Chapter 105 Demon Siege, Real Gang Change, Borrowing Soldiers, Demon Warriors
Liuye City.
late at night.
The lights in the general's mansion were brightly lit, and a group of strong men with strong auras were sitting inside, and the atmosphere was tense.
Sitting at the top was a middle-aged burly man, Lu Ruyuan, the general who guarded Liuye City.
"Everyone, I have just received news that the demon clan has sent three groups of troops, totaling 3.5 million, towards Liuye City, Yanyun City, and Qixiong City. The number of demon clan troops heading towards our Liuye City is about 80.
Wan, the leader should be Russell, do you generals have any good ideas for this?"
Lu Ruyuan's energetic but serious voice echoed throughout the entire hall of the General's Mansion.
As soon as these words came out, all the generals' faces became serious.
"It's Russell!"
"General, according to the news, Russell has already reached the third level of the Martial Emperor, and at least two of his lieutenants have already broken through to the Martial Emperor. With the three Martial Emperors, it is already difficult for us to resist with their high-end power alone."
"Yes, General, our Liuye City garrison only has 500,000 troops, and the opponent's army has 800,000 troops. The number of troops is also completely unequal. We cannot fight this battle. We can only defend to the death."
"For the current plan, I think we must borrow troops, otherwise we won't be able to stop them for long."
"Borrowing troops? Humph, that's easy for you to say. From whom to borrow troops? From the Marquis of Zhennan? Can you borrow his troops?"
"Why can't he borrow it? How can he dare to be alone in the face of a powerful enemy?"
"The Marquis of Zhennan is no longer the Marquis of Zhennan he used to be. He only thinks about his one-third of an acre of land now. Borrowing troops from him is difficult in one word! We can only wait for the army sent by the imperial court."
"No matter how difficult it is, we have to give it a try, otherwise we won't be able to stop it at all! No matter what happens next, we must at least block the first wave of attacks first."
The general below was talking a lot, but Lu Ruyuan's eyes were always calm.
As the general guarding Liuye City, Lu Ruyuan could not make any mistakes in the face of the menacing demon army.
He looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I will personally write to the Marquis of Zhennan regarding the borrowing of troops, and the left deputy general Qiu Ye will personally deliver it. The other generals must not relax at all. During this time, all the troops will be organized."
We must defend together with our own strength, and at the same time ensure good logistics. Liuye City is the first level and must not be broken. You don’t have to worry too much about high-end combat power. Although Russell is strong, apart from us, the Demon Slayer Division’s guardian envoys and
The patrol angels will also fight with us when the time comes. We will not suffer in terms of high-end combat power, but only a small amount of troops. But we have city defense and strong logistical support. Even if the Marquis of Zhennan does not borrow troops, we
We will not lose. Therefore, we must stay calm next time. As long as we don’t mess up our position, we have won. As soon as the reinforcements arrive, we can launch a counterattack!"
Hearing that the Demon Slayer Division would also join the battle, the generals breathed a sigh of relief and clasped their fists at the same time: "Yes, General."
But everyone knows that this battle will not be easy.
Not only Liuye City, Yanyun City and Qixiong City are also deploying soldiers and horses from various places.
Among them, Yanyun City, where the prince is located, gathered an army of 1.5 million in a short period of time.
This is the case in the Southern Region, which directly faces the Demon Realm, and the Western Region is not optimistic either. According to intelligence, the Monster Tribe is also gathering troops and preparing to attack the Ming Dynasty, and the Orc Tribe opposite Death Valley is also trying its best to bypass Death Valley, preparing to fight the Barbarians from the north.
Attack the Ming Dynasty together.
As for the Snow Tribe, since they were separated from the Daqian Dynasty and could not directly use troops against the Ming Dynasty, they began to contact the barbarians through envoys, preparing to send troops to assist the barbarians and attack the Ming Dynasty together.
As a result, the war in the north suddenly became tense. Jiang Tianxing's 1.4 million army, which was originally guarding the north with impregnable strength, was now simply not enough.
Fortunately, the Orcs and Snows have sent envoys to the Barbarians to negotiate. It will still be some time before their differences and concerns can be properly resolved.
