Chapter 567: The Position of the City Lord
The murderous aura soared into the sky, and the sun-breaking armor was terrifying.
Thirty-bow huge troop carriers rumbled over the sky above Mingnuma City, and the murderous Chongming army poured out of the ship and slaughtered the ghost army on the opposite side. On the main ship, a handsome flag as high as 20 zhang is waved in the wind, embroidered with a big "Du" character on it, and a row of small characters on the bottom: Tiance Palace Dance. Next to the handsome flag stands a slightly shorter golden flag, embroidered with the word "Hou" of a dragon flying and phoenix dancing, and the reverse side is a pattern of a sword and a sword.
Only the golden generals enjoy the honor of using the golden flag, throughout the entire Chongming Continent, there is only one golden general, that is, Hou Xin from the golden general's family, this time it was he who went out in person.
I saw an old man with flying hair holding the order flag in his hand, his eyes looking down like an eagle, and his powerful spiritual power covered the entire huge battlefield. Orders were issued one by one from the command flags in the old man's hand, and the Chongming army was in a strict formation, like an unstoppable torrent, advancing forward without hurry, and forcing the ghost army to retreat with a strong momentum.
Cold sweat broke out in the palms of Ghost King Lie's hands, at first he didn't look down on the so-called war generals among human cultivators, because Fang Yunshan, the silver war general of Xingchen Continent, had never won against his father once, so much so that he thought that war generals were just like that.
It wasn't until now that Ghost Wang Lie finally realized the horror of the golden general, and the command of more than 100,000 people was like a finger, from attack to defense, without any flaws.
"The Golden Warlord really lives up to his reputation!" Ghost Governor Lu Ge sighed.
Ghost Wang Lie asked in a deep voice: "Lord Lu Ge, if my father is against this Hou Xin, what are the odds?"
Lu Ge pondered for a while before saying: "The level of the commander of the Shuai Seat and this Hou Xin has reached the peak, as long as one side does not make serious mistakes, it is absolutely difficult for the other party to have a chance, the final result is probably five or five, whoever has the advantage of the army has a greater chance of winning, of course, there are many factors that affect the result, such as geographical advantage and time!"
The hot figure next to him said coldly: "Shuai Zuo crisscrosses the entire Xingchen Continent, and no one is his enemy, even that Fang Yunshan died in the hands of Shuai Zuo!"
Lu Ge shook his head and said: "Fang Yunshan is only a silver general, but this Hou Xin is a golden general, you must know that in the entire human race, there are only two or three people who have the title of golden general!"
At this time, the battle formation of the ghost army has begun to run out, and the defense line is constantly shrinking by the Chongming army, and if it continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before it is defeated. Listening to the constant urgency of the ghost general next to him, Ghost King Lie's face gradually sank, and asked, "Why hasn't Eclipse's 100,000 army arrived yet!"
"Young marshal, my subordinates have already sent troops to urge Lord Ghost King Halberd, there should be news soon!" said a general next to him.
Ghost King Lie couldn't help but feel a little relieved when he heard this!
At this moment, a ghost lieutenant came to him with a ghost clan scout, and reported with an ugly face: "Young marshal, something is wrong!"
Ghost Wang Lie's heart couldn't help but sink and asked, "What happened?"
"There is a human cultivator who has attacked and destroyed the newly built secret passage, and Lord Eclipse's reinforcements can't come!"
As soon as these words came out, all the ghost generals in the vicinity suddenly looked like ashes, and the ghost king Lie was even more like falling into an ice cellar, grabbing the scout and saying in a cold voice: "What's the matter? Where is that bastard in the ghost king halberd?"
The scout trembled with fright, and said tremblingly: "An extremely powerful human cultivator sneaked in, destroyed the secret path while everyone was unprepared, and killed all the craftsmen, Lord Ghost King Halberd chased and killed that person in a fit of anger, but he lost the battle and was waiting for the young marshal to fall fifty miles away!"
Ghost Wang Lie's pair of bloody eyes were full of murderous aura, and as soon as the ghost power spit out, he pinched off the scout's neck, and scolded several times in a rage!
"Young marshal, what now?" asked Totoku cautiously.
Ghost Wang Lie looked up at the tragic battlefield, his fists clenched tightly, what else could he do, the backup was cut off, and now the only way to retreat was to retreat.
"Young marshal, you go first, and your subordinates will lead the palace!" said a ghost general.
Ghost Wang Lie gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Withdraw!" After speaking, he quickly withdrew with five thousand personal guards.
It's really feng shui in turn, last time the ghost Wang Lie planned to kill Du Runan's 100,000 army, and chased it all the way to Chongming Continent, this time it was his turn to be chased and killed like a lost dog.
Du Wu and Hou Xin were reluctant to give up until they reached the Boundary River, killing nearly 60,000 ghost clans, which was the biggest victory for the cultivators so far. If it weren't for the timely arrival of Eclipse's 100,000 ghost army, I'm afraid that even the ghost king would have fallen in this battle.
The ghost army of more than 100,000 and the Chongming army of more than 100,000 faced each other across the boundary river of 30,000 miles.
......
As soon as Wei An saw Chu Jun, he pounced, gave him a bear hug with one hand, and said excitedly: "Chu Jun, you are not dead yet!"
Chu Jun rewarded Wei An with a slap and said with a smile: "You want me to die!"
Zhen Yan looked at the two of them with a smile, and called sweetly: "Big brother!"
