Chapter 775 Lost City
In a mixed look, Wuling Hou Zhou Bin jumped down from a spiritual crane and fell to the ground, his feet staggered.
Speaking of which, Zhou Bin is the number one master in the Daofei realm in the entire Zhou clan and even the entire nine counties and states. Even if he is injured during a battle with the rebels, he should not be injured like this.
Zhou Wanqing was waiting outside the hall. Seeing Zhou Bin like this, she frowned slightly. When Zhou Bin approached, she stopped him and asked, "Why are you so seriously injured?"
Marquis of Wuling Zhou Bin suppressed for a long time, and even the people around him did not see the clues. At this time, Zhou Wanqing pointed it out, and said with a wry smile: "Go back to the ancestor, I suffered a lot of injuries when I led my troops from the capital that day. However, the Xiao rebels acted too quickly. After suppressing the royal city, they quickly assembled the army into two groups, one attacked Beijin City and the other went around the south to attack Luoxia Port. I was also unable to do anything, so I could only suppress the injuries and presided over the military affairs in Beijin City. Now a few months have passed, and I am afraid that it has damaged the foundation."
As soon as this statement came out, Chen Hai, Feng Yichen, Zhou Yunshan and others all changed their expressions. You should know that cultivators are usually injured, even if the spiritual veins and the secret palace of the Spirit Sea are damaged, as long as they are well maintained, there will be no serious harm.
When Sha Tianhe was injured by Han Sanyuan and Wu Ping, his injuries were once extremely serious, but he was harbored in Beiling Pass. Although he did not have a particularly advanced magic pill, after several months of meditation, he gradually stabilized his injuries and has now basically returned to his peak state.
However, if the injury continues, the damage will be continued, the Dao Foundation or even the Life Element will be damaged, this problem will be much more serious.
After Zhou Bin finished speaking, his vicissitudes of life became older and older. If he looked over without knowing it, it would be as if Zhou Wanqing was his granddaughter.
Seeing that everyone was silent in the scene, Zhou Bin smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, as long as the ancestor returns safely, even if the entire Haiyang County is lost, can he be at ease to settle down in this country? It's a pity that I was too incompetent and did not discover Xiao Ni's conspiracy in time, which caused the ancestor to be in danger and lost the royal city. Now he has lost Beijin Pass, so that the ancestor will probably have no place to gain a foothold in the nine counties..."
After seeing him finish speaking, Zhou Wanqing coughed repeatedly, her face pale, and took out the last Duer Dan left in her hand from her arms and asked Zhou Bin to take it over to prevent the injury from continuing to worsen.
"This..." Zhou Bin, the Marquis of Wuling, took the jade bottle, opened it, and of course he recognized that it was the Duer Erdan inside, and said hesitantly, "It is important for the ancestor to heal. How dare you enjoy such holy medicine when you are guilty?"
"My injuries have stabilized. If I want to recover from my cultivation, it will not be possible in three or five months," Zhou Wanqing insisted that Zhou Bin surrender the Duer Erdan and said, "At this time, Beijin Pass was newly defeated and Haiyang County was in a collapse. It was the time to use people, and there was no time to recuperate and regulate your injuries..."
Zhou Bin didn't have time to refine the medicinal power of Du'er's Pill at this time, but the slow release of the medicinal power caused his complexion to recover a little.
This is also the magical feature of the quasi-dao-level spiritual pill.
Although the Duer Er Pill is still slightly worse for people like Zhou Wanqing, for the Daofei Dan, it is a bit wasteful for the Daofei Dan to heal the wounds.
Seeing that Zhou Bin's injury stabilized again, Zhou Wanqing calmed down and asked: "The Jiuyou Xuanshuang Formation in Beijin City is the Heaven and Earth Mountain Protection Array, and is also deployed on the main spiritual vein of Zixiao Mountain. Even if the Xiao rebels were assisted by Lei Yang Sect, there would be more strong people, logically speaking, they would not have lost so quickly."
