Chapter 48 Intelligence Analysis
During the cessation, the ninth uncle Wang Zhide made a special trip back to Yuquan Peak to see the old brothers on their last journey and brought back the latest news about the battle.
After the worship, Wang Jize held a family meeting, and Wang Daoyuan, as a witness, was allowed to observe. Wang Zhide reported the information he had inquired: "There are rumors that this battle may be a bureau set up by the Palace of the Setting Sun and Wanlingzong for the Nether Sect.
First, the Wanling Sect sent people to drive scattered monsters in the mountains to attack the past Nether Sect caravan, and led the Nether Sect cultivators to encircle and suppress them.
According to a qi-training loose cultivator who participated in this battle, when the spirit worm attacked, he fled to the west and was intercepted by the monks of the Cangyang Palace; he turned and ran east, and was intercepted by the disciples of Wanlingzong. This loose cultivator is very powerful, he broke through the siege and escaped, and temporarily settled in Qinglifang City. These news were heard from him. "
"How's the battle going?" Wang Jize asked.
"According to a foundation-building loose cultivator who escaped, the Sunken Yang Palace and Wanlingzong recruited a large number of loose cultivators, assembled several Jindan monks, twenty or thirty Zifu monks, no less than three hundred foundation-building monks, and Qi training monks. Countless, trying to completely cut off the trade between the Nether Sect and the Yaozu.
However, the Nether Sect has also received the news a long time ago. In addition to the three elders of Zifu on the bright side, there are also four Jindan cultivators in ambush behind the scenes. It's just that there is no large-scale recruitment of loose cultivators, and the number of foundation-building and qi-training cultivators is far less than that of each other.
In addition, the Wanling Sect and the Palace of the Setting Sun are in the dark, and the Nether Sect is in the light. At the beginning, the Netherworld Sect suffered a big loss and was forced to let all the Qi cultivators leave.
In the middle of the enemy's arms, the opponent sent qi training and foundation-building cultivators, strangling a large number of qi training cultivators, the loss of our Wang family was relatively small, and many families were wiped out.
It is said that the monks of the Nether Sect were taken care of, and the specific casualties are unknown.
After the Qi cultivator left, the base-building cultivators and the elders of Zifu started a battle.
The Nether Sect side did not have an advantage in numbers, and suffered a big loss. After that, they retreated while fighting, and retreated to Jinyan City. With the help of the city defense, they could barely hold it.
During the retreat, the Foundation Establishment cultivator suffered more than 100 casualties, and the Zifu cultivator also suffered two injuries. However, the Nether Sect is fighting at home, and the mountain gate is only tens of thousands of miles away from Jinyan City. With the Nether Sect's continuous support, the two sides have returned to the balance of power. "
Everyone fell into contemplation, Wang Daoyuan felt a little wrong, and said to Wang Jize and the elders: "Tai Gong, elders, can I ask Jiu Shu Gong a few questions?"
Wang Jize nodded and said, "Okay, you can ask."
Wang Daoyuan bowed to Wang Zhide and said, "Ninth Uncle, what my grandson wants to ask is, the latest news you got was a few days ago, did a war break out, and what was the situation?"
"The latest news is from three days ago," Wang Zhide stroked his long beard lightly as he pondered. "Three days ago, the two sides were still facing off in Jinyan City, and there was no Jindan cultivator battle."
Wang Daoyuan suddenly realized: "I said why I feel something is wrong, so it is."
Everyone looked puzzled, Wang Shouye pondered for a while, and seemed to realize something.
Wang Jize smiled and said, "Daoyuan, don't be dumb. If you find something, tell it."
Wang Daoyuan pondered for a moment, and said, "This war is going to start in the Nether Sect's territory. It is said that the Ten Thousand Spirit Sect should have a quick battle and leave after the fight. It is reasonable to chase and kill all the way to expand the victory.
However, after several years of planning by the Palace of the Setting Sun and the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, they were so well-prepared and their strength prevailed, but they did not go all out to kill them, but instead allowed the Netherworld Sect to retreat into Jinyan City smoothly. This was the first abnormality.
The second abnormality was that the Netherworld Sect retreated into Jinyan City, and with the city defense formation as its support, Wanlingzong could not take it in a short period of time. According to common sense, they should retreat at this time, because the reinforcements of the Nether Sect may arrive at any time, and when the inside and outside should be combined, the Wanling Sect and the Setting Sun Palace may be wiped out.
The third anomaly, Wanlingzong not only did not retreat,
They also did not attack Jinyan City by force, which may have been a siege of reinforcements, but the Nether Sect reinforcements were not ambushed.
From this, it can be seen that the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect and the Setting Sun Palace may have to play a big game, using the monks outside Jinyan City as bait to catch the big fish of the Nether Sect.
As for how to catch this big fish, there is too little information to tell. "
"What Daoyuan said is true, but Wanlingzong and Cangyang Palace do not have the ability to fish." Wang Shouye continued, "I also thought that the two sects would attract high-level monks from the Netherworld Sect to Jinyan City, and try their best to completely defeat the Netherworld Sect. But as far as I know, the Sun Palace is adjacent to Wei State to the west, and there are many conflicts with Wei State forces; Wanlingzong is adjacent to Song State to the south, and wars often break out with Song State forces.
Therefore, it is impossible for the two sects to do their best to find the bad luck of the Netherworld sect, unless they are not afraid that the forces of Song and Wei will take their old nests away.
The two sects contributed at most half of their strength, the three major sects, the Nether Sect ranked second, and the other two sects were the first and third, each contributing half of their strength, which was similar to the strength of the Nether Sect. The strength is comparable, and the Netherworld Sect is fighting in the local area. It is not bad that the other two sects are not at a loss, and they have no ability to eat the Netherworld Sect.
I reckon that the two sects may be trying to attack the east and west, to contain the main force of the Nether Sect in Jinyan City, and then go to attack other places. As for where the sneak attack is, we don't know where the Nether Sect's key points are. They can't possibly attack the Nether Sect Mountain Gate, right? "
Wang Shouye's remarks were well-founded and convincing, and everyone nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, there was a message from Yufu: I got the news two days ago, the suzerain of the Wanlingzong and the setting sun palace, with five Jindan cultivators, 20 Zifu cultivators, and more than 200 architects. Brother Ji, attacked the gate of the Nether Sect.
Everyone looked at Wang Shouye with strange expressions. Wang Shouye blushed and said, "What, Daoyuan, when will you pay me back the ten jars of red blood brew that you owe me?"
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said, "You always change the subject, are you so rigid?"
"Uncle Twelve, have you opened your mouth? What are you talking about?" Wang Daoxing interjected.
"Okay, it's just a coincidence, let's continue talking about the business." Wang Jize smoothed out Wang Shouye's behalf.
"I can't figure it out, why did the other two sects attack the gate of the Netherworld Sect? The Netherworld Sect has been established for thousands of years, so there is no need to say the background, just protect the mountain, plus the elder Jindan who sits in the gate, the other two sects are considered to be overwhelming. Try your best, you can't win quickly.
There are not even half of the people here, how can they be attacked? It can't be because of Uncle Twelve's mouth, right? "Wang Daoyuan wondered.
"Enough is enough for you! If you mention this again, I'll let you know the methods of Uncle."
Wang Daoyuan glanced at him contemptuously, and said in his heart: Your strongest means is to cheat and drink, what else is there to do?
Seeing Wang Daoyuan's eyes and expressions, Wang Shouye knew what he was thinking. He just wanted to drag him over, beat him violently, and then grab dozens of jars of wine. However, the occasion is not suitable, so bear with it first, and then settle the account later.
