Chapter 843: When will the reinforcements come

Yukong Yue was deeply in harmony with the truth that people were sick and wanted people's lives, so he didn't give Lan Haolin the slightest respite at all, and chased and fought all the way, leading the army to pursue to the foot of Qingyu Mountain.

Although after a long period of conquest and fighting, the soldiers and horses under the command of Yu Kongyue have not decreased, but because they have continuously subdued the army that originally belonged to Lan Haolin, more and more, even after a rigorous selection, the total number of soldiers and horses in her hands has reached 400,000 at this time. Such a number is already quite staggering.

Even if it can't be compared with the total number of soldiers and horses under Lan Haolin's command at his peak, the combat power of the soldiers and horses is surpassing.

Unlike Yu Kongyue's current strong soldiers and horses, Lan Haolin's soldiers and horses are now only 200,000, which is already all his family resources. And these soldiers and horses except for the original garrison of Qingyu City, the rest of the combat power is not very good, it can't be said that they are all old, weak, sick and disabled, but they are not elite soldiers and strong generals, if they don't rely on the geographical advantage to hold on, I am afraid that they will be completely defeated and collapsed in a head-to-head confrontation.

When Qingyu City was built, although the national strength of the Blue Jade Kingdom did not reach its heyday, it was also in a rising period, and the taxes were abundant, so it was a lot of effort to build Qingyu City. According to records, the construction of this Qingyu City alone cost nearly three years of taxes from the Blue Jade Kingdom, and at that time, there were as many as 3 million people who were requisitioned and dispatched, and it took five years to build this city.

After Qingyu City was built, some people at that time had an eye that Qingyu City relied on Qingyu Mountain and protected it with the help of the formation, it was absolutely unbreakable, even if it was with the mountain protection array of those famous families, it was not weak at all. It can completely withstand the attack of a million heroes.

The reason why the people who built the city dared to make such a bold statement was not without reason. Qingyu City consumed a lot of manpower and material resources when it was built, so it was naturally extremely strong, needless to say. The biggest reason that really makes the people who built the city have the confidence to boast that Qingyu City is unbreakable is that there is not only a large protective array on Qingyu City, but also many formations are arranged on Qingyu Mountain, and the two are superimposed and colluded with each other, complementing each other, and then making the great protective array extremely powerful.

Now Lan Haolin is relying on such a large and strong city protection array to confront the 400,000 army of the Imperial Sky Moon.

After going through a series of battles, and being defeated by Yu Kong Yue again and again and then fleeing as if he was a lost dog, Lan Haolin's courage has lost seventy or eighty percent, and he has lost the strength of the previous arrogance, he is now really like a gambler who has lost a red eye, holding the last bit of family foundation in his hand, he wants to make a desperate bet and fight, but because the opponent Yu Kong Yue is too strong, he has been defeated three times and twice, so that he has lost more and more confidence.

Even though he was in the safest place in Qingyu City, surrounded by 200,000 soldiers and horses, Lan Haolin still felt unstable.

"Come on, let's take a look, are the reinforcements from the Divine Eye Kingdom coming?" Lan Haolin called a henchman and ordered.

After his henchmen left, Lan Haolin's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said secretly: "Shen Zhong, this bastard, has long said that he will send troops to support me, but he has not seen the reinforcements arrive for a long time, he would rather send troops to fight with Lu Chuan, rob Lu Chuan's territory city by city, and refuse to send troops to save me, thinking that I can't understand, this bastard obviously wants to watch me run out of water, and then occupy my territory in the name of saving me or helping me avenge, damn!"

At the thought of this, Lan Haolin couldn't help but be angry and annoyed, but he was helpless. He is no longer the blue jade lord who has a vast territory, many soldiers and horses in his hands, and is full of spirit, thinking that he can conquer the world at any time, but a poor worm who is in a difficult situation, waiting for others to save him, the situation is stronger than people, what qualifications does he have to ask for too much.

In fact, Lan Haolin didn't understand the reality, and he didn't have too many illusions. Even if he had the slightest illusion before, after withstanding repeated blows, he also knew how to accept the cold reality.

Just thinking about the past, and looking at the present, Lan Haolin is still a little unwilling no matter how much he accepts the reality, especially thinking that he is already so miserable, Shen Zhong, that bastard, not only does not save himself when he sees death, but also thinks about using himself, and he doesn't care about the friendship of his fellow disciples in the past, so he can't help but feel chilled.

Of course, Lan Haolin actually knew in his heart that this was not an uncommon thing, almost all of the emperor's disciples were like this, how could those who could achieve great things really care about any affection. Even if it's about friendship, it's just to take advantage of the other party. If he sat in Shen Zhong's position, he would do the same, and he would do it more directly.

But when he was waiting to be rescued, Lan Haolin was not so comfortable, so he was unwilling and very unhappy, but he couldn't help it, while scolding Shen Zhong for not being a good thing, he was looking forward to his reinforcements coming soon.

The dull explosion of "Boom ......" suddenly came from outside, which made Lan Haolin startled, and then his face became even more ugly, because he knew in his heart that this was the army of Yukong Moon that had begun to attack Qingyu City.

...............

