"But if you come to the top of two mountains, you will be discovered by the golden winged Mirs. What's more, if it finds out that there are soldiers and horses hiding on the top of Longpan and Huju mountain, and mobilizes the tide of animals to attack, won't our previous arrangement of the hideaway array and Xiaobai's Zhoutian array be in vain? Moreover, although there are Shicheng strongholds at the top of the two mountains, in such a narrow terrain, we are definitely not the opponents of these beasts that crisscross the mountains and forests. " Gu Qingcheng hears speech some hesitant ask a way.
Lu Que's eyes flashed when he heard the speech, and he turned to Xiaobai, the spirit beast on his shoulder. Before he asked Xiaobai if there was any way to stop jinwinged Mirs from flying back to the south to recall the animals, Xiaobai gave this method. Out of his trust in Xiaobai, Lu que didn't ask much even if he was not sure. Now Gu Qingcheng proposes that Lu que also wants to hear what Xiao Bai's reliance is.
Xiaobai, the spirit beast, looks at the sea of fire. If someone observes it carefully, he will find that the pupils in his eyes are constantly rotating. It seems that he can see the situation behind him through the fire and ashes.
After a long time, Xiaobai took his eyes back and said slowly, "the golden winged Mirs are arrogant and fierce. Even if they are not invaded by the evil spirit of the dead spirit abyss, they are not affected by the killing karma in the red world. With their mind, they will never care about the fate and life of the animal tide blocked in the South Bank of Danshui. What's more, maybe you just didn't find out that most of the fierce beasts and exotic beasts hidden in the animal tide just now have passed the Danshui River, and they haven't been buried in the raging flames just now. With these fierce beasts and exotic beasts that belong to the backbone of the herd, golden winged Mirs won't care about the fate of the animal tide on the south bank. "
"But what if it goes back to check?" Gu Qingcheng or some don't trust of pursue a way.
"I was born in 120 years. I was the guardian beast of the human race, and the tripod was the most precious treasure of Yanhuang's suppression of the human race. Now the animal tide is breaking out, threatening the safety of hundreds of millions of human race. Isn't it a natural thing for me and the tripod to appear here?" Royal spirit beast small white shakes a head, light say.
"You mean you and Mirs will fight ahead of time?" Lu short smell speech in the heart a surprised, side head looking at small white to ask a way.
It's true that the spirit beast is the supreme holy beast, and it's also true that it's the king who doesn't return to the mountain. But Xiaobai is only a child after all, and has not reached the peak of spirit beast. In Lu Que's mind, he just needs to find the time to trap the golden winged Mirs into the big formation, and then use the power of the imperial spirit tripod and Aoki to suppress them temporarily until the tide of beasts is destroyed. But he never thought that Xiaobai would fight it head-on.
Although the golden winged Mirs left xiyuanze with only about 30% of their strength under the pressure of the green wood rule, the divine beast is, after all, a divine beast and must not be despised. What's more, the golden winged Mirs are originally the overlord of the sky, and their speed is also the top among the divine beasts. With Xiaobai's power, even if they have the blessing of Aoki's power and the spirit tripod on their side, the victory or defeat is unknown. As a spirit animal, Xiaobai grew up with him. He absolutely didn't want Xiaobai to be dangerous because of him.
"Don't worry." Seeing the worry in Lu Que's eyes, Xiao Bai arched up, rubbed Lu Que's cheek with his head and said, "at this time, the golden winged Mirs have arrived at Jiguan mountain. If there is no accident, the animals that rush out of the canyon should be repaired there, and then attack zhennanguan tomorrow, so the golden winged Mirs will never fly back to check the team after the animal tide."
"Jiguan mountain?" Hearing this place name, Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng looked at each other.
This place name has a special meaning for them. More than a year ago, the Yulin scouting camp was ambushed by the rear army of the wild lion army led by Qiu Ao in Jiguan mountain, and almost completely annihilated. This led to the battle of Danshui, in which Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng gathered the scouts and defeated the army. Depending on their military achievements, they were granted temporary military posts, and then the battle of hexingyuan came. In other words, the first step of their rise in the army was closely related to the battle of Jiguanshan.
Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng, who are familiar with the terrain, know that Jiguan mountain is half a day away from them. If Jinyi Dapeng wants to let the tide of beasts rest there, he will wait there for the tide of beasts to arrive. By that time, even if he finds the tide of beasts and the team doesn't follow him, everything will be a foregone conclusion. Now it seems that Xiaobai's connection of the two mountain formations with the help of the spirit tripod is more just in case.
"That's good news." After thinking about everything, Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng can't help but feel relieved.
At this time, the flames in the two mountain canyons were not completely extinguished. It was very difficult to extinguish the flames caused by the fierce fire oil before the oil was completely burned out. I felt the uncomfortable high temperature between heaven and earth, the flying smoke and the pungent smell of the corpses, whether they were Lu Que, Gu Qingcheng, Xiao Bai or the soldiers in the stone city of Longpan mountain, All fell into silence.
Although the two races are divided between the enemy and ourselves, they have to be separated in the end, but it is uncomfortable to see so many just majestic lives and die in the sea of fire. As long as there is a little kindness in their hearts, they will feel uncomfortable.
"Lu que, most of the animal tide has passed, and ye Zhiqiu has led the team away. What should we do next?" Gu Qingcheng eased his mood and asked.
"Wait." Lu que looked at the diminishing flame in the canyon and the 6000 Qingqi that had disappeared on the horizon in the distance, slowly spitting out a word.
"What are you waiting for?" Gu Qingcheng looked at Lu Que and said, "although Zhennan pass is strong, it may not be safe under the attack of golden winged Mirs, fierce beasts and other beasts. Even if Yunshu is the first one to be worshipped in the imperial city and the strong of Jiuyao Xingzong is still there, we should make preparations ahead of time."
"Preparation is to be done." Lu nodded, then shook his head and said, "but before the arrival of the two armies, we must not act rashly. We can't fight a war of attrition in the face of the tide of beasts. We have to concentrate our forces to complete the battle. Moreover, the city of zhennanguan is high and deep, and there are strong soldiers guarding it. The tide of beasts can't break it overnight, Let the animal tide spend a period of time there first, and cut off some of their spirit. "
"But ~" Gu Qingcheng wanted to say more.
Lu que waved his hand and said, "sister Qingcheng, I've made a deduction these days. If there's no accident, zhennanguan will definitely have no problem holding on for 20 to 30 days. When the two legions arrive and the tide of beasts is exhausted, it's time for us to launch a counter offensive and encircle and annihilate them."
"Since you say so, it's up to Shen Shuai." Gu Qingcheng sighed and looked at the black smoke and dust floating between the heaven and the earth, not without worry.
At the same time, on the top of the highest watchtower of zhennanguan, Shen Zhang, the commander of the thundering army, and Gu Huaiyi, the commander of Zhuowei guards, are looking at the southern sky together. Even hundreds of miles apart, the pillar of smoke rising from the North Bank of Danshui is still clearly visible in zhennanguan. The long-lasting plume of smoke in the sky will turn bloody red because of the outbreak of the animal tide, rendering a black color, just like the ink ball in a picture scroll. Shen Zhang and Gu Huaiyi naturally understand what this means.
"What a big fire. I don't know how much damage this fire can cause?" Gu Huaiyi some excited rub hands said.
"No matter how much we lose, the pressure we face has not been reduced at all. Brother Gu, we have no way out. The survival of countless people behind us is the land of Daqian." Compared with Gu Huaiyi's excitement, Shen Zhang's face was still dignified.
Although the emperor transferred the eight capital Fenghuang Wei du to the front line of Qingquan City, he invited his good friend Wu'an Hou Bai Yi to go south in person. However, Zhennan pass is the last line of defense for Daqian. If this pass is lost, the war against the tide of beasts will become a protracted war. In the end, even if Daqian can win the final victory, the loss is what any minister who is committed to creating the prosperous age of Daqian does not want to see.
"You're right. We really have no way back." Gu Huaiyi's face became more serious. Gu Huaiyi would not be so unbearable if he could be the commander-in-chief and commander-in-chief of the army in the Hongxi Dynasty. The reason why I just showed my excitement is to ease the pressure in my heart.
