Zhou Cang left before dawn. Before leaving, he went to Zhang Yan's mansion as scheduled and personally received a box from Zhang Yan. Inside was said to be a set of sleeveless inner armor. In Zhang Yan's words, this inner armor
A is the same weapon as the "Zhanfeng" hanging on Zhou Cang's waist.
Zhou Cang understood. Zhan Feng is a "magic weapon", so this inner armor must also be a magic weapon!
What is the confidence to save life? This inner armor is enough. Zhou Cang could only say "Thank you for the time being", hugged Zhang Yan's shoulders hard, and then started on the journey. Zhang Yan could only hand it over.
Say goodbye.
We have traveled far and wide, and I don’t know if we will see each other again. After all, the inner armor of a low-grade magic weapon that Zhang Yan made overnight is just a dead object. It can have a good protective effect, but it cannot necessarily protect Zhou Cang’s life.
.In the end, it all depends on Zhou Cang’s luck.
It was also from this day that not only Zhang Yan, but the entire Langyuan City could feel the cloud of war coming from the southwest, and more and more people began to be affected.
The first is the rise in prices. Even with the pressure from the local government, the price of rations has still increased by a full 20% in just half a month! And you must know that this is just the beginning of spring, when the harvest is slow, the price increase of rations is a big deal. If it goes up further
If the rising trend cannot be contained, big trouble will occur.
Secondly, the soldiers from the garrison began to knock on the door together with the yamen servants according to the household registers. The first ones to be taken away were families with many children, and each family had to have at least one male to enlist in the army. Even if they were willing to pay for military service, they would not do it.
Even the big families and wealthy businessmen in the city are the same.
Military service is normal in Nanyuan Kingdom, and every household has to send someone. But it is rare to knock on the door and take someone away. What's more, the situation in the southwest is so difficult, how come even the common people don't know about it? So even if it happens again
People who are slow to react can also think of the place where they will go after this recruitment. It must be Xiyuan County or Chonglan County in the southwest.
A narrow escape from death!
The sound of crying has almost accompanied the streets and alleys of Langyuan City for the past half month. Although every family is reluctant to give up their children, but the military order has arrived at the doorstep, who dares not to go?
Besides, this is to fight against the demon clan, and the righteousness is here, who can argue with it?
Not to mention the common people and wealthy businessmen in Langyuan City. The situation in Xiangkou is similar. Even Zhang Yan has seen no less than three spontaneous enlistment rallies of students in Jiangwu Academy during this period. Compared with those who have never
Having wielded spears, and some have not even killed pigs before common people, the martial arts students in the martial arts academy are naturally more capable of dealing with battle formations. They also have a greater awareness of the defense of their country.
In fact, this is one of the reasons why the Kyowu Academy enjoys a very high status in various countries. It is indeed the hall that trains the most martial artists in all countries. In times of trouble, the students of the Kōwu Academy can indeed be called the backbone of the country.
In addition to the news in Langyuan City, Zhang Yan also learned about the latest military deployment of the Nanyuan Kingdom from Xiao Shu's chat. He was surprised to hear that the Nanyuan Kingdom actually transferred the Eastern Army Commander Shi Xuan's troops from Tong.
The troops outside Huguan were transferred to the west of Changhu County.
In Xiao Shu's words: "Now Tonghu Pass is only defended by the two or three thousand people on the pass. At most, plus some soldiers carrying baggage, the number will not exceed 10,000."
Although Zhang Yan does not understand military affairs, he can still understand the map. Changhu County is southwest of Beijiang County, next to Zhongding County, and Zhongding County continues to the southwest to Xiyuan County. Originally, the Eastern Army The location is to guard the Beiwu Kingdom to the north of Tonghu Pass. At the same time, you can use the official road from Beijiang County to the south to go straight down and see the line across the water.
But now that the Eastern Army has arrived to the west of Changhu County, it should strengthen the defensive power of Zhongding County and take into account the defense along the Yueshui River. But it directly leaves the Tonghu Pass vacant.
Is Nanyuan Kingdom's military strength already stretched to this extent?
Although these things around him are drawing Zhang Yan's attention, after all, the war in Nanyuan Kingdom does not concern him too much. He has the ability to protect his family, no matter whether Nanyuan Kingdom can bear it at that time .Facing the demon country, he can take his family with him. Facing other countries of the human race, he is confident and unwavering.
However, when Shen Wujiu appeared in front of him, Zhang Yan realized that things did not seem to be as troublesome to him as he thought.
"Sir, something big happened!"
Shen Wujiu looked far more panicked than he had ever seen Zhang Yan before. There was even obvious fear and confusion on his face.
In the Zhang family's main room, Shen Wujiu indeed brought Zhang Yan some news that surprised him.
"Since three days ago, Beijiang County has been experiencing frequent cases of ravages of spirit tribes. But there are many differences from before. This time, even the livestock were not spared. Whenever something happened, a Zhuangzi got off the chicken. Inuburi. This has never happened before..."
"Starting again?" Zhang Yan frowned. Logically speaking, he almost saved Xu Fengbai last time in Langyuan City. As the number one ghost king of the human spirit clan, Xu Fengbai should at least choose to avoid the edge temporarily. ?Under the premise of knowing how powerful Zhang Yan is, do you still let the ghosts under his command come to die?
This is unreasonable and illogical.
However, what frightened Shen Wujiu was not just the discovery that the Spirit Tribe had begun to wreak havoc again, but that there was something terrifying in it.
Just listen to Shen Wujiu continue to say: "We contacted the demon species and asked their people to come over and have a look. The result of the demon species' statement is that the recent cases of ravages of the spirit race are not from the human spirit race. But the Demon Spirit Clan!"
"Demon Spirit Clan?!"
Zhang Yan couldn't help but sit up straight. He understood why Shen Wujiu suddenly visited and looked so panicked. Because like the comparison between the demon clan and the human clan, the demon spirit clan is generally much more powerful than the human spirit clan. More One thing is that the Demon Spirit Tribe will not harm people in a sneaky way like the Human Spirit Tribe. Instead, they like to sweep through the city as if they were attacking a city. No chickens or dogs will pass through.
"Yes, what the demons say is that the demon spirits have come to Nanyuan Kingdom!"
Shen Wujiu had to panic. The Special Case Division could not deal with the Demon Spirit Clan. As powerful as the Demon Kingdom, it was just fighting back and forth with the Demon Spirit Clan. This still took up a lot of the Demon Clan's talents against the Spirit Clan. It was only possible through means. If it were a human race... Shen Wujiu would already be in a bit of a mess.
"How come the demon spirits are wreaking havoc on the human race's territory?"
"I don't know. But I came to see you this time to ask if you can find the Dead Silence Road? Because this time there is no trace like before, nor is it the first few locations you have blocked before. ." Shen Wujiu couldn't care less about being abrupt. If the demon spirits coming to Nanyuan Kingdom to wreak havoc can't be stopped, it will definitely be a bigger event that Nanyuan Kingdom can't bear than the military disaster in the southwest.
