Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 869
At the same time, Huo Wugou sent by the 'Suzaku Kingdom' to the western front in the 'Sinking Sea' was also having a hard time.

Huo Wugou is a descendant of Huo Snake, who left the family rules for the family back then:
'For the descendants of the Huo clan, only women can inherit the surname 'Huo', and the position of patriarch can only be held by female clan members forever. '

Huo Wugou is the most outstanding descendant of the younger generation of the Huo Clan.

He is 39 years old this year. When he was born, the seven stars in the night sky - Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang - were in full bloom, and star imprints were manifested in his left and right hands respectively.

When its hands are closed, it can condense the power of the seven stars to form 'Ziwei Tianhuo'.

This is one of the nine divine fires, on the same level as Zhang Ke's 'Red Lotus Fire' and Vientiane's 'Nanming Lihuo'.

The South Dipper marks life, the Big Dipper marks death!
The 'Ziwei Tianhuo' born from the power of the Big Dipper has unique damage.

The characteristic of this fire is that it ignores defense. The function of this characteristic is not that the device or defensive skills are invalid, but that once the fire encounters resistance, it will show a very strong penetrating effect.

The stronger the defense, the more powerful the fire will be when it penetrates the defense.

If you compare 'Nanming Lihuo' with 'Ziwei Tianhuo', it seems that one is gunpowder and the other is steel cone, each has its own strength.

Because of the 'Ziwei Tianhuo', Huo Wugou has been fully cultivated by his family since he was a child.

And Huo Wugou lived up to expectations. He became a "totem teacher" at the age of 16, and became a "doctor" at the age of 24.

At the age of 36, he had cultivated the "Three Meridians and Seven Wheels Contemplation Thoughts" to the seventh level, and became a practitioner at the same level as Zhao He.

At the same time, thirteen kinds of innate supernatural powers were awakened.

But what is most talked about is that Huo Wugou disliked that his own awakened supernatural powers were not strong enough, so he just disintegrated these thirteen supernatural powers and re-condensed a powerful supernatural power.

'Arrows never miss'

This was purposefully deduced by Huo Wugou through controlling his own blood.

The function of this supernatural power is "must hit". When the target is selected by the mind, the attack will definitely hit the target.

Cooperating with her family-inherited archery skills, Huo Wugou can easily hit targets [-] meters away.

Coupled with the characteristics of 'Ziwei Tianhuo', she can easily kill a master of the same level ten miles away.

Possessing such a powerful lethality may only show that Huo Wugou's combat effectiveness is amazing.

But if she cooperates with her proficient 'totem master' halo power and the healing ability of 'herbal doctor', she is not just a powerful master.

Huo Wugou perfectly integrated all his abilities, and he was able to snipe and kill targets ten miles away.

You can also use the shot arrows to set up a halo formation to bless your own battle formation.

In addition, various healing spells of the 'Langzhong' can be cast through arrows.

One can imagine what a huge impact such a person can have on the battlefield!
With seven stars in hand, you can command tens of thousands of soldiers!

I don't know when, this statement gradually spread widely in the capital and was recognized.

When Huo Wugou was sent to defend against foreign enemies as the commander of the western front, she made a lot of preparations.

People who can bear their temper to deduce their magical powers will probably not be too impatient.

She first applied to go to the eight hundred vassal states to accompany her, and then carefully selected twelve battalions of soldiers and horses from the garrison battalions in each city.

In order to strengthen his ability to continue fighting, Huo Wugou recruited [-] 'totem masters' and 'doctors' by virtue of his connections within the system of 'totem masters' and 'doctors'.

In addition, hundreds of family members were recruited in the name of the Huo clan.

You must know that these family children will not be alone when they go to the battlefield, almost everyone is equipped with hundreds of elite family masters.

With just one move, tens of thousands of masters were recruited for her.

As for all kinds of armament resources, the more the better, even the newly developed Hundred Bull Siege Crossbow of the 'Suzaku Kingdom' brought three of them.

And on the way to lead the army to the "Sinking Sea", he kept grinding the team almost day and night, rehearsing various battle formations, tactics and emergency response methods.

It can be said that Huo Wugou has done what he can do to the extreme.

Moreover, Huo Wugou also asked the kingdom to conduct a large-scale conscription based on the enemy intelligence collected during the march, and was ready to give reinforcements at any time.

Huo Wugou did not have Zhao He's huge ambition and desire to become famous in one fell swoop.

The Huo family is one of the six founding elder families of the kingdom, and the interests of the entire family are tied to the country.

Therefore, Huo Wugou just wanted to do what he was going to do well in peace.

