Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 416 A Big Drama

Wei Ben, the vanguard officer of the Han State, killed Ma Zhao, the general of the Qi State, in twenty rounds.

The morale of the Han army was greatly boosted. Li Jing waved the military flag, and the infantrymen in the front line, wearing iron armor, charged head-on into the Qi army like an indestructible wall.

The armor coverage rate of Qi State was too low. Not to mention cooperation between the soldiers, they didn't even know each other before today. Many times they could only unite and form formations based on their familiarity with each other. The large formation of Qi State suddenly became dozens of small formations of varying sizes.

Su Quanzhong laughed loudly. This time he did not use the Fang Tian Hua Ji, but took out a horse-slaying sword. He rushed into the enemy formation like a meat grinder, slashing left and right.

Daji looked at him with some worry, and Deng Chanyu told her not to be anxious, saying, "Your brother is just bullying the weak ones. What's so dangerous about this?"

Han and Qi fought for an hour. The veteran general Lu Xiong was ruthless enough. He continuously sent troops of 200 princes into battle, taking the opportunity to wear down the elite strength of the Han army.

Even the strongest soldier would not be able to withstand fighting for an hour wearing armor weighing fifty or sixty kilograms.

Li Jing saw the old man's intention and decisively sent Huang Feihu's family generals Zhou Ji and Huang Ming to lead the chariot soldiers to attack from the left and right wings.

He finally looked at Zhang Guifang.

Even though the Han Kingdom was a vassal state appointed by King Zhou himself, he still participated in the war as a retainer of Deng Chanyu.

This kind of thing is not new. In history, Zhang Fei released Yan Yan out of kindness. After that, Yan Yan was unwilling to surrender to Liu Bei and remained Zhang Fei's retainer.

Now Zhang Guifang also plays a similar role, and Deng Chanyu's consent is needed to transfer him.

Deng Chanyu called Zhang Guifang over and said, "General Zhang, lead the cavalry into battle. Be careful of that female cultivator named Bian Caitian."

Zhang Guifang was a human immortal before. After she became her disciple, she was treated similarly to the little maid Hongxiao. She could get some guidance from her from time to time. She could not learn Nuwa's skills, but she could get answers to some problems in cultivation. She could also get some cultivation resources on weekdays. Now Zhang Guifang is also a terrestrial immortal, and her cultivation has almost caught up with Nezha.

The young and energetic Nezha could fight back and forth with Huan Xitian, not to mention a veteran like Zhang Guifang.

Benzaiten never found an opportunity to kill with one blow, so he simply didn't make a move.

Zhang Guifang's cavalry went around to the side of the chariot soldiers and fired a hail of arrows at the enemy formation.

The battle between the two sides lasted from Chenshi to Shenshi. The battlefield was littered with corpses, and most of the dead were from Qi. The old general Lu Xiong's military strategy was indeed top-notch, but his soldiers were not good enough, so no matter how good his command ability was, it was useless.

The sound of a gong was heard from the direction of Qi State, and the front formation became the rear formation. More than 15,000 corpses were left at the scene. The veteran general commanded the army to retreat slowly and in an orderly manner.

That night, Zhang Guifang led his troops to raid the camp. Even though he was the bravest among the three armies and had killed two generals of the Qi army, he was still stopped by the tight defense of the veteran general Lu Xiong.

The old man knew that his martial arts skills were no match for Zhang Guifang, so he didn't play any tricks in a one-on-one fight. As long as Zhang Guifang rode her horse to charge, he would shoot arrows, and the arrows would rain down on her. No matter how good her martial arts skills were, she wouldn't dare to charge head-on.

Deng Chanyu also sent General Xiao Qiao to lead the Wudang Flying Army she had formed to cross mountains and ridges, and cooperate with Zhang Guifang to launch an attack from the other end of the Qi army camp. However, Lu Xiong's defense was impenetrable.

