The blood that the sea breeze can't blow away is still scattered around this Xuanshui Bay. On the sea outside the bay, the waves continued to break the planks and broken wood of the warships of the Xudu Army, and washed them up on the beach.

The broken military flag of the Nine Shadows Kingdom is still hanging high in the city, waving in the wind and hunting.

The cruelty of the war, and the breath of death that still diffused after the war, only made the surviving Nine Ghost Army sad, but it completely stimulated their fighting spirit. aroused their hatred even stronger, and the next attack of the Xudu army would have to face a more violent counterattack.

"Then under the scorched earth of the beach, a deadly trap was laid out and hidden under the sand. Not far behind Xuanshui Bay, there were many damages on that side, full of scorch marks, but still across the city wall behind the beachhead, Ji Kang, who took over the words, sang and sang in Yingzhao, turned his head to look at Yingzhao, only to see Yingzhao also turned his head to look at him at this time, the two ghosts looked at each other and smiled, Ji Kang said again: "These recent many firefights, you and I can see that Gong Mingyi only dares to start the onslaught at night; He is most likely afraid of our country's firearms and sharpshooters who can shoot accurately. And it can be inferred that the next time he attacks will be at night. At that time, the night is dark and the wind is high, as long as the trap is well arranged, the Xudu army will not be able to see the clue. ”。

Ying Zhao looked at Ji Kang, and during the time when the other party was talking, he could always see a trace of hatred in the other party's eyes, lingering in the bottom of his eyes.

It was clear that this clear hatred was not directed at the Nine Shadows Kingdom. That was Ji Kang's hatred for the Northern Yin Dynasty and Gong Mingyi. There is also an imperceptible sense of pride, and Ji Kang seems to have seen the scene of Gong Mingyi suffering again.

But for Ying Zhao, I am very glad that this soul has not been carried away by hatred so far. At least the countermeasures he proposed were the result of calm thinking. And after Yingzhao repeatedly deduced it in his mind several times, the result was that this plan was also feasible.

"You can prepare what you need first, but you have to start creating traps at dusk. After a long time, Ji Kang, who put away his hatred and pride, opened his lips again and said, "According to my understanding of Gong Mingyi, this person is ruthless, but he is also cautious. His air cavalry patrols the island from time to time, using a clairvoyant mirror to check the island's movements. Only when the sky is dark after dusk can the trap be laid out, so that this plan to bloom on the tree can be flawless. ”。

"When the Xudu army attacked again, they would rush up desperately when they saw the undefended beachhead. When he said this, Ji Kang's tone was calm as usual. Even the look on his face is the same, without waves. Just looked at the beach outside the city, cleaning the battlefield in the eyes of the Nine Shadows Army, there was a trace of imperceptible excitement.

"Master Ji Kang, you have obviously proved your usefulness and loyalty, and I will report your merits as soon as the battle is over. Ying Zhao turned around and strode towards the city wall.

Ji Kang himself was left standing alone at the head of the city, continuing to look into the distance. He extended his gaze farther away, and the sea was already full of messes, behind the stone pillars and peaks on the sea, where Gong Mingyi was.

From the day he decided to be loyal to the Nine Shadows Kingdom, Ji Kang had already made up his mind to make Gong Mingyi pay a painful price for framing him in the first place.

And the heroic move that strode down the city wall, and when he stood still under the corner of the wall, he beckoned to the herald not far away. The herald hurriedly took the fungus man who was resting on his shoulder, and rushed towards Yingzhao.

"Fungus people, pass a secret order to the Xuanjiao cultists and the sappers of each battalion on the island. As the herald stood in front of him, Ying Zhao looked up at the cloudy sun that had begun to set in the east, and ordered in a low voice: "Let them quickly prepare the tools and supplies for making traps, and then stand by in the various ports and beachheads where there are no fortifications." At dusk, as soon as it gets dark, they quickly create traps in these places, and then quietly remove all the sentry posts on the beachhead, replacing them with scarecrows. ”。

When Ying Zhao walked down the wall, he said the steps he thought of to improve Ji Kang's strategy one by one......

Flying sand and rocks, the wind roaring, and the boundless wind and sand raging, making the world dark. The thick black dust in the sky obscured the sky and the light of the cloudy sun, so that the surroundings were dull and chaotic.

After a short period of sunny days, the southern part of Huangquan began to blow yellow sand again, sweeping across the entire southern part of Huangquan. This storm was even stronger than the previous days. Many smaller stones rolled continuously in the wind, and the smaller plants and dead plants were directly lifted from the ground by the strong wind and fell down heavily.

In this bad weather, no ghost dares to go out. has long been obediently hiding at home, and no one wants to go outside to feel the ruthlessness and power of the sandstorm.

The strong and powerful wind whistled between heaven and earth, and the sharp whistling sound filled Xiao Shizhu's ears.

There was only one army, walking in the wind and sand against the strong winds, advancing from south to north. This kind of army, which is composed entirely of Huangquan ghost soldiers, is commanded by Xiao Shizhu.

The wind and sand blurred his vision, so that he could only vaguely see in the distance in front of him, about half a mile away, in the wind and sand, there was a not too high, lonely hill across the wilderness, and in the wind and sand, he could only vaguely see an outline.

That hill is the border pass of the ghost soldiers of Xudu, and it is also a pass that towers over the wilderness surrounded by yellow sand. It is the frontier in the territory of the ghost soldiers of Xudu, and it is only a hundred miles away from the pass where Ke Yun is stationed.

Not far behind this border pass, there is the Yellow Spring, which is full of green mountains and green waters, and the climate is suitable. If you want to break into Middle-earth, which is occupied by the ghost soldiers of the Xudu, this pass must be crossed.

