Chapter 190 The Attack of the Golden Dragon of the Ming Dynasty's National Fortune, Changes in Military Formations

When the iron-blooded aura of the People's Salvation Army transformed into the crimson-gold military aura, Yang Zonghan, while still somewhat oblivious to the flow of the nation's fortunes, was able to see most of the situation clearly.

As time passed, after Yang Zonghan completely occupied Datong, the fate of the nation belonging to the Salvation Army spread out in all directions, swallowing up the fate of the Ming Dynasty one by one.

After Wang Zhenyuan and Yang Zonghan entered Xuanfu and occupied it together, the national fortune of the Datong Salvation Army rushed in and quickly spread to Xuanfu, devouring the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, endless purple energy rose, part of which flowed into Wang Zhenyuan and his militia to save the people, and part of which merged into the nation's destiny, beginning to offset the dark and gray resentment among the people.

However, in the end, it was not completely eliminated. It would take the reconstruction of the two prefectures and the thorough implementation of the Salvation Army policy to completely quell the public grievances.

In the eyes of Wang Zhenyuan and his two companions, these changes in power meant that the bright yellow national fortune of the People's Salvation Army was constantly spreading, while the thin national fortune of the Ming Dynasty was being continuously swallowed up, and a portion of it was being transformed into gray-black energy.

After all, the Ming Dynasty and the Salvation Army were enemies. For the Salvation Army, the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty could only be devoured by some pure power and traces of the power of the rules of heaven and earth.

More than anything, there was malice towards the People's Salvation Army, which naturally transformed into a gray and black aura.

However, the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty had already become extremely thin, and even less of it had transformed into gray-black energy.

Moreover, we must not forget that the national fortune and other forces of dynastic evolution, including the resentment of the people, are of a higher quality than those of other national powers.

As quality improves, quantity will naturally decrease.

Therefore, the gray and dark energy transformed by the fate of the Ming Dynasty cannot be said to be almost non-existent, but it was certainly very little.

Other public grievances have also become much less intense.

Overall, the originally soaring black and gray aura quickly became much thinner.

The dark red, iron-blooded aura emanating from Wang Zhenyuan and the others, after being tinged with purple, was now tinged with gold, transforming into a state of interwoven crimson and gold, enveloped in purple.

Originally, all of this was proceeding and transforming in an orderly manner.

However, just as the national fortune of the People's Salvation Army was about to completely envelop Datong and Xuanfu, a golden dragon suddenly rushed out from the direction of the Ming Dynasty, riding a vast expanse of bright yellow national fortune, and crashed violently into Datong and Xuanfu.

"Eh~?"

Seeing this scene, both Wang Zhenyuan and his group, as well as Wang Chao in Xi'an, were astonished.

I never expected such a sudden turn of events.

It is unclear whether this was an instinctive reaction of the national destiny and the dragon's aura, or whether Chongzhen was actually better than Huang Taiji and was able to control the golden dragon of the national destiny to tour the borders and attack.

However, although they did not know what had happened, Wang Zhenyuan and the other two knew that this must be a counterattack from the Ming Dynasty, which was definitely not a good thing for them.

In an instant, everyone activated their array formation techniques, attempting to gather the surrounding militia's morale and collective strength to fight against the suddenly charging golden dragon.

However, when everyone activated their array formation techniques and connected with the surrounding military energy, they suddenly discovered something different.

It seems that because it incorporates the dragon energy of the nation's destiny, the operation of the array's supernatural power can not only communicate with the military energy, but also connect with the nation's destiny.

In that instant, the people they could connect with were no longer just the surrounding militia, but all their subordinates and soldiers within the militia's territory.

"Boom boom boom"

In an instant, beams of crimson-gold light began to rise from Datong and Xuanfu.

Subsequently, crimson-gold light intertwined, forming a crimson-gold net centered on Wang Zhenyuan and the other two, enveloping Datong and Xuanfu.

"Ang~!"

On the other side, a golden dragon soared, carrying wisps of power of rules, and rushed straight towards Datong and Xuanfu. Its claws pressed down menacingly, seemingly wanting to destroy both Datong and Xuanfu in one blow.

"Traitors deserve to die!"

The roar of anger resounded throughout the world, even affecting the real world on a spiritual level.

In an instant, the wind and clouds shifted, vaguely transforming into a divine dragon, which also reached out with one claw towards Datong Xuanfu.

"Who?"

"what sound?"

"Who is speaking?"

The people of both places, the militia, and the Ming soldiers on the Great Wall all vaguely heard a dragon's roar and an angry howl coming from the sky, and they couldn't help but look up.

The moment they looked up, everyone froze on the spot.

A dragon appeared from the southeast, its claws slashing towards Datong Xuanfu, seemingly with an invisible force pressing down upon it.

A sense of unease crept over everyone.

It seems that once the cloud dragon's claws fall, something bad will happen in Datong Xuanfu, and they may even die.

"This"

"Could it be that the Militia's occupation of Datong and Xuanfu has brought about a backlash against the fate of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Haha, the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty."
When the Qing army was rampaging and massacring and abusing the people outside the Great Wall, why did the fate of the Ming Dynasty not change?

Now, we have been saved by the People's Army, but is the fate of the Ming Dynasty about to destroy us?

"Heh, how can the Ming Dynasty, which doesn't care about its people, expect us to be loyal to the country?"

In an instant, the entire Datong Xuanfu was filled with public resentment, and an endless gray and dark atmosphere soared into the sky.

Under normal circumstances, the national fortunes of both regions would, if not be completely devastated, certainly become extremely weak.

But at this moment, the endless gray-black energy seemed to change its nature, and instead instantly merged into the nation's destiny.

