(801 Five hundred lonely soldiers hang in the tiger's mouth, and a silver pill determines people's hearts)

Next to the Tianchi of Dongdu Mountain, at the gate of the fortress, a young Taoist with a loyal face, wearing silver light armor and brown Taoist robes suddenly came.

He didn't bring any entourage, he landed directly under the city gate, clasped his hands into fists, saluted, and then showed a jade slip in his hand, and said loudly:

"I am Mu Yuan, the loyal military captain under the throne of Houtu Yun, and I am ordered by His Royal Highness the Cloud King to take over this city!"

The herald jade slip in his hand clearly transmitted spiritual fluctuations, which could not be faked.

They opened the door. Mu Yuan gave them a simple military salute, then looked around and walked straight to the middle tent.

As he walked, he dropped a sentence: "All the general banner, monks, and formation masters, all go to the middle tent to listen to my orders." ”

As soon as the order spread, these people did not dare not come. But there was a lot of talk along the way.

"Why are the Turks taking over? Aren't we from the Wind Country?"

Now it is the Houtu Empire that is supporting the stubborn resistance of the Wind Country, and the relationship between the two countries is basically that of master and servant.

But it was still very unpleasant for a lieutenant under the prince of the Thick Earth Empire to come and directly take over the authority of one of their Wind Country fortresses.

"The Wind King has died! Now it is the Cloud King who acts as the agent of the Wind Country. Who are they going to take over if they don't come?"

"Why is it the agent of the Cloud King, where is the prince?"

"Alas, the prince has not yet received the holy decree, and cannot inherit the prince for the time being. I don't know what's going on above. If this continues, the morale of the army is unstable. ”

When everyone walked into the tent, they saw that the captain under the Cloud Throne was already sitting on the highest seat in the front.

In terms of military rank, he is indeed the highest, and it is not too much to sit in that position.

But he is not from the Wind Country after all, but the foreign reinforcements, especially the garrison of the city guard, Wang Garrison, is still there, he can theoretically sit on the guest seat, but he should not sit on the main seat.

Wang Shoubei walked in, snorted dissatisfiedly, and sat down in the position of deputy leader.

His displeasure went completely unnoticed by the silver-armored young man. I only heard his person ask succinctly and simply: "How many defenders are there in the city, how many monks are there, what are the cultivations, and how many formation divisions are there?"

The deputy garrison Liu Qianren came out of the queue and calmly replied:

"At present, there are 551 battalion soldiers, 18 people above the small banner, including 15 monks, all of whom are building foundations and cultivating the foundation. Six-fold one, five-fold one, three-fold four, two-fold six, one-heavy three-person. One formation master. ”

The deputy garrison Liu Qianren is a careful person. Fortunately, with him, Wang Shoubei almost didn't have to care about anything. He couldn't answer the numbers.

But Liu Qianren was his subordinate, and now he was called by others to ask him, and Wang Shoubei felt a little unhappy in his heart.

"Where is the formation master?" Mu Yuan shouted hurriedly.

An old man snorted and walked out slowly. Before he could reach the middle, Mu Yuan had already ordered:

"Most of the formations in the city are broken, hurry up and repair them!"

"I'm afraid this lord doesn't know, right?" he replied slowly, "It's not that I don't want to fix it." Most of the formations in the city have been destroyed, and they can't ...... if they want to rest."

Before he finished speaking, Mu Yuan's empty light flashed, and a wooden box had fallen in front of him.

At the same time as the box landed, the lid of the box had been opened, revealing neatly stacked pieces of jade, and even dragon wood nails.

"The military situation is urgent, you are limited to repair the city wall protection formation within half an hour, otherwise the military law will deal with it!"

The formation master's face turned pale, and he picked up the box and went out in a panic.

At this time, the faces of everyone in the entire middle tent changed a little.

Since Mu Yuan asked the formation master to repair the formation in such a short time, there was only one possibility, and that was that the enemy's attack was already close at hand.

They had been sent here to take over the territory left behind by the enemy's defeat, and they had no intention of being counterattacked by the enemy.

How brave and good is the Wind King? How mighty is the army of 100,000 Wind Country? It is not that he has been killed by the dust people without leaving a single piece of armor.

