At the end of the 67th year of the Shenlong calendar, the army of corpses invaded all parts of Shenya on a large scale. Finally, Li Xuanli couldn't sit still, so he urgently summoned the people in power everywhere to go to Jinzao City to discuss the matter. In order to form an alliance against the alien race.

The day after Liang Mingdi received the letter, he set out with the ram's heir towards Jinzao City. And the power of Bihai City was temporarily handed over to Shen Tuliu.

Within a few days of his walk, the army of Sifang Mountain arrived at Bihai City. This is the city lord of Anhua City, the city lord of Anhua, who was directly ordered by Li Xuanli to transfer the soldiers, in case the city lord of Liang was not there, and the corpse monster took advantage of the loophole.

Sure enough, Liang Mingdi has been gone for more than 20 days. And as early as ten days ago, the Pillar Ghost King led an army of corpse monsters and pressed over in a mighty manner.

To everyone's surprise, with it was none other than the remnants of the Fusheng Ghost King, who had returned not long ago! This time they made a comeback, but instead of Fusheng, a so-called "Yu Ghost King" suddenly appeared!

This is a later story, and I will not mention it for the time being. No matter how detailed it is, it will inevitably be verbose, so I will mention it here.

This time, Zhu Xi and the Yu Ghost King led hundreds of thousands of troops over, and they were menacing. But fortunately, Bihai City had already made preparations, and with the support of strong foreign aid from all parties, it was quite a fight for a while.

The ghost king of Nayu thought that this time he would be able to take Bihai City without much effort, but he didn't think about it, and finally formed a fierce battle......

I won't say much about this, but I will focus on Liang Mingdi: he relied on the good foot strength of the Tenglang horse, and after only a day or two out of the city, he left the ram's heir. One step ahead, he arrived at Jinzao City five or six days later.

Previously, Jinzao City had reinforcements from the Western Witch Kingdom, and it was originally able to stop the army of corpse monsters. Unexpectedly, the few ghost kings who led the way, seeing that they couldn't take Jinzao City for a long time, divided their troops into several ways and outflanked the Xiwu Kingdom!

Xiwu Kingdom is under the enemy on its back, and it can't take care of both ends, so it can only retreat back to its own territory. That Golden Algae City, but there is nothing that can be helped.

Just when Jinzao City was in danger, fortunately, Li Xuanli took the opportunity to make a decision and decisively sent troops to reinforce Master Cao. On the day Liang Mingdi arrived in Bihai City, the coalition forces just repelled the corpse monster army and forced it to Xiantan Mountain in the north of Jinzao City.

To get back to the point, at this time, ten miles outside the north of Jinzao City, there was a temporary command post. The command post is located on the top of a hill, which is the best place to see. Looking out from the open curtain, you can see a group of hills ten miles away.

There is Xiantan Mountain, although it is far away and it is not real, but as soon as the corpse monster army over there moves, it is still clear at a glance.

At this moment, the surroundings of this seemingly simple tent, including the inner and outer three layers within a radius of one mile, were guarded by heavy soldiers on the inside and outside of the hills. From this battle, it can be seen that the characters in the tent are very important.

The tent can accommodate thirty or forty people, made of cowhide, and can shelter from rain and fire. Except for the curtain that came in and out, the windows were opened on the other three sides, and they were supported by wooden sticks. There was not much furnishings inside: a table, a marching formation on the table, a circle of stools around the table, and nothing else.

At this moment a man stood at the doorway, leaning against the doorpost. Looking at the direction of Xiantan Mountain, he looked preoccupied. Look at this person: the instrument is extraordinary, the appearance is dignified, and the clothes he wears are clean and decent. The clothes tightly wrapped around the tall and majestic body. The whole body, without too many ornaments, looks very capable.

Just by looking at his clothes, you can feel that he belongs to the kind of person who does things vigorously. This man has an extraordinary appearance: slender sword eyebrows, a pair of bright eyes, and a shallow beard on the lips, which adds a slight vicissitudes of life and calm flavor to him. Looking at the age, he is in his forties, just in the prime of life.

After looking at it for a while, he turned around and looked inside the tent. At this moment, a few people were pointing to the marching formation and whispering something.

One of them sat upright on a stool, looking very earnestly at the cloth in front of him, and from time to time he bowed his head and pondered for a moment, and then asked or gave instructions to the people beside him.

This man is not young, his face is full of furrows, and even his hair is completely white. Although he is an old man, his face is full of red light, he is not angry and arrogant, and he still has a bit of majesty and domineering. Judging from the submissive expressions of others, this person's identity is by no means simple!

