Although Yunzhou is occupied by Xuantian Sect, the people in the state are innocent and are just forced to be involved. Therefore, it was impossible for Lin Yan to use weapons of mass destruction to attack it, which made Momen's actions generally somewhat constrained.
If it is completely released, the role of the Poison Hall will become particularly important. In terms of Wan Xu's poison skills, under the large-scale poisonous mist, the senior officials of Xuantian Sect may be safe, but ordinary disciples will definitely be killed or injured. heavy!
But this is ultimately unrealistic! Putting aside the fact that Lin Yan would not be so ruthless as to do this, even if Mo Sect risked the disapproval of the world, the result would not be very good, and it might even be counterproductive.
The attack against Xuantian Sect may not be that effective, but the civilians will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and then the Momen and the imperial court will lose their support!
And this is undoubtedly a stupid act that puts the cart before the horse, which is equivalent to pushing all the people and forces in Yunzhou to the Xuantian Sect.
Although Momen's actions have achieved some results, they are currently in trouble. Because Yintang's actions have been exposed, any subsequent forceful actions will only make the other party wait and see, making it difficult to achieve results, and the gain outweighs the loss!
"The next step is to watch the war hall!" Lin Yan thought.
While Xuantian Sect deployed its forces to surround and kill the Yintang disciples, a team of more than 200 people, led by Zhan Beixuan, reached an important town in Yunzhou.
This is the place where grain and grass are stored. Even with the intelligence transmission from the secret hall, it still costs a lot to find out!
If you look at it from the outside, this is an ordinary small town, but from Zhan Beixuan's perspective, it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the inspection of pedestrians is quite strict.
In fact, very few people come here. They are basically delivering supplies to the town. It is extremely difficult for new faces like them to get in!
Zhan Beixuan whispered to a big dark-skinned man next to him: "Mo Li, lead fifty people to the exit at the back of the town. Once I succeed, I will intercept and kill the enemy on the spot when they retreat!"
Mo Li cupped his hands and said, "Yes!" Then he left with a group of disciples.
The manpower configuration here has been well known to the secret hall. In addition, Zhan Beixuan brought here all the elite warriors from the war hall, so he has sufficient confidence.
He stretched out his palm and waved, and then several good hands from the war hall approached. Although they don't have the sneaking skills like the Yintang disciples, the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark, so they can't be noticed easily.
Seeing that the personnel were in place, Zhan Beixuan gave the next instructions and let out a nightingale's cry. Although the sound was not high, it still aroused the vigilance of the guards.
But it was too late. The moment the sound rang out, the masters of the war hall who had sneaked in suddenly suddenly attacked and cut the throats of the guards with quick movements.
At the same time, the door was opened, and Zhan Beixuan shouted: "Brothers, rush for me!"
At this moment, keeping a low profile has no meaning anymore, not to mention that for the people in their war hall, hiding is not their own style. Only by breaking through head-on and marching straight in can the true qualities of a hero be shown!
When the guards in the town had just reacted, Zhan Beixuan led a group of people from the battle hall to rush in. In a hand-to-hand encounter, the two sides started fighting.
A man who looked like a leader of the guards shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you attack this place? Are you tired of living?"
Facing his questioning, Zhan Beixuan directly chopped off his head with an axe. Blood splattered and the scene was extremely bloody!
Zhan Bei
Seeing how fierce the other party was, some of the guards were frightened by the sudden change, and the scene instantly became chaotic.
Although some leaders scolded them, they tried to reorganize effective resistance. However, the so-called "trees fall and the hozens disperse", after several leaders were killed one after another, these guards could no longer resist the attack of the war hall.
After all, everyone cherishes their lives. Under the general trend, there is no big meaning in stubbornly resisting! Anyway, it’s the leaders above who benefit from it on weekdays. It’s good if the ordinary guards don’t take the blame. There’s no need to fight like death!
There are not a few people who hold this idea. They themselves have taken refuge under the coercion and inducement of Xuantian Sect. It is impossible for them to be loyal. It is okay if the situation is advantageous, but once they are suppressed, it will be difficult to unite the hearts of the people!
At this moment, a sharp shout came, saying: "You bastard! Retreat the enemy quickly, otherwise you will be dead and buried!"
It was an old man wearing a moon-white robe. He seemed to have a high status and should be an elder of the Xuantian Sect.
