Volume 1 Southern Regions Chapter 84 The Army of the Dead
Yan Kingdom in the north, Tiger Prison Pass.
Ye Xuan, the commander of the Tiger Prison Pass, entered the customs and brought an army. The army came from Handan, the military period was delayed for a month, and the handsome flag was written with one word, Wang.
Generalissimo of the Yan State, the Great Sima, Wang Lang's army.
30,000 people entered the pass, and Wu Lianjiang, the general guarding the tiger prison pass, personally greeted them. The two parties tacitly understood Wu Lianjiang's identity, and the ceremony of entering the city was very full.
But Wang Lang knew very well that the Wu Lianjiang in front of him was not Wu Lianjiang. The real Wu Lianjiang had already gone to see the king of Hades on the day Mu Suifeng entered the customs.
When Wang Lang's army entered the customs, the first thing he did was to visit a person. Together with his military advisor Yuan Zhe, he went to visit the person who was named the Sword Emperor by the people of Kyushu, Xie Xuan, who "broke the sky with one finger".
Ye Xuan fell unconscious after entering the customs.
In Wang Lang's words, it was caused by his running around and overwork.
Tiger Prison Pass General's Mansion, Qingfeng Garden.
Outside the door, Yan Guo's big Sima, who covered the sky with one hand, personally knocked on the door and asked, "Is Daozun here?"
"Come in. Xie Xuan said.
The two pushed the door in, but saw an old man with a goatee sitting quietly drinking tea under the cold plum tree.
The old man is not good-looking, but the temperament he exudes all over his body makes people feel like they are in Yushan.
"Sit. Xie Xuan said.
The two stepped forward and sat down.
Xie Xuan poured the tea himself.
Tea is the best tongue in the Tiger Prison.
There are plum blossom petals falling gently, floating on the mellow tea water, like the lying of the immortals.
"Daozun, 30,000 soldiers, come as promised. Wang Lang said.
"Drink tea. Xie Xuan said.
Yuan Zhe took a sip and exclaimed: "Good tea!"
"How's it going?" Xie Xuan asked.
"Into the throat alcohol. Yuan Zhe said, "If you look at the sword with a lamp, it is refreshing, ancient and transparent." β
"Drinking tea is like tasting a sword?" Xie Xuan smiled, "It's interesting." β
"Isn't it?" Yuan Zhe said, reminiscing about the aftertaste between his teeth, "There is a murderous aura in Daozun's tea." More sword intent. β
"You're right. Xie Xuan glanced at Yuan Zhe, then looked at Wang Lang, and said, "Wang Lang, go down with a sword, on one side is your brother Wang Yong, and on the other side is Yan Guo behind you." You have one sword, and you only have one. Which one do you save?"
Wang Lang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "My brother treats me like a father and a mother. If I were Wang Lang, I would save my brother. If I am Sima Wang Lang, I should save the country. β
"Then who are you?" Xie Xuan asked.
"Yan Guoda Sima, Wang Lang, Wang Jinghong. Wang Lang spoke. Jinghong is his word, and few people know it.
"Since this is the case, then I will tell you that this time we are going south, we are facing the beginning of the national disaster of Yan Kingdom, and it is also the source of calamity. Xie Xuan said, "Seventy years ago, in the Northern War, do you still remember the Jin army led by Xian Zhen, the head of the four great war gods of the Jin Kingdom, which was destroyed in the Dushan Mountain?"
"Don't dare to forget. Wang Lang said.
"They're back. Xie Xuan said, "The 60,000 horses back then, and the 50,000 ghost pawns now." They have returned from hell. β
The teacup shuddered.
Yuan Zhe took a deep breath, "No wonder. Count the yang to get the yin, so that's it. In my early years, I was in Jixia School Palace, and my master once mentioned to me that there was a disaster in Zhongzhou Daomen, and the old heavenly master fell because of this. The new Heavenly Master succeeded Zhang Jiuling, the youngest Heavenly Master in the history of Zhongzhou Daomen. Zhang Tianshi turned the tide and supported the right path, facing the army of the dead. β
"That's not true. Xie Xuan said, "The one who turned the tide was the old sword immortal Kong Zhou." Zhang Jiuling was just a foil at that time. β
"Strategist, the dead - how can they be resurrected?" Wang Lang still couldn't believe it.
Yuan Zhe shook his head.
"Then where is that army now?" Wang Lang asked again.
"Weicheng. Xie Xuan said, "The strength of the Tiger Prison Pass, plus you, is only 50,000. Weicheng defenders, up to 50,000. The combined strength of the seven cities in the Southern Regions is 150,000. If conscripted, 300,000. β
"In a hurry, I'm afraid 100,000 is our strength. Yuan Zhe said, "100,000 to 50,000, what are the odds?"
Xie Xuan shook his head, "I'm afraid that the number of the first army has exceeded fifty thousand. Ghost pawns cross the border, and anyone who kills them is a ghost pawn. β
Wang Lang took a deep breath and said, "Then how to win this battle?"
"Among the hosts, take the head of the enemy. Xie Xuan said, "This is the only way." In the Zhongzhou Rebellion that year, the old sword immortal Kong Zhou's salary at the bottom of the kettle was also this method. β
"What does Dao Zun mean is that we rush away from the army of the dead and cut off the first, so that we can win this battle?" Yuan Zhe asked.
Xie Xuan shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not Xianzhen, it's a demon cultivator named Li Tianxing." β
When the two heard this, they were both stunned.
"Daozun, Li Tianxing, didn't you kill you twelve years ago?" Wang Lang said.
Xie Xuan shook his head and said, "The worst plan is for us to face the army of 100,000 people. Heyang Hou went to Dangyang Pass, if it goes well, Dangyang Pass will rush to our aid. In addition, there is a reinforcement. β
"Where?" Wang Lang asked.