After discussing for a moment, the old man sitting in front of the array looked up at the person by the door. Lang said: "City Lord Cao, what do you think of the method we just agreed?

These animals are unreasonable, and we can't deal with them. If you blindly suppress them, maybe you will force them to be urgent, and then many things will come. In my opinion, we should follow the path and divide the army into three paths. ”

Listening to the words of this old man, the middle-aged man leaning against the door is Master Cao, the city lord of Jinzao City! And he himself is actually the current son of heaven in Hezhen Kingdom: Li Xuanli!

Master Cao looked at the former, nodded approvingly, and replied in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant: "Cao also expected that, that animal surrounded me for more than a month, and almost succeeded! If it wasn't for the Son of Heaven coming to the rescue in time, Cao really didn't know how to end it." ”

After a pause, he walked to the table and pointed to the layout diagram. analyzed: "Now they have been driven here by us, and here, all belong to the territory of Xiantan Mountain. Bucai very much agreed with Li Tianzi's words and slowed down his pace. I'm also afraid that if I really push them into a hurry, the other party will make some crazy moves!

If Cao's prediction is true, the intention of the Son of Heaven is to divide the troops into three ways: stop them from here and here, gather them, and prevent them from wandering around; When the situation is under control, we will slowly close the encirclement, so as not to let go of one!"

Looking at the direction of Master Cao's fingers, it was the two ridges on both sides of Xiantan Mountain. If you can quickly conquer and defend it, there will be only two ways for the corpse monster army: one is to return to the Northern Regions Mountain, and the other is to Jinzao City.

And as Master Cao said, leaving the main elite in the square and slowly pressing over, it is difficult for the corpse monster army to break through the obstacles and go straight to Jinzao City. As a result, the animals either fought to the death or simply withdrew.

and these animals, you can't fight hard. If the troops are sufficient, it is much better to use a little strategy than to fight indiscriminately. Master Cao's method is the safest plan at present, so that the loss can be minimized.

This coincides with Li Xuanli's thoughts. So, the latter smiled and stroked his beard and nodded, and said nothing more. Instead, he turned his head sideways and commanded the people around him: "Master Hua, you understand, don't go and arrange it quickly!"

Li Xuanli had five or six people around him, one of whom was the Hou Governor who had reinforced Liang Mingdi. The others looked magnificent, nothing more than the generals under Li Xuanli. And the one who is talking to the former is the "Demon Master Army Commander" Master Hua!

In the small tent, there are all people in the Shenya territory who are shaking their feet, which will cause an uproar!

Master Nahua is close to the sixtieth birthday. His hair was gray, and his body was not as tall and mighty as he imagined. On the contrary, this person has a yellow face and thin muscles, and his figure is not outstanding. Walking in the streets, I'm afraid no one will pay much attention.

But this skinny half-hundred-year-old man is the supreme commander of the controversial "Demon Master Army" in the rivers and lakes!

Master Hua heard Li Xuanli's words, and hurriedly flattered: "It's Your Majesty! My subordinates will arrange it!" After speaking, he took the order to retreat and led them out of the tent with Hou Du. As a result, only Master Cao and Li Xuanli were left in the tent.

Looking at Master Hua's distant back, Master Cao frowned the whole time. After the former walked away, he turned around and whispered to Li Xuanli: "Son of Heaven, please forgive me for my words, this Master Hua is more than a star and a half worse than Master Pan back then......!

It was also because they were not in the same camp that Master Cao dared to talk to Li Xuanli like this. Although Jinzao City did not completely break away from Hezhen Kingdom, it was once occupied by corpse monsters, just like Bihai City. Then Master San, who was led by Master Cao, recovered, but in fact it has changed hands.

After hearing this, Li Xuanli didn't seem to be angry, but sighed and said: "Although I am the Son of Heaven and hold half of the country in my hands, there are actually some things that I can't help myself...... At the beginning of the great cause of the first emperor, the land that had been ravaged by the war was all about to be rebuilt.

Unexpectedly, the first emperor suddenly died, leaving behind an unstable foundation and me. Seeing that it was hard to improve, this kind of alien race suddenly appeared...... It was at this time that some contradictions germinated. But this is my family matter, so it's better not to ask about it. ”

At this point, Master Cao said no more. But at this time, he had another thing in his heart, and he just looked at Li Xuanli in a daze, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Li Xuanli saw the former's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, so he sneered and said: "I know what Lord Cao Cheng is thinking in his heart, it's nothing more than being afraid~ I will take advantage of the danger of others this time......" A sentence broke his heart, Master Cao suddenly felt embarrassed, and couldn't help blushing slightly.

