Luwu Mountain is located in the northern region of Cangxi. When it is early in the season, there are indeed many migratory birds preparing to migrate south.
But the group of behemoths that Chen Tian saw now were obviously not among the ordinary migratory birds. They were flying together, covering the sky and the earth, and they were like a black cloud, which was extremely oppressive.
With the flashing and moving, the flock of birds carrying the morning sun on their backs cast large shadows, which are bright and dark at times, making your scalp numb.
Not to mention that everyone was dumbfounded, even Chen Tian had a look of astonishment on his face, clearly not expecting such a large number of ancient birds to appear in the northern region of Cangxi.
As the person in charge of the ghost lantern, Yan Han is well-informed, but when he looked up and saw these strange-looking birds, he was still puzzled.
Since he couldn't recognize him, everyone instinctively turned their inquiring eyes to Chen Tian, expecting him to give an answer.
"Gryphon."
"Ah?" Fan Changxiang was confused.
He was born in the Northern Territory of Cangxi, and he has never left Luwu Mountain. Of course, he has never seen many strange and strange things. When he heard the unfamiliar words read by Chen Tian, of course he subconsciously asked questions.
"What is a griffin? It looks like there is a living person on the back of the big bird!"
"You've never seen a lion, so you must have heard of it, right? It looks like a stone, almost like a Suan Ni." Chen Tian explained patiently, "The vulture is easier to understand. A vulture and a vulture are just big birds anyway.
Exhibit ten feet."
Fan Changxiang was stunned for a moment, then tried to say: "So the gryphon is a combination of the two?... It's a bit weird!"
He scratched his forehead and was confused, unable to combine the characteristics of a lion and a vulture, but when he thought about it carefully, the gryphon must be a very powerful beast.
"When Yin Jianye took control of the Northern Territory, he did bring a powerful force, which was apparently the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry." Yan Han's face didn't look good either. He followed Chen Tian's train of thought and quickly realized the key.
The gryphon itself is a demonic beast that is good at using wind-based magic. It is very powerful. Now it has been trained as a mount. It must have doubled its strength with the blessing of the military formation.
If the 20,000 troops and horses of our headquarters directly meet the 700,000 servants on the same road, coupled with 6,000 dragon and tiger cavalry, plus this bird flying across the sky——
Yan Han was timid.
Yongtai City's military strength is not superior to begin with, and now there are wild monsters, how can we fight this battle?
Seeing everyone's expressions tightening, Fan Changxiang finally put away his heartless smile and said in shock: "Don't tell me, these big birds are coming for our headquarters..."
"You guessed it right." Chen Tian patted his shoulder and made arrangements accordingly.
Now that the Zheci camp has been captured and killed, the crisis in Xieyue Valley has been resolved. The 12,000 Nanxiang troops should quickly pass through and join the navy in the open terrain beside the river.
As for this group of griffons, obviously no trace of the headquarters has been found yet, but the news of the defeat of Zheci Camp should be received by noon at the latest.
There is obviously a tough and fierce battle to be fought today, but as for how to fight it, Chen Tian has not yet finalized the details.
Looking from afar, Fan Changxiang accepted the order worriedly, and Chen Tian summoned the shogunate to hold a military meeting on the spot to discuss the next action.
He also took this opportunity to introduce the Griffin Legion in detail again.
Because of its large size, the griffin cannot perform as nimble turns as ordinary flying birds, but it can still perform quite a few aerial tricks without a rider.
It can fly in any weather and has the instinct to sense weather changes.
One of the reasons why the gryphon is difficult to tame is that it has strong confidence in itself in the air and will not accept unreasonable orders from its rider.
In short.
This beast is very smart. Although he is aggressive, he is not reckless.
If you want them to attack the pike formation as loyally as war horses, it will be impossible. After all, intelligent creatures are very precious about their lives.
"In other words, to deal with the Griffin Legion, we must attack it head-on and leave a deep impression?" Pang Xingyun concluded.
"That's right." Chen Tian nodded and asked, "What's your plan?"
"Qianji Pavilion has recently made a lot of siege heavy crossbows. They are powerful enough to penetrate iron plates and can be entrusted with important tasks." Pang Xingyun said in a eloquent manner and added, "Kangziying also has many sharpshooters. It is not a bad idea to use them with god-killing arrows.
The gryphon army cannot be controlled."