However, it is precisely because it is located in the southern wilderness, and once a sandstorm comes, it can also envelop this pass. The ghost soldiers in the pass couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly, so Xiao Shizhu dared to blatantly lead the army to attack this place.

Sandstorms buried their marching tracks and footprints, and howling winds drowned out their sounds.

And it was expected that on a windy and sandy day, Xiao Shizhu, who must have set up a sentry outside the pass, also let Qin Yuan, who had a Dingfeng bead around his neck, lead the air cavalry, who is good at assassination, and suddenly approached the secret post near the pass. If you are not in a hurry, assassinate them one by one.

And the wind and sand also hid the sound of the actions of the Qin Yuan, and also covered up the blood and traces after the killing.

In this dark wind and sand, the pass and the ghost soldiers in the pass have become deaf and blind, so that the army led by Xiao Shizhu has approached the pass, but half a mile away, the army in the pass has not yet discovered their whereabouts.

"Don't think I'm crazy now. Under the storm, Xiao Shizhu turned his head to look at Ke Yun beside him, and saw that she had lost her previous worries, so she deliberately raised her voice decibel proudly, and said: "Although it is dangerous to move in the wind and sand, it can also quietly approach the enemy's garrison. ”。

Even if he said this as if he was shouting, the transmission of the sound was blocked by the wind and sand. That's why he dared to deliberately raise the decibel of his voice.

Ke Yun had nothing to say, only silence. It's not that Xiao Shizhu's words made her speechless, it's just that as Xiao Shizhu said, the wind and sand have brought them unknown dangers, and they have also brought them the best cover.

"My lord, the artillery distance is not enough, we have to advance another hundred zhang. The beast came forward to the national teacher Yingying, and said to Xiao Shizhu: "The flint cannon is in this position, and it can't hit the pass." ”。

For her, who is not weak in perception, even if she is blind, she will not lose her way in the wind and sand.

"Let's go first, and the Cassia Lady will guard you and the artillery. Xiao Shizhu said, pulled out the Moon Destroying Sword at his waist, and slammed it forward: "After three rounds of shelling, immediately rush to the pass and make peace with us." ”。

The cold light split through the dim wind and sand and streaked in front of Xiao Shizhu. The ghost soldiers behind him began to stride forward, heading towards the pass ahead.

"Qin Yuan. Turning his head to look at Qin Yuan on his shoulder, Xiao Shizhu said again: "Your air cavalry can launch an air attack, and according to the plan, first bombard the arrow tower turret in the pass with fire and thunder." ”。

Qin Yuan didn't speak, just nodded his head, spread his wings and flew high, flying away in the direction of the army.

The hollow cavalry in the wind and sand stepped on the hooves of the beast, flew up, and followed Qin Yuan straight to the pass.

Xiao Shizhu didn't say a word, and drove the beast forward. The mighty army rushed forward under the cover of wind and sand. The whistling wind overshadowed the rumbling hooves of the beast soul's galloping hooves.

The earth trembled slightly at their feet.

Only then did he gallop forward again, and the hill where the pass was located in front of him became clearer. Xiao Shizhu saw that the fire in the wind and sand exploded with the loud sound of thunder, the smoke rose, and the air raid on Qinyuan began.

Immediately afterwards, there was a continuous sound of cannons behind Xiao Shizhu. Crimson cannonballs screeched over their heads, cutting through brilliant arcs of fire, shooting forward with a wave of heat and heat.

In an instant, the firelight not far ahead was even brighter, and in the loud noise, Xiao Shizhu and the others all heard a scream that became clearer and clearer, whirling in the wind and sand.

Xiao Shizhu led the army, accelerated the pace of advance in the wind and sand, and killed forward against the wind. The smell of blood in the wind and sand is getting stronger and stronger, and the sound of fighting is becoming clearer and clearer.

Xiao Shizhu heard the panicked voice, even if he couldn't see the scene in the pass through the wind and sand, he could imagine the frightened expression of the ghost soldiers in Xudu, facing the ghost soldiers of Huangquan who suddenly fell from the sky from the wind and sand.

The distance was only a hundred zhang, and it only took a moment for Xiao Shizhu to lead the army to kill the pass. The fortifications built along the mountain are not really strong.

In the blink of an eye, it was blown up by Qin Yuan's military fire and thunder. In addition, the artillery led by Ying Ying behind him fired three rounds of artillery, and all the fortifications south of the pass had been destroyed. Under the thick smoke of the flames, the ghost soldiers stationed in it were panicked. The screams and curses of the mountains resounded in the wind and sand.

The ghost soldiers of Huangquan took arrows and drew their bows, aiming at the panicked ghost soldiers in the wind and sand. The next second later, the stormy arrows flew through the air, bringing bursts of gurgling sounds, and then fell into the pass one after another.

Thousands of drunken ghost soldiers screamed one after another, and before they could react, they fell in a pool of blood, their bodies convulsing continuously.

Xiao Shizhu, who took the lead, shouted: "Kill!", and in the earth-shaking sound of killing, he brandished the Moon Destroying Sword and slaughtered into the pass.

The ghost soldiers of Xudu never dreamed that the ghost soldiers of Huangquan would dare to launch an attack in this bad weather. I would not have imagined that this pass was about to be occupied.

Xiao Shizhu, who rushed into the pass, had a hideous face. The Moon Destroying Sword in his hand swung like the wind, and the cold light on the blade was like a point, splitting the enemy who dared to stand in front of him.

In the wind and sand, blood beads splashed, and the pungent blood and heart-rending screams enveloped the entire border pass.
