Chapter 671: Tacit Understanding
"You kid, how do you know that he will come, can it be that you have discussed it in advance" Fan Zhongyuan looked stunned. "Co*Fun*Words*Love*First*Fa ()』
He suddenly appeared here, and he didn't even say what he meant, how could Mu Zheping guess that Lin Si was also here, couldn't there be other things to report the news
"Since you always appear here, then he should have already brought the main force to support me, it seems that the Shenyan army will be broken soon" The corners of Mu Zheping's mouth curled slightly, as if he already knew the whole process of the matter.
"You're so sure," Fan Zhongyuan became more and more strange.
It stands to reason that the situation on Lin Si's side is also very unfavorable, how could he expect Lin Si to come to support him
"Because I had the idea of supporting him at first, but unfortunately, the enemy behind me bit too hard. Mu Zheping shrugged.
Fan Zhongyuan sighed loudly: "Boy, you guessed right, it seems that the world still underestimates the tacit understanding between the three ghosts of your Shangling."
The generals present couldn't figure out the ins and outs for a while, but they at least heard a little bit that Lin Si had brought troops to support them.
With Lin Si's men and horses, then their strength will surpass the Shenyan army in the rear.
When the time comes, they will naturally not have to be so passive.
For a while, everyone became scrappy again.
And Jiang Rong's heart was already in turmoil, and he knew better than others after all. He now wondered if Mu Zheping had been waiting for Lin Si's arrival from the beginning, otherwise why would he retreat so confidently
If that's the case, then he's terrible. You know, there is no one to dispatch them uniformly, and they have not had any contact beforehand.
Such two people, once they join forces to lead the troops, who can stop them
He and Fan Zhong glanced at each other without a trace, and the two of them saw the meaning in each other's eyes.
These two must not be let go, they must remain here, at least until the day when Long Yan completely drives the Shenyan people out of the land
A day later, Yongyun City was captured by the Shenyan army.
Mu Zheping continued to retreat, and no one questioned his decision at this time.
Then, in Lichuan Mountain between Yongyun and Kuning, he met Lin Si.
Since the two of them moved towards the rear together, they were actually not far apart.
After the two met, Jiang Rong couldn't wait to ask, "What about the people you brought?"
"It's in the mountains and forests behind. Lin Si smiled slightly.
"You guy, you plan to start a war when you come up" Mu Zheping laughed unprecedentedly, he guessed Lin Si's intentions.
"Yes, you shouldn't have leaked the news that I brought someone."
"Of course not. ”
"Hey, what kind of dumb riddle are you two playing, don't you recruit them from the truth" Nie He on the side couldn't help but scold angrily.
He was confused by what the two of them said.
"My people, if you don't show up now, you will have a chance to ambush the enemy army," Lin Si spread his hands.
Jiang Rong was shocked, and then his face showed ecstasy.
Mu Zheping gave them a gag order yesterday, and every general who learned the news of Lin Si's imminent arrival had been closely monitored, and he felt too cautious at that time.
And now, seeing that Lin Si just appeared alone, he finally understood their intentions.
Lin Si's army, if he directly joined Mu Zheping's army, could certainly greatly enhance his own strength and change the strength comparison between the two sides.
However, once they engage head-on, the Divine Flame can still inflict great damage on them.
And it is more likely that the Shenyan people will retreat to Baoxincheng, and it will be difficult for them to annihilate those 370,000 people at that time.
And now, Lin Mu and the others obviously want to take advantage of the fact that the Shenyan people don't know about it to give the enemy an ambush battle. If his prediction was correct, Lin Si's men and horses should have been ambushed in the dense forests on both sides of the mountain road ahead.
The Shenyan people should not have known that they had reinforcements so far, because no matter how you think about it, Long Yan will not have reinforcements.
Then they will continue to pursue Mu Zheping.
In this kind of mountainous area, the enemy would have been wary of ambushes. They won't be careless, their scout spies will always bite Mu Zheping's 300,000 army.
However, Lin Si's people were not what they expected.
At that time, when they were relieved to boldly pursue, Lin Si's men and horses suddenly covered up from the rear, and Mu Zheping turned his horse's head and attacked back with an army of 300,000
The army of 370,000 gods will be completely annihilated
An enemy who is caught off guard and ambushed will be in chaos in an instant, until it collapses
After thinking about this, he had a new understanding of the tacit understanding between Lin Mu and the two. You must know that after Fan Zhongyuan arrived yesterday, he didn't mention anything about joining forces to ambush, it was completely a temporary intention of the two of them after entering this Lichuan Mountain
Jiang Rong's inference was not wrong, and the things that followed were no different from what he imagined.
Ji Tu was cautious enough, but he never dreamed that Lin Si would quietly bring 120,000 people to ambush on both sides.
In his eyes, there were only Mu Zheping's 300,000 horses, and those 300,000 people had always been in the sight of the scouts in front of him, and they were also under his control.
He didn't suspect him at all, so he chased after him directly.
The end result was tragic.
His rear army was suddenly covered by a rain of arrows, and when the 120,000 elite masters came out, the 370,000 army was instantly in chaos.
In this kind of mountain and forest terrain, everyone will have the possibility of ambush or not. And once you are in the middle of this, the first thought in your heart is over, and it is calculated.
And after seeing that the person who was killed was not Mu Zheping, but Lin Si, Fan Zhongyuan, Qi Jing and others, Ji Tu also knew about the plan.
The chaotic scene and complex terrain made him unable to distinguish how many people there were on the other side for a while.
