Wuyan Ancient City is located outside the Great Red Ancient Capital, is one of the ten large ancient cities under the control of the Yan family, and is also the core ancient city of the Yan family in the branch of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and the Marshal Yan Hongyun personally sits here.

On this day, the masters of the four major sects under the command of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, under the call of Yan Hongyun, gathered from their respective ancestral sects in the Marshal's Mansion in the Wuyan Ancient City.

The sect leader of the Yan Sword Sect was named Zhao Yunyan, this person was carrying a fiery red giant sword, his burly body was wearing heavy battle armor, his thick eyebrows and upside-down beard were all fiery red, and the whole thing looked like a burning flame.

Zhao Yunyan stood in front of Yan Hongyun, his scale-covered hands clasped into fists and saluted, and asked with a serious expression, "Dare to ask Marshal Yan, are we really going to encircle and suppress the Yin Sect that occupies Lianyan Mountain?" ”

Yan Hongyun was wearing a loose red gold cloud pattern robe, sitting upright like a mountain, gently took a sip of bitter spirit tea from the human race, glanced at Zhao Yunyan, and asked, "Well, what do you want to say from Sect Master Yunyan?" ”

Zhao Yunyan pondered for a moment, and said meaningfully, "Our Yan Sword Sect supported the Yan family, so we naturally obeyed Marshal Yan's orders, but this time, it was the order of the Red Country Lord..."

Yan Hongyun put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly, "The Yan family is also a member of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and it is incumbent on my Yan family to encircle and suppress the Yin Sect. ”

When he said this, Yan Hongyun had no expression on his face, he looked very indifferent, and he was obviously insincere.

Phantom Thousand Mirrors, the sect leader of the Phantom Mirror Xuanzong, opened his mouth and said, "Master of the Yan family, the Yin Sect is not easy to mess with, not to mention that this time we have to deal with the Wudang Dao Sect and the Wuyue Sword Alliance. ”

Seven Lian, the sect leader of the Three Spirit Pill Sect, reminded with a serious expression, "The Yin Sect invaded the Xuanguang Great Domain this time, and Yin Xian was backed by the human race behind it, so I think it is better to be cautious." ”

Yue Shan, the sect leader of the Lingyan War Sect, also echoed and said, "Master of the Yan family, the royal family of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom should belong to the Yan family, and it was the ancestor of the Chi family who played all the conspiracy to seize the supreme control of the ancient country, and we have always refused to accept this. ”

Zhao Yunyan said in a deep voice, "That's right, the lord of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom should be Marshal Yan. ”

In the ancient country of Chiyan, the five major sects such as the Great Sect of Alchemy Yan and the Illusory Mirror Xuanzong all belong to the forces controlled by the Yan family, and the masters of the five major sects are also the cronies supported by Yan Hongyun, and the sect leader of the Great Sect of Lianyan, Yan Mingjiao, is Yan Hongyun's own son.

It can be seen from this that the five major sects of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom are completely the power of Yan Hongyun, the head of the Yan family.

"Okay, don't talk about it, what to do, Marshal Ben knows it." The thoughts of the masters of the four major sects were nothing more than their reluctance to start a war with the Yin Sect, and this was also the worry in Yan Hongyun's heart.

In fact, Yan Hongyun didn't want to confront the Terran Yin Sect head-on, because it would bring great losses to the Yan family, which was not in line with the Yan family's interests in the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom.

As far as Yan Hongyun is concerned, what he wants to see is that the royal family Chi family and the Yin Sect are fighting to the death, and after the Yin Sect and the Red Royal Family are both defeated, the Yan family will take action to seize the maximum benefits.

However, the order of Chi Haochang, the lord of the Chiyan country, made the Yan family and the four major sects have to confront the Yin Sect in advance, which made Yan Hongyun dissatisfied, but he was helpless, because he couldn't go against the lord Chi Haochang in the yin.

As soon as he thought of this, Yan Hongyun's face became a little ugly.

At this time, Yan Mingqian reminded softly, "Father, the lord of Chihaochang asked my Yan family to lead the four major sects to participate in the war, and Yin Xian wanted to take the opportunity to weaken our Yan family. ”

The corners of Yan Hongyun's eyes twitched, he snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph, Chi Haochang is dreaming. ”

Everyone here is loyal to the Yan family, and they don't worry about the spread of information, so Yan Hongyun doesn't bother to hide his true thoughts in his heart, and he actually calls the name of the Lord of Chiyan without respect.