This is not surprising. It seems that in such an important place, Xuantian Sect cannot safely let the gathered sergeants guard it. They must arrange for their own people to be in charge. It seems that the elder in front of him is responsible for guarding this place!
In addition to him, there are more than a dozen young disciples. Judging from their clothing and demeanor, it is not difficult to tell that they are also from Xuantian Sect.
With the appearance of this elder, the chaotic scene on the guard side became a little calmer, and they no longer ran around like before.
Zhan Bei
Moreover, these Xuantian Sect elders and disciples must be cleared away, otherwise they will not be able to carry out the next actions if they are blocked by the other party.
At the thought of this, Zhan Beixuan held up the battle ax in his hand and ran quickly towards the elder of the Xuantian Sect. The ax quickly rubbed against the ground, shooting out a series of dazzling sparks.
"Suffer death!"
Zhan Beixuan shouted loudly and came to the elder. He raised the battle ax high in his hand and then slashed it down with all his strength.
The elder originally wanted to scold him, but he never thought that Zhan Beixuan would be so unruly and use his killing move, so he immediately used his body skills to retreat in a hurry.
Even though he reacted quickly, he was still affected by Zhan Beixuan's fierce aura. There were several cuts in his robe, making him look a little embarrassed!
The two disciples who were closer were knocked backwards and vomited blood. They were obviously seriously injured.
This is because Zhan Beixuan's main attack target is not them, otherwise, he might not even know how to die!
After dodging Zhan Beixuan's attack, the elder was still shocked and confused. His own strength could reach the innate realm, and he was considered a strong man!
But Zhan Beixuan is known for his combat prowess. Even among the masters of the Xiantian realm, he is considered an extremely powerful being. How can an ordinary player like him be the opponent of the former!
The elder had a look of horror on his face. In the previous contact, he had already felt how terrifying Zhan Beixuan was. He was much stronger than himself, not to mention that the other party had so many good players.
As the saying goes, "If you lose, you don't lose the formation." What's more, Xuantian Sect is afraid of no one. It has to be coiled when a dragon comes, and it has to lie down even if it is a tiger. In short, this elder still refuses to give up and wants to "make a tiger skin into a banner" in order to scare these audacious thieves!
He said with a stern expression as he dodged, "You have offended our Xuantian Sect, but there is already a way to die! Why don't you stop quickly and follow me to the bottom of the peak to apologize, so as not to harm the family!"
How could Zhan Beixuan care about this? Hearing his threats, he suddenly became more and more irritated. The movement of his hand quickened, and the tomahawk slashed at the elder crazily.
Facing an opponent like Zhan Beixuan, he couldn't escape at all, because his Qi machine had been locked by the former. Blindly dodging was no solution. In the end, Zhan Beixuan's ax broke the protective energy and sent him flying out.
With just one blow, the elder's arm was broken, his chest was dented, and he suffered an extremely huge impact. Under his disheveled hair, his body was dripping with blood!
At the level of Xiantian Realm, any seemingly small difference in realm will have a huge impact on the outcome of the battle, and this elder of Xuantian Sect is experiencing the meaning of this sentence with his body at this moment!
He usually enjoys himself in the Xuantian Sect. No matter what means he uses, after finally climbing to the Xiantian realm, his status has been greatly improved, and he feels that life is infinitely beautiful!
This time I came to the town to garrison, and I took the initiative to take over a lucrative job. When I was guarding the food and grass, I could also get some benefits. Unexpectedly, I was afraid that I would risk my life this time!
As his thoughts turned rapidly, countless thoughts flashed through the elder's mind. Just when he was about to give up his interests in exchange for a chance of survival, Zhan Beixuan approached him again.
But before he could open his mouth to say anything, Zhan Beixuan's ax struck down on his head. The sharp blade cut open the skin, and the elder felt a touch of coldness, which was then replaced by a warm feeling.
He slowly raised his palm, but it seemed extremely difficult. His vision was blurred and deformed. He could only see something warm and sticky on his hand that was extremely bright red. Is that...his own blood? !
Next, his body was split in two by a battle ax from the center of his eyebrows down, blood was flowing everywhere, and the scene was extremely bloody for a while!
The faces of Xuantian Sect disciples around them were full of horror. The elder who they regarded as extremely powerful was killed by thieves so easily. How could they have a chance to survive today!
The rest of the guards were even more heartbroken. They were from the frontier army and had seen many battles, large and small, but such bloody scenes still had a huge impact on them. There were not many left in the first place. The fighting spirit was completely extinguished, shouts of exclamation broke out, desperate running, and chaos!
