Chapter 1929 Setting up a trap
Some major forces in the southern royal city were also shocked.
Ye Liuyun's Death Corps was advancing too fast.
If it continued like this, it would reach the royal city in less than three months.
Now King Nanfu was fighting on two fronts.
And he was obviously not fully prepared for the attack of the Death Corps.
He never expected that the 300,000 troops on the border would be wiped out by Ye Liuyun in one day.
And the defenders of the cities along the way did not hold out for two hours before they were directly broken into by the Death Corps.
Pei Yong, the leader of the surrendered soldiers, was the busiest at this time.
There were too many surrendered soldiers. On the first day, more than 200,000 surrendered soldiers were received, and then every city had surrendered soldiers.
In order to keep up with the pace of the army, he did not have time to be too meticulous and directly asked these surrendered soldiers to sign a surrender contract.
Those who did not sign would be killed directly.
Then these surrendered soldiers followed the army forward, and he reorganized them into teams of soldiers while walking, and asked them to garrison the city according to the new reorganized teams.
King Nanfu had no choice. Except for the cities on the attack route of the Death Corps, all the defenders of other cities had to gather in the royal city.
After these soldiers gathered together, they also needed time to reorganize.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers was not strong. At most, they could only block the pace of the Death Corps' attack and strengthen their momentum.
He also transferred 200,000 troops from the eastern border.
But it would take more than a month to get to the royal city at the fastest.
Even if King Nanfu wanted to negotiate with the Death Corps, he had to block their offensive, otherwise why would the Death Corps negotiate with him.
So the Death Corps had almost no larger corps to fight for a month.
This month was also an opportunity for them to advance quickly.
The Sharp Knife Corps led by Ye Tiandao was also the busiest.
Not only did they have to clear the way for the middle road, but they also had to rush to the two flank armies to help. The time on the way was their time to practice and recover. The battle never stopped.
Wu Qingcheng and others were tempered and became stronger in the constant battles.
A few days later, information about the southern region was all over the place, and ordinary people also knew about the plight of the south.
The major forces in the royal city have begun to arrange to transfer resources outward.
The 100,000 imperial guards in the royal city are also preparing for war at this moment.
The patrols and inspections in the city have also been strengthened to prevent people from taking advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.
At this time, Lin Xiyao suddenly came to find Ye Liuyun.
"Master said that she would come to the royal city first, go to the Alchemist Alliance to store some medicinal materials, and then take me and some elite disciples of the Lin family to the central area to avoid the war first, and come back after it is settled."
Lin Xiyao said to Ye Liuyun worriedly: "She doesn't mention Mu Lianqing now.
But I'm worried that after arriving in the central area, she might want me to marry someone again!"
Ye Liuyun also immediately asked Mu Lianqing through the slave seal.
Sure enough, Mu Lianqing did not receive the notice from Lin Luoyi.
It seems that Lin Luoyi is not optimistic about the situation of King Nanfu and does not mention the marriage.
"Stay with me first. I'll find a way to deal with her. Maybe I need your cooperation!"
Ye Liuyun thought this was a good time to deal with Lin Luoyi, so he prepared a trap.
He kept Lin Xiyao by his side, and instructed Mu Lianqing through the slave seal to take some martial arts masters to the city gate to wait for Lin Luoyi, and to invite Lin Luoyi to a high-end restaurant for dinner.
Then he would also be there to deal with Lin Luoyi with them and plant the slave seal on Lin Luoyi.
Mu Lianqing also immediately understood that Lin Luoyi deliberately did not inform him and did not want to mention the marriage again.
He also hated Lin Luoyi in his heart: "If I hadn't wanted to worship you as my master, I would have fallen to this point! Now you want to kick me away with one foot, do you think I'm a fool?"
So when he heard that Ye Liuyun was going to plant the slave seal on her, he immediately became energetic.
He immediately brought more than ten fifth-level martial artists and more than fifty archers, fully armed, to the city gate to wait for Lin Luoyi.
If Lin Luoyi didn't go, they would attack together, and together with the garrison, they would tie her up and send her to Ye Liuyun, so that she would suffer the same fate as herself and become Ye Liuyun's slave.
Lin Luoyi rushed to the royal city with only two close maids, and she didn't expect to meet Mu Lianqing at all.
And Mu Lianqing also pretended to be surprised and hurried to greet her respectfully.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Luoyi still looked high and mighty, and hadn't realized the danger was approaching.
Mu Lianqing replied: "Recently, the royal city has strengthened its defenses, and I just came here to inspect it.
Why didn't you notify me when you came to the royal city?"
"Do I need to notify you when I come to the royal city?"
Lin Luoyi said disdainfully. "Please let me know so I can welcome you!"
Although Mu Lianqing secretly cursed Lin Luoyi in his heart, he was humble on the surface.
"Okay, go do your thing! I'll go to the city to do some things, and then I'll take Xiyao back to the Lin family!"
Lin Luoyi ordered.
"Xiyao is not in the Alchemist Alliance now, she is refining pills in my palace! Why don't you go to the VIP building and wait for a while? I haven't seen you for a long time, so I can do my best to be a good host."
Mu Lianqing made up a story.
Lin Luoyi frowned and asked, "Why is Xiyao in your palace?
Wasn't it you who kidnapped her by force? "
Mu Lianqing waved his hands repeatedly and said with an aggrieved look: "Our palace wants to prepare some elixirs for the imperial army, and we ask Xiyao to help refine the elixirs."
"Why didn't she tell me?"
Lin Luoyi immediately expressed doubts and immediately took out the transmission talisman and asked Lin Xiyao.
Ye Liuyun was teaching Lin Xiyao how to answer: "Just say that you have agreed to the palace, and you have to refine a few more batches of elixirs, so you can't leave for the time being."
Lin Xiyao responded according to Ye Liuyun's instructions, and Lin Luoyi believed it.
"Okay then, I'll go to the Alchemist Alliance to buy some medicinal materials first, and then go to the VIP building to wait for her!"
With that said, she went straight into the city.
She didn't pay attention to the guards at the city gate, thinking that the guards at the city gate were really strengthened.
Mu Lianqing immediately sent someone to arrange a private room in the VIP Building.
Then he led people to guard outside the Alchemist Alliance, waiting for Lin Luoyi to come out.
After Lin Luoyi joined the Alchemist Alliance, he also bought medicine and came out.
With her arrogant personality, no one looked down on her, and naturally no one took the initiative to chat with her.
The most it can do is say hello.
So she didn't know at all that Lin Xiyao was at Ye Liuyun's residence.
Before Mu Lianqing replied to her, Ye Liuyun had already been killed by him.
When she came out of the Alchemist Alliance and saw Mu Lianqing with so many people, she was also stunned by the scene.
"Why are you making such a big fuss about having a meal?"
She asked Mu Lianqing dissatisfiedly.
"Oh, I have no choice! I recently received news that someone is coming to assassinate me and my father, so I have to add more people around to scare those assassins."
When Mu Lianqing made up lies, his face did not turn red and his heart did not beat. He said it very naturally.
