Volume 3 Good and Evil Temporarily All Depend on People Chapter 172 Desperate Situation

The Dragon Boat Festival in Jiyang City was very lively, and ordinary people only knew that Tang Yi was in a coma, but no one knew how, so when they heard that today was Tang Yi's birthday, and when they learned that the government was going to hold a large-scale celebration, they immediately cheered happily. m.

At noon, people ate hot zongzi, but Tang Yi did not wake up; at dusk, people sang and danced in the square, watching all kinds of performances that were rarely seen, but Tang Yi still did not wake up.

The night sky was full of stars, seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival was about to pass, Chen Mengxue sat next to the ice coffin, leaning against the ice coffin, looking at the lights outside the hall, listening to the cheers of the people.

On the ice coffin was a plate of rice dumplings that had already been cooled.

At some point, the chaotic laughter and shouting outside disappeared, and people could be faintly heard chanting in unison.

As the voice became louder and louder, Chen Mengxue heard clearly what people were chanting, it turned out that Qi Sheng and others organized the people of the whole city to congratulate Tang Yi on his birthday.

I don't know who came up with the birthday message, even Wanshou Wujiang and Jiangshan Yonggu have come out, Tang Yi is not the emperor What does Jiangshan Yonggu want? And he seems to be less than thirty years old, what to do with Wanshou Wujiang so early?

What's more, it is impossible for a person to live forever, so let's talk about longevity when he survives this catastrophe.

"Do you hear that? The whole city is celebrating your birthday, so you should at least come out and say hello to everyone at this time, right?

People like you will say that you are too arrogant and not close to the people at all. Don't you always say that water can carry a boat and it can capsize a boat, and be careful that they will overthrow you when the time comes. ”

Chen Mengxue gently patted the ice coffin behind her while drinking, but the ice coffin was still so hard and cold, and there was no reaction inside.

Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival was about to become the past, Chen Mengxue sighed and stood up, it seems that Tang Yi will not wake up today, since Tang Yi does not come forward, she, 'Mrs. Tang', will always have to go out on behalf of her husband.

Chen Mengxue had not yet walked out of the gate, when she suddenly saw a firework appear in the northern sky, which was not a military order fireworks used by the soldiers, but a communication fireworks on the Lunan side.

"It's ...... Is there another army in Luzhong?" Chen Mengxue glanced back at Tang Yi again, sighed lightly, and said, "With such a sleepy boss as you, guarding this group of people has really poured eight generations of blood mold." ”

After saying that, Chen Mengxue walked out of the hall where the ice coffin was parked.

At this time, the carnival in Jiyang City was still continuing, but Qi Sheng, Wang Meng and others were already waiting for Chen Mengxue in a large hall, and as soon as Chen Mengxue appeared, these people immediately reported the situation.

Tang Yi was in a coma for so long, and Lu Nan didn't deliberately hide it, originally the soldiers thought that Tang Yi was deliberately pretending to be unconscious and luring them to attack Lu Nan again, so it really stopped for a while.

But with the passage of time, now a month and a half has passed, he still has not woken up, and the soldiers have been sending troops and generals again and again this month, in addition to ordering other old generals to lead the local army to guard Lu Zhong, he actually transferred half of the 100,000 Red Armor Guards, and allocated another 10,000 to Li Yong.

Li Yong, who had 12,000 Red Armor Guards, had long wanted to return to Jiyang City from a new counterattack, but it was a pity that the elders of the soldiers had been pressing him and not allowing him to move.

As soon as he was released this time, Li Yong immediately came with more than 10,000 Red Armor troops directly into Jiyang City, but he was afraid that in three or five days at most, the 10,000 Red Armor Guards would arrive in Jiyang City.

In addition to the 12,000 Red Armor Guards led by Li Yong, the soldiers also sent three other generals to each lead the 10,000 Red Armor Guards, and the speed of those three armies was not as fast as Li Yong's, and the route was not as direct as his.

Although the routes are slightly different, the targets are all Jiyang City, and the four armies are only half a day's journey from each other, obviously these three armies are for protection and use, and prevent further reinforcements from interfering with the battlefield.

They felt that the key to this defeat was not Tang Yi's Horcruxes, but those reinforcements.

If it weren't for the 10,000 reinforcements that dragged the Red Armor Guard, Tang Yi wouldn't even be able to sacrifice the soul array and those Horcruxes, and Lu Nan would have been defeated.