"Father, what are we going to do?" Yan Mingxuan bowed his head and asked for instructions.

Yan Hongyun smiled coldly, thinking about it, "Let the three major legions fight with the Yin Sect, we are not in a hurry." ”

"Not in a hurry?" Yan Mingqi is a little not too pale.

"Yes, take your time, we just need to contain the Wudang Dao Sect and the Wuyue Sword Alliance, there is no need to fight to the death with them." Yan Hongyun said meaningfully, "As for the Yin Sect, it will be handed over to the three major legions to deal with." ”

Yan Mingxi's eyes lit up, and he also smiled, "It's white, it's still my father." ”

"Marshal Yingyin." Not only Yan Mingqian smiled, but the masters of the four major sects, such as Phantom Thousand Mirror and Zhao Yunyan, were finally relieved, as long as they didn't go against the Yin Sect, they would be relieved.

As a result, the four major sects, including Marshal Yan Hongyun, Protector Marshal Yan Hongyun, Illusion Mirror Xuanzong and Lingyan Zhan Sect, who were supposed to go out with the army, stopped in the ancient city of Wuyan.

The strangest thing is that the elders and disciples of the four major sects have set off from their respective sect ancestral lands, but their destination is not the front line, but the Wuyan Ancient City.

For this problem, Chi Haochang, the lord of the Chiyan Kingdom, specially sent Lin Lirui, the prime minister of the ancient country, to the ancient city of Wuyan to negotiate with Yan Hongyun, and the result was that in order to prevent the sneak attack of the Yin Sect, the four major sects had to converge here first, and they could only set out when everything was ready.

This reason made the lord of the country Chi Haochang extremely dissatisfied, but he couldn't force Yan Hongyun to go on the expedition, and in desperation, he could only let the three major legions set off first.

In this way, the fifth, sixth, and seventh legions of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom set off from their respective stations, while the four major sects were slow to move in the Wuyan Ancient City.

……

Ten days later, on the vast Kolmu steppe, millions of Chiyan Fifth Army was slowly advancing, and dense battle flags were spread out on the ground, covering the mountains and rivers like a sea of fire.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, from far and near, it was the reconnaissance cavalry of the vanguard army returning from the front of the army, and he brought the latest battle report to the commander of the Fifth Army of Chiyan, "Commander, there is a large army pressing ahead. ”

On the bronze fire pattern chariot, the commander of the Fifth Army of Chiyan snorted lightly, "The people of the Yin Sect are so bold, quickly find out their specific identities." ”

Soon, a scout cavalry brought another new battle report, "Commander, here is the Yin Sect Five Elements Banner." ”

The body of the commander of the Fifth Legion of Chiyan was shocked, and he stood up from the chariot with a solemn expression, "Yin Sect Five Elements Banner, this is not easy to deal with, you immediately send an order, set up a formation on the spot, and wait and see what happens." ”

"No."

Under the order of the corps commander, the Chiyan Fifth Army suddenly stopped advancing and began to urgently arrange a defensive line in the Kolmu steppe.

Directly in front of the Chiyan Fifth Army, dense Yin Sect members gathered here, and the battle flags of the five colors representing the Five Elements Banner fluttered in the wind.

Looking at the reaction of the Fifth Army of Chiyan, Zhuang Zheng, the leader of the Ruijin Banner, smiled and said to Fan Yao, the right envoy of Time who was standing in front, "Right envoy, they really set up a defense line in the Kolmu Grassland. ”

Intercepting the Chiyan Fifth Army in the Kolmu Prairie was the strategy of Fan Yao, the right envoy of time, and he smiled with satisfaction at the performance of the Chiyan Fifth Army, "What is expected, give me an order, don't rush to attack, just confront them." ”

Zhuang Zheng nodded, and said confidently, "Yin Bai, how long can it be delayed!" ”

After researching, Fan Yao, the right envoy of time, found that the Fifth Legion of Chiyan was immortal and cautious, and he never took risks until he was absolutely sure.

Therefore, Fan Yao seized the weakness of the commander of the Fifth Army of Chiyan, and asked the Five Elements Banner of the Yin Sect to assemble in the Kormu Grassland, putting on a posture of going to a decisive battle, so that the commander of the Fifth Army of Chiyan had to order the layout of the defensive line, and the two sides formed a confrontation situation.

