"Boom!"
In the distance, a mushroom cloud soared into the sky, and the ground shook intensely. That was none other than the light emitted by the regular twenty-five kilogram magic crystal cannons of the empire. The magic crystal reserves of the Winged Ones that Shallow Wind used were no more than ten kilograms at most, and the purity of the magic crystal cannons was far inferior to the magic crystal cannons of the empire.
"That's …"
Situ Sen rubbed his eyes and said, "Why did our Magic Crystal Cannons appear in the northwest? What are those densely packed flames on the ground? They're really fast …"
Lin Muyu smiled playfully, "General Sen, do you remember the magic crystal cannon that was lost in the Longdan Army Camp three days ago?"
"I knew it!"
Situ Sen couldn't help laughing. He clenched his fists and said, "How could such a heavy magic crystal cannon be lost in the strict control of the Longdan Army Camp? It was arranged there by His Majesty. But His Majesty didn't tell me what those dense things on the ground are."
"Brother, don't ask." Situ Xue squinted her eyes and looked down the city wall, saying, "It's the flaming oxen … It's our birthday gift to Feng Ning 'er. The brocade on the flaming oxen hides dense black beech powder. After being ignited, it can drive the oxen to run crazily. His Majesty used the legendary flaming oxen array!"
Lin Muyu nodded and said, "Whether Wei Chou can break QianFeng's Qiankun Battle Formation or not depends on whether this flaming oxen array works."
"Yes!"
…
At the foot of the city wall, the battle drums thundered. However, a group of armored demons were dumbfounded as they looked at the direction behind them in a daze. At the same time, they saw a fire coming towards them. It was a herd of oxen wrapped in burning brocade. Oxen were afraid of fire. As the fire on their bodies grew fiercer, they became more and more afraid. When they became mad, they would ignore everything. Additionally, they were frightened by the magic crystal cannons that Lin Muyu had set in the wilderness. Therefore, all of them ran towards the armored demon corps at once.
"It's oxen!"
In the crowd, Lian Zhao raised her long sword and shouted, "Shoot the spear, kill these crazy oxen!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
In the night sky, thousands of iron spears shot out and killed the fire bulls. However, the accuracy of the Armor Demons was poor to begin with, not to mention that there were as many as 20,000 bulls in the herd. It was useless to kill hundreds of them with the spears. All the Armor Demons were dumbfounded and hurriedly used their shields to defend in front of them.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
The flaming oxen rapidly broke through the crowd of armored demons, causing a strong burning smell. The flaming black beech powder sputtered in all directions. When it fell on the armor of the armored demons, it immediately caught fire. The hard armor and wings of the armored demons were highly flammable. In the blink of an eye, the flames spread out one by one, causing the roars and screams of the armored demons to be heard everywhere.
"Advance in formation, don't let them retreat. Prepare the arrow boxes and shoot!" Wei Chou yelled from the crowd in the Longdan Army Camp.
In the Eight Formation Diagram, boxes of arrows were pushed out and shot at the Armor Demons in the distance who were in chaos. Suddenly, the 60,000 Armor Demons were attacked from the front and back and were defeated!
…
"We won! We won! "Situ Xue was very excited.
"Yes, we won."
Lin Muyu's eyes were indifferent.
"Why? Is Your Highness not happy that we won?" Situ Xue was stunned.
"It was just a small victory." Lin Muyu said seriously, "But QianFeng and Dong Xie still have nearly 200,000 armored demons. We definitely can't resist them. Send my order, prepare to withdraw from Heaven Connect City and retreat to Yanming County through the path in the south of the city."
"We … we don't want Heaven Connect City anymore?" Situ Sen was shocked, "We exchanged it with Feng Ning 'er!"
"Don't worry, Heaven Connect City will always be ours." Lin Muyu's eyes were stern, "Send my order, we must withdraw from Heaven Connect City within four hours. All the Magic Crystal Cannons must be piled up in the city and not moved."
"Four hours …" Fengxi said, "We really can't transport any Magic Crystal Cannons within four hours. Are we going to leave all these Magic Crystal Cannons to QianFeng?"
Lin Muyu said, "Leave them to him. Let these Magic Crystal Cannons be buried with QianFeng."
At this moment, the coldness in Lin Muyu's eyes made everyone shudder. Situ Sen, Situ Xue and the others finally understood why Lin Muyu ordered to evacuate the people in the city after entering Heaven Connect City. It turned out that he had long planned to use Heaven Connect City as a graveyard for the Devil Race, and the bait was the 100 heavy Magic Crystal Cannons that could not be transported in the city!
And all of this had already been completed by Wei Chou's subordinates. There were tens of thousands of magic crystal cannons buried densely in the city, which was almost the sum of the magic crystal cannons forged by the imperial weapons department in Lanyan City over the past two months. This was simply a crazy gamble! If QianFeng did not fall into the trap, it meant that these Magic Crystal Cannons and shells would be handed over to the Devil Race.
However, Lin Muyu was very sure that QianFeng would fall into the trap. The Devil Race had been restrained by the Magic Crystal Cannons for too long. He could imagine that QianFeng's desire for the Magic Crystal Cannons was just like his desire to see Qin Yin again. He could give up everything and lose his mind.
