Homecoming through online games

=====================

In the twilight, the gray-black dilapidated city stands silently under the setting sun.On the undulating reddish-brown land outside the city, the corpses of humans and monsters were scattered all over.Downwind of the city, the pile of unburned corpses still billowed with thick smoke.

Not long ago, this city was completely "cleaned up" by the army of the dynasty, and the walking corpses and monsters in it had been wiped out.Some of the buildings that are still intact have been used, and temporary tents have also been set up.This place will be used as a transit point to supply food and grass for the dynastic army's upcoming counterattack.

The commander-in-chief of this army—Anshun Wang Jianlin was in one of the military tents, staring at the map, thinking about the military reports from various places in his mind, and analyzing the current situation.

The monsters who have stayed in the Central Plains for a long time and left the southeast wasteland for a long time have recently begun to become weak, gradually showing a downward trend in combat effectiveness.And this is the opportunity that the dynasty army, which has been dormant for a long time, has been waiting for.He contacted the troops from all over the place, and in one go, the good news of defeating the demon came from all over the place.However, the Central Plains had already fallen for some time after all, and the harsh environment full of scars and demonic energy, as well as the large group of walking corpses induced by the demonic energy, brought many obstacles to the army's counterattack.At the moment, most of the monster army has fled to the southern part of the Central Plains, with the big river as the boundary, and according to the current information in the north of the river, there is no large army of monsters that can threaten the royal city.But the small army of monsters scattered everywhere is still a threat that cannot be ignored.Now it is time to fight steadily, gradually encroach on and clear the rear, and then integrate forces after the northern supply line is stabilized, and advance southward in one fell swoop.

As far as the situation is concerned, in the army battle, there are disciples of the Beidou camp to assist in planning.In terms of logistics, the master of the Baicao Hall and his disciples who met on the way to chase the monsters were also invited to join the army and helped the army a lot.The soldiers walked all the way, and when they saw the tragic situation in their homeland, they all fought bravely and fought hard.Although there is still a new "Natural Selection Sect" in trouble, the situation in Jiangbei has tended to improve.However……

Jian Lin's eyes fell on an isolated city south of the curve representing the great river on the map.Unpredictable.

Changyi City.

When the foundation in the north is not stable, it is not appropriate to rashly extend the front and go deep into the hinterland and send troops to the south.

Jian Lin took out a battle report that he had read countless times from his bosom, but did not open it, but just stroked the broken cover, his eyes still fixed on the map, and let out a deep breath.

This battle report was brought by a scarred goshawk.

Jian Lin, who has been guarding Changning Pass for many years, naturally knows that the goshawk is a bird that the disciples of Yinyu Tower often use.This messenger seemed to have gone through extremely difficult and dangerous battles before flying to the camp. When it arrived, half of its body was bloodied, its feathers were incomplete, and it was seriously injured. It almost fell into the camp.Even so, he still spread his wings, glaring and fierce, and refused to let anyone approach him.Only when he saw him, he seemed to recognize that he was the chief general in the army, and settled down.He lowered his head and pecked out the rolled-up battle report from under his wings, his golden pupils stared at him. After picking it up, he seemed to finally feel relieved, let out a low cry, turned his head to one side and closed his eyes. Long gone.The bird, which is nearly five feet long with its wings spread out, is light and fluttering when buried in the soil, and the skin is tightly attached to the bone.

The battle report is the latest news from Changyi City. The writer is Changyi City's highest-ranking general, Jian Xu, the left general of the Zhennan Army—his son.

The battle report described in a calm and objective tone the army in Changyi City at this time, the various campaigns and action decisions since the demon invasion, as well as the observed intelligence and demon movements of the demon army.

At the end of the letter, it was written: "The army of monsters has returned, numbering more than ten thousand. There are giant beasts mixed among them, and the slaves are chaotic, suspected to be controlled by monsters. The Zhennan army will stick to Changyi until the day when our dynasty army recovers the rivers and mountains. Township Congratulations, the brief sequence of the left general of the Southern Army"

In the battle report, the situation recorded in the Israeli army indicated the number of remaining troops in the city and the supply situation such as food and grass.

