Chapter 151: Dawn Assassination
As the warriors of the Hall of Reincarnation and the Qin army continued to advance, Qin Yang also received more news one after another. Now the casualty figures of the princes' coalition forces are basically clear.
A total of 1,100 soul cultivators, about 600 died;
In total, there are more than 10,000 True Yuan Realm warriors, and more than 7,000 have died!
It hurts to the point of physical pain.
Moreover, the hundreds of cities of the Zhao family that they occupied were also lost one after another at this time, and in the end only about thirty remained. Before the steamed buns in hand were hot, they returned them with both hands again.
Although in this battle, the coalition army also consumed two hundred soul cultivators of the Zhao family and more than two thousand True Yuan Realm soldiers. However, there was no doubt that the opponent still won the whole game.
The reason for this is because of the seven hundred demon clans that suddenly appeared!
These demon races are mainly the Demon Bear Clan, about 400 people, and the rest of the small races attached to the Demon Bear Clan, about 300 people. These guys have all reached the combat power equivalent to the soul cultivation of the human race, and once they are beasts, they are even more unstoppable.
Although there were only about 700 people, their overall combat strength was more ferocious than that of tens of thousands of True Yuan Realm warriors. The battlefield of the Qianyuan world is always the stage of the strong, and the lower the warrior, the more cannon fodder.
Moreover, in this battle, the seven hundred demon clans only lost less than a hundred. It is conceivable that on the battlefield, the sudden appearance of a large group of monsters after the transformation of the beast will definitely make the princes and coalition forces feel desperate.
However, judging from the current situation, the Zhao family and the demon clan alliance have also suffered certain losses, and if they divide their troops several times, it is just a good opportunity for Qin Yang to attack. Qin Yang only needs to see the enemy attack all the way, so that he can ensure that he has enough superior forces.
"I just don't know what happened to the teacher now. Qin Yang pondered, "If she has already succeeded, she should come over to join me." ”
Qin Yang knew that once he entered the hinterland of the Zhao family too deeply, the ** array he had put out at the beginning would not have much effect. Now, he is still at the border of the Zhao family's fiefdom with the "fake Yin Yan", which should be when Duguce and the others are more relaxed.
What Qin Yang didn't know was that when it was dark in the early hours of this morning, Yin Yan had already made a move.
......
The northern part of the Zhao fiefdom, the capital of Handcheng.
This majestic city with the style of the Northern Regions was once the strongest pass in northern Kyushu to resist the demon clan. The demon clan has failed to overcome it in previous attacks, so it can only bypass Hancheng and go all the way down. As a result, this Hancheng has become a nail in the back of the demon clan's invading army, and it can be bitten hard from behind at any time - provided that the Zhao family is willing to fight. If they are unwilling to fight, the Zhao family can also let the demon army go, and even let the demon army attack near the royal city when it is the most ruthless.
Whether to fight or not depends on the mood of the head of the Zhao family and whether it is beneficial to the Zhao family. As for the so-called responsibility to defend the land and be loyal to the monarch and protect the country, it is just empty talk.
And now, this majestic city is not to mention any defense against the demon clan. Because the army of the demon clan is even regarded as a guest of honor in the city.
Although Zhao Lingwu already called himself "King Zhao", a "pseudo-king" like him was obviously not enough weight, so that the generals of the demon clan did not respect him very much. If it weren't for the fact that there were still three Sacred Domain powerhouses living in this Han City, I am afraid that the demon clan army would make this place very jumpy.
Of course, even now it can be called a smoky miasma. The warriors of the demon clan rampaged unscrupulously in Handcheng, "taking" things when they saw them, eating some domestic animals when they encountered them, and even eating raw dogs and sheep barbaricly.
Of course, the most resentful thing is that these guys like bear sunspots flirt with women when they see them. Some simply burst out of the primitive beastliness, and dared to pounce on the woman on the side of the road in broad daylight, and arched on the ground......
Wild.
Zhao Lingwu lodged a solemn protest against this, but Xiong Arrogant, the commander of the Xiong Clan, only perfunctorily reprimanded the offending sergeant and finished the matter. Don't expect these brute guys to pay attention to any discipline, impossible.
In the end, Zhao Lingwu could only let the people complain, but there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, since yesterday, these soldiers of the demon clan have gotten out and gone to help the Zhao family's army to counterattack the alliance of the Great Xia princes. For this reason, Zhao Lingwu was really relaxed, and he was even thinking about whether to let these blind bears into the city once the war situation eased, or to send them out of the country directly, and go back where they came from.
