Chapter 156: Heavenly Warrior (I)
In the rear of Song Zheng, King Ping Tian swallowed the servants and guards in one bite, and walked step by step alone, his feet were plain but he could shrink into inches, and easily followed.
She thought thoughtfully: the true dragon void spirit, and it is also a true dragon void spirit with three heads and three tails. In this way, will you continue to advance the Nine Heads and Nine Tails in the future?
The human race is really going to be chaotic, so the ethereal spirits of "Chenyue" have appeared.
Her heart moved: if that were the case, it seemed that the king would not have to be so cautious.
......
Two days later, on the border of Fuzhou Prefecture, there was a fierce Xiujun waiting in array against the scorching sun.
The military formation totaled 1,000 people, the military appearance was neat, standing straight and motionless in the sun, Tonghaiwei Qianhu Mingtang and his subordinates waited patiently at the front of the military formation, and glanced at the official road from time to time.
Hu Mingtang has some skills, and in a gentle township like Jiangnan, it is indeed not easy to be able to train his subordinates with a thousand Haiwei so refined.
He also knows his ability, so this time Lord Song is coming to Fuzhou, and he naturally wants to show his most proud results.
And he led the army to the state border in person to show his "courtesy" to Lord Song.
Towards noon, a group came from afar, and there was a faint rumbling sound of rolling thunder. Hu Mingtang and his subordinates were a little strange, and they looked at him from afar and said in a suspicious tone: "Is it that this Qianhu is mistaken, Lord Song brought a cavalry?
Hundreds of subordinates chattered: "My lord also saw it, and my subordinates thought I was wrong." β
"That's a fighting beast cultivator, we also have a fighting beast cultivator in Jiangnan?"
No one is bored to say that the beast warrior is a dynasty weapon, and according to the regulations, no army can have a beast warrior except the forbidden army.
The team didn't look fast, but it didn't take long to get closer.
Although the military formation was not deliberately launched, the Silkworm Thunder Tiger cooperated with the deterrent effect of the "Beast King Phase" to launch, and the original neat and solemn momentum of the Tonghai Weiti Battalion was instantly scattered.
Hu Mingtang sensed something, and looked back: the military formation was still that military formation, the cultivators were still those cultivators, they were still standing straight, and they didn't even make small movements.
But it doesn't have the kind of fierce and capable momentum just now.
He guessed that it might be related to Lord Song's beast fighting and riding horses, but the specific reason was still not understood, so he had to wave his hand: "That's it, let's relax a little......"
Then he took hundreds of households to greet Song Zheng: "Lord Song has worked hard all the way. β
The closer I got, the more I can feel the strength and terrifying of the Silkworm Thunder Tiger Fighting Beast Cultivation Horse, the insect beast is huge, the armor is bright, and the magic weapon is cold.
Hu Mingtang was an eight-foot-tall Angzang man, standing on the ground only up to the knees of the Silkworm Thunder Tiger......
The knights on the insects and beasts have cultivated one by one, far beyond the ordinary dragon guard captain.
He and his subordinates were shocked: Looking at the momentum, I am afraid that the beast cultivators of the Jingshi Forbidden Army are not opponents.
Song Zheng also rode a silkworm thunder tiger - not to mention, this insect beast is loyal to its owner and very obedient, with a large body and a spacious back, and the beast saddle is like a topless sedan chair, which is much more comfortable to sit on than to ride a horse.
He waved his hand at Hu Mingtang: "Don't be so polite, lead the way in front and go to Black Python Ridge." β
He pointed to the 1,000-gauge camp again: "There are not so many soldiers and horses, let the brothers go back first, the cavalry around the officer is enough." β
"Yes. Hu Mingtang agreed in a muffled voice, ordered a few cronies to follow, and the rest led Tiying back to Fucheng.
He claimed to have the ability to train soldiers, pulled out his brothers, and wanted to show himself in front of adults, but he didn't expect to be hit head-on, and Lord Song actually had a fighting beast under him.
It's not much yet, his battalion has been demoralized, and it looks no different from an ordinary cultivator.
"Alasβ" he lamented in his heart.
The two parties met, and it took half a day to come to Tianying Mountain at the junction of Fuzhou and Yuzhou.
Black Python Ridge is a high ridge in Tianying Mountain, the area is vast, the mountain shape is like a giant python that rises to the sky, the mountain is full of black rocks, so it is named.
Hu Mingtang saw several figures rushing out of the mountain from a distance, his figure was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help frowning and muttering: "What's the matter?"
He landed and met the men.
When those people saw Hu Mingtang, it was like seeing a savior, and they knelt down with a sad face: "Qianhu, it's useless for me to wait, the Black Python Ridge has been seized by the people of Yuzhou." β
Hu Mingtang frowned, these people were the guards he arranged in the Black Python Ridge.
"What's going on, don't panic, tell the truth. β
"Yuzhou Prefecture Mu Ximen Hong came, with three thousand state soldiers, and couldn't help but occupy the Black Python Ridge. The subordinates stepped forward to reason with them, but Ximen Hong didn't say anything equal to me at all, and ordered his subordinates to forcibly repair and drive us away, saying that Black Python Ridge was also their territory in Yuzhou, and it should be under their jurisdiction. β
Song Zheng also heard it and asked, "Has Yuzhou Long Yiwei ever come forward?"
"I haven't seen Yuzhou Long Yiwei. The hundred households didn't know Song Zheng, but he knew the official uniform, and answered honestly.
