Chapter 179 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, very ridiculous

Chapter 179 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, very ridiculous (asking for monthly ticket)
Before setting off, we took into consideration that Xuanyou Horse would likely experience severe consumption tonight.

Geng Xuan ordered Hong Quan to mix more Xuanyou Pills into the food when feeding the Xuanyou horse.

While everyone was making various preparations for departure, Geng Xuan also asked Da Huang to take A Da and A Er for a walk around.

Because we just carried out a bloody cleanup of those increasingly unscrupulous stalkers.

The wilderness surrounding the villa was unusually quiet tonight, without a single person in sight.

Two quarters of an hour later.

Geng Xuan took the lead and galloped out of the "small oasis" where the villa was located.

More than 170 riders followed closely behind.

Two relatively weak Xuanyou horses followed Geng Xuan.

One horse carried Dahuang, Ada and Aer on its back.

The other horse carried a quiver and two longbows on its back.

One is as black as ink, the other is as red as jade.

The former has a slower firing frequency, but has a power bonus against heavy arrows.

The latter is good at continuous shooting, with a fast shooting speed and a long range.

After leaving the villa area, a group of Xuanyou horsemen quickly disappeared into the depths of the night wasteland.

When marching at night, because they are unfamiliar with the road conditions, in order to avoid tragedies, the Xuanyou cavalry will take the initiative to reduce their speed.

But for Geng Xuan, who sees night as day, as long as the sky still has the light of stars and the moon projected onto the earth.

Even if it is very dim, it will not have any impact on him.

This gives him a huge advantage over everyone else at night.

Geng Xuan rode his horse in front, his eyes roaming around the wilderness, looking for the flattest and most convenient route for the entire Xuanyou cavalry to pass through.

He would also adjust the speed of the Xuanyou horse under his crotch according to the road conditions.

Those Xuanyou horses following closely behind only need to follow it closely and do not need to think about anything else to ensure a smooth journey.

Even so, the speed of the entire Xuanyou cavalry was maintained at around 60 kilometers per hour.

Before long, Qingyuanji, which had circled far away from the wilderness, was left behind by them.

When Geng Xuan reined in his horse and ordered the entire Xuanyou cavalry to stop, they had already arrived ten miles north of Qingyuanji.

This was also the place where Fang Jintang, Qi Mingcheng and others chose to set up camp.

The place Wu Yi chose to set up camp was only about fifteen miles away.

But Geng Xuan, who arrived here, stopped and observed carefully for a while, but did not find anything unusual.

Geng Xuan thought about it and gave up the urge to continue exploring.

Instead, he summoned Huang Er through the connection that seemed blurry due to the long distance.

Soon, Geng Xuan felt that the connection was becoming clearer and clearer.

This means that Huang Er is approaching him quickly.

When the distance between Huang Er and himself was shortened to four or five miles, the originally vague connection quickly became clear.

In order to prevent Huang Er's specialness from being discovered by more people, Geng Xuan asked everyone to wait where they were and then rode away from the team alone.

Geng Xuan went deep into the wilderness alone. When he stopped his horse, he looked at Huang Er, who was gasping for breath with his mouth wide open, his tongue almost completely exposed, and an apologetic smile appeared on his face.

Huang Er started out about half an hour earlier than him, and he ran a longer distance.

When Geng Xuan summoned it just now, it had just returned.

Before it could even catch its breath, Geng Xuan called on it again.

Huang Er didn't feel wronged, but was very excited.

Geng Xuan placed his hand on Huang Er's head, sending it some good luck to speed up its recovery, while taking in the scene it saw after it reunited with Ah Liu and Ah Qi.

Wu Yi's camp of nearly two thousand people moved much slower than Huang Er's.

Huang Er had already run back and forth for nearly fifty miles.

Wu Yi's camp had only been dismantled by more than half.

However, the goods that have been loaded and are ready to depart at any time account for less than 20%.

At this rate, Wu Yi's team will need at least two hours to officially set off.

Because more than half of the camp was demolished, all the obstructions such as fences and barricades were removed.

Therefore, even though Huang Er only observed from a distance this time and did not get close to check, Geng Xuan still saw many details.

Some details reveal the many fatal hidden dangers of this team of nearly 2,000 people.

First of all, it is the Xuanyou cavalry that Geng Xuan cares about the most.

They were divided into small teams of more than a dozen people and scattered around the camp.

In Geng Xuan's opinion, rather than being responsible for vigilance, it would be more accurate to say that they were preventing those in the camp from escaping at night.

