In the afterglow of the setting sun, Chu Zheng lifted his energy and leaped over the mountains and ridges, and Dongfang Bai and A Qing followed him one by one.

It was almost dusk, and Chu Zheng and the other two were naturally targeting Shengcheng Pass.

The Shengcheng Pass was surrounded by a war zone, and Li Shimin's army's scouts were scattered, and the risk of approaching the scouts in the coalition was very high, and even the traces might be exposed. Therefore, Chu Zheng ordered the coalition to move forward carefully, while he personally crossed the mountains and ridges, and followed the nearest route to Shengcheng Pass to reconnaissance the enemy situation and look for a good opportunity for ambush to come out.

Chuanzhou has always been steep, especially in this area. While using light skills to rush on, Chu Zheng was paying attention to avoid the Li family scout who might appear.

As for Dongfang Bai and Aqing, because they are in invisible mode, they can speak and unfold their body skills freely, and there is no need to worry about being discovered by outsiders.

Unlike Chu Zheng who was solemn and alert, the two sword spirit girls looked relatively relaxed, and were still whispering and chatting about gossip.

First, A Qing talked about the interesting story of raising goats, and then communicated with Dongfang Bai about the snacks she had eaten recently. Compared to Chu Zheng's other two sword spirits, A Qing was more lively and more talkative and laughing.

Listening to A Qing's cheerful voice with some baby sounds always made Chu Zheng feel like "Ah, this world is so peaceful", it doesn't look like he was going to war and reconnaissance.

However, when Chu Zheng thought about it, he felt that this was better. There was no need to let these two girls who had come out of the book to accompany him to experience the heavy weight of the war.

"Sister Dongfang, are you getting more and more beautiful?"

The two of them had their topics that turned to their appearance at some point.

"Is there any?" Dongfang Bai replied lightly.

She had a good relationship with Ah Qing. On the one hand, it was because Dongfang Bai is now a young girl in her twenties and is no longer as willful and arrogant as she was when she was a 14 or 15-year-old girl.

On the other hand, because A Qing is extroverted, innocent and innocent, and does not compete with Dongfang Bai at all. In addition, Dongfang Bai has been practicing swords with A Qing recently and acting together, Dongfang Bai began to regard A Qing as a friend, unlike He Lan'er who always competed in secret.

"Yes, yes, um... Although I don't know what to say, in short, Sister Dongfang always feels shining now compared to before." A Qing said affirmatively.

Which girl doesn't like being called beautiful? Dongfang Bai couldn't help but smile.

She touched her delicate face and asked, "Why didn't I feel it?" She said, but looked at Chu Zheng, obviously asking for his opinion.

Chu Zheng had to be dragged into the topic of this pure girl.

He looked back at Dongfang Bai, and indeed saw a natural and moving blush on her flawless pretty face, so delicate that it could almost squeeze out water, making people feel the urge to step forward and take a bite.

Her skin, which was originally as beautiful as jade, had a faint fluorescent light, which was indeed even more beautiful.

Seeing Chu Zheng nodding at her in agreement, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but look happy in his eyes.

"Um...it seems to have started more than a week ago. Sister Dongfang said that you were uncomfortable and didn't walk very well that morning. Did Chu Loujun take some magic medicine for you in private?" Ah Qing blinked his eyes, full of curiosity.

More than a week ago? Dongfang Bai didn't know what he thought of, but his pretty face immediately turned red and he glared at Chu Zheng fiercely.

Why do you glar at me?

Chu Zheng couldn't help but touch his nose and suddenly thought, could Ah Qing be talking about the night he and Dongfang Bai looked at the stars?

So, I did feed Dongfang Bai something that night...

"Is there really such a magic pill?" Seeing the strange expressions of the two, Ah Qing couldn't help but naively say, "Will Chu Loujun also share me with one?"

Under Dongfang Bai's cold eyes, Chu Zheng coughed: "You are still young, let's talk about it later."

"Oh." A Qing glanced at Dongfang Bai: "Do you want me to grow up to be as old as Sister Dongfang to eat? But I don't seem to grow up."

"This..." Chu Zheng suddenly thought that Ah Qing should always stay with him and would never marry anyone else. Doesn't this mean that the sword spirit girls are all members of his harem?

This is really a headache. He has more of a relative affection for A Qing and He Lan'er...

Forget it, let's put your mind back on the war in front of you.

Chu Zheng accelerated his body movement again, flying past the mountain like a big bird.

...

The three of them were getting closer and closer to Shengcheng Pass, and the terrain became increasingly dangerous.

Looking at the steep rocky mountain that was almost straight under his feet, Ah Qing whispered: "This mountain is so high and dangerous, I almost couldn't climb it."

"Yes..." Chu Zheng couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Li Shimin tried to capture Shengcheng Pass at all costs, because the terrain of this pass was like a line of sky, with dozens of miles of mountains everywhere. The closer it was to Shengcheng Pass, the more steep the peaks, the more it was. The only passage was Shengcheng Pass.

