"I don't know how they're doing now, Rosu. Mixed in the ranks of the Xiliang Army, Li Mingyang frowned and muttered.

"What, do you miss someone?" Xiao Zhu'er asked with a cold face.

"Look at you, why are you always careful. Li Mingyang glanced at Xiao Zhu'er.

Guo Yunshan and the others have long been accustomed to this pair of young bickering, and they are all grinning and watching jokes on the side, no one coaxes or persuades.

After laughing, Guo Yunshan spoke: "Don't worry, with Senior Sister Xu and Bai Ming taking care of you in the city, everything will be fine." ”

Li Mingyang nodded, and couldn't say anything more.

After reaching a deal with Li Hong that day, Li Hong found a fief for Li Mingyang very efficiently. Coincidentally, the name of that town is Jingcheng, which is a bit similar to Jingshan City back then, and Li Mingyang simply renamed it Jingshan Town.

Jingshan Town is in the westernmost part of Li Hong's entire earldom, which is relatively remote, and the cultivation resources have been almost barren after years of exploitation, so there are relatively few monks. And such a place is Li Mingyang's favorite.

After getting the fief, Li Mingyang and Guo Yunshan first swept it up, and found out a few secret posts that were monitoring here, they politely returned the people to Li Hong, and told him with a smile that if there was such a situation again, they would kill people directly, and they carefully brought down the Heavenly City. I have to say that the Celestial City is really an amazing treasure, and it can really be called omnipotent from heaven to earth.

Li Mingyang plunged the entire Celestial City into a plain, a large city that at least from the outside looked like it could accommodate 100,000 people, but it was quietly submerged into it. The reason why the Celestial City was plunged into the ground was to not be too ostentatious. The Celestial City is certainly an impregnable fortress, but it can't really be indestructible after all, they all understand the truth that the puppet is innocent and guilty, and such a treasure city must not be known to outsiders, so they would rather hide the Celestial City than fall directly to the ground.

However, Li Mingyang and the others had spirit stones, and soon gathered a large number of coolies to start building the city. It is said that it is to build a city, in fact, it is to build a small town, the city wall does not need to be too high, enough for people to survive, after all, if there is really a large number of enemies attacking, that is, it is time to break with a certain force, and then everyone will naturally hide in the city of heaven and man.

The heavy responsibility of building the city falls on Xu Xin's shoulders, with a strong person in the Real Spirit Realm in charge, and Li Hong's protection on the periphery, Jingshan Town will not have much of a problem. It's just that Li Mingyang is used to worrying about the situation of the people in Jingshan City, so he always chatters.

Originally, Li Mingyang planned to leave the Yan family brothers or Ram Wen in Jingshan Town, but after this period of cultivation, Li Mingyang and the six of them have formed a very tacit cooperation. After advancing to the Real Spirit Realm, Ram Wen was already the strongest combat power in the Heavenly City, even the veteran powerhouse Guo Yunshan was already sighing to himself.

The reason why they left when Jingshan Town was just beginning to be established was because Li Hong gave him a task almost when he handed over the fief.

Expedition.

A very simple task, Li Mingyang's deal with Li Hong is conditional on going on an expedition. But this is a dangerous task after all, after learning that Li Mingyang is going to fight alone, Guo Yunshan and they turned their faces directly, and there is a posture that if Li Mingyang goes alone, they will break off diplomatic relations, and in the end, there is no way, so they can only play together as a group of six plus Ram Wen.

Of course, the success rate of the mission will be greatly increased by the participation of several of them in the battle, and the cooperation between each other in the rescue can also ensure that they can escape even if they are defeated.

Not to mention that when it comes to leading soldiers, Li Mingyang and several of them are all black-eyed. Who will lead the troops, they are a group of butchers, they are very good at killing, and the soldiers are all scum. Previously, Zhang Chong had a period of experience in leading troops, and the battle in Heyang City also gave him actual combat experience, but it was because of that battle that they knew what the real way of commanding the army was, not that the sentence "rush with me" was considered a good general, and if he could not command the banner in the big war and use the entire team, it would not be called a commander at all.

So when they went out to fight this time, Li Mingyang still wisely handed over the military power to the generals in the original team, and they were only responsible for the battle array charge.

The enemy in this battle was the Shu army, that is, the Shu army that was guarding the border between the two counties. Because the king of Shu's plan to go south is being implemented, now the strength of the entire Shu county is beginning to be tight, especially after the unexpected loss of 40,000 Shu troops in the first battle in the south, the king of Shu can only send more men and horses to march into the south, which makes the border defense of Shu County more flawed.

