"Elder, our clansmen are being massacred. We can't hesitate any longer!"
The kneeling man's voice sounded like he was weeping blood. You You sat there, unable to regain his composure.
Dark clouds were rolling, and lightning snakes were swimming in the sky. A huge palace made of weird trees stood majestically. On the door, there were two huge words made of weird trees: Divine Palace!
A figure flashed by, and a woman in a black gauze dress appeared outside the palace gate. Her dress fluttered in the wind, and a few bolts of lightning flashed across the sky, making her graceful figure faintly discernible. She wore a garland of green branches and leaves on her head, making her look like a goddess.
She wore a long black gauze dress, and her body was graceful. Her skin was as white as snow, and she wore an emerald green garland. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and the lightning flashed, illuminating her peerless face. She stood there like an orchid, stunning everyone in this gloomy and gloomy world.
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and the woman's cold eyes pierced the sky. Her dress fluttered, and her whole body floated in the air. Suddenly, she shot through the rolling dark clouds like an arrow, disappearing into the clear sky through the broken window. The group of people at the bottom of the palace quickly followed her!
"Not bad!"
In the sky above a barren planet, Ying Wuman, who was floating in the air, opened his magical eyes and looked down. He couldn't see any clues from the hiding place of the army, so he nodded and praised.
He was accompanied by Zhe Chunqiu and twelve generals.
"Everything is ready except for the east wind. As long as we break in, we'll make sure that he never returns!" Ying Wuman looked up at the starry sky and sneered. Suddenly, he turned around and looked at everyone. After a moment of contemplation, he smiled and said, "Once the army of the netherworld falls into the net, we'll surround it and not attack. The main attack will be given to the new army of 100,000. I'd like to see how long the army of the netherworld can last under the attack of my new army!"
Immediately, a general cupped his hands and said, "Marquis, we can't delay the surprise attack. Niu Youde is famous for being a good fighter, and he can't be underestimated. We should act according to the plan. Once he falls into the net, we'll immediately work together to eliminate him, so as to avoid unnecessary casualties and damage our morale. We can also avoid giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.
Ying Wuman immediately stared at him coldly. That stare made the Great General feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Even Zhe Chunqiu stared at him with an unfriendly gaze. The other generals were observing silently.
However, Zhe Chunqiu then took out a Star Bell. It was unknown where the news came from.
A colleague hurriedly transmitted his voice to the general, "Are you stupid? The Army of the Netherworld was known as the number one army in the world at that level. In addition to Niu Youde's brilliant military exploits, he was known as the Tiger General. If they were annihilated by Marquis Ying's new army, the Ying family's resume would be filled with another glorious stroke of glory. In short, regardless of whether it was a joint attack or the first attack of the new army, how could they possibly snatch the credit from him? No matter how the new army fought, in the end, it was still up to them to report whatever they wanted. Haven't you heard about the grudge between Niu Youde and the Ying Family? This time, they were here to avenge their humiliation. A dignified Marquis had personally come to supervise the battle, so they had to bring something conspicuous back. Otherwise, would they have the face to show off five million against one hundred thousand? If you do good for others, they might not appreciate it. Whatever they say, we should just do it. What good is it for us to go against them? By saying this in public, weren't you clearly implying that they didn't know how to command an army in battle? Do you still want to stay in the eastern army? "
Under the urgent reminder, the general realized that he had committed a taboo. Immediately, a look of realization appeared on his face. He repeatedly nodded at Ying Wuman and said, "Marquis is wise. It was I who didn't think it through." He broke out in a cold sweat.
Ying Wuman ignored him. His gaze finally moved away from the general's face and looked at Zhe Chunqiu. "Ask You You about the progress." In the end, he noticed that Zhe Chunqiu, who was holding the Star Bell, had a strange expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhe Chunqiu gulped and said with a panicked expression, "Marquis, the shopkeeper of the black market is asking for help!"
Ying Wuman frowned. "Which black market? You're still in the mood to talk to me about this at a time like this? Let the people nearby handle it. "
Zhe Chunqiu said with a bitter face, "Marquis, it's the black market here. Niu Youde's army of a hundred thousand is currently attacking in a frenzy. Regardless of whether they're male or female, old or young, they're capturing anyone they see, robbing anyone they see, killing anyone they see who tries to escape. They've set up countless fires and are currently bathing the entire planet in blood. The situation over there is too horrible to look at. Almost all the workers in the shops have been killed. The shopkeeper is heavily injured and has gone into hiding. The army is quickly searching for him, but he probably won't be able to hide for long. You're the closest person!
Soon, the scouts sent by the army here also reported back similar military intelligence.
"What is that madman trying to do?" The group of generals was in an uproar.
"…" Ying Wuman was stunned. Didn't they come here to save him? Why did they attack the black market instead of saving him? "Why did Niu Youde attack the black market?" he asked.
Zhe Chunqiu shook his head and said, "I don't know. The shopkeeper heard the slogan 'Exterminate the bandits'!"
