As night approached, the eastern sky was filled with fiery red. Jiuli has not seen such a splendid sky for several months, but it is like a red cloud after the rain, burning up most of the sky.

Mu Yuncheng stood on the Yinglong Pagoda with his hands in his hands, overlooking the entire imperial city. The continuous artillery fire for several days has made this fortified city full of holes, whether it is full of gloom or mourning, they all respond to the sentence: "There are no eggs under the nest." ”

The tower at the foot of the tower is in the Xuanyuan Hill, which was built by the Yellow Emperor to suppress the souls of the dead. Taihao raised troops to kill the Seven Saints of Heaven and moved the capital to Zhongzhou, and in order to suppress the resentment here, he ordered people to build an identical Yinglong Pagoda in the imperial city, this person is Mo Shoufang, the father of Mo Yiyue's grandfather Mo Xuansheng. Mo Shoufang was one hundred and seven years old, and after two dynastic changes, he was appointed as the master of the Heavenly Dynasty, and was called the Xuanguang of Kyushu by Taihao. This shows its strength.

And Taihao wants to build this Yinglong Tower, there is another theory. Legend has it that the Yinglong Tower of Xuanyuan Hill was built by Taihao's ancestor Shao Hao, and Shun passed the throne to Yu after the five emperors, although there is an allusion to Yao Shun Chan, Shun is also the descendant of Shao Hao, not an outsider. Yu passed on the throne of Emperor Qi, Emperor Qi passed on the throne of Taikang, Taikang gave birth to a daughter, and because of the weakness and incompetence of his brother Zhongkang, he gave way to the virtuous prime minister Jun Qi, and after the death of Jun Qi, he passed on the eldest son of the Seven Saints of Heaven. The imperial power of the clan has fallen to this point, so Taihao, who is the son of Zhongkang, raised troops not because the Seven Dao Holy Heavenly Sons were incompetent, but more because he wanted to regain the imperial power back into the hands of the clan.

After Taihao's death, the undead were summoned by Shaohao, the son of the demon, and entered Youzhou as a general. Later, because the Holy Spirit found that Shao Hao, who had the magic sword and unified Youzhou, was very threatening, he pretended to make peace with the Ming God and vowed not to interfere in the affairs of Youzhou again. But he used the peerless genius of the Mu family, Mu Wuwu, to assassinate Shaohao.

Mu Wuwu is a young hero, who broke into Youzhou alone, but was finally captured by the demons because he was outnumbered.

Mu Wuwu was enslaved by the demons in the bitter cold land of Youzhou for 17 years in endless trials and gladiatorial battles, and finally comprehended the highest meaning of swordsmanship under the guidance of the Hanshan immortals who lived in seclusion in Youzhou, and created the Tianxiao Six Swordsmanship that can compete with the power of heaven and earth. And with this sword technique, Shaohao was seriously injured and escaped from Youzhou.

After Shao Hao was injured, the Holy Spirit secretly killed him and replaced Shao Hao with an avatar, creating the phantom of the Demon Son of Heaven. But because he couldn't control the magic sword to cover the sky, he had no choice but to pass the position of the demon emperor to Shaohao's descendant general Taihao, so far, the Demon Son has been taken over by Taihao. And Taihao is not only a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, but also the great-grandfather of Emperor Gong Huaiyu, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are in the same room, just because the Tao is different, the so-called, good and evil are not separated.

......

The sky gradually darkened, and the ink color eroded the red glow little by little, Mo Yiyue leaned on the stone pillar at the top of the tower, and quietly looked at Mu Yuncheng from behind.

"Zhao Guangfuyuan can't quench his thirst, are you planning to stay in the imperial city and not leave?" Mo Yiyue could penetrate Mu Yuncheng's mind with just one glance, and seeing that he was reluctant to act, he knew that he intended to stay in the imperial city.

Mu Yuncheng sighed lightly, lowered his head and stroked Cangyun and said, "But you and me alone can't stop the army from breaking through the city." It seems that Rao is Emperor Gong's request for Huaiyu, and Mu Yuncheng does not intend to blindly obey it. Although he was weak in staying in the imperial city, he could protect Emperor Gong with his own line.

"Then withdraw from the Imperial City and hand over this place to the Hundred Miles Divine Whale. Although Mo Yiyue's voice was soft, every word shook Mu Yuncheng's heart. He did have such an idea, but after all, the imperial city was the capital of the dynasty, and once it was lost, the three armies would be shaken, and he was afraid that the morale would be greatly disadvantaged.

