In the ice sculpture, the horrified expression of the man in black solidified, and the soul in the sea of consciousness was also frozen, completely losing its breath of life.
In fact, Marshal Battle looked at the look on the man in black and knew that the other party may not have deliberately deceived him, but the Beiliang Army had lost a master-level general and nearly nine thousand elites, and someone had to be responsible for this.
And the man in black is the scapegoat.
After killing the man in black, Battelle's anger finally subsided temporarily and he began to think about how to take revenge.
He also has a master-level general under his command, but his strength is worse than that of Tuoba Lie. He can't do anything to the fourth prince Wei Xiao unless he takes action himself.
But if he abandoned his camp and attacked Youyunguan himself, and General Yang Zhan took the opportunity to attack the Beiliang Army's camp, then all his 100,000 elite troops would be wiped out.
Who knows if this is Yang Zhan's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?
However, Bater was an old man and soon thought of a way to deal with Chu He, the fourth prince. He quickly wrote a letter and had it sent to the capital of Wei Dynasty.
In fact, the Wei Dynasty does not lack generals who are good at conquering and fighting, but in border confrontations, it is always passive because of internal struggles for power. Therefore, he has to use the power within the Wei Dynasty to deal with the fourth prince Wei Xiao.
Just like Jin Wushu used the power of Song Ting to get rid of Yue Fei.
At the same time, on the high mountains near Youyunguan.
A man in black with a knife on his waist was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, but suddenly he felt a movement in his chest. He opened his eyes instantly and took out a white soul tablet from his arms.
However, the soul card at this time actually cracked, and his expression changed involuntarily: "Shadow is actually dead!"
Immediately, the man in black reacted and knew the reason.
He had just witnessed the defeat of the Beiliang Army with his own eyes, and even Tuoba Lie, a master-level warrior, died tragically under Chuhe's knife.
The Northern Liang Army suffered such a huge loss, how could Marshal Battle not be angry? I'm afraid Shadow was killed as a scapegoat by the angry Battle!
Nowadays, the fourth prince can kill even Tuoba Lie, so he must have master-level strength. Even if Battle wants to kill him, it will not be easy for him.
It is impossible to complete your assassination mission!
As the gold medal killer of the Bloody Clothes Building, the man in black understands the consequences of mission failure.
But he quickly thought of a way out, which was to bring back the information about the Fourth Prince Wei Xiao.
The man in black thought of the huge mysterious dharma shown by Chu He. It was precisely because of the appearance of this mysterious dharma that the strength of the 2,500 Wei soldiers was greatly increased, and they were able to defeat the 10,000 Beiliang cavalry.
He has seen many methods to enhance the strength of soldiers. For example, the six major cultivation sects have Taoist formations, which integrate the power of all Taoist soldiers through the power of formations to form local attacks and enhance defense.
Another example is taking a potion that stimulates potential, which can greatly increase combat power, but the cost is overdraft of life, loss of lifespan, or even death.
But he had never seen the fourth prince's secret technique to enhance the combat power of the entire army without any hidden dangers.
The value of this information is absolutely extremely high. Coupled with the information that the fourth prince has master-level combat power, the contribution of these two pieces of information should be enough to offset the penalty for mission failure.
Immediately, he used Qinggong and left quickly.
At the same time, inside Youyun Pass.
Chu He had some exchanges with his uncle Yang Sheng, and also learned about the cause of death of Concubine Yang, the mother of the fourth prince Wei Xiao.
Concubine Yang was born as a general and had fought on the battlefield. Her martial arts skills had also reached the advanced stage of innateness. She could live to at least 120 years old, so it was impossible for her to die young. She was killed by a spell, and her death was extremely miserable, with her seven orifices bleeding to death.
.
Emperor Wei once searched the palace thoroughly for this reason, but did not find any clues. Also because the murderer was not found, Emperor Wei felt guilty for Concubine Yang and became more concerned about the eldest princess and the fourth prince, even though the fourth prince was uneducated and incompetent.
, still canonized him as the county king, and even secretly sent people to protect him.
According to Yang Sheng's speculation, the former queen hanged herself in the cold palace at that time, and the concubines in the harem were all vying for the throne.
The most competitive ones at that time were Concubine Li and Concubine Xian Yang.
Because they have the deepest backgrounds, behind the Li family is the Li family, one of the four major cultivation families, and behind Concubine Yang is Yang Zhan, the general of Zhenbeigong who is in charge of the north.
However, Concubine Yang died and Concubine Li became the new queen.
Therefore, Yang Sheng always suspected that the murderer was the current queen, the second prince's mother-in-law.
The reason why Yang Zhan fully supported Chu He in seizing the legitimate son was because he was unwilling to do so and wanted revenge!
As a general and the number one martial artist in the Wei Dynasty, his own daughter was killed, but he could not take revenge. How frustrating it was!
Therefore, he wanted to push Chu He to ascend the throne, and then seek revenge on Li and the Queen.
In addition, Chu He also knew that Yang Zhan actually had three sons, but the eldest son Yang Rui and the third son Yang Fan both died on the battlefield because of the war with Beiliang.
Yang Zhan's positions as Duke of Zhenbei and General were obtained with sacrifice and merit.
He has paid so much for Wei, but his daughter was killed and he was unable to take revenge. This shows the anger in his heart!
Therefore, the Yang family has been accumulating strength over the years to prepare for revenge. In addition to cultivating masters and elites, they have also secretly accumulated a large number of weapons and armor.
The 3,000 pieces of armor and 3,000 fine steel guns needed by Chu He's army soul troops are all available at Tianmen Pass, and Yang Sheng promised to deliver them to him early tomorrow morning.
Immediately, Yang Zhan asked about Chu He's military soul.
Chu He didn't hide anything and told him the general abilities of the Military Soul Dharma Appearance.
Originally, Yang Sheng was planning to increase Chuhe's troops to 10,000, but he gave up after hearing this.
Because the greater the number of these pseudo-military soul arms, the smaller the strength of the military soul method will be, so the number should not be too large.
Not long after, Yang Sheng left Tianmen Pass with 3,500 prisoners.
There were too many prisoners, and staying at Youyunguan was a hidden danger, so Chuhe gave them to Yang Sheng.
Immediately, he summoned the ghosts of the two dead soldiers and gave them two choices. They also chose to become ghost cultivators.
At this time, the ghost cultivators under Chu He gathered together a team of ten people.
Although their strength is insignificant, they are the most suitable night scout troops.
Therefore, Chu He taught them ghost cultivation techniques and became under the command of Shen Yanfei, a ghost-level ghost.
Then, he consumed Xuansha's energy and transformed the Beiliang Army deputy general and six thousand captains he captured this time into ghost-level ghosts.
Then came the familiar training process. After unbearable soul pain and Shen Yanfei's persuasion, the seven ghosts contributed their own secret techniques and were saved.
Chuhe also received 70 merit points and 70,000 experience points.
At this time, Chu He checked the attribute table. The experience value was 505600 and the merit value was 35190.
If the merit points are converted into experience points, he has more than 4 million experience points, which is enough to upgrade both the Golden Elephant Skill and the Qingyang Secret Code to the tenth level of Qi Refining Realm.
However, he did not rush to improve his strength. Instead, he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, breathing in spiritual energy to restore the power of the military soul that was lost in the military soul method.