Now the stone mountain where Chu Zheng and Dongfang Bai and A Qing are located is still two hundred feet away from Shengcheng Pass, which is not the highest and most dangerous mountain, but it is more than one hundred feet tall, almost all of which are bare stone mountain with only extremely low bushes on it.

An ordinary first-class master cannot reach the middle of the mountain. Even if he is a great master, if his light skills are slightly poor, it will be impossible to reach the top of the peak. For example, Huo Wu Toutuo, the leader of the Western Region Vajra Sect who Chu Zheng had fought in Fancheng in the past, specializes in hard skills, and with his light skills, it is definitely difficult to climb up.

Under such a harsh natural danger, it is almost impossible to get the army to cross mountains and ridges into Suizhou, let alone transporting horses, food and supplies.

You should know that fighting is to fight logistics. For example, Chu Zheng took a lot of risks with thousands of people this time, and it was impossible to last. Moreover, Li Shimin's Tiance Army was the most elite with the iron cavalry. If he lost his cavalry, he was like a tiger without teeth. He barely entered Suizhou to use it to kill the enemy and train troops.

Chu Zheng adjusted his breathing evenly, and his spiritual sense spread. He immediately noticed that there were two powerful auras hidden on the opposite mountain, most of whom were the masters of the Li family.

Fortunately, they kept staring at the direction of Shengcheng Pass and did not find Chu Zheng.

Chu Zheng immediately pulled two sword spirit girls, hiding between the mountains and rocks here. At this location, you can see clearly the situation around Shengcheng Pass. There is no need to get too close to you anymore to alert the snake.

When they lay down on the top of the mountain, they looked at the ground only as big as an ant, but the three of them were already super masters of the "Sheng Realm". Chu Zheng was even a higher-level "Sheng Realm". His eyesight was far beyond ordinary people, and he could still see the situation at the foot of the mountain.

The sunset was like blood, and the broken limbs and arrows all over the ground under Shengcheng Pass were even more bloody and extremely tragic.

There was even a disgusting smell of blood in the wind.

Seeing the cruel post-war scene, even A Qing and Dongfang Bai were silent, and the previous relaxation was no longer on their little face.

Chu Zheng, who had long been used to seeing corpses and seas of blood, looked as usual.

He looked around and saw that within several miles of the periphery of Shengcheng Pass, there were all the camps of large and small in the Li family, surrounded by layers, like a giant dragon entrenched. The dragon's head was facing Shengcheng Pass, opening its mouth to facilitate the dispatch of troops. However, it was even more difficult to attack this camp in other aspects, especially the Central Army camp was in the center of Panlong, surrounded by countless obstacles, tents and soldiers.

The information is correct, it turns out that Li Shimin’s camp was built based on the almost lost Panlong formation!

Chu Zheng frowned secretly when he saw this. He had heard Guo Jing mention this dragon formation. It was extremely complicated to deploy and took a long time. However, once it was built, it was extremely powerful.

When this formation is full of people and focuses on guarding, it is even more powerful. Even if more than a dozen masters join forces, they don’t want to break in easily. If they are trapped inside, there is no other possibility except being captured and killed with all their strength.

Guo Jing was only able to understand this formation because he received the "Wu Mu's Success Letter". I wonder where Li Shimin learned it from?

I heard that there was a general named Li Jing under his command who was very good at setting up formations and might have been set up by Li Jing, who helped Li Shimin.

This also proves from the indirection that Li Shimin was also extremely afraid of Kou Zhong and Chu Zheng who might appear, otherwise he would not have spent so much energy to set up a complex dragon formation.

However, with this dragon formation, if it cannot attract Li Shimin's attention and make him spend more troops to attack the city, it will be extremely difficult for his 7,500 elite cavalry to raid and break through the camp.

Chu Zheng sighed deeply and looked at Shengcheng Pass. There was a slightly "V-shaped" pass. The thick city wall as high as ten feet high was built according to the terrain, which was only a hundred feet long, but there were many arrow towers above, and the rolling stones and wooden oil pans were all complete.

Just looking at the city wall built according to the character "V", we know that it is completely easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the layout of enhancing the lethality of the defenders.

A large number of young soldiers wearing armor were on guard, and Chu Zheng still saw Kou Zhong in the crowd.

Kou Zhongzheng whispered something with the general next to him. Chu Zheng's eyes fell on him. He seemed to feel something. He immediately looked up and looked up at this side. However, the place where Chu Zheng was is dangerous, with rugged rocks and high mountains. Kou Zhong could not see Chu Zheng.

Chu Zheng secretly praised Kou Zhong's martial arts cultivation obviously made a new breakthrough, and the Changsheng Art has made great progress. He has entered the "harmony of man and nature" level of masters evaluated by 950 martial arts. He is comparable to Yang Guo and is not far from the super master realm of "extraordinary and saint".

