Chapter 33: The Demon Race Strikes
"Weichen will definitely live up to His Highness's love!" Zhuge Ye bowed slightly, looking full of confidence, as if Qi Yue's reward was already in his pocket. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
waved his hand to signal the other party to go down to carry out the matter, and then yawned, his eyelids couldn't stop closing slightly, and all the ministers were very interested in retreating, and only he and the arrow were left in the room.
"I'm not very relieved over there, you secretly follow and watch the point, if there is a situation, come and report it as soon as possible" After the order, Qi Yue got up and walked towards the city lord's mansion in the backyard, and Jian Yi followed his instructions and secretly followed Zhuge Ye.
In the next few days, the army was repaired, and the wounded soldiers were all sent back to Guicheng to recuperate, and the remaining 30,000 soldiers plus 28,000 veterans who were persuaded by Zhuge Ye to surrender were organized into a mixed army by Nangongli and marched towards the remaining counties in the east.
Before leaving, Qi Yue was a little uneasy, and deliberately asked Nangong Li to bring Qingluan and Xiaofeng, once he encountered a city that was difficult to conquer, he could directly break through the city gate with brute force without consuming extra troops.
The war was brutal but also very slow, the army advanced city by city, and almost every time after taking a new city, it had to be repaired for about ten days before continuing to march, which directly led to the fact that when the front line army reached the vicinity of the second county, it was already a cold winter.
In this world, because everyone practices martial arts, ordinary people are much stronger in physique. But even if he was strong and healthy, he could not endure the harshness of the cold winter, and there was a large area of frostbite on both sides before the war, and there was a large area of typhoid fever in the army.
When Qi Yue received the report from the front, more than 10,000 soldiers had lost their combat capability, and Nangong had no choice but to return the army to the city, and then wrote to him to state his interests, hoping to fight again after the beginning of spring.
Although Qi Yue wanted to seize the time to unify Lizhou, but the power of heaven and earth could not be stopped by manpower, and ordinary soldiers were at most cultivators of the Hundred Veins Realm, and they could not resist at all in the face of the cold winter, so he could only reply to order Nangong Li to take care of the wounded soldiers, and at the same time ordered to mobilize the doctors to quickly rush to the east front.
In the cold and freezing days, the territory of the four countries was covered with frost and snow, and the snow was flying, Qi Yue stayed in Liancheng all day and had nothing to do, and finally couldn't bear the torment and left all the things to Zhuge Ye, and he set off to return to Canglong City.
......
As the saying goes, gentle township is a hero's mound, this is not wrong at all, there is nothing to do in the long winter, the only thing he can do is to stay in the room with Bian Yuzhu all day long, the relationship between the two is heating up day by day, and gradually he doesn't bother to pay attention to the government affairs of the outside world, all of which are handled by the "big housekeeper" Nangong Ze, and he starts to be the shopkeeper.
It stands to reason that such days will last for two months, but suddenly one day Nangong Ze hurriedly broke into his courtyard, and when he saw Qi Yue, who was drinking with the beauty, he hurriedly stepped forward and said a few words in his ear.
Qi Yue's mood was originally very good, but after hearing the words, his face changed greatly, the wine glass in his hand was naturally put back on the table, and the slightly drunk wine instantly sobered up: "This matter is serious!"
Nangong Ze's face was full of anxiety, but he was afraid of Bian Yuzhu beside him and subconsciously glanced at her.
The girl is also familiar with life here these days, and when she saw the other party looking at her, she immediately understood, so she turned around and walked towards the room after a slight bow.
After the door was closed, Nangong Ze couldn't wait to say: "All the forces in the world already know about this matter, but my Canglang is located in the southern border, which is relatively remote, and during this time, I went to Linxian to discuss the alliance, so I only learned when I came back, and I didn't dare to stop for a moment to come to His Highness to discuss how to deal with it."
"How did things come to this?" Qi Yue's face was different, as if he knew something inside, but he didn't dare to confirm it: "Originally, I just found a scapegoat, but I didn't expect that the lord was really a person from the Demon Realm."
Nangong heard something from Qi Yue's words, but now is not the time to hold him accountable, as soon as this incident comes out, it completely disrupts his previous plan, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have new countermeasures for a while.
"Eh~ I was a little wary of this person at the beginning, but at that time I just thought that he dared to be interested in secular rights, but I never thought that he would be a person from the demon world, and now that the Netherworld corpse soldiers have been released, once the people contaminated with demon qi will become corpse soldiers, with my current strength of Canglang I can't resist at all, I'm afraid that it won't be long before they cross the Li River and reach the territory, so now I have to find a way to deal with it!" The more Nangong Ze thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, thousands of corpse soldiers crossed the Li River, and no army would be able to resist at that time, and the end of the human race would also come.
The incident happened suddenly, not only Nangong Ze's plan was broken, but even Qi Yue's grand plan for hegemony was probably going to come to naught.
Although he was anxious in his heart, Qi Yue's mind was still clear, and he remembered that there was a key force, and hurriedly asked: "The affairs of the demon world have always been in charge of the ancient famous sects, but now that the demon clan has emerged, can they stand idly by?"
