Like Zhenwu, the Wuji Hall is overgrown with weeds and extremely desolate.

The crowd walked through the Taoist temples that stretched for miles, and there was a feeling of going back in time.

It can be imagined that this large-scale Taoist temple was at the peak of incense back then, and presumably, there were at least thousands of superpowers who practiced among them.

In the Honghuang area, even if it is the largest sect of cultivating gods, there are not thousands, hundreds, and there are very few disciples, most of them are more than a dozen people, and most of them are fifty or sixty people, and the buildings they live in, that is, a main hall and a few tiled houses, like this kind of large-scale buildings that stretch for miles, are simply unheard of.

Everyone found that although no one had come to this temple for a long time, there was nothing of value, and it seemed that this place had been searched many times.

"Brother Zhou, we should have arrived at the place of hidden treasure described in the sheepskin map, how to find it?" Tianyun asked.

"I don't know."

Zhou Sen found a big stone, spread out the sheepskin map, and carefully measured it.

According to the description of the parchment map, the treasure is nearby, but there are dilapidated Taoist temples all around, and there is no clue at all.

After all, in that inhospitable and desolate place, it is easy to find the clues of the treasure place as long as it takes a little time, and in this Taoist temple, there are traces of human activities everywhere, and it is much more difficult to find the treasure place, because it is impossible to demolish all the buildings and houses......

……

Just when Zhou Sen and Han Zifei were racking their brains to find the hidden treasure on the sheepskin map, the war in the Han Empire was in full swing.

Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou Castle launched a large-scale military operation under the leadership of Tongtian Shenmouse.

When Zhou Sen left, he left a bag of tricks for the generals of Zhenshui Pass and Tongzhou City.

Attack.

Non-stop attack!

Except for Zhenshui Pass and Tongzhou City, the Han Empire only blindly counterattacked some cities around Orange Island, but did not occupy them.

Because of the capture of a large number of war horses of the Crusaders, Zhenshui Pass and Tongzhou City also have a large number of cavalry.

In addition to the cavalry who came and went like the wind, the most headache for the crusaders was the hundreds of monsters.

Above the Ice and Snow Wasteland, it is simply a paradise for youkai, who are not only hunting the Crusader scouts, but also hunting the Crusaders' black-winged Kunpeng on a large scale.

The official road between Zhenshui Pass and Tongzhou City has been completely opened, and then, through non-stop military operations, little by little encroached on the territory of Orange Island, many small towns were recovered by the Han army, and some Han people also began to join the vertical company battalion to cooperate with the military operations of the Han army.

The situation of the crusaders in Orange Island was in danger, because Zhou Sen killed more than 100,000 crusaders in Tongzhou City, which not only caused a spiritual blow to the crusaders, but also a heavier military blow, because now the Han Empire is dripping into ice in winter, and the crusaders' replenishment of troops has become the biggest problem.

Orange Island is currently facing a number of problems, among which the most troublesome is Shou.

The army of Orange Island was no longer able to organize a large-scale corps battle, but they had to intercept the crazy sneak attack of the Heavenly Rat.

The defenders of Orange Island are now in a hurry......

……

The Crusaders in Nest City didn't have a good time either.

When General Wu Yuan learned that Zhou Sen had recovered Tongzhou City, his keen military talent immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

At this time, the soldiers of the Han Empire had realized that the crusaders hated winter more than they did.

If you wait for this cold winter to carry out a large-scale counteroffensive, by that time, the Crusaders will also recover.

On a snowy night, General Wu Yuan personally led a large army to attack General Gore, and when the two armies were engaged in a bloody battle, a group of generals such as Shan Yu, Lu Tutu, Lu Axe, and Cai Ping, each led 50,000 cavalry, bypassed General Gore's defense line and went deep into the hinterland of the Han Empire.

If Zhou Sen's battle at Zhenshui Pass and Tongzhou City formed a turning point, then the battle of Wuchao City was a comprehensive counterattack by the Han Empire.

For this full-front counterattack, historians have a very high evaluation of General Wu Yuan, because General Wu Yuan did not even consider the safety of himself and the emperor, and devoted all his military strength to carry out this military operation.

