Thick clouds blocked the sunlight, and the sky and earth became dark.
The dragon roared loudly and rushed to the shore. Then it dived into the swamp.
High waves rolled up in the big swamp and hit the shore, forming many depressions.
Wang Meng led his troops to retreat, leaving Gu Bo alone to fight the dragon.
Gu Bo was obviously no match for Jiao Long, so he hurriedly ran away.
He used his body skills to dodge the dragon's bombardment. As for the fierce knife in his hand, he never dared to use it again for fear of further arousing the viciousness of the evil dragon.
Wan Ping's army suffered heavy casualties, and the dragon ate one bite and ate an unknown number of soldiers.
"Evil beast!"
Gu Bo was furious when he saw it, and quickly walked away quickly.
He cannot resist this evil dragon alone. He must at least go back to Guyue City and find his elder brother Bai Cai.
In addition, he has to submit another copy to the Shrine General.
What kind of cultivator did you send here? What about the All-Spirit Array that you agreed on?
Summoned a cold dragon?
He was beaten and seriously injured as soon as he confronted him.
Thinking of this, Gu Bo couldn't help but secretly thought that Wang Meng was too cunning.
There is obviously a Taoist master in the team, but he doesn't show it.
He suffered the loss because of the information asymmetry. He didn't know that Wang Meng's army of only 10,000 people actually had Taoist masters, and judging from the lethality, his cultivation level was at least at the stage of pill formation.
A monk in the Dan Formation Stage is equivalent to a middle-grade warrior in the Strength Realm.
But it is rarer and more precious than the middle-level warriors.
In this battle, Gu Bo failed to protect the cultivator, and the Wanping Sect would definitely cause trouble for him later, so he could only advance his position and put himself on the moral high ground.
No one can stop the cold dragon, and it goes crazy.
It rolled up a large swamp and swallowed hundreds of people.
In the end, both sides were forced to evacuate. In a sense, although it swallowed hundreds of people, it saved more people.
In a hand-to-hand combat with bayonets on both sides, the final victory would be extremely brutal.
Wang Meng led the rebel army to retreat all the way.
Soon, Wang Meng saw a group of people in the distance, with a big flag with the word "Cao" flying high.
"Cao Su is here!"
Wang Meng's eyes lit up.
.......
Cao Su brought nearly two thousand people.
Wang Meng reduced his number to only 8,000 men. Adding Cao Su's 2,000 men, he had more than 10,000 elite troops.
The army rested here.
"Sir, the roar in front is..."
Wang Meng was not surprised that Cao Su could hear sounds more than ten miles away. After all, Cao Su was now a sixth-grade master and had internal energy in his body. It was normal to hear sounds from a distance, not to mention that the roar of the dragon was so loud.
"It was a dragon that suddenly rushed out of the swamp, completely disrupting my plan."
"Gu Bo is about to be hacked to death by me, what a pity!"
Wang Meng shook his head, hesitating as if "Destiny is not mine".
In the distance, Taoist Qingxiao flew with his sword and landed in front of Cao Su.
Cao Su clasped his fists and saluted: "Master Qingxiao, you are polite."
"I've met General Cao."
Qing Xiao smiled. The last time he saw Cao Su, Cao Su was still a captain. In an instant, he became a general among thousands of people and was promoted very quickly.
Cao Su looked at Wang Meng: "Your Excellency, you have already prepared to ambush Gu Bo?"
Wang Meng sneered: "Gu Bo has been waiting for me to go. He set a trap and thought I didn't know. What a joke."
Cao Su didn't quite understand, what's the trick?
Qingxiao saw Cao Su's confused look and took the initiative to explain to Cao Su, appearing very easy-going.
There is no trace of the arrogance of a monk.
"Gu Bo invited a Taoist from the Wanping Sect. Here, he is the one I have."
Qing Xiao has been carrying a corpse, which is that of the ascetic.
Cao Su took a look and saw that after the ascetic died, the corpse was no different from that of an ordinary person.
Likewise, Qi and blood dissipate, and spiritual thoughts return to nothingness.
Qingxiao said: "This is a monk from the Wanping Sect who is in the alchemy stage. He is a monk who knows how to summon spirits. The Wanling Array that has been set up around the inn relies on the particularity of the ancient Yuezhe.
Prepare to summon all spirits to fight."
"However, Pindao has already seen through his little trick. He waited for the last moment of his 'spiritual summoning' to show up, and then used his 'flying fairy' move to take his head off."
Qingxiao's face was filled with excitement. The golden flying sword that came from the sky just now was really stunning.
He directly pierced the Taoist's spiritual platform with a sword, broke his magic circle, and severely injured him.
As for the subsequent Earth Break and God-Slaying Sense, they are just routine operations and are not worth publicizing.
