"Report! The Chu family's army has safely crossed the swamp of death!" After thinking about the hall on the top of the mountain, the intelligence was constantly focused here, "Great!" Zhan Jianfeng, who was temporarily responsible for law enforcement and guarding, stood up immediately after receiving the summons, Together with Yu Zicheng, Yu Qing'er and other disciples who assisted in various affairs in the palace, they gathered in front of the map of the entire territory of Chu and Qin. "Then the distance between the Chu family and Bei Lie Mountain" Zhan Jianfeng spread his thumb and index finger and kept measuring the distance on the map, estimating the speed of each military formation. Having been exposed to the military for many years, he is very good at and likes to figure out the tactics of battle formations. , it is a pity that Qi Xiu ordered him to stay behind. Now the mountain gate has been basically cut off from internal and external traffic. After the Chu and Qin armies set off, he could not go into battle in person. In addition to doing his duty of guarding the gate conscientiously, he could only look at the map and imagine what he would do if he arranged it. War strategy, what will happen next "The Chu family should choose the northwest corner of the original Shandu, which is the closest straight line to the Southern Chu territory, to launch their military formation. If they then advance straight to Bei Lie Mountain in the southeast, they will be with us. The armies of Chu and Qin first converged outside Bei Lie Mountain, or in an area east of Bei Lie Mountain. However, in addition to the tens of thousands of people besieging Bei Lie Mountain, the Lihuo army also had considerable strength in Qifu City. It just depends on how Qifu City will react! " Neither Chu Qin nor the Chu family would convey the current status of the army and the true strategy without reservation. Zhan Jianfeng could only make guesses based on his own experience and intuition. "Report!" At this time, another sect member shouted loudly, "The Qifu City army has set off! According to the information obtained, it is likely to exceed ten thousand people!" "Oh?!" Although it was expected, everyone in the hall heard Hearing this news, Chu Qin felt nervous. There were about 6,000 monks in the military formation heading north from Siguo Mountain. In a hurry, the number of people the Chu family could gather to go south to support would not exceed this number, and Li Huo Meng Guang gathered tens of thousands outside Bei Lie Mountain, and there were also countless scattered monks who invaded various mountain gates in Chu and Qin. Now Qifu City has another 10,000 troops "How there are so many people ?" Concern leads to chaos, Yu Qing'er asked in a trembling voice. "They organized the casual cultivators in and around Qifu City, as well as the core forces of the Fire Alliance such as the Ancient Sword Sect of Gu Rong, the master of Qifu City!" replied the messenger disciple. "Gurong" Gu Tiesheng used to be the elder of the sect, and Chu Qin had always been friendly with Gu Rong and Gujian Sect. Most of the people in the palace had dealt with Gu Rong. Now that the name was mentioned, everyone gritted their teeth. "From Qifu City, if we follow the march route of the 10,000 people outside Bei Lie Mountain and go straight up the Mian River, we will be faster than us and the Chu family!" Zhan Jianfeng did some mental calculations on the map and asked. He said: "How is Baisha Mountain on the other side of Mianshui River?" "It has not fallen yet!" The messenger replied: "Lihuo's army does not seem to want to break through the Baisha Gang Mountain Gate. At present, it is only sending some scattered forces to surround and attack." "Baisha Mountain We should be able to hold it, but that¡¯s it.¡± Yu Zicheng, who is accustomed to ceremonial diplomacy, said: ¡°The two wives of Master Sha are from the Gan family of Qiyun Lingyao Pavilion. It was Qi who gave me the Mian River coast to Chu Qin. Master Yun, Lu Yunzi, probably just didn¡¯t want any accidents to happen when the Lihuo army broke through the mountain gate.¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Zhan Jianfeng nodded in agreement. With tens of thousands of monks forming an army formation, it was not difficult to climb down the small white sand mountain with great fanfare. Naturally, it was kept for reasons other than military considerations. "Report!" At this time, another fellow disciple came in to report, "Senior Sanxiu Yuanshan Huai wants to see you!" The person who reported the message was a Qi practitioner, and the senior he mentioned was naturally a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Because things happened in a hurry, he is still here today. Many monks and casual cultivators from various sects were stranded in Siguo Mountain. "I'll go." This was Yu Zicheng's responsibility. He immediately saluted in the direction of the back hall, "Uncle Mingshi." As the only Jindan left behind, Mingzhen has always thought about the person with the highest