Zhou Bin, the Marquis of Wuling, said bitterly: "Xiao Ruohai, a dog thief, has not been on the rise on a whim, but has been planning secretly for many years. He also knew that it was easy to suddenly attack the royal city, and it was not easy to take down Haiyang County, which was managed by our Zhou clan for tens of thousands of years. Therefore, when he was the prime minister, he had appointed people to mine a large number of mineral veins in the Zixiao Mountains, and actually hollowed out the bottoms of several peaks near Beijin Pass. We had no idea before, nor did we expect the Xiao family to rebel. When Xiao Ruohai led the rebels to flock to the confrontation and fighting for nearly two months, these hidden dangers were exposed, and the peaks continued to collapse. The mountains and rivers changed shapes, and the spiritual veins collapsed. When I realized this, the rebels had controlled the mountains on the northern foot of Zixiao Mountain and continued to use the earth-shaking technique to destroy the mountains. In the end, the Jiuyou Xuanshuang Formation could not draw a little spiritual energy from the earth veins, and its power would be weakened by 70% or 80%..."
The spiritual energy consumed by the Great Array of Heaven and Earth is extremely huge. Without the help of underground spiritual veins, it only absorbs free spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and its power will naturally be greatly weakened.
Zhou Bin continued: "...In order to prevent the 200,000 elite troops of our Zhou clan from losing all the Beijin Pass, seeing that Beijin Pass cannot defend for a long time, and seeing the rebels constantly establishing new offensive positions outside the Beijin Pass, I could only detonate the Jiuyou Xuanshuang Formation, destroy the two peaks in the north of Beijin City, cover up the 20,000 elite troops who failed to withdraw in time in the front of the rebels, and temporarily block the gorge, and buy time for the main force to retreat-"
Many people did not expect that Zhou Bin took the initiative to give up Beijin Pass, but when the ancestor returned, Xiao Ruohai would definitely launch a general attack on Beijin Pass before they breathed. After the power of the Jiuyou Xuanshuang Formation was greatly weakened, the Zhou clan no longer had the conditions to fight the rebels at Beijin Pass. He immediately decided to give up Beijin Pass and at least 200,000 elite troops for the Zhou clan!
Zhou Bin continued: "...Zhou Bin was incompetent. When the main force withdrew from Beijin Pass, he encountered the murder of elite rebels, and the casualties were also quite serious. The civilians who remained in Beijin City were even massacred by the rebels!"
"Xiao actually dares to do this!"
"Will Xiao Ruo Hai Dog Pirates not be afraid of attacks from fellow leaders in the world?" Everyone in the hall roared angrily.
Beijin City is located near the main vein of Zixiao Mountain. It has extremely abundant spiritual energy. It is more suitable for cultivation than the city counties of Haiyang County and the royal cities of the nine counties. It is also one of the most densely reproduced cities in the Zhou clan. Almost half of the civilians in the city who did not have time to withdraw were children of the small surnames separated from the Zhou clan.
It is not easy for Zhou Bin to withdraw his main force, and he has no time to organize millions of civilians to evacuate. The elite rebels' vanguards then slaughtered the city after controlling Beijin City, which actually wanted to dig up the foundation of the Zhou clan.
At this time, even Zhou Wanqing, who had always been calm, had a storm gathered in her eyebrows.
Chen Hai sighed sadly, the sects were killed, and sometimes it was not necessarily less bloody than the invasion of the demons.
Zhou Yunshan stood up angrily and said, "Old ancestor, Xiao's traitor, massacre of civilians is extremely evil. Destroying the spiritual veins of Zixiao Mountain will also destroy the foundation of our Jiujun Island. At this time, we declared the world to expose their evil deeds. Those counties and sects who are waiting and watching will really sit idly by?"
"How is that easy?" Zhou Bin and Feng Yichen sighed at the same time.
The spiritual veins are related to the mountains and rivers. It is precisely because of the dangerous peaks of Jiujun Island, the complete power of heaven and earth, and the gathering of spiritual energy is more abundant, so that so many clans with powerful people in the Taoist womb realm are nurtured.