This shows that Wu Yi's speech at the time, which was a warning to others and a mixture of lies and coaxing, only suppressed the overt resistance.

Once they get the chance, many people will choose to slip away at the first opportunity.

It was really because Wu Yi's actions were too cruel, and he almost completely overdrew the reputation he had accumulated in Anleji over the years.

Before the reinforcements arrived today, he was so soft in his attitude in order to retain this group of combat forces.

After this batch of reinforcements arrived, he was very cruel in order to keep them.

He was coaxing people carefully one moment, and turned ruthless the next, using heads to enforce discipline.

The current obedience of these people is nothing more than a compromise under high pressure.

I don’t know how much hatred he must have in his heart!
Of the more than a thousand people surrounded by the Xuanyou cavalry within the camp, only two-thirds of them were actually working.

The other third stood quietly aside, neither joining hands nor moving away.

Some of them put their hands in their arms, while others held knives or swords and watched coldly.

This group of people should be the mercenaries hired by Wu Yi from Yuanjing at a huge price.

The estrangement between them and Wu Yi, and their indifference and alienation from those who came from Baiyuanji and Anleji, can be seen at a glance.

These discoveries made Geng Xuan realize that Wu Yi now possessed a very threatening force.

But this force itself actually has the risk of dispersing or even exploding at any time.

And these are not the most deadly.

The most deadly thing is that the Xuanyou cavalry that were leisurely cruising around the periphery of the camp were not wearing any armor!
Perhaps they never thought that someone would attack them at night at this time.

In addition, there are many other problems.

They did not deploy any scouts.

Since we have a plan to move the camp in front of Qingyuanji before dawn and give the people in Qingyuanji a big scare.

Shouldn't it be a basic operation to arrange people to explore the route now and eliminate various obstacles and hidden dangers that may exist along the way?

When the five families of Yueluyuan moved westward, they all knew that before the formal action, they had to arrange people to explore the roads along the way in advance.

Repair what needs to be repaired, and make up for what needs to be repaired.

In terms of awareness in this regard, these people are really not as good as Lifang!
Even if Wu Yi from a "small place" didn't understand this truth, did the reinforcements from Yuanjing also not understand it?

Geng Xuan couldn't help but sigh that back then, the Yuanzhou leaders decided to give up their martial arts.

What he was thinking about was to destroy Yuanzhou's "martial arts" and preserve his own "martial arts".

But over the past one or two hundred years, how could they not be affected by the environment?
They really think this is a larger-scale gang fight!
But Geng Xuan was not happy about this scene, instead he was very troubled.

He fed Huang Er another blood-replenishing pill and told it to go back and continue monitoring Wu Yi's camp.

He rode back on his own and reunited with the others.

Looking at the nearly two hundred cavalrymen standing quietly in the wilderness at night in a solemn and orderly manner, Geng Xuan believed that as long as he let everyone put on armor and launch a charge towards Wu Yi's camp.

This huge team of nearly two thousand people will be torn apart by him without any hindrance.

But facing such an opponent who fell at the slightest poke, Geng Xuan felt no joy but only a headache.

Because he knew very well that the result of doing so would be that except for the first group of people who were killed directly by him, the others would definitely flee in all directions quickly.

The number of people who would stay and continue fighting with him would definitely not exceed a hundred.

This is simply outrageous!
He has waited until now without taking the initiative to attack, isn't it because he wants to seek an evenly matched opponent?

If he wanted to be unstoppable, he would have launched an attack on Wu Yi's camp long ago. Why would he wait until now?

"If the enemy brought by the black luck catastrophe is of this quality, let alone 65 points, even if it is 650 points, what is there to be afraid of?"

"Sixty-five points of black luck, isn't that simply the sum of all the enemies' combat power?

But this kind of theoretical threat can only be achieved if everyone is united in purpose, thinking and working together!"

"As for the calculations of human hearts, they are all born out of selfishness and the various considerations of gain and loss.

Also, scruples, hatred, arrogance, ignorance... etc., are not within the scope of consideration of black luck, right?"

This time, Geng Xuan's intended result was to weaken the enemy to a certain extent while ensuring that the enemy as a whole did not collapse.

To ensure that when subsequent larger reinforcements arrive, the two sides will be balanced in terms of strength and morale.

——If he had just sat back and watched the situation develop as Wu Yi had planned and done nothing, he would have certainly ensured the integrity of the enemy.

However, such a one-sided situation could really lead to the collapse of the "rabble" in Qingyuanji without a fight, as Wu Yi said.

Whether the enemy or his own side was defeated, it was not what Geng Xuan wanted.

