Text Chapter 346: The Hungry Armored Demon

The gilded Crane Palace Lantern was flickering with faint flames, and Qin Yin sat kneeling beside the long Empress's table, reviewing the files and memorials handed over by two maids, and further away, Feng Jixing, Su Yu, Xiang Yu The three of them stood there together, with respectful expressions. Apart from them, there was no one else in the Palace of Review.

"Is there still no news about the mighty legion?" Qin Yin didn't look up, and the brush continued to lightly outline the strong handwriting on the memorial.

"No."

Feng Jixing shook his head and said: "Since they sent the last feather letter at the eastern border of Cangnan Province, there has been no more. Mostly because the climate and terrain in Lingdong Province are very complicated, the message It doesn’t make sense, even Xinniao can’t travel through thousands of mountains and rivers to come to the imperial capital.”

"That can't be so helpless."

Qin Yin frowned and said, "Aunt Yu, you should immediately send a feather letter to the government of Yunzhong Province, asking them to send more people to Lingdong Province to investigate the news of Yangwei Army, we can't just sit and wait like this .”

Su Yu bowed and said: "The general will know, please rest assured, Your Highness Yin."

"Um."

Qin Yin put down her pen, looked at the content of the memorial, nodded in satisfaction, stood up and said: "I haven't been able to sleep well these days, and I feel uneasy in my heart. I always feel that something will happen. General Xiang Yu, How is the deployment of troops in Cangnan Province?"

Xiang Yu clasped his fists and said, "The general will personally send 100,000 troops to Wugu City, and they will be able to meet the imperial army from Lingdong Province at any time. Please rest assured, Your Highness, everything will be fine."

"If it's convenient..." Qin Yin glanced at Xiang Yu and said, "General Xiang, please go to Wugu City immediately and lead an army of 100,000 to reinforce Lingdong Province."

"Ah." Xiang Yu was taken aback, and said, "Your Highness, Lord Lan and Lord Yun have not heard about this matter yet, so it might not be appropriate for us to act rashly."

On the side, Feng Jixing said: "Xian Yu, you are the descendant of the military god Xiang Wentian and a general of the empire. If you don't listen to His Highness' orders, who else do you want to listen to? Could it be that the Great Qin Empire is no longer in the hands of the Empress? Yet."

Xiang Yu frowned and said: "Your Highness, I don't intend to offend you, but please understand your difficulties. The 100,000 troops deployed by the Cangnan Province are all from the Seven Seas Province, and all the ten thousand commanders are direct Those who obey Duke Lan's order, without Duke Lan's order, may not be able to mobilize the army even if they go to Wugu City."

"I see."

Qin Yin raised her hand to pick up a piece of imperial edict, and said, "I've finished writing the edict, you take it to Lord Lan, and say it's my order, I hope Lord Lan can obey orders."

Xiang Yu hurried forward, accepted the imperial edict respectfully, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty will go to the Duke's Mansion immediately, please wait a moment, Your Highness."

"Well, go and come back quickly."

"yes."

Xiang Yu turned and left, while Qin Yin watched him leave the Palace of Review and Political Affairs. At the same time, her beautiful eyes followed the night sky and looked towards the east, where the stars were shining brightly, but the person who was thinking in her heart didn't know what was going on. Qin Yin wished she could give birth to A pair of wings flew to Lingdong to see if Lin Muyu was doing well, but the empress's robes locked her here firmly like a cage.

Su Yu's eyes flickered, and seeing Qin Yin's worry, she smiled softly: "Xiao Yin, don't worry... There will be nothing wrong with Yangwei's 100,000 troops attacking Lingdong, the main force of Yihe Kingdom's army has already You don’t need to worry at all since you are in Lingnan, and Weihou Min Yulin has a long experience in the battlefield and is able to lead his troops well, and Ayu, as the chief deacon of the temple, has extraordinary cultivation, it is impossible for anything to happen.”

"Well, I know, thank you, Aunt Yu."

Qin Yin walked down the steps, came to Su Yu's side, shook Su Yu's hand, and asked, "How is grandpa's illness?"

"It's just a little bit of cold. I've asked Chief Deacon Chu Yao of the Spiritual Medicine Department to diagnose it, and the prescription has been prescribed. After a few doses, I should be fine. Don't worry about him."

"Um."

Qin Yin looked up at Feng Jixing, who immediately lowered his head and cupped his fists with a respectful expression.

"Commander Feng, at the court meeting tomorrow, how about you to propose the reorganization of the Imperial Forest Guard and the White Robe Imperial Forest?" Qin Yin said with a smile.

Feng Jixing nodded, with a calm face on his face: "Don't worry, Your Highness, such matters can only be handled by me, Feng Jixing, a pawn."

Su Yu couldn't help laughing at the side, and said, "Don't worry, Commander Feng, the matter of the Yulin Guard has been put on hold for too long, and my father won't go to the palace tomorrow. Even if Duke Lan objects, this agenda should be passed."

Feng Jixing nodded: "Well, I hope so."

Qin Yin blinked her eyes and said, "Originally, there were six white-robed imperial forests in the empire, but now there are only two left, Commander Feng and General Du Haihai. It's time to promote a new white-robed imperial forest. When I return, I plan to promote him to the White Robe Yulin, do you think it is good?"

Feng Jixing laughed: "Ah Yu has extraordinary cultivation, coupled with his virtue and ability, it is a well-deserved title to serve as the white-robed imperial forest."

