Chapter 1205: The Age of the Red Lotus
When two armies clash, what determines the outcome of the war?
There are clouds in the art of war: one is the Tao, the second is the sky, the third is the earth, the fourth is the general, and the fifth is the law.
Who is the master, who is the will, who is capable, who is the heaven and the earth, who is the law, who is the law, who is the strongest, who is the soldier, who is the soldier, who is the reward, who is the reward?
If this is the case, from this point of view, the victory or defeat can be seen.
Huanglong Zhenren is well versed in the art of war, and he was not very optimistic about the five-color army in Lingnan from the beginning.
Sure enough, compared to the Sen Sen military appearance of Daqian, the five-color army in Lingnan is like a copycat bandit. The formation of the entire charge was disjointed.
This situation also made Wu Hao shake his head.
Fortunately, his Peerless Eight Divisions are quite powerful.
In this battle, the vanguard is still the "death" battalion among the eight divisions of the Peerless Heaven. It's really the Yaksha clan's "Yaksha Chariot" ability that is too suitable for charging into battle.
The more than 1,000 Yaksha Red Lotus Dao soldiers of the entire "death" word battalion formed three huge Yaksha chariots, and the finished font typed rushed towards the Great Cadre Army Formation, and its momentum was overwhelming, and its sound was thunderous!
Rumble!
The huge Zhujian Army Soul Phantom collided with the Yaksha chariot, and the entire battlefield seemed to be shaken. The Red Lotus Dao soldiers of several other divisions followed closely behind, and they were immediately strangled with the Zhennan Army.
Both Dugu and Xiao Li were experienced in the battle formation, and they quickly found the weakness of the five-color army. The heavy infantry dragged the front of the Eight Divisions, and Xiao Li led the cavalry to outflank them from both flanks.
Their target was the follow-up army that was disconnected from the previous army in the charge of the Pencolor Army.
Sure enough, as they expected, the Great Cadre Cavalry soon set off a bloody storm in the five-color army.
"This battle is dangerous!" Even Yan Jiuding, who didn't know anything about the battle formation, could see that the battle situation of the five-color army was unfavorable.
Seeing the scene in front of him, the corners of Wu Hao's mouth twitched slightly.
He could imagine that his side would be at a disadvantage, but he didn't expect to be defeated so soon.
Sure enough, it's not the power that you control, or you can't have much hope.
So Wu Hao didn't wait any longer, stretched out his hand and threw an object, and flew towards the sky in the center of the battlefield.
It was the natal spirit treasure he refined, the karmic fire red lotus!
The karmic fire red lotus spun around, sprinkling a large red light curtain, and the little spiritual light in the red light curtain landed on the five-color army sergeants present, making some of the sergeants appear red lotus patterns on the spot, and the whole person also became a surge in combat power, brave and incomparable, and his own breath was like a mad demon, like Shura, and even faintly connected with the red lotus battle array of the eight heavenless divisions in front of him.
This is Wu Hao igniting Dao soldiers on a large scale.
This kind of ignition must be done entirely voluntarily by the person who is being initiated.
At this time, the soldiers on the battlefield are in danger, especially the five-color army, many of them have fallen into a desperate situation. At this time, even a life-saving straw will be tightly grasped, and there is a way to immediately improve combat power and get rid of death, and most people know how to choose.
There are also people who don't know how to choose, but they will soon be eliminated by the brutal battlefield.
At this time, the two military advisors, Snow Lotus Holy Maiden and Huanglong Zhenren, who saw the clues, couldn't help but protest to Wu Hao. Because Wu Hao's attitude is already obvious, he borrows troops because he wants to "borrow but not return", and wants to swallow the entire five-color army alone!
Wu Hao also knew that he was doing something to pit his allies. However, he had already tried it out, these two didn't think too much about the 50,000 soldiers, so they proposed some exchange of interests, inviting them to be the guest elders of the Peerless Heaven City, and they had the right to enter and leave the Peerless City without the entrance fee.
In addition, if the two of them settle in Peerless Heaven City, Wu Hao can also provide a lot of preferential conditions.
Both the Snow Lotus Sect and the Yellow Lotus Dao are both Lingnan sects, and they are also inextricably linked with the Red Lotus Sect. Wu Hao's doing this can be regarded as attracting investment.
After all, Absolute Heaven City is still in the initial stage, and the current concession is for better benefits.
After negotiating the conditions, Wu Hao's actions to turn Dao soldiers into soldiers became even more unscrupulous.
