Chapter 979: It depends on whether he is smart or stupid
Thick smoke billowed in the capital of Yunhe Kingdom, and the shouts and cries of killing were loud, and if you looked closely, there were soldiers and horses killing everywhere.
Lu Chuan, who was dressed in armor, was pacing inside the palace, his eyes calm, as if he couldn't hear the sound outside at all.
"Dashuai...... Now that Yunhe Country has been broken and all the country lords have been captured, what should I do next?" Wei Zhong, who was following him, asked respectfully.
"Wei Zhong, don't call me handsome in the future, if someone hears it, I'm afraid it will cause trouble. Lu Chuan glanced at Wei Zhong and said, "Although the generalissimo may not be able to account for these, but the other two little princes may not think so, it is better for us to be cautious in calling ourselves ministers." ”
"Yes. Wei Zhong responded.
"I have heard that the Generalissimo has returned, and has led his troops into the Kingdom of Shenmu, and the attack is swift, and many cities have been conquered. Lu Chuan said: "It seems that the destruction of the Divine Eye Kingdom is just around the corner, and we naturally cannot be idle, according to my guess, the Han Dynasty will definitely not sit idly by and watch the Divine Eye Kingdom be destroyed, and will inevitably take action." ”
Speaking of this, Lu Chuan said: "Rectify the soldiers and horses later, don't let the soldiers below scatter, this battle is not over yet, I will personally write a letter later, and ask to go to the border to keep an eye on the army of the Han Dynasty." ”
"Is the general worried that the Han Dynasty will send troops to attack us?" Wei Zhong said suddenly, and with some disbelief: "Now that the Han Dynasty itself is difficult to protect, there is still strength left to fight us?"
"The Han Dynasty is a behemoth, and this bit of power is still there. Lu Chuan smiled coldly and said: "At least they themselves must decide that they still have such spare strength, but whether it will work or not will be known after the fight." Go, you go and reorganize the army yourself, and if you don't obey, you will be killed. ”
"Yes. Wei Zhong nodded.
"As for the princes and ministers of Yunhe Kingdom...... Lu Chuan pondered for a moment and said: "Let's kill them together, keep them, after all, it will be troublesome, if it is handed over to the generalissimo, it will make the generalissimo embarrassed, let's just carry this infamy back." ”
...............
After many days of fighting, Xia Fan's soldiers and horses not decreased, but reached an astonishing 500,000 under the continuous expansion. The vast majority of them were recruited from the Divine Eyes Kingdom.
These soldiers may have been a little resistant at first, but after following Xia Fan all the way to attack the city and killing many of their original comrades, they gradually became desperately loyal to Xia Fan.
After all, with the blood debt they committed, even if they really ran back to the Divine Eye Country, they wouldn't get anything good, the lightest was to kill the head, and if it was more serious, it might even affect the family, even if it was to protect the family, the only thing they could do now was to follow Xia Fan around to fight and destroy the Divine Eye Kingdom as soon as possible.
In this way, without the Divine Eye Kingdom, naturally no one will pursue their crimes of defecting to the enemy and treason.
"The generalissimo is above, and there is urgent information for the lowly position, which was specially ordered by the little prince of my family to send it to the lowly position. "During the march, a man in black came to see Xia Fan.
Xia Fan just glanced at their clothes, and recognized that most of them were the people around Zhao, so he beckoned him to come closer, and at the same time took the urgent information he handed over.
The information is not written on paper, but recorded in the spirit jade, which is more secret and less likely to be leaked at the same time, because there is a ban on it, if you don't know how to unlock the ban, then forcibly breaking it will only trigger the ban to destroy the spirit jade.
"Shen Zhong broke through to the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, and personally led an army of millions to intercept the boss, please be careful with the boss. Xia Fan swept the spirit jade with his divine thoughts, and immediately heard Zhao Wei's words.
"Hehe, interesting!" Xia Fan casually crushed the spirit jade, but there was a hint of a smile on his mouth.
In fact, Xia Fan obviously had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, but he would rather go to the more remote Xuantian Cliff rather than directly attack the capital of the Divine Eye Country, in addition to the Xuantian Sealing Demon Array on the Xuantian Cliff side was more important to him, which was related to his strategic plan to conquer other worlds in the future, there was also a purpose to force Shen Zhong to take the initiative to come to him.
If he was just fighting alone, Xia Fan would naturally take the initiative to attack, so that he could hold the initiative in his own hands.
But now he is still leading an army of 500,000, if he runs to attack Shen Zhong now, then the situation is quite unfavorable for him.
The reason is very simple, Xia Fan's current behavior is to lead troops to invade the Shenmu Country, but it is said that he is an enemy wherever he goes, let alone the army of the Shenmu Country, and even ordinary people may become enemies at any time.
If Xia Fan goes to attack a relatively prosperous city, then there will be not only the army of the Shenmu Kingdom who will fight against him, but also the local people, Xia Fan will not dare to fight such a battle, but he will not get too much benefit from fighting one by one.
With fighting, there will inevitably be casualties, which is inevitable. If you just kill the enemy, it's nothing, but if you accidentally injure a large number of ordinary people, you will inevitably leave a deep hatred, which will lead to some trouble in ruling in the future.
