Ethereal saw that Han Ningzi's first sentence was not blame but concern, which shows that the bigwigs of Qi Baishan have their own unique side of education.

"Han Ningzi, are you injured, how is your body, you are fighting so hard here, but it really hurts you, and I am late, I should say I'm sorry. Ethereal said.

As soon as Han Ningzi heard these words, his whole heart instantly seemed to have something to rely on, "Ethereal Immortal Venerable, please don't say that, you really torture me, I should do this, even if I die here today, I have no regrets, I was wrong, I shouldn't have rushed into here, this is the full set that An Yatu arranged for me, in fact, we shouldn't have such a serious loss." ”

"Let's not talk about this for now, or mainly to treat those disciples who are still alive, this matter, I believe that everything is just, I will not allow anyone to wronged our disciples of Qi Baishan, if it is really you who did something wrong, it is the price you paid for your arrogance, I also hope that you can bear it bravely, you know?" said Ethereal Spirit.

"Yes, Ethereal Immortal Venerable, the disciple is careful to follow the teachings, but I don't know, where is my master and his old man now, why hasn't he appeared yet?" Han Ningzi asked.

"I thought that your master was now in need of important things by him, but it is not ruled out that this is also an Anyatu conspiracy, I have sent someone to find it, you don't have to worry, come, I will see how your injuries are. Ethereal personally examined Han Ningzi and found that the injuries on Han Ningzi's body were all flesh wounds, and there was no fatal danger, but judging from the wounds, Han Ningzi really fought bloodily, and there were almost more than 20 wounds on his body.

"Okay, it's not a big problem, as long as you cultivate and get better. Ethereal said.

Since the withdrawal of the army of the Black Tower tribe, the alliance army of the Great Xia Empire and the Nine Great Sects has also withdrawn from the underground hanging river, although this place is relatively hidden, but it is not important, there is no one and the possibility of sending troops to garrison, plus the Great Xia Empire has the intention to shrink its forces, so it has vacated the underground hanging river.

After the war, the statistics were in the synchronous calculation, after a preliminary investigation, in this battle, the Great Xia Empire lost almost fifty or sixty thousand people, and the Nine Great Sects alone caused the loss of more than 13,000 people, here we are talking about the dead, not the injured, but very few injured, An Yatu issued an order to kill, as long as it is a disciple of the Nine Great Sects, he does not want to see any of them alive, so when the injured disciples of the Nine Great Sects are attacked, the protection and safety that other people can provide to these wounded is very small, which causes the disciples of the Nine Great Sects to have an extremely high mortality rate。

In terms of the Heita tribe, almost a scale of legions has been wiped out, each legion is almost 100,000 people, in general, the casualties of the Heita tribe army are relatively high, strategically, it is also the Great Xia Empire that has achieved tactical intentions, occupying the Taiping village and town area, and through this battle, directly take down this piece of the battlefield, this is naturally nothing to say, the army of the Black Tower tribe retreated on all fronts, and the cities that were originally defended were also abandoned, in many places, the Great Xia Empire did not spend any soldiers to take it down, which is also a gratifying thing, but the Great Xia Empire did not feel that it had succeeded, The nine major sects suffered heavy losses, and the threat on the battlefield was directly weakened, which is equivalent to the existence of the same, even if it wins this one, what does it matter, Anyatu also got the intention of his own tactics, which provided great help for the peaceful mobilization of the army in the following months, Anyatu is not to drive out the Great Xia Empire in a short time, and the Great Xia Empire will not take the Black Tower tribe in a short time, the study is a war of attrition, and in the end, who can't bear it, then the other side is to win.

Han Ningzi had to rest for a few days after returning from the battlefield, and by the way, he would also reflect on it.

Shang Gong was anxious to report the results of the battle to the above, and continued to ask the Great Xia Empire to come to reinforcements, and also followed the ethereal spirit to discuss how to fight below, the meaning of the ethereal spirit is very clear, that is, not to fight, can not wait for Yuan Songzhu's order, he temporarily let the Nine Great Sects cultivate here, and then how many people from the Nine Great Sects can be used on the battlefield, without the support of the Nine Great Sects, then Shang Gong does not dare to act rashly, Shang Gong asked the Nine Great Sects to continue to reinforce the battle, and this still needs the people of the Nine Great Sects to sit down and discuss well, they have already sent troops according to the requirements of the Royal Family of the Great Xia Empire, Not only did they not achieve any decent results, but their own people suffered heavy losses, and now they have to consider the issue of sending troops for their own sect, if there is no benefit, then this battle is in vain, if it is profitable, maybe they will continue to send troops, the Nine Great Sects are not wholeheartedly dedicated to the Great Xia Empire, after all, this loss is too great, and some of the Nine Great Sects can't parry, so it seems that as Anya Tu expected, the disciples of the Nine Great Sects will reconsider the issue of reinforcements because of this loss, and he naturally likes that the Nine Great Sects will not send troops, but even if they send troops, it doesn't matter, An Yatu also hopes to have a war of annihilation of the Nine Great Sects, and he finds that it is more difficult to deal with the Nine Great Sects than the army of the Great Xia Empire, and the disciples of the Nine Great Sects are more precious, so if they fight again, they will not have too much strength.