“Others fight the war, just make sure you win.

The cleaner the victory, the better.

I have so much more to consider.”

Geng Xuan couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Boss..." Geng Xuan's thoughts were interrupted by Hong Quan beside him.

Geng Xuan turned his head and looked over. Hong Quan asked in a low voice:

"Boss, what's the problem?

Could you please tell us so that we can all discuss it together?"

Geng Xuan thought about it and decided to reveal some information to them so that they would not be kept completely in the dark.

"I got the news that a group of Xuanyou cavalry with a size of about 200 cavalrymen from Yuanjing entered Wu Yi's camp.

Wu Yi is now organizing people to move the camp. His plan is to move the camp to the vicinity of Qingyuanji before dawn to intimidate those wavering people in Qingyuanji.

Besides these two hundred newly joined Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, Wu Yi's side will likely receive even larger reinforcements later."

After hearing what Geng Xuan said, everyone gasped.

Unlike Geng Xuan's concerns, they were really frightened by the sudden fate of the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, which had more people than them.

You know, in addition to this support force, Wu Yi himself has fifty or sixty Xuanyou Iron Cavalry!
Taken together, the difference in the number of Xuanyou Iron Cavalry between the two sides is very obvious.

What's more, this is not all, there will be reinforcements later.

You don’t even need to see such a scene in person; just hearing about it makes your scalp tingle!
And if Wu Yi really succeeds in moving the camp to the vicinity of Qingyuanji tonight, they can easily imagine how great a deterrent effect this will have on those fence-sitters in Qingyuanji!

Perhaps in the next moment, the coalition forces that were barely gathered together in Qingyuanji will fall apart.

Ding Fuquan whispered:

"Boss, do you want to lead us to attack Wu Yi and his men before they migrate, severely weaken them, and preferably interrupt their plan to move their camp to the vicinity of Qingyuanji?"

"Yeah." Geng Xuan nodded slightly. What Ding Fuquan said couldn't be wrong.

Ding Fuquan thought for a moment and said, "Boss, if that's the case, I think the number of people we have isn't enough."

"Hmm?" Geng Xuan looked at him.

Ding Fuquan explained: "It would be a good idea to strike Wu Yi and his men hard while they are on their way.

But they also have Xuanyou Iron Cavalry. If we are accidentally tripped up by them, we will immediately be surrounded by enemies.

The advantage of the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry is speed.

Once we get stuck and our speed is limited, the situation becomes very disadvantageous.”

"So, what do you think?"

“In order to prevent the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry from being trapped and losing its greatest speed advantage, we should add some more personnel who are specialized in infantry combat and blocking the enemy.

As long as we can run, things will be much better.”

After listening to Ding Fuquan's advice, Geng Xuan pondered silently.

Wang Hengshu next to him also suggested:
"Our Xuanyou Iron Cavalry is already fewer in number than the enemy's, and if we really get close to them for a close combat.

Not only will we lose our speed advantage, but we are also likely to be surrounded by the opponent.

Therefore, we should try to avoid direct contact with the enemy, and instead use bows and arrows, hidden weapons, javelins, etc. to carry out long-range harassment.

If they chase us, we should run far away and not give them the chance to contact us.

It was dark and the road was dangerous, so they were also afraid and even worried that we had set an ambush trap to deliberately lure them.

Therefore, even if they have the upper hand in strength, they would never dare to pursue them easily.

In this way, as long as our raid is decisive and sudden enough, and we don't overdo it, and we withdraw immediately after the deterrent effect is achieved, there shouldn't be any major problems! "

Geng Xuan, who was still deep in thought, suddenly looked up at Wang Hengshu, then at Ding Fuquan, and couldn't help wanting to praise him, "You two are really my perfect match!"

An attack that he had deduced would be unstoppable and devastating.

After they broke it down in a few words, it became that one must put in several times the effort to barely ensure a safe exit after achieving certain results.

It’s not easy, it’s really not easy!
And wasn't the solution to the dilemma he'd been puzzling over hidden within it?!
Geng Xuan was about to nod in approval of their suggestions, and Tao Bai next to him couldn't help but want to show off in front of the gang leader.

I just heard him suggest:

"If we follow Wang Hengshu's suggestion, it doesn't matter whether the number of Xuanyou Iron Cavalry we send in this raid is a little more or a little less.

In this case, there is no need for us to send all the Xuanyou cavalry forward.

This kind of surprise attack, especially in a night battle, can easily lead to chaos. Once chaos occurs, mistakes may be made in a hurry, and there is no guarantee that our Xuanyou horses will not be damaged.

