Chapter 82: The Situation Changes

More than ten years have passed since the border gates, and it is already late summer and early autumn. Relying on the arrows sent by Wei Caiyi, plus the generals guarding the various passes, they met together and discussed the skills of fighting the flying demons, which can be regarded as re-stabilizing the situation at the border pass.

Since the gourd pass was broken that night, no other pass gate has been broken. However, the supply of arrows is still scarce.

Xu Huaigu suspected that Wei Caiyi had calculated it in advance, otherwise after every defensive battle, the arrows that could be exchanged for her in the statistical battle report could only be prepared for the next time to defend the city, not a single point, where did it come from so coincidentally?

This is the kind of situation that caused the generals of each level to be worried about guarding the city, for fear that the demon clan would come to a big attack, and the arrows would not be enough on the spot, and this would be the end.

But Wei Caiyi is very dead on the matter of changing arrows, and she must follow her rules, and there is no room for maneuver at all.

However, this ten years have passed, although there are also a large number of attacks by the demon clan, but fortunately, they have passed without danger, so the seven passes are still vertically and horizontally, firmly holding the front in the south of Dayu Kingdom, and not giving the demon clan the slightest advantage.

Gradually, not only did the arrows begin to run out, but the various materials prepared before the battle, such as oil and grain and grass, began to bottom out, which meant that the defensive battle of the seven levels was coming to an end.

Lu Zijin has also been busy planning the retreat routes of the troops in various passes, as well as the future battle plans.

And Lin Cangyang's side is also beginning to prepare, preparing to pass false information to the demon clan as a demon sect, and exchange the trust of the demon clan at the cost of seven levels.

The situation at the border is already clear, and then look at the monks' side. As soon as the news of Wei Caiyi came out, it naturally caused an uproar among the monks.

For most monks, not to mention the rich reward, it is to be able to see this legendary eleventh realm great monk with their own eyes, and they have no regrets in this life!

Not to mention being able to do business with her. Most of the monks are young, and their cultivation is generally between the six or seven realms, and if they want to kill the big demons in the same realm, they must not fight with their lives.

As for the demon clan of the higher realm, the eighth realm or the ninth realm, this is something they can't even think of, but there are still top-notch people who want to earn a handful of immortal soldiers from Wei Caiyi's hands and return to the sect, including Yin Zishi, Xia Ying, Li Siqing and others.

In any case, the monks were inspired by Wei Caiyi's rule to kill demons more and more bravely, but with it, there was also a greater risk, and two more monks died on the battlefield because they were too radical in this decade.

Why did they lose their lives so recklessly? Originally, the matter of defending the city was to wait for work, as long as it could prevent the attack of the demon clan, but standing on the city wall, most of the monks could kill ordinary demon clans, and they did not count, so some people relied on their own cultivation, and simply jumped off the city wall, and found some demons in the demon clan army to kill.

At first, this trick was very effective. One person jumped off the city wall, ordinary demon clans can't get close, it won't take long to kill several demon clans of three or four realms, if they touch the five realms, they can also win after a fierce battle for a period of time, so that a city defense battle can be very rewarding.

When the rest of the monks saw this, they were naturally envious in their hearts, so they followed suit, but they didn't know that the demon clan had already set their sights on them.

When they were having fun, there were demons from the seven realms and eight realms to attack. If you are lucky, you can still rely on the offensive on the side of the city wall to retreat, if you are unlucky, you can only die on the battlefield, and the two dead monks died for this reason, but it is no wonder that others.

Regarding this matter, Xu Huaigu specially reminded Yu Qin, so that she agreed not to take risks.

Rao is like this, he also has to send a letter to Yin Zishi, and ask him to take care of Yu Qin with thousands of instructions.

In this regard, after Yin Zishi solemnly agreed, Xu Huaigu was relieved. In the past ten years, Xu Huaigu has naturally not been idle.

Where there is a large-scale demon clan attacking the city, he will ask Yingying to go over. Gradually, Xu Huaigu's subordinates already had the heads of two Great Demons of the Seven Realms, five Great Demons of the Six Realms, and the demon clans of the Five Realms and below could not be counted, so they didn't bother to care.

However, despite his outstanding achievements, Xu Huaigu could only rank second in that book of military exploits, the first was Li Zi, who was one realm lower than Xu Huaigu, and she already had a big demon in the Eight Realms and three heads and seven realms under her account.

You must know that Li Zi himself is only in the Seven Realms, and logically speaking, it is extremely difficult to kill the demon clan who is in the same realm as himself, not to mention crossing the border to kill a demon in the Eight Realms, which is not amazing.

Even if Li Zi's talent is extremely high, there is also a great risk. Regarding this matter, Xu Huaigu also told Li Zi, but she just said that the master gave her something to save her life, as long as she didn't come to the Great Demon of the Ten Realms, at least she could save her life, and Xu Huaigu couldn't say more.

Xu Huaigu naturally wanted to fight to cut off the head of the Great Demon of the Eighth Realm or even the Ninth Realm, but how could the Great Demon who had cultivated to this realm be an idle person?

Most of them have rough skin and thick meat, and they immediately retreat when they see that the situation is not right. The south is the realm of the demon clan, and Xu Huaigu does not dare to chase deeply.

A few days ago, there was a big demon in the Eight Realms, who had been fighting with Xu Huaigu for more than an hour, and when he saw that he was about to get it, Xu Huaigu didn't chase it.

