"The first is to attack the enemy, then the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, and then the second is to attack the city. The method of attacking a city is as a last resort."
The empress talked about "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.
Long Chen said helplessly: "There is no way, this time we are the attacking party. Li Chengdao is huddled in the ice field and has to attack the city."
Attacking the city is the last resort, there is no other way.
Li Chengdao is leading the ghost soldiers inside the ice field. Long Chen must attack if he wants to completely destroy the ghost clan and kill Li Chengdao.
"I really can't think of a good way. The only way to enter the ice field is Storm Canyon. Now it's blocked. I don't want to go over the mountains, so I can only clear the rocks blocking the canyon passage." Bayi Chinese website
"Li Chengdao only needs to set up soldiers and horses on the top of the mountain. Even without crossbows, he can kill people with rocks."
"It's extremely difficult to pass through Storm Canyon and enter the ice field."
On the way, the Empress was also thinking about how to pass through Storm Canyon, but after thinking for a long time, she came up with no idea.
Long Chen smiled and said: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. We can only take it wisely, not by force."
Master Ziyun asked: "How to outwit it?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "I don't know yet. When we reach the Hera Pass, maybe there will be a solution."
The owner of Miaoyin smiled and said: "It's obvious that the plan is out of control, and yet you still have to be tough."
Long Chen smiled and said: "I'll have it when I get there."
The empress smiled and said nothing.
...
Moon City.
Ten thousand crossbowmen gathered in front of the Moon Palace, as well as three thousand strong ghost soldiers.
Yue Lang stood on the top of the Moon Palace, Li Chengdao stood beside him, and at his feet were more than twenty clan elders, Yu Nan and Yu Lang.
"My fellow soldiers, Long Chen led his troops to invade the Holy Land in an attempt to destroy the Holy Clan!"
"The Holy Clan has lasted for thousands of years and has never encountered such a crisis!"
"In this critical moment, I will lead you to fight to the death with Long Chen, defeat Long Chen, and kill him! Revenge for the late king and the dead clansmen!"
The more than twenty clan elders below were very uneasy.
They have never fought in a war, they are just ordinary clan elders.
The ghost girl and the martial saint were so powerful, but they both died in the end. They knew very well how much Yuelang weighed.
The only one who can rely on and fantasize is Li Chengdao.
However, Li Chengdao is an outsider and has his own plans, which is completely unreliable.
In particular, Li Chengdao's two demon fetuses are eating ghosts everywhere in Yuecheng. They know it in their hearts and everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak out.
"Okay! Let's go!"
Yue Lang gave the order, Yu Nan and Yu Lang each commanded the crossbowmen and three thousand ghost soldiers, and immediately headed south.
Yue Lang fell from the top of the Moon Palace and said: "Dear elders, our Saint Clan has a geographical advantage and we will win this battle!"
Yue Lang was very excited when he ordered the army to go out for the first time and felt the joy of being a king.
"Yes, His Majesty will fight in person, Long Chen has nothing to fear."
Merle, the left priest, echoed.
Other clan elders echoed: "Our holy clan warriors will definitely win under your majesty's command."
Yue Lang said happily: "Let's go."
Yue Lang took more than 20 clan elders to the expedition. The ghost clan of Yue City came out of the igloo and watched the army pass through the middle passage.
Li Chengdao set off with the Black Turtle and the Spirit Snake, and Yan Shou led more than 5,000 dragon-slaying troops to follow.
Because the news spread, Li Chengdao suspected that the Dragon Slayer Army had an insider and asked Yan Shou to investigate.
Many Dragon Slayer Army soldiers were suspected of being spies and their heads were beheaded, leaving the military morale somewhat unstable.
However, no one dared to move in the ice field.
The army set out in great force, and the ghost tribe of Yuecheng sent them a long way before returning.
...
To the north of the grassland.
The army went all the way north, getting closer and closer to the Hera Pass, with only more than 300 miles left.
The closer the distance, the slower the marching speed. Long Chen deliberately slowed down to save energy.