These are the only Xuanyou horses we have. If we lose the advantage of the Xuanyou cavalry, our situation will be even more passive than it is now.

So, my suggestion is that we only need to send out half of the Xuanyou horses for this night attack.

In this way, we will be more flexible whether we are fighting or running.

Even if there are some losses, at least we still have a fairly large-scale Xuanyou Iron Cavalry!"

There are actually geniuses!

After listening to the suggestions of the three hall masters, Geng Xuan nodded repeatedly, and the frown on his face that was visible to others was completely relaxed.

He nodded and praised:

"Not bad, not bad. Your suggestions are all very good and valuable."

Geng Xuan looked at Hong Quan standing aside and said:

"Go to Qingyuanji and ask Feng Yu to mobilize all the gang members.

This time, let's work together to take him down!"

After hearing Geng Xuan's order, Hong Quan hesitated to speak.

Geng Xuan didn't want to listen to Hong Quan's advice at this time, and urged him directly: "Speed is of the essence in war, go and come back quickly, don't delay."

"...Yes." Hong Quan responded without saying anything else. He immediately rode his horse towards Qingyuanji.

Seeing Hong Quan walking away, Geng Xuan suddenly remembered something and said to Sheng Xiang and Gu Yuqun:

“You two go along too.

The situation is delicate now. Reinforcements have arrived from Wu Yi's side, and I'm worried that someone in Qingyuanji has already received the news.

At this time, Hong Quan entered Qingyuanji alone, and I was worried that someone would take desperate measures."

Upon hearing this, the two men bowed to Geng Xuan and rode their horses to chase after Hong Quan.

Geng Xuan saw them leaving and said to the others, "Let's go too."

Having successfully offered his advice, Wang Hengshu, feeling much more at ease in front of Geng Xuan, asked:
"Boss, where are we going?"

"Let's go back to Qingyuanji too." Geng Xuan said.

"what?"

Wang Hengshu looked confused.

The other hall masters were no better, and they all didn't know what the gang leader meant by his decision.

Geng Xuan explained:
"During this period, there were quite a few people in Qingyuanji who tipped off Wu Yi.

Since Wu Yi decided to break camp overnight tonight, I guess someone in Qingyuanji must have known about this in advance.

Once Wu Yi successfully moves the camp to the vicinity of Qingyuanji, they will most likely take the opportunity to stir up trouble and disrupt the situation in Qingyuanji as quickly as possible.

Once all members of our Giant Bear Gang go out without warning and leave Qingyuanji, someone will definitely tip off Wu Yi.

This way, the suddenness of our attack will be lost."

After listening to Geng Xuan's explanation, Wang Hengshu stroked his beard and nodded:
"So, Gang Leader, you want to intercept these people and prevent them from getting ahead of us and passing the message to Wu Yi?"

"Ah."

Geng Xuan nodded.

What he won't say is that this is just a superficial reason.

The method Wu Yi used today to deal with those who came from Baiyuanji and Anleji gave him inspiration.

And tonight's "surprise attack" on Wu Yi is destined to achieve little success.

While ensuring that the other team does not disband, the most you can do is scrape off a layer of flesh.

Thus, what is lost in the east must be made up in the west.

Therefore, Geng Xuan, who adjusted the "raid plan", also made a small adjustment to the target of tonight's attack.

……

After Geng Xuan led the Xuanyou cavalry back to the vicinity of Qingyuanji, he divided the team into five groups.

He personally led one team, and the four hall masters Ding Fuquan, Pang Wen, Tao Bai and Wang Hengshu each led one team.

After lurking and stalking in the wilderness near Qingyuanji for several days, Asan, Asi and Wu, who were already very familiar with the nearby situation and knew which roads the informants usually took, were also called out by Geng Xuan.

In addition, Geng Xuan also arranged for Da Huang to go out.

Let the four of them follow a team each to help search and track the enemy.

"Try to capture him alive if possible."

Geng Xuan gave these instructions before the hall masters led their teams away.

After making the arrangements, Geng Xuan did not lead the Xuanyou cavalry following him to wander around, but stayed in the wilderness north of Qingyuanji.

That is the location between Qingyuanji and Wuyi Camp.

In the eyes of other gang members, their leader was sitting upright on the horse, as if he was asleep.

In the world that only Geng Xuan himself can "see", wave after wave of ripples spread out in all directions with him as the center.

The range of these ripples was extremely wide, completely covering the nearby Qingyuanji.

