"Your Highness declares that all people will enter the city immediately.
The city gates will be closed after sunset.
Without His Highness's order, the city gates will never be opened until the crisis is resolved."
Zhang Wei stood on the city wall holding a long sword, shouting loudly at the people below the city.
Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, and Chu Huaimian stood aside, with endless helplessness written on their faces.
"As a general of the empire, it is really a shame to be unable to hold on."
Feng Jixing clenched his fists, his face full of anger.
Chu Huaimian said: "The enemy is strong and we are weak.
There is no way around it.
We just don't know when Qihai City and Muyu City will be willing to send troops.
As long as they send troops, we should cooperate inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to defeat the so-called volunteers."
Feng Jixing looked at Lin Muyu and asked: "Ayu, do you want to summon your Longdan Battalion to Lanyan City?"
"No need."
Lin Muyu shook his head and said: "I have sent people to report the news to Gentian Camp, asking them to hold on like us.
Longyan Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Even a million troops cannot attack it in a short period of time.
Leave Gentian Camp behind Longyan Mountain can be used as a surprise force, and if necessary, the Gendan Battalion can also cooperate with us inside and outside. " Feng Jixing clapped his hands and chuckled: "That's good.
I have seen Ayu's Gentian Battalion.
Its combat power is very terrifying, and its equipment is the best among the imperial army.
To be honest, if the volunteers are lower than If 150,000 people come to besiege the city, we can open the city gates and go out to fight, and the chance of winning is more than 70%. " "What if it exceeds 200,000?"
Chu Huaimian asked with a smile.
Feng Jixing's expression darkened: "Then we can only hold on and not get out.
The disparity in strength is too great.
Leaving the city is just a matter of death.
What's more, the opponent has a strong man in the divine realm and nearly ten strong men in the holy realm."
Lin Muyu stretched out her hand to sweep away the dust on the battlements.
Everything she touched was cold.
She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
She said, "I don't know what your Majesty's situation is like in Fairy Lake.
There is no news at all.
I took him with me."
There are so many feather letters, can't even one be sent back?"
Feng Jixing frowned: "I hope your majesty can turn disaster into good fortune."
But if a disaster turns into a disaster, how can we resolve it if it is a serious disaster?
Late at night, Chu Huaimian rode into the darkness of Tongtian Street.
Soon after, he stopped in front of Shenhou Mansion.
After turning over and dismounting, he looked at the lonely iron door, hesitated for a moment, and walked forward gently.
One buckle.
"Who is it?"
the guard's voice came from inside.
"Chu Huaimian, commander of the Flying Cavalry Battalion, pays homage to Miss Zengxiang."
The guard immediately sneered and said: "It turns out to be the famous General Chu Huaimian.
Didn't you say you won't see my lady again?"
"I don't see you.
I just want Miss to talk to Mr.

Chu through the door."
"Hmph, wait a moment."
"Thank you."
Not long after, Zeng Xiang's soft voice came from the other side of the iron gate: "Master Chu, I don't know what's going on with your late night visit."
Chu Huaimian cupped his fists and said: "Miss, Cangnan Province and Dixing Province have fallen one after another.
Lanyan City is isolated and helpless.
Miss Zengxiang is the daughter of the Shenhou, and Ji Yao and Lin Yu are both the Shenhou Zengyi.
I believe that all the former generals will not embarrass the young lady and ask the young lady to leave the city immediately and go to Tianshu Province to look for Shenhou for safety. " Zeng Xiang smiled: "Master Chu, Zeng Xiang has his own sense of proportion.
Thank you for your concern.
I can make my own decision whether to go or stay."
Chu Huaimian was anxious and gritted his teeth and said: "Xiangxiang, you have to leave now.
The Lingnan army will come to the city at any time.
If you don't leave now, I'm afraid there will be no chance."
"Huaimian" Zengxiang called softly and said: "Didn't you say that you and Xiangxiang would face each other across the rivers and lakes?
If Xiangxiang leaves here, we will no longer be able to see each other.
You go, I won't leave, Jun If you die in battle, I will go with you."
Chu Huaimian's body trembled and his eyes were blood red: "Xiangxiang, you are crazy" There was no sound from the door anymore.
Chu Huaimian stood outside the door for more than an hour before leading his horse away dejectedly.
In the early morning of the next day, all 30,000 imperial troops and 17,000 flying cavalry battalions had entered Lanyan City and settled in the barracks around the four gates.
Lanyan City suddenly became lively, but all the people closed their doors.
With their homes closed, everyone lives their lives in fear.
They don't know what will greet them next moment, whether it is death or rebirth.
In the early morning, there was another heavy fog, shrouding Lanyan City in mist.
Wisps of dew slowly flowed down from Lin Muyu's armor.
He guarded the north gate wall of Lanyan City without closing his eyes all night, and his expression looked quite tired.
"Ayu, go get some sleep."
Feng Jixing frowned and said, "Look how haggard you are.
If His Highness sees you like this, I don't know how distressed you will be."
Lin Muyu smiled and shook his head: "If you can't sleep, can you, Brother Feng, fall asleep?"
"No."
Feng Jixing smiled sadly and said, "This may be our last battle."
"You still haven't received the feather letter from His Majesty Fairy Lake?"
"No, not one."
"Alas" Lin Muyu sighed, pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword, gently wiped the dew on the blade with a white cloth, and said, "Brother Feng, are you afraid?"
"Afraid" Feng Jixing smiled: "There is nothing to be afraid of.
I am an imperial soldier.
It is my honor to die fighting for the empire, and heroes emerge from troubled times.
Don't you think, Ayu, this is also an opportunity for us?"
"I don't think so."
Lin Muyu shook her head and said, "I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of losing everyone and everything I care about.
I'm afraid of losing Xiaoyin, Xiaoxi, and all of you.
If I can choose, I'd rather choose Being unknown, I don’t want to choose the glory made with blood.”
"Maybe you're right."
Feng continued to sit next to Lin Muyu, took out a wine gourd from beside him, drank a large gulp of strong wine, and said with a smile: "But this is life, the more you want to escape from all this war, the more you can't escape. , Ayu, you hate killing, but you have to face everything in front of you.

