Chapter 882 Prepare for a Decisive Battle!

Out of the city, nearly 40,000 people galloped across a barren plain.

...

In the air, with the sound of flapping wings, a war eagle knight wearing a golden armor descended from the sky and said, "Lord Qiyue Liuhuo, His Majesty ordered you to lead your subordinates to Hongyan County to garrison."

"Hongyan County?"

I raised my eyebrows and hurriedly raised my hand to summon a large map. I found that Hongyan County was just to the west of us. It was the next line of defense after Huoling County was conquered. The long river in the river is indeed worth defending, so he turned to Lin Xi and said, "Lin Xiaoxi, shall we go to Hongyan County?"

"You decide."

"Um!"

I nodded, and said in a deep voice in the guild channel: "Let's go, target, Hongyan County!"

Everyone speeded up one after another, and when I turned around and looked back, I saw flames shooting up into the sky from the direction of Huoling County, and the sound of flames stinging and exploding, the earth was buzzing and trembling, a majestic city, Just like this, it will soon be turned into ruins. The strange demon army is passing by, and no grass will grow. This is no joke.

"Are we just abandoning Huoling County?" Calorie asked.

"Um."

I turned around and rode Wu Xiezhi, and said: "Otherwise, are you going to die with the npc? It's meaningless for us to drop this level, and the flame thorn demon has already detoured to the back, and Huoling county has lost its guarding power." worth it."

Calorie put his forehead on his forehead and smiled: "It seems that it is my wife's benevolence."

"That's not true."

I shook my head: "Actually, I also want to stay and defend Huoling County, but the conditions do not allow it. There are too few NPC defenders in Huoling County, and there are few equipment, whether it is artillery or crossbows, ballistas, and arrow towers. And so on, they are far inferior to ordinary big counties, generally speaking, it would be a bit uneconomical for us to defend Huoling County to the death."

"Well, let's go and see Hongyan County!"

...

Around two o'clock in the morning.

A majestic and solemn city appeared in the field of vision. Hongyan County has arrived. The capital of a county has a long wall and a towering city. In addition to the npc army, there are also many players from small and medium guilds here.

In the distance, the war drums of "Dong Dong Dong" came from the depths of the jungle, and a row of monsters such as Molin Knights, Pioneer Knights, Pioneer Ghost Soldiers, etc. had already lined up at the edge of the forest. It looked very scary, densely packed, as if A black tide is about to submerge this famous city with a history of thousands of years.

"A deer! Look!"

Some players on the city are already pointing in our direction excitedly: "It's the people from Yilu who are coming!"

"Quickly open the city gate and welcome a deer into the city!"

This time it went very smoothly. Before I came to the city, the city gates facing Yilu had already opened one after another. There were even npc generals holding swords and leading a group of cavalry to meet them. The chests of the generals and a group of soldiers Wearing the emblem of the Flame God Legion on the armor, he walked forward with the blade in his hand, cupped his fists respectfully and said, "Master July Liuhuo, the last commander of the third corps of the Flame God Legion, Peng Yu, welcomes you!"

"Um!"

I nodded, and walked into the city side by side with him, asking, "General Peng, how many defenders are there in this Hongyan County?"

"this……"

He pursed his lips, frowned and said: "Actually, Hongyan County originally had 30,000 defenders. After all, it is a large county in the north. The prefect, who was afraid of death, took 20,000 elite soldiers out of the city to take refuge, leaving only 10,000 old and weak to defend the city, and the last general led his troops to garrison Hongyan County. , then there are a total of 60,000 defenders, plus an unknown number of adventurers, the strength of Hongyan County is only so much."

"knew."

Not long after, I boarded the city with Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan, Qing Deng, and others. After looking at the densely packed army of strange demons in the distant forest, I couldn't help but took a deep breath, feeling very uncertain, and said: "General Peng, you Do you think we can stand it?"

Peng Yu smiled wryly: "My lord, why bother to ask? If the Strange Demon Legion hadn't launched the self-detonation attack of Lao Shizi's flame stabbing demon, the general would have the confidence to defend Hongyan County for three days and three nights, but if they had dispatched the flame stabbing demon army, the general would have continued to defend it." I don’t even have the self-confidence for an hour, after all, Yanmen Pass was breached precisely because of those damn flames stabbing demons.”

I was silent, and he was right.

...

"What should I do?" Lin Xi asked.

"no way."

I frowned: "We are almost at the point of no return, and now defending Hongyan County is the first goal, um... Hongyan County's city defense and heavy artillery are much more powerful than Huoling County, it is worth defending, I think We can organize melee heavy equipment players to go down the city wall to touch the flame thorn demon, and see if the player can beat the flame thorn demon when they fall to the ground, what do you think, Lin Xi?"

She raised her eyebrows: "I've wanted to fight for a long time!"

Not long after, a large number of Yilu reloaded players went down the city wall, and almost all of them went down after ten minutes. People from other small and medium guilds were also infected, sending reloaded players down the city wall one by one to fight against the city wall. Three arrays have been established under the city wall, and the total number of reloaded players leaving the city is close to 100,000.

It's great that there are so many people in the national service.