In fact, Zhan Beixuan didn't care much about these guards. These people rebelled under the power of Xuantian Sect. No matter how elite soldiers they were originally, if the tone they held fast to in their hearts was gone, they actually didn't constitute much of a threat. Threatening!
But for the people of Xuantian Sect, he didn't want to let them go. This was not only to slow down the leakage of the news, but also to take revenge!
He did not join the Momen later, but he survived the changes in the Momen that year. He saw the tragic scene with his own eyes, and later experienced countless battles with the Xuantian Sect during the era of the saint Mo Yusu. , the enmity is not small!
"Don't let anyone from Xuantian Sect go!"
In fact, even if he didn't say it, the disciples of Zhantang would also focus part of their attention on these people from Xuantian Sect. The guards had fled, and the war hall had an absolute advantage. It was undoubtedly easy to deal with these Xuantian Sect disciples who were dominated by fear.
After killing these people, some of the war hall disciples had lit flames everywhere, and instantly the whole town became ablaze, as bright as day in the dark night.
This was a plan made in advance. With so much food and grass, it would be impossible for just two hundred of them to transport it, and they couldn't handle it nearby, so the best way is to burn it directly, as long as Xuantian Sect can't use it. Got it!
The fire spread instantly. Fortunately, this small town is located in a remote area. There are no ordinary people in it anymore. They are all guarded, so there is no need to worry about hurting civilians, and you can do things with less worries.
In this fire, many guards were burned or hacked to death. The corpses emitted an unpleasant burnt smell in the flames, which was very pungent!
A group of Mo Li's troops were ambushed at the exit outside the town. The defeated soldiers took another blow while fleeing. After that, they had basically lost their combat effectiveness.
It is impossible to kill all these guards. Not to mention that the war hall is far short of manpower. Even if it can be done, there is no need!
First of all, their main task is to destroy Xuantian Sect's food and grass. In this case, Xuantian Sect will be restricted if it wants to intervene in the Tang Dynasty.
After all, before the soldiers and horses are moved, and the food and grass go first, it is impossible for Wang Xuanli to kill all the countries by himself. Although the Heavenly Realm is strong, it does have its limits. If he could really do it, he would have acted like this long ago. Why would he wait until now?
Furthermore, there are many masters among the three religions and seven sects. They will not just watch Xuantian Sect benefit. At least the Buddha Sect will definitely intervene.
Therefore, the best way for the Xuantian Sect is to engage in conspiracy and use the army to participate in this multi-party war to seek greater benefits.
However, this time the food and grass stored in the town were destroyed, which was a big blow to Xuantian Sect!
It is true that Xuantian Sect cannot store all its grain and grass in one place, but considering Yunzhou's reserves, the losses here are definitely not something that can be easily overcome!
Secondly, after the defenders were defeated, it was difficult for the Xuantian Sect to gather them together again. In other words, these people have lost their threat and will even cause some chaos in Yunzhou and bring trouble to Xuantian Sect. This is what the people of Momen are happy to see.
It would not be beautiful if these people were forced to die and cause any trouble!
In the end, Zhan Beixuan was not only satisfied with this victory, he also wanted to strike while the iron was hot and further expand the results!
In fact, I have to say that Xuantian Sect's confidentiality work is quite good. At least the secret hall's intelligence capabilities have only been able to detect two places.
Originally, according to the original plan, Zhan Beixuan should retreat quickly after destroying the food and grass here to prevent Xuantian Sect from pursuing him. But now Zhan Beixuan feels that Juzi and the others were too cautious when formulating their plan. Judging from the current situation, it is completely too late to destroy the food and grass in another place.
Zhan Beixuan gathered the Zhantang disciples and said, "Pass my order and head to the west!"
Mo Li said doubtfully: "Hall Master, according to the plan, we should retreat to the east after the incident is completed, and then wait for the opportunity."
Although he was not in charge of IQ, he could become Zhan Beixuan's most relied-upon deputy, so he was naturally qualified to know the next plans and arrangements. In his memory, the west side should be another place where Xuantian Sect stores grain and grass. According to the plan, this should not be done!
Zhan Bei Naturally, we should further expand the results!"
Mo Li hesitated: "But if you change your plan at will, what if..."
He is not a decision-maker, nor does he have much wisdom. He only knows how to follow orders. The reason why he warned Zhan Beixuan was mainly because he was afraid that any random actions would disrupt the original arrangements of Juzi and the hall masters.