As one aura after another came, more and more sergeants were choosing between life and death. They were originally instruments of the royal family, but now they have only become stronger tools.
However, those people of the hundred clans, as well as the recruited scattered cultivators and rangers, were a little hesitant and unwilling to accept the light of the light.
For these people, Wu Hao also let them go.
As long as they can survive this cruel battlefield, they are all useful talents, even if they have their own ideas, they will be tolerated by him.
As for the disciples of the Red Lotus Sect who had been trained in the Five-Color Army, they were consciously supported by the Red Lotus Dao soldiers, and they had never patronized the Spiritual Light.
With the successful transformation of the Red Lotus Dao soldiers one by one, the situation on the battlefield has undergone some changes.
After the ignition is successful, it cannot make a person's combat power change drastically, but it can make him become fearless of death and more suitable for the battlefield environment here.
Moreover, the effect of the Blood and Fire Shura Dao will also be blessed on the Dao soldiers, and the bloodsucking, critical hits, and the evil qi of the Shura Dao will gradually cause qualitative changes as the Red Lotus Battle Array activates on the sergeants one by one.
After Xiao Li led the cavalry to charge for a while, he found that he was faintly unable to rush. He himself was entangled by the Yaksha King who had reconnected his ass.
These Lingnan soldiers are really weird, the more they are injured, the more violent they become, and they can slowly recover from their injuries as they fight.
Dugu has an overview of the overall situation, and knows that the good situation before this goes on is about to be lost for a while. So he began to order Zhu Jian's personal guards to attack and cover the evacuation of the cavalry.
The fighting quality of the sergeants is far from being comparable to that of Lingnan, and even if they retreat, they are cross-covered, and the arrangement is not chaotic at all. Even if nearly half of the Five-Color Army had been transformed into Red Lotus Dao soldiers, and their combat power had skyrocketed, they had not been able to take much advantage in the pursuit.
Soon after, the army retreated into the fortress of Kunwu and fell on the heavy dragonstone at the gate of the city.
Looking at this posture, they have already planned to hold the fortress and not attack easily.
Seeing that the southern army of Daqian Town had been repulsed, the five-color army let out a series of earth-shattering cheers.
This battle was extremely difficult for them, and every moment on the battlefield just now seemed to be between life and death, and the terrifying pressure could finally be released to their heart's content.
But at this time, they received the order of the generalissimo to continue to attack and attack the city overnight!
Of course, the five-color army, which was already nearly half of the Red Lotus Dao soldiers, would not disobey Wu Hao's will, and rushed towards the Kunwu fortress with a little trimming.
Even those who had not yet been ignited were reluctant, and under the dangerous gaze of the soldiers around them, they had to be coerced and rushed to the city.
At this time, in the rear of the military formation, the two military advisors were trying to persuade Wu Hao.
There is some truth in what they say.
The battle just now seemed to be short, but the biggest casualties had already appeared when the two armies had just clashed.
In this battle, the total of more than 100,000 five-color troops was reduced by tens of thousands, and even Wu Hao's Peerless Eight Divisions lost hundreds because they undertook the most difficult tasks.
Even if they were still alive, many were seriously injured and completely incapacitated. Those who were not injured were also exhausted and lost the strength to fight again.
There are only some peerless Eight Divisions and elite Red Lotus Dao soldiers, because they enjoy the bloodsucking effect of killing the enemy, and they still maintain their peak combat power.
In this case, the entire army is half crippled, how can it attack the opponent's fortified city?
Facing the doubts of the two military advisors, Wu Hao smiled mysteriously.
Then he withdrew the karmic fire red lotus and pointed at the sky.
Behind him, at the Peerless City on the top of Kunwu Mountain, the main immortal apricot swayed gently, flashing with a strange rhythm.
In the sky, clouds and wind converged, and there was a faint flash of thunder.
After a while, a light rain began to fall.
The raindrops fell on the Snow Lotus Holy Maiden, which lifted her spirits!
"This Rain ......"
She suddenly looked towards the battlefield, only to see that the declining force sergeants were rapidly recovering in the rain, and even many people's injuries were disappearing at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.
The morale of the entire five-color army was high again, almost far higher than it had been before the battle.
Seeing this cloud-over-the-rain and earth-changing means, the Snow Lotus Holy Maiden was silent.
She had realized that this battle, from the beginning, would not go the way she thought it would go.
I'm afraid that the era that belongs to the Red Lotus Sect is coming!