After all, it is very dangerous to allow other races' troops to enter the mainland.
This is a double-edged sword. If these two families suddenly turn against each other and attack from both sides, the barbarians who are fighting the Ming Dynasty will probably be completely defeated.
The movements of the Beast Tribe and the Snow Tribe have been intercepted by the Demon Slayer Si Tianwang Department, and this information is being fed back to Wei Chun and the imperial court. At the same time, it is also being fed back to Jiang Tianxing in a timely manner, so that Jiang Tianxing can prepare for the war.
According to information from the Skynet Department, the Sea Tribe is also eyeing the Human Tribe. A large number of sea monsters have gathered on islands hundreds of miles away from the coastline. It seems that they will launch an attack on the coast of the Ming Dynasty at any time.
Except for the normal border areas between the Daqian Dynasty and the Dazhou Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is now surrounded by enemies on almost all sides, and the situation is very bad.
Daming Palace.
Jinluan Palace.
Zhu Xuan sat on the dragon chair and looked at the civil and military ministers with majestic eyes.
"Everyone, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only a short time. Foreign tribes are eyeing our Ming Dynasty and have already sent troops to attack. All ministries have made full preparations. Food, grass, and equipment will be sent to the front lines with the five million troops immediately. No mistakes should be made! If there is any delay, Kill without mercy! Anyone who cheats will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
All the ministers saluted and responded.
Zhu Xuandao: "The left minister of the Ministry of Rites immediately went to the Dazhou Dynasty and asked them to send troops to jointly resist the Demon Clan and the Sea Clan. The right minister of the Ministry of Rites immediately went to the Daqian Dynasty and asked them to send troops to deal with the Snow Clan."
"Your Majesty, what should we do if Zhou is unwilling to send troops?"
The left minister of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward and said.
"Haha, it's their business whether they send troops or not. It's our business whether we send troops. You just need to ask them to send troops. Don't bother with the rest. You just need to tell Emperor Zhou that everyone is a human race. , are neighboring countries, and the Ming Dynasty has always believed in courtesy and exchanges."
Zhu Xuan said with bright eyes.
He turned to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites and said: "The same is true in the Daqian Dynasty, and this sentence is also brought to Emperor Qian."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The waiters on the left and right bowed in response.
…
Canglan Mansion.
Palace.
In the secret room, Jiang Nan is refining the broken bones of the demon fetus.
What surprised him was that after refining, there was a faint golden light on the green fruits on the tricolor tree.
"What's the difference between the golden qi-blood fruit and the ordinary green fruit?"
Although the two were different, he wasn't worried.
The God-Demon Body has the function of balancing divinity and demonic nature, and since it is a fruit produced by a three-color tree, there is nothing to be afraid of.
With a thought in his mind, a green fruit emitting light golden light disappeared.
"The Sutra of Prison Suppression on the Great Sun" is running quickly.
The true energy in Dantian changed rapidly, the quantity became a little smaller, and obviously the quality improved!
Every trace of true agitation has powerful destructive power, and at the same time, it is like being plated with a layer of golden light.
Jiang Nan was overjoyed.
I didn't expect that the green fruit refined from the broken bones of the demon fetus would have such an effect.
Then the serious refining began.
The broken bones of the demon fetus are much more difficult to refine than imagined.
Time passed slowly.
I don’t know how much time passed, but all the broken bones of the demon fetus were finally refined.
Jiang Nan looked at the green fruits emitting light golden light on the three-color tree, and her heart was filled with anticipation.
With a thought, the golden green fruits disappeared one by one, the true agitation in the body was churning rapidly, the "Great Sun Prison Suppression Sutra" was running rapidly, and the true agitation was transforming...
When all the golden green fruits disappeared, not only did the true energy not increase, but only half of it remained.
But Jiang Nan was overjoyed.
If the former Zhen Gang was pig iron, then the current Zhen Gang is fine steel!
Totally different.
Moreover, the properties of polar anode and polar yin are even more extreme.
The cultivation level that was originally a little frivolous due to the rapid breakthrough to the third level of the Grand Master has completely settled down at this moment.
In addition to the golden green fruits, there are also many ordinary green fruits on the tricolor tree.
