The coalition forces are heading to the northwest, like locusts passing through, not only their side, but also many good-hearted casual cultivators. In a battle that is destined to win, who is willing to give up and take advantage of the chaos to take a bite?
More like a parade.
After entering the northwest, everything is devastated. Broken walls and ruins can be seen everywhere. Ten rooms are empty. There are countless people fleeing, but there is not a single undead creature.
They retreated even more completely than the mountain monsters.
Passing through Jin State, Qin State, and Liusha River, we still saw no trace of undead creatures, and we even rarely saw human monks. I heard that the army of southeastern monks had advanced to the protective forest area, and the Qin and Jin countries followed.
This demonic trouble started suddenly and retreated hastily. When all the demonic beasts in the Splendid Continent united into a whole, it would be very difficult to suppress it easily.
The army continued to march westward and entered the desert, where they saw the ruined New Loulan City and the cleared protective forest belt.
Hou Zi was a little heartbroken, he had put in a lot of effort here, and now it seemed that everything was back to before; the only good news was that the underground river was not seriously damaged, and it would be much easier to build a protective forest again.
Tianfeng reminded: "The idea of this protective forest is very good, but the timing is not right. Before the problem of undead in the Kuaixu Desert is completely solved, it is not appropriate to reforest it. Not only will it be time-consuming and labor-intensive, it will also affect the post-disaster reconstruction in the northwest."
"
Taoist Master Laoshan is also very insightful, "Underground rivers can be consolidated and channeled. I think the water and soil conditions here are a bit too ambitious for afforestation. It would be best to plant some sea buckthorn shrubs. They are not eye-catching and can also prevent water and soil erosion."
A monk said, "Yao Guang, Ku Yi, Kuai Xu, only Kuai Xu is the most difficult to defend here. One is the terrain, and the other is the strength of the northwest cultivation world. In the future, it is basically impossible to rely on the northwest's own strength to maintain it. The mainland has to take
Come up with an appropriate response.”
This time the southeastern army entered the desert very deep. The coalition forces advanced five thousand miles into the desert before meeting up with the southeastern army. Flags fluttered and dark clouds covered the sun. The army of over ten thousand human monks were all at least the Golden Core level. This was unprecedented in the history of the mainland.
This is also the first time.
After the rendezvous, the heads and heads gather together to decide the next step of the army. Should they advance or retreat?
Zhixuan glanced at Hou Zi meaningfully. There has been no suspense about the demonic trouble this time since the battle in the southwest. The original trend of demonic beasts from five directions advancing side by side was completely broken. In fact, since the destruction of the Lizhihai clan, the demonic beasts have been
I am afraid that the clan has begun to retreat, and the next thing is just to follow the trend, and it is natural.
"Master Hou is the hero of the Lizhihai battle. Since there are precedents, what do you think of the undead creatures in the Paixu Desert?"
Hou Zi said calmly, "What can I say? If you can find the undead creature's nest, it would be best to complete the battle in one battle; but they have no nests and are scattered across the vast desert..."
Everyone is a knowledgeable person, and they all understand the specific environment of the Kuexu Desert; not being able to find a target for a decisive battle is the biggest problem for mankind.
Undead creatures are not picky about their living environment. They neither build cities nor live on water and grass. There is simply no way for them to have to fight head-on with humans.
Taoist Rongguang snorted, "What are we still discussing? We all know that the only way to destroy the undead creatures is to wait for them to come out on their own. Otherwise, we may not be able to find them even if we wander around the desert for decades.
What."
Their southeastern army supported the northwest. They fought several battles in the early days and gained a lot. However, they failed to find a decisive battle with undead creatures several times. Obviously, there are things from outside the universe among the undead creatures.
The situation is basically the same across the entire continent. Human beings are willing to fight but cannot find opportunities. The Kuaixu Desert, Tianjiyang, Yiyi Mountains, and Yaoguang Mountains provide the demon clan with great strategic depth and allow humans to cultivate.
Jie Kong has all his strength but no place to vent it.
Only monks at the level of true kings can truly suppress these monsters.
Xia Mingzi smiled slightly, "Actually, there is still a way, just like the sword veins go deep into the Lizhi Sea, attracting the sea tribe to encircle and suppress them. When the time comes, we will join forces to encircle them..."
Hou Zi flatly refused, "How can two different things be applied so easily? No matter how stupid the demon clan is, they can suffer the same loss twice? There are too many conditions that cannot be replicated in the victory of Lihai. There is the Nantian Gate hanging outside, and there is the Blue Mountain.
Daoyuanci Shenshan is prohibited, and the leading extraterrestrial monster is whimsical. Which of these conditions does the Kuaixu Desert account for?
Of course, if everyone thinks this is okay and is willing to stay in Paixu for ten to several decades, I, Jianmai, will also be willing to go in and transfer for a few years, but it’s hard to say whether anything can be transferred out.”
Zhixuan tried to smooth things over, "It's better not to waste your efforts. Such a victory can never be repeated. Tens of thousands of miles of desert, don't kill us again. Fellow Daoist Cui, Fellow Daoist Ye, what do you two think?"
Cui Huizuo was the envoy of the Qin clan, and Ye Shanggao was the senior envoy of the Jin clan. After all, their orthodoxy was rooted in the northwest, and their opinions needed to be sought.
Ye Shanggao said expressionlessly, "It's time to withdraw. Let's make a long-term plan."
Cui Huizuo said calmly, "I have no objection."
A consensus was formed, and this time the human-monster war came to an end. It was an anticlimax, leaving the suspense to the future.
The army slowly retreated from the Kuexu Desert. It was actually not easy to gather like this, and it would be very difficult to do it a second time.
Hou Zi found Cui Huizuo, "The sword veins refuse to penetrate deeply. What does Brother Cui think?"
Cui Huizuo smiled calmly and said, "Master, why should you be worried? The Qin Sect is not a short-sighted person, and some key points can still be seen clearly. We are very grateful for the support from the Southeast, but the root is still the victory of the Blue Island, and the Southeast Dao Sect is just taking advantage of this.
It's just about buying people's hearts; if they send troops to help the northwest at the beginning of the beast tide, that's a favor, but waiting to send troops after the southwest is victorious is another matter. Even though I'm not talented, I can't see this at all.
clear."
Hou Zi secretly praised in his heart that Ambassador Cui was a sensible person. He had to explain. Next to him, Yin Qingsi was very angry.
"You didn't even bother to go in and try."
Hou Zi smiled bitterly, "I dare to go into Lizhihai because all the Taoists in the Southwest are of the same mind and have the same attitude towards the Lizhihai tribe. But with the current coalition, I can only trust this mere Southwest."
One to two thousand people.
I don’t know how far the Northeast Buddhism Sect is willing to go; I don’t know if the Wuqing Dao will cause trouble; I don’t even know what the Southeast Dao Sect’s intentions are.
A soldier is a deadly weapon; I don't care who my opponent is, but I do care who my companions are; if the army hangs alone but has its own thoughts, then this battle cannot be fought."
Yin Qingsi snorted and said nothing more. Who doesn't understand this? All so-called coalition forces in the history of war actually failed in the end for the same reason.
Even practitioners cannot escape from this vicious circle.
