Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 191

Qi turns to Qianyang, which means that the warrior has understood the Qi of pure Yang. The aura around his body is as strong as fire. He can shake hundreds of miles of land with a wave of his hand. It is so majestic that it cannot be seen easily.

The monstrous sea of ​​fire created by Gu Tianyun's thousands of sword energies was not only as beautiful as the sunset, but also powerful enough to shake the heavens and the earth. Not only did it disperse the curse sounds in the sky and force Zhan Taiqing back, it also shocked the entire audience and made everyone Everyone was stunned.

"A warrior in the Yin-Yang Holy Realm is like a god!"

"This is beyond the scope of martial arts, right? How can you be so strong?"

"No, on the night of the Rakshasa Festival, the battle between Ji Yanzhi and the Blood Demon was even stronger than this, but those two figures are already powerful in the Broken Realm!"

"No wonder, no wonder Lu Jianshi gathered his men. As long as the sword head is there, Wanyang County cannot lose it. Brothers, we will definitely be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive!"

"Yes, nine days have passed. Reinforcements will definitely arrive soon."

…………

It is worth noting that the remaining three thousand troops in Wanyang County had all withdrawn from Tongling before, so they were not much shocked by the magnificent battle scene in front of them. Only the disciples of Tianding Sect and those in the city The casual cultivator was shocked to the core at this moment and let out a series of exclamations.

Especially when they saw Zhan Taiqing, dressed in white, who seemed to be frightened away by Gu Tianyun, and retreated towards the city wall, the morale of the people below was immediately boosted to the extreme, and they let out a wave of exclamations.

"Return!"

"They're back."

"Hahahaha, the Yongzhou dog is scared."

"The sword head is invincible!"

I don’t know who was the first to shout out “Invincible with sword head, defend the county to the death”. These eight words obviously fit everyone’s hearts at this moment, so a second, third, and fourth followed... …

The sword head is invincible... The sword head is invincible... The sword head is invincible...

The defenders in the county city were roaring and the tsunami was roaring for a while. People's emotions were all mobilized by the majestic force of Gu Tianyun's sword to repel the enemy, and they swelled to the extreme in an instant. The three thousand silver-armored troops in the front row were probably the defenders in the past few days. The pressure on the city was too great, everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs and their faces were red. Some people even raised their swords towards the city wall, as if they had the urge to counterattack.

As the saying goes, the soldiers guarding the city were in high spirits. On the contrary, the Yongzhou Army on the city wall and outside the city were like frost beating eggplants at this moment, and their morale dropped instantly.

Gu Tianyun retracted his sword, his eyes narrowed slightly, showing a hint of confusion, but when he saw the roar of the people below and the morale that was quickly boosted, he still smiled slightly.

"The sword head's magical power is unparalleled, and my subordinates admire it greatly!"

When Lu Guanqing saw Zhan Taiqing retreating, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart. He flew up into the air and bowed to Gu Tianyun, his voice extremely excited.

This sentence definitely comes from the heart. If he hadn't been a sword wielder for a long time, he had developed some pride. In the past, he would have knelt down directly in front of Gu Tianyun at this moment.

To be fair, guarding Wanyang County is naturally what the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and even everyone with an interest in Xuzhou, hopes to see. However, the problem is that the one with the greatest immediate interests is him, the sword wielder.

If Wanyang County is conquered by Yongzhou, he will be regarded as a swordsman and will be held accountable by the Holy Sect. How can he, who is used to being domineering in Wanyang County, endure it? Therefore, Gu Tianyun This sword was crucial to his encouragement.

If he can block Zhan Taiqing, or make Zhan Taiqing dare not act rashly, the possibility of the Yongzhou army forcibly attacking the city will be even smaller. As long as he can hold on until reinforcements arrive and keep Wanyang County, he, the sword wielder, can continue to do it. Not only that, if he cooperates with the reinforcements inside and outside and inflicts heavy losses on the Yongzhou army outside, he, Lu Guanqing, might be able to gain a lot of credit.

These thoughts came to Lu Guanqing's mind, and his eyes suddenly flashed with passion...

"Zhan Taiqing is just retreating temporarily. Don't be careless. In the past few days, the defenders must patrol around the clock, especially at night. They must arrange manpower to guard them. If there is any change, they must counterattack immediately. They must not be given any chance to capture the city wall. .”

"Subordinates obey!"

Gu Tianyun looked at the vast army outside the city, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes. Zhan Taiqing was indeed repelled by him just now, but he would not be defeated like this, and she would not let the army attack the city with him. It was obvious that A test of his strength, he would never believe it if there was no follow-up action.

However, he still has some confidence in his own strength.

