Chapter 417 Hundreds of Families and Kings

No one could have imagined that the situation would turn out like this after the various schools of thought took action. Although the Qin army was defeated, the pressure seemed to be relieved a lot. They fought against the armies of various countries led by the various schools of thought in Han, Zhou, Zheng, and Wei. The two sides fought fiercely. Although Qin suffered heavy losses, it did not show any signs of defeat. The battlefield began to enter a stalemate.

In the Jixia Academy of Qi, the sage Zeng Shen listened to the arguments of the major families below. There was no expression on his face. Since the Hundred Schools of Thought helped the Central Plains countries to fight against Qin, the anti-Qin sentiment of the major families in Qi suddenly weakened. Now there are not many people who advocate continuing to invest masters in Wei and other places. Everyone hopes that the various schools of thought will fight with Qin for a while.

After all, if Qin is defeated, the situation in the world will change drastically, and the countries will still rely on strength to redivide their spheres of influence.

"The various schools of thought are mostly used for strange strategies. Qin seems to have suffered heavy losses, but its main combat power has not been lost. If we let Wei's situation go, as long as Qin persists for three years, Wei and other countries' families will inevitably be slowly conquered by Qin. By then, it will be too late for us to take action!" The head of the Luo family looked at the heads of the various families with a relaxed look on their faces and couldn't help but speak. Their Qi State actively advocated attacking one of the Qin families.

"Brother Luo! There are hundreds of masters of the various schools of thought. Qin is not so easy to be defeated, and the various schools of thought are not so easy to deal with. I heard that Song has gathered more than a dozen masters to prepare to attack Zheng. How can the Qin soldiers be opponents at that time? Qin is our biggest enemy, but we don't have to be at the forefront now. Why don't we wait first? After all, it is not so easy for Qin to attack our Qi State." A head of a third-grade family said, and many people nodded gently without speaking.

"The scholars of the various schools of thought are not comparable to the army. The Confucianists have used up their Haoran Qi and it will take more than half a year to recover. The Taoist magic array will become less and less effective if used too much. The Legalists and Mohists are not good at attacking. The Miscellaneous School, the Agricultural School, the Yin-Yang School, and the Famous School have limited effects on the battlefield. The Diplomats can command troops but they mostly serve the Qin State, not to mention the Fa. If we do not help the various schools of thought, they may be able to temporarily suppress the Qin soldiers, but the relationship between the various schools of thought and other countries may turn from good to bad!" The head of the Luo family continued.

Everyone looked at the sage Zeng Shen on the stage. There was also a Confucian sage sitting here! In fact, the kings of Qi State did not like to be controlled by the sage Zeng Shen, but Qi State did not have a person who could support the entire country to replace the King of Qi, so they had no choice but to obey Zeng Shen first.

The relationship between the various schools of thought and the ruler is delicate. Everyone knows that their relationship cannot last. Sage Zeng Shen controlled Qi to develop Confucianism, and they wanted to gain greater benefits and strengthen their own family. Perhaps the contradiction between the hundreds of schools of thought and the aristocratic families would erupt to a certain extent, and their relationship would not be able to be maintained.

Everyone looked at Sage Zeng Shen, and when they saw him keeping silent, everyone quieted down.

"The strength of Qin lies in Qin Zheng! Qin Zheng is not far from the last step of strength, and he is also a military sage, who can borrow the power of the entire Qin army." Sage Zeng Shen said lightly, and everyone listened quietly.

"The Qin State regarded the various schools of thought as obstacles to the development of the human race. Didn't they know that the Qin State was founded by Shang Yang, the great master of the Legalist School, and was stronger than the various schools of thought, the Zongheng School, and the King of Qin was the only sage of the military school. How could the world's development be without the various schools of thought?

If the Central Plains countries ignored the wars of Wei, Zheng and other countries, the Qin State's elite soldiers were all military students, and they could easily resolve their own karma. In less than three years, the Qin State's combat power would only become stronger and stronger. By then, all the kings in the world would be subjects, and everyone would live under the tyranny of the Qin State!" After saying this, the sage Zeng Shen closed his eyes again.