This time, Tang Yi did not wake up in a coma, and there were no more troops to help in Dalu, whether it was on the Lunan side or not, and Confucianism had also promised to ban the Dalu Dynasty, and no foreign forces could enter the territory of Lunan.

In this way, Lu Nan will undoubtedly lose this time.

After Wang Meng reported the news he had inquired about, he suggested: "Or, retreat to the Wolf Soul City, there is a Han Sage in charge, even Li Yong will not dare to enter the city." ”

"Yes, now we have only 20,000 troops, and these are not counting the reinforcements brought by Madame, while the enemy has 40,000 troops.

The Red Armor Army's combat strength was already stronger than ours, but now that it was twice as many as ours, it was impossible to win at all. Qi Sheng also shook his head and echoed Wang Meng's suggestion.

It stands to reason that the reinforcements brought by Chen Mengxue now are also from the Enlightenment Realm, and after learning the Sancai Formation, they should not be worse than the same number of Red Armor troops anyway, it's just ......

In the past month, Qi Sheng and the others have been practicing non-stop, and found that even if they were the thousands of reinforcements from the same Enlightenment Realm, they still couldn't gain the upper hand in the face of the same number of Red Armor Army, at most they could only fight equally, or even slightly inferior.

Wang Meng also sent the formation of the Red Armor Army to the New Military Academy for study, but he couldn't study it thoroughly, and he only knew that the formation was not as good as the Sancai Formation.

In addition, there is only one explanation, that is, there may be some secrets in those people in the soldiers.

Chen Mengxue lowered her eyebrows and muttered: "It's easy to withdraw the army, but this place is not close to Wolf Soul City, I'm afraid that if I can't get to Wolf Soul City, I will be killed."

The Red Armor has blocked the way, right?"

She glanced at everyone, and continued, "And if you withdraw the army now, what will happen to the ice coffin?

The ice coffin couldn't move at all, not that it weighed, no matter how heavy it was, it could always be lifted by more people.

It's just that the yin qi on the ice coffin is too heavy, except for Toad Palace Xue, no one can get close to the ice coffin within three zhang, even if Qi Sheng, whose strength surpasses the Breaking Dao Realm after entering the demon and is comparable to the tenth-floor monk, he can't get close to the ice coffin.

It stands to reason that his strength is very close to today's Narrow Ghost, and even surpasses today's Narrow Ghost, but he still can't get close to the ice coffin.

After all, the ice coffin was made of the Nine Shades of Cold Ice in the Underworld, and in addition to the cold air, there were also yin qi and death qi, except for Chen Mengxue, who came back from the dead, as long as it was a living person, it was difficult to get close.

"There is no danger for the master to stay here. Except for Shi Niang, who can get close to the ice coffin? We can't get close, and it is impossible for the soldiers to do it.

I've just made a fuss, and if we continue to stay here, we'll be dead.

It's the same with going to the Wolf Soul Gang. Wu Neng cleaned up the divination weapon on the table and said: "Our way of life is in the south, and only by marching towards the border of the Dalu Dynasty can we have a glimmer of life." ”

Chen Mengxue didn't speak this time, but looked at the rest of the people.

Wang Meng proposed to withdraw the army for the first time because he didn't remember that Tang Yi couldn't move, but now that he thinks about it, he naturally doesn't want to give up and flee alone.

"Although we can't get close to the ice coffin, at least the master can. Can you be sure that there is no one on the soldier's side who can get close to the ice coffin? Even if there is only one, there is a possibility that an accident will happen. ”

After Wang Meng looked at the three Wu Nengshi brothers, he said coldly: "Although the ice coffin can be opened by basically no one, the ghost is always afraid of everything.

What if the person who can get close to the ice coffin is a master like Brother Qi, or is it better than Brother Qi's cultivation? What if the ice coffin is not as indestructible as the Devil said?"

When Wu Neng and the others heard this, they were about to open their mouths to refute, but Wang Meng continued: "If you think that my eldest brother is not your master and is no longer so important, you can leave at any time." ”

Wu Neng rolled his eyes after hearing this, and Qi Sheng also lowered his head and did not speak, but Wu Jing rushed to say: "Who said that the master is not our master? ”

Chen Mengxue closed her eyes and muttered for a long time, then she said, "Wu Neng, you are a little sure." ”

After all, she is now sitting in Tang Yi's seat, and many things cannot be decided solely on personal emotions, even if this personal emotion is Tang Yi.