The army that had been brought down had advanced to a place fifty miles away from the new defense line of the Black Tower tribe and lay down, and placed a part of Qi Desheng's army, almost 300,000 men, and the rest remained in Changhe City these days.

The royal family of the Great Xia Empire soon came with the news, the emperor supported the Shang Palace to continue the attack, and took down the Black Tower tribe at all costs, and soon an army would be sent, along with the army of the Imperial Goddess, and the empire also knew about the heavy losses of the Nine Great Sects, but this is how the emperor persuaded the Nine Great Sects to continue the attack, but it has little to do with Shang Gong, and there is not much that Shang Gong can do now, he has already mourned for the dead disciples of the Nine Great Sects, and what should be given has been given, what else can he do, and the bodies of the disciples of the Nine Great Sects have been cremated on the spot, and the ashes have been sent back to their respective mountains。

The big backer of the Nine Great Sects has fallen, isn't there still an imperial goddess, Hua Nong's name, Shang Gong is not unclear, if Hua Nong can come in person, then there is still a reason for the battle to continue.

Shang Gong talked to the ethereal spirit in the room on this day, the question is the news about whether the Nine Great Sects will all retreat because of this loss, the warriors of the Northern Liang Bureau led by Hu Jun have withdrawn from the battle, and now they are on the way back, although the alliance strategy of the Nine Great Sects is stipulated, but Hu Jun does not intend to give them this face, that is, it is to retreat, it is useless for anyone to say it, so there is no way for the Ethereal to retreat, so the Hu Army can only retreat, and in the Beiliang Bureau, it seems that the dominant type of Hu Jun's speech is not low, he said to retreat, the head of the Northern Liang Bureau did not say anything, and let them withdraw under great pressure, Now Hu Jun is already on the way back, Hu Jun's departure is just a wake-up call to Shanggong, this thing The people of the Nine Great Sects have retreated like the Beiliang Bureau, leaving him alone in this place, so what can I do, he alone has no confidence in dealing with the army of the Heta tribe, especially in the case that the imperial goddess has not yet led reinforcements to arrive, in case the Heita tribe is ready to move and kill from the fortress, then wouldn't he become a victim of the empire, even if he is not killed by the Heita tribe in the war, then after going back, he will be convicted by the Great Xia Empire, not a head, it is also an official position。

After the army of the Heita tribe withdrew into the mountains from the battlefield in the Taiping village and town area, the place of six hundred miles was handed over to the army of the Great Xia Empire, and some places were occupied by the army of Shanggong without even defending, this is not that Anyatu does not resist, but that he can't resist at all, after the battle of the underground hanging river, Anyatu has the intention of giving up the battlefield of the Changhe Plain, fighting with the army of the Great Xia Empire on the plain, the terrain is undoubtedly a decisive advantage for the Great Xia Empire, and the Heita tribe is not enough to fight against the Great Xia Empire in addition to rich property resources, So throwing the plains to the Great Xia Empire is a correct choice, even if the Great Xia Empire later occupied these places, and carried out a tragic sweep of these places, what was lost was just some wealth and food, the strategic resources of the Black Tower tribe were all behind, and there was a big mountain in the middle, distributed near the location of the Black Tower City, and the plains were lost, and they could be recaptured again, isn't it, now is not the time to fight for a moment, at least Anyatu is not confused at this juncture, and all strategic and thoughtful leaders will not start a war with the superior enemy on the plain。

