Chapter 1131: The Great River Catches Fire

Hearing the conversation between You Yong and the Wingman, Xuan Bao and Jiao'er stood in front of the sand table, glanced at the terrain, and curled their lips at the same time.

Xuan Bao held a piece of dragon whisker root in his mouth and chewed it slowly. Now he's a little addicted to this thing, and he has to chew one every once in a while, otherwise he feels uncomfortable with his mouth sitting idle.

"What is he doing there? Could it be that he wants to go to Kyoto?" Ding Baizhan also asked inexplicably, this is obviously impossible!

Jiao'er pointed to the sand table and said, "He wants to go to the Yin Forest! It will take at least three or four days to go to Kyoto, how can he have the courage to run away after half a battle!"

"Go to the Yin Forest, wasn't the Yin Forest burned by the emperor?" You Yong glanced at Ding Baizhan a little inexplicably, then looked at the sand table, and after a while, he slapped his thigh, crying and laughing: "This stinky boy is really a master who refuses to live in peace!"

Ding Baizhan said inexplicably: "What do you mean?"

You Yong said angrily: "This kid is afraid that after our main army passes, their pioneer battalion will be reduced to the role of fighting side food, so he will go to seek fighters and run to be a flank!"

Ding Baizhan was stunned for a moment, looked at the sand table in front of him, and then laughed angrily! Shaking his head, he said: "This guy has always refused to be subservient to others, but he has a lot of ghost ideas, which makes people unguardable! But this is okay, we have more certainty! Your Majesty, do you say that we should simply send a right wing as well?"

"Don't ask me, you have your mind, I'll just watch the battle!" Xuan Bao waved his hand at him.

Jiao'er was the acting military division of the Middle Route Army, so when he heard Ding Baizhan's suggestion, he still shook his head and said: "No need! The battlefield was originally a bit eastward, and Yushan was on the right, so we still wish they could really hide in Yushan! The ghost hand and 100,000 beggars can drag 100,000 corpse soldiers, which shows a very simple truth, corpse soldiers are not good at fighting terrain warfare!"

Everyone nodded. The corpse soldiers are a group of puppets, and the complex terrain restricts their movements greatly, so once they run into Yushan, it is tantamount to killing themselves! The Xuanjun is not a beggar gang of brothers, with the purpose of pestering them, but to cut off their heads, so that Yushan will become the end of the corpse soldiers!

As night fell, there was the usual silence of the day's noisy inner wilderness. It's a deathly silence, as if the whole world has stopped, and there is no sound.

The battle of the vanguard army has ended, and the corpse soldiers will not fight at night, they are not like the demon soldiers, they have a certain night vision ability. And they prefer to rest at night more than normal people, because this is the best time for them to replenish their yin qi.

You Yong did not let the army enter the preparation for night battle, and rushed to the road for a whole day, compared with the combat troops, the physical consumption was really not much different, and everyone needed a good rest.

What's more, Xuanbing doesn't have night vision eyes, and if he wants to attack with fire, the target is too blinking, and the enemy can find it from a distance, so it's better to sleep honestly.

Send enough sentinels, and the army will camp in the inner wilderness. Make a fire to cook, and go to bed as soon as you're full. This is the habit of the Xuan army, before the war, you must let yourself calm down and sleep, make up for sleep when you have a little time, and raise your spirit as full as you want, so that you can have the strength to fight with the enemy!

Xuan Bao and You Yong gathered around the fire, listening to the battle statistics made by Chasing the Wind: 76,000 enemies were annihilated, and more than 20,000 corpse soldiers were introduced into the Yin Forest, and it is estimated that they will not be able to get out tonight, and they will definitely be killed.

The vanguard battalion lost 7,200 casualties, of which 1,500 were killed by gold swords and silver hooks, and the rest were the main cavalry, and the horsemen suffered no casualties!

This result was jaw-dropping, and Ding Baizhan looked at Xuanbao and said, "Your Majesty, this horse soldier is so powerful?"

Xuan Bao nodded and said, "If the 30,000 pioneer battalions are all horsemen, today at least the corpse soldiers can be greatly injured and killed until the horsemen are weak!"

"The place is right, and then the opponent is suitable, and the horsemen can maximize their combat power!" Jiao'er explained to everyone on the side.

Everyone nodded, this is not difficult to understand, the place refers to the wasteland here, the most suitable for the horsemen, can run away! And the opponent is the corpse soldiers, they were originally the sworn enemies hundreds of years ago, they know the roots, but these corpse soldiers are the worst batch, in front of the horsemen like mustard!

It is a pity that the five armies and three soldiers have a common characteristic, that is, they cannot be replicated. It can be imitated, and it can really improve its combat power, but it is impossible to fully achieve their combat power! Even if it is a heavenly soldier, it is impossible!

It's not that they're better than the Heavenly Soldiers, it's just that in a certain aspect, they can indeed stand alone in the world!

Just like the current horsemen, what they are most admirable about is not the strength of holding a long sword, but the tacit understanding with the war horse under the crotch!

The descendants of horsemen are all raised with a foal from an early age. That kind of intimate affection is not something that outsiders can understand, they are like brothers, living together, hunting together, and experiencing countless difficulties and dangers, before forming a spiritual sympathy that outsiders cannot achieve.

The men and horses of the horse soldiers have twenty years of service, which is similar to ordinary people, but once they retire, they will die quickly, and it seems that the vitality of this life has been spent in those glorious twenty years!

