Chapter 797: A Nail That Can't Be Pulled

As soon as Dai Laozu took people away, Song Zuyi immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare for battle, Lingjing Sect was originally a reformed fortress, but it fell quickly because there were too few defenders, and now the Nanzhou monks can reuse these things.

However, Song Zuyi was not passive defense on the mountain, there were more than 20,000 people and horses on the mountain, and he selected 5,000 elites to take a flying boat and hid in the clouds.

Song Zuyi understands very well what the power in his hands is, don't look at the more than 20,000 people here, but these people have not been trained in battle formations, so they can't have a battle formation duel at all, they can only fight in a melee and fight badly, and what they want is to break the situation.

Not long after, the outpost of the Yunxiao Sect's army arrived, the sentinels on both sides kept fighting, and there were monks fighting everywhere, but the armies on both sides were unmoved, and the Yunxiao Sect's army still stepped forward steadily.

The leader of the Yunxiao Sect has a cautious personality, and the army moves very slowly, and it takes more than half a day to complete the journey of three hundred miles, and constantly sends outposts to probe to see if there are traps.

Encountering such a cautious opponent, Song Zuyi had no better way, he could only shake it hard, Song Zuyi sent dozens of people to bypass the Yunxiao Sect's army to gather more people, and the teams of Nanzhou Operation were still gathering, and in just half a day, more than 2,000 people arrived on the periphery.

The Nanzhou monks on Lingjing Mountain refused to give up their peripheral positions, and sent tens of thousands of people to the front mountain to garrison, and soon fought with the monks of Yunxiao Sect, and when the war was in full swing, Song Zuyi led the flying boat to descend from the sky, attacked from the side, and defeated the army of Yunxiao Sect in one fell swoop.

The army of Yunxiao Sect continued to retreat, and it took more than 50 miles to stabilize, Song Zuyi knew that the men and horses in his hands were all rabble, and he did not dare to chase too far, so he immediately led his troops to retreat, and found a mountain in Lingjing Mountain to station, echoing the monks of Lingjing Mountain, and they were horns for each other, and those gathered people and horses also continued to converge.

The monks of the Yunxiao Sect were not willing to be defeated, and after a little adjustment, they quickly pressed up, this time they did not attack rashly, but chose to contain the other party, and summoned men and horses to help in the battle.

Now the two sides are fighting for the rescue force, but in the hinterland of the Xianmeng, how can the Nanzhou monks compare to the Yunxiao Sect, the reinforcements of the Nanzhou monks are more than each action, as few as dozens of people, and as many as a thousand people, and the reinforcements of the Yunxiao Sect are reinforcements as soon as they come, and after another dawn, the army of the Yunxiao Sect is more than 70,000 people, and the Nanzhou side is less than 40,000, and the disparity between the strength of the two sides is almost doubled.

With sufficient men and horses, the Yunxiao Sect soldiers were divided into two routes, all the way to attack Lingjing Mountain, all the way to attack the mountain where Song Zuyi was stationed, and now there are more rabbles on both sides, all of which are melee battles.

More than 100,000 horses fought on a battle line that was seven or eight miles long, killing rivers of blood, day and night, and a large number of monks fell in pools of blood, but the follow-up monks were still one after the other.

"Bring the battleship and the Xuanjing cannon up and kill them"

Seeing that the men and horses under his command continued to die, the high-ranking monks of the Yunxiao Sect were dripping blood in their hearts, and they were furious in their hearts, and they kept issuing orders to completely eradicate these horses.

The Xuanjing cannon and the battleship are considered heavy weapons in the immortal cultivation world, before they were not prepared in order to quickly chase the enemy, so now they are specially mobilized from the rear, once the Xuanjing cannon and the battleship are in place, one of these people and horses will be counted as one, and they will all be killed.

"My lord, the battleship of Yunxiao Sect has arrived, what should I do?"

An hour later, the Nanzhou monks guarding the periphery discovered the battleship of the Yunxiao Sect and quickly told Song Zuyi, which made Song Zuyi's face change suddenly.

Nanzhou monks dispatched 170,000 people, in addition to the 50,000 bandits who were abandoned under Xuanyang City, there should be 120,000 horses, and now Song Zuyi counted less than 60,000 people, that is, half of them are still outside, and now the heads of each team have lost contact, and he doesn't know how many of these 60,000 people are left.

But he knew that once they withdrew here, these 60,000 people would have no way to survive at all, and they would only be hunted down and killed by the Immortal Alliance monks one by one.

"Rush over and go to Lingjing Mountain"

Song Zuyi only hesitated for a moment, and immediately led the team to rush forward, gave up this peripheral position, and had a round with the monks of Lingjing Mountain, and then returned to the mountain gate of Lingjing Mountain, and held up a large array, protected by a formation protective shield, and the Xuanjing cannon on the battleship could not hit the monks.

The outer position was occupied by the Yunxiao Sect monks, and they set up dozens of Xuanjing cannons, plus that battleship, and at the same time, more than eighty Xuanjing cannons attacked fiercely, and the fifth-order protective array brought by them suddenly crumbled.

"Lord Song, we know too little about the Lingjing Sect, we haven't even figured out the size, and the protective formation can't exert its strength, and it won't be able to hold it for an hour at most. ”

"I know, let the disciples retreat into the peaks in the mountain gate and hide, I will lead the main force to fight and retreat, and when they come in, the left and right peaks will rush down and defeat them.

