Chapter 158: Xiaoxiang City
"That Li Minghan's plan is not small, among his people, there are demon beasts that can transform into human shapes", Leng Yaoqing said meaningfully.
"You, you mean, there is a powerful demon beast around him?" Xiao Chuan was shocked again.
"Certainly. We've found some clues, but we haven't finally dug up that thing......" Leng Yaoqing frowned slightly, as if it was a more complicated matter.
It seems that Li Minghan has been planning for this coup for a long time, and he was able to unite so many forces and strong people, Sister Qianmo's road to a rich country is really extremely difficult!
"There are many rivers and lakes in Lingxi Road, among which Xiaoxiang City, which borders Longyou Road, stands on the broad river surface of the lower reaches of the Heicang River, although there is no dangerous mountain, but it is still easy to defend and difficult to attack, I don't know if you have any plans?"
Leng Yaoqing didn't pay attention to Xiao Chuan's question about Li Minghan, but raised the problems that should be solved at the moment. In his opinion, although the future of Li Minghan's side must be a thorny problem, it is the most important thing for them to attack the cities one by one at the moment.
"Well, I have made up my mind about this matter, keep it secret!" Xiao Chuan smiled mysteriously when he heard this, and sped away on the black horse that Li Qianmo had given him.
The blue chain in Leng Yaoqing's hand trembled slightly, and the horse chased after him.
"Good fellows, are these people going to fight hard?" Xiao Chuan marched rapidly, and after only three days, he had reached the west bank across the river from Xiaoxiang City.
The west bank of the lower reaches of the Heicang River is the cliff of Baiyan Mountain, and the east bank is the fertile plain of Yima Pingchuan. The city of Xiaoxiang, located at the beginning of this plain, was built facing the river, and if you want to attack the city, you must first cross the river.
Although the lower reaches of the Heicang River are not as turbulent and stormy as those in the Baiyan Mountains, the river surface is unusually wide and unobstructed. Especially at this moment, the defenders of Xiaoxiang City were actually lined up by the river outside the city, with swords and guns, bright armor, and waiting for the battle.
Xiao Chuan, Ling Su and Leng Yaoqing were condescending on the west bank, and after observing for a long time, they felt that the other side had an advantage in terms of numbers and geography, and it seemed that this battle was quite difficult.
"This is what you call the Zhong Family's army?" Xiao Chuan asked Leng Yaoqing as he looked at the sergeant on the other side.
"Yes, many cities in the Western Regions of Li Tang are guarded by the Zhong family. Leng Yaoqing affirmed his words.
"It seems that they have already learned the news that we have taken Baiyan Mountain, but they have not sent reinforcements, and they are going to fight a decisive battle with us in this Xiaoxiang City. Ling Su looked solemnly at the defenders below who were at least more than 10,000 people and said.
"It's okay, let's go down the mountain, and then bury the pot and make food, and let them watch. Ogawa replied with a big grin, and walked towards the bank at the foot of the mountain.
The two armies stood opposite each other along the wide river.
"Report to the general! The vanguard of Li Qianmo's army has reached the other side of the Heicang River!"
In Xiaoxiang City, a tall middle-aged man was listening to the report of the sergeant, and there was a brightly dressed young man standing next to him, who was Zhong Shenxiu, who had clashed with Xiaochuan and Li Qianmo in the Northern Army.
"Third uncle, our Zhong family must drive them out?" The soldier retreated, and Zhong Shenxiu asked the middle-aged man with some hesitation.
"Nephew, you must not have the kindness of a woman, my Zhong family has taken refuge in the current saint many years ago, and planned with him the affairs of Chang'an. Therefore, all those who are opposite your majesty are your enemies to me. ”
He glanced at Zhong Shenxiu and continued, "I know that you are interested in that Li Qianmo, so I will capture it and hand it over to you." Then it was announced to the public that she had fallen into the river and died, and who would really investigate? Your Majesty had to destroy her army. ”
"But can we really win? According to the report from the defenders of Baiyan Mountain, although they do not have many troops, they are the elite of the border army. Zhong Shenxiu's expression softened a little when he heard this, but when he thought of the other party's strength, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
"There is the Heicang River natural danger, and there are 30,000 elite soldiers of our Zhong family here, and the head of the family is sending another 10,000 elite soldiers to reinforce, you can rest assured. A sly look flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, but he looked confident.
"Pass the order, except for the sentry guards, the rest of the people will eat and sleep, and act at night," Zuo Xiaochuan of the Heicang River was clean and neat, and he didn't study the tactics, but just ordered the sergeants to rest first.
Leng Yaoqing expressed his opinion, and also thought of a few suggestions for Xiao Chuan to cross the river, but Xiao Chuan turned a deaf ear and ignored it at all.
Who let Li Qianmo only give him a lieutenant general, although he was puzzled and dissatisfied, but he could only listen to Xiaochuan's orders, but he was more careful in his heart.
Tonight there is no bright moon wheel that night, only the faint starlight in the sky is coming, and with the whimpering wind by the river, it is really a dark and windy night of the month.
Xiao Chuan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, and he immediately arranged for everyone to quietly get up and assemble. Among the 10,000 Xingyao army, the most powerful 1,000 people were selected, and the rest of the people were stationed in the camp to stand by, and the 1,000 people took off their gorgeous armor, changed into black power suits, and quietly went north along the river under the leadership of Xiao Chuan.
