Chapter 287: The Netherworld Army

"Do you know that the more peaceful the time, the weaker the way of magic, and the thunder of the charm is also rare in the world, such as in the Kaihuang period. And whenever the world is turbulent, the world is often full of evil and rampant, sorcerers are rampant, and miracles of Taoism are not uncommon?"

Listening to Li Xiaoji's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What does Sixth Uncle mean, do you think there will be troubled times coming next?"

He had indeed heard that whenever there was a war in the world, it was the time for the manifestation of magic.

For example, in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, it was not uncommon to see super-large spells such as summoning clouds and rain, meteorites falling from the sky, and even shaking the earth and shaking mountains.

"I haven't said that, but the current situation is unreassuring. Since the beginning of the eighth year of the Great Cause, this pile of piles has never been done one by one, even if the first emperor first obtained the great treasure, when the throne was not yet stable. ”

Li Xiaoji sighed lightly: "I hope that as you expected, Erlang, the Son of Heaven and the Sui Chamber can suppress these turmoil and let the world return to peace." ”

"Taiping?"

Li Shimin couldn't help but be silent, thinking that it was not easy for the world to return to the peace of the Kaihuang period.

In his opinion, today's rebellion is actually just a minor trouble. The real trouble is actually the next two expeditions to Goguryeo.

For example, the people of today, they are deeply disgusted by the heavy burdens of the Great Sui, and they are overwhelmed. Shandong, Hebei, and even Jiangnan are full of bandits.

Unless the Sui family can fight against Goguryeo in a war and spend a few more years to recuperate, I am afraid that it will be difficult to restore the grand occasion of the Kaihuang period in this world.

Of course, he is still full of confidence in the Son of Heaven and the Sui family. In the warehouses of the Great Sui, the money and grain are still piled up, and the forged ink armor is still hundreds of thousands of huge pieces, and the soldiers are brave and brave. Most of the famous generals in the Kaihuang period are still alive, and rising stars like Qin Qiong and Cheng Biting Jin have also begun to emerge.

"Don't talk about thisβ€”"

Li Xiaoji shook his head, took the initiative to stop the topic, and turned to look in front of him: "Virusha, which great grandmaster will you say such a large-scale illusion fog technique will be?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled bitterly: "It won't be Yuan Wenshu." ”

There are only seven great masters of magic that are known to the world today. Coupled with those who are hidden and infamous, as well as the strongest people of foreign races, the total number will never exceed twenty.

But Li Shimin thought about it, and no one could match it.

"I think of a man who is very good at water magic. In the past, when Nanchen was not extinguished, it made my Sui army suffer a lot. If he's still aliveβ€”"

Lee Hyo-gi was just talking about this, but he heard several female screams suddenly coming from the back of the camp.

After the two of them looked at each other, they couldn't help but be stunned.

"I'll take a look, it's troublesome for Uncle Six to help me keep an eye on it. ”

Li Shimin immediately jumped up, his body turned into a light smoke, and swept towards the back of the camp.

Originally, Li Shimin thought that a strong enemy had infiltrated the camp, but when he came to the back camp more than 100 zhang away from the lookout, he found that everyone, including Yan Wang Yang Qi and the little princess, were all in a circle at this time, looking inside.

In the center of them were scattered skeleton shelves, as well as several pits that were clearly newly excavated.

"What's going on?"

Li Shimin directly asked Wei Ruo, the general of Xiuyilang, according to his arrangement with Tang Yuanhua, Gong Yuanji and Wei Ruo took turns to take care of the tents of several princes and little princesses.

"It was these skeletons of bones that suddenly crawled out of the ground. ”

Without waiting for Wei Ruo to speak, the little princess rushed to answer, and at the same time her delicate body trembled slightly: "You didn't see the scene just now, it's weird and scary." Fortunately, it didn't take much to fight, and the guards knocked a few times with knives, and then they broke up directly. But the smell is really bad. ”

Li Shimin didn't pay attention, still looking at Wei Ruo, but the latter let out a light breath: "It should be just like what the general thinks, this is the secret technique of necromancy!"

Li Shimin suddenly leaned his body back slightly, and his eyes flashed with awe-inspiring meaning.

At this time, Li Xiaoji's voice also sounded directly in his ears: "Vilusha, these skeletons seem to be more than one place. ”

Li Shimin immediately jumped up, his body soared to a height of ten zhang, and looked down. Sure enough, there were skeletons of bones crawling out of the ground on all sides of the camp.

Some of these skeletons are beasts, some of them have been rotten for a long time, some of them are rotten flesh on their bodies, which are not completely rotten, and some of them are even holding weapons and wearing ink armor fragments, and the smell of rot and foul smell permeates all parts of the camp.

And it's not just him here, it's the same with the rest of the camps, even the royal camp.

"This must be the art of the undead, the Netherworld Underworld! is one of the top necromancy. ”

Five Thunder God Lie Zhenjun Zhang Kongming rushed over with a pale face: "We may need realgar, a large amount of realgar!"

"The Netherworld?"

At this moment, Li Shimin's mood was extremely bad.

β€» β€» β€» β€»

At the same time, somewhere about sixty miles away from the imperial camp, Tu Wanxu, the general of Zuotunwei, stood on a watchtower car with his hands on his back, staring coldly at the surroundings.

