Thousands of miles of fertile wilderness north of the Qingluo River, there is no danger to defend.
Wan Ping's army immediately marched north and west.
He went north and brought the war to Lingzhou.
Moving westward, we begin to approach the border of Lushan.
When talking about Lushan, we also have to talk about famous families in the world.
Although the Qianyuan Dynasty founded the country with military force, it ruled the world with literature. Lushan Mountain is the holy mountain in the hearts of literati in the world. Lushan Academy has trained a large number of famous scholars and scholars during these thousands of years, and has made great contributions to the Qianyuan Dynasty.
An indelible contribution.
The terrain of Lushan is also very important. To the north of Lushan is Yuzhou.
Yuzhou is also a fertile wilderness with no danger to defend.
Yuzhou is very big, and only a thousand miles further to the west can you see Shenguan.
Only after passing the divine pass can you enter the realm of the divine capital.
It’s hard to remember how long the mountains and rivers used to be, and hundreds of years pass by in a dream.
The cultural significance of Lushan is greater than the political significance than the military significance. The Wanping Army's capture of Lushan is equivalent to seizing the bridgehead to march into Yuzhou.
From then on, we relied on Lushan Mountain to attack when we advanced, and when we retreated, we could defend it.
The defeat of Jiangning Prefecture was a bellwether for the entire southern country to further fall into war. In addition to Tongzhou, Pingzhou and Ruzhou, which were in rebellion from the beginning, several states further to the southwest also became restless.
Several other armies sent by the imperial court were besieged on all sides and were in dire straits.
At the same time, the main force of Jiangning Prefecture's Wanping Army sent down a partial division and headed straight for Pingcheng.
.........
Restlessness spread throughout Pingcheng.
When Cao Su returned to the army, he found that Wang Meng was looking for him everywhere.
"Quickly gather the troops and follow me to Baisha River."
Baisha River?
What happened to Baisha River?
Baisha River is a large river in Pingcheng and a main tributary of Qingluo River. You can see Baisha River if you go south from Pingcheng.
Only after crossing the Baisha River can we reach Wucheng.
"Don't ask so many questions. We'll talk about it on the way."
Wang Meng didn't say much to Cao Su, and hurriedly led his soldiers to find others.
After a while, hundreds of sergeants gathered at the camp in the north of the city.
With a wave of his hand, Wang Meng led the hundreds of soldiers and hurried out of the city.
Because it was an urgent journey, the necessary supplies were not fully prepared. The dry food the soldiers brought with them could only last four or five days at most, and they would need to move in for supplies after that.
Wang Meng's troops left Pingcheng and headed southwest.
Directly south is Xiaoyun Mountain, and this direction will obviously not pass through Xiaoyun Mountain.
"General Wang came to see you just now?"
When Cao Su was away, Wang Meng ordered Zhao Xi and Shi Yong to assemble Cao Su's troops.
Because there was no order from Cao Su, it was more difficult to assemble.
Zhao Xi is a little better. As the leader of Cao Su's personal soldiers, he must represent Cao Su on the surface. Shi Yong is just a disciple of the same martial arts school as Cao Su's master. Even if he is born with supernatural powers and is brave in battle, it doesn't matter. They are at the same level.
Difficult to restrain.
It was not until Cao Su returned that the troops were assembled.
Zhao Xi heard Cao Su's question and responded "yes" with his hands raised.
"Did you explain anything?"
"This...the general only asked us to gather the troops and follow him out of the city, without explaining the whole story."
Zhao Xi was confused and perfectly performed the look of a big-headed soldier.
Cao Su asked in vain. When he saw the centurion Li Li who was dozens of steps away from him, he took the initiative to step forward and ask Li Li.
Li Li was a Centurion of the Realm who had encountered an ambush by the Wanping Cult in the inner city with Cao Su. He had been under Wang Meng's command for a short time. He was powerful and had a high status.
He indeed knew the purpose of the march, so he lowered his voice and revealed the information to Cao Su.
"I heard it, I heard it too."
"Hundreds of people suddenly died at Baisha Ferry on the Baisha River last night."
Cao Su was shocked and looked at Li Li.
Li Li always likes to exaggerate, but he should still be very principled. He shouldn't report false news on this kind of thing, right?
But Cao Su still couldn't believe it and said bluntly: "Is this true?"
Hundreds of people died overnight, which in normal times would be enough reason for Pingcheng's army to dispatch.
But these are troubled times, and Pingcheng's future path is still unclear. It does not seem to be a good thing to rush to the army.
Cao Su didn't know that the Wanping Army had already attacked with a partial force, he just instinctively felt that it was unreasonable.
Could it be that Wei Tao wanted to transfer his troops and directed and acted in the tragedy?
His expression changed suddenly, and his thoughts were racing.
