"Brother, come and catch me!" In the blur, a petite figure was mischievously jumping in front of him, teasing a tall, furry boy behind him.
"Brother, your body feels so comfortable.”The scene switched to the little girl hanging from the big boy's neck.
"I'm ignoring you. You don't even smile at me.”The little girl pouted angrily.
"That's great! I smiled at Xue 'er!”The little girl smiled through her tears, and the big boy pulled out a smile.
"Brother, you're so beautiful." The little girl leaned in front of the big boy and tiptoed hard to kiss the big boy's fluffy face.
"Brother, wake up. The sun is shining on your butt!”The little girl used a straw to scratch the big boy's nose.
"Big brother, wake up. You've been sleeping for a long time.”
A tickle came from his nose, causing Feng Xingtian to open his eyes with difficulty. What greeted his eyes was an unfamiliar place, and the person in front of him was not unfamiliar. It was Yan Yi, and she was scratching Feng Xingtian with her hair out of boredom.
"Big brother, you're awake! That's great!" Yan Yi saw that Feng Xingtian had woken up and hurriedly let go of her hair." Big Brother…why are you looking at Yi 'er like that?”Feng Xingtian's silent gaze made her feel very uneasy.
"Damn it, are we not dead?”Feng Xingtian quickly recovered.
" Big Brother-" Yan Yi refused to listen. This guy was swearing the moment he woke up! She explained," When Yi 'er woke up, she saw a lot of strange people. They looked so scary, but they were all very good. Maybe they were the people that big brother was looking for!”
"He…Forget it." Feng Xingtian stopped himself from cursing again." These beastmen are asking for a beating. They won't appear even if we find them and kill them. They have to torture us to make us feel better. Damn it!"”
Yan Yi was too lazy to correct him. Just as Feng Xingtian sat up and wanted to move around, the simple door opened, and a black, strong half-human, half-beast monster with a mane walked in.
"Child, you're recovering very quickly." The monster spoke, but it was in human language.
"Uncle, I want to ask, when did you find us?”Feng Xingtian was sure that they had been following them since a long time ago.
"Are you blaming us for not saving you earlier?”The orc understood what Feng Xingtian meant.
"Ha, how can I blame you? I just saw that you guys were quite friendly. Uncle, how should I address you?”Feng Xingtian got off the bed.
"You can call me Baglu, my dear friend.”The beastmen Bagru and Kindness.
"Feng Xingtian, it's a pleasure to meet you.”
@ Qi @ Feng Xingtian opened his arms. Baglu was stunned for a moment, but he also opened his arms. The two of them hugged each other. Baglu was more than two meters tall, even taller than Feng Xingtian.
@ Shu @"Child, it's time to go out and meet my clansmen.”Baglu held Feng Xingtian's hand.
Walking out of the door, Feng Xingtian found that this place was still a desert, but there were many plants. It was like a small village. Not long after, all the beastmen gathered. Feng Xingtian took a look and saw that there were nearly 1,000 people.
"Roqsa, Saruida!" Feng Xingtian said something strange. This was a language that did not belong to the three races.
Seeing him like this, Yan Yi's expression changed slightly.
"Roqsa, Saruida!" The orcs outside said the same thing. They crossed their hands and bent down slightly like Feng Xingtian.
"Child, you shouldn't be here. You're Kaludo's friend, right?”Bagru said in human language.
"Beastmen shouldn't succumb to fate.”Feng Xingtian wasn't surprised by his words.
"But my friend, why did you gather us here?”
Baglu's words rendered Feng Xingtian speechless. He had come to find the orcs partly because he was entrusted by Kaludo to gather them to strengthen his own strength. But what if he really brought them back? He still had to return to the Imperial Capital. He did not have the ambition of Kaludo, but now, the problem was right in front of him. He had to face it.
"I can only say that for the sake of our brothers, for our common destiny, and even for our own interests, we let the beastmen fight for us to defeat the beastmen. However, I'm not ashamed of thinking this way.”Feng Xingtian said in a clear voice," When I saw you, I felt a sense of closeness that I have never felt since I came to this world. I think my friends also feel the same. Even if we are not the same kind, this feeling cannot be separated. We all live in the corners that have been abandoned by the world. So, now, I can tell you-I want to fight side by side with you!”
Feng Xingtian's words made Yan Yi a little obsessed.
"Beastmen no longer want to fight, nor do they want to fight without ideals.”Bagru said calmly.
"Give me three days and I will give you your dreams.”Feng Xingtian said calmly.
"Alright, we believe you. Child, come with me.”Bagru said.
Bringing Feng Xingtian along, Yan Yi was sensible enough not to follow them. The two of them walked out of the village until they reached the desert.
"Child, did you see that? "This endless desert was once the most glorious place for the Beastmen. We built a glory here that could conquer the three races. Now, every grain of sand here represents the life of a Beastman. The Beastmen can no longer return to the past. Our hands can no longer hold weapons. This is the curse of the gods. The birth of the Beastmen represents death and plague. This is atonement. We can atone for the past fighting without ideals." To atone for the sins he had committed against the three clans.”Bagru said sadly.