Zhan Beixuan frowned and said, "Mother-in-law, Mo Li, when will it be your turn to command me!"
"Don't worry, if anything happens, I will take full responsibility and it won't be your fault!"
"Soldiers are very quick. Now, everyone sets off immediately!"
Since Zhan Beixuan had said so, Mo Li naturally did not dare to have any objections, and the Zhan Hall disciples set off again, heading west.
The place was so bright that it was impossible to cover up the news. The Xuantian Sect's intelligence network was not just a display, and the news of the attack was quickly learned.
In the meeting hall, the Ninth Elder yelled angrily, slapped the case and stood up, saying: "These thieves are so courageous, I will take people to kill them now!"
As he spoke, he was about to leave, but was stopped by the seventh elder, saying: "Ninth brother, don't be so impatient!"
The elder said: "The thieves are bullying me, but my clan leader is here, how can we not be anxious?"
The seventh elder smiled and said, "Do you have any traces of the thief?"
The Ninth Elder was speechless for a moment. He was just angry and blood was rising, but he didn't take this into consideration. But this Yunzhou is now the territory of their Xuantian Sect, so finding a group of thieves is not easy!
The seventh elder smiled and said: "Ninth brother, it would be too much trouble for us to find people again. It is better to just wait and let them come to our door!"
"In my opinion, after they have tasted the sweetness, they will not give up easily! In that case, why not invite you into the urn and catch them all in one go?"
Hearing this, the Ninth Elder also felt that this plan was very clever, and then turned his attention to Wang Xuanli who was on the first seat.
The latter nodded in agreement and said: "Seventh Elder, Ninth Elder, you two go together, and you will also bring five hundred disciples to help. We must annihilate all the thieves!"
The two of them cupped their hands and said, "Yes!"
Then they quickly retreated and headed to the west, which was the closest place to the town that was attacked. If the thieves didn't plan to stop, they would most likely attack there!
The two of them took the first step, while the five hundred disciples were left behind. After all, this is the time to seize the opportunity. If you have to wait for everyone to act together, the day lily will be cold!
After the Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder left, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was a little tense, but it was not entirely because of the Momen attack and harassment. After all, although these remnants are annoying, they are unlikely to cause any harm to the Xuantian Sect.
The third elder pondered for a moment, then raised his hands to the leader and said, "Sect Master, I wonder what the ancestor's current situation is like?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to Wang Xuanlide. The latter glanced at the third elder and said, "It will still take some time!"
The elders were silent after hearing this. Although Xuantian Sect was powerful, it could not overwhelm all the heroes in the world with the power of one sect. But if the ancestor really takes that step, everything will be different, and they may become the real first sect in the Yuan world!
By then, all three religions, seven sects and twelve sects, as well as any secular dynasty, will all be trampled under their feet by Xuantian Sect!
The second elder on the side slowly opened his slightly closed eyes and said: "It's not far!"
His appearance is very ordinary, but his eyes are particularly sharp. Just looking at him makes one feel as if his soul is being stabbed deeply. Every moment is an unspeakable torture!
Xuan Yi is the great elder, but that doesn’t mean he is the strongest among all the elders! To be able to become a great elder, in addition to strength, there are also factors such as seniority and management ability.
However, when it comes to pure combat power, this second elder is probably still above it!
This is a swordsman who has never married a wife in his life. He lives with his sword as his companion and pursues his lonely pursuit of swordsmanship. Looking back many years later, no one can compete with him!
His name is Xuanjian, and what he cultivates is the most powerful sword. It is invincible when it is unsheathed!
Except, that time...
He glanced at his chest from the corner of his eye, and there seemed to be a dull pain there. The second elder Xuan Jian took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down his fluctuating emotions.
"I heard that Momen has a junior with good qualifications?"
After hearing this, the fifth elder said: "It's just his first time entering the Xiantian realm! However, considering his age, his martial arts talent is terrifying!"
The eighth elder nodded and said: "That's true! The last time he sneaked into our sect to release the prisoners in Tianyuan, it was this kid who did it!"
The second elder nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at Wang Xuanli and said, "What do you think, sect leader?"
Wang Xuanli frowned and said: "Even if he has made rapid progress, his strength is only the first time he has entered the innate realm. Over the years, we have seen countless geniuses. If they are too amazing and brilliant, the greater the possibility of dying young." , it is not difficult for our sect to deal with him!"
