Chapter 412 The vast water in Kunshan is desolate, and it is when the soldiers die in battle
(a)
Liu Mingxiang remembers that the day the camp arrived in Katse, it was the most common rainy day in the northwest.
The sky was gray and cloudy, and the clouds were as thick as thousands of miles.
Occasionally, there is a whitening place, as if the sunlight is about to shine through, but in fact it is just a useless struggle.
Looking out over the skyline, the gray prairie meets the grayer clouds, forming a chaotic patch, making the dimly lit world even more bleak and desolate.
The wind in Qingjiang has always been not very cold, but at that time, it was wrapped in raindrops, which also made people feel cold.
I don't know when the whistling of the wind sounded over the wilderness, like the howling of thousands of horses.
The rain kept falling, but instead of thinning the clouds in the sky, they became thicker and deeper, as if the sky was about to fall.
There were some flocks of birds in this area, and they also fled in a hurry, leaving a vague shadow in the distance. All the alien beasts and creatures within a radius of a hundred miles fled like a great migration, and the sound of messy stampedes came from a distance in a hurry.
What remained near Kaze City was only a strong and extremely powerful killing intent.
More than 1,000 Horn warriors retreated into the city after a tentative attack.
On one side was the tall city wall with a huge light mask, and on the other side were dozens of military formations composed of more than 20,000 monks.
There are also rows of large siege weapons and machinery behind the military formation.
No one was noisy, and there was a scene of slaughter.
The ice milling yard's flying boat was still behind the large equipment, and the flying boat was loaded with all kinds of supplies, floating low in mid-air waiting to be loaded and unloaded.
Liu Mingxiang could also feel the coldness and suffocation of the pavement through the transparent window wall of the flying boat.
Everyone on the flying boat crowded into the cockpit, watching the battle so nervously that the hull of the ship shook slightly.
"Look there!" Tang Xian said, pointing to a place in the military formation.
(b)
Everyone looked at it together - Li Yunjing was wearing a white battle robe, stepping on his sword and soaring into the air, killing with a sword from the black oppressive crowd, flying to the forefront of the human army like a white eagle, standing alone in front of Kaze City.
"Your Excellency Lonely Wind,"
She shouted, "Do you dare to show up and fight with Li?"
At that time, Liu Mingxiang knew that Gu Fengye was the main general of Kaze City, but he couldn't figure out why Li Yunjing risked the danger to provoke in front of the two armies.
"Calling the formation,"
Tang Xian said with some excitement: "Have you ever heard of the battle? Before the battle, the masters of the two armies called the battle, and whoever instigated it first would have to lose their morale. What is the emphasis on fighting a war? Who dares to lose morale without starting a war?"
Li Ran said: "Then it doesn't make sense, let's be the coach as soon as we start?"
"This," Tang Xian scratched his head, "I don't understand this." ”
Soon, someone in the city replied in a stiff Terran language: "Hongran natives, low-class races, are they also worthy of my general?"
Li Yunjing said: "If Gu Fengye can defeat me, the 20,000 generals of my World Camp will immediately withdraw from Qingjiang and never take half a step." If you don't dare to come out, my human race has a 10,000-year-old shrunken turtle and will send it to Your Excellency. ”
"Kill chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife!"
The words fell, and the formation of Kaze City opened a corner, and a horn tribesman with purple horns on his head and a whirlwind on the soles of his feet came out, "The lone wind feather of the Gale Wind Clan is here to fight!"
He was halfway out, surrounded by a whirlwind. The whirlwind was connected to the earth, and wherever it passed, the earth was torn apart and shook incessantly. This is just an unintentional abnormality, which shows that this person has a deep path in the law of resisting the wind.
Of course, later Liu Mingxiang stepped into the realm of heaven and man, and he had another opinion on this battle.
Normally, the combat power of an ordinary purple horn is equivalent to two ordinary celestial realm cultivators of the human race.
But Li Yunjing is the strongest sword cultivator among all kinds of cultivators of the human race, and her Zhenhai Beast is still a famous sword owl.
This spirit beast, which is famous for its sword-wielding, is proficient in several powerful and terrifying sword powers.
