When Dingbei sends out troops to suppress the attack, the cultivators in Baizong Mountain south of Linghe must be notified. They will definitely respond to each other and launch an attack at the same time.
Most of the monsters are close to the Linghe line. If the Dingbei army does not move forward and only occupies some territory, the possibility of a large-scale fierce battle is slim.
Based on this consideration, Qiu Yiming really wants to be the leader. This is a good opportunity to re-establish his prestige. After this battle, his contribution will be unparalleled. He can stabilize the throne of the Great Elder and regain his own. power, that is a sure thing.
So he thought about this battle for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that Zhou Tianzong would fight alone, which was indeed affirmed by most people.
He came up with this idea for the sake of Zhou Tianzong, but he also had his own selfish motives in it.
If the other two factions also participate in this battle, a large amount of territory will inevitably be allocated in the end. Not only will Zhou Tianzong lose a lot of profits, but his achievements will also be greatly weakened.
Since he came up with this idea, it is natural that this leader must be him. But things went counterproductive. When someone brought up Zhou Yang, he immediately realized that his wishful thinking was wrong.
Because recently, his popularity has long been gone, but Zhou Yang is at the height of his popularity and has strong momentum.
Qiu Yiming understood that he had made a mistake!
If he had known this, he would still have deliberately put forward this suggestion.
"No, since this commander-in-chief didn't fall on me, why don't I..." Qiu Yiming's face looked a little defeated, and a hint of coldness suddenly flashed across his face.
"Deputy General Manager Ning, Deputy General Manager Guo, and everyone else, what do you think?" Master Fudo turned around and asked for their opinions.
"General Manager Zhou is qualified to take on this responsibility!" Ning Daosheng and others responded in unison.
"Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, I have another suggestion!" Qiu Yiming said again.
"Oh, the Great Elder still has a good plan? Let's talk about it." Hai Tianxiao nodded.
"It's not a good strategy, it's just an idea. This battle is related to the safety of Dingbeicheng. We can only win but not lose. Therefore, before the battle, we must say hello to the cultivators in Baizong Mountain south of Linghe and work together. After discussing a perfect strategy, with them containing most of the monsters, our army can march straight in and even capture the hinterland of Bai Zong Mountain.
If we can work together to seize the secret cave, then countless treasures can be collected in my Zhou Tian Sect's bag. I think our ultimate goal is the same, because the entire Baizong Mountain combined is not worth the secret cave.
Now that I am in short supply of resources in Beicheng, as long as I seize a large number of treasures in the secret cave, all the problems will be solved. Then the army can be withdrawn immediately. Even if the entire Baizong Mountain is abandoned, what will happen? "
Qiu Yiming's words were actually nothing new, but they were extremely tempting and inflammatory. The eyes of everyone listening were shining with anticipation.
A secret cave full of treasures, how many good things must there be? Who doesn’t want to enter and grab treasures!
Especially the fake elixir masters, you might be able to find a great opportunity to break through the golden elixir. This is definitely a huge temptation.
Zhou Yang was stunned. Why was this great elder so inconsistent in his words? When I made the suggestion, I was talking about regional wars, focusing on fighting for territory, and trying to avoid wars with monsters. But now he wants to propose that they go straight in and seize the secret cave. What does he mean?
"Well, your idea is not bad. Bai Zong Mountain is second. If we can capture the secret cave, then our Zhou Tian Sect can soar into the sky!" Hai Tianxiao also nodded.
The great elder was overjoyed, knowing that he had hit the mark on the city lord. He glanced at Zhou Yang secretly again and thought to himself, if you can, sooner or later you will cry.
"But with the strength of our Zhou Tianzong alone, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult. Let's put it this way, the first battle is still about stability. Winning this battle is the most important thing, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to everyone. As for the secret cave, who can win the most Well, if you really have difficulties, you can give up temporarily and focus on preserving your strength."
Next, Hai Tianxiao's words made Qiu Yiming freeze there.
"City Lord, look at this commander..." Master Fudo looked at Hai Tianxiao.
"Then Zhou Yang will be the commander of the army. After tomorrow's meeting, we will be ready to send troops to wipe out." Hai Tianxiao made the final decision.
At the plenary meeting of the Judgment Hall on the second day, the dispatch of troops was successfully approved, and it was decided that Zhou Yang would be the commander.
As expected, Ji Bao and Chen Mie tried every means to blame the two for sending troops, and praised Zhou Yang and the cultivators of Bai Zongshan, which made Ning Daosheng and others furious.
Hai Tianxiao borrowed the advantage of Poxiadonkey and did not force the two sides to send troops. He only said that it was okay not to send troops, but the necessary supplies for the war must be handed over, and more so.
In the end, the two old guys could only hold their noses and admit it.
Next, Zhou Yang became the busiest person, mobilizing troops and horses, replenishing supplies, mobilizing before the war, refining the strategy, and even going deep into Baizong Mountain to check the terrain, etc. He had to personally take care of everything.
At his suggestion, this time the troops were dispatched, not a single soldier of the army outside the city was used, and the main force was Zhou Tianzong's troops.
The army is composed of all the Second Town of Beicheng City Guards and the 11th Town of Nancheng, one each of the newly formed 12th Town, 13th Town, 14th Town, and 15th Town, as well as the elite disciples of Zhou Tianzong and their affiliates Each party sent 40,000 troops, recruited 30,000 war beasts, and 200 spiritual light cannons, forming an 80,000-strong suppression army.
Zhou Yang organized these 80,000 people into eight temporary towns according to the city guard staff. Each town was commanded by two fake elixir masters. The arrangements for these people are as follows:
The first temporary town was organized into Baojishan, the general manager of Tongjun City, and Bai Zuye, the former head of Wutouling Mountain in Baizongshan, deputy commander-in-chief.
The second temporary town consists of Chong Rufeng, the head of the Chong family of Tongjun, and Ji Chongling, the former leader of Dacheng Sect in Baizong Mountain, who is the deputy Tongjun.
The third temporary town consists of Jiang Chengxiong, the leader of the Daxing Sect of the Tongjun Army, and Meng Gang, the former head of the Nantian Sect of Baizongshan Mountain, who is deputy commander of the Tongjun Army.
In the fourth temporary town, Ling Hupei, the leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, is the leader of the army, and Madman Hu is the head of Bai Zongshanyuan Gorge, the deputy commander.
In the fifth temporary town, Taishu Long, the patriarch of the Tongjun Taishu family, and Wuye Zen Master, the former head of Zhongming Hall in Baizong Mountain, were deputy commanders.
In the sixth temporary town, Ning Daosheng, the former owner of Xiuyuan Villa in Bai Zongshan, Tongjun, and Kuang Lingfeng, the former head of Xianwuzong in Tongjun, were deputy commanders.
The seventh temporary town is composed of Guo Fengji, the former head of the Kaiyang Sect in Bai Zongshan Mountain, and Li Ren, the former head of the Sanqing Sect in the Tongjun Army.
In the eighth temporary town, Fairy Mu Rou, the former head of the Tianxuan sect of Bai Zongshan Mountain, and Mo Ziyu, the former head of the Demon Slayer Hall, were deputy commanders.
The first temporary town was the vanguard force, which opened roads in the mountains and built bridges in the water. The second, third, fourth and fifth towns are the main forces responsible for capturing various places.
The 6th, 7th, and 83rd towns are the rearguard units, responsible for clearing out the remaining monsters in the main two areas.
