1215. Do Cowards Dare to Fight?
The new emperor's decree was promulgated.
Zhou Kefu, the old commander of Huangjiya and a powerful Jinxian-level man, was the commander-in-chief, and Mu Mu, the commander of the Imperial Guards, was the vanguard. They commanded an army of 100,000 immortals and 500,000 sky-breaking puppets. They headed for the Western Territory of the Divine Dynasty and gathered together with the remnants of the Western Territory, about ten people. Around ten thousand people worked together to fight against the invasion of Dongxuan Immortal Sect.
The war entered its second phase.
Huangjiya's tough response was somewhat beyond the expectations of all parties.
In less than a day, the Western Expeditionary Army arrived at Sunset City, the frontline.
There are ten cities in the western border of Huangji Cliff.
Sunset City is located in the middle of the Western Region.
With the fall of the six border cities including Liufeng, Taiping, and Hancheng, Sunset City, which was originally relatively inland, became the frontline.
The defeated armies in the Western Region also gathered in the city.
As the vanguard general, Li Mu entered the city two hours in advance.
By the time Zhou Kefu's follow-up army arrived, the city's reorganization had been completed.
Zhou Kefu is a veteran golden immortal of Huangji Cliff. He has served three generations of emperors in the royal family. He has high prestige in the military and political system of the Huangji Cliff Dynasty and is familiar with military affairs.
Zhou Kefu didn't have much favorable impression of Li Mu.
In his opinion, Li Mu was just a little true immortal, but he had the good fortune to stand in the Eighth Prince's camp during the competition for the rightful son, and was able to rise to the heights of "one man can ascend to heaven".
Old nobles like Zhou Kefu always have a feeling of rejection in their hearts towards the new rich.
Therefore, Li Mu did not receive much reuse.
After Zhou Kefu entered the city, the military and political affairs of all parties were controlled by his henchmen.
Li Mu, the pioneer general, was left out in the cold.
As Zhou Kefu issued a series of orders, the originally decadent morale in Sunset City was quickly improved, and the chaotic situation was also changed.
War drums sound.
The old commander raised his account and ordered his generals to gather together.
Who would have thought that as soon as the generals gathered in the commander's tent, and before Zhou Kefu could speak his words, thunderous drums of war could be heard outside the city, and then the herald rushed over.
"Report..."
"Commander, the Dongxuan Immortal Sect's army is inviting a battle outside the city."
The herald dropped to one knee.
Zhou Kefu raised his silver-white sword eyebrows and said with a sneer: "You've come just in time. All the generals will go to battle with me."
Dozens of generals, including Li Mu, boarded the west gate tower of Sunset City together.
Li Mu's position was at the edge.
He was totally fine with it.
Outside the city, the blue-shirted army at Dongxuan Immortal Gate covered the sky and the sun.
During the Immortal Collapse Era, the Immortal World was under the loose rule of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, which was somewhat similar to the Three Kingdoms era on earth. Various parties were fighting, wars were raging, and the signs of the military formation of the Immortal Dao forces were obvious.
The two major forces competed for territory, cities, resources, and the population of the immortal people.
Therefore, there are few massacres and destructive military attacks.
There are certain rules for the two armies to compete.
These rules are either established by convention or promulgated by the Immortal Court of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
When fighting within the corresponding rules, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will rarely interfere.
But if one party breaks the rules, what awaits it will be ruthless suppression and conquest by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
"Haha, I heard that old dog Zhou Kefu came in person, do you dare to show up and fight?"
Among the Dongxuan Immortal Sect's army, a blue Xuange came from the sky and stopped within a kilometer of the city gate. On Xuange's bridge, hundreds of strong men from the Dongxuan Immortal Sect were densely packed. Stand.
The leader is Wei Xianshan, the great elder of Dongxuan Immortal Sect, a well-known veteran Jinxian in Yuechuan Mansion.
He is also the great-grandfather of Wei Rulong and Wei Ruhu.
Zhou Kefu was dressed in battle armor, and his aura spread out, like a god and demon, floating up from the city wall, standing in the void, and sneered: "Wei Xianshan, your great-grandson died at a young age. A man with white hair will give a gift to a man with black hair." Isn’t it a good feeling to be a human being? If you don’t just stay at home and wait for the end of your life, why don’t you want to bury these old bones under Sunset City?”