After quietly coming to the side of the Zhong family's army on the opposite side, Xiao Chuan finally stopped, the terrain on both sides of the river here was flat, he nodded with satisfaction, and then put his hand into the river on the shore in his cold and incomprehensible gaze.
"Are you ......" Leng Yaoqing was just about to ask, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him, the river surface that was more than a kilometer wide was rapidly condensing, but in the blink of an eye, a huge thick layer of ice was formed, and the river passed under this ice layer without being hindered in the slightest.
It's not that Leng Yaoqing hasn't thought of this way, but if such a wide river wants to freeze quickly, it must require an extremely strong ice attribute spirit weapon and the strength of the Spirit Realm to make it possible, but how did Zuo Xiaochuan do it?
"Don't be stunned, cross the river!" Xiao Chuan roared at the people behind him, and jumped on the ice first.
Everyone followed, and they all followed Xiao Chuan's instructions to suppress their spiritual power and quietly walk quickly towards the opposite bank.
Although it was midnight, the defenders outside Xiaoxiang City were still highly guarded, and they had sufficient troops, constantly changing positions and positions, always keeping an eye on the troops on the other side.
"Something!"
Suddenly, someone in the defenders noticed a blue light flickering on the dark river in the distance.
That blue light is approaching at a rapid pace, it seems to be a rune?
"Enemy attack!" the man shouted hoarsely, but almost at the same moment, the rune slammed into the flanks of the defenders' array.
"Boom!" A loud sound broke the silence of the riverside, and the large array was suddenly blasted open a huge gap, and the screams of the defenders were endless.
Xiaochuan blue Mo knife in hand, rushed into the formation first.
The blue light flickered and was truly invincible, and all those who dared to resist were either cut in two or turned into ice sculptures under the strong cold breath there.
The Thousand Stars Army behind him quickly formed a mirror wall of silver light with the light shield in his hand, and swept through the large array, and immediately the people turned on their backs.
Leng Yaoqing followed Xiao Chuan's side all the way, but he just watched with some curiosity as Xiao Chuan fought with people, and did not make a move. Yu Guang glanced at this guy who couldn't work hard, Xiao Chuan couldn't help but feel itchy in his teeth, but at the moment, it was important to defeat the enemy, and he couldn't care about anything else.
Ogawa was very clever not to charge head-on in the main formation, so when he was already passing through the camp from the side, the generals stationed in front of him hurried to arrive.
"Boom!" Several extremely powerful spiritual power impacts roared, finally resisting Xiao Chuan's indomitable progress.
"Three Ascension Realm?" Xiao Chuan looked at the three guards who stopped in front of him and was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that this Zhong family was really powerful, and they were three masters casually.
One of them seems familiar?
"Who's the camper!" shouted the leader, furiously. I didn't expect to have the habit of getting a name before the battle?
"Princess Wenning's account is a pioneer, Zuo Xiaochuan!"
Zuo Xiaochuan stood with a horizontal knife and shouted loudly.
"It's you!" but there was an exclamation from the other side. Xiao Chuan fixed his eyes and saw that it was a very familiar young man, the Zhong family......
Zhong Shenxiu!
Xiaochuan remembered that he came to the Qianmo army to provoke and not save their regiment, although he had righteousness as an excuse at that time, but Zuo Xiaochuan was cautious.
Zuo Xiaochuan Mo swung his knife, and the blue spiritual power around his body instantly churned, and his figure flashed, and he suddenly came to Zhong Shenxiu with a surging cold current.
The Mo knife in his hand was like a meteorite falling from the sky, and the blue light flickered, accompanied by a frictional sound of freezing air, and slashed towards Zhong Shenxiu's head.
Xiao Chuan's sudden outburst caught Zhong Shenxiu, who was still in shock, off guard, and Xiao Chuan's Mo knife had already arrived when he just raised the spirit weapon in his hand.
With a crisp sound, Zhong Shenxiu's spiritual weapon was instantly split, and he was also knocked to the ground by Xiao Chuan in a scream.
However, Xiao Chuan chased closely, the Mo knife in his hand flashed, and the majestic spiritual power light blade instantly lit up the entire sky, and in the roar, the light blade slashed towards Zhong Shenxiu again.
"Bastard!" the guard who was the leader shouted, and with a move of the spiritual weapon in his hand, the red light in the sky converged, and collided with Xiaochuan's fierce attack. Among the three, he was the strongest, and he was obviously already the strength of the Xuan Netherworld of the Ascension Realm.
And the other Spirit Ascension Realm powerhouse also took the opportunity to attack Xiao Chuan, and the long knife in his hand slashed towards Xiao Chuan's back.
"Leng Yaoqing, cut him for General Ben!" Xiao Chuan didn't look at the two strong men again, but just roared angrily at Leng Yaoqing.
The man's long knife had already slashed at Xiao Chuan's back, but he didn't make any resistance, but instead used his strength to come in front of Zhong Shenxiu, who had not yet risen from the ground.
"Go to the underworld and explain your bad deeds to Lord Yama!" With his roar, Xiao Chuan raised the Mo knife in his hand again!
Facing Zuo Xiaochuan, who was like a killing god, Zhong Shenxiu couldn't imagine why that child-like and fragile kid in his eyes had become so powerful, so that he had no power to resist when he was at the peak of the Ascending Spirit Realm.
In Zhong Shenxiu's unusually frightened gaze, Xiao Chuan's Mo knife slashed down.
