Shanyin, Chengtou.
Wang Ningzhi was still wearing a Taoist robe, an E-guan belt, and a mahogany sword on his back. He stood at the top of the independent city, with his long sleeves fluttering in the wind. His profound gaze was cast to a dense forest thirty miles away in the direction of Xingpu.
After that, on the plain, there were already dotted companies and camps, covering a distance of thirty or forty miles.
Different from the group of relatives and friends in Xingpu, this camp only has sergeants wearing armor, wearing leather armor, wearing leather helmets, holding spears, and the local tyrants of Wu, and dressed in blue uniforms.
, the disciples of Tianshi Dao, who carry swords on their backs and mainly use short-range weapons, are as distinct as Jingwei.
Going back and forth between the camps, there are also mechanical wooden armors that are driven by people and run on their own. They have bows on their shoulders and crossbows in their hands. They are surrounded by more than ten guards to prevent the enemy from getting close.
Instead of military songs, they echoed in the camp. In the sound of chanting, there was a murderous aura that could be clearly felt even from the top of Shanyin City, which was dozens of miles away.
Xie Daoyun's beautiful figure, accompanied by a faint fragrance of chrysanthemums, came to Wang Ningzhi's side. Her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly and murmured: "The demon thief is stronger than I imagined. Ningzhi, you really
Are you sure you can win with those ghost soldiers?"
Wang Ningzhi curled up his lips in disdain: "Once the ghost soldiers come out, they are invincible. Judging from the posture of the demon thieves, they will not use the Immortals to attack the city. They have more soldiers now and can attack by force. If my prediction is good,
They should attack the city with the troops and horses of the native people of Wu as the vanguard. They are just trying to fool these greedy guys. The centuries-old treasures of the Wang family and the Xie family are all in the city. Whoever gets in first gets it. With just one move, these guys can be killed.
I don’t want any of them. The pills of the Immortals are very expensive, and I don’t think Qinglong will give them the recipe to prepare them. Therefore, if you take one pill, you will lose one pill. In the future, you will have to face off against the Beifu Army. They will not attack Shanin.
Used in the city."
Xie Daoyun nodded: "In case the ghost soldiers are defeated, Kuaiji City must also arrange defense and arrange retreat channels. But when do you plan to do these things?"
Wang Ningzhi smiled and waved his hand: "Thanks to you and your cooperation, now thirty thousand people have taken the pills. I only need to cast a spell to activate the last potion in the blink of an eye.
In a short period of time, all the ghost soldiers will turn into invincible battlefield Shura, free to kill. The tribes of Wu's local tyrants are just stragglers, unable to fight against the wind. Once suppressed by the ghost soldiers, they will surely collapse, which in turn will overwhelm the sky behind them.
The remaining demon thief of the Shi Dao is to follow the ghost soldiers from a distance and clean up the mess. I have selected three hundred servants and prepared fast horses, which will be used to hunt down Sun Enlu and follow the Xu Dao.
Those who wait for the demon thief leader will never let them escape to the island again."
Xie Daoyun sighed: "Liu Yu often said that in the art of war, you must consider defeat before victory. Although the ghost soldiers are powerful, if something goes wrong, it will be all over. At that time, the city defense will be completely undefended, and there will be no retreat plan.
I'm afraid that you and I will both die here."
Wang Ningzhi's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "What a woman! How can one be so forward-looking and hesitant in a war? Han Xin fought with his back to the wall, and Xiang Yu was desperate. Even in the Battle of Feishui more than ten years ago, your good brother also marched forward without hesitation.
Who would think about defeat? The demon thieves don't even use the immortals. If they encounter the ghost soldiers, they will be massacred one-sidedly. There is no other possibility. All the people guarding the city and the horses will be used to hunt down the remaining enemies.
, there is no need to stay in this city at all."
Xie Daoyun curled up his lips: "I always have some bad premonitions, just like before the Battle of Yecheng. Ningzhi, at least, at least you have to leave some escape route for our children."
Wang Ningzhi said coldly: "There are no our children here, only my children. Don't forget, our only child is Miaoyin, but she was also sent to the palace by you. As for the other sons, they are all yours."
Don't talk about us."
A trace of tears flashed in Xie Daoyun's eyes: "But Yunzhi and Pingzhi were all raised by me since childhood. Although they have no love for procreation, they still have the kindness to raise them. I, I don't want to see them in danger.
"
Wang Ningzhi sneered: "Wealth is gained through danger. Even their father went into battle in person, so what reason do they have to hide behind? Don't you Xie family all like to grab military glory? How come when my son from the Wang family wants to make contributions,
What's the danger?"
Xie Daoyun gritted his teeth: "Ningzhi, don't guess me with a villain's heart, okay? I really don't want them to be in danger. Our Xie family will give up the entire Wu land to you anyway, so how can we compete with you?"
Gongyi said?"
Wang Ningzhi waved his hand: "Okay, don't talk anymore. The children's titles must be fought for by themselves, not by me to give them to them. Besides, you have always said that the younger generations are ineffective and cannot go into battle to kill thieves. Today I
Why aren't you happy to give them such an opportunity?"
Xie Daoyun paused: "You usually don't train them, and they can't even ride a horse. What can you do if you let them go to the battlefield? It's okay if they win the battle, but if something goes wrong, they won't even be able to escape. They have to go into battle and fight for it.
That's not the case. In ancient times, there was a saying that father and son went into battle, but no matter how father and son fought, at least one of them had to stay at home. This is called staying behind, don't you understand?"
Wang Ningzhi sneered: "My four sons all want to be crowned. Which one will be convinced? As a father, I have to be fair in dealing with things. I asked them to each bring five thousand ghost soldiers. When the time comes, they only need to listen to my orders and let the ghosts
Just go forward and don't worry about anything else. As for how many thieves you kill and how many heads you take, it all depends on their abilities. Dao Yun, after all, you women don't know about this battle formation. You'd better go back.
It's good to be with the families of the people in the city, now you are their backbone."
Xie Daoyun sighed, hesitated to speak, and finally turned around and walked towards the city.
When her figure disappeared under the city, a frail scholar in his thirties walked out of the shadow of the tower behind. He was wearing a larger leather armor, especially the helmet, which looked like a pot upside down.
There was an indescribable awkwardness on his head. This person was none other than Wang Ningzhi's eldest son, Wang Yunzhi.
Wang Ningzhi glanced at his son and frowned slightly: "What happened? Can't you find a suitable military uniform?"
Wang Yunzhi said with a smile: "Those military uniforms are too tight. After taking off the clothes, my body feels so hot. If I put a pack of those military uniforms, I can't breathe. But I feel comfortable here."
Wang Ningzhi said angrily: "It's ridiculous. This is a war, not for comfort. I told you earlier that these few days are an extraordinary period. You have to quit drinking, sex, and partying. Are you going to turn a deaf ear to what dad said?"
