Chapter 230: Retire after success
The news of Wu Ma's assassination of the Demon Emperor spread wildly throughout the Southern Territory, and then reached Tianting. The emperor, who was dying of illness, sat up in shock. He was so weak that he couldn't even breathe easily, but he laughed three times in a row.
"Old monster, old monster, you didn't expect it, did you? I didn't expect it either! Cough cough cough - have fun, have fun."
The Queen was on the side of the dragon bed, mixing medicine with bare hands, which seemed to be the most bitter medicine in the world.
In her hands, it will become sweet.
"Here comes someone, telling me my will..."
Just as the emperor was about to issue a commendation order, he was interrupted by the empress.
"Your Majesty - Jianlin will not deal with our royal family. Your Majesty's imperial edict is very powerful, but our family's face... also needs to be taken care of."
"Then what does Queen Yi mean...ahem...what should we do?"
The queen looked at the sluggish man in front of her, and she sighed vaguely.
"Your Majesty is the Emperor, so naturally it is up to Your Majesty to make your own decision."
The emperor said angrily: "...Then I still decide...to reward Jian Lin. This is what the fate of the country of Great Xia should be... If my vitality had not been so badly damaged back then, I would not have a good look towards that Jian Lin this time.
Alas, my time is approaching, and those things no longer matter. Wu Ma's attempt to assassinate the Demon Emperor failed, and he probably won't survive. I'll just be generous for once. "
The queen picked up the medicine bowl and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, isn't this good..."
"The emperor will never live to be a hundred years old."
The emperor murmured, "I am no exception."
——
In ancient times, Jing Ke stabbed the King of Qin, and in our dynasty, Wu Ma stabbed the Demon King.
Although the former has a name in history, King Qin was not injured after all, right? However, Wu Ma succeeded. According to the spy report, the Demon King was seriously injured, otherwise the high priest would not have rushed back in such a hurry.
At this time, the whole world knew that one of the disciples of the Sword Master was Wu Ma, who was in the realm of gods. He was extremely brave and resourceful. He sneaked into the demon realm and assassinated the demon emperor without telling anyone.
He is really a good old man. Although he did not escape completely, it made the entire Daxia people marvel and admire him endlessly.
Praise for his wisdom and martial arts, but sigh for his solitary courage and never return.
Yes, the assassination was unsuccessful, and Wu Ma, a human hero, naturally became a prisoner of the demon clan. It is estimated that the demon emperor is thinking about how to execute Wu Ma in a perverted way to save some face, and to deter those who may be inspired by this incident to watch in secret. An undercover spy who will stab you at any time.
Killing chickens to scare monkeys and knocking mountains to scare tigers are common methods.
Of course, there is another important thing about the demon clan that cannot be concealed - the priest is lost and missing. On the front line, everyone remembers that the priest clearly followed the army on the expedition, but why didn't he see anyone when he came back?
Moreover, as a rule, when the army returns, there will be priests communicating with the witch god to send blessings and comfort. Why is it that this prayer was not carried out?
Many people were so shocked and surprised. Could it be that the priest disappeared on the battlefield?
As the spokesperson of the Witch God, the priest does not want those who are officials. If he wants to change or withdraw, there will be someone who can step in at any time. When the high priest chose the priest, it took a full hundred years to decide. According to the God of the Witch, The edict selected a pure-blooded elven clan—

As soon as You Chuiyun entered the big tent, his eyes were sharp.
Li Mu looked blind. When Mr. Li looked at the map, his nose was almost touching it, and he was still mouthing "eh, ah, um" - these lines seemed to express that he was studying the map in depth.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
You Chuiyun slapped Member Li on the back of the head, causing his nose to really come into close contact with the map.
"Do you understand? You are so serious - come here, point me to the north, south, east, and west!" You Chuiyun cursed with dark circles under his eyes.
Officer Li shouted: "It wasn't my idea..." and ran away.
You Chuiyun looked at his hurried away figure, pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, and said, "You have an idea? You have a shitty idea. They are all bad ideas."
Li Mu's hands stiffened while adjusting the armor, and then he pretended to sigh: "The armor of this demon clan is becoming more and more sophisticated...it's not much worse than our Daxia military uniforms."
Then he looked up at You Chuiyun: "Hey, young hero, why are you... so... looking like you haven't woken up? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
You Chuiyun sat on the table and began to look carefully at the map that Member Li had looked at before.
"Yes, it was a bit cold last night, and the bed was also very cold - well, it would be great if there was a bed-warming maid, don't you think so, Commander Li?"
Li Mu nodded with deep approval: "We have made great achievements in this battle, and we must be rewarded. Not to mention the maids and the messy house. You can't even reward me as a general."
You Chuiyun was too lazy to argue with this rough guy who dreamed of becoming a rich man, and asked, "What did the spies we sent out say?"
"Withdrawn, the Demon Emperor's army is basically retreating - it seems that a big battle cannot be fought. Our loss in Daxia this time is very small, but the enemy will not say anything else, the food and grass are estimated to have been reduced by three If you put in a year’s worth of food, you’ll get a spanking? A spanking?”