Moreover, she agrees with the kingdom's external strategy, as long as the front line can be held, the invading 'All Souls Tribe' will eventually retreat.

For this reason, Huo Wugou even made a plan to continue fighting with the 'Wan Ling Tribe' for 50 years.

As a second-generation top official who is extremely talented, famous and powerful at a young age.

Being able to be so prudent, regardless of gains or losses, and to concentrate on doing one thing wholeheartedly, far surpasses Zhao He in terms of ambition.

But despite being so cautious, when Huo Wugou led his troops to the 'Zhikonghai', he still suffered a lot.

The "Tribe of All Souls" has as many as 800 million soldiers and horses to attack this time.

After it defeated or expelled the navy stationed in the "Suzaku Kingdom" near the "Sunken Sea", it established a base here.

Thousands of large warships were locked together with iron chain hooks, and a sea land with a radius of hundreds of miles was established in the "Sunken Sea" sea.

Its main force is stationed on this sea and land, waiting for the right opportunity to launch a general offensive.

Another 500 million troops were sent to attack the many cities and camps established by the 'Suzaku Kingdom'.

It is not only to create pressure on the 'Suzaku Kingdom', but also to understand the strength of the 'Suzaku Kingdom' through the battle.

Numerous large and small teams attacked everywhere like swarms of ants, and soldiers and horses from the "Tribe of All Souls" were everywhere near the entire 'Sunken Sea'.

After more than half a year, nearly a hundred cities and camps in the 'Suzaku Kingdom' were destroyed by it.

The 'Tribe of All Souls' has a complex race, and all the creatures in the cities and camps destroyed by it have become its food.

Nearly a hundred cities and camps, with a total population of more than 300 million people, were all made into military rations, and these countless people suffered extremely cruel and cruel humiliation and abuse before they died.

This news cannot be hidden at all. When it caused great panic among the soldiers and civilians in the cities and camps along the line, it also strengthened the desperate resistance of the cities and camps.

This also led to the fact that although the 'Wan Ling Tribe' had a large number of forwards, it was still unable to expand the results of the battle, and even the front line did not advance much, but continued to fight in the area near the 'Sinking Sea'.

And the desperate resistance of the various cities and camps also caused considerable losses to the vanguard of the 'Wan Ling Tribe'.

Huo Wugou arrived at the 'Sinking Sea' in this kind of see-saw stalemate.

Fighting on the battlefield is like two people wrestling close to each other. You advance and retreat, and you cling to each other. If it is not for the disparity in strength, when one party exerts force, the other party will also react according to the force.

Therefore, when Huo Wugou led the army to the 'Zhikonghai', it directly attracted the attention of the 'Wanling Tribe' striker camp.

In order to prevent our own troops scattered in all directions from being broken by the 'Suzaku Kingdom' one by one.

Feeling the danger and pressure, the vanguard camp of the 'Wan Ling Tribe' was burning, killing and looting everywhere. They gathered naturally, and millions of people rushed towards the 'Twelve City' where Huo Wugou's army was assembled.

The 'Twelve Linked Cities' is one of the nine lines of defense deployed by the 'Suzaku Kingdom' on the western front. It consists of twelve large cities that form two staggered lines of defense.

These cities are connected by strong walls, like two barriers to keep the 'Tribe of All Souls' going south from the city.

The first order that Huo Wugou issued after entering the 'Twelve Linked Cities' was to let the residents of all the camps on the west side of the 'Twelve Linked Cities' move to the defensive line here.

Clear the wall!

A single fortress can't fight against the striker camp of the 'All Souls Tribe'. No matter how long it persists, it will be breached, and the soldiers and civilians in it will instead become the enemy's supplies.

Therefore, Huo Wugou was going to give up everything west of the 'Twelve Linked Cities', using this place as the first line of defense against it.

But after the two sides actually fought, Huo Wugou realized the powerful strength of the 'Tribe of All Souls'.

Only on the first day of fighting, the 'Suzaku Kingdom' suffered nearly 8 casualties, and this was due to the fact that our side was defending the city and had a large number of 'doctors'.

In contrast, the 'Tribe of All Souls' suffered more than 30 casualties in the first day of the siege.

This result greatly exceeded the expectations of the coaches of both sides.

In this battle, Huo Wugou mobilized the power of the seven stars to hang above the 'Twelve Linked Cities', and quickly cast the supernatural power of 'Arrows without Empty Shots'.

Streamers containing blue flames and sparks shot at the generals commanding the battle and the brave fighters in the enemy's formation.