The biggest confidence of the Qin government in wanting to unify the world lies here. Many Qi State rulers nodded when they heard this. Now the best way is to eliminate the Qin soldiers in Han, Zhou, Wei, Zheng and other countries as soon as possible, which is equivalent to greatly reducing the strength of the Qin State.

But the more this time, the more ideas everyone has. Everyone wants to be the final winner, and no one is willing to consume all the troops on the Qin State.

After Zeng Shen said these words to the heads of the major families in Qi, he rarely attended classes. He never went out of the Jixia Academy, as if he no longer cared about the war in the Central Plains. At this time, the major families in Qi were divided into several factions. Some advocated sending elite troops to fight Qin, while others advocated taking the opportunity to develop Qi in a stable manner. In the end, everyone was divided into many factions.

Seeing this situation, some families moved south with their families, intending to build a large defense line against the Qin army in Lu, some stayed in Linzi City to start training, and some even fled north with their families to Xiacheng, Gaoliu County.

Qin State disintegrated most of the enemies in one move, and Qi State began to split for this. Some bad voices were also heard in Zhao State, but they were quickly suppressed by Zhao Dan.

The total population of Qin was less than five million, and it had already invested more than one million troops in the central part of the Central Plains. Chu fought with Qin's elite soldiers at Wuguan Pass. Chu had been attacking for several months without breaking through the pass. More than 100,000 of its own soldiers were killed, and more than 50,000 Qin soldiers were injured. At this time, many voices appeared in Chu, asking Chu not to put its troops on consumption with Qin.

The King of Chu wanted to continue to send troops from the country to capture Qin's Wuguan Pass, because at this time Qin was almost unable to hold on. A large number of Qin's elite soldiers were killed, and the auxiliary soldiers could not resist the attack of Chu's elite. However, the major families of Chu were unwilling to consume Qin again, and they had even begun to shift their focus to trade development with neighboring countries.

The Central Plains entered a rare period of balance. Everyone was waiting for the Qin soldiers to be consumed by the various schools of thought in the central part of the Central Plains, and then everyone sat together to discuss the matter of dividing the fruits.

Zheng State, Xinzheng City

Since Sun Miao dealt a heavy blow to the Qin army last time, causing Bai Qi to lead the retreat in a panic, more and more students from the Hundred Schools of Thought gathered in Xinzheng City. The gathering of the six great masters in Xinzheng City made it a bridgehead against the Qin soldiers.

In the Sun Mansion, the various schools of thought have occupied the large and small courtyards of the Sun family. Since the death of their ancestor, the Sun family has never laughed or spoken again.

A battle report came, and a Legalist master took the battle report and smiled.

"Everyone, Zheng City has been taken. Two Confucian masters took action and killed many Qin generals. Now most of the land of Zheng has been recovered by us. King Zheng is leading a 100,000-strong army to Hulao Pass. When Hulao Pass is taken, the Qin soldiers in the entire Zheng country will be trapped!" The Legalist master laughed.

"Is my old friend Wenbin okay? Where is he now?" A Confucian master asked at this time.

"Wen Juzi killed many Qin Xiantians, and the karma in his body could not be suppressed and he has returned to Chen State!" The master was elected by everyone as the representative of the anti-Qin campaign, and he fought against Qin together with Zheng State.

Everyone was silent when they heard this. A month ago, there were more than 6,000 students from the Hundred Schools who responded to their anti-Qin campaign. In just one month, more than 2,000 people had to withdraw from the Qin attack team because of karma, including five masters.

Only when they really faced the Qin soldiers, they knew how tenacious the Qin soldiers were. Now there are less than 100,000 Qin soldiers in Zheng State, but Zheng State has united with many countries to fight 300,000 troops, and there are hundreds of people above the Xiantian realm. They have to pay a heavy price for every victory they achieve.

As time passed slowly, the threat of Qin State seemed to be diluted by everyone. The war in the central region of the Central Plains was constantly being spread everywhere, and the figures of the family could be seen in many places.

