Chapter 254: Soldiers are in Houting County

Standing alone on the slightly dilapidated city gate, the ears of the barbarian king were the cheers of the holy people.

The capture of this giant city that had blocked the Holy Clan's southward footsteps for thousands of years made all the Holy Clan's people almost crazy.

Countless people chanted his name, and his name resounded throughout the Northern Blockade.

But there was no joy on the face of the barbarian king, and he looked at the endless Great Yan military camp in the distance with an expressionless face.

The violent wind and snow could not hinder his vision, and he could even see the lines of the stone bricks on the improvised camp.

"Squeak—"

"Squeak—"

The footsteps of stepping on the snow suddenly came, and a low and hoarse voice sounded on the side of the barbarian king, with a smile:

"Won't you celebrate, King? Now many of our holy people have put you alongside the ancestral gods. ”

The Barbarian King looked back:

"Zaye, the ancestral god does not exist, the so-called ancestral god is just a fictitious sustenance made up by our holy clan in that desperate snowfield."

“.” Zaye's hideous face, which was originally smiling, froze when he heard this.

The barbarian king retracted his gaze and continued to look at the Great Yan camp outside the city, his voice without emotion:

"What is the matter with you coming to this king?"

As a person who grew up with the barbarian king, Zaye saw that the other party's heart was very serious, restrained his smile, and reported in a solemn voice:

"The various departments of the Holy Clan have taken over this northern sealing city, and the gains and losses have been counted by the Great Sacrifice, please take a look."

The barbarian king took it easily, and he didn't look at it, and directly ordered:

"If there is nothing else, Zaye, you can go down first, and leave this king alone for a while."

Seeing this, Zaye hurriedly said in a deep voice:

"There is one more thing, king."

"Say."

"Da Yan sent an envoy to see you."

“.”

The barbarian king was silent for a moment, and finally a touch of relief finally appeared in his blue eyes:

"Bring him here."

The cold wind is like a knife, and it hurts to stab people in the face.

Wrapped in a thick coat, Xu Yuan looked at the wind and snow outside the cave, and the military briefing in his hand suddenly ignited with blood and turned into a handful of ashes.

Lou Ji gave him the latest briefing,

The city was closed in the north and completely fell, and Wu Yuan took a few remnants of the army north to Houting County.

Looking out from the cave, a waterfall-like blizzard has buried everything in the wilderness beneath the endless white.

The cave where Xu Yuan and Lou Ji are now located is the contact point established by the Black Scale Guard in the snowfield, which can also be said to be a safe house.

It is equipped with a soul avoidance array to prevent the detection of the soul, as well as a communication wafer for long-distance communication.

The north has been at war for many years, and the success or failure of a war depends largely on the amount of information obtained by both sides.

The establishment of this kind of contact point can enable scouts or high-level cultivators to report the detected enemy situation to the rear battalion at the first time.

Of course, this is not unique to the Blackscales, as many forces have built caves or basements in the snowfields of the North.

It's a pity that most of these contact points were destroyed the last time the barbarians went south.

It's not that the barbarians' hands and eyes are all over the sky and they can accurately find out the location of these contact points in the vast snowfield, but simply because the parties of the Great Yan are blackmailing each other and accurately reporting points to the barbarians.

I heard Lou Ji say that they had nearly ten contact points in the snowfield, but now there are only two left.

One is in the mountains next to the Beifeng Plain, and the other is where Xu Yuan and the others are now, in the mountains of a hundred miles northeast of Houting County.

"Long days."

With a light call, Xu Yuan looked back when he heard this.

A plump shadow swayed from the gloom in the cave, swaying her waist and buttocks, and walked out slowly, and laughed softly:

"Wu Yuan, that little girl doesn't seem to have touched what you left behind."

Xu Yuan came back to his senses when he heard this, looked at Lou Ji and smiled slightly:

"Although a lot of information is missing, Li Qingyan is a smart woman, and she should be able to see something."

Lou Ji heard his praise for her, and smiled:

"It seems that these days, Chang Tianling and her are getting along quite happily?"

Xu Yuan subconsciously thought of the bad woman's sultry methods, chuckled and shook his head:

"It's okay, a very powerful woman."

After a pause,

Xu Yuan glanced at the darkness behind Lou Ji and asked:

"Sister, has the sect reached an agreement with the barbarians?"

“.”

After a moment of silence, Lou Ji clasped her hands in front of her chest, raised a slender index finger and tapped her white chin, and a pair of turquoise pupils glowed with a ghostly light like a snake letter:

"Well, an agreement should have been reached, but the two sides don't have a basis for mutual trust, and they're still frozen over there."

"The basis of mutual trust?"

Xu Yuan muttered, figuring out the cause and effect in his heart, and was a little speechless.

Even if the sect wanted to let the barbarians go north, the barbarian king did not dare to trust the sect.

The Barbarian King probably knew the purpose of the sect very well, and he also knew that the sect didn't want the barbarian strength to be too weak, but this was a matter of losing his head, and it was the head of most of the battleable soldiers of the whole clan.