Jiang Nan didn't hesitate and immediately refined all the green fruits.
With so many green fruits, if it were before, it could at least raise the cultivation level to the fourth level of the Grandmaster.
But now, the Dantian of the Third Heaven has not been filled up yet.
His cultivation level has not improved, but Jiang Nan knows that his strength has improved, and the magnitude is not small.
"This demon fetus broken bone is really good, but I don't know where to get more of this thing... Hey, there is a demon fetus in the Demon Suppression Tower in Kyoto..."
But thinking of this, Jiang Nan quickly gave up this idea.
Even Wei Chun, who was at the peak of the Martial Emperor's career, could not do anything about the demon fetus, and the demon fetus and the demon fetus' broken bones were completely different concepts. It was still too risky for him to go now.
Exit customs.
Jiang Nan stood up and felt a crackling sound all over his body. This was caused by sitting upright for a long time without moving.
When he walked to the hall, he saw He Gang sitting there. When Jiang Nan came out, He Gang's face suddenly lit up.
But then he was surprised when he discovered that Jiang Nan's aura was that of the Third Heavenly Master.
Good guy!
This retreat directly broke through two small realms. This talent is simply terrifying!
"Master He, do you have something to do with me?"
Jiang Nan interrupted Meng Hong's thoughts and asked.
Generally speaking, as a patrolling angel, He Gang is either in charge of the Demon Slaying Division or traveling to various places to capture demons, so he cannot be so idle.
Seeing Jiang Nan asking, He Gang looked solemn, stood up and clasped his fists, saying, "Sir, the demons have begun to attack the city."
Jiang Nan nodded.
Demons often harass the frontiers and attack cities. This is a common occurrence.
He Gang didn't take Jiang Nan seriously, knowing that Jiang Nan didn't know the true meaning of the demon siege.
"This time is not a small fight, it is a large-scale war that sieges cities and plunders thousands of miles of red land! This time the demons invested a total of nearly five million troops in the early and late stages!"
He Gang said.
Jiang Nan was shocked.
Five million troops!
Is the demon clan so big this time?
"When did it happen?"
"Ten days ago." He Gang said, "Not only the demon clan is attacking the Ming Dynasty, but it is said that the sea clan in the east and the demon clan in the west are also attacking the Ming Dynasty."
The Sea Clan and Monster Clan are also attacking the Ming Dynasty... Jiang Nan was shocked.
Such a coincidence?
Could this be a long-planned war?
The Demon Clan and the Monster Clan may join forces because of their close proximity, but the Sea Clan, who are tens of thousands of miles away from the Demon Clan, are also dispatching at the same time. Could it be that the Sea Clan, the Monster Clan, and the Demon Clan are also joining forces?
"The Demon Clan and the Sea Clan only attacked the Ming Dynasty? Didn't they attack the Zhou Dynasty?"
"No." He Gang said, "This is also the most strange place."
This is not an ordinary strange thing, it is too unreasonable.
Could it be that the Zhou Dynasty and the demons were colluding?
But this is obviously impossible.
Unless Emperor Zhou was kicked in the head by a donkey, or Emperor Zhou was no longer Emperor Zhou but a monster, Da Zhou would never mix with monsters.
"Where is the north?" Jiang Nan narrowed his eyes and asked, "How are the barbarians in the north?"
"I don't have any information about the barbarians yet," He Gang said truthfully, "but now there is a fierce battle in the southern region. The demons divided their armies into three groups to attack Yanyun City, Qixiong City and Liuye City. Yanyun City is because of
With the prince here, the army is abundant, with a total of nearly 1.8 million soldiers gathered. The Seven Heroes City is guarded by the Sixth Prince, and there are 1.5 million troops. However, the demon army that attacked these two cities was only 3 million, and the remaining
All the two million people spent directly attacked Liuye City."
An army of two million demons!
Jiang Nan was shocked.
"How many defenders are there in Liuye City?"
"Eight hundred thousand." He Gang sighed: "But now I guess it would be good to have half a million left."
"Where are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court?" Jiang Nan frowned.
Under normal circumstances, when such a large-scale war occurs, the army that the court usually trains will quickly fill in.
"Not yet." He Gang said.
"Are there no soldiers and horses in the inner city?"
