Text Chapter 309: A Line of Blood

"Stones, pile up and save arrows."

Luo Yu's hoarse shout came from the barrier of the mountain gate of Longyan Mountain. His face was stained with blood, and his battle robe had changed from white to gray. Stones piled up at least ten meters above the mountain gate. A high wall, and only this kind of defense can withstand the impact of the imperial army. From a distance, there are crowds of people at the foot of Longyan Mountain, and the battle flags of the Yihe Kingdom stand everywhere. Luo Yu couldn't help shivering, and looked at Wei Qiu beside him At a glance, no one knew what to say.

"I don't know how the control is going..." Wei Chou held the Demon Devouring Bow with a hint of worry on his face.

Luo Yu patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Wei Chou, don't worry, the head of the group is auspicious, and everything will be fine, alas... the brothers we arranged at the bottom of the mountain have already withdrawn to the mountain, otherwise it wouldn't be the case The news is not clear, in my opinion...Brother Wei Chou, you can be regarded as a warrior with both civil and military skills, why don't you just join our Longdan Battalion and become a dragon-level commander?

Wei Chou gave a wry smile: "The empire is gone, so where is the Imperial Forest Army... Now for Wei Chou, as long as he can protect His Highness, it is enough."

"Okay...then it's decided, you join the Gendan Camp, from now on we will be brothers who live and die together."

"Um."

At this time, a group of people and horses came galloping up the mountain. Qin Yin, dressed in the plain clothes of a village girl, got off her horse and boarded the small stone fortress, with Chu Yao and Qin Yan guarding her.

"Your Highness, be careful..." Chu Yao looked down the mountain and said, "They have a lot of archers."

Qin Yin nodded: "I'm fine, sister Chu Yao, you have to be careful, Qin Yan, protect sister Chu Yao."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Qin Yan stood in front of Chu Yao with a shield, like a god of war guarding him.

"How's the situation?" Qin Yin asked.

Luo Yu clasped his fists and said: "Your Highness, they sent at least fifty thousand more troops, maybe more, to surround Longyan Mountain, presumably they wanted to capture Longyan Mountain in one fell swoop, but...it was not that easy. When Longyan Mountain was taken down, we began to reinforce everywhere, even on the back mountain we have our bow and arrow sentries, and the only passage is easy to defend and difficult to attack, these bandits of Yihe Kingdom will never succeed."

"Um."

Qin Yin nodded, and asked again: "Is there any news about brother Ah Yu?"

"No." Luo Yu shook his head and said, "We have lost contact with Lanyan City, and even the entire continent. All the letter birds have been lost or flew away, but don't worry, Your Highness. Fate is big, nothing will happen."

"En." Qin Yin's bright eyes revealed endless worries, she looked at the Yihe people at the foot of the mountain, she could not help biting her red lips, and said, "Perhaps... if I go down the mountain and hand myself over to Yihe, The more than 1,000 horsemen in the Long Dan Battalion can still survive..."

"No."

Luo Yu, Qin Yan, Wei Chou and others knelt down one after another. Luo Yu looked up at Qin Yin, and said, "Your Highness, you are the only blood of the Qin family... We were born and died for the empire. If something happens to Your Highness, we will take Why tell Master Lin Muyu, if we lose His Highness, we would rather kill ourselves on Longyan Mountain."

Qin Yan nodded in the same way: "Yes, my father and His Majesty were killed by the Yihe Kingdom together. I will not avenge this revenge and swear not to be human."

Qin Yin looked at the crowd silently, and murmured: "The Qin family is really lucky for the empire to have such support from everyone. Get up, but we just keep guarding on the mountain and don't know what's going on down the mountain. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for too long." .”

Chu Yao said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, there are sufficient food and water reserves on Longyan Mountain. There should be no problem in persisting for a month, and within a month, your grandfather should be enough to know our situation here and lead troops to reinforce it."

"I hope so..."

Qin Yin didn't dare to expect grandpa's reinforcements too much, her eyes flickered with a blurred look, and said: "I just hope that Brother Ah Yu will not have any accidents..."

"Be careful, another wave of their attacks is coming."

Luo Yu squinted his eyes and looked down the mountain, saying: "Archer, get ready."

Wei Chou raised his hand and pulled out an arrow from the quiver, saying: "They sent heavy shield soldiers here, hey... everyone give me white diamond arrows, the mountain road can accommodate up to 20 people to pass together, they We will shoot as many as come up."

"yes."

Everyone nodded. At the foot of the mountain, Yihe Kingdom's densely packed shield soldiers came, but they were killed and wounded immediately after being baptized by the white diamond arrow at the mountain gate. The white diamond arrow was very sharp, and could shoot through the heavy shield and kill the soldiers. There were corpses lying outside the mountain gate, more than five hundred volunteer soldiers died on the hillside.

"Be careful when throwing your gun." Wei Chou suddenly lowered his head.

Immediately dozens of spears flew past overhead, Luo Yu chuckled and said, "They retreated."

Sure enough, after throwing a round of javelins, the volunteer soldiers retreated before they even had time to clean up the corpses.

"Open the gate and pull out the white diamond arrowhead from the corpse to save some money."

"yes."

