After crossing the Yuma River, the army marched in the sea of grass for several more days before seeing the border. In the past ten days, there have been sneak attacks by the remnants of the demon soldiers, although it is not enough to cause major damage, there are also many casualties. After crossing the border, they entered the Green Ridge, the grass and trees gradually thinned, and the remnants of the demon soldiers lost the cover of the sea of grass and could no longer sneak attack, and the army finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xinchen was about to give the order to speed up the march, but encountered an even more difficult problem, as the terrain gradually increased, the temperature dropped, and the plateau lacked oxygen, the soldiers became more and more difficult to breathe, the horses became more labored, and the army moved more and more slowly. Xinchen is anxious, and there are frequent good news from the front, Li Guangjun's army is already in sight, and he is in urgent need of heavy support, and he may change greatly one day later.

Suddenly, several horses galloped in front of them, also on the plateau and cold, but they were walking on the ground and flying like flying. Xinchen's eyes lit up, if he could find a batch of such plateau horses, wouldn't the problem be solved, so he decisively abandoned his mount and flew to chase those horses.

After chasing for dozens of miles, turning over the mountain, a large alpine grassland appeared in front of him, and tens of thousands of identical plateau horses were wandering in the grassland. Xinchen was excited, and was about to go down the hill to investigate, but found a team of well-trained demon soldiers patrolling the grassland, and not far from the grassland there was a city made entirely of stones, and it seemed that it would take some effort to obtain these horses. After careful observation, Xinchen quietly retreated from the top of the slope and quickly returned to the army.

After Xinchen chased out alone, the army simply rested on the spot, and when he saw him returning, he was about to get up and continue to march, but Xinchen raised his hand to stop him, and said to the generals: "Set up camp here today." There is a large plateau grassland dozens of miles ahead, grazing tens of thousands of plateau horses just seen, and with these horses, they will definitely be able to greatly speed up the march. But the downside is that there is a small city on the edge of the pasture, and there are demon soldiers stationed there. If you want to get the horses, you must first uproot the stronghold, and the generals will have a good plan?"

Before the words fell, I saw a reckless big man come out of the crowd, and said loudly: "Please allow my majesty to have an army of 100,000 troops, and I can take that small city in an instant!"

Xinchen was angry and funny, but he couldn't dampen his courage, and said lightly: "Okay, I have allowed you to have an army of 100,000, but before the army came to the city, the tens of thousands of horses were already frightened and fled in all directions." ”

The generals didn't have the same self-cultivation as Xinchen, and they all laughed, only the reckless man looked innocent and asked, "Isn't Your Majesty going to uproot the stronghold?"

Xinchen said patiently: "That's right, I want to uproot the stronghold, but the uprooting of the stronghold is to get that batch of plateau horses and transport baggage for us, not just for that city, do you understand?"

The reckless man still looked puzzled, but said on his lips: "The last general understands, Your Majesty Shengming!"

Xinchen didn't want to explain more, and instead glanced at the generals, and the reckless man was also silent. At this time, a non-commissioned officer who looked like a scholar spoke: "Your Majesty, may I ask if you have mandala pollen with you?"

Xinchen was a little surprised, how could there be such a weak scholar in the army, so he asked, "Are you..."

The non-commissioned officer knelt down on one knee and said, "The last general, Cheng Yu, is a grain transport officer in the army. ”

Xinchen suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "Do you know Cheng Qingfeng, the guard of Dragon City?"

The non-commissioned officer looked up and replied, "It's my father." ”

Xinchen hurriedly helped Cheng Yu up and said, "No need to be polite, I brought mandala pollen, I don't know what you are for?"

Cheng Yu said: "Mandala pollen has a strong anesthetic effect, it can be quietly sprinkled into the grassland water source, the horses will temporarily fall into a coma after drinking water, we can send troops to surround the sleeping horses, and take advantage of this to quickly take down the demon clan to defend the city, what does Your Majesty think?"

Xinchen took out the bag of mandala pollen that had been treasured for a long time from his clothes, solemnly handed it to Cheng Yu, and said, "Then this matter will be handed over to you." ”

Cheng Yu took the order and left, and when he left, he secretly said: "My father is ready in the north, please rest assured, Your Majesty." ”

Suddenly, Cheng Qingfeng actually sent his parents and children to help, and said secretly: "Old Cheng, I owe you another big favor!" Thinking that Cheng Yu knew that the mandala pollen must have been told to him by Li Miao. Miao'er, are you okay in the north?

As night fell, the highland horses fell asleep under the influence of mandala pollen. Cheng Yu led 5,000 soldiers down the high slope quietly, leaving 1,000 people to surround the grassland, and then led the rest of the soldiers across the grassland to sneak to the stone city. Looking from afar, I saw a number of demon soldiers on duty at the head of the city, Cheng Yu ordered a good hand in the army to kill the guards with blowing arrows, and then made the flying hook climb the city tower, and captured the city in a short time, and sent an envoy to report to the heart.

After receiving the report, Xinchen immediately rushed to Stone Town. It turned out that there were very few garrisons in the city, but there were a large number of horse harnesses hoarded, and I thought that these demon soldiers were only responsible for herding these plateau horses. Xinchen was frightened for a while, if he came a few days later, a large number of demon soldiers gathered here, and there was a good foot strength of the plateau horse, this baggage army was afraid that it would be killed by the demon soldiers. Thinking of this, Xinchen turned to Cheng Yu and said: "Cheng Yu, I estimate that in a few days, there may be demon soldiers gathered in this city, you look at those hoarded horse harnesses and pasture plateau horses, I'm afraid they are coming for our baggage army." Then you don't have to go west with me, and give you 50,000 horses to garrison this city to repel the demons. ”

Cheng Yu said: "It's okay, with this batch of plateau horses, Your Majesty can pick up important things and go to the magic capital quickly, and other things will be handed over to me." ”

The next day, Xinchen said goodbye to Cheng Yu, changed into a plateau horse, and led the remaining 150,000 people to rush to the magic capital. Although the good news is frequent, Xinchen faintly has an ominous premonition, arranging Cheng Yu to garrison this city, and there is another meaning that is not clear, that is, in case the demon capital is defeated, this city may be the life-saving straw on the road to retreat!
