"We have cleared away the barbarians on the grassland. Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl's 90,000-strong army are advancing on foot."
Long Chen felt it was fun, Wu Sheng must be feeling very angry.
Di Luoxi asked strangely: "Ninety thousand troops are advancing on foot? Are they going to go to the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse?"
Emperor Lingyi smiled and said: "That would be best. When they arrive at Yanmen Pass, the weather will get hot, and those ghost soldiers will definitely not be able to adapt."
The empress also felt that this was the best way to leave enough time to prepare for defense.
Especially regarding Long Chen, how to improve Long Chen's cultivation level so that he can compete with the Martial Saint.
"Let's go back to Yanmen Pass."
The empress was in a good mood and led the army to retreat southward.
...
Guitai took Ma Feizi and drove 200,000 horses towards the east as fast as possible.
Martial Saint, the ghost girl's army marched on foot to the southeast. After the ghost fetus left the army, they first went south and then east, which took a lot of distance.
To catch up with the army of Martial Saint and Ghost Girl near Kar Lake, Ghost Fetus must speed up.
The speed of war horses is much faster than that of humans. As long as the ghosts travel twice as fast, they can catch up in time.
Two hundred thousand horses marched at the same time, which looked mighty.
After more than ten days of long journey, we finally arrived near Kar Lake.
Guitai looked at the lake with a radius of dozens of miles, then rode his horse around the lake and ran to the north.
There are no footprints left by the marching army on the ground. The army of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl have not yet arrived at Kar Lake.
Kaer Lake is very large, and the army must pass through the north to attack Yanmen Pass, so no footprints can be seen on the ground, indicating that the ghosts arrived first.
Ma Feizi caught up and asked, "Holy Son, are you here?"
Guite said: "Right here, rest where you are."
Ma Feizi ordered his attendants to let the horses rest and drink water and rest on the spot.
Northwest.
The martial saint and the ghost girl are moving forward slowly.
After coming out of the Hera Pass, the army had walked a long way and everyone was very tired.
Especially the soldiers of the ghost tribe, they feel that the farther south they go, the hotter and humid they get. They feel like they are soaking in hot water, and they feel like they are suffocating.
It's like a fish coated in grease, making it uncomfortable.
The sedan the ghost girl was riding in had its outer shield removed, which made it cooler.
The thick clothes worn by the priests and demons were replaced by light clothes. Many of the male ghost soldiers exposed their chests, while the female ghost soldiers only wore single clothes, and some exposed their arms.
"Your Majesty, it is spring and summer in the Central Plains, and this season is not good for our people."
The priest demon spirits have suffered from the hot weather and do not agree to send troops at this time.
Of course the ghost girl knew that this season was unfavorable, but Long Chen killed the elders and generals in Storm Canyon and took away the ghost clan's holy sword. She must kill Long Chen, the sooner the better.
"I didn't think carefully when I sent the troops. If there were war horses, we would have reached Yanmen Pass by now."
The biggest mistake of this expedition was the lack of war horses. The 90,000-strong army advanced on foot. The ghost soldiers marched with complaints and wasted time. The weather was getting hotter and hotter.
The priest demon looked up at the dark clouds pressing in the sky and said: "The battle must be ended before summer comes."
The temperature at this time was still around zero, not too hot. If it were delayed until summer, the high temperature of dozens of degrees would make the ghost soldiers too hot to move.
The worst situation is when the sun comes out. Under the scorching sun, these ghost soldiers who have never seen the sun will be burned to pieces.
When they entered Nanliang, the ghost soldiers hid in dark places to rest during the day and only dared to come out at night.
During the day, soldiers under the command of Wu Sheng fought, and at night, soldiers from the ghost tribe fought, taking turns on both sides.
"We're heading to Lake Carl ahead."
The ghost girl looked to the southeast, and the warm wind blew a hint of the moist smell of the lake, reminding her of what happened back then.
The priest demon glanced at Kar Lake and thought to himself: The Holy Son said he would meet us at Kar Lake. I don’t know if the Holy Son has arrived.
