Tianhuo Dynasty, Lingnan County.

This is a very old castle, and it is said that the castle was built thousands of years ago. Before the opening of the Tianhuo Dynasty, the Lingnan County had already existed.

And this is also the main city of this desolate land in the south of the Heavenly Fire Dynasty. With this city as the center, it fully commands twenty-three county seats, which is a lot more than the fifteen county seats in Qinghe County.

However, today, what are the 23 counties in Lingnan, that is the old statement.

Because now, the barbarian army has successfully conquered sixteen cities on this desolate land!

Most of the people in this ancient city have also begun to flee from here. Because in their opinion, it is estimated that it will not be long before the entire Lingnan County will fall under the iron hooves of the barbarian army.

And the highest official in the city, the county guard, when he learned that a large number of people in the city began to flee from here. He didn't send his army to stop it, he just watched silently.

That's right, just silently watching......

At this moment, it is early in the morning.

As the county guard of Lingnan County, Bai Zhen was still standing on the wall of Lingnan County, silently looking down at the bottom of the city wall, he had been standing like this all night.

And under the city wall, there are a continuous number of people who are walking out from the Lingnan county. Moreover, they are also carrying large packages, and it seems that they are not ready to come back.

"Even the people in my Lingnan County don't believe that we can defeat the barbarian army. It seems that we ourselves, in the face of the upcoming war, I am afraid that there is not much hope for victory. ”

Looking at the people who kept fleeing from the city, Bai Zhen, who was wearing a gray robe, also closed his eyes slightly and began to sigh like this.

Even if he is the county guard of a county, he has the triple realm of the Tianwu Realm, and he also has an army of more than 40,000 people in his hands.

But at this moment, looking at the scene in front of him, he was inevitably a little sad. For the next war with the barbarian army, there is not much hope.

And looking at the county guard who was so sad, all of a sudden, many soldiers immediately persuaded the county guard.

"Lord Commander, Xiu must sigh. Our Lingnan County is an ancient city that has existed for thousands of years, and the height of the city wall is as high as eighteen zhang, and it takes a lot of time for those barbarian soldiers to climb the city wall. ”

"Besides, my city currently has plenty of combat readiness resources. Bows and arrows, rolling logs, and grass and grass, all of which are enough for us for at least a month. ”

"And in addition to having so many combat resources, we also have more than 40,000 iron-clad brothers, in the face of those barbarians, we are afraid of hair!"

......

The voices of persuasion immediately resounded on the city wall.

Many of the sergeants who heard these voices also cheered up instantly, as if they saw a little hope.

However, these people did not contain Bai Zhen.

He just nodded silently and didn't say anything more. It was as if at this moment, his heart had fallen to a low point, and he didn't even want to speak.

And the reason why he is so low in his heart is, of course, for a reason.

"There are sufficient resources for war readiness, and more than 40,000 iron-clad brothers are defending the city? In front of an army of 100,000 barbarians, all this was just a joke. ”

"They don't know what kind of barbarian army we are about to face......

Because in his own heart, he knew very well how many troops the barbarian army that broke through Zhennan Pass this time was on top of their Lingnan County.

......

Time passed slowly, and after two hours, the people in the city were almost gone.

At this time, Bai Zhen, who had a sad face on the city wall, finally gave the order to close the city gate.

"Squeak Squeak......"

The city gate, which was five feet high, began to slowly close under the joint efforts of dozens of sergeants.

And at this moment, Bai Zhen, the county guard of Lingnan County, looked at the slowly closing city gate, and in the corner of his eyes, a trace of ruddy appeared.

Because he vaguely guessed that after this city gate was closed today, when it was opened next time, I was afraid that it would be the time when the city of their Lingnan County would be broken!

Although his Bai Zhen's realm is two small realms higher than Han Qingxue's, his mentality is already inferior to that of the younger generation.

Now, he is more than 70 years old, and in terms of ambition, he has long gone.

As for the battle against the barbarian army, with such a big gap between the two sides, of course he didn't have full confidence.

......

However, at this moment, the gate of this Lingnan county town was about to be completely closed.

"Bang !!"

An incomparably powerful aura explosion resounded between heaven and earth in an instant.

Immediately after, after this extremely powerful aura explosion, a roar that was even more shocking than before immediately caused a sensation in the entire Lingnan County City.

"Lu Gong of Qinghe County, come to help Lingnan County in a battle!!"

And after this roar, a group of troops already lined up wearing black armor, and they also walked towards Lingnan County with heavy steps quickly.

"Tread, tread, tread, step ......"

The entire land adjacent to Lingnan County fell into absolute silence at this time, as if even the sound of breathing had temporarily disappeared.

The only sound that exists is the footsteps of the army outside!

"Think...... I can't imagine that at this time, there will be people who will come to support me and other Lingnan counties!"

"By the way, where is that army? Wearing black armor, and although there are not many people, they have such a strong momentum!"

After a long period of time, Bai Zhen finally reacted.

At that time before, even he, as the county guard of Lingnan County, felt deeply shocked, and he didn't react for a while.

"Lord Commander, they said it earlier. They are from the army under the command of Lu Gong of Qinghe County, and they are ...... He's here to help us fight against the barbarian army!"

At this time, a partial general beside Bai Zhen immediately reported to him.

However, even when he reported like this, he spontaneously felt a deep shock, and it was hard to believe that Lu Chen and the others on the other side had come to help them defend the city.

"Who is this person, why have I never heard of this person? It seems that the county guard of Qinghe County is not surnamed Lu. ”

Listening to this unfamiliar name, Bai Zhen immediately felt a trace of doubt.

But even if he was a little confused now, he had to do something about the army that had just arrived here.

"Come, open the gates. All the soldiers will follow me out of the city to meet the army under the command of Lu Gong!"

Suddenly, an order instantly resounded above the city wall.

Then Bai Zhen personally led a group of soldiers down the city wall, preparing to welcome the arrival of Lu Chen's army.

However, his behavior was immediately discovered by Lu Chen and the others.

"Hmm, my lord, at the gate of Lingnan County, there is a Heavenly Martial Realm powerhouse waiting there!"

Xu Shu, who was riding a war horse and standing on Lu Chen's side, immediately said to Lu Chen.

"Oh, the powerhouse of the Heavenly Martial Realm is waiting in person, we are just an army of more than 25,000 people, can we use such a big scene?"

"Brother Xiongxin, what are you talking about, of course you can use it, didn't you see that my lord of my family personally led the army here? The powerhouse of the Tianwu Realm in the Lingnan county town opposite must of course personally greet him in order to show his respect for my lord of my family. ”

At this time, Shan Xiongxin and Wang Ben didn't think it was too big, and they just made such a joke to Lu Chen.

"Hahaha, it seems that this Lingnan County is much more courteous than Qinghe County. ”

And at this moment, Lu Chen immediately smiled.

Then, he directly led the army behind him and strode towards the city gate.
