The Fire Ghost King's sneaky actions gave Feng Qingshi's subordinates who stayed in Central China a big headache.

Because during this period of time, the Fire Ghost King took advantage of Feng Qingshi to start a war with the capital, and he had repeatedly harassed Central China.

And the Fire Ghost King, although his skill is only the peak of the Lan Yuan level, his actual combat power is extremely terrifying.

There are also Lan Yuan-level peak masters left behind in Central China, but every time they are sent out to pursue the Fire Ghost King, they will be killed by the Fire Ghost King, and even the Fire Ghost King alone can kill two Lan Yuan-level peak powerhouses alone.

Every time he harassed the rich lands of Central China, he would flee to the mountains of South China with people and looted supplies, hiding in the mountains and not showing up for several days.

When the wind calms down, they come out to commit trouble again.

Every time Huazhong gathered forces to rush to the scene of the incident, the Fire Ghost King had already fled.

And if the local forces directly counterattack, they can't defeat the Fire Demon King.

Therefore, the people in charge of Central China have repeatedly asked people in South China for explanations.

But the old immortals and Baili Chonglou in South China were not in their hometowns, but they were fighting on the front line, and not only that, but they also took all the elite forces away.

For a time, the Fire Ghost King and his group were extremely rampant, and no one could cure him.

Such a scene can't help but recall the days when the five thieves in South China were still alive.

Thieves, like loaches, are smooth and slippery, making it impossible to start.

This is not to say how strong the Fire Ghost King is, if the strong man in Central China is still there, Tong Rui can pick all the Fire Ghost King and his nearly 1,000 people with one shot.

Even if those strong people are not there, as long as they give the remaining defenders in Central China half an hour to gather strength, the assembled group of people can definitely kill the Fire Ghost King.

But the point is, the Fire Demon King never stays in one place for more than three minutes, and doesn't give you time to gather your men at all.

And the place where he haunts is so unpredictable that there is no pattern at all, so that the plan to set up an ambush in advance cannot be successfully implemented.

When the Fire Ghost King succeeded, he immediately fled to the South China Mountains, and the 100,000 Mountains in South China made it even more impossible to catch his traces.

Of course, this does not have much impact on Feng Qingshi.

The Fire Ghost King seems to be very smart and knows that he can't touch the bottom line of the sealed bluestone, so he only grabs things and doesn't kill people.

In Feng Qingshi's eyes, the Fire Ghost King is no different from the clown who jumps the beam, as long as the damage is not big, Feng Qingshi will not care about him, now is a tense period, and it is impossible for Feng Qingshi to send someone back.

As a result, the Fire Ghost King actually spent several months freely, how happy.

He feels that his life now is happier than when he was king in Liyang City, at least, he has the motivation and pursuit of life.

On the front line, hundreds of thousands of people need armaments and materials, and the amount of them every day is very large.

Under such a tug-of-war, the test is the material and financial resources of the two sides.

Especially those powerhouses above the Blue Yuan level, each of them has an astonishing amount of food.

Qin Zheng was used to living a hard life before, but it was okay, at least he knew moderation.

But other strong people are different, such as Li Zhengyuan, although this person is quite polite, and he is also very elegant and elegant when eating, but under his unhurried chopsticks, between his mouth opening and closing, he eats at a very uniform speed, and the food is also reduced little by little.

It seemed slow, but when he took an hour and a meal, he ate at least the standard amount of twenty ordinary adult men.

And those strong people who gobble up eat are even more terrifying.

Ao Guang, the commander of the 10,000-strong army in Zhongzhou, even if he doesn't do anything for a day, he can at least eat a whole cow, and in case of a battle, if he moves a few times, the amount of food will be doubled.

The higher the realm, the greater the amount of food, unless you know moderation.

For example, Qin Zheng and Feng Qingshi were originally not interested in enjoyment, so they could control their own meals.

There are thousands of Chinese delicacies, if you have money to buy them, you have a stomach to eat, and you don't get fat, those strong people will naturally not deliberately control them, in fact, most people stand on this position and will not deliberately control their meals.

After all, as long as you don't hold yourself up, and you have a very appetizing situation, eating is originally a pleasure.

Time passed minute by minute, day after day.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed in a hurry.

In the course of a month, there were only some small-scale battles between the two sides, with mutual losses and gains.

Some of the former elite warriors broke through the bottleneck in the trial of blood and fire and reached a higher realm, followed by a promotion and salary increase.

The former veterans have become elites one by one, and the former recruits are slowly fading away from immaturity and becoming reliable veterans.

The rear of the two armies has been absorbing a steady stream of fresh blood, the capital is recruiting troops on a large scale, and the conditions given by the four major families are scary.

A large number of hot-blooded men enthusiastically participated in the recruit training camp, and after half a month of training, they took up arms and rushed to the battlefield.

When teaching these recruits, the four major families were not stingy, and they all took out the exercises in the family, as the saying goes, what comes from a famous family, even if it is garbage from a famous family, is a good thing when it is put outside.

After seven or eight days of training in the boot camp, two or three random people would come out and go to those private boxing entertainment clubs to kick the gym, almost one kick at a time.

The people taught by the four major families, among ordinary people, are all good hands.

With the addition of new recruits, since there have been no major battles recently, the number of troops has not decreased, but has increased a lot.

Of course, Feng Qingshi, which has a larger territory, has far more new troops than the capital.

Now, there are only two people who really decide the course of the war.

One is Feng Qingshi, he is about to sit still, and even a few days ago, he personally took action and showed a monstrous power in the combined army formation, however, what he saw was the fearless eyes of those soldiers.

Feng Qingshi waited for the combined army to break and flee under pressure, and waited for the combined army to surrender without a fight, but he didn't wait after all.

And the other is Xia He, he is also waiting, waiting for time to pass minute by minute, waiting for the Du family of the ancient martial arts world to declare war on Feng Qingshi again.

However, Xia He clearly knew that Feng Qingshi could not wait forever, and the reason why Feng Qingshi did not launch a general attack before was because he didn't want to lose too much, but this did not mean that Feng Qingshi had given up the war.

When Feng Qingshi couldn't endure the tenacity of the combined army, when Feng Qingshi was about to usher in the Du family's big counterattack, he would definitely take the last action.

And then it will be the time when the combined forces will be truly tested.

On December 28, there was heavy snow in the sky, and New Year's Day was approaching.

Most of the world is in the midst of festivities as the New Year approaches, but only in the western part of the capital is the atmosphere gradually getting heavier.

Xia He, Qin Zheng and the others all had a hunch that the day when Feng Qingshi would take large-scale action was not far away.