At this moment, suddenly a flying boat beeped over the city, and a scribe held a golden scroll in his hand and said, "Lord July Liuhuo, Your Majesty has summoned you to discuss matters in Fenglai City, the provincial capital of Beiliang Province. Let me do it!"

He ordered the flying boat to be lowered a little, and I explained to Lin Xi, my legs sank, and I pulled out with all my strength, with a sound of "Peng", accompanied by wisps of airflow, it soared into the sky, leaping as high as more than ten meters, just holding my hands The dagger landed firmly in the flying boat, and said: "Let's go."

"yes!"

The furnaces on both sides of the warship were buzzing and trembling, and the finger-sized spirit stones were rapidly sublimated into energy. Suddenly, the spaceship seemed to be propelled by a huge force, and rushed into the clouds with a "swish", even at a speed of Faster than my Frost Flying Peng, it reached the sky above Fenglai City in less than ten minutes. The defense formation seemed to reveal a corner of the curtain, and the flying boat rushed in, and landed in Fenglai City soon after. On the palace square.

...

In the distance, there are many warriors in the hall. This was originally the palace of the Kingdom of Gold, and the hall is also the court hall of Jin Tairan, the lord of the Kingdom of Gold, but now it belongs to the human race. When I stepped into the hall, Almost all the generals who caught the eye were generals from all over the Xuanyuan Empire, and there were at least a few civil servants.

"July Fire is here too."

Xuanyuanying took on his armor, stood up and said, "Let's discuss it, now that Yanmen Pass has been lost, Huoling County, Hongyan County, Fengqi County and many other counties are being attacked by strange demon legions, and the territory of the empire is under attack. I have been embezzled step by step, what should I do next?"

"Step by step, stick to the deep ditch and barriers!"

Among the crowd, the leader of the parliamentary army, a middle-aged man named "Qingyuantu" clad in blue armor clasped his fists and said, "As long as we implement the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness and defending every city, the strange demon army will definitely run out of supplies and will eventually have to Withdraw from Beiliang Province!"

"Yeah?"

Mu Tiancheng dressed in military uniform, paced back and forth in front of the sand table, and said, "Commander Qing, I'm afraid it's not inevitable, right? I have dealt with the Strange Demon Legion for many years, and I have a good understanding of the habits of evil spirits. The flesh and soul of the human race are food, and the flames stab the demons. As long as they devour the corpse, they can gain a large amount of death power and maintain their physical fitness and strength for several days or even half a month. These knights are death knights, whether it is devouring corpses or refining souls, they can be filled with strength!"

He gently pressed his palm on the edge of the sand table, looked at the cities, and said: "In our cities, there are not only defenders, but also many civilians who have just moved. These are their food, that is to say, aliens Every time the magic army captures a city, they get a huge grain and grass warehouse, which can be replenished on the spot. Let me ask, how can we win when we fight passively, how can we explain to the murdered people in Beiliang Province, and how can we tell the world what to do? Confession?"

Xuanyuan Ying nodded slightly, but did not speak.

The leader of the Yanshen Legion, Shan Haigong Nangong also stepped forward with his sword hilt in his hand, and said: "In the battle of Yanmen Pass, our Yanshen Legion has lost nearly 80,000 soldiers and horses, and we have retreated after repeated battles. Now, the Flame God Legion can really Only half of the troops have been mobilized, everyone has witnessed the strength of Molin Knight, and many soldiers are scared to death, at this time... what can we do except stand firm and wait for change?"

Feng Buwen stood up and smiled, and said, "Mr. Fu Yu, what suggestion do you have?"

"decisive battle!"

Mu Tiancheng clenched his iron fist, his brows furrowed tightly, and said: "Only by fighting this battle and destroying the main force of the Indestructible Legion and the Pioneering Legion within the territory of Beiliang Province, can it be possible to save Beiliang Province, otherwise, I'm afraid that the strange demon army will soon use our city as a lair, build a large cemetery, spread the plague, and hatch ghost soldiers, and by then, we who have been dragged into the war will have to be slaughtered."

Xuanyuan Ying frowned and said, "What do you think of the Holy Palace? Sir Sikong Hai, what do you think?"

The head of the Knights Templar, the legendary Knight of Light, Sikong Hai put on his armor, stood up from his chair, walked to the edge of the sand table, looked at the various marks on the sand table, and said, "Although the Knights Templar fought at Yanmen Pass There were heavy losses, but I believe that the children have not lost their fighting spirit. On the contrary, my Templars are all eager for a revenge. Therefore, I agree with Fu Yugong's plan, choose a battlefield, and fight against the Strange Demon Legion Decisive battle! Taking advantage of the indestructibles and pioneers who have not gained a firm foothold in Beiliang Province, we will fight them decisively!"

"knew."

Xuanyuanying stood on the spot, with an unshakable and majestic aura surging from his body, looking at the generals with a pair of eyes, and said: "Immediately send my handwriting to Longyu, and ask for the help of Lord Yunyue and the woodland elves. , The Northern Wilderness Army, Yunxi Army, and Yinping Army all mobilized to Fenglai City overnight, shrinking the defense line, and dispatched most of the main force to Fenglai City, preparing for a decisive battle with the Strange Demon Army!"