"Exterminate the bandits?" Ying Wuman was instantly enraged and shouted, "Where did these bandits come from? They're ruining my plans!" He immediately came up with a conspiracy theory in his mind. He suspected that some other force had interfered.
Zhe Chunqiu frowned and said, "I don't know. The shopkeeper doesn't know what's going on either. The army of the netherworld suddenly attacked."
Another general said, "Marquis, perhaps exterminating the bandits is just an excuse. Niu Youde might already know that we're going to deal with him. He's avoiding the strong points and attacking the weak points!"
With this reminder, Ying Wuman suddenly came to his senses. He looked down at the place where the troops were lying in ambush and was instantly speechless.
Why did they find a remote and suitable place to attack? It was to avoid giving the enemy a handle. If they could attack at will, why would they come here? The eastern army would have already sent the army to the netherworld to kill Niu Youde. Why would they need to spend so much effort to set up this trap?
Their original intention was to not find any excuses. As long as Niu Youde fell into the trap, they would immediately kill him. Then, they could blame it on Niu Youde. They could say that Niu Youde initiated the attack and they were forced to retaliate. Anyway, the dead couldn't explain themselves. Niu Youde had used the same excuse on Chu Zishan in the Youding region. He said that Chu Zishan attacked first and was forced to retaliate.
What should they do now? Should they pull their men over to attack? There were many eyes and ears over there. If they saw you taking the initiative to attack, how would they explain it? Should they say that Niu Youde killed the people in the Ying family's black market shop? They couldn't bring the matter of the black market shop out in the open. There was no way they could take revenge for such a thing.
Even if they braced themselves and attacked now, it wouldn't be effective. If they didn't fight, it wouldn't be easy to catch Niu Youde if he wanted to escape.
How could it be like this? Ying Wuman was a little confused. The Ying family's plan couldn't be said to be bad. They had keenly captured You You and her son and set up an ingenious trap. They used the mother and son's weakness to deceive everyone. They should have been able to fool the eyes of most of the powers. Their plan had obviously succeeded. They had really lured Niu Youde here with a large number of men. They were just waiting for Niu Youde to settle the score with You You and then lure Niu Youde into the trap. Who would have thought that Niu Youde would suddenly lead his men to attack the black market? Weren't you here to save people?
Who would have thought that Niu Youde wouldn't play with you at all? You set up a trap here, but Niu Youde ran to the other side to kill the bandits. They couldn't even play together.
Weren't you here to save people? How did it turn into killing bandits? Ying Wuman couldn't figure out how a good game turned out like this. What should he do next?
When he looked up and saw the generals in front of him, Ying Wuman hurriedly asked, "What do you think the next step should be?" He hoped to get some favorable suggestions.
The group of generals was hesitant. Everyone could see that the plan had gone awry. Some of them had some ideas, but if their ideas didn't succeed, they might have to take the blame for the Marquis. The example of the previous general was still fresh in their minds. The Marquis had climbed up too smoothly. He had no combat experience at all. He could win, but he couldn't afford to lose. He came here with the intention of winning. No one was willing to look for trouble for no reason. The law couldn't punish the masses. So they all looked pensive and no one said a word.
A bunch of trash! Ying Wuman didn't dare to say it out loud. He cursed in his heart.
There was one thing he knew. It wasn't a good thing to offend this group of generals at this time.
"What? They didn't fall into the trap? They're killing bandits? They're attacking the black market? "
On the riverbank, Heavenly King Ying, who was holding a fishing rod, asked the Prime Minister in astonishment.
Zuo 'er nodded with a solemn expression. "That's what the Marquis reported."
Ying Jiuguang asked in a low voice, "How should the army deal with it?"
Zuo 'er hesitated for a moment and replied, "The Marquis is waiting for Your Highness's reply."
Splash! The fishing rod in Ying Jiuguang's hand fell into the water. He suddenly stood up and glared angrily. "The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. The general who is commanding the army outside should observe the enemy's situation and adapt to the situation. He knows the situation better than me. The opportunity is fleeting. As the commander of the army, he should be decisive. Doesn't he know the purpose of this battle? He's actually waiting for my reply. Niu Youde is fighting fiercely, and he's just watching from the side? Why do you want him to go? What are the generals under him doing? They're all people who have been commanding the army for many years. Can't they even come up with a decent idea? "
Zuo 'er sighed in his heart. You shouldn't have wanted the Ying family to avenge the Ying family. You shouldn't have wanted to accumulate credit and prestige for the Marquis. It's not appropriate to send an outsider to command a group of experts. The Marquis grew up in such an environment. He's more suitable to study in the court and control the overall situation. He's not suitable to command the army.
"The Marquis's prestige is quite high. Perhaps the generals are waiting to see." Zuo 'er tried to remind him. In fact, she wanted to say this before. However, she thought that the plan had been arranged properly. It was purely a matter of collecting credit. Ying Wuman had volunteered himself, and she couldn't afford to offend him.