Although Xia Fan agreed to Mu Sheng's request to find a suitable place to build a dojo on his own territory, he didn't plan to get too involved in this matter, and he wasn't even prepared to give too many suggestions. As for Mu Sheng's choice of location in the future, whether they can really occupy it and build a dojo, Xia Fan also depends on the actual situation. After all, the dojo of a sect is not trivial, and the things involved are also in all aspects, so you can't be careless.

Generally speaking, Xia Fan is quite welcome to Danzong's migration to his own territory, after all, with the existence of Danzong, it is of considerable benefit to the development of his territory, such as allowing the army to have a relatively stable source of pills, which is definitely not a bad thing.

In fact, Xia Fan was not short of pills, in addition to his own ability to refine relatively high-end pills, the alchemists owned by the Danwang Valley under his command could still provide a steady stream of some low-level pills used by low-level soldiers in the army. It's just that if he can get the elixir from Danzong, it will definitely be a good thing for him and his forces. There was no reason why he would refuse.

In fact, despite the solid foundation he laid, the development of Danwang Valley is also quite good, but with the number of soldiers and horses under Xia Fan's command now expanding like blowing up balloons, coupled with the loss of various fierce battles and Xia Fan's high requirements, the resulting logistical pressure has made Danwang Valley a little breathless.

Although Liu Yulinglong and Yan Chiyan had not complained to him about anything, and had been doing their best to support logistics, Xia Fan was not the kind of person who didn't understand anything, and he was very clear about the pressure that Danwang Valley was under now. He has been thinking about how to help them share some of the pressure, but there has been no good way, what he could do before was to let them recruit as many people as possible, but this is only a symptom but not a cure.

And this time, Danzong planned to move into his territory, which could be regarded as a better solution for Xia Fan.

In fact, Xia Fan had thought of this method a long time ago, that is, to share part of the pressure of Danwang Valley by buying pills, magic weapons, talismans, etc., but this idea turned and turned in his heart, but he never implemented it, the reason is very simple, he is not at ease.

Whether it was an elixir, a magic weapon or a talisman or something, Xia Fan was going to use it for his generals, and he didn't want any problems to arise. Especially the elixir, because it is an imported thing, the quality is quite critical. The reason why Xia Fan was strict with Danwang Valley before was that he didn't want to cause a series of troubles due to the decline in the quality of the pill because he was a little looser.

For Xia Fan, it was not easy for the recruited soldiers to fight around with him, almost tying their heads to the waistband of their trousers, and it would be too bad if there was another problem with the food they were fed. From the bottom of his heart, Xia Fan didn't want to and would never do this.

Although there is a saying that Ci is not in charge of the army, this is definitely not to say that as a superior person, he does not take the lives of his soldiers and horses seriously. At least Xia Fan can't do that kind of careless thing about people's lives.

Because of this, Xia Fan has been hesitant to purchase pills, because if he does so, the risks and uncertainties are too great. After all, Danwang Valley is his, and he can be strict with them, but Danzong doesn't have a direct relationship with him, and it is really difficult for him to ensure that the pills they refine meet the standards he needs.

It's not that he suspects that Danzong's pill is bad, it's just that it's not under his control.

But if Danzong moved to his territory, it would be easy to do, and he could have in-depth discussions with them about purchasing pills, and he could also set a strict standard for them. Danzong can accept it, do it, if he can't accept it, pull it down, if Danzong agrees but can't do it well, Xia Fan also has a way to settle accounts with them, because the monk can't run the temple.

Although this idea is good, Xia Fan also knows whether it can become a reality, it depends on whether Danzong can find a suitable place to build a dojo, and at the same time, he also has to see if Danzong has the idea and determination to cooperate.

Because these are all things in the future, Xia Fan didn't pay too much attention to this at this time. The current Xia Fan is more busy restoring the Qiankun Sect that was damaged by the previous battle.

Under the attack of the Lotus Peng Ancestor that day, not only the outer part of the mountain protection array collapsed, but also many mountains, forests and buildings on it were destroyed. Destroyed houses can be rebuilt, dead trees can be rebuilt, but the mountains that have been blown up are difficult to restore. Xia Fan thought about it and decided that he would just clean up the rubble or something, and ignore the collapsed peak.

In Xia Fan's words: "Stay, so that the disciples of the Qiankun Sect can take a good look at what the Qiankun Sect has experienced, and also let them cultivate more seriously, so that when they encounter similar dangers again, they can stand up and defend the Qiankun Sect." ”

Of course, the Thirteen Princes and others agreed with his statement, but they couldn't help but be secretly ashamed, because when Xia Fan stayed in the Qiankun Sect to fight for life and death, they left. Even if Xia Fan let them go, when they came back and saw the Qiankun Sect being beaten and thought about the fierceness of the battle, they still felt very embarrassed.

Xia Fan was comforting them, saying that it was not their fault, nor was it their cowardice, but that the situation was really critical at that time, and it was not at all that their strength at that time could participate. It is good to have the heart to defend the sect, but you must also do what you can. Especially now that there are not many disciples in the Qiankun Sect, each of them is very important, so it is even more important to take good care of yourself and contribute to the prosperity of the sect in the future.
