Chapter 254 Soldiers come to Houting County

  Standing alone on the slightly dilapidated gate tower, the barbarian Yiwang heard the loud cheers of the holy people.

  The capture of this huge city that has prevented the saints from going south for thousands of years has made all the saints almost crazy.

  Countless people shouted his name, and his name resounded throughout Beifeng City.

  But there was no joy on the face of the barbarian Yi Wang, and he looked at the endless Great Yan military camp in the distance with a blank expression.

  The violent snowstorm did not hinder his sight at all, and he could even see clearly the patterns of the stone bricks on the simple camps.

   “Crack——”

   “Crack——”

  Suddenly came the footsteps of stepping on the snow, and a low and hoarse voice sounded from the side of the barbarian king Yi, with a smile:

   “King, don’t you want to celebrate? Now many people of our holy clan have put you on a par with the ancestor gods.”

  The barbarian king turned his eyes back:

  ”Zayer, the ancestor gods don’t exist. The so-called ancestor gods are just a sustenance fabricated by our saints in the desperate snowfield.”

   “.” Zaya’s ferocious face, which was originally smiling, froze when he heard the words.

  The barbarian Yi Wang withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the Dayan camp outside the city. His voice was emotionless:

   “You came to see me, what’s the matter?”

  As a person who grew up with the barbarian Yi Wang, Zaye saw that the other party was very worried, so he restrained his smile. Su Shenghui reported:

  ”The various tribes of the Holy Clan have taken over the Beifeng City, and the gains and losses have been counted by the high priest. Please take a look.”

  The barbarian Yi Wang took it without looking at it, and directly ordered:

   “If you have nothing else to do, Zaye, you can go down first, and let the king stay alone for a while.”

  Zayer quickly said in a low voice when he saw this:

   “King, there is one more thing.”

   “Say.”

   “Da Yan sent an envoy to see you.”

  “.”

  The barbarian Yi Wang was silent for a moment, and finally there was a touch of relief in his blue eyes:

   “Bring him here.”

  The cold wind is like a knife, and it hurts when it stabs people’s faces.

  Wrapped in a thick fur coat, Xu Yuan looked at the wind and snow outside the cave, and the military briefing in his hand suddenly ignited with blood and turned into a handful of ashes.

  Lou Ji gave him the latest briefing,

  The city was closed to the north and fell completely. Wu Yuan took a few remnants of soldiers and went north to Houting County.

  Looking out from the cave, the waterfall-like blizzard buried everything in the wild under the boundless white.

  The cave where Xu Yuan and Lou Ji are now is the contact point established by the Black Scale Guard in the snowfield, and it can also be said to be a safe house.

   There is a spirit avoidance array to prevent the detection of mind and soul, and a communication crystal for long-distance communication.

  The northern border has been fighting for many years, and the success or failure of a war depends to a large extent on the amount of information obtained by both sides.

  The establishment of this kind of contact point can enable scouts or high-level cultivators to report the detected enemy situation to the rear camp at the first time.

  Of course, this kind of thing is not unique to the Black Scale Guard. Many forces have built such caves or basements in the snow fields in the north.

  It’s a pity that these contact points were basically destroyed when the barbarians went south last time.

   It’s not that the barbarians have good hands and eyes and can accurately find out the location of these contact points in the vast snowfield, but it’s simply because all parties in the Great Yan are playing tricks on each other to give the barbarians accurate reports.

  According to Lou Ji, their Black Scale Guard used to have nearly ten contact points in various places in the snow field, but now there are only two left.

  One is in the mountains next to the Beifeng Plain, and the other is where Xu Yuan and the others are now, in the mountains a hundred miles northeast of Houting County.

   “Long Sky.”

  With a soft call, Xu Yuan looked back after hearing the words.

  A plump figure walked out slowly from the shadow of the cave with a slender waist and plump buttocks, and smiled softly:

   “That little girl Wu Yuan doesn’t seem to touch what you left behind.”

  Xu Yuan came back to his senses after hearing the words, and looked at Lou Ji with a slight smile:

  ”Although there is a lot of information missing, Li Qingyan is a smart woman, she should be able to see something.”

  When Lou Ji heard his praise for her, she bent her eyes and smiled:

   “It seems that these days, Chang Tianyou gets along with her fairly happily?”

  Xu Yuan subconsciously recalled the seductive tricks of that bad woman, smiled lightly and shook his head:

   “It’s not bad, a very powerful woman.”

   paused,

  Xu Yuan glanced into the darkness behind Lou Ji and asked:

   “Sister, has the Zongmen reached an agreement with the barbarians?”

  “.”

  After pondering for a moment, Lou Ji put her arms around her chest, raised a slender index finger and tapped her fair chin, a pair of green pupils glowed like a snake letter:

  ”Well, an agreement should have been reached, but the two sides do not have a basis for mutual trust, and they are still deadlocked up to now.”

   “The basis of mutual trust?”

  Xu Yuan murmured, thinking about the cause and effect in his heart, and was a little speechless.

  Even if the Zongmen wanted to let the barbarians go north by way, the barbarian king did not dare to trust the Zongmen.

