Feng Yang and Han Hu calmed down the excited and anxious Dragon Slayer Army, while Ma Chenglong walked westward to meet up with the Martial Saint behind him.
After walking for a day, Ma Chenglong finally saw Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl's sleigh.
The dignified Martial Saint and the Queen of the Ghost Clan rode on a very crude and shabby sled. The ninety thousand ghost soldiers behind them were dressed in animal skins of various styles, and their weapons were made of fish bones. It was a chaotic mess.
Those who didn't know Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl would think they were a ragtag group of primitive tribes.
Ma Chenglong stood respectfully beside him, waiting for Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl to come forward.
"This servant pays homage to the king, Your Majesty."
Ma Chenglong imitated Li Chengdao to kneel down and salute, which was what Li Chengdao taught them. .??.
Li Chengdao asked them to bow and kneel to the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl to show their loyalty.
This is a strategy, a strategy to gain the trust of the Martial Saint.
"Why are you here? Where is Li Chengdao?"
Wu Sheng asked unhappily when he saw Ma Chenglong appear here.
Ma Chenglong was kneeling on the ground, his knees and legs buried in the snow. He looked very short.
"If you return to the king, General Li will be waiting at the front."
Wu Sheng said coldly: "Wait? He is a pioneer officer. If he doesn't move forward at full speed, what are he waiting for?"
Ma Chenglong replied: "The soldiers are too tired to march, and they are getting closer and closer to Yanmen Pass. General Li does not dare to march without authorization. He wants to wait for the king to arrive and march together."
Wu Sheng didn't say anything else. He couldn't let Li Chengdao lead 30,000 Dragon Slayers to attack Yanmen Pass.
Moreover, the dragon-slayer army is tired from walking, and the ghost soldiers are even more tired from walking.
The team of ghost soldiers behind them was chaotic and listless, and complaints could be heard in front.
"Husband, our people are also tired. After meeting Li Chengdao at the front, let's take a rest."
The ghost girl looked at the ghost soldiers behind her and wanted everyone to take a rest before moving forward.
Wu Sheng nodded slightly and said: "Okay."
The demon was listening beside her. She had long wanted to suggest taking a rest, but she didn't dare to speak.
Li Chengdao was waiting in front, and he happened to take advantage of the opportunity The machine stopped to rest.
The ghost army continued to advance, and Ma Chenglong ran to the front to lead the way.
.
Yanmen Pass.
In the meeting hall, the empress sat at the head, with Long Chen first on the left. Next to him were Wu Jian, Gan Zhen, Han Ziping and Tang Heizi, the generals of the Long family army, as well as Qiu Kuohai, Hu Feiyang and others.
Opposite are Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi, Zhang Qian, Wu Chuchu, Dugu Jiali, Wu Chuchu, Bai Tingting, Qingyue, Xuan Yi, Zhang Man and Mei Yu, Hu Qiaotong, Yue Sisi, Zhuang Ling'er, Zhang Man and other generals.
The barbarian Chanyu Tuzhi had a special status and was sitting behind Long Chen.
Yu Fuguo, Hong Xiao and others were also present, and they sat down at the back.
Ziyun and Miaoyin did not sit down, they stood in the corner and watched quietly.
The other generals sat down at the back. There were almost two hundred people in the room, which seemed a bit crowded.
The generals of the army, including the captain, were all in the meeting hall.
Seeing that everyone was here, Long Chen said: "Your Majesty, everyone is here."
The empress nodded slightly and said loudly: "Generals, I have summoned you here to discuss matters for one thing only, which is the decisive battle in a few days."
"I have received news that Li Chengdao leads 30,000 ghost soldiers as the vanguard, which is three days' journey away; Wu Sheng leads one hundred thousand ghost soldiers, which is four days' journey away."
"If they don't rest, they will arrive outside the pass in four days, and the decisive battle with the ghost tribe will be in four days."
The empress informed the ghost clan of their movements. The room was quiet, no one spoke, and there was no sign of commotion. Everyone listened quietly.
