"What!??The expeditionary army of the Shenwu Kingdom has invaded the Wild Elephant Country!"

In the imperial capital of the Fengyun Dynasty, Emperor Xu Minglong had just taken a patch of medicinal soup and was about to go to bed when he received this news that shocked him extremely much.

"Yuan Qing, when did this happen?"

Xu Minglong looked at the tall young man holding the medicine bowl beside him and asked.

This young man, named Xu Yuanqing, was the second prince of the Fengyun Dynasty, and was usually very loved by the Chinese military generals of the Dynasty, and was one of the strong contenders for the position of the next emperor of the Fengyun Dynasty.

"Father Qi, this news was also received by Erchen just now, according to the secret letter from the Wild Elephant King, because sixty percent of the troops in his country were sent out to attack the Shenwu Kingdom, the domestic defense force was too empty, so it was exploited by the Shenwu Expeditionary Army, and now half of the territory has fallen into the hands of the Shenwu Expeditionary Army!"

Xu Yuanqing said with an extremely indifferent expression, as if he was describing a very ordinary trivial matter.

"Ahh

Xu Minglong's face was full of anger, and he hated Su Fan to death.

The reason why he was so angry was entirely because the united armies of the various kingdoms had been repeatedly defeated in attacking the Shenwu Kingdom in the past few days.

Under the concerted defense of the Shenwu people, the united army attacked hard for several days, but they didn't even break through the gate of the Shenwu country!

Not only that, but the casualties of these combined armies were also extremely heavy, almost losing more than 20% of their troops.

You know, this is a combined army of twelve kingdoms, each with nearly a million troops involved.

The loss of more than 20 percent of the army means that nearly 3 million soldiers are buried in a foreign land.

As for how many troops the Shenwu Kingdom lost, Xu Minglong did not know.

But he knew very well in his heart that the Shenwu Kingdom, as a small country, could not exceed one million people even if he took out all the troops of the whole country for defense.

What's more, a few days ago, the Shenwu Kingdom also sent an army of 700,000 people to the Bird Country in the north.

In other words, at this time, in the territory of Shenwu Kingdom, the number of soldiers who can pick up arms will definitely not exceed 500,000!

With less than 500,000 troops, against a combined army of more than 10 million people and being able to remain undefeated for several days, the potential of the Shenwu Kingdom made Xu Minglong feel a deep sense of crisis.

Xu Minglong knew that if Su Fan didn't die and the Shenwu Kingdom didn't die, even if he went to the Yellow Spring in his life, he would definitely die without turning a blind eye.

"Yuan Qing, you wrote two secret letters for your father to the kings of the Water Snake Country and the Lingpeng Kingdom, ordering the two of them to quickly raise a million elite soldiers to reinforce the Wild Elephant Kingdom, remember not to delay!"

Xu Minglong instructed Xu Yuanqing.

Xu Minglong thought very clearly, with the current grim form, only by trying his best to temporarily delay the advance of the Shenwu Expeditionary Force, and wait until the holy envoy sent by the Holy Dynasty killed Su Fan, this crisis could be completely solved.

"Sons obey orders!"

Xu Yuanqing replied calmly, since Xu Minglong fell ill, things like writing secret decrees on behalf of him were no longer commonplace for him.

"Okay, go down, my father is going to rest!"

"Yes!

......

At the same time, the palace of the king of Jinmu, inside the king's bedroom.

The dormitory was filled with a pungent bloody aura everywhere, Qin Yingpan sat on the bed with his eyes closed and cultivated, his hands kept flipping different gestures, and between the exhalation and inhalation of his mouth, a sound like thunder came from his body.

After a long time, he trembled slightly, and there was a sound like a bang in his muscles, and the clothes on his body suddenly exploded, only to see that the skin of his whole body was crimson, and his muscles were absorbing a large amount of bloody qi in the dormitory between expansion and contraction, and the breath that erupted from his body was also soaring rapidly!

When Qin Ying had absorbed all the bloody qi in the dormitory, his breathing began to slowly become stable, and the crimson color on his god was gradually fading.

He slowly opened his eyes, and there was a flash of blood in his eyes, and he heard him say with a little regret in his tone: "Hey, there is only one point left, and this king can break through to the second level of the Soul Emperor." ”

"However, with the current strength of this king, even if all the monks in this Divine Martial King City are slaughtered, they may not be able to complete this last breakthrough!"

"The essence blood of the Soul King Realm cultivators has no too high effect on the improvement of this king's cultivation, if you want to continue to improve this cultivation, the best source of essence blood is those Soul Emperor Realm cultivators!"

At this point, Qin Ying suddenly raised his head and looked ahead, his crimson bloody eyes kept flickering, as if the blood-colored starlight was disillusioned: "Su Fan, whether you can attract those soul emperors for this king depends on your ability!"

......

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed.

In these five days, the Shenwu army almost swept through more than ninety percent of the territory of the Wild Elephant Country.

In order to more effectively resist the attack of the Shenwu army, the Wild Elephant King had to order the army to retract all the defensive lines and gather all the remaining troops in the Wild Elephant Country to Linshui Pass, thirty miles outside the royal capital.

Linshui Pass is the last pass before entering the capital of the Wild Elephant King, and it is also the last line of defense to resist the Shenwu army.

And once the Shenwu army breaks through the Linshui Pass, then the entire Wild Elephant Kingdom will have no available soldiers, and then the Shenwu army can drive straight into the Wild Elephant King Capital.

In the early morning of this day, several Shenwu armies that attacked the cities of the Wild Elephant Country assembled outside the Linshui Pass.

"What a long river!"

At this time, Su Fan was standing on the bank of a river, enjoying the surrounding scenery.

Linshui Pass, the reason why it got this name, is because in the south outside the pass, there is a river about 300 miles wide, and the Shenwu army wants to break through the Linshui Pass, the first thing to cross is this big river.

"Lord Qiqi Martial God, this big river is called the Giant Elephant River, and it is rumored that its overall appearance resembles a giant elephant lying on its side on the ground, so the width of this big river is so long!"

Zhang Chenghu's voice came from behind him, he looked at the giant elephant river in front of him, let out a long sigh, and said: "Lord Martial God, it seems that we can't cross this giant elephant river in the past few days, and now we can only cross the three hundred miles of rivers and moats by ordering all the soldiers to cut down nearby trees and temporarily build ships!"

"Oh?" Su Fan's expression moved when he heard this, and then he asked, "How long will it take to build this ship?"

"It may take five to seven days!" Zhang Chenghu thought for a while and said: "This time to attack the Wild Elephant Country, our army has received a lot of surrenders, and now the total number of soldiers in the whole army has exceeded 2.3 million, and if you want to get a boat to carry so many people, you have to build at least more than 100,000 ships!"

Five days to seven days?

Su Fan's heart lit up, if he had to wait here for five days, he could use this time to do some tasks issued in the system village.
