Chapter Thirty-Eight: Preparations for War in the South

Ye Gucheng was about to continue to ask, but the palace guard hurriedly came.

"Commander Qiyu, Xiangguo asks to see. ”

Ye Gucheng's heart sank suddenly. "Xuan. ”

"Yes!" the palace guard walked away quickly.

Soon, Zhang Yi came anxiously and hurriedly, glanced at Li Yue'er deeply, and saluted towards Ye Gucheng: "Commander Qiyu, as soon as the minister left the palace, he received an urgent report from the south, and the matter is very important, so he has to report it immediately!"

It's really the South!

Ye Gucheng's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Speak!"

"Some time ago, I also expelled a person from Chaocheng, an adventurer, the reason for the expulsion was that he looked crazy, and he kept saying that the dead were resurrected and killed everywhere, and the people talked about it, and it reached the ears of General Xuanyuan Jianhong, and the governor was grim, and personally led an army of 150,000 to return to the city. ”

Ye Gucheng's face changed, what Yue'er said, it was all Yingling!

"Now, General Xuanyuan Jianhong replied to disperse the people in the city on the grounds of military training, but there is a shortage of silver weapons in the army, General Xuanyuan asked for weapons to be provided quickly, and the minister is worried that if it is really an undead army attacking, there are not enough weapons in the army, and it is difficult to defend the city, and once the city is lost, the southern border will be wide open, and the kingdom will be in danger!"

"Order the Manufacturing Bureau, all silver weapons are to be supplied to the south first, how much, how much to supply. ”

"Yes!"

Ye Gucheng saw Zhang Yi retreating, and couldn't help but look at Li Yue'er.

"Brother-in-law, it's time for us to go to the south!" Li Yue'er looked flat, as if she was saying something insignificant.

I don't know why, Ye Gucheng suddenly felt that Li Yue'er had changed! Although it was still that innocent and bewitching face, there was an invisibly more mature charm, and such a Li Yue'er, he was very unaccustomed to it, he still liked the innocent, kind, and smiling Li Yue'er. "Yue'er, you... What's wrong?"

Li Yue'er smiled softly and said softly: "It's nothing, Yue'er just grew up!"

is a simple sentence, but Li Yue'er has an indescribable sadness, she has indeed grown up!

Through the golden dragon, Li Yue'er saw everything that happened in the future, although the time was short, but deep in her heart it was like having a time and space journey, and her mind was fully opened, which was an abnormal growth, but it was also growth!

Just when Ye Gucheng was in a daze, Li Yue'er had already climbed onto the back of the golden dragon, stretched out her hand, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, let's go!"

Ye Gucheng came back to his senses and silently stretched out his hand.

The golden dragon roared, carrying the two of them on their backs and quickly taking off into the air.

Outside the Taihe Palace, Li Yueli held the child and stared blankly at the sky, a trace of worry flashed in the depths of her eyes, Ye Gucheng's abnormality, she had already seen it in her eyes, although she didn't know what was happening in the kingdom, but her intuition told her that it must be very serious.

The soaring continued, Ye Gucheng gently hugged his slender waist, felt the itching of his hair brushing his face, and felt very uncomfortable in his heart, in the past, it was always himself who sat in the front, but now, the position was reversed! As if thinking of something, he said close to his ear and cheek: "Yue'er, what else do you see? Can the southern border be kept? What will be the future of the kingdom?"

Li Yue'er didn't seem to hear clearly, and maintained the silence she deserved, but a trace of pain flashed in the depths of her eyes.

The ending of the southern border, she knows very well, and the city is lost, and the soldiers of Xuanyuan Jianhong are all wiped out!

But now it's different!

She saw it, so she wanted to change, as long as she still held the city, the ending would definitely be variable, and what she had to do now was to produce variables.

In the south, it is still facing the city.

The city was in chaos, and the people were filled with righteous indignation, and in their opinion, it was more likely that someone in the army was trying to rebel if there was no way to train troops in a city.

Of course, no matter how much people resisted, they could only be forced to move away in the face of the army of Bing Gosensen.

Castle Lord's Mansion.

"General Xuanyuan, what do you want?" The city lord was extremely angry, ignoring the soldiers on one side, took two steps forward, and said in a loud voice: "Do you want to rebel like this?"

Xuanyuan Jianhong's expression was cold, and he said indifferently: "This is the commander's order, and the Chaocheng army has officially taken over, and I also ask the city lord to evacuate immediately." ”

"Fart. The city lord roared angrily: "If the commander has this order, why doesn't this official know?"

"Take it!"

The guards quickly stepped forward and grabbed the city lord.

"Xuanyuan Jianhong, if you dare to commit treason, the commander can't spare you. ”

"Hold it down. Xuanyuan Jianhong was too lazy to continue to ramble.

The guards immediately dragged the roaring city lord back.

In the days that followed, the army carried out a carpet expulsion of civilians.

For Xuanyuan Jianhong's military order, many soldiers did not understand, after all, if it was really a military training, there were a lot of vacant seats on the outskirts of the city, how could they drive out the people of the city and seize their homes, fortunately, out of obedience and no casualties, there was no chaos in the army.

Finally, after more than ten days of dispersal, there was no more civilians in the city, even the prison was empty, and the simple city defense work was completed, and a ditch several meters wide and deep across the entire city wall appeared under the city wall, and the city gate was not excavated to facilitate the march.