As the nation's fortunes surged and instantly enveloped Datong and Xuanfu, they were also tinged with gray and blood, imbuing the nation's fortunes with a strong sense of aggression.

That was the manifestation of the hostility and dissatisfaction of the general public towards the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, while some harbored resentment and hostility, others were filled with excitement and anticipation. Most of them were former high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

When the People's Salvation Army occupied Datong and Xuanfu, it continued to implement the same policies as before.

Naturally, a large number of high-ranking officials and nobles were brought down to their lowest ranks.

They longed for the arrival of the Ming army to reclaim their lost territory and for them to regain their former glory.

Seeing this situation now fills me with excitement and anticipation.

However, the little force they generated seemed so insignificant in the face of the national salvation army and the vast majority of people, and was instantly suppressed without causing the slightest disturbance.

On the Badaling Great Wall, the Ming soldiers stationed there were slightly taken aback when they saw the cloud dragon appear in the sky. Then they were overjoyed, their morale soared, and even their iron-blooded aura became much purer and stronger.

Their Great Ming is indeed the legitimate dynasty, and those who betray the Great Ming will inevitably be punished.

Wu Xiang, Cao Wenzhao, and the others looked at the cloud dragon in the sky, recalling the faint dragon roar and angry howl they had heard earlier. They couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression, their brows furrowing slightly as they pondered with solemn expressions.

Could it be that this was done by the Emperor, or rather, His Majesty?

After all, with the sounds of dragons roaring and clouds, their first thought was naturally of the emperor, who held the title of "Son of Heaven."

Unconsciously, the slight pride and a few other thoughts that arose in everyone because they had cultivated their vital energy were instantly suppressed.

His expression changed from solemn to smiling, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes. He wondered what would happen after Yunlong's attack, and whether he would kill all the militia.

Meanwhile, the National Salvation Army, having absorbed a large amount of public resentment and hostility towards the Ming Dynasty, became aggressive and prepared to directly launch an attack to strangle the golden dragon of the Ming Dynasty's national destiny.

The array formation techniques employed by Wang Zhenyuan, Yang Zonghan, and Zhou Junsheng were fully activated and unleashed. A fierce and domineering military aura, filled with murderous intent, rose up and began to confront the golden dragon of the Ming Dynasty's national destiny that was charging towards them.

As the military formation fully unfolded, the crimson-gold military aura intertwined into a net. The offensive characteristics contained within the national destiny, along with a large amount of offensive power, were instantly transferred into the military aura net, and the national destiny was restored to a pure bright yellow.

Within a nation, the military is the primary force representing both internal defense and external offense; such offensive power naturally aligns better with the spirit of the army.

Engaging in battle with foreign enemies is the duty of the army.

Under normal circumstances, the national destiny, which represents the foundation of the nation, is not directly used in battle, but is transferred to the military. The offensive power is naturally transferred to the military spirit.

More often than not, the fate of a nation serves to amplify or suppress its power.

"boom!"

The military's aura, after being infused with a large amount of offensive power, instantly surged several times over, with beams of crimson-gold light almost solidifying.

It is both subtle and indistinct, and even manifest in reality.

"Huh? What's that in the sky?"

"It looks like a big net."

"Huh? Could it be that this giant net is intercepting that dragon?"

"It seems like it's not impossible."

Isn't it said that the Heavenly King who saved the People's Army was the Heavenly Emperor descended to earth?
Perhaps this is the Heavenly Emperor protecting us?

"Yes, yes, that's right, it must be the Heavenly Emperor protecting us."

For a moment, everyone looked at the sky with anticipation at the faintly visible crimson-gold net, hoping it could stop the cloud dragon.

Meanwhile, on the Badaling Great Wall, Wu Xiang, Cao Wenzhao, and the others frowned again, wondering if the cloud dragon could break through the crimson gold net and deliver its final attack.

They, too, had cultivated true qi.

However, they still could not see any power such as the destiny of the nation; they could only see the cloud dragon and the faintly visible crimson-gold net that blocked it.

To date, apart from those who have merged with the divine status and the rulers of various nations, no one else has been able to directly perceive the fate of a nation.

On the other side, after all the rescue armies from the two prefectures formed a military formation, Wang Zhenyuan and the other two exchanged glances and immediately formed a small Three Talents Formation, drawing upon immense power to crash into the golden dragon of national destiny that was charging towards them.

"boom!"

The violent impact immediately triggered a series of booming sounds.

This voice has even subtly penetrated into reality from a spiritual level.

"Rumble"

"Crack!"

A series of deep, muffled sounds rang out, like thunderclaps exploding out of nowhere, echoing continuously in everyone's ears.

"Is this... divine wrath?"

"Is it just because we joined the People's Salvation Army?"

For a time, many people began to doubt themselves.

"No, no, no, how could it be because we joined the People's Salvation Army?"
This must be because the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack the territory of the Salvation Army, which aroused the wrath of Heaven.”

"Yes, yes, the People's Salvation Army was established by the Heavenly Emperor himself."
This must be because the Ming Dynasty failed to understand the will of Heaven, thus incurring its wrath.

For a moment, countless people watched with bated breath as the seemingly stalemated cloud dragon and the crimson net awaited the final outcome.

On a spiritual level, the golden dragon representing the fate of the Ming Dynasty roared incessantly, launching continuous attacks on Datong Xuanfu.

However, faced with that crimson-gold net, He seemed so powerless; no matter how hard He struck, He could not budge it in the slightest.

Instead, it was itself that was constantly being thrown back, its golden scales flying everywhere, transforming into streams of dragon-like energy.
