Chapter 54: The Water of the Jade Girl Lake
The Shenzang Realm expert looked ugly when he heard this and said: "They... don't know their location. They seem to be hiding in every corner of Yulu City. They appear sometimes and disappear sometimes. They have killed many of our soldiers."
Cao Yingbo was furious when he heard this and said: "Humph, you trash, you don't even know where it is, what use do you have?"
Then he raised his hand, and a powerful force suddenly came from his palm, slamming into the forehead of this powerful man in the Shenzang Realm.
A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of all the soldiers around Cao Yingbo, but then they quickly returned to normal and could no longer be seen.
"Brother Cao, this is actually a good thing. At least we know they are still here. As long as they are still here, they cannot escape."
Cao Yingbo laughed and said: "Haha, Brother Zhao is right, we are going to meet this group of northern rebels."
Then he and Zhao Zhengxin laughed and set off and walked out of the general's mansion.
In a corner, a figure of a man with white hair and white robes suddenly appeared, with a sneer on his lips, and the direction his eyes were looking at was the direction where Cao Yingbo and Zhao Zhengxin were leaving.
Then, his figure suddenly disappeared. Several soldiers under King Zhendong who were searching not far away found nothing strange.
Somewhere in Yulu City, a pair of Jinjiajun, numbering over a hundred people, were searching house to house along a street, trying to find traces of the Blood Dragon Army.
"Not here."
"Not here either."
They searched dozens of houses and courtyards, but did not find any Blood Dragon Army hiding here.
"Strange, why is there no trace?"
The leader of this group of golden-armored troops was a deputy general who was at the second level of Shenzang Realm. At this moment, his face was full of doubts.
Suddenly, the wall in front of him exploded, and dozens of blood-red figures rushed out in the blink of an eye, killing them.
Screams were heard one after another, and the lieutenant general looked horrified. In just the blink of an eye, hundreds of soldiers following him were killed or injured.
And a blood shadow flickered, and a blood arrow shot out from his neck.
"How is that possible?"
He saw that the Blood Dragon Army soldier who killed him, wearing blood-red armor, was only at the first level of Shenzang Realm.
It was even lower than his cultivation level, but he didn't even react and died under the opponent's sword.
Almost at the same time, in another part of Yulu City, several big trees in residents' homes exploded, and several Blood Dragon Army figures appeared, killing the enemy soldiers who broke into the homes to search.
There are also those who appear from haystacks, ponds, rooftops, etc. Once they appear, they kill nearby enemies with thunderous force.
The Zhendong Army and the Heping-West Army did not even find any trace of them.
Zhendong King Heping Xihou strode away, and as bad news came one after another, their faces became more and more ugly.
"Your Majesty, there are tunnel entrances to many wells and kitchens in the city. Anyone who tries to enter is killed by the opponent. He and the others have already dug a huge network of tunnels underground under Yulu City!"
Zhendong Wang Heping and Xihou looked shocked and angry.
"Then fill me with water and poison and let them die underground!"
Cao Yingbo bared his teeth and gritted his teeth angrily. The soldiers beside him were about to leave after receiving the order. At this moment, extremely sad screams suddenly came from the front of the road.
"What's going on?"
Cao Yingbo's cultivation at the sixth level of Shen Zang broke out, his body flashed, and soon he saw the scene in the distance.
"Damn it, how dare the traitor in the Northern Territory be so rampant."
Cao Yingbo was furious, raised his sword and charged forward, heading forward.
Zhao Zhengxin arrived later, but he didn't know what happened that made Cao Yingbo, the king of Zhendong, so angry. When he saw the situation ahead, he was also furious.
"Damn rebels, how dare you be so rampant!"
Zhao Zhengxin was also furious, and he rushed up, his long sword emitting infinite cold light.
It turned out that dozens of huge blood-red balls, as tall as three to five people, appeared in front of them. The balls jumped and rolled, left and right, up and down, and broke into the crowd of Zhendong Army and Hepingxi Army.
But this is not what makes Cao Yingbo, the King of Zhendong, and Zhao Zhengxin, the Marquis of Pingxi, angry.
What made them angry was that when the red ball rushed into the crowd, dozens of swords suddenly flashed out from the surface. The ball rolled and the swords were covered with blood.
It was like a moving machine, rapidly harvesting the lives of the soldiers of Zhendong King and Pingxihou as it moved.
After dozens of spheres moved, corpses were left everywhere, which was extremely miserable.
Cao Yingbo flashed and struck out furiously, shattering several red balls in an instant. Among them, the Blood Dragon Army soldiers screamed and scattered in all directions, and were beheaded.
Dozens of other red spheres composed of the Blood Dragon Army came furiously to kill. Cao Yingbo sneered and killed again.
“Don’t overestimate your own capabilities.”
With a cold drink, hundreds more Blood Dragon Army soldiers died in his hands.
Seeing this, all the Zhendong Army and the Pingxi Army were greatly strengthened, but they did not notice that water began to flow all over the main street of Yulu City.
"What does it smell like?"
Finally, someone noticed this strangeness, so he leaned down, put it on his hand and smelled it carefully.
Then suddenly he exclaimed.
