Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain
190、Wang Long Mountain
Qi turns to Qianyang, which means that the warrior has understood the Qi of pure Yang. The aura around the body is as strong as fire. It can shake hundreds of miles of land with a wave of the hand. It is so majestic that it cannot be seen easily.
The monstrous sea of fire created by Gu Tianyun's thousands of sword energies was not only as beautiful as the sunset, but also powerful enough to shake the heavens and the earth. It not only dispersed the curse sounds in the sky and forced Zhan Taiqing back, but also stunned the entire audience, making everyone Everyone was stunned.
"A warrior in the Yin-Yang Holy Realm is like a god!"
"This is beyond the scope of martial arts, right? How can you be so strong?"
"No, on the night of the Rakshasa Festival, the battle between Ji Yanzhi and the Blood Demon was even stronger than this, but those two figures are already powerful in the Broken Realm!"
"No wonder, no wonder Lu Jianshi gathered his men. As long as the sword head is there, Wanyang County cannot lose it. Brothers, we will definitely be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive!"
"Yes, nine days have passed. Reinforcements will definitely arrive soon."
…………
It is worth noting that the remaining three thousand troops in Wanyang County had all withdrawn from Tongling before, so they were not much shocked by the magnificent battle scene in front of them. Only the disciples of Tianding Sect and those in the city The casual cultivator was shocked to the core at this moment and let out a series of exclamations of surprise.
Especially when they saw Zhan Taiqing, who was dressed in white, seemed to be frightened away by Gu Tianyun, and retreated towards the city wall, the morale of the people below was immediately boosted to the extreme, and they let out a wave of exclamations.
"Return!"
"They retreated."
"Hahahaha, the Yongzhou dog is scared."
"The sword head is invincible!"
I don’t know who was the first to shout out “Invincible with sword head, defend the county to the death”. These eight words obviously fit everyone’s hearts at this moment, so a second followed, a third, a fourth... …
The sword head is invincible... The sword head is invincible... The sword head is invincible...
For a moment, the defenders in the county city roared and the tsunami roared. People's emotions were all mobilized by the majestic force of Gu Tianyun's sword to repel the enemy, and they swelled to the extreme in an instant. The three thousand silver-armored troops in the front row were probably the defenders in the past few days. The pressure on the city was too great, everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs and their faces were red. Some people even raised their swords towards the city wall, as if they had the urge to counterattack.
As the saying goes, the soldiers guarding the city were in high spirits. On the contrary, the Yongzhou Army on the city wall and outside the city were like frost beating eggplants at this moment, and their morale instantly dropped.
Gu Tianyun retracted his sword, his eyes narrowed slightly, showing a hint of confusion, but when he saw the roar of the people below and the morale that was quickly boosted, he still smiled slightly.
"The sword head's magical power is unparalleled, and my subordinates greatly admire it!"
When Lu Guanqing saw Zhan Taiqing retreating, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart. He flew up into the air and bowed to Gu Tianyun, his voice extremely excited.
This sentence definitely came from the heart. If he hadn't been a sword wielder for a long time, he had developed some pride. In the past, he would have knelt down directly in front of Gu Tianyun at this moment.
To be fair, guarding Wanyang County is naturally what the Wanjian Sect, and even everyone with an interest in Xuzhou, hopes to see. However, the problem is that the one with the greatest immediate interests is him, the sword wielder.
If Wanyang County is conquered by Yongzhou, he will be regarded as a swordsman and will be held accountable by the Holy Sect. How can he, who is used to being domineering in Wanyang County, endure it? So Gu Tianyun This sword was crucial to his encouragement.
If he can stop Zhan Taiqing, or make Zhan Taiqing dare not act rashly, the possibility of the Yongzhou army forcibly attacking the city will be even smaller. As long as he can hold on until the reinforcements arrive and keep Wanyang County, he, the sword wielder, can continue to do it.
Not only that, if he cooperates with the reinforcements inside and outside and inflicts heavy losses on the Yongzhou army outside, he, Lu Guanqing, might be able to gain a lot of credit.
These thoughts came to Lu Guanqing's mind, and his eyes suddenly flashed with passion...
"Zhan Taiqing is just retreating temporarily. Don't be careless. In the past few days, the defenders must patrol around the clock, especially at night. They must arrange manpower to guard them. If there is any change, they must counterattack immediately. They must not be given any chance to capture the city wall.
."
"I obey my orders!"
Gu Tianyun looked at the vast army outside the city, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes. Zhan Taiqing was indeed repelled by him just now, but he would not be defeated like this, and she would not let the army attack the city with him. It was obvious that
It was a test of his strength, and he would never believe it if there was no follow-up action.
However, he still has some confidence in his own strength.
Zhan Taiqing had only one way to break the city, and that was to attack by force regardless of casualties. However, in this way, he just fulfilled his wish. Once the 170,000 army suffered too many casualties, it would not be a concern, and it would not even be necessary.
