"Hmph... they are all Han Chinese." Several magicians with earthly origins looked at them, feeling a little sad in their hearts.
They, the magicians responsible for communication and fire support, formed a team to accompany them. The composition was complicated - there were magicians who had been demoted from the six thousand real people in Han Dynasty, there were local magicians who had sneaked into the country, and there were some who had been exchanged from Dongzhou for internal support.
Qingmeng magicians, these are reliable because they are familiar with each other and have common interests.
In addition, the immortal sects in each county recruited magicians. They were all recruited by the order of the king after the Han Dynasty was granted a title. One of the magicians whispered: "We are doing well in Yingzhou and the country is established. Why bother to go on an expedition?"
Are you going to be used as cannon fodder elsewhere?"
The captain, who was wearing Hanfu, glanced at him and said, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand? You can get off the boat now if you want."
A floating cloud passed by in the transparent and narrow cabin, and the curved crescent moon sprinkled the silvery white light in, making the magician's face turn green and white. Someone behind him laughed out loud... Disembarking from the ship at such a high altitude?
No one paid attention to the response. The magician realized that he was a little boring, so he stopped talking angrily, secretly cursing these idiots who had been brainwashed by the Duke of Han.
The magician captain turned around and opened a small book, and drew a red cross on the name of the magician just now...
Because there is a lot of extra heavy equipment and food for the expedition, most of the cabins have been converted into cargo warehouses. The transport ship that can usually carry 10,000 people can now only carry 3,000 people, and the capital ship has taken advantage of the situation to carry some Taoist soldiers and magicians.
, Nuwa heard some private discussions later, so she opened the communication and said to Ye Qing: "...most of the complaints came from the immortal sects in various counties. Localism is very serious. We should rectify it when we go back."
"It's normal to be nervous before the war. You get used to it with practice. As for localism, it will be passed if you don't declare it." Ye Qing didn't care. Since the Han Dynasty was granted a heavenly seal, the military morale and the people's morale were further condensed. Even the mood of the Immortal Sect Magician was not as good as before.
The dense army is just background noise.
Of course, if you go too far, you will deal with it yourself.
If we analyze the two territories of the Han Dynasty from the conservative perspective of the Immortal Sect, Dongzhou is a barbaric land where even the soil has not been formed. The Outer Territory has no interest, and Ying Xiang also lost the opportunity for the Outer Territory due to premature yangification. If he can protect himself, he can be very calm.
.
However, in order to avoid being surrounded by enemies on all sides and to advance in the future, the host must actively provide assistance. Even former opponents can become comrades when the situation changes.
Ying Xiang was only a moment away, but Ye Qing's flying fleet arrived at the border of southern Hunan in half an hour. Probably because the flying fleet did not use fairy thunder along the way, its aura was calm and unnoticeable, and it did not directly hit the enemy ships in the outer domain.
"It seems that the Xiangyin Cave has not been breached yet..." Cao Baijing, who was accompanying her, was relieved when she saw this, and she was a little impressed: "Zhang Weicun was very ruthless. He lasted for a month until he couldn't hold on any longer before asking for help."
Ye Qing rubbed his chin, not surprised: "He is naturally afraid that if reinforcements are invited in, they will not be invited out... But it is better than attacking, because it is someone else's territory to regain, so this calculation can be shrewd... Heavenly Court is not blind.
, It’s not okay for my husband to deliberately ignore the situation, but now that he has come to help, how can he not ask his old rival for departure fees?”
Cao Baijing blinked her eyes, smiled knowingly at her husband's request for money, and turned her head to look at the ground.
The strong wind passed under the hull of the ship, and the scenery on the ground became very small when viewed from a high altitude. Even if the screen was enlarged, it was still very small. The houses were like rubble, the people were like ants, and only a gray and black atmosphere from the outside world was rising into the sky...
That is the enemy's army of terracotta warriors.
The moonlight dimly illuminated the terracotta warriors all over the ground. Villages, towns and small towns were burning under the fire. Red light rose into the sky, illuminating half of the sky in the south. Thick smoke billowed from the large and damaged areas that were hit hard. It seemed like everything had returned to three years ago.
When he was attacked by the Black Lotus for the first time.
She guessed that the Marquis of Xiang made strategic contraction in anticipation of the situation, and the local soldiers and civilians evacuated in advance in an orderly manner, and the elderly and the young were crowded on the eastward evacuation route—probably to Xiaozhou.
There were also some small-scale elite support troops on the way, under the banner of King Xin. Some cavalrymen had just landed from the exit of the waterway, and there were also some magicians and real people. The waterway system provided waterway transportation to shorten the support time, allowing them to rush to intercept the soldiers.
The forward pursuit of the warriors allowed the soldiers and civilians of southern Hunan to retreat safely.
"All forces still understand some of the truth. Unfortunately, the speed and carrying capacity of waterways cannot be balanced at the same time. The elite are elites, but it seems that there are few people and no heavy equipment, so the assistance cannot be compared with that of our airships.
"
Ye Qing objectively commented on the performance of the friendly forces, and the next sentence revealed his intention: "But it is just for us to grab the credit. A single dispatch of the airship costs a lot of spiritual stones. Let's quickly get some more oil and water back. This mainstay of turning the tide... we will
It’s my duty to do so.”
"But we must first ensure the safety of the battlefield, not a trap..."
The bow of the ship produces transparent ripples, and a beam of detection is emitted, illuminating hundreds of miles.
The fluctuations quickly returned, and all the scenery within a hundred miles radius were displayed on the main control screen. In addition to the army of warriors and warriors running around the ground, not to mention the top-level Star Lord ships and the main True Lord ships, even the ordinary
There were no Hongwu ships. Cao Baijing was a little confused: "They all ran away?"
