"Don't be afraid, little junior brother, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. Even if that door of darkness is finally opened, it's not a big deal. Isn't there still Shanchang here? Shanchang will definitely not sit idly by.
Ignore it.”
Long Qingquan is a complete optimist.
He spread his hands and said: "To be honest, I want to meet the practitioners of that world for a while, and want to see something that is completely different from this world. In the end, practice is just a competition of internal strength. External things are actually real
It’s not important.”
Damn it, Third Senior Brother is not trying to teach him philosophy.
Although Zhao Xun was a liberal arts student in his previous life, his biggest headache was philosophy.
This subject solves the questions of who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going.
A hundred people will have a hundred explanations for this question, and there can be no unified answer.
Facts have proved that Shan Chang's strength is beyond doubt.
The gap between the best in the world and the second in the world is also extremely obvious.
When the mountain leader is serious and exerts his strength, no one can stop him.
When the mountain chief returned to Zhao Xun and other academy disciples very calmly, almost everyone rushed forward excitedly and saluted respectfully: "See the mountain chief."
"Well, Xiao Qizhu, you have lost a lot of weight and become a lot darker."
Faced with so many disciples, the mountain leader only loved Zhao Xun. While stroking Zhao Xun's cheek, he said softly: "You have to take good care of yourself, otherwise you will feel very sorry for your master."
Well.
Zhao Xun felt a little embarrassed when he saw this.
What is the chief doing?
It made him feel a little weak.
To praise him like this in front of so many senior brothers and sisters, people didn't know what to do for a while.
What should I do if my brothers and sisters are jealous?
No, it’s impossible for senior brothers and sisters to be jealous of him if they have such broad minds, right?
"Oh, by the way, Chief Shan, where is the High Priest of the Demon Sect?"
"He was injured and ran away."
Shan Chang said in a neutral tone.
"Ran?"
Zhao Xun was obviously very surprised.
In his impression, Shanchang's Qinggong skills were not inferior to those of the High Priest of the Demon Sect.
"You didn't chase him?"
"He used the method of shifting places. I don't know where the node he originally set is, how can I chase it?"
Shan Chang hit the point with one sentence.
It's not that he doesn't want to chase, but he doesn't know which direction to pursue.
The vast prairie stretches as far as the eye can see.
If you chase it blindly, you may not get results all day long.
"This old guy is very suspicious and very cautious. He must have made complete preparations in advance before he dared to set off. I was also sure of this, so I sealed off as much as possible. But he used the magic sect's housekeeping skills
There is nothing you can do if you use the method of transfiguration."
The mountain chief also looked helpless.
"Chief, is he seriously injured?"
This time it was Long Qingquan who spoke.
As the third disciple of the academy, he is still very concerned about the safety of the group.
Although it is safe now that Shan Chang is by his side, what if the Demon Sect's high priest launches a sneak attack?
Long Qingquan would not be surprised by anything such a sinister person did.
"He was seriously injured, and his cultivation level has plummeted. Whether he can maintain the super level is a matter of two questions. It is impossible for him to cause trouble again in a short time."
The mountain chief obviously understood what Long Qingquan was worried about and said straightforwardly.
Long Qingquan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"That's good, that's good"
"Well, Third Brother, you must be injured too. Don't think too much about it these days, just take good care of your injuries."
The mountain chief patted Long Qingquan's shoulder and said.
"Second brother, Yao Yan has been thinking about you these days when you are away from home, and he has come with you this time. You two can talk about it if you have anything to say."
"Thank you, Chief Shan."
Second senior sister Liu Yingying's face turned red and she turned and left.
"Ahem, Boss, Sixth, and Ten. You guys should leave for a moment. I have something to say to Little Seventy-Two alone."
Damn it.
Zhao Xun was shocked when he heard this.
What kind of bicycle is Mr. Shan doing?
Is there anything I can't say in front of my brothers and sisters? It has to be so mysterious.
Of course he would not express these thoughts.
The mountain leader doesn't know how to observe the mind, so he definitely doesn't know what he is thinking at the moment.
"Xiao Qi-Two, how much do you know about the Portal of Darkness?"
Um?
Dark door.
The mountain leader seems to be really concerned about this thing.
"Reporting to the Chief of the Mountain, my previous understanding of the Dark Portal came from that dream. Later, on your order, I came to Mobei with my brothers and sisters to track down the whereabouts of the High Priest of the Demon Sect. We also learned from the locals one after another.
I knew some of it from my mouth, but it was all fragmented."
Zhao Xun said very honestly.
"Until I met the High Priest of the Demon Sect, my disciple only knew a little bit about the Dark Portal. However, after leading the Demon Sect's High Priest out, he told my disciple a lot about the Dark Gate."
Zhao Xun repeated what the High Priest of the Demon Sect had said to the mountain chief. The mountain chief listened intently for a long time.
"It's exactly the same as what he told my teacher just now. It seems that he didn't lie."
Zhao Xun knew that when the mountain leader was silent, it usually meant that he was thinking.
What is the chief mountain thinking about?
What is on the other side of the Dark Portal?
For the mountain leader, this may be a very serious topic, right?
After all, top cultivators are definitely not at the same level as what rookies like them think.
"If what the High Priest of the Demon Sect said is true, killing him will not solve the problem. The Dark Portal seems destined to open, it is just a matter of time. Even if he is killed, at most it will delay the opening of the Dark Portal.
."
The chief of the mountain was in a very uneasy mood.
"Xiao Qizhu, have you ever thought about what it would be like if you had a mirror image of you in another world?"
Ah this
Sir, can you please stop raising this kind of philosophical question? Although my disciple, I am a liberal arts student, I am the worst at learning philosophy.
"Maybe we'll greet each other and then have a fight?"
Zhao Xun followed his inner thoughts and said.
The mountain leader nodded and said, "I think so too."
No, no?
When the mountain leader asked Zhao Xun, he actually wanted to confirm his thoughts?
If that's the case, it's understandable.
"Well, if there really is a person in that world who is the mirror image of Master, that would be really tricky. If his heart is good, that's fine. If his heart is evil, just like the high priest of the Demon Sect, then it will be difficult for Master to be like him.
There will inevitably be a fierce battle."
The chief of the mountain was very excited.
"Can I say that I still have some expectations for my teacher? In this world, my teacher actually has no opponents, and in that world, there are too many unknowns. No one knows until the moment the Dark Portal opens.
what happens."
Zhao Xun wondered, could this be the legendary Schrödinger's cat?
That's all, let the mountain chief say whatever he says, who calls him the boss?
"Chief Shan, I don't think we need to worry about these now. First of all, we don't know when the Dark Door will open, and secondly, we don't know whether parallel time and space and twins exist. If all this is true, then do it
Okay. Isn’t this what you always teach us, take life and death lightly and do whatever you don’t accept.”
"Haha, what Xiao Qi Er said is right. Take life and death lightly, if you don't accept it, just do it!"
Shan Chang's mood suddenly became much higher.
I have to say that Zhao Xun is really a pistachio for him.
No matter how the mountain leader's mood fluctuates, Zhao Xun can always calm his mood easily.
"The top priority right now is to search for the traces of the High Priest of the Demon Sect. He can't run far even if he is injured. Even if what he says is true, I don't care. I will kill him first, so that at least the door to darkness will be opened.
The time will be pushed back a lot.”
"Well, now that you are here, we have a backbone and we feel more at ease. Just give us your instructions and leave the errands to us juniors."
The high priest of the Demon Sect was seriously injured and returned to the royal tent.
Ashina Zhuo was shocked when he saw this scene.
In his memory, he has never seen the High Priest of the Demon Sect injured, not even once.
