Flying all the way to the northwest, on the third day, Yi Jiuxiao saw an army.

This is exactly the army of Ning Guo, it seems that there are no rumored 100,000, only more than 80,000 people, and it is likely that there will be attrition in the previous battle.

But it is also overwhelming, and the whole team stretches for hundreds of miles.

After seeing the army, Yi Jiuxiao did not follow, but increased his altitude and used the clouds to cover his figure.

Because there were five Jindan monks in the team, there must have been a fierce battle after being discovered.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a Jindan monk in the team to rise into the air, observing the enemy situation with his divine thoughts.

But he didn't find Yi Jiuxiao, because Yi Jiuxiao had no mana fluctuations in his body, and he was no different from an ordinary bird in the air.

This observation takes place every two hours, and is not the same person, and appears to take turns in the air.

In this case, it is difficult to sneak attack or ambush, it can only be hard, and the combat method of the monk army is really different from that of mortals.

Yi Jiuxiao felt that in the future, when he faced the army of monks, he should adjust his combat thinking, and he could not completely apply the mortal tactics of the Great Song Dynasty in his previous life.

However, this kind of air reconnaissance is based on building one's own strength, for example, there are only a few hundred bandit teams, and even if the bandit leader is a Jindan monk, he does not dare to rise into the air at will.

When the time comes, I can't see others, but I expose myself in advance.

Ningguo's army was heading west, which made Yi Jiuxiao feel a lot more relieved, his team was in the southwest of Shizhou, and he would not encounter it according to this route.

But Yi Jiuxiao didn't return, he wanted to follow Ning Guo's team to see what the other party wanted to do, and he also wanted to see the large-scale battle between the monk army, which would definitely be of great benefit to him in commanding the army in the future.

At night, the team set up camp, and Yi Jiuxiao also fell from the sky and hid in the mountains and forests.

On the second day, the team set off, and Yi Jiuxiao took off as usual, following closely while observing the strength of the army.

He found that the 80,000 troops were all cavalry and chariot cavalry, and there was no infantry as a troop, which was very different from the Great Song army, which was dominated by infantry.

The 80,000-strong army was not a single unit, but was composed of several formations.

Every 1,000 people are a formation, of which 600 are the main attackers, 200 are the main defense, and 200 are miscellaneous servants.

This method of formation is very similar to Yi Jiuxiao's forbidden army formation, and it seems that it is also a formation method commonly used by all countries.

The soldiers and soldiers are all qi refining cultivators, most of them are below the fifth level of qi refining, and even those are at the first level of qi refining.

This kind of monk has low mana and low combat effectiveness, and it is not much different from ordinary mortals.

It can't be compared with Yi Jiuxiao's forbidden army, after all, these five hundred forbidden troops were carefully selected by King Anyuan.

After seven days of continuous tracking, Yi Jiuxiao finally saw a battle, and a Wei army of more than 20,000 people was blocking it in front.

There were two early Jin Dan masters in the Wei army, and as soon as the battle began, the two Jin Dan rose into the air.

Immediately, four Jin Dan in the Ning army rose into the air, forming a two-to-one situation.

In just a moment, the two Jin Dans of the Wei State were defeated and injured, and they flew away in the air, and the four Jin Dans of the Ning State pursued them away.

Ground battles are much slower, with a formation of soldiers per 1,000 men fighting each other, and all kinds of defensive and offensive magic weapons flying all over the sky, and the scene is spectacular.

Due to the narrow terrain, although the Ningguo army had a large number of people, it could not form a siege and could only fight layer by layer face face to face.

As a result, there were casualties among each other, and it was difficult to distinguish between the top and the bottom for a while.

After playing for half a day, it was all a strong attack, the queue and formation were very simple, and there was no tactics to speak of.

In the end, the 20,000 soldiers of Wei were almost killed and wounded, and the soldiers of Ning also lost nearly 20,000, and more than 60,000 people remained of the previous 80,000 army.

Yi Jiuxiao didn't dare to agree with this kind of hard fighting, although in his previous life he died to block the Liao soldiers, but it was a helpless move.

It seems that the troops in the north of Wei are also stretched, otherwise they would not have shaken the opponent's 80,000 army with 20,000 people, and this practice of hitting stones with eggs is purely sacrificing the lives of the sergeants in vain.

This also aroused Yi Jiuxiao's curiosity, and he really wanted to see how the two sides would fight in the back.

Ning's army did not march immediately, but cleaned up the battlefield, treated the wounded, and reintegrated the attrition formation.

The four pursuing Jin Dan also flew back, and I don't know if they killed the two Wei Jin Dan who escaped.

Seeing that the team didn't leave, Yi Jiuxiao also fell from the sky and hid in the nearby mountains and forests.

Early the next morning, the procession started again, continuing westward, approaching the western border of Shizhou.

Beyond this border was another state in the north of Wei, called Hezhou.

Hezhou was not a border state, and was separated from the Zhou state in the north. According to the report of the early Tanma, the queen and the crown prince are in Hezhou.

The army of Ning Guo marched straight to Hezhou, Yi Jiuxiao judged that it must be related to the queen and the crown prince, could it be that the Feng family colluded with Ning Guo?

If you think about it carefully, this Ning State is a small country, but it is only a vassal state of the Zhou State, and the Feng family must be colluding with the Zhou State.

Thinking of the Feng family, Yi Jiuxiao was angry, and hatred rose from his heart.

