Wuji Hall, like Zhenwu, is overgrown with weeds and extremely desolate.
As people walked through the Taoist temples that stretched for miles, they felt like they were stepping back in time.
It can be imagined how prosperous this large-scale Taoist temple was back then. Presumably, there must be at least thousands of people with super powers practicing in it.
In the prehistoric area, even the largest cultivating god sect has only a few thousand or hundreds of disciples. Most of them are only a dozen or more, fifty or sixty, and the building they live in is a main hall.
and a few tile-roofed houses, such a large-scale building complex stretching for several miles is simply unheard of.
Everyone discovered that although no one had come to this Taoist temple for a long time, there was nothing of value. It seemed that this place had been searched many times.
"Brother Zhou, we should have arrived at the treasure hidden place described on the sheepskin map. How to find it?" Tian Yun asked.
"have no idea."
Zhou Sen found a big stone, spread out the sheepskin map, and measured it carefully.
According to the description on the sheepskin map, the place where the treasure is hidden is nearby. However, it is surrounded by dilapidated Taoist temples and there are no clues at all.
If the treasure on the sheepskin map is in a barren mountain, it would be easier to find it. After all, in that desolate place with few people, as long as you spend a little time, you can easily find the clues of the treasure.
In this Taoist temple, there are traces of human activities everywhere. It is very difficult to find the place where the treasure is hidden, because it is impossible to demolish all so many buildings...
…
While Zhou Sen and Han Zifei were racking their brains to find the treasure on the sheepskin map and a group of superpowers, the war in the Han Empire was in full swing.
Under the leadership of Tongtian Shenshu, Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City launched large-scale military operations.
When Zhou Sen left, he left behind tips and tricks for the generals at Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City.
attack.
Non-stop attack!
Except for Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City, the Han Empire just counterattacked and attacked some cities around Juzizhou, but they did not occupy them.
Because a large number of Crusaders' horses were captured, Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City also had a large number of cavalry.
In addition to the powerful Han cavalry that came and went like the wind, the most troublesome thing for the Crusaders were the hundreds of monsters.
On that ice and snow wasteland, it was simply a paradise for monsters. They not only hunted down the Crusaders' scouts, but also hunted down the Crusaders' black-winged Kunpeng on a large scale.
The official road between Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City has been completely opened. Then, through non-stop military operations, the territory of Orange Island was eroded bit by bit. After many small towns were recovered by the Han army, some Han people also
Started to unite vertical companies and battalions to cooperate with the military operations of the Han army.
The situation of the Crusaders in Orange Island is extremely dangerous, because Zhou Sen killed hundreds of thousands of Crusaders in Tongzhou City, which not only caused a spiritual blow to the Crusaders, but also a military blow.
It's heavy, because now the Han Empire is in the winter when water turns to ice, and replenishing the Crusaders' troop supply has become the biggest problem.
Orange Island is currently facing several problems, among which the most troublesome one is Shou.
Orange Island's army was no longer able to organize large-scale corps operations, but they had to intercept the crazy sneak attack of the Tongtian Divine Rat.
The defender of Orange Island is in a state of despair right now...
…
The Crusaders in Wuchao City also had a difficult time.
When General Wu Yuan learned that Zhou Sen had recaptured Tongzhou City, his keen military talent immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
At this time, the soldiers of the Han Empire had realized that the Crusaders hated winter more than they did.
If we wait for a large-scale counterattack after this cold winter, the Crusaders will have regained their strength by then.
On a snowy night, General Wu Yuan personally led an army to attack General Gore. Just as the two armies were engaged in a bloody battle, a group of generals, Shan Yu, Lu Titu, Lu Axe, and Cai Ping, each led 50,000 cavalry.
, bypassed General Gore's defense line and penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Han Empire.
If Zhou Sen's war at Zhenshuiguan and Tongzhou City formed a turning point, then the battle at Wuchao City was a comprehensive counterattack by the Han Empire.
Regarding this full-front counterattack, historians spoke highly of General Wu Yuan, because General Wu Yuan did not even consider the safety of himself and the emperor, and devoted all his military power to launch this military operation.
