The sun is slightly to the west, but it is not scorching, and there is no wind, which makes the smoke and dust fall as soon as it rises. It is precisely because of this that many details in the open space in front of the camp can be seen clearly.
Even the soldiers and horses of Dongdu who were watching the battle across the river were able to watch the excitement.
According to the previous army's response, the person who went to battle this time was Xu Shiying, the general of the army, and Xu Shiying's status in the gang was beyond doubt. As one of the three generals who established the gang, he had been stationed in Baima all year round, controlled the East County, and faced the Dongdu.
Later, when someone became the chief, he was established in power, and when he came to Hebei, he still served as the de facto military assistant and deputy general of the army.
Such a person actually came out to fight in a duel. This little plan before the battle was too successful!
Under the "white" banner, the British Duke Bai Hengqiu didn't even look at the headquarters army who took the opportunity to form a team. He just leaned under the banner and stared at the army generals fighting in front, his eyes obviously a little... puzzled.
"Is this person Xu Shiying?" Bai Hengqiu suddenly looked back and asked.
"This shouldn't be fake, right?" Sun Shunde, a trusted general on the side, asked in surprise. "Did the gang send a fake person to die?"
"Could it be Xu Shiren pretending to be?" Bai Hengqiu asked, but he immediately rejected it. "No, I remember Xu Shiren is Duanjiang Zhenqi, this person is Changsheng Zhenqi..."
"Then it should be Xu Shiying." Dou Qi came to the answer seriously. "There are many masters who help to condense the elixir, but there are very few who practice immortality. When the gang started trouble that day, Xu Shiying killed my nephew, probably just now.
It is a sign of condensation, so the immortality energy is clearly revealed."
Bai Hengqiu was slightly startled: "You said he just condensed his elixir three and a half years ago?"
"Yes." Dou Qi was a little uneasy. "Mr. Bai, is there something wrong?"
Bai Hengqiu looked ahead, his expression neither happy nor angry: "There is nothing wrong with him. After all, he is the core of the thieves. He is considered one of the most handsome men in the world. It is not surprising that he has reached the level of Grandmaster Wang Wang in just three years."
The general Zuo around him was slightly startled, and everyone was shocked.
Dou Qi came to his senses and immediately requested: "Mr. Bai, the thieves cheated and specially selected a Chengdan master to boost morale. Just let Sun Duwei come back! This will avoid being misunderstood by everyone after the defeat and losing the morale of the army."
"That's right." Sun Shunde also responded solemnly. "Mr. Bai, I'm not showing favoritism. Firstly, the thief did cheat and took a pill-forming person to go to the pill-condensing game. Secondly, how old is this guy?"
I just got married to the second mother-in-law of your family, so I won’t be able to explain it to you if it happens.”
"So what?" Bai Hengqiu sneered when he heard this. "We must have sent people to challenge. What's the difference between withdrawing and losing? If you say he is Cheng Dan, he is Cheng Dan? Cheng Dan and Ning Dan
, throughout the ages, it seems that no one has ever made a lake?"
The two generals each looked down.
"Besides, it only takes about half an hour to assemble the army. If he is slaughtered in less than half an hour and cannot escape, then my brother will despise such a person if he becomes Er Niang's son-in-law." Bai Hengqiu
He continued to speak coldly, "If you are really dead, just find another descendant of the Sun family to send to my brother."
Sun Shunde and Dou Qi looked at each other and said nothing.
After Bai Hengqiu shut up, he slowly became serious, and even breathed a little heavily - without him, even Xu Shiying, the core intelligence knowledge of the army, was somewhat misplaced, so there was no doubt that both himself and the Taiyuan Army were somewhat despised.
The strength of the army has increased.
On the other side, Sun Jia, the general of the Taiyuan Army who was appointed as the captain of the Shangdang Army, had no idea what was happening under the commander's command behind him. He was overjoyed when he saw the rebel general arriving.
"Your Excellency, is this Xu Shiying?" Sun Jia couldn't help but ask jokingly when he saw that the other party was a little silent and his body-protecting Qi was obvious. It was the longevity Qi that was not good at fighting.
Xu Dalang, who was fully clothed, seemed to be in a bad mood and just nodded on the yellow horse Zhang Xing lent him.
"My name is Sun Jia." Bai's son-in-law, who had just passed away a few months ago, greeted him proudly. "I am from the Sun family in the North."