It is no exaggeration to use "breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat" and "fighting against the water" to describe General Wuyuan's determination to this battle, because Wuchao City almost poured out, and more than 200,000 Hun cavalry and hundreds of thousands of Han cavalry and infantry were all thrown into this huge battle.

In the face of the all-out counterattack launched by the Han Empire, General Gore did not have the slightest power to counterattack, because, whether it was Shan Yu or Lu Axe, they were extremely fierce generals.

Hundreds of thousands of Han troops, all the way like a bamboo, swept the remnants of the clouds, just a week, to recover dozens of cities, and General Gore, in order to avoid being cut off by the Han army that went deep into the hinterland, decisively ended the tragic battle with General Wuyuan, lost his armor all the way, and fled to Baisha City.

Baisha City, six hundred miles away from Wuchao City.

The Han army, which was overwhelming all the way, fought until Baisha City, and then stopped, because, at this time, the battle line of the Han Empire was too long, the supply line was too long, and the occupied cities also needed to be consolidated.

In this battle, the Han army raised its eyebrows, not only killing the prestige of General Gore, but also capturing hundreds of miles of strategic depth for Wuchao City.

General Wu Yuan, who was seriously injured and had not recovered, led the army to kill all the way to Baisha City, and formed a stalemate with General Gore again, but unlike before, this time, it was not General Wu Yuan who defended the city, but became General Gore.

General Wu Yuan did not storm Baisha City, because Baisha City is a famous city through the ages, not only the city walls are impregnable, but the crusaders entrenched in it also exceeded 200,000.

General Wu Yuan, who is deeply aware of the way of using troops, naturally knows that it is almost impossible to capture Baisha City in a short time, even if he captures Baisha City, it will be a defeat for both sides, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The most important thing is that the Han army can no longer defeat the battle, so every decision made by General Wuyuan now is walking on thin ice!

This time, General Wu Yuan adopted the tactics of the Crusaders - encircling the point to send reinforcements!

The most ingenious thing about encirclement and reinforcement is that the enemy surrounding a town uses it as bait to attract enemy reinforcements from other places, and its real purpose is to fight the reinforcing enemy and achieve the purpose of annihilating the reinforcement enemy.

General Wu Yuan's focus on encircling and sending reinforcements is to send reinforcements, so the focus of troop deployment is the strength of reinforcements, and it is the auxiliary forces that surround Baisha City.

The tactics of encircling and sending reinforcements dealt a heavy blow to the Crusaders near Baisha City, and every day, the number of Crusaders killed in battle was counted in thousands, and the morale of the Crusaders in Baisha City was low......

……

"General, although the cold winter of the Han Empire is only more than a month, but the early spring after the cold winter is still cold, and the ice and snow are melting, the road is muddy, this Baisha City, although it is indestructible, but the food and grass are insufficient, and the surrounding towns have also been broken by the Han Dynasty one by one, within a month, this Baisha City, I am afraid that it will become a lonely city, and besides, Orange Island has been severely damaged by Zhou Sen, and the reinforcements are ......" A soldier looked at General Gore with a cold face, and cautiously proposed.

"It's okay, our reinforcements are coming!" A strange smile appeared on General Gore's face.

"Reinforcements?" The generals looked at each other.

"Prince Charles is here."

"Ah......h

All the generals were shocked, and their bodies trembled inexplicably.

Prince Charles is the most brilliant general in the history of the Kingdom of Heaven, and most importantly, he is still alive!

In the conquest of the kingdom of heaven to open up the territory and divide the land, Prince Charles is the most prominent general, who has been fighting on the battlefield for more than 300 years, and the countries he has conquered, as long as he hears that he is leading troops to fight, he will be frightened.

Historical Records? It is recorded in the Kingdom of Heaven: All countries dare not fight in Heaven, and a note is added at the end, just because there is General Charles in Heaven!

A general has reached such a point, which is rare in the history of warfare. He has made immortal contributions to the great cause of the southern and northern wars of the Heavenly Kingdom, and his achievements have created the highest practical combat model of the Heavenly War Art - the god of war - Prince Charles!

