War is a very expensive thing, and the cost is astronomical to ordinary monks, so every city will stock up on spiritual stones for a month to prepare for emergencies. However, the Royal Tomb is a special case. After all, it is a project under construction. Even though some spiritual stones for daily use have been stored, they are much less than those in the county town.
This also caused Wang Ling's spiritual stones to dry up early. Although Jiang You's measures solved the urgent need, it could only be dealt with for a while. If no reinforcements showed up after a month, they would have to fight the monsters head-on.
Fortunately, a lot of the main force of the monster army was consumed during this period. Although the monster's offensive was not weakened, the encirclement network was much looser.
But what cannot be ignored is that the losses suffered by the defenders were not small. Although the kill ratio with the monsters was one hundred to one, considering the huge number of monsters, this ratio was unacceptable, let alone the defensive effect. The barrier is the most important project. Once the barrier loses its energy supply, it will completely become a life-for-life.
Therefore, everyone can only pin their hopes on the reinforcements from the county and city that have not yet arrived. There are only two possibilities. The first is that the county and city are not optimistic, making them unable to send reinforcements to Tianmen; the other possibility is that the county and city are not optimistic. I thought that the royal tomb had fallen. Since it had already fallen, there was no need to prioritize rescue.
No matter what the reason was, they had to establish contact with the county town, so they came up with two more plans. The first one was to send an elite team to the county town. Although this was safer, the journey was too long and more complicated. Not to mention that if the county town has also fallen, this team can only say that it will never return; the second method is to sneak into the county town secretly. If the spiritual letter can be repaired quietly and establish short-term contact with the outside world, then the people here can also be The situation was sent out, but this plan was more taken for granted, sneaking in secretly? These monsters are obviously controlled by someone. Who can sneak in secretly?
No matter what kind of plan it is, it is equivalent to a dead end, but if you don't try to break the situation, it seems that you are going to die.
Therefore, in order to delay the counterattack, the defenders sent a team to search for supplies from the zombie demons. Although this could not fundamentally change the situation and even increased casualties to a greater or lesser extent, it could at least delay the situation. a few days.
Although Jiang You has a certain say in the cemetery, he is still not allowed to participate in the battle. All he does is manage the logistics supply of the entire garrison. In addition to keeping accounts, refining spiritual weapons, and transporting equipment. Only then were they allowed to go up the city wall.
This should be the envy of most people. Jiang Youben also thinks so. After all, not only is there not much danger, but it also comes with good benefits. If she had been placed in time travel, she seemed to be able to hang out for a lifetime.
But for some reason, she felt empty in her heart. Maybe it was because she finally traveled here. Who doesn't want to be a big shot who can move the world and make troops? But now she can only deal with this kind of battle.
Of course, the most important reason is confusion about the future. Obviously, she cannot be said to be absolutely safe. If reinforcements do not come, the cemetery is likely to fall, and they are also likely to die in the chaos.
In this situation, if you always feel unsure about placing everything on others, at least you need to try your best to improve the situation.
In fact, she also knows that her ability is likely to solve the dilemma in the cemetery, because as long as she can seal monsters or corpse slaves into the spiritual space, she can use their identities to sneak into the outside world, so whether she is going to the county or sneaking into County towns are much easier.
But she couldn't say it, and she was currently under surveillance and under house arrest. In addition, Lin Yan and Lin Yan did not have absolute trust, so she was unable to do anything.
So until there was a perfect plan, Jiang You had to continue to hide it. But this does not prevent her from paying attention to the outside world, so every time she transports city defense equipment, she will go to the city wall in person to see how the war situation has developed.
This day was the same, but the fact disappointed her. The monster beasts were still carrying out non-stop attacks. Although many monster beasts were killed by the defenders, there were also some monster beasts that appeared from nowhere and added in.
When will this day end? Jiang You sighed in his heart, and further strengthened his intention to sneak into the county town. After all, there were still a large number of hunting conference rewards stored there, and monsters and demons generally had no use for them. In other words, it was also a huge treasure house, not to mention that there should be more treasures there. There are many properties left by big families.
Thinking of this, Jiang You was even more excited. This was an opportunity for complete financial freedom, and it could also solve the crisis at hand. Maybe it was really worth taking a chance.
Just when she was freely planning how to get out of the city, cheers suddenly came from the city wall. She quickly looked into the distance, only to see an army coming towards her, with the two characters Wuwei clearly written on the flag!
"The reinforcements are coming!" Everyone cheered, which meant that not only did everyone not have to worry about their lives, but they would also be rewarded for their merits in guarding the tomb.
Having said that, Jiang You felt a little disappointed. This meant that his plan to sneak into the county town was ruined. Fortunately, there was a huge treasure there.
"No! No!" Mu Yun looked into the distance and shook his head.
"What's wrong?" Jiang You asked confused.
"This army has such a strong blood energy. It is different from the killing energy of the army. It is more like the blood energy of the demons." Mu Yun frowned.
