Chapter 58 The First Appearance of Hades
Luoyang City fell, and millions of corpses and ghosts were everywhere. With the 60,000 troops under Yang Jian's command, it would not be possible to clear the entire Luoyang City in one day or two.
These corpse ghosts are not as good as living people fighting. They are not afraid of death and do not have to talk about morale. They will never collapse. Therefore, in terms of strangulation, they are much more difficult than living people fighting.
On the first day, Niu Chou and Guan Changsheng led the army to kill 170,000 corpse ghosts, and retreated into the imperial city. The 40,000 guards on the imperial city were defended by the city walls.
On the second day, the army became more powerful and cooperated more strongly. It scattered 310,000 corpses around the Imperial City. After nightfall, only a few small groups of corpses attacked the city, and there were no more corpses of corpses.
On the third day, Yang Jian gave the two swords of slaughtering witches and demons. Two large armies toured Luoyang, strangling more than 700,000 corpse ghosts, and their murderous aura was everywhere. Wherever the army passed, those ordinary corpse ghosts could not even get close to them, and would be directly shattered by the evil aura.
In three days, a hundred thousand troops were rotated and a million corpses were killed. This kind of record was simply terrifying for a newly formed army.
After nightfall, more than 50% of the 100,000 troops in the palace were fighting and roaring in their dreams.
This is a psychological problem caused by excessive killing. The plan to clear the corpse and ghosts of Luoyang was temporarily put on hold. Lu Jiuyuan, his personal disciple Wang Mingyang, and more than a hundred Confucian disciples, recite Confucian classics for days, and with his infinite aura, he refines the demonic thoughts in his heart for a hundred thousand troops.
By this moment, the army had already become as handsome as a veteran of a hundred battles.
With such veterans in the hundreds of battles, there is no greater danger in clearing those corpses with little intelligence. As long as you follow the squad, it will take up to ten days or half a month to completely clear the city of Luoyang.
However, just seven days later, during the clearance of Luoyang, the army discovered something bad. Yinba first visited Xidu and led a full 800,000 new army, which had appeared outside Luoyang City. The flags were connected to the sky, camped for hundreds of miles, divided into eight gates to defend the entire Luoyang City, surrounded the entire Luoyang City.
At the same time, in Luoyang City, many high-level corpse ghosts began to appear overnight. Some could culminate in the soul cultivators, and some were even comparable to human and immortals.
These corpse ghosts seemed to have reborn intelligence. Often, a high-level corpse ghost can drive ordinary corpse ghosts in a radius of dozens of miles. They have also ambushed Yang Jian's army several times. Fortunately, two powerful generals Niu Chou and Guan Changsheng can kill the generals in the face of battle, but Yang Jian's army has few casualties.
In the Weiyang Palace, Yang Jian stood on the head of a sand table, and all the senior generals under his command, including Su Miaoge, were all on the list.
"Your Majesty, in the past few days, the old minister has checked the imperial palace books and cooperated with many wealthy books brought back from Luoyang City by General Guan, and discovered some of the origins of this plague virus array. However, the records are slightly shallow. It can be inferred that this plague virus array is a corpse-raising array in the underworld. It is led by the fog of the yellow spring water and the ten thousand-year-old corpse poison, and it is mixed with strange poison. Once it is stained, it is beyond cure. As early as in ancient times, it has been included in the taboo array by the Jiuzhou Middle Earth!"
"Yinba dared to use Gulishi and Qingqiu Demonic Dao as chess pieces to launch this taboo formation. The purpose is probably not just to destroy Luoyang and suppress the will of the Han Dynasty. The water in it is very deep!"
Lu Jiuyuan is always the first person to speak, because he is the most knowledgeable and meticulous, and can always find the key point in the dilemma.
"I know the origin of the Qingqiu Demonic Dao, named Su Yingchun, and later changed its name to Su San. He was originally from my Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. But a long time ago, because of some tribe hatred, Su San had joined the underworld of Youzhou, changed his bloodline, and turned into a ghost fox. Thirty years ago, he used the poison of the Yellow Spring to slaughter all the Qingqiu clan members!"
"The Eight Yins and Desolate Formation of the Godly Palace outside Luoyang City and the Underworld Corpse Raising Formation in the City should be Su San's work, but I don't know its purpose either!"
Just after Lu Jiuyuan spoke, Su Miaoge's mood fluctuated a little, but he still endured the complicated emotions in his heart and spoke.
There is a lot of information in the words Lu Jiuyuan and Su Miaoge said.
If combined, Yinbaxian, Su San, and Youzhou Underworld should be the main line. As for Gulishi, it should be just a knife in Yinbaxian's hand or a vicious lackey.
In the nine states of Central China, the Xuanyuan Divine Dynasty dominated the five states and was the strongest force in Central China. Although the Youzhou Underworld only occupied one state, it did have an endless battle with the Xuanyuan Divine Dynasty thousands of years ago, and both sides did not decide the outcome.
The plan to unify the Jiuzhou of Middle-earth at that time was put on hold.
Since then, the underworld has retreated back to Youzhou again. For thousands of years, it has never developed too much. It is the most mysterious existence among the nine states in the Middle Land.
"The affairs of the underworld are too far away from us! On the contrary, in Luoyang City these days, I have been ambushed by corpses several times. I have found some interesting signs and outlined the location and route of the corpses ambush. Qiongyu Tower, this is a very interesting place. All the ambush seems to be surrounding this brothel. Those corpses seem to not want us to get close there!"
Unlike the ideological perspectives of Lu Jiuyuan and Su Miaoge, Gao Xiaowu was proficient in warfare. After several days of research, he put forward a point that seemed very interesting to everyone.
The hall was silent for a moment, and everyone was trapped in thinking.
After a moment, Yang Jian's eyes flashed with a splendor, and he asked Lu Jiuyuan: "Mr. Lu, can the formation of corpse raising in the underworld have any array eyes or array base?"
"Or, does this underworld corpse-raising array need someone to preside over the array?"
In an instant, there seemed to be a flash of lightning in everyone's hearts to break through the haze. As soon as they met, it seemed that things had become clear.
"No matter what it is, tomorrow morning, the army will set off. I personally take the lead and lift the veil of Qiongyu Tower, and everything will be clear!"
"But your Majesty, outside Luoyang City, the Yin thief led 800,000 new troops to siege the city. We should have retreated sooner or later. Although Luoyang has a lot of food, it will be a day to finish it sooner or later. In addition, the 800,000 new troops under the Yin thief are all practitioners of cultivation. The situation we face will be very difficult!"
"I think that other things like the taboo array and the underworld can be discussed until the next day!"
Gao Xiaowu has the confidence to destroy all the corpses and ghosts in Luoyang, but facing the 800,000 new army outside the city, even as the war god, Gao Xiaowu seemed extremely solemn at this moment.
When he saw this scene, Lu Jiuyuan, Niu Chou and others who followed Yang Jian earlier than Gao Xiaowu smiled unkindly.
Among the many high-level leaders, it seems that Gao Xiaowu is the only one who crossed the void formation, and he has never known it.
Even Yang Jian smiled when he saw Gao Xiaowu's confused expression in front of everyone.
It is still very easy to use the resources in the palace arsenal and the wealth of Luoyang, and arrange a square pattern to continuously transmit the 100,000 troops out of Luoyang City.