A hundred shots hit a hundred hits, and the arrow never misses a shot!
Anyone hit by an arrow containing 'Ziwei Tianhuo' will not be spared.

Even a giant with a height of more than thirty feet was easily shot to death by Huo Wugou at a distance of two hundred feet.

Such a powerful long-range attack ability can't help but make all the senior generals in the "Wan Ling Tribe" forward camp feel terrified.

Because of Huo Wugou, many powerful senior generals of the 'Wan Ling Tribe' didn't even dare to take the lead in attacking.

Will be the courage of the soldiers!
Without the generals who took the lead in the charge and lost the commanding 'Wild Soul Tribe' sergeant, so many ethnic companies could not do it together, let alone launch an attack on the 'Twelve Liancheng'.

In addition, Huo Wugou also shot a series of totem arrows containing the power of halo to bless his side, and from time to time he used the arrow array to perform the "Sweet Rain Rejuvenation Formation" to heal his wounded soldiers.

Although Huo Wugou was only one person, he suppressed the overall offensive of the 'Wan Ling Tribe'.

The 'Suzaku Kingdom' was able to cause so much damage to the 'Wanling Tribe' on the first day, Huo Wugou owed a great deal of credit.

From this day onwards, Huo Wugou entered the line of sight of the senior management of the 'Wan Ling Tribe'.

In order to get rid of this enemy who has a huge impact on one's side.

The next day, the 'Wan Ling Tribe' used the siege of the army as a cover, and sent [-] masters from various tribes who were at the same level as Yuanshen to assassinate Huo Wugou.

The distance of [-] zhang is not too far for these masters, not to mention that some of them also use all kinds of weird concealment and space magic powers.

However, Huo Wugou's supernatural power of 'Arrow without Void' is so terrifying, after being sensed by him, even if he escapes in the space gap, he can be killed by one arrow.

What's more, Huo Wugou will bring three 'Hundred Bull Siege Crossbows' to join the attack.

This is an extremely terrifying point-to-kill large-scale city defense weapon.

When the "Suzaku Kingdom" was attacked by the blood flame dragon, it suffered great damage. After learning from the pain, the "Suzaku Kingdom" finally designed a variety of powerful point-to-air and ground-killing city defense weapons.

The 'Hundred Bull Siege Crossbow' is one of them, and when it locks on the target, it can launch a thunderous blow.

Therefore, when the three hundred masters charged, every time they heard a herd of cows mooing, a white line would strike one of them like lightning.

Accompanied by the azure rockets that shot rapidly across the sky, the three hundred masters of the 'Wan Ling Tribe' were killed without even touching the walls of the 'Twelve City'.

After this battle, the striker battalion of the 'Wan Ling Tribe' also gave up its tricks, and mobilized all its strength to launch a non-stop offensive against the 'Twelve Linked Cities'.

Facing such a terrifying attack from the 'Tribe of All Souls', if Huo Wugou hadn't been in command, no one would have been able to resist it.

In just one month, some cities of the 'Twelve Linked Cities' had changed owners several times. At the most dangerous time, Huo Wugou could only rely on the six cities of the second barrier to defend with difficulty.

But in the end, Huo Wugou insisted on leading his soldiers to take back these lost cities again and again.

In the process of tug-of-war, many "doctors" and "totem masters" have played a huge role that no one can imagine.

It can be said that without these people, Huo Wugou would not be able to withstand the attack of the 'Tribe of All Souls'.

Because of Huo Wugou's tenacious resistance, the 'Twelve Linked Cities' has since become a flesh and blood mill for the two sides to fight.

Every day, a large number of soldiers from both sides were killed in battle. Due to the loss of too many creatures, the sky above the 'Twelve Linked Cities' was shrouded in a layer of faint gray clouds all the year round.

In the tumbling clouds and mist, countless creatures were faintly fighting among them, and the screams and shouts filled the ears of every creature in this area like the sound of magic.

Because of Huo Wugou's stunning performance in defense, a resounding name gradually spread among the enemy and himself.

'Iron Fortress'

This title represents everyone's recognition of Huo Wugou.

It's funny to say that every ability of Huo Wugou tends to be offensive, but he is forced by the battlefield to give him the title of "extreme defense".

One year later, 1000 million soldiers from the 'Kingdom of Luo' came out from the 'Land of Fertile Fields' and launched an attack on the 'Kingdom of Suzaku'.

Almost at the same moment, the main force of the 'Tribe of All Souls' also left the sea and land, and marched towards the western front in a large scale.

Huo Wugou, who was defending the 'Twelve Linked Cities', immediately felt the pressure surge. It was unrealistic to rely on millions of soldiers to fight against an opponent several times higher.