"This can still be fake. There is only the second gang leader of the Sanshou Gang. He escaped from a birthday party in the city a few days ago. All the other gangs died. This is a big gang with hundreds of people!"
Sanshou Gang?
Are those who died from the Sanshou Gang?
Cao Su heard the name of this gang again, and things seemed to be turning into a Jianghu incident.
"The Sanshou Gang, who is engaged in the water transportation business, was wiped out last night. Is this what you mean?"
"This looks like a matter in the Jianghu, does our army have to care about it?"
Cao Su was a little confused and raised his doubts.
When asked by Cao Su, Li Li didn't understand.
But Wu Yan felt that it was too shameful to be asked by the younger generation, so after a long while, he replied: "I heard that the Sanshou Gang has always helped our big families in Pingcheng to do business.
The Sanshou Gang spent a lot of money on themselves and bought a lot of peace. When they suddenly collapsed, the hearts of the wealthy people were all in confusion..."
"Perhaps the Lord of the City just listened to the complaints of the big families? Is he determined to speak out for the big families?"
At the end of his speech, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he lost confidence.
How could the city lord stand up for a big family? When the "Lingzhou Prefecture Army" came before, the city lord scraped a layer of flesh off the big family's body.
Cao Su didn't understand either, but being in the current of the overall situation, he could only passively move forward.
Just be more cautious when marching.
When the troops stop, they take time to build up their strength, warm up their bones, and stabilize their newly promoted state.
Cultivation after reaching the power realm is not much different.
The Ninth Grade of the Strength Realm is a title given to those who have just entered the Strength Realm.
Usually, a ninth-grade force realm warrior can only complete force bone forging on a certain part of his body.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! By the time you reach the eighth level, the limbs of a warrior in the realm of strength will have completed the forging of strength bones.
This process of forging bones is the process of cultivating the realm of strength.
You still rely on Qi and blood to warm and nourish your strength bones to complete this stage of training, so warriors in the force realm will still take Qi and blood pills to practice, and the Qi and blood pills they use will be of a higher level.
Unconscious force bone forging and conscious force bone forging are the differences between force realm warriors and qi and blood warriors.
Cao Su also began to warm up and forge the strength bones of his limbs.
The advantage of his strong Qi and blood is so obvious that the forging of strength bones that would take ordinary people several months to complete, he has already achieved initial results in just a few days.
When the limbs complete the forging of strength bones, they can be called the eighth level strength realm.
Once all the bones in the body are forged, they can be said to be in the seventh level of strength.
This is a job that can last for decades for a person with little talent.
Therefore, the basic gap becomes more obvious at the Qi and Blood stage.
This is also the reason why the Four Tutu and the legendary Wutu Qi and Blood warriors will have higher achievements in the future.
And Cao Su is in the Mantu realm of Qitu, with perfect qi and blood.
The richness of his accumulated Qi and blood is unbelievable.
Cao Su's progress is rapid every day, and the strength bone forging of his right little arm is almost completed.
He majored in boxing, so it was natural for him to forge his arm strength bones first.
Cao Su could feel the imbalance in his left and right hands.
The strength of the right hand is now much higher than that of the left hand. The strength of the right hand is estimated to be more than 4,000 kilograms, and it is still rising every day.
When practicing Qigong, I often punch in the air because I use too much force with my right hand.
At this stage, the power of the air punch is just a bells and whistles, and the actual effect is not great. It can scare the qi and blood warriors who have not broken through. But if it is hit from the air on the rough-skinned and fleshy force realm warriors, it will be the same as scratching an itch, and it will not break at all.
It takes a lot of effort to defend against it.
Therefore, the power of the fist is condensed but not dispersed, and it explodes directly into the body, which is a fatal move.
Cao Su has long understood this point. A martial artist is a close-quarters killer. Only when you are close and your punches reach the flesh can you exert the maximum lethality.
........
Cao Su's hundred men followed Wang Meng's large army and marched all the way to the southwest.
Two days later, we finally arrived at the Baishui River Ferry that Li Li mentioned.
The ferry turned out exactly as Li Li said.
It was like it was attacked and turned into ruins.
Wisps of white smoke scattered in all directions.
The smell of burning wood was everywhere in the air, and from time to time, some corpses that had not completely melted could be seen on the ground.
There are no boats at the ferry, and the entire ferry is deserted.
When the officers and soldiers of the government army saw this scene, their colors changed and they looked at each other in confusion.
"Brothers, the thieves burned my home and destroyed my ferry. They are heinous and deserve to be punished!"
Wang Meng roared angrily and said bitterly.
Wang Meng's prestige among the soldiers was very high. Under these words, everyone could not help but feel their blood surge and feel the same.
After the shock, there was overwhelming anger.
"General, there is still one alive here!"
At this time, someone suddenly shouted out while the government sergeants were searching among the ruins of the ferry.
"Who is so strong?"
When Cao Su heard this, he quickly walked over to find out the whole story.