It is no exaggeration to describe General Wu Yuan's determination for this battle as "breaking the cauldron" and "a last-ditch battle", because almost all of them came out of Wuchao City, with more than 200,000 Huns cavalry and hundreds of thousands of Han cavalry and infantry.
plunged into this massive battle.
Facing the all-out counterattack launched by the Han Empire, General Gore had no power to counterattack at all, because both Shanyu and Lu Axe, they were extremely fierce generals.
Hundreds of thousands of Han troops swept through Canyun with overwhelming force and recaptured dozens of cities in just one week. General Gore, in order to avoid being cut off by the Han army that penetrated deep into the hinterland, decisively ended his fight with Wu Yuanda.
After a fierce battle, the general abandoned his armor and fled to Baisha City.
Baisha City is already six hundred miles away from Wuchao City.
The unstoppable Han army fought all the way to Baisha City, and then stopped. Because at this time, the Han Empire's battle front was too long, the supply line was too long, and the occupied cities needed to be consolidated.
In this battle, the Han army was proud and proud. Not only did they kill General Gore, they also gained hundreds of miles of strategic depth for Wuchao City.
General Wu Yuan, who was seriously injured, led the army to Baisha City, and once again formed a stalemate with General Gore. However, what was different from before was that this time, it was not General Wu Yuan who defended the city, but General Gore.
Became General Gore.
General Wu Yuan did not attack Baisha City by force, because Baisha City is a famous city through the ages. Not only is the city wall indestructible, but there are also more than 200,000 Crusaders entrenched in it.
General Wu Yuan, who has a deep understanding of military skills, naturally knows that it is almost impossible to capture Baisha City in a short time. Even if Baisha City is captured, both sides will lose and the gain will not be worth the loss.
The most important thing is that the Han army can no longer defeat the battle, so every decision made by General Wu Yuan is like walking on thin ice!
This time, General Wu Yuan adopted the tactics of the Crusaders - encircling the point for reinforcements!
The most ingenious thing about encircling a town for reinforcements is that the enemies surrounding a town use it as bait to attract reinforcements from enemies elsewhere. The real purpose is to defeat the reinforcements of the enemies and achieve the campaign goal of annihilating the reinforcements.
The focus of General Wu Yuan's encirclement and reinforcements was on the reinforcements, so the focus of troop deployment was on the reinforcements, while those surrounding Baisha City were auxiliary forces.
The tactic of encirclement and reinforcements dealt a heavy blow to the Crusaders near Baisha City. Every day, thousands of Crusaders died in battle. In Baisha City, the morale of the Crusaders was low...
…
"General, although the cold winter in the Han Empire only lasted for more than a month, the early spring after the cold winter was still cold. Moreover, the ice and snow melted, and the roads were muddy. Although the Baisha City was indestructible, it lacked food and grass, and the surrounding towns were defeated one by one by the Han.
In less than a month, this Baisha City may become an isolated city, and Orange Island has been severely damaged by Zhou Sen. Reinforcements..." A soldier looked at General Gore with a cold face and cautiously suggested.
"It doesn't matter, our reinforcements are coming soon!" A strange smile appeared on General Gore's face.
"Reinforcements?" All the generals looked at each other.
"Prince Charles is here."
"ah……"
All the generals had shocked expressions on their faces, and their bodies were trembling inexplicably.
Prince Charles is the most glorious general in the history of the Kingdom of Heaven, and the most important thing is that he is still alive!
Prince Charles was the most prominent general in the kingdom of heaven's wars that opened up borders and split the country. He fought on the battlefield for more than three hundred years, and the countries he conquered were trembling with fear whenever they heard that he was leading the troops to fight.
"Historical Records of the Kingdom of Heaven" records: All countries dare not fight in the Kingdom of Heaven. A note was added at the end because the Kingdom of Heaven has General Charles!
It is rare for a general to reach such a point in the history of war. He has made great contributions to the great cause of the Kingdom of Heaven's southern and northern wars. His achievements have created the highest practical example of the Kingdom of Heaven's art of war - the God of War.
—Prince Charles!
Prince Charles led countless battles throughout his life, annihilating more than 4 million imperial troops and capturing more than 500 cities, large and small.
