The air in the pavilion was solidified, filled with a tense atmosphere, and the arrogance of the extravagant corpse in front of the gate of the country made all the ghost soldiers and yin officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom present feel unhappy.

The ghost general beside Xiao Shizhu had anger flashing in his eyes. He was already gripping the hilt of the long knife at his waist and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard.

But when the blade of the knife was half an inch out of the sheath, Xiao Shizhu held down his hand. Under the incredulous and stunned gaze of this ghost general, Xiao Shizhu, who had a gloomy face, looked directly at the corpse of Haobi, and said word by word without fear: "The Wenyuan Valley of the Corpse Country is also quite close to my Nine Shadows Country; But if you want me to cut the ground, you can daydream. ”。

Haobi corpse's gaze turned on Xiao Shizhu's gloomy face with determination, and after snorting angrily, he said, "Okay, then let's see who gets out of Dongyi Continent first." If you don't get out of Manjiang City after ten days, I will lead a large army to come and kill you yourself. After that, he turned around angrily and left.

"Lord, it's too arrogant to be arrogant! The ghost's face was filled with anger, and he gritted his teeth and clenched the hilt of the knife even tighter: "I'll kill him." ”。

"In this way, the Corpse Soul Army will attack immediately, and we don't even have time to prepare. Seeing the corpse of Haobi drifting away, when Xiao Shizhu stopped him, he scolded sharply: "You kill him now, it is tantamount to accelerating the advance of the corpse soul army." ”。

Xiao Shizhu knew that the corpse was not joking with him, and he knew that the corpse soul army was powerful, and they all had an incomparable self-healing ability. Since war cannot be avoided, it is safe to do so, but it must not be fought without preparation, otherwise the Nine Shadows Kingdom will only end up in a crushing victory or defeat.

He has to stall for time, and if he can delay for a day, he will be more prepared, and the winning rate will naturally increase.

In an instant, Xiao Shizhu had turned his head and glared at the ghost general fiercely, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Go and strengthen the city defense, we have a hard battle to fight." ”。

"Tell the people in the city that this place will be invaded by the Corpse Soul Army soon, if you want to flee for your life, you can go south, and the officials of the other regions of the Nine Shadows Kingdom will treat them well. Then, Xiao Shizhu turned his head to look at Shui Dadu, who was also angry: "Young and strong ghosts, if they are bloody and willing to stay and fight side by side with the army, stay to consolidate the city defense." And tell them that I, Xiao Shizhu, will never leave them and run away. ”。

Shui Dadu put away a little anger, cast a grateful look at Xiao Shizhu, and after saluting, he strode out of the Yanzhu Pavilion.

Shen Ji happened to come at this time, and only then did he stand still in the pavilion, and before he could speak, Xiao Shizhu had already taken the lead in speaking: "Tell Lin Cong that I will send two Xiancha to Aoki County tonight, and ask him to hand over all the stored ammunition to us first." Tell Xuanshui again, let him hand over the tens of thousands of Xudu troops who surrendered to Cheng in front of Langya Pass to Ji Yan and Tanuki Tianqi, and these two ghost generals will go north tonight and enter Manjiang City. ”。

Haobi didn't know that as early as the day Xiao Shizhu entered Manjiang City, the Xudu Army and the Xiazhou National Army, which had no food and grass supply and were leaderless in front of Langya Pass, had already surrendered to the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

Xiao Shizhu has not used them, he just regarded them as a killer weapon, and created an illusion that the war of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in the south of Dongyi Continent was still going on.

In fact, these nearly 100,000 troops have been trained by Xuanshui and Tanuki for nearly a month. And during this period, the warm attitude of the Nine Shadow Country Army towards the surrender of troops like a spring breeze not only made these ghost soldiers no longer confused about the future, but also loyal to the Nine Shadow Country.

Now is the time to use them. Although Xiao Shizhu once asked Xuanshui to convey his promise to these troops that he would never use them against their former comrades-in-arms, the Corpse Soul Army was not their comrades-in-arms, but their enemies.

