Chapter 9
Baili Mountain.
"Saintess, the Zhennan Palace is so cruel and ruthless that they set fire to the mountain, causing many of my Baili people to die in the sea of fire."
"Yes, Saint, the Zhennan Palace is coming with such force this time. If we don't take action, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."
"Saintess, the actions of the Zhennan Palace have angered heaven and people. I think we can unite with Jiuli and Nanzhao to fight the enemy together."
"If necessary, you can contact the Li Qian royal family. Otherwise, my Baili tribe will be burned to ashes."
Many elders of the Baili tribe spoke up one after another, and the fire was now spreading very quickly.
Many tribesmen are even trapped in the fire at this moment, and I’m afraid they won’t be able to hold on for much longer!
Although the Baili tribe has an inherent advantage, it is still an army of 100,000 after all.
Moreover, the Zhennan Army sent by the Zhennan Palace was extremely well-equipped.
Zhennan Army, Black Armor Army, and Black Cavalry Army.
These are the three armies controlled by the Prince of Zhennan's Palace. Each army has a strength of 100,000, for a total of 300,000 troops.
Originally, the southern border had an army of one million, but in order to give face to the royal family, Suluan dismissed 700,000 troops.
But the remaining 300,000 troops were selected from the million-strong army, and they were undoubtedly the elite among the elite.
The three armies are one of the biggest reliances of the Zhennan Palace, and are also one of the reasons why Daqian is so wary.
The three armies are all well-equipped and are the elite among the elite.
Someone once said that an army of 300,000 in the south could be as powerful as an army of one million.
"What does the Great Elder want to do?"
The woman wearing a navy blue veil sitting in the center spoke.
As she tilted her head slightly to look at the Great Elder, the silver ornaments on her body jingled.
Hearing this, the Great Elder fell silent.
How can he plan?
The Baili tribe seems to have a superior geographical location, but it is also extremely embarrassing.
To the north is the southern border where the Zhennan Palace is located, to the south is the Nanzhao Kingdom, and to the east is the Jiuli tribe.
As for the west? There is an uninhabited area separating the Baili people and the Baiyue people.
But those uninhabited areas are all unexplored and dangerous places, and the dangers therein are self-evident.
The Baili tribe is already small in number, and its territory cannot expand in all directions.
We can only guard this little piece of land, otherwise we would never be so passive.
"Since the Zhennan Palace wants to fight, what should my Baili clan fear?"
"Even if every member of my Baili clan dies in battle, the Zhennan Army will be annihilated."
The Saint of the Baili tribe spoke, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
"Have the tribesmen retreat to Baili Mountain and set up an ambush on the route that the Zhennan Army must take."
"I want half of the Zhennan Army to die before they reach Baili Mountain."
The Saint of the Baili tribe spoke, her eyes full of determination.
"But at the command of the Saint."
The elders present knelt down one after another to express their loyalty.
Among the Baili people, the saint is respected.
The saint's witchcraft is also one of the best among the Baili people.
"Also, I remember the Fifth Elder developed a poison that would become active when exposed to fire."
When the Saintess of the Baili tribe spoke, the Great Elder immediately understood what she meant.
As for the fire?
Just burn it. The Baili people are sparsely populated and most of them gather near Baili Mountain.
There are only a few scattered members of the tribe scattered within the territory of Baili.
In front of Baili Mountain, the water of Li River blocks the way and cannot burn Baili Mountain at all.
Li River is a vast river that runs through the Jiuli and Baili tribes and flows through Ningzhou and Nanzhao.
No matter how much this fire burns, it can never reach Baili Mountain.
It’s just a pity about the resources within the Baili tribe.
"Pfft!"
The sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh was heard, and then an elder fell down.
"Who?"
Saint Baili reacted extremely quickly and immediately slammed her palm towards the source of the power fluctuations.
The palm print hit the chair behind him, and the chair shattered, but did not force the person out.
Then another elder fell down.
Everything was silent, as if it were the work of a ghost.
"Who are you?"
The elders gathered together, back to back, guarding their surroundings.
"boom!"
Sensing the crisis, the Saintess of the Baili tribe subconsciously dodged and then slammed out with a palm.
Yanri was knocked out by a palm, but he quickly retracted his body and hid his figure.
"Pfft!"
Another elder fell down, and many elders were panicked. They couldn't help but tighten their weapons in their hands, fearing that they would be the next to fall.
The Saint of the Baili tribe was furious. After all, these elders were all masters and the backbone of the Baili tribe.
Every death weakens the strength of the Baili clan.
"Where to go?"
The Great Elder of the Baili tribe sensed something and quickly jumped up to kill the man.
However, he soon sensed a fatal danger and subconsciously turned around to resist.
But he couldn't dodge at all and was pierced through the heart by the sword.
Make a sound in the east and attack in the west!
"Great Elder!"
Upon seeing this, the elders present immediately took action and took the chief elder behind them.
Even the Saintess of the Baili tribe was like this, she was so angry that she almost bit her teeth off.
In the entire Baili clan, there are only three great masters, and the Great Elder is one of them.
Now that the Great Elder is dead, it is undoubtedly a fatal crisis for the Baili people.
Jingwei, Hei Bai Xuan Jian and Yanri showed up, stood side by side, and looked coldly at the Baili people.
"Under the Crown Prince's command, the top assassins of Luowang, Jing Niu, Hei Bai Xuan Jian, and Yan Ri, collect interest on his behalf."
After the three of them said this, they turned around and left.
No one present dared to stop them, simply because these three people were all powerful grandmasters.
The Baili Saint clenched her fists and looked at the backs of the three men with murderous intent.
The three Grand Masters are all mid-stage Grand Masters.
The Prince of Zhennan’s Mansion is really well hidden.
"Great Elder!"
An elder spoke, only to find that the Great Elder was already lifeless.
"Second Elder, please handle this matter."
After the Baili Saint finished speaking, she turned and left.
In the room of the Baili Saint.
"You, Daqian, must give me an explanation for this matter, the Baili people. Otherwise, there is no need to cooperate with me anymore."
The Baili Saint sat on a chair and spoke to the person behind the screen.
A figure appeared on the screen, and judging from his figure, it should be a man.
"I had not anticipated this. I will report this to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to send reinforcements."
"Daqian and Baili have a cooperative relationship. Daqian will naturally not watch its allies get into trouble."
After saying this, the figure disappeared.
The anger in the heart of the Baili Saint calmed down a little, and she poured herself a cup of tea.
However, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across her brows. After all, others are just others and cannot be relied upon. The only person who can be relied upon is herself.
However, what the Baili Saint did not notice was that another beautiful figure disappeared in the room.
This person is undoubtedly Jing Niu.
After killing the people, Jingwei did not leave. Instead, he followed the Holy Maiden of the Baili tribe and appeared here.
Su Heng had long suspected that Daqian was colluding with Baili. After all, how could the small Baili tribe have the courage to test the military strength of the Zhennan Palace?
That's why he deliberately exposed Luowang and let everyone know that he had such a force under his command, with the purpose of intimidating the Li Qian royal family.