cultivation level in the mountain. Sitting in the back hall, Yu Zicheng knew that Yuan Shanhuai had a somewhat unruly character, so he asked Ming Zhen to suppress him. "Okay, I'll come right away." Mingzhen agreed, and not long after, a red figure in red robes flew out from the back hall, passed through the palace door in a flash, and followed Yu Zicheng, who had left not long ago. "Yang Han? Are you from Waihai?" Zhan Jianfeng recognized the Qi training disciple who was staring blankly in the direction where Mingzhen disappeared. "Yes, Master Zhan!" Yang Han was startled, woke up immediately, and bowed to answer: "Uncle Master, when I was out in the sea" "Do your duty." Zhan Jianfeng was not in the mood to reminisce with him. "Yes!" Yang Han secretly told himself in his heart.With a big mouth, he quickly turned around and went out to continue his errands. "Report!" Another messenger monk passed by him, "The envoys from the Jiuxingfang families are asking for a meeting outside the mountain gate!" "It's still the same as before, arrange for them to stay in Xiushan, and let the people there first inquire about the purpose of their visit." Zhan Jianfeng's order came out. Now Chu and Qin do not dare to let outsiders enter the mountain gate. They will first send them to the gate of Siguo Mountain, the Xiushan Mountain that is the horn of each other. Yang Han's duty is still to help maintain order in Siguoshanfang City. The streets are closed to pedestrians and empty, and all shops have been closed. There are only some well-established ones, such as Qiyun Wanbao, Guanghui, Lingyao and other pavilions. The shopkeepers would occasionally stand at the door chatting and exchanging information. The hotels and spiritual tea shops were very lively. Even though they had gone through several actions such as tracking down traitors, encouraging them to join the war, or letting them go, there were still many people lingering there. , but most of them are low-level monks. However, the casual cultivator named Yuan Shanhuai has some clues. He is a good friend of Lingyao Pavilion. He is currently staying in Lingyao Pavilion. Yu Zicheng and Mingzhen seemed to have just entered. Yang Han trotted all the way to the store. The five-person law enforcement team at the door stood obediently behind the foundation-building captain. Qi Xiu knew that Zhan Jianfeng had a high prestige among the monks from the outer sea, so he deliberately kept Yang Han and many other monks from the outer sea in Siguoshan to consolidate Zhan Jianfeng's power. But these are not things that Yang Han can understand. Now he is raising his ears, trying to hear the few words of the Mingzhen Patriarch. Unfortunately, it is impossible with his cultivation. The Yuanshan Huai was making trouble to leave before, and the Jindan Once the seniors arrived, there seemed to be no movement now. "I can't see anymore" At this time, the captain of the law enforcement team, Deacon surnamed Ke Ji, suddenly murmured to himself. What can¡¯t you see? oh. Yang Han and others followed his gaze and saw that as far as they could see, the Chu and Qin armies slowly advancing northward had completely disappeared. Thousands of monks, those flying shuttles and beast ships that covered the sky, and those towering ships that reached into the clouds. Before, some vague outlines of the formation pillars could still be seen on Siguo Mountain, the highest point in the surrounding area, but now they are all gone There are still green mountains and white clouds left. At this time, Qi Xiu was hiding in an ordinary silver-backed pack ray, meditating, and moving forward with the army. Baishan Nascent Soul's method of using a bronze oil lamp to summon the Dharmakaya has the disadvantage of greatly reducing its strength, but sometimes it can be miraculous in battles. For example, when Han Tianqing, the Nascent Soul of the Qingdan Sect, ambushed the shuttle of the Lingmu Alliance. The hidden Jindan monks carried oil lamps and sneaked nearby, or waited halfway, and then suddenly summoned the dharma body and launched a violent ambush At that time, the Lingmu Alliance almost lost one shuttler, two Jindan, and Lord Bolin. He died and Chai Yi was injured. Neither Chu Qin nor the Chu family could bear to be treated like this, so Qi Xiu strictly ordered his side and the Chu family to stay in the ground military formation most of the time, marching majestically, and the shuttle beast ships also Not many people, especially Jindan monks, gathered. Standing on top of the Yimu Wind Shuttle now is Qin Changfeng, who is dressed in the red robe of Chu and Qin. He has the secret technique of star escape to protect himself. Everyone in the military formation below can see his figure as soon as they look up, and hear the orders he issues from time to time. His grace and grace are all heart-breaking. ¡°There has to be a fight first.