Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In Fengqian Valley, in the meeting hall, everyone entered the inner room. As soon as Jiang Huan sat down, a man hurried in from outside. He bowed and said, "Senior Jiang, the rebels have gathered again and have surrounded the formation. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the palace changed their minds. They finally fought hard to repel the rebels, and then entered the formation to attack the rebels. After this fierce battle, the spiritual power loss in everyone's body was very small. I thought it would be okay. Delay the rebels' breakout for a while.

Unexpectedly, most of the rebels surrounded them again so quickly, without giving them any chance to breathe.

Tang Ning was also worried. Looking at the situation, it was very difficult to hold this formation. Once the army was defeated, all the rewards for meritorious service gained before would be cancelled, and everyone would be demoted one level. He had worked so hard and fought so hard to win. Isn't his service all in vain?

He was unwilling and helpless.

Jiang Huan turned over the formation disk in his hand and fiddled with it a few times. The pictures on it were flowing through each other. He saw that outside the billowing yellow mist, the rebel warships were surrounding him. His expression became more and more serious, and he waved his hands for a while. : "You go first! Continue to observe, and we will notify you at any time if there are any changes in the rebels."

"Yes." The man took the order and left.

Chen Ying and Tian Jian'an below looked very ugly. They looked at each other. Chen Ying said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, I have to wait and try my best. It's just that we are outnumbered. I think we can't hold this formation, so we should retreat." plan, otherwise it will be too late once the formation is broken!"

"Yes!" Tian Jian'an agreed: "Now we have lost nearly half of our troops, two of the five god-transformation monks have been killed in the battle, and now we are running out of ammunition and food. We also know the column's instructions, but we are really outnumbered.

"As the saying goes, if you stay in the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. Even if the column is demoted, it will only be a demotion at most. There will still be a chance to make meritorious service in the future. If you continue to stay here, you will lose your life sooner or later."

Jiang Huan sighed slightly: "I didn't know that everyone was exhausted, but the column issued a strict order not to retreat privately."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, with all due respect, I can't control that much now. I just want to ask, which is more important, our lives or the punishment of the coalition forces." Tian Jianan said, he had been injured in the previous fierce battle, so he objected The most intense.

Jiang Huan pondered for a while: "Fellow Daoist Tian, ​​how is your injury?"

Tian Jianan said angrily: "If we want to fight against the rebels again, this fate will be lost."

"Let's do this! Fellow Daoist Xun and Fellow Daoist Chen, let's go talk to the camp again and report the situation truthfully. Unless we don't want to do our best to defend, we are indeed outnumbered and unable to do anything. At that time, the two fellow Daoists will also help to speak. ”

"Okay." They both responded in unison.

"Let's go!" The three of them stood up and left the meeting hall, and fled away.

Tang Ning and others stood in the hall and looked at each other in silence, with heavy expressions on their faces.

"I don't know if the camp will allow us to retreat." After a while, someone sighed and said, it was Yin Quan, the manager of the third brigade.

No one answered the call in the hall, and the atmosphere was eerily silent.

Tang Ning was also very conflicted at this moment. On the one hand, he was reluctant to let go of the meritorious service he had worked so hard to achieve, but on the other hand, he was worried about the current situation. As Xun Xun said, now he has exhausted all his ammunition. Food is at the point of depletion.

If we don't retreat, once the rebels break the formation, everyone might die like this.

The best result is of course that the camp allows the regiment to withdraw from the Fengqiangu position, so that they can retreat safely without taking any responsibility.

But this possibility is really slim. The column had already given strict orders not to evacuate privately. The words had already been released, and it was unlikely that they would be taken back after less than an hour.

From the perspective of the column, they don't care about the life and death of just half of the regiment in Fengqian Valley. It doesn't matter even if the last man is wiped out, the most important thing is to hold the position here and not let the rebels take their hands free. Go and support Xuanying Ting.

The atmosphere in the hall was very depressing, no one spoke, and everyone was silent with different thoughts.

After a while, footsteps sounded outside, and Jiang Huan and three others strode in.

The three of them took their seats, but before they could speak, Meng Xuan came in from the outside and said, "Senior Jiang, most of the rebels have entered the formation. Judging from the situation, they are going to make a desperate move."

After hearing this, Jiang Huan hurriedly took out the formation disk from his storage bag and fiddled with it a few times. The screen on it flowed, and he saw that most of the rebels including the Wind Spirit Ship and the Xuanling Ship sailed into the yellow mist. His expression darkened and he waved his hand: "I understand, you go ahead!"

"Yes." Meng Xuan nodded and was about to go back.

Jiang Huan called him again: "Wait a minute."

"Senior, do you have any other instructions?"

"Given the current progress of the rebels in breaking the formation, how long can the formation last?"

Meng Xuan said: "Since the previous seniors entered the formation to attack and successfully killed the rebel commander who broke the formation, the rebels in the formation are now in a dilemma. They have only locked down three positions and two others. not sure yet."

