Wife, you didn't really drug me, did you?

Chapter 384: The army attacks the mountain, the Dragon King arrives!
Tuotuo prepared to launch two simultaneous attacks. One was the three armies of the imperial court, namely the Baoxiang, Bailu and Canglang armies, which would attack Zoroastrianism head-on and confront it head-on. Their target was also very clear, which was the high-ranking officials of Zoroastrianism and the people of the Five Elements Flag, the main fighting force of Zoroastrianism.

Next are the six major sects. The six major sects took a detour from the back mountain path of the Zoroastrianism and went straight to Guangmingding. Their goal was to capture the Zoroastrianism leader, Xiao Mingwang, who was staying at the top of the mountain.

This is two strategies in one, one is to lure the tiger away from the mountain, the other is to capture the leader first!
It can be said that this plan was vicious. If Tuotuo's plan really succeeded, the morale of the entire Zoroastrianism would be over.

Don’t worry about whether the church recognizes Little Ming King’s identity or not, but you have to remember that Little Ming King is Han Shantong’s son, and he has a good family background, even if no one in the church recognizes Little Ming King.

But people all over the world still recognized him. Regardless of anything else, in this battle, even if Guangmingding was not captured, as long as the little Ming King was captured, the battle would be half won.

The hearts of the people in the world that have been united by Han Shantong will also fall apart.

This is the important strategic purpose of Tuotuo’s trip.

Tuotuo was thinking, and then the subordinates rushed over after seeing the six major sects leave. They looked at Tuotuo and said, "Prime Minister, isn't it a bit unsafe to send only the six major sects? How about sending two masters?"

Tuotuo shook his head and said, "No, the six major sects are enough. The masters cannot be moved. The other side is not completely ignorant of our troops this time. As long as we use the masters, the other side will react immediately. On the contrary, these insignificant six major sects will not cause any waves. After all, everyone knows that they are just making up the numbers this time."

That’s right, the six major sects are indeed just there to make up the numbers this time, and both the imperial court and the Zoroastrianism know it.

Only some of the leaders of the Upper Furnace Realm were involved in the attack from the six major sects this time, without mobilizing the real core members of the sects, that is, those legendary masters of the Melting God Realm.

For example, Gu Hongzi of the Emei Sect, the big master of the Tang Clan, Mr. Tiejian of Kunlun, Master Kudu of Shaolin, Senior Feng of the Five Mountains Sword Alliance, and the living legend of Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng.

Seriously speaking, if Zhang Sanfeng took action, Guangmingding would have moved overnight. The slightest hesitation showed his disrespect for the immortal on earth at that time.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, both sides did not take the six major sects seriously, so it was not very important where they appeared on the battlefield.

As Tuotuo was thinking about it, he heard a burst of drum beating in the central army, and the next moment he heard someone sounding a ox horn.

The melodious sound of a horn was heard, and the entire space suddenly shook.

woo woo woo...

Hearing the sound of the horn, the three armies of the imperial court began to gather in an organized manner. All of a sudden, under the Bright Summit, the three armies showed their magical powers.

The Canglang Army was murderous and gathered quickly. All of them were wearing leather armor with colored patterns on them and holding long swords and shields. At first glance, they were obviously an elite force.

The commander of the Canglang Army, King of Qi Li Siqi took the lead, unsheathed the long sword in his hand and pointed it forward: Form a formation, kill!

"kill!"

The whole army shouted in unison: Kill!

Immediately afterwards, the army attacked forward together at an incredibly fast speed, directly pressing the entire army forward.

They directly merge into a blue ocean, giving people a terrifying and solemn feeling.

On the other side, the entire White Deer Army gathered. The soldiers of the White Deer Army were also wearing armor and holding spears in their hands, and they were arranged in a neat formation.

The commander of the White Deer Army, the Prince of Ruyang, Chagan Temur, raised the long-handled broadsword in his hand and waved it: "Go."

The entire army immediately pressed forward.

Boom boom boom!
A drum sounded, and the White Deer Army and the Canglang Army immediately dispersed, revealing their middle position. At this time, several huge monsters were seen slowly walking forward.

When everyone looked, they saw five giant elephants, wearing armor, walking forward like gods. There was a chair on the elephants, on which sat the four commanders of the Baoxiang Army. The one sitting at the head of the chair was none other than the commander-in-chief of the Baoxiang Army, Borod Timur.