In his mind, the realm of the Demon Sect's high priest is unfathomable.
How could such an unfathomable person be injured so easily?
How high does one have to be to be able to hurt the High Priest of the Demon Sect?
Could it be that the mountain chief took action?
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is the only possibility.
"Is the mountain chief here?"
Ashina Zhuo's voice was already trembling.
The High Priest of the Demon Sect nodded and said: "Yes, the Mountain Chief is here. Fortunately, I have set up the illusion before and used the method of transposition to change it in time, otherwise I might have told him there. The Mountain Chief is still too strong.
.”
Ashina Zhuo was silent.
The High Priest of the Demon Sect is an extremely arrogant person, and it is almost impossible for him to admit that someone is strong.
I'm afraid there is only one person in the world who can do this, the Mountain Chief, right?
"Now what?"
"Everything goes as planned."
The High Priest of the Demon Sect said without thinking: "Although the Mountain Chief is powerful and has no rivals in the world, he is not omnipotent. His sense of smell is not sensitive enough, so he will not be able to find our location quickly. Wait until he comes.
The door to darkness has probably already been opened, so we don’t need to be afraid of him."
"You mean, there are people in that world who are as powerful as the mountain leader? Or people who are as invincible as the mountain leader?"
"No, it's someone more powerful and invincible than him."
The High Priest of the Demon Sect emphasized: "As long as the Door of Darkness is open, not to mention the Mountain Chief, even all the practitioners in the world combined will not be able to defeat it."
hiss.
Ashina Zhuo took a deep breath when he heard this.
If it were true as the High Priest of the Demon Sect said, wouldn't it be too terrifying?
Prairie people believe that the strong is respected.
If the people in that world were really that powerful, wouldn't they have a sense of superiority when they came to this world?
Don’t they look at people in this world just like they look at pigs and dogs?
If that's the case, wouldn't they have no choice but to be the slaves of those guys?
Apart from this, Ashina Zhuo really can't think of any other options.
"You don't have to worry, the God of Darkness will maintain the balance. If there is a problem with the balance, the God of Darkness will adjust it in time."
As if he understood what Ashina Zhuo was worried about, the High Priest of the Demon Sect pointed out directly.
"If that's the case, then of course it's for the best."
The words of the High Priest of the Demon Sect made Ashina Zhuo feel slightly at ease.
"Then I will give the order and everything will continue as usual."
Western Region.
Liu Lin looked at the city in front of him and finally gave the order to attack the city.
The Anxi Army is very good at siege warfare, and has prepared a series of siege equipment such as rams, battering rams, and trebuchets in advance.
Under his order, the soldiers of the Anxi Army loaded stones into trebuchets and smashed them against the city gate.
Stones roared and smashed towards the city gate.
But with loud banging bangs, the city gate was smashed out of the deep pit.
As for the situation at the top of the city, it was also very tense. Some stones the size of millstones directly hit the top of the city, grinding the soldiers on the wall into a pulp.
The eyes of the Western Region soldiers who witnessed it were full of horror.
They really don't understand why the Anxi Army has such sharp siege equipment.
With the trebuchet around, how could they possibly defend the city, if they didn't just have to eat ashes?
It's too difficult, it's really too difficult.
"Don't panic, get down, get down first."
The Anxi Army's attack was like a gust of wind and rain, and the soldiers from the Western Regions at the top of the city were really panicked at first.
But gradually they have calmed down.
They start to fight back!
Although they did not have trebuchets, they did have bows, arrows, crossbows and other sharp weapons.
These guys don't have the same range as the trebuchet, but their coverage is even better.
Upon seeing this, Liu Lin quickly ordered the shield hand to raise the shield.
The role of the shield bearer at this moment is to protect the Pao Ze brothers behind them.
The shields, which were as tall as a man, were raised high above their heads to protect their vitals.
The purpose of this is very important. As long as the first wave of arrows does not hurt them, the Anxi Army will launch a charge next.
After all, the trebuchet is just a cover, they still have to rely on a frontal charge to defeat the opponent.
"Kill, the time has come for revenge."
"Brothers, the time has come for us to wash away our humiliation."
"If you make great achievements, you will be given a wife and a son."
The momentum of the Anxi Army's charge was like a rainbow piercing the sun, and they were under the city wall in a matter of seconds.
"Take the ladder!"
In terms of execution ability, Anxi Army is one of the best.
They quickly set up the ladder and then climbed up the ladder.
"Don't look down, just climb up."
"Yes, never look down. Don't be afraid and nothing will happen."
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army are all veterans, so they will naturally not make the mistakes that only new recruits make.
But both new soldiers and veterans will face fear during combat.
It is impossible to completely eliminate this emotion and can only be suppressed as much as possible.
As long as this emotion can be suppressed for a long period of time, it will be a success for the soldiers of the Anxi Army.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Western Region Army at the top of the city were throwing down the rolling logs and stones that had been prepared, and there were even boiling oil.
This thing only needs to be poured down a little to scald people to the point where they are soaked all over and their skin is scalded.
"Don't hesitate, smash them to death, and don't let any of them go."
The general from the Western Regions who directed the battle to defend the city shouted at the top of his lungs.
He knew very well that he had to bite the bullet now.
Whoever can bite this breath will win.
And if this tone leaks out, they will suffer disaster.
After experiencing the betrayal of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, the Anxi Army was holding a bad breath in its stomach and had no place to let it go.
If the Anxi army were allowed to take this city, how would they have a way to survive?
In order to save their lives, they could only hold on to the end without hesitation.
Siege warfare is cruel, and so is defensive warfare.
But in comparison, the pressure on the defending side was greater.
Because what they face is the problem of survival.
If they cannot defend this city, they may face losing their lives.
"What are you doing here? Why don't you throw stones? Haven't you had enough to eat?"
"Hurry up and throw down the rolling logs and rocks. Never put a single soldier up."
"Smash it down, smash them all down."
At this moment, human instinct is fully expressed.
At this moment there is no difference between man and beast.
Almost everyone knows very well that they cannot breathe a sigh of relief, because once the breath is released, it is too difficult to pick it up again.
"Brothers, don't be afraid. Those rebels are just a bunch of paper tigers. We just charge. We can take the city in less than a day."
"Yes, brothers, don't hesitate, just go for it."
The soldiers of the Anxi Army were already holding back their energy, and now they were stimulated and even more energetic.
"Brothers, kill them and fight them!"
"Kill one and earn one, kill two and earn a pair!"
"Brothers, charge!"
The soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty climbed quickly on the ladders, cleverly avoiding fatal attacks like monkeys.
The soldiers from the Western Regions on the top of the city suddenly panicked. They never thought that the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty could be so dexterous. In their minds, the soldiers of the Anxi Army were clearly more brave than dexterous.
Now if I take advantage of the dexterity aspect, my life will really be at stake.
"Have you not had enough to eat?"
A group of officers ordered.
"Smash them all down. If you don't want to die, just do it."
"Do not hesitate!"
The battlefield was once very chaotic, and almost everyone was busy working together.
Countless rolling logs and rocks fell like snow flakes, and their intensity was more than twice as high as before!
Facing the sudden force of the soldiers from the Western Regions, the soldiers of the Anxi Army felt the pressure in an instant.
"withstand!"
The generals of the Anxi Army were trying their best to direct the soldiers to attack.
Siege warfare is so cruel, and a moment's distraction may lead to a disastrous defeat.
At this time, you must bite the bullet and never slack off at all.
Because once the breath is released, it will be impossible to build it up again.
The siege and defenders came and went, fighting fiercely with each other, and the battle was extremely tense.
"Bump the door!"