In this battle, your hands and mine will definitely be stained with blood, just wait and see."
At this moment, there was a sudden "pop" sound in the air, and a letter bird quickly landed on Feng Jixing's shoulder.
He hurriedly took out the letterbox, glanced at it, his face was full of astonishment, and said: "So fast The advance heavy cavalry of the volunteers are already less than 300 miles away from Lanyan City, and they will arrive at the city before sunset today."
"Oh shit" Lin Muyu sheathed her sword and said calmly: "Are they so eager to destroy Lanyan City?"
Feng Jixing looked indifferent and said: "Zhang Wei, pass the order, the whole city is on alert, and we will start preparing for the battle in the afternoon.
Also, have the Tianchong Legion from Qihai City returned?"
Zhang Wei nodded: "We'll be there in an hour."
"Well, that's good."
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the fog, and a commander-level general came to the city with a long sword.
It was Du Hai, the first warrior of the empire.
Behind him were densely packed shield-bearing soldiers, all of whom were infantrymen of the Tianchong Legion. , and the other is an endless stream of food and grass.
"Open the city gate."
Du Hai said loudly.
Feng Jixing stood on the city wall and said loudly: "General Du Hai, how many people did you bring back?"
Du Hai looked up and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Commander Feng.
The Tianchong Army is no longer what it used to be.
Nearly 10,000 people were lost at the Demon-Suppressing Pass, and another 50,000 were taken away by His Majesty.
Now there are only 30,000."
The infantry and archers have arrived.”
Feng Jixing nodded: "Well, thirty thousand is fine.
Come into the city.
The flying cavalry camp will guard the south gate, the imperial army will guard the north gate and the east gate, and the Tianchong army will guard the west gate.
What do you think, general?"
"Thank you very much.
I will lead the brothers to Ximen right away."
"Um" Du Hai is a cheerful person.
Although his military position is higher than that of Feng Jixing, he can defend according to Feng Jixing's orders.
He is considered a good general.
Moreover, the volunteers are coming fiercely, and there are many defections and surrenders in the empire.
General, Du Hai's ability to return to Lanyan City to assist in the defense at this time is enough to prove his loyalty.
Watching the Tianchong Army enter the city one after another, Lin Muyu slowly stood up, holding up the sword and saying: "Wei Qiu, how is the situation at the Eagle's Nest Camp?"
Wei Qiu cupped his fists and said, "All 724 brothers are on the north wall, ready to be dispatched by the commander at any time."
"That's good.
All personnel are equipped with war bows.
Once the volunteers come into range, just shoot them."
"Yes, I understand."
Near noon, the sun penetrated the clouds and dispersed the fog, and the Lingnan army was getting closer and closer.
More and more messenger birds are flying around in the sky, and each piece of news makes people feel more and more chilled in their hearts.
Lin Yu led an army of 100,000 people to leave the Dixing Province and entered the Lingbei Province.
He will arrive in the near future.
From the direction of Cangnan Province, Marshal Ji Yao of the Volunteer Allied Forces personally led a 250,000-strong army to swarm in.
With Long Qianlin as the vanguard, they successively captured 17 cities between Lanyan City and Wugu City, and were about to arrive at the city within three hours. .
Soldiers from Lingnan entering Lingbei were gradually discovered again near the Qinling Mountains.
There is no news from the direction of Fairy Lake.
Four generals, Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Huaimian, and Du Hai, were responsible for guarding the city.

Qin Lei led the Royal Forest Army to guard Zetian Palace, and General Ling Nantian supervised the formation.
The entire Lanyan City was on the verge of war.
At this moment, Tianshu Province, Fairy Lake.
The lake water has been dyed red with blood, and there are countless floating corpses on the lake.
Most of the corpses have begun to rot and are bloated, and are being eaten by fish.
The battle flags of the Tianchong Army and the Longquan Army are floating on the water.
It flows for hundreds of miles, and the entire Fairy Lake is completely silent.
The mud on the lakeside is covered with messy footprints.
A man sinks deep into the mud in the shallow water.
Water plants wrap around his red and swollen neck.
Across the water, you can still see his wide eyes filled with unwillingness and anger.
His palms It was in the shape of a claw, and its nails were broken.
It had been fighting before its death, but was unable to do so, so it was drowned alive.
It doesn’t matter how he was a self-centered person, how he was rebellious in prosperity, how he was ranked among the nine deities, and how he turned the world around.
After death, it is nothing more than a cold corpse
