Daqian, so not many could be sent out.
The national strength of the Tang Dynasty is sufficient to cope with it.
"So, Master, what's your situation?"
Lin Xiaofan asked again.
"Haha, three years ago, I slowly started forgetting things, and the speed was getting faster and faster. I even didn't recognize the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty anymore."
"At the most critical moment, my power broke through and I was able to live another ten years longer."
Speaking of this, Sun Wufeng's face was full of relief. The feeling of coming back to life seemed to still echo in his heart.
"But this is the last ten years. No matter how much I improve my skills in the future, I can't extend my life."
But Sun Wufeng was not depressed. He had lived for more than a hundred years, and he had lived enough.
The underworld is full of his friends and disciples, so he won't be lonely down there.
"Don't spread the news of my coming this time. The purpose of my coming here is to help you destroy the Tianlang Kingdom."
Sun Wufeng said slowly.
"Destroy the Heavenly Wolf..."
Lin Xiaofan took a deep breath and felt it was a bit ridiculous.
Tianlang Kingdom is a truly great country, with a land area three or four times that of Daqian and a population of tens of millions.
Although there are not enough soldiers now, they can raise a large number of soldiers at any time as long as they want.
With the national strength of Daqian, he thought about taking this opportunity to expand some territory, but he never thought of attacking Tianlang Kingdom.
"What, are you scared?"
Sun Wufeng asked, raising his eyebrows.
"I'm not afraid, but I feel a little excited."
Lin Xiaofan smiled and said.
Who is Sun Wufeng? He has been a great general for a hundred years. He has fought more battles in his life than an ordinary person has eaten salt. He has been number one on the list of great generals for nearly a hundred years.
The generals and counselors in the world are not convinced by anyone else, but they all admire Sun Wu's style.
Since Sun Wufeng said this, it means that the other party is fully prepared.
"Haha, I was afraid that your edges would be worn away over the years, and you wouldn't dare to fight."
Sun Wufeng was very satisfied with this reply.
"Whether this will succeed depends on luck. Even if it doesn't, it won't be a problem to take over one-third of the land of the Tianlang Nation."
"Master, I believe you. But since you are prepared, why don't you leave this good thing to the Tang Dynasty?"
Lin Xiaofan asked with some confusion.
Although Sun Wufeng treated him well, he did not think that his status in this old man's family was higher than that of the Tang Dynasty.
"The Tang Dynasty only has 500,000 or 600,000 soldiers, which is a bit difficult to deal with the attacks of the three countries. Even if I go, I can only stabilize the situation at most. Besides, there is a Longhu Mountain Range between the two countries. It's okay to cause some troubles to the other side by stealing, but it's impossible to destroy the country."
"Even if we borrow the passage from Daqian, it will consume a lot of food and grass, and we will have to divide our troops. If we are not careful, we may face the crisis of national destruction."
Sun Wufeng shook his head and said.
"indeed so."
Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly.
The conditions for the Tang Dynasty to send troops to fight Tianlang were too harsh.
"Then Master, how do you think we should fight this battle?"
Lin Xiaofan asked.
"I will serve as your counselor. I will eat the jade first. Then, we will divide our troops into two groups. One will contain the main force of the Tianlang Kingdom head-on, and the other will take a small path and head straight for the capital of Daliang."
As he spoke, Sun Wufeng picked up a bag beside him, opened it carefully, and took out a map from it.
Slowly spreading it out, it turned out to be a map of the Tianlang Kingdom.
"Master, this..."
Lin Xiaofan looked at the map and felt unbelievable.
This map is so complete.
Some sparsely populated forests and paths that few people travel on are marked on the map. It is hard to imagine how much effort Sun Wufeng spent on this map.
"I had people prepare this map for twenty years. There is a simpler copy in the Tang Dynasty Treasury. In the past three years, I have been wandering around the Tianlang Country and finally completed all the details."
Sun Wufeng's face was full of pride. With this map, it would be easy to launch a surprise attack on Tianlang Country.
"Let's send out the troops today without delay. I happen to have an elite force under my command, which is perfect for a surprise attack."
Lin Xiaofan said slowly.
"Is it the Vanguard Army? I've heard a little bit about it."
Sun Wufeng smiled and said.
"Beep, beep."
There was a knock on the door.
"Master Guanjun Hou, General Chen Tian invites you to discuss matters."
The soldier outside the door reported.
"It must be something urgent. Master, please come with me."
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth to invite.
"Ah."
Sun Wufeng nodded slightly, put on a bronze mask on his face, and bent his body, looking like an old man who was about to die.
At first glance, he couldn't be associated with the legendary general who ranked first on the God General List.
There were several generals standing in the meeting hall. Lin Xiaofan didn't recognize most of them, except Chen Tian.
"Hurry up, who is this?"
Chen Tian asked.
"This is my master."
Lin Xiaofan answered.
"master……"
Chen Tian thought about it and suddenly realized.
He had also heard a little about Lin Xiaofan having a master.
After all, when Lin Xiaofan first came out of the mountains, he was only sixteen years old, and he knew all kinds of magic and strategies. To be honest, no one would believe him if he was self-taught.
But later, Lin Xiaofan became famous, and since he never mentioned the matter of his master, people gradually forgot about it.
Now that it was mentioned again, he remembered it.
According to legend, the person in front of you is an immortal!
Chen Tian's eyes lit up. If he did this a few more times, the Tianlang Nation would be overthrown.
If you try to please him and he teaches you some secrets of longevity, you might be able to live a few decades longer.
