This female leader is a little bit stronger

"Report! The demon army is advancing thirty miles towards the dragon vein!"

Luo Yuzhu gritted his teeth and ordered: "All troops, meet the enemy!"

……

"Report! Our army lost 50,000 men, and Lieutenant General Wei Ping was killed!"

"Report! Our army has lost 30,000 men! The demon army is still advancing!"

……

"Report! General Huo Yan was seriously injured by the leader of the demon army..."

"Report! The demon army is accelerating!"

"..."

The battle situation at the front was reported to the war camp one by one, all of which were casualties and devastating defeats, without a single piece of news of victory, which made people feel depressed.

Everyone was sighing and groaning, and the atmosphere was gloomy.

It has been several months, and the reinforcements have still not arrived. Only the Holy Kingdom's own army and the Immortal Alliance monks are struggling to hold on.

Currently, there are less than 800,000 people left in the Holy Kingdom’s army, of which only tens of thousands are monks from the sects.

All those below the level of God Transformation will be incorporated into the army, while those above the level of God Transformation will not participate in the war. Their main role is to restrain the demon generals.

A high-level cultivator can move mountains and seas with just a thought, so they cannot easily set foot on the battlefield.

Mutual checks and balances appear to be of paramount importance.

It's like if the demon general uses a big move and millions of humans are killed, then the battle will be meaningless.

Therefore, in such a decisive battle, both sides tacitly agreed not to attack, letting the armies fight each other. After the victory or defeat was determined, they would fight to the death!

The young prince was shouldering the heavy responsibility, and even though his hands were shaking, he still tried hard to remain calm and composed.

He knew his responsibilities, and the more crucial the moment, the more he couldn't show any weakness!

"Where is General Wang Zhi?"

Wang Zhi stepped forward and said, "The veteran is here."

Luo Yuzhu pointed her delicate finger at a long river on the southern border of the map. "The reinforcements from the Southern Holy Land must cross the Quyao River. The Quyao River corrodes everything, so they can only be crossed by bridge. But they haven't arrived yet. I'm afraid they've been ambushed by the demon army."

"The prince suspects that the demon army destroyed the bridge?"

"That's right, General Wang. You must immediately lead 50,000 troops and enough corrosion-resistant rolling wood to the Quyao Riverbank to meet the reinforcements."

Wang Zhigang was about to accept the order.

"Absolutely not!"

Several old ministers immediately rushed forward, trying to dissuade him:

"General Wang needs to guard the rear and cannot leave!"

"We were already at a disadvantage, and it was only thanks to the old general's deterrence that the demons refrained from launching a large-scale attack. If the demon army knew that General Wang had left, the consequences would be disastrous!"

"That's right, please think twice, Your Highness!"

"..."

Luo Yuzhu gritted his teeth. He knew very well that Wang Zhi had a deterrent effect, but if the reinforcements did not arrive, they would continue to be devoured by the demons, and the country would be destroyed.

It’s better to go all out!

Wang Zhi didn't say anything. His old, weather-beaten eyes looked at Luo Yuzhu kindly, and he would not question any decision he made.

The burden on the young prince's shoulders is heavy, and every step he takes involves the fate of countless people. He is afraid of taking a wrong step, but he has no choice but to move forward!

Let’s take a gamble!

Because there really is no way out.

At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Report, there is a cultivator outside the tent who wants to see you, claiming to be the leader of the Tianning Sect!"

"who……"

Luo Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat and she suspected she was hallucinating.

The next second, he rushed out, and the guards automatically opened the tent when they saw this.

Outside the tent, a girl in red stood with her hands behind her back, without a trace of restraint or arrogance. While waiting, she seemed to be bored and looked up at the weather.

A little white goose squatted on the shoulder, doing the same movements as its owner.

Hearing the noise, Ning Ye looked down and saw the young man standing in front of him. He smiled broadly, "Long time no see, Yuzhu."

"Sister Ye Zi..."

When she heard her greeting, Luo Yuzhu finally believed that the person in front of her was real, and she couldn't help but burst out with tears.

He rushed over and hugged her tightly, "You are finally back...Sister Ye!"

It is said that one can only enter the Burial Dragon Abyss but not exit it, and he thought he would never see her again in this life.

Ning Ye patted his back, her heart softening. "I'm sorry for making you worry, Yuzhu."

Luo Yuzhu cried for a while, then had to put away her sadness, wiped her tears and led Ning Ye into the tent.

A bunch of officials, both big and small, were looking at the girl. Just now, when the tent was not closed, they saw with their own eyes that the prince threw himself into her arms and cried bitterly.

The two are of similar age and behave intimately. Could it be...

Ning Ye ignored the strangers' stares and automatically walked to stand next to Wang Zhi. She only knew this squinty-eyed old man.

But when other people saw this scene, they all gasped. "How dare you! How dare you stand on the same level as General Wang!"

Luo Yuzhu was about to scold the person who had spoken, but Wang Zhi smiled and shook his hand, "It's okay, we're not in the palace, there's no need to be so particular. Little girl, it's been a long time since we last met. It's a blessing to be able to come out of that place."

"That's a compliment." Ning Ye exchanged a few pleasantries and then got straight to the point: "While I was waiting outside the tent, I heard your discussion. It's really not appropriate for Wang Zhi to take on this job. I'll go in his place."

When these words were spoken, people had different reactions.

The vast majority of people oppose it as soon as they open their mouths!

They didn't know Ning Ye's background at all, so how could they be confident in entrusting her with such an important task and providing her with a large number of troops and supplies?

She is just a little girl, is she reliable?

Luo Yuzhu was also very hesitant. They had just met again, and he really didn't want Ning Ye to leave again immediately. Besides, this matter itself was full of risks.

Wang Zhi still didn't express his opinion, but a smile was visible in the corner of his eyes.

Ning Ye ignored others and only looked at Luo Yuzhu: "Yuzhu, make a decision, time waits for no one."

Luo Yuzhu was extremely conflicted: "Sister Ye, do you really want to go?"

"Yes," Ning Ye nodded, "I'll share your worries."

Luo Yuzhu was about to cry again, but she tried her best to hold back her tears. Finally, she overcame all objections and handed the task to Ning Ye.

Quyao River Beach.

The endless red-yellow river water.

This is a forbidden zone for life. The air is filled with the smell of strong acid. If a stone falls here, it will be corroded immediately.

The only wooden bridge was destroyed by humans.

Whenever the monks tried to fly across the river, they would be forced back by thousands of arrows fired from the other side of the river!

But there is high ground on the other side of the river!

"How did the demons know to intercept us from here? What bad luck!" An elder leading the Lingyun Sect angrily waved his sleeves!

"Maybe the news leaked!" another elder said.

Another elder sighed, "The Quyao River beach stretches for a thousand miles. There's simply no time to take a detour. I hope the Northern Holy Land can hold out for a little longer."

"Even if they can hold on, it's useless. We can't get through!"

"Too……"

"Since we can't get through, we might as well turn back." A young man's voice sounded from behind, with a bit of laziness and rudeness. The speaker was Xie Chengyun.

He was unhappy about being assigned by the sect to provide support. After all, fighting was such a dangerous thing. What if he lost his life? "In my opinion, if the demons conquer the north, they will invade the south. The north is definitely hopeless. It would be better to unite the east and west and deploy in advance."
