Qingyang Pass has been broken, and the inner and outer Beihai borders have become a smooth road.
The original 30,000 troops in Qingyang Pass were not happy after a big battle. There were only a few thousand soldiers and 10,000 soldiers left. The servant army was even worse. They lacked good weapons and armor, and they suffered the greatest losses.
If Deng Zhizhong had not led his army to surrender in the end, the total loss of combatable men on both sides would have been more than 20,000 after the entire war.
There is also good news. At least the coalition forces in Jiucheng and the other three cities have been running together. Both the battle formation cooperation between the battalions and their mutual recognition have improved a lot. The number of people is declining, but the combat power is increasing.
It's just that this small number of people is still a bit weak if they want to directly use Qingyang Pass as a stronghold and attack deeply into the Inner Beihai.
The first city is Yuncheng, which is the closest to Qingyang Pass. Many troops were defeated in the siege battle, and they are all running into the pass. At present, these troops are unable to withstand this rock-solid troop garrison city.
The combined armies are preparing for war. Four of the eleven cities in the outer Beihai area are already there. The remaining seven cities are the last strength that can be obtained before conquering Yuncheng. Taking the seven cities can also ensure a safe future.
The army set off again, heading towards the Seven Cities. Zhao Bing, whose bloodline seemed to be deepening, became more and more exaggerated. He spent a lot of effort to melt an iron shell around the copper hammer.
The weight and size of the sledgehammer are larger than others, but it can be danced easily.
According to Zhao Bing, Naiweng is still developing twice in his thirties, and his future is limitless.
If he can continue to grow, he may be able to compete with Long Xuhu and Wu Wenhua in strength in the future.
The sledgehammer opened the way, and the city gates below the acropolis were like rotten wood. The army broke through the city easily, greatly avoiding the losses of the siege.
Coupled with Deng Zhizhong's appearance, the whole situation became easier. Except for his old uncle Dacheng who had never made an alliance, Deng Zhizhong easily conquered four cities. Zhao Bing destroyed one city and the rest. Under the full blow of the flame giant, the gate of Dacheng was directly shattered and burned into charcoal.
The seven cities were defeated one by one, and their extraordinary power was too meager for ordinary soldiers.
The reorganization of the military forces in the seven cities was completed, and the army returned to Qingyang Pass, drinking and chatting happily, talking about their longing dreams of how to pass the pass and kill generals in the future, capture Yuan Futong, and go to Chaoge to offer prisoners.
In the eyes of Wu Gan and others, Meng Chang was invincible. All the strange beasts and enemy troops were no match for the slightest blow of his own general's axe.
Mengchang was also willing to let them imagine that he was no longer the little soldier who barely survived under the siege of Jingren, but at least now he was the commander-in-chief of a fifth army with an army of more than 100,000.
"Report!! General!"
"Bi...Bi Fang is here! General!"
The officer panicked and saw a red sun approaching in the sky outside the city. His whole body was covered in fire, like a golden crow emitting the rays of the sun.
The generals who were resting for regiment training in Qingyang Pass and were rewarded for their merits immediately rushed outside the city and looked at Bi Fang who was flying closer and closer with a solemn expression. Only the young man who had just joined the legion held his head high and looked at him proudly. Own coach.
"My general is unparalleled in the world."
The sacred bird Bifang, the legendary firebird.
Meng Chang, who had won consecutive battles, had the fire totem in his hand. At this moment, facing the divine bird that wielded fire, his eyes were cold. He wanted to fight with such a being so that he could judge his own growth.
At this moment, a bolt of thunder struck Bifang, who was flying at high speed. The divine bird, which had been so arrogant just now, whirled around and fell down with a scream.
"..."
Immediately afterwards, everyone heard roars and Bifang's screams coming one after another at the edge of the wilderness.
After a while, the divine bird with its bright fur and flaming body flew into the sky again, but it flew over Qingyang Pass dejectedly like a drowned rat.
"What method? Who beat this stupid bird up?"
"The thing that can drench the divine bird thoroughly and prevent it from evaporating should be the divine water."
Mengchang ignored the comments of his subordinates and looked at the swaying Bifang, wondering if calling her a flat-haired pheasant would make her angry?
Divine Bird Bifang, what a good thing. If you don't take her in while she's seriously injured, you may not have such a chance next time. If you can get it...
