The fierce battle was not stopped until the sun set. After several twists and turns, the third town division of the Longxiang Army had experienced several twists and turns before he could barely withstand the attack of the elite tiger roar from the east. The heavy gold-tempered arrows were exhausted, and more and more gaps were made in the remnants of the western foot of the city were beaten, and the position fortifications that had been taken advantage of before were beyond recognition. The third town division was forced to shrink west along the southern foot of the Tiechengling Mountains, and give the key to the western foot of the Tiechengling Mountains to the Guards.

Seeing that the troops of the third division of Longxiang Army were not stable, and after a day of hard battle, there were many casualties, and the generals and soldiers were exhausted. Especially Zhao Zhong was more eager to occupy Wusheng Pass and had no intention of leading his troops to pursue him, Yu Haode could only give up the idea of ​​chasing the tail.

Of course, the more important thing is that Yu Haoran feels that the Longxiang Army is fighting too weak today. It is just based on Dongcheng and Nancheng's position passive defense, and even a decent counterattack was not launched. Could it be that these troops were made up of the children of the Yao family and the surrendered soldiers, and their combat power was limited?

While Yu Haode was worried, dozens of rainbow lights came from afar, and Zhao Zhong rushed over surrounded by sword servants.

Zhao Zhong put away his spiritual sword, landed from the clouds, and said proudly: "Everyone in the world boasted that Chen Hai was using troops as a god and was invincible. But today, he was just a lie. Didn't he escape under my guards and lose his troops?"

Yu Haode smiled in his heart and thought that if they were all soldiers from Fengchu camp, it would be unknown who would win or lose.

Moreover, based on his long-standing battle perspective, we can naturally see that today's battle looked tragic, but the Longxiang Army did not suffer much. The casualties of 5,000 people should be the limit. However, Zhao Zhong's status is still above Yu Shuai. Yu Haode looked down on Zhao Zhong in his heart, but would not contradict him in person.

Fortunately, the road to Wusheng Pass was completely opened. When the Xiyuan Army saw that it repelled the Longxiang Army, it also withdrew the last few troops from the South Three Passes. Next, Zhao Zhong personally led a 100,000 army to take over the South Three Passes of Wusheng Pass, and Yu Haode led 50,000 elite troops to guard Tiechengling, which almost led to capture the northern part of Beijing under their control. However, this battle ultimately depends on the two sides' competition for Qiuye River.

Send Zhao Zhong and lead a group of troops to Wusheng Pass first. Yu Haode stood on the top of the western peak of Tiecheng Ridge with his reins, looking at the vast night sky. At this time, the scout Chen Hai had led the third division of the Longxiang Army to shrink to Guining City to the south. He couldn't help but think, if he gave up the fight for Wusheng Pass so easily, what was the meaning of Chen Hai leading tens of thousands of troops across the Qiuye River and heading north?

*********************

The third division of Longxiang Army retreated south at night and returned without success. There were many casualties. The Tianji chariot that finally came in and the heavy crossbow also lost more than half of this battle, which made the morale of the generals and soldiers at the top and bottom very low.

Chen Hai rode the Red Crane Cavalry and slowly traveled south with the central army. Yao Wenjin also had to contact the scouts on the periphery through the general sentry officer to confirm the enemy's movements, and was worried that the enemy would pounce on them before their morale was sluggish.

Of course, what made Yao Wenjin even more ashamed was that although Chen Hai was defeated and not allowed to win in this battle, the casualties when he finally retreated were still far beyond his initial estimate. The generals showed insufficient resilience on the position, and even the Dongcheng position was defeated by the elite tiger roar under Yu Zonghu's command several times. Only by using the reserve troops could he barely stabilize the position.

Seeing Chen Hai looking into the distant night sky without saying a word, Yao Wenjin drove over to review: "After all, I still have strong shortcomings and I am not down-to-earth in training, so many places have made mistakes today."

Chen Hai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Not you blame me, I still have too little time to train troops. It's good to be able to fight like this. Uncle Seventeen and Yao Xuan are all very brave..."

Yao Qitai, Yao Xuan and his son were accompanying the imperial cavalry. He heard Chen Hai’s praise, and it was a little unbearable.

When Yao Qitai was the Left Chief of the Taiwei Mansion, Chen Hai was training troops in Fujiaoling, Xiyuan. He also used his power to oppress Chen Hai. Who would have thought that in the past few years, his father and son could only look down on him?

