Long Chen said lightly, looking at Yingfeng's gray face, he didn't want to talk anymore.
The empress waved her hand and everyone exited the room, leaving Long Chen inside.
The Empress and Miaoyin also went out.
When they got outside, Miaoyin said worriedly: "Long Chen is a person who values friendship too much. I'm worried that he blames himself too much."
The empress sighed helplessly: "These are his strengths and weaknesses. I also know that he can only come out on his own."
"There are still a lot of things to do, I need to cheer up first."
After saying that, the empress strode towards the military camp.
...
Li Chengdao returned to the original place with more than 80 personal guards, and worshiped the ghost fetus: "Holy Son, I didn't find anyone else, only this many."
Guitai looked at the more than eighty ghost warriors in front of him, stood up slowly, and asked: "Where is Gao Qinhu?"
Gui Fei was waiting for Li Chengdao to find other soldiers, and he was also waiting for Gao Qinhu to return.
But there was no trace of Gao Qinhu, and Gui Ti was disappointed.
Li Chengdao shook his head slightly and said, "I haven't seen General Gao."
The ghost was very angry and cursed: "Trash, they are all trash!"
The personal guards under him were loyal to Gao Qinhu, but after this defeat, they did not dare to say anything.
If Gao Qinhu hadn't lost to Long Chen, Gui Tai and Li Chengdao could have killed the empress together.
The empress is killed, Gao Qinhu suppresses Long Chen, breaks Yanmen Pass, and destroys the Long family army easily.
Therefore, the key to defeat this time is to capture the tiger high.
"Go back!"
The ghost tire slowly walked towards the snow-capped mountains, and Li Chengdao led the guards to follow him.
...
South of Yanmen Pass, barbarian camp.
Tuzhi was comforting the families of those who died in the battle, while recruiting troops again and redistributing weapons to the soldiers.
After this fierce battle, many barbarian generals and leaders requested to withdraw from the battle and were unwilling to participate in the war.
The fear spread from the soldiers to the entire tribe, and the barbarians were unwilling to become warriors.
In the past, barbarians respected force, and becoming a warrior was an honor.
But now, the barbarians are unwilling to join the war until death.
Tu Zhi sat in the tent, sighed slightly, and said to the general below: "You are afraid, I understand, this battle is very cruel."
"But you have also seen that if we retreat and do not join the war, what will we do? Tell me, what should we, the wolf tribe, do?"
"The grassland has been occupied by the ghost tribe. Hundreds of thousands of our tribe members died today."
"The Zhou people can abandon Yanmen Pass and choose to retreat south, but what about us? Where should we retreat?"
This is a very practical problem. The barbarians’ homeland is the grassland, and they bear the brunt of it.
The generals and leaders below did not speak, they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
"Okay, let's all go back and rest. This battle was too brutal. Let's wait until we get some rest."
Tuzhi can only hope that these people can recover after resting and regroup as an army to fight.
If you lose your courage because of this battle, then the barbarians are hopeless.
Everyone slowly stood up and exited the tent, while Bath remained inside.
"Is King Wu back?"
Tu Zhi asked Basi.
When the barbarians came back, Long Chen was still chasing the ghost tribe, and Tuzhi was worried that Long Chen would not be able to come back.
The ghost clan is so powerful, it would be too dangerous for Long Chen to pursue them alone.
If something happens to Long Chen, it will really be over.
It can be seen from today's battle that the empress and ghost fetus are equally matched, and only Long Chen can suppress everyone.
Basi replied: "I just came back. Because Yingfeng was killed in battle, and the Long family army general Ye Chang was also killed in battle, King Wu was very shocked and in a very low mood."
After hearing this, Tuzhi let out a long sigh and said, "Is even King Wu depressed? What should I do?"
Basi sighed: "This battle was too brutal. It's not the problem of dead people, but the fact that the ghosts are too terrifying and everyone is afraid."
Tu Zhi nodded slightly and said, "It's okay. The ghost clan has just appeared, so everyone is afraid. After fighting a few more battles, you will get used to it and won't be afraid anymore."
Basi nodded and said, "I hope so."
...
Yanmen Pass.
Ji Zhang was walking in the military camp, looking at the wounded everywhere and the neatly arranged coffins, and he had already made a decision in his heart.
He originally wanted to cooperate with Long Chen and seek his own benefits.
But judging from today's battle, Long Chen is definitely no match for the ghost clan.
A Gao Jinghu was able to contain Long Chen, Guitai and Li Chengdao were able to break through Yanmen Pass, and the empress was almost killed.
If the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl wake up, Long Chen and the Empress will undoubtedly die.
The answer is obvious as to whom to side with.
Looking at Long Chen's room from a distance, Ji Zhang's eyes moved slightly, then turned around and left Yanmen Pass.
When they arrived at a nearby town, Ji Zhang entered a courtyard, where an old servant came out.
"The leader."
"Bring me pen and ink."
The old servant immediately brought a pen and ink. Ji Zhang wrote a letter and sealed it with clay. Ji Zhang handed it to the old servant and said, "Send it to Jinling City immediately, just give it to Hong Qi."
The old servant took the order and left the town overnight, heading for Jinling.
After the letter was sent, Ji Zhang put on a thick cloak and immediately left the yard.
It was very windy at night and I couldn't see my fingers.
Ji Zhang's night vision is not bad either, so traveling in the dark is not a problem.
Moreover, the night can give him cover.
Soon, Ji Zhang arrived at Yanmen Pass.
After taking a look at the campfire, Ji Zhang quietly climbed over Yanmen Pass from the side and headed towards the snowy field to the north.
When Ji Zhang left, a shadow immediately walked towards Long Chen's room.
Arriving at the door, Shadow knocked lightly on the door.
Dong dong dong...
The knock on the door was very soft, but there was no response from inside.
"Sir, I have something important to report."
This shadow is none other than Feng He.
"Come in."
Feng He immediately opened the door and went in. Long Chen was sitting at the table, with a dim oil lamp illuminating the surrounding area.
"Sir, Ji Zhang went north and passed Yanmen Pass just now."
Feng He's voice was deep and rapid.
Ji Zhang's whereabouts were strange. After he arrived at Yanmen Pass, Feng He kept staring at him.
The sky was full of wind and snow in the north, and Feng He couldn't get out, so Ji Zhang became the focus of his surveillance.
"oh.."
Long Chen responded lightly, then smiled coldly: "In the end, I surrendered to the ghost clan."
Feng He said: "Do you want to pursue me?"
Long Chen shook his head slightly and said: "The emperor is just a cultivator. You can crush him to death with your backhand, so don't pay attention to him."
"His son and his men are still over there in Nanliang. Go and keep an eye on them. I will kill them with my own hands."
Feng He bowed and immediately went out to do business.
Leaning on the chair, Long Chen looked at the dim yellow light, the cold wind howling outside, and the whining wind seemed to be crying.
"The utmost benevolence and righteousness have been exhausted."
Long Chen said lightly.
Long Chen had said it first. If Ji Zhang took refuge with the ghost clan, Long Chen would not stay behind.
Ji Zhang went to the northern border by himself, and he was going to kill him next time they met. Ji Xianxian had nothing to say.
"Cheer up!"
Long Chen wiped his face and tried to cheer himself up.
Yingfeng was a confidante, and Ye Chang was a general who was led by one hand. The death of these two men in battle had a huge psychological impact on Long Chen.
But he knew he had to cheer up and turn his grief into strength.
Let the ghost clan repay it ten times, a hundred times, and thousands of times!
"New plans must be made!"
Long Chen took out a piece of paper and began to formulate a new battle plan.