The barbarian king didn't know that the sect didn't have Yun Qi bullets.

In the event that when they make a detour, the sect does not talk about martial arts and suddenly throws a 'cloud qi bomb', then all the snow clouds will be dispersed, and the barbarian side must be forced to fight a field decisive battle with the sect.

And fight a decisive battle in the field with the elite of Great Yan.

Groan a little,

Xu Yuan exhaled a breath of white mist, looked at Lou Ji and asked:

"Sister, if you want to rush from Beifeng to Dali Mountain, how long will it take?"

Lou Ji didn't think about it, and went back directly:

"If you don't cover your breath, you can travel for half a day with all your might, but if you want to cover your breath, it will take at least two days, or even longer."

"Two days?"

Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and muttered, and then smiled: "It has been almost five days since the barbarian soldiers came down to the city, and that barbarian alien king should know very well that he has not enough time left, and he must make a choice as soon as possible." ”

Lou Ji looked at Xu Yuan with a smile in her eyes when she heard this, and then said:

"Oh? What are the options? ”

Xu Yuan exhaled a mouthful of white mist with a smile and looked at the snow outside:

"Do you choose to desperately defend the northern blockade, or choose to fully believe in the sect and go to Houting County to trap Wucheng Hou and Mr. Zong in the north."

Speaking of which,

Xu Yuan's eyes showed a hint of playfulness, but he didn't continue.

As a senior intelligence worker, Lou Ji was naturally able to keenly observe the changes in Xu Yuan's expression, and pulled the soft flesh on his waist with a little dissatisfaction:

"Changtian, if you have something to say, I will keep a hand with my sister?"

Suffering pain in his waist, Xu Yuan gasped and hurriedly took a step back:

"Stop, stop, I say, I say, it's just a possibility."

"Huh," Lou Ji chuckled and let go of her hand.

Xu Yuan rubbed his waist and smiled helplessly:

"The barbarian king is a madman, and the behavior of a madman cannot be speculated by common sense."

“.”

Lou Ji's eyes flickered slightly, and she understood in an instant, and said softly:

"Long day you mean to say. Is it very likely that the barbarian king will choose neither path? ”

Xu Yuan nodded and asked:

"Sister, what do you think of the protective ability of the kind of camp built by the elites of the sect in the north of the North Closure City?"

Lou Ji recalled a little when she heard this, and smiled with a smile:

"It's all silver-like pewter heads."

After a moment's pause, Lou Ji changed her words:

"But Changtian, although these sects are disgusting, they still have a lot of capable people in their army, and the barbarian king should not choose to take risks."

Xu Yuan shook his head, grinned, and asked:

"If they eat dogs, it's a surprise, if they don't eat dogs, we just follow the original plan, right? Yuan Hao had already gone to the north of Houting County to wait, knowing that he could kill people, that psychopath was excited. ”

While speaking, Xu Yuan rubbed his arms, shuddered, and turned around and walked towards the inside of the cave:

"It's so cold."

Lou Ji looked at his back, and Lianbu moved slightly to keep up slowly:

"Changtian, that old guy from Zong Qingsheng said that Marquis Wu Cheng's Beifeng Army didn't come down with him."

Xu Yuan paused and looked back:

"Mr. Zong didn't persuade him?"

It is indeed a technical job to persuade Wu Chenghou to go south without exposing Tianxun wafers.

However, for people of the level of Zong Qingsheng and Wu Chenghou, all behaviors can basically be understood as "war smell".

After all, Zong Qingsheng relied on this "war smell" to ambush in advance and help Li Qingyan relieve the siege of Dali Mountain.

Thinking about it, Xu Yuan hesitated and said:

"If we only rely on our 150,000 Black Scale Army, it should be difficult to maintain the defense line in that area of Houting County."

Hearing this, Lou Ji raised her hand and pinched Xu Yuan's serious face, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, sister, I only said that Marquis Wucheng didn't go south, and I didn't say that his Beifeng army didn't go south, the Beifeng army was in the four towns of the snow field, and he let two of the towns go south with Zong Qingsheng, and when they arrived in Houting County, they were under the command of Wu Yuan."

Xu Yuan's heart was slightly soothed, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

It seems that Mr. Zong succeeded in persuading that Marquis Wu Cheng, but if this is the case, why did Marquis Wu Cheng leave two towns of soldiers and horses in the snowfields in the north.

The southern side is going to concentrate forces for a strategic decisive battle, and the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and Wu Chenghou should know better than him.

Lou Ji said softly:

"Changtian, don't think too much, Wu Chenghou must have his reasons for doing this, let's just do our thing."

Quiet for a moment,

Xu Yuan exhaled, walked to the table inside the cave and sat down, and asked:

"Then how long will it take for our people to reach the north of Houting County?"

"It's already here."

"What?"

"Well, the Black Scale Iron Cavalry and the Beifeng Iron Cavalry are a little faster than the heavy infantry~"
