Chapter 198 Be prepared
...
The ghost of Mount Li stood at the entrance of the camp, looking at the Yucheng five miles away.
The guards on the fish city are tightly guarded, and the spiritual power fluctuates on the huge city wall. You can tell at a glance that the defensive formations have been blessed.
Half a day ago, these defensive formations were not at all threatened in the eyes of Mount Li ghosts.
He could even be sure that if he wanted to attack the city with great force, the city could withstand ten days, even if the commander in it was in charge of the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty, Ji De, was powerful.
But when Gu Fei returned to the camp with a pale face and brought back the news that Cen Feng was frustrated in attacking Yucheng, the ghost of Mount Li had much less confidence in whether he could easily capture Yucheng.
A mere small city was actually arranged by the Zhou people in countless terrible formations, and even the ancient door could not be completely broken.
Gu Di didn’t come back with just one mouth.
He brought back a few photo balls and recorded the war in all aspects.
In addition to the photo balls on the battlefield, Lishan Ghost also watched the war through Jingyue, but the images brought back by the photo balls were more comprehensive.
Through the information on the photo ball, the Lishan Ghost can be sure that there is no problem with Cen Feng's command, and even if he is present, he cannot recover the losses of the Shanshan Army.
Cen Feng was able to rationally sing the gold and withdraw his troops when the Shanshan Army suffered a great loss, which was very tempting to be a general. Despite this, the Lishan Ghost still scolded Cen Feng, but sent 20,000 reinforcements to Cen Feng, and at the same time allocated eight spiritual cannons to Cen Feng.
"What is the priority of Gucheng's formation?"
The Lishan Ghost himself is also a master of the battle formation, but he is still very modest in front of professionals like Gu Fei.
"The whole city is a large formation. There are countless small formations in the formation...even on each brick and stone, there are formation runes!"
Gu Fei took a deep breath and said slowly, "I have only seen such a city in Zhong... Shenzhou. Of course, Gucheng cannot be compared with it in terms of scale or exquisiteness."
Gu Fei mentioned the Middle Earth God Island, and his tone suddenly became stiff, but in the end he decided to continue talking.
"So awesome!"
The ghosts and appearances of Mount Li are solemn.
A city composed of formations - even a city that looks like a small city in Gucheng, is a vast project.
With the national strength of Zhou, it is an unbearable burden to build such a solid city.
The ghost of Mount Li can’t figure it out.
Gucheng has no strategic value, why did Zhou Guo do this?
Then the Lishan Ghost developed an association.
The formation of Gucheng was probably created by Zhou State a long time ago.
Zhou State has always been the main opponent of Chu State. Nine hundred years ago, Emperor Mu of Zhou State even almost destroyed Chu State.
Later, the Zhou State was in a position of defense. It is likely that from that time on, it had replaced its aggressive strategy with defense and built cities like Gucheng, which had countless formations on the border of Chu State.
A small city that has never been valued by the Chu State has such terrible defense capabilities, so what about Yucheng?
The ghosts in Mount Li turned their eyes to Yucheng again with a complicated expression.
There are many spies in the Chu State in Yucheng.
Almost every day, news is delivered in Yucheng.
The Xinbao described that the situation in Yucheng was very chaotic and the morale of the army was not very stable.
If the Zhou Kingdom had not spent a lot of money and opened three teleportation arrays, teleporting the ordinary people pouring into Yucheng to the rear, and making room for the defenders, Yucheng would have been unable to squeeze out people at this time.
Ji De, the supreme commander of Yucheng, described him as incompetent in Xinbao. He was a regular patrol officer every day, but he hid in his mansion and drank and had fun during the rest of his time. What's more, he didn't deal with the daily battle reports, as if the mountain-shaking army outside the city did not exist.
In the past, the ghost of Mount Li must have naturally regarded Ji De as a foolish and incompetent person, but now he is a little unsure. Is Ji De stupid or incompetent, or is he confident and ignores his hundreds of thousands of mountain-shaking troops?
"To know how Ji De's ability is, you only need to feint attack Yucheng once and become aware of it."
The Lishan ghost soon had an idea in his mind.
"But before that, I'd better take down Gucheng first, otherwise my morale will be poor."
The ghost of Mount Li sighed secretly.
The Shanshan Army was defeated twice, and the ghost of Mount Li had not sent the memorial back to the capital of Chu, but the court and the people of Chu had already clearly understood the matter, and it was even spread out with added fuel and ignorance.
For example, Sun Buhuan's defeat in the battle resulted in 5,000 people, but it was said that he had lost tens of thousands of soldiers and generals, and several lieutenants died in the battle.
And Cen Feng's frustration is even more amazing.
However, for a few hours, even the King of Chu was alarmed and personally opened Jingyue and asked him if Master Gufei had been killed by the enemy in the battle formation.
Fortunately, Gu Fei had returned to the military camp at that time, and Gu Fei personally talked with the King of Chu, which dispelled the King of Chu's doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Shanshan Army.
Moreover, the attention from the Chu court, Gucheng seemed to attract more attention than Yucheng.
All forces in the Chu State were staring at the ghost of Mount Li, what actions would they take against Gucheng next.
If not, the Lishan Ghost really didn't want to continue to struggle in the small place Gucheng.
According to his vision, he was to station 50,000 troops outside Gucheng, and then use resources to build a cage formation for Gudong.
After the cage formation covers Gucheng, all teleportation formations in Gucheng will not be used.
This is the strongest way to siege the city.
Cut off the enemy's materials and troops to teleport. No matter how powerful the enemy is, they will eventually be trapped to death. In the end, they either choose to surrender or starve to death.
In the eyes of Mount Li, this approach is the most foolproof and can reduce the losses of the Shansha Army. As for the resources lost in the arrangement of formations, as long as the war is won, it can be taken back hundreds or thousands of times on the land of the Zhou people.
It's a pity...
The whole country of Chu would not want to see such a dull war.
He had to crush Gucheng vigorously at the fastest speed and most fierce way, defeating this army that dared to claim to be Ping Chu army, and capturing the so-called Ping Chu Bo alive, so that the State of Chu and the King of Chu felt satisfied.
There is no way, this is the expectation of the temple, or in other words, this is the rules of the game in the temple.
The ghost of Mount Li was unwilling to follow this set of rules, but if he wanted to get more support, he had to cater to the recognition of King Chu and the people of the country.
"Master Gu, you have fought with Gucheng's formation. How much do you think we need to pay at least to break it in one fell swoop... What I am talking about is the consumption of materials and spiritual power, and does not involve the lives of the soldiers..."
After careful consideration, the ghost of Mount Li began to consider the plan to destroy the city given by Gu Di.
"After calculations, it is probably necessary..."
Gudong was excited.
With the full support of the Lishan Ghost, he will soon find the place back from Feidu.