After all, he is different from Lu que. He has been living in Daqian. He almost grew up listening to the horror of animal tide. Now he has to face it personally. It's false to say that he's not nervous. Under such circumstances, it's extremely rare for him to ensure that he doesn't make mistakes.
"I've been looking for you two here for a long time." At this time, a woman with light fur and plain clothes suddenly appeared in the watchtower. Shen Zhang and Gu Huaiyi didn't even know that someone was coming. At this time, the only one who had such a state of cultivation in zhennanguan was Yunshu, the first worshipper in the imperial city of Zhenguo's cloud family.
Seeing the arrival of Yunshu, Shen Zhang and Gu Huaiyi both turned around and gave a half salute to show their respect. After all, in the worship of the Imperial City, they were all strong men in the realm of great calamity and the realm of human beings. No matter whether they were officials in the imperial court or not, and what their origins were, this cultivation alone is enough to be respected. Then Shen Zhang opened his mouth and said, "Lu Shuai carefully arranged this game. Naturally, we have to see the result."
"Here, this is a letter sent by Lu que yesterday. It may be due to the impact of the outbreak of the animal tide. The eagle has just arrived." Yun Shu said and took out a metal tube from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Zhang.
After Shen Zhang took the tube, he found that the wax seal on it was intact. It was obvious that Yun Shu hadn't taken it apart and looked at her in surprise.
"So what are you doing here?" Seeing Shen Zhang's eyes, Yun Shu frowned slightly and said, "it's the duty of the soldiers to guard the city. I still know the scale. I don't want to ask about military information, but if you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me as much as you can, and the imperial worship will do its best to help you. "
After Yunshu finished this sentence, he disappeared in the watchtower. Just as she had just come, Shen Zhang and Gu Huaiyi watched her disappear, but they didn't find out how she left, just like she didn't appear here, just like everything was just an illusion.
"Yun shouzun read the ancient books and created the great dream Sutra. It really deserves the reputation." Shen Zhang said with admiration. Then with a pinch of both hands, he crushed the wax seal and took out a piece of paper full of small characters.
"There are so many fierce beasts in the animal tide." When Shen Zhang saw the words on the paper, his heart sank. Although he was born in a poor family, he was not a man without knowledge as a think tank of Qianhuang Yu Yuanxu's hidden residence. He knew very well what it meant to mark the rank and number of strange animals and fierce animals.
"No matter how many ferocious animals there are, it's still no problem for us to defend the city for a period of time. It's just that the commander-in-chief Lu wants us to stick to it for a month. Isn't it hard for us to force others to do so?" Even though Lu que was their future son-in-law, Gu Huaiyi frowned when he saw the last words on the paper. It was definitely not easy to stick to the tide of animals. Moreover, zhennanguan, which had no flaw in the enemy's army, was not completely without weakness under the impact of the tide of animals.
"Brother Gu, this is the military order of the commander-in-chief's office in southern Xinjiang." Shen Zhang folded the paper and put it in his arms. He said solemnly.
"Naturally, I know it's the commander-in-chief's order. I mean, do you want to increase the defensive forces on the city wall?" Gu Huaiyi smell speech some embarrassed said. Because Lu Que and his niece Gu Qingcheng have an engagement, Gu Huaiyi unconsciously regards Lu que as a nephew, not a commander in chief.
"The troops on the city wall are the most ideal result after our previous deduction. More or less is not a good thing. " Shen Zhang shook his head, then looked at Gu Huaiyi and said, "brother Gu, my thunder army has been busy repairing Guancheng and adjusting the defense of the city wall. I'm a little tired. The war is coming soon. Today I want them to have a rest. I want to ask brother Gu's Zhuo Wei for help."
"It's time to be polite. Besides, you are the commander-in-chief of the benlei army. Your official position is above me. Now you are the leader of zhennanguan. If you want me to do anything, you can give me a direct order." Gu Huaiyi should have said.
"I'd like to ask brother Gu to find some giant stones under his command to block and reinforce the door completely." Shen Zhang said, pointing to the gates facing the south of zhennanguan.
"That's it?" Gu Huaiyi looked at Shen Zhang in surprise, then nodded and said, "no problem, give it to us, your thunder army will have a rest today."
"Thank you, brother Gu." Shen Zhang felt a smile on his face.
