"Where is this place?"

"Go back to Grand Master, the name of this place is Juelong Ridge."

After hearing this and looking at the steep and dangerous mountains in front of him, Wen Zhong was speechless for a moment.

In his mind, he remembered what his master told him before going down the mountain.

'You will never encounter the word "absolute" in your life.'

If the army is defeated here today, it may be the end of the road for me.

Wen Zhong's mind was in chaos, and his mood fell to the lowest point.

Because Tu Xingsun continued to harass the logistics, Chengtang's army lacked military supplies and food. After losing consecutive battles, even eating became a problem.

Most of the fellow Taoists invited by Shen Gongbao had been damaged, and the national master had to run to find helpers. As a result, Wen Zhong now had no one around him. After a long period of hard support, he almost couldn't hold himself tight.

This kind of emotion came to Juelong Ridge again, and I was so frustrated that I almost despaired.

"Master!"

A military academy loudly reported, "There is a large plume of smoke and dust in the east, and there may be a large army approaching."

"Hahahahaha~~~" Wen Zhong laughed angrily, "It came so fast. If that's the case, then let's die here today!"

Under the strong emotional stimulation, Master Wen Zhong even forgot some basic common sense.

Until the military academy next to me said in a low voice, "Grand Master, the large amount of smoke and dust is coming from the east."

"East...huh?!"

Xiqi is in the west, and the army coming from the east...

Not long after, a sentinel hurriedly came to report, "Grand Master, Chaoge's reinforcements are here!"

Chengtang's troops, who were originally demoralized, were immediately cheered up.

Wen Zhong also showed a rare smile and rode on the black jade unicorn, "Let's go and see who is coming."

"King Wu Cheng?!"

"Master Wen!!"

Huang Feihu, who was riding a five-color sacred bull, rushed up eagerly and saluted Wen Zhong, "Huang is late."

Huang Feihu in the original work had already escaped from Chaoge with his family and defected to Xiqi.

But in this world, because Li Yunze killed the nine-tailed vixen in advance, Huang Feihu's wife and Concubine Huang in the palace were naturally alive and well and not killed.

The relatives at home are fine and even doing well, and the king has taken the initiative to delegate power, improving productivity and living standards.

Huang Feihu, who was originally loyal to Chengtang, naturally still worked for Chaoge.

This time Li Yunze sent reinforcements, appointing him as the commander of the reinforcements.

"Okay, okay." Wen Zhong was excited, "It's great that King Wu Cheng can come!"

Reinforcements entered the camp one after another, military doctors treated the wounded, and various supplies were distributed in a steady stream. Chengtang's soldiers and horses, who had previously been low in morale, quickly regained their vitality.

"I came a little late this time, mainly because it took too much time to collect supplies."

After hearing this, Wen Zhong hurriedly said, "But too much military resources have been collected, so the rear is unstable? It's all my fault, and I lost the battle..."

"That's not true." Huang Feihu waved his hands repeatedly. "Since the reform of Dashang, there are countless supplies of all kinds. It is easy to raise food, grass and military supplies. Naturally, it will not have any impact on people's livelihood."

"The reason why I came late is because I was waiting for cement."

"Forehead..."

Wen Zhong was surprised when he heard this: "Cement? What is cement?"

"The king said it." Huang Feihu said with a smile, "Cement is softened stone. This thing is specially prepared for Tu Xingsun. It can turn any underground place into a stone house."

Wen Zhong has led troops for many years, so he naturally understands military strategy.

To put it bluntly, Tu Xingsun's skill is nothing more than digging holes underground.

Master Wen also knew that as long as the general's camp was set up in a rocky mountainous area, Tu Xingsun's abilities would be greatly restricted.

But the problem is that if you set up in a mountainous area, you are basically far away from the water source.

If the army is out and away from the water source, that is the way to death.

Now that he learned that this good thing was available, Master Wen was overjoyed and said, "That's great."

Soon the two began to discuss where to choose to finish off Tu Xingsun.

Judging from the abilities of the two of them, as long as they can restrain something, the arrangement will naturally be perfect.

