Master Liunian went to look for Long Wanyu. Long Sanqian went to report to King Shenwu.
Sima Changkong took Gu Hai and his party to live there. In a small courtyard, Gu Hai and Sima Changkong drank tea and chatted.
"The prince is hosting a banquet in the evening to welcome Mr. Gu. Let me first tell Mr. Gu about Po Jun's army!" Sima Changkong said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Gu Hai nodded.
"Po Jun is a heaven-level harp. First of all, it can control millions of harp figurines. You have seen it before!" Sima Changkong took a sip of tea and said solemnly.
"Millions of bronze men, all of whom are at the peak of Nascent Soul. They are extremely powerful, and there are millions of them. They can attack cities and strongholds with no disadvantages?" Gu Hai recalled.
"Yes, there is no disadvantage, really there is no disadvantage. In the past, with Long Wanyu's help, we found all the spies inside and slandered Mo Yike. Mo Yike is now in a difficult situation. However, Long Wanyu's arrival has made Mo Yike a difficult situation.
He helped us so much, resulting in a record of seven wins and one defeat!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"The young prince mentioned it to me!"
"Well, the young prince went to Jiuwu Island in person with the prince's sincerity. The problem we encountered was the Po Army. Po Army's millions of figurines attacked the city. It didn't take long for the city to be broken.
If you enter, there will be no disadvantages, but fortunately we have a way to deal with it!" Sima Changkong laughed.
"oh?"
"You also saw the 'Book of Calligraphy' before. There are also some strong calligraphers in our military camp. Our Sima family's "Huangquan Destruction Dharma Sutra" also shines brightly. As long as there are Qin figurines breaking into the city, they will immediately enter our book.
Among the rules of Tao, it is restricted by the order of my calligraphy, so that there is no escape!" Sima Changkong explained.
Gu Hai nodded.
"But the Qin figurines are too flexible. Unless they break in on their own, it will be difficult to do anything to them. Although we have ways to resist them, it is difficult to move even an inch. We can't get out. Not only the Qin figurines, but also the Pojun bombs."
"Les Misérables" played by me!" Sima Changkong frowned.
"Les Misérables, we have seen it. In the past, Silver Moon City shrouded the whole city, making it impossible to escape?" Gu Hai frowned.
"Yes, Fairy Wan'er's miserable world. Oh, Fairy Wan'er used to be a guest at Prince Luyang's Mansion and presented this song to Po Jun, so...!" Sima Changkong said bitterly.
"The army dare not take a step outside the city, otherwise it will lose its five senses, become deaf and blind?" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
"That's right! The army can't leave the city, how can we advance? So we..., ha, although it's not glorious, it's nothing, we sent assassins!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"oh?"
"If you go, you never come back. Once you go, you never come back. Many people went there, including a strong man from Kaitian Palace!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"A strong man from Kaitian Palace?" Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.
Sima Changkong nodded: "Open Tiangong, haha, there was no sound after entering the Pojun camp, not even a sign of struggle!"
"Lu Yang?"
"No, Lu Yang is sitting in the main camp and has not come out. There should be a strong person in the Pojun camp. According to our repeated verification, he should be a longevity master!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"Oh?" Gu Hai raised his eyebrows slightly.
Gu Hai remembered that Long Wanqing's letter and Wei Shengren's words mentioned that there was a longevity master under King Lu Yang. Did that longevity master detain Long Xiaoyue's three souls?
"I heard that there are less than two hands of longevity masters in the world! How...?" Gu Hai frowned.
There are less than ten people, why are there so many here, King Lu Yang?
Sima Changkong smiled bitterly and said: "You are right, there are only eight Shou Masters in total, four white-robed Shou Masters and four black-robed Shou Masters. In the world for thousands of years, there are only eight! Then in the future Shengren, uh, I can’t tell what’s going on. However, there are only eight inheritable longevity masters recorded in the Daqian Dynasty! But there is one in Pojun Camp!”
"In the face of a broken army, the ordinary army cannot leave the city, and it will be very dangerous for the experts to go there?" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
"Yes, that's why the prince wants you to crack "Les Misérables"!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
Gu Hai frowned slightly. Let Gou Chen crack it? How?
The two chatted for a while, and in the evening, Gu Hai brought Gou Chen, Gao Xianzhi, and Mu Chenfeng. The four of them followed Sima Changkong to the Zhennan Hall.
At this moment, the two rows of Zhennan Hall were already filled with banquets, and a large number of civil and military officials also arrived in the hall, seemingly waiting for Gu Hai.
At the main table in the north of the main hall, King Shenwu is sitting.
King Shenwu was dressed very casually, wearing only a gorgeous brocade robe. His face was broad and he was not angry or majestic.
This was also the first time Guhai saw King Shenwu. Although there was a smile on his face, there was a great majesty coming towards him from a long distance away.