Li Hong saw these flaws, so he sent people to conquer the Shu army strongholds on the border. Taking advantage of the fact that all the energy of the King of Shu was in the south, he completely uprooted the stronghold of the Shu army, so as to ensure that Li Hong's people could control the five spirit stone veins on the border for at least five years, and maybe even longer.

Regardless of the victory or defeat in the south, it will be particularly difficult for the Shu army's forces to retreat, and the battle for the stronghold is not a battle between the two counties, so it is absolutely no problem for them to occupy the spirit stone veins on the border before the other party is completely adjusted.

As long as this battle is won, so many benefits can be obtained in the first war, and such a war is naturally the most cost-effective war.

It's just that in this battle, Li Hong gave Li Mingyang a big problem.

The so-called stronghold is actually a city of monks, this stronghold is the same as the Lingshi mine, who occupies it and who enjoys it, but after all, the battle for the stronghold involves the attack and defense of the city, so Li Hong has never dared to try lightly. This time, Li Mingyang joined, Li Hong seemed to see hope, no matter whether Li Mingyang recognized it or not, anyway, Li Hong always believed that Li Mingyang was a military god-level figure, and with the military god in charge, it was naturally easy to attack a stronghold.

As a result, Li Hong only gave Li Mingyang 5,000 Xiliang monks, and among the battle reports he received, there were at least 12,000 Shu troops in that stronghold.

I still remember that before the expedition, Li Hong said to Li Mingyang with a stern face: "My Lord of the Army, this battle depends on you, I am very optimistic about you." Come on. ”

Li Mingyang was angry and wanted to slap him at that time, and said fiercely: "Look at your sister, I have confidence why don't you fight." But thinking that he had blown out the cowhide before, Li Mingyang could only bite the bullet. After all, he had tried many times to convince Li Hong, hoping that the other party would believe that he did not know how to lead the army, but it turned out that he couldn't do it.

But what is even more embarrassing now is that although the Xiliang army traveling with Li Mingyang must obey Li Mingyang's orders according to Li Hong's arrangement, these Xiliang monks not only did not respect them after knowing that they were just a group of stupid monks from the Southern Barbarians, but always mocked them.

Hao Jingfei is the supreme general of this expedition, and Li Mingyang handed over the military power to him, anyway, this is his team, and it is naturally better to be commanded by him. It's just that in Hao Jingfei's opinion, Li Mingyang and them are just a group of martial artists who can only do brute force, although the strength of the six people is not weak, but that's all. Thinking that their Lord Earl had actually entrusted the task of attacking the stronghold to Li Mingyang, Hao Jingfei couldn't understand it.

On the way to the march, Li Mingyang came over and asked, "Is there a hundred ghost villages around here?"

"Hundred Ghost Village?" Hao Jingfei was puzzled for a while: "Why are you asking this?"

"Just ask, maybe it will be useful to attack the stronghold later. Li Mingyang said very calmly.

Hao Jingfei looked at him with an exaggerated expression, and then looked at several other officers around him and asked, "Did I hear it wrong just now, it seems that someone said that attacking the stronghold and finding the Hundred Ghost Village can work?"

Several officers sneered and said, "It seems that I also misheard, how do I feel that someone said that just now." ”

Along the way, these people don't know how many times they have been cynical, Li Mingyang was too lazy to pay attention to them, but seeing that these people's faces were getting more and more ugly, it was obvious that he was kicking his nose in the face, and his temper gradually couldn't help it.

"Is there a hundred ghost villages nearby? Li Mingyang asked again.

Hao Jingfei glanced at him unexpectedly, but continued to exaggerate and said: "Yo, are you still angry? I want to see ......."

As a result, before Hao Jingfei finished speaking, everyone suddenly saw a bloody light, and one arm fell to the ground in a daze. Hao Jingfei didn't even have a mocking look on his face, and even looked down subconsciously with a little smile, but after seeing that the arm on the ground was very familiar, he let out a scream of horror.

"You, you, you...... Do you dare to hurt me?" Hao Jingfei looked at Li Mingyang with a hideous face, but his voice had already begun to tremble.

There was an instant commotion around him, and all the Xiliang monks came over curiously, and then they all looked at Li Mingyang with a hostile expression. After all, Hao Jingfei was the general they were most familiar with, and seeing that their main general had his arm cut off, these people couldn't help but start a riot.