The Shengzong's army can be dealt with by the time the reinforcements from Longxiang and Yangping counties are needed.
………………
Outside the city, the demon sect’s camp
"Just wait outside!"
Han Feng and other masters thought that Zhan Taiqing had suffered a small defeat and wanted to go back to the camp to prepare for the next battle. Unexpectedly, they followed him to the door. Zhan Taiqing refused to let them in, and they all suddenly showed doubts.
Zhan Taiqing ignored them and just walked in alone...
"Then Hou Yuxiao seems to be inside, right? Does the master trust this person too much and still want to discuss with him without telling us?"
The person who spoke was an ordinary grandmaster. When Peng Yuhu and Han Feng heard this, they both frowned. It was obvious that the words had reached their hearts.
Five days ago, Zhan Taiqing held a discussion with Hou Yuxiao alone. Although they didn't know the content, judging from the situation at hand, Zhan Taiqing should have had some plans, and it was related to Hou Yuxiao. It was said that they were going to listen to Zhan Taiqing.
Yes, but being hidden like this makes me feel a little uncomfortable.
Especially the nine Han Feng people are direct descendants of Zhan Taiqing...
"Master Peng, why don't you see your younger brother today?"
Han Feng glanced around and suddenly noticed that there were only two of the three generals beside Peng Yuhu, and he immediately asked.
When he asked, everyone's attention turned to Peng Yuhu. When they saw that only Dong Yuxuan and Hong Bo were left, doubts appeared on their faces.
Where did Peng Yucheng, Peng Yuhu's younger brother from the third capital of Xingnan Prefecture, go?
"Did you just find out today? My clan brother received the master's military order and left four nights ago with a group of troops. As for where he went, I don't know!"
Peng Yuhu shook his head, as if he was a little surprised at everyone's slowness, but he didn't know the last sentence, and he obviously had a helpless tone.
Peng Yucheng did say hello to him when he left, but he just said it was the master's military order and disappeared. He didn't tell him where he was going or what he was going to do.
In fact, after the battle between Zhan Taiqing and Gu Tianyun just now, Peng Yuhu roughly guessed where Peng Yucheng had gone. However, since the master didn't say anything, there was no need for him to be clever. It was better to just shut up.
When Han Feng heard what he said, he suddenly turned around and looked at the tents around him, observed them carefully, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
Only now did he realize that although the number of camps outside the city had not decreased, the number of soldiers coming and going had significantly shrunk. In other words, Peng Yucheng had really left with a group of troops.
Thinking of the battle between Zhan Taiqing and Gu Tianyun just now, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Han Feng's mind, his shoulders shook, and he suddenly realized.
………………
Within the tent
When Hou Yuxiao saw Zhan Taiqing walking in, he immediately bowed and saluted.
"Meet the Master!"
Zhan Taiqing sat down at the main seat unceremoniously and asked: "How many days will it take?"
Hou Yuxiao pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and replied: "Longxiang County is more than three hundred miles away from here. An army of more than 10,000 people marches at about seventy miles a day. After getting the news, it will take at least four days to get there.
Above; Yangping County is further away, more than 350 miles away, and it will take at least five days.
They sent out the people asking for help on the evening of the fourth day of August. The two of them rode high-grade horses that traveled thousands of miles a day. Even if the two counties moved quickly, they would immediately order their troops to set off after receiving the news on the fifth day of August. It is expected that eight
The tenth day of the lunar month, which is tomorrow, will almost arrive."
After saying these words, Hou Yuxiao paused for a moment and continued: "There may be an error in the arrival time of these two counties, but it should not exceed two days. Our Hou family's 10,000 troops have already matched Peng Dutong's 50,000 troops.
The army will return, and if everything goes well, by August 12th at the latest, my subordinates will definitely be able to bring good news to the master!"
Hou Yuxiao's tone was a little exciting. According to his current cultivation strength, he was originally not qualified to participate in such a holy land level competition, but he couldn't stand Zhan Taiqing's words "rewards based on merit", so he was tempted.
.
There are nine counties in Guangling Prefecture. Although he does not know what the specific strategic goals of the Rakshasa Holy Cult are to achieve when they invade Xuzhou this time, even if they only conquer the territory of the prefecture, as long as they allocate one or two counties to the Hou family, it will be enough for him.
It is said that he has made a lot of money.
Don’t you see, he has narrowly escaped death countless times at the hands of those descendants of the Holy Land for the sake of a small Zhaoyang County; Tongling County was able to succeed, to be honest, it was more or less due to luck. Looking back now, on the night of the Rakshasa Festival, everyone
If one of the powerful ones loses control, or if Miss Hong's feelings for Lao Wu are not that deep, then the Hou family will probably be doomed.
