Outside Taihe City.
Yan Li stood in front of the city gate, looking at the city that was engulfed in flames, his cold eyes without any emotion.
Behind him, the Chu Ninth Army stood quietly. Except for the occasional snort of the war horses, no one spoke. It was eerily quiet.
Some people may think that Yan Li setting fire to the city is too cruel, but he doesn't think so. War will lead to destruction.
As long as he can cause harm to the Great Qin Kingdom, he doesn't care even if he is reviled by thousands of people. Of course, if he wants to cause greater harm to the Great Qin Kingdom, he must kill millions of citizens of Taihe City. However, he has not yet If he is cruel to that level, maybe he will be in the future.
Half a quarter of an hour ago, the spirit fetus clone general reported the situation in Taihao City. The one hundred thousand soldiers and horses of the Qinglong Legion except for the ambush had been wiped out. At the same time, Marshal Yuan Kaishan, Deputy Commander Chi Chengfeng, and Deputy Commander Dongfang Shenjian were all killed in the battle. .
Wang Yuanshan, the only deputy commander, organized the city guards for defense and prepared for retreat. The general trend was irreversible.
Even if Wang Yuanshan had the ability to save the day, he would not be able to defend Taihao City. Therefore, it was only a matter of time before Taihao City fell.
"General Li, what should we do next?" Gufeng stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"Head to the valley fifty miles away!"
Yan Li said in a deep voice, walked to the mountains of supplies, waved his hand, and thousands of tons of supplies disappeared into thin air.
"What a big storage ring!"
Seeing the sudden disappearance of supplies, Gu Feng and others were secretly surprised, but they thought that Li Shen would take out thirteen high-grade spiritual weapons and give them to them without any frown. A large-capacity storage spiritual ring would be a big deal. What.
With an order, tens of thousands of troops got on their horses and headed straight for the valley on the outskirts where they had woken up.
A quarter of an hour later, the entire army reached the valley.
Yan Lilin stood on the top of a hill, his eyes swept across the whole place, and he said in a deep voice, "Soldiers, do you know how I brought you here?"
When everyone heard this, they all showed confusion. They fell into a deep sleep after drinking in the military camp, but after waking up, they came to this valley. This thing is really unbelievable. This time when they heard Yan Li advance, their eyes All shone with curiosity.
"The reason why I can bring you here! That's because I have a space artifact! You can fit it into it."
"What? Space artifact?"
For a moment, everyone was in an uproar. The artifact was just a legendary item, and they didn't expect it to actually appear in this world.
"This is my biggest secret! The reason why I want to tell you is because we will use this space artifact in the next battle. I will put everyone into it, and then I will enter a certain city and release you. , think about what the result will be!”
Gu Feng reacted very quickly and said excitedly, "If an army of ten thousand suddenly appears, then the enemy must not have expected it. By surprise, our army will be able to easily capture the enemy city."
"That's right! My purpose is to make the Great Qin Empire miserable!" Yan Li nodded.
Originally, everyone had planned to fight to the death, but with this space artifact, they could come and go without a trace. Even if the enemy country of Great Qin sent millions of troops to encircle and suppress them, they would not be afraid.
Yan Li's voice continued, "More than that, the internal time of this artifact is different from that of the outside world. Only one day has passed outside after staying inside for five days. Therefore, you can concentrate on practicing inside!"
Five times the time!
At this moment, it was like dropping a heavy bomb into the army, causing everyone to buzz.
Later, Yan Li called some soldiers to try, first sucking them into the Hunyuan space and then releasing them.
The Hunyuan space is extremely wide. Not to mention 10,000 troops and horses, even 100,000 troops and horses can easily be collected. Then, he distributed the pills collected from Taihe City to allow the soldiers to improve their cultivation.
At the same time, Yan Li gave Gu Feng and Wu Ximing two elixir kings respectively. They are both warriors in the Tianxuan realm. With the help of the elixir king, it should not be difficult to break through to the first level of the secret realm.
A few hours later, Yan Li arrived at Pegasus City, a county-level city far away from Taihe County, and looked for an inn to stay. During the time he was on his way, Taihao City had been attacked by the "Iron-Blooded" Legion of the Great Qin Kingdom. The barbarian "Nine-Headed Bird" army captured.
Deputy Marshal Wang Yuanshan led a small number of soldiers and civilians to evacuate to another county several hundred miles away.
"boom!"
After fighting a great victory, Meng Tu's face was particularly gloomy. For a while, many of the generals under his command did not dare to say a word.
Just now, news came from Taihe City that the entire county was burned down by the Chu Ninth Army, leaving millions of city residents homeless.
You know, to build a county like Xiangtaihe City, you don't know how much manpower, material resources and time it will take to build it. Now, it has been destroyed by the Chu Ninth Army. This is why Mengtu is angry.
"Xu Kang, I order you to lead an army of 50,000 people back to Taihe City. You must annihilate all the Chu Ninth Army!"
"As you command!"
Xu Kang is one of the ten generals of the "Iron Blood" Legion. His cultivation has reached the sixth level of the Secret Realm, and he is highly regarded by Meng Tu.
Although the "Iron Blood" Legion won the final victory this time, the casualties were also quite serious, with as many as 400,000 casualties. It was for this reason that he did not order anyone to pursue Wang Yuanshan.