"Yes. The Marquis of Zhennan has 300,000 regular troops, and it is said that there are 500,000 irregular troops, but he will not borrow them."
"Why?"
"His fiefdom is at the left rear of Liuye City. Once the demon army crosses the Hengjiang River directly from the left, his fiefdom will bear the brunt. Once he lends his territory, it may become ruins."
Jiang Nan frowned.
Zhennan Hou Nan Yongxian's concerns are not unreasonable, but if he does not borrow troops, it will be equivalent to pushing all the soldiers in Liuye City into a pit of fire.
This is a typical case of not saving anyone!
In fact, if the borrowed troops can withstand the attack of the demon army, it will provide time for the imperial army to come later.
"By the way, where is Master Meng?"
Jiang Nan asked.
"Master Meng has already gone to Liuye City, but it is said that there are many masters of the demon clan this time. Even if Master Meng goes there, he may not be able to completely influence the situation of the battle."
He Gang said.
Jiang Nan nodded, and then with a thought, a golden token appeared in his hand, and he said seriously: "Take this Golden Dragon token, borrow 300,000 troops from the Marquis of Zhennan with my order, and quickly go to Liuye City.
reinforce!"
He Gang's pupils shrank.
The Golden Dragon Token was engraved with four big characters "As if I were here in person". Jiang Nan gave the token to him without hesitation, which shows his trust in him.
He Gang knelt down on one knee, raised his hands in the air, and said solemnly: "He Gang obeys your order!"
Jiang Nan handed the Golden Dragon Order to He Gang: "Let's set off immediately without any delay!"
"Yes, Sir Envoy!"
He Gang took it and left quickly.
Jiang Nan looked towards the south, his eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with a touch of coldness, but at the same time there was also a touch of excitement.
By killing the demons, he will get a large amount of Qi and Blood Pills.
The opportunity to significantly improve your strength has arrived!
This time he will awaken all the dragons in his body, and build a dragon nest to breed true dragons.
Once a true dragon is born, his strength will skyrocket!
But before that, he needed to prepare enough Jingyuan Pills, but now he didn't have any in his pocket.
Just as I was about to go out, Yunmeng came.
"Brother Jiang Nan, are you out of seclusion?"
Yunmeng was overjoyed.
Jiang Nan nodded and said with a smile: "Meng'er has gained a lot from this retreat. Are you about to enter the Fiery Sun Realm?"
Yunmeng nodded, "Well, it's almost over."
"By the way, Brother Jiang Nan, I heard that the demons launched a large-scale war this time, and the front is very dangerous. Do you want to go to Brother Prince?"
Jiang Nan shook his head, "I won't go to the prince's side for the time being."
Yunmeng breathed a sigh of relief.
But before the breath came out completely, Jiang Nan continued: "I want to go to Liuye City first, where I am needed more."
Yunmeng's expression changed. She knew that the situation in Liuye City was very bad, but she thought about it and finally did not stop it.
Some things can be stopped, but some things cannot be stopped, because their identities determine that they cannot retreat.
Yun Meng remembered Jiang Nan's original words, and also recalled what he once said: "We want to become demon-slayer warriors."
Yes, I, Yunmeng, will also become a demon-slayer warrior!
Now is the time!
"Brother Jiang Nan, I want to go too!"
"No!" Jiang Nan decisively refused.
Are you kidding me? You have to have someone protect you when you go, which is an added burden to the soldiers of Liuye City!
"It's true that I am a princess, but I don't have to go as a princess. I just go as a soldier of the Ming Dynasty!"
Yunmeng rarely listened to Jiang Nan's words.
"That won't work either!" Jiang Nan refused again.
"I am a princess. If I were here, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty would also be deeply inspired. I can comfort people in the rear. I will not go to the front."
Yunmeng's face was solemn and she said seriously.
"Besides, Mulan and Lan Ling have now entered the King's Realm, and are protected by two King's Realm masters, so their safety is not a problem.
What I practice is killing skills. If you don't let me go to the battlefield or kill demons, do you want me to become a useless person? I don't want to become a useless person, I want to become a demon-slaying warrior like Brother Jiang Nan!"
These words left Jiang Nan speechless.