At Xiqi Camp, Tu Xingsun, who was very drunk, yelled with his tongue hanging out, "Don't worry, Xibohou, I will definitely help you destroy Chengtang's army... burp~~~"

The surrounding generals, no matter what they were thinking in their hearts, were all talking with bright tongues, and they kept toasting to Tu Xingsun and saying complimentary words.

Because at this moment, Xiqi's army really relied on Tu Xingsun's unique ability to defeat Wen Zhong one after another and gain an advantage.

Perhaps only the young Yang Jian, Lei Zhenzi and others would truly feel that Tu Xingsun's work was beautiful.

As for the others, hehe~~~If the king of Chaoge hadn't wanted to abolish slavery, they would have gone crazy and followed Xiqi in rebellion.

Ji Chang promised with a smile on his face, "You have done well, and my daughter admires you very much. When I die, I can choose one of my daughters to marry you."

For Ji Chang, who has hundreds of daughters, this is not a problem at all.

Using a daughter to win over a strong man is a huge profit.

Jiang Ziya drank silently without saying a word.

Because Xibohou Jichang is still there, and his prestige, ability, and skills are all top-notch, so he can arrange things properly by himself, and there is no need for him at all.

I don't want to use it either.

Because Jiang Ziya was clearly sent by Chan Jiao to assist Ji Fa in achieving great achievements, and he was an enemy to Ji Chang who was still in power.

Therefore, although on the surface, Ji Chang was very polite to Jiang Ziya, in fact, he did not give him any power at all.

Especially military power.

Not only Jiang Ziya, but also Ji Fa.

Ji Chang's caution and caution made everyone in Chanjiao very dissatisfied, but it was not easy to take action directly.

After all, he is Xibohou. If you touch him, it is not as good as if you touch Boyikao. This will contaminate the cause and effect.

Now, all we can do is wait for the battle with Chengtang and seize the opportunity to bury the trap.

"Don't worry, Xibohou."

Tu Xingsun patted his chest and said, "Wen Zhong's place is dead-end. They only have food and grass left for three days at most. At that time, if there is another Tudun attack, the whole army will inevitably collapse."

This is indeed true. All the military generals have expressed their stance that after the war, those prisoners with high quality will be allocated to them first, and the competition for fine iron tools will begin now.

As for the main force of Chengtang's army being former slaves who had been stripped of their slave status, they wanted to turn these former slaves into slaves again, but they turned a blind eye whether they would get support.

At this time, Xiqi's army was actually a large alliance of slave owners. Xibohou, the largest slave owner, became the leader of everyone.

They coveted the young strength of Chengtang's army, and they coveted the iron weapons. Even before they finally won the battle, they were already eager to share the spoils.

Monks such as Ran Deng Taoist don't care about these things in the human world.

What they are thinking about now is how to deal with Jie Jiao's counterattack.

Taoist Ran Deng glanced at the energetic Xi ​​Bohou and was already thinking about how to make him exit.

After all, Xibohou is not willing to give up his position as the Human Emperor. How can he do this if he raises an unfamiliar dog that is disobedient?

These people in the Xiqi camp never thought, or were unwilling to think about it, that they were facing the entire Chengtang, not just Wen Zhong's troops.

A few days later, Xiqi's side thought that Wen Zhong's side had run out of food, and immediately ordered a general attack.

The local people, familiar with the situation, led Xiqi's elite troops and dug tunnels directly into the camp, preparing to create a central flower.

Then... "What is this? Why are there stones?"

Tu Xingsun, who opened the earth, felt puzzled when he saw the strange stone slab appearing in front of him.

But that's it. With his cultivation level, he can naturally break through rocks and move forward. At most, it will only take a little longer.

The stone slab in front of me was broken, and what appeared in front of me was a dark passage.

Tu Xingsun showed no fear and rushed straight into the passage.

After walking for more than a hundred feet, Tu Xingsun finally looked confused. This passage was surrounded by smooth stone slabs that he had never seen before. What the hell is this place?

Suddenly his eyes lit up, and Tu Xingsun walked out of the passage and came into a stone room about ten feet wide.

"Where is this?"

"This is your cemetery."

When Tu Xingsun heard this, he turned around suddenly and stared at Li Yunze who appeared in front of him at some point. "Who are you?"

"So much nonsense."

Li Yunze waved his hand and appeared in front of Tu Xingsun in a flash.
