Chapter 766: Because It Looks Good

The Qingming heavy-armored warriors pushed forward house by house, steadily and firmly expanding their results. The battle on the city walls on both wings progressed relatively quickly, and before long, half of the pass wall was in Qingming's hands.

Little Wei Yuan stood above the West Gate pass city, taking in the entire battle situation. At this moment, he stood in the air, and no Zhao army Dharma Form dared to rise into the sky.

Little Wei Yuan's reputation and battle achievements had already spread, and well-informed Dharma Form cultivators knew that going up to duel with Little Wei Yuan one or two at a time was just sending food.

Even Qingming's light-armored infantry were equipped with breastplates, helmets, and crotch guards, and their advantage in close combat was extremely obvious. Even if they were hit head-on, most of them were injured but not dead. Most of the Zhao army wore leather armor, which was very weak in defense against both buckshot and ordinary firearm bullets, and many soldiers were even pierced through.

In the East City of Hanyang Pass, several Zhao army generals surrounded the woman in fire-red armor, bitterly persuading: "Retreat, if we don't retreat, it will be too late!"

Seeing that less than half an hour had passed and they had lost nearly half of the pass city, the woman was so angry that flames rose from her head, saying: "Hold on for a while! As long as we hold the Dongmen, at worst we can go out of the Dongmen and take a detour back to Zhao country!"

A general muttered in a low voice: "What if Little Wei Yuan sends troops to block the Dongmen..."

The woman turned around suddenly, staring at him, saying: "Where would Little Wei Yuan get the troops?"

The general said busily: "The end general thinks that if it were the end general leading the troops, he would inevitably have to divide a part to ambush outside the Dongmen."

The woman sneered: "Since you are so powerful, then the army might as well be given to you! I will let you sit in this position!"

The general knelt on the ground busily and said: "The end general does not dare!"

At this time, two older generals with higher positions came out together and said: "May I ask General Su, the Princess clearly set the strategy when she left, why change it suddenly? Retreating now is already late, if we don't retreat, we are afraid that the whole army will be wiped out!"

The woman said coldly: "The Princess gave the military order before she left, and I have full command! Why, you all are not convinced and intend to seize power?"

The two old generals looked at each other and said helplessly: "We dare not! Since the Princess has instructions, we should naturally obey. It is just that, does the Princess have any handwritten orders left? Can you let us take a look?"

The female general's voice raised an octave, angrily saying: "You dare not listen to the Princess's orders?! Come, cut these two old things for me!"

The surrounding personal guards did not dare to speak. These two old generals had high prestige in the army, and everyone did not dare to do it for a while.

Seeing this, the female general was even more annoyed, directly drew her long sword, and shouted: "Are you forcing me to do it? If you don't obey the order again, I will treat it as a mutiny and kill you all!"

The two old generals sighed, took off their helmets, and said: "General, calm down, we have offended you and will go back to plead guilty. Now, please think twice, the lives of these 100,000 soldiers are still in the general's thought!"

The female general was burning with flames all over, and the scorching high temperature forced the generals to take a step back. In terms of cultivation, no one in the room was her opponent.

At this moment, she was even more annoyed and shouted: "If you don't retreat according to your meaning, the whole army will be wiped out and defeated? Pass my order, the whole army fights to the death, and those who dare to retreat will be beheaded!"

At this moment, in Little Wei Yuan's eyes, the military aura of the Zhao army condensed again, surging and rising.

He was also a bit puzzled. He thought it would be a very easy battle. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Zhao army should retreat. And Little Wei Yuan was prepared to bite their buttocks all the way, forcing them to abandon their supplies. After driving them all back to Zhao country, Little Wei Yuan would see good and stop.

This was both taking advantage, hitting the spirit of Li Li Chengfeng's political enemies, the hatred was not deep, and Little Wei Yuan also recovered the lost territory, and his reputation was greatly boosted, which could be called the best of all four worlds.

But his wishful thinking had already gone bankrupt from the moment the Zhao army retreated into the city to fight to the death.