The most amazing thing is that during those war-torn years, Prince Charles had never lost a battle in his life. Various historical data show that he had never been defeated once, and often defeated more with less. He was both a superb tactician and a
A brilliant strategist. The scale of the war he commanded was huge, and the cruelty of the battles was rarely matched by others in later generations!
If General Wu Yuan is the pillar of the Han Empire, then there is no doubt that Prince Charles is the pillar of the Kingdom of Heaven.
General Wu Yuan is a legend in the Han Empire, but compared with Prince Charles, he is not on the same level at all, because although General Wu Yuan has achieved countless proud achievements in his military career, he has also suffered countless defeats.
, and Prince Charles is victorious and invincible...
Just like General Wu Yuan's status in the Han Empire, Prince Charles also has a supreme status in the Kingdom of Heaven, including General Gore, who is his disciple.
Prince Charles also has a nickname - The Ghost King.
The title of Ghost King, in addition to its hundreds of years of life, is also related to his ability to kill enemies.
Prince Charles has three operational characteristics:
The first is the idea of annihilation warfare that does not take the sole goal of conquering cities and seizing territory, but takes the annihilation of the enemy's effective forces as the main purpose. He is also good at field attacks and must seek annihilation in battle. This is the most outstanding feature of Prince Charles. He is the most outstanding person in the history of war in the Kingdom of Heaven.
He is an unparalleled commander in the tactics of encirclement and annihilation, and is also one of the military commanders who is very good at fighting annihilation wars in the history of war in the Kingdom of Heaven.
The second is to emphasize pursuit warfare in order to achieve the goal of annihilation and pursue the enemy fiercely.
The third is to attach great importance to visual warfare and fortification, first luring the enemy out of the fortification position, and then building fortifications to block the enemy in the area where the enemy is expected to be wiped out, and to prevent them from breaking through. This kind of combat guiding ideology of using fortification as an auxiliary means of attack is in the Kingdom of Heaven.
This is unprecedented in the history of war.
In the countries where Prince Charles fought, the ratio of men to women would be seriously imbalanced, because Prince Charles's victories were all based on massacres of cities.
It is said that in many villages with hundreds of people, there are only a handful of young adults...
…
Zhou Sen didn't know that there was a real undefeated God of War rushing to the Han Empire to take over the command of the Crusaders.
According to research by historians of the Han Empire, Zhou Sen and Prince Charles have many things in common. For example, the several battles in Tongzhou City were all aimed at annihilating the enemy's effective forces, and the Battle of Binghe was based on the weak defeating the strong.
, bringing field fortifications to the extreme...
Zhou Sen is not worried about the war in the Han Empire, because it is still winter now, and although spring is about to bloom, it will be very difficult for the Crusaders to conquer Wuchao City and Zhenshuiguan in a short time.
Zhou Sen believed that by the time the Crusaders launched a counterattack, he had already rescued Jiutian Xuannv and the others.
The sheepskin map was crudely made. Apart from pointing out a general direction, there were almost no details. If Zhou Sen had not learned some knowledge from the earth, he might not even be able to find Kuaiji Mountain.
Now, Zhou Sen and Han Zifei are a group of superpowers who are lost in the buildings.
Half a month had passed, and everyone had searched the huge building several times, but still made no progress.
"We can't find it, what should we do?" Tian Yun sat down on the steps with a depressed look on her face. The past half month of rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the building has made Tian Yun, who was originally gorgeous, become shabby and embarrassed.
.
"There is no way to continue searching like this."
Han Zifei's group of people's eyes all fell on Zhou Sen. Now, everyone looked at Zhou Sen as his leader.
Zhou Sen also sat on the steps, glanced at the sky, frowned, and spread the sheepskin map in his arms on the ground.
The only clue is this sheepskin map. However, apart from the winding mountain lines, this sheepskin map is just a red dot for the place where the treasure is hidden.
A red dot on the map can range hundreds of miles. Even if it is limited to Kuaiji Mountain, it is impossible to find the specific location of the red dot...
…
Could it be that this Taoist temple is a place where treasures are hidden?
