Sheng Feng grabbed a very strong horse and galloped out for almost a hundred miles, before he gradually got rid of the slight discomfort left by crawling out of the pile of dead people. The tranquil environment, the quiet mood, and the shadow left by the black stick in the heart of the wind are fading day by day.

He thought a lot about the strange life of the black stick, and he didn't have the courage to try again, so he could only tell himself that his strength was still shallow and not enough to control the black stick. This can be regarded as an excuse that Shengfeng has found for himself. He saw the power of the black stick, not to others, but to him, almost killing him, and at the same time, Shengfeng also confirmed the identity of the black stick artifact.

Why make excuses, it's because after suffering such a big loss, he once thought about throwing away the black stick, in Shengfeng's heart, the black stick can no longer be compared with the branch artifact, the branch artifact makes him like it more and more, and the black stick has made him have a shadow in his heart, if he can't convince himself, and find an excuse, maybe he will never dare to keep it by his side again. As a result, it seems that Shengfeng persuaded himself, and the black stick was still behind him.

After a full meal, it always brings a good mood. Half a month later, there were no more devastation caused by the war in front of him, and so many displaced people, Sheng Feng could finally confirm that he had not lost his way this time, and had entered the hinterland of the Golden Sword Alliance, and his mood returned to his former comfort and calmness day by day.

On the thousands of miles of border between the Golden Sword Alliance and the Ronglie Empire, Wangshui City is the largest city. It was because she saw Wangshui City and played in Wangshui City for half a day that her wishful wish was upgraded from a house that could shelter from the wind and rain to a city that belonged to her that was larger than Wangshui City.

In the southwest of Wangshui City, far from the bustling streets of Wangshui City, there is a garden that is absolutely the size of a city on the border, and next to the garden is a series of military camps. Yuanbao and Bimang's spiritual senses have visited this place, and their purpose is to find soldiers, not to look at the exquisite buildings in the garden. When they first looked at the ingots, there were not many soldiers in the barracks, so they should have all gone out to intercept Chen Dashuai of the Five Elements God Sect.

Yuanbao They don't know that there is another world in the garden next to the barracks, in that garden, there is a small courtyard with exquisite architecture, this is the forbidden place of Wangshui City, and the city guards of Wangshui City are not allowed to approach here without being summoned, because the current owner of this place is Gu Zheng, the former leader of the Golden Sword Alliance. Of course, now he still claims to be the leader of the alliance, but he is not recognized by the other three members of the Golden Sword Alliance.

Yuanbao They went to Wangshui City to play, and by the way, they inquired about the military situation, and Gu Zheng was in Wangshui City, but Yuanbao They didn't know Gu Zheng, and Gu Zheng was an irrelevant stranger to them. In Gu Zheng's eyes, the names of ingots and ruyi are already unforgettable to him, and they have long reached the point where they want to sleep and eat day and night.

The ambush of the 100,000-strong army of the Five Elements Divine Sect Chen Dashuai was a good move that Gu Zheng had been planning for a long time, and it was also a rare big victory for Gu Zheng against the Five Elements Divine Sect. After that battle, because the leader of the Five Elements God Sect was distracted by other things, he was very permissive about the things in the Five Elements God Sect, and it also kicked off Gu Zheng's complete solution to the Five Elements God Sect with that battle.

In order to deal with Chen Dashuai's 100,000 army, Gu Zheng dispatched 150,000 troops. Eating Chen Dashuai's 100,000 army can be described as a heavy blow to the Five Elements Divine Sect, and taking advantage of the momentum of this battle, the pacification of the Five Elements Divine Cult is just around the corner. It is said that Gu Zheng can breathe a sigh of relief if he wins this big victory. In order to regain the throne of the alliance leader, Gu Zheng has planned for more than three years, and when he saw that there was about to come to fruition, he ushered in such an exciting victory, but Gu Zheng's brows did not stretch for a day.

In Gu Zheng's plan, the Five Elements Divine Sect is about to become the sunset that is about to end, and there is a sudden strong move in the direction of Shengyuan City, and there are also different voices from Wanghaifeng in the past, but after all, they are just supporting their own troops, they have strength, but unfortunately they lack the courage to achieve great things, otherwise they would not have heard their cries in the past few years, and they could not see many substantive actions, from the beginning Gu Zheng did not take them to heart, and what really made Gu Zheng remember that it was the Holy King who was born out of thin air.

Since Gu Zheng ambushed Chen Dashuai with an absolutely superior heavy army, Gu Zheng's original step-by-step plan has changed a bit. Although Gu Zheng was victorious, his army was being eaten away by the Holy King, who was said to be only a thousand people, and in just a few months, it had begun to emerge.

Gu Zheng mobilized 150,000 troops to ambush Chen Dashuai, and was consumed by Chen Dashuai's army nearly one-third, and it was a gain or loss to fight Chen Dashuai's 100,000 soldiers and horses at a great price. This is all a situation that is allowed to exist in a normal war, and the loss of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses cannot erase Gu Zheng's victory in this battle.

