Chapter 404: Invasion of the Underworld
Although the loss this night was not small, it was still within Yan Liang's bearing, but the bad thing was that the other party did not leave because of this, but instead set up a water village on the other side of the river, obviously planning to fight a protracted war with them, which made Yan Liang have a headache, especially when he knew that the other party was the brother of the fire general Wu Thunderbolt, the water dragon general Wu Fubo, and he wanted to die.
And what made Yan Liang have a headache was still behind, Wu Thunderbolt, who was eager for revenge, sent all the remaining fire cavalry to the warship regardless of his injuries, so that Wu Fubo's dozens of warships became fire-breathing battleships, and what was even more terrifying was that they built a wind temple on the shore, and the incense and candles burned were like a hill every day.
Once the Ten Thousand Ancestors obtained the position of the Wind God, when the time came, the fire would borrow the wind, and the wind would help the fire, and even if Yan Liang's camp was built in the river, it would not be enough for them to burn.
If these things are still in the future, now just Wu Fubo's dozens of warships have already made Yan Liang's hair gray.
Although this river is not big, all that can come in are some small warships, which can cooperate with capable sailors, as well as the fire cavalry who are proficient in arson, just like a hedgehog, Zhana that bleeds, Yan Liang's water village was burned to the ground in a few days, and even the water intake of the big camp was seriously affected, and the camp by the river still needs to transport water from the rear, which shows how bad the situation is.
In the absence of enough water troops, Yan Liang could only let the Fog Hidden Dao people cover the river bank with clouds and mist, and at the same time let the Thunder Eagle fly into the sky to patrol, and then send the Ghost Hidden to infiltrate the enemy camp to listen to the news.
It's a pity that there is a master on the other side, although the appearance is like a child, but he has an amazing magical power, the fiery ruby on his forehead like the third eye can penetrate the void, and the radius of ten miles is like a palm in his eyes, if he is fully prepared, he can even look directly at a hundred miles, so everything Yan Liang does is in the eyes of the other party, and he can't hide it from them at all, which makes Yan Liang very passive.
Fortunately, although the imperial court is unable to provide more materials and soldiers, there are a lot of capable people in the Tianshi Building, and as long as they have a little vacancy, these people are willing to work hard, relying on these cheap cannon fodder and a steady stream of recruits, Yan Liang can continue to support.
"Master!" Yan Xu quietly left the barracks and saw Xuanyun Lao Dao, who he hadn't seen for a long time, in a small forest a few miles away.
"Good apprentice, it seems that the world will change greatly. Xuanyun said to Yan Xu with a rare seriousness.
On that day, Yan Xu used the purple qi jade talisman to contact the ancestor who served in the Divine Court, but the information he got was incomplete, mainly because the hole in Yan Xu's mind interfered with this transmission to the soul.
Fortunately, Yan Xu informed the master in time, and after Xuanyun Lao Dao found that the little distraction on the portrait of the ancestor had disappeared in the ancestral hall, he immediately knew that the situation was wrong, so he held a large-scale ritual in the Ziyun Temple, gathered the strength of the entire Taoist temple and reluctantly contacted the ancestor master in the divine court and learned more details.
"The underworld is plotting to occupy the human world and use a plan to block the Divine Court?!" Yan Xu shouted in disbelief, this news was really terrifying.
Now that the cultivators of the mortal world are in decline, and they encounter troubled times, how can they resist the underworld comparable to the divine court?
"The human world alone will definitely not be able to stop the long-planned underworld, so it is necessary to open the passage from the Divine Court to the mortal world. Xuanyun said to Yan Xu, but then he was embarrassed.
"But back then, there were signs of loosening the ghost gate sealed by the Langda Temple, and a group of old guys I contacted originally planned to open up the passage of the Divine Court, but now we must first suppress the Ghost Gate, otherwise as soon as the Ghost Gate is opened, this world will become a ghost domain without waiting for the Divine Court to make a move. ”
"What do you need me to do?" Yan Xu said with a frown.
"Good apprentice, although your cultivation is good, but your experience is poor, you can't intervene in sealing the ghost gate, and opening up the passage of the Divine Court is not something that can be done by one person, so you go find some cannon fodder to find out the situation first. "Xuanyun Old Dao doesn't care what happens to other people, as long as his precious apprentice is fine, if it weren't for Yan Xu's practice of hiding and transposing, he wouldn't even want Yan Xu to interfere in anything.
Yan Xu didn't have the spirit of sacrificing himself fearlessly, so he nodded yes, and he had already found a cannon fodder target.
Returning to the camp to tell Yan Liang about this, Yan Liang smiled, and then dropped the cup, of course, this is not a cup for a sign, but a collapse.
But unless he's really crazy, he has to do what he should do.
The royal enshrinement, the great eunuch Zhang Liang, and the black-clothed old man of the Royal Forest Army all shouted together, and Yan Liang processed the matter to become more reasonable and more dangerous.
After listening to this, the expressions of these people were similar to those before Yan Liang, but until now, everyone's ability to bear has improved a lot, so Yan Liang's words that would have been dismissed as nonsense before were quickly accepted by everyone, and they believed it three times, and then reported it to the court by their own means.
Because of the sealing of the ghost gate, the famous real masters in the whole world were shocked, after all, this is not a trivial matter, nor can it be completed by one faction, so the matter is easy to confirm, unless this group of worldly masters collectively fool the court, otherwise the authenticity of this matter is terrifying.
After confirming this matter, the current emperor directly pulled over, if it weren't for the imperial doctor's strength, it would be difficult for Chen Gui to succeed to the throne directly, and there would be no need to continue fighting.
Today, the emperor is not stupid, as soon as the ghost door is opened, it is not only his person who died, Chen Gui also did not run, so he hurriedly sent a messenger to Wuhu to discuss the matter.
Chen Gui was also stunned after hearing this, but he also had his own sources, and after the Wu family confirmed it, he had to touch his nose and admit that the war between the two sides with more than 100,000 casualties finally stopped, which also made the imperial court breathe a sigh of relief, after all, he was beaten before, and he was about to be beaten out of the psychological shadow.
However, this is not without a price, after all, Chen Guo is still the lord of the world, this is the responsibility he needs to bear, let Chen Gui make a move, but he must pay a certain price, so the imperial court issued a decree to recognize Chen Gui's identity as the king of the Five Lakes, and allowed Chen Gui to build a country with the Five Lakes and the country name Qing.
Of course, everyone knows that this is a stopgap measure, and when the crisis is resolved, both sides will still have their brains out.
After the matter was settled, the armies of the two sides faced each other across the river, each retaining 30,000 horses, but the remaining army was not lifted, but retreated to the rear to expand the military cantonment, after all, the grain and grass consumed by the army was simply terrifying, even if the two sides had more than half of the Chen country, and the other had the five lakes that were familiar with the world, they were also a little unbearable, and they did not fight at the moment, which made both sides breathe a sigh of relief.