Li Yunjing is extremely talented, and he has the help of a sword owl, and at the same time, there is no difference in the mana consumed to control a thousand swords, ten thousand swords and one sword, and his combat power is far from being comparable to that of ordinary monks.
She also has a fourth-order superb magic weapon, called [Tibetan Sword Boat], which has thousands of sword magic weapons hidden in the boat, and dozens of sword magic weapons.
With the Tibetan Sword Boat as the core and the sword magic weapon as the array, she created the [Boat Traveling Thousand Sword Array], and her power was extremely terrifying.
As early as when he first entered Qingjiang, he used this sword formation to kill two purple horns alone in the wilderness, and became famous in a battle. This is also the reason why Chu Shangu knew that she only had the cultivation of the early stage of the Heaven and Man Realm, but still gave her the position of the commander of the World Camp.
The lonely wind feather came wrapped in a tornado, and Li Yunjing's [Hidden Sword Boat] had already been laid down. At the moment when he crossed the middle line of the two armies, a huge crack opened in the earth, and the [Tibetan Sword Boat] with a length of dozens of zhang rose into the sky.
Thousands of sharp swords swarmed out, besieging Lone Wind Feather in the sword array.
Gu Fengyu held a bluestone in his hand, held it high above his head, and shouted a short horn language, and hundreds of huge wind blades instantly burst out from the bluestone.
The Purple Horn and the Heavenly and Human Realm cultivators were all creatures who had touched the edge of the Great Dao Law, and these sharp wind blades rushed towards the sword arrays scattered all around, carrying the Wind Devouring Law of the Path.
Unexpectedly, the moment the first wind blade collided with the sword, the wind blade was cut in half.
Immediately afterwards, "bang bang bang", hundreds of wind blades were cut and broken one after another, turning into scattered fragments of wind, smashing on the ground, hitting the ground with a sonorous sound, smashing down a large hole dozens of feet deep, and the rain and mud splashed in the air, like a torrential rain.
Gu Fengyu's face was stunned, knowing that he had been fooled. The purple horn and purple mangs flashed on the top of the head, the tornado swelled suddenly, the wind speed reached the extreme, and dozens of miles around the city of Kaze were actually shrouded in the mud and dust rolled up by the wind, and the sky was full of yellow fluttering and dirty, and the five fingers could not be seen.
But the lonely wind feather hid in the mud and dust, turning into a shadowless wind, looking for a gap in the tide of swords and bees to escape.
"Where to go!"
Li Yunjing snorted and lightly nodded at the Tibetan Sword Boat.
The body of the Tibetan sword boat shook, and suddenly appeared above the lonely wind and rain.
Li Yunjing tapped his toes and stood at the head of the Tibetan Sword Boat.
In the Tibetan sword boat, there is a woman's figure flickering, and Li Yunjing is in the same shape, as if they are one, and the sense of mystery is sharply increased.
Under Li Yunjing's feet was a huge sword boat, a hundred thousand silver swords, and a purple horn that fled in a hurry in a tornado.
She lowered her eyes coldly, waved her snow-white handsome robe, and said again: "Spin!"
It is a thousand swords in unison, turning into tens of thousands of flash silver threads, and instantly stirring the lone wind feather into minced meat.
"You dare!"
At this time, there was an angry shout in the city of Kaze, and dozens of huge beams of light shot out from the high head of the city wall, and seven chased towards Li Yunjing, the head of the Tibetan sword boat.
The other three went straight to the body of the lonely wind feather boat, blasted out three gaps in the vast sword rain, and the lonely wind feather found the gap and escaped in embarrassment as a wisp of thin wind.
When he returned to the city, he had already cut off an arm, his body was covered with purple blood, and his face was as white as a dead man, "This Li Yunjing really deserves his reputation." ”
Li Yunjing calmly avoided the seven beams of light, and then stood at the head of the Tibetan sword boat, his white clothes fluttering, and a sword pointed at the head of the city, shouting:
"Will Lone Wind Wild dare to fight me?"
The city of Kaze was silent for a long time.
A little, hundreds of red lights flashed on the city wall, and the killing machine appeared.
Li Yunjing laughed loudly, and even the people and boats disappeared in an instant.
Hundreds of red lights fell into the air, booming loudly, but to no avail.
