Chapter 148: The Situation
Along the way, Lin Xiao and the others never rested, and after coming to King Li's City, Lin Xiao took everyone straight to King Li's mansion.
Lin Xiao's safe return made the Eastern Emperor and others overjoyed. As soon as he received the news, the Eastern Emperor personally led a group of masters from the Eastern Emperor's Mansion to greet him.
Then, the group came to the hall of Li Wang City to discuss important matters.
At the beginning, Lin Xiao told everyone what happened in Guangwang City.
In the process of listening to Lin Xiao's narration, everyone in the East Imperial Mansion was first happy, then surprised, and finally had a sad look on their faces. The expression changes quickly, no less than the 'color-changing' dragon.
There was a lot of information in Lin Xiao's words, and this information also deeply shocked everyone.
And Lin Xiao also learned about the battle situation in other cities today from the mouth of the Eastern Emperor Lord.
There was only one battle situation, but it dealt a fatal blow to the Eastern Imperial Palace.
Not for anything else, just because the Sword King City was lost. Sword King City is the largest city in the Eastern Imperial Mansion except for the Fu City, since the Sword King Mansion has been guarding this city, not to mention the fall, it has not dared to attack at all.
But this time, the city, which had stood still for thousands of years, is now in the hands of the enemy. This is a huge blow to the Eastern Emperor Lord, and even to the morale of the entire Eastern Emperor Mansion army.
When they first heard this bad news, everyone in the Eastern Imperial Mansion didn't react for a long time and froze. And the Sword King and the people in the Sword King's Mansion were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they couldn't wait to rush to the Sword King City immediately.
Their families, clansmen, and even the foundation of the entire Sword King Mansion are in the Sword King City. As soon as the Sword King City fell, the Sword King Mansion existed in name only.
Among the ten kings of Daxing, there is now one less king.
If it weren't for the East Emperor Lord and others desperately stopping the Sword King and the others, the Sword King would have already taken the Sword King Mansion to help recover the Sword King City at this moment.
Everyone in the East Emperor Mansion sighed, and the defense line of the East Emperor Mansion, which had been painstakingly operated for thousands of years, collapsed in less than half a day and was broken by the enemy.
According to the narrative of the Eastern Emperor, Lin Xiao found that the situation in the Sword King City was roughly the same as that in the Guangwang City, and the enemy army was two groups of people.
The first 'wave' was 300 people, and the second 'wave' was 1,000 people.
The 300 people of the first 'wave' were wiped out after the reinforcements from the Eastern Emperor's Mansion arrived at Sword King City. But after the 1,000 people of the second 'wave' rushed to the Sword King City, the Sword King City was lost.
After nearly three hours of hard fighting, the masters in the Sword King City and the reinforcements sent by the Eastern Emperor Mansion were almost wiped out, and only seven people survived.
Emperor Chi died in battle, the four great martial emperors in the Sword King City were also killed, and only Ji You, the emperor-level master, escaped by chance. But he was also seriously injured and has not been in a coma ever since.
The tragedy of the second battle of Sword King City was no less than the Battle of Jiuqupo. Both sides fought hard, and the corpses of the Sword King were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river.
After receiving the news of the fall of Sword King City, the Eastern Emperor originally thought that the situation in Guangwang City was similar to that of Sword King City, and was considering whether to send someone to support.
Once Lin Xiao has an accident, the contemporary sword king will not give up.
But before the Eastern Emperor sent troops to support, Lin Xiao and others came to King Li's mansion. At that moment, the Eastern Emperor was overjoyed and went to greet Lin Xiao in person.
Now, in the eyes of the Eastern Emperor, as long as Lin Xiao can come back alive, other things are not important, and if Guangwang City is lost, it will be lost.
However, the Eastern Emperor did not expect that Guangwang City was not lost. With Lin Xiao's strategy and the help of Bohuang and others, although the army of Guangwangcheng suffered heavy losses, it won.
Not only is it a victory, but it can even be said that it is a total annihilation of the enemy army, except for the surrender and the commander, everyone else is destroyed.
Of course, there is an element of luck and an element of trickery. If there was no Seven Killing Array of Emperor Bo and others, if Lin Xiao did not design an ambush, I am afraid that the ending of Guangwang City would be no different from that of Sword King City.