Can you give yourself a pair of wings of fire? Like Xiong Kang and Lei Zhenzi, no longer have to worry about air combat?
As if feeling the malice of the young people in the city, Bi Fang flapped her wings vigorously and lifted her up into the sky. When it came to running away, she was a professional. Even a beast as terrifying as this could not kill her. She is just a mortal. If you have the ability, you can fly. Come up first.
Looking at Bi Fang who was gradually going away, Meng Chang felt a little sad and could only give up in frustration, not knowing when he would be able to realize his dream of flying to the sky.
"Lian Yong, take a team of scouts to see what's going on in the countryside."
"promise!"
Mengchang gave up hope. Bi Fang didn't look like he had won a battle. He wanted to win a fight, so he sent someone to have a look so that he could know what kind of existence the unknown person was.
If you can't pick up serious injuries, you can pick up the dead ones and bring them back with a meal. The food in the Classic of Mountains and Seas is a great supplement.
Eating is one thing, but business is also very important. I didn’t dare to touch the wilderness before because I might not be able to beat Bifang. Now that the version has been updated, Bi Fang gave someone a beating and ran away to the depths of the North Sea. , what are the remaining strange beasts in the wilderness? Those are cute little coins.
"Quick, Sledgehammer, you and the Seven Cities mixed brigade, take advantage of this moment to wipe out all the ring dogs and shell men in the wilderness."
"Go and bring me Red Rabbit. These giants almost ruined my life. I'm going to pluck their skins."
The Giant in Fire opened a big plug-in for himself, but the merit was not worth it. If he had not blocked the two giants at that time, and they rushed into the army to mess with them during the siege, he might have been dejected in advance. Go back to the Four Cities.
"Oh! Oh! Oh!"
"The general is mighty, I will go with him."
"That's right, that's right, the general is showing off his might, and we'll be beating the drums to support him."
Mengchang, who had run out on a red rabbit, heard this, changed his mind, and immediately turned around, letting Deng Zhizhong lead the team, and ordered everyone not to come forward to fight, but to stay aside and beat drums to cheer, while Governor Xin Ping prevented anyone from coming forward. The blood rushes to the brain.
The Kingdom of Adults was adjacent to Jingren in ancient times. It was huge in size but had few citizens. Its huge body was extremely powerful. The third "eye of the sky" could also have endless magical effects. It was really blessed by God. If it could match Jingren's fertility The ability is simply terrifying.
The loss of two adult giants was a traumatic experience for the giant tribe in the wilderness.
There are three giant settlements inside and outside Beihai, and the one in Outer Beihai is the smallest. There was a fierce battle in Yancheng ahead, and Yuan Futong took away three giants. This time he asked for help at Qingyang Pass, and lost two more giants. This is for the declining giants. For the tribe, it was undoubtedly a huge loss in combat power.
A small tribe of giants, more than a dozen adult giants, men and women, holding "sticks" made of giant trees, roared angrily at the densely packed little people on the ground, protecting a few small juveniles behind them.
Even a large number of ants can kill an elephant. What's more, there are tens of thousands of troops here, including many capable people and strangers.
Mengchang had never seen these giants speak before, and regardless of whether they could understand them or not, he shouted and asked loudly as he approached the horse.
"The tribesmen of the Giant Country, who were ordered by King Chengtang to recuperate in the North Sea, have now rebelled with the Yuan thieves, betrayed their trust and harmed the world. Have you forgotten the lessons of your ancestors?"
The giant was silent, silently looking at the loud little man in front of him.
"If you surrender to me, follow me into Inner Beihai, and serve as my vanguard, I, the general, can spare your lives."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge wooden stick swept across.
This group of surrounded giants actually dared to attack first? Meng Chang was a little unprepared. Under the surge of essence and blood, the flame giant stood in the air. He grabbed the giant tree with one hand and pulled it. The steel giant fell into the sea of fire. The other hand took advantage of the situation and pinched his neck. The firepower was extremely fast. It surged upward, turning the giant into a "red man" roaring crazily in a moment.
The raging fire burned the steel giant's whole body. When the critical point of pain was reached, the steel skin instantly faded away, and a fierce orange light instantly burned him to ashes.
The steaming blood essence was refined into blood essence in the flames, flowing down the arm of the flame giant like a torrent, and replenished it to Meng Chang's body.