The effect of the raid was mediocre. It only burned down a few enemy tents, killed hundreds of soldiers, and created a little chaos, but had no impact on the overall situation.

The Han army fought for over ten days, and Qi's casualties totaled over fifty thousand. However, they were fighting within Xuzhou, and two hundred vassal states were able to provide a steady supply of soldiers from the Qi and Lu regions in the rear. Seventy-year-old men and ten-year-old children, armed with spears, rushed into battle. Ten of these soldiers were exchanged for one for the Han army. Deng Chanyu and Li Jing felt heartbroken. The always arrogant Li Jing felt a little embarrassed. Facing the Qi veterans, he felt like a rat pulling a tortoise, at a loss as to where to start.

The pride in his heart still made him ready to use military tactics to decide the outcome with his opponent, rather than just throwing out the Thirty-Three Days Golden Linglong Tower to kill the opponent.

Deng Chanyu did not express any opinion. With her ability, just like Jiang Ziya did to Lu Xiong, if she could not defeat him with military tactics, she could certainly use magic to decide the outcome. However, she never made a move because this was not her destiny.

Nezha, as well as Jinzha, Muzha and Huang Tianhua who defected to the Han Kingdom are still in danger. How can they escape if they don't fight for their lives on the battlefield?
That's what she thought, and the Western disciples across from her probably thought the same thing.

Now both sides are taking the opportunity to brush up the battlefield, brush up the honor, brush up the number of disasters. Both sides will escape the disaster together. Deng Chanyu doesn't know whether it is the Medicine Master or Maitreya who is secretly in charge of the situation on the opposite side. They have a tacit understanding. No one wants to end the current war and then face the Jiejiao Immortal.

In the next few days, the intensity of the fighting between the two sides was not high, but not low either.

Jinzha and Muzha fought against Benzhaitian together.

The fight between the two sides was neither too intense nor too fierce, with only occasional minor injuries that could be healed by taking a pill.

Huang Tianhua faced off against Qi general Yang Ren.

He had suffered a lot under Yang Ren's Indra's Eyes. These Indra's Eyes were full of the joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness of the world. Just being looked at once made him feel dizzy and his soul was shaken.

Fortunately, he was wearing Guangchengzi's Bagua Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe, so Yang Ren was unable to fully unleash the power of Indra's Eye, and he was able to barely block it.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, immortals against immortals, the Han and Qi states fought fiercely in Xuzhou.

Many Asuras who were saved from the sea of ​​blood died in the battle, and the Han Kingdom also suffered losses.

There is no way around it. It is impossible for no one to die in a war. For many mortals, showing their bravery and fearlessness on the battlefield and having their true spirits listed as gods after death is actually a shortcut.

Cruel? This was God's will. As long as Deng Chanyu couldn't defeat Hongjun, she had to obey his arrangements.

What she can do is to make the "roles" of the Han people more eye-catching, design the "costumes and props" more beautifully, and arrange the plot to show personal characteristics. No matter whether you are brave, decisive or resolute, she will try her best to give you the opportunity to "exit".

From the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, there is actually no difference between mortals and human immortals and earthly immortals; they are all ants.

It is possible that an immortal fails the exam while a mortal makes it. To get an offer from heaven, you need not only strength, but also a stage to express yourself.

Deng Chanyu racked her brains to arrange the "drama" on the front line, trying to give the extras more opportunities to perform.

These soldiers and generals who are loyal to the Deng family may continue to serve as her soldiers and generals when they go to heaven in the future.
Ordinary mortals must seize every opportunity to ascend to power. You can't compare to the Ma family. What contribution did the Ma family make in the Conferred Gods War? Not a single contribution at all. Yet, Jiang Ziya insisted on conferring a divine title on them, and Yuanshi Tianzun had no choice but to accept it.

Defeating the majority with the minority, waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out, and defeating a hundred with one, Deng Chanyu has arranged all kinds of plots.
