Chapter 192 The Power Behind the Hu People
When the two armies fought, in terms of military tactics, weapons and equipment, and the training level of the soldiers, the Northern Frontier Army was naturally stronger. But in a world with cultivators, many things are unreasonable.
Even if the cultivators cannot directly attack the army, with the cultivators' reconnaissance power, it is like turning on the whole map. No matter what kind of military tactics, it will not play much role when facing the cultivators.
With the defeat of the second senior brother Lu Yongjin, Zhang Weiyu's army also retreated a hundred miles to set up camp.
When Feng Tianzong received the news from the second senior brother, he was also surprised. The second senior brother Lu Yongjin was a little frustrated in this defeat. The opponent was obviously only two foundation-building cultivators, but he summoned two golden elixir-stage monsters in a very unnatural way, which was simply unreasonable.
"Madam, you have some knowledge of the major sects in the cultivation world. I only heard that there are monsters behind this Hu people. What kind of magical power is it to be able to summon a Jindan-stage monster beyond its level?" Feng Tianzong, who couldn't figure it out, simply went to ask Tai Shi Mingzhen.
After hearing about this, Tai Shi Mingzhen just smiled and said, "How can my husband be smart all his life and confused for a moment?
Since you also know that there are monsters behind this Hu people, it is obvious that this is the big monster behind the Hu people, who is dissatisfied with you. Daxia is fighting for the dragon, you sent troops to the grassland to fight for the autumn wind, and now you have even fought to the other party's nest with great fanfare. How can they not be angry?"
Feng Tianzong blinked his eyes, it seems to be the truth. Daxia is fighting for the dragon, and the disciples of the major sects have no problem fighting in Daxia, but leading troops to the grassland to rob is a bit unruly, and they will naturally take action.
"Madam, can you tell me what kind of power is behind the Hu people? Why is there a country controlled by monsters in the mortal world of our human race?" Feng Tianzong asked. He only knew that the power behind the Hu people was a big monster. But he couldn't figure out why the major sects in the cultivation world would let a big monster control the human race. He didn't know what kind of cause and effect was behind it.
"My husband, you don't know that in the current world of immortal cultivation, we humans are naturally respected, but the major sects are fighting openly and secretly, and there are many conflicts in secret for the sake of competing for territory.
There are also two major forces of monsters. There are also some powerful monsters who occupy the mountains as kings. Both major forces of monsters have great monsters in the God Transformation period sitting in charge, and many major sects dare not provoke them. They are afraid that they will fight with monsters and both will suffer losses, and finally the opponent will take advantage.
This has caused no one to dare to provoke the monster forces, but instead they are rampant. So the major sects discussed and united with the Demon King of one of the major monster forces, and incorporated them into the sect system.
This monster force is considered the Demon King Sect, because this Demon King is not ambitious and is unwilling to be an enemy of the human race. , it can be regarded as a reconciliation with the major sects of the human race.
The method of cultivation of this demon emperor is unique, and it can accommodate the power of human faith for its own use. Therefore, among the sixteen human countries, there is the country of Hu people.
This country worships the demon emperor, and the cultivators of the Hu people also practice the demon method passed down by the demon emperor. They can borrow the power of the demon emperor to control the demon beasts and command the demons.
It seems to be somewhat similar to the Beast Taming Sect to outsiders, but in fact, the core is very different. The cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect are mainly human and command the demon beasts. The Demon Emperor Sect is mainly based on demon beasts. The cultivators worship the Demon Emperor. When fighting, they order the demon beasts to fight according to the order of the Demon Emperor. They need to pay a large amount of offerings and regularly sacrifice to the Demon Emperor. It can be said to be borrowed power. "Tai Shi Mingzhen explained to Feng Tianzong.
"I understand. This is a typical case of pulling a group to fight a group in the world of cultivating immortals. This Demon Emperor Sect is the one that was won over by the major sects in the world of cultivating immortals. Then the other demon clan force is probably the one that needs to be attacked?" Feng Tianzong said clearly.
"That's true. The Demon King Sect doesn't eat humans, so the major sects think they can be won over. In addition, the Demon King Sect also has connections with the Beast Taming Sect. Those high-level monsters also like to let their cubs practice with the elite disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.
However, another major monster force, the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain, is not so friendly to the human race. They act recklessly and enjoy eating humans. They think that monsters eating humans can more easily open their spiritual wisdom, and are the focus of the major sects.
It has been driven out of the human race's sphere of influence. The Demon God Sect is a sect that exists specifically to deal with the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain. Because the Demon God Sect's main purpose is to refine monsters into their own clones, it is hostile to all monsters. Even the Demon King Sect, which has a relatively harmonious relationship with the human race, is at odds with the Demon God Sect." Tai Shi Mingzhen introduced to Feng Tianzong.
"So this incident is actually the Demon King Sect expressing dissatisfaction with me?" After Feng Tianzong learned about the forces behind the Hu people, he also knew the cause and effect of this incident.
His innate magical power is to collect taxes, and he needs as many people as possible under his command. The demon king also needs people to believe in and worship him. So he also needs enough people.
The human race has been changing the world from time to time, and there are human cultivators to help develop, so both the population and materials are far beyond the Hu people in the grassland.
As for the Hu people in the grassland, because there are demon beasts behind them, it is impossible to let the demon beasts help the Hu people improve their productivity. Even if the IQ of the high-level demons is not inferior to that of humans, the demon beasts at that level will not come to help the Hu people develop production.
So the Hu people in the grassland follow the thinking of the demon beasts, the law of the jungle, and if there is not enough food, they will go south to plunder, and if there is not enough population, they can also go south to plunder.
"My husband, this matter should really stop here. After all, the demon king behind the Hu people is also a great demon in the spirit transformation stage, and he is not so easy to provoke.
Anyway, we have actually made a profit at present, and the benefits have been obtained. There is no need to do things to the extreme. The most important thing at present is still the dragon competition in Daxia." Tai Shi Mingzhen persuaded.
Feng Tianzong also knew this truth. Things have priorities. Obviously, now is not the time to confront the demon king sect. It is better to stop while you are ahead.
Feng Tianzong did not hesitate and directly sent a message to his second senior brother Lu Yongjin, asking him to notify the army to withdraw.
Wang Mingyuan has been counting the harvest of this trip to the north grassland. Not to mention other things, the population alone has been plundered for more than 50,000, not to mention the old, weak, sick and disabled who froze to death along the way and could not keep up with the team and were left behind.
The process of transporting back is also a screening process. The old, weak, sick and disabled are eliminated by the weather. The captives who can be transported back are all strong laborers, and they can generate value when they come back.
