Chapter 755: Chapter 306: Rebel Collaborators, Chaos and Opportunism, Long Mountain Changes Hands
“Hu Zi has been captured by Li Tiancheng. Only the leader can save him. I must ask the leader to rescue him. After struggling to make it through, I can’t let Hu Zi die!”
At this moment, Yang Zhong’s mind was constantly repeating this sentence.
Just like the discussion among the Cloud Dragon Army soldiers below, the Great Xia’s victory over Long Mountain this time is almost irreplaceable, thanks to the roles played by him and Li Hu.
Four days ago, on the night of June 22, among the more than five thousand men who came from Zhaoyang, there was a Cold Resistance Level soldier named Liu Ying, who approached him and Li Hu and clarified Great Xia’s plan to attack Long Mountain.
At that time, Yang Zhong was extremely nervous, but thanks to Li Hu’s bravery, he realized it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and seized it quickly.
With Liu Ying’s cooperation of more than three hundred men, they first infiltrated the dungeon, met the loyal prisoners of the Changning, Song Yuan, and Yucheng families, and successfully communicated with these people in advance. Then, later, in the first half of the night today, when Great Xia began attacking from the eastern front to create chaos in the camp, they released the people in the dungeon.
Once these individuals successfully incited most of the Earth-digging Realm members from the three families, Li Hu led them directly to the north side and, according to the pre-established plan, opened the north Iron Stake Wall to let the Xia Army in.
The Xia Army’s frontal direction was a feigned attack tonight. The elite Cloud Dragon Army had been stationed outside the north side, and seeing movement inside, they immediately charged in.
Things certainly weren’t that smooth. As soon as their large forces moved, before they could lower the two northern iron stakes by a few meters, they were discovered by Li Tiancheng.
Fortunately, Xia Hong acted in time!
Even though more than an hour has passed, as Yang Zhong recalls Xia Hong’s kick that bent the Five-cornered Iron Pile, he couldn’t help but swallow, his pupils full of shock and admiration.
His only worry now is Li Hu, who was captured by Li Tiancheng while they were opening the door for the Xia Army.
They have accomplished such a great feat and have finally made it through, seeing the prospect of going to Great Xia for a better life; he absolutely cannot let anything happen to Li Hu.
“The leader summoned me, surely to reward me with something. I don’t want anything, just ask him to save Li Hu; the leader will surely agree!”
He was with the seven families’ Earth-digging Realm on the battlefield and received a notification from Peng Bo, stating Xia Hong wanted to see him, so he was waiting here.
Just now, Xia Hong chopped off one of Li Tiancheng’s arms, repelled the Cold Resistance Levels from Long Mountain, and let the outer armies from Zhaoyang, White Abyss, Xiling, and Dongkang rush into the base to join forces with the three families’ rebels before directly entering this tall building, and hasn’t come out since.
The Cloud Dragon Army should be resting below now, including guarding Xia Hong for cultivation, as they played the biggest role in just breaking through the Longyou Iron Wall, with significant casualties.
Currently, the tens of thousands of troops on the battlefield are commanded by Hou Jing, Chen Yingyuan, and other Cold Resistance Levels. Although the battle hasn’t ended, the result is pretty much determined.
Despite worrying about Li Hu’s safety, Yang Zhong didn’t dare to breathe heavily now because he could feel that Xia Hong inside was probably in secluded cultivation, reaching some critical moment.
Hu…Hu…Hu……Hu……
Even through the wall, from Xia Hong’s increasingly distant and lengthy breathing sound, he could sense his immense aura. And as the breathing sound grew longer, that aura was constantly rising, constantly expanding.
“Too strong; I’ve already broken through the thirty-thousand-jin limit, yet in front of this aura, it’s still like being a child. The leader’s strength ultimately…”
Hu!
The breathing sounds in the room suddenly diminished, Yang Zhong sharply looked up, only to find Liu Yuan and Peng Bo in front already looked up before him, staring into the room.
The leader must have finished cultivating!
“Yang Zhong, right! You and Li Hu did well this time. When we return to Xia City, I’ll heavily reward both of you.”
Hearing Xia Hong’s voice from inside, Yang Zhong immediately bowed and knelt, speaking with a worried look, “Yang Zhong doesn’t want any rewards, just asks the leader to rescue my brother Li Hu. Not to hide from the leader, releasing everyone in the dungeon and inciting the Yucheng families were all Li Hu’s ideas, I was just assisting him.”
Hu……
Just as a stream of air hit his face, with his head down on the ground, Yang Zhong noticed a pair of pitch-black Beast Skin Boots in front of him, realizing Xia Hong was standing before him, he pressed his head lower.
Xia Hong, who had just walked out of the room, hadn’t fully calmed his excitement. After slightly calming down, he looked down at Yang Zhong lying on the ground, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, lightly raised his hand, signaling:
“Rise! Rest assured, Li Tiancheng won’t kill him! You all are great contributors; when we return to Xia City, I will evaluate and reward you two together!”
Although Yang Zhong was somewhat puzzled, he still obeyed the order and lifted his head. When he saw Xia Hong close up, his admiration and fervor almost overflowed from his eyes, he couldn’t help but bow his head in a respectful greeting to Xia Hong: “Subordinate thanks the leader!”
Anyone who has witnessed Xia Hong’s strength firsthand would find it hard not to show expression similar to Yang Zhong’s, just like Liu Yuan, who was already very familiar with Xia Hong, including the much older Peng Bo was also eager.
Xia Hong at this moment didn’t have the mood to look at the expressions on Liu Yuan and the others’ faces. Seeing through the window that the western army had already reached below the main building, the excitement he had just calmed down began to rise again.
They actually broke through Long Mountain!
