That night, Li Xiuyuan and Crow left Gaopingguan far away and found a remote forest to spend the night.
Just like Xiao Hei back then, Li Xiuyuan wandered around the wasteland outside Gaoping Pass for half the night. He didn't return to the woods until dawn and lay down under a tree to sleep.
He said to Crow: "If you want to play, go by yourself. I want to have a good sleep during the day. I was exhausted last night."
Crow asked: "When will the demon army arrive?"
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and replied: "You happen to be fine, fly forward and see if these guys are coming, and if they are, how far they are from here."
Crow nodded: "Okay, wait until I wake up and take a look."
At this time, Princess Qingyue led the army into Gaoping Pass in a mighty manner, making Jun Buyu's hanging heart finally fall to the ground.
At present, there are fifty thousand troops in Gaoping Pass. Even if the Gongsun family of the Demon Realm sends a large army to attack, he is not afraid anymore.
Princess Qingyue, Chu Feiyan entered the city lord's mansion and asked Jun Buyu, "Where is the generalissimo?"
Jun Buyu shrugged and said with a wry smile: "Last night, he took the crow out of the city and went to the imperial city of the Demon Realm."
Just as Li Xiuyuan ordered, he couldn't let Qingyue, or even Jun Wuyou and others, still rely on him. He wanted to leave this battle to Qingyue.
Qingyue frowned and couldn't help but ask, "Is he so anxious?"
Chu Feiyan was also anxious and shouted: "My brother, Hua Yuyu still wants to drink with him, but now, he actually ran away."
Jun Buyu shook his head, looked at the two men and said seriously: "We have dug three trenches outside the city. It is estimated that the demon army will be able to attack tomorrow. The Generalissimo said that all future battles will be commanded by Princess Qingyue."
Qingyue was stunned: "You dug three trenches outside the city. Is this the Third Marshal's idea?"
"That's right, before the others arrived, the crow brought the news."
Jun Buyu looked at the two women and told them all about the troubles Li Xiuyuan encountered on the road and what happened in the city.
Finally, he looked at the two women and said, "My brother will leave the Shura Heaven Realm before we can solve the problem in the entire Demon Realm. Don't bother him anymore."
Chu Feiyan became anxious upon hearing this, looked at Qingyue and asked, "Princess, does this guy not care about us?"
Before Qingyue could reply, Jun Buyu smiled: "As long as he can deal with the big devil, the rest is our own business."
Qingyue sighed, looked at Chu Feiyan and said, "It's good that he can do this. After all, his path is different from ours."
After thinking for a while, Qingyue continued: "Our home is in the Shura Heaven, and the Generalissimo still has friends in the wild world."
Chu Feiyan thought about it, but said unwillingly: "Will the demon army come to attack Gaoping? Will their number be several times ours?"
she asked worriedly.
"We are already prepared. Even if we are facing a war, it is inevitable."
Jun Buyu took out a drawing, spread it on the table, and introduced it to Princess Qingyue in detail.
Qingyue looked at it carefully and couldn't help but laugh.
He patted Chu Feiyan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, the Generalissimo used the same trick he used in Da Chu here again. It's not bad to think about it."
Jun Buyu smiled: "The general said, first consume half of the opponent's strength, and then eliminate them here in one fell swoop."
Qingyue nodded: "With a distance of one hundred feet and three lines of defense, even if the enemy has siege tanks, they can't fight at close range. We are confident that we can win this battle."
Jun Buyu continued: "On the first night, the enemy will probably run away with one to two thousand people..."
After arranging the two girls, Jun Buyu was going to find Chu Feng and Hua Tianyu. He had suffered enough alone these days, and finally waited for the two of them, and he wanted to talk to them.
At this time, Chu Ruoyu also took Hua Chenyu for a walk, and came to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion to find Li Xiuyuan,
After hearing that the Generalissimo had gone to the Demon Realm Imperial City, Chu
Ruoyu started to yell.
Seeing Princess Qingyue's appearance, Hua Chenyu could only sigh and said, "What are you afraid of? With so many of us together, how can we be afraid of the demon army?"
Qingyue chuckled: "You two have to learn to grow up."
On this day, the sun has not set yet.
The crow then flew into the living room of the city lord's mansion, looked at Princess Qingyue and shouted: "The army of the Demon Realm has arrived, there are almost 50,000 troops..."
"So fast?"
Princess Qingyue frowned. She didn't expect that she had just arrived with her army, and before she had a good rest, the enemy had already reached the outside of the city.
After thinking for a while, he asked, "Where's the Generalissimo? Did he say how this battle will be fought?"
Crow shook his head: "The Generalissimo has already left here for a hundred miles... He said that Princess Qingyue is more powerful than Chu Feng. It's up to you to decide this battle."
Chu Feng, who was sitting aside, smiled angrily at Jun Buyu and said, "Look, he just likes to hurt me."
Jun Buyu thought for a while and replied: "We are all inferior to princesses. Don't you think you are like an idiot sometimes?"
The crow flapped its wings and flew out of the living room, quacking and saying, "Yes, the Generalissimo said Chu Feng is an idiot."
"Did the Generalissimo say when he would be back?" Qingyue thought for a while, chased him out of the living room, looked at the crow in the sky and shouted.
Crow shook his head: "He didn't say, so I didn't dare ask."
Chu Feiyan walked out, looked at the crow that was gradually flying away, and said in a solemn voice: "It would be good if it can come to report the news. If he wants to come back, he will naturally come..."
