Five-Element Dao technique, Flag Door Escape.
That was Hong Jin's specialty mystical ability. It was an escape technique in a small area. Wherever he inserted the flag, he could escape like a shadow.
Huang Tianhua was not paying attention. Hong Jin's surroundings were already filled with Five-Element Escape Flags. Hong Jin's figure drifted erratically and appeared everywhere around Huang Tianhua. He raised his hand and scattered mystical abilities.
In an instant, immortal light flickered and stars fell. Huang Tianhua's figure was buried by immortal light.
As the saying went, the experts watched the process, while the laymen watched the show.
When the mortal generals saw that, they broke out in cold sweat for Huang Tianhua. They only knew that Hong Jin's Dharma powers were profound and his mystical abilities were vast.
However, the corner of Yang Jian's mouth twitched, and a cold smile appeared on his face …
Xiao Lan finally took the initiative to speak. She stepped on the chariot chair and looked at the battle situation. She asked softly, "Is this Hong Jin very powerful?"
"He only has an undeserved reputation." Yang Jian yawned. He had been filled with grievances by Sister Long Ji. At that moment, he felt a little tired.
Xiao Lan was puzzled. "I think this person's escape technique is extraordinary. Why is it just an appearance?"
Yang Jian could not even be bothered to stand up. He smiled and said, "Look carefully. Has Tianhua suffered any injuries from his current position?"
Xiao Lan focused her gaze. Although her cultivation level was limited and she could not see clearly, she could see Huang Tianhua riding the Jade Qilin and standing in Hong Jin's Five-Element Escape Array. He looked calm and seemed to be thinking about a way to break the array.
Apart from his clothes being messy, he did not seem to be in a sorry state.
"Could it be that this Hong Jin only knows escape techniques? It doesn't hurt to hit people. "
Yang Jian smiled and said, "His way of cultivating is not bad. He's focused on studying the Great Dao. His mystical abilities and Dharma spells are enough to protect his life."
If not for the fact that Yang Jian's smile was a little mischievous, Xiao Lan would have almost believed his words.
On the other side, Huang Tianhua remembered Yang Jian's arrangements last night. He wanted to take Hong Jin down or seriously injure him. He kept thinking of a way to break Hong Jin's Five-Element Escape Technique.
Nezha could not hold it in any longer. He stepped on the Wind-Fire Wheels and rose into the sky, looking like he wanted to charge into the battle formation to snatch credit.
Huang Tianhua snorted. Mo Xie's Treasure Sword Light shone brightly!
The sword moved like a swimming dragon, graceful and graceful!
Huang Tianhua's silhouette swayed gently as the Jade Qilin spewed out a puff of white gas. Dozens of Sword Light blossomed on Mo Xie's sword like a lotus in midsummer.
The Flags of Five Elements that Hong Jin had painstakingly set up were pierced by the Sword Light almost at the same time!
In just a short moment, Hong Jin fell out of a flag and immediately tried to escape to the left and right. He had already formed half a hand seal.
Huang Tianhua made a strange move. He suddenly shook his head, and his long hair danced in the wind. A cold light flashed through his hair!
Hong Jin let out a muffled groan as his body trembled violently. He lowered his head to look at his shoulder, only to see that there was a bloody hole for some unknown reason … With his cultivation base, even the Heart Piercing Nail could not be detected by his divine sense.
Huang Tianhua raised his sword and charged forward. Hong Jin endured the severe pain and hurriedly formed a spell. His figure disappeared with a bang, leaving only a Five Elements Escape Flag and a few bloodstains on the ground.
"You only know how to run?!"
Huang Tianhua cursed angrily. Hong Jin appeared in front of the Shang army but did not stop at all. In a flash, he disappeared into the army formation.
"Hmph! I'm tired. I'll let you win for now. Let me rest for a while before we fight again! "
Hong Jin sat on the horse's back and replied. His armor was bright. He had used a camouflage technique on his wound when he used his escape technique.
In reality, it was extremely painful.
"Shengong … Shen?"
Hong Jin's eyes widened. He looked to his side, but Shen Gongbao had disappeared!
At that moment, Hong Jin had the illusion that he had been tricked. His entire Dao heart was dark. Fortunately, he immediately heard Shen Gongbao's voice transmission.
