One of the commanders beside Li Zheng said to Li Zheng: "General, I am waiting on the sidelines to watch the battle. If the leader of the country Yu Wenxian fails in the battle, how should I explain to the leader of the country?"

Li Zheng said: "Such a situation will not happen. Lord Yu Wenxian is now confident of victory. Victory is only a matter of time. The Immortal Golden Immortal is facing the threat of a large army from the Qilin Kingdom and does not dare to easily mobilize the army to assist the defenders of Gonggong City. This battle is destined to end with the victory of King Yu Wenxian."

Li Zheng's explanation surprised everyone present. There is no absolute answer to war. Li Zheng was so sure that everyone felt that he was a little too arbitrary. It's just that Li Zheng is the God of War. He led troops to fight in the past and was almost invincible. Therefore, his words are military orders in the army, and few people dare to refute them.

Li Zheng stopped explaining and closed his eyes to rest in the Chinese army tent, seemingly not worried about the changes in the current situation. Seeing Li Zheng like this, everyone left the Chinese army tent and went to rest in their respective camps.

Li Zheng was at ease here, but Yu Wenxian was in full swing and the war was in full swing. Li Zheng's prediction was good, because Yongsheng Jinxian did not dare to mobilize troops from Kuafu City to support Gonggong City. When the defenders of Gonggong City saw Yu Wenxian's army attacking the city, their morale was shaken, and the soldiers had the intention of escaping. Willing to fight to the death, Yu Wenxian led his troops to chase him all the way. In one day, he captured nearly half of the Gonggong City territory.

Gonggong City was so big that even if Yu Wenxian marched with all his strength to hunt down the Immortal Golden Immortal, it would take Yu Wenxian at least two days to complete it. If the soldiers of the Immortal Golden Immortal resist, this time will be longer.

The defeated soldiers of Yongsheng Jinxian fled all the way to a small town called Tianzhu Town in the middle of Gonggong City. Just as Yongsheng Jinxian returned to Gonggong City from Kuafu City, he saw his own soldiers below being chased and fleeing from the sky. , the Immortal Golden Immortal was furious, and struck hard, killing hundreds of pursuers in an instant, and also killed dozens of his own soldiers who were fleeing for their lives, which shocked everyone.

The Immortal Golden Immortal had no time to pursue anything. Cheng Yu Wenxian's soldiers were suppressed and hurriedly ordered to set up a defensive formation in Tianzhu Town to stabilize the formation. When the Immortal Golden Immortal appeared, his soldiers no longer dared to run for their lives and defended in place.

Yu Wenxian led his army to catch up to Tianzhu Town. When he saw the Immortal Golden Immortal himself, he felt a little uneasy. While ordering the army to continue the attack, he also quietly ordered people to go around behind Tianzhu Town, hoping to attack from both sides and capture the Immortal Golden Immortal and his companions. The army was cooked in one pot.

The Immortal Golden Immortal discovered Yu Wenxian's intention, and while he ordered people to resist the attack of Yu Wenxian's army, he also secretly ordered people to ambush on the path that Yu Wenxian's army must pass through to attack the Immortal Immortal Immortal's army, and wiped out tens of thousands of Yu Wenxian's soldiers in one fell swoop. More than 10,000 soldiers of Yu Wenxian were captured.

When Yu Wenxian learned that his plan had been discovered and he had lost tens of thousands of soldiers, he was furious and ordered the entire army to attack. In Tianzhu Town, he started a series of battles with the Immortal Golden Immortal.

Not to be outdone, the Immortal Golden Immortal also ordered all soldiers to attack, and the two sides fought endlessly in Tianzhu Town. Tianzhu Town has turned into a hell on earth, with flesh and blood flying everywhere and screams...

Both sides went all out in this battle, but Yu Wenxian had the advantage after all. He had more soldiers and higher morale. After two days and two nights of non-stop fighting, he finally gained an absolute advantage and defeated the Immortal Golden Immortal. , forcing the Immortal Golden Immortal to retreat again.

In this battle, Yu Wenxian's army destroyed the 100,000-strong army of the Immortal Golden Immortal. He also lost more than 70,000 people, and it was only a narrow victory. The soldiers under the Immortal Golden Immortal are difficult to kill, which is one of the reasons why Yu Wenxian paid a huge price to win.

Yongsheng Jinxian led the remnants of his troops to retreat eastward, and met an army that came to support them in an ancient city called Shuangyu. This army came from Kuafu City and was ordered to be transferred by the Immortal Golden Immortal out of desperation. They originally planned to fight Yu Wenxian to the end in Tianzhu Town. Unexpectedly, they retreated due to defeat, but they encountered them here.

