In the past, only the warriors of the Demon Dragon Camp ate ghosts, so it was called the Demon Dragon Camp.
Long Chen said that ghosts want to eat people, and people also want to eat ghosts. What does Wei Ying not understand?
Yu Wenkai chuckled and said, "This guy has the same temper as me. We both like ghost meat and find it extremely delicious."
Wei Ying looked at Long Chen again, and Long Chen smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't get me wrong, I only eat meat to improve my cultivation, not for the sake of eating meat."
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "You are not. Where are the soldiers under your command? And those martial arts people, who are not waiting to eat the flesh and blood of the ghost clan."
Yu Wenkai looked at Wei Ying again and said: "I passed the skills out, and they are all practicing the skills of our Demon Dragon Camp. Hey, you guys are here, just wait to be eaten."
After saying that, Yu Wenkai and Long Chen stood up and left, leaving the people in the West Factory staring.
The crossbows were pointed at Wei Ying and Zhu Zhen, and the muskets were aimed in the dark. The two of them were unable to fly.
When I walked out of the cell, it was already midnight, and it would be dawn soon.
"It's too late to sleep, prepare for battle."
Yu Wenkai patted Long Chen and took Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue down.
Long Chen watched the three of them return to their room.
Bai Tingting felt very confused and asked: "Husband, don't you have any purpose in intercepting and killing the three of them at night?"
After spending a lot of time in one night, it feels like a pity to just tie him up instead of torture him and ask for information after he was captured.
Long Chen said: "These two have followed the Martial Saint for hundreds of years, and they won't say anything."
"I arrested them because Wei Ying is too good at spying on information, and Feng He is no match for him."
"Seizing the guard eagle means that Wu Sheng has lost a hound. In future battles, our intelligence will be superior."
I don’t know how long the war with Wu Sheng will last. If there is a chance to capture Wei Ying, Long Chen will definitely do it.
Without the Guardian Eagle, Wu Sheng would have lost his eyes and ears, and his intelligence gathering ability would be greatly weakened.
From now on, it will be much easier for Feng He to do things, and Long Chen will have an advantage in intelligence.
Dugu Jiali nodded and said: "That's right, the enemy's first opportunity lies in intelligence collection."
Bai Tingting said regretfully: "It's a pity that one of them ran away, and our situation was still leaked a lot."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Don't blame yourself, this is fine. Go back and prepare. There is still a big battle today."
Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting went back, while Long Chen returned to his room to rest for a while.
...
Outside the Yanmenguan Beacon Tower.
Li Man hurriedly avoided the beacon tower and returned to the place where he started. At this time, the sky was dimming.
Looking to the south, Li Man lamented: "How could this happen..."
After finding the place where the horses were hidden, Li Man took two horses and galloped to the northwest.
After running for more than fifty miles, it was getting brighter and Li Man saw Wu Sheng's army.
Walking at the front was Qin Hao, the general who broke the formation.
Xia Feng is dead, Qin Hao takes up the task of vanguard general.
Seeing Li Man, Qin Hao stepped forward and asked, "You're back? How is the situation at Yanmen Pass?"
Li Man was in a low mood, shook his head and asked: "Is my lord behind?"
Qin Hao nodded and asked, "What happened? Where is Wei Ying?"
Li Man lowered his head and said nothing. Qin Hao said in surprise: "No way? Wei Ying died in the battle?"
Li Man sighed, rode through the vanguard, and saw Wu Sheng and the ghost girl.
"Lord."
Li Man cheered up and went to see Wu Sheng.
"Where's the Guardian Eagle?"
Wu Sheng immediately realized that something was wrong. Li Man did not dare to hide it and said truthfully: "We encountered an ambush outside Yanmen Pass last night, and General Wei and Zhu Zhen were captured."
When Wei Ying flew high into the sky, Li Man saw him. He wanted to rescue him and chased him for more than ten miles. He watched helplessly as Long Chen captured Wei Ying alive and brought him back to Yanmen Pass.
It was at that time that he met Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting. Li Man did not dare to fight and immediately got rid of the entanglement between the two.
After getting rid of Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting, Li Man did not leave immediately, but returned to Yanmen Pass to investigate the situation.
Wei Ying said that if something happens, the remaining people must complete the task.
So Li Man still sneaked into Yanmen Pass to find out the strength of the human army. At the same time, he also found out about Wei Ying and Zhu Zhen being imprisoned.
Wu Sheng had a look of astonishment on his face.
Xia Feng died in battle because of his arrogance. This is understandable, but Wei Ying comes and goes like the wind, how could he be tricked?
"How did you get discovered?"
Wu Sheng couldn't understand, so Li Man said: "Long Chen had long expected that we would sneak in, so he laid a trap in advance and we fell into the trap."
Gui Fei was listening behind him, laughing secretly in his heart: You know how powerful the little thief is, but if you say I can't do it, you are even more stupid.
Since returning to the ice field, Gui Fei has been scolded every day for being useless, saying that he can't deal with a young boy.
It's good now. Of all the ghost generals who faced Long Chen, none of them could take advantage.
The ghost girl listened and said: "Interesting, such a little thief is worth killing."
Wu Sheng didn't want to talk about this anymore, it was too embarrassing.
"How is the situation at Yanmen Pass?"
Li Man replied: "The strength is around 500,000. Long Chen specially trained 60,000 people, and the others are ordinary soldiers."
"The defense of Yanmen Pass is very strong. The fortifications are pushed out for twenty miles, and the barriers are all over the place. They are all equipped with strong bows and crossbows."
"As for the generals, there are no changes, just Long Chen and the Empress."
After hearing this, Wu Sheng sneered and said: "A mere five hundred thousand ordinary soldiers and horses want to stop me."
"Send the order to the entire army to march at full speed."
The order was passed on, and the 90,000-strong army of the ghost clan marched southward to attack.
...
Yanmen Pass.
When the empress woke up in the morning, Ziyun and Miaoyin walked into the room wearing special armors and weapons.
The maid is dressing the empress.
"Long Chen captured Wei Ying and Zhu Zhen last night."
Master Ziyun came in and said.
The empress smiled and said: "I have heard that this boy is quite capable and can actually catch the Eagle Guard."
People who do reconnaissance are better at hiding, and it is more difficult to catch them.
Miaoyin said: "Long Chen can catch anyone he wants to catch."
The empress smiled and said: "That's right."
The three of them chatted, and the depressing atmosphere before the battle dissipated a bit.
After the empress finished dressing up, the three of them came out of the room and went to the south of Yanmen Pass.
Long Chen, Yu Wenkai and the four princesses led the Long family army and other generals to line up, waiting for the arrival of the empress.
The barbarian Chanyu Tuzhi followed him with the barbarian generals.
"Greetings to the Holy One."
The empress came over and everyone bowed to see her.
The empress first paid her respects to Yuwen Kai: "Old General, you worked hard last night."
A Zhu Zhen was caught last night, so the empress said so.
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "I just caught two small fish."
South of the pass, an army of 500,000 people was arrayed, divided into six military formations: Elite Battalion, Long Family Army, Nanliang Army, Beida Camp, Leihuo Camp, Wolf Clan Army, and another group of Wulin soldiers.
Specially trained soldiers were organized into a separate army, and their number was expanded to 70,000.
The empress slowly walked up the tower, followed by Long Chen, Yu Wenkai, and the four princesses.
Standing at the gate, looking to the south, half a million troops were arrayed, black smoke rose around them, and the chilling atmosphere before the war enveloped everyone.