"No, it's kerosene!"
Then everyone around him was frightened, and suddenly several torches appeared and fell on the kerosene.
The fire spread rapidly, igniting the stalls on the roadside and the red wooden house.
The same scene was staged in every corner of the city, and the entire Yulu City became a city of fire.
King Zhendong and Hou Pingxihou rose into the sky and looked at the tragic situation in the entire Yulu City with a gloomy expression.
"hateful."
The two of them were extremely angry, knowing that they had fallen into a trap set by the Blood Dragon Army.
Their army was completely unable to deploy in the city. The streets and buildings in the city weakened their ability to fight in groups. As for small group battles, the combat power of the Blood Dragon Army frightened them.
Four figures were flying towards King Zhendong from a distance, but they were the four great God Tibetan generals under King Zhendong who had gone to chase the Northern Territory army. At this time, their faces were ugly.
"Your Majesty, we pursued southward and found no other rebels in the northern region. I think their large forces have already withdrawn from the city."
"Okay, in that case, it doesn't matter if you don't want this Yulu City. Let's pass through Yulu City and continue moving forward to see who can stop us."
Cao Yingbo gave a cold voice, and the four men of Feng, Yu, Lei, and Dian followed, and together with Ping Xihou, they issued orders to the army, passed through the north gate of Yulu City, and continued to advance north.
I saw that the army had just left the gate of Yulu City when a huge wave suddenly swept in front of them. The tall wave was dozens of meters high.
It turns out that ten miles to the north of Yulu City, there are continuous mountains, which are a branch of Desert Wind Forest. There is a huge natural lake in this vein.
In the Northern Territory, this lake is called "Jade Girl Lake", which symbolizes its nobility and clarity. It is a huge water source for the entire Ningqiu City.
But now, Yue Wudao ordered people to dig out the bank of Yunv Lake, letting the water in the entire Yunv Lake pour down.
The Zhendong Army and the Pingxi Hou Army were immediately submerged in the water, causing numerous casualties.
King Zhendong roared angrily, while Marquis Pingxi was very upset and depressed. Looking at the countless wounded soldiers, he felt sad in his heart.
"The Zhendong Army and the Pingxi Army are finished."
The two armies quickly retreated, leaving Yulu City once again a city filled with water and fire.
The figures of Yue Wudao, Xiao Wenshan, Tang Yuanwu and others appeared on a mountain peak not far from Yunu Lake, as well as Yulu City General Lin Deyao and other Yulu City defenders.
They all watched the battle between the Blood Dragon Army and the Zhendong Army and the Ping Xihou Army in Yulu City.
I have to say that this is a wonderful war and a contest in which less can win more.
"Haha, Cao Yingbo and Zhao Zhengxin will feel distressed for a long time now. They were burned for a while and flooded for a while. The entire army was destroyed by at least half." Tang Yuanwu said with a smile.
At this time, in the eyes of Lin Deyao and others, there was no longer any doubt about Yue Wudao, but a look of admiration.
"His Royal Highness is wise!"
Lin Deyao led all the generals of the Heaven-Destroying Army to pay sincere respect to Yue Wudao.
Yue Wudao was stunned and quickly raised his hand to help Lin Deyao and others up.
"Although we seem to have won the victory for the time being, the real victory has not yet come, and we must not be careless."
The Zhendong Army and the Western Army only have two million, but this is just a vanguard army. There is also the more powerful Imperial City Army and other armies totaling six million, which is the real threat to the Northern Territory.
Even in Yue Wudao's heart, he had no confidence.
But when these words reached the ears of Lin Deyao and all the generals of the Tian Destroying Army, they made them admire Yue Wudao's character even more.
"His Royal Highness is highly skilled at a young age, and his strategy and courage are far superior to those of countless others of his age. He is also so humble. I think even if the royal family has an army of tens of millions, I in the Northern Territory will still not be afraid."
...
The amount of water in Yunu Lake is extremely huge, and countless streams in the mountains merge into Yunu Lake again. However, after fifteen days, the water in Yunu Lake will begin to dry up, and then it will no longer be able to stop the advance of the capital's army.
After setting up camp three kilometers south of Yulu City, they indeed stood still and seemed to be waiting for the arrival of the other six million troops of the royal family.
Lin Deyao was standing next to the Jade Girl Lake at this time, looking deeply at the Jade Girl Lake pouring water downwards, and sighed:
"Before, you raised the people and soldiers of the entire Yulu City, and now you have blocked the invasion of the royal family's enemies. I thank the crown prince in my heart, and I also thank you here."
His eyes slowly looked toward Yulu City, which was submerged by the lake. The lake gradually began to recede.
"However, you have to hold out for a few more days. The Crown Prince said that if you can persist for fifteen days, it will be a victory for the Northern Territory. I believe in the Crown Prince and I believe in you. You must hold on."
Behind him, all the soldiers of the Heaven-Destroying Army clenched their fists, expecting in their eyes that their prince could bring them a miracle.
The Northern Territory cannot be destroyed, nor should the Northern Territory be destroyed, because the King of the Northern Territory has always loved his people more than the emperor, and all the soldiers and people of the Northern Territory support him.
