Chapter 506: What are you waiting for? Soul-Infiltrating Incense, War Starts

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…………

300 meters east of the Zhongyang camp, a golden square banner fluttered in the cold wind. The banner was one zhang five long and half a zhang wide, made of golden Xia brocade.

Although it was dark, there was firelight reflecting from below, and the details of the Kui pattern on the golden flag surface were clearly visible. The large black "Mu" character in the center of the flag was even more overflowing with light, dazzling and extraordinary. Even from hundreds of meters away, it could be seen clearly.

The banner stood on the top of a wooden watchtower more than 30 meters high. Below the flag surface, there was a small platform. Five soldiers in yellow armor stood on the platform, staring wide-eyed, staring at the four directions of east, west, north, south, and the sky.

The lower part of the watchtower was actually a wooden shed 15 meters long. The top of the shed left a smoke exhaust port, and rolling thick smoke was dissipating from it.

There was firelight in the thick smoke. From the high-frequency shaking of the firelight, it could be seen that there must be people moving in the wooden shed.

Surrounding the wooden shed, ten square black military tents, each fifty meters long, were arranged in a circle. The surface of the tents was pitch-black, making it impossible for the naked eye to see the situation inside; one could only judge from the intense firelight leaking from the tent door on the west side and the chatting and laughter of the soldiers inside that the number of people was not small.

Creak…………

The wooden shed door in the middle was suddenly pushed open by a soldier from inside. A gray-bearded old man in black armor walked out first, followed by more than ten people, dressed in black, silver, gold, yellow, and red armor respectively.

Although the colors of the armor on everyone were different, the styles were exactly the same, including helmets, shoulder guards, front guards, rear guards, knee guards, upper arms, lower arms, etc. It was clear at a glance that it was the Great Xia's standard military armor.

"Governor, there are still three hours before dawn, is it about time?"

Seeing his father Mu Longhe looking up at the sky, Mu Qinghe thought he was estimating the time and immediately leaned forward to say a word.

"Can't I see the time? Do I need you to talk too much?"

Mu Longhe turned his head and glared at his son, then said to everyone in a deep voice: "Attacking cities and pulling out strongholds is not easy. The Si Zheng only gave me 10,000 troops. Without full confidence, we cannot move randomly. Let's wait a little longer..."

The generals standing behind heard this, and their brows were slightly puzzled.

The 6th battalion great general Xia Houcen couldn't help but bow and open his mouth: "Governor, ten divine machine crossbows, three elite numbered armies, plus golden body pills, cultivation, pills, weapons, armor are all superior to the enemy army, and there are only two Xianyang experts, Yang Qin and Yang Ping, in the Zhongyang camp. Whether it is strength or quantity, they are not as good as our army, not to mention that we have insiders, why drag it until now?"

Although Xia Houcen has 56-mane strength, he is only Yuhan-level cultivation after all. Theoretically, he is not qualified to talk to Mu Longhe like this, but he is the son of Xia Houzhang, and he holds the two positions of Chiyang Army Commander and the 6th battalion great general of the Jin Yang coalition army, so among the group, only he dared to question.

Mu Qinghe had already been glared at by his father, so he naturally didn't dare to speak again.

However, hearing Xia Houcen's questioning, like others, he looked at Mu Longhe with a confused face, wanting to know why his father delayed the attack.

Being questioned by subordinates, Mu Longhe naturally had a slightly heavy expression, but seeing all the generals looking at him with confusion, he still spoke slowly.

"Xia people's lives are expensive!"

He opened his mouth lightly and said only four words, but Mu Qinghe, Xia Houcen, and other generals heard this, their bodies vibrated slightly, and the confusion on their faces disappeared instantly, replaced by a trace of shame.

Mu Longhe saw the shame on everyone's faces and knew that they had all listened to his words. A trace of relief appeared in his eyes, as if he was in the mood to talk. He continued to explain in a deep voice: "You must know that once a great war starts, it is difficult to recover. What if you occupy the advantage? The trench at the entrance of the camp and the 2,000 troops on the southwest mountain road are enough to prove that Yang Qin and Yang Ping are not straw bags. Who knows if they have hidden any other powerful means?

When the Si Zheng ordered me to lead 10,000 troops west, he explained that Xia people's lives are expensive, and a miserable victory is not a victory. How can this governor be a child's play..."

Speaking of this, he paused slightly and continued: "Besides, I naturally don't fear the 10,000 troops in the Zhongyang camp, but Lu Shou Zheng said earlier that the Earth-Digging Realm experts in the two camps of Zhongyang and Linya add up to at least 60,000-odd. Beishuo wants to defend Zhongyang to the death, and these 60,000-odd people must have been organized. If you fight in blindly, your opponents will not only be that 10,000 garrison!"

Everyone heard this, and their expressions suddenly became a bit solemn.

"In this way, the Governor is waiting for..."

This time it was Mu Qinghe who couldn't hold back. In public, he naturally had to address him by his position. He was really curious about what his father was waiting for.

"It's here!"

However, before he finished asking, he was interrupted by Mu Longhe.

Mu Longhe clearly noticed something, suddenly turned his head, looked at the sky on the southeast side, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes.

Everyone else also hurriedly looked in the direction of his eyes.

A figure flew quickly from the sky on the southeast side and flew straight to the sky above the main camp tent. The soldiers on duty around the main tent saw someone approaching, and their expressions immediately became murderous, and there were even many sounds of divine machine crossbows being sacrificed on both sides, which was clearly someone sacrificing divine machine crossbows.

"Our own people, don't panic!"

At Mu Longhe's order, the expressions of everyone around relaxed.

"Lord Xiao!"

"Why did Lord Xiao come?"

"It's Lord Xiao."

…………

"Xiao came late, Governor, please forgive me!"

The person who came was none other than Xiao Kangcheng, the former commander of the Xiaoshan Army.

Xiao Kangcheng fell directly in front of everyone, signaled to the others, and then bowed to Mu Longhe with a smile.

"Lord Xiao finally arrived. If you didn't come, I could wait, but they were almost forcing me to order an attack..."

Xiao Kangcheng was stunned upon hearing this, then looked at the generals including Mu Qinghe and Xia Houcen behind him, and immediately smiled and opened his mouth: "It seems that the generals are all eager to fight! Don't worry, let me scout first!"

After joking, his expression suddenly became solemn, and then he turned his head to look at the direction of the Zhongyang camp, raised his hands, and dozens of cyan gas threads emitting light suddenly emanated from his hands out of thin air.

Those cyan gas threads kept moving in his palms, as if they wanted to get rid of control but couldn't run out. Finally, after trying several times, they began to hit different directions.

There are 36 spiritual lights in total, 33 of which are breaking through to the east and south areas; only 3 breaths are rushing to the west side.

At this moment, the west side of everyone is the Zhongyang camp.

"3, this Beishuo really hid a hand!" ===== CHAPTER 507 =====