The nearby remnants of the Chiwu Mountains, the vast wilderness, and Wu Yina’s camp more than 20 miles away were also covered by this wonderful ripple.

Of course, in Geng Xuan's eyes, whose perception was transformed into the ripple perspective, he could not see Qingyuan Ji or Wu Yi's camp. He could only feel the ripples spreading out from himself.

And just as the ripples were spreading, Geng Xuan immediately felt the presence of three other ripples.

As time passed, these ripples went from being fixed in a certain area to moving rapidly.

Then, like moths into a spider's web, they were immediately caught in the rippled web he spread out.

When the three ripples came to Geng Xuan, he looked down and saw three carrier pigeons standing docilely between the fluffy and dense mane on the neck of the Xuanyou horse in front of him.

When he looked down at them, they immediately cooed excitedly, flew around him, and landed on his shoulders. A wave of closeness flowed into Geng Xuan's heart. Geng Xuan first read the messages carried by the three carrier pigeons.

Well, without exception, they all reminded us that there were "unusual movements at the Giant Bear Gang's base."

It’s just that each has a different perspective, and the focus of the content is also different.

Geng Xuan just took a casual glance and turned the paper scrolls into powder.

What interested him most was the condition of these three pigeons.

Different from the twenty-six pigeons "captured" before in Yueluyuan.

Geng Xuan did not find any Qi connection established between them and another pigeon training practitioner.

In other words, they are "wild pigeons" that have not been controlled by pigeon training techniques.

This means that these pigeons are much less maneuverable, which also means that they cannot be caught unless you catch them yourself.

Otherwise, no one can hide behind the scenes and manipulate them.

So, what is going on?

Outside of the mature and complete pigeon system of Wuyou Palace, has anyone come up with the same goal by a different route and bred a suitable breed of pigeon?
And without the help of pigeon training.

Similarly, this could also have been done by someone inside Wuyou Palace.

Taking advantage of the already abundant and overflowing pigeon resources in Wuyou Palace, they secretly hatched and bred pigeons outside the system.

Their intentions may be deep or shallow.

Perhaps, it is just for the convenience of transmitting information.

During this period, whenever Geng Xuan passed through some densely populated areas, he would use this special ripple to find carrier pigeons within the range and thereby locate the Wuyou Palace's stronghold.

But since he harvested twenty-six carrier pigeons in Yueluyuan, he has never seen another carrier pigeon.

Geng Xuan guessed at the time that this was most likely a response from another person who had mastered the art of pigeon training after realizing that someone could unlock the connection between him and the pigeons.

But in Qingyuanji, Geng Xuan discovered the existence of carrier pigeons again.

Previously, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Geng Xuan had restrained himself from taking any action.

Now, Geng Xuan, who no longer had such concerns, finally captured the three carrier pigeons.

And this result is even more interesting than he thought.

……

Shortly after Geng Xuan captured the three carrier pigeons, a group of people riding on Yuanzhou's fine horses quickly left the north gate of Qingyuanji and quickly approached the direction where Geng Xuan was.

These people were none other than Feng Yu and all the other gang members stationed in Qingyuanji.

Hong Quan, Sheng Xiang and Gu Yuqun rode on Xuanyou's horse and walked behind them.

Not long after, Feng Yu, Hong Quan and others came to Geng Xuan.

"Gang leader."

"Gang leader."

After everyone greeted each other, Geng Xuan did not say much to them, but just asked them to wait quietly.

During this period, the four hall masters Ding Fuquan, Pang Wen, Tao Bai, and Wang Hengshu also sent people to deliver captured prisoners from time to time.

Some of them looked uninjured, but they kept begging for mercy as soon as they landed.

Some of them were covered with scars, and even their teeth were all knocked out. They looked quite miserable, with a look of death on their faces.

It can be seen that most of these people are those who seek death but cannot.

As for how to deal with these people, any gang member present is very skilled.

There was no need for Geng Xuan to give any further instructions. Feng Yu arranged for a group of gang members with the weakest cultivation level, who were only at the skin refining level, to guard those who had completely lost the ability to resist.

At the beginning, the four hall masters sent people to deliver prisoners at a relatively high frequency, but gradually, the intervals between each delivery became longer and longer.

Later, for half an hour, no new prisoners were delivered.

It was not until then that Fang Jintang and Qi Mingcheng, who had "realized it late", came out of the market and appeared in front of Geng Xuan.

The two looked at Geng Xuan, and Qi Mingcheng smiled bitterly and said, "Boss Su, why are you making such a big fuss again?"