The family did not participate in all the battles this time. They walked through the streets and alleys, telling their stories in teahouses, restaurants and other places. The story of Gaoliu County and the Hua family began to be known by the people of the Central Plains. Everyone knew that it was a free, rich, beautiful and tolerant place, which made more aristocratic families and clans willing to move to Gaoliu County to settle down.

On July 3, the Hua family's wedding team returned to the Ordos tribe. It took them several months to get from the Ujumchin tribe to the Ordos tribe with a huge team of more than 200,000 people and nearly 10,000 horse carriages. The average distance was 200 miles per day, most of which were women and children who were married as dowries. This was already their fastest speed.

When they arrived at the Ordos tribe, the Hua family's business delegation had arrived this year. After arranging everything, Hua Kai brought 20,000 newly freed civilians, 18,000 highly qualified slaves selected in the Ordos tribe, and more than 20,000 other slaves to form an army of 50,000 people, bid farewell to the 50,000 Xiongnu troops who went to the Ujumchin tribe with him to welcome the bride, and drove towards Gaoliu County together.

There were also 210,000 people. This time, because there were more slaves and civilians, their speed of travel became slower and slower every day. Hua Kai and Wu Ren Tu Ya did not return to Gao Liu County first. They followed the large group and walked slowly in the team. Every time they passed a tribe, these tribes would invite them. This was a recognition of the strength of the Hua family and a custom on the grassland. Newcomers entering the tribe could bring good luck to everyone.

That night, Hua Kai learned in the [Family Space] that the cattle and sheep given to Wu Ren Tu Ya as a dowry tribe were ready. As long as they returned to Bao Yuguan, all the livestock would be delivered.

There were 600,000 cattle and 3.1 million sheep in total, which was only one-fifth of the livestock in Gao Liu County. Half of these livestock were the property of the Hua family at the foot of Xiacheng, and the other half were given by various affiliated families. The Hua family wanted to give money, but the families said they would not accept it.

When everyone in the space left, Hua Kai saw Wu Ren Tu Ya looking at him. Although the two of them did not live together at night, they always had the opportunity to go to [Wu Jing Zhai] to be intimate at night.

Half a month had passed since the last storm between the two. Wuren Tuya's mental power had long been restored. After three months of hard work, the [Pregnant Spirit Pill] was only one step away from being full of mental power and willpower. Hua Kai saw Wuren Tuya disappear, and he closed the permission for others to enter [Enlightenment Hall] at will.

Wuren Tuya had been with Hua Kai for the past three months. Every time the two souls entered that state of harmony, Wuren Tuya's willpower increased very quickly. Now, [Ice Willpower] has unknowingly reached 62% of the fourth level. The half-step foundation building willpower is all over the body, and it is possible to build a foundation at any time.

When the two entered that state again, Hua Kai could feel that the energy of the [Pregnant Spirit Pill] in Wuren Tuya's body was getting bigger and bigger. When the last bit of willpower was replenished, the [Ice Willpower] in the [Pregnant Spirit Pill] actually operated by itself under the action of powerful mental power, forming a unique mental operation method, just like the will cycle of the foundation building state.

Hua Kai looked at the lazy Wu Ren Tu Ya. The power of [Ice Will] in Wu Ren Tu Ya had already started to operate on its own. She was already building a foundation!

"Kailang, I seem to have built a foundation! I feel that [Pregnant Spirit Pill] is slowly disappearing... It's gone!" Wu Ren Tu Ya looked at Hua Kai and said.

"Maybe you are pregnant with our baby! This [Pregnant Spirit Pill] is the nutrient for our baby's growth. Pay more attention to it recently!" Hua Kai looked at Wu Ren Tu Ya and said.

"Well, I know! We will have the wedding in September. Will my belly be very big by then?" Wu Ren Tu Ya said and felt that Hua Kai was suddenly in a daze.

"Kailang, what's wrong with you!" Wu Ren Tu Ya asked.

"There is another great novelist!" Hua Kai said softly.