After being reminded by Mu Yun, Jiang Youya had to nod. This was indeed very similar to the Blood Demon's blood. But it has to be said that there is indeed the military flag of the Wuwei Army in the distance. The formation on it cannot be faked casually. And judging from the momentum on the opposite side, there are nearly a hundred Jindan stage and even a dozen Nascent Soul masters. It is also quite reasonable for the vanguard of reinforcements.
Jiang You thought in his mind, maybe Wuwei County has also fallen. There are indeed reinforcements in the distance, but they are probably reinforcements from monsters!
It's just that all this is Jiang You's conjecture. This needs further confirmation to see if the monsters and reinforcements will fight.
It seemed that she was overthinking it. The monster beasts quickly rushed towards the reinforcements, and many monster beasts were even killed. But for some reason, the aura of demon blood became stronger.
At this time, Eunuch Liu, who had been locking himself in the middle courtyard, rushed out. Although he had been isolated, it did not mean that he did not know how to take credit. Seeing that the monster net was about to break away, he quickly gave the order. road.
"The reinforcements are coming. Everyone and I will fight out to meet the reinforcements. The court will also reward us based on our merits. The reward will be twice that of the previous hunting conference."
Eunuch Liu's words also gave everyone a boost. Before Lin Wei could give the order, many people rushed out of the city gate and attacked the monster.
Under the attack from both inside and outside, a hole was finally opened in the encirclement net, and the two armies finally reunited.
But the defenders finally discovered that there seemed to be something unusual about this support force. Their armors were actually from hundreds of years ago. Although they were very similar to current models, there were some differences in details. What was even weirder was that many of them still had armors on them. The corpse spots that turned into blood and the blood lines that only gore demons have.
Only then did everyone remember the legend, that is, Wuwei County once sent an army to garrison and investigate Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff, but all of them disappeared overnight. Except for the people, most of the supplies were still there, and there was even hot spiritual food in the pot.
Now it seems that the army must have been killed by the demons, so it appeared here to deceive the defenders, but the strange thing is that the army should be more than a dozen god-forming monks and nearly a hundred Nascent Soul monks!
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Sure enough, the so-called reinforcements also took off all their disguises, including their cultivation.
There are more than a dozen God-Transforming Demon Slaves, and the rest are all at Nascent Soul level. This lineup would be crushing in any county, let alone the defenders themselves giving up on defense!
"Evacuate! Enter the city quickly!" Jiang You shouted hurriedly, but unfortunately it was already too late. The monsters quickly separated and surrounded the humans, and the rest was just massacre!
"Quickly, close the city gate barrier quickly." Eunuch Liu also said in panic.
"But there are still many people outside." Lin Wei, who had just arrived, couldn't bear to say.
Eunuch Liu also said impatiently: "I can't control that much anymore. The most important thing now is to guard the royal tomb."
Jiang You shook his head helplessly. The situation was now in chaos. Let alone rescuing people, defending the royal tomb was just a dream. After all, the opposing team was several times stronger.
"General Lin, inform everyone to abandon the outer court and the middle courtyard, and everyone to retreat to the inner palace!" Jiang Youhurriedly said to Lin Wei.
"Do you even have to give up the Intermediate Court?" Lin Wei hesitated.
Jiang You said anxiously: "We can't control so much now. If we don't transfer the materials into the inner palace, it may not be reliable to retreat to the underground palace. The middle court can only be used as a line of defense to delay time."
"Lin Yan, you are so brave, this is disrespectful to the prince!" Eunuch Liu scolded.
"Go away, you didn't dig the hole." Jiang You said angrily, "If you hadn't come out and messed around, there would have been a chance to retreat to the middle courtyard."
Eunuch Liu was at a loss for words, but Lin Wei shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't even have the right to enter the inner palace, let alone let anyone in. It's not your final say in this kind of thing, unless the princess herself shows up."
"Human life is at stake, why can't we make some changes?" Jiang You advised.
"Sorry, it's my responsibility!" Lin Wei said decisively.
Seeing Lin Yan's defeat, Eunuch Liu also said proudly: "Lin Wei, you must guard the outer court, otherwise I will report to the Holy One and punish you for dereliction of duty as a commander."
Jiang Yougang wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Luo Fei, who had just arrived.
"Do you really want to save people?" Luo Fei whispered.
"It's not just about saving people, it's also about saving yourself." Jiang You nodded.
Luo Fei nodded, and then said calmly: "Actually, letting everyone enter the inner palace does not necessarily require the princess to show up. In fact, there is another way."
"What solution?" Jiang You asked doubtfully.
"Then let the prince show up." Luo Fei replied.
"Your Majesty, didn't he sacrifice his life?" Jiang You was even more surprised.
Luo Fei shook her head helplessly and said: "Tell the truth, have you worn the prince's armor? Although I don't know how you did it, you forgot to erase the breath from the armor."
Jiang You couldn't help feeling guilty, and she excused herself: "I didn't know it was the prince's armor at the time. I just thought it looked cool and tried it on."
"How dare you wear the armor with the prince's spiritual imprint? But since the prince's spiritual imprint is not to blame, I can't say anything, but now you are needed to pretend to be the prince." Luo Fei said angrily.
"Are you really going to help me?" Jiang You asked doubtfully.
"This is also self-rescue." Luo Fei said helplessly.