When Li Yunjing reappeared, he was already in the Terran army, and he laughed loudly: "Jiao Clan child, but so, we are going to win this battle!"
After that, he pointed at Kaze City, "Kill!"
The Terran army drank loudly, shaking the earth and shaking the sky.
On the flying boat of the Ice Milling Courtyard team, several girls shouted excitedly.
"My mother," Tang Xian said, "what a pleasure!"
Liu Mingxiang didn't know what Wei Buer was thinking at that time.
But she can guess today - he should be thinking about how Li Yunjing is so powerful, how can he escape the clutches.
For Liu Mingxiang, she will never forget this scene.
This is also the opening ceremony of the Camp and the Battle of Kaze.
It was also the first time she came to the frontal battlefield and the first time she saw Li Yunjing make a move.
Li Yunjing's white robe, thousands of sharp swords, hidden swords and Shenzhou, Li Yunjing's swaying freely, full of pride, swallowing mountains and rivers, have become an indelible memory in her mind.
(c)
Li Yunjing waved his arm and pointed at it, and his white sleeves blew the wind, which became the clarion call for the descendant camp to launch an attack on Kaze City.
The victory just now and the avoidance of fighting by the lonely wind and wilderness greatly boosted the morale of the whole army.
The tiger and wolf are like a flood, and the strong wind blows the horns of the devil's head. The vast water in Kunshan is miserable, and it is when the soldiers died in battle.
The warriors shouted slogans of victory, and the earth shook with the shouts.
Nearly 100 third-order siege spirit stone cannons and nearly 1,000 second-order siege cannons bombarded the city wall of Kaze indiscriminately, and the spiritual cannonballs fell like rain.
The Incarnation Camp was divided into dozens of phalanxes, each with a giant column in the center.
The imposing monks each held a red magic bead in their hands, injected mana into the giant pillar, and then aggregated, transformed, and amplified through the giant pillar, turning into a variety of colorful and amazing high-level spells, all of which were thrown into the city wall of Kaze.
The protective light shield of Kekaze City is like a transparent iron wall, although it has been smashed out of dense white pits and pits, constantly shaking, and the circles of ripples are like waves, but it is always strong in mid-air.
In the initial standoff, the main battle between the offensive and defensive sides is the attrition of high-level spells and defensive masks.
However, the phalanx of Terran warriors all use the mana of the monks as energy, and if they continue to attack for a period of time, the monks in the battle array will inevitably run out of mana.
The giant magic weapons and machinery that are besieging the city will also overheat and wear out.
At this time, the phalanx of monks who were substituted in the rear, as well as the spare siege weapons, would take turns to come up.
Whenever such a handover moment, the horns will seize the opportunity to fight back.
Large, dazzling pillars of spell light pierce the Terran monk's defensive shield.
The black celestial stone fell with a bang, and the dense and scorching fire rain dyed the sky red.
From the ground, huge cones emerge without warning, with circles of lines, hideous, like a demon escaping from hell.
With this came roars, shouts, and cries of terror.
At the beginning of the war, the Terrans' offensive and defensive transitions were not skillful and flexible enough, and casualties were inevitable.
Li Yunjing, Chu Yan, and several other Heavenly and Human Realm cultivators rushed into the air, all of them harnessing the Fa to block the counterattack of the Jiao Clan, until the rotation of the defensive passport of the Descendant Camp was successful.
Of course, there are times when the protective formation of Kaze City needs to rest.
At this time, the Horn Clan will form several elite arrays, arch the huge cone horn magic weapon and rush out of the city, launching a fierce attack on the Terran camp.
The Terrans will also seize this opportunity to destroy the walls of Kaze and the formation is critical.
At the beginning, it was a confrontation between the formation and the formation.
Later, the battle formations of the two sides got closer and closer, and it became a hand-to-hand fighting method and close hand-to-hand combat.
The monks of the Heaven and Man Realm and the Earth Bridge Realm will fight with the Purple Horn and the Red Horn in mid-air.
Close to the ground, there is the battle between the Psychic Realm, the Open Door Realm monks, and the Yellow Horn and the Blue Horn.
According to the analysis of the scouts of the descending camp, there are about 4,000 green horns, nearly 1,000 yellow horns, more than 60 red horns, and three purple horns in Kaze City.
