Chapter 359 Mozu Plan
The Fourth Legion was stationed at Fenglin Ferry for nearly half a month, without any war. Although the demons' camps were vaguely visible on the other side, the demons were always dormant, which made people very anxious.
In the early morning, fog surrounded the entire city, and the new city had already taken shape. In order to build this new city, it almost leveled a mountain behind it. It was not easy for nearly 100,000 people to build this city day and night.
Feng Xi was walking back and forth on the city wall with his sword, and said impatiently: "What are these demons doing? Or not attacking? Sir... In my opinion, we have warships and heavy cavalry, so it is better to attack and kill them directly and kill them with the demons."
"No."
Lin Muyu waved her hand and smiled, "Fengxi, don't underestimate the demon clan. Their demon clan's combat power is far more terrifying than you think. If we underestimate the enemy, we will definitely suffer a crushing defeat. Do you know why Your Highness ordered the construction of this new city in a short time? It is because she also knows the power of the demon clan, so she has already made plans to rely on the city to defend. The demon clan is not good at water battles and is not good at siegeing the city, and will always remember this."
"Yes, my subordinates know."
On the side, Wei Qiu narrowed his eyes and said, "We can receive the feather books sent from the other six legions every day. The Daojiang River is silent. The demons have been dormant for so long. What is the hell are they doing? And what is hateful is that almost all the scouts we sent out have been killed. We know nothing about the situation on the other side."
Lin Muyu frowned and said, "Let's do this, I'll go to the east coast to check the situation tonight, and you can guard the city."
"no."
Qin Yan hurriedly said, "The East Coast is too dangerous. Brother, you will definitely not be able to go alone."
"Don't worry." Lin Muyu raised her eyebrows and said, "I went over secretly and came back secretly. I will not alarm the main force of the demon clan. You should also be careful to prevent the demon clan from attacking at night."
"yes."
...
That night, Lin Muyu put on a black night-walking suit, carried the Dragon Spirit Sword behind him, and then walked out of the city. Qin Yan, Wei Qiu and others sent him to the riverside and watched him swim past.
The river water is very cool on summer nights. Lin Muyu swam slowly while releasing the spiritual vein technique to observe every move around. There are only fish in the river water, without the terrifying creatures like Frost Armored Quiulong. It must be because the river water here is not deep or wide enough, which is not enough to meet the survival needs of Frost Armored Quiulong.
When he swam to the east coast, a series of auras appeared in the spiritual vein technique, powerful and violent. Yes, it was the aura of the armor demon. The armor demon is the main force of the demon clan's combat, and can be seen everywhere. Just in front of him, he sensed the aura of the armor demon every 50 meters away. However, Lin Muyu squinted his eyes but did not find the figure of the armor demon. That was only one possibility. These armor demons had already started to disguise.
"Smack it..."
The river water slowly dripped on the ground from his clothes. Lin Muyu quietly entered the reeds by the river, and then stepped into the jungle. Not far ahead was a smell of armored demons.
Lin Muyu was lying in the grass for a long time and finally found that the grass opposite suddenly shook for a moment. It was an armored demon tickling it. He immediately laughed. It turned out that the armored demon was really lying here, waiting for the scouts of the human army. No wonder so many scouts sent by the Imperial Army were all not alive.
Slowly drew the sword, the Dragon Spirit Sword made a slight friction sound when it left the sheath. Lin Muyu rushed over with a single step. Without waiting for the armor demon hidden in the grass to react, a sword fell in the air. The cold sword light flashed in the jungle. The armor demon was split in half by the head and shoulders, and a stream of turbid red blood splashed out.
Lin Muyu carried a bloody sword and relied on the cover of the jungle to wander in the jungle like a phantom. The sword light passed by and another armored demon was solved.
Relying on the detection of spiritual vein techniques, the armored demons here have nowhere to hide, which also makes Lin Muyu's movements under the cover of night more convenient.
After stroking through the three consecutive lines of defense of the demon clan, from afar, the demon clan camp was hundreds of meters away, and piles of bonfires were lit in the camp. Their way of survival was very simple, and they didn't even need a barracks. The body of the armored demon was very strong, and he would probably not get sick even if he lie in the open world.
Going further, the fire swayed. The sound of axe cutting down trees and sawing rubbing the wood from a distance came from the jungle. Lin Muyu was hiding carefully in the bushes. Looking far away, he found that a group of humans were working under the fire. As they cut down, big trees fell down quickly, and there were pieces of sawed into pieces, which were being nailed up continuously with horizontal boards, looking like a huge wooden board.
Further apart, the same huge wooden boards have been stacked in a high pile, with at least hundreds of pieces. Each of these wooden boards can carry about 10 armored demons, which can transport more than 1,000 armored demons across the river.
When Lin Muyu saw this, she couldn't help but take a breath of air. The demons' attack method was so simple. They didn't need to build a battlefield at all. They just used this primitive wooden board to cross the river, which was terrible.
