The sky is full of nightlight, starlight, moonlight is bright, and beyond the Chaoshan mountain range, the visibility is extremely high.

The Chaoshan Mountain Range in the north of Blackwater City, the east extends to Lincheng Dayadu, and the west is several miles long, and the shore in front of the mountain is the most prosperous section of the Baili Lotus Pond of Wanxing Lake. Heading north, the mountains stretch for hundreds of meters. Although the peaks in the mountain range are not very high, they are lined up one after another, and the peaks between them are very undulating, forming a natural barrier in the north of the two cities of Blackwater City and Big Yadu. In this way, the city wall of the north city is extremely short, and there are not many soldiers stationed at the north gate of the north side of the lotus pond. On the Chaoshan mountain range on the north side, there are many soldiers stationed near the low mountains all year round.

Between the northern part of Blackwater City and the Underworld Country, there was an empty yellow meadow, several miles long, and the yellow grass and weeds were luxuriant, and the height was half a person's height. If it weren't for the Chaoshan Mountain Range blocking the outside, it would be very easy for the Underworld to sneak attack with the help of the grass.

However, an hour ago, at the hour of the unitary hour, the soldiers stationed on the outermost and highest mountain of the Chaoshan Mountain Range suddenly found that in the open space in front of the Yellow Grass and this mountain, there were suddenly a few more soldiers dressed in the military uniforms of the Underworld at some point. The soldiers did not look at them, but kept pacing at the foot of the mountain. They immediately gathered together to observe, and found a scene that surprised and shocked each of them - under the cover of night, the yellow grass was already full of soldiers from the Underworld at some point, and it was so dense that it occupied half of the grassland!

No one knows how these people could suddenly appear in the grass without being noticed at all. They spent the afternoon in the mountains scouting the movement of the Yellow Meadows, and they didn't notice that anyone had sneaked here. And there were so many people, all of them appeared in front of them at once. It was as if the grass was covered with countless thunderstorms, so that none of them dared to act rashly. Although the protection of Blackwater City in the Chaoshan Mountains is very good, but... Someone immediately spread the news to the north city gate, and within an hour, several messengers quickly whipped up and informed the city gates and families everywhere.

The army of the Underworld suddenly appeared in the grass outside the city gate, and its number was slowly increasing. This kind of perverse thing made He Zhe, who had just finished the banquet, unable to sit still. He asked the old groom to send Mo Ying, who was full of happiness, back to Hefu, without telling her what had happened, and hurriedly got into the carriage of Gaofu outside Qiao's mansion and headed to the north city gate.

Accompanying him was the third son of the head of the Gao family, Gao Wulie. When he was young, he was a distant relative of the Heishui Gao family and a generalissimo of the Chinese army, Gao Qingshi, and participated in several Zhenxi wars and rebellion suppression. Now he is in Blackwater City as the judge of the Yamen of the North City. The two of them were the first to arrive inside the North City Tower and quickly understood the situation. He Zhe said in a deep voice, "Make use of all the horses, and let all the families in Blackwater City send me all those who know martial arts! Especially Hu Mansion, bring as many people as you can bring in the military camp in Nancheng! ”

The two generals standing in front of them immediately clenched their fists and hurriedly ran out of the door.

"Lord Gao, after the reinforcements from Nancheng arrive, listen to the orders of this official, you go out and light the beacon fire in the Luofeng Valley, and all the four beacon towers will be lit, so that Lincheng can see that they are coming to support!"

Gao Wulie found a battle armor on the side, quickly put it on, and clenched his fists to lead the order, "The last general understands!"

At this time, a frightened soldier hurriedly ran outside the door, and as soon as he entered the main general's camp, he fell to the ground with his buttocks, Gao Wulie helped him up, and the soldier reported to He Zhe in a panic, "Lord of the city... The general of the country of Hades said that he would see you in a quarter of an hour and rush to the outer mountains to talk to them... Otherwise, a whole two thousand people would have called directly......"

He Zhe slammed up from the main seat, Gao Wulie knelt down on one knee, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I can protect your safety!"

He Zhe waved his hand and said, "Master Gao, you stay here." After Hu Fu and the others come here, if I don't come back, you can directly order them to lead the troops to the Chaoshan Mountain Range behind! Then, light the beacon fire!"