On the city wall, a majestic figure stood solemnly, his eyes were sharp, and his eyes were focused, in the vast mountains of 100,000.

A general quickly appeared on the city wall, looked around, and quickly fixed on the proud majestic posture, and walked forward quickly.

"See General. ”

"Speak. ”

"The subordinates have already told several surrounding cities that they can take in the people who are still in the city. ”

"Good. ”

"It's just... There is a serious shortage of silver weapons in the army, and I wonder when the commander-in-chief will deliver the missing weapons?"

"It should be soon! Xiangguo replied that the weapon was on its way!"

"But the subordinates are afraid that the time will be too late, and most of the scouts sent out have not returned, and the subordinates are worried... ”

"Worried about what?"

"Please forgive the general, my subordinates are afraid that the army of the undead mentioned by the commander is approaching, at that time, if there are not enough weapons, how can our army defend it?"

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it. Xuanyuan Jianhong glanced coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Kingdom, there is no way out. ”

"Obey!" The general stood solemnly, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Now, the army is talking about why the army is here, and there are many soldiers who question why they must use sterling silver products.

Xuanyuan Jianhong was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Tell the soldiers that this general has received a secret report that a large number of monsters will break in soon, these monsters are more unique, and special weapons are needed to kill them. ”

"Yes!" the general quickly left.

Xuanyuan Jianhong glanced at the city guards on the left and right, and said indifferently: "Did you all hear it?"

"I hear you!" spoke a young crossbowman, but his face didn't look very good.

"Keep it in mind. Xuanyuan Jianhong continued to talk about looking at the mountains in the distance, the mountains were quiet, and the silence was terrifying.

"Yes!"

The city guards were silent.

I don't know how long it took, but a soldier said timidly: "General... What is an army of the undead?"

"Dead things! a group of things that should be dead, but they are alive on this continent!And such a monster is coming towards the kingdom!"

The soldiers suddenly changed color and looked at Xuanyuan Jianhong blankly.

"So, soldiers, this time, we must defend it no matter what, otherwise, the kingdom will cease to exist, and we, and even our relatives, will become one of these monsters! That is a thousand times worse than death, because our souls will never rest in peace!"

"Yes!"

Even though it was only a vague concept, everyone felt creepy.

"General Ben doesn't want this to spread in the army. Xuanyuan Jianhong turned to leave.

"Yes!"

The crescent moon, like a silver scythe, stretched out from the swarthy peak, and the moonlight flowed, through the shade of the trees, dyeing the two sitting in silence with a layer of silver.

The campfire crackled, and it was the unusual sound of oil dripping on the grill.

It was a wild boar roasted, which was huge and fragrant, and the golden dragon who was lying on the side was so hungry that it drooled.

Seeing this, Ye Gucheng chuckled, cut off a large piece of ripe and threw it towards the golden dragon.

The golden dragon hurriedly opened his mouth and swallowed it in three or two times, and then stared at the two people who were eating with anticipation.

Li Yue'er eats with a rare quiet elegance, which is not her previous style.

Ye Gucheng silently looked at the beautiful side face, with mixed feelings in his heart, in the past, he hoped that Li Yue'er would really grow up countless times, but now that he has grown, it seems extremely disobedient.

Li Yue'er may have noticed the sight on the side, slowly looked sideways, and chuckled: "Why does my brother-in-law keep staring at Yue'er?"

For a moment, Ye Gucheng was almost lost in his smile, came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and said slowly: "Yue'er, you haven't answered your brother-in-law's question yet, you... Do you see the future of the kingdom?"

"I can't see it! Although Yue'er's magic is unprecedentedly powerful, she can't see the future of the kingdom, but Yue'er knows that the southern border will definitely be able to hold on, and her brother-in-law will definitely become the greatest person in the world!" Li Yue'er's smile remained unchanged, and her eyes were also tender like water.

Although Ye Gucheng was a little disappointed, he was still relieved to know that the southern border could be defended! He didn't dare to be 100% sure that Li Yue'er really saw the future, but after witnessing the miracle created by the other party, his subconscious was still willing to believe in this kind of mysterious statement, which was better than saying that the southern border would be lost and the kingdom would fall, which made him fearful.

The process of eating was very long, perhaps because of their own concerns, and both of them chose to eat quietly. Of course, most of the food goes into the golden dragon's mouth.

The next day, the dragon roared again and again, and the golden dragon soared into the sky again and rushed straight to the city.

Also towards the city.

"Report!" the scout roared all the way into the city.

Xuanyuan Jianhong's expression was solemn, and he stepped forward quickly.

"General Qiyu, a hundred miles ahead, their own strange beasts appeared, the number could not be determined, Xuanyuan Li, Sun Bufei and others could not escape, and they had already died in their duties. ”

It's a beast instead of an army of undead! You know, if it's a herd of beast corpses, it's far more difficult than humans!

Xuanyuan Jianhong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Order, all arms are ready to fight." ”

"Yes!"

The generals solemnly received the order.

"General. The scout swallowed his heart and continued, "There are still many birds among these beasts, but... The subordinates look at their strange shapes... Like... Dead things ... ”

"A hundred heavy crossbows were left outside the city, and the rest were all on the city wall. Xuanyuan Jianhong ignored the scout's words and took the lead towards the city wall.

For a time, the whole army was dispatched, and outside the city, heavy troops were deployed.

The big war is on the verge of breaking out!