Wu Sheng's attack on Yanmen Pass started from the ice field. When they arrived at Yanmen Pass, they had to walk a long way, and the ghost soldiers were severely exhausted.
Long Chen was worried about making the same mistake, so he prepared many war horses and slowed down his marching speed.
"It's okay today, let's set up camp and rest."
Long Chen looked at the sky and ordered to set up camp.
The military order was passed, and hundreds of thousands of troops camped on the spot to rest.
The Chinese army's tent was erected, Long Chen spread out the map, and the empress, Yu Wenkai, Di Luoxi, and Di Lingyi were surrounding them.
“This is where we are now.”
Feng He pointed at a point on the map, which was very close to the Hera Pass.
"Travel hundreds of miles every day, camp in the Black Forest to withstand the wind and snow, and rest for three days before attacking Storm Canyon."
Long Chen pointed to the location of the black forest.
The empress said: "I don't know what's going on in Storm Canyon. Is there any news?"
Everyone looked at Feng He, who was responsible for intelligence detection.
"No, Li Chengdao sent hundreds of ghost soldiers to station in the Black Forest. Our people did not dare to stay and withdrew."
There were too many ghost soldiers, and the people in the West Factory did not dare to confront them head-on, so they had to withdraw. There was no other way.
"It doesn't matter. When we get to the Black Forest, we will send people out to conduct reconnaissance."
Long Chen did not force the people from the West Factory to rush forward.
The basic situation of the ghost clan has been figured out. There will definitely be an ambush at the mountain pass. We only need to find out the number of ghost soldiers in the ambush.
"Let everyone get some rest. The closer we get to the ice sheet, the more we need to conserve our energy."
Long Chen said to the generals.
"clear."
The generals withdrew from the Chinese army's tent, and Long Chen came out last.
It was still dark, and Long Chen walked around the camp alone to see how everyone was doing.
To the north is the camp of the Demon Slayer Army, to the west is the camp of the Long Family Army, with the Beida Camp in the middle guarding the empress, and the Nanliang soldiers and barbarian troops in the east.
The south is where the logistics troops are stationed, and more than 5,000 Jianghu people camp in the southeast.
This place will not be threatened by the ghost clan, and you can also secretly make deals with the logistics troops and buy some things privately.
Yan Shuangyu stopped, Xiu Niang set up the tent, Meng Lan took out the food, and Liu Hanyan tied the war horses together.
"The north is so desolate. It's harder to find firewood than to climb to the sky."
Meng Lan gnawed on dried meat, drank cold water, and kept complaining.
Xiu Niang said: "The grassland in the north is already desolate, and it is even more so when it is close to the Hera Pass."
"Coupled with the hundreds of thousands of troops, not to mention firewood, even a pile of grass was pulled away."
Liu Hanyan smiled and said: "This place is better than Saint Xuefeng. Senior brother and I..."
Before Liu Hanyan could finish speaking, Yan Shuangyu clicked her tongue and said with a smile, "Hey, little junior sister misses senior brother again?"
Liu Hanyan said shyly: "Sister Yan is always like this, I won't say anything anymore..."
The embroiderer smiled and said, "No, Sister Yan won't listen. I will. Tell me how you and senior brother are doing?"
The four of them were joking and joking, and a muscular, wretched-looking man was attracted.
"Four heroines, which sect do you belong to? What are your names?"
The man sat down carelessly, holding a piece of dough in his hand and biting into it, looking vulgar.
"Where did you come from, wild thing, get out of here!"
Meng Lan was displeased, and the embroiderer said coldly: "If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
When the man saw that Yan Shuangyu and the other two were extremely beautiful, he felt so horny that he was not willing to leave.
"This is Xiao Liang, the great disciple of the Dragon Snake Sect! May I ask the names of the four heroines?"
The man looked at them one by one, and the more he looked, the more excited he became.
In more than forty years of life, he had never seen such stunning beauty, and he met four of them at once. He felt that his spring had come.
