Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 339 Martial Venerable Bi Xuan, Has Yuwen Huaji Gone Mad?
A month later, Yuwen Huaji led an army of 100,000 men northward, heading straight for the Turks.

The Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian set off together. His mission this time was to capture Bi Xuan, the Grandmaster of Turkic Martial Arts, and then help the army to defeat the Turks.

Logically speaking, a Grandmaster would be sufficient to deal with a Martial Venerable like Bi Xuan.

However, Xu Qing did not want this great battle to last too long. Winter was approaching and the weather was bitterly cold. The battle could not be prolonged and had to be ended as soon as possible within a month.

That's when the Evil Emperor made his appearance.

With a powerful expert at the Void Shattering level accompanying the army, even the strongest Turks would find it difficult to withstand the attack.

The other force was led by Li Shimin, who commanded an army of 100,000, with their sights set on Goryeo.

Li Yuanba was the vanguard in this battle, and the Evil King Shi Zhixuan also went along.

Although Goryeo did not have a Grandmaster in charge, Xu Qing still sent Shi Zhixuan along in order to end the war as soon as possible.

All of this considerations are aimed at achieving a swift victory.

The two armies set off, and both the Turks and Goryeo received the news very early on.

Both the Turks and Goryeo lacked confidence in this battle, and even sent messengers to Daxing City on this day.

Both the Turks and Goryeo wanted Xu Qing to stop the war, and both sides were willing to give up gold, silver, cattle and horses in exchange for peace.

The Turks were even willing to hand over the Turks who had crossed the border to kill and plunder grain, hoping to appease Xu Qing's anger and beg him not to send troops.

Xu Qing finished reading the envelope and gave a cold smile. Wanwan, who was standing beside him, also saw the contents of the letter and said:
"They actually admitted their mistakes!"

Over the years, the Turks have frequently crossed the border to plunder grain and killed many Sui Dynasty citizens on the border.

Now he begins to apologize to the Sui Emperor, admitting that he should not have acted that way.

"They didn't realize they were wrong; they were just afraid because they knew they were about to die!"

Xu Qing coldly replied that he had only one sentence for the replies from the two countries: either fight or completely submit to the Sui Dynasty and become its territory.

It is obvious that neither the Turks nor Goryeo would agree to this.

Upon seeing this, both countries completely abandoned the idea of ​​peace talks and focused all their efforts on fighting the Sui army.

Soon, the army arrived at the Turkic border.

The Turkic people had split into two major parts, but under the current severe circumstances, they have united again.

Led by the Martial Venerable Bi Xuan, a massive army of 450,000 was stationed on the border.

The Turkic soldiers were densely packed together, while Yuwen Huaji led an army of 100,000 to confront them.

"They only sent 100,000 troops?"

Upon learning of Yuwen Huaji's troop strength, a cold and angry look appeared on the faces of all the generals in the Turkic camp.

The Sui Dynasty is indeed stronger now, but every time it fought against the Turks, it always required a force far superior to theirs.

Now, the Sui Dynasty has only sent 100,000 troops, which is several times less than their strength.

"They really don't take the Turks seriously at all!"

"It is rumored that the person leading the troops this time is Yuwen Huaji, the patriarch of the Yuwen clan, who is highly valued by the Sui Emperor."

"Hmph, so what if he's Yuwen Huaji? Is he some kind of Grandmaster?!"

"It's just the strength of a Grandmaster, what's so scary about it!"

Many generals did not take Yuwen Huaji seriously.

The burly man sitting on the main seat in the command tent was none other than Martial Venerable Bi Xuan.

He exuded an eerie and inexplicable aura, as if he were a god or demon from the mythology of the Great Plains.

His bronze skin shimmered with a dazzling sheen, his legs were long and slender, his body imposing, and his broad hands were pressed against his chest as he slowly spoke:
"Can we find out which Grandmaster the Sui Dynasty sent to accompany the army this time?"

As Bi Xuan's voice rang out, everyone in the tent fell silent.

Although many Grandmasters in the Central Plains have died, the Grandmasters of the Sui Dynasty still exist.

