In the sky, a group of forest birds suddenly flapped their wings and fled in panic. The unknown beast made a rapid running sound in the depths of Feilong Forest.
"Be careful." The leader of the Demon Queen's three thousand dead soldiers, who was walking at the front, had a sudden look on his face.
Kuai Jian Ah Qi, who was beside him, raised his eyes and glanced lightly at the depths of the forest.
"Mi Lang, keep going forward." The Demon Queen also frowned, but had no intention of turning back. If you want to cross the river, the Feilong Forest in front of you is the place you must pass. Unless it means that these people have to take a detour of more than a hundred miles and go around from the other end.
But as time continues to drag on, Jin Chan's plan to escape from his shell will be in vain.
After listening to the Demon Queen's words, the leader called Mi Lang nodded and urged the three thousand dead soldiers to prepare to pass through the Feilong Forest in a guard formation.
"Ah Qi, this dynasty will never be destroyed. As long as it is here, whether it is Xu Buyi, Chang Xiaotang, Zuo Shiren, Yuan Song or those people, the old dynasty is still there, the orthodoxy is still there, want to start a new dynasty? Not so easy."
"Ah Qi, you don't know something. Once a new dynasty is established, these Central Plains people will form a rope, and then they will be strong for another hundred or two hundred years. At this time, if the will of the Central Plains people cannot be defeated, no matter what Whether it is Xu Buyi who is in charge or someone else who is in charge, there will be no chance in the future."
"It prospered and then declined. One of the reasons why I have always kept the old dynasty is because it is equivalent to keeping a dim lamp that slows down the rise of the people of the Central Plains."
The mute slave Ah Qi didn't speak, but listened carefully.
"Cangzhou has failed. I can only choose another princely state in this world. Ah Qi, you don't know, there are countless corrupt Ji people waiting for me and Long'er to take this orthodoxy and take control of the country."
"One day, Long'er will grow up. Ah Qi, please protect me and go back to your hometown to take a look. I haven't seen the Kelsang flower blooming for a long time..."
…
In front of the imperial capital, the fire gradually died down.
Xu Mu stood outside the city, raised his head, and watched Zuo Shiren leading the army to attack the city. Probably holding back a surge of anger, the allies at this time were even more ferocious.
Furthermore, as Xu Mu expected, the Demon Queen seemed to have left the imperial capital. The generals who defended the city were not very powerful, and they could not even see through many ordinary tactics to climb the city.
At this rate, the imperial capital will be destroyed in less than ten days.
"Master, someone is here to look for you." At this time, Yin Hu hurriedly came over, "Yan Tang... escaped from Muyun Prefecture."
"Escaped?" Xu Mu was stunned. Dongfang Jing left Muyunzhou, Yu Wen also left, and even Ma Yi left together.
Today, in Muyun Prefecture, there are only a few senior generals left to dispatch, and coupled with the weak military strength, it is inevitable that there will be gaps in insufficient defense.
"I heard that there are experts helping me."
"Killed?" Xu Mu frowned.
"There were no casualties, only two or three jailers fainted. I feel that Yan Tang was so hasty this time, something must have happened. I can't say it was Yuan Song who gave the order."
"Six Heroes, it's a pity that you don't want to be a staff member...bring him here."
Not long after, Yan Tang ran over in disgrace, and when he saw Xu Mu, he cried bitterly.
"The King of Shu forgives me. It is not an offense, but I have remembered something very important. I want to come to Cangzhou to inform the King of Shu."
The Allies' siege of the imperial capital was already known to the world, and Xu Mu no longer had any Tibetan troops. Otherwise, Yan Tang might not be able to find Xu Mu if he broke his leg.
"Brother Yan, is there something big going on for this dusty man?" Xu Mu smiled. If Yan Tang can't say anything nice, he will still be thrown into prison.
"Of course something happened... King Shu, I remembered it, and suddenly I remembered the origin of the Demon Queen."
