Chapter 184: Sharpening the Knife in Battle


Although the wooden bridge was successfully built, the Jingguo people had no strength left to continue the attack."

Withdraw!"

Si Zuo shouted slightly unwillingly, his voice was loud, with a strong penetrating power, and it spread in all directions.Hearing this sound, all the disciples on the city wall who were originally manipulating various tools and frantically attacking below were all shocked.They manipulated their proud equipment to attack frantically below, but they were all intercepted by the opponent's masters, so that the Jingguo soldiers successfully built a wooden bridge.They were in a state of depression, thinking that the defense of Nanguan was about to be lost, but the people of Jingguo were going to withdraw at this time.What's going on?

Li Zheng held a meeting with several sect masters and elders of the Advance Heaven and Fake Thing First Line, and set a strategy to consume the Advance Heaven of the Respect Country, and the ordinary Fake Thing One Pulse disciples just carried it out, and they didn't know the reason, so it was no wonder that they were surprised.Also surprised was the tens of thousands of Jingguo troops behind, seeing that the adults showed their might, stopped the opponent's various attacks, and after paying the price of more than 200 soldiers killed and wounded, they finally built a wooden bridge, but their own side had to withdraw the army?

What's going on?

Although I don't know why, but Si Zuo has already ordered, and they can only carry it out.Jingguo's army was the first to retreat, and the eleven Jingguo Qiantian confronted Li Zheng and others for a while, and they all retreated.As for the more than 200 Jingguo soldiers who went to build the wooden bridge, some of them braved the rain of arrows and all kinds of shells to retreat into the Jingguo army, but more of them were lying next to the trench and by the moat.In the blink of an eye, Jingguo's army withdrew a mile away.Li Zheng and the others did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, under the city wall, if the Jingguo people did not retreat, of course they had the advantage, but now the Jingguo people have retreated to a mile away, and the firepower on the city wall cannot be covered at all, and it is difficult for them to catch up with them again.Seeing that the people of Jingguo had already set up camp a mile away, Li Zheng and the others did not delay any longer, and they also retreated to the city wall.After a while, a small gate under the city gate opened, and a small group of Nanshan soldiers came out and demolished the wooden bridge built by the Jingguo soldiers.Although the first formation successfully blocked Jingguo's attack, Li Zheng was not easy at all.Such a reckless firing of bows and cannonballs put a huge strain on their reserves.If it continues to be consumed like this, I am afraid that after three or five days, the reserves will be exhausted.At that time, what else will be relied on to stop the army of Jingguo?

Besides, Si Zuo released water today.Si Zuo probably felt that the victory was in his hands and did not take it seriously.With Si Zuo's strength, he could completely devote part of his energy to blocking the cannonballs flying in the air when he was against Li Zheng.If he had done so, the five days would not have to bear that much pressure, and perhaps they would have been able to sustain themselves for a while longer.The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if the five advance days are supported for a longer period of time, maybe the situation will be different.Li Zheng can think of this, Si Zuo is not stupid, of course he can think of it.Although those five pre-heavens have exhausted their innate qi, they will only recover in a day or two, and it is conceivable that the Jingguo army will launch a new wave of attacks at that time.Taking advantage of the break, Li Zheng asked the disciples of the fake vein to make more cannonballs for subsequent battles.In addition, send someone to ask Lu Zhen for help, there is no movement on the beast's side, and maybe more forces can be mobilized to Shounan Pass.And in the information brought to Lu Zhen, Li Zheng also mentioned Beishan Kingdom, not long ago, Li Zheng and the two went to Beishan Country to support, and now Nanshan Country wants to help, presumably Beishan Country can't turn a blind eye.If the Beishan country is captured by the Jingguo people, the Nanshan country will face the Jingguo, and similarly, if the Nanshan country is not protected, the Beishan country will be surrounded by the Jingguo people, and it will not want to exist alone.Although the strength of Beishan Country is not strong, it may not be able to give much help, but no matter how much a fly falls, it is meat, even if it is the most insignificant force, Li Zheng has to call it up.After doing all this, Li Zheng gathered all the advance heavens together.Si Zuo's strength far surpassed that of his peers, letting him know that strengthening his mind would improve his pre-natal strength.If a few more people on their side start the process of strengthening their minds, their overall combat power will also increase a lot.Although I have to fight with Jingguo people now, I think it is a little late to strengthen my mind, but I am not happy to sharpen my knife in battle.Li Zheng felt that Xia Ke and the others might have any misunderstanding about pumping lead to increase tribute and strengthen their minds......

According to Xia Ke, he tried it once before, but he almost went mad, and he didn't dare to try it again.Wukong Zen Master is even more ashamed, some time ago Li Zheng tried to add fire attributes to the innate qi, and wanted to dry the city wall that had just been repaired and was still a little damp, but he didn't succeed.Wukong Zen Master was on the side at the time, and after giving Li Zheng a demonstration, he also asked Li Zheng if he hadn't started to smoke lead and add tribute.At that time, Li Zheng had not yet started to draw lead to add tribute to strengthen his mind, and when he heard Wukong Zen Master ask, he thought that Wukong Zen Master could only add fire attributes to his innate qi after he began to draw lead and add tribute.It wasn't until he successfully started the process of strengthening his mind, and listened to Xia Ke talk about the vision after strengthening his mind, that he realized that Wukong Zen Master himself hadn't started to smoke lead at all.However, because he was busy with everything, this thought just turned in his head, and he left it behind, and he didn't reason with Wukong Zen Master.At this time, Li Zhen thought of this again.He felt that Zen Master Wukong might not be lying to him, it was very likely that Zen Master Wukong himself didn't know much about these things, so he just had to tell him about it.Li Zheng had been strengthening his mind for a while, and he felt that it was necessary to share his experience with everyone, maybe a few more Xia Ke and the others would also start to strengthen their minds.Li Zheng told everyone about the scene of strengthening his mind and some of the experiences in the process of strengthening his mind these days, and then let Xia Ke be the first to try."

Senior brother, I ......"

Xia Ke had a sad expression on his face, but he was a little resistant to Xia Ke, who had always been obedient to Li Zheng's words, at this time."

Xiao Ke, be obedient, you'll be fine."

Li Zheng said comfortingly."

Then you stand by my side, if there is anything, you must protect me!"

Xia Ke grabbed the corner of Li Zheng's clothes and said pitifully, with a look of fear on his face, as if he was going to the execution ground."

Don't worry, it's okay."

Li Zheng patted Xia Ke lightly and motioned for her to sit down on the futon.Then Li Zheng beckoned Zen Master Qianzhang and others to come over, on the one hand, to watch the process of Xia Ke's strengthening of his mind, to prepare for them to start strengthening his mind, and on the other hand, to protect Xia Ke's Dharma.According to Xia Ke, the process of strengthening their minds for the first time was very dangerous, and they had to stay on the side and be ready at all times, and if they found that the situation was wrong, they would immediately intervene.
