Chapter 273: Fear

This cry seemed to be a magic sound, which made Li Bochen stunned. But at this moment, the thin clouds above the mountains in the northwest also dispersed, and the moonlight sprinkled down.

Then he saw the "people" in the mountains—thin, tall, and black—like the ink graffiti of children who had just learned to draw.

A great sense of fear gripped his heart, and cold sweat seeped out densely under the inner lining of his armor. Li Bochen blinked unconsciously a few times, slowly opened his mouth again, and only took two steps back, almost not standing firm.

Third-Order Demon Beast.

It wasn't the third-order demon beasts themselves that made him so frightened and out of shape—although there seemed to be more than a dozen of them.

The third-order demon beast, with his current cultivation, tried his best and used various means, maybe he could also kill one.

What is really terrifying is that the appearance of third-order demon beasts means that there is an organized and organized army of demon beasts, which means that somewhere farther north, the demon kingdom has finally found a way to break through that insurmountable moat!

He couldn't see how many were on the mountain, or if there were more in the valley. But as far as I can see...... If each one controls one to twenty thousand demon beasts according to the custom, it means that there are nearly 100,000 demon beasts in the mountains in the northwest at this time!

- Is it Sui Wujiao!?

He immediately looked in the direction of the camp, but saw that the fire on the wall was shaking, and it seemed that soldiers were running and shouting. The people at the entrance of the secret realm also seemed to have blown up the camp, and they were in a panic.

Shouldn't that be him...... Did the demon beast follow him all the way to this place!?

He wanted to bring in some stragglers, but he really attracted most of them!?

Li Bochen raised his hand and gave himself an ear hard, and his head buzzed. But because of this, I suddenly came to my senses.

Even if there are only 10,000 demon beasts, the camp will definitely not be able to hold it. It can't be defended there, Houcheng can't be defended, Linxi and even the entire Li Realm can't be defended!

This army of monsters will go all the way south, destroying every village and town it sees in its path.

The Southern Sui will soon fall, and the six states will lose two of them.

The Demon Beast Army will attack the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Jiang...... If there is a large army coming in after that......

Li Bochen didn't dare to think about it anymore.

He jumped down. At this time, the soldiers at the entrance of the secret realm also listened to the roar of the third-order demon beast, although they didn't know what was going on for a while, but when they saw the Sui army outside, they were in a panic, and they knew that it was not good. A thought flashed in Li Bochen's heart - he should immediately mobilize the earth's qi so that they couldn't see what it was like outside.

But immediately he said, what's the use of that? You can't hide here for the rest of your life!

Fang Yu and a few generals greeted him and said, "Junhou, what's the sound?"

Li Bochen took a deep breath: "Third-order demon beast." ”

A few people were stunned, not knowing what to say, or not understanding what it meant. He said, "In the mountains in the northwest, there are at least 100,000 demon beast armies. ”

Several people were stunned. Li Bochen said again: "What's even more troublesome is that there are third-order demon beasts, even if they die, they will become zombie puppets...... There is almost no question of attrition, and it will even get stronger and stronger. ”

In fact, there was one more sentence he didn't say - since there was not just a third-order, there should be a higher-level commander, and that might be a demon spirit. When the Infinite City was broken, it was a third-order demon beast that ruled the army. And at present, this lineup can wage war against the original Northern Sui border cities at the same time without falling behind.

Hearing him say this, the generals were speechless for a while, and even Fang Qi was a little depressed. Li Bochen wanted to hear their views and open his mind. But now, the only way to do it is to take it yourself.

He was silent for a moment, calmed his mind, and turned his face to look northwest.

The third-order demon beasts on the top of the mountain were gone, but their roars were getting louder and louder, they should have entered the valley and would soon advance to the flat ground.

The people of the Linxi Army are afraid that they will all die.

He turned his face and whispered, "Three military orders." ”

"One, you go and choose your own brave and stupid men, and form two teams. One team maintained military discipline, and the other team organized the villagers to move to the secret realm, so that they could not see the situation outside. Zhao Bo, you can do this. ”

"2. Men under the age of 50 and over the age of 14 are all conscripted into the army, and they will be incorporated into the army tonight. Remember, it's a forced levy. If there is a disturbance, it shall be dealt with in accordance with wartime military law. ”

"Third, collect food, medicine, and extra clothes from the villagers. Men under 60 and over 50 and women between 50 and 14 were organized overnight to go to the nearby forests to cut timber and collect food, and they were also to be handed in, and they were also to be handled according to wartime military orders. You can do this, Teng Zhong. ”

The three of them immediately responded, but their voices were not as confident as before.

Li Bochen looked at the people in front of him and said in a deep voice, "Are you all afraid?"

He added: "When I first saw the third-order demon beast, I was also a little scared. But after thinking about it again, I was not afraid of it all of a sudden. ”

"Fear stems from the unknown. I didn't know when or where the monsters would come, so I had to be worried every day. But now they're there—knowing where they are, how many they are, what they're trying to do. Although we can't win them for the time being, we can slowly think about what to do. ”

"No one can avoid such a calamity, but can only choose death or life. What are you practicing martial arts for? Few of you are thinking about a leisurely and immortal life, right? If it is for the sake of making meritorious deeds, now the outside is meritorious deeds, just to see if you can calm down. ”

Speaking of this, he paused: "It doesn't matter much to the demon beasts here, they will cross the border soon." After the crossing, there will only be a few skirmishers here - just think about the situation in the valley just now, are those stragglers scary?"

Fang Yan was stunned and said, "Junhou, you mean that we ...... Before the monster crossed, it hid here?"

Li Bochen said: "Yes." ”

These people were stunned, and Fang Yu couldn't help but glance outside.

Li Bochen said: "She is in Houcheng, safer than anywhere else." ”

Fang Yan said: "No...... Prince, those people outside...... Those thousands ......"

Li Bochen was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Do you remember that you once said to me the words "decisive killing"? Fang Yuan, this is the battlefield. ”

Fang Yan's eyes flashed, and after a while, he muttered, "Yes...... I know, I know ......"

Li Bochen said: "Okay, let's do things." ”

Several people saluted him and slowly dispersed.

Li Bochen turned to look at the Sui army in the dark night—Sun Feihu had only brought them here for a quarter of an hour, and then they began to form a team again, moving in the direction of the camp.

He wasn't surprised by what Fang Qi had just said. Many people, when fighting in the market, can show amazing courage, but when they see pieces of their kind dying on the battlefield, their courage is gone, and their hearts are soft. It's human nature.

But on the battlefield, many instincts have to be worn out. At this time, Fang Yan should know what killing is and what is soft-hearted. In normal times, Li Bochen hopes that he is a soft-hearted person than anyone else, but at this time, he hopes that he is more ruthless than anyone else.

If sacrificing one of himself can be exchanged for Li Jing's worry-free, maybe he will really sacrifice his life for righteousness. But at this time, if you want to let Sui Wujiao and them in, you will only lose your own life, and it will have no impact on the overall situation.

He gripped the hilt of the knife tightly before exhaling a shivering breath of hot air and whispering, "...... Don't blame me. ”
