Zhang San, please behave yourself!-Chapter 818 - 754: The Assault of the 36 Nations of the Western Regions!

Zhang San and the others noticed something was wrong outside, so they rushed out immediately.

"Excuse me, what’s happening here?"

There, an elderly woman selling vegetables grinned and said, "It must be people from the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions attacking! Run quickly! If you run late, you’ll lose your life!"

Saying this, the old lady hurriedly grabbed her vegetables and rushed towards her home.

Zhang San frowned, looking towards the entrance of the town.

"Take action!"

Hearing this, Hu, standing nearby, said coldly, "How do we take action? If we kill these invading soldiers, and other Western Regions soldiers find out, I’m afraid this town will face even more insane retaliation."

Zhang San pondered for a moment, then said to Hu, Prince Ying Jun, and the Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums, "This time we’ll need the three of you to act. After all, these are just small soldiers from the Western Regions, and their combat power shouldn’t be that strong. I hope the three of you can use the unique attack methods of the Demon Clan. After making your move, just throw their bodies near the territory of the Wolf Clan nearby."

The three from the Demon Clan immediately charged out of the small town, launching a most ferocious attack on the Western Regions soldiers advancing from afar.

On the side, Baili Niezhen asked in confusion, "Master, if we do this, won’t the Western Regions soldiers retaliate against this small town?"

At this moment, Zhang San realized, although Baili Niezhen is a Half-Demon, when it comes to strategy or understanding human nature, Hu, who has never transformed, is the most skilled.

Zhang San, along with Baili Niezhen and third brother Wang Bo, walked out of the small town, looking towards the distant battle that had just begun.

"The reasoning here is actually quite simple. Although we don’t know where this group of chaotic Western Regions soldiers came from, if they are killed in this small town, and there are allies nearby, they will inevitably come for revenge! Right?"

Baili Niezhen and Wang Bo nodded.

"But this place isn’t particularly far from Julong Pass. Even at our speed, it wouldn’t take more than a night to get here. And there are many Great Sui garrisons along Longyou Road. Since there’s no news of any warfare, these Western Regions soldiers might be soldiers fleeing from some country’s internal chaos and happened to reach here, or it could be the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions jointly attacking our Great Sui."

"The former is not much of a concern. But if it’s the latter, there might be Qian Shanxiu’s handiwork behind this. After all, he is the Chief of the Town Demon Office and knows Longyou Road very well. He might even know the locations of various garrisons and the number of troops."

"Therefore, quite a number from the Thirty-Six Western Regions might have come this time. Since they managed to get here safely all the way, their target might be to attack Julong Pass. On their way, they definitely wouldn’t have clashed with the Demon Clan, otherwise, they’d easily find themselves besieged from both sides."

"So, throwing these Western Regions soldiers’ bodies on the North Wind Wolf Clan’s territory, even if they discover it, they’d only think it’s a Demon Clan attack. Would they dare to seek revenge against the Demon Clan? They wouldn’t dare. So, this matter would be dropped."

"In this way, the town is safe. They might even think that the towns near the North Wind Wolf Clan’s territory are protected by the clan, so they wouldn’t act rashly."

Only then did Baili Niezhen and Wang Bo understand why Zhang San had the three from the Demon Clan act and then throw the Western Regions soldiers’ bodies onto the Wolf Clan’s territory.

As the battle in the front ended, all the more than a hundred Western Regions soldiers initially attacking the town were completely wiped out.

Although Zhang San didn’t find any orders or similar items on them, judging by the food, armor, and weapon wear, it wasn’t hard to tell that this was a troop that had just switched to new equipment.

Thus, it seems his earlier guess was indeed correct.

These Western Regions soldiers were coming to attack Julong Pass.

Moreover, this seemed to be a relatively large-scale war with a clear intent to invade.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t all have new weapons and equipment.

"Everyone, it looks like we need to head back to Julong Pass immediately. I’m afraid this time, the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions are coming at us!"

To confirm his suspicions, Zhang San had Prince Ying Jun and Silly Roe Deer go investigate.

Sure enough, the two of them discovered the large troops of the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions.

Although the soldiers’ attire, banners, etc., from each country were completely different, the massive troop movement proved that the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions were planning something big.

And it was indeed something significant.

Thus, Zhang San quickly led everyone back to Julong Pass and found Li Shangfa, who had just finished praying to a wooden statue.

"Deputy Chief Zhang, why are you looking for me?"

As Li Shangfa stepped out of the tent, he saw Zhang San and couldn’t help but be startled, fearing that Zhang San might have overheard his prayers inside.

"General Li, it’s not good. The Western Regions army is attacking."

Hearing this, Li Shangfa was first stunned, then couldn’t help but laugh.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Deputy Chief Zhang, you’ve just arrived, so you’re not familiar with the deployment of the Sui Army garrisons all over Longyou Road! They’ve secured almost every critical point. Not to mention the Western Regions army, even if one or two countries tried to sneak attack us, they’d have been detected by other garrisons along the way!"

Zhang San retorted, "I’m not familiar. But is Qian Shanxiu familiar?"

At that instant, Li Shangfa immediately grasped the situation.

It’s natural that people from the Western Regions couldn’t possibly reach Julong Pass without drawing swords or firing guns.

But with Qian Shanxiu’s assistance, it was another matter altogether.

"However, internal discord in the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions is common. Even if a few countries unite, the allied forces might barely exceed ten thousand, maybe even twenty thousand at most, falling short of thirty thousand! With the defensive power of Julong Pass and eight thousand brave soldiers, there’s nothing to fear! Absolutely nothing to fear!"

Just then, an aide-de-camp ran over from afar, sliding to a kneeling stop in front of Li Shangfa.

"General Li! It’s not good!"

"I haven’t died yet! What’s so bad about that!?"

Li Shangfa shouted angrily at the aide-de-camp.

After all, he was his own personal guard, and behaving so defenseless in front of Zhang San and the others would make him appear cowardly!

"Sixty miles west of Julong Pass, a coalition of the Thirty-Six Nations of the Western Regions was discovered. They number about 280,000 strong!"

Although the enemy numbers were vast, Li Shangfa’s face showed no fear.

His legs were just slightly weak.