The Baoxiang Army consists of elite soldiers selected from across the country. Each of them is strong and sturdy. These strong men are not wearing heavy armor, but half armor, which only covers their vital parts.

In his hands he held two heavy maces, like two pieces of ivory.

This is the standard equipment of the Baoxiang Army soldiers, called the mother-and-child mace. The mace is one long and one short. The long one weighs 28 kilograms and the short one weighs 18 kilograms.

Long for attack, short for defense.

Some people may ask if 28 kilograms is too light. If you think so, you are totally wrong. You must know that this mace is a weapon. It needs to be wielded on the battlefield, and it may take one or two hours to wield it. If it is too heavy, no one can persist.

Unless he is a top-level general, but how many top-level generals can there be?

Therefore, twenty-eight kilograms is not light. You should know that the knife in the hand of a normal soldier weighs only seven or eight kilograms, or even three or five kilograms.

The spear also had a shaft made of ash wood and an iron head. The spear weighed about eight or nine pounds, and the weight was evenly distributed over the entire shaft, so the weapon was not too heavy when used in battle.

Those that are too heavy cannot be swung.

These Baoxiang soldiers were able to wield copper maces weighing more than 30 kilograms to kill the enemy, which was considered a great skill in the martial arts world.

These Baoxiang soldiers, wearing half armor, military boots, and holding mother-and-child maces, followed the giant elephants and advanced on both sides.

The coordination with the giant elephant was perfect throughout the whole process. If Chen Jie saw this, he would probably doubt whether this was the earliest infantry-tank coordination in China!

The three armies marched out together and attacked directly towards Guangmingding.

To attack Bright Summit head-on, one must break through seven gates, namely Iron Blood, Wolf Smoke, Natural Barrier, Cloud Platform, Golden Spear, Lone Pine, and Forgotten River!

As long as you get through these seven levels head-on, you can directly attack the Bright Summit.

Moreover, these seven levels all have their own functions. The first level, Iron Blood Level, is the first line of defense. It is not steep, so when defending, you must have an iron will and use real swords and guns. You fight for your life and shed blood, hence the name Iron Blood.

The second level follows closely, and the second level is the wolf smoke. The so-called wolf smoke is to inform the people on the mountain in time. Its main function is to set off the wolf smoke to let the defenders on the mountain know that the enemy is coming.

Next comes the third level of natural danger. As the name suggests, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is the first real obstacle of Guangmingding. If you want to capture it, it is impossible without sacrificing lives.

The fourth level, Yuntai.

As the name suggests, Yuntai is half hidden among the white clouds, creating a visual obstruction for the enemy. However, the view looking down is excellent, so it is often used as the base camp of high-level officials.

It has the effect of commanding the overall situation.

The fifth level, Jin Ge.

Jin Ge is a defensive place when Yuntai, the fourth level, falls. The terrain is even more rugged, and some narrow places can only accommodate one carriage. It is the second real line of defense of Guangmingding, a place where one must fight hard, and a strategic buffer after the third level cannot be defended.

Level 6: Lone Pine!
This place was actually named after the Welcoming Pine Tree that stood here. It was a flat buffer area that was often used to store military supplies needed for the entire Seven Passes.

The seventh level is Wangchuan!
Needless to say, this place is the last gateway to Bright Summit. If this place is breached, then Bright Summit will be in danger. Just like the Forgetful River, if it cannot be defended, then one will go to the Yellow Springs, which means the final place.

These are the seven major levels of the Zoroastrianism’s Guangmingding.

As the imperial army moved, the Zoroastrians at the first pass, Tiexue Pass, saw it. When they saw the Canglang Army and Bailu Army coming like a flood, the two thousand defenders at the first pass were stunned with fear.

They swallowed their saliva at this time, but before they finished swallowing, they saw the Baoxiang Army set out.

When the terrifying giant elephant, which was nearly three meters tall, appeared, everyone was so frightened that they dared not speak.

At this time, the soldiers guarding the second pass also saw it and shouted in panic: "Attack, attack, hurry up and light the signal."

After hearing this, someone immediately lit a signal fire.

Mr. Guan, who was on the cloud platform, saw the billowing smoke. At the same time, he could also see the situation below clearly from the cloud platform and saw the attack of the imperial army.

