Chapter Eighty-Eight: Garrisoning Qilian
Back in his cave, Li Qiyue packed up all the things he could take away, and continued to train spiritual pets such as the Jade-faced Mantis, Red-crowned Purple Kite, and Golden-threaded Ice Silkworm. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info tidy up the medicine garden in his spare time, and sometimes go back to visit the fellow Taoist friends he knows, among which there are four Taoist friends who came out of the exotic space and successfully advanced into the foundation building period, such as Yu Chong, Teng Qing, Yan Jing and the gray-haired Yan Su and others.
When it was time for the gathering of Yunya, Li Qiyue rushed to Yunya early, reported his name, and after registering, he was led to a special place to wait.
This time, Li Qiyue was an eye-opener, the people who came to gather were not only cultivators in the Qi cultivation period like him, but also many cultivators in the foundation building period, and more than 20 cultivators in the Dan period, on the small cloud cliff, but in half a day, it was full of cultivators, and he roughly estimated that there were more than 800 cultivators.
Li Qiyue felt that he was like an ant, in front of many powerful people, he couldn't even breathe smoothly, he just meditated cross-legged and hung his head, but he didn't dare to deal with anyone.
In the evening, only a call was heard in front, and everyone set off to the mountain gate in an orderly manner, passing through the mountain gate, and came to an open area. I think everyone should already know the reason, the Northern Demon Dao has been ready to move decades ago, they want to expand, want to annex our resource-rich Central Plains Kyushu, this wolf ambition, is not formed in a day, after nearly two thousand years of recuperation, now they are in their heyday. But all the cultivators in our Central Plains and Kyushu are not a bad breed, the great enemy is present, we must share the same hatred, and the Demon Elimination Guardian Dao is originally the responsibility and obligation of all our cultivators in the Central Plains and Kyushu. In a few days, we will join up with the teams of other sects in Kyushu in the Central Plains, and in order to prevent each sect from taking care of its own interests, this time it will still be the same as before, disrupting each sect and forming a random team. Here, on behalf of my Taixumen, I would like to announce a few precautions: first, we must unconditionally obey the distribution, second, we must unconditionally obey the order, and third, whoever dares to disobey the order will be ...... dead."
After Qi Fengzi finished speaking, at this time, more than ten big boats appeared out of thin air, each boat had one or two cultivators in the Dan Formation Period, nearly ten cultivators in the Foundation Building Period, and the rest of the Qi Cultivation Stage disciples boarded the ship separately according to the guidelines...... Three days later, they came to a fortress stronghold on the outskirts of Jiugu Mountain.
Li Qiyue, who had seen the big scene of everyone gathering in Taixu Gate before, was even more stunned at this time, only to see that there were cultivators everywhere in front of him, if there was a ten-meter-long pole to pick up and turn around, at least two disciples of the foundation building period would be encountered.
According to the procedure, first focus on the conversation, the content of the conversation is similar to what Qi Fengzi said, and then assign the team to which each person belongs.
According to the gossip that Li Qiyue got from the conversation with everyone, there were a total of 12 teams this time, namely nine teams from the Jiugu Mountain and Nine Great Sects, and one team from every three states in the Central Plains Kyushu. In order to balance the strength of all aspects, the reorganized team is still twelve, with reference to the establishment of secular troops, each team has about 1,000 people, which is a legion. Each corps shall have one corps commander and two deputy corps commanders; the corps commander shall have ten company-level establishments, one company commander and two deputy company commanders; and a number of squads under the company-level establishment, each with one corps commander and one deputy commander. Positions with the word "long" are basically arranged by their cultivation.
Li Qiyue found the camp where his team was located according to the sign in his hand, in the camp, he actually met Wei Aotian, a double cultivator who had dealt with him before, at this time his cultivation had advanced to the middle stage of foundation building, to his surprise, Wei Aotian turned out to be the captain of his team, and his double cultivation partner Ji Linglong had also successfully built the foundation decades ago and successfully advanced to the early stage of foundation building, the two were the captain and deputy captain, and the team had a total of fourteen people, responsible for logistics support. Among the fourteen people, in addition to Wei Aotian and his wife, there was another cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, surnamed Tu, called Tu Cheng, and the rest were all disciples in the Qi cultivation period.
At first glance, when everyone heard about logistics support and transportation, they thought that this was a peaceful task, but in fact, people who knew the inside story knew that before the two armies officially started fighting, what was destroyed in advance was the enemy's logistics support function, especially this time the enemy was the northern magic road, and what it lacked was all kinds of strategic materials, especially the lack of a large number of medium and high-level ore resources.
Wei Aotian failed to recognize Li Qiyue, after all, Li Qiyue was wearing Yin and Yang Ruyi at that time, but Wei Aotian's memory was not bad, and after seeing Li Qiyue's report, he smiled and said: "Decades ago, my wife and I met your cousin in a small town called Yuyang in southern Henan, and later worked together to kill a demon python in Bailang Lake, and then after breaking up, I never saw him again, and I still owed him a little love at that time." I wonder if you haven't met him lately?"
