The situation of ghost mist
Pan Dahai, Cao Hao, Han Boqing and two Lord Wuhou from Weiyang County walked up to the sand village in the canyon, stood on the remains of the wooden wall that had not been completely burned, and looked into the canyon.
Hundreds of other Martial Lord-level captains wearing mysterious armor also appeared on the sand village. Seeing that the entire sand village was burned down by fire, they were all frightened.
Thousands of skeleton archers and no less than a dozen ghost lords were completely burned by Ye Fan's move "Wine Mist Explosion". It was indeed the unique skill of Marquis Jiu Wu, and was unusually powerful.
"General Pan, now the only entrance and exit of the canyon, Sand Village, has been captured by Ye Fan. How should we destroy the ghost soldiers deep in the canyon?"
Ling Jiaojiao came to several Wu Hous and asked.
"Ye Fan made the first effort to capture this sand village and was rewarded with a thousand gold coins. His military achievements were also recorded! As for how to destroy the ghost soldiers in the canyon, can you guys find a way to clear the ghost fog in this canyon?!"
Pan Dahai pondered for a while and said.
If the ghost fog is not cleared away, this canyon will be like a land of black fog to them, and they will not be able to see it from a distance. Ghost soldiers may come out from anywhere at any time, causing them huge losses.
The martial arts masters all shook their heads. With their abilities, there was definitely nothing they could do against the ghost mist that ranged for dozens of miles.
"Brother Cao, your 'Wine Mist Explosion' is a large-scale burning combat skill. Can it clear out all the ghost mist?"
Princess Han Baiqing couldn't help but ask Cao Hao.
Cao Hao did a quick calculation, quickly shook his head and said: "Just now, Ye Fan used a jar of third-level wine, which only cleared away the ghost mist within a few dozen feet at the mouth of the canyon. Even if I did it myself, the effect of a jar of wine would be It's almost the same, it can only burn away the ghost mist within a few hundred feet. But the ghost mist in the canyon will move. Even if a small part is cleared, the ghost mist inside will soon be diffused and covered again, and the effect is really very little."
He was reluctant to use the extremely precious Vitality Wine to clean up the ghost mist within the canyon within a radius of dozens of miles.
A jar of third-level wine can cost one or two thousand Yuan Stones. Without hundreds of jars of wine, it is impossible to clear away the ghost mist within dozens of miles in this grand canyon.
How could he be willing to use all his wealth and hundreds of thousands of yuan stones to burn this mere ghost mist. Unless the Ghost Lord appears, he will not use combat skills.
Even Cao Hao, the pinnacle of the Wuhou Realm, couldn't do anything against Guiwu, let alone the others.
"It seems that we can only go in directly now!"
Pan Yun looked eager to try and was very interested in going deep into the ghost mist.
"But who can go in? Ordinary warriors and cavalry are definitely not allowed. They cannot stay in the ghost mist for more than half an hour, otherwise they will be poisoned by the ghost mist. At least they must be martial masters, who can persist in the ghost mist for at least Half a day! In other words, at most, only more than 300 Martial Lords can go deep into the canyon! It is best for the five Martial Lords to go in together, in order to scare the three Ghost Lords and ensure the safety of this battle!"
Princess Ling Jiaojiao asked everyone.
"But, if the five Wuhou Lords and all the Wulords go in, what will happen to the 30,000 cavalry army outside? They can work together to resist the Ghost Lord. But once they are attacked by the Ghost Lord, they cannot resist it!"
Li Hao shook his head.
Everyone discussed in front of the sand village and proposed many tactics, but these ideas were not very satisfactory and were directly rejected by Pan Dahai.
If the five Wu Hous do not enter the ghost mist of the canyon together, then the other Wu Hous will enter the canyon on their own. Once they encounter the ghost princes, they will probably die or not, and they will not be able to save them.
But if all five Wuhou Lords enter the ghost mist of the canyon, the 30,000 human cavalry army outside the valley will be exposed to the threat of the ghost princes and may be attacked at any time.
And it is even a stupid idea to separate the five Lord Wuhou, half inside and half outside to lead the army. It is equivalent to directly weakening half of one's own high-level combat effectiveness, but giving the three ghost princes an opportunity to defeat each one.
Whether you divide your troops or not, you will expose your own weaknesses.
Ye Fan has also been thinking hard about countermeasures.
The army of the three counties has five Wuhou, three to four hundred Wuzun, and 30,000 cavalry troops. Its strength is about twice that of the three ghosts, hundreds of ghosts, and about 10,000 ghost soldiers of the ghost tribe in the canyon.
In a head-on battle, the human army versus the ghost army has a chance of winning at least 70%.
The reason why the three ghost princes avoided fighting and hid in the depths of the ghost mist in the canyon was because they saw this. They have a low chance of winning in a head-on battle, so they must use ghost mist to fight in the canyon.
The reason why this battle was so difficult for the human army was because a large area of dozens of miles of ghost mist shrouded the canyon in front of them, obscuring their vision and making them completely unable to grasp the movements of the ghosts in the canyon.
On the contrary, the ghost soldiers can freely come and go in the ghost mist of the canyon with unobstructed vision, and can easily monitor the deployment of their human army.
The ghost race is in the dark, and the human race is in the light.
Once the 30,000 human army shows obvious flaws, the Ghost Lord will definitely launch a fatal blow to the human army and defeat the human army in one blow.
It is because of the large amount of ghost mist in this canyon that the ghost tribe, which was originally at a disadvantage, has a huge local advantage.
