The next morning, Zhuge Longlong quickly gathered the four of Xu Guowei, Mei Yufang, Chang Ying and Tong Wen. When the four of them saw Zhuge Longlong for the first time, they were somewhat surprised.

"National Master, what's wrong with your face?"

Zhuge Longlong was shocked and hurriedly took a mirror to look at his face, but it was still so dull.

"My face is very good." Zhuge Longlong said with a smile.

"But... your face is very white and your complexion looks a little bad? Could it be that you didn't sleep all night?" Xu Jie said with some concern.

Zhuge Longlong waved his hand indifferently and said, "There is no need to mention such a small matter."

"How can that be done! National Master, your health is related to the future of our empire. I think you should go and rest quickly. I will talk about anything later." Xu Jie suggested.

"I'm fine. Don't worry about it here if you are being done. You guys quickly sit down. I have something important to tell you."

With Zhuge Longlong's insistence, the few people did it, but they were still very worried about Zhuge Longlong's physical condition. Although he tried his best to realize his spirit, everyone present was a sharp-eyed person, and everyone could see that there was deep fatigue hidden under Zhuge Longlong's spiritual eyes.

After drinking all the tea that I spent the night, Zhuge Longlong made himself as clear as possible and said, "Someone, what I will say next is very important, you must listen carefully."

Everyone nodded, raised their ears, and listened carefully to Zhuge Longlong's next words.

"Early tomorrow morning, the enemy will attack us again, and our reinforcements will arrive tomorrow, and the enemy's reinforcements will not arrive tomorrow. Therefore, we must defend the banks of the Song Yuan River at all costs, and we must not let the enemy attack and win this battle!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed, keeping Zhuge Longlong's words in mind: Do everything to be solved! Guard the river bank!

After drinking another cup of tea, Zhuge Longlong continued: "If we defeat the Yuantuo Empire tomorrow, they have a high probability of stationing on the north bank of the river to confront us and harassing us from time to time."

"What we have to do at this time is to resist the enemy's disturbances as much as possible, reduce casualties, and continue to strengthen the third and fourth lines of defense, and place as many magic bombs as possible on the roads to the third and fourth lines of defense. It is best to use all magic bombs!"

"The reinforcements of the Yuantuo Empire will arrive at the battlefield in five days. At that time, they will launch a national offensive against us. Once they attack, we will retreat immediately and retreat all the way to the fifth line of defense, striving to defend on the fifth line of defense for one day, and then retreat to Junhe Fortress!"

"As long as we can hold on to Junhe Fortress for three days, the situation on the battlefield will turn around, so, no matter what, we must defend the border area for at least nine days!"

"At any cost! Even if you die with your enemies, you must keep these nine days!"

Everyone nodded heavily. Although Zhuge Longlong did not explain what this turning point was, everyone subconsciously chose to believe Zhuge Longlong's words.

"The national teacher actually said that there is a turning point, so there must be!"

Turning to look at Tong Wen, Zhuge Longlong said, "Miss Tong Wen, you will be the next place to replace Commander Feng and be responsible for commanding the Song Shi Legion. Can you do it?"

Perhaps infected by Zhuge Longlong's words and spirit, Tong Wen seemed to be integrated with the soldiers of the Song Dynasty Empire and became a member of the Song Dynasty Empire.

He nodded heavily and Tong Wen said, "Yes!"

"Okay! The code-name of this operation is 'Price' that is to defend the border of the empire at all costs!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed. After Zhuge Longlong briefly explained the task he should do again, the few people immediately left the tent and began to deploy the soldiers.

Hua Yan was on the north bank of the river, watching the soldiers of the Song Dynasty Empire who were busy on the other side. It was winter at this time, and crystal snowflakes were flying in the air. Before they had fallen to the ground, they were melted by the hot atmosphere on the river bank.

The soldiers on the south bank continued to build defense projects, buried magic bombs on the shore, and moved all kinds of weapons to the front of the military camp to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

Seeing this, Hua Yan couldn't help but smile: "Zhuge Longlong, tomorrow, let me see how capable you are."

...

The next day.

The sun slowly rose from the distant horizon, and the sun shone on the earth, but it did not bring any warmth. Instead, it brought a ray of cold wind, blowing through the river, attaching a thin layer of ice to the already cold river water.

In this severe winter cold, everything is so stiff and everything is so bleak, and only the cold wind is active.

At this time, the reinforcements from the Song Dynasty Empire had arrived in time. After obeying the instructions of Zhuge Longlong, they arrived in the military camp, waiting for the opportunity to take action.

The soldiers of the Yuantuo Empire were standing on the north bank of the Song and Yuan River, wearing only a thin dress and solid armor. Under the cold wind, the iron armor shone with a cold light, and everyone looked very solemn and serious.