Liu Lin gave the order without hesitation.
The Anxi Army soldiers holding battering rams rushed towards the city gate.
The huge impact directly caused the city gate to tremble.
"Quick, smash them to death!"
The officers and soldiers from the Western Regions on top of the city were extremely anxious when they saw this.
Countless rolling logs and rocks smashed down the city, but they did not cause much damage to the soldiers of the Anxi Army. It turned out that Liu Lin ordered poplar trees to be wrapped with cowhide felt to form a protective shield and placed it on the heads of the charging soldiers.
In this way, most of the force of rolling logs and rocks can be relieved, without causing death or injury.
"One, two, three, hit!"
"One, two, three, add more force!"
"One, two, three, hit again!"
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army were very strong in execution, and soon a medium-sized hole was knocked out of the city gate.
The soldiers of the Anxi Army could clearly see the situation inside the city gate through this hole.
There was a look of despair in the eyes of the frightened Hu people.
You can't hide the look in people's eyes in times of crisis. The soldiers of the Anxi Army knew very well that they had won in terms of momentum.
"Keep working harder, brothers, and victory is just around the corner!"
The generals of the Anxi Army encouraged their soldiers again and again.
In their opinion, the enemy army is at the end of its strength and may collapse at any time.
"Work harder, brothers, go for it!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Facing the Anxi Army's fierce and tidal offensives, the Western Region Army obviously had no good solution.
They have tried every possible means, but the effect is the same.
The overwhelming force of the Anxi Army left them breathless.
If they gave it a try, they might be able to open the city gate and drive the Anxi army away with a fighting attitude.
But the generals of the Western Regions did not dare to make such a responsible decision.
As a result, the situation continued to deteriorate, and it didn't take long for the Anxi Army to gain the overall advantage.
Not only did they rush to the top of the city and start fighting for control, they also broke open a large hole visible to the naked eye in the city gate.
The soldiers of the Anxi Army could even drill directly through this big hole.
The battle on top of the city has become more intense.
The soldiers who jumped to the top of the city first started fighting with the enemy.
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army had a murderous intention, and they were so frightened that all the soldiers from the Western Regions did not dare to step forward.
In fact, their numbers are at an absolute advantage, and as long as they dare to besiege, they will definitely gain an advantage and even win.
But no one was willing to take that step first, so almost everyone was waiting for Pao Ze to make the first move.
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army took advantage of their psychology to make a fuss and continuously expanded their control over the city.
Fighting is a process of ebb and flow.
The more area the Anxi Army officers who climbed to the top of the city first controlled, the greater the chance that the officers who followed would be able to reach the top.
They even got a chance to breathe after boarding the city, which they paid for with their lives.
"Brothers, the opportunity has come to make contributions. Kill one to earn one, kill two to earn a pair."
"Kill!"
The momentum of the Anxi Army has been completely unleashed, and from the moment it seems that the defeat of the Western Region Army is doomed.
But they obviously don't intend to give up yet, and are still making their final struggle.
"Kill, fight with them! Either way, you will die, it's better to put two people on your back."
"Yes, if we fight with them, we are all raised by our father and mother, why should we wait for death!"
"The people from the Central Plains are not three-headed and six-armed. There is nothing to be afraid of. Let's fight them!"
The Western Region Army, which was forced into a desperate situation, finally burst out with strength and launched a counterattack forcefully.
But at this moment, the number of Anxi troops on the city's head was already quite large, and there was no local disadvantage.
The Anxi Army's combat quality and combat effectiveness were fully demonstrated when they were fighting each other in pairs. The Western Region Army was no match for them, and they were quickly defeated in a short time.
"Rush down and open the city gate!"
An Anxi Army general shouted.
Their thinking was very clear. As long as they opened the city gate, they could let Pao Ze enter the city.
Pao Ze who poured in from the city gate was the main force.
With these main forces, they can quickly control various strategic points in the city.
At that time, the army of the Western Regions could only flee and hide in the city.
Street fighting is what the Anxi Army is best at.
They can sweep through the streets one by one and control all the districts step by step. The final victory will also belong to the Anxi Army.
The gate of Yule City was opened by the Anxi Army!
This is of great significance!
When the officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army saw the city gate open, they rushed towards the city like a raging tide.
All of them knew very well that most of the city was now controlled by the robes.
What they have to do now is to rush into the city to expand the advantage the robes have gained and turn the advantage into victory.
The difference between recruits and veterans is not just courage. Compared with recruits, veterans know how to make rational use of various opportunities on the battlefield.
Once the veteran gains an advantage, it will continue to snowball and there will be almost no mistakes.
But the new recruits are different.
The new recruits are likely to waste their time fighting, ruining a good situation.
Veterans, on the other hand, will only work steadily and step by step.
They will only make such a big splash when they are sure that they are in a sure winning situation.
Rather than saying it was a wave, it was better to say it was venting.
Vent the anger in your heart.
Of course, it is far from time for a wave of war.
There are still a certain number of soldiers from the Western Regions in Yule Kingdom. They have only lost control of the city gates and city walls. They are retreating in an orderly manner under the command of the officers and generals.
Most of them evacuated towards the palace, while the remaining small number hid in the narrow alleys.
There is no doubt that street fighting is inevitable.
Liu Lin is certainly not afraid of street fighting.
As a very experienced veteran, street fighting is the best way to show your strength.
It also allows the few recruits in the army to experience a different way of fighting.
For a new soldier to become a veteran, the easiest and fastest way is to see blood and kill on the battlefield.
To become experienced, after all, he has experienced all kinds of combat.
Only in this way can he master various combat skills and be able to make targeted decisions when facing different situations without panicking at all.
After Liu Lin ordered the entire army to control all city gates to ensure that the Western Regions troops could not escape, he ordered to continuously shrink the encirclement and compress the space for the Western Regions Hu soldiers.
At the King's Palace in Yule, King Hasalka looked terrified.
He kept kowtowing to the God of Fire and praying for his blessings.
Although he had a bad premonition when the Western Region Allied Forces were annihilated on the outskirts of Shazhou, he still had illusions at that time and believed that the Anxi Army would not return to the Western Regions in a short time.
But now it seems that he underestimated the Anxi Army's determination and Liu Lin's determination.
Liu Lin rushed his troops back to the Western Regions this time, obviously to prove himself and win the trust of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, he will definitely recover the Western Regions, and he will attack the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions one by one until they are defeated and surrendered.
As the gateway to the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, the Yule Kingdom was the first to face the wrath of the Anxi Army.
As King Yule, what Hasalka feels at this moment is not supreme glory, but bottomless panic.
Just like a person alone in the abyss, no one can feel fear.
The identity of the king has now become even more of a burden. Hasalka doesn't know what Liu Lin will do with him after the palace is captured.
If there was a hole in the ground now, he would definitely jump into it without hesitation.
The identity of the king?
Bullshit!
Saving your head and your life is the top priority now.
As for this bullshit identity, it’s useless.
"Go down with the order and stand against the palace wall."
Hasalka heard that there was a secret passage in the palace, which led directly to the outside of the city.
It's just that this only exists in legends, and even Hasalka has never walked through it.
This is also easy to understand.
As a pampered and pampered supreme emperor, how could he possibly think of leaving the palace through an underground tunnel?
But at this moment, Hasalka naturally thought of this secret passage.
In his opinion, this secret passage is his life-saving straw.
If he can grab this life-saving straw, he can drag it and climb ashore.
If he couldn't grab the straw, he would probably be sucked into the water by the whirlpool and drowned alive.
Hasalka remembered that the secret passage was said to be under the bed in his palace.