¡± Qi Xiu took back his senses and muttered to himself. At this time, Qi Xiu was more focused on trying to figure out the enemy, especially Gu Rong Gu Rong was lured by himself back then and ambushed Si Ai in the underground fire secret room under his Gu Jianmen shop in Lihuo City, and was almost killed by Si Ai and the person who entered. When the witch cultivator fought back, Qi Xiu could tell that the guy was a big gambler, but after many years of dating, the guy was also a bit greedy for life and afraid of death. It was not uncommon for two completely opposite personality traits to come together in the same person. Gu Rong ensnared Gu Tiesheng, Zhang Shengnan, his wife, and Gu Tan, and killed Meng Jun. He should be at the peak of his gambling ambitions now. Without a fight to let him see the reality clearly, any lobbying methods will not work. Qi Xiu didn't know that Chu Wen had some negative feelings in his heart after watching the fight between the powerful gods surrounding the ink dragon vision above the Death Swamp, but Anyway, he was used to it, and always had just finished participating in the secret of the gods. , turned back to Chu Qin and tore off the pieces of his own family. His life experience was completely different from that of Chu Wen, a free man from an aristocratic family. "Qi Xiu suggested that we not enter any mountain gates for repairs, even those vassalized by the Chu-Qin Alliance." At this time, Chu Wen was standing with his sword in his arms, guarding the Chu family monks who had come down from the shuttle to re-arrange their formations. There was a guard in the distance. The Shanmen, where the Shanda Formation is operating normally, used to belong to the Mu family of the Xiuzhen family when the Wei family still owned the land of Shandu. Now it was awarded to one of its vassals by Chu and Qin. Since this vassal house is located in the northwest of Shandu, it has not been much disturbed by the Lihuo army. At this time, some casual cultivators who tried to take advantage of the fire began to gather nearby.??, as soon as the Chu family's army arrived, it naturally dispersed like ice and snow melting. The monks who stayed behind in this vassal family happily welcomed the Chu family¡¯s army outside the mountain gate. The monks from a small family had little knowledge, and they warmly invited the army into the mountain, trying to do their best to entertain the ancestors of the Chu family. Chu Zuosheng naturally refused and only asked the other party to provide some logistical supplies within his ability. Of course, he would also explain to Chu Wen, "The hearts of the vassals of Chu and Qin are unpredictable. Qi Xiu is probably worried that You Xiaoxiao has secretly defected to Lingmu. "Lihuo" "You can make the decision." Chu Wen followed Shan Ruliu, and at the same time raised the power of the Yuanying monk's induction to its peak, focusing on guarding against the spirit wood Lihuo, and even the time when the Ruijinhoutu Yuanying ambushed Chu Shentong. The same ambush raid. "Yes!" Chu Zuosheng agreed enthusiastically, "Deploy the formation on the northwest side of the mountain gate here! Hurry!" He immediately repeated the arrangements. Although the mountain gate cannot be entered, the mountain protection formation can provide some protection for the Chu family's unfinished military formation. cover. Basically, after returning from the outer sea, no one among the senior monks of Sanchu would have any doubts about the plan of the mastermind Qi Xiu. "More than 6,000 people from the Chu-Qin Alliance are heading straight for this place!" "About 5,000 people from the Chu family have arrived in the northwest of the mountain capital. They are organizing their military formations and will be heading here soon!" Outside Bei Lie Mountain, Lang Ji Gao Ye has already obtained the information, but no one dares to guarantee the accuracy of the information. Both sides are now in the fog of war with each other. The Five Elements Alliance has suffered too many losses from Chu Qin and the Chu family, so be careful. It was not an exaggeration to say that he immediately ordered the Lihuo army that besieged Bei Lie Mountain to continue to shrink and re-camp on the north bank of Mian River in the northeast of Bei Lie Mountain. In this way, when the Chu Qin and Chu family armies from the south and northwest arrived, the two sides would The space will be at least temporarily separated by Bei Lie Mountain. "Hahaha!" In fact, Bei Lie Mountain is not difficult to capture. Lang Jigao is just seeking stability. During this period of time, he has already asked the army to clear the periphery of Bei Lie Mountain, including Qianxiong Garden, which is the most proud of the Xiong family. The battle is about to begin, but there is no shortage of laughter outside the formation. Some Lihuo League monks are happily picking up various bear beasts captured from the Thousand Bears Garden. Other teams that raided the surrounding areas are also returning one after another, and various trophies are being collected. They are packed into boats such as silver-backed rays and other beasts, and sent along the Mianshui River to Qifu City, and then either transported back to their hometown, or traded and