Judging from the numbers, it is even considered a good data - only in writing, just in terms of a city defense battle, it is enough to last for more than a month.

——But that was Changyi City.It's not a frontline city when the whole front line is at war, but an isolated city in the hinterland that has been occupied by monsters for several months, with no reinforcements before and enemy troops behind.Everyone in the court, including himself, thought that Changyi City had fallen.

In the southern part of the Central Plains surrounded by monsters, there is another city resisting!Those who are still fighting in that city are the Zhennan Army who were originally stationed at Changning Pass, and later moved to the Central Plains. They thought they had been completely wiped out in the southern region!

——And at least at that time, the only son he thought he had lost was still alive.

However, now is not the time to march south.He is the commander-in-chief of the entire army, and what he holds is the last power that human beings can fight back against demons.All his orders and actions cannot be based on his personal wishes, but for the ultimate victory of mankind.

All for victory.

Changyi City is now like fresh bait to lure animals in a trap, and food to lure birds in a bird cage. It seems to be coveted. Once you touch it, you will fall into the cage and never return.Unless the outstretched hand is strong enough and powerful enough to destroy the trap birdcage, even so, it will be bitten to death by the eye-catching trap birdcage.The loss outweighs the gain.

Therefore, the army cannot be dispatched now.

Before the monsters crossed the river, when the court and the central government discussed for the first time whether to send troops to rescue Changyi City, he objected.And this is the second time he has opposed sending troops to the south for rescue.

Even if you don't know the situation in the northern part of the Central Plains, and you are familiar with the brief preface of military books, you should have anticipated the concerns of the dynasty and the situation facing Changyi City.

That's why in the battle report, there was no mention of reinforcements, and only said "wait for the day when our dynasty's army recovers the rivers and mountains."

However, when the army of monsters poured into the southern part of the Central Plains, when the defeated army was full of hatred and anger towards human beings, how many days can that miraculous city hold on?What will happen to those waiting for that city?

Jian Lin clenched her fists.

His son already had the will to serve the country with his own body, but he, for the second time, gave up on his son.

The voice of the messenger outside the army tent sounded: "General, urgent battle report!"

"Come in." Jian Lin turned around and said, from his voice to his demeanor, he was always calm and calm.

He put away the battle report in his hand, and immediately threw himself into the busy schedule.

On the map hanging on the side, a city was heavily circled by a brush dipped in thick ink.

That was the only thing the general could do for his son. After referring to the situation on the riverside, he decided to take back the first stronghold in the dynasty's counterattack to the south one day in the future.

Shengyang City.

At the same time, outside the temporary camp of an army, which was closer to the front line than Jian Lin's city, Ye Mu saw Ye Nuan again after a few days.

The beautiful girl who was dressed in a military uniform and still carried the breath of war that had not faded, her eyes lit up the moment she saw Ye Mu.Quickly rolled up the whip in his hand, walked towards Ye Mu quickly, gave a big hug without hesitation, and called out with a bit of coquettishness: "Daddy, you are here."

The touch of the girl's warm and fragrant nephrite and the slender arms around her body made Ye Mu, who had never experienced this kind of experience, a little embarrassed.In addition, seeing that Ye Nuan is safe and sound is still reassuring.But he still noticed the lingering anger on Ye Nuan's face a moment ago.After touching the girl's head, Ye Mu asked, "What happened?"

Ye Nuan let go of the hug, looked at Ye Mu with dark eyes, and said, "Daddy, are you going south? Be careful of human beings, and don't take strangers lightly." A girl who is good at divination doesn't seem to have Ye Mu opening her mouth. She already knew the destination of his trip, she said, "We chased the monster all the way, and we encountered many refugees on the way. We usually escorted them to a nearby city to settle temporarily. But not long ago, there was a team responsible for escorting refugees. The team lost contact, and the omen is a big omen. I thought we had encountered a disintegrated army of demons, but we rushed over to find that they were eaten by people. . . . They were eaten by 'people'."

