Chapter 624: Lord, the Night Demon Army is over
Black smoke surrounds the sky. Endless winds swept across the land, and the cumulus clouds in the sky sank. The entire sky was covered in pitch-black clouds, but the sky above Fengdu City was sprinkled with ten thousand rays of light.
At this moment, the sky and the earth are snowing. But in the sky above Fengdu City, it disappeared because of the battle between Thousand Dusk Snow and the Water Moon Palace Lord. The charging Daredevils turned into a monstrous beast, and the city of Fengdu in the distance seemed to turn into a man-eating beast.
The Xuanyin Sect Master was condescending, looking at Fengdu City from a distance, and the blood-red fog contracted sharply and retreated towards the south gate. And leaving the south gate, there will be no city until Zhongzhou. At this moment, the Xuanyin Sect Master should be happy, but for some reason, a trace of uneasiness flashed in his heart.
Fengdu City has been taken, and without Fengdu City as a barrier, the attack on Zhongzhou will be just around the corner. The Phoenix Army was still dozens of miles behind him, and the forbidden army in front of him was also repulsed by himself. By now, it can be said that the overall situation is decided. But...... Why?
Following the direction of the retreat of the forbidden army, everyone thought that the general headquarters of the forbidden army should be in Zhongzhou. However, even if he broke the head of the Xuanyin Sect Master, he would never have thought that the general headquarters of the forbidden army, which he despised and thought was a waste of fame, was actually in Jiahe City, thirty miles southwest of Fengdu City.
In the general ledger, there is no sound. In addition to the original liaison generals at all levels, there are only two newcomer faces who have just completed the war. Gongzi Yu suddenly raised his head and smiled brightly at the purple jade and the twilight snow.
"The two gentlemen have worked hard, and the battle just now is enough to make the real thing happen. Now that the Daredevil Army has taken the bait, our overall situation has been decided!"
"It doesn't matter if Poor Dao and Dusk Snow Sword Immortal can calm Xuanyin and return a peaceful world in Kyushu Unai, Poor Dao will be satisfied. I don't know what General Gongziyu should do next, and what do you need us to do?"
"The next step will be the nightmare of the Night Demon Army, but because of this, the Xuanyin Sect Master and the Water Moon Palace Master will jump over the wall in a hurry. I was afraid that they would make a desperate bet, so I left the task of intercepting the two of them to the two gentlemen. I don't want to be able to resist the two of them to the death, I only hope to be able to slow down the pace of the two and not let them interfere with the normal fighting of our army. ”
"This is naturally no problem!" Ziyu Zhenrang said with an oath, Ziyu, who had the blessing of Fenggu Pan, felt as if she was as powerful as a god. Although he didn't get the slightest advantage in front of the Xuanyin Sect Master just now, that feeling of Heavenly Dao clarity made Ziyu Zhenren more and more intoxicated.
Twilight Snow is still as clear as ice, standing quietly to the side and looking at the snowflakes in the sky. She doesn't speak, she doesn't participate. But no one can ignore her presence. For the void in the sky that had not yet been closed was cut open by her sword.
And after seeing the great power of Qianduxue, people will understand that it turns out that martial arts masters can change the world and reverse the cycle of the four seasons, these are not groundless, these are all real happenings.
Gongzi Yu secretly glanced at the tranquil Twilight Snow, and the Twilight Snow who put away her momentum did not have the cold momentum she had before, although she had a shocking face but did not have that transcendent temperament, she was more like an innocent girl admiring the sunset in the afternoon.
This woman who looks like the sister next door doesn't look like the kind of martial arts master who can slaughter all beings with a knife in her hand. However, she is just a thousand mountains and twilight snow, and a sword fairy under the moon.
Putting away his gaze, Gongzi Yu gently said to the liaison soldiers who were running back and forth, "Has the encirclement of each unit been completed?"
"It's done, the artillery positions have been set up, ready to attack at any time!"
"In that case...... Then ......" Gongzi Yu gently straightened his body and slapped Fengdu City on the map with a strong palm. With the firelight as a signal, the firelight ascends to the sky, and all of them attack, this time I want the Daredevil Army to go to the sky and have no way to land!
The walls of Fengdu City were reduced to powder under the impact of the Night Demon Army, and the nearly 200,000 main cavalry of the Night Demon Army crashed into Fengdu City like a torrent. What I saw was a dead silence. The imaginary street fighting did not appear, and not a single ghost could be seen in the entire Fengdu City.
The war horse galloped, and after entering Fengdu City, they tacitly dispersed and diverted to the official roads that extended in all directions. Although the 200,000 horses of the Daredevil Army gathered together, after pouring into the huge Fengdu City, they quickly disappeared as if they were fish in the sea.
The cavalry opened the way, and the miscellaneous troops behind them also slowly packed up the military supplies and drove towards Fengdu City. There wasn't much of a smile on their faces, because the miscellaneous soldiers knew it very well in their hearts. In Fengdu City, they also couldn't absorb any supplies.
Although the Janissaries were vulnerable, even though all the resistance they encountered was so fragile. But there is one point, the forbidden army is so beautiful that people can't find fault with it. That's the clear wilderness.
Along the way, they conquered nearly twenty cities, but they didn't find any useful supplies. If the forbidden army is allowed to clean up the battlefield, it will definitely be a good hand at scraping the ground.
But for the Quartermaster Service, it was a nightmare. When a soldier eats food, he has to eat food in wartime. However, they didn't have much food to bring, and if they couldn't enter Zhongzhou as originally planned, even if there was no enemy counterattack, they would be demoralized because of the lack of food.
