Chapter 647: The Battle of the Wilderness
"What is the essence of bluntness? It is a essence that is difficult to comprehend when you hear it!" Lan Qian instantly had a headache.
At this time, Lan Qian heard a lot of noisy calls, which were his subordinates, who were constantly shouting: "General! General......
The previous owner of his body was named Cang Shu, a general who was framed by his own lieutenant in the war against the tyranny of the desolate lord, resulting in a great defeat for his own side, and he even vomited blood to death.
Lan Qian opened his eyes and saw faces that were dusty but excited, and some even shed tears.
"A dignified seven-foot man, crying like this, give it to me!" Lan Qian pretended to be angry. If it were him, he wouldn't be like this, but this is the temper of the owner of this body, and he doesn't show emotion easily.
"Yes, take care, General!" the group retreated, crying and laughing.
Everyone left, leaving Lan Qian alone in the house to ponder. After digesting Cangshu's memories, Lan Qian knew that this was a strange world, or a cursed country.
This country is called Yanghuang, which was originally a country that is enterprising, advocating reform, and full of vitality, but God feels that the people of Yanghuang are too deviant, and even disobey discipline, which is against the way of heaven, so he sends down punishment, so that the people of Yanghuang are miserable and forced to surrender.
Not only that, but God also changed the rules of the road of the wilderness, so that any sharp weapon produced by the wilderness will automatically dull, that is, the so-called terrible curse of "all gold must be blunt". In addition, the heavens also supported the puppet emperor, that is, the lord of the wilderness, and let this lord rule the wilderness for them.
In this way, the threat of famine is greatly reduced. Just imagine, the soldiers of the wilderness use blunt weapons, while the puppet army in the hands of the lord of the wilderness uses all divine weapons, how can this be defeated?
For generals or commanders, it doesn't matter what weapons they use, but for the army, the impact is huge. Without swords, guns and arrows, there is no way to fight. Although blunt weapons can also cause damage, they are obviously not as efficient as sharp weapons, which shows how vicious this punishment and curse of God is.
The people of the wilderness were not convinced, so they rose up to resist, but they were ruthlessly suppressed by the lord of the wasteland. At this time, two immortals stood up, their strength was outstanding, and they responded to every call, creating Pingshan Hall, with the highest purpose of overthrowing the desolate lord and stepping on the heavens, and continued to impact the puppet army of the desolate lord. Shangcang was furious and directly sent the gods to kill the two immortals, so that Pingshan Hall was almost destroyed.
After nearly a hundred years of silence, Hirayamado was reborn in blood, and under the leadership of a British lord named Bo Cong, it once again launched an attack on the desolate lord.
Cang Shu is a general under Bo Cong and is the commander of one of the armies of the Northern Expedition. At first, they conquered everything, captured three cities in a row, and the momentum was like a rainbow. But who would have thought that Hong Yuan, the deputy general in their army, was a traitor, and he actually stood still in a key battle later, resulting in a great defeat for Cangshu, with countless casualties. Therefore, Cang Shu was angry and angry, and he directly whimpered.
"General Cang is loyal and loyal to the country and the people, and he is really noble, and I can't fall into his prestige. Lan Qian thought in his heart.
There are gods and immortals in this world, but there are very few now, especially after two catastrophes, there are few immortals in the entire wilderness, and more ordinary people. The current master of Pingshan Hall, Bo Cong, is just a war king, and he is still one step away from the immortals. And Cang Shu is a general, second only to the king of war. Below the generals are the captains, then the soldiers, and finally the ordinary soldiers.
Gods and immortals can fly in the air, and they are called gods or immortals, and no one below the gods can fly, even if they are as strong as the king of war. However, although the War King cannot fly, he can hit objects in the air, and can attack from a distance without the help of any external force. Warlords can also attack from the air, but the range is very limited, only one to two meters away from their bodies. Captains can't attack from the air, but they can release their true elements to form fists, palm power, sword gangs, sword gangs, etc., which are extremely powerful. Warriors can't release the true yuan, but they have the true yuan, and their strength is more than several times that of ordinary soldiers, and it is possible to fight ten enemies with one.
......
After a day's rest, Lan Qian led the remnants of the defeated army to go back to confess the guilt, but Bo Cong had already investigated the matter clearly, did not condemn Lan Qian, and only gave Lan Qian a warning that he would not notice the use of people, and let Lan Qian go back to regroup and prepare for the war with all his might.
Cang Shu is eight years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, saying that he is young, in fact, he has been a veteran of the battlefield for more than ten years; if he is not young, in fact, he is not old, he has not yet reached the age of confusion, he is a young talent, and he is also a pillar of the middle beam. With Cangshu's experience, Lan Qian is very handy in preparing the army, and in his spare time, he mainly delves into two things, one is the true yuan, and the other is the blunt essence.
Compared to spiritual power, the true yuan gives people a relatively strong feeling, so it is difficult to cultivate, but once it is cultivated, the power is extremely huge. Although the spiritual power martial arts cannot be used directly, it is still possible to learn from it, which is also the reason why Lan Qian studied the true yuan.
