In the game, the Republic of China plane.

Five months passed in the blink of an eye, and at this time, Chu He had further mastered the three second-order formations, and had also refined three sets of formation flags.

However, the array flag is still only a first-order supreme magic weapon, and if you want to advance to the second-order magic weapon level, you still need some time to recuperate.

But the second-order array mage was already a matter of course.

Immediately, he chose to go offline.

Early in the morning, in the main hall of the Demon Hunting Hall, Chu He opened his eyes.

After washing, he returned to the bedroom, took a bear soul pill, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, and began to practice the Golden Elephant Gong, washing the bone marrow with the power of qi and blood.

Half an hour later, Chu He slowly finished his work, opened his eyes, and checked the attribute table.

Primal Completion (Mastery: 2001/5000)

One Bear Soul Pill has increased by 2,000 proficiency points, and it is estimated that only twenty or thirty Bear Soul Pills will be able to refine the marrow to perfection.

Immediately, the chef prepared the other two bear paws.

The chef is skilled, and the bear's paw tastes great.

After Chu He finished eating the bear's paws, the heat in his body rose, and he returned to the bedroom, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, and practiced the Golden Elephant Gong.

Half an hour later, he slowly regained his skills, and his proficiency increased by nearly 2,000 points again.

At this time, Chu He took out a bear soul pill again, refined it, and finally broke through to the marrow refining Xiaocheng (proficiency 1000/15000).

After breaking through to the realm of small marrow refining, Chu He's bone marrow cells have been strengthened, the hematopoietic ability has been enhanced, the speed of qi and blood derivation has been greatly increased, and the body's recovery ability has been enhanced.

Immediately, he began to practice the Tai Chi True Sutra, dividing the Tai Chi True Qi into two true qi, Tai Yin and Pure Yang, and refining the meridians.

……

At noon, the sun was scorching.

Chu He slowly collected his strength and prepared to eat.

At this time, a disciple of the Demon Hunting Hall hurriedly came, hugged his fists and said: "Master Qiyu Hall, the reconnaissance cavalry in front has come to report, there is an army with a red scarf wrapped around its head from twenty miles outside the South City Gate, it should be the Red Lotus Army from Qingtian County." ”

The so-called scouts are the scouts specially trained by the Chu River, each with a horse, roaming around the county seat, specifically monitoring the Red Lotus Army.

When Chu He heard this, his face became solemn. He also collected information about the Red Lotus Army during this time, and knew that now the Red Lotus Army in Qingyang County had captured six counties, and its strength had swelled dramatically, and there were already millions of troops!

Therefore, he quickly sent someone to inform the Huichun Hall, the Baihe Gang and the county government of the news, and ordered the three major captains to lead three thousand Xiangyong to assemble at the West City Gate.

Immediately, Chu He recalled all the disciples who were hunting in Daqingshan and asked them to prepare rolling stones, sassal wood, and other materials for defending the city.

Then, he let the deputy hall master Xiong Kaishan and the three elders Wei Qing, Wang Yaowu, and Chen Shaohua sit in the main hall, and he personally led Zhao Hu, Qian Zhixiong, Song Mingyang and other three elders to the West City Gate to supervise the battle.

At the same time, the Huichun Hall, the Baihe Gang, and the county government that received the news also began to actively prepare for the war, and according to the experience of the last time, they each stationed a city wall.

……

An hour later, the South City Gate was five miles away.

The 100,000 Red Lotus Army began to set up camp, and after resting for half an hour, the troops divided into three routes and attacked the city from the east, west, and north of Qingshan County.

More than a quarter of an hour later, above the West City Gate, Chu He caressed the female wall, looking into the distance, only to see a flag covering the sky in the distance, a red color, and only 20,000 or 30,000 people and horses.

Led by the Red Lotus Army, a middle-aged general dressed in red armor rode a tall horse, holding a glaive knife, looking at the city gate in the distance, looking at the Chu River, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a cruel smile.

The Red Armor General is named Deng Feng, as a Red Lotus Army general who has risen from the bottom, what he hates most is those people who are high above, and only by stepping on them all to the soles of his feet can he feel the pleasure!

