The deputy general scratched his head and asked in confusion, "Zhou Bo's reputation is not very good. Rumor has it that he is not only a greedy person but also a mean-spirited person. How can he become a general?"
"If you are greedy, you can participate in it and understand the situation. If the profits are divided properly, you can barely make people around you know when to stop. If you really stay out of the mud and don't get tainted, the logistics alone will be enough to kill Zhou Bo." Cheng Feixiao knew the situation in the Wu State very well and couldn't help but say a fair word for Zhou Bo.
"General, now that you put it like that, I don't think Zhou Bo will ever become a great general."
"Oh?"
"The Wu Kingdom is rotten to the core. How can it not lose this battle? If the Wu Kingdom loses, what is the point of Zhou Bo being a great general?"
"Hahahaha" Cheng Feixiao burst into laughter.
What the deputy general was thinking was actually what he was thinking in his heart, that the State of Wu would definitely not win this battle.
'Without those weird paper figures, I, Cheng Feixiao, can still win. It's a pity that the king has issued a strict order, and this time the reputation of Zheshantang will be in vain!'
........................
When they were about to arrive at the general's mausoleum, Fu Guixiang's mind drifted to the place where the two armies were confronting each other.
The confrontation cannot continue forever, and a war may break out at any time.
As a native of Wu, Fu Guixiang naturally hopes that his country can win.
But when he thought that the key to this battle was Zhou Bo, he couldn't help but feel depressed, thinking that the Wu Kingdom... might be over!
"If General Ma Guanyu were still alive, how could those scoundrels dare to attack so easily?"
Well, I must pay my respects when I arrive at the General's Mausoleum later.
As I was thinking, I suddenly heard panicked shouting from outside.
The Zhou family guards are all elite soldiers. What happened to make them so panicked?
Fu Guixiang's heart skipped a beat and he quickly pulled open the curtain of the carriage.
A skeleton general in armor sat on the hideous bone chariot, surrounded by hundreds of skeleton warriors riding white horses.
They came with great momentum and in the blink of an eye, they scattered the Zhou family guards.

The bone chariot knocked a big hole in the carriage, and a bone claw reached in and easily lifted the little girl onto its chariot.
"Candy!"
Fu Guixiang was in a hurry, but the little girl waved at him with a smile and said, "Uncle Fu, Tangtang will go with daddy first--"
what? !
After being stunned for a moment, Fu Guixiang hurriedly urged the coachman to chase after him.
Seeing that the coachman was hesitant and silent, he snatched the whip and wanted to drive after him.
Snapped!
With one whip, the horse galloped away, but...
"Wait, we're going in the wrong direction, run backwards, don't go forward!"
.......................
Since Li Mu led his personal guards to rush out of the General's Mausoleum, the battle between Wu and Shang had naturally broken out again.
"cough cough cough"
"What did they burn?"
"Don't breathe in the black smoke, don't breathe in the black smoke!"
As soon as the auspicious day and time calculated by Qian Chishi arrived, Cheng Feixiao started burning paper figures one by one without hesitation.
Taking advantage of the wind, billowing black smoke surged towards Wu Jun.
Anyone who inhales this black smoke will experience a coughing fit at best, or even total weakness and collapse to the ground at worst.
Hearing the shouts from the people around him, Zhang Sheng from the Vanguard Camp also held his breath in panic.
But the black smoke keeps coming out, how long can I hold my breath?
Soon, Zhang Sheng, with a red face, could no longer hold his breath and began to breathe heavily.
It's over, it's over!
Zhang Sheng's mind went blank, but after a long time, he found that he seemed to be fine?
After coming to his senses, Zhang Sheng discovered that the amulet in his arms had become burning hot.
When he thought of the elderly people at home, tears suddenly flowed out of his eyes.
No, I can't die here, I want to go home!
Turning around and no longer caring about the Wu-Shang battle, Zhang Sheng stepped over the crowd of people who had fallen to the ground and ran for his life.
......................
"General, can you give the order to attack?"
Frowning and watching the miserable state of Wu Jun, Cheng Feixiao hesitated for a moment before saying loudly: "Pass the order, all the troops follow me to attack!"
Upon hearing this, the deputy general was shocked. Although the black smoke had dissipated, if General Cheng rushed to the front at this time, what would happen if something happened?
Just as he was about to open his mouth to dissuade him, Cheng Feixiao's sharp gaze swept over him.
"This is the best time to fight. If I don't charge in front, the soldiers will definitely hesitate."
"No need to say more, give me the order immediately!"
Talking about this, if you dare to say more, you will be disobedient.
Horns blew, drums beat, and under the leadership of Cheng Feixiao, the Shang army mustered up their courage and charged forward.
"Form a formation to ward off the enemy, form a formation to ward off the enemy!"
Zhou Bo coughed while giving orders, but no one around responded after the orders were given.
"Ugh"
At this time, I was afraid that even the gods who came down to earth would be unable to save themselves. Zhou Bo looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.
But just when he decided that the defeat was irreversible, some miraculous changes suddenly occurred on the battlefield.
The blood seeped into the ground, and the formation set up by Lu Shenghua was finally activated.