Behind the tall city wall, there is a fortress-like military city, with rows of catapults on the outside, which are obviously used to attack the Li family army approaching the siege on the other side of the city wall.

There are various barracks located in the military city.

What really caught Chu Zheng's attention was the dozens of monuments standing in the military city, which were perfectly combined with the barracks everywhere to form a large formation, which was the "Nine Nine Xuanwu Formation".

Chu Zheng, the "Nine Nine Xuanwu Formation", also heard Kou Zhong mention it. It is said that Kou Zhong was rebuilt on the original ancient formation of Chengguan based on the military book provided by Lu Miaozi, the "No. 1 skillful craftsman in the world", which can form a formation effect similar to the "people's heart" force field. All attacks entering the range of this formation will greatly reduce the power of the enemy, and the enemy's combat power will be greatly reduced. However, his side can maintain a strong fighting spirit for a long time and greatly improve his combat power.

This time, Kou Zhong was able to resist the tens of thousands of Tiance soldiers who were famous in the world with five thousand troops, relying on the dangerous terrain of Shengchengguan and this "Nine Nine Xuanwu Formation".

The enemy grandmaster who observed military situations on the opposite mountain a hundred feet away did not dare to take the risk of climbing from the mountain rope to the city center, so he naturally knew the power of the "Nine Nine Xuanwu Formation".

Chu Zheng was observing the formation inside Shengcheng Pass, and A Qing suddenly exclaimed: "Chu Loujun, are you going to start siege again below?"

Chu Zheng turned his head and looked at the foot of the mountain. The sound of the "Wuwuwuwu-" Cangwei horn was blown, and then the "Ruwu-rumble" sounded, and dense siege equipment and nearly 10,000 soldiers appeared in the "Dragon Mouth" in the Lijia camp.

This was the first time Chu Zheng saw the famous Tiance Army in the world, but he saw that his army was full of prosperity, with flags like the sea, with at least nearly 10,000 people. From his actions, he could see a well-trained and tough style, which was definitely different from other soldiers he had seen before.

The Tiance Army is really powerful.

Chu Zheng observed carefully and saw that in addition to the two flanks of thousands of cavalry, the front several square formations were shieldmen, archers, knives and siegemen, and the siegemen in turn. The siegemen in the front pushed various siege equipment such as catapults, pounding wood, ladders, and siegemen.

Even at a very long distance, Chu Zheng could feel the murderous intent coming to his face.

The sunset shone on the armor of the Li family army, with a bloody red light, adding a bit of murderous aura.

"Li Shimin really plans to attack the city day and night. It seems that he is determined to capture Shengcheng Pass as soon as possible..."

Now the wreckage in front of Shengcheng Pass has not been restrained. Obviously, it may be less than an hour before the last siege battle ended, but Li Shimin has launched an offensive again, which shows how firm his determination to break the city.

Chu Zheng turned his head and looked towards Shengcheng Pass again. Seeing that Kou Zhong and others looked as usual, they seemed to be used to similar scenes.

"Kill and kill!" At this time, nearly ten thousand Li clans shouted together, and the war horses neighed, and the murderous aura soared into the sky!

The tragic siege battle began again!

Since Li Shimin led his army to attack the city, it has been nearly twenty days since then. Several lines of defense that block the siege such as horse defense walls, pits, caltrops, deer horns trenches, and horse-resisting horses outside the city have long been cleared and filled out, allowing Li Shimin's army's siege equipment to directly approach Shengcheng Pass and attack the city.

Accompanied by the shouts of killing, several battle formations composed of tens of thousands of people and equipment slowly and firmly pressed towards Shengcheng Pass, with an amazing momentum.

But when he heard Kou Zhong shouting on the top of the city, "Li Shimin, aren't you boring to play the same routine every day? I heard that you have good sword skills and if you have the ability, you will come to play the head coach in person. How about it?"

His voice contained a strong internal energy, and it was still spread far away in the noise of thousands of troops, allowing everyone present to hear it.

The momentum that was originally suppressed in Shengcheng Pass immediately increased again. The soldiers of the young commander Feiyun Guard raised their swords, guns, bows and arrows to cheer, and their morale increased greatly.

But he heard a slightly feminine man's voice coming from the Panlong Camp: "Is that right? It turns out that the young marshal feels boring, that's fine. Today I will attack the city in a different way and let the young marshal have fun!"

The rhythm of the war drum changed, and the nearly 10,000 Li family troops who were slowly approaching Shengcheng Pass suddenly stopped. The Li family soldiers at the front immediately dispersed, revealing a large number of people who were wrapped in them.

These people are about a thousand unarmed, worn-out clothes, yellow faces and thin skin. Most of them are elderly people and women and children!

They were scolded and pushed and drove forward by Li soldiers, and cried and begged for mercy.

On the city of Guancheng, the young generals led by Kou Zhong were all in a state of disgrace.
Chapter completed!