On the way to Wei, he was trapped in a lost dream by Feng Xihai and almost lost his life, but fortunately with the help of the demon turtle clan, he was able to get out safely.

After thinking about it, he decided to stir up a troubled water and help the Li family deal with the Feng family, which can be regarded as revenge!

Originally, he was just scouting the enemy's situation, and he didn't help all sides, because these parties were all enemies to him.

Now Yi Jiuxiao has changed his mind, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, the Feng family has directly hurt him, and the Li family is just a potential and false enemy.

Now the Feng family colluded with the Zhou State, which was very unfavorable to both its homeland Qi State and its plan to attack the Ning State.

After figuring it out, Yi Jiuxiao no longer followed, but bypassed Ning Guo's army from the side and flew directly in the direction of Hezhou.

He wants to find the queen and the crown prince in Hezhou, inform them of the progress of Ningguo's army, and maybe help him.

After being promoted to the realm of the Martial King, Yi Jiuxiao believed that it was still easy to deal with the ordinary Jin Dan head-on.

In the battle between the monk armies, the decisive strength is not only in the number of people, but more importantly, in the combat power of the main general.

Although the flight speed is not as fast as expected, it is also much faster than the ground march.

Yi Jiuxiao flew over Hezhou, overlooking the ground, trying to find traces of the Empress and the Prince's army.

I don't know if it was because of the wrong flight path or other reasons, he flew in the air for three days without finding a trace.

In desperation, he flew to Hezhou City, the capital of Hezhou.

Hezhou City is undoubtedly a big city, stretching for hundreds of miles, magnificent.

Yi Jiuxiao did not fly directly into the city, but landed outside the city, and then rented a horse and entered the city.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, he found that the examination was extremely severe, but fortunately he had no mana fluctuations, and the defenders thought he was a mortal, and after a few glances, they let him pass.

After entering the city, Yi Jiuxiao had no time to wander, and after a little inquiry, he went straight in the direction of the state capital.

He had to go directly to Hezhou Taishou to inquire, because Taishou was very likely to know.

The traces of the queen and the crown prince must be very secretive, and they are not something that passers-by can inquire about.

But Taishou should know that as long as the queen and the crown prince are really in Hezhou.

When he arrived at the gate of the state capital, Yi Jiuxiao was stopped by the guards in front of the door.

Originally, he wanted the defenders to go in and report it, but the defenders didn't buy it at all, and scolded and chased him.

Yi Jiuxiao suddenly became angry, his body shook, and the eight defenders all fell to the ground and rolled, and they didn't even have time to take out the magic weapon.

After shaking off the defenders, he stepped directly into the gates of the state capital.

When the steward inside the door saw the situation, he didn't dare to stop Yi Jiuxiao, and rushed to the house.

The state capital is very large, the hall is deep, and as soon as Yi Jiuxiao walked through the vestibule, he saw a man standing more than a dozen miles away.

This person looked like he was in his early thirties, and his face was elegant, and I saw him shouting: "What kind of person?

Immediately afterwards, a huge coercion came to him, which was the coercion of Jindan in the early days.

From the coercion of Yi Jiuxiao alone, it can be judged that the person who sees it must be Hezhou Taishou.

The coercion in the early stage of Jindan may be useful to others, but compared to Yi Jiuxiao, it is not as good as a breeze.

He stopped lightly and looked at the person in front of him: "Who are you?"

"I'm Hezhou Taishou Gage, I don't know what happened to my state capital?"

Taishou's tone has obviously changed, no longer as domineering as at the beginning, but has become a lot more respectful.

At the same time, he also restrained his own momentum, because he couldn't see through Yi Jiuxiao, he was obviously a mortal, but he was indifferent under his momentum.

There is only one possibility, this mortal in front of him is higher in cultivation than him, how dare he make a mistake.

"Of course there's something wrong with you, Ning Guo's army has hit your doorstep. ”

"It's not convenient to talk here, please drive inside. ”

As soon as Gage stretched out his hand, made a gesture of invitation, and let Yi Jiuxiao into a living room in the middle hall.

After Yi Jiuxiao sat down, he asked again: "I don't know if you have a noble surname, and I hope to give advice." ”

Yi Jiuxiao felt that he shouldn't take a shelf anymore at this time, so he replied: "I am Yi Jiuxiao of Qi Kingdom, because I escorted the princess to your country, and happened to see the invasion of the Ning army, and I want to inform the queen and the crown prince of your country about this. ”

"It turned out to be the deputy envoy, Gage has admired the name for a long time, I didn't expect the lord to come to Hezhou today, I am fortunate to be happy!"

Gage's words surprised Yi Jiuxiao, but he didn't expect the other party to know his name.

I was going to go through some words to explain, but it seems that there is no need.

Since the other party knows himself so clearly, he must also be clear about the collusion between the Feng family and the Zhou State, and if he says it, is it a bit redundant?

Although he was constantly thinking in his heart, he was still modest in his mouth: "Yi Jiuxiao is too disturbing, don't be surprised!"

"Thank you, Your Excellency, Deputy Envoy, for informing you of the enemy's situation, and I have also received news about the Ningguo army's march into Hezhou, and I am trying to deal with it. ”

Sure enough, as Yi Jiuxiao expected, the other party already knew about the enemy's situation, so there was no need to talk any further.

Then he stood up and said, "Since Lord Taishou already knows, I will take my leave!"