Cao Su probably understood. Wang Meng used one move to get the better of Gu Bo.
He praised: "Taoist Priest Qingxiao is really powerful. The 'Flying Immortal from Heaven' sounds very powerful. How did you cultivate it? Priest Taoist, do you think I have a chance to learn it?"
"well?"
Qingxiao didn't know that Cao Su was talking nonsense. When he heard that someone was learning from him, he immediately looked Cao Su up and down very seriously.
Cao Su was eight feet tall and burly, with a warrior's surging Qi and blood burning like the sun.
Cultivating Taoism... depends on whether you have spiritual roots. Can you have spiritual roots if your muscles are trained horizontally and you add qi and blood?
Qingxiao fell silent. After experiencing a strong psychological struggle, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, if General Cao wants to practice Taoism, I will definitely accept you if he dares to show his old face..."
What is this nonsense.
Do I embarrass you?
Cao Su couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
Wang Meng saw that the two of them were getting more and more outrageous, so he quickly interrupted Qing Xiao and said to Cao Su: "Cao Su, according to what you see, what will the Wanping Army do next?"
Come to ask for advice again?
Cao Su felt that although what he said was clear and logical, Wang Meng also had a lot of ideas.
For example, in this battle at the boundary of Guyue, we did not go to capture Yanzhong in the end. Instead, we struggled to draw out the main force of the Wanping Army from Guyue City.
So Cao Su didn't want to speak his mind.
After hearing Wang Meng's question, he shook his head helplessly and said: "After experiencing such things, everyone has a shadow in their hearts. It is probably difficult for the Wanping Army under Gu Bo to come out, and it is difficult to say what Bai Cai said."
Psychological shadow, this is indeed a problem.
Wang Meng noticed that his soldiers were all in shock.
It's not a big deal if you get blood in a battle, but seeing such a huge creature appear on the battlefield puts a lot of pressure on people's hearts.
Even he, Wang Meng, has been thinking about the appearance of Jiaolong just now.
The huge body of more than ten feet, the ferocious dragon head, and the face full of fishy wind.
Thinking about it, my mind was swaying for a while.
That being said, the team still needs to do some mental building up first?
This is too difficult to carry...
Wang Meng also fell silent. He was not in a hurry to kill the rebels, but General Right was currently fighting in Xunshan City. If he let the rebels here go, it would be detrimental to the overall war situation. In the future, Wang Meng would definitely be blamed for settling the scores.
"Sir, where has General Right's army marched? Has it entered the boundary of Xunshan Mountain?"
Cao Su has no direct contact with General You. They are quite far apart, and they don't know General You's whereabouts.
Wang Meng, however, had another method of communication and was always in contact with General You.
After hearing Cao Su's question, Wang Meng said in a deep voice: "General Right's 100,000-strong army arrived at the border of Xunshan Mountain just yesterday."
"The Wanping Army in Xunshan City did not defend Xunshan City. It is said that they have set up camp at a valley point in the Xunshan Mountains and are ready to welcome the right general at any time."
Tianniu Taoist went out to fight in the city?
This choice also surprised Cao Su.
Logically speaking, if the ordinary Wanping army saw the imperial court's 100,000 tiger troops, why not defend the city and wait for reinforcements?
What ability does Tianniu Taoist have that he dares to fight in the field with the imperial army?
Could it be that he really followed the example of General Jingu and relied on the high and precipitous mountains to take advantage of the geographical advantages?
"If the right general has arrived at the boundary of Xunshan, how can we sit here and wait for the war over there to end? We must take the initiative and go to Guyue City to force Bai Cai. Gu Bo and the other two cannot leave the city."
Cao Su's first thought was to fight to the gates of Guyue City.
Like Wang Meng, he must not take the blame.
As long as they go to Guyue City, even if they fail to stop Bai Cai in the future, Gu Bo and Gu Bo will meet the requirements of General You from a moral point of view.
And if you keep wandering around Daze, you will lose your confidence in the future.
After Wang Meng heard Cao Su's suggestion, he finally made up his mind.
"Cao Su, what you said makes sense."
"In this case, after the brothers have a short rest for a day, we will immediately get ready and set off to attack Guyue City. We will not attack the city. We will only keep an eye on Bai Cai and Gu Bo. We will force the two thieves to trap Guyue and wait for the news from the right general.
."
Cao Su clasped his fists and saluted: "Your Excellency, you are wise."
........
A few days later, Wang Meng's army of more than 10,000 troops approached Guyue City.
Guyue City is located on an open land to the south of many large swamps, and is built along the northern swamps.
Further south from Guyue City is an open plain.
Walking southeast from the plain, you can see a mountain range, which is the Xunshan Mountain Range, which is also the southeastern gateway of Yuzhou.