"No." Ye Qing shook his head and zoomed in on the sensor screen. He could see that one or two flashes of light would occasionally appear on the edge of the screen. Every time it appeared, the entire screen would blink: "Look at these aura riots, they are all battles of immortal power at the immortal thunder level.
Reaction, that point should be very close to the Xiangyin Cave."
Cao Baijing observed for a while and said: "It seems that a team battle is breaking out. Are there any immortals from heaven joining in?"
"It should be based on the intelligence introduction that the heavenly court has modified the immortal ban in a targeted manner after analyzing the enemy ships. The immortal ships from the outer domain will lose their home field when they leave the outer domain. They will be further weakened when entering the home domain and the away game. They probably dare not spread their forces any more, and they are all concentrating on the siege of Xiangyin Cave...
…The Terracotta Warriors on the ground are probably just to create chaos and disturbance. They are purely cannon fodder to attract attention. That side is the key to the fairy battle in the air."
Ye Qing said this, but since he was a professional at deceiving people, he secretly used Chuanlin Notes to access the fairy ships to conduct reconnaissance. After repeatedly making sure that there were no enemy ships or enemy fairy traps nearby, he ordered each ship: "Prepare to release ground troops."
, Bai Jing, Ling Ling, Chan'er, you guys will go down soon... pay attention to your safety."
Cao Baijing looked away as soon as his eyes met his. Knowing that her husband wanted to use the ground battlefield to train them, she nodded yes.
Compared with the restricted waterway of Dragon Palace, it is better to transport the large army forces by air for rapid maneuvers. The soldiers dropped by the fairy ships from the outer realm are scattered in all directions, which is just a distraction. The immortal forces in this region do not have the time and energy to do the cleaning work.
, they have to rely on ground troops to eliminate them. They are willing to do something for their husbands.
When the fairy ship flew over the city, she connected the communications of each ship: "Every ship, please pay attention, lower the altitude, and do not use ship-level firepower... The real person will follow me out of the ship to perform beheading, and the magician group is preparing to land."
Clear the area...The height is 10,000..."
"Be careful not to act arbitrarily if you are below a real person...height is 9,000..."
In this suddenly intensive communication fluctuation, the fourteen airships never opened fire to reveal their hostile identities, they only quickly lowered their altitude, and the landing point of each ship was locked at the center of the enemy's army of soldiers and figurines.
As the hull of the ship got closer and closer to the ruins and warriors on the ground, the whole burning land rushed toward the portholes. Seeing this, the soldiers in the military cabin clenched their weapons and checked each other's seat belts.
No tethers...
Xia Houyuan was sitting in it. The feeling of weightlessness caused by free fall was more uncomfortable than the feeling of pushing back during takeoff. It gave him the illusion of losing control of his body. For northerners, it was simply more terrifying than seasickness.
"Captain, I want to vomit..."
"Xia Houyuan? It's you again, holding it in and then vomiting..."
There was a burst of laughter, and some Taoist priests with feather-clad star crowns flashed past the cabin corridor. Their strong physical strength and agility allowed them to walk freely in this state. Some Taoist soldiers like Xia Houyuan who get seasick were envious. The magic in the magician's cabin
The division team also prepared spells and waited for instructions to leave the cabin.
"Height three thousand..."
The female voice of the deputy leader was replaced by a male voice in the broadcast system. Although it was a little strange that the deputy leader was no longer at his post, everyone familiar with it knew that the new male voice was their coach and their leader.
"The altitude is 2,000, each ship locks on the target, slows down and falls...The altitude is 500, prepare to open the hatch, and the real person will leave the cabin..." The voice in the broadcast system paused and continued: "I wish everyone a safe and triumphant return."
The Han army was victorious... Xiahou Yuan withdrew his gaze and encouraged himself in his heart. The great Han hero must not embarrass the Xiahou family in the future.
The cabin suddenly became quiet. You could even hear a pin drop on the ground. You could hear the roar of air rushing into the corridor. The air pressure in the cabin increased sharply. Your eardrums were buzzing. Veterans who had gone through several drills reflexively opened their mouths.
The difference in air pressure in his mouth was relieved, and he could already smell the familiar bloody smell of the battlefield, filling his mouth.
The cabin door closed again with a bang, and the breath of the real person disappeared. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the impact of the hull landing. The atmosphere was as tight as the steel wire of a thunder ballista, waiting for the commander's order to be released.
Firepower poured out.
Amidst the billowing smoke, there was a loud noise, and the tall county government office was burned by flames. The main hall collapsed, and charred wood fell to the ground. However, the resisting soldiers were already scattered around, filling the entire venue, and blood flowed into streams.
"Sir, let's take a step forward."
Hearing the sound of the last resistance from a distance, a civil servant from the circle ran out with a sword, his eyes blood red, and rushed towards the enemy soldiers and figurines: "The evil demon destroyed my whole city and killed my people. I will fight with you...ah -
—”
More than a dozen spears were pierced into his body, and blood gushed out. The county magistrate screamed loudly and involuntarily knelt down, but he used all his strength to struggle to stand up: "I am Da Cai's official...
...How can you die on your knees..."
"Puff puff"
The magistrate's voice suddenly stopped, and he was dead. He just kept his eyes wide open, standing still without closing his eyes, and blood continued to flow from his body.
Because he stood upright, the soldier didn't seem to know that he was dead, or maybe the mechanism implanted in his mind was to ensure the complete death of the enemy, so he was still mechanically pulling out the spear and stabbing it in... Puff puff puff...
The sound of the spear entering flesh was continuous.