Chu Jun slapped Zhen Yan up and down, nodded and said, "Well, Sister Yan is beautiful again, it seems that Wei An has irrigated you well!"
Zhen Yan was originally petite and delicate, but since she gave birth to a child, she has become more and more plump, full of red light, and even more delicate.
"Big brother is making fun of people!" Zhen Yan said shyly.
"Sister Zhen is really better looking than before!" Xiao Xiao interjected.
Zhen Yan couldn't help but frown, and said with a smile: "How can Sister Zhen catch up with Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao is now going to catch up with Sister-in-law Zhao Yu!"
Xiao Xiao glanced at someone happily when he heard this, Chu Jun couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and asked, "Why are you here too?"
Wei An rolled his eyes and said: "At the beginning, when I heard that you won the battle outside Tiankui City, Yan Mei and I were happy for you, but it didn't take long for the news that the eldest prince was wiped out, and we all thought you were hanging, so this time I plan to follow His Royal Highness the palace master to avenge you, and by the way, collect the body for you to worship!"
"!" Chu Jun couldn't help but laugh and scolded, but there was a hint of emotion in his eyes, as soon as Zhen Yan gave birth, the two couples came in person, and this kind of friendship really has nothing to say.
Zhen Yan smiled: "I know that my eldest brother is very capable, and he will definitely be fine!"
"Hehe, that's just what I heard!"
Wei An smiled, suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "By the way, Miao Kai's goods are also here, that guy thought you were hanging, so he killed the ghost clan and called it ruthless, now I don't know where to run, it is possible that he has chased after the defeated army of the ghost clan and crossed the boundary river!"
Chu Jun spread his hands with a wry smile, he always thought that the biggest gain from entering the eighteenth layer last time was to obtain Luo Heng and Miao Kai, a group of friends who were close to each other, followed by the promotion of the Burning Sun Technique and the Burning Moon Technique.
"Haha, Sect Master Chu, we meet again, and the demeanor is especially better than in the past!" I saw a person walking over with his big sleeves fluttering, it was Liu Yong, the great master of Tiance Palace, and next to him was Dao Zhengming.
Chu Jun couldn't help but be a little surprised, and took two steps and said with a smile: "It turned out to be two great strategists!"
Liu Yong flicked his long sleeves elegantly and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Palace Master is invited, please see the sect master!"
This time, the eldest prince's 100,000 army was exhausted, and only Chu Jun shone brightly, because of this, Chu Jun's merits were even more shocking, and this time the reward was a foregone conclusion.
Chu Jun handed over the sect alliance to Luo Heng to lead temporarily, and then followed Liu Yong and Dao Zhengming to Du Wu's troop carrier.
It's been nearly two years, Du Wu still has short hair, tight and short, and hasn't changed much, but his temperament is more solid, and his eyebrows are still heroic.
When the two met, they just greeted each other very indifferently, Chu Jun didn't stutter, Du Wu didn't wrap up, and the relationship between the two was really incomprehensible to outsiders. After the two greeted each other, Du Wu let Chu Jun sit down and stopped talking to him, Chu Jun didn't know what she was looking for, so he had to sit patiently.
The troop transport ship flew in the direction of Mingnuma Castle, and it reached the sky above Mingnuma Castle in about two hours. Chu Jun stood on the side of the boat and looked down, and saw that there were already a large number of people waiting below!
The troop transport ship slowly landed in the city lord's mansion, Chu Jun and a group of generals followed Du Wu and got off the boat, and Du Runan and Du Ruhui personally led people to greet them.
The people next to Du Wu are all from the Tiance Palace, all of them are proud, and their faces are beaming. This time, the eldest prince was wiped out, but His Royal Highness the palace lord sent troops to victory, not only relieved the siege of Mingnuma City, but also slashed and killed sixty or seventy thousand ghost clans, and drove the ghost army back to Xingchen Continent. In this way, Tiance Palace is bound to rise and press down the eldest prince.
"Congratulations to the dancing sister on her success!" Du Ruhui stepped forward to congratulate.
Du Wu nodded indifferently and said, "As long as the two brothers are fine!"
Du Runan and Du Ruhui couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, after all, it was not glorious to lose the battle, and they were chased like lost dogs, and Zuihou wanted his sister to come to the rescue.
"Where is the old general Hou Xin?" Du Runan said lightly.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he mentioned Hou Xin, just to remind everyone that this victory was fought by Hou Xin, the golden warrior of others, and it was not the credit of you Du Wu alone. Du Wu replied disapprerovingly: "The army is stationed near the Jiehe, and Senior General Hou is still in command of the army, and he will return to Mingnuma City in the next day!"
Chu Jun was not interested in the open and secret battles between the Du family's brothers and sisters, and looked around boredly.
A group of people surrounded Du Wu and the others into the main hall, and after everyone sat down, Du Wu said straight to the point: "Qi Guang, the city lord of Mingnuma City, has died in battle, Mingnuma City is now an important stronghold on the front line, in order to cooperate with the operation of the army, a new city lord must be established immediately, and the palace has reported to his father to temporarily let Chu Jun take over the position of the city lord!"
"What!" Du Runan and Du Ruhui couldn't help blurting out, and Chu Jun was even more stunned.
The hall was so quiet that it was audible that a needle could be dropped, and after a long while, Du Runan frowned and said, "Dancing girl, I'm afraid this is not suitable!"
