Chapter 254: The Peak of Immeasurable

In Bai Jianqi's opinion, no matter what conditions Lan Yu'er had, as long as Chu Yunchuan entered the city, the surrender of the Heavenly Demon Army was a sure thing. Right now, the Southern Regions can be said to be under the control of the Bai Family Army, which is equivalent to the grand goal of sweeping the Eight Desolations has been completed by one, and there is only one Yanhuang Sect left.

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible.

This time, a team was sent to find out, and Bai Jianqi had great expectations for a few of them, but Bai Jianqi was also mentally prepared for failure. The Yan Huang Army and the Heavenly Demon Army fought fiercely in the Weiming Valley for more than a month, and no one could cross the other party's thunder pool, Bai Jian Qi knew very well that no matter how brave the warrior was, if he wanted to cross the blockade line of the Weiming Valley, he must first have the consciousness of death, so he toasted a bowl of wine before seeing him off.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The days of waiting are long, and it is not an exaggeration to spend the days like years, and Bai Jianqi rarely has this feeling of suffering.

There was no news of Chu Yunchuan's negotiation from Heavenly Demon City, and there was no news from the team from Yucheng, and when he got up early in the morning, Bai Jian Qilian ate the breakfast that Bai Jian Qilian sent to the tent camp, and with a telescope in his hand, he stood on a towering tree and looked at the unnamed valley where a beacon fire was rising.

Last night, the Yan and Huang Army attacked once, fighting with the Heavenly Demon Army on the front line until dawn.

That battle should have been fought very badly, with a strong bloody smell in the mountain wind, and from a distance, the Heavenly Demon Army evacuated from the front line was left with a lone forty or fifty cavalry. Looking at it, Bai Jian Qi couldn't help but be taken aback, he suddenly found that those dejected demon soldiers were not retreating in the direction of Heavenly Demon City, but retreating towards the three forks. That is, the camping area of the Bai family's temporary garrison.

"Do they want to lure the Yanhuang Army here?"

Bai Jian Qi muttered to himself, feeling that this possibility was very high.

Although it was a matter of time before the Bai family army and the Yan and Huang army went to war, and the Bai family had already been ready to fight, but not now, at least, before Chu Yunchuan did not come back, he must not rush to send troops, Bai Jian Qi thought that this was a very stupid behavior.

Seeing that the forty or fifty people were getting closer and closer to the camp, Bai Jian Qi flew and landed in front of the camp.

In the barracks. The adjutant and several mid-level non-commissioned officers were analyzing the situation around a map. Bai Jian Qi called the adjutant out. He was about to ask him to expel the demon soldiers, when a sudden voice came from behind him: "Report!" Bai Jianqi turned his head to look at it, saw a military letter in the soldier's hand, and asked curiously: "Where did it come from?"

"Heavenly Demon City. The soldier handed the military letter to Bai Jian Qi. Added: "The messenger of Heavenly Demon City said. Lord Chu Yunchuan had already reached an agreement with their princess, Lan Yu'er. He wants us to immediately march north to support the Heavenly Demon Army in the Unnamed Valley. ”

Bai Jianqi opened the letter and saw that it was really Chu Yunchuan's handwriting.

The letter does not say what kind of agreement was reached. didn't say when he would come back, and didn't even mention Bai Muxue's matter, but simply said: "Alliance with the army of the Heavenly Demon Clan today, and go north!" Even if you cherish words like gold, you don't have to save to such a point, right? Bai Jian Qi secretly complained to himself, this is definitely the most depressing letter in the world.

The adjutant stood next to him and glanced at it, reminding, "Could it be fake?"

Bai Jianqi's first reaction was to shake his head, because Chu Yunchuan's scribbled handwriting of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing was really not something that ordinary people could imitate, and furthermore, if you looked carefully, the seemingly crazy brushstrokes actually revealed a sense of ease, which could very well reflect a person's character and discipline, which was unique.

Based on the fact that the authenticity of this letter could not be doubted, Bai Jianqi secretly cursed Chu Yunchuan again in his heart, and after waiting for two days, he waited for such a fancy result, and there was no gossip about peace talks in between, which was really boring.

"The whole army is assembled and ready for the alliance division. ”

Bai Jianqi crumpled the letter paper into a ball, threw it in the corner, and walked quickly to the assembly place.

He was still very curious about the Heavenly Demon Army that was about to join the alliance, and he didn't know how many troops the other party had. He pondered with anticipation, he didn't need too much, as long as there were forty or fifty thousand, and then the two armies would be in alliance, sweeping through the Weiming Valley and breaking through the Jade City, just around the corner! I heard that the Jade City was a place rich in beautiful women, and in the past, after many Yanhuang soldiers had settled there, they never wanted to leave.