Xiao Shizhu believed that with this army to fight the corpse soul army, their courage in killing the enemy would definitely be no less than that of the ghost soldiers of the other Nine Shadow Kingdoms.

"Inform Gonggong to summon his fleet of sailors on the Yellow Springs Sea to be on standby at any time, and all of them will immediately enter the first-class combat readiness (the highest level of combat readiness in the Nine Shadows Kingdom). Taking advantage of Shenji's response, when he memorized his explanation, Xiao Shizhu thought for a while that he would never attack with only the army of the Corpse Country.

Xiao Shizhu boldly guessed that the villain's ambitious Xubi corpse was a villain, and he would definitely secretly contact and instigate the Xudu army of the King of Xiazhou and the King of Yama to take advantage of the fire and rob.

Moreover, the news that he was in Dongyizhou had already spread, and perhaps Emperor Xudu would also take the opportunity to intervene, after all, there were not many opportunities for Xiao Shizhu's side to have insufficient military strength, and eliminating Xiao Shizhu was something that Emperor Xudu had been dreaming of for several years.

The best and worst plans, Xiao Shizhu must deal with each other.

In the past few years, the Nine Shadows Kingdom has not only five water divisions in the open sea, but also inland river water divisions to escort and transport the rivers and waterways in Xuanyan Continent and Yunmeng Continent.

And Xiao Shizhu's five major sailors have gradually developed from a small special task force to a large number of joint formations with diverse ships.

And in the past six months, Lin Cong has also been in Aoki County, and he has been ordered to secretly form a new sailor. The same is true of the sparrowhawks on Daoshan Island. Even if the entire fleet of the sailors of the Beiyin Dynasty was dispatched, even if the sailors of the Nine Shadows Kingdom met the enemy head-on, they would not end up in a complete defeat.

The Nine Shadows Kingdom is growing day by day, and as long as the subordinates are appropriate, they will not be completely beaten.

"Mobilize the young and middle-aged people in the east and west of Manjiang City and all the cities and counties in the south to defend the city. Xiao Shizhu groaned slightly, paced around the pavilion, and said, "Let the sparrowhawks on Daoshan Island also be ready for battle, and be ready for my call at any time." ”......

The sweaty Wheel King, riding a horse with a body like a huge ancient ape, with long hair as white as snow, but his limbs were red hair, which was in stark contrast to the white hair on his body, galloping on the mountain road of Luo Yu Mountain, towards the Six Heavens Divine Ghost Palace on the main peak.

Behind him was a stack of notebooks wrapped in yellow cloth.

Zhu Yan panted and ran away, and the shadows of the trees on both sides swept away. The Wheel King riding on its back was also bumped one after another, and was almost bumped off Zhu Yan's back several times.

But the Wheel King did not restrain for this, but frequently whipped Zhu Yan's buttocks, making Zhu Yan feel pain and run faster.

In less than a cup of tea, this Zhu Yan carried the Wheel King to the top of the towering Luo Yu Mountain. In front of the gate of the Wumendao Palace due south, the King of the Wheel grabbed the reins and shouted to the guards guarding the palace gate: "Hurry up the book, you need to present it to Your Majesty!"

When one of the forbidden soldiers heard this, he turned around and rushed into the palace, and the Wheel King also turned over at this time, and then subconsciously tightened the yellow cloth burden he was carrying.

After a while, the departing forbidden army turned back again and said to the Wheel King, "Please come to the Soul Destroying Hall to meet the Wheel King." ”。

The Wheel King snorted and strode towards the palace. He shuttled from pavilion to pavilion, and found the Soul Destroying Hall with ease.

