In the meeting hall, Long Chen carefully told the story of how he and Yu Wenkai entered the ice field, as well as the ghost clan's pursuit, Long Chen's ambush, and the killing of Mo Xin, Mo Qi and Xia Feng.
After listening to this, everyone's fear of the ghost clan was almost gone.
Ghosts can be killed, and ghost generals who have lived for hundreds of years are nothing more than that.
"It should be said that our expedition was a complete victory."
"We killed the ghost clan and the generals under the Martial Saint. We destroyed more than 80,000 soldiers and horses of the Martial Saint, and dozens of generals. We killed tens of thousands of the ghost clan, more than 20,000 ghost soldiers, and killed the elders of the ghost clan.
General."
"And no soldiers on our side were killed!"
Killing hundreds of thousands of soldiers without losing a single soldier, such a result is unbelievable.
The empress said: "The reason why I led my troops to retreat to Yanmen Pass is because Wusheng Guinu led an army of 90,000 to pursue us. Our army only has 50,000, so it is disadvantageous to fight on the grassland."
"Generals, don't think that we are invincible and flee back to Yanmen Pass in panic."
"The army of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl is expected to arrive at Yanmen Pass in three days. All soldiers will immediately prepare to fight."
After talking about the battle out of the border and stabilizing the morale of the troops, the empress told the soldiers to do what they should do.
Long Chen added, "One more thing, let me tell everyone that the Holy Emperor, the king, the third princess, and the fourth princess have broken through to the true realm."
"Needless to say, the three generals, General Yuwen, are all real masters."
"Gan Xin, Mo Lin, Master Ziyun, Master Miaoyin broke through, and General Wu Jian, General Zhang Qian, and General Dugu all broke through. They are all true masters."
"We now have almost twenty real generals. No matter how many ghosts come, our generals can resist them!"
This matter is also very important. When a soldier is raging and a general is raging, it is the general who fights the war.
There were only five true masters when we went out for the expedition, but when we came back there were more than twenty. Everyone here thought they had heard wrongly.
Yu Fuguo looked at Feng He in surprise and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"
Feng He said: "My lord, I captured more than a hundred ghosts in their lair and came back. After drinking the blood of the ghosts, my cultivation level skyrocketed."
"Also, Old General Yuwen gave me a set of exercises that work well with ghost blood."
Yu Fuguo's hands trembled slightly. He dreamed of breaking through the real realm, so that his broken arm could be regenerated, and the dead tree would be reborn.
If there weren't so many people at this time, Yu Fuguo would immediately kneel down and beg Long Chen to help him improve his cultivation level.
"Okay, let's go back and prepare to fight. Tell all the brothers that we won a great victory in this expedition!"
After Long Chen finished speaking, the door of the meeting hall opened and the generals stood up and dispersed.
The empress asked the shadow guards to arrange for Yu Wenkai and the others to stay, and to arrange a separate military camp for the Demon Dragon Camp.
"You two come here, I have something to say."
The empress looked at Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan. The two princesses were about to ask the empress why she had summoned them.
"My son, I obey your orders."
The two princesses got up and followed the empress out.
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi wanted to go back and take a shower. During these times outside, they could only change clothes but not wash.
Master Ziyun and Master Miaoyin stood up with a smile and said, "Does the princess want to take a bath? Let's go together."
Di Luoxi smiled and said, "Okay, let's go together."
The four people smiled and walked out of the meeting hall together.
Long Chen finally stood up and when he walked to the door, Yu Fuguo came forward and bowed: "King Wu..."
Long Chen patted Yu Fuguo and said with a smile: "I know what you want to say. You can ask Gan Xin and Mo Lin about the technique. You don't have to worry about the ghost tribe. The ghost tribe's 50,000 army will arrive soon. When the war begins, capture two
I’ll give it to you. After your cultivation reaches the true realm, you can fulfill your long-cherished wish.”
Yu Fuguo had long said that he wanted to restore a man's body, and Long Chen always kept it in mind.
