Chapter 268: Chapter 141: The Miao Family Snatches Food from the Tiger’s Mouth, Testing Medicine Again_1
“It seems there’s another turn of fate mixed into Changping Prefecture…”
After studying the fate of Changping Prefecture for a long time,
Tang Jian said this.
“You mean, other family forces might come to snatch Changping Prefecture?”
Luo Yong’s brows involuntarily furrowed.
Tang Jian shook his head and whispered, “Whether they’ll join in halfway or snatch it away, that remains unknown…”
However, whether they join or snatch,
it doesn’t seem to be good news for the Qingshi City Luo Family.
…
A moment later,
Luo Yong and Tang Jian returned to the commander’s tent.
They waited silently for news from the Bai Family.
Changping Prefecture, this domain, had already been regarded as their own by the Luo Family.
Therefore, no matter what happened in the meantime,
attacking Changping Prefecture, taking over this domain… It was something the Luo Family had to do.
…
As time passed,
several days flew by in the blink of an eye.
After the Luo Family and the Bai Family had made all the necessary preparations,
the Bai Family of Changping Prefecture finally made its move.
Mobilizing an army of more than two hundred thousand armored warriors, they launched an attack on the Huang and Chen Families within Changping Prefecture.
In the face of the Bai Family’s despicable act,
the Huang Family and the Chen Family were both anxious and furious.
However, when the Huang and Chen Families wanted to first deal with the Bai Family,
those fifty thousand elite armored troops amassed outside of Changping Prefecture, controlled by Luo Yong,
were also initiating a frenzied assault on the vast Changping Prefecture.
This made the Huang and Chen Families of Changping Prefecture somewhat overwhelmed.
In just three days, the Chen and Huang Families had directly lost about a third of their territory.
And within these mere three days,
the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family’s attack on Changping Prefecture,
as well as their seizure of a third of Changping Prefecture’s territory, also spread throughout the entire Da Feng Dynasty.
The prefectures located far away merely observed the actions of the Luo Family from a distance,
in other words, they were just watching the excitement.
After all, the distance was too great.
The family forces within those prefectures, even if they wanted to get involved, didn’t have the qualifications.
Thus, they could only watch the excitement.
However, some of the cities near Changping Prefecture
also began to get restless at the actions of the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family.
The Luo Family had already made their move, even the Bai Family had chosen to submit to the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family.
This vast Changping Prefecture was now like a broken drum, anyone could come and have a hit.
Under such circumstances, naturally, many family forces were tempted.
But, as for the temptation,
whether they had the capability to take action against Changping Prefecture and divide it up with the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family, that was another matter.
…
Near Changping Prefecture,
apart from the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family, there was also the Miao Family of Chenguan Prefecture.
The Miao Family had initially thought about making a move against Changli Prefecture.
Compared to the chaotic situation in Changping Prefecture,
it obviously seemed better to strike at Changli Prefecture.
But as the Bai Family pledged allegiance to the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family and stabbed the Huang and Chen Families in the back,
the situation suddenly changed.
The alliance of the three major family forces within Changping Prefecture had completely collapsed.
The combined strength of the family forces within Changping Prefecture had dropped to rock bottom.
Changping Prefecture now resembled an unclothed, seductive woman.
If they didn’t make a move now,
then how could they consider themselves normal men?
“How is the preparation?”
In the Da Feng Dynasty, within the Miao Family Ancestral Land of Chenguan Prefecture,
inside the room of the Miao Family Head,
at this moment, Miao Xingjian was quietly inquiring to the black-clad youth behind him.
“Family Head, the first batch of two hundred thousand elite armored troops is ready,”
“and the food reserves have already been transported continuously to the cities near Changping Prefecture,”
“The army can depart at any time now,”
the black-clad youth said softly, his head slightly lowered.
Miao Xingjian nodded with some satisfaction, “What’s the current situation in Changping Prefecture?”
After thinking for a moment, the black-clad youth answered, “The Bai Family of Changping Prefecture has already submitted to the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family, and the territories of the Huang and Chen Families have lost about a third of their land. It is estimated that within at most ten days, the entirety of Changping Prefecture will fall into the hands of the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family…”
Miao Xingjian thought for a moment, then asked further, “How long will it take for our Miao Family’s first batch of two hundred thousand elite armored troops to reach Changping Prefecture?”
The black-clad youth blurted out, “About five days.”
“Five days?” Miao Xingjian slightly narrowed his eyes, murmuring to himself thoughtfully, “If it takes only five days to get to Changping Prefecture, then my Miao Family can indeed join in with the Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family and have a piece of the action, but to offend the Qingshi City Luo Family for a piece of meat, is it worth it or not?”
Within the Miao Family Ancestral Land, in the room of the Miao Family Head,
Miao Xingjian was pondering this question in his heart.
…
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
In Qingshi City, Luo Family Clan Land,
inside the room of the Luo Family Patriarch,
at this moment, Luo Ping sat silently on the main seat, while Lu Jun, the Family Head of the Lu Family, was seated at a distance by Luo Ping’s side.
“Family Head, the Miao Family of Chenguan Prefecture near Changping Prefecture has mobilized more than two hundred thousand armored warriors,”
“and also transported a large amount of food near Changping Prefecture,”
“That army of more than two hundred thousand seems to be continuously closing in on Changping Prefecture as well.”