At this moment, a silent sentry from outside the city rushed in, looked at Jun Buyu and said, "Second Young Master, the enemy has already reached five miles outside the city and set up camp..."
Jun Buyu nodded and waved the silent whistle to leave.
He turned around and said to Qingyue Gong: "Princess, from now on, you will be the Grand Marshal."
It was night, and the crow lay beside the fire, looking up at Li Xiuyuan beside him.
Li Xiuyuan touched its feathers and said, "Don't worry, at this time, they will show their sharpness, let them be majestic all night."
The crow asked: "Would you like to set a fire?"
"No, you don't have to go anywhere tonight or during the day tomorrow. We'll just sleep here. We won't get any sunlight."
Li Xiuyuan chose a forest far away from the battlefield. Even the horses lived happily here, with water and grass and no need to bask in the sun.
Crow nodded: "It seems that those guys still put all their hopes on you."
"Haha, they think too much."
Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "We'll stay here for three days, and then you take me to fight the big devil. We'll finish it as soon as possible. I'm leaving."
When Crow heard that he was about to fight the big devil, he laughed and said, "I guess he will only stay in one place, and he won't dare to live there anymore in the Imperial City."
"Why?" Li Xiuyuan asked puzzledly.
"Because there is no evil spirit that guy needs in Black Rock City!"
Crow said mysteriously: "After the abyss was destroyed and the magic tree died, the evil spirit of the magic mountain became less and less. I guess that guy wants to resurrect the magic tree."
Li Xiuyuan chuckled, thinking that this was possible. After all, for the Demon King, the Demonic Tree might be an indispensable source of cultivation.
After thinking for a while, Li Xiuyuan continued: "So, when the magic tree fell, you were on that tree?"
Crow nodded and replied without thinking: "Yes, I had not left the Demon Realm at that time. I only left after the old tree fell."
Li Xiuyuan took a breath, touched its feathers and smiled: "Well, take out my golden arrow!".z.
Without even thinking about it, Li Xiuyuan concluded that the golden arrow he shot must have been hidden by this money-grubbing guy.
When the crow heard this, he was so frightened that his fur flew up.
Wing Teng jumped up: "Is that golden arrow yours?"
"you say
Woolen cloth? " Without saying anything, Li Xiuyuan took out another golden arrow in his hand, looked at it and said quietly: "I have three arrows like this in total."
This was a treasure given to him by his master Ouyang Dongli. Li Xiuyuan would not use it unless he had to.
Seeing the crow's feathers exploding, Li Xiuyuan didn't even have to think about it.
The crow looked at the golden arrow in front of him again and again, and finally said helplessly: "As promised, you are not allowed to leave me alone!"
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "As long as you are not possessed by a demon, I will not abandon you."
"Okay, I give up!"
Under the flutter of the crow's wings, a golden arrow fell to the ground, and he sighed: "For the sake of you giving me so many treasures, I give this to you."
Five miles outside Gaoping Pass, there is the camp of the demon army.
When the spies came back, Chen Xueming, who was commanding an army of 50,000 men, reported back. Chen Xueming and several generals in the big tent all took a breath of air.
Vanguard General Wu Neng frowned and said, "Our speed is already very fast. Where did they get the news?"
A middle-aged general with a cold expression replied: "Even if they want to dig trenches, they will never be able to finish it if they don't have three days!"
Chen Xueming sighed: "Either one of us leaked the information, or they are afraid."
The Pioneer General smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. With General Chen in charge, can they still go to heaven?"
The vanguard general was tall and tall, with a pair of scary tiger eyes and extremely powerful. This guy was on the battlefield for the first time, and he couldn't wait to lead his men to attack the city gate.
Another older general glanced at him and sighed.
He turned around and said to Chen Xueming: "These three trenches are not easy to deal with. At least our siege vehicles cannot get through them!"
"Then let's spend a few days first to capture the positions outside the city. We can't rush this matter."
Chen Xueming shook his head. After all, he was different from Wu Neng, who was the vanguard general. This was a war. Fifty thousand troops lined up to attack the city. Was it going to kill people?
How can we let this guy give random orders?
If the three trenches cannot be captured and filled, how can the army launch a massive attack to Gaoping City?
At this time, he was a general, so he naturally could not tolerate any mistakes in command.
The older generals nodded and understood what Chen Xueming meant. They wanted to take down the outer positions first.
Otherwise, if you attack rashly and lose, it will not be a matter of one person, but it will affect the morale of the entire army.
When the vanguard general Wu Neng heard this, he chuckled and said, "Tomorrow, I will lead five thousand troops and take down the first trench first. Everything will be under the general's command."
Chen Xueming looked at him, nodded, and replied: "We are out here, so we have to be careful."
"Do you think they will attack at night?"
The satiated crow had nothing to do and analyzed the situation on the battlefield with Li Xiuyuan.
Since Li Xiuyuan promised not to abandon him, he felt that he should learn some skills from now on, otherwise, what if one day he suddenly transformed into a human?
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he stroked its feathers and smiled and said, "Yes, from now on, you have to learn to think, so that when you become a human being, you won't become an idiot."
Crow rolled his eyes at him: "Are Chu Feng and Hua Tianyu idiots?"
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and smiled: "There is another one, Jun Wuyu, too. His brother is smarter than him."
Crow shook his head, thought for a moment and asked, "Will those guys be angry if you call them idiots?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "Compared with the road to heaven, the battle in front of you is nothing."
Crow shrank his neck in fear: "Then I won't change my form for the time being."