Before this, Geng Xuan had without any warning ordered the arrest and execution of all those who were following the Xuanyou cavalry.

It doesn't matter who they are or who is behind them.

This has already put a lot of pressure on Fang Jintang and Qi Mingcheng.

After what happened tonight, the pressure on them will only increase.

Geng Xuan did not answer Qi Mingcheng's question, but Feng Yu sneered:
"Master Qi, please don't take advantage of me."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over Qi Mingcheng and Fang Jintang, and said:

"Don't tell me you still don't know what happened!
If that's the case, I'll have to look at you two with new eyes!"

Fang Jintang and Qi Mingcheng were both stunned when they heard this.

Feng Yu stared at them and continued:

"For the sake of justice, our leader has decided that the Giant Bear Gang will single-handedly resist this.

We took action tonight without informing you.

I don't think anyone will vent their anger on you. If not, it would be really ignorant!"

Fang Jintang and Qi Mingcheng were both silent.

They felt that they could not deal with those people in Qingyuanji and Santongji like "Su Ruiliang".

It is not only because of the difference in power, but also because everyone has been eating from the same pot for years, which has long formed a situation where you are in me and I am in you, and the situation is complicated.

Even if they wanted to take action, some of their subordinates might secretly let them go.

Therefore, with regard to the current situation in Qingyuanji, they can only control the overall situation, and they dare not be too demanding on the details.

Unless they have the determination of Wu Yi.

But, they didn't have a dead son, so why should they offend people to this extent?

At this moment, Geng Xuan's heart moved.

Through the connection that became blurred due to the long distance, he sensed that Huang Er, A Liu, and A Qi, who were specifically watching the actions of Wu Yi and others, finally started to move.

It was approaching him at a relatively slow speed.

This means that the nearly two thousand people in Wu Yi’s camp have finally packed up everything and started moving towards Qingyuanji.

Geng Xuan looked at Fang Jintang and Qi Mingcheng and said:
"I'm going to take my people back now. From now on, I'll leave Qingyuanji to you two to take care of. Is that ok?"

Qi Mingcheng sighed, and with a look of shame, he bowed to Geng Xuan and said:
"Boss Su, let us take care of the Qingyuan Collection next.

I promise that no one will disturb your activities tonight!"

Geng Xuan nodded, connected with the life energy of Da Huang, Asan, Asi and Wu, and ordered them to return.

Not long after, they returned with four Xuanyou cavalry teams.

In fact, arranging so many people to go out and catch those who leaked information is really like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

However, since there were not enough people, Geng Xuan himself was a little worried.

It’s not that I’m worried that the gang members will be in danger, but I’m worried that they will do something reckless.

The more people are arranged in each team and the more diverse their sources are, the more concerns everyone will have.

Another thing is to take this opportunity to give everyone more experience.

After everyone returned, Geng Xuan first ordered all the Xuanyou riders to put on armor immediately.

He also specially gave Feng Yu the special armor that Wu Youxin once wore.

After the Xuanyou Cavalry became the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry, Geng Xuan rode in front and Feng Yu followed beside him.

The Xuanyou Iron Cavalry followed behind the two men, and the rest of the nearly three hundred gang members, riding on the half-shorter Yuanzhou horses, followed closely.

Leading the team forward slowly, when Geng Xuan estimated that Wu Yi and others had walked about four or five miles, he ordered Huang Er to return again.

Geng Xuan said to Feng Yu, "I'll go ahead and check out the situation."

After giving some instructions, he rode away quickly, leaving the main force behind.

The reason he did this was that he didn't want others to discover the specialness of Huang Er for the time being, because this might bring additional danger to it.

After meeting the returning Huang Er, Geng Xuan put his hand on its head.

Soon, the situation in Wu Yi's camp appeared in Geng Xuan's mind again.

One thing soon caught Geng Xuan's attention.

More than two hundred unarmored Xuanyou cavalrymen rode their horses slowly in front, behind, and on both sides of the team, surrounding the people driving the carriages or the carts loaded with goods that were pushed by many people in the middle of the team.

There's nothing strange about this.

It is both a protection and a way to prevent these people from escaping.

But there is one group that is an exception.

That is a group of mercenaries numbering about 500 people who came from Yuanjing.

They drove no wagons, nor carried any baggage.

It was also not within the protective circle formed by the Xuanyou cavalry.

Instead, he rode alone on a Yuanzhou horse, following the migrating team neither too far nor too close, neither too fast nor too slow.

They were independent and always maintained a gap of at least twenty or thirty steps between themselves and the main migrating group, even at the closest point.

