The Alchemist God

boom.

When the Longdan Camp entered the city, the north gate of Huoyue City had already been torn apart. The gate had already been damaged when the armored demon broke into the city a few months ago. Now it was hit by the heavy shield of the soldiers of the Longdan Camp, and it was also expected to be fragmented It's over.

Stepping on the broken gate with four hooves on the snow, Lin Muyu took the reins and looked at the gray marks in the city. The demons must have set fire to the city when they entered the city. The granaries, temples, blacksmiths and other facilities in Huoyue City All reduced to ruins.

...

Wei Chou stared at everything around him, frowned and said: Commander, this is a complete ruin, there is no way to defend it, we shouldn't waste time here.

I know.

Lin Muyu nodded and said: The demons may make a comeback at any time, so the people here must be transferred quickly, send people to gather all the people in Huoyue City, leave the city from the north gate, and send a hundred people to escort them over. Qin Ling, go live in Cuckoo City.

yes.

Wei Chou frowned, and asked again: My lord, will the city lord of Cuckoo City accept these people? After all, these people used to be the citizens of Yihe Kingdom, and they are people who are hated by our empire. I am worried... the city lord will kill them. Get rid of these people.

It's okay, I'll write a letter.

yes.

...

At dusk, nearly 20,000 hungry craftsmen were recruited. Just as the Orion said, this group of people had their own skills, some were stonemasons, some carpenters, and some were bow makers. Civil servants recruited by the army, not to mention that the empire is building steel walls, and the demand for blacksmiths and masons is very high. At this moment, these people are even more precious than gold.

Scrub...

Lin Muyu brushed away a burnt blacksmith's table, put the cloth on it, then took the pen and ink from Wei Chou, and carefully wrote a letter to the Lord of Cuckoo City: Lord Wang Ju, these people are all Every one of the refugees in Huoyue City has some skills, so I decided to transfer them to Cuckoo City and become citizens of the empire. I hope you can make arrangements so that they don’t hurt them,,, Lin Muyu

After finishing writing, he took out the general seal from the Qiankun bag, and covered it with the blood-red ink pad Qin Yan was holding.

Afterwards, he rushed into the granary and slaughtered several armored demons guarding the food, and distributed the food to the civilians.

Until late at night, a hundred Gendan Battalion cavalry slowly escorted 20,000 civilians out of the city, and the valuables in Huoyue City were almost emptied, and these civilians left in large carts with countless objects , food, gold coins, ironware, etc.

On the city wall, Lin Muyu watched the group of refugees leave. The cold wind at night blew on his face like a knife cut him. He gently pressed the city wall and opened the marching map again. With the help of the starlight, he fumbled for the place on the map. Cities after cities, finally, his finger pressed lightly on a city marker on the map and did not leave.

Standing by the side, Wei Chou said understandingly: Xingjue City, a very prosperous city, originally had a population of more than 200,000, but now there should not be many left. Commander, you want to attack Xingjuecheng.

Um.

Lin Muyu looked at him with clear eyes, and said with a smile: Send someone to investigate near Xingjue City, and see how many armored demons are guarding Xingjue City, it should not be many.

Wei Chou nodded: The armored demon army almost went to the direction of Bailing City to fight Long Qianlin. Naturally, there will not be too many defenders here, but my lord... Xingjue City is far away from the Sunset City guarded by Ding Xi. It's too close, the riding distance from the steel wall to Xingjue City is no more than two hours. Even infantry can get there in half a day. If we attack Xingjue City, we may have to face the Lingnan Yihe Kingdom at any time. the army.

I've made up my mind, so there's no need to say more.

Lin Muyu breathed a sigh of relief, and said: Let everyone eat and sleep well tonight, and set off to attack Xingjue City tomorrow morning, still march lightly, bring three days of dry food, and all the supply troops will withdraw to Mosong Pass.

We don't want supplies anymore. Wei Chou was stunned.

It doesn't matter, as long as Xingjue City is captured within three days, there will be plenty of food. If we can't capture it, we will go back to the empire's territory. It is too dangerous here.

yes.

That night, nearly 5,000 troops from the Longdan Camp slaughtered hundreds of livestock found in the city, boiled pots of broth for the soldiers to have a delicious meal, and fed the horses enough fodder. There was a lot of snoring, and the only sound was the hooves of the scouting troops in the distance. This night was too quiet, so quiet that it made people feel a little uneasy.

On the side of the Chinese military tent, Lin Muyu did not sleep, but lay on the huge millstone beside him, looking up at the starlight, his body stretched naturally, absorbing the power of the stars in the starlight, and at the same time following the formulas of the star formula to run the battle energy in his body again and again, but always Unable to break through that layer of confinement, and still unable to comprehend the power of the fourth heaven of the Star Art.

In the late autumn night, a layer of frost fell, just like that on Lin Muyu's face, but it didn't melt, and the layer of star power on his face exuded a beautiful luster, refracted from under the frost, it was extraordinarily beautiful .

...