His bed was an extremely luxurious bed made of ivory. The curtains on the bed were covered with colorful gems.
Hasalka trotted all the way to the palace, but he had no time to admire these beautiful gems at the moment. Instead, he knelt on the ground with his butt stuck out in a very inelegant posture.
Legend has it that the underground of this bed is hollow, and the entrance to the tunnel is under the bed.
Hasalka dragged her somewhat fat body and crawled under the bed with difficulty.
He kept tapping on the marble floor, expecting a hollow sound.
But he knocked on several floors in succession, and the expected hollow sound never appeared.
Hasalka was completely disappointed now.
He gasped for air and shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's over, it's over, it's really over now. There is no tunnel, there is no tunnel at all. This is all a lie, it's all a fucking lie."
At this moment, a gem fell from the crown on his head, and the gem happened to fall on a marble floor tile, making an extremely clear sound.
Um?
Hasalka was stunned for a moment.
What does this mean? It’s not really a hollow brick, right?
Hasalka moved with difficulty and came to the floor tile.
He knocked hard and found that the sound of this brick was completely different from that of other bricks.
Hasalka couldn't help feeling ecstatic in her heart.
It was as if he had grasped a life-saving straw and refused to let go.
Hasalka tried again and again to break open the marble tile.
But a problem arises. No matter how hard he tries or how hard he works, the brick just doesn't open.
"There must be a mechanism, and this mechanism must be touched to open the marble floor tiles."
Hasalka kept telling herself to stay calm and not to lose consciousness at this time.
He thought hard and analyzed, and finally he found a small wrench right above the floor tile.
It's really hard to spot it if you don't look carefully!
But now Hasalka pulled the wrench without hesitation.
A surprising thing happened. The floor tile under the wrench really opened in an instant.
Hasalka took a deep breath and then jumped into the tunnel.
The tunnel was very deep and long, and Hasalka rolled all the way to the bottom, feeling pain all over his body.
But Hasalka felt a burst of ecstasy.
Because this means he has a chance to escape.
As long as he can escape from the palace and escape from Le City, he has hope of survival!
He wants to live, as long as he can survive, it doesn't matter if the king doesn't do it!
"Don't be afraid, little junior brother, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. Even if that door of darkness is finally opened, it's not a big deal. Isn't there still the mountain chief here? The mountain chief will definitely not sit idly by.
Reasonable."
Under the command of Liu Lin, the Anxi Army quickly took control of all the city gates, and then launched a gradual and oppressive attack on Le City.
The ultimate target of their attack was the palace.
Most of the defenders of Yule City retreated to the palace.
These soldiers wanted to fight tooth and nail and fight the Anxi Army to the end.
Of course Liu Lin is not worried about this.
He knew that the Anxi Army was an ace army that could fight tough battles and was good at fighting tough battles.
The Anxi Army has won many thrilling battles, but this time it was a piece of cake for the Anxi Army.
The fighting ability of the Hu soldiers in Yule City is really limited, perhaps because the defenders here are old, weak, sick and disabled.
Most of the main army went to the sandbank with the thirty-six coalition forces of the Western Regions. Then they were almost completely annihilated by the Anxi Army!
This also shows that the combat effectiveness of the Anxi Army is far superior to that of the Hu soldiers in the Western Regions.
They can even eliminate the elite troops among the Hu soldiers in the Western Regions, and it is no problem to deal with the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Of course, Liu Lin still has principles.
His principle is not to disturb the people.
The Anxi Army has strong discipline and will never do anything that disturbs the people.
If Liu Lin found out that any soldier dared to do such a thing, he would be punished immediately.
Serious military management skills were the key to Liu Lin maintaining strong control over the Anxi Army.
He firmly believes that if an army wants to be strong, it must have rules.
Without rules, there would be no circle.
But one code equals one code, and the Anxi Army will certainly not embarrass the ordinary people of Yule City.
But Liu Lin naturally had to teach these Hu soldiers and the nobles of Yule Kingdom a lesson.
He wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and teach the royal family of Yule Kingdom to let the royal families of other Western Region city-states understand the consequences of betraying and resisting the Zhou Dynasty.
Of course they could betray Zhou and the Anxi army, but they had to think about the price they would have to pay.
Good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds and evil deeds will be rewarded with evil consequences.
Liu Lin wanted to make them fear the Anxi Army from the bottom of their hearts, so that no matter what happens in the future, they would never dare to betray the Anxi Army again.
"Send my order to the general, mobilize the trebuchets to the palace gate, and smash open the gate!"
The Yule Palace has a towering city wall, which is also the most important reason why the Hu soldiers retreated here, because they felt that there was limited space to defend.
But Liu Lin wanted to tell them that this judgment was wrong. In the face of the powerful trebuchets of the Anxi Army, any so-called copper and iron walls were nothing but rubbish.
Even the gates of the outer city can be smashed to pieces by trebuchets. How long can the gates of the palace survive?
"As you command!"
The soldiers quickly accepted the order with clasped fists, turned around and went to deliver the order.
Soon after, the officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army pushed the huge trebuchet in front of the Yule Palace.
They didn't even shout. After Liu Lin gave the order, they immediately activated the winch of the trebuchet and smashed the huge stones towards the palace wall.
Deep down they hate these treacherous and duplicitous bastards.
These guys relied on the Anxi Army's trust in them to carry out all kinds of little tricks behind the scenes.
They did not hesitate to stab the Anxi Army when it was most vulnerable, forcing the Anxi Army to withdraw from the Western Region.
When they evacuated the Anxi Protectorate, almost every soldier was depressed.
They swore they would come back one day.
They want to prove themselves, they want to prove that they are not cowards and losers.
They did it today. They came back and fought in front of the palace to make these two-faced, double-dealing and treacherous guys pay the price.
Anyone who makes a mistake needs to pay a price, but some are punished by humans and some are punished by God.
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army couldn't wait for God to punish them, and they wanted to teach these bastards a lesson themselves.
Bang bang bang!
The huge stone hit the palace wall, but with a crisp sound, the palace wall collapsed instantly.
The walls of the palace are more decorative than practical. How can they withstand the onslaught of trebuchets?
Liu Lin nodded with satisfaction.
Everything is under his control.
"Send my general's order and the whole army will attack."
Now the final moment of revenge has arrived. Facing these traitors armed with scimitars, the Anxi Army does not need any mercy.
"Come in and kill without mercy!"
Liu Lin's decision won the hearts of the military.
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army were all happy and excited.
They need a chance to vent and a chance to prove themselves.
Facing the cruel rulers of Le country and the ferocious Hu soldiers, they did not need mercy.
This is a battle between two armies. Since they are enemies, they naturally have to fight against each other.
In this regard, the Anxi Army does not have any psychological pressure or burden.
"Kill, the time has come for you to make a great contribution and make your wife a wife. Let's fight for the title."
"Go, go, go, kill one and earn one, kill two and earn a pair."
The soldiers of the Anxi Army were almost crazy. Encouraged by the military drums, they sprinted as fast as a cheetah.
At this moment, the defenders of Yule Kingdom were already frightened.
They retreated again and again, and had already retreated from the outer city to the palace. Now they had no way to retreat, and they had no room to retreat.
"The Anxi Army is coming, they are coming!" Gu Yuan
Someone in the palace shouted first, causing widespread panic.
These Yule soldiers were frightened to begin with, and at this moment they dispersed in a rush.
"They are really a bunch of rough guys who can't get on the stage."
"Yeah, mud can't hold up a wall!"
"I really don't know how these guys have the confidence to rebel. Don't you know how much you weigh?"
"It's true, these guys brought it upon themselves and deserve no sympathy at all."