Su Yu also smiled: "Xiao Yin, since ancient times, the candidates for the white-robed Yulin and Yulinwei have been determined by the emperor alone. You don't need to ask for anyone's consent, this is your right."

"Well, thank you, Aunt Yu."

The night wind blows through the Zetian Temple, and the swaying pearl curtains tremble slowly, making a soft rustling sound, as if a girl is expressing her unspeakable longings and expectations deep in her heart.

...

Lingdong Province, Winterfrost City.

"What is this."

In the main hall of the city, a group of people surrounded a demon corpse with bird wings, all of them were stunned. It was the first time for everyone here to see another branch of the demon clan, the Winged Man, which is also the demon clan. It is the only race branch that can fly at high altitude, and it is a rare humanoid that can fly on the mainland.

"It's this thing that burned our granary." Min Yulin asked with a frown.

"Yes."

Lin Muyu bowed and said: "It's my fault that these demons burned the grain and grass warehouses, and I ask you to punish them."

"Alas..." Min Yulin sighed, and said, "It's not your fault that the demons are cunning. General Lin Muyu, how much food and grass do we have now, and how long can we last?"

"The only thing left is the rations that have been made into cakes by the Spirit Medicine Department, which is only enough to last for two days." Lin Muyu added: "And it can only last for two days when the rations are halved."

Min Yulin gritted his teeth and said: "Then let the brothers suffer a little bit more. From now on, the ration will be reduced to 30% of the daily ration, so that we can last for a few more days. If the imperial reinforcements don't come, we can only kill the horse. "

"Kill the horse..."

Min Zhan was the commander of the Tianqi Army, and he said with heartache: "Father, if we don't have horses, we will completely lose the advantages of speed and long-distance travel. I am afraid that even one person will not be able to escape..."

Min Yulin said lightly: "Zhan'er, if we don't kill the horse, we will all starve to death here, let alone escape."

"Yes, father."

Wang Xi, Su Wentian, Xu Ying and other generals were helpless, and no one could do anything.

At this moment, a messenger suddenly came from afar, and said in a panic, "Your Majesty, it's not good...the demons are attacking the city again."

"Again."

Min Yulin raised his sword eyebrows, and said: "The generals obey the order, defend against the enemy, and defend Winter Frost City for me even if you die."

"yes."

Lin Muyu turned around with his saber in his hand and left the City Lord's Mansion. Outside, Qin Yan and Shen Han were waiting with more than 200 soldiers from the Temple Battalion. After days of hard fighting, there were only so many people left.

"Brother, the demons are attacking the city."

"I know, go up the city wall with me, and be sure to defend it."

"Um."

A group of people rode away, and the smoke and dust billowed straight to the north wall of Dongshuang City, which was also the place that received the most attacks. When Lin Muyu stepped onto the wall with the Dragon Spirit Sword, the demon army was densely packed in the distance. A demon, but in the Yangwei Army, everyone calls it a "cockroach". It is very difficult to deal with, its body is invulnerable, and its attack power is terrifying.

The nearest armored demon ran all the way with a blunt long knife while hissing. Its scarlet eyes looked excitedly at the humans on the city. Slashing the city bricks with a long knife, even Lin Muyu and others felt the shaking from the ground. These armored demons are really desperate species.

"Bring my bow." Lin Muyu ordered.

A soldier of the Temple Battalion handed over the precious carved bow. Lin Muyu raised his hand and pulled out an ordinary steel arrow, piercing his arms, pulling this hard bow into a full moon, and the power of stars visible to the naked eye poured into the arrow. Among the arrows, due to the short distance, Lin Muyu's archery skills were also much more accurate. With a "whoosh" sound, the arrow directly penetrated into the armored demon's brain.

"Woo woo woo..."

The armored demon took several steps back with its head in its arms, fell to the ground and writhed crazily, but its brain was damaged, it would definitely not survive, and death was only a matter of time.

"The chief deacon is very powerful." Shen Han couldn't help but admired, but he didn't admire Lin Muyu's accurate arrow technique, because Lin Muyu's hit rate couldn't even reach 30% from a hundred meters away, but it was almost 100% within 50 meters. Hit rate, when the armor demon is about to attack the city, Lin Muyu's strength and accuracy will naturally come in handy.

Arrows fell from the city like rain, swishing and falling among the armored monsters on the ground, the sound of "clinking" was endless, and the white diamond arrows were limited, so they could only be used by those in the temple camp who were very good at archery. Ordinary arrows can only kill the armored demon unless it is shot into its eyes or mouth. This is also the biggest weakness of the armored demon.

But how could the armored demon moving at high speed be shot so easily, but the imperial army's arrow consumption was very serious, and the number of arrows in the city was decreasing day by day.

Seeing the densely packed armored demons swarming under the city, one by one charged desperately, and some even spread their wings behind them and leaped to nearly twenty meters, looking at the humans in the city with a ferocious expression.

"This group of beasts." Qin Yan shouted coldly, pulled the arrow away, and an armored demon in the distance immediately fell to the ground.

Shen Han said with a cold face, "They're hungry..."

"What did you say?" Lin Muyu asked.

Shen Han said: "These armored demons eat human corpses. Almost all of our fallen soldiers were eaten. The armored demons seem to eat a lot. At this moment, they are hungry again..."

A burst of anger rose in his chest, Lin Muyu said viciously: "Continue to defend against the enemy, let them be hungry enough."