Zhan Taiqing had only one way to break the city, and that was to attack by force regardless of casualties, but that would just fulfill his wish. Once the 17 troops suffered too many casualties, it would not be a concern, and they would not even need the Holy Spirit. Zong's army, as long as reinforcements from Longxiang and Yangping counties are needed, can be dealt with by then.

………………

Outside the city, the demon sect’s camp

"Just wait outside!"

Han Feng and other experts thought that Zhan Taiqing had suffered a small defeat and wanted to go back to the camp to prepare for the next battle. Unexpectedly, they followed him to the door. Zhan Taiqing refused to let them in, and they all suddenly showed doubts.

Zhan Taiqing ignored them and just walked in alone...

"Then Hou Yuxiao seems to be inside, right? Does the master trust this person too much and still want to discuss with him without telling us?"

The person who spoke was an ordinary grandmaster. Peng Yuhu and Han Feng frowned when they heard this. It was obvious that these words had reached their hearts.

Five days ago, Zhan Taiqing held a discussion with Hou Yuxiao alone. Although they did not know the content, judging from the situation at hand, Zhan Taiqing should have had some plans, and it was related to Hou Yuxiao. It is said that they were originally going to listen to Zhan Taiqing. Yes, but being kept in the dark made me feel a little uncomfortable.

Especially the nine Han Feng people are direct descendants of Zhan Taiqing...

"Master Peng, why didn't you see Brother Ling today?"

Han Feng glanced around and suddenly noticed that only two of the three major commanders beside Peng Yuhu were left, and he immediately asked.

When he asked, everyone's attention turned to Peng Yuhu. When they saw that only Dong Yuxuan and Hong Bo were left, doubts appeared on their faces.

Where did Peng Yucheng, Peng Yuhu's younger brother, the leader of the three capitals of Xingnan Prefecture, go?
"Did you just find out today? My clan brother received the master's military order and left four nights ago with a group of troops. As for where he went, I don't know!"

Peng Yuhu shook his head, as if he was a little surprised at everyone's slowness, but he didn't know the last sentence, and he obviously had a helpless tone.

Peng Yucheng did say hello to him when he left, but he just said it was the master's military order and disappeared. He didn't tell him where he was going or what he was going to do.

In fact, after the battle between Zhan Taiqing and Gu Tianyun just now, Peng Yuhu roughly guessed where Peng Yucheng had gone. However, since the master didn't say anything, there was no need for him to be clever. It was better to just shut up.

When Han Feng heard his words, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the tents around him. After careful observation, his pupils shrank.

Only now did he realize that although the number of camps outside the city had not decreased, the number of soldiers coming and going had significantly shrunk. In other words, Peng Yucheng really left with a group of troops.

Thinking of the battle between Zhan Taiqing and Gu Tianyun just now, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Han Feng's mind, his shoulders shook, and he suddenly realized.

………………

inside the tent
When Hou Yuxiao saw Zhan Taiqing walking in, he immediately bowed and saluted.

"Meet the master!"

Zhan Taiqing unceremoniously took the chair and asked, "How long will it take?"

Hou Yuxiao pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and replied: "Longxiang County is more than three hundred miles away from here. An army of more than 350 people marches at about seventy miles a day. After getting the news, it will take at least four days to arrive. Above; Yangping County is further away, more than [-] miles away, and takes at least five days.

They sent out the people asking for help on the evening of the fourth day of August. The two of them rode high-grade horses that traveled thousands of miles a day. Even if the two counties moved quickly, they would immediately order their troops to set off after receiving the news on the fifth day of August. It is expected that eight On the tenth day of the first lunar month, that is, tomorrow, it will almost arrive. "

After saying this, Hou Yuxiao paused for a moment and continued: "There may be an error in the arrival time of these two counties, but it should not exceed two days. Our Hou family's [-] troops have already matched Peng Dutong's [-] troops. The army will return, and if everything goes well, my subordinates will definitely be able to bring good news to the master by August [-]th at the latest!"

Hou Yuxiao's tone was a little exciting. According to his current cultivation strength, he was originally not qualified to participate in such a holy land-level competition. However, he couldn't stand Zhan Taiqing's words "rewards based on merit", so he was tempted. .

There are nine counties in Guangling Prefecture. Although he does not know what the specific strategic goals of the Rakshasa Holy Cult are to achieve when they invade Xuzhou this time, even if they only conquer the territory of the prefecture, as long as they allocate one or two counties to the Hou family, it will be enough for him. It is said that he has made a lot of money.

Don’t you see, he has narrowly escaped death at the hands of those descendants of the Holy Land countless times for the sake of a small Zhaoyang County; Tongling County was able to succeed, to be honest, it was more or less due to luck. Looking back now, on the night of the Rakshasa Festival, ordinary people If one of the powerful ones loses control, or if Miss Hong's feelings for Lao Wu are not that deep, then the Hou family will probably be doomed.

