Chapter 1997: A nightmare I've seen before
Wanqi Liang frowned.
"The captive said that the Heavenly Palace Guardian also sent a military supervisor from Yaodi to Guo Baiyu. He always interferes in military affairs, but that person is not here either."
Wan Qiliang pondered: "What does this 'commander-in-chief' look like, and who is around him?"
His men brought a captive, who was originally the leader of Guo's army. He told them everything. The commander was a strong man in his early thirties, and he often accompanied a girl of ordinary appearance in her 16 or 17 years old. Guo Baiyu also issued a strict order that the army was not allowed to treat this girl lightly, and they should take good care of her in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
It sounds like this woman is most likely the "divine body" sent by the Heavenly Palace to Guo Baiyu, but Wanqi Liang had eliminated two groups of enemies before, and the divine bodies they put forward were all fake. Those local tyrants only realized before they died that they had been tricked by Qingyang.
So, is the divine body she sent to Guo Baiyu real or fake?
However, none of the enemies that Wanqi Liang had dealt with before had a "commander-in-chief" sent by the Heavenly Palace. Does this mean that Qingyang values Guo Baiyu more?
After all, Guo Baiyu performed better in the war against the Dragon God.
Wanqi Liang thought for a moment, then asked the captive: "Has Guo Baiyu ever tried to summon the gods?"
The prisoner shook his head and answered honestly: "I don't know what 'Summoning the Gods' looks like."
"Pray and chant for a while."
"No, the coach has been busy."
Wanqi Liang asked a few more questions but didn't get any useful clues, so he withdrew his troops and returned to the city.
……
The Flesh and Blood Fortress has been broken, and the Dragon God Army and Bisha people who were blocked outside have all rushed over.
The Pisha army had been fighting hard for a long time, but they collapsed on the spot when they saw the Nine Nether Emperor.
Because he was holding the head of General Zhongwu in his hand!
He is the pillar that has enabled Bisha to struggle until now. If he falls, Bisha's pillar will be broken.
This was the turning point of the Battle of Pisha.
There is no suspense about the events that follow. He Lingchuan clears the obstacles ahead and marches to the city of Anrong. The old patriarch of Pisha sees his son die tragically and knows that the situation is hopeless. He is so disheartened that he commits suicide immediately.
Bisha has a grudge against the allied forces, and was instructed by Tiangong and Qingyang to oppose the Jiuyou Emperor. This meant that Bisha chieftain had no way out and could not surrender to the Jiuyou Emperor like the allied forces did.
If you lose, there is only one way out, which is death.
Only with his death can the Bisha clan have hope of survival.
General Chongwu and the old leader died one after another, and Bisha's resistance collapsed instantly.
The war between it and the allied forces had lasted for two years, and the people were equally impoverished and exhausted. Now the clan leader and his son died on the same day, and Bisha had lost the last bit of his energy.
What's the point of continuing to resist other than causing more casualties?
On that day, the city officials of Anrong led their clansmen out to surrender the city.
This is also the reason why He Lingchuan lured Chongwu to attack him: although Anrong Capital is not as strong as Yaodu, it will take more than one or two days to conquer it, which is inconsistent with He Lingchuan's strategy of quick victory. So he wanted to set an example by destroying the hope of the Bisha people, making them discouraged and unwilling to resist.
In other words, as long as he could capture General Chongwu, he would have accomplished 70% to 80% of the goal.
Afterwards, He Lingchuan entered Anrong City and held a reward banquet in the old palace, fulfilling his promise to his subordinates:
Invite them to have a rich breakfast in Anrong Palace.
At this time, it was still dark.
The entire Bisha tribe surrendered, and the Bisha territory was incorporated into the Dragon God's territory. The war in the central and western parts of the Golden Plains ended here.
He Lingchuan had to admit that he had a preconceived notion that the best support Qingyang could give to Chongwu was a divine body, which would allow him to invite down a real god.
It's still too narrow.
There are many powerful monsters in this Shining Golden Plain that can be used by the Heavenly Palace and Qingyang, as well as bizarre and unspeakable secret magic, such as the Flesh and Blood Fortress and the Jindu Ghost Cub. If used well, it can be more effective than directly praying to the gods.
Not to mention ordinary people, even immortals have hardly ever seen the ability of the Jindu ghost cub. Add to that the flesh and blood fortress, and it will definitely harm anyone.
Since they bypassed the col, He Lingchuan and the Black Armor Army had actually entered the disguised flesh and blood fortress. The monsters in front of them, including the ones killed by He Lingchuan and the Black Armor Army, were all ghost cubs born by the Jindu Ghost Mother.
The woman at the bottom of the lake is their human mother, or the carrier of their birth.
The endless stream of small monsters that were summoned should be the ability of one of them, but it can only be done by relying on the mother body. So once the woman died, both the flesh and blood fortress and the small monsters disappeared.
Because this fortress of flesh and blood was built using her body. This process was full of horrific pain, especially when monsters of all sizes worked together to suck the mother's vitality to heal their injuries.
The woman was not a body descended from the gods, but she was replenished with Emperor's fluid and black crystal, otherwise she would not be able to sustain such consumption.
The horror of this killing ground lies in the fact that enemies trapped in the fortress of flesh and blood often think that this is an array formation, and then waste time and energy trying to find a way to break the formation, and are finally exhausted to death.
Only those who understand how the Flesh Fortress works have a chance of surviving.
Although the name of the Jiuyou Emperor is intimidating, neither Qingyang nor Chongwu believes that he has ever seen such a weirdness.
Almost no one can break the flesh and blood fortress in a hurry. This is a special manifestation of divine arts in the human world, not something that should exist in the human world. The Jindu Ghost Mother is a special existence among the gods. She almost uses a bug to cross the barrier between the two worlds and place the ghost cub in the human world. The ghost cub itself has growth potential, which is completely different from the general body of the gods.
But no one knew that long ago, He Lingchuan had personally experienced the horror of the Flesh and Blood Fortress in the Panlong World.
His team almost didn't escape at that time, and it was General Red who came and killed the Sadist and put an end to everything.
Therefore, He Lingchuan had a deep impression of that battle. When he saw the flesh and blood stone patterns in the stone pages, his past memories were immediately brought back to him, and he also knew where the fatal weakness of this trap was.
In today's battle, I don't know whether to say that He Lingchuan was too lucky, or that Chongwu and Qingyang were too unlucky.
But He Lingchuan is a little strange:
The Flesh Fortress is the magical power of the Crusher, but when fighting against heavy weapons, the Crusher did not appear in the Flesh Fortress, otherwise the difficulty of this battle would be at least one level higher.
The number of offspring that the Jindu ghost mother gives birth to in each litter is not fixed, and she can give birth to up to nine offspring at a time. However, the chance of a sadistic person appearing is extremely small and cannot be controlled by humans.
He Lingchuan had seen a sadist in the Panlong world, and had also seen the sadist's nest in the Demon's Nest Swamp in reality, but he had never heard of this kind of monster since then.
I don’t know where Qingyang got the Flesh and Blood Fortress from. I can only say that Qing Palace’s collection is too rich.