The Anxi Army charged very quickly, and they reached the palace in a moment.
Facing the Yule Kingdom defenders who were fleeing in all directions, they pursued them without hesitation.
At this moment, there is no need to maintain any formation at all, because the remaining forces of Yule Kingdom have scattered and fled for their lives.
The enemy army has no formations to speak of, so the Anxi Army naturally does not need any formations.
They just need to catch each other and fight, and at this moment, the defenders of Yule Kingdom have long been frightened to death, and they are no match for the soldiers of the Anxi Army whether they are fighting alone or together.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Anxi Army not only wanted revenge, but also wanted to make contributions and make a wife and son.
They knew very well that as long as they could behead enough enemy soldiers, they would be rewarded by the court.
The great Zhou Dynasty favored martial arts and treated warriors very favorably.
If they accumulate enough merit, not only can they receive rewards, but they may even receive a title and join the ranks of the nobility.
This changes not only their own destiny, but also the destiny of the entire family!
For the fate of the entire family, all the soldiers of the Anxi Army at this moment were as fearless as if they had been given blood to charge.
War is cruel and war is tragic.
There is no doubt about this.
When the soldiers of the Anxi Army defeated the defense line of the Yule Kingdom defenders, they harvested the heads wantonly.
In their view, these are not heads, but military merits, titles, gold and silver, and a bright future.
With these heads, their future is bright!
And what they did was not wrong at all, because these are the rebels who betrayed Zhou Dynasty and deserve to be killed!
Under Liu Lin's watchful eye, the officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army had already begun the finishing work.
"Daduhu, do you want to go to the palace and have a look?"
At this moment, the soldier suggested from the side.
Liu Lin thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the palace first."
If King Hasalka of Yule can be captured alive, Liu Lin will have his own magical effect.
Whether it is to make other countries surrender or to further enhance the influence of the Anxi Army, it will be very effective.
Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Liu Lin strode towards the depths of the palace.
It has to be said that although the palace of Yule Kingdom is luxurious, its scale is far inferior to that of the palace of Dazhou. It is simply a world of difference.
As the protector of Anxi and the governor of the four towns, Liu Lin naturally went to Chang'an to meet the saint.
He still remembered the stretches of palaces, which he would never forget after just one glance.
As for the Danfeng Hall, the highest building in the Daming Palace, it makes people feel a sense of awe.
"Dadu Protector, this palace is too petty."
After seeing the palace of King Hasalka of Yule Kingdom, even Liu Lin's soldiers began to mock.
"You know nothing!"
Liu Lin laughed and scolded: "I have entered the Daming Palace to meet the Holy Emperor, but you have never been there. Is this your first time entering the palace?"
"Well, most of the guardians are wise. The younger one is just trying to be strong."
The soldier scratched his head and showed a very embarrassed smile.
"Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, just follow me in and take a look."
In fact, before Liu Lin entered Hasalka's palace, the soldiers of the Anxi Army had already entered the palace and searched the third and outer floors of the palace to ensure that there was no danger before they dared to let Liu Lin in.
Otherwise, what if there were a few Yule soldiers hidden in the palace and suddenly shot Liu Lin with cold arrows?
It can be said that the reason why the Anxi Army has such a strong combat effectiveness is inseparable from Liu Lin, the powerful guardian.
It is said that the Zhou army cannot defeat Zhenwei, and Jiedu envoys are a disaster.
But everyone knows that without these military governors guarding the borders, how could the Zhou Dynasty have such a huge territory and so many people?
Therefore, in the eyes of the soldiers of the Anxi Army, Liu Lin was their pride, not that the emperor was better than the emperor.
I saw Liu Lin entering the palace surrounded by a group of soldiers. He looked around and frowned: "Where is King Hasalka? He won't run away, right?"
The soldier hurriedly said: "To inform the Protector, our brothers have already controlled all the city gates. This Hasalka must still be in the city."
"You mean he fled to the city and hid in a residential house?"
Liu Lin raised his eyebrows.
"This general will not dare to lie."
Liu Lin dragged his chin and thought for a while. In fact, what the soldiers said made sense.
Hasalka, who had been pampering himself all day, must not have been able to run far. If he was not hiding in a corner of the palace, he should have run out of the palace and hid in a commoner's home.
But either way, Hasalka must have not left the city.
During the fierce battle in Yule City, the Anxi army quickly took control of the major gates of the city, making it impossible for Hasalka to leave the city and escape.
As the king of Yule, Hasalka is very important to Liu Lin and the Anxi Army.
Liu Lin naturally couldn't let him go easily.
Liu Lin cleared his throat and said, "Come on, search the whole city. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, I still have to find him."
Hasalka trudged forward in the crowded and narrow tunnel.
At this time, his disadvantage of being bloated and fat became apparent.
If he had a more symmetrical figure, it wouldn't be so strenuous to drill into a tunnel.
Of course, it's too late to complain about this now.
Hasalka had to try his best to crawl through the tunnel in order to escape.
Any feeling of complaining is inappropriate, as it will only affect his judgment and execution.
Hasalka's perseverance was not strong to begin with, and now he was driven entirely by instinct.
Once his breath is cut off, it will be difficult to resume it.
So Hasalka knew that he must not stop or rest.
He had to crawl out of the tunnel and out of the city in one breath.
The tunnel is not only cold, but also damp and muddy.
Soon Hasalka's robe was covered with mud.
This made it more difficult for him to move forward.
Because the already fat body is even heavier.
"God of Fire bless you, bless me. If I can escape and recruit troops, I will be able to fight back to Yule. At that time, I will double my offerings to you."
At this moment, Hasalka silently prayed for God's blessing.
At this moment, Hasalka suddenly heard a creaking sound.
"Um?"
What is this sound?
Hasalka was very surprised.
In his mind, this voice was very strange.
Soon he felt a small animal biting his toes.
"Ah, it's a mouse!"
Hasalka had seen rats before, and this dark and disgusting creature frightened Hasalka the most.
At this moment, he crawled forward quickly as if he had been electrocuted.
In order to escape from this hellish place as quickly as possible, Hasalka did not hesitate to use his hands and feet.
He knew very well that now was not the time to stay. No matter from which angle he looked, he should escape from here as soon as possible.
Maybe this rat acted as a stressor, but Hasalka's crawling speed obviously increased a lot.
After about a stick of incense, Hasalka was able to see a ray of light in the dark tunnel.
"It's light, it's light!"
At this moment, Hasalka laughed almost maniacally.
"Great, great, I must have come to the exit."
What it means to see light in the tunnel can be understood without further explanation.
Hasalka was very happy and rushed forward with all his strength.
Slowly he saw the entrance of the cave.
The dazzling sunlight shines in.
Hasalka instinctively stretched out his hand to block it.
This is a person's instinctive reaction when entering from a dark state to a bright light state.
But after a while, Hasalka slowly adapted to the light.
He slowly removed his palm and slowly opened his eyes.
The moment she saw the sun, Hasalka shed tears instinctively.
Tears dripped down his cheeks. Hasalka swallowed a piece of spit and climbed up using his hands and feet.
"I'm coming out. I'm finally coming out. I really don't want to stay in this damn place any longer."
Hasalka said as he climbed.
"It's out, it's finally out."
Hasalka climbed out of the hole with difficulty, holding her hands on the ground.
When he smelled the fragrant earthy scent, he realized that he should be outside the city now.
He looked up and saw, sure enough, he had already escaped from Le City.
The war-torn city of Yule has become the background, probably thousands of steps away from him.
This distance is not absolutely safe, but to some extent it is enough for Hasalka to celebrate.
