The Alchemist God

The fierce naval battle lasted for nearly five hours. Regardless of whether Feng Jixing would admit it or not, the empire had already lost the naval battle. Almost all the buildings and ships were lost, and there were very few iron boats and iron boats left. This battle, at least More than 100,000 imperial warriors died in the East China Sea. After this battle, the empire was no longer able to compete with the Tianji Empire for the sovereignty of the sea.

Scrub...

Two figures in the air rushed over, they were Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi.

We're late.

Looking at the wreckage in the sea, Lin Muyu turned pale, and slowly landed on the deck, saying, Brother Feng, how are you?

fine.

Feng Jixing managed to stand up, but his divine and physical strength had been exhausted, and his body shook violently.

Lin Muyu hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but found that Feng Jixing's arm was covered with scars, and his armor was soaked in blood. He is a strong man in the divine realm, and he was injured so seriously.

Ayu, you are back. Feng Jixing smiled miserably: We lost.

Lin Muyu frowned and said: The Tianji Empire used part of the Longji Corps as suspects to pin me and Xiaoxi on the Eight Wastelands. We miscalculated, and it was my fault.

Feng Jixing slowly shook his head: No, you are right, I am incompetent, and this battle will be so completely defeated...

Don't talk about it, hurry up and rescue the soldiers who fell into the water, and rescue them in time.

Um.

...

It was not until late at night that the dilapidated fleet returned from the East China Sea and rescued all the people who could be saved. At least the bodies on the sea were unable to be rescued at all, so they could only be buried in the deep sea.

The night in Cangfeng Harbor was unspeakably cold, the sea wind howling, also brought the cries in the barracks in the distance, many people lost their companions and close friends, and more people could not see the hope of living, so A powerful opponent seems doomed to failure and death.

When the morale of the army is in turmoil, morale falls into a trough.

In the tent of the Chinese army, Feng Jixing said in a low voice with a tired face.

Lin Muyu remained silent. After a long while, she stood up and said, Since the sea battle cannot be won, let's prepare for the land battle. The order will be passed on. The major legions will rest for three days and prepare to fight again. The battle statistics are not ready yet.

A clerk said respectfully: Okay, Your Highness.

read.

yes.

The clerk's hand holding the pages of the book trembled slightly, and said: This battle is named Blue Wind Sea Battle. Our army sunk 281 buildings and damaged 74 buildings, and 743 iron warships were sunk and 198 were injured. 1,123 warships were sunk, 27 were damaged, 1,747 warships were sunk and self-destructed, and 114 were damaged.”

Lin Muyu felt heavy in his heart, feeling a little dizzy, raised his hand and said, Keep reading, the number of casualties.

yes.

The clerk's voice became much quieter, and said: In this battle, 7 commanders were killed, 84 commanders were killed, more than 145,000 soldiers were killed, more than 70,000 were injured, and about 300 were captured. , the battlefield is too chaotic, these records are just estimates, not completely sure, three Your Highnesses, the wounded battalion is already full, and the wound medicines brought by the Spirit Medicine Department will be exhausted within seven days, and must be redeployed from Lanyan City.

Understood, let's do it. Lin Muyu waved his hand and signaled the clerk to go down.

Feng Jixing raised his head, his eyes were a little red, and said: Everyone, let's discuss how to fight next.

Baili Cang lowered his head and remained silent. As the commander of the Imperial Navy, he was inseparably responsible for such a disastrous defeat in this battle.

Su Yu bit her red lip, but there was nothing she could do.

Tang Zhen, the commander of the Zhen Guojun, and Linghuyan, the maiden of the monster clan, also remained silent. They did not participate in the Blue Wind Sea Battle, but this battle was tantamount to a nightmare for them.

In the end, Zeng Yifan, a veteran of the third generation, coughed and said, There is no other way but to organize the army to prepare for war. If the Tianji Empire's army lands on the coast other than the three major ports, we will be unable to stop it. For now The trick is to stick to the big cities and clear the fields, as long as we hold the cities and deprive the troops of the Tianji Empire of supplies and food, they will not be able to fight for a long time.

Zeng Yifan's words brightened everyone's eyes. At this moment, it seems that only his words can give people hope.

That's what I said, but if the Tianji Empire's army lands, they want to attack any city. With the power of more than a hundred dragon knights, I'm afraid they won't be able to defend any city in our three northern provinces. Feng Jixing said lightly. Dao also poured a basin of cold water on the hope that everyone had ignited.

Linghuyan looked at Lin Muyu and asked, Your Highness Yu, do you have any ideas?

Lin Muyu's heart was in a mess: No, is there any news from Qihai Province?

Not yet. Su Yu said: Even if there is a war there, it will take at least two days for the news to reach us.

Is there any news about the main fleet of the Tianji Empire? Lin Muyu asked again.

No.

Su Yu shook her head again: The war eagle scouts we sent seem to be in danger. It's so easy for the dragon knight to kill the war eagle scouts. Maybe we shouldn't send scouts to the sea to spy on the military situation. They just died in vain.

Lin Muyu was silent for a while, and said: Okay, let's all go back and rest early. Tomorrow morning, the army will leave camp and return to Winterfrost City.

yes.

