After discussing for a while, the officers of the army after the night tour still did not agree on their opinions, and the marshal of the night tour was also hesitant. It is not possible to rest on the spot, nor can it be possible to send troops to raid first, which makes everyone wonder: Is Marshal Night Tour already out of proportion after this battle, has become indecisive, and has made a mistake in advancing and retreating?

Bai Gui, the Yin general of the former army, was wounded in the battle with the ghost army, and he was wrapped in bandages on his head and shoulders. He had been holding back his words just now, but he still seemed to be resentful, and at this time, he stood up and said: "Marshal, no matter what, destroying the Soul Detention Array is the most important task of our army this time, and it must not be delayed!" No matter how many casualties there are, we must go to stop the ghost army from continuing to rebel! ”

"The last general is not talented, I am willing to ask Ying to lead a thousand men and horses to go to a decisive battle with the ghost army, and wait for the crime to make meritorious service! As for the casualties, the last general is also willing to sign a military order, and if there is another mistake, all the responsibility will be borne by me alone! When the time comes, the marshal will carry my head to the king of Yama! ”

Everyone was shocked, and there was silence in the military tent all of a sudden.

Military writ?

That means that if Bai Gui fails again, all the blame can be put on him, including the previous casualties. Marshal Night Tour has this military order, it can be inferred that Bai Gui took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the main force of the Night Tour Army to attack first, but because he was too reckless to fight for merit, there were such large casualties.

In this way, even if the marshal of the night tour still can't shirk the responsibility of knowing people wrongly, the main responsibility is borne by Bai Gui, and the price paid is only Bai Gui's head!

How can such a good scapegoat take the initiative to send it?

Marshal Night Tour pondered for a moment, and sure enough, he agreed. But he added: "A thousand troops are still a little less. In this case, I will give you another 500 canine cavalry, and Shen Turen will lead you with you, but you will have full command! ”

"The last general obeys!" Bai Gui replied loudly.

The plan was decided, and the marshal of the night tour left all the wounded soldiers and a small number of troops with serious shortcomings to rest on the spot, and took the night tour rear army, which had the most complete combat effectiveness, as the backbone, and then drew another 500 Yin soldiers from other armies to form an advance team of 1,500 to continue to rush to the location of the ghost army's magic circle to carry out the sabotage mission. However, this time the commander who led the team was replaced by Bai Gui, who wrote the military order.

For Bai Gui, this is either a victory or a death, either to save some face, or to lose his head!

Although Bai Gui largely relied on the background of Marshal Night Tour to become this Yin general, he still has the ability to command operations. He then took advantage of the ease with which the canine cavalry could come and go, and scattered many cavalry scouts in the front and rear and in various forks in the road to expand the reconnaissance area, while carefully leading the large infantry force to advance steadily.

It took us a day and a half to complete the journey on the last day. But all the way to the place cautiously walked to see that the ghost army had already withdrawn, and even the soul detention circle had been completely wiped out, and the only thing that remained on the scene was the dense resentment that permeated the underground cave.

According to the estimation of the remaining grievances, the number of unjust souls forcibly intercepted by the ghost army this time is probably not a few, there are tens of thousands. Of course, these trapped souls were almost certainly captured by the ghost army, either as ghost soldiers or as ghost slaves.

Alas, we still had too much time to delay after marching on the road and after being ambushed! After running hard for more than half a month, more than 1,000 people died, and I still pounced!

But at this point, the strategic goal given by King Yama can at least be completed. So, Bai Gui led our 1,500 Yin soldiers back to return to the night tour. Night You, who got the news, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and convened a meeting of officers again to discuss how to report the casualties after returning.

Such a disastrous defeat must not be reported truthfully. However, the number of casualties was so large that they could not hide it, and they did not dare to make false reports, so they had to report half of the actual and half of the false reports. The actual report is the casualties of our troops, and the false report is the casualties of the enemy troops.

Anyway, it is not a matter of how many ghost soldiers the ghost army has killed, and the marshal of the night tour simply falsely reported the number of enemies destroyed to fifteen thousand. Compared with the 1,500 killed by the Yin army, this number of enemies still maintained a battle loss rate of about 1:10.

However, after returning to the underworld, Marshal Night Tour's small abacus failed to start. The king of Yama, who got the battle report, was still furious!

He is not a fool, the casualty rate of the Night Patrol Army this time is too high, and it is impossible for the Ghost Army to have ten times the strength of the Yin Army. The fact of such a fiasco cannot be fooled by playing the numbers game.

As a result, rumors immediately spread in the army, saying that Marshal Night Tour was going to be dismissed and investigated, and he might even be imprisoned. And since Marshal Night Tour is going to be dismissed, there will inevitably be a candidate to replace him. In the following rumors, various candidates who may take over the position of Marshal Yeyou have surfaced: Gan Sheng, Zhang Pu, and Lu Lian, all of whom have noses and eyes.

Day and night tours are not personal names or nicknames, but the highest positions in the Yin Army. For example, Zuoqiu Maoming, the lord of Zuoqiu City, once served as a marshal of the day tour, and was dismissed many years ago because of the disadvantage of the ghost army. Judging from this, I'm afraid that this marshal of the night tour is also more auspicious!