The army of the Heta tribe withdrew to the fortress in the mountain, there is a big mountain here, a big mountain is a fortress, the mountain has been hollowed out, a large number of fixed ballistas and catapults are arranged, the degree of defense is more difficult to deal with than Changhe City, but it is not without shortcomings, that is, the place is too big, if the investment of troops is not very much, there will be a lot of defensive vacuum, this mountain is built as a weapon of this kind of war, that is, the patriarchs in front of the Heta tribe in order to prevent the attack of the Great Xia Empire and started construction, this fortress, so far it has a history of thousands of years, and the end of the fortress is equal to a cliff, There are only three or four passages into the mountain, and the road is built long and narrow, and a large number of sentry posts and secret passages are set up on the road, which are used to attack or retreat, it is very difficult to capture such a place, and there is a lack of the strength of the nine major sects, which is the root of Shang Gong's stop, when Shang Gong first heard the return of the scout, he was shocked on the spot, who would have thought that the Black Tower tribe was so expected, the predecessors of a thousand years ago had already thought of what would happen after a thousand years, and arranged such a tight defense in this place.

This fortress is called the Cangshan Fortress, and the whole mountain is also called Cangshan, there are many strange stones in the mountain, one side of the woods is luxuriant, one side of the woods is scarce, only the light mountain remains, the entire fortress is all over the Cangshan, at this moment, the Heta tribe has mobilized the main pathology of the six legions here, plus the army torn off the battlefield of Changhe City, the number is almost one million people, for the defense of the entire Cangshan, at least it can be said that there is no loophole at all, but it cannot be said that it is completely sufficient, because Cangshan is almost directly blocking the waist and dividing the Heita tribe into two, becoming a natural barrier for the Heita tribe to block the enemy, The Great Xia Empire now occupies half of the territory of the Heita tribe, but this area is equal to about one-twentieth of the entire Heita tribe, and the Heita tribe is not a small tribe, and the area is also very huge.

Shang Gong found the ethereal spirit today, set up a banquet, in addition to the ethereal, only the maids and servants remained, Shang Gong did not have a single general around, he wanted to chat with the ethereal spirit about some confidant words, so as not to be disturbed, and these words are not good to wear out.

Ethereal still doesn't know what Shang Gong means, then he has been an immortal on Qi Bai Mountain for so many years, so Ethereal went to the meeting, and when he came, he sat down quietly, listening to Kong Ling's hypocritical rhetoric.

"Ethereal Immortal Venerable, it's really thanks to you for so many days, if it weren't for you in charge, then the Nine Great Sects would be really messed up, I heard that the head of Yuan Songzhu hasn't been found yet, and I have also sent someone to find it, and I will tell Qi Baishan as soon as there is news, but I don't have a clue for the time being, can I say?" Shang Gong poured wine for the ethereal spirit and asked.

"Impossible, I know the strength of the head of Yuan Songzhu, there will definitely be no thought, and the army of the Black Tower tribe in front has not come out since it withdrew into the mountains, and there is no news that there is a head of Yuan Songzhu, it seems that the head must be going to do his own thing, and General Shang Gong does not have to worry about this matter, and now the battlefield environment is the most worthy of General Shang Gong's concern." Ethereal smiled and said, I don't know the whereabouts of Yuan Songzhu ethereal, but I have already guessed a rough idea, this is put aside for the time being, let's talk about things on the battlefield, Yuan Songzhu is not there, then the main leader of Qi Baishan is ethereal, after the ethereal is Yifeng, but unfortunately Yifeng is not on the battlefield, the nine major sects have shot out a lot of strong people this time, but it seems that Changmen is at a level, that is, Qi Baishan, Feng Gongjin of Wuyi Mountain has long ignored the things on Wuyi Mountain, and it is Feng Gongyun who has taken over the major events on Wuyi Mountain, but Feng Gongyunyi has not officially become the head of Wuyi Mountain, So the discourse status on the battlefield is still not too high, the ethereal is different, the original alliance army of the nine major sects obeyed the orders of Yuan Songzhu, needless to say, now in addition to Yuan Songzhu, who else is stronger than the ethereal ability, obviously no, so although there are some cracks in the alliance army of the nine major sects now, but still have to obey the ethereal order, except for the Hu army, the other sects have no plans to retreat, they can't just swallow the bitter fruit of the fiasco in vain, they all want to retaliate, but revenge requires troops, continue to mobilize disciples from their own mountains, helpless mountains and rivers are far away, this is a bit troublesome, but they can't help but move,The fastest mobilization is Ximen.,An elder of Ximen died in the underground hanging river.,The body was sent back to Ximen overnight to be buried.,And Ximen re-formed a team of 1,000 people has left Ximen.,On the way to the battlefield of the Demon Domain.,This time there are more three elders of Ximen.,Dead an elder.,Three elders came.,There are only ten elders in Ximen.,It can be seen that this time Ximen is also fighting.,The death of an elder is a great shame for them.,And the empire has recently given Ximen a lot of benefits.,If Ximen doesn't come,Then Ximen will not only be unable to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future.,There will be no good fruit to eat in the Great Xia Empire. 。