The ghost tribe is coming, and this is a decisive battle. Everyone knows it, so no one is surprised or agitated.
"In this battle, there were a lot of ghosts, 140,000, and hundreds of thousands of puppets accompanying them, totaling almost 300,000."
"The military strength is similar to ours at Yanmenguan. This
This battle will definitely be difficult and brutal."
The empress first gave a warning to all the soldiers so that they would not be frightened during the battle.
On the battlefield, sometimes honesty is the best encouragement.
The room was still very quiet, with no surprise or restlessness.
"I don't need to elaborate on how important this battle is. All the generals know it."
"If we win this war, the ghost clan can be completely defeated, and the time has come for a counterattack."
"If we fail and Yanmen Pass falls, the ghost tribe will march straight into the Central Plains and our family will become food for the ghost tribe."
The empress continued.
Everyone knows these things very well.
Yanmenguan has been confronting the ghost tribe for a long time. At first, everyone felt unknown and fearful of the ghost tribe, but now everyone is used to it. The ghost tribe is just more powerful. There is nothing to be afraid of. The ghost tribe can also be killed.
"The ghost clan is out in force this time, and there are a lot of them, but there's no need to be afraid."
"All generals know that a few months ago, Wu Sheng led a sneak attack on Yuncheng with his ghost soldiers. King Wu and I fought in Yuncheng."
"In that battle, King Wu seriously injured Wu Sheng and also took away Wu Sheng's weapon Black Moon. Now Wu Sheng has nothing to fear."
The soldiers at Yanmen Pass had heard about the Battle of Yuncheng, and this time the empress told them, making the generals more convinced of the rumors.
Everyone in the room looked at Long Chen. All the generals admired Long Chen, whether it was martial arts or other things.
"There is even better news. I have refinished the Phoenix Wing Boring weapon left by Taizu. This is a weapon that can suppress ghost girls four hundred years ago."
"Also, King Wu has obtained the Holy Sword of the Ghost Clan. He could not fully control it before. Now that King Wu's cultivation has greatly increased, he can fully control the Holy Sword of the Ghost Clan."
"In other words, King Wu and I have two magical weapons in our hands. I am sure to win this battle!"
The empress's words were sonorous, powerful and full of confidence, and all the generals present were excited after hearing them.
"King Wu, please tell me." After the empress finished speaking, she turned to look at Long Chen.
As the head coach, Long Chen must say a few words.
"Brothers, we have been fighting the ghost tribe for several years. We have made heavy sacrifices and many brothers have died in battle."
"We must win this battle, and we will definitely win!"
"I promise, this is the last winter decisive battle. After this victory, I will lead you to attack the ghost clan's lair and completely wipe out the ghost clan."
"Then we can go home and live a stable and prosperous life."
"Just now, the Holy One said that I can control the Holy Sword of the Ghost Clan. The Holy One has re-refined the Phoenix Wing Boring. Maybe brothers don't know what it means."
"Let me explain. Four hundred years ago, those heroes had their own famous weapons. The first one was the ghost girl's holy sword, the second one was the dragon sword of my ancestor of the Long family, and the third one was the martial arts weapon.
The Holy Black Moon, ranked fourth is the Phoenix Wing Boring of Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"The ghost girl's holy sword is in my hand, the ancestor's dragon sword is broken, half of the martial saint's black moon is snatched away by me, and the phoenix wings are in the saint's hand."
"So, now the best and most powerful weapons are in our hands."
After Long Chen finished speaking, a burst of exclamations erupted in the room.
They are all generals, and they have heard some news and know that the Holy Sword and Phoenix Wing Boring are powerful.
However, they don’t know where and how powerful it is.
After Long Chen explained, they realized how awesome he was!
"No wonder the Holy One is so convinced that the two most powerful weapons are in our hands."
"King Wu is so powerful that he was able to snatch the ghost girl's holy sword."
"I heard that several years ago, King Wu seized the Holy Sword from Gui Fei."
"Great, after this battle is over, we can all go home."
Master Ziyun and Master Miaoyin stood in the corner, listening quietly to Long Chen's words.