"There is no curse that cannot be broken." Feng Xingtian was also a little sad. This was the race that he felt the closest to in the world.
"There is only one way." Baglu pondered for a long time and sighed." In the deepest part of the desert, there is the cursed eye of the gods. There, the most powerful weapon of the orcs is sealed-the Armor of the God of War! Back then, the strongest warrior of the Beastmen, Kunge. Bloodhoof was wearing it to lead the Orcs to challenge the gods and defeat the God Clan army. Finally, with the power of the gods, they sealed it forever and turned the prosperous Orc Kingdom into a desert of death. The Armor of the God of War was the source of the curse. For thousands of years, no Orc had been able to wear it.”
"I understand what you mean." Feng Xingtian looked into the distance." Kaludo has failed. The ideals that beastmen need include faith and strength.”
"I was right about you, my friend. The blood flowing in our bodies is trembling. It tells us from the moment we were born that beastmen should not be weak and perish in plagues and diseases.”
" Roar-" Baglu suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar. The earth-shaking roar stirred up a sandstorm. This was a challenge and unwillingness to fate!
"But why me?" Feng Xingtian was also infected.
"Because you are qualified. Humans are the spirits of all living things, but they have lost the lofty souls of their ancestors, the roars of the Titans, the pride of despising the gods! I can vaguely sense this from your body. The War God Armor is calling! The primitive beast blood in your body is boiling, and your proud soul is telling you that you must conquer everything!”
"Maybe. When Kaludo told me that he wanted to build a kingdom of his own, I didn't tell him that I wanted to destroy everything…Let me be quiet.”Feng Xingtian turned around and walked back to the village. He was very confused. Perhaps his decision to summon the beastmen was an expectation that he did not realize in his subconscious.
It had been two days since Kankula had occupied the fortress. He finally realized that something was wrong. The rations that the troops had brought had been used up.
Inside the fortress, he could not find even a grain of food. Other than empty tents and solid fortifications, he could not find anything else. The supply troops outside the pass had not arrived yet.
He had planned to capture the fortress, and the grain stored here would be enough for him to survive for a long time. Then, he would cooperate with the army outside the pass to destroy Long Qingying, and then he would go south. However, he didn't want to go out of the pass again, and he couldn't go south for the time being. In the end, he decided to burn the fortress down, but the fortress was full of hard rocks. He couldn't even burn it down.
"What is this Ye Mei doing?”Kankula was in a rage in the camp when a soldier sent him a battle report. When he heard it, he was even more furious.
Outside the fortress, there was a large number of soldiers of the Empire. There were about 200,000 to 300,000 of them. Kankula did not understand how the soldiers of the Empire managed to bypass Night Rose and reach the fortress. Now, he was surrounded.
However, Kankula still had a glimmer of hope. He still had 200,000 soldiers behind the dynasty's army. As long as they and the army in the fortress formed a pincer attack on the dynasty's army, victory would still belong to the orcs.
Kankula decided to hold on for another day. If the reinforcements did not arrive, they would charge out even if they had to die.
However, he did not know that the 200,000 reinforcements would not be able to come.
Fire Dance had just crossed Mount Gesa and rested for a while. Then, she rushed to the rear of the orcs day and night. The sad and angry Qing Ying Army had displayed their terrifying fighting power. Fire Dance had learned Long Qingying's tactics. Although Yang Chong was the commander of the army, Fire Dance was controlling his temper secretly. Tens of thousands of people successfully attacked the base of the orcs, burning all the food that the orcs had been unprepared for.
It was already winter, and there was no food. When the orcs were about to attack the Qing Ying Army, hundreds of thousands of imperial troops appeared in front of them. Two hundred thousand people were trapped, and some died or fled. They had problems protecting themselves, not to mention providing support to the orc main army in the fortress.
During this period of time, they did not see the demon army of more than 100,000. Ye Mei seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
After defeating the orcs in the rear, Huo Wu and Ren Qiangjun joined forces, and the army of the Imperium marched straight to Fengxia Pass and joined Long Qingying's main army. In this way, hundreds of thousands of troops of the Imperium's army surrounded the orcs who were short of food.
Kankula finally couldn't take it anymore. On the fifth day, he gave the order to break through.
Halfway through the gate, before the dynasty's army could launch an attack, the orc army was already in chaos. On both sides of the narrow wind canyon, the dynasty's army had appeared out of nowhere. They were raining rocks, kerosene, and arrows down on the orcs from the mountains on both sides of the canyon.
Caught off guard, the Beastmen hurriedly turned around to face the enemy. However, in the 100-meter-long canyon, the team was too crowded to launch a counterattack. As a result, the tens of thousands of Beastmen in the canyon were completely wiped out, and corpses once again filled the valley.