As for Qi Baishan, this time the loss is relatively large, but it is acceptable, the gate sect is like this, there are many disciples in the sect, some casualties are nothing, the ethereal look at the influence, if Qi Baishan goes back like this, what should the army of the Great Xia Empire do, this has been planning for such a long time The war in the Demon Domain will end in the defeat of the Great Xia Empire, if it goes back like this time, then fight back and hit the hinterland of the Demon Domain, I don't know what year, month, and day it will be, so Qi Baishi should not retreat, once he finds Yuan Songzhu, he will immediately mobilize more disciples to come, and most of the other sects of the Nine Great Sects are also like thisIf you retreat, wouldn't you be a joke of the Great Xia Empire, saying that you are a group of cowards and have lost 15,000 people, this number is still acceptable, and these more than 15,000 people are distributed among the heads of the nine sects, in fact, the casualties of each sect are not very many, besides, the warriors of the Beiliang Bureau contributed more than 1,500 people, and the Hu army brought a lot of people this time, almost more than 2,000 people, but after a battle, the Hu army only went back with more than 100 people, and there were hundreds of people who were missing in the battle, they were not captured, but sacrificed, I don't know where I died, or my body was directly shattered by magic, and I couldn't find it, all of them were counted as missing people, and what the Nine Great Sects couldn't accept was just that they lost so much in a battle.

Shang Gong responded with a smile: " That's right, I should be more concerned about the problems on the battlefield now, our forward army has caught up with Anyatu's army, this old fox didn't fight with us all the way, and went directly into the mountain, our army didn't catch up with right, it turned out that the mountain was their new front, we were blocked behind Cangshan, I let the troops withdraw to a place fifty miles away from the mountain and stationed, last night by Anyatu's surprise attack, lost thousands of people, ethereal immortal Venerable, do you know that place, do you think we want to take this Cangshan, how much army does it take, and how much is the loss"Ethereal shallow said deeply, the purpose is to let Ethereal say what she wants to say, this heart eye Kong Ling felt naïve when she saw it, Kong Ling had already come with determination, this time it was to appease Shang Gong's unstable heart.

"General Shanggong, what do you want to say, just say it directly, you didn't entertain anyone else today, I already know your purpose, even if you don't come to me, I will look for you. Ethereal said.

"Okay, it is worthy of being the Immortal Venerable on Qi Bai Mountain, then I won't talk nonsense, but it seems that I am pretentious, I want to know the meaning of the Nine Great Sects, whether they will continue to stay in the Demon Domain to assist the army of the Great Xia Empire in attacking. Ethereal said, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was also afraid of offending the Nine Great Sects, although he was a great general, but he was also aggrieved enough, not to mention the orders of the Empire, but also to look at the faces of the Nine Great Sects, he was so aggrieved, not to mention these generals under Shang Palace, now these generals have seen Shang Gong one by one, they can't even speak, they don't know what to say, every day is training the army, sorting out logistics, I have to say that the logistics support system of the Great Xia Empire is really good enough, after such a long time of a big war, the Nine Great Sects have lost all the bans, but the empire's logistics support system is still intact, one million support troops and civilians have not lost at all, and the warehouse has not lost a few, otherwise, once the logistics support has suffered huge losses by Anyatu's sneak attack, then the Shang Palace is powerless to return to the sky, and the so-called Qiao woman is difficult to cook without rice.

Now Shang Gong can put a table of good wine and food here, all thanks to the logistics support army, he should give this general who is otherwise logistics a little reward.

