Chapter 77: The Demon Clan Arrives
Li Zhaosheng was very pessimistic, not because he was not confident, but because he had seen through the layout of the demon clan, with their ability, they would never dare to start such a large-scale conflict again after a hundred years of cultivators.
The demon clan is already very difficult to entangle, and if there is someone behind it, the outcome can be imagined.
Even the empire's god of war was so pessimistic, and Zhao Liang, the emperor, felt that the matter was a bit big, and there was no point in shirking the responsibility again.
The other civil and military officials all kept their mouths shut, and no one dared to say that they would lead the troops into battle.
Wow......
Li Pilgrimage spread out the map, which was a map of the north and west and the northeast, and even included some monastic sects and the sphere of influence of the Great Demon.
"Based on the old man's preliminary observation, the first wave of attacks is the nomadic army in the north, and the second wave of attacks is the demon clan, but I'm not sure if the demon clan's attack target is the cultivation forces like Wangxianmen and Ziyun Valley or our empire, let's assume first, if it is Ziyun Valley and Wangxianmen, it is a battle between cultivators, and it should not affect mortal beings, but once the other party's target is our empire, it can only mean one situation, there are demon clans in the empire or the things that the people behind the demon clan need. ”
Li Pilgrim looked at the overall situation and pointed to three important passes, which were definitely the most vulnerable places, and no matter how many people piled up there, they might not be enough to kill.
"Most of the Lingshan treasures in our empire are occupied by cultivators, and the only thing left is Yandu, and it is in the center surrounded by cultivators, it stands to reason that their purpose should not be our Yandu, so everyone should relax, at least don't show it too obviously, so as not to panic and defeat yourself without a fight. ”
When everyone heard this, they felt that it made sense, Yandu really didn't have anything worthy of such fanfare from the demon clan, even if it really attacked, there were cultivators' forces in all directions, and the demon clan would not be able to stand.
Call......
Zhao Liang exhaled a breath of turbidity, pretended to be calm, and said in a condensed voice, "With the God of War by my side, I can rest easy!"
Li Pilgrim stared at Zhao Liang and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the old man owes your grandfather a favor back then, so he promised to protect the empire for thousands of years, and did not hesitate to betray Wangxianmen, I hope that Your Majesty can also think about the common people, stop thinking about some meaningless things, seek more benefits for all sentient beings, hide wealth from the people, hide soldiers from the country, gather the mental power of all spirits, and collect the luck of heaven and earth, so as to protect the empire for thousands of generations, and the old man will have the face to see your grandfather when he dies in the future." ”
Zhao Liang hurriedly got up and replied, "Don't worry, the god of war, from today onwards, you will definitely handle government affairs well, and you will never be lazy." ”
Li Pilgrim nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you need to order a few generals to defend the three major passes, these are all important locations, as long as these three places are not lost, the empire will not have to worry about it." ”
"Is there a candidate for the God of War?" Zhao Liang asked respectfully.
Li Zhaosheng looked around, even the military attache bowed his head to avoid it, how dare he take this hot job, basically there is no life or death, and after the loss, his family will be implicated.
No one in the Empire!
Li Zhaosheng is also very helpless, he lacks skills, and the person guarding the pass must be a cultivator, and he must be very good at military affairs, if he is not a cultivator, the first wave will be assassinated by the demon clan.
The hall fell silent.
No one spoke for a long time, but at this moment, a eunuch rushed into the main hall.
"Report ...... Your Majesty, there is a strange army of nearly 100,000 that is extremely fast, and all the war horses, not like the army of my empire, are rushing in the direction of Yandu, and they can arrive by tomorrow night at the latest. ”
The eunuch said hurriedly.
Wow......
Zhao Liang stood up suddenly, his face gloomy and angry.
There is such an army in the empire, and it is coming to Yandu, if it is not too strong, it must not look at the entire empire.
"What flag?" asked Li Pilgrim in a deep voice.
The eunuch hurriedly replied, "Back to the God of War, it's the banner of Baiyue City......"
Wow......
Li Pilgrim stared at the torture calamity and asked in a deep voice, "Has Qianqiu succeeded in suppressing the army?"
Torture shook his head and replied, "Back to God, when I came, I heard that I controlled an army of dead soldiers, called the Hundred Refining Battalion, there are only 20,000 people. ”
"Will something happen to Qianqiu?" Zhao Liang asked nervously.
Li Pilgrim stared at the torture, he injected too many expectations into Li Qianqiu, and now if he wants to know more, he can only know from the torture.
The hair that was stared at by Li Chaosheng hurriedly replied, "Back to God, there are thunder rats and more than twenty demon kings of the Lingqi realm by the side of Gongzi, and several of his senior sisters are also not far away, so it stands to reason that there should be no problems." ”
Call......
Li Chaosheng suddenly exhaled a turbid breath, there are so many great demons in the Lingqi realm, there will definitely be no problems.
"What kind of cultivation is Qianqiu now?" asked Li Pilgrim hoarsely.
Torture replied respectfully, "Jiedan, but he has killed the demon king of Lingqi Realm, and his strength is very strong, and his senior sisters are all perverts, although they are only in the Jiedanjing." ”
Li Chaosheng was officially relieved that with such strength, there was really no need to worry, but he was still quite shocked that Li Qianqiu's strength had improved so quickly.
In less than a year, he actually ran from the Returning to the Void Realm to the Jiedan Realm, spanning three realms!
"Maybe it was Qianqiu who suppressed Meng Yue's army and brought Yandu, this kid ...... It's really beyond my imagination!" Zhao Liang said excitedly, "God of War, how about letting him be the commander of a pass?"
Li Pilgrim refused without hesitation, "No, the old man repays the favor, a few children in my family are enough, and he must fulfill my dream." ”
Zhao Liang's face changed suddenly, but he quickly reacted, he really didn't dare to make a pilgrimage with Li.
"Yes...... Yes......" Zhao Liang replied with a sneer.
......
In the northwest, the army was marched out, the banner of Baiyue was waving in the wind, and the army of 80,000 was rushing to the galaxy.
And due north, a special team is faster than them, and the ones they control are all demon beasts, very strong, stronger than tigers, murderous, ordinary war horses can't withstand such momentum at all.
The elite army of the demon clan has more than 10,000 people, and their cultivation is actually above the sixth order of the Returning Void Realm, below the ninth order of the Jiedan Realm, and the people with military ranks are all Lingqi Realm demons, and there is also a Guiyuan Realm boss!
The 20,000 troops led by the demon king at the lord level went straight to the hinterland of the empire, but there was no army to stop them, they killed people when they saw them, and the demon beasts devoured the bones without even spitting out the bones.
The place where they passed was a mess, the blood flowed like a river, and the big city could not withstand a wave of shock!
At their speed, they will converge outside the main city of Tianlan.
Li Qianqiu didn't know anything about this, and he hurried day and night, most of this army was in the Qi training realm, there was plenty of food and grass, and there was no problem with the basic march.
The war horse could not bear it, so it was changed, so fast the horse whipped and crisscrossed the official road.
But there were a large number of refugees ahead, and they rushed south like crazy.
Li Qianqiu frowned and watched the refugees on the official road ignore the army, and couldn't help but be a little curious, so he signaled, "Come on, go stop a few and ask what's going on?"