What Gu Zheng couldn't accept was the variables that shouldn't appear in this battle that was in his hands, those factors that were absolutely out of his control. At first, he didn't think that he had rarely heard the movements caused by the remnants left by Chen Dashuai, and when Gu Zhengqi was victorious and could withdraw his troops, he suddenly realized that the development of the situation was much beyond his imagination and beyond his ability to bear.

Gu Zheng knew that this great victory would have to pay a lot of price, but according to his estimates, there would always be almost 100,000 troops returning triumphantly, but how many of Gu Zheng's 150,000 troops are there today? The battle report sent a month ago showed that there were less than 50,000 people. That is to say, this Saint King who was born out of nowhere, with his thousand people, after Chen Dashuai, exhausted all the results that Gu Zheng obtained against Chen Dashuai. The Five Elements Divine Sect has paid a lot of troops in this battle, and Gu Zheng has also lost a lot of troops, it seems that Gu Zheng's losses are even more, and Gu Zheng can hardly treat this battle as a victory anymore.

In a small wooden two-story building, Gu Zheng sat behind the bookcase in the study, which was quite similar to that in the Golden Knife Villa. The wide chair that Gu Zheng was sitting on could be seen to be in the style of the throne of the leader of the Golden Sword Alliance.

On the bookcase, there are three densely packed battle reports written side by side. Gu Zheng had not yet mastered all of the Golden Sword Alliance, and there was only one commander in charge of all the armies in other forces, but Gu Zheng set a precedent by appointing four commanders. These three war reports were submitted by three of the commanders.

Two of them made Gu Zheng feel a little relieved. On the side of Shengyuan City and Wanghaifeng, although there are many small actions that are much more frequent than in the past, under the suppression of Gu Zheng's two commanders of the 500,000 army, they originally lacked the courage to achieve great things, and they thought that they were the orthodox of the Golden Sword Alliance, and they were unwilling to cooperate with each other, so it was impossible to set off too much storm in front of Gu Zheng.

The last battle report was presented to the one who was fighting against the Cult of the Five Elements. This leader was considered by Gu Zheng to be the key to determining whether he could recover the Golden Sword Alliance. In the past few years, only the Five Elements Divine Sect can confront Gu Zheng head-on, although Gu Zheng has a heavy army, he has not been able to effectively suppress the Five Elements Divine Cult in a few years, and has to use heavy profits as bait to disintegrate the Five Elements Divine Cult from within.

After receiving information, the leader of the Five Elements God Sect had left the Five Elements God Sect, and Gu Zheng thought that his opportunity had also come. Unlike the other two commanders, because Gu Zheng had successfully rebelled against several heavyweights in the Five Elements Divine Sect, it was an excellent example for the inside and outside to deal with Chen Dashuai, and then it would be unstoppable to deal with the Five Elements Divine Sect, but the battle report that Gu Zheng received was mixed.

The war situation against the Five Elements Divine Sect was very good, and Gu Zheng's army was like a broken bamboo, and the Five Elements Divine Cult was defeated and retreated, and seeing that the Five Elements Divine Cult was about to be subdued, it was difficult to become a major problem for Gu Zheng.

It was because of that Saint King that Gu Zheng's brows tightened. Gu Zheng had already issued an order a month ago, asking the leader of the Five Elements Divine Sect to temporarily transfer his energy from the Five Elements Divine Sect to this newly emerged Saint King, mobilize 100,000 troops and horses with a large army all the way, and arrange three lines of defense comparable to an iron wall against this Saint King, vowing to strangle this Saint King who has not yet become a great climate.

A month has passed, and the 100,000 horses and horses that dealt with Chen Dashuai have not made Gu Zheng so worried today, and it is said that there are not many soldiers and horses led by that holy king. The battle against the Holy King had already begun, but no good news came back, and it was all a call for help. The three impregnable lines of defense could not stop a Saint King who had only been famous for a few months, not only could not fulfill Gu Zheng's wish to kill him, but also trapped an army of 100,000 in it.

There were four other people in Gu Zheng's study. Two of them were the only two stewards of the Golden Sword Villa who were willing to leave with him when Gu Zheng was forced to withdraw from the alliance leader's throne, and they had been by Gu Zheng's side for the past few years to give Gu Zheng advice. One is Gu Zheng's current chief manager, this chief manager's background is not small, he is from the ancestral land of the Golden Sword League, and he is the most powerful subordinate by Gu Zheng's father's side. Compared with Gu Zheng's past two Grand Governors, whether it was Yue Feng, who had already betrayed the Golden Sword Alliance and established the Five Elements Divine Sect, or Long Grand Administrator, who had committed suicide and apologized, they were definitely not under them.

The last one didn't even mix with the seat here, and stood beside him with his head down. He was broken through the three steel-like defense lines arranged by Yuan Bao and Ruyi one after another, but he couldn't even see the shadow of Ruyi, and the army commander of this operation was Gao Cheng. The third battle report that made Gu Zheng frown was sent by this Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng came back to move troops for help.