From their deliberate alienation, Geng Xuan seemed to hear their inner voices.

"Don't touch me!"

Geng Xuan had an idea in mind, and as usual, he sent a little Hongyun and a blood-replenishing pill into Huang Er's body.

Patted its head and praised:
"Well done, go back and keep watching. If they still maintain this formation, just ignore them.

If there is any change, come to me immediately."

"Woo woo~~" Huang Er responded and then went away excitedly.

……

After Geng Xuan returned, he immediately shared the latest information he had received with Feng Yu.

Feng Yu didn't ask why his gang leader knew so much about the movements of Wu Yi and the others, and started thinking directly.

Geng Xuan whispered, "This time, I want to eat all those mercenaries."

"Ah?!" Feng Yu was surprised.

Is the appetite of our gang leader a little too big?
Not to mention the 500 elite warriors at the bone refining and blood refining levels. Not only are their numbers greater than that of the Giant Bear Gang, their average level is also stronger than that of the Giant Bear Gang.

Not to mention that there is one person in the middle stage of marrow refining and four people in the early stage of marrow refining, and they know this.

What if there is a hidden marrow refining realm that has not been exposed?
They were trying to prevent the news of Qingyuan Collection from leaking out. Who could guarantee that Wu Yi hadn't anticipated that the news would leak out in advance, so he deliberately mixed in some half-true and half-false news?
Geng Xuan said:
“I plan to leave this matter to you, and this is the support I can give you.

I will allocate one hundred Xuanyou Iron Cavalry to you for use!

The six hall masters will all act with you!
Except for the seventy-four Xuanyou Iron Cavalry who belong to me, the rest of the gang members are also handed over to you.

And you only need to deal with this group of mercenaries and try to get rid of them as quickly as possible.

The rest of the matters, including the more than 200 Xuanyou cavalry and nearly a thousand other people, are all left to me!"

After listening to Geng Xuan's story, Feng Yu's eyes widened in shock, "Boss, this... you... you can... how much time can you buy me?"

He had meant to say, "Can you do this?"

But before he could say anything, he realized that what he said was a bit inappropriate and quickly changed his words.

Geng Xuan did not guarantee that he would be able to support you no matter how long you delay.

Instead, he said, "One hour. I can buy you one hour."

Feng Yu took a deep breath, then bowed solemnly to Geng Xuan and said:
"Boss, please rest assured. I will definitely live up to your trust!"

If he didn't dare to agree to this matter under such circumstances, he would despise himself.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the gang leader can use only 75 riders to block the mountain-like pressure.

Seeing Feng Yu agreed, Geng Xuan said to him:

"You pick the men first, and leave me only seventy-four."

Feng Yu nodded and did not hesitate to pick out all the six hall masters who were in the early stage of marrow refining. He also picked out ninety-three powerful riders.

Except for Hong Quan and Xie Hang who were left to the gang leader, all the Bone Refining Realm masters were taken into his own bowl.

While he was selecting people, he was also paying attention to the changes in the gang leader's expression.

Seeing that he was really unmoved, Feng Yu felt a little guilty.

"Boss, how about I save some good hands for you?"

Geng Xuan waved his hand and said, "Just keep going. You don't need to worry about me."

Feng Yu looked at him seriously, making sure that he was not lying, and then nodded and said, "Okay."

He no longer considered anything else and only thought about how to use the power in his hands to eat up all those mercenaries.

Before they knew it, the team had once again arrived at the place in the wilderness ten miles north of Qingyuanji where Fang Jintang, Qi Mingcheng and others had set up camp.

Geng Xuan reminded:
"Be careful, we'll meet in four or five miles."

Feng Yu raised his head and looked forward while riding on Xuanyou's horse. He could already see a ray of fire slowly approaching in the dark wilderness in the distance.

Those flames were the torches held high by Wu Yi's team.

Just as Feng Yu was staring at the flames in a daze, the gang leader sighed softly beside him: "Tell me, is this too arrogant, or too stupid?"

Feng Yu didn't answer after hearing this, but seemed to be thinking about something. The heavy mood in his heart inexplicably dissipated a lot.

"Boss, how about we set up an ambush here?" Feng Yu said.

“Why choose here?”

"Because this place is open enough, it will be convenient for the Xuanyou Iron Cavalry to deploy later.

Besides, a lot of soil was dug around the camp to build it, which will be very convenient for us to hide."

"Okay, then you arrange it."

Feng Yu went to make his own arrangements, while Geng Xuan handed over the seventy-four Xuanyou Iron Cavalry that followed him to Hong Quan's command.

