Chapter 567 - Secret Attack and Ambush
Although Yunzhou was occupied by Xuantian Sect, the people in the state were innocent and were only forced to be implicated. Therefore, it is impossible for Lin Yan to use weapons of mass destruction to strike at him, which makes Momen's actions somewhat restrained in general.
If it is completely released, the role of the poison hall will become particularly important, in terms of Wan Xu's poisonous attainments, under the large-scale poisonous fog, the upper echelons of the Xuantian Sect may be fine, but the ordinary disciples will definitely suffer heavy casualties!
But that's not realistic after all! Not to mention that Lin Yan would not be ruthless at all, even if Momen braved the world's disapproval, the result would not be very good, and it might even backfire.
The blow against Xuantian Sect may not be so effective, but the civilians will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and then Momen and the imperial court will lose the hearts and minds of the people!
And this is undoubtedly a stupid act of putting the cart before the horse, which is equivalent to pushing all the people and forces in Yunzhou to the side of Xuantian Sect.
Now, although Momen's actions have achieved some results, they are in a difficult situation for the time being. Because Yintang's actions have been exposed, the next forced behavior will only make the other party wait for the rabbit, and it will be difficult to achieve results, and the gains outweigh the losses!
"It's going to be up to the battle hall next!" Lin Yan thought so.
At the same time that Xuantian Sect divided its forces to besiege and kill the disciples of the Hidden Hall, a team of more than 200 people touched an important town in Yunzhou under the leadership of Zhan Beixuan.
This is a place where grain and grass are stored, and even if there is an intelligence transmission from the secret hall, it still pays a lot of price to find out here!
If you look at it from the outside, this is an ordinary town, but from Zhan Beixuan's eyes, it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the inspection of pedestrians is quite strict.
In fact, it's rare for people to come here, and they're basically delivering supplies to the town, and it's extremely difficult for them to get in!
Zhan Beixuan whispered to a big dark-skinned man beside him: "Mo Li, you lead fifty people to the exit of the rear of the town, once my side succeeds, the enemy will be intercepted and killed on the spot when he retreats!" ”
Mo Li arched his hand and said, "Yes!" Then he left with a group of disciples.
The manpower configuration here has been known by the secret hall, and Zhan Beixuan has brought elite players from the war hall this time, so he also has full confidence.
He stretched out his palm and waved, and then several of the battlehall's best hands approached. Although they don't have the stealth skills of the hidden disciples, the enemy is in the light and their own side is in the dark, so they will not be detected easily.
Seeing that the personnel were already in place, Zhan Beixuan made the next step, and let out a nightingale's cry from his mouth, although the voice was not high, but it still aroused the vigilance of the guards.
But it was too late, and at the moment when the voice sounded, the battle hall masters who had already infiltrated before suddenly burst into trouble, and their movements simply and neatly cut the throats of the guards.
At the same time, the portal was opened, and Zhan Beixuan shouted: "Brothers, rush me!" ”
At this point, there is no point in being low-key, not to mention that for the people in their battle hall, it is not their own style to hide and hide, and only by breaking through head-on and driving straight in can they show their true colors as heroes!
When the guards in the town had just reacted, Zhan Beixuan led a group of people and horses in the battle hall to rush in, and the two sides fought in close combat.
One of the guards, a man who looked like a leader, shouted angrily: "Who are you, dare to attack this place, and live impatiently? ”
In the face of his questioning, Zhan Beixuan directly cut off his head with an axe, blood splattered, and the scene was extremely bloody!
Zhan Beixuan casually shook off the blood stains on the battle axe, spat it disdainfully, and said: "It's just a dog of Xuantian Sect, and you dare to question Lao Tzu!" Hum! ”
Seeing that the other party was so fierce, some of the guards under the sudden change were frightened, and the scene instantly became chaotic.
Although some of the leaders shouted at it, intent on reorganizing the effective resistance. However, after the so-called "trees fell and scattered", after several leaders were killed one after another, it was difficult for these guards to resist the attack of the battle hall.