In fact, everyone has thought of this possibility for a long time. However, the problem is that this Taoist temple has countless main halls and many wing rooms, spreading for several miles. If there is any treasure hidden in them, finding it will undoubtedly be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Brother Zhou, what are you thinking about?" Tian Yun asked curiously when Zhou Sen was silent.
"I was wondering what the person who drew this map had the intention of doing." Zhou Sen took a long breath, picked up the sheepskin map with both hands, and faced the sun. Still nothing was found. Through the strong sunlight, he could still only see those things.
The winding mountain lines.
"Could someone be bored and make a sheepskin map like this?" Tian Yun touched her nose and asked.
"This possibility is very small. First of all, the person who made this sheepskin map must know Kuaiji Mountain and the Taoist temples that stretch for several miles. Otherwise, it would be impossible to draw such a map." Zhou Sen shook his head and said: "It can be reached
This superpower in Kuaiji Mountain would never be so bored as to make a fake sheepskin map."
"Then why can't we find it?" Huang Feilong asked.
"The problem is with this sheepskin map. Generally, when making this kind of map, there will be various concerns. For example, you are worried that people with super powers like you will find this map and follow the map to find treasures. Therefore, the people who made the map
People will find ways to increase the difficulty, or do some tricks to make people confused and lead them astray... By the way, how did you get this sheepskin map?"
"When I was very young... I was only nine years old at that time. I went to play by a stream and found a sheepskin map floating in the water. I picked it up and put it on the rocks to dry. It was fun at first, but I forgot about it later.
, I kept it in the study room for several years. Recently, I got bored, so I took it out..."
"Wait a minute, you said this sheepskin map was found in a stream?" Zhou Sen was perked up.
"Yes……"
"Isn't the sheepskin map afraid of water? Even if the sheepskin map is specially treated to be waterproof, why are the lines on this map not washed away or become moldy?"
"Ah... yes, why didn't I think of it at the time? But... what does this have to do with the map?" Tian Yun asked with a confused look on her face.
"This is very important. It shows that this sheepskin map is more than just a map. At least, it is not afraid of flooding or even fire..."
"Not afraid of fire!"
Han Zifei and a group of superpowers looked at each other in shock.
"This map is actually of no use to us now. Each of us can draw this map, so we can start from this map, for example, flood it with water, burn it with fire, or use other methods.
Let’s try some method.”
After Zhou Sen put forward his idea, everyone immediately ran to an ancient well and submerged the sheepskin map in the water. Unfortunately, the sheepskin map did not reveal anything abnormal in the water, except that the lines became much clearer.
Burn!
Everyone set up a bonfire again.
In order to avoid damaging the sheepskin map at the beginning, everyone found an iron frame and slowly baked the sheepskin map to see what changes there were in the sheepskin map.
When the sheepskin map came close to the flames, a shocking scene appeared. The blazing flames seemed to be suppressed by a strange force, and spread apart like a tide, making it impossible to get close to the sheepskin map.
"This is not a parchment map."
"What is it?"
"This is the skin of the candle dragon. It is impervious to water and fire."
There was a hint of sadness on Zhou Sen's face. Back then, when he was training in the Dark Forest, he had seen the power of the "Eternal Fire Essence" sprayed by the candle dragon.
"Zhulong..."
Everyone looked confused. Obviously, they didn't know about monsters like Zhulong.
"It is a very powerful monster. The flame it spits out is called the Immortal Fire Spirit, commonly known as Dingfeng Fire. As long as it is touched, it will not be extinguished or spread. It can burn for several months. As long as it is touched a little,
It will burn out the blood in the body and slowly turn into a skinny skeleton..."
"The Evil God"
"So powerful?" Everyone's eyes fell on the map and they subconsciously took a step back.
"Yes, it is very powerful. If you encounter this kind of monster in the future, you must be careful. As long as it is touched by the immortal fire spirit, it will be a situation that will not end..."
"Brother Zhou, look at the sky..."
Suddenly, Tian Yun exclaimed, and everyone looked up to the sky following Tian Yun's gaze. They saw flames all over the sky like huge waves. Among the flames, there was a swaying landscape painting. In the painting, it was magnificent.