Nangong shook his head: "It was too sudden, according to the news from the Sea God Guard, the center of the demon outbreak was in the Youzhou Blood Demon Mountain in the north, where someone had seen the master of Xuanxiao Palace appear, but then disappeared again for some reason, I am afraid that it is more than lucky."
"Blood Demon Mountain, the master of Xuanxiao Palace, is it really that old man?" Thinking of this, Qi Yue had already guessed the matter, it must have been the old man who went directly to the Venerable, but the other party started the incident in advance because the matter was exposed.
After thinking about things clearly, Qi Yue suddenly got up and ordered: "I remember that there are many islands in the sea area south of Canglong City, you hurry up and transfer the people under your rule there, as long as they are kept away from the land, no matter how powerful the corpse soldiers are, they can't cross the sea, I will go to the north to investigate the situation first, and I will send someone back as soon as there is any news!"
"Also, I must not fight with the corpse soldiers before I come back, you can arrange the specific matters yourself, in short, you must try to protect the safety of the people, the territory can be taken back if it is gone, if the people are gone, I will really destroy the country"
A series of orders made Nangong Ze suddenly look at the person in front of him, if ordinary people get this kind of news, they are afraid that they will choose to run away as soon as possible, and he not only has a clear mind and thinks of a countermeasure at the first time, but also knows that there are tigers in the mountains who are biased towards the tigers, and his courage and resourcefulness are far from being comparable to others.
For such an order, Nangong Ze naturally had nothing to say, and happily got up to receive the order and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, Weichen will do his best to protect the safety of the people!"
The matter was urgent, after Qi Yue sent Nangong Ze away, he turned back and told Bian Yuzhu about the matter, and at the same time ordered the Divine Arrow Guards to protect her, and then drove Xiaofeng towards the north where she had not returned for a long time.
......
In the main hall of Ziyang Peak, the news of the appearance of the demon world forces has already spread all over the world, and Ziyang, as the first sect of the righteous path, naturally can't sit idly by, after Dusk Yunheng learned the news, he immediately summoned the elders of all peaks to gather together, plus the Liuyun real people who were guests here, it can almost be regarded as a gathering of masters.
Most of the positions of the first seat of the six peaks have been replaced, Mo Yang was replaced by the eldest disciple Song Yufeng, Chiyang Peak should have been held by Yokono, but his personality was too extreme, and he found the opposition of the major elders, so after several discussions, he was replaced by a burly man named Mu Yan, as for the most surprising of the six peaks, Mu Hanshuang, who showed the five-layer cultivation of Chongxiao's secret record at the martial arts competition, defeated most of the disciples and won the top three with his extremely fast Jinyang Peak swordsmanship, and was appointed as the first seat of Jinyang Peak by the head of the house.
In addition, the rest of the peaks have not changed much, and the snow year has always adhered to his body, and the twilight cloud is in charge of the sect, and many people have almost forgotten the catastrophe half a year ago.
At this moment, the hall was silent, and the newly promoted first seat was still light and did not dare to speak, and Nian Heng Shuxue and the two had always remained silent, and no one proposed a countermeasure.
Seeing this, Twilight Yunheng's old face was a little unbearable, but now that there were outsiders present, it was not good to have a seizure, so he could only cough twice to break the embarrassment:" Hehe, I think all the elders are as surprised by this as I am, but now is not the time to be stunned, Youzhou is only a line away from my Hengzhou, these corpse forces are infinite and very infectious, although they can't do evil during the day, but at night they are like a group of ghosts dancing around and invincible, and if you don't come up with a countermeasure, once you are killed by corpse soldiers enough to open the door of the demon world, it will be really too late at that time!"
For Dusk Yunheng's words, the elders naturally knew that what he said was true, and the Purple Sun Sword Sect, as a thousand-year-old sect, had also passed down some classics, which clearly recorded the terrifying nature of the demon race, which was definitely beyond the reach of human beings.
Needless to say, the matter is urgent, but now that the incident suddenly happens, no one has a very good way, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, only Su Xue saw that the twilight clouds were not coming to the stage, so he spoke out to ease the atmosphere: "I don't know the means of the demon world, if you want to deal with them, you have to ask for help from the ancient famous family, and now this is our only way."
The people present agreed with what Su Xue said, and Liuyun, who was a guest, also praised it: "Elder Shu Xue is not afraid of danger and really has an extraordinary demeanor, and Poor Dao also thinks that he should send someone to ask for help from the ancient famous family, after all, this matter is no longer an ordinary battle between the rivers and lakes, but involves the safety of my human world as a whole!"
"Yes, the closest one is Xuanxiao Palace right now, I wonder which elder is willing to take a trip and bring this news over?" said Twilight Yunheng looking down expectantly, but he didn't expect everyone to avoid their eyes and pretend not to hear anything.
Seeing this, although he was lost in his heart, there was no way, although the ancient famous family was called well, but the people there were extremely high in cultivation and no one in their eyes, here everyone was an elder and respected, but when he got there, he was coldly looked down upon, and even expelled from it, and the past experience made many people really unhappy, and they were even more reluctant to go.
Just when Twilight Yunheng saw that everyone ignored the refusal and felt embarrassed, a hearty voice came from outside the hall: "Since everyone is unwilling to go, how about doing it for you?"