As for the incarnation camp, there are more than 20,000 monks in the Open Door Realm, more than 3,000 monks in the Psychic Realm, more than 200 Earth Bridge Realms, and seven Heavenly and Human Realm monks.
Under normal circumstances, one blue horn can confront five to six Open Door Realm monks head-on, Yellow Horn can face four psychic realms, red horns can deal with three Earth Bridge realms, and purple horns can deal with two celestial realms.
In terms of combat power on paper, the two sides are about the same. Kaze City may have an advantage, as they can also use the defensive formation of Kaze City.
But Li Yunjing is a huge variable, and Gu Fengye, as the strongest combat force in Kaze City, can barely fight against her, but it can't support it for too long.
The Barbarian Heavy is slightly weaker than the Lonely Wind Field, and it is still possible to fight against three or four Terran Heavenly and Human Realm cultivators.
The lone wind feather can face two heavenly and human realms.
In this way, in the duel between the Purple Horn and the Heavenly and Human Realm, Kaze City is slightly weaker, and it often needs to be filled by the formation in the city.
However, in battles of other levels, the Descendant Camp will suffer some losses, but it can maintain balance by virtue of its numerical advantage.
When Liu Mingxiang drove a flying boat to the front line to deliver supplies, he witnessed hand-to-hand combat between the monks of the two sides several times.
I only saw dense spells one after another in front of the formation, the sound of bombardment, screams, and angry shouts was deafening, and the broken limbs and flesh flew in the air, which was really miserable.
Hand-to-hand combat will not last, the large array of Katse City will soon be repaired, and the warriors of the Horn Clan will retreat to the city under the cover of formation attacks.
Both sides re-enter the state of high-level spells and protective shields.
In order to break through the Jiao people's protective array, Li Yunjing once ordered the formation monks to secretly cast a fifth-order meteorite formation behind the military array, but halfway through the cover, the Jiao people saw through it, and used the high-level formation in the city to destroy the meteorite array, causing huge losses to the descent camp.
However, Li Yunjing ignored the opposition of the World Camp Council, insisted on continuing to cast, and built it openly. Sure enough, the high-level formations in Kaze City were not infinitely usable.
The horned people had no choice but to take the initiative to rush out of the city and rush to the place where the formation was cast, and such a forced attack would always cause additional casualties.
The first ten months of the offensive and defensive battles passed in such bloody confrontations.
For this kind of siege, Chu Yan strongly objected, and proposed that when the horns attacked, they could avoid the enemy's edge and reduce losses. Later, Chu Wen also stood on Chu Yan's side, and the council became a state of four to three. But during the war, Li Yunjing had absolute power.
Her idea is extremely hard, even if she is held accountable after the war, she will take down the city of Kaze as soon as possible.
As a result, both sides suffered heavy losses.
There are probably more than 1,000 green horns, more than 100 yellow horns, and more than 10 red horns dead in the city of Kaze. The Descent Camp lost more than 6,000 Open Door Realm monks, more than 400 Psychic Realm monks, and more than 30 Earth Bridge Realm monks.
(iv)
Every time he went to the front to deliver supplies, Liu Mingxiang would see soldiers transporting the wounded or corpses to the rear.
She looked at the bloody picture, thinking about what they looked like when they were still alive, and often wondered why the Terrans and the Horned Demon had to fight, why they had to fight to the death.
Just let the Jiao people stay in Qingjiang, what's not to do? They have no homeland, no place to live, and they are also very pitiful.
Aren't the human race and the demon race, and the barbarian beasts, and the East China Sea demon cultivators also able to live in peace?
She asked Xiuxiu.
"No," Xiuxiu said, "Whether it's the Demon Clan, the Demon Cultivator, or the Savage Beast, they are all the masters of the Hongran Realm for millions of years, and we know them more than ourselves. But the Horns are otherworldly invaders, and we, not even our ancestors, have ever dealt with them. We don't know anything about what the horns really think in their hearts. Who can guarantee that after they settle down in Qingjiang, they will not have any greater attempts. Who knows, this race with extremely strong combat power will bring us annihilation?"
Liu Mingxiang remembered that after listening to it, he turned his head to look at Wei Buer.
