Chapter 559: 266: Initial Victory and Seeking Support



Hearing these words, then looking at the rising flames in the distance, and the faint sounds of shouting and battle drums that can still be heard, Li River and the Great Witch Sacrifice finally accepted this reality.

But then came new questions.

“Who are the enemies? How many of them are there?”

As the Commander, Li River asked this question first.

“The men are wearing those eastern Yang people’s clothing, and the flags they carry have a Chu character on them, so it might be the people from the eastern Chu State. As for how many there are…”

The reporting messenger was now slightly steadier, his heart full of terror as he relayed what he had seen and then thought, “It was so unexpected that General Xiong Wu doesn’t know this temporarily.

But looking at the vast number of Chu people when they left, there must be at least ten thousand. And we still don’t know if these are just the vanguard of those Chu people.”

The messenger reported hesitantly and somewhat uncertainly.

“Eastern Yang Chu people? A vanguard of ten thousand people?”

Upon hearing this information, the shock in Li River’s heart grew even greater.

Even some fear had welled up in his mind.

Had the Eastern Yang people, who had been at peace for a thousand years, finally become restless and started to target the Chilih people at this time?

When thinking about the nearby Qiang, Man, Miao, Yue and other tribes that had gradually been conquered by the Eastern Yang people, and considering the current fate of these tribes, a chilling feeling would not leave his heart.

No wonder he felt this way.

It was indeed that during the past thousands of years, since the Eastern Yang people passed Rivers and landed in Jiangnan, there had been too many tribes that had been conquered and slaughtered in the entire Yangzhou area.

Even though they, the Yi People of the Southwest, had never had a direct war of extermination with the Eastern Yang people before,

But just watching those conquered tribes one by one, watching the territory of Eastern Yang people expand steadily, and being the potential next target of the Southwest Yi people, how could their hearts not be filled with fear and dread?

And now, the stuff their hearts had been fearing and dreading had finally happened in reality.

With this huge shock and fear, Li River looked towards the Great Witch Sacrifice.

Seeing the messenger of the gods with the same expression on his face as his own, the Great Witch Sacrifice clenched his teeth and said, “The appearance of the Eastern Yang people here has broken our thousand-year tacit agreement with them.

Those who come are not good, and they are here to take our Chilih people and seize our Yi people’s land.

This is a war of races, a battle of survival.”

After the shock, the Divine Palace Witch Doctor immediately defined the nature of the battle, and then quickly said, “Grand General, although we don’t know how many Chu people have come, since they dare to come, they must be fully prepared.

You immediately dispatch troops to rescue Xiong Wu first, and hold back those Chu people first.

As for the siege here…”

The Great Witch Sacrifice looked at the distant battle, which was still fierce and not affected by the fire in the rear, and gritted his teeth: “Stop for now, and make plans after finding out more about those Chu people.

Now that there are outsiders on the scene, this Stone City cannot be taken.”

Yes, that’s right, it can’t be taken anymore.

Although he had no experience in leading war, as a Divine Palace Witch Doctor, he still possessed a good deal of insight and wisdom.

At this time, he could naturally judge that with the presence of a third force of unknown strength lurking around, his side could no longer attack Stone City as wholeheartedly and unreservedly as before.

Those brave warriors should not be wasted in the bloody and brutal siege battle right now.

Their lives and bravery should be kept to withstand Eastern Yang people, who had begun to invade and were even more powerful.

In this context, Stone City was no longer of much importance.

Although the Great Witch Sacrifice did not yet know if the foreign force within the city was connected to the Eastern Yang people suddenly attacking them from the outside and whether or not the two sides were one,

At this point whether Stone City could be captured or not was no longer of great significance.

Even if it were taken, so what?

Could they really rely on this devastated city in the face of the massive invasion of the Eastern Yang people to resist the invasion after exhausting their precious strength to take down this solid city?

That was unrealistic.

So at this time, the Great Witch Sacrifice made this arrangement.

After hearing his words, Li River understood and nodded: “I will arrange it now.”

As his words fell, he turned to his trusted general, taking out a tiger talisman from his bosom: “Shi Hu, you immediately lead thirty thousand soldiers to rescue Xiong Wu. Try to probe the strength of those Chu people and find out how many of them there are and what their purpose is.”

A burly general at the side stepped out and replied: “Yes, sir.”

After finishing speaking, the general accepted the tiger talisman and hurried away.

The Camp in the distance that was attacked and set on fire by the Chu people was their army’s easternmost flank, stationed with about ten thousand troops, led by a man named Xiong Wu.

If it were as the messenger who had reported it earlier said, with the attacking Chu people numbering ten thousand, then how long Xiong Wu could hold on while being suddenly attacked and facing a fire attack was indeed a problem.

Most importantly, irrespective of whether Xiong Wu can be rescued or not,

The most important thing is to block the momentum of those Chu people first and not let them take advantage of this situation and attack all at once, breaking through the entire army.