"Greetings, Commander-in-Chief, this is the Master of Guhai Hall!" Sima Changkong bowed slightly to King Shenwu.
"Gu Hai, I have met the Generalissimo Zhennan!" Gu Hai gave a slight salute.
"Mr. Gu, you're welcome. I've long heard of Mr. Gu's great talent, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to meet him. I'm very pleased to see Mr. Gu today. Mr. Gu, please take a seat!" King Shenwu said with a slight smile.
An attendant immediately led Guhai and his party to a table at the front of the left column of the main hall.
Gu Hai and the four of them sat down.
Gou Chen sat down, his eyes lit up, he looked at the food on the table, and he raised his chopsticks to pick it up.
"Yeah!" All the civil and military officials suddenly frowned.
None of us have even used our chopsticks, and we are waiting for you to come. When you come, you don’t even say hello, but you are about to start eating?
"Gou Chen!" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
Gou Chen's face froze, and he reluctantly put down the piece of meat on his chopsticks, but his eyes kept staring.
"Mr. Gu, I would like to give you a toast. Thank you for taking action to remove Lu Yang's dragon army!" King Shenwu raised his glass and smiled.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Gu Hai toasted in return.
For a moment, all the civil and military officials raised their glasses and drank in unison.
The drinks were gone and the atmosphere in the hall relaxed.
"Eat!" Gu Hai said to Gou Chen.
"Aww! Aww!" Gou Chen quickly picked up the dishes.
"Mr. Gu, I wonder if you have any opinion on the battle between our two armies?" King Shenwu said with a smile.
"Marshal's wisdom is in my hands, so I won't talk too much!" Gu Hai shook his head.
"I heard that Mr. Gu also had a big feud with Lu Yang, so he destroyed Da Ying's luck, Geng Jin Sect, and dragons?" King Shenwu looked at Gu Hai.
Gu Hai smiled bitterly and said: "Immortal hatred!"
"For Long Wanqing, Long Xiaoyue?" King Shenwu said solemnly.
"Not bad!" Gu Hai said with a solemn expression.
"Xiaoyue is my sister, the most spiritual one among my sisters, and she had the best relationship with me back then. When I learned that King Lu Yang died, I was the first to ask the Holy One to take revenge. That's how we are today. The Grand Marshal of Zhennan, it’s a pity that Long Wanqing..., alas!" Long Shenwu sighed slightly.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Gu Hai said sincerely.
"Oh, Mr. Gu, I have read your information. Mr. Gu has unparalleled resourcefulness and superb means. Why don't you join me to destroy Lu Yang's army and avenge Long Wanqing and Long Xiaoyue?" King Shenwu invited.
Gu Hai nodded: "I came with the young prince this time, that's exactly what I meant!"
"That's the best thing. I have the Sixth Army at my disposal. How about I leave it to Mr. Gu to take command for the time being?" King Shenwu immediately smiled.
"Commander the Sixth Army?" Gu Hai was slightly confused.
"Yes, the Sixth Army is a group of brave and skilled troops. It just lacks a wise commander. Mr. Gu will not give up. How about helping me take charge of the Sixth Army? In this way, we can destroy Lu Yang's army as quickly as possible!" King Shenwu said solemnly.
Gu Hai frowned slightly but did not speak.
Commanding the Sixth Army? Indeed, he immediately took control of a large number of military forces. However, this is not what Gu Hai wants. After all, Gu Hai is the emperor of a country. He can cooperate with you, but he cannot submit to you.
As a first-grade hall master, I am just a guest official, and I will not submit to anyone. Do I want to be your subordinate when I join your military camp?
But King Shenwu's tone was a sincere invitation. Maybe Emperor Dahan hadn't seen King Shenwu yet, but just because others didn't like it, didn't it mean he could let it go?
"Okay?" King Shenwu smiled.
After a moment of silence, Gu Hai smiled slightly and said, "The commander-in-chief trusts me so much?"
"Natural!" King Shenwu affirmed.
With a slight wry smile, Gu Haida said: "Thank you for your trust, Commander-in-Chief. However, since Commander-in-Chief trusts me, I have a suggestion. I hope Commander-in-Chief does not mind!"
"oh?"
"I, Gu Hai, am used to being idle. I haven't led an army for a long time. I'm afraid that I won't be able to lead the army well, so I won't lead it anymore! The commander-in-chief said that the Sixth Army lacks a wise commander. I'd like to recommend one. How about one?" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Huh?" King Shenwu frowned slightly.
In the main hall, a group of civil and military officials also looked at Gu Hai in surprise.
The commander-in-chief kindly offered you the position of commander of the Sixth Army, but you don’t appreciate it?
"Mr. Gu's recommendation should be accurate. I wonder who it is?" King Shenwu asked doubtfully.
"Gao Xianzhi!" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
"I'm here!" Gao Xianzhi immediately stood up and said respectfully.
The ministers looked at the middle-aged general with confusion. They thought he was Gu Hai's follower before.
