Chapter 145 The wounded, the dead(2/2)
"I have always thought that it was just a legend. If I hadn't seen it here with my own eyes, even if someone told me, I wouldn't have believed it."
The great monk Fengming was a little moved. He was also a well-known figure in Jinling Temple, but he had never had any information about the Holy Demon. Since ancient times, the only saying has been circulating: People die as ghosts, and ghosts die as ghosts.
"At present, the power of the Holy Demon is completely different from that of ordinary monsters. Do you have any way to restrain yourself?"
Although the old boy only appeared in a shock and then left quickly, General Ying Yan also saw the terrible part of the other party. The siege of the Cangfeng Sect was useless, and the other party was still free to come and go. Its strength was much stronger than any demon king he had encountered before.
And if it were as stated by Taoist Ziwei, the Holy Demon was just a subordinate Xiaoshi Chang not long ago, but under the influence of the demonic magic, he quickly grew into a big monster, and even the members of the Cangfeng Sect could not easily defeat the other party.
If the old boy can create such a monster in large quantities, it will not be just a problem with Changqingdao, it will be a huge threat to the entire empire!
Everyone looked at each other, but finally could only shake their heads. They didn't think that the Holy Demon really existed before this. All their knowledge came from these battles. How did they rely on to deal with it?
General Ying Yan couldn't help frowning again, but he could only sigh helplessly in the end. Although he didn't want to admit it, the current situation was no longer under his control, and he had to ask for help.
"In this monster attack, in addition to County Magistrate Ye who died on the spot, nearly a thousand soldiers also suffered casualties, but the most important thing is that we almost lost all our ammunition and most of the artillery."
"After the subsequent count of Captain Wang, we have very few artillery left now, and it is difficult to guard Niujia Village, let alone take the initiative to attack the Demon King."
The others were silent and did not dare to speak at this time. Only Li Wei asked: "What does the general mean?"
"I need to go to Fuhang for help in person and from the empire for help." General Ying Yan looked around for a week and made the last decision, a decision he was not sure about whether it was correct.
"During this period, the army was in charge of Wang Xiaowei and Zhan Hu, and set up defenses in Niujia Village to resist the invasion of demons."
After a brief pause, General Ying Yan finally made a decision. He looked directly at Li Wei: "In addition, you have any objections to the position of governor of Taoist Ziwei to be granted a thousand people to be the position of county magistrate?"
The sergeant, the chief of the army, the chief of the corps, and the commander of the thousand people is the system of generals and officers of the empire. Theoretically, these four levels are still soldiers. Once they encounter war, they still need to fight in person. However, the number of soldiers under their command is different. Therefore, as a general, he has a special identity, General Ying Yan can barely be appointed during the war.
Going further up, it is a formal lieutenant. There is no need to fight, just be in the middle to command the army. The number of the entire empire is limited, so it is not something that General Ying Yan can do.
Except for the Chief Wang who knew the news in advance, everyone was shocked, even Li Wei was no exception.
He knew that while others were constantly losing, he would win one after another, and General Ying Yan would definitely be looked at by another person, but he did not expect that the other party would let him temporarily serve as the county magistrate.
You know, he is a black householder who has traveled through time. Not to mention a single official position before, he doesn’t even have a household registration!
Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to question. Although they had not been together for too long, they all knew that General Ying Yan was a person who was right. Now he clearly wanted to raise Master Ziwei. If anyone was so stupid that he could stop him, he would offend two people directly!
Seeing that no one raised any objections, General Ying Yan nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. Since everyone agreed, then in the next period, cooperate with Taoist Ziwei to guard Niujia Village."
In fact, General Ying Yan didn't want to do this at first, but there was no way. The monsters on Changqingdao were too fierce, and Fuhang and even the imperial court despised them too much.
If he didn't go back in person and sent a messenger back, he might at most send some soldiers to come. That was not the result he wanted, so he could only ask for help in person!
"Master Ziwei, you have worked so hard during this period. I now officially allow you to build the Ziwei Temple in the entire Changqing Island. I will give you a warrant later to mobilize all relevant personnel on the island and even the county."
