Outside the Shenguan, the army of Yu Yu advanced.
When night fell, Tan Ma, who had gone out to explore, returned to the formation.
Dust was flying in the formation, and the army camped on the spot.
Yuzhou is originally a flat area, so it is easier to set up camp here.
Cao Su led 50,000 horse infantry troops to the north this time. Compared with the previous time in Xizhou, there were many more infantry and archers. The infantry was the main force, with almost 20,000 people, while the number of archers was relatively small.
There are fewer, but there are still nearly 10,000 people.
Overall, there are 20,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry, and 10,000 archers.
In addition, there were some accompanying baggage troops and logistics troops, following Cao Su's army.
"If there were only cavalry, the time to go north might be shorter."
Cao Su knew that you couldn't have your cake and eat it too, so he couldn't get all the benefits from having tens of thousands of soldiers.
As night fell, the entire Cao Jun camp seemed much quieter.
But if you look carefully, you can still see countless lights in Cao's army, which are continuous, and there is also a huge amount of energy and blood.
In this army, there are strong soldiers and horses, numerous generals, warriors of Qi, blood, and warriors of strength, countless of them.
In the dark night, no monsters dare to approach.
-----------------------
It was several miles away from Cao Jun.
Outside a low bush, several warriors with different expressions were sitting around a bonfire.
A few people were quite arrogant. They were so close to the imperial army and they dared to light a fire.
But they do have the ability to be arrogant. The few people present are all masters of the middle level of strength. If placed in the world, they are also first-class masters. Generally, beginners under the age of thirty can only see them.
Walk around.
Among the few people, there was an old man with two swords on his back. He was the calmest and had been closing his eyes to rest.
As for the other people, there were scholars in white robes, swordsmen in blue robes, and strong men wearing bamboo hats. They looked all kinds of different.
"Mr. Hui, you are the elder of Qixing Mountain, why are you here to take on such a small job? Is the business in Qixing Mountain so bad recently?"
The white-robed scholar was holding a broken-bone fan. He was talking and laughing, shaking the fan, and the air flow slightly blew over his cheeks, shaking his two dragon-bearded bangs.
Hui Lao was the old man with the two swords on his back. Hearing this, he opened his eyes. His eyes were different from those of ordinary people. They actually flashed with red light.
The white-robed scholar did not dare to look at the old man, and turned his head to other places. The same was true for several others. Qixing Mountain's martial arts was prosperous, and many of his disciples were famous for their various magical powers. Although this old man Hui was only at the fourth level of strength realm,
He possesses the Blazing Fire Poison Spirit Boy and is famous in the world. Even a third-level master may not be his opponent.
Magical powers are external moves used by warriors to greatly improve their abilities. Innate magical powers can only be encountered but cannot be sought, but acquired magical powers can be stimulated through some special methods.
It took the old man decades to train this blazing fire poison spirit boy. Once he was trained, he was promoted from an ordinary deacon in the sect to an elder.
As a result, his status in the world has skyrocketed.
When Mr. Hui heard the white-robed scholar's sarcasm, he snorted coldly: "It's not your turn to take care of the affairs of Qixing Mountain."
When the white-robed scholar heard what Mr. Hui said, a trace of anger flashed across his face, but he did not dare to say anything more and had to keep his mouth shut.
And the strong man wearing a bamboo hat came out to smooth things over: "Okay, everyone is here for Cao Su's army. This is a matter where you can make money just by walking. We should all take care of it. Don't criticize each other or cause trouble.
Everyone is unhappy."
What he said makes sense, everyone was assigned to run tasks, wasn't it just to keep things safe?
At present, Cao Jun is relatively restrained, and they are very stable. If they follow Cao Jun all the way and send the information they get back to the sect, the task will be completed and there will be no extraneous matters.
"But in my opinion, things won't be that simple."
The swordsman in green suddenly spoke.
He always had a cold look, but he didn't expect to take the initiative to participate in the conversation this time.
Several people turned to look at him, and he hesitated: "I have met Cao Su before, and I know that Cao Su is the kind of person who can't get rid of the sand in his eyes. We are so close to his army now, and maybe one day he will
Rush over and chase me away."
"Sheng Jian, don't be alarmist. If Cao Su wanted to expel him, he would have expelled him long ago. Why wait until now?"
Someone immediately refuted the Qingyi Swordsman's words, even though "The Green Swordsman Shengjian" is quite famous in the world.