It seems that there is no better way than this.

...

In the early morning of the next day, when Tang Xiaoxi pushed open the door of Lin Muyu's room, he was startled by his appearance, his eyes were bloodshot, his expression was slumped, and there was no trace of the handsome appearance of the Lanyan Four Heroes back then.

Mumu... You, haven't you slept all night? Tang Xiaoxi was so distressed.

Can't sleep.

Lin Muyu put on her armor, looked at the water in the washbasin, and said, I've been thinking about it all night, but I haven't come up with any feasible solution. We can only be passive step by step, watching the Tianji Empire encroach on the old father's hand. Entrusted to our territory.

Tang Xiaoxi pursed her red lips, hugged him gently from behind, and said softly, Don't scare me like this, you are going to drive yourself crazy, please, don't do this...

Lin Muyu smiled slightly: When Xiao Yin was here, I could always think of a good solution, but now that Xiao Yin is not here, I feel like I have lost my soul and become a useless waste. You are such a useless piece of trash.

Don't say it...don't say it. Tang Xiaoxi burst into tears.

At this moment, a flying report came from outside, and the herald kneeled respectfully on the bluestone slab outside the steps, and said: His Royal Highness, Yu Shufei reported that the beast cavalry of the Tianji Empire attacked the Tongtian Province late last night. Mu Jun, this is a request for help from Mu Jun, about four hours ago, His Royal Highness King Zhong asked if he would send troops for reinforcements.

Lin Muyu trembled all over, and a chill came from his heart, and said: No need, Mu County has fallen, pass the order, immediately mobilize 50,000 Gendan Battalion cavalry, rush to the rescue of Tongtian City, they took Mu County, the next one is Tongtian City.

yes.

After the herald left, Lin Muyu suddenly fell into the corner of the room in a daze, trembling unconsciously, her face pale, like a seriously ill person, and muttered: How could they be in Mujun...how could they be here? In Wood County...

They split up.

Tang Xiaoxi lowered her body, hugged her poor lover, and said, From the very beginning, they decided to split up their forces and go to the provinces.

Lin Muyu's eyes were blank: Tongtian City cannot be lost. Once Tongtian City is lost, the hub passages of our four northern and southern provinces will be cut off, and the eastern border of the empire will be over... can't be lost, absolutely can't be lost...Xiao Xi prepares his horse, We will reinforce Tongtian City together with Longdan Battalion, maybe we can catch up.

Um……

Tang Xiaoxi's eyes were gentle, but seeing Lin Muyu's heart hurt like a knife, the disparity between the strength of the enemy and the enemy almost crushed him.

...

A spring rain fell on the eastern border of the empire. A tree of pear blossoms bloomed in the county town of Mu County, as bright and beautiful as fireflies in the daytime. The breath after the killing, even the pear blossoms on the roadside were splashed with a little scarlet.

In the city, the black tiger and leopard riders protected the center row of riders and walked slowly.

Surrounded by the crowd was a very burly man, wearing a golden cloak. He was the marshal of the Tianji Empire, Bei Minghuan, one of the 62 Heavenly Saint Martial Gods, and the younger brother of the emperor Bei Mingyuan.

Bei Minghuan stared disdainfully at the battlefield being cleaned on both sides. The corpses of countless soldiers defending the city were piled up together, and blood and rainwater mixed together and flowed in the ditches.

The commander-level general on the side smiled and said: Marshal, we have taken the city like lightning in this battle. Perhaps, a massacre of the city to reward the three armies will make the morale of the soldiers even higher.

Bei Minghuan smiled: Does Commander Custer want to massacre the city?

The subordinate is just a suggestion.

oh.

Bei Minghuan looked at the other side again, it was a young man dressed as a Confucian scholar, wearing a white cloak, he looked extremely elegant, and said: Gong Shangming, what do you think?

This person is the number one counselor under Bei Minghuan's command.

Gong Shangming smiled slightly and said: It is easy to win the city, but difficult to win the hearts of the people. Marshal, His Majesty the Holy Emperor has always convinced people with virtue. Since we want to win the world of the Broken Cauldron Realm, we must also convince people with virtue. We cannot let the people of the Broken Cauldron Realm The common people are afraid of us, and if we do that, we may lose another city after we take one city.

oh.

Bei Minghuan chuckled: Sir, please enlighten me.

Gong Shangming clasped his fists and said: Post up notices to restrain the three armies and not oppress the common people. In addition, deprive the original vassals of their land and distribute it equally to the common people. In this way, the people's hearts and cities will belong to our Tianji Empire.

good.

Bei Minghuan was full of praise: I have one Mr., as if I have a hundred thousand soldiers.

Gong Shangming respectfully said: Marshal is absurd, I think we should set off to attack Tongtian City as soon as possible, the faster we are, the less time Lin Muyu has to react, Tongtian City is an important military strategist, and taking Tongtian City is equivalent to breaking Lin Muyu an arm.

Okay, listen to sir, order the three armies to set off after eating and drinking, and advance at full speed to attack Tongtian City.

yes.

On the side, Custer nodded, but there was a trace of chill in his gaze towards Gong Shangming.