Human beings seem to be born with a special affection for flames. They are both afraid of flames and extremely enthusiastic about flames. Under the raging fire, what is reflected is the hysterical shouting of the army, shouting about the power and domineering power of their own coach, and they seem to be burning alive. Revel in the dead giant itself.
"The general is mighty!!!"
Of course, killing giants can relieve anger, but if giants can participate in the battle, wouldn't it be more powerful than the Chaoge war elephant that General Deng said?
Kou can use it, but I can’t?
Mengchang stared coldly at the cowering giant in front of him, did not step forward directly, and asked again in a deep voice.
"You are not surrendering yet, but are you going to die?"
The giants were silent and turned to look at the old man behind them. They were blocked by other giants before, so they didn't realize that this old man didn't have three eyes? This...could this giant race still degenerate when they grow old?
The old man stood up tremblingly from the ground. After standing upright, he was actually taller than an ordinary adult giant. At a glance, he estimated that he was at least five feet tall.
The old man patted the head of the young child next to him and walked forward, muttering an unknown language.
No one can understand it, only Mengchang can.
This was the language Xiang Liu gave him in his dream. Meng Chang suddenly realized that he could not believe a word of this woman's words. This was not the language of Jiuli at all, but the language of mountains and seas. A language unique to the world of mountains and seas.
"I was also a descendant of the Yandi tribe. It has been three thousand years since I last saw someone like you? Or four thousand years?"
"Haha, I can't remember clearly. The last time I saw him, I was still a child. He was carrying a bow and arrows and threatened to shoot down the sun. But now that I see you again, he is too weak. many."
Mengchang was not stupid. The old man obviously meant something in his words, but he didn't know whether he was really talking about him or whether he was just like Xiang Liu, another "person" who did not possess the ancient virtues.
This old man knows something more or less.
"Who are you talking about? Someone from the Zhu Rong clan? Or... Li Tan?"
The old man shook his head and said nothing. He stood upright and looked at the scorching sun. The majestic energy and blood rushed towards Mengchang like a vast sea.
Meng Chang is the most sensitive to Qi and blood. How can he be an old man? This is obviously a ferocious beast from the ancient desolate land.
"Gu Feng and Zhang Chen are the tribesmen born after the giant tribe came out of the mountains and seas. One of them can control the power of the wind and summon strong winds to roar. The other can pass through the earth and borrow the power of the earth's shape."
"There are three tribes in the Giant Country. Not every tribe is trying to compete with the human race. Our era has passed. These two people can follow you out of the mountain and follow your orders from now on."
After the old man said this, he waved two male giants to come forward. They were both young men with burly bodies and more than three feet tall. They were also considered to be among the best in this group of giants.
Mengchang stared at the old man with burning eyes, neither agreeing nor rejecting, just staring straight at the old man.
"I am not a giant, nor am I a person from the mountains and seas. You will not get the answer from me. Keep going forward. To the depths of the North Sea, there will be some beings willing to take the initiative to contact you."
"I can't say it, and I won't say it. If you don't want to, you can give it a try and see if my old bones can block your little flame."
The old man did it on purpose, Meng Chang was sure. He kept half of the words on his lips, deliberately trying to titillate people.
The Pyro Man transformed into a fire ax and struck his head. The old man retreated with his right leg and hit the Pyro Man's ax with a side fist. A wave of air was set off, and the fire ax in Pyro Man's hand turned into dots of flames all over the sky.
The old man took a few steps back, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, like a heavy rain, covering the army with a scarlet rain of blood. Not only were the soldiers not afraid, but they shouted: "Invincible!"
Such a powerful giant is no more than the enemy of a general. Sure enough, the general is still more powerful.
Looking at the old man who was being supported by the giant guards, Meng Chang felt lingering fear. He cautiously hugged him and dismissed the flame giant: "Meng is troublesome. I hope the old man will atone for his sins."
"Since you have no intention of leaving the mountain, I forgive Meng for resigning."
After that, Mengchang rode back to the army. The old man looked weak and immediately scolded the two young giants to follow him, and kept telling him to be obedient and not to be impulsive.
The army gradually moved away until Mengchang and his army could no longer be seen in the sky.
The old man threw away his crutches. The palm hidden under his right hand was burnt black and dripping with blood. A pair of huge muddy eyes looked into the distance quietly.
"well!"
I don’t know what I am mourning.