With that, he followed the soldier quickly down the tower, towards the mountains that were still a few hundred meters away.

Nancheng, Hu Fu.

"Hurry up!"

At night, a large number of military camps in the south city gate were lit with beacon fires all around, illuminating the surrounding area transparently. Since this place is the location of the most important military camp in Blackwater, there are no civilians living around. There is only the magnificent Hu Mansion and the dense military camp group in front. There are so many military camps, spanning the length of four miles from Hufu to the front of the South City Gate. It also adds up to more than a thousand manpower. The general of the Nancheng military camp is Hu Shengjun, the eldest son of the head of the Hu family, who has fought in the northern army of Qinshan State, and is now in charge of the most important military horses in Heishui City, Nancheng, and also enjoys a lot of money in the imperial court. The rest of the generals were mostly military nobles from different families, constituting the most important self-defense army of the Qinshan Kingdom. And there is also an invincible Guanbei army in the north, led by Xiahou Lin, the general of the north who is as famous as General Pei Baolong, reaching the scale of more than 20,000 people, stationed in the vast military area in the northeast of Lincheng Dayadu.

The Kanbei Army sits in the central city of the northern border, and when they learn of this happening tonight, they tend to send reinforcements immediately. Moreover, the Kanbei army is extremely fast, and the support efficiency and speed are extremely high. For the generals of Blackwater City, no matter how fierce the Underworld Kingdom was this time, as long as the Guanbei Army, which had been dragged to the Great Bud Capital, realized that someone had invaded on a large scale, they would win.

"General Hu, the brothers from the first to the fifth battalion have all assembled, and the horses are ready, ready to go to Beicheng at any time!"

"General, the ten military camps under the command of Xia can also be dispatched! With the tall man's soldiers and horses, there are already nearly two hundred soldiers who can go!"

Standing on the periphery of the barracks, Hu Shengjun, the general who had just commanded the preparation of his soldiers, surrounded by two men in military uniforms, an old man and a young man. He nodded, pondered, and said to the veteran, "Two hundred men plus horses, it will be slow to cross the streets." Lao Ji, you take your men first and go to Beicheng to support!"

The veteran surnamed Ji patted the shoulder of the puzzled young man beside him, and after receiving the order in a deep voice, he immediately ran to the rear to greet the soldiers. The young man stepped forward and saluted, "General, I foolishly think that General Ji is old and shouldn't be the first to take the lead......

Hu Shengjun looked into his eyes and said, "Provincial, you got an official position after the conference examination, and you didn't have much time to enter the barracks, so you got along well with everyone." You are reliable and loved by your brothers. General Ben said this, you should know what I mean. After a while, someone in front of me will report back the latest battle situation, and I will arrange for you and your brothers to go to support!"

The young general is the son of the Gao family. He did very well in the conference exam, but he didn't expect to be a hot-blooded young man who loves to practice martial arts. Since he was a child, in addition to studying Confucian scholarship, he preferred to study military books and politics. He longs to be able to one day make immortal contributions to the Gao family, Heishui City, and Qinshan Kingdom, and become a general admired by thousands of people, just like Gao Qingshi, the marshal of the three armies. In the end, he also got his wish and was able to enter the position of a captain, and for him the official position was not low, second only to the position of centurion in the army. He is the nominal boss of the soldiers in the five barracks, capable of commanding more than fifty soldiers. After Gao Xingshen came here, although it was only more than two months, he quickly integrated into military life and mingled with many soldiers from civilian backgrounds. The senior generals in the army also praised him.

Hu Shengjun can see that such a young man will have great achievements in the future. Years of experience in the army made him smell something unusual in the air tonight, the army of the Underworld Kingdom mysteriously gathered around the Chaoshan Mountain Range, but he was not in a hurry to start until now. He couldn't help but think of the opening battle of the whole war, the surprise attack that took place in Xingyang City more than two months ago, and the number of dead on both sides was already in the thousands. General Hu knew that what he had to experience tonight would not be much better than what General Xing Lun had experienced before.

"General Hu, you don't have to be ...... like this," how could Gao Shengshen, who was young and vigorous and vigorous, let the veteran take the lead instead of him? He didn't need General Hu to take such care of himself!