Prince Charles led his troops into countless battles throughout his life, annihilating more than 4 million imperial troops and capturing more than 500 cities.

The most amazing thing is that in those war-torn years, Prince Charles never lost a battle in his life, and various historical sources show that he was indeed never defeated, and often won more with less, he was both a superb tactician and a clever strategist. The scale of the wars he commanded, the brutality of the battles, few in later generations can compare them!

If General Wu Yuan is the pillar of the Han Empire, then there is no doubt that Prince Charles is the pillar of the Kingdom of Heaven.

General Wu Yuan is a legend in the Han Empire, but compared with Prince Charles, he is not in the same plane at all, because, General Wu Yuan has made countless proud achievements in his life, but he has also suffered countless defeats, while Prince Charles is victorious and invincible......

Just like General Wu Yuan's status in the Han Empire, Prince Charles also has a supreme position in the Kingdom of Heaven, including General Gore, who is his protégé.

Prince Charles also has a nickname - the Ghost King.

The title of the Ghost King, in addition to his lifespan of hundreds of years, is also related to his ability to kill enemies.

Prince Charles's combat characteristics are threefold:

The first is the idea of annihilation warfare, which does not take the siege of cities and land as the only goal, but takes the annihilation of the enemy's living forces as the main purpose, and is good at field attacks, and seeks annihilation in battle, which is the most prominent characteristic of Prince Charles. He was an unparalleled commander in the history of the Heavenly War who used the tactics of encirclement and annihilation, and he was also one of the military commanders in the history of the Heavenly War who was very good at fighting the war of annihilation.

Second, in order to achieve the goal of annihilation, the pursuit war is emphasized, and the enemy is pursued and attacked with all its might.

The third is to focus on the construction of fortifications in field warfare, first luring the enemy troops to break away from the fortified positions, and then building fortifications to block the enemy in the area where the enemy is expected to be annihilated, and to prevent him from breaking through. This kind of operational guiding ideology, which uses fortifications as an offensive auxiliary means, is unprecedented in the history of warfare in the Kingdom of Heaven.

In the countries that Prince Charles fought in, there would be a serious imbalance between men and women, because Prince Charles's victories were based on the slaughter of cities.

It is said that in many villages with hundreds of people, there are only a handful of young and middle-aged people......

……

Zhou Sen didn't know that there was a real undefeated god of war who was rushing to the Han Empire to take over the command of the crusaders.

According to the research of historians of the Han Empire, Zhou Sen and Prince Charles have a lot in common, for example, several battles in Tongzhou City were aimed at annihilating the enemy's living forces, and the Battle of Binghe was even more of a weak victory over the strong, bringing the field fortifications to the extreme......

Zhou Sen was not worried about the war in the Han Empire, because it was still winter, and although spring was about to bloom, it was very difficult for the Crusaders to conquer Wuchao City and Zhenshui Pass in a short time.

Zhou Sen believed that by the time the Crusaders launched a counterattack, he had already rescued the Nine Heavens Xuannu.

The sheepskin map was crudely made, and there were almost no details to speak of except for pointing out a general direction, and if it weren't for Zhou Sen learning some knowledge from the earth, he might not even be able to find Huiji Mountain.

Now, Zhou Sen and Han Zifei are a group of superpowers, lost in one building after another.

Half a month has passed, and everyone has searched the huge building several times, but there is still no progress.

"We can't find it, what should we do?" Tianyun sat on the steps with a depressed face. In the past half a month, I have been rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the building, which has made the original bright and compelling Tianyun become disgraced and embarrassed.

"There's no way to find it like this."

Han Zifei's eyes fell on Zhou Sen, and now, everyone is looking at Zhou Sen.

Zhou Sen also sat on the steps, glanced at the sky, frowned, and spread the sheepskin map in his arms on the ground,

The only clue is the parchment map, but in addition to the zigzag mountain lines, this parchment map is a red dot to the treasure spot.

A red dot on the map can reach hundreds of miles, even if it is limited to this Huiji Mountain, it is impossible to find out the specific location of the red dot......

……

Could it be that this temple is a place of hidden treasures?

