Chapter 314: For Our Home
"Poof!" Shangguan Invincible stabbed a retreating monk to death with a spear, and he shouted loudly: "No retreat, no retreat, who told you to retreat? Go back, give me back!"
"Invincible general, retreat is the general trend now, you can't kill one or two people to have any deterrent effect, the soldiers are too tired, it's better to rest and rest before attacking the city." The blue snake on the side looked at the monks lying on the ground and panted around them, and whispered.
"No, it's really a bunch of waste, there are only hundreds of thousands of monks from the Fog Seeking Alliance on the other side, and they are all female cultivators, our army of three million, we have not captured this city for two days and one night? Is this what people do? Get up and continue to attack the city!" Shangguan was so invincible that he jumped to his feet, but the monks who had withdrawn around him were lying on the ground and looked like dead pigs were not afraid of boiling water, and they didn't even look at him.
"Alas!" Shangguan Invincible looked around and said heavily: "The concubine is not enough and strategic!" Bi Snake on the side smiled disdainfully in his heart, he now despises this Shangguan Invincible even more, the most important thing in a war is morale.
The uninterrupted siege of the city for two days and one night was a heavy blow to morale, and the soldiers took the initiative to retreat is an omen, they are now lying on the ground panting, as the commander of the whole army, Shangguan Invincible actually didn't think about how to restore morale and combat effectiveness but sneered here, isn't this pouring salt on the wounds of the soldiers?
Sure enough, the surrounding Alliance Army monks listened to Shangguan Invincible's words and slowly got up and walked slowly in other directions, they had nothing, no supply of spirit stone pills, only themselves, and most of the things they captured from the battlefield had to be handed over, and the remaining little was their own.
On the other side, there was a burst of aroma on the wall of the Fog Seeking Alliance, Xu Hao had just secretly instructed Ji Sen to prepare some mutton soup, although the monk could already open the valley, but if he could come to a bowl of hot mutton soup at this time, he could greatly eliminate the fatigue of his body.
The mortals in Qingshui City have all been transferred, and there are monks from the Mist Seeking Alliance everywhere, and there are materials in Ji Sen's storage bag, but he just doesn't know who to find to do it with, after all, everyone is very tired now, Ji Sen doesn't want to trouble anyone, he has no choice but to make his own mutton soup when Xu Hao walked down.
During the war, everything was simple, Xu Hao directly found a few broken houses to use the beams as fuel, and then found a semi-circular style of protective magic weapon to make a pot.
One pot obviously can't make mutton soup for so many people, Xu Hao and Ji Sen found more than twenty protective magic weapons that can barely be used as pots in the storage bag, there are small bells, small dings, and bowls, all of which are as big as a small house through mana, and such a big twenty pots are enough for hundreds of thousands of people to share a bowl of mutton soup.
Xu Hao asked Ji Sen to fetch water, and he went to prepare materials, the mortals in Qingshui City moved very cleanly, and they took away everything they could take, but they were too lazy to bring things like salt, so Xu Hao found a lot of salt, and as for the mutton, Xu Hao rummaged through his storage bag.
There are a lot of things in his storage bag, there are still several large pieces of earth dragon meat some time ago, as well as the yellow mutton before, although these are enough for Xu Hao, but he now has to cook for hundreds of thousands of people, these are far from enough, his divine sense expanded to rummage in those houses, and found that there are still many things in many houses.
Xu Hao shook his sleeves, and suddenly those people's dishes, chopsticks, chickens, ducks, beef and mutton were swept away by him, especially wine, when he was in the northern Xinjiang, if the mortal soldiers were going out on the expedition, they would definitely drink, Xu Hao naturally felt that he had to bring wine, so he brought enough wine when he came out of Spring City this time, which was in Ji Sen's storage bag.
Soon Ji Sen brought the water back, there is a lot of well water in the city, and Qingshui City is famous for its clear water source, and it even carries a lot of aura.
A small fireball was thrown down and the beam of the house placed under the magic weapon was ignited, Xu Hao and Ji Sen used spells to levitate in the sky, and kept throwing all kinds of meat into it, pure mutton is really not enough for so many people to eat, as for the seasoning, only salt is put in it, and Xu Hao only found salt.
Soon more than 20 cauldrons were boiling, and the aroma wafted out far and wide, and the Fog Seeking Alliance arranged a glowing formation at the highest place in the city, so people could see the surroundings clearly, and the people who were resting on the city wall were very moved when they looked at Xu Hao and Ji Sen busy, the alliance leader and the commander of the Xuanwu Battalion were cooking something for them to eat, you must know that they have also fought until now.
Xu Hao took out a bowl and tasted it, and said to Ji Sen: "It's a little light, but it's okay, you can taste it too!"
"It's a little light, but the meat is fragrant, I think it's pretty good!" Ji Sen said with a light look in his eyes after tasting it.
"Okay, you let the Qinglong Battalion send five hundred people to collect water tanks and chopsticks in the city, and the big guy can feel more comfortable after drinking the broth after being so tired. Xu Hao commanded.
"Yes!" Ji Sen promised and disappeared with a flash, and the people of the Qinglong Camp were excited one by one when they knew that they were going to eat something delicious, and they had never been so excited as monks because of this bowl of broth.