"As long as man lives, sooner or later this city will be ours. ”

"But if the imperial city is captured by the Baili Divine Whale, Sanmenxia will be attacked on the back, if Sanmenxia is lost, Zhongyang Pass will not be able to be saved, once these two passes are lost, it will be even more difficult for us to recapture Zhongzhou. Mu Yuncheng was very aware of the necessity of guarding the imperial city at this moment, because this was not only a matter of affecting the morale of the three armies, but also a strategic need.

"No, the reality should be exactly what you think. But Mo Yiyue didn't agree with Mu Yuncheng's idea, "The Xiliang army raised by the Baili Divine Whale is only 300,000, and the strong attack in the past few days has lost tens of thousands, and there are only 100,000 left." And Xiao Tian, the patriarch of the Tiger Clan of Batian Mountain, and Zhen Wu, the patriarch of the Mofengling Bear Clan, are all treacherous and cunning people, and the two of them led the crowd to besiege and not attack, and there are still 100,000 soldiers and horses left. In addition, the Baili Divine Whale secretly communicated with the Western Barbarian Chiyou clan and asked them to come to help. The hundreds of thousands of troops put together in this way are simply a rabble, and each has its own thoughts, once the imperial city falls, several people will definitely rebel, and they will never have time to take care of joining forces with the demons, let alone threatening Sanmenxia and Zhongyang Pass. ”

"I see. Mu Yuncheng was a little more relaxed at the moment, and said frankly to Mo Yiyue: "I intend to send Emperor Gong out of the city tonight and go to Zhao Guangfu's camp to make plans." ”

"I'm afraid that Emperor Gong will not will. Mo Yiyue was a little worried.

"It's all right, you go with me. Mu Yuncheng was full of confidence in this.

Suddenly, there were several loud horns, and then huge flints flew into the imperial city from all directions. The flint stone immediately shattered on the ruins of the house, turning into countless red points of light and continuing to burn, engulfing the ruins in front of them.

It is said to be a stone, but it is actually made of wood chips and special minerals.

Among them, cerium and lanthanum are two very rare substances in the wilderness, and they will burst out very violent sparks when they collide, which are extremely flammable. It usually needs to be soaked in fire oil, and once ignited, although the explosive power is not as explosive as a cannonball, it can cause a large fire or even a devastating fire.

A flying stone wrapped in scorching flames flew towards the top of Yinglong Tower, and he saw Mu Yuncheng swing the cloud in his hand and slash out a sword qi, and the flint exploded instantly, falling countless fragments of burning fire. Seeing this, Mo Yiyue took out the Phantom Ryo Leech, and a dragon roar was extremely harsh, and then a dragon-shaped true qi rushed straight into the sky and disappeared into the sky, and in a moment, he saw the dark clouds gathering in the sky above the imperial city, and then the thunder roared, and the heavy rain poured out the raging fire.

As soon as the flint was washed away by the heavy rain, the fire instantly lost its power, and the Xiliang army had to withdraw all the thunderbolts that had just been set up, waiting for the rain to stop.

Baili Divine Whale didn't know that the artifact in Mo Yiyue's hand had the ability to call the wind and rain, and thought that it was a heavy rain tonight, and it was cheap for Huaiyu, so he didn't take it to heart, and only ordered everyone to wait for the rain to stop before attacking with all their might.

......

The words were divided into two ends, and Zhao Guangfu, the general of the Dynasty's Shenji Battalion, was blocked by Ma Mojun from going to Donghuangling, and he was very anxious. He knew that the imperial city was not well garrisoned, and the Xiliang army raised more than 300,000 troops to surround the imperial city, and now the situation in the imperial city was precarious, and he might make a big mistake if he was late. However, Ma Mojun went down to the village at the intersection of Donghuangling Road, and he couldn't pass in a hurry to wait for his labor, and he attacked the 50,000 wind army facing Ma Mojun, and he didn't have the certainty of victory if he didn't surprise his troops......

At this moment, the voices of several people suddenly came from outside the tent: "Ren Tianhao, a disciple of the Lower Tianxiao Sect, heard that the general's westward advance was blocked here, so he and his junior brother Muzi Yuan and senior brother You Shifang came to help the general. ”
