After Long Chen left, Di Luoxi and the generals immediately ordered their troops to march to the east, and Yanmen Pass was agitated.
The empress stood at the pass and watched the soldiers quickly gather.
Master Ziyun was a little worried and said, "Is Long Chen really good?"
The owner of Miaoyin said: "The words of the holy beast should not be false. It is impossible for a beast to deceive Long Chen."
The two of them were actually comforting each other.
The empress turned her head and looked to the north. There were defenders on both sides, but Long Chen did not take them all away.
Soldiers also need to kill and resist the puppets coming towards them. After all, there are still tens of thousands of them.
"Are Gan Zhen and Tingting still in front?"
Ziyun said suddenly.
The empress nodded and said: "Yes, the Anti-Lin Army is still there and Long Chen didn't take them away."
Miaoyin was a little strange and said: "Why don't you take away the Anti-Lin Army?"
In every battle, Long Chen would bring the Reverse Scale Army with him, but this time he actually stayed behind.
The empress said: "There are too many people on the east side. The Anti-Linian Army is only three hundred. It will have little impact on the battle situation. Staying here will have a greater impact."
Ziyun and Miaoyin looked to the north, waiting quietly for Li Chengdao and the puppet army.
They hope that the puppet army will come over soon. After destroying these walking corpses, they can free up their hands to reinforce Long Chen.
"Your Majesty, do you want to take the initiative? Kill the puppets as soon as possible?"
Miaoyin asked anxiously.
The empress thought for a while and said, "No, there are the most weapons five hundred meters ahead. Let them die here."
There are a large number of crossbows and firearms on both sides of the positions and in front of the pass. The puppets will be executed here, and they can all be eliminated.
Moreover, puppets are not good at climbing and can be blocked by gates.
If you take the initiative, you will be fighting a group of living dead, which is totally not worth it.
The east side of Yanmen Pass.
The martial saint and the ghost girl walked in the front, followed by the eight thousand barbarians of Merleg.
After bypassing Yanmen Pass and reaching the east side, the rolling mountains lie in front of you.
The ghost girl frowned slightly and said, "Husband, this is a mountainous area and it is difficult to climb over."
As the army moves forward, the influence of terrain is very large, so there is a saying of competing for geographical advantages.
Wu Sheng looked back at the warriors behind him and said, "It doesn't matter, our warriors are highly cultivated, and terrain like this is nothing."
"It's not easy for us to walk, and it's not easy for Long Chen to walk either. The terrain is the same for everyone."
"You see there are obviously fewer fortresses here than at the pass and on the west side. Cheng Hui's topographic map is correct."
The ghost girl looked carefully at the ridge, and there were only sparse fortresses, vaguely guarded by soldiers.
"Husband, look!"
The ghost girl suddenly saw thousands of people retreating in panic.
That was the more than 6,000 Jianghu people led by Meng Yidao. After they knew that Wu Sheng's army had arrived, they were desperately trying to escape through the mountains.
Wu Sheng looked carefully and saw that there were indeed thousands of people fleeing. The formation was very chaotic, and some people were left behind.
"Doesn't it look like a fraud?"
The ghost girl has been fighting with the Martial Saint for many years, and you can tell if she deceives the enemy into losing.
The defeated troops who lured the enemy retreated seemingly in chaos, but in fact they were orderly and organized within the chaos.
Moreover, a false defeat particularly tests the commander's command level and military discipline.
If military discipline is not strict and the generals are not dignified enough, they may pretend to be a rout at first, but then it will become a real rout as the show goes on.
It's not uncommon for people to fake things and make things look self-defeating.
But the team in front of these people was in chaos, and they were really defeated.
After Wu Sheng looked at it carefully, he said: "No, they are not the Long family army, or even the official army."
"Their clothes are all different and their weapons are in a mess. They should be the Jianghu people that Cheng Hui mentioned."
"Hmph, these scum probably wanted to sneak attack us from the side. Unexpectedly, I attacked the east side, and they were frightened."
Wu Sheng immediately made a judgment and guessed that these people were from Jianghu sects.
The ghost girl said: "Since you are really scared, why not take advantage of the situation and chase them. It will be in our interest for them to escape."
Wu Sheng thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.
"Meleg, I order you to charge and destroy those scum."
The Martial Saint turned around and gave the order, and Merleg shouted loudly: "The last general takes the order!"
Merleg's body was fat and huge, and his legs were stuck in the snow. He looked like a big lump of meat sliding in the snow, which looked very funny.
"Wolf warriors, follow me!"
Merleg looks like a big meatball, but he is very light and fast.
He shouted back and more than 8,000 barbarians followed Merleg and rushed forward very fast.
The cultivation level of these barbarians is at the level of kings, and Merleg has reached the level of Martial Emperor.
Such a warrior could have swept the world just a few years ago.
The retreating Jianghu people in front saw Wu Sheng's army and screamed in fright.
"The Martial Saint's army has arrived, the Martial Saint's army has arrived."
"I'm catching up, I'm catching up, run!"
A team of people from all walks of life was temporarily assembled. It was originally a ragtag group of people, scattered and disorderly, but now it was even more chaotic.
Seeing how confused everyone was, Feng He couldn't help but said, "It's really a mistake to expect them to help."
Meng Yidao said with shame: "It's my fault for not leading the team well."
Meng Yidao was in charge of the right side. Meng Yidao felt very sorry for this situation.
Feng He shook his head and said, "I don't blame you. Wu Sheng had a brain cramp and suddenly changed direction."
"These gangsters are not officers and soldiers. They cannot command. If they want to run away, no one can stop them."
Meng Yidao looked back at the barbarian who was stalking after him, and said, "If you don't want to retreat like this, I'll go and kill him!"
He thought about fighting with the enemy for a while so that he could have an explanation when he went back, otherwise he would not be able to see Long Chen.
Feng He saw Meng Yidao's thoughts and immediately stopped him: "Don't be impulsive, there's no need, I won't blame you."
Meng Yidao became increasingly embarrassed, but did not insist on turning around and fighting.
There are also defenders on the ridge, but not many.
The soldiers on the fortress saw thousands of people retreating, and then saw the Martial Saint army attacking quickly from the north, and exclaimed: "Why are the ghost soldiers here? Aren't they fighting in the front? Fire and thunder are ringing!"
The rumbling explosions to the west spread far away. They heard them and thought they were safe here.
Unexpectedly, the Martial Saint army suddenly appeared here, and they were also frightened.
The chaotic team crossed the fort and defense line and fled back in panic.
The soldier shouted loudly: "How dare you run away on the battlefield!"
The people in the rivers and lakes didn't care at all, and even mocked: "We are people in the rivers and lakes, not under the control of the court. You are officers and soldiers, you go forward!"
The officers and soldiers watched the people in the arena retreat and wanted to kill these bastards with one knife.
Before the war started, in order to prevent conflicts, military orders were issued, ordering soldiers at all levels to ignore people in the Jianghu and avoid conflicts to avoid civil strife.
Therefore, the scolding continued, and the scolding was over, and the two sides did not take action.
People in the world were afraid of Long Chen and did not dare to attack the officers and soldiers.
"what to do?"
The soldiers on the first line of defense watched as Merleg led the barbarians to the foot of the mountain.
There are no generals here, even the middle-level generals are at the pass, and there are only some junior generals on the east side.
"Fight, whatever the hell, fight when it comes! This is our position! Fight!"
The young general gave the order, and the defenders immediately bent their bows and set arrows, and fired arrows at the returning barbarians. Smoke erupted from the artillery and muskets, and fighting began on the east side.
