December 11, no return to the forest, heavy snowfall.

The road to the forest is rugged, only one of the mountain roads is relatively flat, and you can still use carriages and horses to transport materials, and this road is called the snake road, it is very tortuous, at this time the snake road has been covered by heavy snow, but from a distance, the number of food transportation teams of the Heavenly Empire is quite a lot, at least five thousand, a large group of people in the front team cleared the snow to clear the road, and the rear was a cavalry on war horses to help drag the grain cart stuck in the mud pit, and the group walked in a roundabout way, not very hard.

At the same time, there were two dragon knights hovering in the air, sending two dragon knights to protect the grain road, which shows how careful Chen Yu is in using his troops, but this time he is destined to fall behind.

On the mountain ridge behind the Snake Road, the dense iron horsemen and crossbowmen had already been prepared, the banners were hunting in the cold wind, and Liu Buyi, Sikong Yao and the others were staring at the two dragon knights in the air.

"Is there no problem?"

Liu Buyi frowned and said, "Are these two dragon knights blind, we are so close, and they actually turn a blind eye to the 10,000 army?"

Lin Muyu said: "Don't talk nonsense, our entire area here has been set up by Her Majesty the Female Killer, and even the dragon knight can't see it." ”

The female killer wore a white cloak and glared at Liu Buyi, making Liu Buyi's heartbeat almost stop.

Qin Yin smiled and said, "Then when will we act?"

"Don't worry, wait until all the grain trucks are on the snake road. Lin Muyu's eyes were cold, and he said: "There are at least 500,000 stone military rations, this is at least ten days' rations for Chen Yu's million-strong army, as long as we cut off their rations, Chen Yu will ask for life and death." ”

Sikong Yao chuckled, "How do we do it?"

"Let's take out the two dragon knights first. ”

Lin Muyu squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, and said: "Xiao Yin will go with me for a while, one by one, kill them before they release the Falcon, Xiao Xi led Buyi and Ah Yao to cover the past from the ground, remember, leave some alive, and try to ensure that their clothes and armor are intact." ”

"Why?" asked Liu Buyi.

Lin Muyu glanced at him with an idiot and said, "Tell me, what are we doing now?"

"Intercept their rations!"

"And yet?"

"No ......"

Lin Muyu raised his forehead and said: "Buyi, you stupid, you have to think of killing two birds with one stone, don't forget, there is at least one million stone granaries of Chen Yu in Lanhe County, twenty miles east of Dongning City, if you don't burn down the granaries of Lanhe County, I'm afraid Chen Yu can still hold out for a while, we can change into the clothes of the Tianjie Empire's grain transportation team here to blend into the granary of Lanhe County, and only then can we burn Chen Yu's last hope." ”

"The subordinates understand ......"

Liu Buyi hugged his fists and said: "Lin Shuai is really smart!"

"This is just the basic strategy of marching and fighting, you should read more books when you have time. ”

"Yes!"

......

After a stick of incense, the action began, and the drums of war on the mountain sounded in unison.

"Brush!"

Two rays of light rushed to the sky, Lin Muyu's Xuanyuan sword was already out of its sheath, and the blade slashed straight towards the dragon knight on the left, causing chaos!

"Huh?!"

The dragon knight hurriedly drew his sword to block, but where could he block it, Lin Muyu's sword borrowed the momentum of the mountain, and directly broke the dragon knight's dragon sword with great force, and the Xuanyuan sword was indestructible and cut into its armor, blood splashed up, and in an instant, this fifteen-fold cave heavenly cultivation dragon knight was killed.

And in the other direction, Qin Yin's Star Sword had also killed another dragon knight, and the first blow of Xi Yan Qi's slash - split, was full of lethality!

On the ground, the sound of killing was everywhere, Tang Xiaoxi turned into a flame and shuttled through the crowd of the grain transport army, holding the spear of Tigus, and the tip of the spear turned into a flame and flew out continuously, allowing Bai Ze mercenaries to seize the absolute dominance of the battlefield with almost no loss.

In less than ten minutes, most of the 5,000 grain transporters of the Heavenly Absolute Empire were killed, and the remaining more than 1,000 people surrendered one after another, and their will to fight did not seem to be very strong.

Under the instruction of Lin Muyu, Bai Ze's mercenaries imprisoned more than 1,000 cavalry, and Liu Buyi selected more than 1,000 elites, put on the clothes of grain carriers, and escorted a cart of military rations to Lanhe County.

Seeing the grain transport soldiers go away, Liu Buyi sighed: "More than 1,000 people were taught by me, Lin Shuai, do you think they can come back alive?"

"Most can't. Lin Muyu said.

Liu Buyi felt a chill in his heart: "But Lin Shuai...... You told them that as long as they burned the granary, they could enter the stables and grab the horses to escape......"

"If I hadn't said that, they wouldn't have wanted to go. ”

Lin Muyu exhaled a breath of hot air, rubbed his somewhat cold palms, and said, "I can only give them hope, but let them complete this impossible task." What kind of person is Chen Yu, he is calculating, his granary will definitely be heavily guarded, and it will be difficult to get out if he enters. ”

"But ......"

Liu Buyi was stunned.

