Sikong Zun did not let Ling Xiao choose the regular army.

But it doesn't matter, Ling Xiao's Iron Mask Army is not inferior to the Divine Phoenix Soldiers, or even better.

As the saying goes, Ling Xiao didn't plan to pick others anymore, and when he arrived in the Northern Desert City, he would take Qin Huo and Qingxu Academy under his control.

"This is an opportunity you don't cherish, don't blame Ben Shuai for not giving you a chance!

Sikong Zun sneered, since Ling Xiao had no intention of choosing, let him be a bare-pole centurion.

He was pleased.

Of the 100,000 soldiers in the imperial city battalion, 80,000 were finally opened, and the remaining 20,000 were reserved for guarding.

After all, the Imperial City Camp is related to the safety of the Imperial City, and it is impossible to leave it all.

The army left the camp in a mighty way, and as they walked, they felt the earth tremble slightly.

Eighty thousand people have such a terrible coercion, if according to the ancient books, the True Demon Empire invaded the Holy Dynasty with a million troops at every turn, what kind of terrifying scene it was.

Sure enough, there are still some differences between this military brigade and the rivers and lakes.

……

Ten days later, on the avenue close to Beimo City, a long dragon appeared!

A long army of troops.

As they walked, the beasts avoided and did not dare to approach.

The yellow sand was flying in the sky, obscuring the sky and the sun, and it was impossible to get close to this army, as if there was an invisible wall separating these things.

This army is the conquest army headed by Sikong Zun.

Except for the 20,000 people of the Wild Bear Knights and the 10,000 people of the Phoenix Bird Knights, the rest of the soldiers were all on foot.

However, among these soldiers, the worst cultivators were all Transcendent Realm martial artists, so even if they traveled on foot, it would not be a problem for them.

At the front of the team, of course, there are the three coaches and deputy coaches of Sikong Zun, Feng Qingyan, and Lu Chenglong.

And then there are the Knights of the Bears.

As for the Phoenix Bird Knights, they are advancing in the air, and at the same time, they can keep an eye on the situation around them at any time.

However, Ling Xiao and the others were not in the army.

They were arranged by Sikong Zun as scouts to check the situation at the forefront.

That is, the privilege of having the right to act expeditiously, otherwise, Ling Xiao would probably have to be tortured to death by Sikong Zun.

Relying on the privilege of acting expediently, Ling Xiao did not come back after he went out, and he was always within a mile of the army, and it was not up to him to decide what he wanted to do.

Sikong Zun didn't equip them with mounts, but this was not a problem for Ling Xiao.

He had been wary of this for a long time, so he hid a dozen of the best dragon horses in the Beast Ring.

It is rumored that because of the blood of the dragon clan, the dragon horse is very brave in battle, and he will not be afraid of the beasts, which is much better than the average war horse.

Several people rode on the dragon horse, moving forward leisurely.

Ling Xiao unleashed his soul power and opened the Eye of the World, fully aware of the situation around him.

The sun was in the air, and the air was distorted and deformed by the blazing heat.

This sandy northern desert is full of thirst and scorching heat, and to be honest, it is really not a suitable place for living creatures.

"The front is the Northern Desert City, and the good days of Sikong Zun's old thing are over. ”

Ling Xiao sneered, Sikong Zun had been making trouble for him along the way.

He basically put up with it.

If your strength is not as good as that of others, you have to endure it.

But after arriving in Beimo City, with Ji Ning there, Sikong Zun didn't dare to touch him at all.

What's more, although Sikong Zun is the commander of the army this time, Ji Ning is the city lord of Beimo City, the general of the border, whether it is merit or position, it is above Sikong Zun, even if Ji Ning doesn't listen to Sikong Zun, Sikong Zun has no way.

"Shall we go in and say hello?"

Leng Mei asked.

"No, let's wait, save Sikong Zun's old dog from looking for trouble again. ”

Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "Although I also want to see Ji Ning, Qin Huo and the others, but at the moment, we are still under Sikong Zun's subordinates, so as not to be punished by someone who finds an excuse, it will not be cost-effective." ”

After receiving Ryoma, a few people sat in the shade to rest, Beimo City is close to the oasis, so there are more plants, and under the huge cactus, it is still quite cool.

It took about half an hour for the army to come slowly.

After a long journey, even the army of warriors was obviously exhausted from coming to this difficult place.

So they're slow, and they're a little bit unmotivated.

"See the coach of the sky, the two lieutenants, we have investigated the situation in the vicinity, and there are no suspicious people, etc. ”

Ling Xiao thousands reported.

"Hmph, you're at ease. ”

Sikong Zun snorted coldly, although he wanted to find trouble, but he couldn't find it, so he could only look at the Northern Desert City that looked a little dilapidated.

On the top of the castle tower, there are soldiers guarding it.

Their eyes were warily cast on the army beneath the city, and they seemed ready for battle at any moment.

"Don't open the city gate quickly, and the general of the expedition, Sikong Zun, will lead the army to come!"

One rode forward on a brute bear beast and shouted at the castle tower, while showing his waist card.

"Wait, I'll report!"

Above the castle tower, someone responded, and then ran downstairs.

It was a long time before he reappeared.

"The general said that he had never heard of Sikong Zun, the general of the expedition to the north, and he had not received the will of the imperial court, so he could not easily open the city gate. ”

Bastard!

Sikong Zun's face suddenly turned cold, and he shouted angrily: "This handsome is Sikong Zun, and he has the emperor's holy decree in his hand, let Ji Ning come out to receive the decree!"

"The general is busy discussing the enemy's strategy, and he has no time!"

The castle tower responded.

There are not many garrisons in Beimo City, only 30,000.

This point of garrison, replaced by someone else, I am afraid that it will have been ended by the Crow Empire, that is, Ji Ning, who can rely on such a few soldiers to hold the border and repel the enemy's attacks again and again.

The main reason for the lack of soldiers was not death in battle, but the continuous weakening of the imperial court.

Even the Northern Desert City has no distribution of troops all year round, so it can only be recruited from the small place of the Northern Desert, or those heroes voluntarily take refuge.

Therefore, in the Northern Desert City, there is only Ji Ning in the eyes of the soldiers, and there is no Shenhuang Imperial Court.

They were guarding here, not for the emperor who was enjoying himself in the imperial city, not for the sake of the nobles, but for the sake of the people behind them.

So if Sikong Zun used the emperor to suppress them, it would have no effect at all.

"Hmph, Ji Ning is really bold, is there still an emperor in his eyes, is there a royal law? I have long heard that he has a rebellious heart, and he actually led troops to break into the imperial city in the past, if it weren't for the emperor's mercy, he would have been sentenced to death a long time ago.

I didn't expect that not only did I not appreciate it today, but I also wanted to block Wang Shi from Beimo City, and wanted to rebel?"

Sikong Zun snorted coldly.

"The boss doesn't dare to say this. ”

Lu Chenglong opened his mouth and said: "General Ji Ning is a great hero who once helped the Feng clan regain the throne, and then he has guarded the northern border for more than ten years, and he has made countless contributions, how could he betray?"