"Stand down, don't disturb military discipline, this is an order!" Hu Shengjun turned his head and glared at him fiercely, not caring about his identity as the son of the Gao family. As the great general here, his decision is unquestionable, and he must protect such a child who will achieve unlimited achievements in the future, and will not die today.

Gao Xing's face was flushed, and he glanced at General Ji, who had already mounted his horse behind him and drove towards Beicheng with more than 100 people. Indignantly, he strode towards the camp.

One after another, the captains and captains came to General Hu's side to report. Then everyone rode their horses and drove towards the northern city one by one. Only Gao and the soldiers of the five military camps under his command watched as their brothers left, but they had not yet received orders from the general.

——

The person sent by the Underworld to the outermost foot of the Chaoshan Mountain Range and clamored to see the city lord He Zhe was the overseer of their trip. The man covered his face with a black veil and listened to him introduce his name, which was Ma Exiankang. After He Zhe came to the outer mountains, a military advisor beside him explained to him that Ma E was a relatively famous noble surname in the country of Mingze, and it was mostly distributed at the junction of the two countries. Several soldiers carried torches beside him and surrounded him to the top of the highest outer mountain. A number of giant crossbows have been erected on top of the mountain. The whole mountain was lit with fire, and below it was full of archers who had drawn their bows. All the warriors of the northern city have come to the foot of the mountain, plus reinforcements and horses from several other city gates have come one after another, and the foot of the mountain is surrounded by water.

Torches scattered all over the place also illuminated the situation on the other side very clearly. Two thousand people, and now there are at least two thousand soldiers of the Underworld Nation in green armor, standing in the middle of the yellow grass, revealing half of their bodies. The number of people in the black pressure was at least several times that of the soldiers they surrounded at the foot of the mountain. He Zhe set off a huge wave in his heart, even though he kept telling himself that he couldn't panic, after seeing the two thousand troops of the Stygian Kingdom, he couldn't help but panic.

Although all the soldiers who could be sent by Blackwater City were rushing to help, he knew very well that all the soldiers who could fight together were still a few hundred fewer than the other party. The faces of each soldier on the other side were fearless, full of energy, and high morale. The situation is already very bad.

This, this is so counterintuitive. In history, every time the Underworld wanted to enter Blackwater City, no matter what, it would be discovered when sending a large army to the Yellow Meadow, which was several miles long. Blackwater will immediately launch a counterattack and ask for help from the Lincheng and Guanbei armies. As long as they could delay the time and prevent them from approaching the Chaoshan Mountain Range, the Underworld would never succeed. However... How could it be that so many soldiers suddenly appeared in the grass and lurked in the grass without anyone noticing. Unless... Taoism!

He Zhe couldn't help but gasp when he thought of this layer. The sound of the soldiers gathering below and the nobles sent by the major families coming to the top of the mountain to support echoed in his ears. If there is a master who uses Dao magic to help them infiltrate... I can only ask Master Mori Dao for help. However, he completely disappeared during this period of time, and even He Zhe, who had a close friendship with him, was nowhere to be found. In other words, if that man was able to help their two thousand people sneak around the mountains silently, couldn't they send them to the middle of the mountains again!

"Lord Castle, there is no need to resist. No matter how many of you are, it's only half of us at most. All of this is known below. After the start of the war, how many people and horses from various cities in the north went to support Xingyang City, I am afraid that even the Guanbei Army will not have time to pay attention to you at this time. You only have a thousand at most. So, there's no need to resist uselessly. ”

"Abandon the city and flee, and take more people with you. Maybe in a few days, when the Guanbei Army wants to fight back, you can still come in handy. Ma Exiankang's voice sounded before the two armies faced each other, making He Zhe feel extremely upset.

"Lord of the City, in the next season of the Mansion Ji Bing Rin..."

"Lord of the city, save yourself in the lower high mansion!"

"Lord of the city, I am the steward of the palace below, and I will bring the palace guards to support..."

"Lord of the City, Qiao Xuebin in Xia Qiao Mansion..."