At this time, Mr. Guan had a solemn expression, followed by the five flag masters of the Five Elements Flag.

At this time, the faces of the five flag owners were not very good.

Mr. Guan pondered for a moment and said, "The imperial army is coming with great force and obviously has no good intentions. You must be prepared for a tough battle."

After hearing this, the Five Elements Flag Master said, "We swear to live and die with the Holy Church."

Mr. Guan nodded slightly when he heard this, and then said, "Xing Ran."

"My subordinate is here."

At this time, Xing Ran, the leader of the Fiery Flag, arrived with a fist clasped. Mr. Guan asked, "Is the Fiery Flag ready?"

Xing Ran said: "More than 3,000 people under the Fiery Flag are all ready to live and die with the Holy Church."

"Okay, pass on my order now. The people of the Fiery Flag should hide on the left side of the natural barrier and prepare to attack the enemy with fire when the flag signals come."

"Yes, I obey."

After hearing this, Xing Ran immediately turned around and left, leading his men to the left side of the Tianxian Pass, ready to fight the enemy with fire at any time.

At this time, Mr. Guan continued, "Flood Flag Master Tang Yang."

"My subordinate is here."

"I order all of you from the Flood Flag to ambush on the right side of the natural barrier. After the Fiery Flag releases its flames, you will release poisonous water to attack the invading enemy. There must be no mistakes."

"I obey my orders!"

Tang Yang, the leader of the Flood Flag, immediately bowed and prepared to attack with the Flood Flag.

At the same time, Mr. Guan continued, "Giant wood flag, sharp gold flag."

"My subordinate is here."

At this time, Wen Cangsong, the leader of the Giant Tree Flag, and Wu Jincao, the leader of the Sharp Gold Flag, both came out and clasped their fists.

At this time, Mr. Guan said: "The giant wood flag faces the enemy head-on, and the sharp gold flag shoots from a distance. We must stop the imperial army at this natural barrier."

"Yes."

The two of them immediately responded, and then Mr. Guan continued, "Where is the Houtu flag?"

"My subordinate is here."

The leader of Houtu Banner, Yan Heng, immediately clasped his fists.

Mr. Guan said, "The rolling logs and rocks, the mechanical ropeways, all of these are your responsibility, and you must make sure nothing goes wrong."

"Yes."

Yan Heng spoke immediately.

At this time, Mr. Guan asked, "Where are the twelve guardians?" After hearing this, all the guardians who had not yet entered Guixu stood up and said, "We are here."

Mr. Guan said: "You are the ones who will command the remaining 30,000 followers. Cooperate with the giant wood flag and the sharp gold flag to keep the enemy out of the gate."

"Yes."

Everyone immediately responded by clasping their fists.

Soon everyone was assigned to the resistance formation, and at this time the person behind Mr. Guan said: "The imperial army is almost at Tiexue Pass, shall we support them?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Guan said, "Send an order. All the troops at Tiexue Pass and Langyan Pass must evacuate the passes and not engage in battle. The Houtu Banner has already selected an escape route for them."

"Ah, King of France, retreating without a fight will hurt morale?"

At this time, the Zoroastrians behind him asked, and Mr. Guan said with a cold look: "The people coming from the court are all elite, and there is no strategic location to defend the Iron Blood Wolf Smoke Pass. Why waste lives in vain?"

Mr. Guan sighed, then put his hands behind his back and looked down and said, "I have to say that the imperial court has really spent a lot of money to deal with our Zoroastrianism."

"Baoxiang, Bailu, Canglang, three legions, more than 50,000 people, Bolo Temur, Chagan Temur, Li Siqi, three masters of the Heavenly Ranking, plus a prime minister Tuotuo who carries half of the dragon energy of Daqian. This lineup is too luxurious."

"It's enough to destroy the country."

Mr. Guan looked at the army below and muttered, "Yes, such a powerful army is enough to destroy a country."

He knew that the Zoroastrians could not defeat them, but he had to fight. Sometimes people in the martial arts world really had no choice.

It's not easy to be a leader.

Mr. Guan thought about it, looked back at the back of the mountain, and said, Du Zundao, Du Zundao, I hope you don’t disappoint me. You must practice this Qiankun Dafa, otherwise, our Zoroastrianism will be wiped out!
Mr. Guan thought so and felt unsure as to why things were suddenly changing when everything was going well.

