After the battle is over, the next step is to clear the battlefield, rearrange the defense, and wait for the demon army to attack Langshan.
For Lingqiao, conquering Longshan is not a difficult task.
The real trouble is how to defend Longshan.
The number of monsters guarding Mount Long is not very large. The only spirit demon Louzi was killed by Gu Yuan, and the terrain of Mount Long cannot compare with that of Nile Peak.
If he can't win this, it can only be said that Ling Qiao is just doing nothing.
When Wu Ning and the others arrived, they didn't see the demon army arriving.
The spies sent out have returned and observed that the demon army has turned back.
When he heard the news, Gu Yuan also looked a little incredible.
Previously, he had thought of leaving Tuo Ya's body behind to cause panic to the demon army and delay their attack on Long Mountain. After all, even if Ling Qiao and the others occupied Long Mountain, they would still need some time to rest and redeploy.
Unexpectedly, the demon army after losing Tuoya would be so decisive and immediately gave up the plan to attack Longshan.
This was far beyond their expectations.
"What should we do now?" Gu Yuan whispered.
"Isn't this a good thing?" Zhou Zhen asked doubtfully, "Since the demon army has retreated, it means that we have firmly occupied the demon mountain!"
Gu Yuan glanced at him, sighed and said nothing.
Ling Qiao also felt a little melancholy at this moment.
Indeed, Gu Yuan's mission has been successfully completed.
Not only did it delay the demon army, but it also killed Tuoya.
After losing Tuoya, Longshan was captured by the demon-slaying army. The demon army lacked command. It would indeed not be a wise choice to continue attacking Longshan at this time.
Moreover, no monster in that monster army could make such a choice.
Under such circumstances, it would be the safest choice to go back directly to Nile Peak and then send the message to Demon Mountain.
"Everyone, let's take a good rest first." Ling Qiao said after pondering for a moment.
Wu Ning, Zhou Ziyi and others went out one after another.
Gu Yuan did not leave, he knew that Ling Qiao had something to say to him.
"We don't know what the situation is over at Captain Li's side. Now that the demon clan has suddenly withdrawn its troops, what do you think we should do now?"
Gu Yuan quickly shook his head.
"I don't know about this, I'll listen to you."
Ling Qiao's face darkened.
He wanted to ask Gu Yuan why he was so violent that he killed Tuo Ya, but if he really said such words, he would be too shameless.
Wu Ning and others felt that this was good news, and they had enough time to deploy on Longshan Mountain.
But Lingqiao and Gu Yuan knew in their hearts that what they had to do was attract the attention of the demon clan, and they didn't really have to capture Long Mountain.
"It means nothing to us to capture Longshan. We can't hold it here," Ling Qiao said.
Gu Yuan nodded.
After coming to Northern Xinjiang this time, he also had a better understanding of the situation here.
Longshan is not a battleground to begin with. At most, it can establish a line of defense, but it is not a strong line of defense.
If the terrain of Mount Long is easy to defend and difficult to attack, then when the Demon-Slaying Army abandoned Nile Peak, they would not have retreated to Demon-Slaying City, but to retreat to Mount Long.
"Captain Li and the others should have arrived at Demon Mountain by now, right?" Gu Yuan said suddenly.
"Huh?" Ling Qiao thought for a while and said, "Based on the time, we must have arrived."
"In this case, we have to do something, otherwise Captain Li will not find a chance." Gu Yuan said.
Ling Qiao nodded and cast a questioning look at Gu Yuan.
Of course Ling Qiao understood everything Gu Yuan said.
But the problem is that now the demon army has retreated, and Long Mountain has fallen into their hands.
In fact, none of them had a direct conflict with the demon army.
That is to say, they cleaned up the demon clan guarding Longshan Mountain, and the battle was quick, without causing much commotion.
"Commander Ling, I have a way to make Yaoshan notice us, and we may even have to use some experts." Gu Yuan said suddenly.
Ling Qiao's eyes lit up.
"you say!"
This is the problem that bothers him now, but for a while, he really can't think of a solution.
If Gu Yuan really has a way, it can be regarded as solving his urgent need.
Gu Yuan cleared his throat and said loudly: "Our target is not Longshan in the first place, so it is meaningless for us to capture Longshan. My idea is that since we are already here, let's fight all the way! Tuo Ya is dead, which is a variable and disrupts our plan, but similarly, with Tuo Ya's death, the demon army is also in disarray..."
When Gu Yuan said this, Ling Qiao's eyelids also twitched.
"Be specific."
In fact, Ling Qiao already knew what Gu Yuan wanted to express at this time, but he felt that it was too ridiculous, so he was not sure.
Gu Yuan didn't think so much, and continued: "I think we can continue to go deeper and capture Nile Peak!"
Ling Qiao: "..."
I am really afraid of what will happen!
He had guessed that Gu Yuan wanted to say this before, but he didn't expect that this kid actually dared to speak!
Attack Nile Peak!
Not to mention now.
Even if Li Siming is in charge, he will not dare to take action against Nile Peak for the time being.
It is already not easy to defend the Demon Slaying City!
"With our current strength, it is almost impossible to attack Nile Peak. Even if the demon army loses Tuo Ya, there are many masters on the demon mountain, and we can't get any advantage."
Gu Yuan was calm: "Of course I know this, but the problem is that our previous goal was to capture Mount Long. In fact, does it really matter whether we can capture Mount Long?"
When Ling Qiao heard this, his eyes lit up.
Gu Yuan continued: "So, it's the same now. Does it really matter whether Nile Peak can be conquered? As for Monster Mountain sending experts to guard Nile Peak, isn't that what we want? We want to conquer Mount Long, and they We can release it for safety reasons, but if we set the target as Nile Peak, will the demon clan continue to retreat?"
Ling Qiao did not get angry, but thought about this problem seriously.
When he first heard Gu Yuan's idea, he thought it was ridiculous and simply a fantasy.
But calm down and think about it carefully, this seems to be a solution.
Although the risk factor is very high, isn't their purpose just to make some noise?
"Let's do this. You go and call them all from Chuxi Valley, and we'll discuss it. It just so happens that we also need some time to rest."
Gu Yuan agreed, turned around and walked out.
Ling Qiao looked at his back and let out a long breath.
"You are really a young man, you are so courageous! You dare to have any ideas...but it doesn't seem impossible, right?"
Ling Qiao's blood boiled at the thought of attacking Nile Peak!