After all, people are life-sparing, and under the general trend, there is no great point in resisting! Anyway, it is the leaders above who benefit from the benefits on weekdays, and it is good if the ordinary guards do not take the blame, and there is no need to look at death as if they were desperate!
There are not a few people who have this kind of thought, they themselves are under the coercion and temptation of Xuantian Sect, it is impossible to be loyal, if the situation is superior, it is fine, once it is suppressed, then it will be difficult to unite people's hearts!
At this moment, a loud shout came, saying, "Bastard! Quickly retreat from the enemy, or you want to be in a different place! ”
It was an old man in a moon-white robe, and it seemed that his status was not low, and he should be an elder of Xuantian Sect.
This is not surprising, like such an important place, Xuantian Sect can't rest assured that the soldiers who have gathered here will guard, and it will inevitably arrange its own people to sit in the town, it seems that the elder in front of him is responsible for guarding this place!
In addition to him, there were more than a dozen young disciples, and in terms of clothing and bearing, it was not difficult to see that they were also from the Xuantian Sect.
With the presence of this elder, the chaotic scene on the guard's side became a little calmer, and they no longer scattered and fled as before.
Zhan Bei Xuan knew at a glance that the main master was coming, although their main purpose was not to kill people, but when they saw the people of Xuantian Sect, they couldn't help but think of the blood feud in the past, and naturally their blood and qi were inevitably surging.
Moreover, these elders and disciples of the Xuantian Sect must be cleaned up, otherwise they will not be able to carry out the next action at all if they are hindered by the other party.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhan Bei Xuan raised the battle axe in his hand, and his footsteps quickly rushed towards the elder of the Xuantian Sect, and the battle axe rubbed quickly on the ground, shooting out a series of dazzling sparks.
"Death!"
Zhan Beixuan let out a loud shout, and he had come to the elder's approach, raised the battle axe in his hand high, and then slashed down.
The elder originally wanted to scold, but where did he think that Zhan Beixuan was so undisciplined, and when he came up, he was a killing move, so he immediately used his body to retreat in a hurry.
Even though he reacted quickly, he was still affected by Zhan Beixuan's fierce momentum, and there were a few cuts in his robe, which made him look a little embarrassed!
The two disciples who were closer were directly shocked and flew out, spitting blood from their mouths, obviously seriously injured.
This is still due to the fact that Zhan Beixuan's main target is not them, otherwise, I am afraid that I don't even know how to die!
After dodging Zhan Beixuan's attack, the elder was still in shock, his own strength could reach the innate realm, and he was also a strong party!
But Zhan Bei Xuan is known for his combat power, even in the hands of the innate realm, he is considered an extremely powerful existence, where is an ordinary player like him the opponent of the former!
The elder had a frightened look on his face, in the contact just now, he had already felt the horror of Zhan Beixuan, much stronger than himself, not to mention that there were so many good hands under the other party's hands.
The so-called "loser does not lose the battle", not to mention who Xuantianzong was afraid of, it was the dragon who had to be coiled, and the tiger had to lie down. In short, this elder still does not give up, and wants to "pull the tiger skin to make a big banner" in order to deter these bold thieves!
He dodged and said, "You have offended my Xuantian Sect, but there is already a way to die!" Don't stop quickly, go to the peak with this seat to ask for sin, and save the family! ”
Where would Zhan Beixuan care about this, hearing his threat there, his heart suddenly became more and more irritable, the movements in his hands accelerated, and the battle axe slashed down frantically at the elder.
Facing an opponent like Zhan Beixuan, he couldn't escape at all, because the qi machine had been locked by the former. Blindly dodging is not a way, and in the end, Zhan Beixuan's axe broke the body protection vitality and flew out directly.
With just one blow, the elder's arm was fractured, his chest was dented, and he suffered an extremely huge impact. Under the cloak and hair, he was already covered in blood!
