The reason for Meng Zhang's hesitation was not entirely because he was worried that his own army would suffer heavy casualties.
What he was really worried about was that after defeating the barbarian army in front of him, his own army would have to move forward.
The foreign barbarians entrenched in the Yuantu Prairie have faced many sieges from human cultivators since they came to Junchen Realm.
Back then, the barbarians from outside the territory not only defeated sieges one after another and were able to firmly defend the Yuantu Prairie, but they also had the energy to actively invade the territory of the Jiuqu Alliance. One can imagine their strength.
After the Dali Dynasty became the master of Jiuqu Province, the strength of the barbarians outside the territory was not compromised.
Xu Mengying and her group of local cultivators are now facing only part of the power of the barbarians from outside the territory.
The remaining strength of the barbarians outside the territory, and it is very likely that they are even the real main force, are mostly hidden in the Yuantu Prairie.
The army of monks under his command continued to advance, but the future was unpredictable.
While Meng Zhang was still hesitating, Zhenjun Wen Dong, who was fighting with a barbarian king, took the time to send him a communication talisman.
During the battle, Zhenjun Wen Dong also watched in all directions and almost understood the strength of the barbarian army in front of him.
In his opinion, Meng Zhang should launch a general attack now and defeat the barbarian army in front of him in one fell swoop.
As a supervisor, he has the right to put forward opinions to Meng Zhang.
Meng Zhang sighed, knowing that Zhenjun Wen Dong was in the army and it was difficult to do many things. It would not be good if he thought that he was shying away from fighting.
In desperation, Meng Zhang could only order the army to move forward and attack the barbarian army formation in front with all his strength.
Meng Zhang took the lead and flew to the front of the team.
The three barbarian kings were all entangled by opponents of the same level, and no one could stop Meng Zhang.
Although the barbarian army can temporarily fight against high-level enemies after forming an array. But the monk army was larger in number, and they also laid out their formations.
Soon, the barbarian army in front of them showed signs of decline.
The army's posture could no longer be maintained, and large-scale chaos began.
The military formation of the barbarian army is not as neat as the army of human monks.
Barbarian armies often form formations in tribes, and in each military formation, the totems worshiped by each tribe serve as the core.
Through the totems that their families have worshiped for many years, many barbarian warriors can pool their strength to fight against enemies that are stronger than themselves.
In a barbarian army of this size led by three barbarian kings, it is normal for even a totem with level 4 strength to compete with the True Lord Yuanshen.
Before Meng Zhang launched an all-out attack, he was mentally prepared to fight the powerful totem.
Although the most powerful totem of the barbarians has power at the level of the True Lord of the Soul, it is generally unable to defeat the True Lord of the Human Race, who has endless tricks.
Meng Zhang, who has been in the middle stage of Yuanshen for many years, has mastered many magical powers and secret techniques. His whole body is armed to the teeth, and he has many fourth-level magic weapons.
He was so aggressive that he was preparing to kill several powerful totems. But after he rushed into the enemy's formation, he didn't encounter any totem that was worthy of a fight.
There are not many totems in this barbarian army, and their strength is not worth mentioning.
The most powerful totem only has the power of a golden elixir monk, and is not the enemy of Meng Zhang Yihe at all.
The barbarian army in front of him was surprisingly weak, and Meng Zhang would not be polite.
The battle between human cultivators and foreign invaders does not pay much attention to the common rules in the cultivation world.
Meng Zhang easily defeated the few totems in the barbarian army, and then attacked the barbarian army regardless of their identity, and killed a group of barbarian generals.
Meng Zhang showed great power and disrupted the formation of the barbarian army.
The army of human monks took the opportunity to attack, killing the enemy until they could no longer resist and kept retreating.
Even the barbarian warriors who are extremely brave and unafraid of death have no other choice but to sacrifice their lives in vain when faced with the absolute gap in strength.
The barbarian army soon collapsed completely, and a large number of barbarian warriors fled in all directions.
The truly brave guy who was not afraid of death would have been killed by the monks long ago.
Even Jin Qiaoer, who was patrolling around the battlefield, flew over to join in the fun and joined in the pursuit of the barbarian army.
In the end, except for the three barbarian kings who escaped with serious injuries, the barbarian army suffered heavy casualties and fled in all directions.
Meng Zhang, who was determined to delay the attack, ordered the army of monks to disperse and hunt down the fleeing enemies in order to expand the victory.
The enemy was much weaker than expected, but Meng Zhang took an advantage.
Regardless, it's a big win.
Especially under the unfavorable circumstances of the Dali Dynasty's expedition, Meng Zhang's victory was particularly eye-catching.
According to the military merit system of the Dali Dynasty, Meng Zhang's contribution to defeating the barbarian army outside the territory was not small.
With this great victory, Meng Zhang had an explanation both internally and externally.
Chase down the remaining enemies, clear the battlefield, and rescue your own wounded...
After all this trouble, it can be delayed for a lot of time.
When Meng Zhang won the great victory, Sun Shengdu had truly gone deep into the hinterland of Yuantu Prairie and launched a careful investigation.
Without the burden of other people in the team, he gave full play to his speed as the True Lord of the Soul and flew forward at high speed.
The investigation team will definitely investigate more carefully than one person, and will be less likely to make omissions.
Meng Zhang gave him the order to abandon everything on the road and go all out to go deep into the Yuantu Prairie and enter the core control area of the barbarians outside the territory to see what happened there.
Back then, Sun Shengdu relied entirely on gaining military merit on the battlefield before redeeming promotion resources and practicing all the way until he became the True Lord of Yuanshen.
He has been through many battles and experienced countless bad situations.
He can be said to be a true veteran, with unparalleled survivability on the battlefield.
Now he went alone to investigate the enemy's situation, and he gave full play to his abilities.
Sun Shengdu has performed well since he took refuge in Meng Zhang.
Now that he had received the order from Meng Zhang using his flying sword, he had no intention of cheating, but decided to carry it out honestly.
Sun Shengdu lowered his flying altitude and flew close to the ground. If he found traces of patrolling monks from outside the territory, he would even use the earth escape technique to escape underground.
As he went deeper and deeper into the Yuantu Prairie, he got closer and closer to the core control area of the barbarians outside the territory. In front, a patrol team of barbarians appeared.
The barbarian patrol team is small in number and very capable.
Patrol teams went through patrols one after another, leaving basically no flaws.
Every once in a while, there is a totem pole inserted in the ground, which is specially used to monitor the movement below the ground.
The totem pole unique to the barbarians can create an area similar to the legal domain.
Within this range, no matter it is a stealth spell or a stealth escape technique such as earth escape, it cannot escape the monitoring of the totem pole.
