"Which hand is Zhang Yuan's little brute playing?" Shang Cheng slammed the table angrily when he heard his men's report.

Within three days, Li Qiang led the army of southern Xinjiang to conquer more than 40 cities, and the army of the Shang family was invincible, and even some of the army of the Shang family surrendered to the army of southern Xinjiang without resistance, which shocked the entire southern Xinjiang.

At this time, the Shang family's army was shaken, except for some loyal Shang family guards who were still maintaining order in the Shang family's army, but many people were already shaken and secretly left the Shang family's army, and no one wanted to throw away their lives in vain. The speculative lords in some places also took the opportunity to withdraw their troops in support of the Shang family.

"He withdrew the army a few days ago, and sent the army back in the past few days, does he want to die?" Shang Cheng gritted his teeth and squeezed this sentence out between his teeth.

Shang Ling closed his eyes and meditated on the side, and heard Shang Cheng constantly complaining, so he said: "I think, it is impossible for no one to know about his people in southern Xinjiang, and there is such an existence as me in the Shang family, and after being reminded by these people, I can only withdraw my troops in a gloomy manner." ”

Shang Cheng scratched his head and expressed puzzlement: "No, then why are they approaching Nanyang City again, they obviously have no one to deal with your old man, is this a thousand miles to send him to death?"

Shang Ling thought for a while, looked at the place outside the window where there was no one, and slowly spoke: "I think there are no more than three reasons why they have made such a move. ”

"First, on the surface, they are constantly attacking the city and breaking up our forces, but in fact they are luring the snake out of the hole, forcing me to show up, and then using some means that we don't know about. ”

"Second, they attracted the attention of those hidden world sects, and with heavy bribes, they invited the strong people over there, the strong people over there, but they all started in the extreme realm. ”

"Third, that is, Zhang Yuan, this kid has digested what was brought out of the ruins, his strength has increased greatly, and he is a little arrogant, and he is not afraid of me, a bad old man, at all, so he sent troops to provoke me. ”

Shang Cheng suddenly realized when he heard this, and couldn't help but praise his own think tank, and the head of analysis was the Tao. "So, that's why you're not moving?"

Shang Ling nodded, and said confidently, "Yes, no matter what the situation is, we should not act rashly, we should stay in our lair so that we will not let the opponent take advantage of it." We shrank our forces and arranged them in Nanyang City, waiting for them to besiege !!!"

Shang Cheng nodded, turned and went out.

Nanjiang carried the banner of Nangong Qi, and let Nangong Qi command the battle as the former and current princesses of Nanjiang, and the people of Nanjiang recruited by the Shang family were unwilling to bear the charge of murdering the princess, and surrendered when they saw the Nanjiang army, so that the Nanjiang army was even more overwhelming.

At the same time, the Shang family guards from all over the country were secretly fleeing, and they all headed towards the same destination - Nanyang City, and no one in the southern Xinjiang army, which was immersed in the brilliant results, noticed this, but only vented their anger to their compatriots in the siege battle.

"You can't fight like this, it's just slaughtering your own people, we don't want the heads of these people, just surround them directly, and then force them to surrender. "Tiangang discovered this problem after inspecting the battlefield once, so he reported the matter to Netherworld and Nangong Qi.

"Well, give the order, since the Shang family has shrunk its forces, we can't die on internal friction!!!" Netherworld nodded.

Soon, a large number of southern Xinjiang troops surrounded cities layer by layer, adopting the method of besieging but not attacking, and eating away at the Shang family's cities like boiled frogs, and soon, half of the southern Xinjiang controlled by the Shang family fell back into the hands of southern Xinjiang.

Nanyang City, Shang Family.

In a large but dimly lit room, only the faint light of a small kerosene lamp flickered on a table, and under the light, an old man with scruffy hair could be faintly seen crouching on the table and fiddling with something.

"How is it, has the matter I handed over to you done?" a voice sounded behind the old man.

"Who?" the old man seemed to be very focused on what he was holding in his hand, startled.

"It's nothing, it's me, Shang Cheng. The dim light shone a swollen shadow in this small room, it was Shang Cheng.

"Do you mean that girl?" the old man sighed when he saw that it was him.

"Yes, living puppet, how is your second test subject?" Shang Cheng smiled sinisterly.

"The experiment has been successful, my chip is no longer just the chip that can only destroy people's faces and erase memories, it is a chip that can really control people, but ......" The stinky old man seems to have some concerns.

"What's wrong, is it a tricky situation?" Shang Cheng frowned slightly, it seemed that this news was not the news he was satisfied with.

"Not really, it's that my chip hasn't been completely successful yet, this living puppet will retain some of its memories and intelligence before it was alive, that is to say, this puppet is not a dead creature in a sense, but a living life, even if it is given an order, it will carry out it with emotions, and its effect should not be as good as the previous puppet. The stinky old man covered his forehead and said.

"Oh, you don't have to worry, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, I just need this living puppet itself, I want to see it in my practice room before noon tomorrow, otherwise, ......" Shang Cheng's tone gradually turned cold, and he walked away.

The stinky old man looked down at the red crystal-like chip on his workbench and fell into deep thought.

……

A few days later, the army of southern Xinjiang finally recovered almost all the cities, and in the entire territory of southern Xinjiang, only a lonely city such as Nanyang City was not recovered, so hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers surrounded the three outer layers of Nanyang City. However, the army in southern Xinjiang had no intention of launching a general offensive.