Who on earth stole Du Zundao's Qiankun Dafa?

As Mr. Guan was speaking, the person behind him immediately said, "Your Majesty, I looked around and saw only the imperial army, but no troops from the six major sects."

After this was said, Mr. Guan said, "We should go around the back mountain."

"Ah, then, King of Dharma, should we send someone to guard the back mountain?"

After hearing this, Mr. Guan said, "No need. The six major sects are not that powerful. The Tiger King can't cause any trouble in the mountains. Let's just take care of the things at hand."

Upon hearing this, the man immediately said, "Yes."

After saying this, Mr. Guan was in no mood to say anything else. He put his hands behind his back and looked at the army attacking the mountain below. There was an indescribable emotion brewing in his eyes.

In this battle, the most important thing is not the opponent's three legions, but the fact that the opponent has too many masters, including three on the Heavenly Ranking. How can one resist such a lineup by oneself? One can only hope that the opponent will make a move later.

Mr. Guan thought so.

At this time on the top of the mountain.

"Hey, why is there no one on the mountain? Where are the Zoroastrians?"

A girl's voice was heard, and then a voice was heard saying, "Sister, stop making trouble. This time, our father asked us to protect the little king Ming and evacuate safely. You are not allowed to make trouble."

"I know, I know, brother. You are so nagging."

"But brother, I just don't understand. Father has already left the religion and established his own country. What does the Bright Summit incident have to do with him? Why would he lead the people to wade into this muddy water?"

After hearing this, the boy opposite did not answer for a long time, and then said: "This is also what your father is worried about."

"I asked my father, and he said that although he left the religion and established his own, he would always worship the Dragon King of the Fire Religion. Now that the Holy Religion is in trouble, how could he not come to help?"

Fang Zheng said righteously, "Father has always been very concerned about Zoroastrianism. When King Ming died in battle, Father was very sad and it took him half a month to recover."

Fang Susu heard this and said, "I don't understand. They had such a bad relationship back then, how can they reconcile just like that?"

Fang Zheng said: "It's not about reconciliation, it's about feelings."

As the two were talking, Lei Ming, the deputy leader of the overseas Shenlong Sect, followed them.

Lei Ming is the deputy of the Dragon King who entered the sea, and was also the Tiger Lord who was once one of the twelve elders of the Zoroastrianism.

Later, Fang Guozhen left the sect, and Lei Ming followed Fang Guozhen away. Later, the position of Tiger Lord was inherited by the later Tiger Elder, Hu Shanjun, who was killed by Chen Jiusi.

Lei Ming looked at the two of them and said, "Okay, let's stop talking too much. Let's find Little Ming King quickly. The Dragon King's order is to preserve Ming King's only bloodline. This mission cannot fail."

After hearing what Lei Ming said, the two immediately said, "Yes, Uncle Lei."

Lei Ming said: "Let's go to Mingwang Palace and take a look."

Normally, the Ming Wang needs to stay in the Ming Wang Palace. As one of the twelve elders, Lei Ming naturally knows the basic structure of Zoroastrianism.

Therefore, he took the two of them to the Mingwang Palace with ease.

At this time, on the tower in front of the Zoroastrianism's Wangchuan Pass, a man stood there with his hands behind his back, and no one saw him.

He was wearing a navy blue robe with dragon patterns embroidered on it. His eyes were as bright as lightning and he had the air of a king, with the power to dominate the world.

At this moment, he looked at the soldiers rushing towards him like a flood. There was a solemnity in his eyes, but more of it was a sense of defeat. Even if there were thousands of troops, they were nothing in front of him.

Let me ask you, how many people in this world can be my opponent?

He just watched quietly, as if recalling the past, the glorious years!

I was stunned for a moment.

At this time, Qin Bao, the leader of the Thunderbolt Hall, who was following behind him, came to report: "Dragon King, there was movement in the back mountain, it seems that people from the six major sects are coming up."

The Dragon King looked at the battlefield below, frowned slightly, and then said: "I can't leave here for the time being, you go and join Lei Ming and the others. We don't care what the six sects do, but if they want to touch Little Ming King, that is absolutely not allowed."

"Yes, I understand."