sold there. This is how the Baishan people, no matter what, get the benefits first. "Hahaha!" A Lihuo League cultivator was holding a storage bag full of spirit stones in one hand and a flying sword in the other. He kept poking the butt of a huge mutated black bear and drove it toward a Qiyun family. The merchant's animal boat caught him, and the black bear howled and screamed in pain. He became more and more amused and laughed continuously. "Let the boys calm down after this trip. Although Qi Xiu is very careful, he won't come too soon." Lang Jigao didn't want to be too restrictive and spoil everyone's fun, "Where is Gu Rong?" "He We decided not to go through Mianshui, but to follow the old path of the war between the Qifu Alliance and the Wei family, and advance from the north." His subordinates replied. "Yes." Lang Jigao nodded with satisfaction. He had made an agreement with Gu Rong before setting off. He could either meet up first or split into two directions. Anyway, both strategies have advantages and disadvantages. It was up to Gu Rong to make his own decision. As the leader of the alliance, that is his power and freedom. However, Lang Jigao did not expect that after Gu Rong led the army to Tianyin Mountain, he refused to leave. "No! This can't be done in the south!" After Monk Fayin left, his Tianyin Mountain Luzong Temple was like the mountain gate opening. In addition to the mortal monks, there were only some shrimp beasts who could no longer go to the mines to 'retire themselves' here. Before Gurong He had been here as a guest before and was familiar with the road. After his men broke through the restriction, he walked into the temple hall at full speed and sat down on Fa Yin's futon. "Continue to urge the Lingmu Alliance! It's just you! You will summon the person in person!" he shouted. The envoy from the Lingmu Alliance who came to accompany the army ordered: "Chai Yi signed a soul contract with Qi Xiu back then. I can't take the risk of that old guy's life coming to an end. If you don't launch a real attack to the south of the land of Chu and Qin, I will defend it." "Now?" The envoy of the Lingmu Alliance was stunned, "You don't know the blood feud between us and Chu Qin, but our fighting spirit is definitely not inferior to yours! " "The Lingmu Alliance should have cooperated with us a long time ago!" Qin Guangyao, who ran back after the poor progress on the Shuanglian Mountain front in the south, stood firmly on Gu Rong's side. "Nan is already in my hands!" "Go! Go!" Gu Rong waved his hand impatiently, "Isn't Chai Yi always saying that he is the leader of the league?" We have already set out, everything is on the line! What else can he do?" "Senior brother Lang Jigao" "Don't keep mentioning him in front of me!It¡¯s the leader of the Lihuo Alliance! Take the order! Gu Rong slapped his face, "You Lingmu will wait until you fulfill your promise!" " "Haha" The messenger sent the secret message back to Lingmu Alliance. Chai Yi, who was on the front line of the battlefield between the south and He Huanzong, laughed after hearing it, "Hahaha! " His whole body was still tightly wrapped in fabric to recover from his injuries. His laughter became louder and louder, "Okay, okay! I threatened him with death before, but now he reciprocates the favor. Unfortunately, he is judging a gentleman with a villain's heart. I was not a hypocrite before. If he doesn't believe it, then I don't blame him. Indeed, I should The courage of the man in the spirit tree is revealed! " "Senior brother! The war is urgent now, and I am completely dependent on your wisdom" The Jindan of the Lingmu Alliance beside him immediately stopped him when he heard what he was saying, "Take good care of your body, senior brother, your longevity may not be" "No need to say more! There are many wise and resourceful people in this alliance, but it was just my selfishness that prevented you from letting you do what you want! " Chai Yi sternly refused, "That's fine, the time is right I hope this Gu Rong can complete what I have not yet done! " His face turned sad and he said: "Going to the point of death with emotion, I know it is easy but difficult, but I regret that the times are not good, it is difficult to be happy" "Senior brother" Lingmu Jindan choked with sobs and persuaded, "At least When I invite the ancestor down from the mountain, you guys have a good talk first and then" "No, just follow my last plan! " "Uncle Ying! Qi Xiu! " A few days later, the Lingmu Alliance pretended to suffer a disastrous defeat on the front line against He Huanzong. He used a trick to lure Yingbo and others from the Qingdan Sect, who were becoming more alert, to show up for peace talks. In the middle, he suddenly shouted loudly and rushed towards the Qingdan Sect. "Boom!" The earth-shattering Jindan self-explosion resounded through the sky. Yingbo was injured and Yingzhong died. The Lingmu Alliance then detached a force to go north and entered the territory of Chu and Qin to fight against the Chu and Qin rebels led by Qin Guangyao. Convergence.