When Li Mu heard this, he looked at Zhou Kefu with suspicion.
People are always venomous.
They are all veteran golden immortals with hot tempers. They are quite rude and full of explosiveness when they speak.
"Old dog Zhou, you need to use your words. When I step on your Huangji cliff, I will wipe out your entire Zhou family... Come on, who will chop off the head of old dog Zhou Zhou with me?"
Wei Xianshan shouted loudly.
"Elder, my disciple Liang Zhen is willing to fight in the first battle."
A middle-aged disciple of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect, with an ordinary face, seems to be an ordinary disciple. He carries an immortal sword on his back and wears a green immortal clothes. His cultivation level is quite good. He is about the cultivation level of a high-level true immortal. He leaps up from Xuan Ge. , arrived in mid-air, pointing the sword at Sunset City.
Liang Zhenpian touched the sword with his finger.
Phew!
Several rays of sword light were like flying fire meteors, shooting directly at Zhou Kefu.
Zhou Kefu smiled coldly and moved back to the enemy tower in Sunset City.
What kind of status is he, how can he fight with this junior?
"Which general killed this little Dongxuan thief for me?" He said calmly.
When the two armies are facing each other, how can the coach take action easily?
The masters under his command fought each other first, striving to kill the enemy and boost their morale.
"The last general, Liu Ba Shi, is willing to go."
A bald general wearing purple armor, holding a giant ax in his hand, shouted for battle.
"Okay, let's beat the drum and cheer for General Liu."
Zhou Kefu nodded with satisfaction.
Liu Ba Shi's figure soared into the sky, turning into a streak of purple light. He waved his battle ax, accompanied by wind and thunder, and rushed straight towards Dongxuan Immortal Gate Liang Zhen.
Boom boom boom!
The battle between the two powerful immortals started instantly.
This is the first time Li Mu has seen the conquest and fighting methods between different forces in the fairy world.
Deja vu.
On earth, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many wars are described. Generals will clash in front of the two armies, and their personal bravery will determine the direction of the balance on the battlefield.
The more famous ones are about Wu Sheng warming wine and beheading Hua Xiong, the three heroes of Hulao Pass fighting Lu Bu, and later about beheading Yan Liang and Wen Chou, etc., which are quite legendary.
Unexpectedly, the battle between the armies in the immortal world would take a similar form.
This made Li Mu quite excited and curious.
But if you think carefully, it makes sense for such a rule to appear.
Because compared to the Three Kingdoms in the Troubled Times, in the fairy world in the Immortal Collapse Era, the strength of the monks, personal bravery and cultivation had a greater influence on the war.
A truly top Immortal Powerhouse can wipe out a force with one action, and can defeat an Immortal Army by himself.
However, this is something that only happens based on the disparity in strength between the two sides.
Forces such as Dongxuan Immortal Sect and Huangji Cliff are about the same strength as each other. Golden Immortal level Immortal powerhouses are relatively rare and belong to the strategic deterrence level. It is difficult for one person to completely crush the other side.
In this way, when the two armies are fighting, the outcome of the 'one-on-one' battle between the top powers will have a special significance for the morale of the two armies and the outcome of the war.
boom!
"ah……"
In the sky, there was a scream and blood rain flew.
Li Mu looked up and saw a big ax falling into the void.
The sword light penetrated Liu Ba Shi's body and chopped him into pieces. Even his soul could not escape and he died in the void on the spot.
At the head of Sunset City, the generals of Huangji Cliff all had shocked expressions on their faces.
Zhou Kefu's silver eyebrows raised.
This result surprised him.
The reason why Liu Bashi was agreed to fight just now is because Liu Bashi and Liang Zhen have similar cultivation levels, both are at the peak of true immortals. Liu Bashi is also one of the fierce generals of Huangji Cliff, and his combat power is higher than what he appears to be. He is stronger and has been famous for a long time. He has a great chance of winning against Liang Zhen.
Zhou Kefu went there with the goal of winning the first battle and restoring the morale of the remaining troops in Sunset City.
who knows……
Self-defeating.