It can be imagined that there are many such timber construction sites here, and the forest on the east bank of Daojiang River will almost be cut down by them. At that time, tens of thousands of wooden boards will be thrown on the tributaries of Daojiang River. Who can stop the 100,000 Arc Demon Crossing the River?
The heart was jumping "bang bang". Lin Muyu narrowed his eyes and looked at each group of human craftsmen. There were several armor demons standing behind each group of human craftsmen. These armor demons were supervising the worker. In order to survive, these humans could only continue to work. No wonder the high-level demon clan said that as long as the Yangwei Legion was willing to be a slave, the Yangwei Legion would not die. Now, if Min Yulin surrendered at the same time, he might have become one of these craftsmen.
The demons are enslaving humans and using their wisdom to deal with humans.
...
Leaving quietly, Lin Muyu did not take action. Killing a few more armored demons would be useless, and it would be easy to be discovered. For safety reasons, he threw all the bodies of the several armored demons he killed into the Daojiang River, and then crossed the river and torches on the other side swayed. Two hours passed, Qin Yan and Wei Qiu were still guarding the shore.
"Brother is there."
Qin Yan hurriedly rode his horse over.
Lin Muyu slowly climbed ashore, suddenly exerted his strength, and whistled by the fighting spirit, shaking the moisture from his clothes away from most of the time. He wiped the river water on his face and said, "They are building ships."
"It's impossible to build a ship..." Wei Qiu said in surprise: "We haven't seen any demon ships. Do they need to go into the water?"
"Yes, their ships do not need to be tested. They are all nailed together by huge wooden boards, and there are a lot of them. The demons enslaved the humans on the east bank of Daojiang to cut down trees to build such wooden boards for them. It won't take too long to launch a fierce attack."
Lin Muyu took a deep breath and said, "Immediately send a Yushu to the other six legions to explain the situation."
"Um."
Wei Qiu said coldly: "Sir, how should we prepare?"
Lin Muyu said: "The demons are afraid of water. I don't know if they are afraid of fire. I think they should be afraid of it too. The armored demon has transparent wings behind it, so it should be effective to burn it with fire."
"Sir, I want..."
"What's the easiest thing to cause fire."
"The oil of beech wood, and beech oil, is the most easily used for fire attack."
"Then prepare more. By the way, can be burned on the water?"
"able."
"That's good."
Lin Muyu narrowed her eyes and said, "Prepare more beech oil, move it all to our 20 ships, and nail iron to the side panels of all our warships."
Wei Qiu smiled: "Sir, a master."
...
Lin Muyu almost didn't sleep much that night. He was worried that the plan would not be as smooth as expected. He was even more worried that the demons would have other ideas.
At this moment, Wei Qiu's voice suddenly came from outside: "Region, they have come before dawn."
"Who has come?"
"Winged Man."
Wei Qiu said lightly: "As expected, the demons used their old tricks again and wanted to rely on the flying advantages of the Winged Man to burn our grain warehouse. Fortunately, our granaries were shipped in the cellar without any loss. However, dozens of soldiers were shot to death by the Winged Man. The archery skills of these Winged Man are really not simple."
Lin Muyu lifted the curtain and walked out, asking, "Wei Qiu, your archery technique is the best in the entire army. Can you shoot these winged people?"
"cannot."
Wei Qiu shook his head and said awkwardly: "With the arm strength of his subordinates, the bottom-up arrows are gone if they exceed 150 meters. Most of the winged people fly more than 200 meters, so the subordinates can do nothing."
"By the way, although I can't do it, there seems to be someone."
"who."
"Qin Ziling."
"Oh, Ziling."
"I will take the adults over here and take a look."
"Um."
...
In the camp, Qin Ziling was holding a bronze machine and fiddling with it. He could tell at first that it was a crossbow arrow, but it was just a ten-shot type.
"Zi Ling." Lin Muyu greeted with a smile.
Qin Ziling hurriedly turned around and smiled respectfully, with a little embarrassed face, and said, "I used to fiddle with some equipment, but my father always said I was unpromising. Now... I transformed a hunting car that hunters used to hunt giant eagles into a crossbow rattle. It has a strong force. If the calibration is better, it may be able to shoot the demon-winged people."
Lin Muyu nodded: "Then study it carefully. Tell Wei Qiu directly if you have any needs, and he will try his best to satisfy you."
"yes."
Qin Ziling nodded happily and said, "Master, before I used to fiddle with these things, others looked down on me and thought I was not doing my job properly, but you are the only one who encouraged me."
Lin Muyu couldn't help laughing: "If the crossbow arrows you have developed can shoot more demons, you are the hero of the empire, and heroes may not necessarily charge in battle."
"Um."
Lin Muyu felt ashamed. Although she came from another world and understood many methods of weapons, she really had no research on cold weapons. Otherwise, she could also cast some magical weapons such as Zhuge Crossbow. When the demons dared to come, they would kill him and explode. As they thought about it, they would laugh.
"Commander, why are you laughing at?" Wei Qiu asked.
"No, nothing." Lin Muyu wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth: "What should I eat for lunch today? Is there any meat?"