Xuanyin Sect Leader Shuiyue Palace Master and Luo Tiancheng rode war horses side by side on the streets of Fengdu City, looking at Fengdu City that was depressed because of the war, and they felt endless emotion in their hearts. Although they were not satisfied with the forbidden army's retreat to Zhongzhou, after all, Fengdu City was captured, and when the heavy snow stopped, they could drive straight into Zhongzhou.
And taking Fengdu City also means that Lizhou has been opened, even if it is intercepted in Zhongzhou, the Daredevil Army can flank other cities in Lizhou and completely control Lizhou. With Fengdu City in hand, the Phoenix Army behind him will not be afraid. Leaving behind seventy or eighty thousand defenders, plus the fifty thousand defenders in Jiyuan County, the Phoenix Army was no longer able to flank itself from the rear.
The Xuanyin Sect Master looked at Fengdu City with great interest, and suddenly a doubt flowed through the mind of the Xuanyin Sect Master, "Brother Luo, why are the houses and buildings in Fengdu City all made of wood? Isn't this easier to corrode? And it's also very troublesome to repair?"
"The lord doesn't know, this matter has to start from two hundred years ago. Legend has it that there was an earth dragon deep underground in Fengdu City, and the earth dragon rolled and the sky collapsed. Especially two hundred years ago, when the earth dragon turned over and turned the entire Fengdu City into ruins.
At that time, there were 100,000 inhabitants of Fengdu City, and almost all of them were buried in the rubble. Since then, it has been rumored by the people around that the earth dragon stirs up trouble and needs to be restrained by Otogi. After all, among the five elements, Yimu Ketu.
So since then, all the houses in Fengdu City have been made of wood. The only stone material is the towering city wall. But it's also strange to say, since that time, there has never been a single earth dragon turning over in Fengdu City. So everyone thought that it was the wood that restrained the earth dragon.
After two hundred years of changes, Fengdu City has once again regained its former prosperity. As long as we enter the capital of Zhongzhou and take over the rivers and mountains of Kyushu, the lord can see the different regional people of Fengdu City. Because of the strangeness of Fengdu City, in the summer and autumn of previous years, more and more people will come here. ”
"Hey...... In the past 40 years, I don't know how many ups and downs I have missed. Forget it, I'm afraid that the exotic people in Fengdu City will not be blessed......" Xuanyin Sect Master was rarely in a good mood, and he also said with a half-joking smile.
Taking the capital is equivalent to marching into Zhongzhou. There are only six checkpoints from entering Zhongzhou to the city of the capital, although I know that it is difficult to get through the six checkpoints, maybe the imperial court will also give it a go.
However, the impact on the morale of the defenders is very fatal, and once the Daredevil army invades Zhongzhou, the strength of the local armies may not be half of the usual. Because at that point, they think not only about winning or losing, but also about taking sides.
Mo Li, the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, spent five full years in order to lay down a piece of territory, and won three points of the world for a full ten years, but when he annexed one, the final battle of unification only took one year.
Which of the princes who can stay until the last is the easiest one? Is it true that the combat effectiveness of the army is inferior to the fighting power of the perennial chaotic battles? In fact, it is not because after the situation is clear, the forces of all sides have a clear position. If you become a king or lose a villain, why not surrender to Cheng and continue to be an official?
The court is subverted, the most unlucky is only the royal family, the door valve family is the door valve family after all, even if the new emperor ascends the throne, they are needed to rely on. Therefore, Mo Junxie thought that as long as he opened up Lizhou, the throne was already within reach!
"What smell?" a voice sounded interrupting Mo Junxie's fantasy, and following the smell, he saw a soldier quickly discarding the bucket that had just been salvaged from the well and running over.
"Lord...... General...... Oh no...... It's oil, and the well is full of oil......"
As soon as the words fell, Luo Tiancheng only felt that his eyes were dark, if it weren't for the support of the soldiers around him, he would have fallen from the horse. Luo Tiancheng's face turned pale, his eyes straightened as he looked at the Fengdu City, the wooden buildings that were full of them, and he looked up to the sky and smiled for a moment.
"Hahaha...... Hahaha...... It is worthy of Gongzi Yu...... Sure enough, it was Gongzi Yu...... It's so spicy, it's so powerful......"
"Brother Luo, what's the matter?" The Xuanyin Sect Master on the side suddenly burst into a panic. What could make Luo Tiancheng so desperate? Could it be ...... Is there really an ambush of the Forbidden Army here?
"Lord, the Daredevil Army is finished...... From the moment he stepped into the Fengdu City, it was over! Gongzi Yu was so ruthless, he buried a large amount of fire oil in the Fengdu City, he wanted to burn the Fengdu City! The Fengdu City was full of wooden houses, and there was nowhere to escape, even if he wanted to put out the fire. He's going to kill our Daredevil!"
"What?" The Xuanyin Sect Master felt a chill in his back in an instant, his scalp exploded in an instant, and his originally ruddy face instantly became as miserable as white paper, "Withdraw, quickly withdraw, order all the Night Demon Army, all of them to withdraw for me-"
"Boom-" There was a loud bang, and the ground shook. That loud bang seemed to be just a signal. Immediately afterward, countless roars rang out from all directions.
"Is it artillery?" the Daredevil army in the Sealed Capital City raised their heads suspiciously, they had now entered the city, and the artillery hidden in the Sealed Capital City was no longer useful. Isn't it a waste of precious ammunition to fight randomly?
