Text Chapter 294: Spinning the Universe

"His Highness declares that all the people will enter the city immediately, and the city gate will be closed after sunset. Without His Highness's order, the city gate will never be opened until the crisis is resolved."

Standing on the city wall with a long knife in his hand, Zhang Wei yelled loudly at the people below the city.

Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, and Chu Huaimian stood aside, with endless helplessness written on their faces.

"As a general of the empire, it's really a shame if you can't hold on." Feng Jixing clenched his fists tightly, his face full of anger.

Chu Huaimian said: "The enemy is strong and we are weak. There is no way to do it. I just don't know when Qihai City and Muyu City will send troops. As long as they send troops, we should cooperate internally and externally, and we will definitely defeat the so-called volunteer soldiers."

Feng Jixing looked at Lin Muyu and asked, "Ah Yu, do you want to summon your gentian battalion to Lanyan City?"

"No need."

Lin Muyu shook his head and said, "I have already sent people to report to the Longdan Camp, so that they can't hold out just like us. Longyan Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and even a million troops can't take it down in a short time. Longyan Mountain can be used as a surprise soldier, and the Longdan Battalion can also cooperate with us if needed."

Feng Jixing clapped his hands and said with a light smile, "That's all right. I've seen Ah Yu's gentian battalion before. Its combat power is terrifying and its equipment is the best in the imperial army. To be honest, if the volunteer soldiers are lower than If 150,000 people come to besiege the city, we can open the city gate and go out to fight, the chance of winning is more than 70%."

"What if it's more than 200,000." Chu Huaimian asked with a smile.

Feng Jixing's expression darkened: "Then we can only hold on, the disparity in strength is too great, going out of the city is nothing but death, not to mention that the opponent has a god-level powerhouse and nearly ten sanctuary-level powerhouses."

Lin Muyu stretched out his hand to sweep away the dust on the battlements, and the place where his palm touched was icy cold, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and said, "I don't know how your Majesty is doing in Fairy Lake, but there is no news at all. There are so many feather books, can't even send one back?"

Feng Jixing frowned: "I hope His Majesty can turn the danger into good luck."

But turning bad luck into good luck, if it is a serious disaster, how to resolve it.

...

In the middle of the night, Chu Huaimian rode into the darkness of Tongtian Street, and soon stopped in front of the Shenhou Mansion. After getting off his horse, he looked at the lonely iron gate, hesitated, stepped forward and lightly Lightly buckle.

"Who is it?" The guard's voice came from inside.

"The commander of the Flying Battalion, Chu Huaimian, pays his respects to Miss Zengxiang."

The guard immediately sneered and said, "So it's the famous General Chu Huaimian. Didn't you say that you will never see my lady again?"

"I don't see you, I just ask Miss to talk to someone from Chu through the door."

"Hmph, wait a moment."

"Thank you."

Not long after, Zeng Xiang's soft voice came from the other side of the iron gate: "Master Chu, I don't know what's the matter with the late night visit."

Chu Huaimian clasped his fists and said, "Miss, Cangnan Province and Dixing Province have fallen one after another. Lanyan City is isolated and helpless. Miss Zengxiang is the daughter of Shenhou, and Ji Yao and Lin Yu are both Shenhou Zengyi. All the former generals, I believe they will not embarrass the young lady, and ask the young lady to leave the city immediately and go to the province of Tianshu to look for Shenhou, for safety."

Zeng Xiang smiled: "Lord Chu, Zeng Xiang has his own discretion, thank you for your concern, I will make my own decision whether to go or stay."

Chu Huai became anxious, and gritted his teeth: "Xiangxiang, you have to go now, the Lingnan army will approach the city at any time, if you don't go now, I'm afraid there will be no chance."

"Huai Mian..." Zeng Xiang called softly, and said, "Didn't you say that you want to meet Xiangxiang in the rivers and lakes? If Xiangxiang goes here, you won't be able to see each other. You go, I won't Let's go, if you die in battle, I will go with you."

Chu Huaimin's body trembled, his eyes were bloodshot: "Xiangxiang, you are crazy."

There was no more sound from inside the door.

Chu Huaimian stood outside the door for more than an hour, then led the horse away dejectedly.

...

In the early morning of the next day, the 30,000 forbidden troops and the 17,000 flying cavalry battalion had all entered Lanyan City, stationed in the barracks around the four gates, which made Lanyan City suddenly lively, but the people were all closed. With their accounts closed, everyone lives in trepidation. They don't know what will greet them in the next moment, whether it is death or new life.

In the early morning, another heavy fog shrouded Lanyan City in mist.

Wisps of dew slowly flowed down from Lin Muyu's armor. He stood guard on the wall of the north gate of Lanyan City. He didn't close his eyes all night, and his expression looked quite tired.

"Ah Yu, go to sleep for a while." Feng Jixing frowned and said, "Look at how haggard you look, if His Highness sees you like this, I don't know how distressed it will be."

Lin Muyu smiled and shook his head: "Can't sleep...Could it be that Brother Feng, can you fall asleep?"

"I can't..." Feng Jixing smiled sadly and said, "This may be our last battle."

"Have you still not received the feather book from His Majesty Fairy Lake?"

"No, not one."