The Wu soldiers who were chopped down by the Shang army like cutting vegetables and melons, all of their flesh and blood fell off, and they slowly stood up again!
Chapter 078 White Bone Relics
Skeletons of the dead kept rising on the battlefield. This was undoubtedly a very scary thing, and the morale of the merchant army was greatly affected.
But soon, everyone discovered that the skeletons that had crawled up were just standing there stupidly, without any further action.
"Lie down, you!"
A soldier bravely kicked the skeleton that had climbed up again in front of him, and the latter immediately fell to the ground.
"You scared me, just lie down!" The soldiers were naturally not afraid of the harmless skeleton. They started kicking him with laughter and curses.
"..."
Staring at the skeleton in front of him, Cheng Feixiao felt very uneasy.
After seeing the power of the paper man, he no longer had any disdain for those so-called "strange skills" in his heart, but only remained vigilant and fearful.
The resurrection of the skeletons by the Wu State was obviously a strange technique, so how could it be harmless to humans and animals?
Cheng Feixiao's worries soon came true. When General Bai Gu drove his chariot to the battlefield and issued combat orders, the revived skeletons immediately picked up the knives beside them and slashed at the Shang army.
"Stop that monster quickly!"
"Anyone who destroys his chariot or cuts off his head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!"
As soon as General White Bone appeared, the situation on the battle immediately reversed.
Cheng Feixiao saw that it was not good and immediately issued the most correct order at the moment.
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. On the battlefield, Shang troops kept rushing to kill General Bai Gu.
【Form a formation! 】
At the command, three hundred guards dismounted and formed a battle formation to resist the attack of the Shang army.
The strength of these 300 bone guards is far superior to those skeletons that were temporarily summoned. Although their number is small, the defensive formation they form is truly like an iron wall and remains unmoved no matter how hard people rush at them.
......................
At this moment, Li Mu paid more attention to Tangtang, who was sitting motionless next to him, than to the changes on the battlefield.
The "White Bone Yuanchen Sutra: Relics Chapter" taught by Lu Shenghua was directly told to her shortly after he was reunited with his daughter.
After listening to it, Tangtang suddenly became like a trance and didn’t move at all.
There should be no problem with the "White Bone Yuanchen Sutra: Relic Chapter". After all, Lu Shenghua still hopes that he can condense the white bone relics on the battlefield, and then enter his Netherworld White Bone Path to serve as some kind of protector.
But the little girl's current condition still makes Li Mu very worried.
Just as it hesitantly stretched out its hand to wake Tangtang up, a suction force suddenly emerged from the little girl's body.
After the Shang army hacked and killed the Wu army and was counterattacked by the army of bones, the murderous aura that permeated the entire battlefield had become extremely strong.
At this moment, all the murderous aura on the battlefield was rushing towards Tangtang who was in a trance.
This is a sign of condensing white bone relics. Li Mu can also use his identity as the White Bone General to initiate this prelude.
but......
Tangtang is a human being, not a skeleton general.
Just by entering a state of meditation, one can thoroughly understand the "White Bone Yuanchen Sutra·Relics Chapter" and even instinctively sense that the surrounding environment is suitable. Does it mean that one should condense white bone relics now?
After observing nervously for a while, Li Mu couldn't help but smile when he found that the shadow of the relic had faintly condensed above Tangtang's head.
Although it managed to hold on because of its lover's advice, it was really too tired.
Li Mu was not sure how long he could last just relying on the belief of protecting Tangtang.
Three years, five years, or ten to twenty years?
I don’t know, I really don’t know.
"Rather than guarding for an indefinite period of time, it would be better to let Tangtang have her own power, right?"
"External Appearance Method, White Bone Relics, now is the chance!"
......................
If the fallen Wu army could only turn into skeletons and get up to fight again, Cheng Feixiao felt that the battle could still be fought.
But now, not only the Wu army has fallen, but even the fallen soldiers of our own country will get up and join the army of bones. How can we fight this war?
The enemy's forces are getting larger and larger, while our forces are getting smaller and smaller. We can't fight any further!
"Mobilize elite troops to guard the rear, and all units will withdraw from the battlefield in an orderly manner."
The Shang army was not strong, but it had famous generals like Cheng Feixiao.
After making a calm judgment, he immediately ordered a retreat.
The horn of retreat sounded, and Li Mu also sighed slightly. It's not that he couldn't annihilate the Shang army here. In fact, this is impossible, because the formation of turning bones into an army has a time limit! If Cheng Feixiao fights to the death now, it won't be long before the army of bones will become a pile of broken bones.
The reason why it sighed was because Lu Shenghua had actually completely predicted Cheng Feixiao's reaction.
I remember what he said at that time: If the leader had not been Cheng Feixiao, and if he had been replaced by an incompetent person, the Shang Kingdom might have won a great victory this time.
"Look, General!"
The unwilling deputy general looked back frequently, and after observing for a long time, he discovered something strange.
“The first batch of skeletons that crawled up seemed to have cracks on their bodies.”
Ok?
Cheng Feixiao quickly turned around, and when he found that what he said was true, his brows immediately twisted into a "川" shape.
Couldn't that gang of skeletons exist for a long time?
But now the order to retreat has been given... Or maybe it's a trap, waiting for me to step into it.