"King Shenwu, this is my confidant, Gao Xianzhi, the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Legion. Gao Xianzhi can be at the helm!" Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Wow!"
The officials in the main hall were in an uproar. Recommend one of your subordinates?
The commander-in-chief allowed you, an outsider, to control the Sixth Army. It was already a great favor, but you were not satisfied and ordered a subordinate to come out? Are you looking down on our army?
Some officials even stared at Gu Hai.
King Shenwu frowned and looked at Gao Xianzhi.
King Shenwu did not speak, but a tall man with a beard jumped out not far away.
"Gu Hai, you are so presumptuous. The commander-in-chief treats you like a nobleman, but you are so neglectful of the commander-in-chief? Are you humiliating us?" The man with a long beard glared.
"Who is your Excellency?" Gu Hai frowned.
"I am the current commander of the Sixth Army, Baili Zhan!" the bearded man glared.
"It turns out to be General Baili. Oh, why are you so sure that I am humiliating you? Which of your eyes saw that I was neglecting the commander-in-chief?" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
King Shenwu on the side did not speak, but drank wine, squinted his eyes, and watched quietly.
"It's not that you are neglecting the commander, but you want to command the Sixth Army by sending a servant?" Baili Zhan glared.
"The commander-in-chief needs wise men. As long as he can lead his troops in battle and surpass you, that's enough, right?" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Just him? A servant? Has he ever participated in the Cultivators' War?" Baili Zhan shouted with eyes wide open.
Gu Hai looked at Gao Xianzhi and motioned for Gao Xianzhi to answer.
Gao Xianzhi took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in his heart, and understood that this was the emperor training himself.
"Back to General Baili, I have only led secular armies!" Gao Xianzhi took a deep breath and said.
"Have you only led a secular army? Have you never participated in a Cultivator's War? You have never participated in a Cultivator's War, yet you dare to overestimate your capabilities and want to command our Sixth Army?" Baili Zhan shouted with a glare.
"The commander-in-chief needs a wise man, not a reckless man!" Gao Xianzhi replied calmly.
"Reckless man? Haha, you are a young boy, how dare you call me a reckless man?" Baili Zhan glared.
"General Baili, war is not a matter of words!" Gao Xianzhi said lightly.
"You bastard!" Baili Zhan's eyes seemed to bulge.
"Baili Zhan!" King Shenwu said.
"Commander, this kid doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, let me teach him a lesson!" Baili Zhan immediately shouted.
"Huh?" King Shenwu frowned.
"Commander, I don't mean to use force. This kid is arrogant. I want to give him a sandbox simulation and let him know that an army of cultivators is not something they take for granted. The lives of every soldier in our Sixth Army are precious.
We can't let him ruin it!" Baili Zhan shouted.
King Shenwu frowned slightly and looked at Gu Hai.
"Battlefield deduction?" Gu Hai looked at King Shenwu doubtfully.
"Battlefield deduction is a magic weapon. Use your consciousness to enter the magic weapon. Each side will command a group of troops, including various arms. They fight each other to determine the winner. This is a magic weapon for learning war!" Sima Changkong explained at the side!
.
"Gu Hai, didn't you recommend this guy of yours? Let him try it out. How about I give him a thousand troops?" Baili Zhan sneered.
"Commander, since General Baili is interested, let Gao Xianzhi give it a try?" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"That's fine!" King Shenwu nodded.
Not far away, Baili Zhan showed a proud smile.
Gu Hai looked at Gao Xianzhi and said: "Gao Xianzhi, Baili Zhan has inspired you to accept the challenge, don't underestimate me!"
Gao Xianzhi looked solemn and immediately understood what Gu Hai meant. This Hundred Miles War may seem reckless and harmless, but it contains a shrewdness that should not be underestimated.
"Yes, Your Majesty! I will not disappoint Your Majesty!" Gao Xianzhi said respectfully.
"Kuang!"
Not far away, several attendants carried a huge jade platform. On the jade platform, there were a large number of rune formations carved on it.
"Come on, boy, this is your first time using this battlefield deduction platform. Just follow me and put your palms on the edge and sink your mind into it!" Baili Zhan sneered.
Gao Xianzhi nodded and walked to the center of the hall.
The two stood on both sides of the jade platform with their hands on the platform.
"Buzz!"
A ray of light suddenly appeared from the jade platform, and the two of them entered the consciousness and slowly closed their eyes.
"boom!"
On the jade platform, a dazzling light suddenly bloomed, projecting a battlefield of mountains, rivers and hills.
At both ends of the battlefield, on one side was Gao Xianzhi leading an army of 100,000 cultivators, and on the other side was Baili Zhan leading an army of 100,000 cultivators.
A battlefield deduction is about to begin.
Gao Xianzhi vs Baili Zhan!
The legion commander of Long Shenwu vs. the legion commander of Gu Hai!
