When Feng He ran over quickly, Long Chen knew that things had changed. He immediately stepped forward to hold the horse's rein and asked, "What's wrong? Are you in such a hurry?"
Feng He said anxiously: "Oh no, I saw hundreds of thousands of horses near Kar Lake."
"I guess they are here to welcome the Martial Saint. They have war horses and their marching speed will be faster."
Feng He was watching Wu Sheng's soldiers and horses from a distance in front. When he reached Kar Lake, he saw the horses brought by Ma Feizi and Gui Tai.
Of course, Feng He only saw the horses, not the ghost fetuses.
The presence of so many war horses on the Martial Saint's only path must have been prepared for the Martial Saint.
The grassland has almost been cleared of barbarians. The group of horses that suddenly appeared cannot be barbarians. They should be reserved by ghosts.
After seeing this, Feng He immediately gave up surveillance and rushed back to tell Long Chen.
"How far are they?"
If Wu Sheng's army had war horses, it could speed up a lot. When Feng He arrived, Wu Sheng was probably arriving soon.
Feng He said: "Five days at most. If we travel day and night, I'm afraid only three days are left at most."
Long Chen's face darkened slightly, and he immediately rode on his horse to chase after the empress.
Yu Wenkai looked to the northwest and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't be afraid, come as soon as you come, sooner or later there will be a fight to the death."
Lieutenants Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue both looked relaxed, they didn't care much about Wu Sheng.
After fighting for more than four hundred years, life and death no longer matter.
The brothers of the past have passed away, they only live to complete their mission.
So they have no fear in their hearts.
"Soldiers will come to cover up the water and earth, so don't be afraid."
Yang Hu smiled and patted Feng He, asking him to change to a horse.
Feng Hezuo dismounted and rushed day and night. He was already very tired.
Long Chen rushed to the front of the team, saw the empress, and said: "Your Majesty, speed up the march, the Martial Saint is chasing you."
Master Ziyun next to him asked in surprise: "You're chasing me? What do you mean?"
The army of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl have been chasing after them. Everyone knows it, so why bother to come up and tell them?
Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, Wu Sheng suddenly got hundreds of thousands of war horses and is speeding up to catch up with us. It can take as fast as three days or as slow as five days to catch up with us."
The empress' face changed slightly and she asked: "Where did he get hundreds of thousands of war horses? All the barbarians on the grassland retreated, where did the war horses come from?"
Master Miaoyin was also surprised. At this time, Wu Sheng could actually get hundreds of thousands of war horses. It was simply unbelievable.
Long Chen said: "No matter how he got here, he got it anyway. We must speed up our march and return to Yanmen Pass as soon as possible."
The empress no longer worried about where the horses were coming from, and immediately ordered everyone to speed up the march.
Soon, the army returned to Yanmen Pass.
Hou Qi found out that the empress had returned to the pass and immediately informed Wu Xiangyun. Emperor Yuwei and Di Xingwan led all the soldiers in the pass to come out to greet her.
The Empress, Long Chen, and Yu Wenkai were at the front, followed by Di Luoxi, Di Lingyi, Ziyun, Miaoyin, and Tuzhi.
"My son, I pay homage to my mother."
The two princesses bowed in front of the horses, followed by Wu Xiangyun, Zhao Ying, and Yu Fuguo.
"Get back on your feet, let's talk about it after entering the customs."
The empress was very anxious, and Di Yuwei felt that something was wrong, so he immediately stepped aside and allowed the army to enter Yanmen Pass.
After entering the customs, Long Chen ordered everyone to enter combat positions and prepare to face the enemy.
Long Chen had obtained war horses from Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl's 90,000-strong army, and the news spread that they were speeding up to kill them. Everyone immediately became nervous and prepared to fight.
After the defense arrangements were completed, Long Chen and the Empress entered the meeting hall, and the generals took their seats one after another.
The empress is sitting in the middle, Long Chen, Yu Wenkai, Wu Jian, Gan Xin, Mo Lin, Tuzhi, and Hu Feiyang are on the right, and the four princesses and female generals such as Miao Yin, Zi Yun, and Zhang Qian are on the left.
All the soldiers took their seats one after another, with Feng He, Yu Fuguo, and Lu Ji at the back.
