Chapter 7: Chills in the spine

"It can be seen that you are a good person! But after all, this is a battlefield, and it is impossible for you and me to keep our hands, because victory or defeat is not only related to the life and death of you and me, but also involves the fate of the 100,000 brothers behind you!" Looking at the blue leopard that fell, Zhou Yunfeng said lightly.

Although the Lan family is a big family of the Congyun Empire, they have no grudges against the Zhou family, and the reason why they are fighting for life and death now is just for their own masters.

After eliminating the blue leopard, Zhou Yunfeng didn't dare to stay, but looked at the division commander Hongyu who had just arrived with the army, Hongyu's strength was not weak, he was the peak martial emperor of the fifth turn.

The reason why Zhou Yunfeng was so eager to kill the blue leopard was because Xiao Yan was not there, and no one could stop Hongyu.

In the central army, in addition to Hongyu, there are two martial emperor-level powerhouses, one of whom is Wu Ran, the commander of the ten thousand who was sent by the blue leopard to intercept and kill Long Hao, this person is a mid-turn martial emperor.

Although Wu Ran's strength is one line higher than Long Hao, the ** combat skills he cultivates are only low-level, so his combat effectiveness is not as good as Long Hao, and when the reinforcements of the Central Army came, he had been seriously injured by Long Hao.

Because the leader of the 5,000 horned cavalry was a commander of ten thousand people, who was also a strong man of the Martial Emperor, and it was also the early stage of the Second Martial Emperor, after this person came, Long Hao had to give up the black burning and contain this person.

Although Wu Ran has been hit hard, after all, he is a strong martial emperor, and not ordinary people can deal with it, so this task fell to Jun Tian.

After following Zhou Yunfeng, Jun Tian not only got the cultivation of the elixir, but also got the guidance of Zhou Yunfeng, and now he has reached the peak of the Nine Turns Martial King, and he is only one step away from the Martial Emperor.

Jun Tian himself is a thunder martial artist with strong attack power, and with the cooperation of a fifth-level peak Earth Fire Red Wolf King, although he is not as strong as Zhou Yunhu and the Red Emperor, it is not a problem to contain a seriously injured one-turn Martial Emperor.

Although he didn't get specific information, Zhou Yunfeng could already imagine that Lan Huapeng was marching towards Gukou City at this time, so he couldn't delay it for a moment.

Otherwise, Taniguchi City was really broken by Lan Huapeng, and Zhou Yunfeng really wanted to cry and couldn't find a place!

If you want to end the battle as soon as possible, then you must deal with the masters among them, and Zhou Yunfeng's first target is, of course, Hongyu, who rushed over.

Zhou Yunfeng did not hesitate, and went straight to Hongyu, although Hongyu's strength was good, but it was not enough in Zhou Yunfeng's eyes, and now was not the time to save face for him, so Zhou Yunfeng directly killed Hongyu with one move of 'Thunder Wanjun'.

Then there was the captain of the wildebeest cavalry who fought against Long Hao, and then there was Wu Ran

Long Hao and Jun Tian, who had their hands free, also began to continuously kill the generals and powerhouses in the Central Army

When Zhou Yunfeng cleaned up the generals in the Central Army, Lan Huapeng also led his troops to the outside of the valley.

In order to catch Taniguchi City by surprise, Lan Huapeng did not act with all the troops, but first led 15,000 horned horse cavalry and 30,000 light cavalry to Taniguchi City, hoping to capture Taniguchi City with lightning speed.

Lan Huapeng had 120,000 infantry under his command, and 30,000 were sent to Hare Ridge, except for the 30,000 people left by Lan Huapeng to guard the grain and grass, the rest of the 60,000 people were all on the way to Gukou City.

Lan Huapeng knew that the first step in attacking Gukou City was to occupy this valley, as long as this valley was in his hands, even if the Blue Leopard lost, as long as it was not the whole army annihilated, Zhou Yunfeng would not be able to help him even if he came back.

At that time, his army will be at the mouth of the valley, he can slowly attack the city in the valley, and the blue leopard can lead the army outside to attack and defend with him, Zhou Yunfeng only has that little force, and he can only stare dryly.

The valley outside Taniguchi Castle is several miles long, and this valley is the biggest difficulty in attacking Taniguchi Castle from the south gate, which is also a natural hazard for Taniguchi Castle.

Lan Hua Peng knew that there were not many soldiers and horses left in the city of Gukou, and the army that was originally stationed outside the valley had been withdrawn cleanly, but Lan Huapeng knew that as long as Zhou Yunfeng was not completely dizzy, then there must be ambushes in this valley.

"Go in a team of 1,000 light cavalry!" Lan Huapeng ordered Xiang Tong, the commander of the division beside him.

"Yes!" Xiang Tong said with a fist in his fist.

"Your team is in the valley!" Xiang Tong said, turning to a commander behind him.

"Yes!" the centurion clenched his fists.

"Come with me, brothers!" the commander said, turning his head and waving to the man behind him.

As soon as the men grabbed their horses' bellies, they walked towards the valley, and their speed slowly increased, and soon everyone entered the valley.

Looking at the back that disappeared in Taniguchi, Lan Huapeng waited outside with an indifferent expression, he was waiting for the news inside, this valley would determine whether he could successfully capture Taniguchi City.

Soon a minute passed, and everyone waiting outside breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, there were shouts and screams from inside.

"Kill!"