As long as he helps the Rakshasa Holy Cult win this battle, even if Zhan Taiqing discounts his own credit, even if he only allocates one county to himself, it will be a huge benefit to the Hou family.
More importantly, in this war, the hatred of the Ten Thousand Swords Holy Sect will all be focused on the Rakshasa Holy Sect. The Hou family, a small, third-rate clan, will not attract any attention at all.
Being able to make big gains with a little, wouldn't Hou Yuxiao be a fool if he didn't do this kind of business?
So five days ago, when Zhan Taiqing offered this bait, Hou Yuxiao accepted it without even thinking.
The idea he gave Zhan Taiqing was very simple, just four words:
Surround the place to call for help!
Zhan Taiqing and others attach great importance to Wanyang County. Of course, this city is indeed very important because it is the first city in the western border of Xuzhou. Taking it will not only boost one's own morale, but also cause a blow.
Xuzhou's morale can have an effect.
This is also the reason why Gu Tianyun decided to defend Wanyang County after retreating to Tongling. He and Zhan Taiqing also came up with the idea to defend this city, at least in the first wave, which would thwart the momentum of the Demon Sect and prepare the ground for the next battle.
Make preparations.
This is what the authorities are confused about, but bystanders know clearly!
In Hou Yuxiao's view, whether the city can be captured is not that important at all. This war between the two states is unlikely to end in the short term. In this case, the most important principle in the war is to attack the opponent's effective forces and attack the city.
Instead, the village can be placed at the back.
Gu Tianyun feels that the only way he can defend Wanyang County is that the reinforcements from Longxiang County and Yangping County will come soon. With his own strength and the protective sword formation, he has the confidence to resist the Demon Cult army, or in other words, as long as
Zhan Taiqing dared to attack the city by force. He was confident enough that he could cause enough losses to the Demon Cult army and affect the subsequent battle.
In this case, why bother surrounding a city that is unwilling to attack? It is better to use Wanyang County as a bait and attack the reinforcements coming from other places first. In the end, both Longxiang County and Yangping County will be attacked. Those two cities are also protected.
Instead of attacking the city when the time comes, it would be better to eliminate the living forces now to save trouble.
"In that case, you should hurry up and prepare. Peng Dutong and I have already agreed that you will control the army. I am waiting for your good news!"
Zhan Taiqing's words interrupted Hou Yuxiao's thoughts, and he didn't say anything more. He just nodded, turned around respectfully, and walked out of the tent.
Lao Si and Lao Wu set out to find Hou Yucheng five days ago and asked him to lead the army to the official road in the east. Peng Yucheng left at night four days ago. The two armies should have turned around by now. Lao
Fifth, he knows his intentions and should have already made arrangements. All he needs to do now is go find them.
Although there are a total of 60,000 troops on our side, and there are many experts, they are reinforcements from a county after all. Besides, the second, fourth, and fifth are all here. If something happens, there is no place to regret it. I will do it myself.
In the past, it was better to be more cautious.
Hou Yuxiao left the camp, nodded to Peng Yuhu and Han Feng, flew through the air without saying anything, and galloped towards the east.
……………………
The official road to the east of Wanyang County extends out for about fifty miles. There is a section of high mountains with an altitude of more than 300. The low part of the mountain is only two or three meters, and the top is more than 300 meters. It looks towering into the clouds, quite impressive.
Magnificent.
The official road happened to pass through a deep valley in the mountains.
"Although Wanyang and Longxiang counties are bordered, one county is in the east and the other is in the west, so the distance is more than 300 miles. The overall terrain of Longxiang County is higher than that of Wanyang County. There is a three-story building at the junction of the two counties.
The forty-mile tall mountain range is high in the east and low in the west. From a distance, it looks like a giant looking up at Longxiang County, so it was named Wanglong Mountain long ago!
The high mountain we are standing on now should be the starting point of Wanglong Mountain, and it also belongs to the Wanglong Mountain area. If we want to see the main body, we have to walk at least thirty miles further!"
At the top of the mountain, Wang Gong told everyone about the origin of Wanglong Mountain while looking at the east with complicated expressions in his eyes.
He really didn't expect that he would be able to return to Longxiang County in his lifetime and walk on the same official road that he had walked when he was an escort at Fuwei Escort Agency.
Next to him, there were more than a dozen people standing, including Hou Yucheng, Hou Yujie, and Hou Yuduan. Hou Fei, Hou Ying, Hou Cun, and many Gang Qi realm warriors from the Hou family were also present.
In addition to these people, there was also a burly man wearing black armor and holding a sharp sword, with a fighting spirit all over his body.
"Peng Dutong, has the army already laid an ambush?"
Hou Yuduan lowered his head and looked down at the end of the official road, his eyes slightly showing a cold light, turned around and asked the burly man, his tone was slightly solemn.