At the level of the Innate Realm, any seemingly small realm gap would have a huge impact on the outcome of the battle, and this Xuantian Sect elder was using his body to understand the meaning of this sentence at this moment!
He is pampered in Xuantian Sect on weekdays, no matter what means he uses, after finally climbing to the innate realm, his status has been greatly improved, and he feels that life is infinitely better!
This time I came to the town to station, and I also took the initiative to take over a fat gap, and when I watched the grain and grass, I could also get some benefits by the way. I didn't think about it, I'm afraid I'm going to take my life this time!
In the flash of thought, countless thoughts had already flashed through the elder's mind, and when he was about to give up his benefits in exchange for a chance to live, Zhan Beixuan had already bullied him again.
But before he could open his mouth to say anything, Zhan Beixuan's axe slashed down on the head. The sharp blade sliced through the skin, and the elder felt a touch of coldness, then a feeling of warmth replaced by a feeling of warmth.
Slowly raised the palm of his hand, it was extremely difficult, his vision was blurred and deformed, and he only saw some warm and sticky things on his hand that were extremely bright red, that is...... Own blood?!
Next, his body went all the way down from the center of his eyebrows, and was split in two by the battle axe, blood was sprinkled, and the scene was extremely bloody for a while!
The surrounding Xuantian Sect disciples were full of horror, the incomparably powerful elder in their eyes was killed by the thieves so easily, where could they still have a chance to survive today!
The rest of the guards were even more heartbroken, they themselves were from the border army, and they had seen a lot of battles large and small, but such a bloody scene still had a huge impact on them, and the little fighting spirit that was left was completely extinguished, and the exclamations were everywhere, and the desperate escapers were in chaos!
For these guards, in fact, Zhan Beixuan doesn't care much, these people have defected under the power of Xuantian Sect, no matter how elite they were, the breath they held in their hearts was dispersed, in fact, it didn't pose much of a threat!
But for the people of Xuantian Sect, he didn't want to let go, not only to slow down the speed of news leakage, but also to take revenge!
He didn't join Momen later, but survived the Momen accident that year, and saw the tragic scene with his own eyes, and later experienced countless battles with Xuantian Sect in the era of the Holy Maiden Moyusu, and the grudge was not small!
"People from Xuantian Sect, don't let any of them go!"
In fact, even if he didn't say it, the disciples of the Battle Hall also focused part of their attention on these people in the Xuantian Sect. The guards had already fled, and the battle hall had an absolute advantage, and it was undoubtedly a matter of easy use to deal with these Xuantian Sect disciples who were dominated by fear.
After killing these people, some of the Battle Hall disciples had already lit flames everywhere, and in an instant, the entire town became ablaze, and it was as bright as day in the dark night.
This is a plan that has been set in advance, so much grain and grass, it is impossible for them to transport it away with just two hundred people, and it is impossible to dispose of it nearby, so the best way is to burn it directly, as long as Xuantian Sect can't use it!
The fire spread instantly, but fortunately, this town is in the middle of nowhere, and there are no ordinary people in it, and they are all guards, so there is no need to worry about hurting civilians, and there are many less scruples in doing things.
In this fire, there were not a few guards who were burned to death and hacked to death, and the corpses emitted an unpleasant burnt smell in the scorching flames, which was very pungent!
At the exit outside the town, there was also an ambush of Moli's men, and the routs had been defended again when they fled, and after that, they had basically lost their combat power.
It's impossible to wipe out all these guards, not to mention that the battle hall is far from understaffed, and even if it can be done, there is no need for it!
First of all, their main task was to destroy the grain and grass of Xuantian Sect, so that Xuantian Sect's desire to meddle in the affairs of the Tang Kingdom would be restricted.
After all, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and it is impossible for Wang Xuanli to slaughter all the countries alone. Although the realm of heaven and man is strong, it also has a limit, if he really could do it, he would have acted like this a long time ago, where would he wait until now!