"Ahh

"There is indeed someone in ambush inside!" For such a change, Lan Huapeng had expected it, but now it has only been confirmed, so his expression has not changed much.

"Deputy Commander, what now?" Xiang Tong asked when he found that the shouting and screaming in the valley had stopped, and he regained his calm.

"It is expected that there will be ambushes in the valley! This valley is steep on both sides, and it is okay to hide a few people, it is impossible to hide the army, and it is still necessary to fight head-on!" Lan Huapeng said.

"It's just that the widest part of this valley is only fifteen meters, and the narrowest part is only six or seven meters, and the advantage of cavalry in it is greatly weakened, and the large number of people is no longer an advantage!" nodded to Tong.

"There is no way now! The infantry has not yet arrived, we must now take advantage of the fact that the battle on Hare Ridge is not over, and take Gukou City, even if we can't take Gukou City, we must control this valley in our hands and cut off Zhou Yunfeng's retreat!" Lan Huapeng said.

"Order, the wildebeest cavalry is guarding outside the valley mouth, and the light cavalry is all entering the valley!" Lan Huapeng ordered.

Now that the infantry has not yet arrived, Taniguchi must send someone to defend it, otherwise if Zhou Yunfeng suddenly jumps back, blocks him in the valley, and attacks Lan Huapeng on both sides with the city guards in Gukou City, then he will die, and he will die very aggrieved.

Besides, it was difficult for the cavalry to play to their advantage in the valley, even the wildebeest cavalry, so in order not to lose the extremely precious wildebeest cavalry, they had to stay outside the valley, which served as a defensive task.

This valley does not have many curves like other valleys, and it may be for this reason that it is considered to be left by the strong fight.

Although there are not many curves in the valley, it is not without curves, this valley is several miles long, but there is only one curve, and it is a big curve.

If you fly high into the air and look down, you will find that this valley is an arc, like a crescent moon.

Entering the valley this time, Lan Huapeng did not send anyone to explore the road in front again, but walked in front to open the way for the army by himself.

The reason why he sent someone in before was just to confirm whether there were ambushes among them, and since it had been confirmed, there was no need to send someone in to send him to death!

None of the people dismounted, but the pace was very slow, and they kept looking around, Lan Huapeng and Xiang Tong, the two Martial Emperor powerhouses, let go of their soul power regardless of the consumption and probed the surroundings.

When they went deeper than a mile, they found corpses in a place, some of which were still leaving blood, but except for the dead war horses, the other war horses were nowhere to be found.

"In such a short period of time, you can wipe out a thousand ** teams, and none of them escaped, there must be a lot of people in this valley, and there are many masters among them!" Xiang Tong said with an ugly face.

"There is a bloody killing team in the Fengyun Division, they are renamed from the original Fengyun Mercenary Group, and the people in them are all masters, and there are nearly a thousand wolf cavalry. In the Battle of Gravel Slope, the reason why Taniguchi Castle was defeated so quickly and so miserably was all because of this army. Although all the information about this army has already gone to Hare Ridge, there must still be some left in Taniguchi City, otherwise it is not impossible for those city guards and infantry left by the Fengyun Division in Taniguchi City to have this ability!" Lan Huapeng nodded.

"Roar!"

Just as the two were talking, a low beast roar sounded in the valley, which startled everyone and began to quickly become vigilant.

"It's on the stone wall above!" Lan Huapeng quickly found the source of the sound, looked up at the stone wall on the right in front of him, and saw a silver-white figure on a raised rock more than ten meters high and a half meters long slowly standing up.

"Silver Demon Wolf!Zhou Yunfeng's Demon Beast?!" Xiang Tong stared at him and said in a deep voice.

"It shouldn't be wrong!Zhou Yunfeng is really relieved, he is fighting outside, and he actually left such a powerful demonic beast here, no wonder they are so relieved!" Lan Huapeng said coldly.

"Deputy Commander, what is the strength of this demon wolf?" Xiang Tong and Hongyu's strength is about the same, and it is slightly inferior, he is the Martial Emperor in the late stage of the fifth turn, so he can't see through Xiao Yan's strength at all.

"The sixth-level high-level mid-stage peak, equivalent to the existence of the peak of the eighth-rank Martial Emperor, it is a demonic beast, I'm afraid that even the ordinary nine-rank Martial Emperor may not be its opponent!" Lan Huapeng said in a deep voice, and at the same time, his face also became gloomy, as if something bad had happened.

Lan Huapeng was the Ninth Transformation Peak Martial Emperor, so he was not afraid of Xiao Yan, but through Xiao Yan, he thought of Zhou Yunfeng.

Xiao Yan is Zhou Yunfeng's contract demonic beast, and Xiao Yan is a sixth-level high-level mid-stage peak demonic beast, so Zhou Yunfeng, as the master?

Thinking of this, Lan Huapeng only thought of two possibilities, one is that Zhou Yunfeng and Xiao Yan signed an equal contract, and Zhou Yunfeng's strength is not as good as his Warcraft, so the Blue Leopard will tie with Zhou Yunfeng;

If it is the first case, Lan Huapeng still has a good feeling in his heart, if it is the second case, then the situation is unpredictable, Zhou Yunfeng hides his strength and evacuates the strength of Gukou City, the plan must be not small.

Lan Huapeng knew very well that what could make Zhou Yunfeng plot right now was the 200,000 army under his command!

Thinking of this, Lan Huapeng felt a little chill in his spine
