Four hundred and fifty-ninth chapters face the hat man
"The overlord is licentious, commits all kinds of evil, and kills innocent people indiscriminately!"
"Huangfu Wuji is sage, upright, and loves his people like a son. He is a rare and virtuous emperor!"
Through word of mouth of the Huangshen Sect, Huangfu Wuji was established as a glorious and majestic image, while Gu Chen's image plummeted among the common people.
"This is too much! The Huangshen Sect really dares to make any kind of rumors. In some places, it is actually said that His Majesty ordered the massacre of Kuncheng!"
"Not only that, they said that the sect master was trying to usurp the throne. To this end, they even found a fake Princess Lanchu, saying that wherever the overlord's army went, they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil!"
Various rumors spread to the coalition forces, making the generals on all sides filled with indignation.
After stationing in Youzhou, they strictly abided by discipline and did not violate the laws of the cities in Kyushu, but now they have turned into a demonic army, and Gu Chen's image has been tarnished to the extreme.
The Aragami Sect is too good at inciting people's hearts, turning white things into black things, and many ordinary people are too ignorant to believe what they say without knowing the facts!
"We should send troops to encircle and suppress the Wild God Cult and uproot this damn cult!"
"How to encircle and suppress? The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. The members of the Huangshen Religion are too scattered, and it is impossible to encircle and suppress them completely. If we don't do it well, they will take advantage of us and accuse us of massacre of the people indiscriminately. This further proves the brutality of our army!"
The generals were in a stalemate and had different opinions.
"Humph, that's how you humans are, you cherish such vain things as reputation too much."
During the argument, Sun Jinming shook his head, "In my opinion, there is no need to argue with the Huangshen Cult. They are just tools used by Huangfu Wuji to interfere with us. As long as we capture Qingzhou as soon as possible, we can overthrow Huangfu Wuji."
The main force of the Abandoned God Sect will naturally become obedient when it loses its backer!"
Sun Jinming's words were rude but not rude, and he enlightened everyone with his words.
"Yes, if the Aragami Sect wants to spread rumors, let them do so. Our target should be on the battlefield."
Gu Chen made the final decision. He didn't care how much his own image was slandered, he focused on the overall situation.
With the conclusion in mind, the coalition forces moved forward at full speed regardless of anything else, and finally reached the border between Youzhou and Qingzhou a few days later, facing Huangfu Wuji's Tianming Army from a distance.
After the man in the hat took over as the commander-in-chief, he took the initiative to retreat a hundred miles to the border. Within these hundred miles, there were plains and smooth rivers.
The armies of both sides looked at each other from a distance, and they could see each other's flags flying.
"Woo——"
After the coalition forces arrived, a man in a hat rode on a strange bird. With a wave of his hand, the battle horn sounded.
A steel torrent riding a strange beast from the Tian Ming Army swept out, quickly crossed the Baili Plain, and rushed towards the coalition forces!
"kill!"
The coalition forces immediately dispatched troops, and the two sides fought hand-to-hand on the battlefield.
Gu Chenfang, Nangong Zheng, Lu Yichen and many others looked at the man in a bamboo hat in the distance, their eyes shining with intense hatred.
The other party was Huangfu Wuji's right-hand man, and he had committed countless sins for Huangfu Wuji.
He has conducted countless cruel and inhumane experiments and will do whatever it takes to complete his experiments!
Gu Chen stared at the man in a bamboo hat in the distance, his eyes also icy cold.
The other party was the one who directly ordered the catastrophe in Feng Lin Mansion. Because of him, Elder Nangong was transformed into a body of ten thousand poisons, and he is still suffering from the pain caused by the poison to this day.
It can be said that the first person Gu Chen wants to kill is Huangfu Wuji, and the second person is this man in a bamboo hat!
As long as the man in the bamboo hat is taken down, Huangfu Wuji will lose his hands and feet. Then so many saints will surround him and kill him, no matter how strong the opponent is, he will be hated!
"Man in the hat, do you dare to fight with me?"
Nangong was shouting in front of the formation, with murderous intent in his eyes!
"Jie Jie Jie, Nangong Zheng, you are just my experiment, but you are not qualified enough!"
The strange laughter of the man in the bamboo hat came from afar. Next to him stood Shen Xudong, with a hint of worry in Shen Xudong's eyes.
"When this war is over, I will use you for experiments, Man in the Hat."
Gu Chen responded nonchalantly. He noticed Shen Xudong, but acted extremely indifferently.
At the same time, he looked behind the two of them. In addition to the top leaders of the Tianming Legion, there were also representatives of various major forces. Among them were some figures he was familiar with.
As for the Shenmu Sect, he saw Mu Tianci, whom he had fought against in a martial arts tournament;
In the Holy Land of Nanhua, he saw his old friend Qi Zeyan;
Feng Jiuqian, Hong Taiyi and other old friends from Liuguang Sect and Xuantian Sect also came. What surprised him even more was that the leader of Tianya Haige now turned out to be Yao Yufei.
He originally thought that Tianya Haige had already dealt with Yao Yufei, the priest of the Hades Palace, but he didn't expect that she was still alive and now, with Huangfu Wuji's influence, she really took control of Tianya Haige.
These old friends, whether friends or enemies, are now standing on his opposite side, passively or actively tied to the Tian Ming Army.
Gu Chen moved his eyes and saw Vice President Qi and Mu Ziyu of Zhenwu Academy, but he didn't see Ye Qingshuang and didn't know where she went.
Today, he may have no choice but to kill some old friends. Gu Chen cut off any trace of unbearable feeling in his heart, and his expression became as cold as frost.
This is war, and being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. No matter who is on the opposite side of him, he must take action against him.
He believed that his former friends had also made sense, and that they were standing here because of some bonds and beliefs.
While Gu Chen was analyzing the enemy's top brass, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed!
The Tian Ming Legion and the coalition's forward army were already fighting each other, and there was no winner for a while, but suddenly, the ground began to shake violently!
Then I saw huge monsters breaking out of the ground in the hundred-mile plain, making terrifying screams!
It was a creature that looked very much like an octopus, covered in slimy flesh, and there were dozens of them in total.
As soon as they appeared on the battlefield, streams of poisonous smoke emitted from their mouths and bodies, instantly filling the area hundreds of miles away.
"ah--"
When the soldiers came into contact with the poisonous smoke, they were immediately corroded and turned into a pool of blood!
"Run! What kind of monster is that!"
Both the soldiers of the Tian Ming Legion and the soldiers of the coalition forces all fled back in fear, but the speed at which the poisonous smoke filled the air was so frightening that it submerged everyone in the blink of an eye, turning them all into blood!
"What's going on?"
Countless soldiers on the coalition side were moved. Each of the dozens of monsters was hundreds of feet tall. Their ferocity and terror had never been seen before!
"Man in a hat, you..."
Nangong was looking at those huge poisonous octopuses with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"Jiejiejie, Nangong Zheng, does it look familiar to you?"
The laughter of the man in a bamboo hat came from far away, "Thanks to you and using your body for experiments, I was able to extract this kind of poisonous gas that can be used on a large scale."
"They are my latest experiments. How are they? Are they beautiful?"