Yu Fuguo bowed excitedly: "Thank you, King Wu, my servant... my subordinate..."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Don't be so excited, go back, don't worry."
Yu Fuguo bowed and quickly left the meeting hall happily.
Long Chen walked out of the meeting hall and boarded Yanmen Pass.
The pass was thickened, artillery was mounted on both sides, and there was an open area in front.
In the age of cold weapons, wide areas were taboo in front of passes, because wide areas could mobilize troops to attack the city.
After having firearms, the open area was beneficial to Long Chen, so he deliberately cleared the front area.
"Meet King Wu."
When the soldiers at the pass saw Long Chen, they all bowed to him.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work. You are not short of food, clothing, armor and weapons, right?"
Long Chen pinched the soldier's clothes and found that they had been replaced by spring clothes, and the flesh on his body was also very strong.
The soldier said with emotion: "Thank you so much for your concern, King Wu. The brothers are all doing well. They are well fed and clothed."
There was a soldier next to him who looked like he was from Nanliang. Long Chen asked ten thousand times: "Where is home?"
The Nanliang soldiers were a little afraid of Long Chen, so they lowered their heads and said, "He's from Beiling City."
Long Chen patted the soldier on the shoulder and said: "Look up, I am also from Nanliang. If Li Chengdao hadn't forced our Long family to death, I should be the general of Nanliang now."
"When we get here, whether it's Nanliang, Eastern Zhou or Xixia, we are all brothers fighting back to back."
"We only have one common enemy, the ghost clan!"
The Nanliang soldiers looked up at Long Chen, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
Long Chen patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "We are brothers and fellow soldiers!"
After saying that, Long Chen continued to inspect the defense.
While Long Chen was inspecting the pass, the Empress, Di Yuwei, and Di Xingwan entered the room.
The shadow guard helped the empress take off her armor, change her clothes, and close the door.
"Thank you for your hard work, mother."
The two princesses poured tea and helped the empress sit down.
"There is no such thing as hard work when fighting in an overseas battle."
The empress sat down, took a sip of tea, and asked, "How are the affairs of the court going?"
Emperor Yu said slightly: "With the support of Lao Zhuguo and the ministers in the court performing their duties, everything will be fine."
In the past, there were many factions in the imperial court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the largest one was the Jingtian Lie family.
After Long Chen appeared, he was washed away several times with iron and blood methods, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is now very united.
"You two are staying in the capital, and there are a lot of government affairs. You have worked hard."
The empress looked at her two daughters and said with some distress.
Di Yu said slightly: "It's not as good as my mother's bloody battles outside."
After the empress finished drinking the tea, Emperor Xingwan took the tea cup and put it down, asking: "Mother, is this expedition really like what Long Chen said?"
There were a lot of people just now, so Long Chen would definitely say something nice to boost everyone's morale.
But in the end, only Long Chen and the Empress knew.
The empress nodded slightly and said: "Just like Long Chen said, this expedition went very smoothly, but these battles were fought by Long Chen. I led the army out and did not fight the ghost soldiers."
Di Yu asked slightly: "The Queen Mother led the army out of the pass, but did not fight the ghost tribe and retreated directly to Yanmen Pass. Is it just because the ghost army was powerful?"
Having said this, the empress was secretly happy and just continued to speak.
"Martial Saint and Ghost Girl have awakened. Martial Saint still has 40,000 soldiers under his command. Ghost Girl leads 50,000 ghost soldiers to dispatch, for a total of 90,000 troops."
"The troops under my command are only 50,000, and the ghost soldiers are more powerful. If we fight on the grassland, it will be disadvantageous."
"So Long Chen decided to retreat. When he returns to Yanmen Pass, he can use the pass for defense, and there is enough ammunition here."
The empress spoke slowly, and the two princesses listened slowly.
Emperor Xingwan asked: "Queen Mother, what do the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl look like?"
Wu Sheng is a legendary figure and a hero of the same period as Taizu Di Feng of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The ghost girl is the queen of the ghost tribe, hiding behind the Hera Pass, and she exists like a banshee.
The two princesses were very curious about what these two people looked like.