The orcs in front and behind finally got into formation to attack, and the dynasty army began to attack. The orcs couldn't take care of each other, so it was equivalent to opening the gate for nothing, giving the dynasty army a chance to attack.
The ambush in the pass was the reinforcement army that Liu Yuan had gathered behind the gate. Liu Yuan finally understood Long Qingying's intention. When the allied army of Demon Beasts and Monster Beasts had made Long Qingying lose her trust temporarily, they had lured the enemy into the pass and forced her to come out of the gate to support them. Then, they would take advantage of the lack of troops in the pass and wait for the enemy to come out. It was a perfect plan.
Unfortunately, Ye Mei had underestimated Long Qingying too much, or rather, she had relied on Huang Ming too much. When Ye Mei had used the " sow discord " tactic, Long Qingying had already investigated the demon spies lurking in the imperial army. Then, she had secretly sent the spies to Ye Mei. On the one hand, she had secretly sent most of the troops in the pass, namely the main force of the Clear Shadow Legion, to cross the Gesa Snow Mountain, which no one had expected. This strange troop had also brought the enemy a drastic change. Then, they would vacate the empty city and wait for the enemy to enter their pockets. Finally, they would bury an ambush behind the fortress to catch the thieves and attack the enemies inside the fortress.
The entire battle strategy was natural, and the core of the entire plan was Huang Ming. If he had not blindly advanced, the Magical Beast Army would not have been able to completely surround them, and the main army would not have been able to make a detour to the fortress. It could be said that both sides had won and lost with Huang Ming's wisdom.
Hundreds of thousands of people fought in the fortress until the second day. After the orcs left more than 200,000 corpses, only Kankula and less than 100,000 defeated soldiers fled in panic.
Corpses from both sides blocked the entire fortress. The army of the Imperium had started to clean up the battlefield. Long Qingying was the only one who stood on the high ground of the city wall, looking forward with deep sorrow.
"Qingying, what's wrong? Aren't you happy after winning the battle?”Huang Ming walked over with concern.
"Your Highness, we've lost." Long Qingying sighed.
"Defeated?" Huang Ming found that Long Qingying had been saying something he didn't understand these days.
"Did you notice that the enemy inside the pass has the corpse of a demon?”Long Qingying turned around and smiled bitterly.
"That's true. Will the demons come again?”Huang Ming thought for a moment. Indeed.
"She won't come again." Long Qingying looked at the east sadly.
"You…you mean Ye Mei has already brought the army back?”Huang Ming said in disbelief.
"Your Highness, count the casualties of us and the Beastmen. Think about the casualties of the demons.”
Hearing this, Huang Ming understood. Although they had won this time, it was only a miserable victory. The total number of casualties in the empire was almost as many as the orcs.
"That's not right. Since the Demon and Beast armies are allied, there's no reason for the Demons to abandon the Beastmen so early!”Huang Ming was puzzled again.
"You have to ask Ye Mei." Although Long Qingying said that, she knew that although she had gained the upper hand this time, she was only on par with Ye Mei. She had won because her army had successfully crossed Mount Gesa.
Ye Mei won because she had seen through Long Qingying's intention from the beginning. However, she chose to watch the fight from the sidelines. This was the seventh battle between humans and beasts. Both sides were badly hurt. The empire was fine, but the orcs couldn't do anything for the time being. Obviously, the demons benefited the most from this battle. They defeated both sides with only a few casualties.
"Long Shuai!" While Long Qingying was deep in thought, a thousand-man cavalry commander walked up to her and reported.
"What is it?" Huang Ming was very unhappy that there was still someone disturbing him at this time.
"When my soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, they found a letter nailed to the city wall with an arrow, saying that it was for Commander Long to personally open.”The Thousand Rider Commander held a letter in his hand.
Looking at the elegant handwriting on the envelope, Long Qingying immediately thought that it was Ye Mei.
As he expected, when Long Qingying opened the door, a delicate fragrance drifted out, and Ye Mei's charming figure appeared in front of him.
"Sister Long, do you like the gift I gave you? I hope you can catch that hateful and self-righteous big guy. It doesn't matter if you can't catch him. Next time, I'll help you. I couldn't meet my sister's reverse scale in person, and my heart ached to death. However, it's better for men to fight and kill. I hope that we sisters will never meet on the battlefield. Even if we meet, it doesn't matter. I will give in to my sister, hehe!”
"Alright, by the time you read this letter, I might already be thousands of miles away. I've helped you get rid of a big problem. Those big guys won't bother me for a few years. Remember to return this favor to me!”
There was a dark rose symbol on the bottom of the letter. After reading it, Long Qingying smiled. She slightly shook her hand, and the letter turned into a dancing white butterfly under Huang Ming's eyes.
"Nothing. The threat Kankula posed to us when he escaped.”Long Qingying smiled sweetly at Huang Ming.
"Go down, there are still many things to do!”Long Qingying left Huang Ming, who was still in a daze, and walked down happily.
