The system came a hundred years earlier, I kicked Beihai Kindergarten

Mo Yi was somewhat shocked by the combination skills used by Shen Lang and Wei Qianluo.

The ultimate icy power, coupled with Wei Qianluo's snow, the combination of two Shenhai realm masters actually had the effect of a full-strength attack from the Zhoutian realm, which was somewhat subverting Mo Yi's cognition.

Is this the Zhao family's Snow Piao Renjian? It's really amazing!

What was even more unexpected was that Shen Lang's ice magic seemed to be connected to his blood, maximizing the power of his blood.

I thought that the Zhao family's Snow Piao Renjian had turned into a technique related to wind and snow, but it turns out that there are still ice spells of this level left.

"The two of us were attacked back..." Shen Lang just remembered.

"Well, next time, don't attack the magic field of the Divine Wandering Realm. Only I can touch that thing." Mo Yi said solemnly: "There is not only his own power, but also the powerful power of heaven and earth."

"Yes, Master. I'm sorry for the trouble. Ahem..." Shen Lang coughed twice and coughed up two mouthfuls of blood: "How far are we from Cannes now?"

"It's almost there. We'll be in Cannes in about an hour." Lu Fengxian said, "The wind and sand have faded. It won't be so difficult for us to find the way."

"Huh..." Shen Lang let out a long breath.

I feel sorry for Zhang Lei this time.

Promised Zhang San to give him those spirit stones.

However, this trip to Muyun City was too dangerous, and there was no chance to take a look at the mass grave where Zhang Lei was.

"Let's go back quickly..." Shen Lang looked worried: "There are so many cities in the northern border, I'm afraid something might happen..."

…………

Cannes.

When the Wolf Lord came out of seclusion, communications had begun to show signs of being restored.

Just this morning, communications in all cities were repaired.

What I got was bad news...

Ji Wendi looked at the series of reports and felt dizzy.

"Two more prefectures were lost outside Xuanmo Pass? So, there are only two prefectures left after Yongning Prefecture, plus Kangcheng Prefecture and Echeng Prefecture... there are only five prefectures left?" Ji Wendi's voice trembled.

There are twenty-one prefectures in Youzhou, and outside Xuanmo Pass, there are eleven prefectures.

The area outside Xuanmo Pass in Youzhou was not particularly suitable for living, as it was full of mountains and blocked roads.

However, after successive generations of Zhenbei Kings reclaimed the land, performed magic to move mountains and fill the sea, and slowly used policies to relocate the people, so many places suitable for farming, mining and living were created.

The kings of Zhenbei in all dynasties were always prepared for danger in times of peace. In addition to creating a livable place, they also established Xuanmo Pass, a secondary natural barrier, which was no less important than Shanhaiguan in normal history.

After the fall of Muyun City, the people of the grassland planned to take over three prefectures of Muyun Prefecture.

When the sky was filled with wind and sand, it also rained on the three prefectures.

Each prefecture has four or five county towns, which means that more than twenty cities are now in the hands of the grassland people.

“Your Highness, we must retreat to Xuanmo Pass! There are less than three thousand soldiers left in the Northern Expedition Army…” Uncle Wen sighed.

Ji Wendi felt a little dizzy.

There are less than 3,000 soldiers left in the Northern Expedition Army...

Although this army was temporarily assembled, it is intended to fight the main force of the Wolf Lord.

Now the Wolf Lord’s soldiers are nowhere to be seen. After being attacked by other tribes, the city has been almost lost and most of the people are gone.

What’s even more hateful is that many of these soldiers cannot be counted as having died in battle. How many troops lost their combat effectiveness directly because the other side took advantage of the weather?

Ji Wendi thought back to when he came out of seclusion, he was full of vigor and energy, but now...

"It's all because of the few people that King Zhenbei left behind..." Ji Wending gritted his teeth and said, "If their 50,000 troops were at my disposal, how could we have suffered such a great defeat?"

"So, Your Highness, we should withdraw." Uncle Wen said helplessly: "Retreat to Xuanmo Pass. There are still 30,000 troops at Xuanmo Pass. Relying on the natural barrier, we can fight."

"The defenders of Kangcheng Goose City have no fighting power at all now..."

The sandstorm raged for more than ten days. The well water dried up, the river water was buried by the sandstorm, and the lake was full of sand, with no water source.

How can people survive without water?

In the entire city of Kangcheng, there were no less than ten thousand people who died of thirst.

Water is now more precious than money and food.

Transport water from the interior?

Facing the current northern border, transporting water within the pass is like a drop in the bucket.

"Huh..." Ji Wendi laughed bitterly: "It's all because of this evil God..."

He now understood that the small victory of retreating Asujiba before was just a minor victory in the overall situation of the war...

"Let's go." Ji Wendi grabbed the report in front of him and said, "We can't defend Cannes anymore."

hum!

At this moment, the communication spirit stone on the table lit up.

Before, this thing was just a decoration and could only connect to the military camps outside the city. Now it can connect to many places.

Ji Wendi used his magic power and tapped the spirit stone.

Suddenly, the commander of the north gate appeared in Ji Wendi's sight.

This guard was the only captain left in the city, so he was guarding the most critical north gate.

"Your Highness..." The guard bowed to Ji Wendi and said, "There is a cavalry group coming this way in the distance. Judging from their attire, they are our people. The leader is Shen Lang, who was sent out by Your Highness."

"Oh?"

Seeing the situation in the city getting worse and worse these days, Ji Wendi almost forgot about Shen Lang.

"He's back...let him into the city." Ji Wendi said.

This trip didn't mean I gained nothing, at least I got Shen Lang.

"Yes!"