With this thought, Bai Jianqi's spiritual energy immediately rose.

However, ideals and realities are always surprising.

It didn't take long for Bai Jian Qi to be completely dumbfounded when he saw the Heavenly Demon Army that had come to join the Alliance, this is the so-called Great Army?

Forty-seven cavalry!

If you read it right, these forty-seven guys are the remnants of the soldiers I just saw on the lookout. The person at the head is an uncle, with a round and big head, a bald head, and a very honest appearance, especially when he grins, it is a living fool's signboard.

Bai Jian Qi asked in disbelief, "Are you here to join the Divisional Alliance?"

"Hmm. The bald head stretched out a rough big palm, and said very politely: "My name is Ben Lei, and on the order of the princess, I will lead the main army of the front line to join the alliance with your Bai family's army, please take care of me." ”

"It's easy to say......" For the sake of the other party's politeness, Bai Jianqi shook his hand, and then looked at the road behind them with longing eyes, and asked, "There is still a large army that has not arrived, right?"

"It's all there. Ben Lei replied seriously: "We are a high-quality army, it is impossible to lose everything, I have named it, all here, there are many of them." ”

"......!!!" Bai Jianqi wiped a handful of cold sweat, turned around and shouted depressedly: "Let's go!"

When the army arrived at the front line of the Unnamed Valley, it was already noon.

On this long front, which stretched for hundreds of miles, there were corpses everywhere, but fortunately, there were yin and yang mirrors in the sky, and the light could not penetrate the dense dark clouds, which made the temperature drop a lot. Otherwise, in the scorching heat of May, so many corpses were exposed to the sun, it is estimated that it would take courage to breathe; the Yanhuang Military Daily once made a boring peculiar smell list, and according to their official appraisal, the smell of rotting corpses ranked first.

Then again, corpses are such things that you will get used to if you see too much, and Bai Jianqi is not much disgusted.

The front spies report. The Yan and Huang army had a sentry post fifty miles away, and it was estimated that they had ambushed heavy troops.

Bai Jian Qi pondered for a while, and decided to take a rest here first, at least, before the battle, he had to fill his belly first. There was nothing to eat in the wilderness, except for the same roasted animal meat, and the soldiers picked some wild fruits to pay respects.

Bai Jian Qi sat with his back against a redwood tree, nibbling on the wild fruit and complained to the savage adjutant next to him: "My Bai family's 60,000 male lions, why do you want to form an alliance with forty-seven desperate demon clan remnants?"

"You just think of yourself as a selfless wet nurse, think about the Heavenly Demon Clan cutting off your milk. Immediately there will be a corpse wilderness. I believe that my heart will be much more balanced. The adjutant grabbed the barbecue in his hand, hissing in large chunks, probably overstuffed in his mouth, and his speech was very indistinct.

Bai Jian Qi felt that this made sense. But the suffocation in my heart is still really reflected in the twisted brows. He looked at Ben Lei, who was splitting the flesh of the soldiers. Muttered, "That bastard is really lucky, and he met me who is merciful." ”

"Heaven is more merciful. The adjutant said, "Actually, our luck is good. In addition to fighting hard in Twilight City, the next road was smooth, and from the perspective of war, it should be content. Just imagine, half of Guidusk will be dead, if the post city fights again, and continues to fight in the Heavenly Demon City, how many people can go back alive, it's really hard to say. ”

Bai Jianqi nodded noncommittally, feeling that this was really reasonable.

When everyone had eaten about the same, Ben Lei walked over and said with a grinning smile: "Brother Bai, don't look at the fact that we are only forty-seven people, on the front of Weiming Valley, no one knows the terrain and the state of the enemy army better than us, and at a critical time, you will find that we are an indispensable backbone." ”

"It's been seen. ”

Bai Jianqi looked at him with a smile, and the more he talked with this big bald head along the way, the deeper he understood. Bai Jianqi had to admit a fact, it is really difficult to draw a clear dividing line between stupidity and genius, and the so-called great wisdom and foolishness probably refer to people like Ben Lei.

If you turn over the past history, Bai Jian Qi will definitely kill him.

Because of the Nine Swords Demon Tower, the contradiction between the Heavenly Demon Clan and the Bai family has lasted for more than a thousand years, and that kind of deep-rooted grievance can be resolved without a single alliance. Privately, Bai Jian Qi couldn't tolerate the other party's wise man living in this world, which was a threat to the Bai family.