"Alas..." Lin Muyu sighed, pulled out the Dragon Spirit Sword, gently wiped the dew on the blade with a white cloth, and said, "Brother Feng, are you afraid?"

"Afraid."

Feng Jixing smiled: "There is nothing to be afraid of, I am a soldier of the Empire, and it is my honor to die for the Empire, and... Heroes come out of troubled times, don't you think this is our chance, Ayu? "

"I don't think so." Lin Muyu shook his head and said, "I'm very afraid. I'm afraid of losing everyone and everything I care about. I'm afraid of losing Xiaoyin, Xiaoxi, and all of you. If I could choose, I'd rather choose Obscurity, and I don’t want to choose the glory forged with blood.”

"Perhaps you are right."

Feng continued to sit next to Lin Muyu, took out a wine gourd from beside him, gulped down a mouthful of spirits, and said with a smile: "But this is life, the more you want to escape all these wars, the more you can't escape , Ayu, you hate killing, but you have to face everything in front of you, in this battle, your hands and mine will definitely be stained with blood, just wait and see."

At this moment, there was a sudden "pop" sound in the air, and a letter bird quickly landed on Feng Jixing's shoulder. He hurriedly took out the letter box, glanced at him, his face was full of astonishment, and said, "So quickly!" …The heavy cavalry of the Volunteer Army is less than 300 miles away from Lanyan City, and they will approach the city before sunset today.”

"Oh shit……"

Lin Muyu put the long sword back into its sheath, and said calmly: "Are they so eager to destroy Lanyan City?"

Feng Jixing looked indifferent, and said: "Zhang Wei, pass down the order, the whole city is on alert, and will start preparing for the battle in the afternoon. In addition, have the Tianchong Legion of Qihai City come back?"

Zhang Wei nodded: "I'll be there in an hour."

"Ah That's good."

...

Not long after, there was the sound of horseshoes in the mist, and a commander-level general came to the city with a long knife. It was the number one warrior of the empire, Du Hai, and behind him were densely packed shield-bearing soldiers, all of whom were from the Tianchong Legion. In addition, there is an endless stream of food and grass.

"Open the city gate." Du Hai said loudly.

Feng Jixing stood on the city wall and said loudly: "General Du Hai, how many people have you brought back?"

Du Hai looked up and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is Commander Feng. The Tianchong Army is not as good as before. Nearly 10,000 people were lost in Zhenyao Pass, and another 50,000 people were taken away by His Majesty. Now there are only 30,000 people." Infantry and archers have arrived."

Feng Jixing nodded: "Well, 30,000 is fine, come into the city, the flying cavalry battalion guards the south gate, the forbidden army guards the north gate and east gate, and the Tianchong army guards the west gate, what does the general think?"

"Thank you, I will lead the brothers to Simon right now."

"Um."

Du Hai is a straightforward man. Although his military rank is higher than that of Feng Jixing, he is able to defend according to Feng Jixing's orders, so he is considered a good general. Moreover, the volunteer soldiers are coming fiercely, and defections and surrenders are everywhere in the empire. The fact that Du Hai was able to return to Lanyan City to assist in the defense at this time was enough to prove his loyalty.

Watching the Tianchong army enter the city one after another, Lin Muyu also stood up slowly, raised the blade and said: "Wei Qiu, how is the situation in the Eagle's Nest Camp?"

Wei Chou clasped his fists and said, "The 724 brothers are all on the north city wall, waiting to be dispatched by the commander at any time."

"That's good, all staff are equipped with war bows, and once the volunteers come into range, just shoot and kill them."

"Yes, this subordinate understands."

...

Near noon, the sun pierced through the clouds and dispelled the fog, and the footsteps of the Lingnan army were getting closer and closer.

There are more and more letter birds flying around in the sky, and each news makes people feel more and more chilled in their hearts.

Lin Yu led an army of 100,000 to leave Earth Star Province and has entered Lingbei Province and will arrive soon.

In the direction of Cangnan Province, Ji Yao, Marshal of the Volunteer Allied Forces, swarmed with 250,000 troops. With Long Qianlin as the vanguard, he successively conquered 17 cities between Lanyan City and Wugu City, and will arrive at the city within three hours. .

Near the Qinling Mountains, Lingnan soldiers entered Lingbei again.

In the direction of Fairy Lake, there is no news.

The four generals Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Chu Huaimian, and Du Hai are in charge of guarding the city. Qin Lei leads the Yulin Army to guard the Zetian Palace, and the Zhenguo General Ling Nantian supervises the battle. The entire Lanyan City is on the verge of breaking out.

...

At this moment, Tianshu Province, Fairy Lake.

The water of the lake has been stained red with blood. There are countless floating corpses on the lake. Most of the corpses have begun to rot and bloat. Flowing for hundreds of miles, the entire Fairy Lake was dead silent.

In the silt by the lake, there were messy footprints. One person fell deep into the silt in the shallow water. The water plants wrapped around his swollen neck. Through the water, he could still see his round eyes full of unwillingness and anger. His palm It was in the shape of claws, with cracked nails. He had fought and killed before his death, but was unable to do what he wanted, so he was drowned alive.

It doesn't matter how he was the only one in his lifetime, how Shunchang turned against him, how he was ranked among the nine, and turned the world around.

After death, it's just a cold corpse,
