Under the cover of night, 500,000 demons marched forward in a phalanx, and 2,500 sergeants quickly dug trenches and approached the enemy camp little by little. After a whole night of fighting, before dawn, 2,500 soldiers dug a trench two and a half miles long, two zhang wide, and more than one zhang deep.

In this way, the position of the Charm Empire's army moved forward two and a half miles, achieving the effect that Xu Dong had envisioned in advance. He, Sha Tuo, Hong Ransheng, and Mai Jiyun climbed up to the ground from the trench, and could clearly see the stone bricks of the enemy's wall, which was less than three miles away from the camp of the Dragons Empire.

During the day, all the sergeants and most of the little demons were hidden in the trenches, leaving only 10,000 little demons to call out to the other side, and the enemy commander did not take these little demons in his eyes at all and ignored them. In the evening, another 500,000 demons were put on to open the way in front, and another 2,500 soldiers dug trenches, and advanced more than two miles before dawn.

Now, the trench had stretched to the edge of the forest, only more than a hundred zhang away from the enemy's camp, Xu Dong divided the one million demons into three groups and made a siege on the ground. When the enemy commander saw that there were so many little demons attacking the city, he hurriedly increased his troops outside the city to prevent the other party from attacking the city, and mobilized the rest of the troops to strengthen the city wall.

When the little demon launched a feint, Xu Dong ordered two thousand five hundred soldiers to dig tunnels, because he knew that the enemy army was waiting for food and grass, so he expected that the enemy army would not charge hungry, and at most he could only confront the army of the Charm Empire outside the city. He took advantage of this opportunity to dig tunnels, extending little by little from the ground into the enemy's city walls, and had achieved the goal of cutting through the enemy's heart.

After a busy night and two days of work, the 5,000 sergeants were divided into several shifts to dig in turns, and finally dug the tunnel the next night. Xu Dong asked the pioneer Hong Ransheng to take 3,000 sergeants to the city through the tunnel, and Mai Jiyun ordered the sergeants to set fire to the enemy's three major military camps.

At the same time, Sha Tuqin led another 2,000 soldiers to charge towards the enemy position, and the deputy vanguard Mai Jiyun led a million demons to crush them, and soon wiped out the enemy troops outside the city. Hong Ransheng opened the city gate and let in his army, and the two armies merged in one place, rushing the enemy army like a tide, and quickly wiped out the remaining enemy army.

The enemy commander, deputy marshal, and vanguard were captured alive by Hong Ransheng and Mai Jiyun, and they hung their heads one by one, saying that they didn't expect to be defeated so quickly, as if they were in a dream. Hong Ransheng pointed at Xu Dong and said, "You can see clearly, this is our Xu Shuai, let the sergeants dig trenches and tunnels into your stomachs, these are all our Xu Shuai's strategies." ”

Xu Dong walked up to the commander of the enemy army and asked, "When will your grain and grass and reinforcements arrive?"

The enemy commander said, "If nothing happens to them in the middle of the road, they should be there at noon!"

A smile appeared at the corner of Xu Dong's mouth, "They can't arrive, I'll let them do something in the middle of the road!"

He found a favorable terrain on the map that was convenient for ambushing the enemy, and sent Hong Ransheng and Mai Jiyun to lie in ambush there with 5,000 soldiers, and when the enemy's food, grass and reinforcements arrived, he immediately gnawed them all.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the enemy's grain and grass and reinforcements really arrived, and they just got into the pocket array that Xu Dong had laid for them, and they exchanged fire with the army of the Charm Empire in a daze. Defenseless in advance and unaware of how many men and horses there were, they gave up resistance and surrendered after resisting for a while.

The war between the Ghost Empire and the Demon Empire ended with the complete victory of the Ghost Empire, and the Spirit Empire lost very badly, not only losing a large number of soldiers, horses, grain and grass, but also losing the extraordinarily large forest to the Ghost Empire.

After the class master returned to the court, Xu Dong met with King Loki and asked him to abide by the prior agreement and let him return to the Yanwu Continent. Loki smiled awkwardly at him, "Xu Aiqing, I'm really sorry, I don't have the Sky Splitting Compass in my hand now, the only Sky Splitting Compass in the Charm Empire is in the hands of a martial artist, no matter how much I ask for it, he won't return it to me." Otherwise, you can go to this military minister yourself and ask for it. ”

After talking to Sha Tuo about that time, Xu Dong knew very well that Loki had already thought of a reason to keep him, but he still had to follow Loki's words, "That magic weapon is in the hands of a military minister? Who is this military minister? Wouldn't he have the heart of rebellion if he dared to disobey the king's will?"

Loki smiled bitterly and whispered, "Xu Aiqing, this is not the place to talk, you wait in the barracks, I will come to your camp in the middle of the night to talk to you in detail!"

Xu Dong understood what Loki meant, there might be the eyes and ears of the Hu Xin family in the hall, and it was not suitable to talk further here, so he said goodbye to Loki and withdrew from the hall, and returned to the camp to wait for Loki to come and talk to him late at night. When he arrived, sure enough, Loki disguised himself as a firehead army and entered Xu Dong's tent, and Xu Dong set up multiple guards outside the tent to prevent anyone from approaching his tent.