I have ordered the monks outside to find a place to gather men and horses, as long as the outside holds out for one day, we can evacuate after one day, and there will be reinforcements from the Nanzhou army to meet us."

Song Zuyi replied that Lingjing Mountain was blocked, and the monks outside could not enter, so they could only find their own way, find a place to assemble again, and then withdraw, and the same was true for them.

Hold on for one more day, it will be the third day of the operation, and there will be no evacuation in three days, and there is no hope of evacuation, so it can't be controlled so much, and the Nanzhou army must also have a response, Song Zuyi asked Dai Laozu to escort away Among the people who have his henchmen, he will tell Lin Xiao what happened here.

In less than an hour, the protective formation hastily set up on Lingjing Mountain was broken, and countless Yunxiao Sect monks rushed in, and Song Zuyi led the team to block it, and fought and retreated.

The people who rushed in were all the forwards of the Yunxiao Sect, separated from the command of the rear, and the battlefield was too chaotic to command, and the people in the vanguard wanted to pester Song Zuyi's men and horses to prevent them from escaping, but they didn't expect this to be a trap at all.

When they chased out more than ten miles, a cannon sounded, and more than 3,000 people committed suicide on the left and right peaks, cutting off the army of Yunxiao Sect, and the command of Yunxiao Sect was greatly frightened, and desperately charged to the rescue.

Song Zuyi reflexively killed back, flanking back and forth, the Yunxiao Sect's vanguard was defeated, if it weren't for the Yunxiao Sect's main force coming quickly, the thousands of people and horses in the vanguard might have been annihilated, but less than half of them fled back.

The leader of the Yunxiao Sect knew that this group of people was not easy to mess with, so he did not dare to attack again, so he retreated a few miles and surrounded the mountain gate, preparing to send more reinforcements to arrive, and it was already dark at this time.

"Lord Song, we still have more than 30,000 people, more than 1,000 seriously injured, and the flying boat is not enough."

"The seriously wounded get on the flying boat, and the rest of the men and horses break through with me, starting in the second half of the night, now let the disciples have a full meal and recover their Xuan Qi"

"Yes"

Everyone distributed the loot they had captured, strengthened their arms, and all the monks sat on the ground, holding the Xuanjing in their hands and swallowing the pill in their mouths, recovering their Xuanqi as much as possible and preparing to break through.

And three hundred miles outside Lingjing Mountain, the monks who came from all over the country were also fighting fiercely, and their men and horses were discovered by the reinforcements of Yunxiao Sect, and they refused to let them go, and they were encircling and suppressing, and they were also fighting and retreating, retreating in the direction of the Nanzhou army.

At this time, in the front line, Bai Zichen led 50,000 cavalry to break through the opponent's front line and attack the hinterland of the Xianmeng, Lin Xiao was furious after learning the news of Aqing's death, and the army that was originally just a feint immediately turned into a desperate fight, and Bai Zichen led 50,000 horses into the hinterland to meet the rest of the men and horses.

The movement of the 50,000 cavalry was very large, and it was impossible to hide the people of the Immortal League, but the army of the Immortal League could not stop them at all, and Bai Zichen did not attack the city.

There were many enemies chasing before and after the 50,000 army, and Bai Zichen didn't care about it, he had only one purpose, that is, to receive the evacuation of his own people.

Ryoma can travel thousands of miles in a day, and the speed is even faster under the charge, a day and night have passed, Bai Zichen has broken into the vicinity of Lingjing Mountain, and the monks besieged by Yunxiao Sect saw the appearance of the Nanzhou army, and immediately dispersed, and Bai Zichen received the first batch of his own people.

"Where is Song Zuyi?"

"It's still in Lingjing Mountain, and I didn't rush out"

"Leave 10,000 people, line up here, and tell the monks who have not yet arrived, we will wait here for half a day, and leave after half a day, and the rest will rush with me."

Bai Zichen didn't say a word, leaving 10,000 people, and the rest of the people immediately rushed to Lingjing Mountain, Yunxiao Sect's army was also shocked when they learned that Bai Zichen was coming, and hurriedly lined up to block the attack, Bai Zichen didn't even organize a battle formation to meet the enemy, but risked huge dangers and casualties, and directly attacked the opponent's battle formation.

The high-level monks led by Bai Zichen charged, the speed was faster than that of Ryoma, and the battle formation only made three attacks before they were penetrated by Bai Zichen, and the two sides fought again.

The monks of Yunxiao Sect have been fighting hard for three days since they were intercepted by Ah Qing, and everyone was exhausted, and they were not the opponents of Bai Zichen and others at all, and they were directly defeated by the battle formation and rushed into Lingjing Mountain.

At this time, Lingjing Mountain was still fighting fiercely, and Song Zuyi was going to break through in the middle of the night, but the people of Yunxiao Sect had already expected their actions, and sent people who practiced eye skills to secretly monitor, as soon as Song Zuyi moved, the army of Yunxiao Sect pressed up, and they could only continue to fight hard if they were not given a chance to break through.

There are many people in Yunxiao Sect, Song Zuyi and these people were forced into the core area of Lingjing Mountain, cut into several pieces, and hid on various peaks to resist to the end, originally these people had no way to live, but Bai Zichen directly killed the rear of Yunxiao Sect, giving them hope.

They killed them from the mountain, and suddenly formed a situation of flanking back and forth, and the Yunxiao Sect army collapsed first, but Bai Zichen didn't have the heart to chase and kill them, so he answered the men and horses, immediately retreated, and after joining the 10,000 horses left, he turned around and rushed in the direction of the Nanzhou army.