"Stabilize the army first. I'll go get reinforcements. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to stop Yang Jian and the rest with just our strength."
Hong Jin really believed him. He even heaved a sigh of relief as he saw the dawn of victory …
In the Zhou army, Yang Jian's voice floated over. "If it's just a battle between cultivators, it won't be able to showcase the strength of the soldiers of the two armies. Why don't we let the generals who really lead the troops fight in front of the formation to uphold the name of loyalty and bravery!"
Hong Jin was overjoyed when he heard that. He suddenly felt that Yang Jian was like his confidant. He was lacking cultivators on his side, so he suggested letting the mortal generals fight.
"Which general will go forward to challenge us?"
"I'll go!"
A burly man replied and charged forward on his horse. He went to the front of the formation to report his name and position. There was also a corresponding general in the Zhou army. The two of them immediately fought.
The mortal generals were competing in martial arts, arm strength, and horsemanship. Their blades were dyed red with blood, and their heads were severed. It was several times more dangerous than the battle between ordinary cultivators.
On the Zhou army's side, many mortal generals were about to go crazy. They finally had a chance to make a name for themselves. All of them lined up and advanced. They would not have the face to escape if they lost.
However, Yang Jian had ordered them to retreat immediately if they were no match for him. There was no need for them to die there.
The Shang army did not lack mortal generals. There were also "famous generals" like Zhang Shan and Li Jin holding the line. Both sides fought, and there were victories and defeats.
The sun was gradually setting in the west when Yang Jian suddenly waved his palm towards the ground. A gust of Celestial Qi escaped from the earth and finally wrapped itself around Hong Jin's body without a sound.
Hong Jin did not notice it at all. He only watched the battle in front of him.
Yang Jian had sealed Hong Jin's spiritual senses. If Hong Jin used his spiritual senses to look around, he would only feel that his surroundings were white …
However, Hong Jin sat firmly on Mount Tai and did not have any intention of using his spiritual senses. This made Yang Jian feel that he had overestimated Hong Jin's intelligence …
At the Azure Dragon Pass, another 500,000 troops came out of the pass. They were majestic and looked like dark clouds.
The troops stopped fighting, and the soldiers did not make any noise.
There were a few immortals from Jie School in the Shang army. The immortals did not seem to notice anything unusual. Perhaps even if they did, they would not feel that there was anything strange about it.
The Shang army was originally close to a million. The Zhou army had 300,000 troops and then 500,000 troops. They were still at a disadvantage in terms of troops. That should not be a big deal.
However …
The smile on Yang Jian's lips grew wider.
As the planner of this tactic, Xiao Lan was a little nervous. She kept using her spiritual senses to observe the advancement of the army and the various battle formations.
The battle between the generals continued on and off until dusk.
The soldiers on both sides shouted until their throats were hoarse. The generals of both sides also took turns to go into battle. A total of seven to eight generals were injured or killed. Three of them even entered the God roll.
The generals of the Zhou army won more than they lost. The morale of the Shang army did not seem to be affected.
Hong Jin shouted, "It's already late. Why don't we fight tomorrow!"
Yang Jian did not answer. He raised his hand and sounded the gong to retreat.
Hong Jin was overjoyed when he saw that. He secretly felt that he had won against Yang Jian. He also ordered the soldiers to return to camp and fight the Zhou army tomorrow.
He looked at the scene of the two armies retreating.
The Zhou army was strict. When they sounded the gong to retreat, the rear army became the front army. The military formation was not chaotic at all, and their footsteps were rather orderly.
Although there were many Shang troops, nearly half of them were veterans of the Shang army who had been defeated by the Zhou army. Nearly half of them were transferred from tens of thousands of places. With the sound of the gong, the military formation immediately scattered like sand and gathered towards the military camp.
The flag fell and sighs filled the air.
Only the main army that Hong Jin was in could be considered to have a sense of propriety. The other troops could not bear to look at it.
Yang Jian scanned with his spiritual senses and thought that he had seen a large flock of sheep marching on the plains. He rushed back to the "sheep pen" that was as winding as the Great Wall.
The sky was dark and the night was moonless. The Zhou army did not light any torches, but there was a faint light around the soldiers. It was a simple array formation engraved on their armor.