…………

Shen Lang has now recovered some of his spirit, and Wei Qianluo has also woken up.

Shen Lang felt very heavy-hearted as he entered the city with hundreds of soldiers.

The streets were full of sand, and even though the sand was cleaned out of the city every day, there was still a lot of residue left.

Apart from the sand, there were refugees everywhere. Before he left, these refugees were normal people who had enough food and warm clothing.

But now their faces are pale, their lips are cracked, and some of them are even drinking blood to survive.

The government has been distributing water, but the amount of water each person can get is pitifully small.

All this water is made by monks condensing water spirit energy, but how many monks are there now, and how much water can be made? How can it be enough for the entire city? There is no water spirit bead like the one in the immortal sword here.

Shen Lang brought his troops back to the county government office, where Ji Wendi was already waiting for him.

Ji Wendi had a fierce look on his face and was looking at Shen Lang seriously.

"Shen Lang, where is Zhao Huaibei's head?" Ji Wendi asked.

"Here..." Shen Lang sighed, took out a box from his storage bag, and placed it on the table in front of Ji Wendi.

He opened the lid, revealing the young face of Zhao Huaibei inside.

He stepped back and bowed to the lid.

Ji Wendi was choked by the words that followed.

Five days, how did Shen Lang do it?

In Muyun City, the Wolf Lord’s base camp, Zhao Huaibei’s head was retrieved?

Seeing Shen Lang saluting like this, Ji Wendi couldn't help but stand up and bow to Zhao Huaibei's head.

In any case, Zhao Huaibei was still thinking about the Great Zhou before his death, and he fought to the death in Muyun City. This kind of person deserves his admiration.

"How did you do it?" Ji Wendi looked at Shen Lang in some confusion.

Being able to bring back Zhao Huaibei's head somewhat subverted his cognition.

"I will sneak into Muyun City..."

Shen Lang used a calm tone to narrate his experiences in Muyun City bit by bit.

"You mean to say that you turned that county magistrate into a corrupt official?" Ji Wendi's eyes widened when he heard what Shen Lang did in the first two days after entering the city.

"He is a greedy person. I just taught him how to be greedy." Shen Lang said.

Ji Wendi's heart started beating rapidly.

This Shen Lang is such a talented person!

If it were someone else, seeing the tight defenses in Muyun City, they would probably return in disgrace.

He took advantage of Natmur's letter of recommendation and turned the county magistrate into a corrupt official.

This has no impact on the short-term battle situation, but in the long run...

If there are two more stupid teammates on the opposite side, it will definitely weaken the combat effectiveness!

If this county magistrate, or even that prefect, gradually grows ambitious and becomes extremely greedy...

Let’s put it this way, Shen Lang has definitely done more than a normal captain!

"What's next?" Ji Wendi became interested.

Shen Lang continued to tell his story.

"In other words... you provoked conflicts between the grassland people and those who defected? You also provoked conflicts between the grassland people and the government?" Ji Wendi swallowed.

If Shen Lang's support for corrupt officials aroused the greed of the county magistrate himself, then what he did was a bit shocking!

With his own strength, he undermined the trust of the grassland people in their officials and caused conflicts between the grassroots grassland people and the officials...

Although Ji Wendi was arrogant and could not see how the common people were doing when he was in charge of Kangcheng, he was not a good-for-nothing after all. It was just that the conditions and environment he lived in had prevented him from falling into the bottom of society, so he did not understand the sufferings of the world.

Disaster, in his eyes, has always been just a number, and the solutions he knows are only those taught by others.

This time when he came to Cannes, he basically never left the county government office. The county magistrate said that the people were lazy, and he really believed it.

It was not until he met Shen Lang that he realized that it was not the laziness of the people, but the incompetence of the county magistrate...

In short, if he is asked to manage people's livelihood, he will only look at data and some theoretical concepts, but Shen Lang used to be a team leader, and his most important task every month is to report to his superiors, and what he says is the kind that Ji Wending can understand...

"It was all done by chance..."

"Your doing this is quite interesting." Ji Wendi swallowed.

Shen Lang did not take credit for it, but instead talked about how he took Zhao Huaibei's head.

Ji Wendi has a new definition of Shen Lang.

How did Zhao Huaibei cultivate this talent?

Although those links are not interconnected, it can be seen that Shen Lang's ability to adapt to changing circumstances is extremely amazing.

As for the strong psychological quality, Ji Wendi didn't know much about it. Like many netizens, he had eight hundred correct solutions to a video, a TV series or a movie and thought that was just like that.

This thing is one thing when viewed from a God's perspective, but you can only know how difficult it is when you experience it yourself.

When the soldiers went to the city gate to look for Shen Lang, anyone else would have had a blank mind and trembled...

The problem is that Ji Wendi doesn’t understand that Uncle Wen in the Divine Profound Realm had risen from the bottom.

Listening to Shen Lang's words, I couldn't help but have a new evaluation of Shen Lang.

It's a pity that this boy's talent for cultivation is a little weak, otherwise he would have become a great man!

Faced with these situations, even professionally trained spies cannot handle them as well as this boy...

Chapter 176 Transfer

"Your Highness, I have completed the task on time and lived up to your trust..." Shen Lang finished speaking, bowed, and said calmly: "When the conflict was provoked, the powerful man in the Divine Profound Realm held a grudge and cast a spell on me. If it cannot be removed, I am afraid I will not live for more than a month..."

"Oh?" Ji Wendi no longer maintained his status as a leader, and walked straight forward to take Shen Lang's pulse.

"There is indeed a force in your body that is eating away at your body, but I can't untie this force." Ji Wending frowned slightly: "Uncle Wen, can you try?"