"Very good. All the siege heavy crossbows of the entire army will be handed over to the Kangzi camp. You are mainly responsible for air defense." Chen Tian thought for a while and asked Yan Han, "Where are the Qilong and the stone statue Suanni now?"
When we first set out, no one expected that the situation would develop so rapidly. The Qilong was the sacred mountain beast of Xianyin Pavilion, and the stone statue Suanni was the new mountain god of Luwu Mountain.
Logically speaking, they guard the earth's energy and cannot easily leave the Feng Shui place.
But now facing the griffin army, Chen Tian had to use them. It happened that he had already had an idea when he besieged Yin Fei and Wang Xiuge, and now he could put them to use.
"That batch of troop carriers is already on the way. According to the schedule, they will arrive at Xianyue Valley tomorrow at the earliest."
"What's the specific time?"
"Tomorrow at noon."
After hearing Yan Han's answer, Chen Tian looked up at the sun hanging above his head, knowing that it would take twelve hours before he would receive a batch of new troops that would change the situation of the war.
During this period of time, the open area outside Xieyue Valley must be defended no matter what, otherwise they will be forced into narrow terrain and the 20,000 Yongtai Army and Nanxiang Army will have no chance of survival.
The situation is very serious.
The Tangbao scouts had just delivered the order, and the army was immediately mobilized. There was a sound of armor rubbing against each other in the narrow Xianyue Valley, and there was a roar on both sides.
at the same time.
More than fifty places northeast of Pingmuguan, a group of banners suddenly appeared, looking like a forest. It was Yin Jianyuan who led the dragon and tiger cavalry to meet the griffin army.
The commander's platform towers into the clouds, and there are 650,000 servants gathered under the field, with bright armor. Except for the neighing of war horses from time to time, it is silent.
Everyone looked up at the sky and saw bursts of sky-piercing wind coming from above the night sky. The mighty spiritual energy fluctuations caused the light to become distorted and create ripples.
Howl——
Howl——
The leader of the team wore a piece of scale armor with golden flame patterns depicting ferocious animals. The top piece was stacked on top of the bottom piece, outlining the Yin clan emblem, which was like a blazing fire.
The pheasant crown on its head has two beards, which flutter in the wind like a swimming dragon.
"Final General Yin Jiancheng!"
"I was ordered to lead the Griffin Legion to help!"
The griffins landed on the ground, raising huge clouds of smoke and dust, which made the main formation's large banners roar. Everyone exclaimed in surprise, all admiring the majestic appearance of the griffin army.
Yin Jiancheng turned over from the saddle, took off his helmet and placed it at his feet. At the same time, he swung the front train of his shirt, knelt down on one knee, pulled off the command flag from behind and presented it to Yin Jianyuan with both hands.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
"Our nine hundred flying gryphons! They are all here now!"
"Dare to ask the general to review!"
"Please get up quickly." Yin Jianyuan looked down at his closest cousin on the field, walked quickly down from the general position, and helped him up personally, "I flew 1,900 miles that night, thank you for your hard work."
"My elder brother is in trouble, how can I dare to speak out about it!"
"Haha, with such words of respect for oneself, why worry about Chen Tian's immortality?" Yin Jianyuan laughed, patted Yin Jiancheng's shoulder, took the order flag and sealed it with the general.
The two made slight contact, and a dazzling light suddenly appeared, reflecting the Yin character in the ancient seal script, which was the emblem of the Yin clan.
Seeing such a grand and heroic feat, the dragon and tiger cavalry, who are descendants of the Yin family, were greatly inspired and cheered loudly.
The 650,000 servants nearby quickly cheered, and the three armies roared at the same time, making the sound stop and move the clouds.
Yin Jianyuan looked at the crowds of people under his command from a distance, his pride was soaring to the sky, and his chest was boiling. He pointed to the Xianyue Valley in the southwest and shouted in a deep voice:
"Chen Tian has done many evil things!"
"It has invaded four worlds and wreaked havoc for thousands of miles. Now it not only colludes with the demon clan to do evil, but also massacres the noble family members!"
"How many creatures are wailing and screaming for it, it can be called an extraterrestrial demon!"
"The army in our headquarters is extremely powerful. We must liberate the people and restore peace to the world!" This pre-war mobilization was extremely provocative. It instantly aroused the enthusiasm of the three armies and raised their arms in response. The mountains roared and the tsunami roared.