"It's not easy, it's really not easy. I didn't expect that I could escape from Le City alive. The most benevolent God of Fire, thank you for your protection and blessing. One day after I come back to take revenge, I must order the whole city to
Every house in the house enshrines your statue."
As a city-state that believes in Zoroastrianism, the people of Yule have an innate affection for the God of Fire.
But even so, not every household can enshrine a statue of the God of Fire at home.
The reason why they cannot do this is not because the people are not pious enough, but because the money in their pockets is really limited.
Everyone is exhausted just trying to fill their stomachs. How can they have any spare money to make offerings to the statue of the God of Fire?
But Hasalka doesn't care about this, he must do what he decides.
Of course, what he needs to consider now is how to save his life.
This place is very dangerous, Anxi troops are everywhere.
Hasalka might be captured by the Anxi Army if he is not careful at all.
If his identity is exposed, Hasalka knows exactly what will happen to him.
Even if he is lucky enough not to be executed, he will become a puppet in Liu Lin's hands without any freedom at all.
This is something Hasalka absolutely cannot tolerate.
As a king, only others obey his orders, how is it possible for him to obey others?
This is simply an insult to him.
So Hasalka wants to escape.
Just where to escape?
Hasalka was a little confused for a moment.
Yule Kingdom is located at the easternmost point of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions and is also the gateway to the Thirty-Six Kingdoms.
The Anxi Army wanted to regain the Western Region, and Yule State was the first to bear the brunt.
So if Hasalka wants to escape now, there are roughly three routes to choose from.
The first is to take the northern route all the way north to Taoguo.
The Tao Kingdom's skill in making pottery is unique, hence its name.
However, Tao's military strength was not very strong, and the entire city's army totaled only five thousand people.
After thinking about it carefully, Hasalka ruled out this option first.
Whether he goes to seek refuge or to recruit troops, it must be a city-state with brave people and a large population.
No matter how Tao Guo looked at it, it was inappropriate.
Of course, he can still go south.
There is a condor country in the south.
The people in this country claim to be the descendants of the condor and are naturally fond of fighting.
"It seems that going to this condor country is a good choice."
Hasalka calculated carefully.
"Unfortunately, the relationship between the Condor Kingdom and the Yule Kingdom does not seem to be very good. If I go, will I be put under house arrest? Will the King of the Condor Kingdom send me to the Anxi Army?"
It's not a bad thing, but when I think about Hasalka in this direction, I feel a chill on my neck and shudder.
"No, we can't go to the Condor Country."
Hasalka shook his head repeatedly.
"If it doesn't work in the north or south, then naturally we have to go to the west."
Hasalka thought carefully for a moment and came to this conclusion.
There are many countries in the west, but the closest one is the Fire Wheel Country.
The Huolun Kingdom, like the Yule Kingdom, believes in the God of Fire.
Therefore, the relationship between the two countries has always been very good.
Hasalka often exchanged letters with Ocampos, the king of the Fire Wheel Kingdom.
After much thought, he decided that it would be most appropriate for him to join the Fire Wheel Country.
Not to mention that the relationship between the two countries is very good, the combat effectiveness of the Fire Wheel Country is also ranked among the best among the countries.
"If I go to the Fire Wheel Country, I will definitely be welcomed and warmly received by King Ocampos. At that time, I will take some time to recruit troops and horses, and call on the thirty-six countries to form a coalition to attack the Anxi Army and recapture Yule
The city takes revenge."
Hasalka clenched her fists and swore.
Under Liu Lin's order, the soldiers of the Anxi Army launched round after round of searches in Yule City.
On the premise of not disturbing the public, they searched every corner as much as possible and did not miss any clues.
But no matter how hard they searched, they could not find Hasalka's whereabouts.
The king of Yule Kingdom disappeared under the eyes of many Anxi Army soldiers.
"Defender, could it be that Hasalka is a monster?"
The soldier felt a little guilty: "I often hear people say that some monsters can transform into human form. If this guy transforms into a human form and pretends to be a king, most likely no one will know about it."
Liu Lin frowned and said: "Don't say that there are some or not. If you can't catch someone, look for problems in yourself first. Monster? If this king is really a monster, Yule Kingdom will not expose it so easily."
Of course Liu Lin knew that there were monsters in this world, just like he knew that there were practitioners in this world.
Liu Lin once had the honor to fight alongside the bad commander Feng Hao, and saw with his own eyes the power of this second-grade Martial Saint.
The strength of top practitioners is indeed immeasurable. One person at the beginning can be as powerful as an army of thousands.
Presumably monsters are similar.
If the leader of the Yule Kingdom was really a monster, how could he watch the Anxi Army easily attack Yule City?
It's not easy for a monster to control the wind and rain, but it shouldn't be easy to deal with a mere mortal army?
"The general will eventually realize his mistake."
The soldier quickly admitted his mistake.
"I guess this Hasalka has probably run out of the city."
Liu Lin sighed and shook his head helplessly.
Although he didn't want to believe this, the fact was right in front of him.
With so many people not found for so long, the possibility of Hasalka staying in the city is very slim.
"There must be a secret passage in the city that leads directly to the outside of the city, so Hasalka can escape directly along this secret passage."
Liu Lin clenched his fists and said: "It's a pity, it's a pity that this guy ran away. But it doesn't matter. One more Hasalka is nothing more than one more card in my hand. But in the end, we still have to have one card after another.
The city was defeated."
Since Liu Lin had made up his mind to regain the Western Region, he naturally could not rely entirely on diplomatic strategies.
Diplomacy is also based on strong military strength.
A weak country without diplomacy is by no means a joke.
So even if Liu Lin wants to accept the surrender of the countries in the Western Region, he must first scare them and conquer them.
And attacking Yule State was just the beginning.
Next, he will lead his troops to continue marching westward without hesitation.
He wants to repay these guys double the humiliation he has suffered!
After the Anxi Army captured Yule City, they immediately began to stabilize the mood of the people in the city and maintain daily order.
This is crucial, because it is not only related to the city of Yule, but also to the reputation of the Anxi Army.
If the reputation of the Anxi Army is ruined, they will face unprecedented resistance when they regain other city-states in the Western Region.
This was certainly not what Liu Lin wanted to see, so from the very beginning Liu Lin had ordered not to disturb the people and not to rob the people.
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army have also been insisting on implementing it.
Because they are all veterans, they understand that most protective guards are not just talking.
If they really violated military regulations, the Grand Protector would definitely order their heads to be chopped off by the military law team without hesitation.
It's obviously not worth risking your life and fortune for a little money.
Of course, most of the officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army themselves are not ashamed of such behavior.
"The Great Protector, after a round of counting, there are 100,000 people in Yule City, with a total of 23,000 households."
The soldiers immediately reported to Liu Lin after preliminary inspection.
Liu Lin nodded after hearing this.
A city of 100,000 people is nothing in the Central Plains. A super city like Chang'an has a population of more than 2 million.
Even a medium-sized city in the Central Plains has at least 100,000 people.
But in the Western Region, a city with 100,000 people can definitely be considered a big city.
"Publish the order and post notices in every street and alley, using not only Chinese characters but also Chinese characters, clearly telling the local people not to panic, we will not harm them, and telling them to live as usual, and everything will be fine as usual."
"Got the order!"
The soldiers clasped their fists and accepted the order and left.
It was obvious that the soldier was very excited.
Yes, who can’t be excited after winning a battle?
No army likes to lose a battle. This is a soldier's instinct.
Winning battles is the simplest and most direct way to resolve conflicts. No matter how deep the internal conflicts are in an army, if it can keep winning battles, there will probably be no major conflicts.
On the contrary, no matter how harmonious the army is internally, if it keeps losing battles, no one can stand it. Sooner or later, big problems will occur.