Hua Yan stood in front of the team's pursuit, took out his sword, and shouted: "Attack!"

"kill!"

The soldiers waved various magic weapons and stepped on fragile thin ice, and rushed towards the river bank.

The cold river water was beyond the waist of the soldiers, but the soldiers didn't care at all. The blood in their hearts dispelled the cold, allowing them to keep moving forward quickly in the water.

"Ice arrow, release!"

With the order from Zhuge Longlong, the ice magicians set their bows and arrows one by one, and cold arrows shot into the water. The originally flowing water instantly frozen into ice, and the soldiers who entered the river first were all frozen into ice sculptures.

"Don't panic, keep moving forward!"

Hua Yan once again became the backbone of the entire team in the center of the team. Under Hua Yan's call, the soldiers once again stepped on the ice and launched another round of charge against the river bank.

"Flame arrow, let it go!"

"Swish swish swish swish..."

Arrows of raging fire fell from the sky and pierced into the hard ice surface. The ice surface melted again, and the soldiers above fell directly into the cold water.

At the same time, the ice arrow fell from the air again, and another group of soldiers were frozen into ice sculptures.

Looking deeply at Zhuge Longlong hiding in the military camp in the distance, Hua Yan gritted his teeth and said, "So that's it. It turns out that you want to stop me like this. I want to see when you can stop it!"

As he said that, Hua Yan waved his hand and ordered all the personnel to change the formation: "All personnel obey orders, wood and soil are in front! Ten meters are a distance, build a bridge! Others go to the bridge to cover!"

"yes!"

The soldiers quickly changed their formation, with Wood Magicians and Earth Magicians in front of them, responsible for seeing the proposed arched bridges, while the other soldiers followed Wood Magicians and advanced while protecting them to build bridges.

Seeing this, Zhuge Longlong shouted: "All members obey orders and attack in the order of the five elements of mutual generation!"

"yes!"

"Swish swish swish swish..."

Rows of arrows fell from the air, first rockets, then earth arrows, then gold arrows, then water arrows, then wooden arrows, and finally the rockets turn...

With this cycle, each round of shooting will make the damage caused by the next round of shooting more severe. Even if the soldiers set up shields on their heads, they cannot withstand such fierce attacks.

The shields were shot through, and soldiers were shot to death. Thrilling screams and sounds of falling into the water kept coming from the river. The water splashed around and turned into transparent ice beads. Before it could show its beauty, it was evaporated.

The originally clear river water was soon stained with blood, and corpses were floating everywhere on the river surface, and they were washed downstream along with the river water.

Although there were many people who died in the Yuantuo Empire, there were more people living. After paying tens of thousands of lives, bridges across the Song and Yuan River were finally built, and the soldiers were able to cross the Song and Yuan River from the bridge and come to the south bank.

Soon, the first group of soldiers arrived at the south bank successfully. They waved the wand in their hands, looked cruel, and ran towards the shore like a madman.

However, the people from the Yuantuo Empire did not expect that they were cruel, and the people from the Song Dynasty Empire were even more cruel!

Five hundred soldiers from the Song Dynasty Empire rushed out of the barracks in a row.

They didn't wear anything on them, even their armor, and they were just wearing a thin dress, and rushed out shouting.

One of the fast-moving soldiers rushed into the enemy army quickly, and the surrounding enemy troops immediately reacted and rushed towards her.

When the strong soldier of the Song Dynasty Empire saw so many enemies surrounding her, she did not dodge, but instead showed a hint of perseverance and determination in her eyes.

She raised her right hand and shouted.

"Long live the Song Dynasty Empire!"

A white light suddenly lit up in the soldier's dantian, the next second.

"Bang!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the soldier's body burst along the explosion, and the power generated by the explosion directly blew the enemy who rushed up around him. The soldier exchanged dozens of lives for her own life!

"Long live the Song Dynasty Empire!"

"Long live the Song Dynasty Empire!"

"Bang bang bang..."

A series of shouts of pride and violent explosions came from the river bank, and fresh lives disappeared from the shouts and explosions.

Hua Yan was completely shocked when she saw this. She never expected that the soldiers of the Song Dynasty Empire would stop their attack in such a way.

You should know that the Song Dynasty Empire has always cherished life very much, especially the lives of its own people. They would rather give up their own territory than let their own people suffer large-scale casualties.

But today, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty Empire changed their normal behavior. In order to defend the south bank, they did not hesitate to use self-destruction to sacrifice the majority of people in exchange for the survival of the majority.

It turns out that when a country is threatened, anyone can give their hearts for the country, for peace, and for freedom!