With just one sentence, Xu Mu understood. This is in a hurry. If it is too late and the Demon Queen is destroyed, any information about the Demon Queen will be meaningless.
Yan Tang raised his eyelids and hurriedly continued to speak.
"In addition, my adoptive father said... there are 20,000 pairs of newly made armors in Laizhou, which are of excellent quality, and I want to give them to the King of Shu."
"Oh?" Xu Mu raised his eyebrows. Yuan Song was really willing to give up 20,000 pairs of new armor.
"King of Shu, don't worry, these are all carefully crafted armors. My adoptive father said that the king of Shu is a hero in the world. In this era of annihilation of six barbarians, he made unparalleled contributions. If there is no repayment, he will do it on behalf of the people of the world. Thank you King Shu."
"Brother Yan, speak human language." Xu Mu rubbed his forehead. He found that recently, he was becoming less and less interested in outsiders' rainbow farts.
Yan Tang coughed, "Twenty thousand pieces of armor, plus the background of the Demon Queen, in another year, please King Shu to deal with it, so that the great alliance of the world... will not attack the two states of Laiyan."
"One year."
To be honest, Yuan Song is still far away from Xishu and is not within Xu Mu's strategy at the moment. After destroying the Demon Queen, as he said before, he will divide Cangzhou with Zuo Shiren.
As for the South China Sea Alliance, the gains are actually greater. Not only was it able to collect the wealth of the imperial capital, but it also gained a reputation and was no longer a foreign army huddled in the South China Sea.
"King Shu, one year goes by very quickly." Yan Tang spoke anxiously, fearing that Xu Mu would not agree. The most worrying thing for Yuan Song's forces now is that the military front of the Alliance will continue to attack Laiyan and Laizhou after destroying Cangzhou.
"My adoptive father has already passed the imperial throne and demoted himself to the king of the state."
"Your adoptive father is really unlucky." Xu Mu only found it a little funny. As soon as he proclaimed himself emperor, he met the great alliance of the world.
But looking at it this way, Yuan Song, this old fox, is even more incredible. The purpose of lowering his attitude like this is to survive the eyes of the world's great alliance.
"In Western Shu, there is still a shortage of salt and iron. I heard that there are two iron mines in Yanzhou..."
"Ten ships." Yan Tang trembled, "I took care of this matter on behalf of my adoptive father."
"Twenty." Xu Mu shook his head, "You also know that I will have to convince the leader of the Zuo Alliance when the time comes. This matter will be difficult to handle."
"Twenty thousand new armors, twenty shiploads of salt and iron, plus the background of the Demon Queen..." Yan Tang felt like vomiting blood.
"If we can't reach an agreement, then Brother Yan should go back first. It just so happens that the leader of the Zuo Alliance discussed the affairs of Laiyan and Yanzhou yesterday -"
"Yes, yes." Yan Tang said in a trembling voice.
"Okay." Xu Mu smiled, "Since Brother Yan is so sincere, I, Xu Mu, will think of more ways to persuade the leader of the Zuo Alliance. After the Alliance captures Cangzhou, we will not move for the time being. However, you also said, There is only one year. After this year, I, Xu Mu, have no control over what happens."
Zuo Shiren hated Yuan Song deeply. One year is already the limit.
"In addition, your adoptive father may have to pay some more. Of course, it is for the left alliance leader."
"Don't worry, King Shu, I understand this."
If the Alliance sends troops to attack the two states of Laiyan, it will basically be impossible to defend them. Yuan Song has tried his best to survive.
"Within one month, the things must be sent to Xishu. Now, Brother Yan, you can speak. First, tell me the origin of the Demon Queen."
Destroying the Demon Queen and the Young Emperor is bound to appease the people of the Central Plains. Otherwise, there will still be many die-hard Ji people who regard the Tianxia Alliance as rebels.
The news brought by Yan Tang may be an opportunity.