But surprisingly, in the end, the king of Yama was merciful and retained the position of marshal of the night tour, but he was severely reprimanded and fined for one year. In addition, the king of Yama also instructed the Yin Army, the Punishment Division, and the Chacha Division to unite to interrogate the prisoners of the ghost army, and sent a large number of spies to various parts of the underworld to find out the location of the base camp of the ghost army.

It seems that the king of Yama has made up his mind this time, and he must wipe out the ghost army in one fell swoop and never suffer in the future!

It is said that the hundreds of captured ghost soldiers are quite hard-mouthed, and they don't know what kind of brainwashing the ghost commander has carried out on them, so they refuse to reveal half a sentence. When torture was ineffective, the Division of Punishment used all sorts of unheard-of torture against ghosts. Finally, a few ghost army captives couldn't help but torture and recruited. They confessed: The approximate location of the base camp of the ghost army is in the salt desert.

It is said that it took several years for the ghost marshal to lead the ghost army to build a huge ghost city in the salt desert as his base camp. In this ghost town, there are only people, no ghosts. The total number of ghost troops in the city is 20,000, and the number of ghost people who do not have combat effectiveness is 30,000, and the number of ghosts in the entire ghost city has reached 50,000, which is equivalent to the strength of a medium-sized yin city.

The main task of the ghost people in the city is to collect Yin Yuan. With these Yin Yuan, the ghost marshal was able to privately trade the materials needed to come to the ghost city from all over the Yin City through various methods. Coupled with the large amount of wealth looted and looted from all over the world, the ghost marshal is beginning to build a powerful ghost army!

The reason why the strength of the ghost army was far inferior to that of the Yin army before was because the weaponry, training level, tactical discipline, and individual strength of the ghost soldiers were completely at a disadvantage. Among them, weapons, armor and other armaments are the most urgently needed by the ghost army, and at the same time, there is a shortage of talents to lead troops in training and command operations.

But the biggest advantage of the ghost army is the number. You know, in the underworld, there are many more ghosts than living people. The difficulty of recruiting soldiers in the Yin Army is definitely far greater than that of the Ghost Army, and once there are casualties, replenishing soldiers is the biggest problem faced by the underworld!

Therefore, if the ghost commander is allowed to toss like this, over time, I am afraid that the strength of the ghost army may eventually overwhelm the Yin army. When the time comes, the dominance of the underworld in the underworld will not be guaranteed!

This information made the high-level leaders in the Yama Hall feel like pins and needles. In the end, King Yama decided on two things: first, at all costs, the ghost city must be completely eradicated from the underworld before the climate can form; Second, immediately recruit troops from all over the Yin City again to expand the number of soldiers of the Yin Army.

Among them, the first thing means that the Yin army has to go on an expedition again, and it is likely that the whole army will attack!

This expedition was mainly based on the Japanese army, supplemented by two armies of the night army, with a total of about 7,000 men, but it was claimed to be 10,000 to the outside world. Moreover, the rare fact that the two Yin Marshals of the day tour and the night tour led the team at the same time is enough to show the eagerness of the king of Yama to hope that he can complete the battle.

As for the safety of the underworld, in addition to the remaining 2,000 old, weak, sick and disabled Yin troops, some Yin cha were temporarily recruited to serve as defenders. The Ghost Gate Pass is the only entrance and exit of the underworld, and if you want to attack the underworld, you must first capture the Ghost Gate Pass. But with the strong defense of the Ghost Gate, even if the ghost army comes to attack, it may not be able to succeed.

Besides, don't forget, King Yama is a Yin cultivator who has already reached the seventh peak, not to mention that the four major judges, the bull head and horse face, black and white impermanence, etc., have already reached the sixth level of cultivation. With such a powerful high-level combat power, it is not something that a ghost marshal at the level of a mere ghost king can deal with!

The two armies that accompanied the team in the night tour army were the left army and the rear army, which were still fully organized, and the Yin generals who led the team were Zhang Pu and Gan Sheng.

Marshal Night Tour kept his position, and I am afraid that these two people were the most disappointed in this. But since he failed to fulfill his wish, he still had to stay honestly under the night tour and obey his orders, and he couldn't show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face.

As for me, what makes me happiest is that Liu Han is also in the ranks of this expedition. Moreover, she served as a herald for the Japanese Rangers, and every time she ran past me on a Cerberus, I deliberately grimaced at her, but I ignored her every time.

But when it was time for the whole army to camp and stay overnight, Liu Han was bolder than me and sneaked into my camp tent to tease me. Naturally, I refused to admit it, and the two of them were upside down in the camp tent, messing around. In addition to not being able to make a sound, this feeling of cheating in the army is very exciting and unstoppable.

After experiencing the last fierce battle with the ghost army, this time to go to the ghost army base camp, I am afraid it will be another fierce battle. When your life is at stake, all other worries can be put aside for a while. It's a rare opportunity to indulge yourself, so why not enjoy it first?