In the early morning, Lin Muyu woke up amidst the noise of horseshoes and shouting. Lin Muyu opened his eyes leisurely. The person who cursed was Fengxi. Food wasted in vain.

Brother, it's time to eat.

Qin Yan sent noodles and broth, and there was a large piece of meat bone in the soup bowl, which looked like beef, and it was full of aroma.

Lin Muyu accepted it honestly, he was really hungry after practicing all night, he drank soup and ate meat, while Qin Yan gently raised his hand to help Lin Muyu pat off the frost on his shoulders, breathing hot air and laughing: Brother, you haven't rested in the tent all night.

Well, the cultivation of Star Jue needs to absorb the source of power from the starry sky.

It's really a strange martial art, but it's also very strong. Qin Yan chuckled.

Lin Muyu also smiled, and continued to bite the big cake. Qin Yan was more like a younger brother to him, and after Qin Lei died, Qin Yan really regarded Lin Muyu as an older brother, otherwise he would not be a big brother. shouted.

It's not bad to have such a little prince brother who is strong and loyal.

After eating a large bowl of meat, Lin Muyu clapped his palms and said, Clean up and prepare to continue marching.

yes.

Qin Yan washed the soup bowl and handed it to the soldiers of the Linghuo Division, then brought Taxue over, and said with a smile: Brother, we will arrive at Xingjue City at about dusk today. Siege the city?

Um.

Lin Muyu nodded and said: Take down Xingjue City before the demon army reacts, and then take the good things from Xingjue City back to Lingbei. Instead of leaving it to the demons, it is better to leave it to the empire.

Ha, I thought so too.

Set off.

yes.

The army marched mightily, the flag of the Ziyinhua Empire fluttered in the wind, and the soldiers of the Longdan Battalion were refreshed one by one. On the dead land, this army galloped away, and it seemed to bring a glimmer of life to this slaughtered land.

...

In Sunset City, behind the steel parapet, the camps of the Yihe Kingdom were connected together. People shouted and neighed, and it was very lively. Between the criss-crossing camps, a column of iron cavalry quickly entered the large tent of the Chinese army. Walking in the forefront was a A high-ranking general with two stars on his shoulders and the rank of Commander-in-Chief. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a beard on his face. There is a chilling hostility in his eyes.

Holding the hilt of the sword at his waist, he stepped into the big tent under the protection of the guards. In front of him was Ding Xi holding a bowl of marching broth.

The last general, Xiong Chao, see Ding Shuai. He said loudly.

Ding Xi raised his head, smiled slightly, stood up and said, Why did General Xiong come to the former army camp? Aren't you accompanying Marshal Lu Zhao in Sunset City?

Xiong Chao raised his eyebrows thickly, and said: The sunset city is full of birds and swallows. I, Xiong Chao, am a rough man and I can't bear this, so Marshal Lu Zhao ordered me to lead 3,000 cavalry out of the steel parapet to test the demons. family situation.

Out of the steel wall.

Ding Xi frowned and said: Marshal Lu Zhao should also understand the danger in the north of the steel wall. As long as the demons dispatch a 1,000-man army, I am afraid that General Xiong's 3,000 cavalry will not be able to survive.

Xiong Chao smiled: Shuai Ding is too worried. Even though the armored demons of the demon clan are powerful, they are still stupid after all. As long as we use rockets to shoot them, how can the armored demons do nothing to get us, and we just got the book of feathers? , Marshal Long Qianlin's Dragon Cavalry Army has already used the iron chain chain formation to fight the main force of Lei Chong's Armored Demon Legion outside the city. If you don't attack, I'm afraid you will waste a great opportunity.

Ding Xi squinted his eyes: General Xiong really insists on going to war.

Yes, I have made up my mind.

Xiong Chao took out a command arrow and said, This is the command arrow issued by Marshal Lu Zhao to the last general. I hope Marshal Ding can let it go.

It seems... the general is eager to make contributions. Ding Xi smiled slightly, and said, But after you leave the steel wall, there is nothing to protect you, and... there are not only demons in the north of the wall, but also people from the empire. The army, Lin Muyu's Longdan battalion is said to have entered Lingnan, you have to be careful, once you encounter the Longdan battalion, don't fight, immediately withdraw to the steel wall.

Imperial Army.

Xiong Chao put his hand on the hilt of his sword, his face full of disdain: Ding Shuai hasn't fought for too long, he has lost the spirit of the commander of the first army, why should Lin Muyu and Long Danying be afraid? Did Ding Shuai forget that Lan During the Battle of Yancheng, the Laoshizi Longdan Camp and the Yulin Army were all killed by our army in Sunset City and fled in embarrassment. If Lin Muyu was smart, he would naturally avoid me. If I met him, Ding Shuai would wait for the end. Come back with Lin Muyu's head to receive the reward.

A chill flashed across Ding Xi's eyes, and he said, General Xiong, don't underestimate the enemy.

Don't worry, Ding Shuai just needs to rest assured.

Well, come here, open the door and let General Xiong's people go out.