But before the Eastern Emperor was happy, Lin Xiao threw out another bombshell - the people of the demon clan.
After learning that there were people from the Demon Clan participating in the battle, the people in the Eastern Emperor's Mansion all had dull expressions, and they didn't react for a long time.
From Lin Xiao's words, they could even hear that this time the demon clan did not only send a small force, but a large army to attack. The so-called four major forces are just a disguise, and it is the demons who really do it.
Previously, everyone was still wondering where the four major forces came from so many Martial Emperor masters, and why the mysterious person could use the cultivation of a high-level Martial Emperor to injure the Eastern Emperor Lord.
But now, it all makes sense.
Most of these Martial Emperor masters are from the Demon Race, and the mysterious people are also Demon masters who occupy human bodies. Although it seems that there is only a Martial Emperor, his true cultivation is only afraid that it is far above the Eastern Emperor.
For this war, the demons are really racking their brains.
The Eastern Emperor originally planned to send troops to recapture Sword King City, but after hearing that a hundred people had become demons, he decisively gave up this idea. If you want to recapture Sword King City, Li Wang City must send at least half of the masters.
In this way, it will be difficult to defend Liwang City.
Just by attacking Guangwang City and Sword King City, the demon clan will send such a lineup, then the strength of the demon clan in Xinwang City will only be even more terrifying.
If the demon clan is desperate to attack at this moment, I am afraid that even Li Wang City will not be able to defend it.
"Emperor, hurry up and explain the situation to the Holy Capital, and ask for support again. ”
A martial emperor of the Eastern Emperor's Mansion said in a hurry.
"Hey. ”
The Eastern Emperor Lord sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's too late." ”
When everyone heard it, they did the same.
From Lin Xiao's mouth, the Eastern Emperor Lord and the others learned that one of the demons had fled. In this case, the demons must know that their identities have been revealed. Then there would be no need for them to hide any longer.
If they go to ask for help at this moment, at least six days back and forth, will the demons give them so much time?
Seeing everyone's sad faces, Lin Xiao said: "You don't have to worry, I have sent Jian Yan to deliver the letter, and I believe that the Eastern Expeditionary Army will arrive soon." ”
The Eastern Expeditionary Army also set off only one day later than the Vanguard Army, and now Kenhiko went to deliver the letter. Just wait for the letter to arrive, and the Crusade Army will definitely speed up its march.
In this way, by tomorrow morning at the latest, the Eastern Expeditionary Army will be able to rush to Liwangcheng.
As long as the people of the Eastern Emperor's Mansion hold on for half a day, as soon as the Eastern Expeditionary Army arrives, the crisis in Liwangcheng will be solved.
The five great martial saints, the fifty or sixty martial emperors, plus thousands of masters, unless the demon clan does its best, otherwise it will not be able to take the Li Wang City in a short period of time.
And after receiving Lin Xiao's letter, the Sword King and Yaorui will definitely inform the Holy Capital of the news of the demon invasion, and the follow-up reinforcements will arrive in less than five days.
Now that he came, Li Wangcheng was solid. As soon as the Holy Capital army arrives, the Eastern Imperial Mansion can launch a full-scale counterattack.
Although the demons are powerful, if Daxing does his best, this battle is bound to be a protracted battle, which is very unfavorable to the demons.
Once the other forces in the human race know about the invasion of the demons, there will definitely be a large number of masters from other forces who will come here to fight against the demons.
The little Blood Demon Cave, how can it be the opponent of the entire human race? Even, just the Great Prosperity Holy Kingdom may not be able to defeat them.
"Hmm. ”
After hearing this, the Eastern Emperor felt a little calmer, and then began to arrange major events in the city.
Now, the Eastern Emperor's Mansion is no longer able to confront the demons head-on, and they can only defend in an all-round way. While sending hundreds of scouts to monitor every move in Sword King City and Shinwang City, the Eastern Emperor Lord shrank his army and put all of it on dealing with the expedition of the demon clan that would return at any time.
The entire Liwang City was mobilized, and the depressing atmosphere permeated the Liwang City.
