Because there was a problem with the rescue airship, the base below also seemed to have become unsafe. Cao Du immediately had the vice commander lead people down to investigate.
After waiting for almost two summer periods, the vice commander reported, "General. We have already taken over the base below, and after inspection, there are no enemies mixed in. "
Cao Du said, "Then what is the matter with the rescue airship?"
The vice commander said, "The airship exploded in the Xuan Armament, and we also do not know the specific reason. We speculate that the other party should have used an ability or skill we have never seen before to infiltrate the airship."
After a pause, he added, "Right now, we can confirm that there was no problem when the airship left the base, but there was an oversight when it rose into the air."
Cao Du thought seriously for a moment and agreed with this judgment. If the problem was inside the base, Frost Continent would definitely not just focus on a single airship, but rather carry out greater destruction. The current situation instead showed that this method had great limitations and could not be used normally.
He said, "Order everyone to be on high alert. This kind of thing must not happen again."
The vice commander sternly complied.
Cao Du turned around and said to the military academies in the main cabin, "Have the army stop in batches and wait for the rear army."
All of the military academies here responded with a roar.
A short while later, as beams of light rose above the surface military base, the metal plate at the top also began to slowly open, revealing a spacious space inside. Under the guidance of the beams of light, the large fleet began to descend in batches.
At this moment, several dozen li away, high in the sky, there was a patrol airship from Frost Continent. It was no more than two zhang long, and the body of the airship was completely hidden in the atmosphere.
A Frost Continent soldier stood in the main cabin, carefully watching the movements ahead. At this moment, his expression was abnormally serious. From time to time, there would be a patrol airship from Green Sun flying past. He knew that the longer he stayed, the greater the possibility of being discovered, and he might not even be able to return.
After watching for a while, he used a calm voice to say to the subordinate beside him, "Have the airships in the back send a message to the province. The Green Sun army has arrived. There are at least ten thousand airships, and at least three thousand warship airships."
Three thousand Warring Flying Boats. This was an extremely terrifying number because each flying boat carried at least one Profound Weapon. Even though it was impossible for all of them to be on the same level as the "Elephant Prison", it was still enough to flatten the entire Mi Province.
A soldier received his order and immediately came to the side of the crystal jade. He pressed his hand on it and transmitted a message to the rear with his mind.
This was one of the few areas in which they were better than Qingyang. They could transmit accurate and complicated messages to the rear using their minds, instead of using the incomplete Mangguang to transmit messages.
Another soldier looked at the fleet that was hovering in the sky, almost blocking out the sun. He couldn't help but feel nervous. He said with a trembling voice, "Hundred Lords, can we win this time?"
The soldier glanced at him and didn't reprimand him. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "We have no way out. Qingyang won't let us go. However, even if our bodies are destroyed, as long as the Smelting Pool is still there, we can still create a new body inside. Only, you have to make enough contributions. The higher-ups will consider letting you resurrect earlier."
When the soldier heard this, he touched a piece of blue crystal jade on his chest. His tense mind relaxed a little.
The soldier who previously reported said at this time, "Hundred Lords, we have already sent the message back."
The soldier made a prompt decision and said, "Retreat!"
The airship immediately turned around and flew to the rear. However, it was hidden and motionless, so it was still fine. At this moment, it appeared and was immediately exposed. Patrol airships in the surroundings immediately followed and attacked it without mercy.
This airship managed to dodge a few times before finally failing to escape. It was hit by an arrow-shaped ray and exploded on the spot.
The patrol airships in the surroundings paused for a while. Only after confirming that no one survived did they disperse.
At this moment, Zhang Yu had already entered the military encampment and was arranged to stay in a spacious and independent fortress. This place was divided into three levels and there were metal cabins that connected to all directions. This place could accommodate several thousand people and was enough to withstand the bombardment of Xuan Soldiers.
After he arrived, he did a quick inspection. Seeing that there were no problems, he ordered the cultivators beside him to summon all the cultivators from the fourth chapter.
A while later, everyone arrived. He said, "This time, we will be staying here for ten days to half a month. I've already said this before, but right now, I still have to remind everyone to guard their minds and be careful of Nightmares."
Based on the current point of view, it was because of the contamination of Nightmares and Parasites that the people of Frost Province had all become aliens.
Parasites posed a great threat to ordinary people, while Nightmares were formless and intangible. They were the easiest to infect creatures with spiritual energy. Cultivators with Heart Light and Fa Li were among their targets.
Frost Province could be seen as the main base of these two things. Therefore, when attacking this place, the greatest threat they had to face was not the military power of Frost Province, but the Parasite Nightmares.
