"If this is the case, then I can try when the time comes . "

w.a.n.g Yan was still skeptical, but he had no better methods, so he was willing to try w.a.n.g Chong's suggestion .

"Right, Father, with regards to the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation, I once heard a little about it from Senior Su Zhengchen . Perhaps it could be of use to you," w.a.n.g Chong added, pretending to suddenly recall something .

"The War G.o.d?!!"

w.a.n.g Yan and Xianyu Zhongtong s.h.i.+vered as they turned in shock to w.a.n.g Chong .

"Young Master w.a.n.g, you know the War G.o.d?!"

Xianyu Zhongtong grabbed w.a.n.g Chong's arm with an expression of extreme excitement . He knew that w.a.n.g Chong was very talented, but he had never expected w.a.n.g Chong to know the almost mythical War G.o.d of the Great Tang .

That person was a G.o.dlike existence in the Great Tang . Many people even said that he was dead . Yet w.a.n.g Chong claimed that he actually knew that most esteemed War G.o.d .

"Chong-er, are you telling the truth?"

Even his father w.a.n.g Yan seemed quite stunned .

w.a.n.g Yan had left the capital quite some time ago, so he did not know of Su Zhengchen's situation . As for Xianyu Zhongtong, he had been living in the southwest, and the distance from the capital made it difficult for news to travel, so he was even more unaware .

In truth, even in the capital, only an extremely small circle of people knew of w.a.n.g Chong's relations.h.i.+p with Su Zhengchen .

"Your child is definitely not lying," w.a.n.g Chong said .

It was forbidden to speak about anything from his last life, so w.a.n.g Chong was forced to use Su Zhengchen's name to explain . In addition, Su Zhengchen spent most of his time in his estate, refusing guests at the gate . Outsiders had no chance to meet, and his father would probably be no different .

"No wonder Young Master Chong has such a profound grasp of the art of war . "

Xianyu Zhongtong's eyes glowed as if he had discovered the source of w.a.n.g Chong's astonis.h.i.+ng talent . Although w.a.n.g Chong was still very young, everything could be easily explained if the War G.o.d was involved .

"Chong-er, what did Senior Su say?"

w.a.n.g Yan creased his brow . He was more concerned about what Su Zhengchen had said than about the source of w.a.n.g Chong's astonis.h.i.+ng talent .

w.a.n.g Chong paused for a few moments before giving out the method to advance the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation .

In his last life, once the disaster descended and the countless foreign invaders began to surge in, the mountains and rivers began to shatter and the earth began to sunder . All the secret martial art manuals no longer remained secret .

As the Grand Marshal of the world, the supreme 'War Saint', w.a.n.g Chong had once researched the supreme war formations of the Great Tang to use them in war .

Although time had been limited and w.a.n.g Chong had not been able to delve into everything, he had still come away with some results . And the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation, as the formation that his father had been most skilled in, was one with which he had achieved the earliest results .

Although it was impossible to greatly increase the power of the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation in such a short amount of time, a small increase in its offensive power was achievable .

As w.a.n.g Yan listened to this method, he grew more and more surprised . He had been using the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation for six or seven years now and knew every detail of it by heart .

But it was precisely for this reason that when w.a.n.g Yan heard this method, he knew that this was an even higher level of the skill .

w.a.n.g Chong said that this was a kind of method, but it would be better to describe this as a technique called 'Mighty Miracle Strike' . It allowed for a large boost of power over a very short time that permitted one to unleash an abnormally powerful blow .

This move would place an incredible burden on the bodies of all the people in the formation, but it was truly capable of increasing one's offensive power .

"Senior Su really told you this?" w.a.n.g Yan muttered in shock .

All the supreme formations of the Great Tang had long histories, had been refined hundreds of times . Formations like the Mighty Miracle G.o.d could be dated to as far back as Taizong's era .

w.a.n.g Yan had never imagined that someone could further improve this kind of formation that the country relied on to an even higher level .

"Lord Protector-General, speak with my son for a bit . I have something to attend to . "

Now that he had obtained the method to improve the Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation, w.a.n.g Yan was impatient to leave . The Mighty Miracle G.o.d Formation was linked to the outcome of this battle, so w.a.n.g Yan could not wait .

The moment w.a.n.g Yan left, Xianyu Zhongtong asked, "Young Master w.a.n.g, why did I never hear you mention the old War G.o.d before?" This matter was truly the most surprising thing he had heard today .

"With the enemy here, how could w.a.n.g Chong be in the mood to discuss such things?" w.a.n.g Chong said with a bitter smile . From a certain perspective, it wouldn't be overboard to say that he was Su Zhengchen's successor, but Su Zhengchen was not his master in the art of war . On the contrary, Su Zhengchen had lost to him in that aspect .

If not for the urgency of the situation, w.a.n.g Chong wouldn't have even brought the matter up .

"Young Master is correct . "

Xianyu Zhongtong was filled with a deep awe .

"What thoughts does Young Master have on the coming battle?"

"Lord Protector-General, what are your thoughts on Mengshe Zhao Great General Duan Gequan?" w.a.n.g Chong somberly asked .

"Oh?"

Xianyu Zhongtong frowned, his expression turning grave . He had originally believed that w.a.n.g Chong would ask him about the Vajra G.o.d Formation . He didn't think w.a.n.g Chong would ask about Duan Gequan .