As for the blunt essence, this was a test that Lan Qian had to accept, so he needed to study it with all his might. However, because there was a curse like "all gold must be blunt" involved in the rules of the Great Dao, Lan Qian's research was not very smooth.
Three months later, in August of the first year of Longxing. The master of Pingshan Hall, Bo Cong, and the military advisor Zhang Jun planned the Northern Expedition again, and Lan Qian took the initiative to invite Ying to fight. This time they didn't succeed, but it couldn't be regarded as a failure, at least Lan Qian succeeded in beheading the traitor Hong Yuan. However, their losses are not small, after all, blunt weapons have a natural disadvantage to sharp weapons. They tried to collect the enemy's weapons, but found that once they got their hands on them, they quickly turned them into blunt weapons.
In October of the first year of Longxing, the desolate lord ordered an attack on Pingshantang, and Lan Qian guarded Lingbi and started a big battle with the puppet army. In this battle, Lan Qian burst out of the strength of the war king and killed Lie Zhining, the left deputy marshal of the puppet army, in one fell swoop, so that the puppet army returned defeated.
In March of the second year of Longxing, Lan Qian finally comprehended the essence of obtuseness, and it took 10 months before and after, which was very long, and this was still a way for him to use some tricks, otherwise it might take even longer.
In the process of comprehending the essence of obtuseness, Lan Qian found that when he cast the essence of benefit, he would trigger the rules of the Great Dao of the Desolation, and this rule of the Great Dao would turn the benefits into bluntness. By repeating this process and studying the whole change and mystery, Lan Qian finally grasped the essence of obtuseness.
"10 months, is this the maximum period, or is it a year?" Lan Qian thought. However, his top priority is to fight quickly and pass the test.
How to apply the essence of bluntness? All Lan Qian could think of was to use it on the enemy, dulling the enemy's attacks and reducing the power. As for using it for himself, Lan Qian couldn't think of a good way to apply it for the time being.
Five days later, Lan Qian happened to encounter a skirmish. He only had an advance team of 1,000 people in his hands, while the other party had more than 2,000 people, more than twice as many as Lan Qian's side. Because of the weapons, the puppet army always has the advantage when the number is equal. At this time, the puppet army still has an advantage in numbers, so it is obvious which situation is better or worse. However, Lan Qian and the others could not retreat directly, because the other party was outflanked from the back.
"Kill!" Lan Qian rushed forward first. But instead of killing the enemy, he wandered through the puppet army, and it was so fast that the soldiers were completely unable to intercept him.
At first, the puppet generals didn't understand what Lan Qian was doing, but the soldiers under them soon realized that something was wrong, and they found that the sword in their hands that had been invincible had actually become dull, and they couldn't cut people. And because Lan Qian's side can only use blunt weapons, he has long used swords, but heavy weapons such as sticks, hammers, and sticks, and his attack power is still very fierce.
The sudden change made the puppet army panic instantly. On the other hand, Lan Qian's morale was greatly boosted, and he began to suppress more people with fewer people.
"Bastard!" the puppet army general was greatly annoyed, and he began to move out to intercept Lan Qian.
Lan Qian obviously didn't want to be stopped by him, he desperately shifted until he had disposed of the opponent's weapons before starting a big battle with the puppet army generals.
In the great battle, Lan Qian found that the blunt essence was very effective, it was like adding a "magic resistance" to himself, it could weaken all the sharp attacks from the opponent, and it was very resistant.
In this battle, Lan Qian's side won. His defensive capabilities made the opponent helpless, and the morale of the opposing soldiers was low, and the morale of the army was weakened, which also wiped out their superiority in strength, and finally the army was defeated.
After this battle, Lan Qian successfully passed the 8th test of essence. For these many battles and wars in the wilderness, he called it the seventy-second battle after his crossing - the battle of the wilderness!
A familiar picture appeared, Lan Qian's memory was connected with the deity, and a large amount of information was integrated into the deity's mind. On the light egg, the blunt runes representing the essence of blunt began to dissipate, turning into stars and dots, integrating into Lan Qian's body, and the Yin Yang Lotus Pond and the Five Elements Picture Scroll were still running, providing assistance for Lan Qian's transformation. "This time, it's unknown whether we can meet again!" Lan Qian, who had incarnated Cangshu, waved goodbye to the deity.
As a general, he still has a lot of battles to fight in the future, and it is still unknown whether he will survive or not. Another point is that it is very difficult to become an immortal and a god in this world, maybe Lan Qian's final outcome here may be the final death of old age. Of course, Lan Qian could also choose to return to his hometown and concentrate on his cultivation, but he didn't want to do this, because he felt sorry for General Cang Shu like this, and he wanted to inherit General Cang Shu's heart and will and carry out this cause of resistance to the end! During Lan Qian's march back to the camp, the picture in the sky slowly dissipated.
The dream continued, and Lan Qian himself "woke up" again after a period of drowsiness. When he woke up, his mind was blank as always. It was only after a short reminiscence that he remembered the events of the previous era, those bizarre and real dreams. "It's the 9th test, and the content of this test is completely unknown!" Lan Qian was a little curious and a little expectant.
