Beacon fire.

- the name of the billowing fire and endless smoke.

Yu Chen knew this thing, and he had seen it.

Because in this world, communication is not as convenient as in the previous life.

And with the terrifying territory of Great Xia, if something happens to a remote place, and then let people quickly spread it all the way to the capital, when the emperor sees the information, I am afraid that the daylily will be cold.

So in this case, a way of communication called Beacon City came into being.

On the official road post station and the city in Great Xia, a beacon tower is set up every dozens of miles.

Once there is an emergency, the beacon fire will be lit immediately, and the beacon tower will soon be transmitted to the capital.

And the seriousness of this way of communication is also strictly forbidden to use in ordinary times, according to Yu Chen's knowledge, there is only one kind of news that can be transmitted by beacon fire.

- War.

Either a foreign invasion or a ...... Rebellion.

When war broke out, wolf smoke was ignited, and according to different burning methods, the Great Xia Cabinet would decipher it and convert it into concise text information, which was used for the purpose of quickly transmitting information.

The last time Yu Chen saw this thing was when Jiangzhou fell, and the 50,000 demon clan was put in by the remnants of the Shenwu King. The black-red wolf smoke was dyed red all the way from Mobei to Jiangzhou at that time.

Now, it's burning again.

It can only say one thing.

- Something is wrong.

At the same time, the heavenly bell rang.

The calm capital was awakened in an instant!

Only half an hour later, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the relatives of the emperor and the country, gathered in the court!

On the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Qiyuan's face was serious.

His Royal Highness, the National Teacher Nanshenjun, Song Xiang, and the Imperial Historian...... The princes of Gon stood with their heads bowed.

Above the huge court, the atmosphere is depressed and solidified, and the needles can be heard!

You look at me, you look at me, I look at you, and I don't know what happened!

Finally, Emperor Qiyuan took a deep breath, looked around at His Highness, and said in a deep voice,

"Zhuqing, the beacon is in flames, the wolf smoke transmits the message, the Mobei urgent letter, the demon clan invades, the Juque falls, and the border pass is urgent!"

When the words fell, the entire court was as silent as death.

Countless civil and military, raise their heads, you look at me, I look at you, I can't believe it.

- What demon, what race, what invasion, what attack?

They would rather believe that it was the remnants of the Shuntian rebels who came over, rather than believe that the demon clan of the turtle sun in the cold and bitter north dared to attack the Mobei border pass.

There is no other reason, it is precisely because in the past few hundred years, the demon clan has almost been pressed to the ground by Great Xia and rubbed!

Although the demon clan is gifted and all the clans are soldiers, you must know that among the demon kings of the demon clan, the most powerful is the demon king who is equivalent to the consummation of the gods.

If it weren't for the cold and bitterness of the northern realm, where the luck of the demon clan was, the human power would have been infinitely weakened and suppressed.

The radical emperors of Great Xia had already bulldozed the northern border!

What?

The emperor of the conservatives, you ask?

Conservatives only feel that the radicals are too conservative.

That's the case anyway.

The significance of the existence of the demon clan in the north is because there is no benefit in exterminating them, and the sacrifice is far greater than the gain - after all, that place is completely unsuitable for human existence.

The second is to serve as a whetstone to sharpen the army of Great Xia, so that it will not be corrupted and weakened by comfort.

Now you're telling me that the whetstone jumped up and wanted to break the knife?

What about playing?

This was the first reaction of the ministers when they heard this.

- Your Majesty, are you kidding?

But obviously, no.

Emperor Qiyuan's face was so heavy that he was about to drip water, and it was impossible to joke with them about this kind of thing.

For the doubts and confusion of many ministers, he only explained one sentence.

"——The seven peak demon kings of the northern demon clan have all broken through to the realm of entering the Dao."

At that moment, Jin Luan Hall gasped!

The pinnacle demon king, corresponding to the perfection of the gods.

It is also the highest combat power of the demon clan in the north.

This pattern has been going on for hundreds of years.

Now, the Seven Great Demon Kings have suddenly broken through to the Dao realm?

When everyone listened, they only felt ...... It's like a dream.

You must know that in the current Great Xia, there are only two people who have entered the Tao, a new national teacher who has just broken through, and Song Xiang, who can only be in the nest......

The demon clan has seven more at once?

This is not the ancestral tomb emitting green smoke, this is the ancestral tomb burned to the point that there is no slag left, and it can't be burned out!

"Therefore, I announced that the whole country of Great Xia has entered a state of wartime alert, and Zhou Zhi is appointed as the general of Tiance, leading troops to Mobei, leveling the demon clan, and protecting the mountains and rivers of Great Xia!"

Emperor Qiyuan stood up and took a deep breath.

When the words fell, many ministers were excited!

Zhou Zhu?

The Evil Star?

That madman who thinks the most radical radicals in the court are too radical?

An old man slowly walked out of the crowd, holding the iron dragon crutches, and arched his hand, "Minister...... Listen to orders! ”

The words fell, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, brewing behind these three words!

So, everyone looked at this rickety figure and finally understood.

- Why did the "trivial matter" of the death of the Eighth Emperor a month ago bring this evil star?

I'm afraid that the things in the north have been foreshadowed, and Emperor Qiyuan has taken precautions.

Inexplicably, they thought of the overseas cult cultivator who had fled to the north more than a month ago.