That was Xiao Lan's suggestion. It could not only save the effort of raising the torch, but it was also better hidden in the night. It was not to the extent that one could see rows of torches from a few kilometers away.
More importantly, when attacking at night, the soldiers could still recognize people by their armor. If there was no phosphorescence array on their armor, they could kill them!
"Stop!"
Yang Jian sent a voice transmission and waved the flag.
"Charge back and rob the Shang camp."
The 300,000 Zhou troops waved their flags at the same time. The retreating army suddenly stopped. The front army became the rear army again, and the rear army became the front army. They began to march towards the Shang army camp that was less than 15 kilometers away.
The cultivators cast spells and blew the west wind to save the Zhou army's stamina.
Behind the 300,000 Zhou troops, a large number of troops followed. The 800,000 soldiers were divided into 30 formations and attacked the Shang army camp!
The Shang army's scouts discovered that something was amiss and wanted to return to the camp to report. However, the camp was blocked by the soldiers who had just returned. The gate was completely blocked. They could not find a place to stay even if they climbed over the camp walls.
With such a delay, the Zhou army rushed less than five kilometers west of the Shang camp. Only then did the Shang army wake up.
"The Zhou army is charging over!"
"Quickly reorganize the army! Reorganize the army! "
"Don't be afraid. We have many people!"
There were indeed many Shang soldiers, but the more people there were, the more chaotic it was. Some hurriedly rushed towards the military camp, while others listened to the order to rush out of the gate. There were so many of them that they blocked the west side of the military camp. It was extremely chaotic …
Half of the Shang army had already taken off their armor and rested. The soldiers had already buried their pots to cook.
When the Zhou army's vanguard attacked, the fragrance of rice wafted everywhere in the Shang army. However, there were confused soldiers everywhere.
The soldiers did not know the general, and the general did not trust the soldiers.
Only the 100,000 Shang soldiers barely set up defensive formations everywhere. However, they were instantly scattered by the Zhou army with high morale …
This battle lasted from nightfall until dawn.
No one expected the Zhou army to launch a surprise attack at night while the Shang army returned to the camp, causing the chaotic Shang army to be unable to retaliate.
No one expected that the Zhou army, which originally only had 300,000 troops, would become 800,000 when they returned. They robbed the camp of a million Shang soldiers and did not miss a single camp.
The Shang army only lasted for four hours before it collapsed. The Shang army, which was used to fleeing, quickly collapsed and retreated hundreds of kilometers.
The Zhou army attacked from behind. Tonight, Yang Jian still gave the order to kill.
Wei Hu led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to chase after them. The soldiers put on the uniforms of the Shang army and finally successfully mixed into the fleeing Shang army and headed towards the Si River Pass.
In this battle, the Zhou army suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties. Most of them were injured, and not many died.
The Shang army suffered more than 300,000 casualties, and more than 100,000 surrendered. Half of the Shang army fled in all directions. A small number escaped into the forest, and most of them headed towards the Si River Pass.
The 600,000 troops of the Zhou army chased after them from behind. After a day and night, they chased outside the Si River Pass. When the garrison general of the Si River Pass was smug and wanted to use the army that had retreated from the frontline to defend the Si River Pass and take the opportunity to make contributions, the Zhou army did not stop and charged straight at the pass.
Tens of thousands of Zhou troops suddenly appeared in the city. They quickly attacked the city walls and city gates and broke open the city gates.
The 600,000 Zhou troops charged in. Wei Hu, Nezha, and Huang Tianhua took the lead. Most of the Shang army at the Si River Pass were deserters who had just been defeated. How could they be willing to fight?
After fleeing, they were still fleeing.
Fortunately, the Zhou army began to reinforce the city walls after taking down the Si River Pass and did not move again. Otherwise, with the deserters of the Shang army, they might be able to charge into the pass …
"Let the soldiers rest well. Bury the dead and recuperate."
Yang Jian stood on the city wall of the Si River Pass and looked at the fire in the city. He said, "Please send another 500,000 reinforcements, Your Majesty. The garrison troops in Azure Dragon Pass will not move. After the wounded recover, they will join the garrison and protect the rear food route."
The generals behind him agreed.
Yang Jian waved his hand. "Today, we will rest and celebrate tomorrow."