In fact, everyone has long thought of this possibility, but the problem is that there are countless halls of this Taoist temple, and there are many side rooms, spreading for miles, if there is any treasure hidden in it, it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find out.

"Brother Zhou, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Zhou Sen was silent, Tianyun asked curiously.

"I'm wondering what the people who made this map are trying to do." Zhou Sen exhaled a long breath, picked up the sheepskin map with both hands, and faced the sun, but still did not find it, through the strong sunlight, he could still only see those zigzag mountain lines.

"Could it be that someone is bored with such a sheepskin map?" Tianyun touched his nose and said.

"This possibility is very small, first of all, the person who made this sheepskin map must have known about Huiji Mountain, and also knew about this Taoist temple that stretches for several miles, otherwise, it would be impossible to draw such a map." Zhou Sen shook his head and said, "The superpowers who can reach this Huiji Mountain will never be boring enough to make a fake sheepskin map. ”

"Then why can't we find it?" Huang Feilong asked.

"The problem is that on this sheepskin map, Dafan, making this kind of map, there will be all kinds of scruples, for example, I am worried that superpowers like you will follow the map to find treasure after discovering this map, so the people who make the map will find ways to increase some difficulty, or do some tricks, so that people can't understand and go astray...... By the way, how did you get this parchment map? ”

"When I was very young...... At that time, I was only nine years old, once I went to play by the stream, and found that there was a sheepskin map floating in the water, so I picked it up and put it on the rock to dry, it was fun at first, but then I forgot about it, put it in the study, and put it for several years, and recently I was bored, so I turned it out......"

"Wait, you said this parchment map was found in a stream?" Zhou Sen's spirit was lifted.

"Yes......"

"Isn't the parchment map afraid of water? Even if the parchment map is specially treated to make it waterproof, why haven't the lines on the map been washed away, or have become foggy? ”

"Ah...... yes, why didn't I think of that at the time? But...... What does this have to do with maps? Tianyun said with a puzzled expression.

"This is very important, it shows that this sheepskin map is not just a map, at least, it is not afraid of flooding, and even fire......

"Don't be afraid of fire!"

Han Zifei and a group of superpowers looked at each other.

"This map doesn't really do anything to us now, and each of us can draw this map, so we can start with this map, for example, by flooding, or by burning it, or by some other means."

After Zhou Sen put forward his idea, immediately, everyone ran to an ancient well and drowned the sheepskin map in the water, unfortunately, the sheepskin map did not show anything abnormal in the water, but those lines were much clearer.

Fire!

They set up bonfires again.

In order to avoid damaging the parchment map in the first place, everyone found an iron frame and slowly baked the parchment map to see what changes were made to the parchment map.

When the parchment map approached the flames, a shocking scene appeared, the raging flames, as if suppressed by a strange force, parted like a tide, and could not get close to the parchment map at all.

"It's not a sheepskin map."

"What is it?"

"This is the skin of the candle dragon, which is invulnerable to fire and water."

Zhou Sen's face showed a hint of heart, at the beginning, when he was training in the dark forest, he had seen the power of the "non-extinguishing essence" spewed out by the candle dragon.

"Candle Dragon ......"

Everyone looked dazed, obviously, they didn't know about the demon beast Candle Dragon.

"It's a very powerful demon beast, the flame that spews out is called the fire extinguishing essence, commonly known as the wind fire, as long as it is stained, it will not be extinguished, it will not spread, it can burn for several months, as long as it is stained a little, it will burn the blood in the body, and slowly turn into a skinny skeleton......"

"The Evil God"

"So powerful?" Everyone's eyes fell on the map in unison, and they subconsciously took a step back.

"Yes, it's very powerful, if you encounter this kind of demon beast in the future, you must be careful, as long as you don't get the fire essence, it will be a situation of endless death......"

"Brother Zhou, look at the ...... in the sky"

Suddenly, Tianyun exclaimed, everyone followed Tianyun's gaze to the sky, only to see in the air, the flames in the sky are like huge waves, in the flames, there is a landscape painting that is swaying, in the painting, is a magnificent Taoist temple......
