"Puff ......"

Three guards in a row were shot through the throat, and blood splattered from their mouths and fell to the ground, trembling for a few seconds before losing their lives, and lying there straight and motionless.

"Damn the deer demon!" Xu Ying gritted his teeth and said, "Come on, take my bow!"

The two guards immediately carried a big bow, cast in pure iron, and the veteran Xu Ying suddenly pulled the bow away, put a special giant arrow about one meter long on the bow, and shot out in an instant, in the jungle in the distance, a deer demon fell to the ground in response, and the arrow just shot through her heart, nailing it to the rock behind her.

"The old general is a good archery!" Lin Muyu couldn't help but cheer.

Xu Ying smiled slightly: "The young general praised it falsely, Xu Ying has no great achievements in this life, but he has practiced a good arm strength, plus this iron bow, and his wish to be able to defend the border for the empire has been fulfilled." ”

Wei Qiu also took out the Demon Devouring Bow, and with a few arrows in a row, he shot and killed several snake men climbing on the edge of the city, and he only shot the eyes and neck, which were not scaled, and his archery skills were also extraordinary.

Xu Ying's eyes widened, and he was impressed by Wei Qiu: "Ha, I didn't expect that there would be such an archery master in the Imperial Forest Guard, which really impressed the old man!"

Lin Muyu's gaze stayed in the dense demon army under the city, and said, "Do they keep attacking like this?"

"Yes. ”

Tang Zhen said: "They use snake people as shields, but the real main force of killing is the deer demon, those hateful deer demon arrows are extremely accurate, and half of the soldiers we died in battle were killed by bows and arrows." ”

"Isn't there anything we can do?"

"Yes, go out of the city to fight!" Tang Zhen smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance, and said: "Young General, look at that valley, when General Yuwenxie was in charge of the army, he ordered the army to go out of the city to meet the battle, and it was in that valley that he was besieged by more than 150,000 demon troops, and our 70,000 troops were all buried outside the pass." ”

Outside the city, the army of snake people is still attacking, many snake people use an iron hook claw, wear the hook claw on the hand, and embed the hook claw into the outer wall of the town demon pass that has been in disrepair for a long time, and climb up step by step, so that the wall outside the pass now seems to be climbing countless reptiles, densely attacking the city.

Wei Qiu saw that his scalp was numb, and he said in a low voice: "Rule, in the long run, I'm afraid this town demon pass will not last for a few days." ”

"Hmm. ”

Lin Muyu nodded, and said with a lot of concern: "Let's go, go back to the camp, send more people to defend the city, and we must not lose it." ”

"Yes, Major General!"

......

Returning to the big tent of the Chinese army, everyone sat on the sand table with a frown, Lin Muyu was silent, playing with the delicate gold ornament on the hilt of the dragon spirit sword.

Tang Zhen hugged his fists and said: "Major General, being so passive will only make our wounded soldiers more and more, and morale will become more and more low, can the Major General have a way to deal with it?"

"Not yet. Lin Muyu shook his head, his eyes fell on Xu Ying, and said, "Old General Xu has dealt with the demon clan, so he should know the weakness of the demon clan, right?"

Xu Ying groaned and said: "Last time, the 300,000 army of the demon clan invaded the land of Middle Earth, it was the god Hou Yong Yifan who used a trick to introduce the demon army into the open terrain, and then used 200,000 imperial heavy cavalry to cut the 300,000 demon army to pieces, but ...... We simply don't have that many heavy cavalry right now, so this method simply won't work. ”

Wei Qiu looked at Lin Muyu and asked, "Old General Xu has already said, control, what are you thinking?"

Lin Muyu frowned and said: "I'm thinking, the loss of the demon clan is not small, they are so desperate, what do they want to get from us? If they want to conquer Lanyan City, they are not enough to see with this amount of troops!"

A captain of the Tianchong Legion gritted his teeth: "These demons are not human beings in the first place, no matter what they want, the only thing we need to do as imperial soldiers is to kill them all!"

Lin Muyu smiled: "Of course, the truth is true, but thanks to Yu Wenxue, we don't have the strength to kill the hundreds of thousands of demon clan troops in front of us at present." ”

"What does the young general think?" asked Xu Ying.

Lin Muyu lightly pressed the table, stood up and said, "Tomorrow I will attack with fire, create a line of fire under the city wall, and force their half-fox people to come out, I will have a direct conversation with their leader." ”

"What?!"

That day, the commander of the Chong Legion was dumbfounded: "Young General, do you want to talk to the people of the Demon Clan? Aren't you afraid that others will charge you with treason?"

Lin Muyu smiled: "Let him be, he can't take care of it." ”

......

That night, 10,000 guards entered the rear jungle to cut down dead wood, collect beech oil, black beech oil produced from the black beech tree, when it meets the fire, it is a natural fire attack material, although not much, but the fire is enough.

The cold wind of the night blew on the demon control gate, which was extremely cold.

A bright moon hung high in the air, and the army of snake people finally retreated like a tide, but instead of a group of lizard troops, about 10,000 people, one by one, their brown eyes glowed with golden light in the moonlight, and Xinzi spit it out "silkily", with a shield in one hand and a shovel in the other, he quickly came to the city, and waved the shovel at the bottom of the city wall, actually digging the mud!