She remembered Wei Buer's expression now, a little dignified, and seemed a little helpless.
In the face of the bloody war, she could only rejoice that she was assigned to the logistics transport unit.
(5)
Speaking of logistical transportation, it is worth mentioning that in the long first nine months after the start of the war, there were no ambush battles, as Xiuxiu said.
Not once.
At the beginning, the team responsible for supporting logistics and transportation was very tight.
Because the Quambi Mountains are too suitable for ambushes.
Tall and stout trees, lush shrubs growing everywhere are the best shelters.
Chu Zhi hid in a dark corner every day, waiting for the Jiao people to show their feet.
The search team left behind by Li Yunjing turned over every inch of Quimby's land twice, but never found the slightest sign of danger.
The strings that are always taut will always be loosened one day.
After about six months of siege, the search party let their guard down a bit.
They are still patrolling the mountains in the districts, but the intensity of daily searches has gradually decreased to two-thirds of what it used to be, and then to one-third.
Chu Zhi would occasionally run to the front line and suddenly appear as a surprise soldier - once, he teamed up with Chu Wen and almost killed the lone man.
The team in charge of transportation, as well as the brigade guarding the transportation team, also gradually relaxed.
During this time, the Ice Grinding Yard team became an old fritter on the logistics line and began to carry out rotational transportation.
Although Liu Mingxiang, who is a driving monk, has no one to replace, the rest of the people, Tang Xian, Chu Yue, Li Ran, Fuji and Xiuxiu - this is a rotation mode adopted under Xiuxiu's strong insistence. For this reason, she even learned from Chu Yue the control of all the formations in the flying boat.
The advantage of adopting such a rotation system is that, except for Liu Mingxiang, everyone else has more or less independent and controllable time.
During that time, Liu Mingxiang remembered that everyone was seizing every opportunity to improve their cultivation.
Chu Yue transformed another flying boat. Of course, because of the time, only the hidden formation was arranged on it.
Liu Mingxiang asked her why she did this extra thing, and she said that it was Xiuxiu's suggestion - just in case.
Wei Buer was even busier.
Every time he came back from a mission, or when he took a turn to rest, Wei Buer would do two things, one was to go to the library of the descending camp to check the materials, and read a large number of materials, according to the steward of the library pavilion, he was about to borrow all the books on the strange and popular knowledge of the monk world.
The second is to go to the bazaars and auction houses in Nanlongcheng to purchase all kinds of things. Or, go to a more secluded place.
No one knows what he's going to do.
(f)
For a while, Wei Buer and Chu Yue got quite close.
Chu Yue specially changed positions with Xiuxiu for this purpose.
At that time, Liu Mingxiang drove the boat in front, and the two of them discussed things in the back.
Liu Mingxiang overheard the conversation between the two people - this is to blame Ju Yi, as Liu Mingxiang and the sky ray cooperate more and more tacitly, Ju Yi seems to have begun to accept her induction. Even gave her some magical powers that could be used passively, and her facial features became more and more sensitive, far exceeding the sensory power that her cultivation should have.
Finally, one day, she clearly heard the conversation between Wei Buer and Chu Yue in the back cabin.
It was one day in the eighth month after the siege began.
The reason for the change of guard between Chu Yue and Xiuxiu was that the formation on the flying boat needed to be maintained.
But in fact, after the Sky Ray Flying Boat set off, she didn't go to the formation cabin at all - Liu Mingxiang could hear it clearly.
As soon as the flying boat sailed out of the descent camp, she pulled Wei Buji to the cargo hold.
"I have the latest news," she said, "and the ancient city of Kaze is about to open in two months at most." ”
Liu Mingxiang didn't know what the ancient city of Kaze was, and what its relationship was with the city of Kaze. But obviously, the secret between the two is not to be missed.
"Do you know how to get in?" asked Wei Buji.
"I need to make a trip to Kaze City," Chu Yue said, "You have to help me." ”
"I can't help that—especially now that the Camp of the Descent and the city of Kaze are fighting. ”
"I've got a good 'thing', would you like to take a look at it......"