More and more children of the family rushed in at this time. Most of them brought their own family's guards, and although they were not many in number, they could barely help. In the face of the righteousness of life and death in Blackwater City, every family seems to be so united. Even Qiao Xuebin, who had never been willing to disclose his identity as a monk, took the initiative to ask for help in front of everyone in Qiaofu, and led dozens of Qiaofu guards and the prince's personal guards to come to support.

Hu Shengjun finally arrived with Gao Shengshen and his people. As a result, he found that the two sides had not yet fought, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

After reporting to the distraught lord of the city, they all retreated to the sides of the hill and watched the overseer talk endlessly. Qiao Xuebin in the crowd looked at the Ma E prison army, and suddenly found something strange... It made him feel that this guy, his identity was very weird.

After thinking of this, Ma Exiankang's voice of persuasion didn't seem to have the unique accent of the Underworld. A name flashed in Qiao Xuebin's heart, and he couldn't help but feel shocked. Qiao Xuebin nervously stretched out his left hand and quietly made a trick.

A breeze blew against the black veil on the face of the Ma E Prison Army. No one noticed, and Ma E only felt a chill around him. But although this breeze is soft, the strength contained in it is very large, full of the true qi that Qiao Xuebin Qiding built the foundation into in an instant.

"Don't bother talking! it seems that there must be a cultivator who will help you and others to lurk here. This person must not care about his own strength to help you and others to commit such a disgraceful aggression. This kind of person, this official thinks that he is despised, and he is not worthy of the word monk!"

As soon as Qiao Xuebin finished the formula, he heard He Zhe's voice sound. He was a little surprised. In fact, for the people of Blackwater City, the concept of cultivators is still very vague. There was only one Sen Dao Master who was a real cultivator in their cognition. And He Zhe seemed to have some understanding of the number of cultivation qi and the like, which made Qiao Xuebin a little impressed. It turns out that not only He Yue and Zheng Ergou, but He Zhe seems to be a person on this road.

Ma E Xiankang immediately felt that something was wrong, and a cool breeze blew on his face. The black veil he had specially tied to the helmet above his head was raised, revealing his face in the bright and dazzling light of the fire in front and back, left and right.

He Zhe, who was on the top of the mountain, suddenly felt his legs go limp. Then, a great anger overwhelmed his sanity.

"Rebel son! Rebel son!"

The true face of Ma E's prison army is the traitor He Kang, who fled to the country of Hades some time ago. It can also be said that if He Kang hadn't reported the information to the border of the Underworld at the beginning, the Underworld would not have wanted to preemptively launch a surprise attack on Xingyang City. He is the fuse of the whole war, no matter what, the name of Hekang will be nailed to the pillar of shame of Qinshan Country for eternity, and become a sinner for the ages in the hearts of every people of Qinshan Country!

No one knew how his voice had become completely different from before. However, when he saw the face in the night, Ho Zhe immediately recognized him. This traitorous rebel who brought great annoyance to the Dutch government.

Up and down the mountain, inside and outside the foot of the mountain, the nearly 1,000 soldiers who had gathered heard the angry shouts of He Zhe on the top of the mountain like thunder, and then saw the appearance of the prison army covering his face again in a panic, and every soldier set off a huge wave of anger in his heart.

In times of war, it is often the traitor who makes people angry and hated more than foreign enemies.

He Zhe shouted, "Release the arrows, release the arrows for me, and capture the traitor He Kang alive!"

He Kang hurriedly retreated to the rear of the Yellow Grass Field, surrounded by several soldiers from the Underworld Country. I only heard him shout loudly in a voice that no longer belonged to him, "General Ma E, General Ma E!

A heavily armored warrior slowly stood up from the middle of the group of two thousand. This person is extremely tall, nearly ten feet tall, and he stands out like a flock among the soldiers of the Netherworld, and the whole person is like a mountain. He should be the general Ma E in Hekang's mouth.

He Zhe calmed down his raging anger. He stepped forward. Before the fierce battle began, the last words he said to the soldiers in front of him and behind him, on the mountain and down the mountain, were

———— "Everyone, even if they lurk in this place, we will have the Chaoshan Mountains as a barrier for us. There are family members and relatives of each of us in the city, and tonight, the fate of Blackwater City is in your hands!"

"Shoot the arrows!"

"Kill ————"

"Attack me !——————"