If the human army rushes into this ghost mist canyon rashly, the chance of winning will never exceed 10% to 20%, and defeat is almost certain.
...
In the Grand Canyon.
The ghostly fog shrouded the area for dozens of miles, making it hazy.
Several skull eagles are soaring in the sky of the canyon, and a few ghost apes are looking at the steep ridge of the canyon.
In the canyon, all living creatures have been transformed into ghosts.
Three ghost princes with huge ghost bodies stood less than fifteen miles away from the entrance of the valley. Their ghost eyes were burning with ghostly fire, looking through the mist of ghosts at the human army more than ten miles outside the valley.
The leader of the ghost lord is a majestic zombie ghost lord with a shining golden crown on his head and a withered face. He is wearing a full set of high-end mysterious armor and various colorful treasure pendants. He looks like a descendant of an ancient noble noble. .
The other two ghost princes seemed much "shabby". They were the two Wuhou who were killed in Xiayang County. After their death, they were moved to the underground palace and resurrected into ghost princes by the dim light of the "ghost world".
They no longer have the memory consciousness of their lifetime. After becoming ghost princes, they quickly gave birth to a new ghost clan consciousness and completely became a real ghost clan.
Surrounding the three Ghost Lords were hundreds of Ghost Lords and tens of thousands of skeleton and zombie soldiers. All the ghost soldiers were silent, silently waiting for the ghost lord's order.
"The human race captured the sand village at the entrance of the canyon. But under the ghost fog, do they dare to come in and die?"
A ghost prince said quietly.
"If you come in, you will die!"
"If they dare not come in, they will have no choice but to withdraw their troops! In just a few years, Lord Ghost Saint's 'ghost world' will make us stronger. The ghost fog will also be bigger, and can even spread to hundreds of miles. ! When the time comes, even if King Wu comes in person, he may not be our opponent! This desert will belong to my ghost clan from now on!"
The golden-crowned ghost lord smiled coldly and sternly.
...
Princess Ling Jiaojiao looked at the ghost mist in front of her, feeling very helpless.
She glanced at Ye Fan, who had been silent, and asked him with some expectation: "Ye Fan, do you have any good strategies? Can you break this ghost fog?"
Many of the warriors on the sand village couldn't help but look at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan killed 300 ghost cavalry in one breath, and used the "Wine Mist Explosion" move to capture the canyon sand village guarded by thousands of ghost tribesmen without losing a single soldier. No martial master can do better than him to the limit that the nobles can reach.
No matter whether it is Young Princess Li Hao or Pan Yun of Donglai County, Zhao Ritian or Shen Bingliu of Weiyang County, or Wu Feiyao of Xiayang County and other top martial arts masters, none of them can achieve such a smooth attack. Get off this ghost tribe's sand village.
Except for a few Martial Lords who still harbor competitive hostility towards him, most Martial Lords have great admiration for Ye Fan's combat prowess and have included him among the top late-stage Martial Lord Realm masters in this conquest of the Ghost Clan.
Except for the five Lord Wu Lords, Ye Fan can be said to be the faintest master among all the Martial Lords. There are no more than five or six people who can compete with him.
The martial arts masters are naturally looking forward to Ye Fan once again creating heroic miracles, finding ways to break through the ghost mist, and enter the ghost mist.
"It's impossible to break the ghost fog! Several Lords of Wuhou are helpless against this ghost fog, let alone my weak strength!"
Ye Fan slowly shook his head.
Ling Jiaojiao and the other martial masters couldn't help but look disappointed.
Li Hao saw that Ling Jiaojiao valued Ye Fan so much and ignored them, but he was jealous and said with a bit of ridicule: "Princess, please don't embarrass Ye Fan! Even if he is a genius in martial arts, With his talent and knowledge as deep as the sea, there is a limit after all. Taking down the sand village and making the first contribution is already his limit! In this battle of ghost mist in the canyon, don't force him anymore, let others Come and fight!"
"Yes, princess, just leave this canyon to us!"
Pan Yun also spoke loudly.
"Oh, leave it to you? Apart from taking my soldiers from the Canglan Kingdom and forcing their way into the canyon to die, do you have any better ideas?"
Ling Jiaojiao glanced at them and said coldly, "This 30,000-strong army conquering the desert ghost tribe in Xiayang County is not a simple battle. Once the army is defeated, our Canglan Kingdom will not be able to recover for a year and a half." , it will be difficult to assemble an army to conquer in a short period of time! Our Canglan Kingdom has now had another serious threat, which is comparable to the threat to our Canglan Kingdom from the wolf tribe in the Lieri Mountains. Can you bear this responsibility? What's the chance of winning? 10% or 20%, or 30% or 40%? If you don't even have half the chance of winning, how can you just talk about fighting!"
Li Hao and Pan Yun wanted to defend themselves, but they were feeble and speechless.
Apart from forcing their way in, facing the ghostly fog in this canyon, they had no better idea.
But the price of the army's defeat was not something they could bear.
Princess Jiaojiao is no ordinary martial lord, but the apple of the eye of the current king of Canglan Kingdom. Her words represent the question of the king of Canglan Kingdom.
The five Wuhou adults on the sand village could not help but remain silent.
Hundreds of other martial arts masters also fell silent.
Breaking through the ghost fog in this canyon means huge casualties. Many of them will not be able to return alive after this battle.
It may even suffer a huge defeat, leading to the annihilation of the entire army.
