This valley is fifty or sixty miles long from beginning to end, that is, the outer valley is more than twenty miles, and the inner valley is more than thirty miles. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is two small basins connected together.
Moreover, the terrain of the valley here is steep, with a large river on the left side of the valley and a huge crack on the right side.
Although the crack is only a dozen miles long, it is at the entrance to the valley.
In addition, the terrain of the valley is at an inclined angle. If the heavy artillery is placed behind the valley, its altitude will be hundreds of meters higher than the valley entrance.
At this time, heavy artillery pieces had been pulled to the peak behind the valley, pointing directly at the mouth of the valley.
At the entrance of the valley, areas were divided into areas, forming a grid similar to the one in the battle of Yuntian City, which facilitated the soldiers who wielded swords and heavy artillery to carry out precise strikes.
Originally there were many woods in the outer valley, but now the woods have been doused with kerosene. After the shelling, the woods will burst into flames.
Although most demons are not afraid of fire, their beast instincts will drive them towards the path left in the middle, causing further confusion and increasing the killing effect.
Everyone in Lingxiao City was preparing in an orderly manner.
Fang Linghai, Liu Jingtao, Wuyou and others looked at the heavy artillery being pulled to the best viewing position with surprise in their eyes.
"Hearing is better than seeing. This time I am finally lucky enough to understand the true power of the 'Sharp Sword' heavy artillery."
"A heavenly master can also step onto the battlefield, and with the help of a 'sharp sword', his combat power is astonishing? It's really eye-opening."
"It is rumored that the 'Sharp Sword' heavy artillery can kill even high-level demons... Even the bodies of high-level demons cannot stop it. Wouldn't it be a human cultivator..."
Several people's eyes looked back and forth, as if they wanted to see clearly how powerful this war weapon was.
After a series of arrangements throughout the ages, several True Lords of Yuanshen were found.
"Everyone, we have made preparations here. The next step is up to you. As soon as you lead the monsters into the valley, we will give them a fatal blow."
Tao from ancient times to modern times.
Everyone's eyes turned away from the sharp swords and heavy cannons.
Among them, Fang Linghai said cautiously: "We will abandon Lengfeng Fortress and use a large-scale retreat to introduce the demons into this valley..."
He looked at the past and present: "When we get to the valley, I'll ask the Lord of Guzhou."
If they had been unable to stop the demonic charge in Calabash Valley since ancient times, they would have suffered extremely heavy losses if they left the fortress without any danger to defend.
"Are you going to abandon Lengfeng Fortress?"
People from ancient times to the present have been a little surprised: "Is it too deliberate?"
"Won't."
Fang Linghai said with a wry smile: "In fact, Lengfeng Fortress has existed in name only. During this period, this fortress was almost equivalent to a meat grinder, and it was a meat grinder that had been running for two months. No matter how strong it is,
All the defenses will be completely destroyed by such a collision. Even if the Lord of Guzhou does not come, we will have to retreat to Hanyue City in the central and southern part of Lanzhou in three to five days at most."
"good."
Gu Jinlai nodded: "As long as the demons enter the valley, I will definitely make them never come back."
Fang Linghai nodded vigorously and led everyone to leave.
"The demons in Muzhou are different from the demons in Tianhe. Although the number of demons in Muzhou is only 70,000, and more than 10,000 were lost in the fierce battle in the past two months, leaving less than 60,000, the quality of the demons in Muzhou is better than that in Tianhe.
The demons are much higher. There have been more than twenty high-ranking demons that we have fought with during this period. You must be careful."
Liu Jingtao ordered.
At the end, he also sent a message: "If nothing can be done, you can reserve your strength and withdraw from Hulu Valley."
"I see."
Ancient and modern nodded.
Liu Jingtao looked concerned, then turned and left.
After he left, the devil's personal guards were arranged for defense throughout the ages.
The main defense point is at the narrow spot from the outer valley to the inner valley of Hulu Valley.
The retreating Leng Yue Sect, Huangquan Sect, and Purgatory Sect were the main guards and were assisted by the Demon God's personal guards.
It is only less than a mile wide, with steep mountains on both sides. Although demons can still climb over it, the steep terrain slows down their progress more than the city walls.
In addition, the mountains have been defended by the devil's personal guards since ancient times, and the speed of the devil's advance here is bound to be greatly hindered.
"The demons want to put on a show, so we will accompany them to put on a good show."
Throughout the ages, we have looked up.
At the end of the field of vision, the demon's destiny deep in Muzhou still hasn't moved much.
Instead, the luck that invaded Lanzhou was constantly surging and rolling forward, and was about to collide head-on with the luck from all directions headed by Leng Yuezong.
…
The war in Lanzhou is about to break out.
At this time, in Tianhe, a huge army pulling thirty sharp swords and heavy artillery was slowly crossing the river.
This is the elite army led by General Shang Zhenbei.
These thirty heavy cannons were purchased by the Daqian royal family for ninety shares of immortal fine gold.
It was precisely because the thirty heavy cannons were sold to the Daqian royal family that they rushed to Lanzhou with one hundred and eight heavy cannons.
"Be careful, these are treasures, there can't be any mistakes in any of them."
Shang Zhenbei commanded the soldiers.
There are several Dan Bao masters arranged next to each heavy cannon to guard them to prevent accidents.
Next to him was a middle-aged man wearing silver scale armor.
This kind of outfit...
He is the most elite Qian Tianwei of the Daqian Empire.
