Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong galloped into Zuojin Valley on horseback, and saw a river of blood flowing at the mouth of the valley and a mountain of corpses. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Slowly riding his horse, Tu Ziji counted that in addition to more than 3,000 wounded prisoners of war, there were almost 3,000 poorly armored corpses piled up near the valley mouth, but he didn't expect that the Seventh Capital had harvested so many lives at the first try, and his own casualties were minimal.

Zhou Jun and Ran Hu led the first and second battalions into the Zuojin Valley with Chen Hai; Fan Cheng led 500 elite troops to attack the high cliff and suffered many casualties.

With Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong, they rushed to the seventh battalion and also temporarily stayed outside the valley mouth to rest, Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong were surrounded by Hu Wei and rode their horses through Zuojin Valley to meet Chen Hai.

Chen Hai stopped at a low ridge outside the north entrance of Zuojin Valley, looking at the rolling mountains to the north.

Crossing the Zuojin Valley is the boundary of Tongbei Mansion, although the realm of Tongbei Mansion is also a continuous mountain, but compared with the surrounding steep mountains and mountains, the relative height of the mountains in Tongbei Mansion is only three or five hundred meters, which can only be regarded as a small mound.

At the same time, the rivers and lakes are vertical and horizontal, dense, and the climate is warm and moist, even if the counties are in a great wilderness year after year, Tongbei Mansion is also smooth and rainy, as if it is a paradise.

However, the general trend of the world affected the whole body, and Tongbei Mansion was not able to stay out of the matter, when a million rebels and 50,000 generals of the Xiyuan Army poured in, the peace of this paradise was completely shattered.

Chen Hai's goal on their trip is Zuojin Valley, and now they have successfully captured Zuojin Valley, Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong rushed over to join Chen Hai, and the first thing to discuss is how to set up camp.

Zuojin Valley is a well-known gateway dangerous place, but the scope is not large, the north and south are eleven or twelve miles long, the canyon is even more narrow, the narrowest place is actually a cave through the mountain that only four or five horses pass, as if the eye of heaven is embedded in the deep mountains; the two walls are thousands of meters high cliffs stand dangerously, and they will fall down at any time.

With such a steep terrain, Chen Hai and the others could not directly set up the camp in the Zuojin Valley.

Before deploying a strong enough defensive array, the enemy can bury all the men and horses in the canyon alive by shaking the ground and collapsing the stone cliffs on both sides.

Chen Hai planned to build two large battalions outside the north and south entrances of Zuojin Valley, with the northern camp as the main camp to build a defensive line, while the southern camp mainly accepted 5,000 people led by Ge Tong, Cen Yunfei, Ding Shuang, Cao Shan, and others, and used each other as horns as a backup.

The five thousand people are less than two hundred miles away from Zuojin Valley at this time, hurry up, and they should be able to rush to Zuojin Valley before nightfall tomorrow, but there will be no more reinforcements in the direction of Qintong Pass in a short period of time to rush over in time.

Although tens of thousands of people have crossed the Qintong Pass and marched westward, but this group of people did not have enough chariots and horses to travel, and lacked effective training, under the leadership of Cao Feng and others, they could reach Zuojin Valley within a month, even if they moved quickly.

The spirit bird reconnaissance that flew into the blue sky showed that a large number of rebels fled into the treacherous mountains on both flanks, but they did not stay away, and it seemed that they still wanted to wait for the Xiyuan army in front of them to penetrate deep into Tongbei Mansion before recapturing Zuojin Valley.

Away from the Zuojin Valley, all that was left between the lofty mountains and mountains on both flanks was a treacherous path, and there was no way to deploy troops.

Before the more than 100 elites of the Red Mei Sect led by the Black Armor General and Goatee did not withdraw, Chen Hai could not disperse his forces to pursue these fleeing rebels.

Their immediate priority was not to pursue the rebels, nor to rush to join up with Wei Yuzhi, but to establish a defensive line and gain a firm foothold in the Zuojin Valley to meet the remnants of the Xiyuan Army, which could flee on a large scale to the north at any moment, and the main rebel force that would then rush towards them like a tide of rage.

"The cities of Tongbei Prefecture have not completely fallen, and after Wei Yu led his troops into Tongbei, even the lost prefectures and counties have been recovered one after another, and there are more or less weapons available in the locality, is it a herald to order the local military preparations to gather in Zuojin Valley?" Tu Ziji asked.

"Before Wei Yuqi is defeated, who will pay attention to our military orders?"

Chen Hai pouted and smiled, Tu Ziji's idea was very good, if the local military equipment could gather in Zuojin Valley, it would indeed greatly make up for their lack of troops at this time, but it was unrealistic at present, and said,

"However, it is still necessary to send people to inform the locality, and even exaggerate our troops, so that when the main force of the Xiyuan Army led by Wei Yu was defeated, the prefectures and counties thought that the general trend had gone, so they surrendered to the rebels one after another. Even if they hold on to the city, they will still be able to contain some of the rebels' forces. ”

Tu Ziji thought about it, and immediately arranged for messengers to gallop to the remaining prefectures and counties of Tongbei Prefecture non-stop, and at the same time sent people to report to those cities where the township was powerful, so as to strengthen the fighting spirit of the officials and people in these places, lest they easily surrender to the rebels of the displaced people.

Of course, Chen Hai would not forget to let Tu Ziji directly release the spirit hoop to report to Wei Yuzhi.

Seeing that the small spirit hoo flew into the clouds in the blink of an eye, Chen Hai turned his horse's head, and was about to return to Zuojin Valley with Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong to gather the details of the generals to order the camp, when suddenly the earth shook violently, and for a while the cliffs cracked, the rocks collapsed, and everyone stepped off the war horses and roared in shock, not knowing what happened.