When a group of soldiers from the Long Dan Battalion were packing up the arrowheads under the city, Chu Yao suddenly frowned, sniffed her nose, and said, "Did you smell a strange smell?"

"Um."

Qin Yin nodded and said, "It smells like oil."

Wei Chou was taken aback, and said: "It's black beech oil, God damn it, do these beasts want to use fire to attack?"

"Thought it was right." Luo Yu pointed to the distance and said, "Look, the catapult has already gone up the mountain, our place... but it will become a sea of ​​flames in a while..."

"Despicable southern barbarian." Wei Chou gritted his teeth.

If the Yihe Kingdom used a catapult to throw flaming black beech oil onto the mountain, the consequences can be imagined. Long Qianlin also used this vicious trick to force Feng Jixing to hand over the military power of the imperial army. Now Yihe The country has repeated its old tricks.

...

At the foot of the mountain, more than a dozen projection vehicles were arranged in a criss-cross pattern, and at the same time, the soldiers brought buckets of black beech oil. On the side, a commander-in-chief with a smug face smiled and said, "Hey... Long Qianlin used The 300,000 troops failed to capture Qin Yin, the result still depends on me, Xiao Ren, hehehe..."

At this moment, a group of people rushed over from afar. Sitting on the horse was a general wearing two gold stars. He was Ding Xi, the Chief of the Sunset City.

Ding Xi rode over slowly, looked at the barrels of black beech oil, and said calmly: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Ren clasped his fists and said, "General Ding, the remnants of the empire at Longyan Mountain are very tenacious. We have been attacking for three days but have not been able to conquer them. Therefore, the last general decided to use fire to make them safe from danger. In this way, our Yihe Kingdom The heavy cavalry will be able to flatten this Longyan Mountain."

"presumptuous."

Ding Xi raised his eyebrows and said, "General Xiao Ren, let me ask you, who is the commander of the 70,000 troops besieging Longyan Mountain?"

Xiao Ren was taken aback, and respectfully said: "Of course it is General Ding Xi, you are the commander-in-chief appointed by Dadu..."

"That's good."

Ding Xi said coldly: "Before I ordered the Longyan Mountain to be set on fire, no one could use fire to attack. Take away these things for me and send heavy troops to surround Longyan Mountain. As long as we cut off their water source, they will be destroyed." After the Northern Expedition, our Lingnan soldiers have lost nearly 150,000 horses, and there can be no more casualties."

"yes."

Xiao Ren smiled and said with a villainous face: "The general is sympathetic to the soldiers. It is really a blessing for our three armies. The last general will do this. He must be surrounded so that not a single fly can fly out of Longyan Mountain."

"Um."

Ding Xi nodded, looked at the back of Xiao Ren going away, his eyes flickered, stretched out his hand to press the cold sword hilt, and whispered softly: "General Lin Muyu, I respect you as a hero, but Ding Xi really doesn't know how to help How can you stop the world from fighting?"

...

In spring, the sun was already very hot, scorching the earth recklessly, as if all the battles on the earth had nothing to do with it, and in fact it seemed to have nothing to do with it.

After nightfall, starlight falls on the earth, nourishing everything.

This originally quiet and peaceful land was baptized by blood, and the villages around Lanyan City were also baptized by blood, wailing everywhere, civilian corpses everywhere, and even many wild dogs and hungry wolves have already fled from the edge of Xunlong Forest Go out, drag and devour the corpses of the slaughtered people.

"Gulu... Gulu..."

A chariot formation consisting of eight chariots was united to haul a huge amethyst stone. The stone was wrapped in black cloth and ropes were tied vertically and horizontally. It took a thousand cavalrymen to escort the stone. The group, the convoy entered the Xunlong Forest straight under the starlight, until they came to a depression in the deep mountain.

The commander who led the army suddenly frowned and said, "What's the smell?"

"It's a bad smell." A centurion pointed to the middle of the mountain and said, "Look, my lord, a giant python has died here. It has been decomposing for a long time, and the bones are already exposed."

"Um."

The commander stepped forward on his horse, covered his nose and looked at the python's head, only to find that there were 10 gold threads neatly arranged on it, and couldn't help frowning: "It's a pity that the ten thousand-year-old python died... Someone dig up its head to see if there are any spirit stones."

Several heavy cavalry stepped forward, looked through it, and said, "No, it's empty."

"snort."

The commander's eyes turned cold, and he said: "Come on, let's bury the amethyst stone in this huge pit. The dead man and the dead snake are buried together. Hey... it's a good match."

"My lord is wise."

The people hurriedly used slings, crowbars and other tools to overturn the huge amethyst stone and threw it into the mountain depression, and then began to dig the soil to bury it inch by inch, but there were wolves howling all around. Seeing that the amethyst stone had been covered by the soil, the commander immediately raised his hand and said, "Okay, anyway, there are few people around here, and no one will find this thing, let's go."

The Yihe soldiers got on their horses and left one after another.

...

But no one noticed that the starlight in the sky slowly gathered and projected on the soil where the amethyst stone was buried, as if guided by some strange force.

"Lin Ruoji, you bastard, I owe you what I owed you in my previous life, and I still have to waste my divine power to suppress your three souls and seven souls."

There was an inaudible complaint from the amethyst,
