Chapter 175 Haiquanguanbei
Yanzhou, Haiquan Pass.

Looking closely at the huge city, one can see that it is made entirely of thick black rocks, and each piece of black rock is dozens of meters long.

Built up in this way, the huge and majestic city was almost like a beast crawling at the throat of the weakest point of Yanzhou from the former Beiting territory, and could reach Qizhou almost in an instant.

Just in terms of the size of the city, it is no less than a county town.

Outside the circular city, there are two thick walls made of huge stones stretching out from the east and the west, one side connecting to the rugged Yanshan Mountain.

Looking closely, there is a military fort standing on the Haiquan Peak, which is the closest to Haiquan Pass. It has the functions of protecting from high altitudes, giving warnings from heights and transmitting beacons.

At the end of the thick city wall on the other side, the wall even runs through a long and narrow seawall, enclosing a part of the naturally formed bay into an "inner lake".

At the end of the seawall, the thick city wall splits into two parts, north and south, stretching out in the sea in a half-city wall and half-fortress posture.

This is the defense line of Haiquan Pass facing the vast ocean.

But perhaps because it is still winter, the waves are surging continuously, and the black sea water that is even deeper than the city walls is constantly surging, and the cold mist is spreading in the endless black deep sea.

Cold and dead silent.

Only the waves roared like thunder in heaven and earth.

But when listening carefully, what was booming near Haiquan Pass was not just the disturbing sound of continuous thunder.

There were certain noises that were intertwined with the surging sounds of heaven and earth.

It sounded like a cry of killing.

To the north of the city gate of Haiquan Pass.

On an open plain.

The originally cold winter froze the water vapor swept in from the vast ocean, and a white frost like snowflakes spread on the flat ground that was frozen and hard like a cobblestone road.

But soon.

Such flatness no longer exists.

In the continuous tremors of the earth.

A large army of the demon clan and the Iron Scale Army formed their battle formations here and fought each other.

The force that shook the earth caused even the most frozen ground to become loose in the trembling.

Then, animal claws and horse hooves rushed across the increasingly loose ground, plowing up the soil and spilling warm, bright red blood.

Soon, the blood melted the layer of frost, turning the originally flat plain into a muddy and bloody Shura purgatory!

And in this purgatory.

The Taoist monks who are truly in the extraordinary realm are all wearing black extraordinary armor. With the layers of Taoist crowns unfolded on their heads, they sit astride scorpion-armored horses that have been refined into spiritual forms. The spears in their hands also have the blood-colored spiritual light of the extraordinary realm flashing and surging.

At the same time, in the military bunker on the top of Haiquan Peak, taking advantage of the clear weather, large groups of unmanned flying shuttles took off from it, overlooking the entire battlefield of Shura Purgatory from the extremely high altitude.

Soon, these observed scenes were transmitted to the city.

Soon, a group of unmanned shuttles loaded with warheads took off from the city gates and exploded on the plains.

The orders from the city command center were successively delivered to the ears of the Taoist monks wearing extraordinary armor.

Thus, it was as if there was a pair of invisible and delicate hands directing this Iron Scale Army. The dark torrent was rushing madly across the plain, charging continuously, tearing through the beasts' numerous defenses, and then breaking apart as soon as appropriate results were achieved.

With the help of technology, the Tielin Army has almost achieved the pinnacle of warfare.

But that's the case.

Facing the ferocious and vicious army of monsters, while constantly causing casualties, almost every moment, the Iron Scale Army was trapped in the monster army.

The armor made of special alloy was torn apart by the extraordinary power contained in the ferocious demonic text.

The crown cracked and the warhorse wailed.

The ultimate of the Iron Scale Army's tactics was to fight an evenly matched battle with the army of monsters that had arrived in front of the city.

And this is the result.

When looking closely, they were all the old, weak and sick monsters.

It was a ferocious army of ape monsters riding on wolf monsters.

What is ferocious is not only their aura, but also the external appearance of these monsters.

Some old apes were so old that their hair became gray and sparse.

There was a crippled wolf with a broken tail and a limping leg. Even the sharp fangs in its mouth had been broken off at some point. Upon closer inspection, there was still a half piece of demonic writing engraved on the broken fangs.

There are many people with broken arms, one eye, or mental confusion.

This is a lone army.

An isolated army that was truly abandoned by the demon clan and left to fend for itself.

An isolated army whose only way forward is utter destruction.

Their consumption of the city gates in the deep winter was their final contribution to the demon race before their death.

Beneath that ferocious and brutal aura, there is a certain numbness towards fighting and a certain tragic spirit of dying.

This lone army's spirit inspired the monsters to reach their peak state before they became old and disabled.

And from the beginning to the end, no one in the Iron Scale Army underestimated them.

Counting the ages, this army of monsters composed of old, weak, sick and disabled people, when they were "young" and in good shape, it was the time when the monsters and the Beiting Protectorate were fighting the most fiercely.

It can be said that it was this group of monsters that once served as the main force and gradually took over the vast Beiting for the monster clan.

The heat that bursts out from their bodies before they die cannot be underestimated.

Even in the gaps when the Iron Scale Army's tactics were smoothly connected, more than once, the army of monsters tore through the cavalry formation. Waves of ferocious monster wolf riders passed through the tears in the formation and were about to rush towards the city gate.