Seeing that he looked more relaxed than Feng Yu, Geng Xuan couldn't help but wonder: "Aren't you nervous?"

Hong Quan was silent for a moment before he whispered:

"I only ask that you don't kill us too hard and leave us some soup."

After hearing this, Geng Xuan wanted to laugh out loud.

However, considering the wrong occasion, he still endured it.

……

A team of nearly two thousand people, holding torches high, looked like a fire dragon crawling in the darkness.

Of course they knew that with such a huge noise, there was likely someone watching in the dark.

But the people riding on the tall and mysterious horses had no reason to be afraid.

The number of people at the bone and blood refining levels is in the thousands, and the number of marrow refining masters may not be enough to be counted even if you count them three times with the ten fingers of both hands.

They also have their own Xuanyou cavalry, which is famous throughout the nine provinces, to support them.

What are they afraid of?
They were just afraid that Qingyuan Ji would turn a blind eye to the power they displayed and would just flirt with a blind man!
Riding his horse slowly at the front of the team, a young man who looked to be in his early thirties could not help but look around at the dark wilderness around him.

A middle-aged man with a handsome face, a slender figure, and a long black beard that made him look extraordinary saw this and frowned:

"Shichiro!"

Hearing this, the young man quickly withdrew his gaze from all directions, looked straight ahead, and straightened his back.

He knew that his third uncle was fine in other aspects, but he was very strict with his family, especially the younger generations, in terms of etiquette and behavior.

Anyone who travels with him, and unfortunately is his direct descendant, will be strictly watched every time he walks, sits, lies down, eats, or sleeps.

But looking at the dark night around him, and remembering the master's instructions, he couldn't help but remind him:

"Uncle San, the head of the family has said that the enemy we are facing this time is very different.

It is said that he is very unruly!
Let's take out the armor in the car and put it on.

The closer we get to Qingyuanji, the more uncertain I feel."

The bearded man shook his head and sneered:
"You believe what the Patriarch tells you?

Then why don't you say that the reason we went to such great lengths this time was because of a concubine giving birth to a child?"

The young man couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said:

"This is not the same thing as what I'm talking about now, right?
If you have any complaints about the Patriarch, you can go back and discuss it later. Let's first take care of the current matter."

The bearded man shook his head and said:
"You still don't understand, you think these are two different things? This is actually one thing!

In order to make his woman happy, he believed the news made up by Wuyou Palace.

Don’t you know that we are actually being used as pawns by Wuyou Palace on this trip?
So many people died in his Wuyou Palace, but he just kept his head down and didn't show up.

But we are so different. After a concubine and her child died, we rush forward in a hurry. Aren’t we despicable?
Do you know how everyone is laughing at us now?"

After hearing this, the young man felt a little desperate.

A sound of pain escaped his lips.

The bearded man frowned and scolded: "Speak properly."

The young man felt even more distressed and said:
"Uncle San, how can we not explain it clearly? Yes, what you said makes sense, and I agree with it.

But this has nothing to do with our current situation. Can you wait until you return to Yuanjing to talk about your emotions?
Now, let's think about what's happening right now, okay?"

The bearded man snorted disdainfully, "In front of you? Haha, I'm not saying... uh!"

The bearded man, who seemed to be planning to continue outputting some negative energy, suddenly fell silent.

The young man who was looking straight ahead felt something strange and turned his head to look.

Then, he felt his head explode.

I saw that my third uncle, who was praised by everyone for his good looks and good manners, had been shot in the middle of his forehead by an arrow as thick as a thumb.

The arrow flashing with a cold black light pierced through Uncle San's head from front to back.

The sharp arrow shot out from the back of Uncle San's head, bringing out suspicious red and white liquids that dripped down from the tip of the arrow.

The surroundings became extremely quiet.

Deadly quiet.

At this moment, the young man felt that the world had become unreal.

Then, suddenly, violent and loud shouts rang out among the crowd.

There were also exclamations.

And, a humming sound like the low singing of night insects.

The young man looked up blankly.

At the edge of the light illuminated by the torches, arrows seemed to suddenly appear, falling from the sky and accurately kissing the bright foreheads.

In the flickering firelight, a series of unreal figures rushed out of the night and rushed towards them head-on.

The world in the eyes of young people comes alive again.

When he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt dizzy.

As he was spinning, he saw a group of sinister and murderous Xuanyou cavalry passing by him.

And his headless body was still spewing out his last bit of blood in vain.

How ridiculous!

This was the final feeling in the young man's heart as he bid farewell to this world.
