I summon all the famous generals in history in another world

Chapter 1042 Taking the opportunity to ask
"Chief, do you know how many crossbows Yang Jian has deployed on the Qujiang defense line?"

Mo Ranchen, however, seemed to be oblivious to the noise and just chuckled as he looked at the tangled muscles in the gaps between Chi You's armor.

"Could it be that Marshal Mo is trying to deceive me? That old man Yang Jian doesn't even dare to open the city gates, how much inventory can he have?"

Chi You was using the tip of his Tiger Soul Knife to pick up a piece of beef and put it into his mouth. Hearing this, he paused. The dark red lines on the blade glowed bloody under the candlelight:
"Eight hundred."

Mo Ranchen picked up the wine jug and filled two cups. The amber wine created ripples in the cups.

"Each one is equipped with twelve giant armor-piercing arrows. The arrowheads have been soaked in the miasma of southern Xinjiang, and they are now as strong as the copper skin and iron bones of the demon soldiers..."

He suddenly raised his eyes, and his wide moon-white sleeves brushed across the sand table. The jade carving representing the bed crossbow actually turned the two words "Jiuli" into a hedgehog in an instant.

"Master Mo, are you going to use me as a whetstone?"

A muffled thunder-like laugh emanated from Chi You's throat, and the devil's aura exploded, causing the candle flames in the tent to shrink by three inches.

"What a coincidence! My Tiger Soul Blade loves to chew on hard bones!"

He suddenly took half a step forward, and the animal tooth pendant on his horn helmet jingled.

Xuanyuan Po leaned on the tiger-skin chair, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the snake-shaped golden ring. He looked at the two people confronting each other in the tent, and suddenly remembered the hideous demon shadows hovering in the night sky when Chi You got the demon tattoo not long ago.

"If Chief Chiyou can break the Qujiang defense line."

Mo Ranchen suddenly put his fingers together to form a sword, and the ink sword energy drew a winding waterway on the sand table.

"We, the anti-king alliance, can give all of Yang Jian's 81 battleships to him."

As he spoke, the broken jade fan snapped open, and the Canglang River painted on the fan actually shimmered in the candlelight.

"Master Mo is so generous! But I heard that..."

Chi You's pupils suddenly shrank, and he placed the Tiger Soul Blade heavily on the ground. The dark red lines on the blade throbbed like blood vessels.

"Alliance Leader Xuanyuan also has a 3,000-man Nanman elephant army under his command. Those huge beasts are much more powerful than crossbows in crushing city walls."

He suddenly drew out his words, and his black cloak fluttered without wind.

Chi You also realized that Mo Ranchen wanted him to be the spearhead, but he did not refuse.

Instead, he rolled his eyes and began to ask for benefits from Xuanyuan Po, and directly pointed out that he was quite attracted by the 3,000 southern barbarian elephant soldiers under Xuanyuan Po's command!

In his opinion, the Jiuli army under his command, led by the demon soldiers, could be easily broken by the Qujiang defense line!
Therefore, you might as well take this opportunity to ask for some benefits!
As soon as Chi You put forward this condition, Xuanyuan Po Guang clenched his fists tightly under his sleeves, and the snake-shaped golden rings on his wrists jingled. These 3,000 elephant soldiers were his treasures that he had spent three years to tame. Each elephant was covered with three layers of fine iron armor, and even if the maces in the hands of the strongest soldiers hit them, they could only leave a white mark.

"The chief has a very sharp ear."

"But the elephant soldiers have big appetites. They eat three thousand kilograms of beans every day..."

Xuanyuan Po suddenly chuckled and looked at Chi You's rough face.

He suddenly discovered that beneath this guy's rough appearance, there was a shrewd heart.

"My Jiuli son is just in need of some mobility."

"If you are willing, after we conquer Qujiang, I will personally make a pair of black iron saddles for the elephant soldiers!"

Chi You suddenly interrupted his words, and the demonic energy spread along the blade, condensing into a ferocious demon shadow in the tent.

Mo Ranchen's hand holding the cup paused slightly, and the cinnabar mole at the corner of his eye was shockingly bright under the candlelight.

He recalled the strange phenomenon he saw last night when he was observing the stars—a demon star suddenly lit up next to the Purple Star Emperor, and it actually echoed the direction of the Jiuli Tomb from afar. "Since the leader said so..."