The corners of Chu He's mouth also raised slightly, because he sensed the depth of this Red Lotus Army general, it was only the level of one or two levels of Qi Refining Realm, and he could kill him in less than three moves.

This is stable!

However, Deng Feng turned out to be out of common sense, and instead of calling for a heads-up, he sent 3,000 troops and began to attack the city.

At this time, there were only 1,500 troops above the city gates, 500 each of swords, shields, archers, and spearmen.

Because Chu He has to leave half of the troops to replace, only by taking turns to rest, can the soldiers maintain their combat strength.

Five hundred archers bent their bows and arrows, and fired a volley, and the arrows rained out, and in an instant a large area was reached, at least two or three hundred.

Although the training time is not long, and the archery skills of the archers are limited, the shooting efficiency of this kind of shooting with wide coverage is still good.

In particular, the strength of this bow and arrow is even more amazing, and the middle one is not dead but also seriously injured.

Because the cultivation of these archers is close to the perfection of refining tendons, and they have a thousand catties of arm strength.

This is still thanks to the demon beast internal organs and demon beast bones provided by Chu He, which greatly replenishes the essence qi and makes their body refining and cultivation go further.

After a few moments, the Red Lotus soldiers who had walked to the city wall began to climb up the ladder.

At this time, one by one, the sword and shield soldiers put down their weapons, grabbed the rolling stones and sassal wood, and smashed them down.

The rolling stones and sassal trees smashed by thousands of catties were amazing, and many Red Lotus Army soldiers were smashed into a blur of flesh and blood, fell to the ground, and even the rushing car was smashed.

But the other Red Lotus soldiers are still attacking, because there is a team of warlords behind them, and if they don't enter, they will die!

The county seat was three feet high, and by the time they climbed the city wall, more than half of it had been damaged.

And they were some farmers after all, facing the elite soldiers carefully trained by Chu He, plus Huang Xu, Chen Wei, Zhao Hu, Qian Zhixiong, Song Mingyang and other five major Blood Condensation Realm martial artists, it was almost a one-sided slaughter.

A moment later, a member of the Red Lotus Army of the Blood Condensation Realm ascended the city wall, and before he could reach his majesty, a Soul Snatching Divine Needle shot at him, shooting into his eyebrows, killing him instantly.

Immediately, Chu He withdrew the medium-grade magic weapon-level Soul Snatching Divine Needle, and stood with his hands in his hands again, and the current situation did not need him to make a move.

A quarter of an hour later, more than half of the 3,000 Red Lotus Army was lost, and Deng Feng ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

And above the city gate, except for a dozen wounded soldiers under Chu He's command, not a single soldier died!

At this time, Chu He walked over and used his pure yang true qi to quickly repair their injuries.

However, Deng Feng once again sent a low-level general from the Blood Condensation Realm to lead the three thousand Red Lotus Army to attack the city.

But in less than a quarter of an hour, the three thousand Red Lotus Army lost more than half again, and Deng Feng had to retreat.

Every time a city is attacked, the reason why it retreats when it is half dead is because if it does not give the soldiers hope of survival, it will lead to a mutiny among the soldiers.

At this time, Deng Feng also saw that although the number of soldiers defending the city was small, they were extremely elite and a difficult target.

But he did not give up, for he had 20,000 men and horses, and lost 3,000, and 17,000. In particular, the elite of the five thousand headquarters that he had carefully trained did not move.

Therefore, Deng Feng launched an offensive again.

After four successive assaults, he lost another 3,000 troops, but the 1,500 troops of the Chu River also became exhausted.

After all, the physical drain of combat is significant.

Chu He replaced the 1,500 reserve troops and let the tired soldiers go down the city wall to rest and replenish food and water.

At this time, Deng Feng was preparing to continue the attack, and when he saw this scene, his heart suddenly felt cold, he was going to exhaust the physical strength of the defenders, but the other party still had a fresh army.

Continuing to attack the city, it is likely that he will suffer heavy losses, and it will be difficult to capture the city, so he has to order the withdrawal of his troops.