I'm really worried that this is a trap, I'm afraid that there are other big demons in ambush. As for the Nine Realms beetle snake that had fought with Xu Huaigu before, he led several troops to attack Tanglin Pass after that, but he only watched from a distance and did not take action in person.

Xu Huaigu stood on the city wall and looked at it from a distance, both of them were afraid of each other and did not dare to fight again.

Although as long as you can cut off the head of this beetle snake, you can get the immortal war robe, but with Xu Huaigu's concentration, this temptation can still be resisted.

Unless he was sure, Xu Huaigu would not take this risk. And so the days went by. Anyway, on this day, there was news that a large number of demon clans were attacking the city from Tanglin Pass, and Xu Huaigu rushed to support as usual.

The beetle snake also came this time, but it still didn't make a move, so Xu Huaigu didn't care about it, and only took out his sword on the city wall to defend against the demon clan.

Until the evening, after repelling the demon clan, he went to the camp tent of the monks in the Guannai, and after greeting everyone for a while, he wanted to return to Lu Zijin's side, but was stopped by a guard, who bowed his head and said, "You are Mr. Xu, right?" Don't be in a hurry to leave, our general has an invitation, saying that he has something to discuss with you. Chu Xiuyang wanted to find himself, Xu Huaigu had no choice, and immediately agreed.

He was afraid that it was an important matter, so he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately went to Chu Xiuyang's camp. As he approached the tent, he heard a voice of discussion from within.

"General Li, you send your men to the outside to count the number of dead and wounded of the demon clan; Captain Chen, you are responsible for counting the casualties of the officers and soldiers in the Guannei. Tonight will bear fruit, so I will ask for arrows from that side. The general, surnamed Li, hurriedly walked out of the tent, while Captain Chen remained in the tent.

Xu Huaigu had a bit of an impression of this surnamed Chen, that is, he was the archer who commanded the garrison of Tanglin Pass.

"General Chu...... "That Chen Duwei seemed to have something to say, so he stayed, and only he and Chu Xiuyang were left in the camp at this time.

"What's the matter, you say." He swallowed, looked around to make sure there was no one, and turned to look at the tent gate.

Xu Huaigu was about to go in, but when he saw him like this, he immediately dodged to the side and was not discovered by him.

"Captain Chen, please tell me something quickly. Rest assured, there's no one else here. Chen Duwei also felt that there was no one around, so he relieved his heart, frowned and said: "General Chu, there are not enough arrows, and the archers under my command are all miserable." Although General Lu gave arrows, it was too few, and if one point went down, each person could not even hold a quiver. If the archers have no arrows, they have no support, and many people do not even dare to go up the city walls. Chu Xiuyang sighed and said in a deep voice: "There is a shortage of arrows everywhere, and it is difficult for General Lu to do it. Now it's better than usual, it's good to have arrows, let your men grit their teeth and hold on for a while, and in the last ten, you have to hold on no matter what. Chen Duwei was a little puzzled and asked, "The last ten?" General, what do you mean by that? ”

"General Lu's order has come down, and if we hold on for the last ten years, we will be able to withdraw."

"Withdrawn? How's that going to work? Chen Duwei was taken aback and hurriedly said,

"If we withdraw, what about the other passes? Lips and teeth are cold! ”

"Seven levels will be withdrawn together."

"That's even worse! As soon as the seven-level defense line retreats, there will be no such dangerous passes to defend behind! Dayu is in danger! Chu Xiuyang just said lightly: "General Lu has his own plans over there, let's just obey the order." As soon as he heard this, Chen Duwei became more and more impatient, and said for a while: "But Lu Zijin is an outsider!" He is a man from Middle-earth, where does he care about the life or death of Dayuguo? Chu Xiuyang's brows furrowed, and she said solemnly: "Duwei Chen, please pay attention to your words. General Lu was born and raised in the Great Yu Kingdom, and he only went to Middle-earth later, but that was decades ago. At that time, I'm afraid it wasn't you! ”

"But ......"

"That's it! No, that's all! Chu Xiuyang sat down impatiently,

"You go and get busy with you, count the number of dead and wounded soldiers in the pass, and report it to me." Chen Duwei stopped arguing, and had to swallow his breath into his stomach.

After a moment of silence, he said again: "General Chu, I think we may be able to report more dead and wounded and take more arrows to better defend the city." Chu Xiuyang glanced at him sharply and said coldly, "Do you know what you're talking about?" Who can afford to lie about the military situation? ”

"But it's just a number, who but you and me? Besides, General Lu set such a rule, which is ridiculous enough, not to mention that we ......"

"Alright." Chu Xiuyang interrupted him and frowned,

"How do you report it to the top, this matter will be discussed again, so you have to report it to me, you can't hide it from me." When Duwei Chen heard that Chu Xiuyang was relieved, he felt that there was a drama in his heart, so he hurriedly agreed to come down and go down to do something.

As soon as he walked out of the camp, he happened to see Xu Huaigu standing outside the door, and he was startled. Xu Huaigu smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I didn't hear anything." Chen Duwei's heart sank, and he glanced back at Chu Xiuyang, who only urged: "You go and do your business, I'll settle it here." Chen Duwei glanced at Xu Huaigu angrily, turned his head and walked quickly.

Xu Huaigu walked into the camp tent and said with a smile: "You are not easy to be a general, it is difficult to do it on both sides!" ”

"How can there be a good livelihood in the world?" Chu Xiuyang shook his head helplessly, got up and poured him a glass of water,

"Please sit down, there are some things that I have to tell you in advance." Xu Huaigu smiled: "General, please speak." ”
