The Alchemist God

In the south of the Five Ridges, the steel retaining wall stands like a giant in the autumn wind. In the distance, red maples are like fire, and the maple leaves flutter in the wind, even tens of meters high.

On the protective wall, Qin Yi, the governor of the Yihe Kingdom, was wearing a dragon robe, squinting his eyes at the endlessly flying maple leaves, and said, Have you already decided, Commander Long?

yes.

On the side, Long Qianlin, dressed in the military uniform of a marshal, pointed to the steel wall and said, Skillful craftsmen from the south of the Five Ridges cast these armored chariots, each of which weighs several thousand catties, and ten people hid in them to drive them. Iron armored chariots are surrounded by steel thorns, As long as it is on flat ground, the Armored Demon is absolutely unable to contend with us.

How many such armored vehicles are there?

Too much iron is needed, so there are only three hundred for the time being, but there will be more and more. Finally, the general plans to counterattack in three days. He will use cavalry to attract the main force of the demons for a decisive battle, and then use armored chariots to defend against the enemy. All the demons in the country are killed, and the territory of the Yihe Kingdom in the north of the steel wall is regained, please give the order.

Well. Qin Yi nodded and said: Since I have handed over the military power of the Yihe Kingdom to Long Shuai, then the matter of marching and fighting is up to you alone, but the attack will start in three days, will it A little too rushed.

Long Qianlin clasped his fists and said respectfully: Da Du Tong, the first army of the Demon Race fought against the Empire in the Cangnan Province, and Feng Jixing beheaded 20,000 people in the Qiankun Battle Formation, and Lin Muyu drowned 60,000 people in the Daojiang River. Demons, the first demon army is now completely lost, and Lei Chong also led the main force of the second army back to the territory of Lingdong province. At this time, the number of demon troops left in the territory of Yihe country does not exceed 20,000 , If we don’t take advantage of the situation to counterattack at this time, I’m afraid the chance of fighting will be fleeting.”

I see.

Qin Yi smiled slightly and said, Baizuanjian...how is your research going?

Long Qianlin frowned, and said: It is said that most of the white diamond arrowheads in Yihe Kingdom were tempered by Lin Muyu in a mysterious way. The arrowheads are so sharp that they can penetrate battle armor. Diamond arrowheads, but craftsmen in Lingnan have never been able to reach Lin Muyu's casting level, but... the white diamond arrowheads we cast using the fire refining method are not bad, they can penetrate the hard armor of steel armor and armored demons, and now we have more than There are 500,000 white diamond arrows, and the Lingnan Iron Mine is fertile, I believe it will not be a big problem to repel the demons with these arrows.

Okay. Qin Yi smiled: Also, the arrow box...can we forge such a sharp weapon for fast archery.

Long Qianlin was a little confused: Da Dutong, the arrow boxes were all made by the people from the Weapons Department of the Imperial Ministry of Industry. We couldn't find the blueprints at all, and the people we sent to Lanyan City to search for information didn't bring back enough. With a lot of information, I am afraid it will be difficult for Lingnan to develop arrow boxes in a short time.

Yes, I got it. Qin Yi stroked his beard and said, I heard that Zeng Yifan has returned to Lanyan City.

Hmph, that little old man...

There was a chill in Qin Yi's eyes, he looked in the direction of Lanyan City, and said: Zeng Yifan, the so-called imperial military god... Hey, he made a secret agreement with me at the beginning, and cooperated with the inside and outside, but now because of... because of Qin Jin... Betrayal to me is simply hateful.

Because of Qin Jin. Long Qianlin was surprised.

Qin Yi said indifferently: That's right, before the founding of the Yihe Kingdom, Zeng Yifan gave me a lot of information about Lanyan City, and I had a secret agreement with him that once the Yihe Kingdom was established, he would be crowned king. It's a pity... When I decided to kill Qin Jin, Zeng Yifan, these two-faced villains, strongly opposed it, and after I killed Qin Jin, Zeng Yifan never contacted Yihe Kingdom again.

Perhaps, in Zeng Yifan's heart, Qin Jin is still a sage... Long Qianlin sighed.

Holy Monarch.

Qin Yi couldn't help sneering: If Qin Jin was a holy king, he would lose half of his country so easily, let alone let himself die in Fairy Lake.

Long Qianlin said indifferently: The traffic in Lingnan and Lingbei is inconvenient. It was very obvious that the division was made more than a hundred years ago. The princes in Lingnan were all resentful towards the Lingbei royal family. This kind of anger has been passed down from generation to generation. This kind of situation, I'm afraid it's not something he can control, but the general thinks... the emperor who can be protected by someone like Zeng Yifan should be regarded as a wise emperor, Da Dutong has also seen it, Lan Yan After the city was broken, Qu Chu, Lei Hong, Yao Yuan, Du Hai and others defended Qin Yin with death, not to mention the four generals who shook the world. Although Jin is dead, he has left so many loyal generals and ministers for his daughter, will the general think Qin Jin is a fool?

There is no need to say any more.

Qin Yi was a little angry, looked at Long Qianlin with cold eyes, and said, Shuai Long, don't forget that Qin Jin is the murderer who killed your parents, do you still want to speak for him now?