What greeted them was a meat grinder formed by the intersection of thunder, metal and storm.

The place where the bear stood and sat was the bloodiest and muddiest place on the entire battlefield!
Under the sharp claws, and under the armor that seemed to have been refined with a golden seal that made it look even more ferocious, the blood-soaked bear seemed to represent the pinnacle of some kind of combat power.

And where he stood seemed to be the end of this lonely army, a concrete manifestation of the ultimate death due to aging and disability.

After a fierce fight, Qin Linhui seemed to still not feel it was enough.

Xiong Bin's hand reached behind the armor, and a javelin that was originally stuck on the back of the armor was held in Qin Linhui's hand.

Looking closely, the silver-white javelin was covered with bright yellow patterns.

In an instant, extraordinary power poured from the bear's palm into the javelin.

Storm, thunder, gold.

The next moment, with the arm infused with tremendous power, and with the blessing of three different extraordinary powers, the entire javelin soared into the sky as fast as thunder.

In almost an instant, deeper in the battlefield where the unmanned shuttle group could not reach, the real central command center of this isolated army of monsters was located.

The javelin smashed down here at a speed that no monster could react to.

This is where the entire beast group has the strongest fighting power. When you look closely, among the old, weak and sick, there are even dragon-scaled apes, shadow-flame fox wolves and other top predators and dragon-blooded monsters.

But at this moment, when the javelin landed, the huge kinetic energy began to distort the javelin's alloy itself.

When the originally calm bright yellow pattern was destroyed in the distortion, and then when the flowing extraordinary power of thunder further stimulated the distorted bright yellow pattern.

The energy that truly belongs to the extraordinary realm suddenly became uncontrollably violent.

The clear yellow fire storm contained all the extraordinary power that Qin Linhui had infused into it, and even contained the fine and sharp fragments that the javelin itself had shattered into.

The truly severe trauma raged in the heart of the monster army as the storm swept through.

Looking from afar, it can be seen that Qin Linhui is carrying several such "javelins".

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

Amidst the continuous sounds of breaking through the air.

The formation and powerful combat capability of the entire army of monsters were only disrupted at this moment.

soon.

Accompanied by a small group of monsters, they fought even more fiercely.

The remaining remnants of the army quickly left the battlefield, rushed into the dense forests north of Yanshan Mountain, and disappeared in an instant.

In place.

The extraordinary soldiers of the Iron Scale Army did not pursue any further.

On the contrary, they were guarding against the direction of the monster army's retreat, collecting the corpses of their comrades, and dealing with the corpses of the monsters.

Old, weak, sick and disabled monsters are still monsters.

They do not compromise on the nourishment of extraordinary organs.

In fact, precisely because they have survived long enough, it is very likely that sufficiently active extraordinary spiritual seeds are being nurtured in their remains.

Qin Linhui, who was standing aside, did not participate in the cleanup of the battlefield.

He turned back into human form and returned to the city wall in an instant.

On the wide and flat platform, Sun Fudao was bending over at this moment, staring intently with bated breath at a javelin that was exactly the same as the one thrown by Qin Linhui just now.

Sun Fudao was even bold enough to hold a scraper that was shining with cold light and scrape off a lot of powder from the bright yellow patterns on the spear.

There was no fear at all that these bright yellow patterns were the source of the clear yellow flame storm.

Seeing Qin Linhui coming, Sun Fudao looked at him with a frown.

"Uncle Qin, do you feel that the explosive power of the Hunting Fork Type VI is not as strong as before?"

Hearing this, Qin Linhui nodded smoothly. He once infused the Hunting Fork Type 6 javelin with extraordinary strength, and his feelings were more real than Sun Fudao's.

But Sun Fudao has already found the root cause.

"This is not the last batch of military supplies. This is the second batch that was delivered not long ago. The materials used in this batch...are somewhat inferior, and are mixed with a lot of inferior substitute materials.

If I remember correctly, the company that produces the Hunting Fork Type 6 is a subsidiary of the Minghong Zhang family?"

Hearing this, Qin Linhui nodded in understanding.

"So it's the Minghong Zhang family?" He was not as clear about military supplies as Sun Fudao. "That's not surprising. A while ago, the Minghong Zhang family broke the state government's rules and are being held accountable by the Jiang and Tian families."

As he was speaking, Qin Linhui popped up a light screen and showed Sun Fudao the news page.

For a moment, Sun Fudao's brows furrowed even deeper.

"That's all nonsense!"

It was unclear whether this scolding was directed at the Zhang family or included all three families.

"We need to check this batch of military supplies carefully. We are afraid that it is not just this batch of Hunting Fork VI that is cutting corners.

To put it bluntly, with your extraordinary power, Uncle Qin, it doesn't matter if the Hunting Fork Type VI is not equipped with a combat unit.

But there is only one Uncle Qin in the entire Haiquan Pass.

If military supplies are damaged, something big will happen!

Now the demon tribe is still using these remnants of the army to fight us through the winter.

It is only when spring comes that the real main force will begin to test and contact.

There is still a chance to exchange military supplies at Haiquan Pass.

But what about the Zhenyuan Army? They have already started a large-scale battle with the sea monsters on the shore defense line.

I am afraid that... they...

Damn it! They are all making trouble! "