Li Xuanli shook his head lightly and continued: "Speaking of which, I am also ashamed of my ancestors and these innocent people. Over the years, Hezhen has suffered from this catastrophe, and I can't get rid of it.

Since the Lord of Cao City is destined to get the Golden Algae City, let's take care of it! The top priority at the moment is to unite and fight against the alien race. I, Li Xuanli, am old, and I just want to live the rest of my life peacefully, and leave those things about the struggle for power to future generations......"

The words were full of helplessness. Master Cao looked at the old man in front of him in a daze for a long time, and he also had a deep understanding: I think about how many people were killed by Du Kui, the last emperor of Tianluan Kingdom, a few decades ago!

If it weren't for the person in front of him, and his father Li Shanlou overthrowing his government, I don't know how long it would take for him to be ruined. It's a pity~ God wants to play tricks on the world, and he is about to live a peaceful life, but he suddenly drilled out of the corpse monster army! It's hard to be the emperor of Zhen for this......

At this point, the stone hanging in Master Cao's heart also fell to the ground. Listening to the meaning of the former's words, there are also many differences within Zhenguo. However, he did not tell the world, presumably in order not to cause unnecessary trouble. Since I can't help myself, I have to follow his wishes and not ask.

Just thinking like this, a spy suddenly came from outside the door to report: "Holy Lord! Liang Mingdi, the city lord of Bihai City, asks to see you!"

The two of them were stunned for a moment, only to see Master Cao's face suddenly happy, while Li Xuanli was a gleam in his eyes, and then returned to the demeanor of Gujing Wubo. Then he snorted at the former and said, "This Liang Mingdi is coming quite quickly! I am not afraid of walking on the front foot, and the back foot will give the corpse monster army a loophole......

As soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard a loud laugh outside: "The words of the Son of Heaven, we can hear it! If it weren't for Li Tianzi, who sent the heavy troops of Sifang Mountain to help Bihai City, so that Liang would have no worries, he would have dared to come to the meeting."

Besides, Liang probably hasn't seen the two of them for more than ten years. Even if the sky falls this time, we have to come!haha......"

In the midst of Lang's laughter, he saw a majestic figure and stepped in. Master Cao had already greeted him, and the two of them suddenly shushed and asked for warmth, and they seemed to have a deep friendship.

However, the person who came did not snub Li Xuanli, who got up to greet him, and then made a very polite gesture: "Liang is late, and I still hope that the Son of Heaven is not strange......" This person is Liang Mingdi.

Liang Mingdi and Li Xuanli looked at each other for a long time, and they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and they were also full of emotion. At this time, the former suddenly smiled, and then continued: "Li Tianzi, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come here unharmed! I saw your old man today, I was full of energy, and I also worked hard for Tianzi to personally sit in Jinzao City. Those ghost kings or something, seeing you so lively, I'm afraid I'm scared to retreat!"

Li Xuanli smiled heartily, as if this sentence was very appealing, and immediately waved his hand and replied: "As far as my old body is about to die, City Lord Liang should not make fun of it! The current world belongs to you young people......

I also want to do something for the people of the world when I still have a little appeal. If I were thirty years younger, I am afraid that I would have fought with you for the death and death! Where would I have the leisure to catch up here......

It should be that there is no one else here, and I didn't think about it, the son of heaven of Hezhen Kingdom, who is the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, also had fun with them. Liang and Master Cao looked at each other and smiled, and they both shook their heads knowingly.

If you really want to talk about it, they are not young anymore. Although Liang Mingdi is a little older than Master Cao, in the final analysis, the two are actually close to the age of confusion. But compared with Li Xuanli in front of him, he is really young.

Li Xuanli looked at the two people in front of him, standing together, both of them were lofty and high-spirited. couldn't help but nod slightly, and immediately beckoned the two of them to sit over and talk freely. These three people are all some of the best heroes in the rivers and lakes, they talk extraordinary, and they laugh out loud without taboo whenever they have a heartbeat.

The three of them talked about the old meeting so painlessly, but they heard Li Xuanli's words suddenly change and said seriously: "Brother Liang, I heard that you have reached an alliance with the Nine Holy Kingdoms? I am here to congratulate the city lord......

Hearing this, Liang Mingdi and Master Cao were stunned. Regarding the Golden Sands Divine Aunt's trip to Bihai City, the latter had no idea. But what the former thought of was: Bihai City is thousands of miles away from Golden Algae City and Dragon Scale City. I didn't expect Li Xuanli to be so well-informed, and I knew everything that happened in just a few days. It seems that nothing can be hidden from this old fox......