You Chuiyun nodded and continued to look at the map.
Li Mu said: "The demon army closest to us is temporarily stationed three hundred miles away, which is marked on the map... This army is so fat. The spies said they brought people they had captured in our Daxia territory. of supplies.
Young hero, shall we do it again?"
I thought You Chuiyun would agree like before, but no, he thought about it for a long time this time.
Only then did he give the reply: "This vote cannot be used."
Li Mu banged his fists on the table habitually, and said in surprise: "Ah? Why? You won't even eat such a big fat sheep in your mouth."
"If you want to eat, you must have a life to eat."
You Chuiyun poked at the map: "Look at this location for yourself..."
Li Mu came over and looked carefully, then raised his head with a thoughtful look: "I can't understand."
…
"I've been teaching you for so long and you really haven't learned anything at all?" You Chuiyun said angrily: "This is a valley, can you tell? It's shaped like a gourd. If we go in, we probably won't be able to get out." Once blocked, we will be caught in a trap and unable to escape."
Li Mu nodded and said: "I understand. If we deploy more troops in these corners of the two wings, we will be made dumplings."
"right."
You Chuiyun nodded and said: "It seems that you have made some progress - for example, your recent thoughts caught me off guard."
Li Mu was very smart at this moment and didn't answer.
"We have already obtained the military glory we want to gain. We should accept it when it is good, otherwise we will lose everything - war is a gamble. Greedy people will eventually lose everything, including their wealth and life."
You Chuiyun said: "In my opinion, Li Mu, it's time for us to withdraw."
Li Mu showed a disappointed expression.
He was originally a centurion of little promise, with limited force and little wisdom.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
. During this month-long tour of the Demon Clan, he was fished out from the trough of being captured by You Chui Yunsheng, and then was led to the peak of his life by the young hero.
To be honest, the achievements they made this time, including capturing the demon priest alive and making a general, were more than enough. The more than 100 of them were a great shock to the country, and they were proud and proud. I estimate that if the emperor had not given him dozens of lifetimes, Not even wealth that can’t be spent all will do.
His name, Li Mu, was also named after Qingshi, who was like a glory, and all the big men inside who looked at the sky would probably be jealous.
After serving as an official for a lifetime, which scholar would not want to be remembered forever and be given the posthumous title Wenzheng.
After spending a lifetime on the battlefield, which general would not want to seize the wolf as a bastard and drink from the vast sea of horses.
But it happened that Li Mu, who didn’t know Chinese characters, really did it!
It was all thanks to You Chuiyun.
Li Mu was truly convinced by You Chuiyun, and he even felt that if he were still a member of the martial arts world, he would be an ally in blood and be loyal to the sword.
Looking back at the dreamlike month, they were like an invincible human race, stabbing the enemy in the back in various ways.
The changeable tactics, the magical detours, and the time difference in attacking the enemy time and time again as if the eyes of the sky were opened in the enemy's encirclement. Faced with dozens of times the number of troops, he can retreat unscathed.
To be honest, if it weren't for the military god Wang Xuanba Zhuyu in front of him, Li Mu would have wanted to call You Chuiyun the military god. A hundred-man army used it so superbly that he just wanted to ask three words out loud.
Who else!
So when Yu Chuiyun said to retreat, Li Mu had no objection at all. He just felt that this month of invincibility, like a dream, was finally coming to an end.
He felt like he had reached the peak of his life.
You Chuiyun was as attentive as a hair, and naturally knew the emotions in the veteran's heart, so he patted him on the shoulder.
"Commander Li - next time we come back, it won't be a hundred people. At that time, we will bring at least a thousand people, no, ten thousand people. We will use these ten thousand people to pierce the demon clan from the left waist to the right." The waist, then poke the skin of the swallow and come out from the mouth, so that they will know how powerful our Daxia officers and soldiers are in fear for the rest of their lives!"
"Yes! Go in with the left waist and come out with the right waist. We have a long way to go."
"Oh, idiom."
"Hehehe, I learned it from Young Hero."
"Stop flattering us. It's not a good place to stay here for long. Order us to go down and retreat - let's - make a triumphant return!"
"Triumph!"
Excited shouts spread throughout the camp, and the group packed their bags and prepared to go home.
——
"Girl, you - you came out of nowhere."
Officer Li felt strange, how could he always meet such an outstanding-looking woman in the deep mountains and old forests? Could it be that God had tempered him? Is Member Li a stinky man who can't control his lower body?
The little girl in red pulled up her hair and held a bloody dragon head in her hand. This strange scene made Li and the soldiers hold the swords, guns, swords and halberds tightly in their hands.
"rest assured."
The girl in red threw the dragon's head to the ground: "I am also a human, and I came here to kill demons. Look, this is the dragon I just killed."
Everyone had never seen a dragon before, so they were very curious and poked it here and there with their weapons.
"It turns out this is a dragon. The snake's head has horns. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Even though it's dead, I still feel very scary."
"Is this the thing that brought the flood and destroyed the bridge in our village?"
"Learn more, learn more."
