Chapter 372

"Hey, Lin Wu, did you listen to me?" Roy knocked on the table with a spoon in dissatisfaction.

"Um, what were you talking about just now?" Lin Wu asked shyly after recovering from his own thoughts.

Roy had an expression that I knew, "I said, now His Majesty has blocked the trade between each city, and ordinary people can no longer leave the city."

Roy repeated what he had said before.

"There's no way around it. It's the outbreak of war now." Lin Wu accepted it quickly.

"I don't know how long this war will last, and whether the Red Eagle Empire can survive." Roy sighed.

Lin Wu stopped talking. He could see Roy's worry. After all, Roy was born and raised in the Red Eagle Empire. It would be a lie to say that he has no feelings for this country.

But Lin Wu didn't have such strong worries anymore. Although he had lived here for many years and had a sense of belonging to this place, it was more about his feelings for Huang Fa, Wan Zong, and Roy, the few friends he knew. The empire itself didn't care that much.

For the next month, Lin Wu stayed in the imperial capital honestly and didn't go anywhere.

Wan Zong did not appear again in this month. Lin Wu is probably not in the imperial capital anymore, either to perform a mission, or be sent by His Majesty to command the battle.

A battle report was continuously sent to the imperial capital from the four battlefields, and Yan Ding would pick out some news and publish it to let the people below know, which could be regarded as soothing their panic and nervous emotions.

"It is said that it is the battlefield on the other side of the border mountain range. Marshal Yan Yu has already led his troops to gain the upper hand and defeated the army of the Desert Empire." Roy looked at the newspaper in his hand and concluded.

"What do you think?" Roy looked at Lin Wu.

Lin Wu lay on the floor with his hands behind his head, "Since the news came from the palace, even if it was to appease the common people, His Majesty would not spread false news. It should be correct, just."

"Just what?" Seeing that Lin Wu hadn't finished speaking, Roy asked.

"It's just that we don't know how much bad news there is." Lin Wu shook his head and said.

In this regard, Roy also knows a lot of confidential information, His Majesty will not let ordinary people know, otherwise it will only cause unnecessary panic.

"It would be great if I could go to the front line and contribute." Roy sighed. He was really worried about the future of this country from the bottom of his heart.

The same is true for most ordinary people living in the Red Eagle Empire, no one wants to be a subjugated slave.

If Red Eagle was defeated, all that awaited them would be wandering exiles. Warriors with a little cultivation would be better, but those women, old people and children would suffer. Not to mention suffering, they might even lose their lives.

Lin Wu opened his closed eyes, smiled at Roy and said, "I guess you will get your wish soon."

Roy was taken aback when he heard Lin Wu's words, "What do you mean?"

"The whole country of the desert is coming to invade, and it is pulling from all directions. This is a tug-of-war that affects the whole body. Even if the Red Eagle Empire has been recharging its energy for many years, those troops will only be exhausted. As the strength of the troops continues to decrease, His Majesty may carry out A nationwide conscription operation is used to fill the vacancies in the army." Lin Wu said.

Roy was lost in thought.

A week later, as Lin Wu said, the conscription order spread throughout the country, and Yan Ding stepped onto the podium in person, and a passionate speech about defending the family and the country spread across the screens across the country.

Countless warriors with cultivation bases responded to the call one after another and stepped onto the front line against the attacks from other countries.

And these people included Roy and Lin Wu.

"Hey, Roy, I didn't say I was going." Lin Wu said dissatisfied.

"Go, Lin Wu, I believe that everyone in Huang Fa doesn't want to lose their familiar country after resurrection." Roy has been persuading Lin Wu these days, and he always uses Huang Fa as an excuse.

He is well aware of how terrifying Lin Wu's current strength is. It can be said that it is comparable to the three marshals of the empire, or even surpassed.

During the civil strife, Lin Wu beheaded the patriarchs of Zhang Ning's family and countless elders and strong men. It would be aggrieved to describe these achievements as illustrious.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lin Wu has the ability to change the battlefield, which is why Roy insisted on pulling him in.

This ostensibly caused war by the Desert Empire lasted for a whole year.

In the end, with the victory of the Red Eagle Empire, the defeat of the Desert Empire came to an end.

Looking back at the battle situation this year, the Red Eagle Empire first quelled the civil strife that erupted in the west as quickly as possible, and then Hayden, who had withdrawn from the army, scattered nearly a million orc tribes in the north, completely stabilizing the Northwest.

Afterwards, in response to conscription from across the country, countless warriors spontaneously formed troops into the two battlefields in the southeast, adding a large force of fresh troops, allowing the two precarious fronts to receive reinforcements without being completely defeated.

When the Red Eagle Empire also poured all its strength into confronting the Desert Empire head-on, the outcome was already decided.

How can the Desert Empire, which has been in a place where resources are scarce all year round, be able to compete with the Red Eagle Empire.

Although at the most critical moment, the Great Desert Empire had also pushed the Red Eagle Empire into a desperate situation, nearly half of the cities and villages in the south were occupied by the Great Desert Empire.

If there were not a large number of people who volunteered and assembled, the Red Eagle Empire might have really been captured by the Desert Empire.

"Your Majesty, fortunately, all the invaders have escaped from the empire."

The three Marshals Yan Yu, Hayden, and Gavin stood in the palace hall and saluted Yan Ding.

"Very good, you are doing very well." Yan Ding said again and again, although only a year had passed, but the emperor seemed to have a few wrinkles on his face, making him look several years old.

This was impossible with Yan Ding's strength before, obviously he was also very tired this year.

Yan Yu raised his head, his face was serious, and he said loudly: "Please Your Majesty, let me lead the soldiers to continue the pursuit and completely destroy the Desert Empire!"

Yan Yu was obviously not willing to just let the escaped intruders go, and wanted to hunt them down.

Yan Ding didn't agree immediately, as an emperor, he had to think more.

The Desert Empire is certainly hateful, but it is irrational to send troops to pursue it at this time.

Although the land was defended, the Red Eagle itself was already scarred and suffered heavy losses.

Whether it is military strength, economy, or the lost land that has been recovered, it needs to be re-planned and re-built.

Yan Ding had to admit that after this battle, their vitality was also greatly injured.

At this time, he must do his best to heal his wounds and strive for stability. If he rashly sends troops again, Yan Ding is afraid that troubles will arise, and he will have no chance to recuperate.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let me inquire about the whereabouts of the defeated and remnant soldiers of the Desert Empire. As long as we hit a single blow without procrastinating, we can completely eliminate these troubles quickly without delaying the country's rectification."

At this time, Wan Zong also saw Yan Ding's hesitation, and he spoke out with the same unwillingness.
