Chapter Seventy-Two: The Vanguard
Farewell to Liu Zheng, the four did not return to the camp to rest, but went to a slope in the middle of the two armies together. At this time, the night breeze is gentle, the shadows of the trees are around, and the stars are accompanied by the moon overhead, which should be a beautiful scenery, but no one appreciates it.
The four of them stood on the high slope, and as far as the eye could see, they saw that the lights were bright in the distance, and the camp tents were innumerable, and from time to time there were patrols shuttling back and forth, as if the defeat in the first battle had not affected them in the slightest.
After watching it for a while, He Fatzi suddenly spoke: "The Holy Venerable cultivation is a great advancement, who else in the world can resist it?"
Cheng Xiaoxi and the three of them shook their heads when they heard this, Mo said that now, even three years ago, no one could compete with the Holy Venerable.
......
In the Central Tent of the Southern Corps.
"Why, don't you talk anymore?"
"Are you all dumb?" Bai Hongyi asked two questions, but no one answered, he sneered, and then swept his gaze over the faces of the four people present one by one, and finally stopped at a middle-aged man with a round face and big ears, "Brother Jin, don't even you speak?"
The real name of the Jin brother who was asked by him by name is Jin Yunmei, and he is now the head of the Jin family, and a series of plans for starting a family were presided over by him.
Jin Yunmei put down the teacup in her hand and slowly stood up, seeing that several people here gathered their eyes, he raised his eyelids, and then said leisurely: "Teach you early to don't underestimate the people of the world, heh, now that you have planted such a big heel, does it hurt?"
Bai Hongyi's face turned red, and he was about to speak, but a young man on the seat next to him preemptively said: "Uncle Jin's words are serious, although my Southern Army has been defeated, it has not hurt the fundamentals, tomorrow you only need to set up a position, and the armies will rely on each other, and it will be ...... all the way through."
Young in his early Chinese New Year's Eve, with strong blood, not tall, not short, not fat, not thin, and his face is heroic, it is Bai Hongyi's eldest son Bai Yinan.
Jin Yunmei glanced at him, and couldn't help laughing: "What the virtuous nephew said is indeed reasonable, tomorrow you will lead the vanguard and clear the filth for my temple?"
Bai Yinan is young and vigorous, but his temperament is a tendon, and he didn't seem to hear the meaning of Jin Yun's beautiful words, so he immediately hugged his fists and responded: "I will live up to my high hopes......
Bai Hongyi saw that his son had entered the pit stupidly like this, and he was naturally unhappy, he coughed lightly and interrupted the two, "I don't know what your Excellency means by this move, since you have already left the customs, why not show your authority in the open air and go straight to Nanjin?"
"Be careful!"
Jin Yunmei was shocked when she heard this, and said solemnly: "Your Excellency's thoughts, how can you and I be able to speculate at will, since there is such an arrangement, we just need to follow it!"
Bai Hongyi nodded, and then turned his head to look at the eldest son who was triumphant with the leader of the vanguard, and his expression changed for a while.
......
Early the next morning, facing the rising sun, the two sides once again set up their positions, as the leader of the battle: the Holy Venerable, but still did not appear. The coalition side was worried, and the Southern Army was no better.
On the handsome platform, the war drums had already beaten three rounds, and the generals of Wan Ze and Xiling were all standing here, dozens of pairs of eyes staring at the Wan Ze Realm Lord in the middle, who was richly dressed and had a calm face like water.
"You don't have to look at me, it's a good thing that the Holy Venerable doesn't come out. ”
Li Jin paused for a moment, and suddenly walked to the side of the handsome platform, facing the thousands of troops and horses in front of the stage, and said in a loud voice: "Throughout history, how can I Wanze sin because the Holy Venerable covets my elixir forbidden land, and completely disregards the life and death of the world, if the elixir garden is handed over to the temple, it can indeed be exchanged for a moment of peace, but in this way, my Wanze will no longer have the birth of elixir treasures, and the cultivators will no longer have the possibility of breaking through.
"Is it a war?"
"Or is it down?"
The more Li Jin spoke, the more excited she became, and her words were impassioned, and her chest rose and fell violently, and a strange flush appeared on her cheeks in the fiery sun.
Who is willing to be ordinary?
Who wants their children and grandchildren to decline more and more?
Tens of thousands of soldiers were excited and high-spirited, shouting to release the fear brought by the Holy Venerable, "Fight, fight, fight, fight......"