"The time has not come. Xie Xuan said, "I hope that the Marquis of Heyang will have a smooth trip." β
Dangyang Pass, one of the five passes in the north.
The southern region of the Yan Kingdom blocked the unequaled foot soldiers of the Qi State from entering the Xiongguan of the Yan Kingdom.
At this time, Hou Mu of Heyang followed the wind and had been in the customs for ten days.
......
Weicheng.
The secret letter that Zhao Dun received was to stick to Weicheng for three days. The secret letter is from the secret art of the Daomen, a white dove, formed from the letter, named "Xie Xuan".
But when Zhao Dun climbed the ruined city tower and saw the dense army of the dead under Weicheng City, he took a deep breath.
Lakh.
The besieging army, 100,000 people.
The first general of the national war, who had been dead for seventy years, looked at him with his eyes that emitted red light, and in an instant, Zhao Dun fell into the illusion of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Boss!" Vice General Chen Deng roared, waking him up from the illusion, Zhao Dun was covered in cold sweat, and he was afraid.
That's the gap.
The gap between a famous general in troubled times and a "prosperous" general.
Xian Zhen sat on top of the skeleton war horse, but in Zhao Dun's eyes, he was the one who overlooked all living beings on the city tower.
Bai Ze was already stunned.
Those people are clearly people who have been dead for 70 years. How can you get out of Dushan and besiege Weicheng?
The world is in chaos, yin and yang are inverted?
First the soldiers and beasts, and then the army of the dead.
Kyushu world, is there wolf smoke again?
The 100,000 troops of the pioneer besieged the city, and the dense black torrent began to run around Weicheng, without shouting, just the heavy footsteps of the god of death rose and fell one after another, endlessly.
This is a demonstration.
It is also the first place in the national war to observe the terrain and choose a suitable siege site.
The good news is that this army has no siege equipment, and the bad news is that the Weicheng gate was smashed open yesterday, and the Heyang army didn't think about repairing the gate at all.
So the gates were barely closed.
Three thousand men and horses rushed to block all the things that could block the door, and they wanted to tear down the entire inner city and stuff it into the city gate.
But the city wall that was smashed by catapults before, then there was no way. Zhao Dun deeply understood what it meant to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.
Defend the city for three days.
Zhao Dun's eyes darkened.
In three days, I'm afraid he will almost be hacked to death and become a member of the army of the dead.
"Boss, you are well-informed, what the hell is thisβwhat is the situation?" Chen Deng had not yet recovered from the joy of Weicheng's surrender, when he suddenly saw 100,000 dead people surrounding the city he had just taken, and the feeling was indescribable.
Zhao Dun looked at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze noticed Zhao Dun's gaze, looked over, and shook his head.
He hesitated to smash the jade plaque, called the old man Xie Xuan, and asked what the situation was now.
"The one who came was not good. Zhao Dun stubbornly said, "It's friend or foe." β
Chen Deng: "...... I can see it if you don't say it!"
First led an army of 100,000 to run around Weicheng three times, and then returned to Weicheng Zhengyang Gate. The 100,000-strong army had no military formation at all, and a large area was laid behind the Xianzhen.
The two sides stared at each other for two hours.
The defenders of Heyang did not dare to come out. Fearing that the army of the dead under the city would suddenly rise up, they rushed up and bulldozed the outer city.
The first 100,000 troops stood under the city of Weicheng for a whole day. The defenders of Weicheng City Tower have changed five waves, and the whole city of 50,000 people is ready to get involved in this puzzling war at any time.
But for a whole day, the army of the pioneers did not move at all.
Someone moved.
Ha Duong defenders.
To be precise, it was the military heart of the Heyang defenders who moved.
Panic gradually spread rapidly among the Ha Yang army, and it was never heard of anyone who died and could crawl out of the grave.
Especially now, not only did he climb out, but he also ran to the gate of someone else's house to show off his might.
Disastrous.
When Zhao Dun understood, Chen Deng also figured it out. The two met at the Commander's Mansion and said two words at the same time, "Attack the heart!"
The world's famous generals are the world's famous generals.
The first ran around Weicheng three times, lined up to that station, and did not move at all, but the defenders of Heyang had already messed up the morale of the army.
The two glanced at each other, and both saw panic in each other's eyes. If nothing else, early tomorrow morning, when the Heyang army is extremely frightened, it will be the time to attack the city first!
If this development continues, the siege will begin, and within three hours, Weicheng will be broken.
When the time comes, it will be a sea of corpses and blood.
All of them are dead!
"Boss, what should we do now?" Chen Deng asked.
"Gather all the generals, gather the three armies, and the commander will give a lecture before the battle!" Zhao Dun ordered.
Ordered the marching troops to run to Weicheng, and urgently summoned the generals of the Heyang Army, up to the deputy generals, staff generals, pioneers, captains, and down to centurions and even chiefs, Bai Ze was looking for people all over the city.
He was looking for Yu Youwei.
Early in the morning, Yu Youwei said that she wanted to go out of the city.
The city gate garrison changed waves, personnel were transferred, and the garrison at that time did not know where to go. Bai Ze wasn't sure if Yu Youwei had left the city.
Once Yu Youwei leaves the city at that time, she will definitely encounter 100,000 ghost pawns from the first place.
Bai Ze could think of it with his eyes closed, and when the two sides met, Yu Youwei would definitely die even if she had the means to reach the sky.
"Don't go out of the city......" Bai Ze panicked.
I don't know why I felt that inexplicable emotion.
But it did make him suffer deeply.
Bai Ze had a hunch.
A very clear hunch.
He was obsessed.
There is a kind of demon called "Yu Youwei".