In this way, under the premise that the Yin Sect Five Elements Banner does not take the initiative to attack, the commander of the Fifth Legion of Chiyan will definitely be suspicious, and he has always been cautious, so he naturally does not dare to act rashly, which can buy Zhang Wuji's actions enough time.

………

……

In the eastern part of the ancient country of Chiyan, in the small city of Ando outside the ancient city of Anchuan, hundreds of thousands of elites of the Chiyan Sixth Army gathered here, and they were ready to recapture this small eastern city first.

It's just that before the commander of the Sixth Army of Chiyan could give the order to attack the city, news came from the small town of Ando, "Commander of the Legion, the left envoy of the Yin Sect, Yang Xiao, ordered someone to come and spread the word. ”

The commander of the Chiyan Sixth Legion frowned, "Spread the word, what kind of word?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that on the wall of Ando Town, there was a Yin Sect member of the Yuan Dan Realm shouting, "Listen, commander of the Sixth Army of Chiyan, your Third Army of Chiyan has more than 37,800 troops in our hands, if you don't want them to die, prepare their money to buy their lives." ”

The title of surrendering troops made the face of the commander of the Sixth Army of Chiyan look ugly, and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "Damn... How can there be so many troops in their hands. ”

On the city wall, the Yin Sect members were still chanting, "Also, the city lords of the ancient cities such as Qiyan, Moyun, and Yaskawa, we have also brought them, and their lives and deaths all depend on your Chiyan Sixth Army." ”

As soon as this news came out, the commander of the Sixth Army of Chiyan was silent instantly, and he didn't dare to make decisions at all.

If it was just those surrendered troops, the commander of the Sixth Legion of Chiyan could directly ignore it, but the life and death of the lords of the major ancient cities in the east was not something that he could ignore as a legion commander.

You must know that those who can become the masters of the major ancient cities in the east are all big names in the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and they all have the support of the great forces of the Ancient Kingdom behind them.

For example, the city lord who sits in the ancient city of Qiyan is the Yan family of the Wannian family, the city lord who controls the ancient city of Anchuan is the royal family, and the lord of the ancient city of Moyun and the marshal of the town country are in-laws... In short, those lords of the ancient city all had backgrounds that the commander of the Sixth Legion of Chiyan couldn't provoke.

Therefore, the commander of the Sixth Army of Chiyan fell into a deep embarrassing situation.

At this time, the deputy general of the Chiyan Sixth Army began to urge, "Commander, how should we respond, that is the lord of the major ancient cities, if we don't save them, I'm afraid the commander will be in big trouble." ”

"Damn, how can this be?" The commander of the Sixth Legion of Chiyan had a gloomy face, pointed at the adjutant general, and shouted angrily, "You go and tell the Yin Sect in person that General Ben wants to negotiate with their person in charge." ”

"Yes." The adjutant general took the order with satisfaction.

In the following time, the Chiyan Sixth Army began a difficult negotiation journey, and Yang Xiao's delaying strategy with hostages as the core allowed the commander of the Chiyan Sixth Army to spend every day in a thunderstorm.

At the same time, on the avenue in the distance, the white-eyed eagle king Yin Tianzheng personally led the iron horse to run wildly, "You all listen, this operation is mainly an attack, and no one can change the plan without authorization." ”

"Remember, you must fight quickly, and you must not dwell on them for too long."

Yaoxing, the altar leader of the Divine Snake Branch, replied loudly, "The Eagle King can rest assured, we are only responsible for destruction, and we will never fight. ”

The iron cavalry stepped across the mountains and rivers, the speed was very fast, and there was no figure in the blink of an eye, only in the fierce wind, Yin Tianzheng's voice lasted for a long time, "Well, using the method of attack and disturbance can not only delay the marching speed of the Chiyan Seventh Army, but also make them feel tired, so that when the decisive battle comes, we can wait for work."

Obviously, the same is to delay the enemy, and the method chosen by Yin Tianzheng, the white-eyed eagle king, is completely different from that of Fan Yao and Yang Xiao.

Yin Tianzheng, who advocated attack as the king, directly asked the five major altars of the Yin Sect, such as the Divine Snake, Qinglong, and Vermilion Bird, to each dispatch 3,000 elite iron cavalry who were good at fighting, and then he took this elite cavalry unit and began to attack the Chiyan Seventh Army.