With reinforcements, the Immortal Golden Immortal quickly gained a foothold again. He took advantage of Yu Wenxian's army to catch up to Shuangyu City, and when it was unstable, he suddenly sent out troops and attacked Yu Wenxian's army in turn. Because Yu Wenxian's army had been fighting for days and had no rest, the soldiers were exhausted. They were suddenly attacked by the reinforcements of the Immortal Golden Immortal. They could not withstand it and suffered heavy losses.

Yu Wenxian had no choice but to order the army to retreat ten miles. He stood on a high ground and blocked the reinforcements of the Immortal Immortal who were chasing him, and barely stood firm. Although this battle lasted only a few hours, Yu Wenxian lost nearly 100,000 soldiers. In total, his losses were greater than those of the Immortal Golden Immortal.

Li Zheng, who was watching the battle, did not expect that the Immortal Golden Immortal would counterattack like this and would not have time to help Yu Wenxian. In Li Zheng's view, Yu Wenxian was able to defeat the remnants of the Immortal Golden Immortal in Gonggong City and did not need support. Therefore, when the battle situation changed, Li Zheng had no time to send people to support Yu Wenxian.

Yu Wenxian also did not expect that the Immortal Golden Immortal would care so much about Gonggong City and would not hesitate to spend a large number of soldiers to compete with him. Yu Wenxian had always easily captured other cities when he attacked Eternal Golden Immortal. Eternal Golden Immortal had never fought back like this before. Over time, he got used to it.

Now the Immortal Golden Immortal has changed his tactics, fighting for every inch of land, and resisting to the death. Yu Wenxian is not used to it, and the soldiers under his command are also not used to it, and people's hearts are a little uneasy.

National Preceptor Fei Junxian met with Yu Wenxian for this purpose and proposed a one-day truce to allow the soldiers to slow down and adapt to the changes. Yu Wenxian was also aware of the situation on his side and allowed the soldiers to rest on the spot for a day before continuing to attack the Yongsheng Jinxian army stationed in Shuangyu City.

At this time, Yu Wenxian remembered Li Zheng's arrival and hurriedly asked his soldiers, but no one knew the whereabouts of Li Zheng's army. Yu Wenxian felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered people to search for Li Zheng's army. It was found that Li Zheng's army had not entered the city, and was still resting outside Gonggong City at this time.

Yu Wenxian was angry and anxious, and secretly regretted that he had not paid attention to Li Zheng. He personally contacted Qi Feihong and asked Qi Feihong to order Li Zheng to lead troops to assist.

Qi Feihong had known these things for a long time, and calmly gave Li Zheng an order, ordering Li Zheng to lead his troops into Gonggong City, all the way east, and join forces with Yu Wenxian.

In this way, Yu Wenxian's army was delayed for one day and rested for two days. When Li Zheng met Yu Wenxian, Yu Wenxian asked the Da'an Army to take action again, but General Li Zheng refused. It turned out that the Da'an Army had been recalled by Qi Feihong two days ago and had now arrived at Chiyou City, south of Kuafu City, preparing to cooperate with General Li Tianxing in attacking Kuafu City.

Some of the troops left by Yongsheng Jinxian to guard Kuafu City are now fighting Yu Wenxian in Gonggong City. At this time, Qi Feihong ordered an attack on Kuafu City, which was indeed the best time. Moreover, Qi Feihong's attack on Kuafu City at this time can be regarded as helping Yu Wenxian, preventing the troops from Kuafu City from supporting Gonggong City.

Yu Wenxian had nothing to say, and he knew that he had ignored the role of Li Zheng's army. He was at fault, not Li Zheng. Yu Wenxian kindly asked Li Zheng to take action, but Li Zheng asked Yu Wenxian to divide 200,000 troops from the Red Dragon Kingdom to his command, saying that he wanted to attack from both sides with Yu Wenxian and catch the Immortal Immortal by surprise.

Yu Wenxian rejected Li Zheng's proposal because this strategy had no effect before. Li Zheng said that he did not have enough troops to act as a vanguard, and refused to send troops to attack Yongsheng Jinxian first. Yu Wenxian was forced to hand over 200,000 soldiers to Li Zheng, but many of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and their combat effectiveness was very low.

Li Zheng knew what Yu Wenxian meant, but he didn't say anything. He ordered the 200,000 soldiers to be divided into two groups, one of which was about 80,000, all of which were combat-effective soldiers. Li Zheng organized these people into four teams, each with 20,000 people. They were led by several of his commanders and charged forward to directly attack Shuangyu City.

The other group of 120,000 people were injured, disabled, old and weak. Li Zheng gave each of them a bow, all of which were low-level spiritual weapon-level bows. These bows can shoot psychic arrows and can assist in battle from a distance.

Although the spiritual arrows cannot kill the demon cultivators under the Immortal Golden Immortal in one fell swoop, they can slow down the demon cultivators to a great extent and buy time and opportunity for the soldiers who are fighting directly to kill them.

People make the best use of their talents, and Li Zheng wants to make reasonable use of these people and make their due contribution to the war.