Huo Wugou didn't take strict precautions, but took the initiative to retreat when the battle was lost, and used the nine defensive fronts on the western front to block the attack of the 'Wild Soul Tribe'.

At the same time, letters of appeal for help were sent to the capital quickly.

The sixth day of September in the third year of the lunar calendar.

Flame Bay City.

Suzaku Hall.

Monarch Shan Yin frowned and thought about the battle,

His ears were full of noisy discussions from the courtiers, feeling that his thoughts had been interrupted several times, Shan Yin was a little annoyed, and reached out his hand to pat the armrest of the throne heavily.

"Snapped--"

The chief of the inner court guard who was accompanying him immediately took a step forward and shouted in a deep voice:

"quiet!"

The muffled sound of drinking reverberated in every corner of the hall, and many courtiers who were arguing ceased immediately.

Shan Yin swept his eyes below, and said in a concentrated voice:
"Prime Minister Zuo!"

Yuan Jiang took a step, bowed and saluted:
"Chen is here!"

Shan Yin continued:
"Yesterday, news came back from the northern front that three more cities were captured, and the military and civilians suffered heavy losses.

Over the past few years, [-]% of the [-] fortresses in the north have been captured, and the 'Lihun Mountain' has sharp soldiers. I wonder if Prime Minister Zuo has a good strategy to deal with it? "

Hearing this, Yuan Jiang couldn't help sighing in his heart.

Since Zhao He's defeat on the front line four years ago, the kingdom's northern front has shown signs of decline. The root of all this comes from Zhao He.

Yuan Jiang didn't hate Zhao He for losing the battle. Since it was a war, there must be winners and losers, but Zhao He shouldn't return to the capital after being defeated.

He is the commander-in-chief of the Tenth Battalion of the North, and millions of soldiers are waiting for his command.

Because he returned to the capital on his own, the northern front was leaderless, and was taken advantage of by 'Lihun Mountain' to gain a foothold in the north.

Although Shi Gandang, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, immediately sent someone to take over, he still couldn't recover from the unfavorable situation. He has been suppressed and beaten by the 'Lihun Mountain' tribe for the past few years.

Since Zhao He was Yuan Jiang's son-in-law, he was strongly recommended by him to be the commander of the Northern Ten Battalion.

Being implicated by Zhao He, Yuan Jiang has been abused by other courtiers for several years, and even the monarch Shan Yin is very dissatisfied with him.

Hearing the question from the monarch at this moment, Yuan Jiang replied in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, since the autumn of [-], the 'Lihun Mountain', the 'Wanling Tribe', and the 'Luo Kingdom' have invaded our country from the north, west, east, and three directions. This is clearly premeditated."

Shan Yin said impatiently:

"I don't need to talk about these well-known things. I just want to ask you, now that the war is not good for all parties, how to resolve this crisis?"

Four years ago, "Lihun Mountain" and "Wanling Tribe" attacked the "Suzaku Kingdom" successively.

A year later, an army of 1000 million from the 'Kingdom of Luo' also left the 'Land of Fertile Fields' and launched an attack on the 'Kingdom of Suzaku'.

As agreed, when the 'Luo Kingdom' sent troops, the 'Leaving Soul Mountain' and the 'Wanling Tribe' stepped up their offensive at the same time.

At this moment, the four major forces of the 'Mountain and Sea Realm' formed a three-on-one situation.

Thanks to the strategy laid out by Zhang Ke back then, the countless cities and fortresses played a vital role at this moment.

The most important thing is that Wanxiang is defending the Eastern Front at this time. After discovering the traces of the "Kingdom of Luo" army, she immediately took over the Tenth Battalion on the Eastern Front.

The "Suzaku Kingdom" has 28 large camps for guarding the cities, and [-] large camps for foreign wars.

Among them, the North Ten Battalion guards the northern front, and the East Ten Battalion guards the Eastern Front. Except for the 'Suzaku Battalion' which is directly controlled by Vientiane, five battalions of the other seven battalions are naval soldiers and were defeated by the 'Wan Ling Tribe' .

The last two battalions were led by Shi Gandang, the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

However, although Shi Gandang is called the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he actually guards the capital all year round and does not go out easily, so he only has two battalions of troops in his hands.

The strength of 'Luo Kingdom' is no worse than that of 'Lihun Mountain' and 'Wanling Tribe'.

It has a powerful puppet army, which is a metal puppet with a height of more than one foot and six feet. It is difficult to hurt with a sword and can use various weapons.