Most horsemen are already considered to be long-lived in their forties, but even at the age of thirty-five, they still have strong combat effectiveness, and only after leaving the horse's back, their vitality will disappear quickly!

The night in the inner wilderness was darker than elsewhere, but not a single star was to be seen. A large amount of yin qi almost formed a huge barrier here, making it difficult for people to fall asleep.

Fortunately, I have already drunk the antidote to blood fever and will not be injured by this refreshing yin qi, otherwise there must have been many people who have been infected with wind cold and fallen ill on this land!

There was a sound of wings waving in the sky, Xuan Bao stood outside the imperial tent, turned his head to look, and a black shadow landed in front of him, but it was a ground kite.

The Divine Palace Guard has been sent out by Xuanbao to protect Mo Ming and Phantom Ji, and only the Earth Kite stays by his side. The face of the earth kite was a little solemn, and he arched his hand and said to Xuanbao: "Your Majesty, that big river is on fire!"

"Huh?" Xuanbao was stunned for a moment, the river has no name, and the people in Shanghe Village call it the big river, why is it so good that it is on fire?

Xuanbao woke up suddenly, looked at the ground kite in surprise, and said, "Both sides of the strait are all burning?"

The kite nodded.

"Come in!" Xuan Bao said, then turned around and entered the imperial tent. The ground kite did not dare to slack off, and followed closely.

In the big tent, Xuanbao asked the earth kite to sit down, and then sent the girls out from the original realm, and asked the earth kite to tell the situation just now.

When they heard that both sides of the river were burning, all the women were a little surprised. Xiao Yin said with a solemn face: "Those are the only sources of anger in the inner wilderness, who did such a ruthless thing?"

"Don't ask, it must be the mage!" said Iron Will. It's not surprising that he is the only one who has the ability to turn it into a fire!

Lian Xin said strangely: "But what is he doing this for? Doesn't he want to live? Once the last bit of vitality is burned out, it will not be Xuan Bing who will die, but also himself and those manipulators!"

Yong recruited troops, wounded 1,000 enemies, and damaged 800 himself. But this trick of the mage is no longer a trivial move, it is purely a method of ending up together! This battle has just begun, no matter how you look at it, it is not at the end of the road, and you can use this trick so quickly?

Xuan Bao turned his head to the earth kite and said, "Call General You over!" The earth kite received the order and quickly withdrew from the imperial tent, and soon You Yong, who was wearing soft armor, strode in.

The big battle is coming, and he can't take off his armor, but it's not yet time for the general to charge, so he wears soft armor.

Listening to the ground kite tell about the situation on the other side of the river, You Yong, who was sitting on the futon, scratched his head and said to him, "That thing is burning, is it serious?"

The earth kite nodded vigorously, and added: "It's not serious for us, but it's serious for you!"

Hua'er ran over, stood beside You Yong, and gently beat You Yong's shoulder with his little hand and said, "Dad, let me tell you this, once that place becomes a place of death, the entire inner wilderness will become a huge tomb, similar to the bottom of a mass grave, mortals will die if they come close!"

At this moment, Zi Youyong's face changed, and he looked at the painting in surprise and said, "In this way, won't the Xuan army be defeated without a fight?"

You Hua'er just wanted to nod, but Lian Xin shook his head and said: "We will not be defeated, because our opponent will die before us! Don't forget that once the Yang Grass and Dragon Whisker Root are ignited by the fire, a large amount of anger will volatilize, and the first unlucky one will not be us, but the corpse soldiers!"

Xuan Bao's heart moved, and he really ignored this situation! This is too unbelievable, what does the mage want to do? Even if he is also a spirit cultivator, plus those who control it, he can survive in an environment full of dead qi and yin qi, but he also knows that the corpse soldiers cannot survive in a place where the vitality is strong! If the Yang Grass and Dragon Whisker Roots on both sides of the river are burned out, the intensity of vitality that appears is by no means something that the corpse soldiers can resist!

Isn't this a fool! The real death is all together, the corpse soldier who has worked so hard to become, he hasn't even waited for the final battle, and his strength has not been fully displayed, so he was killed by himself, what did he want?

"Unless... The fire was not put by the mage!" Jiao'er, who had not spoken, said a sentence, making everyone a little stunned. Even Xuan Bao was stunned for a moment, and began to feel incredible, but thinking about it, it was really possible, because mages wouldn't be stupid to that extent!

You Yong scratched his head and said, "I don't understand it again! I wonder who accidentally set a fire, can't it be extinguished?"

"Dad, you said that you can set fire to the sawgrass when it is not plucked?" You Hua'er asked him, pressing him on the shoulder.

You Yong thought about it, this sawgrass is not plucked and is it connected to the roots, or is it a living plant, so how can it be ignited? But it was immediately understood that the river was on fire, and those plants on both sides of the river were burning alive!

This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do, You Yong knows that he is not a spiritual cultivator, so he can't do this! This fire is not something that anyone can put on if they want to!

Now You Yong knows why the emperor and the ladies look so solemn! Hurriedly said to Xuan Bao: "Your Majesty, then I will order the camp to be pulled out and withdraw from the inner wilderness now?"

Xuan Bao shook his head and said, "We are already on the edge of the inner wilderness, and the impact is not great, what I am worried about is the more than 30,000 brothers in the pioneer camp!

Jiao'er stood up and said, "No, I think this is a conspiracy! A trap! The enemy may want you to go over and throw yourself into the net!"