He actually waved his army directly forward to break through, just wanting to rush out of this mountain forest as soon as possible.
But immediately after that, the 300,000 people behind Mu Zheping suddenly killed him back in front of him, and at this point, the Shenyan army completely collapsed.
With their total strength of 370,000 and the lineup of more than 70 people in the three Heavenly Realms, they were originally fighting head-on, even if Lin Mu and the two of them combined with their more than 400,000 troops, the two sides would be turned upside down.
Long Yan's army of more than 400,000 people, if he wanted to exterminate this group of Shenyan army, his own casualties would be at least more than half.
But now, the Shenyan army was suddenly attacked, and the mountainous terrain that was not conducive to changing formations to meet the enemy sent them to a road of destruction.
With the three heavenly realms including Fan Zhongyuan, the three ghosts of Shangling are all there, and with Ruoruo and more than 100 other realm-breakers, Long Yan also has the upper hand in the master lineup.
The battle lasted for two full hours, and dozens of miles of surrounding mountains and forests were razed to the ground, stained with blood everywhere, and corpses were ambushed everywhere
Less than 70,000 people escaped from the 370,000 Divine Flame army, and in terms of Divine Flame, two people were killed on the spot in the three major heavenly realms, and the casualties in the Breaking Extreme Realm were uncountable.
And the more than 400,000 troops on Long Yan's side also suffered as many as 50,000 or 60,000 casualties, but there is no doubt that this is an out-and-out victory.
Mu Zheping didn't stop at all, and directly waved his army to chase after Ji Tu's 70,000 remnants.
And Lin Si quickly returned to the west with the elite of his headquarters to help Bian Zhong, he couldn't hope that the Shenyan guards would never find a flaw.
The six cities that had fallen before were almost recovered after crossing the city, and the remaining Shenyan defenders along the line fled in despair.
For a day and a night, Mu Zheping and Ji Tu's two teams chased and fled until they reached Baoxincheng. Then Mu Zheping repeated his old trick and tore the protective cover again, and Bao Xincheng was attacked.
In the end, Ji Tu just fled to the rear with 30,000 remnants of the army.
At this point, the Shenyan army in the east was no longer a threat, and Baoxincheng fell into the hands of Long Yan.
The city defenders had nothing to say any more, this great victory came too quickly and too heartily, how could they have had such an experience of beating hundreds of thousands of wolves and fleeing like this
The prestige of Lin Mu and the others can no longer be shaken.
After conquering Baoxincheng, Mu Zheping also quickly returned to the army, leading more than 200,000 troops across 5,000 miles to Mingning City in the west.
When Mu Zheping chased to Baoxincheng, Lou Hai didn't even know that the outer Longyan army was just an empty shell.
But he is not incompetent after all, and he has not moved for three or four days in a row, which is just a provocation, and he also sees that something is wrong.
The main general on the other side should know by now that he will not be able to fall into the mountain, and their trap is too blatant.
This is obviously doing useless work, but the other party is busy, and the other party is going to do this
He didn't believe that the other party would continue to spend time with him like this.
It's still the same sentence, I have been living in the mountains, and the soldiers can't bear it. Mosquito bites alone and water for food are already a headache.
Not everyone can call the mountains and forests home like the Chatans.
Eventually, he slowly advanced with his army, and when he reached the edge of the forest, he sent a vanguard army to test it.
Then I was stunned to find that there was only an empty camp tent left in the mountain, and there was no one left.
It was only then that he realized that he had been tricked.
Chasing this is an unquestionable choice.
The pit traps that the 200,000 Longyan army had dug for so many days finally came into play, because because of their survival, the Shenyan soldiers were miserable, and the pace of pursuit became extremely difficult.
The advance of the army was frighteningly slow, the mountain roads had been completely cut off, and the cavalry's horses were completely impassable.
Only the cultivators above the Extreme Realm can catch up quickly, and even the speed of the Yuan Realm is inevitably slower by more than half.
And Lou Hai's caution was once again misguided, he was worried that the other party was deliberately disturbing his military morale and making his formation scattered. He thought that the other party must have set up an ambush in front of him, so he did not rush to pursue, but stayed and waited for the army to come out of the mountains and forests and then converge and advance eastward.
He didn't know that Long Yan's army had retreated to the nearby Jingxi City and made a gesture of all-round entrenchment.
By the time he gathered his army and chased him to the city of Jingxi, another day had passed.
And it was not until this time that the battle report of the first battle of Lichuan Mountain finally reached his hands. Ji Tu's army of 370,000 had already collapsed for thousands of miles, because Lin Si quietly took the elite who were originally outside Mingning City to kill back.
It turns out that these days, what I am facing is really just a weak army without the cover of a master at all
His army of 400,000 was dragged by such a force for five or six days
This is completely a great shame, and it can be said that a large part of the reason for Ji Tu's failure was caused by himself
After going back, he also couldn't escape the punishment of Etai.
Just before he came, he and Ji Tu were among the generals who mocked Gu Zihan, and now they finally understood Gu Zihan's mood at that time.
Only by eating the 200,000 people in Jingxi City can he recover the decline This is his only thought at this time
After killing these 200,000 Long Yan troops, the strength of the two sides can be balanced again.
Although after losing this 200,000 Dragon Yan army, the number of masters on the other side is still above his own. But at least, the total strength of the two sides is not much different.
However, he didn't know that because of his previous delay in the mountains and forests, Lin Si had already returned to Jingxi City with the elite in advance.