The place where Chen Hai and the others were standing was only a big earthquake, only equivalent to a magnitude five or six earthquake, and in the extreme north direction that Chen Hai looked at, dark clouds were rolling, and thunder and lightning arcs were like dragons and snakes swimming away.

And the source of the great tremor is transmitted from there, how much heaven and earth vitality must be attracted to cause such a big movement?

At the moment when the earth stopped trembling, countless thunder pillars weaved a huge heaven and earth thunder net, covering the earth for dozens of miles, dazzling silver-white thunder, as if countless scorching sun was rising in the extreme north, even Chen Hai and they felt dazzling.

Chen Hai and the others were three or four hundred miles away from there, but they were also terrified, they didn't expect that there was such a strong magic power in the world, which could instantly shake the thunder energy between heaven and earth, and condense a purgatory thunder net with such a wide coverage!

Even if they are the strongest in the sky, who can do this with a single move?

Wuwei Shenhou Dong Liang used his magical power to split Tiebi Mountain and open up the passage for the Wuwei army to go south out of Yulong Mountain, which was amazing enough, but there was no way to compare it with the purgatory thunder net intertwined between heaven and earth at this time.

"Tiangang Thunder Prison Array! The Red Mei Sect has already set up the Tiangang Thunder Prison Array there, waiting for Wei Yu to enter the prison!" Zhao Rong said in a low voice in shock.

They have a much deeper understanding of the Taoist Zen Monastery that was exterminated eighty years ago than Chen Hai, and it is not difficult to think of the Dao Zen Monastery that shocked the world back then.

It's just that Zhao Rong couldn't imagine that after the Red Mei Sect resurrected the Dao Zen Academy, its strength had recovered to the point where it could set up the Tiangang Thunder Prison Array, which was among the top ten peerless formations in Yanzhou.

Moreover, once the Tiangang Thunder Prison Array is deployed, it will not be launched only once and then it will be extinguished.

If the main force of the Xiyuan Army led by Wei Yuqi was within the coverage of the thunder net, the Tiangang Thunder Prison Array of this scale would only need to be launched three or five times in a row to annihilate their entire army, and even Wei Yuqi himself would be blown to ashes, and it would be impossible to escape.

Within the scope of the Tiangang Thunder Hell Array, the thunder pillar bombardment relied entirely on the induction of the qi machine.

The first time the thunder net was covered, and fifty or sixty thousand people and more mules and horses shared the thunder attack, the generals above the Xuan Realm may be able to barely save a life, but then the second and third thunder nets are covered, and there are no more low-level generals and heavy mules, horses, camels and beasts to share the thunder, and there is no way to escape from the range covered by the thunder net in an instant, basically the generals below the Spirit Clearing Realm will be blasted into charcoal.

How can the remaining ten or twenty powerhouses above the Enlightenment Realm, including Wei Yuji, bear the fourth and fifth thunder net coverage?

At this moment, Chen Hai and the others all subconsciously held their breath and stared nervously at the northern sky.

If the entire army of Wei Yu was wiped out under the cover of the Tiangang Thunder Prison Array, then they would have no second way to choose except to immediately turn around and flee south.

With this amount of strength, they still had no way to resist the offensive launched by the Dao Dan Realm powerhouse under the command of more than a thousand elite disciples of the Red Mei Sect and millions of rebels of the outcasts, and they didn't even know if the Red Mei Sect had other more terrifying killer weapons in their hands.

How is this battle going to be fought?

After four or five breaths, the expected second and third thunder overlays did not last.

"The Tiangang Thunder Prison Array deployed by the Red Mei Sect is not complete?" Tu Ziji looked at Chen Hai and Zhao Rong in surprise and suspicion, he hoped that the real situation was like this, but there was no way to confirm it.

"Think about it, why did the Red Eyebrow Sect raid Qintong Pass, did it just want to lure and annihilate fifty or sixty thousand Caochuang General Xiyuan's generals? What does this mean to the Red Eyebrow Sect?" Chen Hai asked with a frown.

"Yes, the Red Eyebrow Sect can continue to lurk in the shadows for two or three years, and after the rebel rebellion of the exiles swept through the counties, they can also officially stand up and integrate the rebels after they are more prepared, but they raided Qintong Pass and lured the main force of the Xiyuan Army to Tongbei, just to expose their true strength in advance, and it is impossible for the strong feudal clans of the counties to deliberately connive and set themselves on fire as before. Zhao Rong also said in shock.

"Heavenly Master Gong Liang's plan is the defense array of Qin Tong Pass?" Tu Ziji asked in shock.

"How many arrays are needed to set up the Tiangang Thunder Hell Array, and how many of these arrays are magic weapons above the prefecture level, how can Gong Liang and the others alone refine them in seventy or eighty years? Not to mention Gong Qing, Gong Liang, Gong Bao and other Taoist Zen Academy relics, even if they get out by faking their deaths, they have been lurking in the shadows to develop their forces for decades, where will they have how much time and how many heavenly and earthly treasures will they have to refine magic weapon arrays?"

Zhao Rong firmly believed that his inference was good, and said with blazing eyes,

"They must have removed a large number of formation weapons from the defense array of Qintong Pass, so that they can barely make up a set of Tiangang Thunder Prison Array in Tongbei, but it is far from complete!"

"If that's the case, we may not be able to fight!" Chen Hai said firmly, he was not willing to lead his troops south now.

Chen Hai immediately summoned Fan Cheng, Wu Meng, Sun Buregret, Tie Kun and others, and asked Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji to stay behind and lead the whole army on his behalf, and build a defensive line as much as possible before tomorrow afternoon......