She believes that Tang Yi will make the same choice when he is in this position.

Just when Chen Mengxue and the others were in a meeting, two figures suddenly appeared in the uninhabited hall where the ice coffin was parked, one of which was clearly visible, and the other was a little blurry, which seemed to be a soul body.

These two people are none other than Tang Yi, who should have been lying in the ice coffin, and the ghost who has already returned to the underworld.

"It's good that you came back in time, if you don't come back, I'm going to break the ice coffin from inside. ”

Tang Yi moved his muscles and bones, and said to the ghost beside him: "This ice coffin and the me inside will never be recognized, right?"

"Except for Toad Palace, who is connected to your life and death, no one recognizes it. After answering his question, he turned his head to look at him and said, "You really don't want to meet them?"

"If you want to hide from the enemy, you must first hide from your own people. Okay, take me out of the city quietly, we have to rush to the rescue before the army is intercepted, otherwise there is really no way to fight this battle. ”

"Do you still have reinforcements?" The ghost grabbed Tang Yi and took him straight underground, leaving Jiyang City from the ground with the Escape Technique.

After Tang Yi quietly left Jiyang City with the help of the Narrow Ghost, the meeting in the main hall was still not over.

However, the three Qi Shengshi brothers and Wang Meng have stopped talking, and the four of them are waiting for Chen Mengxue to make the final choice, and now she is the commander of Lunan.

Chen Mengxue finally gave the order to transfer, she couldn't order the army to be buried here for her and Tang Yi, she didn't plan to leave here, but wanted to stay here to accompany Tang Yi.

The ice coffin couldn't be moved at all, and if she couldn't lift it alone, the Nine Shadows Ice would freeze everything it touched, whether it was a car or a rope.

Chen Mengxue didn't say that she would stay, and after giving the order to transfer, she went to the hall where the ice coffin was parked to 'say goodbye' to Tang Yi.

The commander-in-chief of the soldiers this time is still Li Yong, and the old men of the soldiers hope that he can learn the lessons of the past and grow up in this war.

Li Yong did much better this time than last time, he didn't take the enemy lightly again, even if the soldiers had made all the plans for him, this time he was still steady and steady, slowly advancing towards Jiyang City.

After the Fourth Route Army entered the territory of Lunan Land, Li Yong sent 10,000 rear troops to Jiyang City to the only way to Wolf Soul City, hoping to intercept the fleeing Lunan army there.

Of course, the army will not stay where it is to set traps, and there is no need for them to set traps with 40,000 against 10,000.

The army of that road will attack Jiyang City along the nearest road from Wolf Soul City to Jiyang City.

In addition, he also sent many scouts secretly cultivated by soldiers, the number of which was tens of thousands, these tens of thousands of people were elites who were good at speed and concealment, unless those important tasks of the Lunan Army escaped from the army and fled alone, it would be impossible to get rid of these people.

The performance of these scouts also made Li Yong extremely satisfied, and only the day after the transfer of the Lunan army, they sent back a road map for the retreat of the Lunan army.

When he learned that the Lunan army did not move to the Wolf Soul City, but went to the southern border of the Great Lu Dynasty, he immediately sent someone back to reconfirm the situation of the Holy Temple.

After knowing that the Holy Temple would stop those people, Li Yong was not in a hurry, and still advanced towards Jiyang City along the established route, with the rear army and 20,000 people on the right rushing to the border first, and he and the left army went to Wolf Soul City.

Judging from the information from the scouts, although the Lunan army brought a lot of things, they didn't see anything similar to the ice coffin, maybe Tang Yi's ice coffin was still in Jiyang City.

When Li Yong led the army to Jiyang City, the ice coffin was still in the main hall, and he couldn't see the appearance of the person in the coffin clearly when he stood outside the hall, and only vaguely felt that it should be Tang Yi.

It is true that no one in the soldiers can get close to the ice coffin, but it does not mean that they can't destroy the ice coffin, with a giant crossbow and a special bow and arrow, even a city wall protected by a formation can shoot through, let alone an ice coffin?

After wasting ten special crossbow arrows, he did break open the ice coffin, but the body in the ice coffin was also unrecognizable and unrecognizable.

