Eight hundred and fortieth chapters Chang'e flies to the moon
Entering the palace, from a distance, both sides of the hall were full of guards with swords glowing coldly. It seemed that after Ouen succeeded to the throne, even more guards in the palace had been deployed. A guard captain stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Sir, please disarm your weapons and horses, otherwise you will not be able to enter the hall."
I was slightly startled. Originally, there was no such regulation when Locke was in power. The generals who were qualified to go to the palace were generally important ministers of the empire. There was no need to worry about assassination. It seemed that Ouen's sense of security was really too low. Even this All kinds of regulations have come out.
With a flick of my hand, I had already put the Longchi Sword and the Zhenyue Sword into my bag, then put the Shenlie Dragon Horse into the pet space, and walked up to the main hall with my bare hands. There were only a dozen ministers in the hall, and Ou En stood steadily. Sitting on the throne, behind him is Jiuxi, who represents the power in the world. Ten capable guards are guarding behind Ou En, while Princess Pei'er stands at the foot of the steps on the right side of the king's throne, with no expression on her face. , just looking at me from a distance.
…
"Li Xiaoyao, commander of the Royal Forest Army."
O'En slowly stood up from the throne and said: "You went to Bahuang City to recruit soldiers from the barbarian tribe this time. What kind of reward do you want? Of course, Gu is not stingy."
I always felt that there was no hidden dishonesty in these words, so I bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I don't need any reward. It is the duty of the imperial generals to contribute to the empire and strengthen the army and establish prestige."
"good."
Ou En raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an incomprehensible smile, and said: "Commander Li Xiaoyao is indeed loyal and patriotic. He is a role model for the imperial soldiers. Come on, I will reward you with an axe."
The so-called ax is actually a symbol of military merit. It is a prop hung in the army and can probably improve the morale of the imperial guards to a certain extent.
The guard on the side helped me take the axe, and I bowed again to thank him.
Owen continued: "After Selin's death, the sea has been calm and calm, but recently, the dark moon spirits from the north have begun to build warships. The archery skills of these dark moon spirits are unparalleled in the world. Along the Iron Skull City and Wangyue City were plundered all the way, causing Iron Skull Empire and Wangyue Empire to suffer miserably. If they were allowed to continue their rampage, sooner or later they would threaten the coastal security of Tianling City. These Moon Spirits from the Dark Moon Spirit territory totaled about 10W Among the people, their archery skills are extraordinary, and even the alien demon army has shunned them, but the majesty of the Tianling Empire cannot be desecrated, which general is willing to fight for the empire to conquer these dark moon spirits."
Xu Yi, the new commander of the Yanlong Army, came out and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the Royal Forest Army has nearly a hundred warships and is the most elite naval force in the empire. The general believes that the Royal Forest Army should be sent to fight. Commander Li Xiaoyao can fight well, and he will definitely be able to do it. Let’s win the battle and make those Yueling girls dare not invade the territory of my Tianling Empire again.”
I looked up at Xu Yi, frowned, and said: "Your Majesty, the Royal Forest Army has continued to fight in the Sea of No Return, Deer Lake, Awe Plains, and the barbarian tribes have always been able to rest, and they have opened up wasteland in the Fire Crystal Basin. The soldiers are tired and need a period of rest before they can fight again, and... Since the Dark Moon Spirits are riding in warships, we must have already had a very strong naval force. Why don’t we set up camps along the coast and wait for work to deal with them? Our The army has abundant resource supplies from Tianling City behind it, and the Dark Moon Spirit simply cannot fight us for a long time."
Princess Pei'er took a step forward, cupped her fists and said: "Brother, what Li Xiaoyao said is true. There is no need for us to compete with the Dark Moon Spirit on the Sea of No Return. Besides, although the Sea Monster Clan has gone into hibernation, it is not unreasonable." It does not mean that all the Kraken clan have been killed. Once the Kraken clan joins the war, the warships we send out to sea will simply be destined to die."
Ou En smiled slightly: "I understand, that's it. Commander Li Xiaoyao of the Royal Forest Army will obey the order."
I cupped my fists and said, "Yes."
Ou En said: "Let your Royal Forest Army rest for half a month and go out to war after half a month. I don't care what method the Royal Forest Army uses, but the warships of Dark Moon Spirit must be driven 100 miles away from the territory of Tianling City, otherwise the Royal Forest Army will dereliction of duty."
I took a deep breath and said, "The Royal Forest Army receives the order."
Standing next to Pei'er, I frowned. Ouen had imposed the task of Dark Moon Spirit on the Royal Forest Army. NND, after becoming the emperor, Ouen seemed to have changed from a shrewd and capable commander of Xia Yu's army to a The boss was handed over to me, but fortunately, he didn't openly quarrel with me, otherwise with his current position of power, I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Next, there were discussions again, all about wars on the border between the two countries. The three main cities of Wangyue City, Linhai City, and Huoyun City were already in contact with Tianling City. They were all local battles, but they also foreshadowed A storm is coming, the Wings of Heroes World Finals are over, can the national war be far behind?
…
As night fell, I left the Tianling City Palace. The atmosphere inside was really depressing.
When I returned to the Imperial Guard camp, Han Yuan and Xiao Li immediately came forward and asked me what the emperor had said. They seemed to be very sensitive and knew that the Imperial Guard was now at the forefront.
