Chapter 977: You Do Deserve to Die
The defenders in the deep city also noticed Xia Fan's arrival at this time. Although the generals who were ordered to garrison this place did not open the city gate and send the defenders to support, they did send the cultivators who came to help in the battle.
"Big brother, long time no see. "The Thirteenth Prince, Shi Yong and others came over one after another, and after saying hello to Xia Fan, they went straight into the battle group.
Xia Fan only noticed at this time that after not seeing each other for many days, the Thirteen Princes and the others not only had a little more fierce looks, but also had a great improvement in strength, and they all already possessed the strength of the Divine Spirit Realm.
Obviously, being in the army and helping to defend the city and fight is really a lot of training for them.
In addition to being fearless of death, the biggest advantage of the soul body is that it is more resilient, because it is not flesh and blood, so it will not feel tired even after a long battle. In this way, as long as you don't die, you can continue to fight.
Although the soldiers of the Divine Eye Kingdom are brave, it is impossible to fight endlessly, and the fierce battle will gradually become tired after a long time, and the combat power will also decline.
Moreover, the two sides fought fiercely, and it was inevitable that there would be casualties. Even if the souls are slashed three times or twice, they can still continue to fight without care. However, the soldiers of the Divine Eye Country can't do it, even if they are not fatal if they are stabbed, their combat power will be damaged, and the more dead and injured their comrades, the morale will naturally continue to be affected.
Although Tu Yuanli tried his best to control the army, so that everyone could hold on, and fight with Xia Fan's soul body to the end.
However, when his own army reached more than thirty percent, the military spirit of the Divine Eye Country was already a little turbulent. Especially when the Flame White Ape King and the others began to roar and rush into the Divine Eye National Array and start killing, the already crumbling military array collapsed.
As the saying goes: defeat is like a mountain. Tu Yuanli's army is like this now, and the remaining 1780,000 people are running around like frightened ducks, and the scene is definitely quite spectacular.
And in the process, because of trampling on each other and killing each other, it will inevitably cause more casualties.
It's just that these are no longer under Tu Yuanli's control, and he was escorted by the guards around him and fled all the way towards the hinterland of the Divine Eye Kingdom.
"Pursue it. Xia Fan ordered casually, and then said: "Collect the prisoners, those who are willing to submit will be reorganized on the spot, and we will continue to attack later, and those who are not willing to submit will be sent to Baishi City as hard labor." ”
With 100,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the deep city in hand, Xia Fan no longer had to kill all the captives in order to avoid trouble. Even if you can't recruit your own soldiers and horses, you can go to White Rock City to build a city.
After chasing and killing the enemy for a while at this time, the Thirteen Princes, Shi Yong, Jian Courage, Yunxi Fairy, and Qinglian Daonu and others returned to Xia Fan and chatted with him.
The Thirteenth Prince asked where Xia Fan and the three of them had gone some time ago. Needless to say than Xia Fan, the Qinglian Dao Girl told her about the experience of going to the Demon Realm, and everyone who listened to it was amazed, especially the Thirteen Princes.
"Senior brother, next time you have a chance, take me with you. The Thirteen Princes said.
"Okay. Xia Fan nodded and said with a smile: "As long as your strength can reach the sixth level of the Divine Spirit Realm or above, I will take you with me when I go again, otherwise forget it, lest you go and encounter a strong enemy and not be able to deal with it." ””
"No matter how powerful the Demon Realm is, it shouldn't be full of powerhouses in the Divine Spirit Realm and the Grandmaster Realm. The Thirteen Princes said.
"Of course, it can't be full of powerhouses from the Divine Spirit Realm and the Grandmaster Realm over there, but don't forget, you are always following Senior Brother when you go, and how can the strength of the Demon Race who can be the enemy of Senior Brother be poor?" Fairy Yunxi smiled.
"Yes, yes, this time we went to the Demon Realm and met a lot of Grandmaster Realm powerhouses, but as a result, we almost didn't do anything to help, and we were depressed to death. Qinglian Daonu sighed, her face depressed.
Hearing this, the faces of the Thirteen Princes and the others also showed a bit of solemnity.
Their current strength is not strong, at least compared with the vast majority of their peers, they are already in the forefront, but they are still far behind Xia Fan. Naturally, there was no way to help Xia Fan when he was fighting.
The reason is very simple, to be qualified to be Xia Fan's opponent now must at least be a strong person in the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, while the Thirteen Princes and others only have the strength of the Divine Spirit Realm, even if they want to help, they can't help. If you have to help, you will help more and more.
After realizing this, the Thirteen Princes and the others all had a feeling that their own strength was still not enough, and they thought that they should work harder to cultivate.
"What about King Dan, why didn't you see him?" Xia Fan asked.
"He stayed in Yunhuanhu Lake for alchemy. The Thirteenth Prince replied.
Xia Fan nodded, and didn't ask any more. Everyone has their own practice, and it doesn't necessarily have to go through battle to improve. Just like King Xiao Dan, he loves alchemy and is good at alchemy, and if he goes down this road, he may not be able to step into the realm of the grandmaster step by step.