After responding, Qin Bao immediately left to meet up with Lei Ming and the others.

Fang Guozhen took a deep breath at this time. It seemed that today's battle would not be easy.

Even as strong as he was, he felt that this battle was not so easy to win. After all, his opponents were three powerful men on the Heavenly Ranking. Even though he was quite conceited, he still felt deeply powerless facing three powerful men on the Heavenly Ranking.

But there was nothing he could do. After all, things had come to this point and he couldn't ignore the safety of Zoroastrianism.

Thinking of this, Fang Guozhen's eyes were blank, ready to intervene in the battlefield at any time.

He is a Zoroastrian.

The battle outside was already in chaos and darkness, and Du Zundao was still waiting in front of Guixu.

When King Ming saw Du Zundao's appearance, he knew that he could no longer play any role here, so he could only turn around and leave helplessly.

Watching the back of the young Ming King leaving, Du Zundao called out, "Ming King."

Han Liner paused for a moment, turned back to look at Du Zundao and said, "Uncle Du, do you have any advice?"

Du Zundao looked at Han Lin'er and said, "Since you call me Uncle Du, I will tell you something from my heart. No one is convinced that you are the King of Wisdom. If it were a peaceful time, all this would be easy to say. But nowadays, the Holy Church needs a King of Wisdom who is decisive, and you don't have this decisiveness."

Han Liner looked at Du Zun and said, "Then uncle is the right person?"

Du Zundao was silent for a moment after hearing this and said, "Actually, I am not either. I will not accept anyone taking the position of leader except your father."

"Unfortunately, the Ming King has passed away. Now I can only take over your father's business and temporarily take over the Holy Church."

Du Zundao sighed a little.

Han Liner said, "Uncle is so submissive to my father. I wonder if he has taken my place. How will I explain this to my father after a hundred years?"

Du Zundao smiled bitterly and said, "It's a helpless act. I think the King will forgive me."

Han Liner nodded gently and said, "Uncle, just be at peace."

Du Zundao looked at Han Lin'er and said, "Yes, Xin'an, in fact, I should kill you to feel at ease. After all, your existence is always a variable for me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the guards around Han Lin'er felt as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

Du Zundao smiled and said, "Relax, I want to kill him, you can't stop me."

After saying that, he looked at Han Lin'er and said, "But, I gave up after thinking about it. After all, you are his only bloodline, and I can't let him lose the incense, so I will save your life."

Han Liner heard this and said, "Then I have to thank you, uncle."

Du Zun said: "Don't be sarcastic, you will thank me."

After saying this, Du Zundao looked up at Guixu and said, "Okay, you don't have to wait here. Even if they come out next time, they won't be able to give you the Qiankun Dafa. You can stay in the Mingwang Palace first. There is a passage leading to the outside. When I get the Qiankun Dafa, I will learn the first level as quickly as possible, then open the passage and let you leave here first."

"If you wander off, I can't protect you."

The Little Ming King fell silent after hearing this. He looked at Du Zundao, then sighed and said, "Thank you very much, Uncle Du."

After saying that, Han Liner turned and left, because he knew there was no point in staying any longer.

Watching Han Lin'er leave, Du Zundao looked up at the sky, his eyes gradually becoming more focused as he said, "Ming Wang, you saved my life back then. Now that the Holy Church is facing a disaster, I will also save your son's life. This is my repayment to you."

After saying that, his eyes suddenly stared at the entrance of Guixu, "Chen Jiusi, why don't you come out? Come out quickly, I can't wait any longer."

Today, let's resolve both the Qiankun Dafa and the grudges in Guixu, hehe...

When Du Zundao thought of this, his eyes became more sinister. Chen Jiusi, I will make sure you die a miserable death!
At this time, in Guixu, Chen Jie stood with his hands on his waist and pointed at Han Linger, Liu Caidie, and many Zoroastrian elders around him.

"Everyone, listen to my command. As the saying goes, you cannot return empty-handed after entering a treasure land. My strength is limited. Everyone, please find me some medicinal herbs and treasures. Do you have any objections?"

Chen Jie glanced over and saw the Zoroastrian elders who had come down with Du Zundao, such as Chen Long and others, hiding behind them with their hands covering their bruised and swollen faces. They were scared of being beaten by Chen Jie.