Sheng Jian definitely belongs to the elders in the small place of Pingcheng, but here, the martial arts skills of several people are not inferior to Sheng Jian, so what he says may not be the truth, and it is normal for others to refute him.
Sheng Jian sneered again and again and said no more.
They won't understand some things unless they experience them themselves.
"Okay, don't say anything anymore. Let's take a rest early. We have to continue our journey tomorrow!"
Mr. Hui glanced at Sheng Jian and stopped everyone from continuing to chat.
Jianghu people are all about freedom. Seeing Hui Lao giving orders, some people immediately felt unhappy. Then several Jianghu people looked at each other, turned around and ran towards the night.
Hui Lao's expression changed and he didn't say much.
A few Jianghu people thought to themselves that their martial arts skills were so high that a mere night in the wild could not do anything to them.
Using Qinggong, they ran for several miles in one breath. Then they found a place on a high slope and started to light a fire and chat in the moonlight.
"Does a mere elder from Qixing Mountain want to control us?"
"That's right, does he think this is still Qixing Mountain? Or is it the realm of the Capital of Gods?"
Several Jianghu people are very disdainful. They are night owls. They can't sleep at night and want to find a few people to chat with. How will this affect everyone?
"Ignore him, let's talk about ours. Which sect do our brothers belong to?"
"I am from the Bailian Sect, and this is my junior brother Gui Ruhai. Where are you from?"
"Bailian Sect is a major sect in the capital of the gods. I'm disrespectful. I'm from Cuifeng Villa. We buy all our weapons from you!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Several Jianghu people knew each other's identities and immediately became familiar with each other.
This is what people in Jianghu are like. As long as you are not hostile, we are friends. As long as you are not friends, then you may be my enemy.
The simplicity of Jianghu is that you may take action even if you say something is wrong. The complexity of Jianghu is that if you act impulsively today, you may get into bigger trouble tomorrow. You will always be in constant trouble and growing up.
, if the speed of growth is not as fast as the speed of getting into trouble, it may be cool.
Several people immediately started chatting by the campfire.
However, at this moment, several people suddenly felt a hint of coldness.
"Huh? Isn't there a fire here? Where is the air conditioning coming from?"
They felt very strange and looked around subconsciously. They were still surrounded by a silent wilderness without any changes.
But due to the warrior's instinct, they all stood up subconsciously.
"Brother, something doesn't seem right."
Jianghu people have rich experience in Jianghu, and they immediately realized that the surrounding area was too quiet.
It's winter and spring now, so theoretically there should be some subtle sounds of insects and birds. Why...
Suddenly, the warrior from the Bailian Sect pulled out the long knife in his hand and let out a sharp cry: "Who are you?"
Several people followed the direction where his long knife pointed, and saw a man in black military uniform suddenly appear under the moonlight. He wore a bronze mask and stared at them with emotionless eyes.
one person?
A few people breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized, hadn't they seen that place just now?
There was no one there just now, so why does one appear now?
"I am Cao Su, brothers, would you like to chat with me?"
The first words of the man in black military uniform made several people's hands tremble with fear, and they felt as if they had been caught red-handed by the real master.
Cao Su carried a horizontal sword and hung it on his waist. He flashed like a ghost and appeared in front of several Jianghu people in an instant.
There are five Jianghu warriors in total, two from Bailian Sect and three from Cuifeng Villa.
When several people saw Cao Su displaying such an exquisite skill in lightening his body, they were shocked and raised their swords towards Cao Su as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Cao Sudan smiled and said: "I, Mr. Cao, didn't draw his sword, but how many of you treated your guests like this?"
The warrior from Bailian Sect asked in a deep voice: "Master Cao, why did you come here late at night?"
Cao Su said lightly: "You have been following me for several days, escorting me all the way to the divine level. I can't take the initiative to see who is following me."
What Cao Su said was reasonable. Several people were already wrong. When Cao Su said this, they were immediately embarrassed.
Except for the Bailian Sect, the three disciples of Cuifeng Villa were even worse at talking and had nothing to say.
Cao Su added: "The moon is bright tonight, and I don't have anything important to do here. I just want to invite you to come to my camp and observe Cao's army carefully. I wonder if you can give me a favor?"
Invitation to camp?
Several people were stunned. They didn't expect Cao Su to actually make this request.
However, they quickly realized that they were not fools. If they really entered Cao Su's camp, would they still be able to leave?
Breaking through an army of 50,000 people with just five of them? It's impossible when you think about it.
They looked at Cao Su, and none of them spoke.
I was afraid that if I said one more word, I would be forced to leave by Cao Su.