When Xu Dalang heard the words, he just nodded again and did not take the initiative to speak, but his attention was obviously increased. It was as if he was in a battle of life and death, and he had to take it seriously no matter how reluctant he was.
"Xu Shiying, that day in Dongjun, you killed my cousin Dou Bing. Today I will avenge him!" Sun Jia's voice became louder and louder.
Xu Dalang was stunned for a moment, and seemed to have thought of relevant matters, but finally spoke: "Is it Captain Dou Bing Dou? The husband of Bai Erniang who had his hair shaved off?"
"Exactly!" Sun Jiaben was already ready to take action, but was stunned when he received the response. He could only respond. "I also want to avenge Erniang!"
"I served as a county official in Dongjun for one year. To be fair, Captain Dou is not a bad person." Xu Dalang thought thoughtfully.
"It's natural. He is a loyal official, but you are a thief who has caused trouble!" Sun Jia became more and more happy when he heard this. "Since you know how to be submissive, why not surrender as soon as possible? I will ask for your life in front of the British Lord!"
"
"Your Excellency, you have misunderstood." Xu Dalang looked at the other party and spoke seriously. "I have been a thief since I was a child, and I have killed countless people... Most of them were hangers-on in the world, and they are by no means innocent.
People, I killed most of them just to compete for power, so when I grew up, I often felt ashamed of it. As for your cousin, although he was not a bad person, I killed him, but it was the most murderous person in my life, Xu Shiying.
It was a happy time, and also the most proud one, so much so that I condensed the elixir at that time and went to the temple to practice."
Sun Jia was at a loss for a moment, but when he heard the last sentence, his heart moved and he couldn't help but secretly cheer up. He waved the Phoenix Mouth knife in his hand and laughed loudly: "Don't misunderstand me. If you don't want to surrender, you will die! Let's follow the rules.
Just fight on the ground on horseback, and whoever jumps to avoid it first will be considered the loser, can it be done or not?"
"Okay!" Xu Dalang responded and held the spear in front of him.
Sun Jia was overjoyed and immediately came over, his body-protecting Qi was exhausted, as if he was covered with another layer of blanched golden armor. The Phoenix Mouth Knife was also covered with a layer of blanched gold, and there was a faint enlargement and extension of the solidified Qi on the blade.
forming.
Obviously, this is Duanjiang Zhenqi, which is second only to Sanhui Zhenqi in the Wei army.
And Xu Dalang, who used the most immortal energy among the people, did not hesitate and stepped forward on horseback.
As soon as the two sides exchanged horses, Sun Jia became even more excited, because he clearly realized that the opponent's strength seemed to be inferior to his own, and his cultivation was in line with an ordinary master who had been concentrating for three years, plus the opponent's deceptive immortality in the battle formation If you are really angry, your chances of winning are indeed greater.
Let's say that at this time, the weather was clear and clear, and the surroundings were empty. The two generals were coming and going, imitating the ancient heroes fighting in the formation, only doing kung fu on their horses. The soldiers around and the generals in the distance were also shaking their heads, whispering to each other, trying to see more. He could hear it more accurately. But more than ten minutes later, just when these onlookers thought it was wonderful, Sun Jia, who was in the battle formation, had already noticed that the opponent was gradually losing his strength, and he became more and more excited.
"when!"
In the fifteenth round, there was another fierce exchange of weapons in the air. Both sides galloped past each other. When Captain Sun Jiasun reined in his horse and turned around, he saw that the opponent was obviously struggling to turn around and had not completed the preparations for charging. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. Hurry up and move forward, trying to take advantage of this.
Xu Shiying, who was on the opposite side, seemed to be aware of his predicament, but simply stopped turning forcefully. Instead, he waited for the opponent to get close, reined in his horse, and blocked the opponent's way with his gun.
Sun Jia secretly called the opponent a cunning voice, but without any fear, he also slowed down and stopped his horse, and at the same time waved his sword to swing the opponent's spear. This was to stop the opponent's horse and compete with each other's strength, skills, and energy.
As soon as the weapons of both sides were connected, they immediately stuck together, and both of them exerted their strength and energy, preparing to decide the outcome.
The onlookers took the opportunity to see the confrontation clearly and cheered up.
However, the situation developed next, far beyond everyone's imagination. The weapons of both sides could only connect for four or five breaths. Just after the two sides exerted their strength, Sun Jia suddenly noticed something wrong in his field of vision. There seemed to be a group of green light moving, and he gritted his teeth. When I went to look, the green light had actually reached the opponent's weapon... It turned out that it was just the opponent's immortality energy that surged out of his shoulders, whirled around in the air like an entity, and then came from the shoulders along the weapon.