Ye Nuan calmly said such a creepy thing: "Those refugees who assassinated a small group of soldiers failed to go far, and I brought them all back. After interrogation, I found out that such things are not uncommon now. Those people claim to be some kind of "Natural Selection", they are doing cannibalism openly, and they say that this way they can not be harmed by monsters... It makes sense, the stench of eating people on their bodies is almost similar to They are demons, and with the demonic energy that is flooding the Central Plains, these people may not necessarily produce any changes in the future. This so-called "Natural Selection Cult" has spread widely, and has formed a loose organization. There are quite a few members, including men, women, old and young, and there are endless tricks to deceive you. Daddy, you must be careful."

Ye Mu choked slightly.Being used to all kinds of killing and fighting, and having seen all kinds of cruel things, it doesn't mean that he can deal with such things calmly.After all, in his common sense, monsters can still be regarded as alien creatures, and any habits they have can be attributed to the nature of the race, while the cannibal behavior of humans clearly made him realize the absurdity and horror of the troubled world.What's more, according to Ye Nuan, this kind of thing has formed an organization, which is even more cruel.

and.He looked at the slim girl and sighed in his heart.

Such a girl, even if she is one of the powerful six spirits, is still a girl who has just grown up emotionally.It is necessary to face such a chaotic world, such frantic humans and demons, trapped in tricks, and experience fighting.

If possible, he would do his best to let Ye Nuan live a peaceful and happy life without facing all kinds of hardships.But in the current world, one can live in peace without avoiding battles. Some things always need to be done by someone.Without needing to say it, he could tell that Ye Nuan would never escape from all of this.She has her own responsibility and persistence.

So Ye Mu didn't say anything after all.He responded to Ye Nuan's exhortation, saying that he would be careful.I also asked about Ye Nuan's current identity and experience in the army, and learned that what she did when she became an adult was similar to Ye Ming. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his party arrived in the capital—by the way, I learned that Ye Nuan hadn’t mentioned a word before. On the way, I encountered the priest’s ambush and slaughtered, and I made another account for the priest in my heart—and then He successfully joined the army and got a moderate position in the army. After experiencing this series of fights, he initially established a good prestige.

Ye Mu asked her about the situation of the current battle between the Chao Dynasty army and the monsters, and only then did he know that the situation in Jiangbei was very good. The army she was in chased away the most powerful group of monsters, and they had already fled back to the south of the river. It is to consolidate the results of the battle and regain the riverside defense line.This also meant that to know Jiang Wang's detailed movements, he had to go south to find a demon general with enough status to know about it.

At the same time, he remembered what Ye Nuan said just now that he was going south.He asked the question out of his mouth.

He didn't know right away if he should regret the move.

"Daddy, Red Luan is moving, your marriage is in the south, right?" Ye Nuan's delicate face remained calm as always, and she pointed to the direction of the guide with her delicate fingers, "Is the mother you are looking for for Nuan Nuan good-natured? When the opportunity arises, let him meet Nuannuan. I'm looking forward to it." The girl with black hair and dark eyes, standing there, smiled sweetly like a freehand landscape painting.

"..." For a moment, Ye Mu was speechless.

Although it was still a bit embarrassing, Ye Mu didn't forget the business.Before saying goodbye, he jingled out of the package a full set of shiny Beidou battalion armor suits, as well as a long whip - a gift that he didn't have time to give when we met last time.

This is the best armor and weapon he can make. The original materials are still insufficient. Fortunately, the missing metals can also be found in this world, but it took some prestige to convert them into raw materials for forging.

"I don't know how these compare to your original armor and weapons. If it's not enough, you can keep it as a spare." He asked Ye Ming earlier. Although equipment such as weapons and armor can be used by others, it's a pity that recovery products such as milk And all kinds of consumables are only effective for his own use, and even the six spirits cannot integrate the power of the law.As for the impact of the skeleton he had replaced rashly on Jiang Wang... It can only be said that the ignorant and fearless did not cause any irreversible consequences due to luck.

Looking at the girl who was holding a pile of armor, almost half of her face was blocked, Ye Mu paused and patted her heart lightly.

"Pay attention to safety, be careful in everything." Repeated many times, he said this tirelessly.

"Well, daddy should be careful too." Ye Nuan said, suddenly stood on tiptoe and came over.

On the side of the face, a kiss as light as fluffy feathers.

"In the name of Duize, everything will be safe."
