Long Chen smiled helplessly, Miaoyin kicked her feet, and cursed softly: "I hate it!"
The empress said with a headache: "Li Chengdao suffered a big loss and lost the Xuanwu sword, but the spirit snake and black turtle were almost unscathed. There are ghost soldiers guarding the top of the mountain. It is difficult to rush up."
"Storm Canyon is insurmountable. The army is blocked outside and cannot advance an inch."
"It's a long journey from Yuncheng to here. It costs countless money and food every day. If it takes too long, it will be too much."
War is all about logistics. If it lasts for a long time, the Central Plains will be dragged down.
The ghosts can go without food for ten days and a half, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers cannot. They must eat enough food every day. It is cold here and the food consumption is even greater.
A protracted war is not a wise choice, a quick victory is the best.
Long Chen said: "I'm still thinking."
After drinking two cups of tea, Long Chen stood up and left. Miaoyin chuckled behind him and said, "Just leaving? Don't you want to spend the night here?"
Long Chen ignored it and went straight back to his tent. Yuying stood there awkwardly.
"Don't look, the holy sword is on me, you can't find it."
Yuying's expression looked wrong. She was obviously looking for something in the tent, although it didn't look like anything had been moved.
Yuying's face suddenly changed, and he opened his mouth, wanting to argue something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Long Chen's attitude just now was very bad. I don't know what Long Chen will say when he comes back. Yu Ying wants to leave a way out for himself.
The ghost clan's holy sword is in Long Chen's hands. If he can find the holy sword and bring it back to Li Chengdao, he can turn around.
She was a little clever. From the beginning, she wanted to dedicate it to Li Chengdao instead of dedicating it to Yue Lang.
"How many of you ghosts don't want to fight anymore?"
Long Chen spoke, and Yu Ying immediately answered: "Many, Yuecheng was attacked, and we experienced a huge defeat. In fact, most of the clan members don't want to fight anymore. It was Yuelang who forced us to do it."
"Even Yuelang doesn't want to fight. He just wants to keep the throne and plans to lead his tribe to evacuate to the Sea of Darkness."
Long Chen asked again: "Are you sure you can convince them? ?”
Yu Ying replied truthfully: "As long as King Wu can kill Li Chengdao, Yue Lang will lose his backer and I will be sure to control the Holy Clan."
Long Chen nodded and said: "To tell you the truth, you should be aware of the grudges between this king and Li Chengdao."
Yuying nodded and said: "I have heard that King Wu and Li Chengdao will fight until death."
She had only heard a few words about these things. The only thing that was certain was that Long Chen and Li Chengdao had a blood feud and one of them had to die before they could stop.
Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, my king's purpose is to kill Li Chengdao, and it has nothing to do with your ghost clan."
"I have a grudge against the ghost fetus. The ghost fetus is dead. My ancestor has a grudge against the martial saint. The martial saint is dead. The ghost girl is also dead. I have nothing to do with your ghost clan anymore."
"If Yuelang hadn't lured the wolf into the house, and Li Chengdao would still be on the grassland, there would be no need for me to invade the ice field, and there would be no need for you ghost clan to die."
Yu Ying was overjoyed. Long Chen said this and agreed to cooperate.
"I promise to cooperate with you, but you must promise that after you ascend the throne, your people will withdraw from the war, seal off the Storm Canyon, never leave the ice field, and are not allowed to step into the Central Plains!"
Long Chen's face was sharp and he made his request.
Yuying immediately replied: "I promise that when I ascend the throne, my people will immediately withdraw from the war and never leave the Holy Land!"
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Okay, you will stay in my tent for the time being. Li Chengdao occupies the Storm Canyon, and you can't go back."
Fish Shadow bowed: "Thank you so much, King Wu."
Long Chen thought for a while and asked: "Is there any way you can pass through the Storm Canyon?"
Yu Ying thought hard for a long time. This was the first time Long Chen asked, and she really wanted to find a way.
"There is no other way. There is only one passage between the Holy Land and the Central Plains, the canyon, and there is no other way."
Yuying was helpless.