The ghost girl was also worried about the ghost fetus in her heart, but she didn't say it or show it on her face.
Wu Sheng led the army slowly in front, while Wei Ying looked ahead with a pair of eagle eyes.
"There's something, Zhu Zhen, go take a look."
The guard eagle found something near Kar Lake, and Zhu Zhen immediately ran forward.
Wu Sheng ordered the army to pause and wait for Zhu Zhen to investigate clearly before advancing.
Zhu Zhen rushed forward, and when he was approaching Kar Lake, he smelled the smell of horses before he could see anything clearly.
"Where do all these horses come from?"
Zhu Zhen was very happy. They were short of horses. Judging from the taste, there were a lot of horses.
Getting closer, Zhu Zhen finally saw clearly that they were indeed horses, and there were a lot of them.
When Zhu Zhen approached, Gui Ti also saw the army in the distance.
"Holy Son, someone is coming."
Ma Feizi saw Zhu Zhen approaching quickly and immediately warned him.
Guitai smiled proudly and said, "That's Zhu Zhen, a general under my father who is responsible for inquiring about military intelligence."
Zhu Zhen arrived, and so did Wu Sheng.
This time, he could finally impress Wu Sheng.
Gui Fei rode his horse to the north and ran towards Zhu Zhen.
"Holy Son? Why are you here?"
Zhu Zhen didn't notice the ghost fetus leaving, but he was surprised to see it here.
The ghost boy was riding on a horse, glanced to the north, and said condescendingly: "Have the father, the queen and the queen arrived?"
Zhu Zhen looked at the more than 200,000 horses and said excitedly: "We've arrived. My lord has sent a few generals here to find out what's going on. I didn't expect it to be His Royal Highness the Son of God. Where did these horses come from?"
There were too many war horses, not tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands.
Guitai said proudly: "This is the horse I raised. My father, queen and queen are short of war horses. I have mobilized 200,000 horses to welcome them here."
Zhu Zhen worshiped: "The Holy Son is wise, the Lord will be happy, and the Queen will also be very happy."
After waking up, Zhu Zhen had always looked down on the ghost fetus, but this time he felt that the ghost fetus was capable.
Two hundred thousand horses, to be able to mobilize so many horses quietly requires great skill.
"Let's go and meet my father, queen and queen with me."
Guitai turned around and said: "Choose two of the best horses and give General Zhu a good horse."
Ma Feizi had already prepared a horse for Wu Sheng Gui Nu, and asked his men to choose a good horse for Zhu Zhen.
Zhu Zhen took the horse and said happily: "Thank you, Your Highness, the Holy Son."
Guitai took Zhu Zhen, Ma Feizi and the war horse back to the army.
Seeing Wu Sheng, Gui Fei bowed and said, "I have prepared 200,000 horses for my father, the king, and the generals. This is what I have prepared for my father, queen, and queen."
Wu Sheng looked at the sweaty horse, which was all black and without a single hair, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
"well done."
Wu Sheng raised his hand, and Gui Fei immediately led the horse over and helped Wu Sheng mount the horse.
Wu Sheng rode his horse for several laps. The sound of the sweaty horse's hooves was crisp and fast, and the running was powerful and light.
"Nice horse!"
Qin Hao, the general who broke the formation, clicked his tongue in admiration, and Zhang He, the archer general, asked in surprise: "Where did the Holy Son find such a good horse?"
The ghost fetus did not answer, but led another horse to the ghost girl's sedan and bowed: "My son, I have prepared a war horse for my mother."
This is a golden war horse, without a trace of hair on its body, and it looks very precious.
"good."
The priest demon helped the ghost girl get down from the sedan chair and ride on the horse.
The ghost girl held the horse's reins and said happily: "Okay, the queen likes it very much."
Wu Sheng rode his horse back to the front of the formation, looked at Ma Feizi and asked, "Is this the horse you raised?"
Ma Feizi knelt on the ground and did not dare to reply. He could feel the terrifying aura of the martial saint and the ghost girl.
And the 90,000 troops in front of us are not human beings!
