Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 718: A dead end, the mighty Hunan Army
Zhang Huaiyi spoke up and asked Buddha's army to help.

Actually, when Zhang Huaiyi said this, he was unsure, because the soldiers led by Zhang Dafoye were obviously frightened by those crazy poisonous people. Their legs were trembling and they could hardly hold the guns in their hands.

This is a bit useless!
After thinking for a while, Zhang Huaiyi continued, "Master Buddha, you don't need to exert too much effort, and you don't need them to fight to the death. You just need to stop them and prevent them from fleeing in large numbers. These things have been poisoned and have great strength. If they escape, I'm afraid they will cause great harm."

"Master Taoist, don't worry. This is the territory of Chang County. As officers and soldiers of Chang County, we must defend our homeland to the death." Zhang Dafoye said in a deep voice.

Then he looked at the soldiers behind him. These soldiers were elite soldiers recruited by him. They were well-trained and had been taken out to suppress bandits several times. They were not wimps who had never seen blood, but they were still frightened when they suddenly saw these poisonous people.

Zhang Dafoye walked up to the soldiers, took off his military cap, held a knife in one hand and a gun in the other, and said in a loud voice:
"Brothers, you have been with me for a while now. I want to ask you now, have I ever treated you unfairly?!"

"no!"

The soldiers responded in unison.

The reason why Zhang Dafoye, as the adjutant, was able to compete with Zuo Qian, the defense officer of Changjun, was because he had a group of soldiers under his command who only obeyed his orders, and the reason why this army obeyed his orders was because he was generous.

In order to make money, other warlords tried every means to impose various exorbitant taxes, exploit the people, embezzle military funds, cut army food and supplies, etc.

Zuo Qian was such a person. He often said, "Follow him well. If he eats, everyone will have soup." But in fact, he has been cutting military spending.

But Zhang Dafoye is different. The food, clothing and housing of his direct troops are strictly implemented according to the standards. Not only that, they also need extra meals and pay from time to time. In his words, brothers, don't just drink soup, you still need to eat some meat.

There were naturally some people who served as soldiers under the warlords and had lofty ideals, but the vast majority of them were just trying to make a living. After all, in that era, it was not easy to get enough food.

Now, following Zhang Dafoye not only can they have enough food to eat, but they can also have some spare money to send back home and buy a few pieces of land so that their families can also have the opportunity to have enough food to eat. Naturally, they are wholeheartedly devoted to him.

"So do you all regard me as a brother?" Zhang Dafoye asked loudly.

"Of course I consider him a brother!"

The people below answered in unison.

"Then are you all willing to live and die with me?" Zhang Dafoye asked loudly.

"willing!"

The crowd continued to respond loudly.

"Okay then!" Zhang Dafo walked towards the crowd, looking at their faces.

"Then we will fight side by side!" He held the gun, looked at the army, and shouted: "Where is the supervision team?"

Everyone was shocked.

A group of soldiers stood up, wearing conspicuous armbands that clearly indicated their identity as a supervisory team.

The supervision team is responsible for supervising soldiers in combat. They are usually at the rear of the team. During the battle, they punish soldiers who desert the battlefield or disobey orders, and they even have the power to execute them on the spot.

Zhang Dafo handed the gun in his hand to the captain of the supervision team and said, "From now on, anyone who retreats will be shot!"

Everyone's heart trembled. Although they could understand and they had already decided to fight to the death, they still felt uncomfortable when they heard these words.

But soon, this discomfort disappeared.

Zhang Dafoye continued, "And I will rush to the front and lead everyone to fight against those mutants. If I retreat, you will kill me!"

When the military law was announced, everyone was shocked. What was worrying was not the shortage of soldiers but the inequality. The respected generals were rushing to the front, so what did they have to be afraid of?

For a moment, the cheers were deafening and the crowd was excited.

Zhang Dafoye nodded, holding a big knife, and looked at the brothers of Jiumen: "Everyone, without further ado, let's take the lead!"

"Needless to say, no matter how powerful these things are, can they be more ferocious than the bloody corpses and rice dumplings in the tomb? Kill them!" The people from the Nine Gates shouted in unison.

"Where are you guys?" Zhang Dafo looked at Lu Jin, Lu Ci and the others: "Do you want to resist with us, or do you have other plans?"

Lu Jin said: "Of course we advance and retreat together."

Lu Ci said: "You guys fight head-on, I'll go around the periphery to prevent those Gu people from breaking out of the cage and escaping to the sides."

"I'm afraid you can't handle it all by yourself, so I'll come with you!" said Zhang Huaiyi.

As he was speaking, the golden light that enveloped Zengjia Town dimmed completely after flickering a few times. In an instant, the poisoned man was released from the cage.

