The cold wind swirled over and brushed the strange flowers with purple stems and green leaves outside the building, and the strange trees with green flowers and green fruits. Under the cool waves, the branches and leaves of the plants and trees made rustling sounds.
The gurgling water from the toads hanging on the base of the main building echoes the pleasant whistle sound from the sculptures after the cold wind blows across the eaves and the ancient god sculptures.
The pleasant sound made the birds in the main building quiet, but they didn't say a word. It also made the ghost mother's aura disappear a lot, and she could calm down while reading the memoir while listening to the report of Chunyun.
After Chunyun finished everything he wanted to say, the ghost mother closed the memorial, looked up at Chunyun and thought about it for a while, but she didn't speak for a long time.
Chunyun waited for a while before waiting for the ghost mother to ask back: "Have you discussed this in the summer palace of military affairs and military taxes?"
The ghost mother seemed to want to understand and then give a reply.
"Yes, when the letter of war was delivered to Yuque City, I immediately summoned the military advisers of the Xia Palace to discuss the matter." Chunyun pointed his head and then said: "The result of our serious discussion is that
King Yama's plan is feasible. First, gradually encroaching can reduce the pressure on our army, and second, when conquering enemy passes or military camps, as long as you suddenly attack, you will definitely have an absolute advantage in the number of troops. The most important thing is,
Before the Beiyin Dynasty mobilized the army, there was no danger to defend around Dushuo Mountain. In this way, even if the enemy reinforcements arrived, it would not be afraid."
The ghost mother remained silent and began to ponder after listening to her.
After a long time, the Ghost Mother also thought carefully and felt that this strategy was indeed feasible. The enemy was afraid and asked for help, which was a panic. If the Jiuyou Kingdom could take steady steps and recommend it step by step, the Northern Yin Dynasty guards of Dushuo Mountain.
It will only be more panic and anxious.
"Well, it's accurate. Chunyun, you can go back and prepare immediately. See if you can draw some elite soldiers and generals and send them together. In addition, the expansion of the Dongyingzhou Military Arms Supervision also requires time to prevent the ammunition and medicine during the war.
Inadequate and lack of conditions occur.”
"No." Chunyun bowed in response and turned around and left the tall building with birds singing among the carved beams and painted buildings.
She took agile steps and curled up a gust of cold wind, and soon disappeared from the ghost mother's sight.
Lu Wu also bowed and was about to leave, but the ghost mother suddenly called him and asked in a low voice: "Is there any news about the lord on Shuoyue Island?"
It was a secret. Even if only she and Lu Wu were left in the building, the ghost mother instinctively did not dare to speak loudly.
"It should be soon, but there is still no news about Huangquan coming back." Lu Wu shook his head slowly and replied: "After all, it is two worlds that have not been understood. We cannot get the news from there soon.
of.".
"Well, tell Yingzhao that he must guard Xiaoyu Mountain City to the death. Before the lord comes back safely, don't lose this mountain city." A look of loss flashed across the ghost mother's face, and she waved her hand to signal Lu Wu that she could retreat.
Lu Wu nodded and bowed again, and retreated silently.
The ghost mother stood up, walked to the north and pushed open the window. The cold wind came towards her, whirling the vines crawling on both sides of the window frame.
The bright green leaves move with the wind, and the ghost mother looked silently out of the window. The distance where her deep eyes reach was the direction of Shuoyue Island...
The sun rises westward, and a touch of bright red dispels the darkness between heaven and earth.
The underworld ushered in a new day.
Unlike the previous morning, today in Xiaoyushan City, even the morning light and morning breeze are filled with an indelible breath of death.
But in this breath, thousands of troops and ghosts in the mountain city were shouting long live in the same tsunami. For their victory, they repelled and defeated the Fengdu army besieged Xiaoyu Mountain, forcing them to forcibly defeat the Fengdu army besieged Xiaoyu Mountain, and forced them to
The victory of retreating twenty miles.
Only Yingzhao, Yu Xuan, and Ji Kang and a few ghost soldiers and officials did not join the earth-shaking cheers.
They were looking for each weapon and armor from Jiuyou Kingdom at the foot of the mountain, and silently collected it.
That was the only relics left by their soul comrades who died in battle.
The comrades who had no bones had no choice but to leave these relics to Yingzhao and the sounds and appearances in front of them, leaving a little thoughts for Yingzhao and the others.
They collected these things silently without saying a word, and turned a deaf ear to the cheers of the mountains and the seas. They just kept silently telling themselves in their hearts: "I am alive, and I am still alive, so I cannot let my dead comrades die in vain. Let's fight,
Fight for the dead comrades, and fight until the dark day in the underworld is no longer dark, and we will accompany these old friends again."
Yingzhao, with red eyes, picked up a black, curved and deformed steel knife from the scorched earth covered with blood-colored powder, and carefully used his cuffs to clear the charred blackness burned by the flames on the blade.
It was not until the shiny blade appeared again that he inserted the steel knife in front of the city gate at the foot of the mountain. He looked up and saw the city gate building that had already collapsed into ruins.
Under the rising sun, a cold light flashed with a curved and deformed blade. The blade was still sharp.
It stood proudly at the city gate like an indomitable warrior, replacing its passing master, facing the sun and staring at the distance outside the city. It seemed to be ready to wave again at any time, killing the enemies who dared to invade this place, and continue to protect behind it
The ghosts in the city.
"Is your sword under your hands?" Huang Tu and Jiang Ziwen who were coming towards him stood in front of Ying. After Ying Zhao took back his gaze, Jiang Ziwen wanted to speak but stopped, and finally asked: "The master of this sword passed by
, Is it a ghost you are familiar with?"
