Chapter 65: I've spent a lot of money? I can still break the formation!
Ok?
Xu Beichen was slightly stunned.

That surging blood and energy, was actually the lives of the young men captured by Chen Xiongtu before?

He once again recalled the great formation that covered the entire Chuzhou City.

I quickly understood it.

With three almost top-notch land immortals sitting together in Chuzhou City, they can naturally form such a large formation.

But if we want to keep this formation going.

They alone will definitely not be enough!
so……

Were the able-bodied men captured by Chen Xiongtu previously intended to be used as fuel for the formation?
"That makes sense..."

Xu Beichen's eyes became even colder.

This Chen Xiongtu really did everything he could to win this battle!

They had already anticipated that Chen Xiongtu might use all 350,000 able-bodied men as cannon fodder to deal with the Northern Liang Cavalry.

In this way, the Beiliang cavalry were put on the fire.

If you kill him, you will be cursed for eternity!

And now it seems.

Chen Xiongtu did not give them any room for choice and directly treated these strong men as the foundation for maintaining the formation!
"After this battle, regardless of the outcome, the three land immortals will be dead!" A sneer flashed on Li Sisheng's face, which still had some scholarly air.

Hearing this, Xu Beichen raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is this a direct prediction of the fate of the three land immortals?

However, Li Sisheng has not yet entered the martial arts world, so he probably doesn’t know much about the immortals on earth…

Thinking of this, Xu Beichen looked at Old Liu beside him again.

"Old Liu, you mentioned earlier that the three land immortals were all on the Immortal Conferred List?"

Previously, Old Liu guessed the identities of the three land immortals based on the three weapons in Chuzhou City.

However, what is this Immortal List?
Old Liu nodded and immediately explained to Xu Beichen.

"It is said that whenever the immortals on earth open the gate to heaven and ascend to heaven, some rankings will appear above the gate. This is the Immortal List."

"And those whose names are on the Immortal Conferred List will be ranked according to the order of their highest probability of ascending!"

"It is said that the last time the gates of heaven opened."

"The Buddhist Zen Master Kong Ji is ranked ninth and is known as the third ancestor of modern Buddhism."

"And Taoist Master Huang Yu, ranked eighth, was a Heavenly Master canonized by the Dayang court several decades ago."

"As for the Confucianist Jiang Chengche, he ranks sixth..."

Before he finished his introduction.

Li Sisheng on the side smiled coldly.

"Jiang Chengche has always been known as the top scholar in the world!"

"This person always follows the example of ancient saints and has a noble spirit. He is admired by all scholars in the world!"

He seemed to be particularly familiar with Jiang Chengche.

He reminded Xu Beichen again.

"Jiang Qingyang who rushed to Jinzhou City earlier is the descendant of this person's family."

Hear what the two said.

Xu Beichen had some understanding of the three land immortals in Chuzhou City.

"The origins of these people are bigger than each other!"

He couldn't help but be a little surprised.

These are all beings who are about to ascend to become immortals!

And in this battle, all of them will die in Chuzhou City...

A hint of mockery appeared in Li Sisheng's expression.

"These three people are not only famous, but each of them is respected by the world."

"And now, they are willing to go against their previous code of conduct and sacrifice hundreds of thousands of lives in this battle..."

"Then, not to mention anything else, their own Dao hearts will be shattered first!"

"Now it seems that the Dayang court has probably consumed all the goodwill they have accumulated with the three religions since the founding of the dynasty!"

after all.

The three land immortals who can ascend to heaven will all die in this battle.

No matter how much affection the Dayang Dynasty has for the three religions, it is time to use it up.

Xu Beichen thought for a while before asking Li Sisheng again: "Now that they have set up this large formation, they can suppress all the top warriors in our army."

"Saint, do you have any good ideas?"

This suppression is indeed a bit tricky!
Not only will he be unable to leap into the air, but he will also have difficulty walking on the battlefield.

In that case, the Beiliang Cavalry will become a sitting duck for the Pingxi Army on the battlefield!
No matter how strong the Beiliang Cavalry is.

We can't use such a consumptive approach!

And for these.

Li Sisheng thought about it for a moment and then sighed again.

"Just as we expected, Chen Xiongtu actually doesn't just intend to fight our Beiliang Iron Cavalry head-on."

"They're going to consume us to death!"

"This large formation, with so many troops mobilized, should be able to last for at least a month."

"But in a month at most, it will snow heavily..."

By that time, the Beiliang cavalry was short of food and fodder, and the roads were blocked by heavy snow, making it difficult to move forward.

The city of Chuzhou occupies a natural strategic location and is guarded by a large formation.

The Northern Liang Iron Cavalry did not have the right time, right place, and right people.

That battle.

How else to fight?
It would be better to retreat back to Jinzhou City and wait until the ice and snow melt before attacking again.

But this way.

Let’s not talk about how the Dayang court will respond at that time.

The Northern Mang army will certainly not just sit there and watch the Northern Liang cavalry grow stronger again!
"What a great move to cut off the firewood from under the cauldron!"

Xu Beichen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

This trick has been used to perfection by Chen Xiongtu!
but.

But he is not without a solution!
But he did not rush to make a decision, but continued to listen to Li Sisheng's advice.

"Your Majesty, the worst option now is to retreat back to Jinzhou City."

"Since we are clearing the emperor's entourage, how can we give up halfway?"

Li Sisheng shook his head and continued speaking.

"In addition, I have two more plans."

"First, the army will continue to attack for some time and then change its route!"

"Let the Chuzhou formation consume some energy first, so that the three land immortals will be attacked and unable to change."

"My Beiliang cavalry will change their route to Jizhou or Liangzhou and march from these two places!"

In this way, even if Chuzhou City is protected by a large formation, the other two cities may not be impregnable.

of course.

The army changed its route, and the journey became even more difficult...

"Second, continue to send troops to attack Chuzhou City and burn our boats!"

"Attack every day and forcibly consume the Chuzhou formation!"

"In this case, even a land immortal would not be able to withstand such consumption."

This will accelerate the destruction of the Chuzhou formation!
But this way.

This Chuzhou city can be taken down by fighting.

The consumption is huge!
At the same time, we must guard against the counterattack of the Pingxi Army!

But as for the second plan, Xu Beichen only thought about it for a moment and then smiled coldly again.

"We don't need to change our route, we can still attack from Chuzhou City!"

"But, other than that."

"I do have a solution!"

Speaking of which.

He smiled at Li Sisheng.

"If there are thousands of soldiers among my Beiliang Iron Cavalry, they suddenly appear in Jinzhou City."

"Besides, does this king have a way to break their formation in one fell swoop?"

Hear the words.

Li Sisheng's eyes suddenly opened!