I had just prepared myself to welcome the infuriating energy from the opponent's weapon. Unexpectedly, the infuriating energy spiraled along the spear, and when it came to the place where the two sides' weapons and infuriating energy dueled, it did not simply turn into the iron spear. Instead, the green light, like a living creature, raised its head, crossed the intersection of true energy, circled around its own weapons, and came towards itself.
Moreover, as the infuriating energy got closer and closer, it also became faster and faster. Then, it hovered slightly above the weapon between the two people, and suddenly turned into a giant green python, with full teeth and ferocious head and horns, and then headed straight towards Open your big green mouth.
This scene was so strange that Captain Sun was shocked for a moment and quickly put away his weapons and tried to escape.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he relieved himself of his strength, the giant python suddenly jumped up and pounced on the ground like it was hunting for prey, and then quickly climbed up his arm.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Sun Jia felt that the zhenqi was like a real living giant python. It didn't actually penetrate into his body-protecting zhenqi. Instead, it circled around the outside and strangled him in an instant.
Just like an ordinary person being coiled by a giant python.
Not to mention, Sun Jia tried to escape when the giant python got on his body, but unexpectedly, the zhenqi circled around his arms and suddenly opened his mouth like a real python or dragon, and pressed hard on his right shoulder. In an instant, he felt
The right shoulder feels so heavy that it is difficult to exert full strength.
But Xu Shiying was not in a hurry or slow down throughout the whole process, he just didn't show mercy when he got the upper hand. He would press on the opponent when he was relieved of his strength. If the opponent fled, he would release the giant green python to wrap it up and bite him. What's even more frightening is that after the sneak attack was successful, for a moment,
Then another giant python with thick arms sprang out from the rich immortality energy in his waist and circled towards the opponent's waist.
Then, there are the third, fourth, and fifth items.
Sun Jia had already been completely panicked. He didn't know that he had fallen into the opponent's plan, so he started yelling early. The soldiers on both sides also realized that the battle situation had changed, and they all started uproar.
It should be noted that these zhenqi patterns were very popular in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the Trinity Orthodox Church had not yet unified the world, and many sects still existed. They liked to name, classify, and establish moves for the zhenqi patterns, and there were many battlefield rules and more literary practices.
Duo. However, since Tang Nandu, the world has been in melee for hundreds of years, and everyone has gradually come to understand that the rules, tricks, and moves are just the combination of true energy and the human body, and there is no special effect just because of the moves you perform.
, so gradually no one pays attention to these anymore, and pays more attention to reality, which is just to mix the true energy with one knife after another, one armor upon another.
Therefore, when everyone saw this scene, they only felt confused. Some people who were not knowledgeable even thought that Xu Shiying was already a master, but the real masters knew that this was just Xu Shiying's mastery of the true energy in an astonishingly subtle way.
-The distance that should exist within the realm of Cheng Dan is just a matter of completing the exquisite and powerful control of the true energy.
Of course, there is no room for redundant thinking on the battlefield.
In fact, Xu Shiying used a flaw and suddenly released the zhenqi that was like a living creature. In just a blink of an eye, he had already restrained the opponent. Then, multiple zhenqi giant pythons appeared on the plate, wrapping the opponent like a net.
During the process, Sun Jia had lost the ability to resist.
Immediately, after the onlookers on both sides realized what had happened, Xu Shiying did not hesitate, shot away the opponent's long knife, and then stabbed the opponent's ribs. With a wailing sound, he did not hesitate to use the rope to pull the opponent's sword away.
Follow the other party towards the army camp.
Seeing this situation, the sergeants on both sides shouted in unison, and the two Taiyuan frontline generals immediately rode out with their true energy blooming, as if they wanted to snatch back the Bai family's son-in-law. However, at this moment, the high platform of the military camp opposite
Suddenly, an arrow flew over, wrapped in Duanjiang's true energy, and shot straight towards one of them like a golden spear.
The man was frightened for a moment, and immediately jumped up on his horse and flew back.
The war horse was still moving forward, but was hit in the waist by the giant Zhenqi arrow with a thick arm. The war horse let out a wail, and a large hole was pierced through its abdomen on the spot. Blood splattered in its internal organs, and it could no longer get up.
Not to mention this, one arrow fell and another flew forward, hitting the Taiyuan Army general who was still in the air.