No, as soon as it was dawn in the early morning, Zhao Lingwu was already thinking about these things on his desk.
"Why should my father be concerned about such little things? Zhao Xi said coldly, "The victims are nothing more than some lowly flat-headed people, and they can't offend the allies of the demon clan for their sake." ”
His brother Zhao Yao also smiled disdainfully: "Even if you lose some property, even if you are ruined by some women, it is just a small price that is not enough to worry about." ”
Zhao Lingwu's face was not good: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense." Go, invite a few sages to the palace to discuss the next step of the battle. Now that the armies of the Great Xia royal family and the Qin family have entered the border of my Zhao family, Yin Yan and Hun Tianhou may be arriving soon, and the three Sacred Domain powerhouses on our side are probably also worried about this matter. The three sages should not eat in their respective residences, but prepare breakfast in the palace and talk while eating. ”
It can be said that Zhao Lingwu still attached great importance to the concept of time during the war. Although he is a heinous person, he also has many qualities that a commander should have, otherwise he would not have become the most warlike prince-level commander under the Qin government.
As for what he often calls "in the palace", it is because he has now established himself as a king. Since he is the king, the place where he originally lived was renamed "Palace", even if it was not expanded brick by brick in the future.
Zhao Yao and Zhao Xi responded and went to invite in person, this was to show respect for the three Sacred Domain powerhouses.
Zhao Xi went to invite the Kaiyang Sword Saint, while Zhao Yao went to invite Duguce and Xia Lie, because the two lived on the same street. Since Duguce defected here, Zhao Lingwu has specially set aside a very high-standard mansion for Duguce to live in, and it is next to Xia Lie's residence.
At this time, Duguce still looked like a hanged ghost, but his expression seemed to be more and more cold. Ever since he learned that his son Dugu Wuji had been thrown into the nest of carrion ants, his face has always been like this. He guessed that his son would die, but he didn't expect it to die so miserably, and he didn't expect Yin Yan to be so ruthless.
After going out, he, Xia Lie, and Zhao Yao rode side by side on the avenue of Hancheng. In the morning, the cold wind in the northern region is still so cold, and the people who blow it are full of energy.
Hearing that Zhao Lingwu invited them to deal with Yin Yan and Hun Tianhou, Dugu Ce's heart was cloudy again. The word Yin Yan already made him feel indignant that he couldn't sleep well.
"Yin Yan......" Duguce gritted his teeth and roared.
Xia Lie smiled on the side: "Brother Dugu, according to your understanding of Yin Yan, if she makes trouble with us, when will she arrive at the earliest." ”
Dugu Ce: "According to the information I have discovered, she has been disguised as a white flag battalion soldier beside Qin Yang, hmph, this trick." I've been operating in the Reincarnation Hall for decades, and I don't even have this intelligence ability? Before she could get out of the Reincarnation Mountain Domain, someone reported to me. ”
Zhao Yao said with a smile: "That's right, after being reminded by Dugu Shibo, the secret agents we planted in Beicangcheng also discovered that there was a mysterious woman beside Qin Yang. At least last night, she and Qin Yang were still in Beicangcheng. ”
Xia Lie nodded and said, "But, you must also strengthen your vigilance." From Beicangcheng to here, it takes less than a day to ride the fire dragon horse, and be careful of her sneak attack. ”
Duguce sneered: "It's enough to come tonight, but I think tomorrow will be the most dangerous time in the early morning." Yin Yan, this girl, likes to start before dawn when it is easiest to let down her vigilance. I've worked with her for many years, and I've studied her to the core. ”
Xia Lie said with a smile: "I would like to see how capable Yin Yan is." The paging is amazing, is it really possible to deal with so many of us at the same time? As long as Yin Yan dares to come, she will definitely not be able to come back!"
Zhao Yao suddenly laughed: "With Dugu Shibo here, even if we deal with Yin Yan, we are a little more sure." Not only because of Shibo's heavenly cultivation, but more importantly, because of her understanding. Coupled with Xia Shibo and the profound attainments of the Kaiyang Sage, even if Yin Yan comes, he will definitely die!"
This sycophant shot well, not only filmed Duguce, but also filmed Xia Lie.
However, it was not the right time.
Just before Zhao Yao's words fell, a terrifying sword aura erupted without warning, stabbing Duguce's throat!