Although Chen Hai did not mention the old story. When the third division of the Longxiang Army was in the army, he used Yao Qitai as the army's Sima to assist Yao Wenjin in handling military affairs. His power was quite ruthless, Yao Qitai was not sure whether Chen Hai really had no grudges about the old story. During this period, he was quite nervous.

Hearing Chen Hai mentioning himself, Yao Qitai drove the cavalry forward and offered advice: "We failed to capture Wusheng Pass this time, and we have to withdraw our troops in this way. I am afraid that it will hurt the morale of the generals and soldiers. I think the Third Town Division should station in the northern part of Beijing to form a nail, firmly nail the 150,000 Suwei soldiers to death here. Using the terrain of the northwest of the capital, we will entangle with it and train troops to fight and train troops. Only by growing the generals and soldiers of the Third Town Division as soon as possible - and the Northwest of the Capital and Qintong Pass can be said to be the two wings of Guining City, which is convenient for the contacts and forces the Suwei troops to expand their troops on a larger scale. If the stalemate continues, the situation will also benefit me."

Chen Hai nodded. If the Rebirth Bone Tower had already started to operate, if a large number of demon soldiers had not begun to gather in the rifts of the two domains, Yao Qitai's strategy would be more stable.

The Yao family has kept a low profile in recent years. Among the direct descendants, only Yao Qitai is the only one who serves in the court. The Xiyuan Army is in charge of the army. There are only ones who are truly capable of commanding soldiers and generals. Yao Taihe and others have strong cultivation, but when it comes to commanding soldiers and managing civil affairs, they are not as good as Yao Qitai.

However, it was thanks to Yao Wenjin's death disaster that Yao was truly a person who took the lead.

Looking at Yao Qitai's eyes full of hope that the proposal he offered could be adopted, Chen Hai smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Seventeen may not know that I want Uncle Wen Jin to defeat this battle, but not win..."

"Ah!" Yao Qitai also felt that Yao Wenjin was too restricted in using troops during the day, but thinking about the gap between him and Chen Hai, he didn't say much during the war. Unexpectedly, it was Chen Hai who did it on purpose.

"..." Chen Hai smiled slightly and said, "If I didn't personally lead 150,000 troops to Wusheng Pass, how could I lead 150,000 guards out of Meiwu Fort and Yanjing City?"

"Turn the snake out of the cave?" Yao Qitai asked in shock.

"Yes," Chen Hai said, "The next step we will go straight to Meiwu Fort and focus Yu Zonghu's main force on Meiwu Fort to ensure that Le Yi and Han Jian can lead the Fourth Town Army to go around from the southern part of Beijing to the east of Yanjing City as quickly as possible to seize Shenling Mountain!"

"..." Yao Qitai was stunned. He thought Chen Hai would lead the Longxiang Army to stand stalemate with the Suwei Army for a while. After the opportunity was more beneficial to them, he started a decisive battle with the Suwei Army. Unexpectedly, Chen Hai would pounce on him, pinch the Suwei Army's neck, and force them to fight to the decisive battle.

Although Shenling Mountain is not very wide in scope, it is close to the east gate of Yanjing City. Taking Shenling Mountain can not only directly threaten Yanjing City from the east wing, but also cut off the contact between Suwei Army and Qinglongyu and Lichuan County.

However, if Le Yi and Han Jian's troops could pass smoothly from the southern urban area of ​​Beijing, they had to nail the more than 200,000 elite troops deployed by Yu Zonghu on the front line of Meiwu Fort. Otherwise, Le Yi and Han Jian's troops would be completely exposed to the military front of the Hu Ben's troops.

The Guining Army was made of straw woven, and its combat power was even worse than that of the Third Town Division. The Third Town Division had just returned from Tiechengling without success. Can they really nail Yu Zonghu to Meiwu Fort?

More importantly, after the daytime war consumption, the gold-tempered heavy arrows were exhausted, and there were only six light and heavy heavenly vehicles left, and they could advance and retreat with the army, and there were no heavy combat equipment such as stone-caught crossbows. How to fight the next battle?

Chen Hai seemed to be able to guess what Yao Qitai was thinking and said, "From here to the southeast, one hundred and twenty miles away is Qinwangling, and from Qinwangling to the southeast is Meiwu Fort, and from the southwest is Guining Hou - let's go to Qinwangling for a day to reorganize, the arrows and combat equipment that are missing should be added!"

