I am a hero in the rivers and lakes

Chapter 152
"What's going on? Why is the fighting power of the Zhenbei Army so weak? Has the court not resolved it after such a long time?"

"Master Shen, the concoction of a plant was sprinkled in the batch of grain and grass provided by the Han family. This concoction is produced in the seven thousand miles of southern Xinjiang. It is a kind of chronic poison, or it cannot be regarded as a poison. A kind of poison!"

"After eating, people will be unknowingly haggard and lack of energy. And if they eat too much, it will make people weaker!"

"It's not obvious on weekdays, but once you get excited or exert too much force, it will be exposed in an instant!"

Speaking of this, Lu Butou is also very helpless.After they reported that the Han family was a disciple of the Blood Clothes Sect, they immediately conducted a thorough inspection of the grain and grass, but found nothing wrong.

Ordinary sergeants don't have any symptoms of poisoning, and their lack of energy is normal. Even if they lack sleep, they will also lose energy, so it's hard for people to notice.

Until the most recent battle, the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army could not guarantee a long-lasting battle, and the problem was immediately exposed.Until the end, this was accidentally discovered by an experienced old doctor.

After all, this kind of thing is produced in the seven thousand miles of southern Xinjiang, where there are all kinds of weird things, who can say that they can identify them all.

The medicinal properties of this concoction will be hidden in the human body, and it will take at least one or two months to dissipate even after stopping use.

"Master Shen, under the long-term infusion of this kind of concoction, the muscles and bones of the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army seem to be as strong as before, but they are actually strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and cannot support a sustained outbreak at all!"

"The sudden invasion of the Yan tribe in the north, coupled with the inner response of the Blood Clothes Sect, it only took one day for the frontline Baiyu Pass to fall!"

"The next step is to treat it like a broken bamboo. Now Fangzhou is in danger, and most of Fangzhou is no longer safe!"

"So you came to inform me to let me go south?" Silently put down the battle report, Shen Kang didn't speak again, but stared straight at Lu Butou.

Qingyu Pass is the last line of defense in the front line of Fangzhou, and the distance from Duyang Pass to the south is almost a flat terrain.

Coincidentally, Wanjian Villa is within this range!

"Yes!" Nodding his head, Catcher Lu said with a wry smile, "To tell the truth, Master Shen, I received an urgent message when I came. The guard of Qingyu Pass had already fled without a fight. Get the order to retreat immediately!"

"Today's Qingyuguan is an empty city, only a few martial arts casual practitioners are still there, so it is impossible to defend it. The meaning of the imperial court is to put all their strength to deploy a defense line at Duyangguan!"

He came this time because he wanted Shen Kang to go to Qingyuguan to help defend the city.But now the guard of Qingyu Gate is fleeing without a fight, and the imperial support army cannot arrive in a short time, which directly disrupts the imperial court's defense plan.

With no time to spare, the imperial court can only quickly change its plan and abandon Qingyu Pass!
"Make every effort to deploy defense lines at Duyang Pass? What about the distance between Qingyu Pass and Duyang Pass?"

As soon as Shen Kang asked the words out of his mouth, Butou Lu fell silent and stopped talking.Shen Kang also immediately understood what he meant, which meant to give up this section completely.

Once Qingyuguan falls, it means that nearly one-third of Fangzhou will be directly exposed to the Yan clan's cavalry!

The imperial court chose to give up these places directly, and made every effort to deploy a defense line at Duyang Pass.In other words, nearly one-third of Fangzhou and tens of millions of people were directly abandoned.

With the murderous nature of the Yan clan's iron cavalry, how many of these common people will survive in the end!
"Is that what you decided? Just throw away all the people like this?"

"What can we do if we don't do this? The 60-kilometer northern army will guard the entire northern border. It is impossible to transfer all of them away. There are not many troops that can be drawn out!"

"We have already mobilized 15 Zhenbei troops before, and now they are also trapped in the quagmire, and it is difficult to get out! Inside Fangzhou, the Blood Clothes Sect suddenly launched an attack, and the court's troops were stretched for a while!"

"In order to keep Fangzhou, and even prevent other states from being affected, the imperial court can only choose strong men to cut off their wrists!"

"It's such a strong man who cut his wrists. Those casual cultivators in the Jianghu can stick to Qingyu Pass. Why can't you?"

"Do you think we are willing? What the imperial court should consider is the overall situation, not just showing off a moment of courage!"

Speaking of this, Butou Lu seemed very excited.He couldn't get in the way of the court's decision, but he could understand Shen Kang's mood very well.

He also doesn't want to abandon this place, once these places are lost, one can imagine what will happen to the people here.The Yan cavalry along the way had already told everyone with their actions what they would do.

Moreover, the Blood Clothes Sect spent so much energy laying out the bureau just for this final harvest, how could it be possible to put away the butcher's knife just like that!

But there is no way, what the imperial court needs to consider is the overall situation, and the decisions made must be responsible for more people!
"Master Shen, the Yan Clan's million-strong army will pulverize everything that stands in the way, and the Yan Clan's Sirius Warriors are also famous, and those casual cultivators may not be able to stop it for even an hour." !"

"And the imperial court's troops have no way to rush to Qingyu Pass in a short period of time. It's just that the section from Qingyu Pass to Duyang Pass is almost impossible to defend!"

"Investing a large number of troops in such a place can only do useless work. In front of millions of cavalry, it is like hitting a stone with an egg. On the contrary, it may make Duyangguan insufficient troops. At that time, not one state nor one place will be endangered!"

"Master Shen, come south with me, we can't hold Qingyu Pass, but we will definitely hold Duyang Pass!"

"Ding, millions of cavalry are heading south, and thousands of people are terrified. A great hero should serve the country and the people. System task, stick to Qingyuguan for at least ten days, reward chivalry points [-], and a diamond treasure chest!"

"If you reject the mission, two random martial arts will be deducted! If the mission fails, one random martial arts will be deducted!"

"System task reminder, the longer you stick to it, the more rewards you will get. If you can successfully defend it, you will be rewarded with a King's Treasure Chest if you block the front of the soldiers from the Qingyu Pass!"

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in his ear, causing Shen Kang to tremble suddenly.

"Want to stand firm at Qingyu Pass for ten days? Is this intended to kill him?" Even if it is impossible for a million iron cavalry to reach Qingyu Pass, it is definitely not something that can be stopped by one person.

But Shen Kang always had a little impulse in his heart, even if it was impossible, he had to try!

"I'm not going to leave!"

"Master Shen, why is this? It's meaningless for you to stay here!"

"Lu Butou, haven't the iron cavalry of the Yan clan arrived yet, and there are some loose cultivators in Qingyu Pass, and they haven't left yet. I am willing to go to Qingyu Pass, as long as I can stay!"

"Are you crazy? Qingyu Pass, you can't hold it!"

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!"

"Master Shen!" From Shen Kang's eyes, he saw firmness, and Lu Butou knew that no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to persuade him!
How could there be such a stupid person in this world!
Even if he is superb in martial arts, so what, not to mention the million iron cavalry of the Yan clan, even the Sirius Warriors can tear him to pieces.What's more, the Blood Clothes Cult does not allow stumbling blocks

!

The reason why he came here this time was to remind Shen Kang to withdraw to the south as soon as possible and not to make unnecessary sacrifices.The second is to hope that they can stick to Duyang Pass together, and with Shen Kang's martial arts, he will definitely be able to exert his greatest strength there.

But at this moment, he didn't know how to persuade him, and he didn't know whether he should persuade him or not.Perhaps in his heart, there is also an urge to stay!
