361 Wen Zhong's dilemma
Because he had the army in mind, Wen Zhong didn't see many Daoists, but only brought back ten Daoists who were cultivating together in the same place. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Back at the barracks, Wen Zhong first asked if there was any movement of the northern rebels on the opposite side when he left. But in return, the other party did not move.
It's just that since the last time the monks on their side suffered heavy casualties, the merchant army did not dare to send monks to cast spell detectives, after all, the monks in the place are very strange, no matter what kind of spell the monks on the merchant side use to investigate, they can be discovered by the other party immediately.
After several confrontations between the monks, the monks on the side of the merchant army did not dare to act rashly anymore.
However, the monks in the northern rebel army behaved very strangely, no matter how Wen Zhong tempted, or even directly sent monks to infiltrate the northern army with spells, he could not detect the traces of those monks, and let those monks not exist at all.
However, Wen Zhong could sense the other party's mana fluctuations very clearly.
It's just that the mana fluctuations he sensed were completely different from the mana fluctuations of the Five Elements that Wen Zhong was familiar with, and Wen Zhong never knew which sect the monks in the other army's army were.
At the beginning, for the sake of safety, Wen Zhong adopted a posture of holding out, trying to make the northern rebels retreat without a fight by consuming the military rations of the rebels.
However, the ten loose cultivators sent by Di Xin did not follow and insisted on seeing the reality of the other monk.
Wen Zhong had no choice but to agree to the ten monks to fight, but the result of the battle was that under the same face, the ten scattered cultivators were all killed by the opposing monks' golden light, and their souls were scattered, and not even a single true spirit escaped.
Moreover, this battle ended in an instant, so that Wen Zhong did not have time to rescue at all, and at the same time, he did not find out the magic characteristics of the opposing monk through the exchange of spells.
And the monk on the other side didn't even show his face!
It's just the golden light that comes out of the opposing monk. Wen Zhong sensed the aura of the five elements.
Those ten loose cultivators were wiped out in an instant, which also led to the low morale of the merchant army and the sneak attack of the northern rebels!
And the Northern Rebels are not at all the same as the Northern Army that has fought countless battles in Wen Zhong's impression!
In Wen Zhong's impression of the Northern Army, the fighting ability of the warriors is stronger than that of the Terran warriors, but there are not many rules to fight, and they all rely on personal martial arts and the way of swarming.
However, this time the northern rebels were proficient in battle formations, coupled with their personal combat strength superior to that of the Terran warriors. Therefore, he was able to use more than 200,000 troops to resist the more than 400,000 merchant troops led by Wen Zhong himself.
The current situation is that in terms of ordinary combat strength, the merchant army is not much different from the northern rebel army, and it may be that the merchant army will have a slight upper hand due to the numerical advantage.
In terms of monks, because he couldn't figure out the origin of the northern monks and the characteristics of their spells, Wen Zhong's prediction in his heart was that the monks in the northern army would have an advantage over his own. Because although Wen Zhong didn't know the characteristics of the other party's spells, from the mana aura of the five elements, Wen Zhong could tell that the realm of the other party's monk was at least a high-level golden immortal!
Moreover, judging from the fact that the other party destroyed his own ten middle-level Golden Immortal level cultivators in an instant, the other party may even be a Da Luo Golden Immortal!
And among the merchant army, only Wen Zhong himself is a high-level golden immortal!
But the monks in the Northern Army never showed up. Nor did they take the initiative to attack the merchant army.
Moreover, the leader of the Northern Army, Yuan Futong, has never shown up, so Wen Zhong has always been confused about the Northern Army, and he doesn't know what the intention of the Northern Army is to attack this time, but he does not choose to fight a quick battle with the Shang Army as before.
Judging comprehensively, Wen Zhong also had no choice but to confront the rebels in the north.
It's just that since Chonghei Tiger established himself as the Northern Bohou. Although he did not attack Wen Zhong's merchant army from behind, the shadow in Wen Zhong's heart became bigger and bigger. I vaguely feel that I have jumped into a trap against myself.
A few days later, just when Wen Zhong was worried about the dwindling supply of grain and grass in the army, a loud report came from outside the account: "Qi Taishi, the detective soldier has something important to report!" ”
Wen Zhong hurriedly let the detective soldier into the account, and listened to the soldier's report: "Qi Yu Taishi, our detectives have not moved at all in the northern military camp. And some of the birds fell into the northern barracks. ”
"It seems that the Northern Army has disappeared for some reason, so I immediately came to report to the Taishi!"
When Wen Zhong heard this, he immediately stood up, ordered the generals and monks to be gathered immediately, and stood outside the big tent and watched the direction of the northern army camp from afar.
Really. In the sky above the camp of the Northern Army, you can clearly see that there are birds circling, not that birds are flying down and falling into the camp, as if they are pecking at the food left in the camp.
Moreover, the mysterious mana fluctuations in the northern army camp have also disappeared completely.
Just as the generals and all the monks rushed to the vicinity of the big tent, Wen Zhong shouted loudly: "Xin Huan, fly over and observe immediately, and see if the northern military camp is an empty camp!" ”
"Yes! The last general commands! Before he finished speaking, he saw a general with two wings on his back spread his wings and flew quickly towards the northern army camp.
After a while, the general flew back and landed in front of Wen Taishi, clasped his fists and replied: "Back to Taishi, Xin Huan checked all the northern army camps and found that it was already an empty camp, and there was no one in it!" ”
Wen Zhong's brows suddenly furrowed, and he asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
Xin Huan replied: "The last general didn't find anything wrong, and the last general found that in the other party's camp, all the grain, grass, weapons and other things disappeared, and only some flags were still planted there, probably to confuse our army." ”
This Xin Huan is a Terran alien, that is, a Terran who has had a strange encounter. Originally, he was an ordinary human race, but by chance, he accidentally ate a fruit, and he gave birth to two fleshy wings on his back, and at the same time, he also became bright-eyed and powerful. After being included in the army by Wen Zhong, he has been the general in charge of detectives and has won Wen Zhong's trust.
After Wen Zhong heard Xin Huan's return, he thought about it for a while, but he still didn't have a clue.
After all, judging from all indications, the Northern Army has never been short of food, and it has won a big victory, just when morale is high, there is no reason to take the lead in withdrawing troops.
Wen Zhong hurriedly ordered Xin Huan to fly farther to investigate.
As a result, after some investigation, no abnormal situation was found, and the Northern Army disappeared as if out of thin air, without a trace! (To be continued.) )
