Gu Tianhua looked at the two of them with sarcasm on his face, "Please stand up and speak, my lords. I am not worthy of your gift."

The two men became more frightened after hearing his tone. The other party was now their last straw. If they let go, their lives would surely be in danger.

"General, we also have our own difficulties." After saying that, the two men rushed to defend themselves, each one feeling more aggrieved than the other.

Seeing that they had reached this point and were still trying to defend themselves, Gu Tianhua became furious.

"Someone come here." Gu Tianhua shouted outside the tent.

"General."

"Send the two gentlemen out in a good way." Without waiting for the two to speak, he added, "If the two gentlemen have any grievances, you can write to the emperor and appeal. There is no need to waste your breath here!"

Shi Yangzhuo and Li Weide complained bitterly. If the emperor could listen to explanations, why would they come all the way here?

Just as the guards were about to attack, Shi Yangzhu shouted in despair, "It was Prince Gong who told us to disobey his orders!"

Gu Tianhua raised his hand to stop the guard's action, and looked at the two men with a stern look in his eyes, "Why did Prince Gong let you do this?"

At this point, he could only reveal everything. Shi Yangzhuo hung his head helplessly and said with his eyes closed: "Prince Gong thought that this battle would be lost, so he made an appointment with the Crown Prince of Qianhan Kingdom in advance..."

——

Gu Lingze has been absent-minded these past two days, and even the thick-skinned Gu Feirui could see it.

At this moment, Gu Lingze was in a daze again with the chopsticks in his hand. Gu Xiuyi glanced at Zhao Chengmo, who shook his head expressionlessly.

"Lingze, are you tired of the food in the military camp and have no appetite?" Gu Feirui asked with concern.

Gu Lingze blinked a few times before coming back to his senses, "Oh, no, I'm just not very hungry."

Gu Feirui nodded and continued eating, but Zhao Chengmo and Gu Xiuyi knew that this was just an excuse.

"I have something important to report to the commander!"

Gu Tianhua heard the noise outside the tent, looked at the two people who were still kneeling, and said loudly: "Let Deputy General Zhang come in."

Deputy General Zhang ran in sweating profusely, and said anxiously: "Commander! There is movement outside the city!"

During this period, some captured soldiers from the Four-Nation Alliance took the opportunity to escape, but Gu Tianhua ordered them not to chase them.

They just ran away, it was just a small group of people, and it actually saved food for the army.

In the early hours of yesterday morning, several hundred people took the opportunity to escape, but unexpectedly they came back screaming and howling just now.

These people said in unison that they had encountered a large army halfway, and that it was now moving in this direction with great momentum.

After hearing this, Gu Tianhua's face changed and he walked directly out of the tent with Lieutenant General Zhang.

Gu Xiuyi and the others also heard the news, and the four of them immediately rushed towards the city wall.

"Did the deserters tell us how many troops the other side had?"

Deputy General Zhang replied anxiously: "They said the army was so densely packed that you couldn't see the end of it."

At this time, four people also ran up to the city wall.

Gu Lingze leaned against the city wall and looked into the distance, then he crushed the blue bricks in his hand.

"Let everyone outside the city retreat and close the city gates quickly!" After saying that, he jumped down from the city wall.

Everyone screamed and looked down, only to find that Gu Lingze had disappeared.

At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew in the air and the sky became overcast. Everyone felt something was wrong and hurriedly made arrangements according to Gu Lingze's request.

But even if the remaining troops of Chonglan and Xianyu were arranged in the other two cities, Shucheng still could not accommodate so many people.

Gu Tianhua had no choice but to let others temporarily guard in front of the city gate.

The deputy generals integrated their troops and stood ready, anxiously awaiting the appearance of Gu Lingze.

The sky was already covered with dark clouds, with lightning and thunder heard from time to time, and everyone felt a little uneasy.

When Gu Lingze appeared again, before anyone else could speak, he said to Gu Xiuyi with a serious face: "Brother, quickly go to the city to find the incense burner, incense sticks, and the wooden table for four animals."

"Cheng Mo, take all the Xuanyi troops and wait for me ten miles in front of the city!"

"Dad, tell all the soldiers to stay where they are and not to move without orders!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole person disappeared again.

When Zhao Chengmo led the Black Cloth Army to the place he mentioned, he saw Gu Lingze standing on an altar.

The black-clothed soldiers looked at each other in confusion, not knowing when this thing had appeared here.

Only Zhao Chengmo knew that the altar under Gu Lingze's feet was the one in the secret realm.

At this moment, Gu Lingze's attire was different from the past. He wore a golden crown of the rising sun on his head and a black robe with a jade belt. He looked solemn and dignified.

Gu Xiuyi quickly drove the carriage to deliver the things, and Gu Lingze asked him to call Gu Tianhua and Gu Feirui over.

"Cheng Mo, pass the order down, have all the Black Clothes soldiers form a column of twenty-eight people."

The order was quickly passed down. During this time, Gu Lingze had been using cinnabar to draw a formation in front of the altar.

After finishing the drawing, Gu Lingze cut his palm with the Mo Shuang Sword, then clenched his fist and dripped blood onto the twenty-eight array bases.

The twenty-eight array bases were connected to the four array centers in numbers of four and seven. As soon as Gu Tianhua and the others arrived, Gu Lingze asked the four of them to stand inside.

Then he found the six guards of the Black Clothes Army and ordered the first team of 28 people to be distributed on the base of the formation.

Then he told them that they had to replace people every half an incense stick of time and let the other team take over. The six guards nodded nervously.

After everything was ready, he flew into the air and looked at the neatly arranged black-clothed soldiers behind him.

"Black Clothes Army, listen up. From now on, you are responsible for the lives of millions of people in Border Town. You must not take it lightly or carelessly."

"yes!"

Then he looked at the four people below steadily, "Dad, Chengmo, Big Brother, Second Brother, you must not step out of the formation."

The four looked at him firmly and nodded.

Gu Lingze turned around, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Wherever the evil soldiers pass, no living souls remain.

Qin Chuhan actually had the Nine Nether Yin Soldier Talisman in his hand, which was something Gu Lingze had never thought of.

The North has been a battlefield for hundreds of years, and there are countless soldiers buried here.

Now Qin Chuhan will use the Yin Soldier Talisman in his hand to mobilize these one million Yin soldiers from the underworld, which will surely flatten the northern border. All the living souls will be taken as sacrifices and fall into the underworld.

Shi Yangzhu and Li Weide had wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but they were caught by Ye Zhixue in the first place.

Then he took the two men directly to the city wall and kept them under his own watch.

The two of them couldn't help but feel angry and frightened, and kept cursing Ye Zhixue in their hearts.

The sound of horse hooves rumbled in the distance, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

It was noon, but the sky was dark and the wind was getting stronger, with sand and rocks flying everywhere.

Gu Lingze opened his eyes, stood on the altar, and lit incense.