"I didn't want to say anything, but since Young Master has asked, I'll say it straight . In this war, the one I'm worried about the most isn't Huoshu Huicang, but Duan Gequan . "

Xianyu Zhongtong had an extremely solemn expression . In the time that w.a.n.g Chong had known him, this was his first time seeing Xianyu Zhongtong so serious .

w.a.n.g Chong sat upright and indicated that he was willing to listen .

"Wolves stand out in the open . No matter how vicious or numerous they are, you can mentally prepare yourself to face them . But a venomous snake hiding in the gra.s.s can't be seen or heard, so you can't defend yourself against it . Duan Gequan is this venomous snake . "

In the darkness, Xianyu Zhongtong spoke a set of words that shocked w.a.n.g Chong . Xianyu Zhongtong gave off the impression of an honest, loyal, and upright individual .

w.a.n.g Chong had never imagined that Xianyu Zhongtong would have such a high evaluation of Duan Gequan, nor that Xianyu Zhongtong, though seeming careless and crude, was actually keeping a close eye on everything .

"Lord Protector-General, what happened at the battle of Erhai?"

w.a.n.g Chong finally voiced the question that concerned him the most . He was sure that Xianyu Zhongtong would have never said such words if he had not experienced that most miserable and unforgettable experience .

Xianyu Zhongtong's eyes twitched, his face twisting in his reluctance to think back .

"Duan Gequan has never been one to rashly move out . He's always staring at you, watching, seeking out your weaknesses, until he can deliver the fatal blow at the crucial moment . "

A b.l.o.o.d.y light emerged in Xianyu Zhongtong's eyes . The battle of Erhai would always be the greatest defeat of his life, the deepest disgrace, the nightmare that he would never be able to forget .

Even when w.a.n.g Chong asked, he was still unwilling to recall those things .

The banner flapped in the wind, and as w.a.n.g Chong looked at that protector-general who was bound to be cursed by the world, he saw the pain, hatred, and shame in his eyes, and felt deeply moved .

w.a.n.g Chong's understanding of Xianyu Zhongtong had always come from the mouths of others, from the gossip about him on the streets of the capital . Besides this, w.a.n.g Chong knew nothing else of him .

For the first time, w.a.n.g Chong was understanding the world deep within the mind of this 'criminal of the Great Tang' .

"I understand . "

w.a.n.g Chong earnestly nodded .

"I'll have to trouble Milord with Duan Gequan . In addition, w.a.n.g Chong has another matter that he would like to discuss with Lord Protector-General . "

"Oh?"

Slightly moved, Xianyu Zhongtong finally showed a sliver of surprise .

No one knew what they discussed, only that Xianyu Zhongtong left very late .

"Young Master, rest at ease . If that situation really does occur, Xianyu will pay any price to hold him down . "

Xianyu Zhongtong had an incredibly serious expression on his face .

"Then I'll have to trouble Lord Protector-General," w.a.n.g Chong said as he sent him off .

Once Xianyu Zhongtong left, the summit returned to silence . w.a.n.g Chong stood alone beneath the banner, his mind unsettled . The state of the battle meant that what he could do was extremely limited .

No one knew how this battle would end up, not Huoshu Huicang, Dalun Ruozan, w.a.n.g Chong, or Xianyu Zhongtong . But w.a.n.g Chong did know that the outcome of this battle would soon be decided .

"I wonder how Dalun Ruozan is doing?"

w.a.n.g Chong suddenly thought about his opponent down below . Although his situation was poor, w.a.n.g Chong knew that Dalun Ruozan's situation was certainly not much better .

Dalun Ruozan's situation truly was very poor .

"Reporting! Another twenty soldiers fell ill from the climate and were sent to Mengshe Zhao's military physicians . "

A Tibetan messenger kneeled on the ground, his head lowered . More than seven such messengers were lined up in the tent .

Another Tibetan messenger finally couldn't help but say, "Great Minister, the food of Mengshe Zhao is not suitable for us . The soldiers are all suffering diarrhea . Great Minister must think of a way to resolve the food problem . "

"I know . You're all dismissed . "

Dalun Ruozan waved his hand, in a foul mood .

A voice came from behind him . "We can't last for too long . We nomads still can't adapt to their food . " The G.o.d-like figure of Huoshu Huicang was standing like an unmoving statue behind Dalun Ruozan .

Dalun Ruozan gave a long sigh .

Huoshu Huicang was right, and how could he not know of it?

The entire Tibetan army was currently eating the food of Mengshe Zhao . The problem of hunger was temporarily addressed, but the entire army was suffering diarrhea .

A few of the soldiers had such fierce bouts of diarrhea that they even fainted .

This was the result of Tibetan stomachs failing to adapt to Mengshe Zhao food .

And for the Tibetans, the ultimate result was a swift plunge in the fighting power of the army . If this continued, in five to seven days, the Tibetan army would lose the ability to threaten the Annan Protectorate army .

"We no longer have any other method . This is our last resort . Right now, this war is about who can last the longest, who will fall first . We cannot retreat now, nor do we have the ability to .

"If we can't occupy the southwest, the heavy price we have paid will be for nothing," Dalun Ruozan harshly declared .