Xia Fan chatted with everyone for a while, answered some questions they had encountered in cultivation, and then led his troops to attack again.
Unlike when he came, there were only a few thousand soldiers and horses around him, and the soldiers and horses under his command had skyrocketed to 100,000 when he set off at this time, of which 30,000 were the elites drawn from the garrison of the deep city, and the rest were the captives of the Shenmu Kingdom who surrendered.
The total number of these surrendered troops was more than 60,000, but Xia Fan was not worried that they would dare to rebel, because even if there were no 30,000 elite soldiers accompanying him, he could suppress them at any time with his soul body alone.
This time, Xia Fan did not continue to march towards the hinterland of the Shenmu Kingdom, but turned his head to attack the soldiers and horses of the Shenmu Kingdom who were ordered by Tu Yuanli to attack and contain the other two small cities.
These two armies are only about 100,000 people, and the army led by Shang Xia Fan is definitely only crushed.
After the two battles, in addition to the dead soldiers and horses and the prisoners who refused to submit, the army in Xia Fan's hands increased by another 250,000 again.
Among them, 150,000 people were originally soldiers and horses under the command of Yu Kongyue, who had been ordered to garrison in the small city to put pressure on Tu Yuanli and Jian Fang. The other 100,000 are the surrender troops of the Divine Eye Kingdom.
As a result, Xia Fan's army suddenly increased to 350,000, and this was really just the beginning for him.
..................
"Haha......" In the midst of wild laughter, the breath rolled out, enveloping the palace of the Divine Eye Kingdom, and the illusion of a giant eye was faintly revealed.
It was so lifelike, hanging in the air as if looking down on everyone below, that all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, trembling and praying again and again.
When Shen Zhong came out of the retreat room, his face was full of smiles and high spirits, and the coercion emanating from his body at this time was also as vast as the sea, which showed that he had already stepped into the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm.
"With my current strength, even if I am afraid of Shang Xia Fan?!" Shen Zhong became happier the more he thought about it, and he couldn't help but laugh again.
"Reporting to the king, General Tu Yuanli came back and was waiting outside the palace gate, saying that he wanted to ask the king for guilt. Lan Haolin saw that Shen Zhong's aura suddenly became so powerful, and his heart was shocked and envious, but he didn't show it at all, but reported something that made Shen Zhong not very happy.
"He's back?!He's not leading troops at Youfeng Pass, what are you doing when he comes back?!" Shen Zhong was startled, and suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't believe it, and hurriedly said, "Pass him in." ”
"See the king, the last general and Xia Fan fought a field battle outside the deep city, but they were defeated by him, resulting in the loss of most of the soldiers and horses, please punish the king!" Tu Yuanli was quite a bachelor, and when he saw Shen Zhong, he knelt on the ground and told him how the army was defeated.
If it were at another time, Shen Zhong might still feel that although he was defeated, he couldn't blame him for being unfavorable in commanding the army, maybe he would find a reason to punish him lightly or let him make meritorious service or something.
But today is different, originally Shen Zhong went out today, just when he was happy, but he heard such bad news, which simply made his good mood become terrible all of a sudden.
In addition, Lan Haolin was still standing next to him, although he didn't say anything, lowering his head as if he hadn't heard Tu Yuanli's words at all, but Shen Zhong knew that he had heard it, which also made him even more embarrassed.
Why did Shen Zhong take in Lan Haolin, of course, it was not because of the friendship of his fellow disciples, let alone because he really fell in love with Lan Haolin's talent, but because he had two purposes.
First, when he wanted to capture the territory of the Blue Jade Country in the future, there was a Lan Haolin, and what he did accounted for the righteousness, and he was famous.
The second is that Shen Zhong also wants Lan Haolin to see that he is better than him. You lost badly at the hands of Xia Fan at the beginning, and now I am going to defeat him.
The idea was good, but Shen Zhong didn't expect things to be so small, he had just broken through to the Grandmaster Realm, and he hadn't been happy yet, but Tu Yuanli sent the news of the defeat. This Nima is simply slapping him in the face.
"You're right, you really deserve to die!" Shen Zhong was furious, and suddenly became murderous.
When the word death came out, Shen Zhong's breath suddenly surged, and suddenly the third eye at the center of his eyebrows suddenly opened a thin slit, and a dazzling white light flew out, directly shining on Tu Yuanli, who raised his head in shock.
"Ahh The scene can be described as terrifying.
"He's so ruthless, he's scaring me. Seeing this, Lan Haolin felt disgusted and frightened in his heart, and at the same time even more disgusted. After all, he also served as the lord of the country, and he also understood this set of methods, knowing that Shen Zhong was killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, he was naturally unhappy.
However, he still said respectfully: "The king is angry, although General Tu was defeated, but after all, he brought back some generals, and he can remobilize the army and send the famous generals in the country to kill Xia Fan." ”
"Famous generals?!Hmph, it's all rice buckets. Shen Zhong sneered and said, "This time I will go out in person, you go with me and kill Xia Fan to prevent future troubles." ”