Besides, among the three sects and seven sects, there are also many masters, and they will not watch the Xuantian Sect gain benefits, at least the Buddha Sect will definitely come to intervene.
Therefore, the best way for Xuantian Sect is to use the army to participate in this multi-party war and seek greater benefits.
It's just that the destruction of the grain and grass stored in the town this time has dealt a big blow to Xuantian Sect!
It is true that in the three caves of the cunning rabbit, it is impossible for Xuantian Sect to store all the grain and grass in one place, but in terms of Yunzhou's reserves, the loss here is definitely not something that can be easily revealed!
Secondly, after the defeat of the guards, it was difficult for Xuantian Sect to gather them again. In other words, these people have lost their threat, and they will even cause some chaos in Yunzhou and cause trouble to Xuantian Sect, which is something that the people of Momen are happy to see.
If these people are forced to a dead end, they will make some kind of chaos under the cauldron and sinking the boat, it will not be beautiful!
In the end, Zhan Beixuan was not only satisfied with the victory here, he also wanted to strike while the iron was hot and further expand the results!
In fact, I have to say that Xuantian Sect's secrecy work is still quite in place, at least with the intelligence ability of the secret hall, it has only detected two places.
Originally, according to the original plan, Zhanbei Xuan should have retreated quickly after destroying the grain and grass here to prevent Xuantian Sect from pursuing. But now Zhan Beixuan feels that they are still too cautious when making plans, and judging from the current situation, it is completely too late to destroy the grain and grass in another place.
Zhan Bei Xuan gathered the disciples of the Zhan Hall and said, "Pass my order and march to the west!" ”
Mo Li was puzzled: "Hall Master, according to the plan, we should retreat to the east after the matter is completed, and then wait for the opportunity to move. ”
Although he is not in charge of IQ, he can become the deputy that Zhan Beixuan relies on, and he is naturally qualified to know the next plan. In his memory, the west should be another place for Xuantian Sect to store grain and grass, according to the plan, it shouldn't have been done like this!
Zhan Beixuan glanced at him and said, "Are you questioning the decision of the hall master?" The plan is dead, the people are alive, and the so-called 'generals are outside, and military orders are not subject to them'! Now that our side is winning, it is natural that we should further expand the results of the battle! ”
Mo Li hesitated: "However, if you change the plan at will, in case you ......"
He is not a decision-maker, and he doesn't have much wisdom, he just knows how to do what he is told. The reason why he reminded Zhan Beixuan was mainly because he was afraid that his casual actions would disrupt the original arrangements of the juzi and the hall masters.
Zhan Beixuan frowned and said: "Big man, mother-in-law, Mo Li, when will it be your turn to command Lao Tzu!" ”
"Don't worry, if something happens, Lao Tzu will bear it with all his might, and it won't be on your head!"
"The soldiers are fast, now, everyone is going to go immediately!"
Since Zhanbei Xuandu said so, Mo Li naturally didn't dare to have any more objections, and the disciples of the Battle Hall set off again, heading towards the west.
This place is full of flames, it is impossible to cover up the news, and the intelligence network of Xuantian Sect is not a decoration, and it soon learned the news of the attack.
In the council hall, the nine elders shouted angrily, and directly slapped the case, saying: "These thieves are so big, the old man will take people to destroy them!" ”
As he spoke, he was about to leave, but was stopped by the Seventh Elder and said, "Ninth brother, don't be so anxious!" ”
The elder said: "The thieves are bullying me, but the head of my sect has come up, how can I not be in a hurry?" ”
The Seventh Elder smiled, "Do you have any traces of thieves?" ”
The Ninth Elder was dumbfounded for a moment, he was just surging with qi and blood, but he didn't take this into account. But this Yunzhou is now their Xuantian Sect's territory after all, and it is not easy to find a group of thieves!