In addition, although the number of troops in his hands is large, the vast majority of them are still surrendered troops from the Divine Eye Country, and if they go to kill the people of the Divine Eye Country, they may resist, and then there will be desertions and even mutinies and other things.
At the same time, if he really fell into the quagmire of fighting one battle after another, Xia Fan was really worried that these surrendered troops who had just returned to Shun would not be able to hold on.
Now it's different, he hit him, and Shen Zhong had to rush over and bump into him in order to stop him.
This is actually equivalent to Xia Fan occupying the initiative in this battle, at least, when and where to fight, Xia Fan can have the final say.
In this way, Xia Fan had a way to use the advantages of the terrain to smooth out Shen Zhong's advantage in numbers as much as possible.
After continuing to march for another one or two thousand miles, and after breaking through two small cities that were not very large, Xia Fan asked his army to set up camp next to a lake with a radius of about twenty miles.
For generals, in addition to fighting, eating and drinking are always the most important.
Although the strength of the cultivators can be cleared after reaching a certain level, the generals who need to fight and fight cannot do this.
The first is that the exercises practiced by these generals are very different from those of orthodox cultivators, and in the early stage, in order to be able to gain strong strength as soon as possible, they will inevitably pull out the seedlings to help them grow, which also makes many of them able to cultivate a strength comparable to that of ordinary cultivators, but they cannot reach too high a realm.
Basically, the average soldier can reach the god realm is already quite good in terms of qualifications and luck, all because they damaged their foundation in order to gain strong strength in the early days.
People like Ge Changhe who can enter the Dao cultivation from a sword and shield soldier are definitely rare, and if there is no chance, in the end it will be just a pile of dry bones, which is difficult to immortalize.
The second is that the soldiers and generals are fighting day by day, and they are covered in bloody qi, and their absorption of the aura of heaven and earth is not as good as that of ordinary cultivators.
In this way, if you want to get enough strength in your body, of course, you can only get it through food.
If it weren't for that, Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong wouldn't have to worry about the ever-increasing logistical pressure every day.
Soldiers in the army will eat more because of the frequent battles and high physical exertion. The idea that a soldier can clear the valley if he has achieved achievements in cultivation, and then he doesn't have to worry about food and grass anymore is definitely a dream.
If you need to eat and drink, you can't do without clean water. And the 500,000 army plus the horses just drinking water is a huge number, so when setting up camp, they must choose a place with abundant water and grass.
The lake is called Xiaojing Lake, which is said to be named because the surface of the lake is calm and flat like a mirror.
This Xiaojing Lake is definitely a good place, there are no mountains around, and the flat river is very flat within thousands of miles, and there are several rivers that gather in Xiaojing Lake, which provides sufficient water for irrigation of the surrounding fields, which also makes the fields here very fertile.
It's just that now there is not even a farmer within a radius of hundreds of miles, the reason is very simple, the 500,000 army marched, and the dust kicked up by walking was more than ten miles wide, floating into the sky like a yellow dragon, as long as they were not blind, those people ran away early.
Xia Fan issued an order to let the soldiers and generals set up camp, and the rest didn't need him to worry about it anymore, and someone else would arrange these trivial matters. But Xia Fan walked around with his hands behind his back.
"Senior brother, what are you going to do?" Qinglian Dao Nu followed, and said with a smile: "Shall I go with you?"
"Come with you if you want. Xia Fan didn't continue, and walked outside.
Although it seems that Xia Fan is not walking fast, with his strength, he can step out at least hundreds of miles away. That is, because there is a Qinglian Dao girl by her side, in order to accommodate her, Xia Fan can only step out for a hundred and ten miles, so that at least the Qinglian Dao girl can keep up.
While walking, Xia Fan would pull out a Ten Thousand Soul Banner from time to time and insert it on the ground, in the air, or in the water.
These Ten Thousand Soul Flags were clearly visible in Xia Fan's hands, and when they were arranged by him and left his hands, they gradually disappeared, as if they were fused with the surrounding heaven and earth.
"Senior brother, who are you setting up the formation to deal with this time?," Qinglian Dao Nu asked curiously.
"Who else could there be, of course, Shen Zhong and his men. Xia Fan didn't hide it from her.
"Will he be fooled?" asked the Qinglian Dao Girl with a smile.
"Then it depends on whether he is smart or stupid?!" Xia Fan also laughed.
After walking for a while, after arranging thirty or forty Ten Thousand Soul Flags, Xia Fan grabbed the hand of the Qinglian Dao Girl and had already appeared in Xuantian Cliff after a few jumps.
The current Xuantian Cliff is very different from the original Xia Fan after killing the Hetian Ancestor, after the arrangement of the Jinsu and his disciples and grandchildren, it already has the appearance of a dojo to some extent.
Although at first glance it certainly can't be compared with the dojos of the three sects and six sects, at least it has a large framework, which will be slowly filled in the future, and it will always be able to cultivate some foundation in tens or hundreds of years.
See the Lord. Sensing Xia Fan's arrival, the array hurriedly came over to greet him, and said: "Not long ago, I heard that the Lord was leading troops to come, and I wanted to go over to greet him in person, but not long ago, the Xuantian Demon Sealing Array was a little shaken, and I could only stay to suppress it, and ask the Lord for forgiveness if the ceremony is not enough." ”
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Xia Fan waved his hand and said with concern: "What's wrong with the formation?"