Fifty people directly found more than a thousand large water tanks, each water tank was filled with broth, and then placed evenly on the four city walls, the monks were originally meditating and resting, but at this time, one by one, smelling the fragrance of the broth, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva secretly.
The Qinglong Camp of the chopsticks found a lot of them, and put them on the side of the water tank, and at this moment people were looking at Xu Hao, just waiting for him to say a word, and they were about to eat.
Xu Hao looked at the appearance of everyone and felt ashamed in his heart, it was not easy for this group of people to be born and die for themselves, he was suspended in mid-air, and his voice spread in all directions with aura, and even Shangguan Invincible could hear it.
"Brothers, we have just experienced a bad battle, but the result is very good, you are usually weak women, but this time you have really shown me what it means to be a woman who does not let her eyebrows go.
Once upon a time, you were proud to have joined the Mist Seeking Alliance, but now on behalf of the Mist Seeking Alliance and all of you, I would like to say from the bottom of my heart that the Mist Seeking Alliance is proud of your joining and proud of the existence of your tenacious family members!
Behind us is our home, after this battle, our Mist Seeking Alliance will have a new decree promulgated, now I can reveal to you, all the monks of the Mist Seeking Alliance who have participated in this war or who have joined the Mist Seeking Alliance for three hundred years, you will be taken care of by the Mist Seeking Alliance for the rest of your life.
You will have children, or there are parents who can come to the Fog Seeking Alliance to live, the Fog Seeking Alliance is everyone's home, they are not only your children's parents, but also mine, now we are fighting this battle for nothing else, just for the home behind us, and I can tell you in advance that our Fog Seeking Alliance will win this battle!"
"Victory, victory!" All the monks have tears in their eyes, the monks are also people, as long as people hear the word "home", their hearts will tremble, they have been mercenaries and scattered cultivators for so many years, and now they finally have a home, the Fog Seeking Alliance is their home, everyone is bloodstained, I don't know if it is the enemy's or their own, but now their eyes are all sparkling, Xu Hao's words are obviously very useful to them.
"Okay, don't stand, I made this broth, I don't know how to cook, I just hope to relieve a little fatigue for everyone, everyone will drink it, I still have a lot of wine here for everyone to drink, and after this battle is over, I will hold a vigorous celebration banquet for you, and then you will not get drunk and not return!" Xu Hao laughed and said.
"Hahaha!" All the people of the Mist Seeking Alliance on the city wall also laughed, and with Xu Hao's words, they felt full of strength and their hearts were warm.
Seeing that everyone began to serve soup Xu Hao smiled, this group of lovely people, I don't know how many people will be lost in the next war, the army of monks of the nine families will not come in ten days and half a month, and it is not known whether they will come to their side first or go to Xu Mou's side first, this war will still be fought. Xu Hao looked at the bright moon and stars in the sky, and his heart was a little imaginative.
"Ah, it's so fragrant, hey, Lao Liu, did you hear that? The leader of the Mist Seeking Alliance personally cooked for those monks under him, I really couldn't imagine that a dignified sect master could do such a thing, it's really good." One of the Confederate monks swallowed, then patted his companion and said.
"Who says it's not, no wonder the Mist Seeker Alliance has developed so fast, how can this alliance leader be so good and unpopular? We are miserable, in addition to the things that have been seized to be handed over, the aspect of rewards is the same as my legs - there is no hair!" The monk could also smell the smell of broth, and he was sitting on the ground at the moment touching his legs and saying angrily, I don't know why, he didn't have a single hair on his body except for his hair.
At this moment, there are countless people on the side of the alliance army who are smelling the fragrance of the broth and angrily scolding Shangguan Invincible, almost accounting for more than half, Bi Snake also swallowed his saliva, he sighed, Shangguan Invincible is really much worse than the alliance leader of the Mist Seeking Alliance, in his opinion, Shangguan Invincible is just a horseman, as for the alliance leader of the Mist Seeking Alliance, he seems to have had a relationship with him in the ancient battlefield.
"Hmph, someone is spreading rumors behind our backs to disturb our army's heart, right? Check, go check on me immediately, once you find out who is disturbing the army's heart, you will be killed on the spot!" Shangguan Invincible said to the pro-army beside him with a blue face.
"Yes!" Shangguan Invincible's pro-army immediately went down to look around for people who said bad things about Shangguan Invincible, and at this time they could also take the opportunity to make a profit, you must know that Shangguan's invincible pro-army only needs to follow Shangguan Invincible, and there is no need to go into battle, so naturally there is nothing to gain.
Now with this opportunity, if anyone gives them benefits, even if they say bad things, they don't say anything, and if they don't give benefits, they can say it even if they don't say it, and everything is just on their lips.
At this moment, the fighting spirit in the alliance army is already very slack, the commander is ruthless, coupled with the exploitation of the pro-army, and compared with the opposite Fog Seeking Alliance, they feel that there is no point in fighting this battle, they already have their own factions that are not familiar with each other and are not close to each other, and they can't go together at all, millions of people are resting in a mess under Qingshui City, everyone has something on their minds, and they don't know what they are thinking.
"Bi Snake, you go and count, how are our casualties in this battle?" Shangguan Invincible was cultivating cross-legged, he suddenly opened his eyes and said to Bi Snake.