The Seventh Elder smiled and said, "Ninth Brother, let's go to find someone again, it's too hard work, it's better to wait for the rabbit and let them send it to the door by themselves!" ”
"In my opinion, when they taste the sweetness, they won't give up easily! In that case, why don't you invite you into the urn and kill them all? ”
When the Ninth Elder heard this, he also felt that this plan was very good, and immediately set his eyes on Wang Xuanli, who was above the first seat.
The latter nodded in agreement and said, "Seventh Elder, Ninth Elder, you two go together, and bring another five hundred disciples to help, be sure to destroy all the thieves!" ”
The two of them replied, "Yes!" ”
Then they quickly retreated and headed west, the closest to the town that had been attacked, and if the thieves did not stop, they would do it nine times out of ten!
The two of them were one step ahead, and the five hundred disciples were left behind. After all, this is the time to seize the opportunity, and if you have to wait for everyone to act together, the daylily will be cold!
After the Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder left, the atmosphere in the council hall was a little calm, but it was not entirely because of the attack and harassment of the Mo Gate. After all, although these remnants were annoying, it was impossible for Xuantian Sect to break their bones.
The Third Elder pondered for a moment, then arched his hand at the top of the first seat and said, "Sect Master, I don't know what the Ancestor's situation is now?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to Wang Xuanli, who glanced at the third elder and said, "It will take a while!" ”
The elders were silent when they heard this, although the Xuantian Sect was powerful, it could not overwhelm the world's leaders with the power of one sect. But if the Ancestor really took that step, everything would be different, and they might become the true First Sect of the Metaverse!
At that time, all the three religions, seven sects and twelve sects, and any secular dynasty will all be trampled under their feet by their Xuantian Sect!
The second elder on the side slowly opened his slightly closed eyes and said, "It's not far away!" ”
His appearance is very ordinary, but his eyes are particularly sharp, just looking at him, he feels as if his soul is deeply stinged, and every moment is an unspeakable torment!
Xuan Yi is the Great Elder, but it doesn't mean that he is the strongest among all the elders! To be a great elder, in addition to strength, there are also factors such as seniority and management ability.
However, when it comes to pure combat power, this Second Elder is probably still above it!
This is a sword cultivator, who has never married a wife in his life, with the sword as his companion, he has been lonely in the way of the sword, and looking back after many years, there is no one to compete with!
His name is Xuanjian, and what he cultivates is the strongest sword, and he is invincible when he is unsheathed!
Except, that time......
He saw Yu Guang glancing at his chest, where there seemed to be a faint pain, Second Elder Xuanjian took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down his fluctuating emotions.
"I heard that Momen has produced a junior with good qualifications?"
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder said, "It's just the first time to enter the Innate Realm!" However, based on his age, his martial arts talent can be called terrifying! ”
The Eighth Elder nodded, "That's true!" The last time I infiltrated our sect to release the prisoners in the 'Heavenly Abyss', this kid did it! ”
The second elder bowed slightly, then turned his head to look at Wang Xuanli and said, "What does the sect master think?" ”
Wang Xuanli frowned and said, "Even if he makes rapid progress, his strength is only the first to enter the innate realm. Over the years, I have seen many geniuses, too amazing and brilliant, the greater the possibility of his premature death, it is not difficult for my sect to deal with him! ”
"And what really cares about me is that he has a great power in him, and it is with this power that he has been able to hold on to my hands for so long. Elder Xuanyi didn't notice it for a while, and he fell under that force! ”
Wang Xuanli paused, and then said: "And somehow, I always feel that force is somewhat familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere. ”
The second elder said, "Is that so, this is really interesting!" ”
"This time, Momen made a move, I wonder if he will appear? Capture it, and think you can figure something out. ”
……
On the other side, after Zhanbei Xuan and the disciples of the Battle Hall marched all the way, they arrived at another place in Xuantian Sect where grain and grass were stored according to the route indicated on the intelligence. From the outside, the people here don't seem to notice anything unusual.