The current situation is undoubtedly the most ideal moment for the Anxi Army.
The soldiers were immersed in the joy of victory, and their emotions and fighting spirit were very high.
Liu Lin knew very well that as long as he took advantage of this, the subsequent process of attacking and regaining the towns in the Western Region would not be too difficult.
As for the reaction of the city-states in the Western Region, Liu Lin could probably guess it.
Don't look at the fact that the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions once formed an alliance and openly rebelled.
But in fact, the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions also have their own ideas.
These thirty-six countries can be roughly divided into several factions.
One of them is the unswerving main war faction, which insists on fighting the Anxi Army until the end.
These guys are also the core key to promoting the Thirty-Six Nations Alliance in the Western Regions.
Of course, there are not many countries in this group, less than ten in total.
There is another faction, the Lord Harmony faction.
This faction believes that harmony brings wealth and there is no need to break up with the Anxi Army.
But because the voice of the main militant faction was too loud, their voices were drowned out.
Therefore, the peace faction had to succumb to the power of the war faction.
There are probably several city-states in this part.
The most left are the fence-sitters.
The so-called fence-sitters are those who do not have their own clear views and opinions and just follow the crowd.
After the main war faction became strong, they didn't bother to argue anymore and went directly to the main war faction.
That's why the alliance of the thirty-six countries in the Western Region could be formed so simply and neatly.
If Liu Lin wanted to regain the Western Regions, he had to start from the internal conflicts of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.
He knew very well that the core interests of the thirty-six countries in the Western Region were different.
As long as he grasps this, there are many things he can do.
"They say you should pick the soft persimmons and pinch them, but now you have to pick the hard persimmons."
This is not because Liu Lin is tough on the neck, but because he knows the importance of killing chickens to scare monkeys and killing people to establish authority.
Once the hardest bones have been chewed off, the remaining people will have nothing to fear.
And if he had not launched a targeted attack from the beginning, it would probably have led to other factions sitting on the fence completely turning to the war faction.
Liu Lin's core idea is to attack the main war faction, win over the peace faction, and accept and absorb the fence-sitting faction.
Only when the overall idea is clear can targeted arrangements be achieved.
The Yule Kingdom was only the first step for the Anxi Army to return to the Western Regions, but it was not just that.
The Anxi Army wants to regain actual control of the Western Region, and it wants to gain more power than before.
"After winning the Western Region, I will also have to communicate with the countries far to the west to truly communicate and interact."
Liu Lin's ambition does not stop there. He wants to become a witness to history and truly leave his name in history.
King Hasalka of the Yule Kingdom headed west, and it took him an unknown amount of time to finally see the city of the Fire Wheel Kingdom.
Although the Fire Wheel Country is the closest country to Yule Country, Hasalka walks on his legs.
He wanted to give up several times, but luckily he persisted in the end.
Hungry, thirsty.
At this time, Hasalka was in very poor condition and could collapse at any time due to dehydration.
He felt as if there was a lump of phlegm stuck in his throat, and he wanted to speak, but when the words reached his mouth, he couldn't make a sound.
Hasalka moved with difficulty towards the wall of the Fire Wheel Kingdom.
The soldiers of the Fire Wheel Nation on the top of the city noticed this, picked up the crossbows in their hands and aimed them at Hasalka.
"who?"
Seeing Hasalka's ragged clothes and unkempt appearance, they wondered whether he was an enemy spy, so they asked cautiously and instinctively.
"I am the king of the country of Yule, and I want to see your king Ocampos."
Hasalka used the last bit of strength he had left and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"The king of Yule Kingdom? Haha, brother, he said he was the king of Yule Kingdom. It really made me laugh to death."
The Fire Wheel Nation soldier on top of the city laughed loudly.
"Look at what he is wearing. Is there any king dressed like this? I think you are not a king but a beggar."
Facing the guards' ridicule, Hasalka instinctively looked at her clothes.
I saw that his clothes at this moment were in tatters, as if they had been cut open by a knife.
Hasalka couldn't believe how he dressed like this.
Swallowing hard, Hasalka shouted at the top of his lungs: "I am really the king of Yule Kingdom, I really am. Yule Kingdom was attacked by the Anxi Army, and now the city has been destroyed. I am passing by
Those who escape from the tunnels really have a narrow escape. Your king Ocampos and I are close friends. Please go and tell me as soon as possible. Your king will definitely see me."
After speaking, Hasalka looked towards the city head eagerly, his eyes full of expectation.
Now the guards at the top of the city really hesitated.
I have to say that the composure shown by Hasalka is indeed not something that a beggar can do, but more like that of a king.
But is this guy really a king?
If everything is true as he said, then the Anxi Army has now completely returned to the Western Regions and captured the Yule Kingdom?
The news of the Anxi Army's comeback has long been spread. This news once spread a lot among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.
Almost everyone is panicking.
After all, they knew how powerful the Anxi Army was. If they were to fight head-on with the Anxi Army, none of the thirty-six countries in the Western Region would be their opponent.
The only chance for the thirty-six countries in the Western Region to win or draw is to form an alliance.
The arms cannot hold the thighs.
Only by twisting together can they fight against the powerful Anxi army.
"You wait here, I'll report it right away."
The guard did not dare to risk the gamble because he knew very well that he could not afford the responsibility.
If the unkempt man in front of him is really the king of Yule Kingdom as he said, he must report the news to His Majesty King Ocampos in a timely manner.
Hasalka swallowed. He originally wanted to say something more, but he still swallowed the words as they reached his lips.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
The situation is not as good as human beings, so we can only swallow our anger.
Hasalka felt so exhausted that he huddled on the ground and tried to save energy.
The weather was still very hot, with the poisonous sun hanging in the sky, and the scorching earth seemed to be cracked.
"Hey, I hope there will be a good result. Ocampos should meet me. As long as he is willing to see me, he will be able to distinguish me. I am so familiar with him and have met each other so many times.
He will definitely be able to tell me apart, even though I am now unkempt and covered in mud."
Hasalka kept comforting herself and giving herself strong psychological hints.
Time was hard to endure. Hasalka didn't know how much time had passed, but he almost collapsed from losing too much water.
Hasalka even had hallucinations at one point.
He saw double images of things, which showed that the situation was serious.
He must replenish water in time, otherwise he may die of dehydration.
"Open the city gate and let him in!"
Finally, Hasalka heard a familiar voice. He looked up and found that it was undoubtedly the guard.
Hasalka then moved with difficulty and slowly walked towards the city gate.
Hasalka's legs felt like they were filled with lead at the moment, and every step he took was very difficult.
But he was walking with joy at this moment, without any hesitation.
"We're finally here. We can finally enter the city. We don't have to suffer from hunger anymore."
The reason why he was able to walk from the country of Yule to the country of Huolun with his legs was because he was hanging in one breath.
Now I can finally relax.
The size and layout of the cities in the Huolun Kingdom are basically similar to those in the Yule Kingdom. In other words, the layout of the cities in the Western Regions are very different.
This gave Hasalka a familiar feeling.
Hasalka followed the guards through the long street to the palace.
After being searched by the palace guards, Hasalka finally entered the palace of Fire Wheel Kingdom.
He was moved to tears.
"Just wait here and I'll report it."
Before and after taking Hasalka to a hall, the guard told Hasalka to wait where he was and not to move around at will.
Of course Hasalka knows the rules.
After all, he is also a king and is very aware of the red tape in the palace.
He stood there quietly and waited. After about a cup of tea, the guard left and returned.
"Okay, His Majesty the King wants you to come in."
Hasalka was overjoyed when he heard this.