"Damn!"

Xu Ying stroked his white beard and sneered: "This group of lizardmen...... Are you trying to dig into our corners?"

Lin Muyu saw the appearance of the lizard man clearly by the moonlight, the lizard head looked very terrifying and very scary, but with such a head, what wisdom could he have, so he said: "The lizard man does not have such wisdom, it must be a half-fox man commanding this battle." ”

"Major General, what should we do?" asked Xu Ying.

"How deep is the foundation of the Demon Suppression Pass?"

"About 20 meters. ”

"That's good, let them dig and fill it with rolling stones tomorrow. ”

"Yes!"

The night was cold, Lin Muyu wrapped his cloak tightly, and looked into the past, the western border of the empire established a "Great Wall", shuttling between steep mountains like a long dragon, which is about the biggest reason why the demon clan cannot advance eastward, and the demon pass is located in the flattest terrain of this Great Wall, blocking the invasion of the demon clan.

"Go back, and I'll continue to patrol for a while. Lin Muyu said.

"Yes, Major General!"

Xu Ying, Tang Zhen, Wei Qiu and others went back to the camp one after another, while Lin Muyu carried the dragon spirit sword and walked along the city pass, and after walking a few miles, he arrived at the top of the mountain, looking west, a clear light, and the endless jungle was like an ocean giving birth to this group of demon clans, in fact, in Lin Muyu's opinion, this group of demon clans is more like half-orcs, not human or beast, but it is pitiful, but what do these monsters want to do now?

Looking down at the distance between the wall and the ground, about 30 meters, Lin Muyu groaned, took a deep breath and looked at the several guards around him, and the guards also looked at him.

"Major General, do you want to go west?"

"Hmm. Lin Muyu nodded: "Stay here, wait for me to come back, don't act rashly." ”

"Yes!"

Swept into the darkness, the volley bloomed with a faint golden light, and the gourd vine quickly lingered on the city, weakening the impact of Lin Muyu, but jumping down from a height of nearly 30 meters was still a little scary, and the whole person rolled into the weeds with a "snap", fell to the knees and hurt, stood up with a whimper, returned the dragon spirit sword to the sheath, stepped into the jungle, and disappeared into the field of vision of a group of guards in a blink of an eye.

......

Not far away, there is a big camp of the demon clan in front of them, but there are few lights in their big camp, because the snake people, lizard people, and bear people are all afraid of fire, but the half-fox people and deer demons have no natural fear of flames, Lin Muyu walked cautiously, avoiding the camp of a group of snake people, and the moans of the snake people kept coming from his ears, and the onslaught during the day also produced a lot of wounded soldiers, and they were being cured at this time, and the way to cure was some herbs and ancient witchcraft, which I really didn't understand.

Demon camps are scattered throughout the jungle, just like their way of life.

Lin Muyu walked nearly five miles, and finally there was a dim fire in the jungle in front of him, and when he got closer, he found that there were actually camp tents here, and tents made of gray cloth were all over the jungle.

"Rustling ......"

Not far away, there was a sound of Suosuo, a black shadow was slowly moving in the jungle, Lin Muyu couldn't help but nervously hold the long sword, and followed all the way.

Just when he was about to approach, he suddenly jumped up, his palm opened and the power of the martial soul was twisted, and the gourd vines rose from the ground, and in a blink of an eye, this black shadow was entangled, Lin Muyu pounced, opened his hand to cover the other party's mouth, the long sword was unsheathed, and the blade of the flame lingering was directly against the opponent's neck, and said in a low voice: "Don't scream, otherwise I will kill you!"

However, under the firelight of the Dragon Spirit Sword, Lin Muyu saw that the person in front of her was a young girl, looking a little bewitching, with a pair of fox ears on top of her head, and a fluffy tail swaying behind her.

Lin Muyu was stunned, he didn't expect that the half-fox people still had women, but after thinking about it, how could they reproduce without women, and couldn't help but laugh at himself secretly.

"If you don't say anything, I'll let go, or I'll kill you. He said coldly: "I nodded if I agreed." ”

The fox girl nodded quickly, and Lin Muyu let go of her hand and asked, "Who are you?"

The fox girl's eyes widened, and she said in a vague word, "I...... I am the lady-in-waiting of the Holy Maiden......"

"Holy Maiden?"

"Well, the Holy Maiden of the Endless Forest Fire God Sect. ”

Lin Muyu was a little dazed, and said, "Sue me, the demon clan has been dormant for decades, why did it suddenly attack the Human Empire?"

A trace of panic flashed in the girl's eyes, and she shook her head and said, "I...... I can't say it, otherwise I would have betrayed the Holy Maiden. ”

"Say it or not!"

Lin Muyu's sword blade pressed against her snow-white neck.

The girl closed her eyes, tears flowed, her tail wagged behind her, her ears trembled, and she cried, "Kill me, but it's a pity that the carrot can't serve the saint anymore......"

"It's really unyielding...... Lin Muyu sighed.