…
Outside the city, the 60,000 Armored Demons were defeated, but the sound of war drums in the distance was very orderly. The second attack of the QianFeng Army was about to come. After Wei Chou gave the order, the Longdan Army Camp outside the city took the lead to retreat. Inside the city, under the command of Situ Sen and Situ Xue, all the soldiers and the remaining people evacuated one after another.
In the sound of hooves, a bird gently jumped on Lin Muyu's shoulder. It was a few green swans that were gradually growing wings. It seemed to be very attached to its owner and did not want to leave.
"Ah Xue, take Qingyu and Taxue away first. I'll come to you after blowing up Heaven Connect City. Remember, we'll meet in Yanming Prefecture."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Situ Xue carefully held the green swans, gently stroked their feathers, and said with a smile, "Qingyu, you have to leave your master for a while. Don't worry, he'll be fine."
"Okay, let's go!"
"Yes!"
Everyone gradually disappeared into the night. Lin Muyu lifted her hand and tore off the golden King's Cloak on her body. She changed into a set of nocturnal clothes. With a leap, she landed on the roof of the Sacred Temple near the square of Skyconnect City's northern city gate. She lay beside the chimney and retracted the power in her body, quietly watching everything that was happening in the distance.
…
As expected, the Devil Race did not chase after the Longdan Army Camp. Because they were afraid of being ambushed, QianFeng used the army cautiously and stopped outside the city. Looking at the intact Magic Crystal Cannons on the city wall, he could not help but feel happy. After stopping the warhorse, he said, "Lian Xiao, lead 100 people into the city and check if there's an ambush."
"Yes!"
Lian Xiao rode away and returned after a while, saying, "Marshal, the people in the Longdan Army Camp have already withdrawn, and most of the Magic Crystal Cannons have not been taken away. I have counted, there are at least 100 cannons, but the boxes containing the Magic Crystal Cannons are empty."
"Really?" QianFeng nodded and thought for a while, saying, "Lin Muyu is not a generous person. She actually left me 100 intact Magic Crystal Cannons … Humph, she also took away all the cannons. We only have heavy cannons but no cannons. It's like having a pot but no rice. It's of no help at all …"
"Then, what should we do?"
"The Longdan Army Camp will come back at any time. Lian Xiao, lead the Armor Demon Legion into the city and move away all the Magic Crystal Cannons as fast as possible. Leave none behind!"
"Yes!"
A military counselor on the side cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Marshal, Lin Muyu is full of tricks, but Marshal is priceless. I think Marshal should lead the Command Camp outside the city."
"Hmm …" QianFeng nodded slightly, "Lian Xiao, in order to avoid trouble, move quickly. We must move all the Magic Crystal Cannons in two hours."
"Yes, Marshal. All the Armor Demons, follow me!"
Lian Xiao waved his sword and led the Armor Demons into the city like a tide. The Magic Crystal Cannons were too heavy. Humans used multi-wheeled chariots to transport them, but the Armor Demons had to transport them with their own bodies. It was obviously useless if there were fewer people.
…
Beside the chimney of the Sanctum Level, Lin Muyu's figure almost merged with the darkness of the night. Even the Winged Ones patrolling in the air did not notice her at all.
Coldly watching the Armor Demons pouring in from the four gates of the north city, Zhang Tie calculated the number of them. However, when there were no more Armor Demons pouring in from outside the city, it was time to take action. Lianzhao led nearly 100,000 Armor Demons into the city and started to move the Magic Crystal Cannons. However, they didn't know that this place had become their burial ground.
"Hum!"
A ball of purple lightning blazed in her palm. This had already attracted the attention of the Winged Ones in the air, but it was too late. In just three seconds, this ball of lightning energy was powerful enough to detonate the Magic Crystal Cannons!
"Go!"
Lin Muyu's eyes were covered with a golden light, and she had already entered her Divine Transformation state. The Thunderball in her palm rushed towards the North City Gate with a bolt of lightning, and exploded with a loud bang. The two Magical Crystal Cannons buried in the ground also exploded rapidly, and a mushroom cloud rose into the sky. The two consecutive explosions were like a series of cannons raging in the city, and the thick city walls were turned into dust. This city that had thousands of years of history had become a victim of the war just like that.
"Crack!"
Ignoring the Armor Demons' screams, Lin Muyu stepped back into the Space Wall. She quickly shuttled to the south of the city and condensed another Thunder Ball. With the two-pronged attack, it was like catching a turtle in a jar. The Armor Demon army in the city was in despair. Except for those who jumped down from the city wall without hesitation, the rest were all killed.
On the city wall, Lian Xiao trembled all over. Looking at the constantly flying lightning in the city, his heart was filled with sadness.
"Madam, let's go!" A guard on the side said anxiously. "If we jump down from the city now, we can still escape. Their Magic Crystal Cannons are only buried in the city!"
"No need …"
Lian Xiao's originally delicate face was filled with vicissitudes. He said, "I didn't expect … that I, Lian Xiao, would follow in the footsteps of Marshal Lei Chong and lose nearly a hundred thousand elite Armor Demons. How can I face His Majesty? Alas … see you in the next life!"
"Clang!"
The guard did not even have time to stop the sword. Lian Xiao's neck was cut open by himself. Blood gushed out. He threw away the sword and covered his neck. Howling, he curled up on the bricks of the city wall and died in the blink of an eye.
A famous general of the Demon Clan, Lian Xiao, had committed suicide!