Again, there's the issue of loyalty.

The Heavenly Demon Army, just like the mounts under their butts, is difficult to trust people. Their mount is the Six-Winged Tiger, like this monster beast with three pairs of wings, although it can run and fly like the Ice Wing Divine Horse, and its fierce domineering spirit is by no means comparable to the Ice Wing Divine Horse, and it is born to be a conqueror in the battlefield, but in terms of agility and loyalty to its master, it is a lot worse than the Ice Wing Divine Horse.

This is also the reason why Bai Jiajun doesn't like the Six-Winged Heavenly Tiger.

However, distrust is distrust, in the current environment, Bai Jian Qi is really not afraid of the rebellion of the Heavenly Demon Army, only forty-seven people are sandwiched in the sixty-thousand Bai Family Army, they have no other choice but to sell their lives.

After nightfall, the army set out again.

Passing through the redwood forest, in front of it is the exit of Weiming Valley, which is also the first line of defense of the Yanhuang Army, and you can see a sentry post from a distance. Bai Jian Qi stopped and asked Ben Lei next to him: "With the power of our army, if you drive straight into the Yellow Dragon for a long time, what are the chances of winning?"

"Zero. ”

"Zero?"

"Zero!" Ben Lei stared at the blazing sentry in front of him, recalled the protracted battle of this month, and said with palpitations: "The soldiers in the Yan and Huang army seem to be all proficient in the art of war, and they cannot understand it! Their strategic methods are often unpredictable. Looking back, we have not been hindered in the slightest along the way, and it is clear that they may have received information and knew that our two sides had joined forces, and now they are driving straight in, undoubtedly throwing themselves into the net. ”

Bai Jianqi smiled indifferently, and was even more sure of Dazhi Ruoyu's point of view.

The Yan and Huang armies are all pioneers from the earth, and all of them have received strict military training, and their strategic skills are naturally more mature than the Yeluzi army that has just evolved from the Xianwu world. Ben Lei has lived in the Heavenly Demon City for many years, and he can understand these as soon as he is born, which is quite good.

Bai Jian Qi asked again: "Then in your opinion, how should this battle be fought?"

"In front is the first line of defense, and the garrison is about 20,000. The F19 infantry battalion is the main one, and there is a second line of defense ten miles away, which is garrisoned by the camp of Suxiu, in addition to the mobile deployment of the dragoon battalion. Ben Lei seriously analyzed: "Don't look at the first line of defense is not much, it is not far from the second line of defense, if there is a firefight, the dragoon battalion behind can immediately rush to the front line to support, besides, we don't know whether there is a large array in it, and it is definitely not possible to break through." In my opinion. Instead of going into a venturing invasion, it is better to lure the snake out of the hole. ”

"Okay, just do what you said - lure the snake out of the hole! You Heavenly Demon Army will be the bait, after all. You are familiar with the terrain. ”

This decisive decision. Ben Lei was taken aback.

Ben Lei realized it consciously. Bai Jianqi, this kid is really cunning, it is estimated that he already has an idea in his heart, so he is waiting for himself to lift a stone and hit himself in the foot. If you don't agree. That didn't seem to be bold enough, Ben Lei hesitated for a while, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, let's go and bait." ”

"Really guys!" Bai Jian Qi patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "If there is a situation, use the rocket as a signal." ”

"Okay. ”

The pit was dug by himself, Ben Lei thought, this time it was planted, there is no difference between life and death.

Since he gave up his life, Ben Lei had no scruples, and went straight to the front line with forty-six people. Luring the snake out of the hole, naturally the bigger the movement, the better, at this time, the six-winged tiger under their buttocks played a big role, a whip down, the tiger roared in the mountains and forests, domineering and shocking, just like a war drum A thunder broke through the dark night sky, and the movement could be heard ten miles away.

However, Bai Jian Qi knew very well that if the enemy really knew the news of the coalition army, it would be easy to lure the enemy out of the camp, but it would be difficult to lure them into the redwood forest.

In order to lure the enemy deep into the hinterland, Bai Jian Qi divided the 60,000 army into three groups, one group was ambushed on the left flank of the redwood forest, one group was ambushed on the right flank of the redwood forest, and the last group stood directly on the avenue of the redwood forest. He pondered that if all the 60,000 troops were hidden, the other party would definitely be suspicious, and leaving 20,000 people here to support Ben Lei was neither more nor less, which could be convincing, but not enough to exert strong pressure on the enemy army, and if the opponent's dragoon battalion came out of the hole, it would definitely pounce.