While speaking, they all saw the sadness and regret lingering on Yingzhao's face. Jiang Ziwen suddenly felt a little regretful and asked that sentence.
"I don't know each of them, but I recognize the courage of each of them." Yingzhao bit the corner of his lips hard, widened his eyes and held back tears, and choked: "No one of them died of escape, no. They were all dead in charge.
On the way, they all died... under the enemy's artillery fire, and in the fight with the enemy."
After saying that, Yingzhao turned her head away when she sniffed, and her lips were pursed and sad.
"The ghost soldiers in our country will definitely not die on the way to escape." Huang Tu raised his hand and slapped Ying Zhao's shoulder hard, comforting the other party as much as possible: "The ghost people did not suffer too much casualties, you should do it for
Their courage is proud and proud.”
He knows the truth and skills, but this battle is too tragic. It is difficult for him to have only pride and pride without grief.
The number of ghost soldiers and ammunition and medicine supplemented by Fengdu to Gong Mingyi was enough to exhaust the last shell and sub-gun of the defenders of Shuoyue Island, and also shot down many flying thunder vehicles. The ghost soldiers of Jiuyou Kingdom could only brave artillery fire.
Raise swords and guns and fight with the enemy in a desperate battle.
In this way, the Jiuyou National Army also saved Xiaoyushan City and Yuren Village on the island.
It's just that it's expensive. When the reinforcements arrived, there were very few defenders in Xiaoyu Mountain City, and less than a thousand surviving soldiers were there. The Jiuyou National Army has never encountered it since the battle outside Shizhu City.
This kind of miserable victory.
Even in the air battle on the west coast of Dongyizhou, the Jiuyou National Army was not so embarrassed.
The dead ghost soldiers died with courage, which made Yingzhao even more difficult to let go. He knew that most of these ghost soldiers who died in battle were ghosts in their twenties.
Although these little ghosts have grown up and will be one year old after a thousand years. Once their young voices echo in Yingzhao's mind, Yingzhao still feels sad, and what follows is a feeling of discomfort filled with suffocation in his chest.
.
"I think General Huangtu is right. If you want to be sad, you might as well cheer up. We will kill all the Fengdu Army on the island and capture Gong Mingyi. That is the best way to avenge your dead comrades.
"Jiang Ziwen took the conversation and comforted Yingzhao: "You are a master of troops and formations, and you are the long-time general who follows the lord to fight on the battlefield. We are about to counterattack, which is inseparable from you. Your battlefield experience and lord
Your strategy and wisdom that teaches you by example can formulate the best counterattack plan for us.”
Yu Hyun and Ji Kang also came over and surrounded Ying Zhao and waited for Ying Zhao to cheer up.
But Yingzhao, who was still full of sadness, was not in a hurry to agree, and still had red eyes and said nothing, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"The sea area has been completely blocked, and our navy has achieved overwhelming suppression. The Fengdu Beiyin navy on the sea is about to be killed." Huangtu, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke again: "We must also resolve the enemy on the island as soon as possible,
It is also easy to use the enemy's ghost head to commemorate our dead comrades."
The cold wind was slightly cool, and the mattress was filled with coldness. Ying Zhao stood in the cold wind and thought to himself for a long time, and slowly shook his head silently.
When the ghosts around him were shocked and thought he had collapsed and didn't want to continue to hit him, Yingzhao finally spread his dry lips and said, "The more we are, the more we must fight steadily. If we are eager to achieve success, we will only know how to do it.
More comrades died innocently in battle.”
The ghosts around him breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. After seeing the sad expression on Yingzhao's face, their worries about Yingzhao were also faded.
Yingzhao was cheering up, and he couldn't wait to think about countermeasures, just for revenge. But he did not get lost and lose his mind.
This is a lucky thing for the ghost soldiers and generals who are looking forward to his counterattack plan.
The cheers on the mountain stopped, and suddenly the sound of the thunder of the mountains was no longer heard, and the world suddenly became much quieter.
Yingzhao walked slowly around, thought about it and then stood opposite Huangtu and Jiang Ziwen again, thinking about it, "Now Gong Mingyi is shrinking his troops. Before he retreated in the morning, he had already slapped the troops from all sides of the island.
, summoned around Xiaoyu Mountain City, and wanted to fight to the death with us and fight to the death. Then we have to cut off Gong Mingyi's army and defeat them one by one."
"Attack one point and break the entire line." Ji Kang, who was listening and thinking, said these eight words thoughtfully from his head.
"Yes." Ying replied firmly, and then said: "Gong Mingyi made a mistake. He gathered all the Fengdu ghost soldiers on the island, but they were scattered around Xiaoyu Mountain City, forming a continuous stream of numbers.
Baili, the line of defense connected to the end. It seems that the Fengdu ghost soldiers are powerful, and they are in danger and strong in their defense, but their attack on Xiaoyushan City also caused artillery shells and feather arrows to be quickly consumed, so that they can fight on the outside and the inside. This is exactly ours
The troops can be used and the troops are scattered around. The dispersed forces naturally provide our army with an opportunity to take advantage of."
Huang Tu listened quietly to his words and thought. It was not until Yingzhao finished saying this that he said: "But if you want to attack him, you have to force Gong Mingyi and the Fengdu army to survive. Otherwise,
Even if their troops are dispersed, we have no chance to take advantage of it.”
"Yes." Yingzhao nodded again, agreed with Huangtu's suggestion, and said: "So we must first destroy their granaries and ammunition depots."
