After waiting for a long time, Leng Shi did not show up, but a copy of Linyang Daily did. Lin Qing was stunned for a long time before throwing the newspaper on the table, frowning and saying, "Shit luck!"
After letting out a sigh of relief, Lin Qing looked at Shen Yu and asked, "General Shen, is Yun Yao really as powerful as the newspapers say?"
"There should be some exaggeration. Things like "one sword strikes, ghosts and gods are frightened" should not exist." Shen Yu said, "But Miao Buqi did die at his hands."
Lin Qing nodded. He just wanted to get a positive answer from him. He also knew in his heart that this matter was most likely true.
He was a general leading the troops and had extremely wide sources of information. A few days ago, the Qinglan Sword Sect suddenly announced the closure of the sect. These two things confirmed that the Qinglan Sword Saint was most likely defeated by this Yun Yao.
and.
Lin Qing also knew that the demon was completely different after awakening his magical powers. Those weird magical powers were hard to guard against, so it was normal for the Sword Saint to lose.
But when he thought about the fact that the other side had another Grandmaster who was comparable to the Qinglan Sword Saint, Lin Qing had a headache. After careful calculation, Leng Shiyi had at least six Heavenly Demons! The confidence that the 300,000-man army brought to Lin Qing was suddenly replaced by a sense of powerlessness. Why didn't they have any more powerful Heavenly Demons? The loss of the first battle was a huge blow to morale.
Lin Qing looked at Shen Yu again: "General Shen, if Yun Yao attacks, are you sure you can deal with her with your magical powers?"
"With 30,000 archers, I am not afraid of anyone in a head-on confrontation." Shen Yu said, but then he looked at Lin Qing, "Marshal, however, my personal martial arts skills are not good enough. I beg the Marshal to at least send a master to protect my safety and prevent Leng Shi from sending people to assassinate me."
Lin Qing nodded: "Master Dou, you will be the one to protect General Shen!"
"Marshal, if Yun Yao attacks, I'm afraid I can't protect General Shen by myself." Grandmaster Dou Xiu looked at the marshal in embarrassment and evaded the question.
Yun Yao’s fighting power was too terrifying. He killed three masters in the first battle. With such fighting power, he felt that he was unable to deal with it.
It is not easy to cultivate to the level of a Grandmaster. He came here to gain resources for the sect and does not want to die here.
The Grand Master had no sense of belonging to the imperial court.
Without a sect, he can still live freely, but if he loses his life, he will lose everything.
Lin Qing looked at another master, Shi Ji.
Shi Ji didn't say anything either.
Lin Qing sighed secretly. When did an army of 300,000 men find itself in a dilemma?
"Do you have any good strategies to repel the enemy?" Lin Qing looked around at everyone with his spirits lifted.
"Marshal, I think we should quickly send troops to Linyang to cut off Leng Shi's retreat." A deputy general stood up, "Why did Leng Shi flee from Linyang City? He was afraid that he would be blocked by our 300,000 troops in Linyang City. In this case, we should move forward step by step, nibble away at Leng Shi's territory step by step, and force him to fight us. We have the upper hand, why bother fighting him?"
"Leng Shi has at least six demons around him. What should we do if he continues to disrupt Chongming Kingdom?" Lin Qing asked. This is how war works. Questions are raised step by step, and then everyone discusses and comes up with the best solution.
"Leave it to the court." Another deputy general stood up. He glanced at Shen Yu and said, "The two prime ministers are also demons. They will not let Leng Shi continue to become powerful..."
As more and more of the alien warriors' magical powers are exposed, no one believes in the story of the great war between gods and immortals anymore. People would rather believe that all the alien warriors are demons.
"Report!"
The herald opened the door and knelt on one knee, "Marshal, urgent news from the capital."
"Present it." Lin Qing said.
The messenger stood up, took two quick steps, and handed the letter to Lin Qing with both hands.
Lin Qing unfolded it and looked at it, his expression suddenly changed: "Prime Minister Shi is dead?"
"The prime minister is dead. Who did it?" There was a lot of discussion in the tent.
Shen Yu subconsciously opened his personal panel.
As expected.
The name of Shi Pingchuan has disappeared, and the tenth person added is Xiang Li, the Earth Star under Duger.
Lin Qing looked around at everyone and said, "Shi Pingchuan and the Fourth Prince launched a coup yesterday, attacked the Right Prime Minister's Mansion at night, and the Jingji Camp besieged the Imperial Palace to force His Majesty to abdicate. The Right Prime Minister Pei Maer used his magical powers to incite the Jingji Camp to rebel, single-handedly killed Shi Pingchuan, fought against six great masters, killed three and injured three, and captured the Fourth Prince Gu Shiming alive in the Qinzheng Hall. Countless officials in the court were killed and injured..."
