Chapter 595: Rushing to the Altar [Ask for monthly tickets! ]
The famous guqin performer Zhuge Kongming once said that an empty city can also repel the enemy.
The female general leading the army of the Wood Wolf Tribe was named Lang Muzhuo. She was one of the few young people in the Wood Wolf Tribe who still adhered to their tribe, and she was the most outstanding in wisdom and martial arts. She was able to take on the heavy responsibility and lead the family assets put together by the entire tribe to the Tianxia Pass battlefield.
Even if they came to take advantage of the situation, not everyone has the ability to do so. When she saw the empty city gates, a series of strategies immediately flashed through her mind.
On the first level, Yin’s army emptied Tianxia Pass in order to lure them deeper into the enemy territory and then destroy the first attacking force.
But then I thought about the second level. The Yin army was already short of soldiers and generals. Could it be that they deliberately put on this posture to prevent me from entering?
But if we go deeper into the third level, we will find that Qi Kunlun and Tang Wei are both famous generals of the time, especially the latter who is superb at using troops and unpredictable. Could it be that he is betting that he thinks this is a strategy and there will be a large number of ambushes when he enters?
But if you think about the fourth level…
In an instant, Lang Muzhuo’s mind was filled with layers of ideas, and he could build ten towers to the sky at once.
After some hesitation, she chose to proceed first and then proceed, “Fire rockets! Cover the city gates!”
Thousands of wolf riders behind her stopped at the foot of the city, grabbed the crossbows on the wolves’ backs, and following her instructions, shot rockets into the air, covering most of the area below the top of the city like a rainstorm, and completely enveloped the north gate of Tianxia Pass.
Boom boom——
Arrows rained down on the ground, with bursts of explosions.
Far behind, Wu Mengshan sneered, “This woman is not good at leading troops. It’s obvious that the Yin army has fled, but she is still wasting her efforts.”
Before he could finish his words, the situation at the city gate suddenly changed. Two mighty sword energies emerged from it and headed straight for Lang Muzhuo to kill him!
It turned out that there were no defenders on the top of the city, but there were two great sword masters hiding under the city gate, who wanted to assassinate the generals of Yang Army when they entered the city. Thanks to Lang Muzhuo’s caution, they were not robbed on the spot.
Although Deng Yunzi and Jian Wangsun did not wait for her to get close, they rushed forward slightly, and then they were like two streams of sword energy, killing directly at Langmu Zhuo’s face!
Lang Muzhuo held his spear horizontally to block, but the spear in his hand was cut into three pieces in an instant!
Thanks to the flexibility of the giant wolf under her crotch, she flipped over and leaped into the army formation under the city.
The wolf riders had already formed a battle formation, and the howling wind, accompanied by a rain of arrows and blades, swept towards the two sword cultivators in chaos. The two did not want to fight, so they turned around and fled to the back.
After a brief confrontation, only a burning city wall remained.
Lang Muzhuo was not frightened by the life-and-death moment just now. Instead, he immediately ordered the army to “enter the city!”
The arrangements left by Yin’s army further proved that they had no ability to fight in an organized manner. Even if they were ambushed, they could only rely on their luck to assassinate the two powerful sword masters.
It seems that there is really no one left to fight.
Thousands of wolf riders rushed into Tianxia Pass from the north gate with strange roars.
“Don’t advance rashly. Check every house and building carefully to make sure no Yin army is hiding!” Lang Muzhuo continued to give orders.
“You are really timid.” Wu Mengshan in the formation said again: “This city gate is so empty…”
Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of cannon fire, and a large number of heavily armored infantrymen holding Mo Dao suddenly jumped out from the attic of a house in the middle section of the city.
“kill–“
Jiuyang’s wolf riders were flexible and fierce, but they were not good at attacking. They were most afraid of heavy armor and Mo Dao. This was the experience summed up by the soldiers of the Yin Army over the past hundreds of years. The sudden appearance of a large number of infantrymen aroused the most primitive fear of the demon wolf mounts, and they screamed and retreated.