The two sides collided, and the general was knocked to the ground, wailing repeatedly, and could not get up again... The surrounding sergeants were shocked.
However, the middle and upper echelons of the Taiyuan Army are Guan Long, a descendant of the Jin Dynasty. His basic military quality is excellent. On one side, a group of sergeants dragged the injured general into the formation, and on the other side, there were large shields stacked forward... What's more, , the other general in front not only did not retreat, but turned around and shouted, ordering the troops to move forward, charge together, and take advantage of the situation to enter the camp.
But at this moment, the sound of ringing gold came from a few hundred steps behind, and then with the army's third arrow shot, the Taiyuan army retreated like a tide.
"Is it Xu Shiren who shoots arrows?" Dou Qi asked in confusion amid the sound of gold. Obviously, after experiencing Xu Shiying's performance, he was obviously a little unconfident.
"It should be." Sun Shunde also felt guilty.
"It's not Xu Shiren." Bai Hengqiu answered coldly. "Xu Shiren's strength is stronger than this person's, but his accuracy is slightly worse."
"It's Wang Shuyong." Dou Qi thought for a moment and answered.
"It must be so." Bai Hengqiu squinted his eyes slightly and looked right. "It's true that the gang really has hidden dragons and crouching tigers."
Dou Qi, on the other hand, calmed down and took it seriously: "It's not that we are strong or not, but that we misjudged and thought they were not that strong... so we suffered a loss, and I'm afraid we will suffer more in the future. "
Bai Hengqiu nodded seriously, and responded with confidence: "It is precisely because of this that we must defeat him at all costs! Even if we suffer some losses, we must defeat him! Otherwise, the future may not be easy to decide! "
The surrounding generals almost nodded together.
Bai Hengqiu simply stood up and gave stern instructions: "The formation will last only a quarter of an hour. You all should go down separately. General Liu has already led the rear army to the flanks. General Sun will now go to the front army to take charge of the first three battalions. General Dou will stay." Here, I will take charge of my formation. Once there is a battle, I will observe the enemy's formation. If a large formation cannot be raised, I will supervise the whole army to attack. If a large formation rises, General Dou will be the base of the formation and I will be the eye of the formation. I will move forward personally. , put an end to this war and avoid future troubles!"
All the generals responded solemnly, and then returned to their positions according to the arrangements.
As soon as everyone left, a messenger hurriedly arrived: "Report to the Duke, the envoy sent by Duke Huaitong has arrived."
"Let him go back to camp. The war is about to start. I don't have time to see him." Bai Hengqiu blurted out.
Then, he instinctively looked towards the river in the northeast direction. Sure enough, after a moment, a servant with clear surroundings arrived: "Greetings to my lord, General Qutu asked to see you."
Bai Hengqiu frowned slightly and wanted to refuse, but in the end he nodded: "Let him come over quickly."
On the other side, in the center of the Plum Blossom Petal Camp, on the general platform that was hastily photographed with infuriating energy, Zhang Xing also issued the final order, and the few generals who stayed here also returned to their respective positions... The huge On the general stage, only Xiong Bonan, Cui Suchen, Wang Xiongdan, and a few guards were left, preparing to general.
Maybe it was because the last half-quarter of an hour was a bit difficult. After the people left, Xiong Bonan couldn't help but point to the head in front of him and ask: "I don't even know Xu Dalang's cultivation level, why does the chief know?"
Zhang Xing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled and answered: "Guessed!"
On the other side, Bai Hengqiu also changed his color slightly: "Fulong Seal? Are you sure?"
"It's a guess." Qu Tuda answered seriously. "It's just a guess. I played against Wu Jingfeng the day before yesterday, and it suddenly occurred to me... Wu Jingfeng did not come directly from Henan, but appeared with Taoist Chong He.
...The Gang is so calm, so it must have something to rely on. I think that in addition to its own outstanding strength and preparation for formation, it must also have a back-up plan to target the Grand Master."
"How can such a coincidence happen?" Bai Hengqiu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, and slowly drew his sword and pointed forward. "Besides, the situation at this time is like an arrow on the string, and I have to shoot!"
Qu Tuda turned to look and saw that the 30,000 Taiyuan elite of the Tenth Battalion had been well arranged, with numerous flags and dazzling armor, which was in sharp contrast to the almost silent gray gang camp.
He couldn't help but sigh.
And at this time, the slightly dull words of the British Duke Bai Hengqiu came to my ears:
"Send the order and let the war begin!"