On the city wall, the loyal guards of the Shang family were keeping an eye on the further movements of the southern Xinjiang army under the city, ready to report to the Shang family's high-level at any time. It was not the soldiers of the Shang family who were waiting for them inside the city walls, but the steel-like puppets one by one, waiting for the Shang family's orders all the time.

Outside the city walls, in the large camp of the southern Xinjiang army

"Now, we need to think about how to attack Nanyang City!!!" Nangong Qi looked at the silent crowd and banged on the table vigorously. But only silence in silence responded to her.

In fact, Netherworld Tiangang and Zhang Yuan were not deliberately silent, but there was no way, they began to think about how to attack Nanyang City from the beginning of the counterattack in Nanjiang, but the more they thought about it, the more they worried, and in the end they did not discuss a specific plan to attack Nanyang City.

The conditions of Nanyang City are complicated, first of all, this is the capital of southern Xinjiang, and it is necessary to avoid destroying the city as much as possible when attacking the city. Secondly, there are a large number of civilians in the city, these people are innocent people in southern Xinjiang, and they cannot be eliminated together as Shang family; third, the walls of Nanyang City are stronger than Nanyin City, and the strong attack is likely to be ineffective.

In the end, there are two important reasons in the high-level duel, their ignorance of Shangcheng and their fear that Lin Yuhan will become the opponent's bargaining chip......

"Let's sneak attack, like the last attack on Nanyin City!!!" Li Qiang proposed.

"Are you a pig brain, how did we sneak attack this time, who doesn't know us!!!" A Man on the side scolded.

"No, you can't storm !!!" Zhang Yuan also objected, "A strong attack is the most incompetent performance of the commander." ”

"Then you should come up with your plan!!!" Nangong Qi was dissatisfied, she had never liked violent methods, and this time she actually supported the storming of Nanyang City without scruples.

"I support the assault, although this will cause huge losses, but if we take care of so many things, it will lead to heavy losses for my army in southern Xinjiang, this is more than worth the loss, we might as well simply choose to sacrifice Nanyang City. I don't joke with the lives of the good sons and daughters of southern Xinjiang. Nangong Qi's expression was firm.

"Concentrate heavy firepower, bombard major targets in Nanyang City, if the master of the Shang family blocks it, hand it over to Zhang Yuan and Big Brother Tiangang, and attack the city with one blow!!!" Nangong Qi put her hands on the edge of the table, but it was still the silence of everyone who responded to her.

"Princess, I remember that you promised me to help me rescue Yuhan. Zhang Yuan wiped his forehead painfully and said in a low voice.

"Yes, but I didn't say that I wanted the army to kill Yuhan. Nangong Qi's voice softened.

"On the battlefield, the sword and gun have no eyes, if she can't protect her, she will be killed, she is just a weak woman, even if she becomes a puppet, how much artillery fire and true qi can she withstand?" Zhang Yuan's voice was still low.

"I know...... Then you might as well come up with a plan!!!" Nangong Qi jumped back into his seat in anger, muttering and sulking.

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Yuan finally spoke: "I have decided, this time it will be up to me, my affairs, this time I will solve it by myself, I will save Yuhan !!! with my own hands."

"What do you mean?" the ghost stared at Zhang Yuan with unkind eyes.

"This is my private matter, I went to save Yuhan alone, and the consequences of success or failure are borne by me alone. Zhang Yuan stood up, his eyes full of determination.

"Nonsense, you sit down for me, why should you bear all the consequences yourself, if you die, we will be completely finished. How can this be your own business!!!" the Netherworld shouted.

"The two of you are now the powerhouses of the Jindan Realm, Shang Ling, that old guy estimates that the time is not long, you can't chase for a long time, your opponent is just Shang Cheng, with your cooperation, you in the Jindan Realm should be able to fight with him, enough to protect yourself. Zhang Yuan smiled and explained to Netherworld and Tiangang.

"I'm sorry Yuhan, if I can't save her, then what face do I have to propose to her?Man, you should take your own responsibility, if I can't even save the woman I love, what am I still alive for!!!" Zhang Yuan had made up his mind, and his firm eyes looked at the dark eyes in a trance.

Zhang Yuan once again assumed the position of operational commander: "The day after tomorrow, all the troops entered the combat position, aimed all the artillery fire at the defenders on the city wall, and prepared to attack. In this attack, because we have an absolute advantage, we have evenly distributed our forces on all sides, and all places are the main attack!!!"

"Tomorrow night, I will sneak into this city, if it goes well, I will bring Lin Yuhan back, so that these guys do not threaten my hole cards, and when I withdraw from it, the general attack will start immediately, if there is a strong person of the Shang family above the middle stage of the transformation of strength, it will be handed over to the two eldest brothers of Netherworld and Tiangang, Li Qiang, Yang Yangming, and Princess Nangong and A Man to deal with, including Shang Cheng. ”

"As for Shang Ling, this old thing, leave it to me, no matter how strong he is, he is about to enter the earth, I will definitely take off his head this time to comfort the deceased king. Ladies and gentlemen, whether Nanyang City can be recovered depends on this battle the day after tomorrow, please encourage you!!!" Zhang Yuan bowed to the military leaders in southern Xinjiang and left the camp calmly.

The military high-level in southern Xinjiang looked at each other and did not know what to do.

"Let him go, young people should have some backbone, I admire this kid, he is better than me back then. Tiangang smiled bitterly.

Zhang Yuan was walking towards his tent, the big battle was imminent, he had to adjust his state, he couldn't let himself be unprepared to face a strong man who was likely to be at the peak of the Jindan realm.

"Zhang Yuan, have you really decided?" At this time, a familiar woman's voice sounded.