"I'm kidding, you're too serious," Wei Buer said, "I must go to the ancient city of Kaze—I have to resurrect Mu Wanfeng." ”
Only then did Chu Yue say: "Time is very tight, we must hurry." After this battle, don't you want to leave? Hurry up and get what you need. When you enter the ancient city, you can remove Li Yunjing's aura mark, and you don't have to come back. ”
What is 'something'?
Didn't Mu Wanfeng die in Qinnan a long time ago?
Wei Buji is leaving, never coming back, and where is he going?
Hearing this conversation, Liu Mingxiang felt that his curiosity had reached the sky.
She wanted to know the answers to this series of questions immediately.
But after thinking about it, she decided to continue pretending to be deaf and dumb - perhaps so that she could learn more.
It occurred to her that she would never do this before.
She's growing up little by little.
(g)
After this conversation, Chu Yue and Wei Buer took the time to leave once when they went to the front line to deliver supplies.
When he came back, he was the only one left.
Liu Mingxiang asked him where Chu Yue went.
Wei Buer told her that Chu Yue had gone to the southern wilderness area for personal matters and would be back soon.
But Liu Mingxiang clearly felt that Chu Yue went west and entered Kaze City, Ju Yi told her so.
About a month later, Chu Yue returned.
She found Wei Buer for the first time, and the two of them were still communicating in the back cabin - unaware that their conversations were all overheard by others.
Now, Liu Mingxiang can probably imagine the scene of two people communicating in the rear cabin-
Chu Yue took out a cloth bag from his arms. She opened the cloth bag, and there were several pieces of crumbs inside.
"What is this?" asked Wei Buji.
"Fragments of the skin of the Blood Sacrifice Clan. ”
"This thing will allow me to enter the ancient city?"
"Yes, you have it in your hand, you don't have to do anything, you can go in," Chu Yue said, "But the premise is that when the ancient city is opened, you have to be within the range that the ancient city can sense." ”
"Can you be more specific......
"I mean, when the ancient city opened, we had to stay in the city of Kaze. ”
"There's only one month left," Wei Bu'er said, "I don't think we'll be able to defeat Kaze City." ”
"If we can't beat it, the two of us sneak in early. ”
"I always have to lose money when I make a deal with you. ”
"Think about the benefits you might get in the ancient city—you might soon be able to break through the Underground Bridge Realm. ”
Wei Buer said: "I have never had such good luck. ”
He took the cloth bag and roughly counted, "How did you get so many pieces?
"I found it from Gu Yousheng," Chu Yue said, "Who knows where he got it from—the fewer people who enter the ancient city, the better, of course I'll serve it in a pot......"
Gu Yousheng, this name is already very unfamiliar.
Before Liu Mingxiang arrived in the northwest, he had seen this person in the Yunyin Sect, and at that time, he was still a senior disciple of the master of the Li Courtyard of the Compliance Academy. Later, I don't know what happened, and I went to the Valley of the Puppets and rebelled.
That's not the point.
The point is that Chu Yue still has extra fragments in his hands.
Liu Mingxiang knew that she shouldn't have restless thoughts, but she was really curious. What is in the ancient city, it can bring the dead back to life, and it can also allow Wei Buji to break through to the underground bridge realm.
What if you get a shard? Will your avenue also light up with a glimmer of light, so that you can continue to walk forward. She really wanted her mother to know that she could do it.
She didn't ask for much, just a superfluous fragment.
That night, she had complete insomnia.
(viii)
These were the nine months since the beginning of the war, and the front line was miserable.
The rear is busy and fulfilling, and it's also safe.
Such a state ends in the tenth month.
That is, the month that Wei Buer and Chu Yue said that the ancient city would open.
The Horned Demon of Kaze City definitely did not expect that the siege battle would be moving towards a white-hot end without warning in this month.
And the flying boats that are busy in the Kunbi Mountains must not have imagined that the catastrophe is coming.
Until much later, Liu Mingxiang could only speculate about what happened at that time based on the records of the war record monks.
She often thought that it would be nice if Zhang Mei, who was in the Cloud Hidden Sect at the time, was still alive. She could tell her what the Cloud Yin Sect had experienced during that period of time.
She also thought that if she could meet with Fuji and Xiuxiu again, she must ask them how the two of them came up with those incredible methods.
————
In the past two days, there has been a big material in the unit, and I have worked overtime all day, so I try to keep it updated.