It wasn't until the two sat down face-to-face that Loki took off the military uniform of the Firehead Army and let his tightly covered body breathe, "Xu Aiqing, I am sorry for you, I promised you to let you go after you help me fight this battle, but now I have broken my promise!"

After speaking, Loki knelt down to Xu Dong and asked for his forgiveness, which made Xu Dong unprepared, he was a dignified king of the Charm Empire, how could he kneel to him so informally? It is reasonable to think about it, this down-and-out king wants to leave him, and he must do something to move him. Besides, he is also the emperor of the country of Luotuo, who has established the great cause of unifying the Martial Continent, and his status seems to be a higher level than Loki, and it is not an exaggeration for Loki to kneel down and beg him.

"Your Majesty, please hurry up, I'm just a courtier of Your Majesty, how dare I be such a great gift to Your Majesty?"

Loki nimbly got up from the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "In the palace hall, we are considered kings and ministers, but once we walk out of the palace hall, we should be called brothers, and I have long regarded you as my own brother!"

Xu Dong knew that the reason why Loki acted in this emotional drama was to pave the way for what he was going to say next, so he also pretended to be authentic, "That's good, I, Xu Dong, can climb a brother like you, and it is a good thing that I can't hope that the grave of my ancestors is full of smoke." ”

"Brother, I'm so embarrassed as a king!" Loki grabbed Xu Dong's hand, "It's been seventeen years, I have had to be played with in the hands of others for seventeen years, and I am afraid every day, for fear that people will take the head off my neck when they are unhappy, do you say that I can still be called a king?"

At this time, Loki's voice was full of emotion, a handful of snot and tears, he could be regarded as a good actor, and soon pushed this emotional drama to a high cháo, "I have been the king of the Enchanted Empire for seventeen years, and I have endured humiliation and hardship, and I hope that one day someone will come to save me, you are my Loki's savior!"

Xu Dong asked, "Your Majesty, do you need my help with anything?"

The emotional drama was in place, Loki didn't have to pretend anymore, he wiped his tears with his sleeve, and began to get down to business, "Brother, listen to me slowly, here's the thing, a palace incident seventeen years ago completely shook the foundation of the royal power of the Charm Empire, and the Hu Xin family suddenly became bigger, slowly emptying my power as a king. Suffering from my weak strength, I had to endure their snort to survive, and now the wrestling between the two sides has reached a critical time, and the last hole card will be revealed. ”

"You don't know, the Hu Xin family has four brothers, known as the 'Four King Kongs', who are respectively in charge of the internal affairs of the Demon Empire, the military power and the supreme power of the beast taming world, and they have completely set me up in the air, and can blatantly disobey my will and treat me as a non-treat. ”

Although Loki's account is very general, it is annotated by Shad's conversation, and Xu Dong can understand what he means.

"Now, they seem to be tired of me and are in a hurry to finish the last move. The Huhin family has 20,000 troops stationed in Yaraffakuri, and they use the treasury to raise their army to be strong and strong, just to deal with my Loki and pull me Loki off the throne!"

Next, Loki mentioned the incident closely related to Xu Dong, "The martial minister I am talking about is Hu Xin Bernard, the eldest of the 'Four King Kongs' of the Hu Xin family, the generalissimo of the Charm Empire, and the only Sky Splitting Compass in the empire is in his hand. If you want to return to the Martial Continent, you must have the Sky Splitting Compass, and if you want to get the Sky Splitting Compass, you must kill Hu Xin Bernard. ”

Xu Dong thought, what a good setting this is! From this point, I can see Loki's talent, I, Xu Dong, want to go back to the Martial Continent, I can't do without that Sky Splitting Compass, the Sky Splitting Compass is in the hands of Hu Xin Bernard, if you want to get that magic weapon, you must defeat Hu Xin Bernard, defeat Hu Xin Bernard, and your Loki's country will be forever from now on.

To put it simply, if you don't defeat Hu Xin Bernard for Loki, don't eradicate the Hu Xin family for you, and make your country permanent for thousands of years, it will be impossible for me Xu Dong to return to the Wuwu Continent. In other words, I, Xu Dong and you, Loki, are two grasshoppers tied together, and we want to jump together, and we want to finish together.

"There's one more thing I don't understand, aren't there so many military ministers around you? Why don't you let them take on this important responsibility?

Loki smiled casually, "Do you mean Sha Tuo, Hong Ransheng, and Mai Jiyun? These are the three generals I recruited from the Martial Continent at the beginning, these three people can train sergeants and manage military affairs, but because they live in a peaceful environment and don't have much actual combat experience, I am not very sure that they can help me defeat Hu Xinbernard." ”

Xu Dong was taken aback, he didn't expect that Marshal Sha Tuo, Hong Ransheng and Mai Jiyun were also from the Martial Continent, which was another new revelation for him. However, it is not uncommon to think about it, the Meteor Continent located in the upper continent is too old, and it is natural to send talents from the lower continent here.

He suddenly remembered one thing, that is, the identity of these three people who were suspected of being late-stage cultivators of the Merge Realm, these three people were also undoubtedly cultivators of the Inner Dan Sect, and they must have come to the Meteor Continent with a personal purpose, which was to find cultivation resources in this ancient continent, so that they could quickly improve their cultivation realm.