Liang Mingdi quickly calmed down, and did not hide it, and replied briskly: "There is such a thing." During that time, it coincided with the life and death of Bihai City, and the Lord of the Nine Holy Realms knew the difficulties of the contemptible people, so he specially sent Jinsha Divine Gu and a brigade of reinforcements to Bihai City.

Originally, it was just a human relationship, but unexpectedly, as soon as the contemptible person and the goddess hit it off, there was a sudden 'alliance'. Knowing that Li Tianzi would follow the command of the world, there was no need for Liang to do more......"

Li Xuanli waved his hand, as if he didn't care whether what he said was true or not. Instead, he sighed: "It's okay, when it's critical, you should have asked for help." In the past, it was because of the uneven hearts of the people and their own battles that they ended up in a situation full of sorrow. Hey, the afterlife is terrifying......" In the last sentence, there is a hidden mystery, but it seems to be a little meaningful.

How could they not understand Li Xuanli's extraneous voice, but Liang Mingdi put aside the topic without a trace: "What the Son of Heaven said is extremely true! It's just that before, Bihai City was in an eventful time, and Liang was in a hurry. If the doppelganger lacks skills, he can't take care of Jinzao City's side. By the way, Liang has just arrived, and I don't know what is going on in Jinzao City?"

Master Cao hurriedly said that the former had a heart, so he talked about the current situation and the layout he analyzed with Li Xuanli just now. The former was relieved to hear that Jinzao City was fine.

In the next few days, everyone's attention was focused on the corpse monster army in Xiantan Mountain. With Liang Mingdi's strong joining, studying tactics with them is also twice the result with half the effort.

The city lord of Liang was thoughtful, and every time he came up with a wonderful idea, it would attract everyone's applause. The order was conveyed to the battlefield, and the soldiers immediately used it flexibly to hit the animals all over the ground!

After a few days like this, the Lord of the Nine Holy Countries, the Lord of the Shuangfeng Kingdom, the Lord of the Fuqiu Kingdom, and the City Lords of Chishancheng City, the Lord of the Xuan Kingdom, and the City Lord of Lin Hai City outside Fanwai...... They came to Jinzao City one after another. Except for the lord of the Western Witch Country, who was close at hand, he only sent a city lord under his jurisdiction, and the rest of the people in power who could come came came.

It is worth mentioning that these small countries such as Chishancheng and Guanguo. Some are even as small as a city, and the lord of the city is the lord of the kingdom. Most of these small countries are located in the Gulf, or in places where the population is small and the land is barren.

These countries have few resources to use and are scarce in their forces to pose any threat. As a result, Li Shanlou, the founding emperor of the Hezhen Kingdom, deliberately kept them when he overthrew the Tianluan regime. These small countries, as subject states, are sandwiched between the big ones.

They also practice a hereditary system, because they have not fought with the world for many years, and singing and dancing have been leveled down, and it is inevitable that there will be some decline. This time, the army of corpses and monsters expanded their territory in a big way, and because it didn't affect them, some of the people in power didn't even bother to come. But due to Li Xuanli's deterrence, he finally came very reluctantly.

Li Xuanli squinted at these so-called city lords and country lords who had become "bloated" due to their casual lives. If they want to discuss major matters this time, they will not be able to play a role, and the right is just a formality. So he no longer paid attention to it, but set his eyes on the Nine Holy Kingdom, Shuangfeng Kingdom and other lords.

These kingdoms have also existed for thousands of years, and although the territory is not very vast, it is only relative to the country of Hezhen. Take the Nine Holy Kingdom and the Western Wu Kingdom as examples, they have several cities under their jurisdiction, and the people are fierce, and their own combat power cannot be underestimated. If it can be co-opted, then there will be another guarantee for dealing with corpse monsters.

Seeing that everyone was almost here, Li Xuanli invited everyone to take their seats, and the place of discussion was still in this temporary command post.

I only heard the former clear his throat and said loudly: "It's important, let's make a long story short." I think all of you have already known the purpose of coming here this time, right? Now that you know it, the widow will not be polite to you!

Seeing that everyone looked at him solemnly, he didn't mean to interject, it seemed that he had a bottom in his heart.

The former's tone suddenly changed, and he continued in a deep voice: "At present, as far as the news is concerned, the north of the Shenmu River and the west of the Qiandu River have basically fallen...... There are still some places that we can't be sure of, but after so long there has been no news, I think we still have to plan for the worst!"