Little Wei Yuan couldn't figure it out no matter how he thought about it. For a so-called famous pass thousands of li away where even the pass-protecting formation had been dug up, was it worth fighting to the death like this?

Cui Yu knew Little Wei Yuan's thoughts, and at this time said: "How about surrounding three and leaving one, letting them go?"

Little Wei Yuan said: "Do you see that they have any intention of wanting to leave?"

Cui Yu was also puzzled: "Could it be that there is some big figure in the Zhao army? Or have they discovered some heavy treasure that cannot be moved for the time being?"

Little Wei Yuan's eyes lit up: "It must be so!"

Bao Yun appeared beside Little Wei Yuan and said: "What must be so! I only saw a few treasures of the Yu Jing realm, and they weren't very bright either. If you don't believe me, why not call Master Master Chuhe over to take a look."

Little Wei Yuan was not reconciled, and immediately asked someone to invite Master Master Chuhe from the camp. In the blink of an eye, the old Daoist arrived at the front of the formation, and saw a white light flash away in his hand, the flying mink jumped into the air and disappeared.

But in Little Wei Yuan's eyes, he could faintly see a ripple at this moment, rapidly skimming toward the Zhao army in the city. This was the trajectory of the flying marten; it could shuttle through the void, invisible to the naked eye. However, disturbing the Great Dao of space inevitably left traces, and now it could no longer escape Little Wei Yuan's gaze.

Master Master Chuhe's face changed at this moment, his mouth and nose stretched forward, turning into a huge rat nose, black and wet. He sniffed hard, and a few wisps of fine treasure aura flew out from the Zhao army and were sucked into his nose.

Subsequently, the Dharma Form disappeared, and Master Master Chuhe carefully savored the treasure aura. After a while, he said: "Only three or four Yu Jing treasures, all of them are ordinary goods, and I didn't see any special things, nor any rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures. The things in the medicine garden now have many better than these few."

Little Wei Yuan had deep trust in Master Chuhe's innate supernatural power, and at this moment his eyes gradually became deep, saying: "No treasure to guard, then it is to fight to the death with me? This unit, the bones are a bit hard!"

For opponents with backbone, Little Wei Yuan always wanted to break the opponent's backbone thoroughly to prevent future troubles. He immediately ordered the Dao foundation warriors stationed in the rear artillery team: Bombard the Dongmen!

Lu Yu received the order, immediately opened the Hanyang Pass city defense map, measured the distance, and then calculated the target position parameters and handed them to the artillery groups. The cultivators responsible for operating the cannons then made fine adjustments to the parameters according to their own group's orientation, and then started test firing.

After a round of artillery fire, the Dongmen of Hanyang Pass fell into a sea of fire.

The heavy cannons were fired one by one, and the cultivators in the front army observed the impact points and passed the correction orientation to Little Wei Yuan's Dao foundation warriors. The warriors in the front knew it, and the Dao foundation warriors in the rear would synchronize the correction orientation. After each heavy cannon was adjusted, it was a group of three, firing in turns, bombarding the Dongmen without stopping.

The Dongmen fell into a sea of fire, and the Zhao army in the city was shocked, and there was a not-small chaos. Several Zhao generals then discovered that the cannonballs were actually flying from outside the city in the west, and they were even more pale.

The Dongmen was bombarded continuously, and cannonballs of great power fell one after another, having long ago blown the area within a hundred zhang into a purgatory on earth. Below the Dao foundation, no one could survive.

The shelling lasted for a while, and there was no sign of stopping at all. A Zhao general said in a lost voice: "Little Wei Yuan is going to cut off our retreat!"

The only retreat was blocked by artillery fire, and the Zhao army in the city was already struggling to support, and at this moment, their morale finally collapsed, and people began to run away. The first batch to run away was beheaded by the supervising team behind, but as more and more people ran away, and the artillery fire at the Dongmen did not weaken at all, the supervising teams also joined the ranks of deserters.

The strong Zhao soldiers saw that the Dongmen was dangerous, and many simply climbed the pass wall and fled over the wall. Those who were not strong and scared crazy rushed into the Dongmen. But under the dense artillery fire, less than 30% could cross the fire line.

The rear was chaotic, and the front line also loosened. Many Zhao soldiers surrendered on the spot, and more Zhao soldiers chose to climb the wall and flee.

In the blink of an eye, the battle situation collapsed, the Zhao army's military aura was wavering, and it had been completely scattered by the Qingming military aura. Little Wei Yuan immediately flew up and rushed to the Zhao army's main camp. A group of Dragon Guards and Tai Chu Palace Dharma Forms followed, searching for Zhao army Dharma Form cultivators to fight. At this moment, with the military aura, Qingming cultivators had an absolute advantage.

In the blink of an eye, it was dusk, and the sound of guns in the pass city finally stopped, returning to silence.

Little Wei Yuan looked at the red-armored woman covered in blood in front of him and reached out to take off her mask.

Under the mask was a face that was somewhat distorted by anger and humiliation. It could be seen that her eyebrows and eyes were quite good, and she was considered a great beauty, but compared to Yuan Fei and Ning Guo, she was still significantly inferior.

Little Wei Yuan reached out to lift her chin, moved her face left and right, and looked at it carefully. The woman struggled desperately, but she was captured with heavy injuries, her sea of consciousness was sealed, and she couldn't lift half of her magic power, so she couldn't struggle at all.

She screamed: "If you touch me again, I will let the Princess kill you!"

Little Wei Yuan sighed and said: "Sure enough, it's not the Princess, I said how could she grow like this. Then who are you?"

The woman spat, and a mouthful of saliva spat toward Little Wei Yuan. Little Wei Yuan didn't dodge, the saliva turned a corner and slapped directly on her own face, and then Little Wei Yuan raised his hand and gave her a slap, swelling half of her face.

It was just that Little Wei Yuan sent her saliva back first, then slapped her, and as a result, his hand was also stained with a lot of saliva. Little Wei Yuan's stomach suddenly surged, and he hurriedly took out a handkerchief, wiped his palm carefully, and then blew a real fire to burn it, fearing that some unclean things would be left behind.

"You, you dare to hit me?!" The woman couldn't believe it.

Little Wei Yuan didn't answer at all and said to the left and right: "Since it's not the Princess, then it's useless. Take it down and behead it!"

The woman was shocked and screamed: "I grew up with the Princess, I am the Princess's best playmate! If you kill me, the Princess will definitely not let you go!"

Little Wei Yuan said lightly: "I even want to catch the Princess, do you guess I will be afraid that she won't let me go? If you can't speak well, then I can cut your tongue first."

"You dare?!"

Before her voice fell, her left face was slapped again, and then Little Wei Yuan signaled, and a Dragon Guard walked over, pulled out her tongue with Dao power, and swung a knife!

"Don't! I'll talk!!" After the scream, the woman discovered that the Dragon Guard's knife brushed past her tongue, only drawing a line of blood.

After another while.

Little Wei Yuan's face was very wonderful, saying: "You mean, originally the Princess left a military order for you to test and then retreat, but you were not convinced and had to fight this battle with me, right?"

"... Yes." The woman's face was pale, and she didn't dare to be arrogant anymore.

"You have a good relationship with the Princess?"

"Very, very good, I am her best secret friend, she trusts me the most."

Little Wei Yuan was lost in thought: "What is your name?"

"Su, Su Su Hongmei."

Little Wei Yuan nodded and said: "You can go."

Su Su Hongmei almost couldn't believe her ears, but Little Wei Yuan immediately withdrew the Dao power that sealed her sea of consciousness, and then ordered someone to take her magic treasure spirit sword and return it together.

She had thought that Little Wei Yuan wanted to play cat and mouse, but even after flying several li away, Little Wei Yuan was still completely motionless, just watching her go away.

Su Su Hongmei stopped and called out from afar: "Why let me go?"

Little Wei Yuan was already thinking about other things in his heart at this moment, and said casually: "Because... you look good."

Su Su Hongmei's expression instantly became complicated, she stomped her feet and turned away.