Standing at the door, he saluted behind a full robe in the hall, and said loudly: "The king of the minister wheel has come to see Your Majesty." ”。

Sitting in the shadows of the depths of the main hall, the Emperor Xudu on the throne of the Purple Sandalwood Cloud Dragon Pattern said softly: "Come in." ”。

The Wheel King entered in response, and after standing still in front of Emperor Xudu, he hurriedly took off the package he was carrying. When he took out the notebook, he quietly glanced at the Emperor Xudu.

Emperor Xudu seems to be in a good mood today, and the whole ghost is full of red light. The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and there was a faint smile.

In the flash of light, the Wheel King had already guessed that Emperor Xudu had ordered the King of Equality to develop firearms, and a breakthrough had been made. That's why this cloudy day will be in a good mood.

"Your Majesty, the city of Poor Mountain is broken, and the female leader retreats north. However, before retreating, she bombarded our artillery positions with heavenly fire, so General Ji Meng's men suffered many casualties. After opening the first notebook, the Wheel King's eyes swept over the black and white letters, and he said: "General Ji Meng was also injured by the explosion, but the southern gate of the bear country has been opened. ”。

Poor Mountain Castle is the southern gate of Youxiong Country, and once it is breached, the Xudu army will enter Youxiong Country from the south without hindrance. This is also the reason why Ji Meng has been biting the poor mountain city to death.

"Well, war, it's not normal without death, and it's good to be able to open the southern gate of the bear country. Emperor Xudu, who was in a good mood, leaned back on the back of his chair, closed his eyes slightly as if he was napping, and said leisurely: "Distribute a large number of firearms to Ji Meng, and inform all the troops fighting on the Western Front not to let go of the Youxiong Kingdom and the Lingshan Kingdom." At the same time, speed up the recruitment of other ghost countries, and incorporate Fenglinzhou into the territory of the Northern Yin Dynasty as soon as possible. ”。

"No. The Wheel King nodded in response and opened the second notebook.

"Secret report, Xiao Shizhu appeared in Dongyizhou, although there are not many troops around him, but he has been stationed in Manjiang City in Xiazhou State. Then, the Wheel King looked at the contents of the notebook and read it leisurely.

"What?" Emperor Xudu, whose eyes widened suddenly, Huo Di straightened up and stared at the Wheel King in front of him.

"Xiao Shizhu appeared in Dongyizhou, probably to supervise the war. The Wheel King, who was startled by his sudden move, was stunned and cautiously returned.

Xiao Shizhu is scheming, and most of the time there is no bottom line, Emperor Xudu has been taught many times, if Xiao Shizhu is not in Yuque City, but went to Dongyizhou. The Emperor Xudu's plan to seize Dongyizhou, the granary of the underworld, may come to naught with the arrival of this ghost.

He can ignore the bear country, and he can not even look at the corpse, but Xiao Shizhu is the one who can definitely attract the attention of the Emperor Xudu, and there is no one.

Emperor Xudu, who was still in a good mood, suddenly felt angry in his heart at this moment.

In silence, he and the Wheel King stared at each other for a long time, the look of anger on his face gradually receded, and the eyes of Emperor Xudu, who had regained his calm complexion, lit up, and asked leisurely: "Does the secret report say that Xiao Shizhu doesn't have many troops around him?"

"Yes, it is said that there are only five Mooncha and tens of thousands of troops. "I don't know that it's the Wheel King of Xiancha, confusing Xiancha with Guanyuecha.

"What?" But Emperor Xudu was shocked again, and his eyes widened a little wider than before: "Where did the Nine Shadows come from?"

"The minister doesn't know this very well, but that's what is written in this secret report. The Wheel King hurriedly lowered his head and looked at the secret report carefully, and after making sure that he had not read it wrong, he said: "The secret report mentioned that Xiao Shizhu entered Manjiang City with five flying warships with great fanfare. ”。

Emperor Huo Ran got up, strode to the front and back of the Wheel King, snatched the notebook, and suddenly gasped after looking at it closely.

"Quickly assemble our eastern naval division, and the army will overwhelm Dongyizhou. Feeling threatened, the Emperor Xudu ordered sharply after a brief pause.