In my heart, I faintly realized something.

A temporary rush to the court, it didn't take long, and after saying what should be said, it was naturally over.

It's just that when everyone went in, they laughed, and when they came out, their faces were almost wrinkled.

Then, at a moment and three moments, a holy decree was issued from the palace.

——The whole country of Great Xia, wartime alert!

After tomorrow's sacrifice to the heavens and the expedition ceremony, Zhou Zhi, the general of Tiance, followed the Tiansi and went to Mobei to quell the rebellion!

At the same time.

Mobei border pass.

The majestic Great Wall, terrifying endless formations, impregnable.

On the hundred-foot-high towering city wall, in the dark holes, the cylindrical steel holes flickered with cold light, exuding a dangerous light.

A soldier dressed in pure black Jiazhou and armed with a sword stood on the city wall like a steel sculpture, looking at the giant gate with gunsmoke in the distance.

- Juque Pass, the buffer zone between the territory of humanity and the demon race, nominally speaking, does not belong to either the humanity and the demon race.

But despite this, the humanitarians who are in an advantageous position still built a fortress in the natural Xiongguan Pass of Juque Pass, as an outpost of the border pass of the Great Wall of Mobei.

For a long time, Juque Pass has been a forbidden place for the demon clan.

Anyone who stepped into it was greeted with a terrifying blow.

But two days ago, there was an accident.

That night, the Northern Sky Dome flickered, and the bright pillars of light rose to the sky, a full seven paths, connecting the heavens and the earth!

The seven demon clan powers, who symbolized the peak of the demon king, broke through that crucial step!

Immediately afterwards, before the generals of the Mobei border pass came back to their senses, the seven demon kings who had just broken through were in full swing, infected and killed!

The endless terrifying demonic light illuminates the entire sky!

The Juque Pass, which was an outpost, was instantly bulldozed by the seven demon kings in just a quarter of an hour!

Then, countless demon soldiers stepped into the Juque Pass from the northern demon country!

In the early morning, the entire northern sky was shrouded in clouds made of billowing black demonic energy!

Prepare for a day, sharpen your knives, and attack at any time!

At this moment, Xiao Tiexin, who is the general of the Mobei Border Pass, is standing on the wall of the Mobei Great Wall, looking at the endless demon clan that has occupied the Juque Pass, his face is as heavy as water!

Previously, after Empress Qi died and King Shenwu's conspiracy was exposed, the imperial court issued a killing order and killed all the henchmen and generals of King Shenwu on the northern border of Mobei and wiped them out.

And Xiao Tiexin, a border general who has always been at odds with King Shenwu, took the position and sat on the position of chief general.

But it didn't take long to sit in this position before something happened.

Xiao Tiexin looked towards the Juque Pass, which had been occupied.

Let's look at those humane soldiers who were originally stationed in Juque Pass, and were captured by those demon clans who drank blood.

The other party seemed to know that they were watching, put their faces away, pulled those captives out, and gnawed them like bones, and devoured them all!

The roar of the demon clan and the howl of human beings are like the prelude to war, and the curtain has begun!

"General! Subordinates, please fight! Please let your subordinates lead the troops and kill the demon clan without leaving a piece of armor!! ”

At this time, beside Xiao Tiexin, a young general's nails were pinched into the palm of his hand, his face was red with anger, and he gritted his teeth!

Xiao Tiexin glanced at him and shook his head.

"General!" The young general roared angrily and cried blood!

"Shut up !!"

Xiao Tiexin finally couldn't help it and roared angrily!

"Do you think I don't want to kill the border at once and crush those demons to ashes?!

But have you ever thought about it, why did they only occupy Juque and did not dare to attack the border pass?!

It is because this northern border city of the desert is guarded by a great array of national fortunes, even if they are the demon kings of the Dao, they must avoid its edge!

These beasts, these evil things they are doing now are provoking you to anger! Anger us!

Once we want to fight out of the border pass and open the border city, there will be a momentary gap in the Great Wall National Fortune Array, and the seven demon kings will take this opportunity to tear apart the Great Wall of the border pass and drive straight in!

At that time, we will be dead, and we will be a hundred, but it is you, my wife, children, and parents who will suffer, and it will be hundreds of people in Daxia! ”

Under the almost roaring scolding, the young general finally calmed down.

He saw Xiao Tiexin turn his head, he was already in tears, gritting his teeth!

"So, we have to wait! You must guard the border and wait for the imperial court to come to help! Wait for the Heavenly Master! Wait for the Blood Sea General! ”

Xiao Tiexin clenched his fists,

"—and then all the enemies under this city will be ...... Crush the bones and scatter ashes! ”

The young general, carried away by anger, finally calmed down.

Xiao Tiexin patted him on the shoulder, and was about to say something.

But suddenly, he saw the young general looking at the north, and his expression suddenly stiffened.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Tiexin frowned.

Before the young general could reply, a hoarse, old voice sounded from behind him.

"—Who do you say you're going to ...... Broken bones and ashes? ”

Xiao Tiexin turned his head suddenly, only to see a group of soldiers, who had already turned into corpses lying on the ground!

And a rickety old man in a black robe was standing on the city wall, looking at him mockingly.

In an instant, Xiao Tiexin's whole body froze.

An indescribable chill rushed up from the heels and straight to the brain!