  The barbarian king probably knows the purpose of the sect very well, and also knows that the sect does not want the barbarian strength to be too weak, but this is a matter of losing his head, and it is the heads of most of the soldiers who can fight.

  The barbarian Yi Wang didn’t know that the sect didn’t have Yunqi bullets.

  In case when they detour, Zongmen suddenly throws a “cloud energy bomb” without talking about Wude, and all the snow clouds will be dispersed, and the barbarians must be forced to fight with Zongmen A field battle.

  And fight the field decisive battle with the Yan elite.

   ponder a little,

  Xu Yuan exhaled a breath of white mist, looked at Lou Ji and asked:

   “Sister, how long would it take you to drive from Beifeng to Dali Mountain?”

  Lou Ji didn’t even think about it, so she went directly to:

  ”If you don’t cover up your breath, you can go all out for half a day, but if you want to cover up your breath, it will take at least two days, or even longer.”

  “Two days”

  Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and murmured, then smiled and said, “Five days have passed since the barbarian soldiers came to the city, and that barbarian king should be very clear that he doesn’t have enough time left. A choice has to be made as soon as possible.”

  Lou Ji looked at Xu Yuan with a smile in her eyes when she heard the words, and said:

   “Oh? What choice?”

  Xu Yuan smiled and exhaled a mouthful of white mist, looking at the snow outside:

  ”Would you choose to put all your eggs in one basket and defend Beifeng City, or choose to trust Zongmen completely and go to Houting County to trap Wu Chenghou and Mr. Zong to death in the northern border.”

  Speaking of which,

  Xu Yuan’s eyes showed a hint of amusement, but he did not continue.

  As a senior intelligence worker, Lou Ji was naturally able to keenly observe the change in Xu Yuan’s expression, and she was slightly dissatisfied and grabbed the soft flesh on his waist:

   “Chang Tian, ​​finish your sentence if you have something to say, and I want to keep something with my sister?”

  Xu Yuan took a breath from the pain in his waist, and quickly took a step back:

  ”Stop, stop, stop, I said, I said, it’s just a possibility.”

   “Heh” Lou Ji chuckled and let go of her hand.

  Xu Yuan rubbed his waist and said with a helpless smile:

   “The barbarian king is a lunatic, and the behavior of a lunatic cannot be speculated by common sense.”

  “.”

  Lou Ji’s eyes flickered slightly, and she understood instantly, and said softly:

   “Changtian, what do you mean to say that the barbarian alien king is likely to choose neither path?”

  Xu Yuan nodded and asked:

   “Sister, what do you think of the protection ability of the camp built by the elite of the Zongmen in the north of Beifeng City?”

  Lou Ji recalled a little after hearing the words, bent her eyes and smiled and said:

   “It’s all silver pewter tips.”

  Pause for a moment, Lou Ji changed the subject:

  ”But Changtian, although these sects are disgusting, they still have many capable people in their army. The barbarian king should not choose to take risks.”

  Xu Yuan shook his head, grinned, and asked:

   “It would be a surprise if they dog-eat-dog. If not, why don’t we follow the original plan? Yuan Hao has already gone to the north of Houting County to wait, knowing that he can kill people, that psychopath Excited.”

   While talking, Xu Yuan rubbed his arms, shivered, turned and walked towards the inside of the cave:

  “It’s really cold here”

  Lou Ji looked at his back, moved slightly and slowly followed:

   “Changtian, that old guy Zong Qingsheng said that Wu Chenghou’s Beifeng Army didn’t come down with him.”

  Xu Yuan stopped and turned his eyes:

   “Mr. Zong didn’t persuade him?”

   It is indeed a technical job to persuade Wu Chenghou to go south without exposing Tianxun Yuanjing.

  However, for people at the level of Zong Qingsheng and Wu Chenghou, all behaviors can basically be understood as “war sense”.

  After all, Zong Qingsheng relied on this “sense of war” to lay an ambush in advance to help Li Qingyan break the siege of Dali Mountain.

  Thinking, Xu Yuan hesitated and said:

   “If we only rely on our 150,000 black scale army, it should be difficult to maintain the defense line in Houting County.”

   Lou Ji raised her hand and pinched Xu Yuan’s serious face when she heard the words, and said with a smile:

  ”Don’t worry, sister, I only said that Wu Chenghou didn’t go south, and I didn’t say that his Beifeng army didn’t go south. Sheng went south, and when he reached Houting County, he was handed over to Wu Yuan to command.”

  Xu Yuan’s mind was slightly relieved, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

  It seems that Mr. Zong succeeded in persuading that Wu Chenghou, but if this is the case, why did Wu Chenghou still keep two towns of soldiers and horses in the northern snowfield.

  The southern side is going to concentrate its forces for a grand strategic decisive battle, and the lion fights the rabbit with all its strength. Wu Chenghou should understand better than him.

   Lou Ji said softly:

   “Changtian, don’t think too much, Wu Chenghou must have his reasons for doing this, we just need to do our own thing well.”

  Be quiet for a moment

  Xu Yuan exhaled, walked to the table inside the cave and sat down, asking:

   “How long will it take for our people to reach the north of Houting County?”

   “It has arrived.”

   “What?”

   “Well, the black-scale iron cavalry and the Beifeng iron cavalry are a little faster than the heavy infantry~”