These puppets are a kind of mechanical creation, and under the control of the "puppet master", they can fight like arms and fingers.

A five-meter-high mechanical puppet, one can imagine how powerful its frontal combat capability is.

A weak 'puppet master' can only control ten to twenty puppets, but a powerful 'puppet master' can control hundreds of puppets.

When the puppet army launched an attack head-on, it had never encountered an opponent that could contend with it.

With the ability of the 'Luo Kingdom', it was impossible to refine this kind of metal puppet.

But since Zhenjun Feihong dared to use the 'Conflict between Dao and Demon' to decide the outcome, there is naturally a way to bypass the [Qi Ban] rule.

He first cultivated a "puppet master", and then spread the method of refining metal puppets through a method similar to Zhang Ke's "Yellow Beam Entering Dreams".

After the method of smelting spirit ore was disclosed to the public, after 300 years of development, the "Kingdom of Luo" finally produced 100 million metal puppets.

In addition, there are marksmen who are good at bows and assassins who can hide under the moonlight.

It's no wonder that many Dongtian Zhenjun were optimistic about the "Luo Kingdom" at the beginning, thinking that he could win this war.

You can attack the 'Suzaku Kingdom' together with 'Luo Kingdom', 'Lihun Mountain' and 'Wan Ling Tribe'.

Almost all human cultivators in this world are dissatisfied with Zhenjun Feihong.

The 'Suzaku Kingdom' is the only remaining human power.

As a member of the human race, shouldn't the 'Luo Kingdom' join hands with the 'Suzaku Kingdom' to fight against the forces of the 'Sky Demon', and then fight each other for victory?

You must know that the human Dongtian Zhenjun who can come to this world are all disciples of the 'Nine Heavens Swinging Demons'.

The three views of disciples in this vein tend to be just, and they are in absolute opposition to the 'Heavenly Demon'.

Zhenjun Feihong's move is clearly in collusion with the 'Heavenly Demon'. Even if he can win the final victory this time, he will lose his status as a disciple of the 'Nine Heavens Slaughtering Demon'.

After realizing the rapidly growing national power and huge war potential of the "Suzaku Kingdom", he resolutely decided to join forces with Jiuluo and Aqiluo to destroy it in one fell swoop.

There are many reasons why he did this, except that after feeling the threat of the 'Suzaku Kingdom', Zhang Ke's behavior of destroying the [Qi Ban] made him deeply resentful towards Zhang Ke.

This treasure does not belong to him, he borrowed it temporarily from the sect.

【Qi Ban】With such a serious injury, I must pay a huge price for it.

In addition, he was a little jealous and jealous of Zhang Ke's strength, and finally made an extremely unwise behavior.

It's a pity that Zhenjun Feihong didn't expect one thing.

That is, it is a good suggestion for the three parties to jointly attack the 'Suzaku Kingdom'. No matter how powerful the 'Suzaku Kingdom' is, it will be difficult to resist the encirclement and suppression of the three parties.

However, if one of the three forces fails to reach the predetermined battlefield, it will not be able to form an encirclement trend, and then there will inevitably be flaws in this plan.

What made him even more unexpected was that this flaw appeared in his own place.

After Vientiane took control of the East Tenth Battalion, it immediately launched an attack on the rushing 'Luo Kingdom'.

Although she only has 500 million troops, relying on her strong command ability and personal combat power, she has defeated the "Kingdom of Luo" with tens of millions of troops.

No matter how powerful the army is in front, Vientiane will always be the first to rush into the enemy line as always, and then defeat the enemy line with the assistance of the 'Suzaku Battalion'.

The core of the method of "combining troops and gathering potential" lies in "gathering" and "potential".

The 50 soldiers of the 'Suzaku Camp' are all people who have awakened to 'Nanming Lihuo', and are naturally compatible with Vientiane.

When they gather together to form the 'Suzaku Formation', the endless power of 'Nanming Lihuo' can make Vientiane burst into unimaginable power in a short time.

When Vientiane charged with the golden red flame, the sky and the earth became a sea of ​​flames.

Whether it was the sea of ​​puppet legions or the terrifying rain of arrows flying all over the sky, they all turned into molten iron ashes in the flames.

Whenever the red Suzaku flag flutters up, the East Tenth Battalion will flood the position of the 'Kingdom of Luo' like a surging red ocean.

As the vanguard of the "Kingdom of Luo" was defeated and returned to the "Land of Fertile Fields", Vientiane followed closely behind with 500 million soldiers from the East Tenth Battalion.

Since this day, the East Ten Battalion has lost contact with the 'Suzaku Kingdom'.