The nature of the Qian Tianwei is similar to that of the Meteorite Guard. They are the most elite special operations team in Daqian. The selection criteria are Qi Refining Realm cultivation.
Because of this strict selection requirement, the Qiantian Guards numbered no more than 10,000, and they only obeyed the orders of His Majesty the Emperor.
This time, deputy commander Ding Luoyang led the troops to meet Shang Zhenbei, guarding thirty-meter swords and heavy artillery along the way.
Of course, Qian Tianwei said that he completely obeyed the orders of Emperor Jiang Tianji, but over the years, the major clans in Zhongzhou have also infiltrated Qian Tianwei.
Thirty heavy artillery pieces like these would inevitably pass through several cities controlled by top wealthy families on their way to the imperial capital, and they would rest in the city for a few days in the name of rest.
These days are a precious opportunity for these wealthy families to study sharp swords and heavy artillery to see if they can imitate them.
"Thirty heavy cannons and ninety pieces of immortal fine gold are almost equivalent to ninety high-grade spiritual weapons. The top-grade spiritual weapons owned by a top sect can only be thirty or forty, or even twenty or thirty. Lingxiao City is really
The lion opens his mouth wide."
Ding Luoyang looked at the sharp swords and heavy cannons being transported across the river, and said with some dissatisfaction: "As the governor of Xingzhou in ancient and modern times, he doesn't even understand the principle of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor."
Shang Zhenbei glanced at him and did not agree. Instead, he said: "Guzhou Lord guards Xingzhou and fights demons, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Naturally, he has his own difficulties."
"Difficulties, they have difficulties, don't we have no difficulties? Today, there are two cracks in the devil world in Zhongzhou and one in Rizhou. Aren't these three cracks sealed by us? Will they die in our hands?
There may not be fewer demons than those in ancient and modern times, but we will not be like him, taking credit for our own merits, General Shang said, right?"
Ding Luoyang said.
Shang Zhenbei didn't know who Deputy Commander Ding represented, so he didn't dare to answer easily. He just said: "That's true, but Lingxiao City defeated the demons and killed tens of thousands of demons in Tianhe, including a top demon king.
Since merit is rewarded with ninety pieces of immortal gold, it is not an exaggeration."
"Rewards and purchases cannot be confused. Then Lingxiao City..."
Ding Luoyang was about to say something else, but Shang Zhenbei seemed to have something in his heart and suddenly looked towards the end of the sky.
But in the distance, a piece of white cloud covering the sky was suddenly torn apart.
Hundreds of black spots shuttled out from the white clouds, flying in this direction like arrows.
"Demon bird!?"
Shang Zhenbei's expression changed.
He immediately rose up with his sword and soared into the sky.
But at this time, he seemed to have noticed something from a high position and looked around.
I could see the Tianhe River surging violently in the distance, and a large amount of waves kept splashing, and quickly hit their ferry.
It's like there are a lot of creatures moving crazily underwater.
This change made Shang Zhenbei realize something instantly and shouted loudly: "The demon is coming! Protect the spiritual weapon!"
Ding Luoyang even issued an order: "All hundreds of households, bring the 'Sharp Sword' heavy artillery back ashore!"
Why can the Tianhe demon block the north from the south!?
This is due to the geographical advantages they occupy in Tianhe.
They made waves on the river, and after wreaking havoc, they only needed to hide at the bottom of the river, and even the flying swords of the great cultivators of the God Transformation could do nothing to them.
Therefore, neither Shang Zhenbei nor Ding Luoyang dared to fight the monsters on the river.
"Hurry up!"
Shang Zhenbei kept urging the soldiers. At the same time, he raised his head and looked up at the hundreds of demonic birds tearing down from the clouds and killing them at incredible speeds. He planned to hold back these demonic birds with one person.
only……
In just a moment, his expression changed drastically.
Among the hundreds of demonic birds, one of them suddenly became heavier and heavier, as if a layer of bloody flames were burning on its body.
As the bloody flames boiled, the terrifying aura on this demonic bird could not be hidden and was fully released.
That kind of terrifying pressure...
"The Demon King!"
Shang Zhenbei let out a somewhat desperate cry.
He is not very afraid of ordinary demonic birds, even those that are equivalent to high-level demons.
Demonic birds are not good at fighting, and they, the True Monarchs of the Soul, can fight one against many.
But the demon king-level demon bird...
He is also a demon bird that seems to be able to hide his aura and integrate his energy, blood, and demonic nature into one body, which is equivalent to a perfect immortal demon body. Unless a heavenly being comes in person, he, the True Lord of Yuanshen, cannot resist him at all.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
Shang Zhenbei roared angrily.
He suddenly turned around and ran away with his sword at full speed.
Not only him, Ding Luoyang also made the same choice after feeling the aura of this demon king-level demon bird.
The gap between the Demon King and the True Lord Yuanshen made them dare not confront him head-on.
The two True Lords of Yuanshen led the core officers to escape, and the remaining soldiers...
What awaited them was a complete massacre.
…
A few hours later, blood stained the surface of the Tianhe River red.
Countless demons devoured the corpses of the soldiers left behind by the Zhenbei Army, like a carnival feast.
but……
This feast is obviously not over yet.
A huge demon that looked extremely ferocious, as if it was a basalt beast, was telling something to the demon bird it headed.
After a while, the demonic bird spoke sharply: "You mean... you fell into the trap of humans? You were led out of the Tianhe River by them, and you were attacked from both sides and were defeated?"