The swordsmen who came out to kill were deep and fierce, like a vast torrent, slowly advancing forward, and every sword cut down a demon wolf. Fortunately, the Wood Wolf tribe advanced cautiously enough. If they underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, they would be cut in half and not a single horse would be able to retreat. Seeing that there were many ambushes of the enemy, Lang Muzhuo immediately ordered a retreat to preserve the living strength.
“There is indeed an ambush!” Wu Mengshan shouted from a distance, “The Yin army is really unwilling to give up. Send a message to the water priest to make it rain blood!”
Long Li frowned and said, “Let’s wait for the Wood Wolf Tribe to withdraw.”
“If they withdraw, won’t the Yin people chase them out?” Wu Mengshan said dissatisfiedly: “Let them attack first, isn’t that what they do? There are still Yin troops in the city now, and we should make a timely decision. Even if we are drenched in blood, at most more people will be left behind, what’s the big deal? If we let the Yin troops rush to our camp, the casualties will be ours!”
Long Li’s face was solemn, but he still passed the order down, asking Xiao Jue to activate the Seven Killing Blood Rain immediately.
Just as Wu Mengshan said, letting the Wood Wolf Army attack first was originally for this purpose. As long as they could find out that there were Yin troops in the city, they would rain blood. When the coalition forces rushed forward, they would be surrounded by the weak Yin troops.
A streak of light flashed across the army formation in an instant.
……
On a hillside not far from Tianxia Pass, Xiao Jue had already made arrangements and used formations to cover the altar. From a distance, the naked eye could only see a lush forest.
Moreover, in order to prevent Yin’s army from knowing about the Seven Killing Blood Rain Formation, he deliberately set up confusion and built two suspected altars in two other places to ensure that nothing could go wrong.
With the current reserve of mystics in Yin Kingdom, no one could see through his maze.
Flags fluttered, and on the table in the center of the altar was a jade box, with a bright red color inside. It was the blood of tens of thousands of livestock sacrificed, and after being refined in the blood pool, only this bowl of the purest blood of all living things was refined.
It can be said that every time Xiao Jue activated the Seven Killing Blood Rain Formation, countless cattle and sheep of Jiuyang would suffer. This is why he was ranked last to fight. If he activated the formation a few more times, the children of this generation of Jiuyang would have to grow up eating vegetarian food.
There were more than ten mystics sitting around the altar, and each of them looked a little nervous. If a war really broke out, it would be fine, but the waiting process was really tormenting. Xiao Jue himself was fine, his state of mind was far from being affected by this.
Soon, seeing a streak of light in the sky, Xiao Jue knew that it was time to activate the formation.
call–
With a wave of the flag, a gust of wind suddenly arose. He focused his divine consciousness on the jade box, connecting heaven and earth, and the formation became a way. The sky above Tianxia Pass was once again covered with blood clouds…
boom–
When the formation was halfway activated, there was a roar, and a huge ball of lightning fell from the sky, instantly overturning half of the altar. Xiao Jue was shocked and flew away, and saw that the ball of lightning dissipated, and inside it was actually a huge porcupine.
This Zhuyang Army was not unfamiliar. At first, it was the demon king recruited by that idiot Xiao Ting, but later he turned against them and caused them considerable trouble on the battlefield in the past few days.
Along with it came three other demon kings. Among them, a ball of fire was the most powerful. It fell to the ground with a loud bang and completely destroyed the altar in an instant!
Liang Yue got the information about the altar from Tu Shan, and he led four demon kings to complete this operation. As the four demon kings broke through the formation, Liang Yue followed, pointed his sword at Xiao Jue, and shouted, “Don’t let him get away!”
The generals in the army also asked whether they should send some troops to help, but Liang Yue simply shook his head and refused.
It is very important to keep this operation secret. The fewer people there are, the less likely they are to be noticed. Moreover, on the front battlefield, even if there are elixirs to help a large number of Yin troops temporarily break the blood curse, there is still a lack of manpower, and sending people here will be stretched.
The most important thing is that Liang Yue felt that their fighting power was more than enough to break through this altar and they did not need any extra help.
The five of us masters and apprentices are quite amazing!