Hiss! Inside the tent, everyone took a deep breath, all of them were shocked by this sudden change.
For a long while.
A deputy general said, "Marshal, something has happened in the capital. I'm afraid the army's logistics will not be able to supply them. What should we do?"
"How long can the army's food and grass last?" Lin Qing asked.
"Jiang Yan, Zhang Ting." Lin Qing stood up and looked at the two deputy generals in the tent.
"Here." The two deputy generals stood up quickly.
"You two will each lead 100,000 soldiers, divided into two groups, to capture the two cities of Linjiang and Jiangbei. After taking the cities, the two armies will join forces to capture Linyang." Lin Qing said.
"Yes, we obey the Marshal's order." The two men clasped their fists and accepted the order.
"The rest of the generals, form a defensive formation and be ready for battle." Lin Qing said, "All scouts in the army will be dispatched to closely monitor the latest movements of Leng Shi's army."
"Yes." Everyone obeyed.
"Master Dou, Master Shi, please protect General Shen to his safety." Lin Qing looked at the two masters in the camp and gave them instructions.
"Yes." The two leaders accepted the order.
"General Shen, you must dispatch 30,000 archers to guard day and night to prevent Leng Shi from suddenly attacking the camp..."
…
Military orders were given out in an orderly manner.
The changes in the capital made Lin Qing realize that this war with the participation of the demons would be completely different from the previous ones, so he naturally chose to be on the defensive.
What's more.
A few days ago, the 300,000-strong army of Chu also headed for Chongming State, and could break through the border at any time. Shi Pingchuan had never cleared out the demons in Chu State, so it was impossible that there were no demons in the army.
This time, Chongming Kingdom was really in danger.
…
"Shi Pingchuan is dead. He was such a waste!"
Duger's information arrived almost at the same time as Lin Qing. He snorted with disdain, his tone full of sarcasm. He had taken over the prime minister's body at the beginning, forcing so many alien warriors to flee far away, but in the end he ended up like this. It was so embarrassing.
Zhang Yizi felt relieved that he had withdrawn in time and did not follow Shi Pingchuan, otherwise, he would not have been able to escape this time.
The fighting power displayed by Pei Maer was terrifying.
"I have long seen that Shi Pingchuan is a man of few years. I thought he would die at the hands of the demon star, but I didn't expect him to die at the hands of Pei Maer. It's hard to predict what will happen in this world." The Imperial Master sighed, then looked at Du Ge and said, "Emperor Master, the civil unrest in Chongming is of great benefit to us. I'm afraid Lin Qing will be in a dilemma. It turns out that destiny is on our side."
"The destiny is on our side." Doug smiled and showed the information in his hand, "Pei Maer fought against six masters and Shi Pingchuan who ranked third alone, and he actually won. His fighting ability is not much inferior to Yun Yao. What do you think his key words are? Strategy cannot have such fighting ability..."
Zhang Yizhi shook his head: "I can't tell."
"Could it be chaos?" Doug connected everything together, and the key word that was often attached to him by others jumped out of his mind.
From the beginning when Gu Shiming asked him to help disrupt the Chongming Kingdom, to later when Pei Maer jumped to work under Emperor Chongming, every step of his plan was to make the Chongming Kingdom more chaotic, and chaos was precisely the keyword for having strong combat effectiveness.
The most important thing is, if Pei Maer's keyword is really chaos, then all the alien warriors in Chongming Kingdom are actually helping him to improve his attributes.
This also explains why he surpassed Shi Pingchuan and became the second for no reason.
No matter how powerful Shi Pingchuan's keywords are, they can never beat a chaotic keyword that ranks higher than his and has stronger attributes.
In the history of Qiyuan Star, chaos is the most powerful keyword. Whether in a simulation field or on an alien battlefield, once exposed, everyone will target you.
after all.
This keyword becomes more powerful in the later stages.
"It's very likely." Gao Ming glanced at Du Ge and frowned slightly. "Brother Du, if Pei Maer's keyword is really chaotic, without the help of calming keywords, I'm afraid even I can't take him down."
"Yes!" Ge Zong agreed, "The chaos is too strong. No one can remain rational in the face of chaos."
"The old woman who restrained our skills is dead. Otherwise, her skills should be able to restrain the chaos." Xiang Li said.
"She originally belonged to Pei Maer. Do you still want her to turn around and deal with Pei Maer?" Ge Zong rolled his eyes at him and said, "Perhaps Pei Maer deliberately let her out to die."
