Ji Tianxing's decision was undoubtedly the best choice.
More than twenty generals all showed relieved smiles.
Generals who were willing to participate in the war enthusiastically reported their names and wanted to follow Ji Tianxing on the expedition.
The generals who were unwilling to go to war stayed in Falling Star Valley and waited for the war to end before they could go home.
After a while, the matter was settled.
Twelve generals are willing to go on the expedition, and the other fourteen choose to stay in Falling Star Valley.
Ji Tianxing asked the twelve generals to go back and prepare and wait for his orders at any time.
The other fourteen generals also bid farewell and left one after another.
In the meeting hall, only Ji Tianxing and Du Chengchang were left.
Du Chengchang said with a smile: "Ji Shuai is indeed a born god of war. His grasp of the battle situation and military morale is exquisite!"
He bowed his hands to Ji Tianxing and flattered him sincerely.
Ji Tianxing did not appreciate it. He looked at him with an indifferent expression and asked in a deep voice: "Du Chengchang, did you deliberately arrange for Wanzhi to be with me?"
Du Chengchang's face suddenly stiffened and he put on a slightly embarrassed smile.
"Ji Shuai, what do you mean by this? Did Wan Zhi offend you?
Or is Wanzhi's sudden disappearance displeasing to you?"
Ji Tianxing frowned and said with a majestic expression: "People of the bright side don't tell secrets. You should know what happened in Chiyang Imperial City."
Du Chengchang quickly put on a smiling face, showed an expression of realization, and said: "Oh, it turns out you are unhappy because of this!
A few days ago, both the old man and the imperial family knew that Marshal Ji was coming to help.
The old man was busy preparing for the welcome ceremony, when the girl Wan Zhi came to Luo Xing Valley and brought a handwritten letter from the empress.
The Empress and the Empress ordered that Shuai Ji come all the way to help his country resolve the danger of the demon clan. He is a very honored guest.
Miss Wan is the personal maid beside her, the most trustworthy and the best at serving others.
Therefore, what the Empress Dowager means is to let the girl Wan Zhi serve you personally so that you will not be neglectful.
How dare I go against the wishes of the Empress? Of course I obeyed her orders."
Speaking of this, Du Chengchang stroked his white beard and sighed with compassion: "Who would have thought that the always gentle and virtuous empress would turn out to be a witch who brought disaster to the country and the people.
The old man never expected that Ji Shuai would personally go to the imperial city and reveal the true face of the empress.
Now that I think about it, there is probably something wrong with that girl Wan Zhi.
The old man was confused for a while and did not find out Wanzhi's identity.
But I don’t know anything about this, so please forgive me, Marshal Ji!”
Du Chengchang's words were reasonable and well-founded, and he completely shied away the responsibility, leaving Ji Tianxing speechless.
But Ji Tianxing always felt that Du Chengchang was too cunning and might not be clean.
He stared at Du Chengchang deeply and asked in a deep voice: "Du Chengchang, you are not a general of the Chiyang Empire, but a martial arts master from the world.
I just want to ask you one question, are you loyal to Tantai Xian'er or to Chiyang Holy Emperor?"
Du Chengchang also frowned and said with a wry smile: "Shuai Ji's words are puzzling. The master of the Chiyang Empire is the Holy Emperor. I am a citizen of Chiyang, so of course I am loyal to the Holy Emperor."
Ji Tianxing glanced at him and said in an indifferent tone: "Let's let this matter go, you can take care of yourself.
Tomorrow morning, I will lead the army to go on an expedition, you just have to guard Falling Star Valley."
Du Chengchang bowed his hands with a smile on his face and said in a firm tone: "Please rest assured, Commander Ji, there is an old man in charge of Luo Xing Valley, nothing will go wrong!"
…
Early the next morning, Ji Tianxing gathered 500,000 troops and went to attack a demon fortress.
There are more than 600,000 troops stationed in that fortress. The terrain is steep and many defensive formations are deployed, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Moreover, a large amount of training resources and combat preparation materials are stored in the fortress.
After Ji Tianxing led his army to the fortress, he rushed in without any plan or strategy.
Anyway, he took the lead and no one could stop him.
Whether it was the layers of defensive formations or the tens of thousands of demon guards, they were all like paper in front of him.
All obstacles that hindered his progress were easily overcome by him.
With half a million soldiers following him, he only had to clean up the mess, which was very easy.
The battle only lasted two hours and then came to an end.
More than 90% of the more than 600,000 demon soldiers were wiped out, with only tens of thousands left to escape.
The human soldiers destroyed the fortress and seized a large amount of war supplies.
It's a pity that most of the cultivation resources are for the use of demons and cannot be used by humans.
Ji Tianxing then issued an order for the soldiers to destroy those resources on the spot.
After the battle, the army returned to Falling Star Valley to rest.
Ji Tianxing did not stop, and led 700,000 soldiers to attack another demon camp overnight.
Anyway, there are twelve generals following him and 1.2 million soldiers at his disposal.
That night, the night sky in the north of Luo Xing Valley was bright all night long, filled with fire that reached the sky.
The news of the fighting was carried thousands of miles away.
The brilliance of the stars falling from the sky, the sky wind and the fire are clearly visible thousands of miles away.
After dawn, the human soldiers returned in triumph.
There are still 600,000 soldiers left in the 700,000-strong army, and 100,000 soldiers have died on the battlefield.
But the demon camp was crushed, and the millions of demon troops were reduced to ashes and disappeared into thin air.
After two consecutive battles, the soldiers under Ji Tianxing were exhausted both physically and mentally and had to rest for a few days.
As for the demon army outside Falling Star Valley, only a few hundred thousand people remained, trapped in a military camp.
Those remaining demons have completely lost their fighting spirit and are in panic all day long, waiting for death to come.
All military morale and morale collapsed.
Ji Tianxing walked in Luo Xing Valley and meditated for three days.
Early on the fourth day, he led an army of 500,000 men and set off again.
This time, he wants to capture the last demon camp and resolve the crisis in Falling Star Valley.
However, when he led his army to arrive outside the demon camp, he found that the camp was silent and deserted.
He personally entered the demon camp and found that the camp was deserted, like a dead city.
Hundreds of thousands of demon troops have already evacuated.
All the training resources and military supplies in the camp were also taken away.
There are only a few houses and palaces left, as well as underground demon caves, and a large array that continues to operate.
Ji Tianxing was not surprised by this result.
He ordered the entire camp to be destroyed, and then led his troops back to Falling Star Valley.
After returning to Falling Star Valley, he sent a message to Chiyang Holy Emperor to inform him of the situation in Falling Star Valley.
Not long after the jade slip was sent out, a spiritual light flew from the sky and landed in Ji Tianxing's palm.
After the spiritual light dissipated, a message jade slip suddenly appeared.
Ji Tianxing was stunned for a moment, frowned and murmured: "Sage Emperor Chiyang replied to the message so quickly? It can't be so fast, it shouldn't be him."
After saying that, his spiritual consciousness invaded the jade slip and read the message inside.
The next moment, his expression changed and his eyebrows frowned fiercely.