The surrounding mist was so thick that even the sorcerers accompanying the army could not completely remove it. It could only summon a strong wind and temporarily blow the fog five miles away.

And not immune to the influence of those hallucinogenic aerosols, the 20,000 forbidden troops under the command of Tu Wanxu are constantly pouring into this narrow area with a diameter of less than ten miles under the urging of his military orders.

"General, this is clearly someone trying to do wrong!"

He Xiong, one of Tu Wanxu's deputy generals, was standing on the stairs behind Tu Wanxu at this time, and said worriedly: "This must be a great master of magic. ”

"Do you still have to say that?"

Tu Wanxu snorted softly and looked at an array not far from the watchtower car: "Yuan Jiancheng, can't you break this fog?"

"This is a god-level grand master-"

The host on the altar was Qin Tianjian Cheng Yuan Lie, who had a look full of embarrassment: "The other party is obviously prepared, it is not easy for me and a few others to be able to do this, and there is no way to do more." In addition, I think the hallucinogenic power of this phantom fog is far more than I estimated. ”

Tu Wanxu did not hesitate and instructed He Xiong: "Order all the armies to assemble faster." Who would dare to grind again, Lao Tzu cut off his head!"

At this moment, the soldiers who had already entered the safe area and lined up all let out exclamations.

Tu Wanxu also saw the surrounding situation, which was hundreds of human and animal corpses, crawling out from under the ground. Although these things were shattered one by one by the soldiers of the forbidden army at the moment they appeared, and they did not have time to hurt people, they still caused a commotion in the whole army.

"What's going on?"

Although Tu Wanxu is also well-informed, the scene in front of him is still beyond his cognition.

"Why are so many dead bones popping up all of a sudden?

This necromancy technique is famous on the battlefield, but Tu Wanxu has never seen it, and has only heard of its name.

"This, I think it should be the rumored forbidden Yin Kingdom Underworld!"

Yuan Lie's expression was slightly hesitant, and it was clear that he was not sure enough: "More than a thousand years ago, in the Battle of Kunyang, Zhang Daoquan, the great master of magic under the command of Emperor Guangwu, once used this technique to summon 370,000 underworld troops, blocking Wang Yi, and Wang Xun's million-strong army lasted for two whole days. ”

Tu Wanxu's face was slightly pale, he had naturally heard of this big battle that won more with less and went down in history. The battle between the two sides between the two digital magic masters was wonderful.

It is rumored that Zhang Daoquan blocked the million-strong army with his own strength, and won a crucial two days for Emperor Guangwu. After that, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty had a chance to breathe, and in the subsequent decisive battle, under the cover of meteorites falling from the sky, with 3,000 elites who dared to die, they destroyed Wang Yi and Wang Xunzhong's army, thus burying the new dynasty.

"Is it really the Netherworld Army?"

Tu Wanxu's eyes flickered.

If this is really the case, then the situation of the Son of Heaven is only afraid of danger-

Yuan Lie hurriedly explained: "I think it shouldn't be as serious as you think, General, in the past, the underworld army recruited by Zhang Daoquan had a large number of desolate beast bones, as well as sharp soldiers who died during the Warring States Period, but nowβ€”β€”"

Tu Wanxu's expression was slightly relieved at this time, and now in this Central Plains, not only are the wild beasts extinct, but even the cannibal beasts like tigers and leopards are rare.

As for the army during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it is also recognized that its combat power is far above today.

"In other words, the power of this Yin Kingdom Underworld Army is actually not as good as before, right?"

"I can't guarantee this. ”

Yuan Lie hesitated again: "It depends on the scope of the Yin Kingdom Underworld Army's magic and how lucky it is. Speaking of Xingyang, this placeβ€”"

As he spoke, his face turned pale again.

Tu Wanxu glared at him fiercely, this guy has a lot of nonsense, and if he says it, he doesn't say it.

However, before he had time to reprimand Yuan Lie, his eyes were attracted by the scene in the distance,

In the thick fog, there were also many human and beast skeletons, crawling out of the ground, and driven by a mysterious force, they went in the direction of the west. A group of three or five, the formation is sparse, but it is endless. Gradually, a large group of skeletons gathered and became an army. Among them are not skeletons, there are also many dried corpses, with red light all over them, and the momentum is strange and hideous.

Even with the heart of the city, at this time, it can't help but change color,

"General!"

Just when Tu Wanxu's face was extremely cold, Yuan Lie interrupted his thoughts.

"Captain Yu has arrived, and he should have come from the imperial camp. ”

Tu Wanxu turned to look back, only to see a group of knights galloping in the thick fog to the west. The middle person, wearing red armor, hugged his fist towards Tu Wanxu from afar.

"General Tuwan, Your Majesty has an order, and now there are demons who are causing trouble and have bad intentions. Order the headquarters of General Zuotun Wei to return reinforcements as appropriate to defend the Chinese army!"

Tu Wanxu suddenly raised his thick eyebrows slightly, looking at the white mist in the sky, his eyes were tangled.

But the worse news came from a scout from the other direction: "General, Kudi Zhongqi's headquarters is gone. ”