Sikong Yao patted him on the shoulder and said: "Buyi, you should also understand the truth that Ci is not in charge of the army, you can't bear to let the soldiers die, this is the reason why you are qualified to be a general, but Brother A Yu can do this, this is the reason why he is qualified to be a marshal, if even he is like you, then this battle has already been lost." ”

Lin Muyu was a little silent, quietly turned around and sat on a stone, and didn't even sweep the snow off the stone.

"Are you alright?"

Qin Yin quietly accompanied her.

"It's fine. ”

Lin Muyu looked up at her and smiled happily: "I can overcome this mentality, for so many years, thousands of people have died fighting for me, but I know that I am right to do this, only in this way can fewer people die, and only in this way will the world be unified." ”

The female killer nodded approvingly.

Liu Buyi seemed to think for a long time and said, "Then what do we do now?"

"Continue to block the food routes of the Heavenly Empire, mine stones, and build fortresses at the perilous points of their retreat. Lin Muyu stood up and said, "Since we have formed an alliance with the Demon Spirit Clan, we can't lead the army of the Heavenly Absolute Empire to the Forest of No Return, I want to let Chen Yu's defeated army only borrow the way back from the Blackstone Empire, so that they can fight with the Blackstone Empire again." ”

Liu Buyi stood there stunned, and at this moment he understood what war was, war was death and killing, and it was calculation and strategy at any cost.

"Yes, my subordinates understand. ”

When he looked at Lin Muyu again, there was a lot of respect in his eyes, maybe as Sikong Yao said, he had too much to learn from Lin Muyu.

......

On the 15th, a raging fire broke out in the granary of Lanhe County, and Chen Yu immediately personally raised 30,000 troops to put out the fire.

After a day and a night, the fire was extinguished, but the granary was in ruins in the middle of the night, and the dust from the burning of grain, rice and rice fell from the sky, covering every corner of Lanhe County, making people desperate.

"Rustling ......"

Combat boots stepped on the muddy ground, Chen Yu was dressed in a golden uniform, his face was extremely ugly, and he said lightly: "Where is the military need?"

A senior general clenched his fists: "The minister is here." ”

"How much more military rations do we have, enough to last a few days?"

"The military rations reserved for each camp are enough for three days, and the remaining food in Lanhe County can support the entire army for about two days, that is, even if we reduce the daily rations, it can support the whole army for ten days at most. ”

"Is it only ten days?"

Chen Yu's eyes were cold: "What are you all doing to eat? When will the grain transport team arrive? Send my holy edict back to the cold city, and order Da Situ to supervise the grain and grass immediately, and go to do it immediately!"

"Your Majesty......" The quartermaster frowned, "Our grain route has been cut off by a group of mercenaries, even if we send someone to supervise the military rations, the grain will not reach Dongning Province." ”

"What a bastard!"

Chen Yu roared angrily: "What are the demon spirit clan trying to do?"

On the side, Liaoyang hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the army of the demon spirit clan has withdrawn five days ago, and most of them have returned to the forest of no return, it seems that ...... The Demon Emperor Maiden has given up on working with us. ”

"Capricious!"

Chen Yu landed on the wall with a palm, and suddenly a clear palm print, his brows tightened, and said, "We have no other way to do it for now?"

"Yes, we can send a small army to the surrounding cities to collect and buy military rations, but the number will not be too much, the only way is to break through Dongning City, there are more than fifty granaries in Dongning City, once breached, we will have endless food. Moreover, the guard Gong Shangming is just a powerless scholar. ”

"Gong Shangming, Lin Muyu's men are just defeated......"

Chen Yu took a deep breath and said: "The herald ordered the army to attack the city quickly, and within ten days we must capture Dongning City and cut off the head of Gong Shangming! Also, send a small force to collect food, even if it is a raid, you must get me food, and if you don't reduce the rations of the army, I can't let the soldiers go hungry while fighting." ”

"Yes, the last general obeys!"

......

A day later, the 500,000 troops of the Heavenly Absolute Empire attacked the city, and the entire Dongning City was plunged into a war.

Although Dongning City is a lonely city, it is rich in materials and the city is strong, but what seems even more anxious is the army of the Heavenly Absolute Empire that has lost its military food supply on the periphery.

The siege of the city lasted for three days, and both sides suffered heavy losses, and the city was full of corpses. The advantage of the Heavenly Absolute Empire is the number of dragon knights, more than 300 dragon knights hovering over the city, slaughtering soldiers, burning granaries, etc., doing everything, flashing the ancient and modern famous city of Dongning City almost became a ruin in a blink of an eye, the smoke pillar in the city soared into the sky, and the people were not able to make a living.

"Urgent!"

The herald panted and rushed into the big tent: "Marshal Qixuan, we just got the news that Bai Ze's mercenaries have been dispatched, and they have entered the Forest of No Return and have cut off the food route of the Heavenly Absolute Empire. ”

"Oh?"

Gong Shangming pressed his hand on the map on the table and said, "No wonder Chen Yu is attacking the city like crazy, it turns out that their supplies have been exhausted, hahaha, it's really good!

"Liu Buyi and Sikong Yao. ”

"This ...... It's unlikely, right?" Gong Shangming frowned and said: "Liu Buyi is just from a mud leg, and Sikong Yao is the pearl of the Tianji Sect's Sikong Ming, how could they be so to the point? ”

"Yes!"

Gong Shangming sat there racking his brains and muttered to himself, "Who the hell is it...... Who the hell is so powerful?"