The human mountain that was previously piled up to ten meters high by stacking people suddenly collapsed.

At such a height, even though these Gu people had been strengthened by the Gu, many of them still had their limbs broken. However, they were not afraid of the pain at all, and they crawled and squirmed towards the crowd.

Before, Lu Ci, Zhang Huaiyi and others were still worried that these poisoned people would run around after being released from the cages, but now they realize that they were worrying too much.

When these poisonous people saw living people, their eyes immediately lit up red and they ignored everything else. Not a single one of them left the team and escaped.

The Gu man had been strengthened by the poison and his speed was extremely fast. In just a moment, he had already rushed to a position two or three hundred steps away from the army formation.

Everyone could already see their hideous faces, and some soldiers with poor mental qualities were even shaking in their hands while holding their guns.

"Fire!"

Zhang Dafo yelled angrily.

"Bang bang bang..."

For a moment, the sound of gunfire was as dense as rain, rifles fired in turns, machine guns swept across, grenades were thrown wildly, and mortar shells drew an arc in the air, sparking heavily among the Gu group. Thick smoke swept across, and a large number of Gu people were blown away by the artillery fire.

Under the fierce artillery fire, even though Gu was extremely powerful and was not afraid of pain or life or death, he still could not break through the line of fire.

But there are a lot of them, and even if the body of the Gu man has been blown to pieces, the Gu worms in his brain are still alive and can drive the remains of the body to continue wriggling and launching attacks.

Even ordinary people, as long as their fighting will is strong enough and they are brave enough not to fear death, can break through the front line under the fire, not to mention these strengthened Gu people.

Under the continuous offensive of the Gu people, the defense line was collapsing rapidly. After all, their firepower was limited, and without the support of weapons such as Gatling and Maxim heavy machine guns, they could not stop them.

Not long after, the Gu people who were suppressed by the firepower pushed back like a huge wave. The battle had just begun, but it had already reached a white-hot stage.

The Hunan Army was definitely one of the most valiant armies. Before the battle, they couldn't help but have doubts when they saw the terrifying appearance of those Gu masters, but once the battle started, there was no ambiguity.

Seeing the Gu people rushing up, the soldiers in the front row threw away their empty rifles, picked up the swords behind them, and shouted angrily:
"If a person dies, his eggs will turn into the sky. If he doesn't die, he will become a god. Kill them!"

Before the Gu people attacked them, the people from the Nine Gates had already fought against the Gu people.

Some of them used talismans, some chanted spells, and some relied on their superb martial arts to block and kill the Gu people one by one. "Brothers, cast the talismans!" The Third Master of the Nine Gates shouted.

Most of the people in Jiumen are tomb robbers. There are generally four schools of tomb robbers, namely Mojin Xiaowei, Faqiu Tianguan, Banshan Daoren and Xiangling Lishi.

But up to now, there is not much prejudice against family background. Many tomb robbers have learned some methods from several schools. For example, Zhang Dafoye has practiced Fa Qiu Finger.

The upper talisman paper they mentioned refers to the Li Shi talisman used by the Xiling Li Shi sect.

Once this talisman is used, one will become extremely powerful and his skin will be as hard as iron. This will last for about an hour, but the aftereffect will be weakness for a few days.

This is the specialty of the Xiangling School. Once groups of Xiangling School masters use talismans and combine them with some other techniques, they can even hollow out a mountain overnight. That's why they got the nickname Xiangling Lishi.

I saw a group of people from the Nine Gates taking out talisman papers and sticking them on. Soon, their bodies swelled up and became like the strong men described in the books. Their faces were ferocious, like fierce ghosts.

Holding big knives, they rushed towards the Gu people violently, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

However, the opponent they faced was also a Gu man whose body was strengthened by the poison. Although they blocked the Gu man's fierce attack, they were unable to push him back.

Lu Jin, Lu Ci and others were also fighting. Although Lu Jin and Lu Ci were inconspicuous next to Zhang Zhiwei, they were quite extraordinary if they were placed in the martial arts world.

Lu Jin opened his hands and formed his fingers into swords. Two condensed sword lights extended from his fingertips. The sword lights were brilliant and clear, thin and thin, like two green snakes. When Lu Jin waved his swords, they looked like two streams of light, but they were filled with murderous intent.

He rushed among the poisoned people and circled around, the sharp sword light flashed across his head.

The Gu victim whose head was swept by the sword light seemed to be hit by a spell, and his violent movements stopped instantly.

Immediately afterwards, half of the head slid off, and the bodies of the poisoned people fell to the ground with a bang.

However, his killing was not a big deal to the five or six thousand Gu people, and more Gu people rushed up.

Lu Jin was about to continue charging, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw purple ripples suddenly appearing on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a series of fierce forces suddenly blasted out from the ground, along the legs of the poisoned people straight to their brains, smashing the soft poisonous insects inside into pieces.

