While Everyone Prays to Gods and Buddhas, You Lead an Army of Ghosts?

The next morning, the western suburbs of Los Angeles were calm.

It was late at night. Due to the attack the night before, the place was in a mess. There was no time to clean it up completely, let alone rebuild it.

However, there were some engineering teams and logistics personnel stationed there, and a lot of equipment and materials that had not been moved in time were stranded in place, waiting for subsequent unified arrangements.

Suddenly, in the distance, there were many black figures moving quickly in the thick night. They were agile and ran fast, but they did not make any sound.

69𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒏𝒆𝒕】

From the number, there were probably hundreds of them.

Their movement at this moment was obviously to surround the military control area. Such sneaky traces were definitely not a good sign.

But just as they were about to enter the control area, lights suddenly lit up in succession in places far or near, and bombardments broke out from the sky and the ground, killing the group of men in black by surprise.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

"There is an ambush!"

"Kill them!"

However, the men in black were trapped in a jar, so how could the ambushers let them go?

So, a massacre with a serious mismatch in strength and numbers quickly unfolded under the night sky.

It was dawn.

Liu Mang woke up, washed up and left the room, planning to go to the restaurant for dinner.

To be honest, although the Xu family compound is not as good as the palace, living here is definitely pampered.

After arriving at the restaurant, Liu Mang found that there were actually three figures waiting for him early.

The two were the father and son Xu Zheng and Xu Ye, but in the middle of the father and son, there was a strong old man with white hair and white beard, who looked very similar to the father and son.

Liu Mang immediately guessed that this person might be the legendary white-haired monkey king, the chief of staff of the National Defense Army, and the general Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan saw Liu Mang with a smile on his face. He took the initiative to greet him and stretched out his hands to shake hands with Liu Mang enthusiastically: "Sorry, I'm sorry, this is Mr. Liu Mang, right?"

Liu Mang nodded: "Yes, kid. You must be General Xu Yuan, right?"

"It's me, the old man." Xu Yuan pointed to the dining table and said enthusiastically: "Come on, come on, have breakfast first."

The four of them sat down one by one, looking very happy.

Then, they started to pick up their chopsticks and bowls. Xu Yuan chatted with Liu Mang, while the father and son kept company quietly. The four of them didn't say a single meaningful word.

After more than ten minutes, after breakfast, the four of them went to the living room to drink tea.

At this time, Xu Yuan got to the point: "I'm sorry, I'm ashamed to invite Mr. Liu to my Xu family in such a rude way. Don't worry, I've already scolded them."

Liu Mang waved his hand: "It doesn't matter."

He continued: "It seems that I should have proved my innocence."

"Of course." Xu Yuan turned to Xu Zheng and scolded him with a serious face: "You say it."

"Yes! Chief of the General Staff!"

Although they are father and son, Xu Yuan has always been very strict and full of military habits, so Xu Zheng has to be serious when calling his father in front of outsiders.

At this time, he took over the conversation and quickly explained the key points: "Last night, to ensure that there would be no emergency, I ordered the west to be on guard. As a result, a small group of enemies came to attack and fell into the trap we set. They were all wiped out by our army!"

"Hahaha~" Xu Yuan gestured to Xu Zheng to sit down, looking at Liu Mang, his eyes full of excitement: "Thanks to Mr. Liu, he is really as good as a god! I heard that Mr. Liu can predict the future. Forgive my lack of knowledge, I have never heard of which god's spiritual art has such a magical power of predicting the future. I wonder if Mr. Liu can tell me about it?"

Liu Mang heard this and shook his head gently: "How should I put it? The secret of heaven cannot be leaked. However, I do know the prophecy, and this is really not a trick."

Xu Yuan wanted to continue asking, but he also knew that the trust between the two sides had just been established, and it was far from the point where they could be unreserved.

This requires years of accumulation, and there is no rush.

However, after he learned that Liu Mang had the so-called prophecy and it was verified twice in a row, he immediately became very interested and wanted to meet Liu Mang no matter what.

Besides, even if Liu Mang did not have the magical prophecy, just because he was so young and a ghost, he could become a six-ring legendary spirit master. This achievement was enough to shake the world.

For the Xu family, getting to know such a rising star would definitely not be bad.

As for Xu Zheng's reminder that Liu Mang might have ulterior motives, it was directly refuted by old man Xu Yuan.

Based on the relationship between the ghost clan and the other three clans, why would they be willing to work for the Buddhist system?

In addition, where did the Buddhist system get the face and confidence to let such an outstanding young ghost clan invest in the battlefield of Luocheng?

In other words, it is simply ridiculous to think that Liu Mang is colluding with the Buddhist system.

After drinking tea in the living room, the four of them went to the study.

The confidentiality here is higher, and Liu Mang actually knows that he still needs to prove himself again.

At least, he had to prove himself in front of Xu Yuan, the boss.

He once again lit up the aura array and six golden rings in public, and began to perform prophecy with the prophecy staff.

When Xu Yuan saw the black aura array, he was shocked, which was far greater than Xu Zheng's feelings.

He was more certain at this time that the young man in front of him was so outstanding that he was frightening.

Not long after, Liu Mang finished casting the spell and said confidently: "There is a group of elite Buddhist soldiers in the direction of Lancheng, hiding during the day and moving at night, with a number of about 2,000. They are coming from the northwest and intend to launch a sneak attack on Luocheng. It is estimated that they will arrive the night after tomorrow. Their first stop is Shilipo, not far from the Black Horse Temple."

Hearing this news, the grandfather and grandson fell silent.

If Liu Mang's prediction is accurate, it means that the Buddhists are deploying troops more and more frequently, and the idea of ​​taking Luocheng is more unwavering.

So, taking advantage of the fact that the enemy's reinforcements have just arrived and have not yet established a firm foothold, it will be of great significance to give them a head-on blow.

However, the Black Horse Temple is now the base camp of the Buddhists, with a solid defense and almost armed to the teeth.

If you want to ambush at Shilipo, swallow the enemy's new reinforcements, and withdraw before the large number of enemy troops from the Black Horse Temple arrive, this task is very demanding.

This requires several times the elite troops to be invested here, penetrate the enemy's heart, and retreat decisively after a fight.

It doesn't mean you can't do it if you want to. As long as you plan well and fight with intention or not, the success rate is still very high.

The key is, is it necessary to take such a risk?

At this time, after Liu Mang announced the content of the prediction, he shut up tactfully.

Whether to fight this battle and how to fight it should be left to professionals to decide.

After a long time, Xu Yuan looked at his son with a gleam in his eyes: "Xu Zheng!"

"Here!" Xu Zheng jumped up from his seat with a bang, straightened his chest and raised his head, his eyes firm.

"Do you remember the military order you signed at the Supreme Staff Meeting?"

"Report to the Chief of Staff, reflect on yourself day and night, and dare not relax for a moment!"

"Okay. Do you have confidence in your 5th Army for this mission?"

"Please rest assured, Chief of Staff, I will lead the team personally, and all the elite troops of the 5th Army will attack, and I will guarantee that no enemy will be spared!"