Long Qianlin took a few steps back respectfully, cupped his hands and said, Please trust Qian Lin, I can stand here only because Dadu gave me a chance to kill my enemy.

Then... Qin Yi narrowed his eyes and asked meaningfully: Now that your enemy, Qin Jin, is dead, don't you think you will no longer be loyal to me?

Absolutely not. Long Qianlin said indifferently: Before the demons are wiped out, Long Qianlin will definitely swear allegiance to Yihe Kingdom.

Then...after the demons are eliminated.

After that... Long Qianlin's white cloak swayed slightly behind him, and he murmured: My hands are already stained with the blood of the imperial people, and I am already tired of human civil wars. After defeating the demons, Qianlin will naturally Disarmed and returned to the fields, I only want to die in peace, and I hope that Dadu will grant the general's request.

Disarmed and returned to the field.

Qin Yi glanced at him and couldn't help laughing: Qianlin, Qianlin, you were smart in this life, but you were confused for a while... You led an army to surround Lanyan City, destroy the Flying Cavalry Battalion, and kill Chu Huaimian , forced Zeng Xiang to death, and indirectly killed Qin Lei, do you think Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, and Qin Yan will let you go, do you think Zeng Yifan and Zeng Fang will let you go? It’s hard to do.”

Da Du Tong... Long Qianlin hesitated to speak.

Qin Yi waved his sleeves slightly, and said: I will talk about the future... If the empire really wants to avenge your personal revenge and trouble you, Yihe Kingdom's million-strong army will be at your disposal at any time, and you... just like Just like the immortal Luo Lan, you can stay in the Palace of the Seven Realms and enjoy the blessings.

Luo Lan...

Long Qianlin murmured: How long has the Immortal Luo Lan not been born?

After the Battle of Lanyan City, the Immortal Venerable never saw me again, and stayed in the Palace of the Seven Realms for self-cultivation. He just sent his disciples to help in the battle... However, the Immortal Venerable's disciples died one by one at the hands of Lin Muyu. Immortal Venerable is probably already angry in his heart.

However, Lanyan City is now under the command of Qin Han, who has the strength of an immortal. Qin Han has two first-class martial spirits, the God-binding Lock and the Eight-Wild Sword. In the confrontation of peak power, Yihe Kingdom has already fallen behind. .”

Yes. Qin Yi nodded, and said: Fortunately, as a god, he doesn't care about world affairs, so Qin Han's stay in Lanyan City is just to teach Qin Yin to practice, he will not directly attack Yihe Kingdom, We don't have to worry too much.

One more thing, Dadutong.

What's up.

This year's continuous rainfall in Lingnan has caused a lot of floods, and many counties have no crops. In addition, after we have collected a large amount of military rations, many people have no rations. At this time, we still have to collect autumn rations in exchange for Jinyin coins. The supply to the Palace of the Seventh Realm, the common people are already full of complaints, please let the general learn from it, the hearts of the people must not be lost.

Qin Yi frowned: It's not that I haven't thought about this matter, but... the agreement I made with Luo Lan Xianzun was like this, and I can't break it. Let's go on... Pass the order, and all the marquis, earls, The supply of the mansions of the Marshal and Admiral are halved, and we spend half of the gold Yin coins from my mansion, we can live a little bit harder, but we can’t lose our trust in the Seven Realms Palace.”

Yes, the general will know.

...

On October 15, 7735 in the imperial calendar, the Yihe Kingdom opened the gate of the steel wall, and nearly 300,000 troops rushed out. Using the power of armored vehicles and white diamond arrows, they defeated 20,000 demon defenders. Recapture the control of Qinling in Lingnan Province and Lingkong Province. So far, half of the sovereignty of Qinling is in the hands of the Empire, and half is in the hands of Yihe Kingdom.

A few days later, Long Qianlin was conferred the title of Marquis of Zhennan by Qin Yi because of his meritorious service in regaining the Qinling Mountains. So far, Long Qianlin's status in Yihe Kingdom has faintly surpassed that of Ji Yao, Man Ning, Ding Xi and others, and he has become a military and government official. The first person in power.

In the Battle of Yehuyuan, Lin Muyu beheaded 60,000 armored demons. This achievement seemed to not only give the empire a chance to breathe, but also achieved Long Qianlin's status in Yihe Kingdom. As Feng Jixing said, the battle of Yehuyuan was a The key battle in the years-long tug-of-war between humans and demons, if there hadn't been a wildfire battle, I'm afraid the fate of the mainland would have been rewritten.

...

Crackling...

In late autumn, the heavy rain pierced through the forest and beat the leaves, making a pattering sound. Under a lush bamboo forest, the horses of Lin Muyu, Qin Yin, and Tang Xiaoxi galloped by. On the face, originally Lin Muyu could sacrifice the gourd wall as an umbrella, but he didn't do so. After all, this time he was going out to practice, and he had to conserve his energy. This jungle is full of spirit beasts, bandits, mercenaries, etc. Only with good physical strength can we survive better.

Suddenly, Tang Xiaoxi raised his hand and pointed to the distance in the rain, and said, Here, there is an inn there. Let's go and rest for a night. How about going on our way tomorrow when the rain stops?

good.

Lin Muyu felt sorry for Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi who were with her, so she nodded and urged the horse to gallop away.