For a long time, Southern Xinjiang has to pay tribute to the temple every year, most of the products produced in the Elixir Garden have to be presented to the Holy Venerable, and the few who remain belong to the cultivators of the Wanze Realm, but such a concession has not been exchanged for the mercy of the Holy Venerable, but has intensified, and now it wants to ruin their hope!
How can they endure this?
Seeing that the soldiers in the audience were united and their morale was high, Li Jin suddenly smiled, although she was middle-aged, her charm still existed, after laughing, she turned around suddenly, waved her long sleeves, and said sharply: "Prepare for war!"
Just like yesterday, the various arms of the army relied on each other and spread out on the ground in an orderly manner, but the difference was that it was the coalition army that took the lead in attacking today, and even the academy army where Cheng Xiaoxi and the others were located also went to the battlefield, and this army, which was composed entirely of cultivators, would exert unexpected power.
There is no joke in the army, Bai Yinan led the vanguard commander last night, and today he really rode a high-headed horse, standing in the vanguard formation, and before the Chinese army issued a battle order, the opposing coalition suddenly broke out with a shocking roar, and after a while, they lined up in formation, but counterattacked towards their own side.
"Who gave them the guts, did they really think that yesterday's small victory would be able to ignore my temple might?"
"Rush for me!"
As soon as he pulled the reins, Bai Yinan's right hand was raised, and before the order of the Chinese army came, he led his 10,000 vanguard troops to meet the coalition formation.
The 10,000 vanguard troops were all heavily armored infantry, following behind Bai Yinan's war horse, the formation was spread out more than 100 zhang, they were well-equipped, heavily armored, and they also wore white bright battle helmets on their heads, leaving only a pair of eyes to see.
Bai Yinan rushed to the front, and the war horse gradually accelerated, and soon opened a distance from the army behind him, with only eight escort cavalry still following him.
In the middle army of the Southern Army, Jin Yunmei and a few people had just walked onto the viewing platform, and when they saw the situation in front of the battle clearly, Bai Hongyi's legs were weak, his body was deviated, his complexion suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Waste! Why did I give birth to such a waste thing!"
Seeing that the vanguard army was about to collide with the vanguard of the coalition army, Jin Yunmei's big face was also wrinkled, and she called her entourage and said solemnly: "Press up." ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at Bai Hongyi's miserable face, and added, "Send a few strong men to bring Bai Yinan back." ”
The entourage bowed and retreated, Jin Yunmei issued several orders in a row, and in the face of the counterattack of the coalition forces, he also felt a mountain of pressure, and he could not take it lightly.
After Bai Hongyi scolded, he stood on the stage in a daze, and waited until Jin Yunmei was idle, then he sighed and said weakly: "Brother Jin, Bai will come when he goes." ”
Watching Bai Hongyi walk down the viewing platform quickly, riding a war horse and sweeping towards the front of the formation, Jin Yunmei's fat face laughed strangely, and after a few breaths, he ordered to the audience: "Jun'er, bring some people to help, this old ghost can't make any mistakes, otherwise it will be difficult to blame the honorable one." ”
In front of the viewing platform, Jin Jun nodded, and then led a team of people to run towards the front of the battle.
Looking at the coalition forces again, Li Jin on the handsome platform pointed to Bai Yinan, who was galloping forward, and said, "Isn't this son Bai Hongyi's eldest son?
Wang Yue, Qin Zhongtian, Zuo Fu and others were all full of questions, it is said that in such a big battle, with the character of the white old ghost, he would definitely not let his family be in danger, could it be the plan of the temple?
Qin Zhongtian and Master Zuofu pondered for a moment, and then took a step forward at the same time, Qin Zhongtian said: "Lord, let me go and capture him and frustrate the enemy's spirit!"
"I'll go with Brother Qin, so I can take care of it. Beside Qin Zhongtian, the Venerable Zuo Fu nodded slightly, and also spoke.
Li Jin looked at Bai Yinan's side and rode a few horses, his brows gradually expanded, and he said softly: "If there is any change, retreat immediately." ”
......
Bai Yinan, as the son of the Bai family, has been clothed and fed since he was a child, his eyes are above the top, relying on his excellent talent and the rich resources given by the family, so the road of cultivation is smooth, only more than 30 years old, he is already in the middle of the realm, and he is also a famous existence in the entire Rock City. This time, he led the vanguard leader, and he wanted to show his public wealth in front of the world, so as to establish his supreme prestige of the Bai family.