Seeing Chen Hai's words were so convincing, Yao Qitai didn't ask much questions, but just assisted Yao Wenjin in reorganizing his army and heading towards Qinwangling.

Almost the afternoon of the next day, tens of thousands of soldiers rushed to Qinwangling to rest in exhaustion. At this time, Yao Qitai saw twenty wind-flaming airships flying from afar, under the protection of the Battle Bird Camp, flying towards Qinwangling with the fierce cold wind.

In the impression of the world, the Longxiang Army built a total of ten Fengyan airships. I never thought that the number of Fengyan airships that appeared in Qinwangling at this time was as many as twenty. Seeing the Fengyan airship fleet approaching, Yao Qitai could also see clearly that Fengyan airship did not transport any troops this time, and there were 30 light and heavy heavenly war vehicles, six super-kilded crossbows that had appeared in Liquan, and thousands of wooden boxes filled with gold-tempered heavy front bombs...

******************************

Although the scouts of the Suwei Army could not get close to Qin Wangling, the third division of the Longxiang Army was reorganized in Qin Wangling and received a large number of war equipment, but it could not hide the eyes of the Suwei Army's scouts.

The inner court just celebrated because Chen Hai suffered a defeat in Tiechengling, but at this moment, no one could guess that the matter was far from as simple as they had imagined before. Chen Hai was probably deliberately in Tiechengling, with the purpose of attracting 150,000 troops led by Zhao Zhong and Yu Haoran to the north of Beijing and blocking them north of Qinwangling.

Yanran Palace, Qianzhen Palace.

Yu Zonghu sat in the hall with a look of water, while Bi Lan, Gao Wang and others talked about Chen Hai's movements and final intentions in panic.

At this time, a light gushed out like water waves under the ground of the main hall, and a majestic aura surged out from the underground palace of Qianzhen Hall.

The momentum was as violent as thunder, as if it wanted to clear all obstacles, as warm as spring water, making people forget their worries, and sometimes everyone seemed to be in purgatory - many changes were entangled together, changing rapidly, and everyone felt trembling.

Even Yu Zonghu had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and his mind had already become as hard as iron, and his expression changed at this time.

After a while, a muffled thunder came from the underground palace. Qianzhen Palace trembled a few times and finally calmed down. Several people stood up in a hurry. After a while, the exit of the underground palace opened silently, and "Wen Boyuan" walked out of it with a solemn face.

"Congratulations to Master for his success and coming to the world again!" Yu Zonghu and others all bowed down to congratulate.

It turned out that Wei Ziya was unable to leave seclusion for more than a month, but he took Wen Boyuan's body and rebuilt it.

Wei Ziya's life span decades ago, and he had to seize the body of a young official named Gu in Yanran Palace to re-cultivate. However, over the years, he has not been able to re-cultivate to the realm of spiritual and physical sorrow, and has never been able to form pills, so that his true magical powers could not be used, and he was almost killed by Chen Hai and Cang next to Guining City.

At this time, he sent the Taoist fetus he had achieved for thousands of years into Wen Boyuan's body house. Although it was still far inferior to his own body house in his prime, it was still much better than before, and at least it could last for a hundred years.

However, Wei Ziya was not at all happy on her face. Everyone didn't know why, but Wei Ziya didn't seem to have a problem with her cultivation.

Taking over the body does not mean moving the Taoist womb that has been cultivated for thousands of years into Wen Boyuan's body house. Wei Ziya also needs to redisperse the three souls and six spirits that have been refined into the Taoist womb in order to have a preliminary spiritual and physical fusion with Wen Boyuan's body house.

However, at the most critical moment when the body-taking was taken, Wei Ziya suddenly felt a strong crisis lying between heaven and earth, almost dispersing all the three souls and six spirits he had scattered out.

At the critical moment, Wei Ziya relied on his strong Taoist heart that had been cultivated for thousands of years, and brought the three souls and six spirits back into the Taoist womb, and he was extremely successful in seizing the body.

Although Wei Ziya didn't know what the perceived crisis indicates, even though he was still scared at this time, he just wouldn't say it for no reason to shake the morale of the army. Instead, he asked Yu Zonghu and others: "I have been in seclusion for nearly two months. What's the situation?"