"What really matters to me is that he has a powerful force in his body, and it is precisely because of this force that he can persist in my hands for so long. Elder Xuan Yi thought that he was not aware of it for a moment. Under that power!"
Wang Xuanli paused, then continued: "And somehow, I always feel that that power is a bit familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere."
The second elder said: "Is that so? This is really interesting!"
"This time Momen takes action, I wonder if he will show up? If we capture him, I think we can figure out some things."
…
On the other side, after Zhan Beixuan led the disciples of the war hall on a rapid march, they followed the route shown in the intelligence to another location where Xuantian Sect stored grain and grass. From the outside, the people here didn't seem to notice anything unusual.
Moreover, compared with the previous town, the outer defense here was obviously looser, which made Zhan Beixuan feel that this trip was the right one. As long as you are more agile next time, the battle will probably be resolved soon!
If two important grain and grass depots were lost in succession, even the Xuantian Sect would have to stretch its muscles and bones, and it would be impossible to participate in the war on the Tang side!
Mo Li said: "Hall Master, is there any fraud?"
Zhan Beixuan glanced at him and gave him a shudder, scolding: "Why are you so suspicious today? If you don't dare to go, get out of here, so as not to upset me!"
Seeing that Zhan Beixuan was angry, Mo Li did not dare to say anything at the moment, and reflected in his heart that he might have really thought too much!
This was mainly because before departure, the old hall master Wang Xiaotong had specifically called him aside and asked him to dissuade him when Zhan Beixuan got up to him. Everything must go according to plan!
Zhan Beixuan raised his hand and waved, and several masters used the darkness to sneak away, preparing to repeat their previous actions.
Everything went smoothly. A few guards quietly lost their lives and signaled to Zhan Beixuan that they could continue to act.
At this point, Mo Li also felt that he might have really thought too much. He was such a person as the hall master, so why did he need to worry about it? He could just follow the charge honestly!
Under the leadership of Zhan Beixuan, everyone in the war hall quickly entered the walled city. This place is different from the previous town. The walled city is built in a mountain valley, and the guards guarded by the sergeants are not disguised like the town. It looks a bit upright!
However, this place is different from the towns on the plains. There are mountain peaks on both sides, leaving only one long and narrow mountain col to build a wall. The risk factor of the operation is relatively high. If you attack rashly, the opponent may use the terrain advantage to form a counterattack.
Once Xuantian Sect's reinforcements arrive, not only the operation fails, but also a lot of manpower may be lost. Therefore, in comparison, it is easier to make plans away from the important food and grass town.
Zhan Beixuan was a little wary at first, but after easily entering the city, he let down his guard and felt that it was nothing more than that!
Just as everyone in the war hall rushed towards the center of the walled city, suddenly the door of the walled city behind them was closed, and the surrounding torches suddenly lit up, illuminating everyone's figures, making it impossible to hide.
"No, I've fallen into a trap!" At this moment, everyone still didn't understand that there was an ambush here. It was so easy to sneak in before, and it was probably just the enemy's strategy to invite you into the trap.
As the fire lit up, there were countless soldiers standing on the wall around them, bows and arrows, aiming at the people in the war hall below. Just waiting for an order, the arrows would rain down.
"Who did I think was so bold? It turned out to be Zhan Beixuan! Have you thought about how to die?" A laugh came from the person who was the Ninth Elder.
"There's no need to talk to him more. Just keep a few important people and kill the rest!" The seventh elder came slowly from behind.
When he saw these two figures appearing, Zhan Beixuan's heart gradually sank to the bottom. He knew that what happened today would definitely not be good!
These two people have a transcendent status in Xuantian Sect, and they also possess extremely strong strength. As if they came hand in hand, they have obviously been waiting for him here for a long time!
Facing two such opponents, he had no guarantee that he would be able to defeat them, and it was even impossible for him to escape.
Moreover, if he retreats, the war hall disciples behind him will definitely die!
Today's Momen's talents are withering. Even after recuperating, they are still very different from the past. These disciples of the Battle Hall are elites and must not be lost here!
Zhan Bei
Mo Li said anxiously: "Hall Master, you..."
Zhan Beixuan waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "Obey the order! This is my fault, I will bear it myself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped up, raised his battle ax high, and struck at the Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder. The fierce momentum enveloped them both.
At the same time, countless arrows rose into the sky, and then shot towards the people in the war hall like dense raindrops...