"How's it going this time?"
When Yu Fuguo met the empress, Long Chen looked nervous and asked Feng He's situation in a low voice.
Feng He said solemnly: "I'm going to talk about it soon, please listen first."
Yu Fuguo raised his head and looked forward. The empress had already spoken.
"Generals, I will first introduce you to an old general."
The empress first looked at Yu Wenkai and continued: "Many people already know about it, and there are still some who don't. I will introduce you to him again."
"This is Senior General Yu Wenkai, a subordinate of General Long Yuan. Behind him are the deputy generals, Senior General Yang Hu, and Senior General Tan Wenyue."
"The three old generals have three thousand demon dragon camps under their command. They are all above the Martial Emperor. They have experienced hundreds of battles and have been fighting for four hundred years."
When the empress introduced them, the generals' eyes fell on Yu Wenkai and the other three.
Among the generals who followed the expedition, some had seen Yu Wenkai, and some had not.
The generals in the pass only heard about it and only got to see it today.
A veteran general from four hundred years ago appeared in front of them, and all the generals were surprised and curious.
Di Yuwei and Di Xing heard about it when they were in the capital at night, and they only saw me today.
Yu Wenkai's temperament is a little cold, but other than that, he feels like a tough guy, and there's nothing particularly surprising about him.
"I thought the old general had three heads, six arms and eight eyes, but today it seems that he is no different from us."
Emperor Xingwan couldn't help but said.
After hearing this, Yu Wenkai laughed and said, "The daughters you gave birth to are all beautiful, which makes this brat like Long Chen much easier!"
Everyone did not expect that Yu Wenkai would suddenly say this. The meeting hall suddenly became quiet, and the empress and the four princesses felt particularly embarrassed.
Long Chen was also stunned. On such an important occasion, Yu Wenkai was so unruly.
Fortunately for Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi, they have already been granted marriage, and sooner or later they will be husband and wife with Long Chen.
Di Yuwei was a little embarrassed on the surface, but actually felt it was nothing. Anyway, he and Long Chen were actually married, and he was even secretly happy in his heart.
Only Di Xingwan felt ashamed and blushed, unable to speak.
The empress glanced at Long Chen, who coughed dryly and said, "Old General, what are you talking about? Why are you taking advantage of me?"
"Don't think too much, the old general is funny, it was just a joke."
Yu Wenkai chuckled and said: "You should be beaten if you still act like a good boy after taking advantage of him."
Long Chen didn't want to continue this topic and immediately said: "The old general once followed the ancestors to fight against the Martial Saint and the ghost girl. He knows everything about the ghost clan. With the old general here, we have a greater chance of winning."
"This time when I left the border, I took the first step and found the place where Wu Sheng hid his troops. I killed more than 80,000 ghost soldiers and dozens of ghost generals."
"Later, I found the old general Yuwen who had been sealed for four hundred years at the Hera Pass, and with three thousand demon dragon battalions, they entered the ice field where the ghost tribe was, which was their hometown, and wiped out tens of thousands of ghost tribe."
The soldiers guarding Yanmen Pass did not know what Long Chen had done. Even generals such as Han Ziping and Tang Heizi did not fully understand what happened to Long Chen after he came out of the pass.
Therefore, when everyone is discussing the matter, it is necessary for Long Chen to speak up once.
This is done not only to let everyone know, but also to give everyone confidence not to be afraid of the ghost clan.
"King Wu entered the ghost clan's lair?"
A young general sitting in the back asked in surprise.
This young general did not go on an expedition and was stationed at Yanmen Pass, so he did not know about this matter.
Long Chen said: "Yes, it's a frozen world there. The ghosts live in igloos made of ice, with thick ice under their feet, and make a living by fishing."
"Other than that, there is nothing strange. They look just like us. Ordinary ghosts are not monsters with three heads and six arms. The old general killed tens of thousands of ghosts with three thousand soldiers."
After listening to Long Chen's words, the generals below dispelled a lot of their fear of the ghost clan.
I used to think that the ghost clan was very mysterious and terrifying, but now that Long Chen has entered the ghost clan's hometown, the ghost clan is no longer an unknowable and mysterious existence.