Li Qiyue laughed and said: "Seven or eight years ago, when I went down the mountain to practice, I did meet my cousin, he just mentioned the noble couple and said that the noble couple were affectionate, but other than that, he didn't say much. ”
"Oh, Li Daoyou, if there is anything you need my help with in the future, just say it, I will try to help. ”
"Thank you, seniors. ”
Three days later, Li Qiyue's Seventh Army was transferred to the northwest Liangzhou garrison, because of the high-level Lingbao-level magic weapon as a manned tool, they came to Liangzhou three months later, stationed in the Qilian Mountain, Qilian Mountain stretches for 100,000 miles, its various resources are rich, it has always been valued by the cultivators of the Jiugu Mountain, and it is also the place where the previous Demon Dao must be harassed and plundered before the large-scale invasion, and it is also the second barrier between the Central Plains Kyushu and the Northern Demon Dao.
To the north of Qilian Mountain, there are hundreds of thousands of square miles of fertile soil, which is under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou, and there are ten thousand mountains to the north of Liangzhou that are dozens of times larger than the scale of Qilian Mountain, and this ten thousand mountains are the first barrier to prevent the Devil from invading Kyushu in the Central Plains from the northwest. If it is in normal times, all the sects in the Central Plains and Kyushu have sent people to enter Wanren Mountain to dig resources, and there are also people from the Demon Dao who come here to mine resources. If it is in wartime, any place in the territory of Wanren Mountain may become one of the main battlefields, and it is not known how many cultivators have shed their blood here and died here.
Therefore, in addition to the newly stationed Li Qiyue's legion on Qilian Mountain, there is also a legion stationed here all the year round, and this legion is about 500 people in Qilian Mountain, which is under the command of Jiugu Mountain. The proportion of cultivators in the Qilian Mountain Legion who were above the foundation building period was much higher than that of Li Qiyue's legion, and more of them were mercenary cultivators, and their remuneration was rich enough to meet their daily cultivation needs.
In Kyushu in the Central Plains, there are four legions of the same nature as the Qilian Mountain Legion, which are stationed in the northwest, northeast, southwest and southeast of Kyushu in the Central Plains, the first two legions are guarding against the invasion of the Northern Demon Dao, and the last two legions are guarding against the Southern Righteous Path plots.
Of course, they will not stick to this place, when they encounter an irresistible force, they can choose the opportunity to retreat, after all, the cultivators in the Nine Lonely Mountains are the main force of the Great Battle, and they can be regarded as the vanguard at most.
Li Qiyue, who had only been stationed for 10 days, received a task to immediately go to a mine in the hinterland of the northeast to meet this relatively remote mining team and protect the safe transport of the mined minerals back to the headquarters in Qilian Mountain.
Wei Aotian and the others didn't say a word, and immediately summoned all the personnel to set off.
Half a month later, everyone finally arrived at the target mine of Wanren Mountain, there was only one cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, and the other two were at the thirteenth level of the Qi training period, and the rest of the miners were nearly 300 people, all of whom ranged from the second to fourth level of the Qi training period, among which the cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building was the mine manager, surnamed Qin, called Qin Tian, and they were already ready to retreat at this time.
After Wei Aotian revealed his identity, everyone immediately set off to retreat in the direction of Qilian Mountain.
After leaving the mine for half a day, I saw five people walking in front of me blocking the way. When Li Qiyue saw it, he was immediately surprised, it turned out that the person who came was indeed a person from the Demon Dao, and except for one of the five people who was in the early stage of foundation building, the other four were all in the middle stage of foundation building. And although there are a large number of people on Wei Aotian's side, only Wei Aotian, Ji Linglong, Tu Cheng and Mine Chief Qin Tian can really compete with the other party, and the rest of the people are all Qi cultivation period cultivators, as the saying goes, ants bite elephants to death, but in the cultivation world, there is a difference of one level, and the strength comparison is not a level to measure, if there is no special means, no matter how many Qi cultivation period disciples attack a foundation building period cultivator, they can only act as cannon fodder.
Wei Aotian didn't look back, and ordered: "Qin Daoyou, you and I stop them in front, Linglong, you and Tu Daoyou are supporting in the back, with the strength of the four of us, it is not much worse than the five of them." Hua Daoyou, you lead everyone diagonally and quickly bypass. In order to prevent me from stopping them here, Li Daoyou, you pick two people to assist your palace. ”
When the surnamed Hua heard this, his spirits perked up, and he led everyone to fly over quickly, everyone knew in their hearts that Wei Aotian and others might not be able to withstand it, at this time, they only hated their father and mother for having two feet, and under the order of the surname Hua, everyone fled with the surname Hua like a swarm.
Li Qiyue told the two people around him to retreat one step later, but the two were willing to stop, because the scene was chaotic and the noise was loud, the two simply pretended not to hear him. He saw that the cultivation of these two people was the thirteenth level of the Great Perfection realm in the Qi cultivation period, and he didn't say much, since these two people were role models, and the others were not easy to get along with, so he simply didn't expect them to assist his palace, if it was really impossible to do anything, he would also leave them behind and run for his own life.