The only recognizable thing is the dented scar on the chest, which is the scar left by the battle against Valanzhai.

When he saw the sunken chest, Li Yong finally breathed a sigh of relief, led the army out of Jiyang City, and tracked the Lunan army all the way south.

Now that the Lunan army had arrived at the border, it was only intercepted by the Holy Temple barrier at the border, and Wang Meng had already known this information, so everyone was not surprised.

It's just that now that they have reached the border line, they haven't found out where Wu Neng's so-called glimmer of life is, but instead of discovering the so-called glimmer of life, they have now fallen into a desperate situation that is even more difficult than Jiyang City.

Jiyang City has a city wall, and it can resist a little bit, but this is just a wilderness, and there is not even a city defense formation.

Behind it is the Confucian prohibition, and there are a total of 40,000 red armor guards on the left, right and in front, which can be said to be a desperate situation of death.

The desperate situation can test people's will the most, and it can also break people's hearts the most, and now the Lunan army has reached the verge of collapse, and the soldiers can't help but complain that the rapid march is so far, and even the core of the people have quarreled.

"Wu Neng, is this what you mean by a glimmer of life?" Wang Meng finally couldn't help but break out at this time, of course, the reason for his outburst was not from the fear of death, but to blame Wu Neng for insisting on moving south, not only failed to lead everyone out of the predicament, but also left his eldest brother alone in Jiyang City.

"If you stay in Jiyang City, there is a big brother, even if he hasn't woken up yet, it can make people feel more at ease. ”

Although Wu Jing and Qi Sheng didn't speak, they also felt that it was much better to stay in Jiyang City than to be trapped here.

"With this idle quarrel, it is better to think about how to deal with the enemy. Chen Mengxue knew that Tang Yi had woken up, but since Tang Yi hadn't met with them, he obviously didn't want anyone to know about him, so he didn't tell these people.

It is precisely because she knows that Tang Yi has woken up, so she feels that she has not yet reached a desperate situation, and maybe the glimmer of life that Wu Neng refers to is Tang Yi.

It's just that before that, she has to make sure that the army can insist on Dao Tangyi coming.

"Responding to the enemy?" Wang Meng and Wu Neng both smiled bitterly, how can there be a way to deal with the enemy now, with 40,000 against 20,000, their strength is not as good as the Red Armor Army, how to deal with the enemy?

Besides, now that the morale of the Lunan army is low, it is on the verge of collapse, and I am afraid that it will be defeated in one round, right?

Wu Jing didn't think about it so much, he wasn't good at thinking about these things, Qi Sheng didn't speak, in his opinion, whether he stayed in Jiyang City or was trapped here, it was nothing more than a battle, there was no difference.

"Don't worry about morale, tell the soldiers, we will have reinforcements coming soon. Chen Mengxue knew that they were worried about low morale, so she no longer hid the news of Tang Yi's awakening.

"Let me tell you the truth, your master, big brother, woke up long before we transferred, and the reason why he didn't meet you was just to avoid being discovered by Li Yong.

Now that he's probably moved to the rescue, we just need to hold on until he arrives to help. ”

"Big brother woke up?"

"Reinforcements?"

After Wang Meng and Wu Neng glanced at Chen Mengxue with surprise on their faces, they hurriedly chased after Qi Sheng, who had already taken the lead in going out, and went to appease the soldiers together.

It's just that they had just left the big tent and had not yet walked out of the news, when the shouts of the 40,000 people of the Red Armor Army sounded around, and the sound spread to the Lunan Army along the breeze and into the ears of every soldier.

"Tang Yi's head is here, and you are not coming down quickly. ”

"Tang Yi is dead, and those who descend will not be killed. ”

Accompanied by the shouting, there was also the sound of neat footsteps of the 40,000 army, and in the blink of an eye, the dense red armor guards appeared half a mile outside the camp tent of the Lunan army, surrounding the Lunan camp.

In Li Yong's Chinese army, there is also a flagpole several feet high, and there is no flag on the flagpole, but a head that has long been unrecognizable.

"Mr. Tang...... Dead?" Mo said that Wang Meng and the others had not yet pacified the soldiers, even the soldiers they had already notified were staring at the head on the flagpole opposite at this time.

At this moment, their previous small confidence completely collapsed.