Long Chen nodded and said: "Oh,
It seems that the only option is to attack by force."
The fish shadow said: "We cannot attack by force. There are three thousand strong men on the top of the mountain. They have piled many huge rocks on the top of the mountain."
"In addition to three thousand strong men, there are also ten thousand crossbowmen on the top of the mountain. If we attack by force, the losses will be huge."
Long Chen glanced at Yu Ying, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, it's getting late. I'll sleep here, and you can sleep over there."
The fish shadow lay down in the corner, and Long Chen blew out the candle.
Yuying couldn't sleep at all. She was very excited and scared, and her eyes kept turning in the darkness.
.
Icefield, mountain pass camp.
Yue Lang was sitting in the igloo when Yu Nan came in and said, "Your Majesty, those two monsters are asleep."
"Where will you sleep? In the palace?"
Yue Lang originally wanted to live in the Ice Palace, but he was afraid of black turtles and spiritual snakes, so he had to live in the ice house.
Yu Nan said: "No, they ate a few brothers and slept in the igloo."
Yuelang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll just sleep here."
He didn't dare to go back for fear of being hit and eaten.
Moreover, Li Chengdao seems to be in poor condition, and it would be very dangerous if he breaks out.
"Hey, trouble, we lured the wolf into the house, those two monster fetuses are actually monsters."
Yue Lang leaned against the ice wall with a gloomy look on his face.
Yu Nan didn't speak and stood quietly.
"Fetch the great elder."
Yu Nan went out, and Great Elder Keling got in.
"His Majesty."
"sit down."
Ke Ling sat down, Yue Lang felt a headache, and Yu Nan sat next to him.
"You go out on patrol, be careful of Long Chen's sneak attack."
Yu Nan stood up and left.
"Great Elder, what should we do now?"
Yue Lang asked with a headache.
Ke Ling sighed: "What else can we do? Everyone listens to Li Chengdao. They are so powerful." Good, at least we can block Long Chen."
I have seen the terror of the spirit snake, and I have also seen Long Chen’s methods.
In the presence of two demon fetuses, Li Chengdao actually lost his Xuanwu sword and had an arm cut off. Without the two demon fetuses, the ghost clan had no choice but to squat down and suffer death.
Yue Lang looked ugly and said: "Compared to Long Chen, I am more afraid of Li Chengdao now."
"If Long Chen attacks, we can retreat to the dark place. Long Chen cannot stay here, and our saint clan can still be preserved."
"But Li Chengdao, how can he spend his time? In fact, I have never thought of letting our people fight to the death with Long Chen. We are no match."
Great Elder Ke Ling already knew that Yue Lang did not want to fight to the death.
When he first lobbied various tribes, Yuelang advocated retreating to avoid war.
"Who dares to disobey? If you don't obey, His Majesty's safety will not be guaranteed."
Keling sighed helplessly.
Some clan elders wanted to leave and led their clansmen to retreat to a desolate place to save their lives. Ke Ling told them not to move. Li Chengdao kept a close eye on them so that no one could escape.
"I now suspect that there is something wrong with Yunan and Yulang."
Yue Lang recalled his original decision. Yu Nan and Yu Lang tricked him into coming here. The two of them seemed to have rebelled.
"Why? They took refuge with Li Chengdao?"
Great Elder Keling had a bad feeling.
"I originally wanted Yunan and Yulang to lead the troops and isolate Li Chengdao, but now I find that they have taken refuge with Li Chengdao. The soldiers of my holy clan are all under Li Chengdao's control."
Yue Lang was very upset, things were completely out of control, and he, the king, became a puppet.
"Trouble."
The Great Elder Ke Ling frowned and said: "Don't be afraid, the warriors of the Holy Clan cannot listen to Li Chengdao's generals. Even if Yunan and Yulang rebel, we clan elders will still be there."
"As long as we speak out, our people will not follow Li Chengdao."
Ke Ling is very sure of this. These warriors have not settled in Yuecheng for a long time. They have always been with the tribe. The orders of the tribe elders are far more useful than the generals.