In addition, after a fierce battle, the army also needed to recuperate. Therefore, he planned to use Taihao City as the foundation. Once he was fully recharged, he would continue to attack other cities.
Pegasus City!
Yan Li had lunch and spent an afternoon conducting inquiries from all sides, and already had a detailed understanding of Pegasus Cheng's power.
There are a thousand city guards, and their cultivation is low, only at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining. The young city guard Hai Yang is only at the Human Xuan realm.
Zishi.
Pegasus City fell into silence. Yan Li flew out of the inn and came to a wide area. With a wave of his hand, tens of thousands of uniformly armored soldiers appeared out of thin air.
An hour ago, he passed the topographic map of Pegasus City to Gu Feng in Hunyuan Space and formulated a simple battle plan.
The plan is divided into three steps.
First, Wu Ximing led a thousand troops to attack the county government office, while Gu Feng personally led two thousand troops to besiege the city guard barracks.
The remaining thousands of soldiers and horses were used as mechanical troops to intercept and kill non-military civilian martial arts masters.
"action!"
As soon as Yan Li finished speaking, the tens of thousands of people split into three groups and headed in three different directions.
Soon, the silent Pegasus City heard loud shouts of killing, and countless city residents woke up from their sleep and fled in all directions.
An hour later, the entire Pegasus City was completely controlled by the Chu Ninth Army.
Because everyone in the Chu Ninth Army had a magic weapon as a weapon, no one died this time except for a few injured during the siege of the city guard.
After taking control of Pegasus City, Yan Li ordered a massive search for money, grain, and various supplies.
Two hours later, after Yan Li brought a large amount of grain, gold and silver into the Hunyuan space, he ordered the city to be burned down.
The raging fire enveloped the entire Pegasus City, and Yan Li left Pegasus City with the Chu Ninth Army.
Over the next ten days.
Da Qin had five county-level cities, and two county-level cities were captured by the Chu Ninth Army. After finally collecting supplies, the cities were burned into a pile of ruins.
This incident alarmed the senior officials of the Great Qin State, and they ordered that this mysterious army must be found and killed.
Why is this army called the mysterious army
That's because this army has always come and gone without a trace. Even if the Great Qin State mobilized a large number of spies, they still could not find any trace of this army.
What's even more hateful is that after setting fire to the city, they deliberately left a message outside the city - The Ninth Army of the Qinglong Legion is here!
This sentence was a slap in the face, but the Qin State could not find any trace of them.
"General, the Chu Ninth Army attacked Linhai County late yesterday night!"
Among the 50,000-strong army, a spy came to report to the general Xu Kang.
"Bring me the map!"
Xu Kang shouted softly, opened the map, and found that Linhai County was actually two thousand miles away. Even if his 50,000 troops traveled all night without eating or drinking, it would still take a day and a half to reach it.
Since being assigned by Marshal Mengtu to annihilate the Chu Ninth Army, he thought it was a very simple matter, but what happened was far beyond his expectation.
The Ninth Army can only be described as "elusive".
They were still in the northwest today, but they would be in the southeast tomorrow. For a moment, he even doubted whether this group of Chu Ninth Army had wings.
As a result, every time he rushed there, he could only eat a noseful of dust, and you can imagine how depressed he felt.
In the country of Da Qin, in a certain deep mountain and old forest.
A large number of trees were cut down and a temporary camp was cleared, where 9,300 soldiers of the Ninth Army were stationed.
Although the Hunyuan space is good, the scenery inside is too monotonous. If you stay there for a long time, you will feel depressed. Therefore, after a few days, Yanli will release them and spend the night in the wild.
Also, after ten days of fighting, although the soldiers had magical weapons with them, they still inevitably suffered a small number of casualties, which dropped from more than 9,500 to more than 9,300.
However, what makes Yan Li happy is that after snatching the resources of various cities, he also collected a large number of magic weapons. Now, the armor and shoes on each soldier are all magic weapon level, and their overall combat effectiveness is stronger than before. Three times as much.
At the same time, after obtaining various pills to improve his cultivation, he gave them down without feeling distressed, which allowed hundreds of soldiers with outstanding qualifications to break through to the realm of reason.
There are also lower and middle-level officers such as ten-capurions and centurions. After Yan Li's deliberate cultivation and appropriate elixirs, their cultivation has also improved greatly.
The most noteworthy ones are Gu Feng and Wu Ximing. After taking the elixir queen, they both broke through to the first level of the secret realm yesterday.
Just breaking through requires a stable state, so at this moment they are still practicing hard in the Hunyuan space.
After ten days of fighting almost non-stop, the soldiers also looked tired, so Yan Li planned to rest for three days before continuing the raid.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. After resting, the Chu Ninth Army returned to a vigorous state again. Therefore, Yan Li completely brought them into the Hunyuan space and unfolded a map of the distribution of cities in the Qin Kingdom.
"This is the city!"
The body rose into the sky and flew into the distance.
A full four hours later, Yan Li landed outside a county called "Dongman". The reason why this city was called Dongman was because it was adjacent to the Barbarian Kingdom.
As evening approached, many citizens were still coming in and out of the city gate, but there were twice as many gate guards as usual.
It seemed that after Yan Li's many surprise attacks, every city in Da Qin began to be on strict alert to prevent him from making another surprise attack.