Moreover, compared to the previous town, the defense of the periphery here was obviously more lax, which made Zhan Beixuan feel that this trip was the right one. As long as you are quick with your hands and feet, it is estimated that you will be able to solve the battle soon!
If two important grain and grass warehouses are lost in succession, even Xuantian Sect will have to break his muscles and bones, and it will be impossible to participate in the war on the Tang side!
Mo Li said: "Hall Master, will there be fraud?" ”
Zhanbei Xuanzhao gave him a violent shudder and scolded: "Why are you kid suspicious today? If you don't dare to go, hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu, so as not to annoy Lao Tzu! ”
Seeing that Zhan Beixuan was angry, Mo Li didn't dare to say much at the moment, and reflected in his heart, maybe he really thought too much!
This is mainly because before leaving, the old hall master Wang Xiaotong specially called him aside and asked him to dissuade him when Zhan Beixuan was on top, and everything had to be done according to the plan!
Zhan Beixuan raised his hand and waved, and several masters sneaked away with the help of the night, ready to replicate the previous action.
Everything went well, and the few guards quietly lost their lives, signaling to Zhan Beixuan's side that they could continue to act.
At this time, Mo Li also felt that he might really think too much, what kind of person the hall master is, and where do he need to worry about himself, just follow the charge honestly!
Under the leadership of Zhan Beixuan, the people of the battle hall soon entered the walled city. This is different from the previous town, the city is built in a mountain col, and the sergeant's guard is not disguised like the town, and it looks a little above board!
However, unlike the towns on the plains, this place is flanked by mountain peaks, leaving only one of the narrow cols to build a walled city, and the danger factor of action is relatively high, and if you attack rashly, the opponent may take advantage of the terrain to form a counterattack.
Once the reinforcements of Xuantian Sect arrived, not to mention the failure of the operation, it might also lose a lot of manpower, so compared to the two, it was still easier to make a plan than the important town of grain and grass.
Zhan Beixuan was also a little vigilant at first, but after easily entering the walled city, he let down his guard and felt that it was nothing more than that!
Just as the people in the battle hall rushed towards the center of the walled city, suddenly the gate of the walled city behind them was closed, and the torches around them suddenly lit up, illuminating the figures of everyone, and there was nothing to hide.
"Oh no, I've been tricked!" At this moment, everyone still doesn't understand that there is an ambush here, and it was so easy to sneak in before, it should be just the enemy's strategy to invite you into the urn.
As the firelight lit up, countless armor soldiers stood on top of the walled city, bent their bows and arrows, and aimed them at the people in the battle hall below, waiting for an order, and the arrow rain would fall.
"Who should I be so bold, it turned out to be Zhan Beixuan! Do you want to know how to die? A laugh rang out, and it was none other than the Nine Elders.
"You don't have to say much to him, just leave a few important people, and the rest can be killed!" The Seven Elders slowly walked from behind.
When he saw these two figures appear, Zhan Beixuan's heart had gradually sunk to the bottom, and he knew that today's things must not be good!
These two people have a transcendent status in the Xuantian Sect, and they also have extremely strong strength, as if the two of them came together, they have obviously been waiting for him here for a long time!
In the face of such two opponents, he could not guarantee that he would be able to win the battle, and it was unlikely that he would even be able to escape for his life.
Moreover, if he retreated, these Battle Hall disciples behind him would definitely die!
Today's Momen talents are withering, even after recuperation, they are still very different from the past, these Zhantang disciples are all elites, and they must not be lost here!
Zhan Beixuan said in a deep voice: "Mo Li, I'll drag these two guys later, you lead people to break through, as long as you can rush out, there is still hope for everything!" ”
Mo Li hurriedly said: "Hall Master, you ......"
Zhan Beixuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said, "Obey the order!" It's my fault, I'll take it myself! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped forward, raised his battle axe, and slashed towards the Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder, and the fierce momentum enveloped the two of them.
At the same time, countless arrows rose into the air, and then shot towards the people of the battle hall like dense raindrops......