As for how to deal with them, ordinary people could only take pills every day and undergo a certain examination to overcome them. Cultivators needed to cultivate the secret technique passed down by Xuanting to constantly stabilize their minds.
He was not worried about the cultivators from outside the realm. These people had gone through countless trials of life and death. Each of them had a tough mind. However, the cultivators from inside the realm were the most worthy of attention.
Daoist Wan Ming said, "Don't worry, Xuanzheng. My friends and I will supervise everyone at all times to cultivate a defensive technique. We will not give the Nightmares any opportunities."
After giving his orders, Zhang Yu arranged some patrol matters. Then, he let everyone go. He entered an inner room to cultivate and adjust his mind and body.
In the next few days, flying ships continued to transport more soldiers and supplies from the rear. They also continued to reinforce the military base between the camp and Green Sun to ensure that the retreat route was not lost.
During this time, the military constantly sent out scouts to Frost Province to investigate. However, they did not make any sudden attacks or disturbances.
On this day, Zhang Yu was floating in the air above the wasteland, staring in the direction of Mi Province. Shi Yue and Wen Liang stood behind him.
In the hundreds of miles ahead, there were many cultivators flying and patrolling there. Occasionally, they would fight with some of the hidden sentries of Frost Province.
At this time, a cultivator flew over. He cupped his hands and reported to him, "Xuanzheng, General Cao invites you."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Understood."
He left this place to Wen and Shi, and returned to the encampment. Under the guidance of a group of soldiers who were waiting here, he went all the way to the main camp.
There was a huge square in front of the camp. At this moment, there were more than ten thousand armored soldiers standing in hundreds of military formations.
He passed by the sentries in front of the door and finally entered a tall hall at the highest point. The space here was vast. There was a long conference table in the middle. Cao Du was sitting on the main seat. There were also rows of military academies sitting on the left and right. When they saw him come in, they all stood up in unison.
Cao Du also stood up and personally walked over to welcome him. After greeting him, he said, "Xuanzheng, come and sit here." He beckoned Zhang Yu over to an exquisite guest room at the side.
Once the two of them left, the military academies returned to their seats with a swoosh. However, even though Cao Du was not around, everyone sat with their backs straight and their gazes fixed straight ahead.
Although it was underground, there was a light source. The light outside the guest room was very bright. It shone through the glass wall like the warm sun outside. Coupled with the various plants and flowers around, it almost made people feel like they were in a garden.
There was a short sandalwood table on the couch in the room. There was a purple copper incense burner in the corner. There were beautiful cushions on the left and right of the table. The two of them each said "please" and sat down opposite each other.
After Cao Du had someone serve fragrant tea, he said, "Xuanzheng, I will be sending out troops tomorrow. According to our insider information, Shuang Zhou will be intercepted.
At that time, they will use some modified cultivators and some EsGods who are under their control. They will also have a large number of creations. In order to ensure that the first round of attacks goes smoothly, they will need the protection of Xuanxiu under Xuanzheng's command. "
Insider?
Zhang Yu's mind moved. From his previous contact with the Shuang Continent, because the Shuang Continent was filled with different species, and there seemed to be a method to check one's mind, the internal control was extremely tight, so Qing Yang rarely obtained information about the Shuang Continent.
Now, it seemed that some people also saw that Shuang Zhou was about to sink, so they could not help but want to jump ship. However, would Qingyang accept these aliens so easily?
Or was there something special about these people?
After thinking about it, he replied seriously, "At that time, I will lead the cultivators to protect you and do my best to block the mysterious power from Shuang Zhou to ensure that your side's advance goes smoothly."
Cao Du nodded and bowed respectfully. "Thank you, Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu raised his hand in his sleeve and bowed.
Cao Du came down to discuss some general matters of cooperation with him. After about fifteen minutes of discussion, all the matters were settled.
Then he apologized, tidied up his military uniform, and walked to the center of the hall. Looking at everyone, he saluted and said, "Tomorrow's battle, I'll leave it to you!"
All the military academies present stood up in unison and roared, "Victory to Green Sun! Long live Tianxia! "
Following this voice, the armored soldiers in the square also shouted, "Long live the Qingyang Empire! Long live Tianxia! "
And after that, from the surrounding military forts, there was a wave of responses like a tsunami, reverberating back and forth for a long time.
The next day, at dawn, the Wasteland was originally silent. However, as a golden light broke through the grayish-blue sky, a rumbling sound came from the ground.
Tens of thousands of flying boats rose into the sky in the golden light behind them. Behind them was a vast and endless world and a slowly rising sun.
The general attack on Shuang Zhou had begun.
