A company of three military camps set up camp at the foot of Sushan Mountain. The barracks were built on the river, and the soldiers who accompanied the army were hurriedly arranging temporary formations, and most of the soldiers were busy counting the materials rescued from Zhaoyuan City, and the ordnance, food, elixir, and spiritual ink were all piled up in a mess, and the military officers in charge of logistics were very busy, and asked General Lu Qian for additional manpower one after another.

In fact, this is not a problem at all, after all, the army has retreated hundreds of miles south, and the demon clan will not be able to attack Sushan for a while, and there are a lot of soldiers who have nothing to do, just send some people to help the nagging military officer, what really makes this General Lu Qian a headache is that there are nearly 30,000 ordinary people in this military camp.

After receiving the news of the rout of the Jingwei army, Lü Qian realized that Zhaoyuan City could not be defended at all. As a rich city deep in the hinterland of Dali, Zhaoyuan City has less than 20,000 defenders, first, because there is a Beijing guard stationed thirty miles to the north, so close to the distance, there is no need for Zhaoyuan City to maintain too many troops, and secondly, because a few days ago, the northern Xinjiang suddenly ignited a beacon fire, and the imperial court transferred troops from the major cities, and Zhaoyuan City was also fully drained of nearly half of the manpower.

More than 10,000 people wrestled with the demon clan who could defeat the Jing Guard? If you play a game and don't retreat, then he, Lu Qian, is afraid that he will become a snack in the mouth of the demon clan with more than 10,000 people under his command.

Therefore, although it was a disgrace for a general to abandon the city and flee, Lu Qian also gave the order to retreat almost the moment he got the news.

This is really a difficult thing, there are hundreds of thousands of civilians in the city, most of them have followed Lu Qian's advice, dragged their families with their mouths, and fled in all directions, but there are also a small number of people who refuse to leave this land where their ancestors have lived for many years, Lu Qian had to send his soldiers almost door to door to persuade them, but there are still people who are stubborn and do not leave, and even angrily scold these soldiers who are about to abandon the city.

After estimating the movements of the demon clan, Lu Qian realized that he could not delay any longer, and finally ordered the army defending the city to retreat south, leaving behind the city called Zhaoyuan.

Lü Qian led his troops all the way to the south, but unexpectedly found that the impact of the rout of the Jingwei army was even greater than he imagined.

The road to the south was full of routs and refugees, and Lü Qian inquired several times before he came to a shocking conclusion that the eight cities in the northwest and northwest of Lidu had all been lost.

This means that the capital of Dali is now embattled and has become a lonely city surrounded by demon clans.

"General Lu?" a young general with a pale face called softly. Lu Qian raised his head, the person who spoke was not his subordinates, but the routed soldiers he gathered on the road, and he used to be a hundred guards in the Jingwei army, as if he was called Chu Ze.

"General Lu, what should we do next?" Lu Qian rubbed the long knife in his hand and smiled,

"Counting the routs that have been gathered, I, Lu Qian, now have almost 80,000 people in my hands, damn, I didn't expect Lao Tzu to be able to command so many people one day. ”

"General Lu......" that Chen Ze smiled bitterly,

"Why do you still have the heart to joke, 80,000 soldiers plus those 30,000 civilians, our food can't last a few days. ”

"What's the solution?" Lu Qian shrugged his shoulders and tapped the table leg with his long knife before he said,

"I remember to the south, the largest city should be Jingcheng?"

"Yes, two days' distance, where do you want to go, General?"

"Otherwise, what should I do, 30,000 civilians! It adds up to almost 110,000! How can I eat in an ordinary small town?" Lu Qian touched his head, and a trace of murder flashed in his eyes,

"Besides, Nainai's, why don't you hurry up and build a new line of defense, are you really waiting for the demon clan to destroy Da Li?"

This is a city near the river, and it is also the largest and richest place in the south of Dali, and the city has been closed at this time, and the whole city is under martial law.

The great array of city guards has been opened, and the soldiers guarding the city head are three times as many as in the past, and the general of the four city walls has taken root at the head of the city, eating and living here, and they dare not leave for a moment, for fear that the demon clan will attack at any time.

The monks in the city also talked a lot, and the shocking changes in a few days really surprised them, and the sharp turn of this battle made many casual cultivators worried.

And the arrival of Tianji Pavilion yesterday pushed all this to the forefront.

"Have you heard? Tianji Pavilion is walking and asking all the factions to assemble!"

"Is this to recapture Lidu?"

"It should be, right? After all, Lidu should not be lost by now, but a few more days, it's hard to say. ”

"! You haven't heard yet? Tianji Pavilion is going to recruit disciples from various factions and establish a defense line in Jingcheng!

"What? What about Lidu?"

"I'm not going to take it back for the time being. ”

"What does this mean? Although the demon clan bypassed the Lotus Dock and entered the hinterland of Dali, my Eastern Wilderness factions are not vegetarians, right? A lone army of demon clans, why don't you just destroy them?"

"You still don't know, the demon clan in the demon control has already been beaten! Now the demon clan army surrounding Lidu is not alone!"

"Then this Da Li ...... Is it dead?"

"Only the south is left untouched. ”

"I'm afraid it won't be calm for a few days, haven't you seen that the monks of all factions have arrived in the past two days!"

"Well, it is said that the small sects on the west side of Dali have abandoned the mountain gate, and the entire sect has retreated to this side. ”

"Wait, the Demon Suppression Demon Clan is dispatched, what about the four factions of the Ten Thousand Ancient Palace and the Spirit Ruins?

"It's okay over there, it is said that the demon clan did not continue to the east after leaving the Demon Pass, but went directly south. ”

"Well, I'm afraid we're going to go to war soon. ”

"What are you afraid of? My generation of monks, you should be inseparable from the demon clan!" The noisy noise filled the various restaurants in the city, and countless eyes were gathered in the city lord's mansion, the walking of the Tianji Pavilion, and the people of several sects were all here.

And on the southern city wall, the general of the city guard was sitting on a chair, closing his eyes to recuperate, and his nerves were tense for several days, which made him, a monk of the Divine Mind Realm, have a little headache.

The drunken moonlight had already fallen, and it was half bright and half shadowy on the walls, and every two feet above the city stood an archer, each with a ringing arrow in his hand, ready to warn the people of the city when they found the enemy.

Suddenly, an archer raised his bow and stared nervously into the distance. A hazy figure was rushing towards Jingcheng at a rapid pace.

"Someone!" shouted the archer, aiming his arrows at the sky, but his eyes were unblinking.

The defender jumped from his chair and rushed to the wall.

"Who is it!" the figure was extremely fast, and he rushed to a halt in front of the large city protection array, his clothes in tatters, but his momentum was amazing.

He looked at the general guarding the city coldly and spoke.

"I'm Jiang Rui!" "I'm Jiang Rui!" Chapter 167 of the latest chapter of Uncle Jianmen's stormy Da Li website:
