Chapter 394: Fire Moon City
In the early morning, the sun shone like strands of golden silk belts in the jungle. The war horses walked slowly on the mottled shadows of the tree. Under the autumn wind, the snow-white cloak slowly flew. Lin Muyu held the reins with one hand and gently pressed the sword at the waist with the other hand. The armor of the imperial commander shone brightly in the morning light. The three hexagrams at the collar were even more dazzling. He squinted his eyes lazily, and as the group of people slowly advanced, he suddenly asked: "How far are we from Fire Moon City."
"If you run at full speed for one hundred miles, you can get there in one hour." Wei Qiu said solemnly.
"Don't hurry, just walk slowly and keep the soldiers physically."
Lin Muyu breathed slowly and relaxed, and a wisp of turbid Dou Qi was spit out with this breath. This was the cultivation effect of the calculating dragon bones. Practicing over and over again can make his Dou Qi more pure, far beyond the ability of ordinary practitioners. Looking at the jungle in the distance, Lin Muyu said lightly: "Wei Qiu, release scouts and reconnaissance letter birds, be sure to master our every move within a hundred miles. After all, this is the territory of the rebels of the Yihe Kingdom, not our own territory."
"Yes, don't worry, the commander, my subordinates have all arrangements."
"That's good."
Lin Muyu raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Don't rush to attack after arriving in Huoyue City. Assemble all the arrow boxes first, shoot them with them for a while before sending the cone shield and spear cavalry to fight, minimizing the losses of the armored demons."
"Yes, my subordinates go and pass the order immediately."
"Um."
On the side, Qin Yan licked his lips, his body was full of fighting spirit, and his fighting spirit was very high: "You can fight against those dirty cockworms again. Brother, this time I have to let me rush to the front line, and I can't let more than a dozen personal guards guard me. I am a general, and if I don't charge in the battle, what's the use of the Longtan Camp?"
"Can."
Lin Muyu glanced at him and smiled and said, "But Ayan, you have to be careful. After all, there is not much left in the Qin family's bloodline. You are the authentic family bloodline, so you can't make any mistakes."
"Don't worry, brother, I know everything."
Qin Yan held the spear flowing light and looked at the direction of Huoyue City in the distance, saying, "Brother died for his country, and his father died in Fairy Lake with His Majesty the late emperor. Although Qin Yan is a little prince, he will also make contributions to the empire and use his military achievements to exchange for the reward from His Highness Qin Yin to me. What do you think?"
"Um."
Lin Muyu nodded and didn't say more.
...
The army was moving slowly along the way, and they saw many civilians from Yihe Country. However, after seeing the Imperial Purple Flower Battle Flag, these civilians seemed to have seen ghosts and quickly escaped in the fields. It was not until more than an hour later that Qin Yan rode out and caught a thin man in the jungle on the side of the road. He looked like a hunter, about 30 years old, holding a short worker in his hand and wrapped in animal skins.
"Brother, you're here." Qin Yan grabbed the back of the man's head like a claw, and threw him off the horse. Suddenly, the generals of the Longtan Camp surrounded him one after another.
"Sir, please spare your life, sir, escape, little one did nothing, I have never surrendered to the country... Ah, I have never surrendered to the country established by Qin Yi, a dog thief. Please believe in the villain, I am just a hunter who is not worthy of justice..." He was so scared that his face was pale, and as soon as he landed on the ground, he knelt down and begged for mercy to Lin Muyu, a man in the commander's armor.
"It's okay, you stand up first."
Lin Muyu raised his hand, and the cyclone of the Holy Domain slowly rose, lifting the kneeling man on the ground, then smiled gently and said, "Brother Hunter, have you ever been to Huoyue City?"
"I...I have..." The Hunter's face was still very ugly, but it was much better than before.
Lin Muyu continued: "I am the commander of the Longtian Camp under the command of His Highness the Queen of the Great Qin Empire. My name is Lin Muyu. This time I led the army to defeat the demon defenders from Lingbei, so I plan to take advantage of the situation to Lingnan and recover those cities occupied by the demons. I want to ask you, what is the situation in Huoyue City now? Do you know?"
"I...I..."
The hunter trembled all over and said, "I'm just a hunter. I...had some badgers and hares, and they were sent to Huoyue City to sell them for copper coins, those demons..."
"The demons have purchased food from human hunters." Lin Muyu asked in surprise.
The hunter shook his head: "No, those demons called the 'Armor Demons' never buy them. They only know how to steal them. My prey is sold to the craftsmen who stayed in the city."
"Craftsman." Lin Muyu was stunned: "What's the situation?"
The hunter said: "The villain doesn't know either. I only know that it seems that the powerful people in the demon clan gave orders. After plundering a city of Yihe, they cannot kill each time. The stonemasons, blacksmiths, bowmakers, carpenters, doctors, etc. must be arrested, locked up, and then sent to the territory of the demon clan. However, most of the thousands of demon soldiers stationed in Huoyue City had left, and they did not have time to take these craftsmen away, so these craftsmen lived in the city, although they were locked up in the city and could not leave the city."
"How many craftsmen are there in total?" Lin Muyu asked.
"About 20,000 people, Huoyue City was originally a city with a population of 150,000. Alas... it was slaughtered by the demons to only 20,000 people. Those damn beasts were not even allowed to women or children."
"So that's it, I understand."
Lin Muyu reached into his arms and took out five golden coins, threw them directly to him, saying, "Brother Hunter, we are going to attack Huoyue City. The sword has no eyes. Don't go back to Huoyue City. Take this money and hide in the mountains for a while. When the war is over, then go back to Huoyue City."
"good……"
The hunter's palm trembled, he looked up at Lin Muyu, and said, "Sir, you... can you really kill the demons and avenge our killed relatives?"
"Yes." Lin Muyu raised her head and looked into the distance, and said lightly: "We are soldiers of the Qin Empire. Protecting the territory of the empire is our duty. You go quickly."
"yes……"
The hunter turned around and didn't even dare to turn his head, as if he was afraid that Qin Yan would catch him again.
"Brother, the situation has been confirmed, let's go." Qin Yan said.
"Yeah, go."
...
At noon, a small town with red walls appeared in the mountains. The villages and towns in the distance were already looted by the demons. It was difficult to see living people, and even corpses were not visible. The armored demon feeds on humans. Although it is cruel, it seems to be a natural advantage, at least in the war years.
From a distance, there were many armored demons walking on the city wall. They seemed to have found traces of the Longtan Camp, and they roared at the city bottom one by one. The city gate also opened wide. Many armored demon soldiers began to gather under the city, as if they were planning to fight. The number of these armored demons was less than 500, and no higher demons issued commanders here, which was equivalent to a group of idiots defending the city, which was a waste of trouble.
About three miles away from the city, the five thousand cavalry of the Longtan Camp stopped quickly and began to assemble the arrowbox under the command of Wei Qiu. Then a group of people pushed the arrowbox forward and brought a total of 50 arrowboxes. The heavy arrowbox crushed the grass under the city, and the black hole arrowbox exit was straight towards the armored demon in the distance.
"Stay approaching, waiting for them to charge." Lin Muyu pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand and smiled faintly.
Everyone slowly moved forward. When the distance was less than 500 meters, the group of armored demons could not hold back.
"roar."
The roar seemed to shake the air, deafening. The next moment, the armored demons raised their weapons and rushed over like crazy. There was no formation, but only instinctive killing and impulse, but this was also the foundation of their strong combat power.
"Prepare, launch." Wei Qiu shouted loudly when the armored demons were less than 100 meters apart.
The sound of the machine springs kept ringing, and black steel arrows passed through, piercing through the body of the armored demon with "puff puff puff puff", and blood splattered everywhere. In a blink of an eye, most of the armored demons in the front row were killed.
The charge was too fast, and Lin Muyu pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword without hesitation and shouted: "Curvey Shield and Spear Cavalry, go up."
A group of heavy cavalrymen of the Gentian Battalion holding cone shields attacked one after another, and their power was naturally extraordinary. The "bang bang bang" sounded endlessly. After the cone shield removed the assassination of the armor demon, the weapons that tempered the white diamond immediately pierced the heart of the armor demon. These cone shield and spear cavalry were all powerful people with high cultivation. At this time, they formed a battle formation, and their natural combat power was amazing.
Lin Muyu rushed to the front of the crowd, raised his palm gently, and the three stars sentient beings roared out, shattering more than a dozen armored demons in front of him. The sword was raised, and a "crack" flashed by, and the head of an armored demon soared into the sky. The armored demon died too quickly, and the mucus in his mouth was even splashing in the air, ferocious and funny.
The cone shield spear swept across, and Lin Muyu quickly used the third star's mysterious power four times, and a feeling of discomfort came from his body. After all, the backlash of the seven stars' mysterious power was very terrible, so he stopped using it. He replaced the pear blossom gun and rushed straight to kill the last few armored demons. When he turned around and looked back, there were only a few armored demons left, but this time the loss of the Dragon Battalion Camp was minimal, only a few were slightly injured.
...
"roar……"
On the city wall, an armored demon roared down, and the battle axe in his hand slashed straight towards Lin Muyu's neck.
"Be careful, sir."
Wei Qiu had quick eyes and quick hands. He raised his hand and shot through the neck of the armored demon with an arrow, killing him on the spot.
Lin Muyu raised his palm, and the true dragon's original fire surged, directly burning the armor demon to ashes. The golden gourd wall rose, shaking the ashes of the armor demon's corpse.
...
“Enter the city.”
Wei Qiu held the longbow and looked at everything around him, with a little more pride on his face.
Although there are only 500 armored demons, the only army that can kill 500 armored demons but has almost no losses is probably the only army that can kill 500 armored demons.