Martial Venerable Bi Xuan was not concerned about the military strength of the Sui Dynasty; what he needed to deal with were the Grandmasters of the Sui Dynasty.

"Lord Martial Venerable, our spies have not found any trace or information about the Grandmaster."

A man stepped forward and bowed his head to report.

"You mean the Sui Dynasty only dispatched Yuwen Huaji and his 100,000-strong army this time, and there were no other experts?" Martial Venerable Bi Xuan narrowed his eyes.

The man broke out in a cold sweat, and his voice trembled as he said, "According to the intelligence, the evil Shi Zhixuan is following Li Shimin's army to Goryeo."

The Holy Maiden Wanwan of the Yin Gui Sect, along with the ferocious white ape that served Emperor Sui, never left the capital of Daxing.

The Evil King Shi Zhixuan, the Holy Maiden Wanwan of the Yin Gui Sect, and the ferocious white ape beast became famous throughout the world the day Song Que and the others were killed. Everyone knew that these two people and one beast possessed the strength of a Grandmaster.

"This is really interesting. When we conquer Goryeo, which is weaker than our Turks, we have a Grandmaster accompanying us, but when we deal with our Turks, we only have Yuwen Huaji leading an army of 100,000."

"Does the Sui Emperor intend to send these 100,000 troops to their deaths?"

Bi Xuan sneered, "This is completely unreasonable."

The Turks were even stronger than Goryeo.

The Sui Dynasty's many years of battles with the Turks resulted in more defeats than victories.

How could anyone possibly look down on the Turks so much!

Many of the generals present also looked at the man in charge of intelligence, whose back was soaked with sweat from being stared at. He forced a smile and said:
“Lord Martial Venerable, perhaps the Holy Maiden Wanwan of the Yin Gui Sect and the ferocious white ape deliberately concealed their whereabouts, which is why my spies did not discover them.”

Martial Venerable Bi Xuan frowned; this guess was highly probable.

But did the Sui emperor really believe that he could destroy the Turks with just an army of 100,000 and two grandmasters?
If the Sui emperor himself were to lead the expedition, he would find this situation even more troublesome.

After all, the Sui Emperor's military achievements were undeniable, having defeated three Grandmasters in a single battle.

Such formidable strength was something even the proud Bi Xuan had to admit; he was no match for the Sui Emperor.

Because he had fought against both Ning Daoqi and Fu Cailin.

He knew very well that these two were both quite strong, on par with him.

Yet even such a powerful figure was defeated by the Sui Emperor.

Clearly, the Sui Emperor was more powerful than him.

However, the Sui emperor did not personally lead the campaign; instead, he sent a newly promoted grandmaster and a ferocious beast to participate in the great battle.

This really shows that Martial Venerable Bi Xuan was being looked down upon!

"Even so, that so-called Holy Maiden of the Yin Gui Sect is no match for Lord Martial Venerable, and that so-called ferocious white ape is ultimately just a wild beast."

How can you possibly stop the charge of my forty-five armies!

One general said this, and it resonated with the crowd.

Four hundred and fifty thousand versus one hundred thousand, this advantage is obvious in our Turkic territory.

This was a shared thought among many Turkic generals.

Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, war drums resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

The expressions of the many generals inside the tent all changed.

Then a soldier rushed into the tent and reported, "Reporting to Lord Martial Venerable, the Sui Dynasty has launched an attack!"

"What!?"

"Has Yuwen Huaji gone mad?!"

"They've only rested for less than half a day after arriving at the border, and they're already launching an attack!?"

All the generals were stunned.

This is not a decision a normal general would make.

Because the Sui army had traveled a long distance, even though they had rested for a period of time before reaching the border.

However, they had to travel another distance, which also took a toll.

They've only rested for half a day, yet they're already launching an attack so impatiently.

This was completely unexpected by them.

"Assemble the army and prepare for battle!"

Martial Venerable Bi Xuan suddenly stood up, his eyes sharp and extremely cold.

Since Yuwen Huaji was willing to die, he so disregarded Wu Zun Bi Xuan and the Turks.

Then he would make sure that the Sui Dynasty's 100,000-strong army never returned!
