Seriously, which pot is not opened and lifted? Lu Zijin and Xu Huaigu were still in the camp analyzing the situation on the southern defense line. They mentioned that Tanglin Pass was the most critical of the seven passes. News came from the front line over there that a nine-year-old had arrived at Tanglin Pass. The big monster in the realm attacked the city.
The word "coincidence" is sometimes the most untrustworthy, and sometimes there is nothing you can do about it. The situation in Tanglin Pass this time clearly belongs to the latter.
Xu Huaigu got Lu Zijin's order and rushed to Tanglin Pass. He was probably no less anxious than Lu Zijin, because he remembered that Tanglin Pass was where Yin Zushi was sent, and Yu Qin also stayed here with Yin Zushi.
No matter what, nothing happens to Yu Qin. Xu Huaigu's flying sword was extremely fast. The distance between Tanglin Pass and Lu Zijin's camp was only a hundred miles away in just a cup of tea. Xu Huaigu could see the pass built against the mountain from a distance.
At this time, the sound in Tanglin Pass was overwhelming, and the roars and drums of the demon tribe shook the surrounding mountains to tremble.
Xu Huaigu stood on the flying sword and looked down. He made a rough estimate. As the scout reported before, there were about 200,000 monsters here.
But there are only 100,000 Dayu soldiers guarding the pass, not to mention that there is a slender snake monster standing at the front of the monster army over there, which is dozens of feet long. I am afraid that it is the so-called Nine Realm That big monster.
The drums of the demon race were loud, and the soldiers guarding the city were obviously not confident enough. Even the drums were inferior, and their morale was naturally not as good as the other side.
Xu Huaigu did not dare to delay, so he quickly entered the pass with his sword and landed on the city wall. Immediately, a man wearing a cherry crown and armor, dressed as a general, hurriedly came to ask: "Who are you?" Xu Huaigu quickly replied. "I am a reinforcement sent by General Lu. My name is Xu Huaigu." The man immediately frowned, as if he didn't believe it, and asked, "Are you the only one?"
"No, it's just that I came the fastest, and the rest of the army is still on the way to support us."
"Are you a monk? What level are you in?"
"Eight Realms." The man's brows were still furrowed, and he didn't seem to be too optimistic about the reinforcements, but in the end it was better than nothing.
He turned around and walked forward quickly, saying, "Come with me to see General Chu." He strode forward, and Xu Huaigu followed.
The two of them stepped off the city wall and quickly walked into the commander's tent. There were already many monks and generals standing inside, and one man wearing armor stood at the front giving orders.
Xu Huaigu took a look from a distance and saw that this person had long hair and was small in stature. He seemed to be a woman.
There is actually a woman in this military camp? Moreover, judging from his demeanor and status, Xu Huaigu couldn't help but take a closer look.
Although the Dayu Kingdom had never banned women from joining the army, there were still very few women in the military camp, not to mention that the woman in front of him was a general.
Xu Huaigu was amazed in his heart, but the situation was critical now and it was not the time to ask more questions.
"This time the demon clan is coming with great force. Not only does it have an army of 200,000 people, but there is also a great demon from the ninth realm. It is determined to devour our Tanglin Pass at once! I have sent the Flying Sword to Xingyue Sect. No matter how fast the support is, it will take three hours. We must hold on to these three hours!" The female general looked solemn and spoke impassionedly, saying: "And this time the demon clan not only has a ladder, but also a lot of people. Battering rams are another big threat. Friend monks, please give priority to those battering rams and never let the city gates be breached. Otherwise, in a close fight, our army will never be the opponent of the demon clan. Consequences It’s so tragic that it’s unimaginable!”
"The rest of the generals, order your men to focus more on the sky! The offensive under the city wall can be temporarily defended with fire attacks. Remember to beware of flying monsters in the sky! General Chen, how many arrows are left?"
"Report, there are fifty thousand left!" The female general frowned, waved her hand and ordered: "Let the archers under you save some use! Take aim before shooting!"
"yes!"
"Yin Zushi, Xia Ying!"
"exist!"
"You two are the people with the highest cultivation level in Tanglin Pass. Tell me the exact number. How long can you hold that snake demon off?" Yin Zushi and Xia Ying looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.
Yin Zizhi frowned and said: "We try our best to support only one cup of tea! Otherwise, our lives will be in danger!"
"Look, no one here is in danger of life!" When the female general heard Yin Zishi's words, she couldn't help but gnashed her teeth in anger,
"You still care about your life on the battlefield, so what are you doing here! A cup of tea is useless, just hold on for at least an hour!" Yin Zushi gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!" Someone hurried forward and said He lowered his head and reported: "General Chu, reinforcements from General Lu are here! He is a monk!"
"Where are people?"
"I brought it to the camp!" The man waved Xu Huaigu to come forward. Xu Huaigu pushed through the crowd and walked quickly to the female general. He lowered his head and cupped his hands and said, "Xu Huaigu, the eight-level swordsman, is at the mercy of the general." For a moment, the camp suddenly became quiet.
Xu Huaigu thought that the female general who made the impassioned speech would definitely yell at him. After all, she was so angry that she had even scolded Yin Zushi. But it was completely contrary to his imagination. The female general didn't say anything?
Xu Huaigu was a little curious and glanced up. He saw the female general looking at him blankly, with shock on her face. Xu Huaigu was also surprised when he saw it at such a close distance.
This female general is such a familiar face. She seems a bit like Chu Xiuyang? Seeing her surprised look, Xu Huaigu's suspicions were confirmed.