But he didn't expect Mulan and Lan Ling to break through, which was an unexpected surprise.
Jiang Nan thought for a while and said: "Okay! But you have to be obedient and not take risks! This time I will teach you another song, a song suitable for war."
Yunmeng's big eyes suddenly brightened up, and her little head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"I'm going to the Chamber of Commerce to buy some Jingyuan Dan. Do you need it here?"
Jiang Nan said.
Yunmeng shook his head, "I don't need it, there are a lot of top-quality Essence Pills here."
Jiang Nan shook his head secretly, the emperor really doted on the little girl too much, even equipped with the best Jingyuan Dan.
He suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, the strong man who secretly protected you, is he still there now?"
Yunmeng shook his head, pursed his lips slightly, and said, "I don't know either."
"However, I don't like him following me. It's like being watched all the time. It makes people very uncomfortable."
Jiang Nan smiled slightly and comforted: "Maybe he has left and is not here at all. Okay, I will go out for a while and you can clean up. We will leave soon."
"Yeah." Yun Meng nodded.
Jiang Nan immediately left the palace and headed to the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.
About half an hour later, he came back, and this time he bought a large amount of Jingyuan Dan.
There are low-level ones, intermediate ones, and high-level ones.
Basically bought all the Jingyuan Pills from the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.
I even bought a lot from other chambers of commerce.
If these Jingyuan Pills are used by ordinary people, at least ten people can cultivate to the realm of the Martial Emperor.
But for Jiang Nan, she is not so optimistic.
It would be good to be able to cultivate to the realm of kingship.
With the mutation of his True Gang, he now consumes a very large amount of Jingyuan Dan.
He not only bought Jingyuan Pills, but also some Qi and Blood Pills.
These Qi and Blood Pills are prepared for the White Dragon Horse and the three Blood Dragon Horses.
If Meng Hong was here, he would not improve the strength of these horses.
But things are different now.
He needs to rush to Liuye City as soon as possible, the faster the better.
Returning to the palace, he quickly refined the Qi-Blood Pill, and the Qi-Blood Fruits grew on the three-color tree.
When he walked to the horse pen at the back, the four horses looked up at him, each with fiery eyes and a touch of kindness.
Jiang Nan noticed the expressions of these four horses and felt a slight movement in his heart.
These four horses swallowed his Qi and Blood Fruit and actually felt attached to him.
This is a good thing and means the horse is easier to control.
"Come on, open your mouth."
Jiang Nan said.
The white dragon colt and the three blood dragon horses all opened their mouths.
Jiang Nan then popped four Qi and Blood Fruits into their mouths respectively.
The Qi and Blood Fruit melts in the mouth and quickly turns into energy that spreads throughout their limbs and bones.
Jiang Nan had been paying attention to them. Seeing that they were fine, he said again: "Open your mouth."
The four horses opened their mouths again.
Four more Qi and Blood Fruits were shot into their mouths...
In this way, after feeding them four times in a row, there was no change in the white dragon colt. However, the bodies of the three blood dragon horses shook with a sudden force, and a powerful aura emitted. Their physical bodies obviously changed, becoming stronger and their auras were terrifying.
Obviously, these three blood dragon horses have all broken through.
Is it considered a monster?
Jiang Nan stared at them closely.
But for a while, they didn't change into monsters.
Jiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he looked at Bai Longju, thought about it, and directly fed him three Qi and Blood Fruits.
However, the White Dragon Colt remained unchanged.
These three Qi and Blood Fruits were like nothing, which surprised Jiang Nan.
"I want to see how much you can eat. Open your mouth."
Bai Longju opened his mouth as told, and Jiang Nan threw three more Qi-Blood Fruits in.
Boom~
Bai Longju's body was shaken.
Breakthrough!
But Jiang Nan found that except for some changes in Bai Longju's breath, there were no other changes, and she was satisfied.
As long as you don't turn into a monster, everything is easy to say.
Jiang Nan said: "Come with me, we are about to set off."
He turned around and left, followed closely by the white dragon colt and three blood dragon horses.
But he didn't notice that Bai Longju's eyes changed, his big eyes were a little crooked, and there was a trace of joy hidden in them.