This is a day.

The situation is delicate.

The sky was already slightly bright, but there was no movement in front of him, and after Ben Lei's team of more than 40 people went out, it was as if the world had evaporated, and there was no news.

The adjutant came over and asked, "City Lord, I've been waiting all night, why haven't you reacted?" Will the bald guy be arrested?"

"Probably not. Bai Jianqi said thoughtfully: "If there is an accident, he will definitely release the rocket." ”

"Now that there is no news, what are we going to do?

"Wait!" Bai Jianqi said resolutely: "The more unclear the situation, the more you can't be anxious, continue to ambush those who should be ambushed, and hold on to me." ”

"Hmm. ”

The adjutant took out a small command flag and waved a code signal to the left and right wings, indicating that he would continue to hold his position.

At the same time, a soldier hurried to the Heavenly Demon City with Bai Jianqi's sentwa. Because Bai Jian Qi said that it was an emergency military situation, the soldiers did not dare to make the slightest mistake, and when they flew to the Heavenly Demon City, even the Ice Wing Divine Horse was so tired that he was panting.

The letter was not directly handed over to Chu Yunchuan.

Although the soldier wanted to hand it over to Chu Yunchuan in person, it was only after entering the Heavenly Demon City that he couldn't help but do whatever he wanted. The first person to read the letter was Lan Yu'er, very funny, after Lan Yu'er read the first paragraph, the two curved willow eyebrows were twisted, as if she was speechless.

It reads: "Hey, goblin, when you read this letter, it means I'm bored...... In other words, I've always been curious, what kind of goblin are you? Lan Yu'er, referring to the blue sky and the rain? It sounds very beautiful and poetic, but it's a pity, I'm a rough person who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, it's a pity, I can only taste an empty glass heart from these three words...... "Seeing this, she can almost imagine Bai Jian Qi's little cheapness.

However, she was not angry about it, on the contrary, looking at it, her brow stretched again, and there was a hint of a pleasant feeling of knowing smile. In these blazing years, it is so rare to see such a boring letter.

A few days ago, I heard that Bai Jian Qi was a brainless man.

Now that I think about it, the rumors are not so reliable, at least, he knows that this letter will fall into his hands first, which shows that he is still a little wise.

Continue to look down, and the back finally cuts to the point.

Later it reads: "...... A few days ago, I sent a ten-member team to Yucheng to find out, but it is estimated that it failed, and there has been no news so far. Later, Ben Lei said that he wanted to lead the snake out of the hole, but it was also gone, just like the world had evaporated, I don't know what the situation is in front of me, you better call my master to come in person, this matter is a bit mysterious. ”

After reading it, Lan Yu'er did not hesitate at all and went straight to Wuliang Mountain.

Wuliang Mountain is in the southwest corner of the Tianshu Star Continent framework, towering on the coastline, on the side of the sea, there are thousands of cliffs, and the waves have swept away countless gods.

The mountain, as its name suggests, is immeasurably high.

In history, no one knows how high this mountain is, it seems to be endless, no matter how you fly, it is always halfway up the mountain, but there are still countless people who dream of flying to the top of the infinite limit. This is the holy land of the heavenly demon clan, according to the records of the demon history, there is the Heavenly Divine Mansion at the top of the immeasurable, as long as you ascend to the Divine Mansion, you can directly manifest the saint in Nirvana and achieve the eternal body.

Lan Yu'er's mother flew up to Wuliang Mountain a few decades ago, and now, no one knows whether she is drinking wind and clouds on the top of the mountain, or falling into the deep undercurrent of corpses in the sea.

At that time, Lan Yu'er was still a baby in swaddling clothes.

For so many years, Lan Yuer has only been able to touch her mother's cheek in the portrait, which has become the regret of her life. After she learned the reason why her mother flew to Wuliang Mountain from Lord Yousi, she was even more anxious, this time she was finally able to reach an agreement with Chu Yunchuan, she really hoped that Chu Yunchuan could help her realize this long-cherished wish, but she begged Chu Yunchuan to fly up Wuliang Mountain to verify her mother's life and death.

Looking at those immortal martial supremes of Tianshu Star, in terms of strength and realm, Chu Yunchuan recognized the second, and no one dared to recognize the first.

If even he can't fly to the top of immeasurable, then there is really no one in this heaven and earth who can reach the top.

As a result, what disappointed her was that when she came to Wuliang Mountain again, she saw Chu Yunchuan still standing at the foot of the mountain, and she couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you promise to help me go up and have a look?" (To be continued......
