Chapter 294 Rotating the Universe
"Your Highness announces that all the people will enter the city immediately, and the gate will be closed after sunset. Without His Highness's order, the gate will never be opened until the crisis is lifted."
Zhang Wei stood on the city wall holding a long knife, shouting loudly at the people under the city.
Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Huaiyan stood aside, with endless helplessness on his face.
"As an imperial general, it is really a shame to not be able to stand on his feet." Feng Jixing clenched his fists, his face full of anger.
Chu Huaiwen said: "The enemy is strong and I am weak. There is no way to do this. I just don't know when the Qihai City and Muyu City will be willing to send troops. As long as they send troops, we will cooperate inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to defeat the so-called volunteer soldiers."
Feng Jixing looked at Lin Muyu and asked, "Ayu, do you want to summon your gentian camp to Lanyan City as well."
“No need.”
Lin Muyu shook his head and said, "I have sent someone to the Longtan Camp to report the news, so that they can't stand like us. Longyan Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and a million troops cannot conquer it in a short period of time. Leaving the Longtan Camp on Longyan Mountain can be used as a surprise weapon. Once needed, the Longtan Camp can also cooperate with us inside and outside."
Feng Jixing clapped his hands and chuckled, "That's good. I've seen Ayu's Gentian Camp. Its combat power is very terrible and its equipment is the leader in the imperial army. To be honest, if the volunteer soldiers come to the siege of the city less than 150,000, we can open the city gate and go out to fight, with a chance of winning of more than 70%.
"What if it exceeds 200,000?" Chu Huaiyan asked with a smile.
Feng Jixing's expression was gloomy: "Then I can only hold on, the difference in military strength is too great, and leaving the city is just a death. Moreover, there is a powerful man in the divine realm and nearly ten powerful men in the holy realm."
Lin Muyu reached out to sweep away the dust on the stool. The palms were cold. She couldn't help but feel cold in her heart, saying, "I don't know how your Majesty is in Fairy Lake. She doesn't even have any news. She has brought so many feather books with her. Can't even send a single letter back?"
Feng Jixing frowned: "I hope Your Majesty can turn bad luck into good luck."
But if it is a bad situation, how can we resolve it if it is a big disaster?
...
Late at night, Chu Huaiyan sank into the darkness of Tongtian Street. Soon after, he stopped in front of the Shenhou Mansion. After turning over and dismounting, he looked at the lonely iron door, hesitated for a moment, and walked up to him and slammed it lightly.
"Who?" The voice of the guard came from inside.
"Chi Huai-mi, the commander of the Flying Cavalry Camp, pay homage to Miss Zengxiang."
The guard immediately sneered: "It turns out to be the famous General Chu Huaijian. Didn't you say you won't see my lady again?"
"I'm not here, I just want the lady to talk to someone Chu across the door."
"Hmph, wait."
"Thank you."
Not long after, Zeng Xiang's gentle voice came from the other side of the iron gate: "Master Chu, I don't know what's going on in the late night."
Chu Huaiyan clasped his fists and said, "Miss, Cangnan Province and Earth Star Province have fallen one after another. Lan Yancheng is isolated and helpless, Miss Zengxiang is the daughter of the Shenhou, and Ji Yao and Lin Yu are both the former generals of the Shenhou Zeng Yifan. I believe they will not make things difficult for the young lady. I also asked the young lady to leave the city immediately and go to Tianshu Province to find the Shenhou to seek peace."
Zeng Xiang smiled: "Mr. Chu, Zeng Xiang has his own sense of responsibility. Thank you for your concern. I will make a decision whether to go or stay."
Chu Huaiyan was anxious and gritted his teeth and said, "Xiangxiang, you must leave now. The Lingnan army will be at the city at any time. If you don't leave now, there will be no chance."
"Huai Yan..." Zeng Xiang called softly and said, "Didn't you say you want to see Xiang Xiang in the world? If Xiang Xiang goes here, you will not be able to see each other. You go, I won't leave. If you die in the battlefield, I will go with you."
Chu Huaiyan's body trembled and his eyes were bloody: "Xiangxiang, you're crazy."
There was no more sound in the door.
Chu Huaijian stood outside the door for more than an hour and led the horse away dejectedly.
...
The next morning, the 30,000 imperial guards and the 17,000 flying cavalry camps had all entered Lanyan City and entered the barracks around the gates, which made Lanyan City suddenly become lively, but the people all closed their doors and everyone lived their lives tremblingly. They didn't know what was going to greet them next moment, death or rebirth.
In the early morning, another heavy fog enveloped Lanyan City in the mist.
Straws of dew flowed slowly from Lin Muyu's armor. He was guarding the north gate wall of Lanyan City, without closing his eyes all night, and his expression looked quite tired.
"Ayu, go and sleep for a while." Feng Jixing frowned and said, "Look at how haggard you are. If your highness sees you, I don't know what kind of heartache."
Lin Muyu smiled and shook her head: "I can't sleep... Brother Feng, can you fall asleep?"
"No..." Feng Jixing smiled dismally and said, "This may be our last battle."
"Didn't you still receive the feather book from Her Majesty Fairy Lake?"
"No, not one."