As long as he helps the Rakshasa Holy Cult win this battle, even if Zhan Taiqing discounts his own credit, even if he only allocates one county to himself, it will be a huge benefit to the Hou family.

What's more important is the hatred of the Ten Thousand Swords Saint Sect in this battle.Everyone will focus on the Rakshasa Holy Cult. He, a small third-rate clan of the Hou family, will not attract any attention at all. Without hatred, he can make a big difference with his small things. Wouldn't Hou Yuxiao be a fool if he doesn't do this kind of business?

So five days ago, when Zhan Taiqing offered this bait, Hou Yuxiao accepted it without even thinking.

The idea he gave Zhan Taiqing was very simple, just four words:

Help around the point!

Zhan Taiqing and others attach great importance to Wanyang County. Of course, this city is indeed very important because it is the first city in the western border of Xuzhou. Taking it will not only boost one's own morale, but also cause a blow. Xuzhou's morale can have an effect.

This is also the reason why Gu Tianyun decided to defend Wanyang County after retreating from Tongling. He and Zhan Taiqing also came up with the idea to defend the city, at least for the first wave, which would thwart the momentum of the Demon Sect and prepare the ground for the next battle. Make preparations.

This is what the authorities are obsessed with, but the bystanders are clear about!

In Hou Yuxiao's view, whether the city can be captured is not that important at all. This war between the two states is unlikely to end in the short term. In this case, the most important principle in the war is to attack the opponent's effective forces and attack the city. Instead, the village can be placed at the back.

Gu Tianyun feels that the only way he can defend Wanyang County is that the reinforcements from Longxiang County and Yangping County will come soon. With his own strength and the protective sword formation, he has the confidence to resist the Demon Cult army, or in other words, as long as Zhan Taiqing dared to attack the city by force. He was confident enough that he could cause enough losses to the Demon Cult army and affect the subsequent battle.

In this case, why bother surrounding a city that is unwilling to attack? It is better to use Wanyang County as a bait and attack the reinforcements coming from other places first. In the end, both Longxiang County and Yangping County will be attacked. Those two cities are also protected. For the sword formation, instead of attacking the city then, it would be better to eliminate the living forces now to save trouble.

"In that case, then hurry up and prepare. Peng Dutong and I have already agreed that you will control the army. I am waiting for good news about you!"

Zhan Taiqing's words interrupted Hou Yuxiao's thoughts, and he didn't say anything more. He just nodded, turned around respectfully, and walked out of the tent.

Lao Si and Lao Wu set out to find Hou Yucheng five days ago and asked him to lead the army to the official road in the east. Peng Yucheng left at night four days ago. The two armies should have turned around by now. Fifth, he knew his intentions and had already made arrangements. All he had to do now was go find them.

Although there are a total of [-] troops on our side, and there are many experts, they are reinforcements from a county after all. Besides, the second, fourth, and fifth are all here. If something happens, there is no place to regret it. I will do it myself. In the past, it was better to be more cautious.

After Hou Yuxiao left the camp, he just nodded with Peng Yuhu and Han Feng, flew across the air without saying anything, and galloped towards the east.

........................

The official road to the east of Wanyang County extends for about fifty miles. There is a section of high mountain with an altitude of more than 300 meters. The low part of the mountain is only two or three meters, and the top is more than [-] meters. It looks towering into the clouds and is quite majestic. .

The official road happened to pass through a deep valley in the mountains.

"Although Wanyang and Longxiang counties are bordering each other, one county is in the east and the other is in the west, so the distance is more than 300 miles. The overall terrain of Longxiang County is higher than that of Wanyang County. There is a three-four-story building at the junction of the two counties. The ten-mile tall mountain range is high in the east and low in the west. From a distance, it looks like a giant looking up at Longxiang County, so it was named Wanglong Mountain long ago!

The high mountain we are standing on now should be the starting point of Wanglong Mountain, and it also belongs to the Wanglong Mountain area. If we want to see the main body, we have to walk at least 30 miles further! "

At the top of the mountain, Wang Gong told everyone about the origin of Wanglong Mountain while looking east in the distance with complicated expressions in his eyes.

He really didn't expect that he would be able to return to Longxiang County in his lifetime and walk on the same official road that he had walked when he was an escort at Fuwei Escort Agency.

Next to him, there were more than a dozen people standing, including Hou Yucheng, Hou Yujie, and Hou Yuduan. Hou Fei, Hou Ying, Hou Cun, and many Gang Qi realm warriors from the Hou family were also present.

In addition to these people, there was also a burly man wearing black armor and holding a sharp sword, with a fighting spirit all over his body.

"Peng Dutong, has the army already laid an ambush?"

Hou Yuduan looked down at the end of the official road below, with a slight coldness in his eyes, and turned around to ask the burly and strong man, with a slightly chilling tone.