Li Mingyang was stunned, put away the ghostly heavy knife, and continued to ask with Hao Jingfei's neck: "Is there a hundred ghost villages nearby?" ”

"You dare to hurt me?" Hao Jingfei was still staring at Li Mingyang, and the other officers around him all threatened: "Let General Hao go, otherwise you will look good." ”

Hao Jingfei also had a fierce face, and said viciously: "Now let me go, you still have a chance to live, otherwise it will be impossible for the Earl to spare you based on the sin of your injury." ”

Li Mingyang's face was expressionless, and he simply took out a rope from the treasure bag, this is a magic weapon captured in the battle, this seemingly ordinary rope is a third-order magic weapon, and it is best to use it to tie Hao Jingfei, a guy who only has the triple cultivation of the Void Spirit Realm.

Neatly tied up Hao Jingfei and threw it aside, Li Mingyang took advantage of the situation and grabbed another person, and asked directly: "Say, is there a hundred ghost villages nearby?" ”

The man still wanted to be ruthless, but seeing the broken arm with blood on the ground that had not yet dried up, and Hao Jingfei, who was thrown aside and couldn't move, the officer finally became panicked, and said again and again: "Yes, yes, there are hundreds of ghost villages nearby, there are almost three, I know where they are." ”

Only now did this person suddenly realize that when Li Mingyang grabbed him, his eyes were flashing with a strong killing intent, and he had no doubt that if he hesitated, Li Mingyang would definitely kill him.

After getting a definite answer, Li Mingyang nodded with satisfaction, let go of the officer, and said lightly: "I don't like to play any tricks with you, and I don't bother to listen to your sneering in my ear every day." Pointing to the severed arm on the ground, Li Mingyang said: "This arm is considered your punishment for chewing your tongue these days, he is the Lord who will not restrain you, even if it is his fault, but from today on, if anyone says a word that there is no yes or no, don't let me hear it, as long as I hear it, all of you have to leave one of these things here, you know." ”

A few officers, you look at me, I look at you, although there is a fierce light in their eyes, but at this moment they all feel the same as the person before, what Li Mingyang said seems to be true, and it seems that he has no taboos about killing them. Thinking of the Earl's repeated exhortations before leaving, they finally understood that perhaps this Li Mingyang, who had just joined in their opinion, was the person that the Earl had paid the most attention to recently.

Although the surrounding Xiliang monks were all indignant, they saw that the lord had tied up Hao Jingfei after being seriously injured, but their superiors did not dare to speak, and these little monks were completely silent.

Li Mingyang is not the kind of person who likes to be majestic, but no matter how good his temper is, if he hears someone say irresponsible remarks in front of him every day, it is impossible that there will be no waves in his heart, in fact, he only broke Hao Jingfei's arm today, which can be regarded as giving Li Hong enough face, after all, it is his person, and it is okay to punish it yourself, if it is really killed, it is not easy to explain.

"Hmph, it seems that the Central Plains is not all tough guys, and killing chickens and monkeys is also very useful here. The little ferocity was completely peaceful in the world, and Li Mingyang sighed proudly.

The brothers of the Yan family pouted: "Hmph, it's not all the same." ”

Guo Yunshan didn't comment on this, but asked curiously: "Why did you suddenly ask about the Hundred Ghost Village." ”

In the past year or so, Guo Yunshan and the others have indeed followed Li Mingyang to exterminate a lot of Hundred Ghost Villages, and even the most ferocious one exterminated a Hundred Ghost Village where there were three or four thousand true ghosts. But this time, their expedition didn't seem to have anything to do with Baigui Village, and Guo Yunshan was naturally puzzled.

Li Mingyang didn't hide it, and said directly: "Judging from the battle report that Li Hong gave me, the stronghold occupied by the Shu army is at least protected by a third-level magic circle, and it may even be a fourth-level magic circle, protected by a magic circle, and there are more than 10,000 Shu troops in the stronghold. ”

Guo Yunshan nodded with deep feelings, but still asked puzzledly: "Even if you find the Hundred Ghost Village, it is difficult for the real ghost army that has just been summoned to exert its strength, and it is difficult to form a real ghost army to fight against the Shu army." ”

"Of course it's difficult, so I didn't plan to use the precious to fight against the Shu army. ”

"That's?" Guo Yunshan was even more puzzled.

Li Mingyang paused, and said mysteriously: "I plan to use real ghosts to break the magic circle." ”