At this moment, a jade talisman streamer flew in, Li Sanyan took it, opened it and said to Song Zheng: "My lord, it is a message sent by Long Yiwei of Yuzhou: the news of Black Python Ridge has been leaked, and the state government yamen intends to intervene, let us be careful." β
By the way, he handed over a secret text sent with the jade talisman to Song Zheng, Song Zheng glanced at it, and it read: Ximen Hong, a scholar of literary cultivation for three years, has been in various states in the south of the Yangtze River for ten years, and all of them are county orders. Three years ago, he entered the Beijing Division, and met the first assistant under the recommendation of Bai Guyan, and then the official fortune was prosperous, and he moved to Yuzhou Prefecture for three years.
The feast is the first era name of the Son of Heaven, and it is also the name that the Son of Heaven insists on using.
Yuzhou Long Yiwei sent this cipher and told Song Zheng that Ximen Hong was the first assistant. The battle between Shousuke-sama and the commander-sama is also raging.
The last time Song Zheng transported Xiuzhen materials to the north, Lord Shoufu also wanted to intervene, but unfortunately he couldn't succeed.
Song Zheng remembered this account in his heart, but he didn't expect that this time they would have to make a hindrance from it. Song Zheng secretly sneered.
He rubbed his hand, and the secret culture was ashes, thinking that it was Yuzhou Long Yiwei who leaked the news. He sent an official document to inform Yuzhou Long Yiwei, but he didn't expect to attract a Ximen Hong.
Hu Mingtang cautiously asked, "My lord, what should we do?"
Fear of Simon Hong? That's impossible. Long Yiwei never knew what fear was. But after all, the other party is a governor, and the matter must be handled cautiously so as not to cause trouble that is difficult to solve.
Song Zheng glanced ahead, the mountains were continuous, and the black python ridge could not be seen here. But in the high sky, there was a dark blue void thunderbolt that flickered from time to time.
Most of them are reticulated electric light, but occasionally there is an extremely long one that is thousands of zhang, like a huge lightsaber, cutting through the entire sky.
This is a sign that the void is extremely unstable, if the void is really the Moon River Spirit Realm, it means that it may rush out at any time and merge into the world.
Song Zheng made a decision, knocked on the saddle and said, "Attack, target Black Python Ridge." β
"Yes!" said Leopard Taowei.
Hu Mingtang thought that he had seen the strength of the Silkworm Thunder Tiger Fighting Beast Cultivation Riding on the state border, but this time it was Song Zheng who knocked on the beast saddle and gave the order, with the hidden intention of fighting, and he really saw what the Fighting Beast Cultivation Horse was!
The five hundred beast riders changed in an instant.
He saw that the Heavenly Silkworm Thunder Tiger, who was originally a little lazy and lazy, was in good spirits and exerted all his strength, and he saw that the eyes of the knights flashed with a fierce battle intent - a terrifying momentum of explosion swept and swept into the sky, Hu Mingtang shivered all over, and subconsciously wanted to stay away from this cavalry.
Several hundred households under him also sensed it, looked at each other, and saw the deep shock in each other's eyes.
Hu Mingtang looked at it and said secretly: If there is no military formation, it is obviously not the limit of this cavalry.
He couldn't help but be a little worried: If such a strong army is known to the imperial court, it will be a big crime to kill the head. With such an army, appearing in front of Ximen Hong is tantamount to giving the handle to Lord Shoufu, which is really unwise.
He shook his head secretly, wanting to come forward to persuade him, but he was not familiar with Song Zheng, and he didn't dare to speak.
Boom, boom, boom β
Five hundred fighting beasts rode to attack, all obstacles in the mountains, in front of the powerful riding beasts, they broke into Tianying Mountain, those fierce beasts in the mountains sensed the breath from afar, and fled in advance with their tails.
Song Zheng contacted Xiao Zhen in private, Xiao Zhen had just finished a big battle today, and when he heard Song Zheng's request, he said angrily: "Child's play!"
Song Zheng said: "My lord thinks this matter is not feasible?"
Xiao Zhen thought about the virtue of the Son of Heaven for a while, sighed helplessly, and said, "You are right, the Son of Heaven will agree to it." β
"Okay, I'll go tell the Son of Heaven, don't make too much trouble. β
"Yes, my subordinates have always been kind to others. β
Xiao Zhen said "hehe" to him and cut off contact.
......
At tea time, they had advanced to the periphery of Black Python Ridge.
When I got here, I met the first line of defense of the Yuzhou state soldiers.
Song Zheng sat on the beast and looked at it from a distance, his brows furrowed. The Yuzhou Prefecture soldiers were in good order, and 3,000 people took the Black Python Ridge as the center, followed the surrounding mountain terrain, and arranged three lines of defense according to local conditions.
The defensive line is not simply encircled in a circle, but according to the distance and proximity, the sub-area occupies favorable terrain, and the infantry, cavalry, archers, and strong cultivators cooperate with each other to ensure that any position is attacked, and it will immediately have the ability to launch the most effective counterattack.
"This Ximen Hong knows the affairs of the army, or there is a good general under him. He secretly said in his heart: "It seems that Lord Shoufu has a lot of ambition and wants to meddle in the army. β
The world will be in chaos, if it really comes to that day, all the power without the army in his hands is in the air, and Lord Shoufu must also understand this.
And the three thousand Yuzhou state soldiers under Ximen Hong can be called elite, better than Kong Baiyu and Hu Mingtang's men, in the face of the fierce beast cultivation horses, they were not completely panicked, and they were able to suppress the position.