Now that King Yun has slaughtered the dust people and gone north, is it just leaving them as cannon fodder to resist the revenge of the dust people?

Thinking of the spatial fluctuations in the night sky, they all thought, could it be the army of the Dust Tribesmen coming?

One of the vice presidents boldly asked, "Are they coming?"

Mu Yuan's face did not fluctuate, and he replied calmly: "The news from the front, the dust people appeared in the thorn valley at the southern foothills, and the number is unknown. But it should be above ten thousand. ”

His message came from Gou. Gou Zhu took a look around and summoned him. In the vast night, Gou Zhu could only see that the valley was crowded with dust people, and he couldn't estimate how many there were.

Of course, he could hide this news. But instead of letting these people be frightened when they see the surging tide of enemies, it is better to let them be prepared in advance.

"Ten thousand!"

Although they didn't shout, everyone was shocked. They only have more than 500 people here, and the opponent's strength is twenty times that of them, and this is only a lower limit.

10,000 is not the point in itself. The point is that with such a large army, it can't be 10,000 shirtless mortals. According to the usual configuration of the dust people, it is impossible to have a large number of war beasts and beast masters.

At that time, even if the defensive array was repaired, it would be useless. Under the bombardment of a large number of siege beasts, even if there is a formation, how long can it last?

Garrison Wang Bufan, who didn't plan to speak at all, stood up, he raised his eyebrows, raised his head, cleared his throat, and said angrily: "Captain Mu, I am the garrison Wang Bufan. The lower officials thought that this place could not be defended, and they should retreat to Fengdu. ”

Mu Yuan's eyes turned cold, stared at him and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"An army of tens of thousands of people in the dust clan must be equipped with several great beast masters, and there may even be more than ten great beast masters, and dozens or even hundreds of middle-level beast masters. We don't even have a single Venerable Purple Mansion, so we definitely can't keep it. ”

The Great Beast Master of the Dust Clan is about the same as the strength of the Middle-earth Monk Purple Mansion. But because a beast master can control a large number of war beasts, and war beasts have different characteristics, it is actually difficult to measure the strength.

Mu Yuan nodded: "You have a point. But the captain of this school is a monk of the Purple Mansion, and he will fight the enemy together with you when the time comes. In addition, there are five Purple Mansion monks, who will arrive soon. ”

The five Purple Mansion monks he mentioned were not monks transferred from Fengdu, but Gou Xu, Lin Mei'er, Nineteenth, Murong Qing and Tuliuxi.

Wang Bufan felt that his tongue was a little stiff. He originally wanted to prevaricate on the grounds that there were no Purple Mansion monks, and let them withdraw their troops quickly. He didn't expect this reason to be so simply obliterated.

The problem is that even if there are Purple Mansion monks to deal with those beast masters, tens of thousands of dust tribes and some large number of war beasts will definitely have to rely on them to fight hand-to-hand with only five hundred people. It will not be the monks who can fly around, but they will die.

"Even if there are monks, we are too few in number!" he hesitated before retorting. Since to stay is to die, and he will not stay when he dies.

"At least 10,000 reinforcements, they will arrive soon. ”

"Where's the reinforcements?"

"The Windchaser Tribe. ”

"Chasing the Wind, it's a joke! It's nice that these people don't fall over to the side of the Dust Clan, and just sit by and watch!"

Wang Bufan had already decided to give it a go at this time, because he found that words could not convince this stubborn captain at all. He jumped directly in front of Mu Yuan and said to all the people below:

"Brothers, I am the general of the Tianchi Fortress, according to the military law of the Wind Country, I have the final say here. When I say withdrawing troops, that is withdrawing troops. This Captain of the Turkey Kingdom is ...... at all."

He didn't finish his sentence, but he heard a pop, and a bright projectile flew from behind him, struck through the back of his head, and flew out of his eyebrows, leaving a fist-sized hole and blood splattering.

The man's eyes glazed and he fell straight down. Mu Yuan's tall and heavy figure stood in front of everyone with a backlight.

The silver pill that had just pierced through Wang Bufan was still suspended in the air, like an eye, staring at the next target.

"The garrison king is extraordinary, retreating before the battle, shaking the morale of the army, and has been dealt with by military law!" his gaze swept over everyone present, "Do you have anything else to say?"