Lu Ci knew that the weakness of these poisoned people was the poisonous worms in their brains. The poisonous worms were weak, so using Ruyi Zhen Jin to kill them would be a waste of their talent. Ordinary Ruyi Jin would be just right.

Lu Jin and Lu Ci worked together, one close and one far away, and quickly cleared a large area.

As for Tian Jinzhong, he followed everyone, using the Tiantong sword energy to remotely snipe the Gu man, while using the Golden Light Curse to protect everyone. Also, if he found someone injured, he would use the golden light to catch them back.

And Zhang Huaiyi has already rushed to the deepest part of the Gu man.

Zhang Huaiyi was a competitive person. If he did not make a move, he would make a splash. So he rushed to the front alone.

He was performing thunder magic, and lightning surrounded him as he dodged and moved around. The brilliant palm thunder was so bright that it hurt people's eyes.

Thunder cracked, lightning flashed and hit the Gu people one by one, making a "sizzling" sound. After a trembling, the Gu people's bodies turned black, their hair and beards stood up, and then they fell to the ground and could not get up.

If it was Zhang Zhiwei's thunder method, these poisoned people would naturally be reduced to ashes, but Zhang Huaiyi was different. It was not that his thunder method was unable to blast these poisoned people into pieces, but that he was intentionally controlling it.

He controlled the thunder magic to the strength of lightning, keeping it at a level that could just kill the poisonous insects in the person's brain. This intensity, at most, would make the person's hair stand up and his face turn black.

After all, his Qi was far less powerful than Zhang Zhiwei's. If he used too much force, he would be exhausted in no time.

At this moment, high in the sky, the black thunder that covered the sky was like a black sea of ​​clouds that spread out in all directions, trying to swallow up all the poisonous insects.

And inside the black sea of ​​clouds, thunder was rolling, and countless black lightning were jumping and shuttling through it.

The Great Gu Master's Meteoric Gu was deeply trapped in the Yin Thunder. He tried his best to manipulate and control the Gu to break through the blockade of the Yin Thunder and escape. However, every time he broke through, he was caught by Zhang Zhiwei again. The Great Gu Master was extremely anxious.

Zhang Zhiwei was still expanding the Yin Thunder to consume the poisonous insects outside, so he did not use his full strength to contract the Yin Thunder to kill the poisonous insects trapped in it.

At this time, the great poison master can actually control the poisonous insects outside to fly away quickly in all directions.

But he didn't dare, for he was worried that once the poisonous insect flew away completely, Zhang Zhiwei would use all his strength to retract the Yin Lei to kill the poisonous insect inside, where his real body was.

At the same time, he did not dare to let those poisonous insects fly too slowly. If all the poisonous insects outside were eaten, Zhang Zhiwei would also retract the Yin Lei.

What he could do now was to let the poisonous insect outside keep Zhang Zhiwei hanging at a distance, allowing Zhang Zhiwei to continuously expand the Yin Lei and consume his Qi. At the same time, he would look for an opportunity to blast open the blockade of the Yin Lei from the inside and escape.

"There is a chance, there must be a chance!" he said to himself.

At this moment, Zhang Zhiwei, who was constantly expanding the Yin Thunder, also discovered something strange.

He discovered that the poisonous insects outside were acting a little strangely.

At first, when the Great Gu Master transformed himself into poisonous insects and spread out to escape, although he reacted quickly and opened the Northern Border Cangtan to cover most of it, some fish still slipped through the net.

These fish that escaped the net showed super fast speed at the beginning, but soon they slowed down and kept a distance from him that was neither too close nor too far.

"This is a bit too deliberate. There are obviously a few poisonous insects, and they are very fast at the beginning. I was ready to give up using Yin Lei to deal with them."

"Instead, we let the nine-headed lion wander far away to chase and intercept it, but the opponent's speed suddenly slowed down."

"Does the Gu insect have endurance? It can't fly after an explosion?"

Zhang Zhiwei guessed wrong and there might be something fishy going on, so he planned to test it out.

Soon after, he controlled Cangtan in the northern border and stopped its expansion.

But a strange thing happened. The moment he stopped the Yin Thunder, the poisonous insects also stopped for a moment.

Zhang Zhiwei: "…………"

Suddenly, he understood something.

"try again!"

Immediately, he stopped expanding and began to contract the Yin Thunder.

And just at the moment when he retracted the Yin Thunder.

Those poisonous insects that were originally fleeing and were out of the range of the Yin Thunder suddenly stopped fleeing and instead rushed towards the Yin Thunder.

Zhang Zhiwei's big black face floating above the northern border cangtan looked down and said, "So he's inside!"
