TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1520: Chapter 590: Strategy of Dividing Forces Chapter 1520: Chapter 590: Strategy of Dividing Forces Changqing Mountain.

“Nearly a thousand years have passed, and I didn’t expect to return here so soon.”

When Lu Yuan led his army and arrived at this location, looking at the towering mountain piercing the clouds, he couldn’t help but express his emotions.

By then, the battle for Su Yun Country had already ended.

Facing his and five avatars’ joint attack, and being cut off from the formation method, preventing any further harnessing of its power to enhance their cultivation.

Suffered from the backlash of secret techniques, and reverting to his initial Early Earth Immortal state, Zhang Xiuzhu faced the siege of six equally strong cultivators and naturally couldn’t create any significant disturbance.

After desperately resisting for a short moment, he was demolished by several Divine Powers, not even a trace of his body remained.

With his death, the remaining Changqing cultivators from Su Yun Country were also at the end of their strength.

Eventually, with the Commander dead and the morale of the troops greatly shaken, Lu Yuan led his avatars to personally step in and annihilate them completely.

Then, without taking time to rest or tally the military achievements, he only left behind the avatar Qing Guanzi to handle the aftermath here.

He himself urgently led five thousand cultivators, along with the remaining avatars, rushing towards Changqing Mountain.

Now, having arrived here, less than a Timing had passed since Huang Xuan and others had captured Changqing Mountain.

In less than a Timing, Taiping Dao had accomplished the feat of capturing Changqing Mountain and laying siege to Zhang Xiuzhu, the speed of which was remarkably fast.

Beside him, Che Shidao shook his head, “With the speed of our accumulation, it took nearly a thousand years to pacify Changqing Mountain, which was actually somewhat slow.

If we really wanted speed, we could have attempted this three or four hundred years ago.

However, to be safe, we waited until now.”

Lu Yuan smiled upon hearing this, “Indeed, everything is for the sake of being cautious.

Therefore, although we have now captured Changqing Mountain, this Northern Expedition battle cannot yet be considered fully settled.

Yang Jihua is still leading the army outside.

Those from the Nine Provinces who hear of our victory, I do not know how they will react.

To be prudent, it is not yet time to be pleased with ourselves; we must quickly solidify our gains before the enemy can react.

That way, even if they want to do something, we can respond at our leisure.”

“The main body speaks wisely, now is indeed the time to strike swiftly against the slow.”

At this time, Huang Xuan, who had previously stayed behind guarding the mountain, also arrived and immediately said upon hearing their conversation, “During the Timing I was guarding, some Changqing cultivators from within the Changqing Country realized that something was amiss here and came to the mountain to investigate.

Although I moved quickly and extinguished all cultivators who entered the mountain, leaving no survivors,

just that alone does not guarantee that the news won’t continue to be concealed.

The two thousand Changqing cultivators within Chang Country will soon realize something is wrong and discover the truth.

If these two thousand disperse, they could be our biggest hidden threat and risk in ruling the Changqing Domain in the future.

If we handle it improperly and let them escape to outside the territory, it might become another Jiuzhou Immortal Gate.

Our urgent priority should be to act first while they are still uncertain of the truth and preemptively eliminate them.

Then we can divide a fraction of our troops to sweep through Eastern Territory and Northern Territory, taking control of the territory first.

The main body will continue leading the main army towards Northern Territory, to join the forces laying siege to Yang Jihua’s troops.

With these concurrent actions, Changqing will be extinguished with no possibility of a comeback.

Moreover, the lands of Northern Territory and Eastern Territory will also fall under our control, solidifying the grand situation of Changqing.

Even if those from the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect harbor grievances, facing a situation already set, they will be unable to resist.”

Hearing this suggestion, Lu Yuan clapped his hands, “Well said, we indeed need to act swiftly now.”

Saying this, he paced two steps on the spot, deep in thought for a while before saying, “Since we need to split our forces in two directions, targeting Yang Jihua as well as these territories of Eastern and Northern Territories, we will certainly need a considerable number of troops.

Having just fought the battle of Su Yun Country, the original ten thousand troops of the Northern Expedition I led have already suffered heavy losses.

After a roll call, besides the five thousand cultivators I led to Changqing Mountain, only at most three thousand remain, led by Qing Guanzi to handle the aftermath in Su Yun Country.

Moreover, these three thousand are mostly injured, and without several months to a year, they will not be able to recover to their peak condition.

A single battle caused the loss of two thousand and wounded three thousand.

That three thousand in Su Yun Country still needs to divide forces to occupy the Three Nations there, clean up the remnants of Changqing Immortal Sect, and handle the deities of the Netherworld Court.

Relying on those three thousand wounded to accomplish these tasks is already quite difficult, and Qing Guanzi is under great pressure, so let’s not withdraw any more troops from his command.

Those three thousand should remain in Su Yun Country.”

Lu Yuan made arrangements, and all the numerous avatars nodded in agreement.

The battle of Su Yun Country, while appearing exhilarating and thorough, required a tremendously heavy price.

To mention nothing else, just the period when Lu Yuan, in an attempt to deceive Zhang Xiuzhu, was still forcing a fight despite being on the verge of retreat, unknowingly cost the lives of so many disciples on the battlefield.

This time, the army of over ten thousand directly suffered more than half in casualties, much of which was due to this cost.

Even now, the five thousand at Changqing Mountain were barely selected from that group of exhausted troops as capable fighters.

Having picked out those able to fight and wanting to task the three thousand wounded in Su Yun Country with achievements such as expansion and conquest would be excessively harsh, treating people as less than human.