What a mistake.
Zhou Kefu's eyes became serious.
"Hahahaha, Zhou Laogou, is my sword from the Dongxuan Immortal Sect good or not?"
On top of Xuan Ge, Wei Xianshan laughed.
After all, Zhou Kefu is a veteran who has seen hardships. He calmed down instantly and said without looking back: "Which general can kill Liang Zhen for me and avenge General Liu?"
"Marshal, the general is willing to go."
A rather young general with silver armor and silver spear came out.
Zhou Kefu glanced at it, with a smile on his face: "Okay, if General Zhao is willing to take action, he will definitely return in triumph, hahaha, very good."
Silver Spear Zhao Rulong.
This young man is a rare genius who emerged this year in the Huangji Cliff army. He has practiced for less than five hundred years. At a young age, he is already on the verge of peeking into the Golden Immortal realm. He is invincible in the same realm. He has a 'Silver Spear' The "Little God of War" has a long-standing reputation.
With Zhao Rulong taking action, Zhou Kefu was quite relieved.
He believed that he would be able to win this second battle.
call out!
The silver spear is like electricity, shooting into the void.
In the sky, a fierce battle breaks out again.
But the battle did not end well, and there was another bloody storm, spilling into the void.
The silver spear was a third-grade immortal weapon, but it was chopped into pieces. Zhao Rulong's fate was like that of Liu Baoshi, who was crushed by the sword light of Liang Zhen of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect. His soul could not escape, and he died without a burial. The ground is gone.
"What?"
"This...General Zhao is actually not that low?"
"How could this happen?"
"The strength of an unknown disciple of Dongxuan Immortal Sect is actually so strong?"
Under the enemy tower at the west gate of Sunset City, the Huangjiya generals' expressions changed wildly when they saw this result. They were shocked and frightened.
Zhao Rulong can be regarded as a hidden trump card of the Western Expedition Army.
He was actually killed by Shihe.
This is no longer just as simple as a bad start.
Defeating two battles in a row and losing two True Immortal-level experts in a row not only shook the morale of the army, but also dealt a huge blow and loss to the strength of the Western Expeditionary Army.
It is easy to have a thousand armies, but it is difficult to find a general.
What to do next?
Everyone has already seen that Liang Zhen, who is leading the charge from the Dongxuan Immortal Sect, is not an easy man to defeat. If he is not a powerful person at the Golden Immortal level, he will never be able to defeat him.
But the problem is that the cultivation level shown by Liang Zhen is just that of a true fairyland.
A true immortal from the Dongxuan Immortal Sect forced Huangjiya Golden Immortal to take action. Even if he won, it would not mean much, and he would be ridiculed.
Zhou Kefu's silver eyebrows twitched, and he was extremely angry.
Only then did he realize that he had been careless.
This Liang Zhen must be the core disciple secretly trained by the Dongxuan Immortal Sect. His hidden trump card was that he used his tricks as soon as he came up and caught the Huangjiya army by surprise.
How to save the situation?
Zhou Kefu had been weighing the situation in his mind for countless years, but for a moment he couldn't find a better candidate.
"Hahahahaha, Zhou Laogou, is there no one left? Huangji Cliff is at the end of the road, and you are just a withered bone in the grave. Within three days, I will break down Sunset City and wipe out all the 200,000 remnants of your army in the city. "
On Xuange, Wei Xianshan laughed wildly.
In the void, Liang Zhen, who had won two battles in a row, also had a look of disdain and contempt on his face.
He pointed the fairy sword in his hand at the Huangjiya generals on the city gate one by one, and said calmly: "You, you... you... none of you can beat them?"
The tip of his sword pointed at each other one by one, and finally pointed at Li Mu from a distance.
"Seeing that you are young and have a high official rank, I think the foolish emperor who came to Huangji Cliff also trusts you quite a lot. Haha, don't you even have the courage to come up and fight to repay your kindness? What a pitiful coward!"
He didn't know Li Mu.
But this did not prevent him from making Li Mu the target of ridicule.
Because in his eyes, everyone standing on this tower, except Zhou Kefu, a veteran golden immortal, was like a chicken or a dog, completely vulnerable to a blow.