"Oh..." Lin Muyu sighed, pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword, gently wiped the dew on the blade with white cloth, and said, "Brother Feng, are you afraid?"
"Afraid."
Feng Jixing smiled: "What's there to be afraid of? I am an imperial soldier. It's my glory to die for the empire, and... heroes come from troubled times. Don't you think this is also our chance?"
"I don't think so." Lin Muyu shook her head and said, "I'm afraid. I'm afraid of losing everything I care about and what I care about. I'm afraid of losing Xiaoyin, Xiaoxi, and you all. If I can choose, I would rather choose obscurity than choose the glory made with blood."
"Maybe you're right."
Feng continued to sit beside Lin Muyu, took out a wine gourd from beside him, and gulped a big mouthful of strong wine, and smiled and said, "But this is fate. The more you want to escape all this war, the more you can escape. Ayu, you hate killing, but you must face everything in front of you. In this battle, your hands will inevitably be covered with blood, wait and see."
At this moment, a "slap" sound suddenly came from the air, and a letter bird quickly landed on Feng Jixing's shoulder. He hurriedly took out the message tube, glanced at him, his face full of astonishment, and said, "So quickly... the volunteer soldiers' pioneer heavy cavalry are less than 300 miles away from Lanyan City. Today, the troops will be at the city before sunset."
"Oh shit……"
Lin Muyu put the long sword back into the sheath and said lightly: "Are they so eager to destroy Lan Yancheng?"
Feng Jixing looked calm and said, "Zhang Wei, send the order to keep the whole city on guard and start preparing for war in the afternoon. In addition, has the Tianchong Legion from Qihai City returned?"
Zhang Wei nodded: "It will arrive in one hour."
"Well, that's good."
...
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves came from the fog. A commander-level general came to the city with a long sword. It was the first warrior of the empire, Du Hai. Behind him were densely packed with shield-holding soldiers, all of whom were infantry of the Tianchong Legion, and there were endless food and supplies.
"Open the city gate." Du Hai said loudly.
Feng Jixing stood on the city wall and shouted: "General Du Hai, how many people have you brought back?"
Du Hai looked up and smiled and said, "It turns out that it is Commander Feng. The Tianchong Army is no longer as bad as before. Nearly 10,000 people were damaged by the Demon-Suppressing Pass, and 50,000 people were taken away by His Majesty. Now there are only less than 30,000 infantry and archers."
Feng Jixing nodded: "Well, it's good to have 30,000. Come into the city. Feiqi camp guards the south gate, the imperial guards guard the north gate, the east gate, and the Tianchong army guards the west gate, what does the general think."
"Thank you, I'll take my brothers to Ximen now."
"Um."
Du Hai is cheerful. Although his military vocation is higher than Feng Jixing, he can defend according to Feng Jixing's orders. He is still a good general. Moreover, the volunteers are coming in full force, and there are generals who surrender everywhere in the empire. Du Hai's ability to return to Lanyan City to assist in defense at this time is enough to prove his loyalty.
Watching Tian Chongjun enter the city one after another, Lin Muyu slowly stood up and said with a sword blade: "Wei Qiu, how is the situation in the Eagle Nest Camp?"
Wei Qiu clasped his fists and said, "All 724 brothers are on the northern city wall, waiting for the command and dispatch at any time."
"That's good. All the staff are equipped with war bows. Once the volunteers enter the range, they can shoot and kill them."
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
...
As noon approached, the sunlight pierced the clouds and dispelled the fog, and the footsteps of the Lingnan army were getting closer and closer.
More and more birds of letters flew around in the air, and the news made my heart even colder.
Lin Yu led an army of 100,000 leaving the Earth Star Province and has entered the Lingbei Province and is about to arrive soon.
In the direction of Cangnan Province, Ji Yao, the marshal of the Volunteer Army, personally led an army of 250,000 to flock to the city, and with Long Qianlin as the vanguard, he conquered Lanyan City in succession and 17 cities between Wugu City, and was about to arrive at the city within three hours.
Near the Qinling Mountains, soldiers from Lingnan entered Lingbei were found again.
There is no news in the direction of Fairy Lake.
Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Huaijian and Du Hai were responsible for defending the city. Qin Lei led the Imperial Army to defend the Zetian Palace. The general of the state ruled the formation. The war in the entire Lanyan City was about to break out.
...
At this moment, Tianshu Province is traveling to Xianniao Lake.
The lake water has been stained with blood, and countless floating corpses on the lake surface, most of which have begun to rot and be bloated, and are being eaten by fish. On the other hand, the Tianchong Legion and the Longquan Army's battle flag floated on the water surface, blood flowing for a hundred miles, and the entire Fairy Lake is silent.
There were messy footprints in the mud by the lake. One person was deeply trapped in the mud of shallow water. The aquatic plants wrapped around his swollen neck. Through the water surface, he could still see his eyes full of reluctance and anger. His palms were claw-shaped and his nails cracked. After fighting during his lifetime, he was unable to do so, so he was drowned.
No matter how he was the only one in his lifetime, he was the only one in the world, and he was in a prosperous and unrest, he was ranked among the nine masters and rotated the universe.