"I can tell you, you don't have to worry, the Nine Great Sects will not collapse because of the current losses, in fact, these losses are nothing compared to the previous losses, in any previous war in which the Nine Great Sects participated, there will always be sacrifices of many disciples, it is they who sacrificed in exchange for victory, this was the case before, and it is the same now, we have adjusted it, but there is one thing I want to explain, if the Nine Great Sects remobilize their disciples from various sects, it may take a long time, at this point in time, everything will depend on the support of the army of the Great Xia Empire little by little, We will use the current alliance army to assist the Great Xia Empire's operations, in my opinion, the current army of the Great Xia Empire still has more than 1.5 million regular troops with combat effectiveness, plus our strength, General Shang Gong does not have to worry about us losing the land of the Black Tower tribe that we have occupied, An Yatu is not confused, he is a shrinking turtle in the Cangshan Fortress, indicating that there is also a little problem with his troop mobilization, and for the time being, he does not have the ability to say that we can eat it in one bite, as long as the army on General Shanggong's side is deployed quickly, and the reinforcements of the empire arrive quickly, then we still have the ability to take the entire battlefield, and when our reinforcements arrive, Then we can still gain the initiative on the entire battlefield, everything will develop in our favor, the two worlds of immortals and demons have been at war for thousands of years, we rarely set foot on the land of the Demon Domain to fight against the Demon Domain, and this time we took the initiative to attack, and actually occupied one-tenth of the land of the Black Tower Tribe, I believe that from this tenth, the Great Xia Empire has reached the node of the counteroffensive, and through such a long period of development, the Great Xia Empire has the ability to take the initiative, and there is no good life in the future is the Demon Domain。 Ethereal's words were a reassurance to Ethereal, so as not to worry him. By doing so, he was also tantamount to making a promise to the other armies of the Great Xia Empire that the Nine Great Sects would not retreat and would continue to stay and fight.

"Hahahaha, great, it's really good, the Ethereal Immortal Venerable really knows what I'm thinking in my heart, since you say so, I'm relieved, I'm relieved, come and drink with us." Ethereal smirk.

"I don't think it's necessary to drink, and at this time, everyone is silent in a sad atmosphere, and I have to go back to appease Qi Baishan's disciples and send someone to bring their ashes back. Ethereal stood up and said.

"Ethereal Immortal Venerable, I am very sorry for the loss of the Nine Great Sects, but I can swear to the sky, I have absolutely not slackened off to reinforce the Nine Great Sects, but the Alliance Army of the Nine Great Sects rushed too far, resulting in a gap between us, the army of the Black Tower Clan divided us, we have been reinforcing after the Nine Great Sects were besieged, and even in the First World War, we have all 30,000 people, I really tried my best, you also saw the gap between the army of the Great Xia Empire and the army of the Black Tower Clan, if there is no support from the Nine Great Sects on the battlefieldI'm afraid that our army will not be able to deal with the strong army of the Black Tower tribe, and even if I win, it will be a miserable victory. Ethereal was telling the truth, and Ethereal would not suspect him.

"I naturally know this, the Black Tower tribe selects troops in the war all the year round, and the way their army is trained is different from that of the Great Xia Empire, and the people of the Demon Domain have a special physique, and they are born with strength, such an army has extremely strong combat effectiveness, and the Black Tower tribe is not weak in fighting in the entire Demon Domain, and now what I am most worried about is not the Black Tower Clan, but the Tianpo Cave Tribe on both sides of us and the Shuiyuntian Clan. Ethereal said.

"I just don't know, Ethereal Immortal Venerable, what are you worried about them?" Shang Gong asked.

"These two tribes are on the left and right of the Heta tribe, and the Heta tribe has repeatedly retreated, which is gradually bringing us into the Heta tribe, as we go deeper, then our army will inevitably enter the Heta tribe, so we will form the danger of being surrounded in the middle, if these two tribes suddenly attack me, then we will be attacked on three sides, and when the time comes, if we want to escape, I am afraid that the back road will also be blocked, and we will inevitably suffer greater losses at that time." Ethereal said.

"Oh, it turns out that the Ethereal Immortal Venerable is worried about this problem, I have also been worried about this, I also went to investigate, I found that the relationship between Shui Yuntian and the Black Tower tribe has been stiff, recently the Black Tower tribe has almost been in war because of the fight for the border with the Demon Cave, the Shui Yuntian tribe and the Demon Cave tribe will not come to reinforce the Black Tower Clan, you can rest assured, as for the Tianpo Cave Clan, the total strength is less than half of the Black Tower, even if they attack me, we can deal with it, I have already contacted the Imperial side and asked for reinforcements of a million troops, The emperor actually requisitioned two million troops from all over the country to enter the Demon Domain battlefield in three batches, the first batch has already set off, along with the army of the Imperial Goddess, this time the Imperial Goddess is in charge, plus the army of the Nine Great Sects, we can be said to have formed the most powerful army of the Great Xia Empire, in the Demon Domain, each tribe has fallen apart, they can't fight against so many of our troops, this time it is to take down the entire Demon Domain"