The next moment, as the military orders were conveyed from level to level, the 30,000-strong army suddenly stirred up, like turbulent waves, rolling around the fields and bringing up countless storms, clouds and dust.
"Let's get started! You have to give it a try first and say hello!"
After noticing the movement of the Taiyuan Army on the opposite side, Zhang Xing glanced at Xiong Bonan, said only one sentence, then took off the scabbard-shocked Dragon Sword from behind, opened up the layers of wrapping, and then rolled the Zhenqi general.
The sword plunged hard into the ground.
At the same time, countless gray-white zhenqi escaped from the side of the gang leader, so that the entire surrounding general platform instantly became cold, and even frost flowers faintly appeared and mist formed.
Obviously, this effect was not caused by the infuriating energy in the air, but that Zhang Xing poured almost all his infuriating energy into the ground along the unsheathed sword, and then spread along the ground.
Seeing this shape, under the stage, Wang Xiongdan and others who had received the military order also used their true energy. Looking from a distance, it seemed as if a lamp was lit, and colorful lights instantly lit up. However, the lights only lit up for a moment.
, then disappeared immediately, replaced by a gray-white uniform light spot.
Not only that, once the light spot changes color, the frozen ground will instantly spread to the surrounding area.
In this way, first around the general platform, then at various tents in the Chinese military camp, then at specific sentry posts on the periphery, and then along specific routes, the frozen phenomenon spread all the way, and the light spots changed colors all the way.
It was clearly afternoon, but just like the countless lights lit up in Wenroufang at night, they formed a continuous page and formed a scene of their own. It also seemed like someone was using real energy to paint, trying to draw a huge plum blossom on the ground along the camp.
But soon, the process of light spots changing color was interrupted on the road leading from the Chinese army camp to several surrounding camps.
Zhang Xing was silent for a while, and then prepared to move in several directions and concentrate on connecting several camps to the south and west. But at this moment, Xiong Bonan suddenly stood up and put the red-bottomed "
The flag with the word "Deposed" was held in his hand, and then the purple air filled the air. With just one effort, it suddenly turned into a gray background. Then taking this opportunity, the underground zhenqi veins suddenly flashed, like the underground fine lines affected by the tide.
It was like a stream, rising abruptly in all directions.
Seeing this shape, Cui Suchen and other cultivators on the general stage did not hesitate, and just dodged and filled themselves into the formation.
A moment later, this underground tide surged to the center of the camp on the surrounding petals almost simultaneously, and instantly connected with the centers of several generals' camps. Then, in all directions, the entire camp, as if it were one, suddenly bloomed.
The soldiers at the front were already engaged in battle. Bai Hengqiu looked at this scene from a distance, his face ashen.
At the same time, Zhang Xing, who had successfully formed the formation, was also livid, because it was not easy for him to support this large formation, and once the formation was completed, his perception increased more than tenfold, and the "grand master" in the distance "
"Weight" he also noticed.
Later, it is really hard to decide whether I can be a target of this person.
Just when the formation had just been formed, and the coaches of both sides were facing each other at a distance that they could not see at all, but could clearly feel with their true energy, suddenly, there was a huge rumble in the sky due to the north, as if
a bolt from the blue.
It was a real thunderbolt from the blue. The sound was so loud that everyone heard it with their own ears, but looking around, it was completely empty to the north.
And the clouds over Bangying Village can't cover the afternoon sun at all, so how can there be thunderbolts?
If such a strange thing was normal, I don't know how many people would speculate and discuss it, but at this time, in this place, it just made everyone stunned for a few breaths.
In fact, this strange sound was like a unified military horn order. A moment later, the Taiyuan Army formed a dense military formation with more than twice the strength. Under the leadership of countless generals and experts from Guanlong and Jindi,
Attack the stronghold in a big way!
Bai Hengqiu did not hesitate, and an unimaginably huge glow of true energy bloomed on the platform. His true energy was the three colors of gold, silver and red intermingled, rising out of thin air, but standing horizontally and vertically.
Flying in the air.
In a moment, a huge thing that looked like a chessboard or a net appeared in the sky above the Taiyuan Army, and quickly connected with the generals and officers below who were blooming with true energy.
As soon as they were connected, the situation was the same as on the opposite side. The chessboard or net rose in the wind and continued to spread in the air.
By this time, the two sides had just fought, but the sky that had been calm all morning had disappeared and was replaced by frost, wind and clouds, and the scorching sun and thunderbolts.