"Therefore, the rebels only started to attack these three positions. If the rebels blindly break the formation, the effect will be twice the attack and half the attack. Based on this efficiency, the formation can still hold on for an hour or two."

"But the rebel forces have all entered the formation. If there are people among them who are proficient in formations and lock the other two positions, and the strength of breaking the formation is greatly increased, I am afraid they will not be able to hold on for a quarter of an hour."

"A quarter of an hour?" Jiang Huan frowned.

"Young man, I don't know if you should say something or not?"

"Fellow Taoist Meng, if you have any suggestions, just ask."

"Looking at this situation, it is difficult to hold on to this formation any longer. Seniors should plan a retreat early."

"To be honest, Daoyou Chen and I, Daoyou Xun, have just reported it to the camp. The camp replied, asking us to hold on for a while. The rebels who besieged Xuanying Pavilion suffered heavy casualties and have gradually retreated. The coalition forces are chasing the retreating rebels. As long as we hold on for a while, reinforcements will arrive soon. "

"If we retreat at this time, the column will be defeated and our headquarters will be disposed of. Not only will we not receive any meritorious rewards, but everyone will be demoted one level."

When everyone heard this, they felt mixed emotions and expressions. Tang Ning raised her eyes and saw that Chen Ying and Tian Jian'an both had slightly furrowed brows. Like everyone else, they were very conflicted.

The two of them had previously spoken out fiercely against continuing to hold on to this formation, but now they remained silent, obviously hesitating in their hearts.

The hall fell into silence, and no one answered. Jiang Huan looked at the two of them: "Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Tian, ​​what suggestions do you have?"

Chen Ying coughed slightly: "It's up to fellow Daoist Jiang to make the decision!"

"Where is Fellow Daoist Tian?" Tian Jian'an glanced at Chen Ying and whispered: "It would be best if I could hold on to this formation, but I am injured now and am really unable to fight the enemy anymore. As for whether to retreat or advance, I will wait. Follow Daoyou Jiang’s instructions.”

"In this case, in my opinion, we still have to listen to the orders from above. Since we can hold on to the camp for a while longer, we have no choice but to grit our teeth and hold on. I intend to hold on until the last moment when the formation is breached."

As soon as Jiang Huan finished speaking, Meng Xuan answered: "This junior has the guts to make a suggestion."

"Fellow Taoist, please tell me."

"The three seniors and fellow Taoists have fought hard for several times, but now they are at the end of their strength. It is no longer appropriate to fight head-on with the rebels. For the current plan, we can only rely on the large formation to hold fast and wait for reinforcements. However, there is currently no one in the formation, and the power is If the three seniors are willing to sit in the formation, they can fully exert the power of the formation and hinder the rebels from breaking the formation to a certain extent. I would like to invite the three seniors to control it together. Big array.”

"I agree." Tian Jian'an was the first to respond: "What Fellow Taoist Meng said is true. For the current plan, we can only rely on the formation to deal with it."

Jiang Huan looked at Chen Ying: "Fellow Daoist Chen, what do you mean?"

Chen Ying nodded and said: "We have fought several times, but the spiritual power in our bodies has not yet recovered. Fellow Daoist Kuang Xun is injured, and there are new troops in the rebel formation. Head-on confrontation is undoubtedly the way to death. The only way is to rely on the large formation." , It’s only a moment that can be delayed!”

"Well, since the two fellow Taoists think this method is very good, let's set off immediately!" Jiang Huan stood up and said, and the group left the hall.

"You go to the warship to assemble first and wait for the next order."

"Yes." Everyone responded, the light flew up, and they returned to the Fengling ship one after another.

Less than half an hour later, I suddenly saw several rays of light rising into the sky from the yellow mist, and the light shot straight into the sky.

There was a loud rumbling sound, as if the sky and the earth were shattering, but the mountains and rocks were shattered, earth and rocks were flying all over the sky, and several cracks on the ground spread, extending to hundreds of miles away. The ground for hundreds of miles around was cracked into several pieces, and deep holes were formed inside. bottom gap.

In the distance, the formation altar shattered, and the huge flying formation flags of various colors broke into several pieces and collapsed suddenly.

Wherever the light swept across, just like the sun melting snow, the diffuse yellow mist instantly dissipated without a trace.

Tang Ning stood on the deck of the Wind Spirit Ship. Seeing such a strange phenomenon, she was filled with fear and fear.

"The formation has been breached." At this time, no one knew who was the first person on the Fengling ship to shout, which immediately caused everyone on the ship to panic.

"The formation has been breached."

"The rebels are coming out."

"Run away."

"Go quickly."

Loud shouts and shouts were heard one after another. The commotion was not over yet. A group of fleeing lights were seen coming from a distance. The first three people were Jiang Huan, Chen Ying, and Tian Jianan, followed by more than ten people. A monk of the flag formation.