After speaking, he pointed to the marching formation in front of him. The map is detailed and covers the entire territory of Shenya. Li Xuanli pressed his slap on one place and said, "Some of you may know better than the widow, but at this moment, the widow still has to say a few more words."

(Finger follows the map) Aling and Wind Chimes in the northwest, as well as Bei and Nantong Towns and Huayang Village in the north, as well as Amber Forest, Red/Sha/Forest, and Fengjiao not far from here...... Even Tianluan City and so on have been occupied! The situation is not optimistic!

The army of corpse monsters began to expand quietly and undeclared war a few months ago. Now we can't go our separate ways, or if we're not careful, we'll be taken advantage of by these animals!

They are not stupid either, and some high-level corpse monsters are even smarter than humans. Not only can you use tactics flexibly, but you can also imagine the depth of your skills. If you underestimate these animals, it will be too late to regret it!

There is another thing, everyone has to think carefully: the corpse monster first appeared in the twenty-seventh year of the Shenlong calendar, a full forty years ago! At first, the widow didn't think so, and didn't take them seriously, so he only let the general 'Chongyu' go to investigate. Unexpectedly, General Chongyu never returned, and even the 10,000 elite soldiers who went with him have not been heard from so far......

Where did those corpses come from, and where did they come from? They may seem scattered, but in fact they move freely. If there is nothing behind them, I am afraid that no one will believe them!

With just a few ghost kings, I'm afraid I can't do it! Therefore, over the years, the widow has sent people countless times, and even arranged the task of 'tying up the name cloth' to Master San, in order to find a clue. But so far, nothing has been found......

In the opinion of the widows, there must be a force behind the corpse monster army, and it is by no means a 'human'! As for whether they are human or ghost, there is no way to find out. But what is certain is that 'they' are definitely more tricky than the ghost king!

The army of corpses came out of the Northern Regions Mountains, and in the past, the widows also identified their headquarters as being in the Northern Regions Mountains. But since the last time, Master Pan ...... The accident caused Hezhen to suffer heavy losses, and the widows faintly felt that their nest might not be there!

Until now, we still don't know anything about the army of ghouls. The black hand behind the scenes is also too deeply hidden, and it has not been revealed so far. I think that if all of you can unite this time, you will definitely be able to force it out!"

"At this point, it's up to you to make your choice. If there are no objections, I would like you to sign a formal treaty.

Of course, this treaty will be valid as long as the corpse monster army is still there. If there is any misunderstanding or misunderstanding between you, the treaty will be invalidated when the victory comes, and the widow will no longer have the right to interfere in your affairs. I also hope that your Excellencies, for the sake of the critical situation, will put aside your past suspicions and get through this difficult time together......"

After speaking, he immediately took out a roll of silk silk from his sleeve and placed it in front of everyone to unfold. The silk silk is very exquisite and of high quality, and it seems that Li Xuanli has already prepared for this group meeting.

Everyone couldn't help but stretch their necks to take a look, only to see a few big words in the treaty: "Covenant of the Golden Algae Heroes".

The contents of the treaty are no different from those written in the letters. It seems that Li Xuanli is very attentive this time, and has tried to lower his posture as much as possible to win people's hearts. Treaties can be signed, not child's play. Nowadays, the tense is sensitive, and once this contract is signed, it means that the entire Shenya territory will be linked.

But there are also many drawbacks: maybe when you are fighting side by side with other teams, you may be beaten upside down. Especially weak and small countries are even more worried about being used as cannon fodder by big countries.

When those small countries were still weighing the pros and cons and making uncertain moves, they couldn't help but hear Liang Mingtu on the side say solemnly: "For the sake of the common people in the world, for the sake of innocent children...... These ordinary people have been tortured and frightened for decades! Is it so difficult for us to sign a contract? Liang has signed this contract!"

After speaking, he picked up the pen in his hand, very cleanly, and signed his name. And he dipped his hand in ink, and pressed his finger.

The lord of Shuangfeng Country and the lord of the Nine Holy Realms, seeing that Liang Mingdi was so happy, only paused, and also signed happily. Followed by Master Cao and the lord of Fuqiu Country......

The rulers of those small places, unable to make up their minds, are watching from the sidelines. Leng Buding saw everyone's cold eyes glancing at them. Secretly swallowed his saliva, a little weak-hearted, but he still gritted his teeth and signed it.

Looking at the "Covenant of the Golden Algae Heroes" that was signed "a flower" in front of them, everyone was awe-inspiring. It seems that a full-scale war, in the near future, is about to begin......

< End of Part 1>
