Li Chengdao rode a horse and stopped in front of a valley.
The terrain of this valley is strange, surrounded by mountains outside, and can only be entered by a narrow valley road.
"right here."
Li Chengdao rode his horse forward and entered the narrow valley road.
The road is very narrow and can only allow one person and one horse to pass.
The spring breeze blows to the grassland, the grass outside the valley is green, and the grass and trees on both sides of the valley road also grow green leaves.
After walking for more than a hundred meters along the narrow valley road, the light suddenly lit up in front of us. In front of us was a lush grassland. There was grassland for more than 50 miles in radius, and cattle and sheep grazed leisurely on the grassland.
This place is like a paradise.
Li Chengdao walked slowly inside, dismounted his horse, stopped, lowered his head and ate grass.
Looking around, Li Chengdao said loudly: "I am the envoy of the Holy Son, and I come to you on the orders of the Holy Son!"
There was someone lurking in the dark in the valley, monitoring Li Chengdao's every move.
Li Chengdao had already noticed the existence of these people, so he shouted loudly.
After finishing speaking, there was no response.
Li Chengdao got off his horse and slowly walked to the middle of the grassland.
At this time, three people suddenly appeared at the entrance of the valley, and people dressed as barbarians also appeared in the surrounding mountains.
Li Chengdao didn't care at all. The cultivation level of these people was no more than that of Emperor Wu, and he could kill them easily.
"You are the messenger of the Holy Son. Where is the token?"
A woman in her 40s came over, stretched out a long and thick hand, and asked Li Chengdao for a token.
Li Chengdao glanced at her and saw that this woman was tall and thick, and her appearance was rough. Only her eyes revealed shrewdness.
"No token."
Li Chengdao said coldly, there were more than a hundred people visible around him, and there should be some hidden in the dark.
"No token? Then you are a spy."
The woman smiled coldly, and suddenly a poison dart flew out of her sleeve and went straight to Li Chengdao's throat.
Li Chengdao raised his hand and easily caught the poison dart between his fingers.
The poison dart was launched by Jinnu. It was very fast and powerful, but Li Chengdao easily caught it with his fingers. The woman was startled and immediately took a few steps back. The people on the mountain and around immediately used hidden weapons, and pointed the crossbow at Li Chengdao.
volley.
< br> A wave of arrows roared towards him, Li Chengdao smiled disdainfully, and protected his whole body with a black turtle shield, blocking all incoming hidden weapons.
"If I don't kill a few of you, you won't believe me."
Li Chengdao smiled slightly, and in a flash, the woman's head was cut off, and the heads of several people standing around him fell to the ground at the same time.
"Do you believe it now?"
Li Chengdao's voice was low and could be heard clearly by the people around him.
Looking at the heads on the ground, everyone around was shocked.
The empress who took action just now has a cultivation level that has almost exceeded that of an emperor, and she is the most powerful here.
Such a person has no power to fight back.
"Who are you?"
A man next to him was so frightened that his expression suddenly changed and he couldn't help but retreat.
Li Chengdao said loudly: "I am the messenger of the Holy Son. I order you to follow me out of the mountain and prepare to coordinate the actions of the Holy Son and the Queen."
Everyone didn't know the truth or falsehood, but they didn't dare to disobey, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
"It's easy for me to kill you, there's no need to lie to you."
"There are many of you, so I'll just put in more effort."
"I don't have much time. If you are willing to stand up, I will kill those who are unwilling one by one."
Li Chengdao didn't bother to prove his identity to them, so he left if he wanted to, and killed if he didn't.
After experiencing the pain of national subjugation, Li Chengdao increasingly believed that the strong could do whatever they wanted, and the weak should bear everything.
People in the valley slowly came out, and there were more than 500 people in total.
"Everyone stand up and form an array."
Li Chengdao scolded him coldly, and everyone stood together honestly and lined up.
"You will be the person in charge and lead everyone to this location."
Li Chengdao randomly clicked on someone and gave him a picture with the location of the Crystal Palace marked on it.
"Excuse me, where is this?"
The man wanted to know more, and Li Chengdao said coldly: "The contact point of the Holy Son, gather there and wait for the Holy Son's order."
After saying that, Li Chengdao rode from the valley
The road leaves.
After the person left, everyone gathered around and talked among themselves:
"Who is this man? Do we believe him?"
"It's not about whether we believe it or not, it's about whether we dare to believe it or not?"
"What if he is a spy? What if he deliberately lured us there?"
"His cultivation level is very high. He feels similar to the Holy Son. It would be too easy to kill us. There is no need to lie to us."
Everyone's final opinion was that Li Chengdao was very strong, much stronger than them.
Because he is strong enough, there is no need to deceive. .??.
You cheat because the other party is stronger than you, or evenly matched. If you are strong enough, you don't need to cheat.
"Then let's go?"
The man said: "Let's go, we can't delay our journey."
More than five hundred people immediately picked up their belongings and headed to the Crystal Palace.
.
Da Zhou Military Camp.
When it got dark, the army stopped and set up camp. Each army was in a different camp, with soldiers on patrol outside.
The three guard eagles quietly sneaked to the outskirts of the military camp. A group of patrolling soldiers came over on horseback. The three men immediately knelt on the ground and waited for the patrolling cavalry to pass by.
"General, should we investigate separately, or together?"
Deputy Zhu Zhen asked Wei Ying what he meant, and Wei Ying said: "Let's go together and support each other."
The three of them slowly stood up and quickly entered the military camp under the cover of night.
The opening where Wei Ying entered was the Long Family Army's camp.
After observation, Wei Ying found that the Demon Dragon Camp was in the middle, and the Long Family Army, Nanliang Army, Beida Camp and the Barbarian Army were divided into four directions.
Among the armies in the four directions, the Long family army has the strictest military discipline and the most elite.
Because of this, Wei Ying deliberately chose the Long Family Army as a breakthrough point to sneak in.
He was deliberately mocking that even the most elite Long family army could come and go as he pleased.
The three of them entered the Long Family Army. The soldiers were resting in the tent, and patrolling soldiers were walking around outside.
Wei Ying shuttled between the tents and reached the camp in the middle. Inside was the Three Thousand Demonic Dragon Camp.
Approaching the Demon Dragon Camp, Wei Ying felt the familiar feeling breath.
Lieutenant General Yang Hu walked out of a tent. Wei Ying immediately hid his traces and stared at the tent in the middle.
Obviously, Yu Wenkai lives there.
After counting the number of tents, Yu Wenkai waited for Tan Wenyue to come out of the tent, and then slowly exited.
When they arrived at the outskirts, Wei Ying said: "Now separate, each to inquire about the situation of other military camps, and meet in the north."
Zhu Zhen and Li Man immediately dispersed and each inquired about the situation.
Wei Ying quietly lurked outside Long Chen's tent and quietly observed the situation inside the tent.
"After withdrawing to Yanmen Pass, we will recruit troops again. The ghost tribe has more troops than we imagined."
"The ghost soldiers are too powerful. Even if we have more soldiers, we may not be our opponents."
"It is better to retreat to Nanliang as General Yuwen said. The weather there is hot and it is beneficial to us."
The guard eagle pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the conversation in the tent.
In addition to his amazing eyesight, Wei Ying also has amazing hearing. He can hear whispers even from dozens of meters away.
He could clearly hear Long Chen's conversation in the tent.
"I think it's feasible. The main force will be withdrawn to Nanliang and abandon Xixia and Dazhou."
Long Chen's voice came from the tent, and Wei Ying listened carefully.
"But if the people know about it, there will be chaos in the world."
Gan Xin's voice came, and Mo Lin said: "I am also worried about this. The people of Zhou and Xixia will definitely migrate."
Long Chen said: "I have discussed this matter with the Holy One. We kept it from the people and only said that there was a rebellion in Nanliang. Our army went to Nanliang to put down the rebellion."
Gan Xin said: "This is a feasible method. When we return to Yanmen Pass, we will immediately withdraw all our elite troops."
Long Chen said helplessly: "I originally wanted to scare the ghost clan when I entered the ice, but in the end I found that the ghost clan was too powerful. I'm ashamed."
Mo Lin said: "My lord, don't be discouraged. Back then, the ancestors of the Long family also lost first and then won. You, sir, will definitely be able to defeat first and then win."
Wei Ying listened to the conversation and sneered in his heart. Long Yuan's cultivation had improved back then, and with the discovery of the sacred tree and the demon-suppressing stone, he slowly turned the tide of the war.
How could Long Chen win with such a poor cultivation level?