When he helped Chu Xiuyang escape from the Fusang Kingdom, she said she wanted to go south to make great achievements. Xu Huaigu had no news about her for so many years. Unexpectedly, she actually came to the border and was promoted to general?
Thinking of what Lu Zijin said,
"Tanglin Pass is guarded by a general whom I trust very much." It seems that Chu Xiuyang is doing well in this military camp!
He asked tentatively: "Chu Xiuyang?" Everyone in the camp looked at him in confusion. The female general seemed to have reacted, her eyes were clear again, her expression was no longer dull, and she said sternly: "What did you say?" Xu Huaigu took another careful look, and he looked more and more like Chu Xiuyang.
But she seemed to deliberately not want to recognize her in front of everyone, so she hurriedly said: "Nothing, please send me the general." The female general regained her general's demeanor and asked simply: "You, Yin Zishi and Xia Ying, together with that How long can the nine-level snake monster delay?" Xu Huaigu glanced at Yin Zushi secretly, and saw that Yin Zushi seemed to be relieved when he saw him, and his expression became much more relaxed.
"Report to the general, without the help of Yin Zishi and Xia Ying, I can hold down the snake demon alone." Xia Ying couldn't help being surprised, but Yin Zishi was relatively calm, as if he expected it.
The female general narrowed her eyes, looked at him carefully, and said seriously: "Are you serious? If you lose your life by blindly trying to show off, or delay the opportunity to fight, I will punish you!"
"I'm telling the truth. If you can't do it, please general, please use military law to deal with it!"
"Okay! You have issued a military order!" The female general laughed loudly.
"If you do it, there will be a celebration drink waiting for you. If not, come and see me!" Xu Huaigu agreed.
The war drums outside rumbled, and a man quickly ran into the camp and shouted: "Report! The demon army has begun to attack. The flying demons are leading the attack. There are more than 20,000 of them by visual inspection!"
"Get ready quickly!" The female general stood up quickly, with an imposing look on her brows.
"Bring me my bow, I want to go to the city wall myself!" After saying this, she walked out quickly, and a personal guard took a large horn bow and handed it to her.
Following her footsteps, everyone ran out of the tent and took their positions, preparing for this difficult battle. When Xu Huaigu walked out of the camp, he suddenly felt that the sky was gloomy, as if black clouds were pressing down on the environment.
Looking up, I saw a large black mass of flying demons, like locusts passing by, covering the sky and the sun, countless of them.
You must know that each of these flying monsters is a monster that kills people with blood. There are so many of them, and it is self-evident how strong their sense of oppression is.
"Fire arrows!" With a command, arrows shot into the air one after another. In an instant, a large number of flying monsters were hit by arrows, their wings were broken, and they fell from the sky wailing. However, many flying monsters were lucky enough to get through the defense line of arrows and flew to the city wall to kill.
Yu Qin rushed to Xu Huaigu's side impatiently from nowhere and said worriedly: "You just said such words in the tent, it really made me anxious! Are you sure you can deal with that snake demon? Let's call Yin Zushi together. !" Xu Huaigu smiled calmly and said: "No need, you know that I am the most cautious person, and I will not do anything I am not sure about. Don't worry, I will be fine, but you, you must protect yourself." Yu Qin be more serious. He nodded, but there was still uneasiness in his eyes.
Yin Zushi happened to come over, and Xu Huaigu hurriedly told him: "Yin Zushi, take care of her for me." Yin Zushi smiled and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to her unless I die." Xu Huaigu nodded with confidence, and Yu Qin After just one step and three turns, he followed Yin Zizhi.
Xia Ying was withdrawn by nature and always used to go into battle alone to kill the enemy. She did not walk with them. At this time, she passed Xu Huaigu and glanced at him sideways before leaving.
Xu Huaigu took a deep breath and prepared for the battle. He used his flying sword and quickly landed on the city wall to observe the situation.
The flying monsters overhead were still harassing them, and the monsters under the city wall were also advancing step by step. The female general was very skilled in martial arts and was shooting demons with her bow.
I didn't realize that her small stature could actually pull out the full moon bow, and the arrows were not missed. When she encountered the approaching demon, she drew the knife directly, raised the knife and dropped it. In a short time, the corpses of the flying demon were piled around her. , no demon can get close to her.
Xu Huaigu secretly sighed that Chu Xiuyang's martial arts was getting better and better, but Chu Xiuyang noticed that someone was looking at him. When he found out that it was Xu Huaigu, he winked at him and indicated that killing monsters was the most important thing now. What's the matter? Let’s talk about it later.
Xu Huaigu nodded in understanding, looked down the city wall, and saw the snake demon quickly attacking towards the city gate, probably trying to forcefully cast a spell to break the city gate.
He jumped directly from the city wall and stood just a few feet in front of the snake demon. Then he drew out his sword and swept away the surrounding little demons, and stood face to face with the snake demon.
The road was blocked, and the snake demon suddenly stopped, hissed out the snake letter, and stayed on the spot, looking at the man in front of him coldly.
The surrounding demons were surging, and there was no place where they could even stand. Only where the two of them were, no demon dared to approach them, and a clearing was suddenly cleared.
After a while, the snake demon finally realized that the person in front of her was not as good as her, and her eyes became fierce again.
She raised her head high, the snake hissed, and her eyes were filled with the excitement of a hunter seeing his prey.
Xu Huaigu sneered and raised his sword.