I didn't say what the emperor meant, I just said: "The army of the Dark Moon Spirit territory has gone to sea and set sail on the Sea of No Return to plunder the humans on the south coast. The emperor has given the task of resisting the Dark Moon Spirit to the Imperial Forest Army. You guys Immediately go to the city to recruit craftsmen, immediately go to the Sea of No Return, and build ten small fortresses on the coastline. The fortresses are defended with dragon crystal cannons and fire rock cannons. Each garrison has 1,000 soldiers. Then build a port to defend it. Dark Moon Spirit."
Han Yuan nodded: "Yes, General."
Xiao Li frowned: "Dark Moon Spirit is actually ready to make a move."
Me: "What's wrong with Dark Moon Spirit?"
Xiao Li said: "The Dark Moon Spirits are a cursed clan. Legend has it that they are the unclean products of gods and humans. However, the Dark Moon Spirits are all girls. They have practiced archery since they were young. They can all move with a hundred steps. In addition, She has a beautiful face and graceful figure, so in the past few decades, it has been a miracle for one or two dark moon spirits to appear on the mainland occasionally. Moreover, once these dark moon spirits are caught by humans, most of them will be chained up, and they can do whatever they want. It is a taboo for the rich to have fun with. It is probably because of this that the Dark Moon Spirit hates humans so much. General, it is really a hot potato for Your Majesty to entrust us with this task."
I nodded: "I know too, but I must obey your orders."
"Yes, I understand."
…
Until the evening, the craftsmen were working very fast, and the prototypes of fortresses had been built on the edge of the Sea of No Return. Groups of surrounding guardsmen were carrying stones, artillery, etc., and at the same time sent out light boats to patrol the sea for search. Once the Dark Moon Spirit's warship appears, we will be warned as soon as possible.
Riding the dragon horse, I walked on the coastline with my sword in hand. Looking at the ocean in the north, I couldn't help but sigh. This game is really too mature, and it actually made me obsessed with this ruthless life of soldiers and horses. Or maybe there really is a passionate and warlike heart hidden deep in my heart.
Behind me are the hundred-man Guards Cavalry sent to me by Han Yuan, all of whom are outstanding in skill. Although I don't want to ask for it, Han Yuan said that a leader should look like a leader, and he should always be alone. It's too unsafe to go alone. In fact, when I look at the NPC soldiers behind me, the highest ones are at the Ancient level. There isn't even a quasi-BOSS. I'm afraid they can't even defeat me...
At this moment, suddenly a Royal Forest Army cavalry commander flew over from a distance and said in a deep voice: "Commander, a man who claims to be the Marquis from Tianling City wants to see you. Do you need to see him?"
I was stunned: "Let him come."
"yes."
A few minutes later, a fat man weighing about 300 kilograms galloped over under the protection of a group of guards. His weight did not crush the horse under his crotch. I glanced at it and knew that it was a thousand-mile horse. This Lord Marquis He looks very rich, but what is he doing here?
The fat man rode up to me with an unruly attitude. He looked at me and said, "You are Li Xiaoyao, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Forest Army."
I nodded: "It's me, you are."
He laughed loudly and said shyly, "Even I don't know that I am Ben Yuehou who was personally consecrated by the previous emperor. This is my token. General Li has taken good care of it."
I glanced at the token, and there was indeed a figure flying to the moon, and there was also a scene of a graceful woman flying into the sky. I couldn't help but frown and said, "Is this Chang'e..."
Ben Yuehou smiled: "General Li is indeed very knowledgeable. Yes, this Chang'e is a peerless goddess who flew on the moon and lived in ancient times. Legend has it that she has the most beautiful face and the most charming figure in the world. , the emperor gave me the title of Ben Yue Hou so that I can one day fly to the moon, invite this goddess to the mortal world, and spend a night with the emperor."
I finally couldn't help but smile.
Ben Yuehou glanced at me bitterly: "General Zhennan, why are you smiling?"
I suppressed my laughter and said seriously: "So, the true meaning of the existence of the Marquis Ben Yue is to collect beauties from all over the world for Your Majesty."
Ben Yuehou laughed and admitted bluntly: "Yes, Ben Yuehou is here for this, so Commander Li Xiaoyao, let me tell you directly. I am here this time just to discuss something with you."
"What's the matter?" I raised my eyebrows.
Ben Yuehou's face was full of lust, and he said with a smile: "The Royal Forest Army will definitely fight against the Dark Moon Spirit in the near future. If you capture a live Dark Moon Spirit girl during the battle, don't kill it, sell it to me. , how about, for an adult dark moon spirit, I will pay... um, 5,000 gold coins to buy it, no, I am willing to pay 10,000 gold coins to buy it, there is no upper limit, how about it."
I was stunned: "It seems that Ben Yuehou is really rich. The entire Imperial Forest Army's arsenal is only a few hundred thousand gold coins. You are actually willing to buy the Dark Moon Spirit for 10,000 gold coins each."
Ben Yuehou raised the corner of his mouth and continued to say with a shy expression: "How can a warrior like you understand the joy between the bed and the bed? All you need to do is answer me, are you willing to sell the Dark Moon Spirit to me?"
I turned around and looked at the Sea of No Return. I couldn't help feeling disgusted in my heart. I smiled and said, "I am only responsible for defending the Sea of No Return and protecting the territory of the empire. I am not a businessman. Don't come to me for this kind of thing."
"snort."
Ben Yuehou sneered: "General Li, you can take care of yourself."