Xuanyuan Po suddenly stood up, his wide black sleeves swept across the wine cup on the table, and the amber wine flowed like a river on the sand table.

"Then, as long as the Jiuli army under the leader is willing to serve as the main force and attack the Qujiang defense line in three days, I will allocate the elephant soldiers to the Jiuli tribe!"

As he spoke, the snake-shaped golden ring suddenly began to move and formed a strange talisman around his wrist.

Xuanyuan Po is a qualified hero. Although it is not easy to form three thousand Nanman elephant soldiers, in his opinion, it is worth it to let the Jiuli army and the demon soldiers under Chiyou serve as the main force in the attack!
As a powerful leader, Xuanyuan Po made a choice in a short time and quickly agreed to Chiyou's request!
"Hahaha, good!"

"Then my Nine Li army will serve as the vanguard for Leader Xuanyuan this time!"

Chi You laughed wildly, and the devil's aura exploded, causing the dust on the top of the tent to fall off.

"I just don't know when the leader's three thousand elephant soldiers will arrive at Cangwu Mountain?"

Chi You suddenly restrained his breath, and the demonic aura receded like the tide. He turned and looked at Xuanyuan Po. The animal tooth pendant on the ox-horn helmet played the prelude to death in the night wind.
Xuanyuan Po's sleeves fluttered, and the tent instantly returned to calm.

"Don't worry, leader. When the Jiuli army is in place in three days, I will prepare three thousand Nanman elephant soldiers for you!"

He suddenly picked up the wine jar, and the dark red wine rolled down his Adam's apple, leaving bloodstains on his black robe.

"When the first round of moonlight falls on the surface of Qujiang River, the three thousand southern barbarian elephant soldiers will crush Yang Jian's crossbow!"

He suddenly lowered his voice and tapped the table with his fingertips.

Upon hearing this, Chi You laughed loudly, his black cloak swirled in a fishy wind, and he turned around and walked out of the tent, disappearing into the night in an instant.

"Ran Chen, how confident do you think Chi You is?"

Xuanyuan Po looked at his receding back, and suddenly raised his wine cup to toast the sky.

"Ten percent!"

Mo Ranchen brushed away the sand on his sleeves, leaving his moon-white robe spotless.

"Just wait until Qujiang is conquered..."

"I wonder if you are willing to give those eighty-one warships to Jiuli?"

He suddenly turned around, and the cinnabar mole at the end of his eye was so bright under the candlelight that it was shocking.
"Haha, why should we be reluctant? Once we defeat the Great Xuan Navy, we will have as many battleships as we can get!"

Xuanyuan Po clapped his hands and laughed, tapping the sand table heavily with his fingertips.

Three days later, at 3:30 am, the sky was still dark, but the reeds in the Qujiang River had startled a flock of gulls and herons. The entire Qujiang defense line was shrouded in blue-gray mist, and the sound of the river hitting the rocks sounded like the muffled sound of war drums.

Chi You walked barefoot on the dew-soaked grass. His dark red animal skin armor glowed faintly under his black cloak. The animal tooth pendants on his ox-horn helmet swayed gently in the morning breeze, and the tinkling sound was filled with the fishy and sweet scent unique to the wilderness.

Behind him, the Jiuli army swept over the valley like a black tide. More than ten thousand Jiuli soldiers held bronze bone shields and snake spears, with ferocious Taotie patterns tattooed on their bare chests and bronze rings hanging from their earlobes. When they walked, they made crisp sounds when their swords struck each other, as if the witch music from ancient sacrifices had returned to the world.

"Captain, the elephant soldiers are still thirty miles away."

The messenger came riding at full speed, his horse's hooves crushing the frost on the ground.

Chi You bared his fangs upon hearing this, and the tip of his Tiger Soul Blade drew a semi-arc against the ground. The dark red energy followed the blade and penetrated into the soil, instantly causing the wormwood within a hundred feet to grow wildly, turning into a thorn cage over ten feet high, covering the entire Jiuli army - this was the "Blood Thorn Sky Covering Formation" secretly passed down by the Jiuli witches, which could block the scouts from spying and make the blood of the soldiers in the formation boil.