Therefore, attacking a strong city with a mountain protection formation to destroy the terrain from the outside and destroy the spiritual veins is a means, but often after a big battle, the mountains, rivers, terrain and spiritual veins are destroyed. Previously, the spiritual treasure land would become deserted and deserted land, which was also one of the most cruel costs of the war.
As one of the main veins of Jiujun Island, Zixiao Mountain was destroyed by the rebels so much that it naturally weakened the foundation of the entire Jiujun Island, but the war has always been so cruel.
Xiao Ruohai was more likely to know that after Zhou Wanqing returned, the minds of waiting and watching counties would change, so he used such thunder and cruel means to massacre the city to shock the waiting and watching counties.
"I dare to ask Zhou Hou, the main force of the rebels was blocked at Zixiao Mountain Pass, how long can it stop them?" Chen Hai asked.
The elites in the rebels with cultivation above the spirit realm could only fly over the ruins and enter Beijin City. However, even if the rebels could gather tens of thousands of elites above the spirit realm, they would have to wait until the main force, horses, a large amount of war equipment, and food and supplies to enter Beijin City before they could dare to chase and kill the Zhou family's remnants in depth.
This also bought some time for the Zhou family to rectify its stance.
But Chen Hai didn't know the specific situation on Zixiao Mountain, so he couldn't tell how long this time would be.
Zhou Bin didn't know who Chen Hai was, and everyone was concerned about this issue. He said, "I knocked down the Wangxia Peak on the two wings of Beijin Pass and Lanxi Peak, and the broken stones accumulated in the gorge that was more than a thousand feet high. I estimate that it would take at least ten days for the main force of the rebels to enter Beijin City - within ten days, whether to fight or retreat, and I would like to ask the ancestor to make a decision as soon as possible..."
What Chen Hai was most afraid of before was that the situation collapsed and it was decayed in an instant. At this time, he heard that the main force of the Zhou family's remnants had not suffered heavy losses, and there was more than ten days of buffering time, so the situation was not completely hopeless. He directly suggested to Zhou Wanqing:
"The Lord of the Zhou Palace, the Zhou clan did not have the ability to fight head-on with the rebels at this time. He should strive to retreat as much as possible to the depths of Luoxia City and the mountains on both wings of Luoxia City in just over ten days, and then send envoys to Konghai City for help - we do not need Konghai City to send troops directly, but our hinterland is lost, and the subsequent replenishment of the war needs to be rented from Konghai City, so the Zhou clan also needs to cede considerable interests..."
Chen Hai's suggestion was that the main force of the Zhou clan would retreat to Luoxia Port and use another paradise that was withdrawn from Izumo City to strengthen the depth of Luoxia Port. As long as Konghai City agreed to provide logistics supplies, the main force of the rebels could be attracted to the northern part of Luoxia Port for confrontation, and then a small number of elite troops were divided into covers to harass the main force of the rebels's main force, so as to delay the battle situation and rekindle the confidence of the other waiting and watching counties.
Of course, the most important thing is that Gulang Island (Heifeng Island) must be defended. If you don’t know that if the rebels attacked on both sides of the water and land, the Zhou family’s remnants would have no room for maneuver in the small Luoxia Port.
Wuling Hou Zhou Bin exchanged spiritual thoughts with Feng Yichen. At this time, he already knew Chen Hai's identity and felt that the suggestions Chen Hai made were indeed the last suggestions that the Zhou clan could adopt at the moment, otherwise he would have to go out to sea to escape.
Moreover, there are not many large merchant ships in their hands that can withstand the storm. Apart from their elite combat power, it is impossible to take millions of Zhou children in the hinterland of Haiyang County to sea to escape...
At this time, someone came to report that all the matters to be called on the stage were ready. Zhou Wanqing stood up and took everyone to Luoxia Port to worship the generals. She was appointed as the lord of Heifeng City, the commander-in-chief of the Black Feng Shui Master, the commander-in-chief of the left and right governors.
