BXBX NOVEL Chapter 347: forward
Wang Hong led his flying boat and began to inspect the area he was in charge of.
There are five strongholds in the area he is in charge of, each of which is set up on the only way to pass.
Each stronghold has thousands of people stationed, with a commander,
Wang Hong first came to the first stronghold, which has more than 4,000 people and more than 30 foundation-building monks.
Some simple city walls were built around the stronghold, about one foot high, slightly better than nothing.
"Where is your commander? Let him come out to meet me."
Wang Hong and his party got off the flying boat, stood outside the city wall, and shouted at the monks stationed on the city wall.
A moment later, a group of foundation-building monks walked out from behind the city wall. The leader was Fu Li, who had escaped when the Freemasons attacked the valley that day.
After he escaped from hunting that day, he hid and kept a low-key development. Occasionally he robbed some small forces, and his life was quite stable.
It's a pity that with the return of the people of the major forces, an ultimatum was issued to them, the treasure-hunting monks, and they were only given two ways, or die! Either be recruited!
Treasure-hunting monks like them take advantage of the emptiness inside the Immortal Cultivation Realm to rob small and medium-sized forces, but if these big forces really make up their minds to destroy them, they will only die.
Fu Li naturally chose to be recruited like other treasure-hunting monks. Not long after, he was sent here to defend a stronghold.
"It's you!"
Luo Zhongjie, who was behind Wang Hong, recognized Fu Li at a glance. His aura exploded, as if he would strike at the slightest disagreement.
Wang Hong also recognized Fu Li's identity. He had the information provided by Liu Changsheng, and he knew something about the high-level members of the Freemason League.
He had no intention of stopping Luo Zhongjie's behavior. It's okay to get rid of him first, but if it doesn't work, he can kill him directly.
"Fellow Daoists, please forgive me. I was originally a serious family monk, but I joined the Freemasonry when I was under coercion because of my hopelessness.
Later, I was deceived by lard, so I dared to offend fellow Taoists.
Now I have responded to Qing Xuzong's call, take the initiative to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, reform my past, and decide to shed every drop of blood and sweat for the fight against the demon clan! "
Fu Li cautiously apologized to Wang Hong at this moment, and then impassionedly expressed her determination to fight against the monster race.
Now he is really afraid that Wang Hong will kill him in a fit of anger. The Freemasonry has suffered several times from Wang Hong.
The strong impression of the Dongzhou caravan has been deeply implanted in his mind, anyway, he never dared to be an enemy of Wang Hong again.
Besides, even if he is an enemy, the capital he has now is still not enough to look at, and he is not at all sure that he can take advantage of it.
"Okay, since you are now focused on fighting the demon clan, you should guard your stronghold.
From today, be sure to stick to it for a month. During this month, you must not let a monster cross the boundary, otherwise you will be questioned.
How is the situation with the monsters recently? Is there a herd of beasts invading here? "
Wang Hong saw that he knew the current affairs, so he let him go for a while, didn't make things difficult for him, and then asked about the situation on the side of the monster.
"Since we were stationed here, we have intercepted three batches of invading monsters, ranging in number from two thousand to five thousand."
Fu Li breathed a sigh of relief, and finally turned the page.
Then, while introducing the situation here to Wang Hong, he led Wang Hong and others to the central bank.
Wang Hong inspected it and found that the stronghold here was managed by Fu Li in an orderly manner.
Didn't find any problems, he only stopped for a while, and then left here to go to the next stronghold.
The five strongholds that Wang Hong is in charge of are not very far away from each other. If one stronghold is attacked too much, other strongholds can be mobilized for support.
Soon he walked through all five strongholds, and he found that the leaders of these strongholds were all the original treasure-hunting monks.
Seeing Wang Hong's arrival, some of them were as cautious as Fu Li, afraid of being settled by Qiuhou.
And some rely on some strength, coupled with the large number of people, their words seem a little arrogant.
There is a stronghold among them, the commander is named Bai Yikui, leading more than 100 foundation-building monks.
Before this person was recruited, he was also a well-known old thief who led a group of treasure-hunting monks and harmed many small and medium-sized forces.
It made many people hate it, but there was nothing they could do about it.
If it weren't for Qing Xuzong's tough attitude this time, no one would be able to subdue this group of people.
When they were supervised by Qi Shaoqing before, they were well-informed, especially seeing Qi Shaoqing leading a powerful formation of a hundred foundation-building monks, Bai Yikui did not dare to make mistakes.
Now it was replaced by Wang Hong, especially seeing that none of the subordinates led by Wang Hong were disciples of the Qingxu Sect, and felt that Wang Hong should have no status in the Qingxu Sect.
It is the nature of these treasure-hunting monks to bully the weak and fear the strong, so Bai Yikui naturally has no reverence for Wang Hong.
Wang Hong has no plans to care about it for the time being, as long as these people can honestly hold their stronghold, he has nothing to say.
Because the real beast tide has not yet arrived, these are just monster beasts driven by the beast tide. The number is not particularly large, and the scale is not particularly large.
During the next ten days or so, Wang Hong had a very easy time. Only a few small numbers of monsters came and were easily repelled.
Taking advantage of his free time, Wang Hong urged several strongholds to build the city walls higher, the higher the better.
When the beast horde really arrives, many monsters can jump on this low defensive city wall with just one leap.
After more than ten days of hard work, the walls of various strongholds have been raised and thickened a lot.
On this day, Wang Hong was at a stronghold, where a group of more than 2,000 monsters were about to attack the stronghold.
At this time, he suddenly received a warning from a commander named Feng Chang, saying that a large group of monsters were approaching his stronghold.
Wang Hong led his men to control the flying boat and rushed towards Feng Chang's stronghold.
When he arrived, he saw a black herd of beasts a mile away, and at the same time there was a flying monster like a dark cloud in the sky.
Roughly estimated, the total number of this batch of monsters is at least tens of thousands. Judging from this posture, it should be that the vanguard of the beast tide has arrived.
The total number of people in this stronghold is no more than 5,000, and the foundation building is no more than 40 people. The strength difference between the two sides is too great.
"Take a few people, and go to other strongholds to send reinforcements."
Wang Hong quickly arranged to Luo Zhongjie, and Luo Zhongjie left quickly after getting the order.
"Ling Shuai! Ling Xue! Now let the two of you command the flying boat.
You lead the remaining 80 Qi training team members to drive the flying boat and face the birds in the air from the front. "
Because the birds are faster than the crawling monsters, they have already flown to the front of the beast horde.
Before the war has started, we can take the opportunity to destroy it.
"Feng Chang, you lead the original forty foundation-building monks in the stronghold, and the imperial weapon is lifted into the air, serving as the right wing of the flying boat."
"All foundation-building team members obey the order! Follow me in a while and serve as the left wing of the airship."