However, he still suppressed the joy in his heart and tried his best to maintain a calm and unhurried attitude.
Afterwards, Hasalka tidied her hair and clothes.
Although both of them are already messy, it doesn't look like they can be sorted out at all.
He took a deep breath and followed the guards into the main hall of the palace.
The palace hall of Huolun Kingdom was not much different from what he remembered.
It's splendid and magnificent, with materials piled up everywhere.
In this case, it can naturally give people a feeling of ultimate luxury.
"Your Majesty the King, please come with me in the inner chamber."
The guard's attitude towards Hasalka also became somewhat respectful.
Because he could roughly judge from the details in Hasalka's movements that Hasalka indeed had noble qualities.
Hasalka didn't say much, but followed the guard all the way forward.
Soon he was led to an inner room.
Hasalka had the impression that this inner room was where King Ocampos rested and also served as his study.
Hasalka straightened up her appearance again, and then strode into it.
Soon he saw that very familiar face.
"Ocampos, my old friend, we finally meet again!"
Hasalka rushed forward excitedly.
"Are you really Hasalka?"
Seeing this, Ocampos instinctively took a step back.
It's not his fault, it's really hard for him to connect the noble King of Yule with the ragged and dusty guy in front of him with Hasalka's current appearance.
Is he really Hasalka?
"Of course it's me!"
Hasalka said excitedly: "Have you forgotten that we once fished in the Holy Lake together and went hunting in the dark forest together? We shot a huge elk and a leopard covered in copper coins?"
These details are known only to Hasalka and Ocampos.
So when Hasalka said this, Ocampos was almost certain that the person in front of him was Hasalka, his good friend!
"Ah, why are you like this?"
"It's a long story."
Hasalka sighed and said: "The Anxi Army has returned to the Western Region. As the eastern gate of the Western Region, they will capture Yule State without any surprise. Although I have resisted desperately, I still cannot defeat them. Now Yule State
The city has been lost."
Hasalka looked very sad and in a very low mood.
Seeing this, Ocampos comforted him: "My good friend, this is really an extremely sad thing. If the Anxi Army really wants to return to the Western Regions, it will not be limited to taking down Yuler.
City?"
"That's true."
Hasalka followed Ocampos' words and said: "Now the Anxi Army will definitely try its best to capture all the cities. Therefore, we must form an alliance and must be consistent with the outside world. Only by doing this can we have a chance of survival.
ah."
Ocampos has always been a man without his own opinion. In addition, this time the Anxi army is coming with a fierce force, and it has the potential to sweep across the Western Regions.
Hasalka is a lesson learned from his mistakes.
The Anxi Army could easily capture Yule City, and naturally it could easily capture other cities.
The Huolun Kingdom is not much stronger than the Yule Kingdom, and the two are roughly the same size.
Ocampos did not want to end up like Hasalka, so he felt that an alliance was necessary.
Not only should he and Hasalka form an alliance, but all thirty-six countries in the Western Region must form an alliance!
What made Zhao Xun extremely disappointed when he arrived was that even though they had started searching the maximum range for the whereabouts of the Demon Sect's high priest, there was still no result.
The disciples in the academy were unable to find out the whereabouts of the Demon Sect's high priest, so they came to the mountain chief one after another to apologize.
However, the mountain chief did not blame them too much, but said in a deep voice: "Xiao Qizhu, my master can already feel the aura of the Demon Sect's high priest. He is not far from here. There must be him within a hundred miles."
His whereabouts. Feel free to go and find him."
Zhao Xun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Good guy, the mountain is still warm.
Although he knew clearly that the academy disciples had not completed the task, he did not mean to blame him at all. Instead, he offered kind words to comfort him.
If you follow such a leader, everyone will definitely be happy and try their best.
Look at Shan Chang, and then look at Emperor Xianlong, there really is no harm without comparison.
"Captain, you can rest assured. This guy pretends to be a coward and wants to run away, but he has a pretty good idea. This time, no matter whether he can fly to the sky or escape from the earth or Qimen Dunjia, I will catch him."
Zhao Xun patted his chest and promised.
With Shan Chang at his side, he felt a lot more confident.
"Haha, okay, then my master is waiting for you with good news. But Xiao Qizhu, it's best not to be able to catch the High Priest of the Demon Sect in everything. If you can't catch it, you can come and tell me.
The teacher will make him look good."
When it comes to favoring disciples, no one can surpass him.
This time the High Priest of the Demon Sect hit a rock, so he couldn't blame anyone else.
"If the Dark Portal really opens, I mean if. Maybe I will pass through the Dark Portal and enter a parallel world."
After hesitating for a long time, the mountain leader said in a deep voice.
"What? You want to go through the Dark Portal to that world?"
Zhao Xun was really surprised. He originally thought that the mountain chief would not leave him. It is because of the mountain chief that the academy can stand proudly in the world. It is also because of the mountain chief that scholars all over the world can cultivate Confucianism through literature.
Be proud.
But if Shan Chang went to that parallel fantasy world of the West, wouldn't they have nothing to rely on?
"It's not necessary to go."
The mountain leader stroked his beard and said leisurely: "I just feel that this world is a bit boring as a teacher. Do you know the feeling of not having an opponent? It is a feeling of being invincible. Although being invincible is very exciting, it is also very lonely."
Hearing this, Zhao Xun felt like he was an expert. He even suspected that the mountain leader himself was a time traveler. Otherwise, how could he be so understanding? He was simply a king of understanding.
Of course, Zhao Xun will still use all means to make the mountain chief stay.
"Chief, if you think about it this way, if the Dark Portal opens, the big guys from that world will definitely come here one after another. Why would you bother to go there in person? It's such a shame. Don't you think so?"
Zhao Xun knew that the mountain chief was a docile donkey and could not go against the grain and could only follow his wishes.
As expected, after listening to Zhao Xun's words, the mountain leader nodded in agreement and said: "Well, it seems to make sense. Xiao Qizhu, you mean that my master is waiting here, waiting for them to come and challenge me.
division?"
"good."
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "Chief, please think about it, they are only qualified to appear in front of you as challengers. And you, as a senior, are here waiting for them to take turns to come forward. How cool is this, isn't it?
?”
"really."
The chief of the mountain stroked his beard, the more he thought about it, the more proud he became.
"Okay, I won't leave as my master. I will be here waiting for them to take turns to challenge me."
The mountain leader said lightly: "We are invincible as a teacher in this world, so even people from another world can't do anything to us. Why should we take the initiative to go as a teacher? We can just wait for them to come to our door. Hmm.
, Xiao Qizi, you still know how to be my teacher."
Damn it.
After hearing this, Zhao Xun didn't know what to say for a moment.
I didn't expect that his persuasion would have such an immediate effect. The mountain leader really loved him.
"So Chief Shan, besides arresting the High Priest of the Demon Sect, all we have to do during this period is wait?"
Long Qingquan, who had been silent next to him, could no longer hold back his emotions.
Good guy, if this is what the mountain chief means, then they are really just waiting for something to happen, which is quite boring.
"Waiting is also a kind of practice."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xun said something very powerful before the mountain leader could.
Now Long Qingquan was completely confused.
"Little Junior Brother"
"Third Senior Brother, don't you think so? Waiting is also a kind of practice."
Zhao Xu clicked his tongue and said: "There are many types of practice, including quiet ones, dynamic ones, radical ones, and gentle ones. Only by being able to accept all kinds of practices can we become an extremely powerful practitioner both internally and externally. This is very important to us.
It is both a training and a test.”
“Although I don’t quite understand it, I think it makes sense.”
Long Qingquan was completely convinced by Zhao Xun and murmured.
