Starting from January 14, a large number of refugees from the provinces of Dea and Iriya entered Valen. They told Lin Bing that this was an organized retreat and was ordered by Lord Sterling. Lin Bing knew that Dilin was very concerned about Sterling's news and immediately notified him.

Di Lin asked many refugees, but most of them only knew that Lord Sterling had arrived in the area of ​​Deagan Province. As for where he went in the future, no one knew. Di Lin was very anxious. At this time, a military judge from the Far East Military Law Department came to report: "Sterling sent a squadron guard to hand over Lord Minghui to us. Do you want to interrogate him personally?"

Di Lin just went to see Minghui, and saw his dejected and pitiful look, he was almost frightened to become an idiot. Even Di Lin was too lazy to make things difficult for this unlucky guy and said, "Take him well and don't abuse him." Compared to Minghui, he was more interested in the captain who escorted Minghui and ordered him to see him.

After a while, the subordinates reported: The captain had invited him to Lord Lin Bing and asked if he would call him when he came back?

Di Lin thought for a while and said no. He went to Lin Bing's office by himself, knocked on the door, and walked in gently. In addition to Lin Bing, there were several senior Far Eastern Army officers behind the desk, facing a young officer in the uniform of the Central Army, saying something. Someone saw Di Lin standing up and saluting, but Di Lin waved his hand gently to indicate not to interrupt the question. He himself found a chair and sat down by the wall to listen.

The question seemed to be at the critical point. The young officer in the uniform of the Central Army was blushing and arguing about something: "...Mr. Lin, you misunderstood. We sent Lord Minghui back to carry out Lord Sterling's orders, and we were proof of Lord Sterling's warrant. The Central Army has no cowards! We are carrying out missions, not deserters! You should not treat us like this!"

Lin Bing sighed: "You misunderstood, young man, we have no intention of insulting you. I just wanted to confirm it. Okay, now-" She found Di Lin sitting by the wall, her eyes lit up, and paused. The latter made a gesture to her, she nodded slightly and continued: "--We're going to the topic: When you left, what Sterling was going to do, do you know? Where is he going? Is he going to retreat?"

The young officer smiled: "Mr. Lin Bing, you are asking strangely: What is Master Sterling going to do? How do the people below us know?"

Lin Bing was furious for a moment. Fortunately, before her famous hot temper broke out, the officer had already said: "But when we left, something strange happened: the adults were interrogating the captives of the demon clan. Then, as soon as the troops stopped, they immediately ordered them to concentrate on preparing to set off. The division commanders had already concentrated on holding secret meetings."

Lin Bing: "Set out? Where to go? What to do?"

"I heard that it was in Dussa Province, but we don't know the details. After the secret meeting, the officers were all weird. Several senior officers asked me to bring letters to their family, including Qin Lu and Wenhe..."

"Where are the letters?" Di Lin asked for the first time.

The young officer looked back at Di Lin and was a little surprised to see his black military judge's uniform, but did not answer because he did not know his identity.

Lin Bing said, "This is Lord Lin, the Chief Inspector General. You should also know that he is a good friend of you Lord Sterling. Answer his question."

The officer replied reluctantly: "It's all on me."

Di Lin said coldly: "Leave it to me."

The young officer protested: "I promised General Qin Lu. I want to hand it over to their family members with my own hands. Even if you are a military judge, you have no right to check the family letters of senior officers..."

Di Lin stood up and walked to the door and clapped his hands: "Come!" Several military policemen on duty nearby came in.

Lin Bing also hurriedly stood up: "Master Di Lin, there is no need to do this. Let's just persuade him, sir..."

"Search his body!" Di Lin pointed to the Central Army officer and said.

The military police immediately rushed forward like a tiger or a wolf. The officer was pressed down on the desk by several people, struggling and cursing desperately: "You bastard! I am a family officer, you have no right to treat me like this! I want to sue you..." A well-trained military police slapped him a few times, but he didn't say anything. The military police found several sealed letters from their tops' pockets in a short while and handed them to Di Lin.

Di Lin put the letter in his hand and looked through the cover: "Go to my wife Qin Road", "Please hand it over to my daughter Lishawenhe Banner", "Please hand it to No. 48, Didu Park Road to collect it" and other Taiwanese money. Di Lin signaled the gendarmes to take the officer out, then snorted, and started to tear the seal without any politeness.

Lin Bing looked at it in a daze: "Sir, it's illegal for you to do this!"

"Breaking the law? I am the law, what law is it?" He pulled out all the letters and looked at them carefully one by one. After reading one, he handed them to Lin Bing one: "Can you look?"

Lin Bing hesitated for a while, took the letter and started reading it.

The letter was not very long, full of lyrical sentimentality and tragic melancholy, but Di Lin and Lin Bing were not interested in these. They specifically chose sentences with substantial content to read. There was a sentence in the letter from Deputy Commander Qin Lu's home that made both of them hold their breath: "Mr. Sterling said that we are going to set out to kill the Great Demon God Emperor. So, my dear, if..."

The two looked at each other and understood everything: Why did the demons not move for so many days? Why could refugees from the Far East enter Valen safely and unhindered? Why did the demons miss such a great opportunity and not attack?... All the strange things that happened now have reasonable explanations: the main force of the demons have already been held back by the Sterling Legion. They exchanged their lives for the most precious time for the Valen Fortress and the salvation of millions of civilians...

Lin Bing raised awe: "Mr. Sterling is really great."

Di Lin cursed hatefully: "Idiot!"

"He saved millions of civilians, saved the Valen Fortress, and also saved the entire human world..."

"So I said he was a fool!" Di Lin cursed: "What's the fate of millions of untouchables? It depends on the army to save the country! He sent himself and the most elite troops of his family to a dead end, which was extremely stupid! What did he think he was? Savior? I'm just a fool!"

Di Lin became more and more angry as he spoke, and even his fingers were trembling with anger: "There is also that idiot Zichuanxiu. I bet that he must have been with Sterling! Big fool brings Xiaoben and pig shit teaches big dung, two are stupid! You can't urinate and drown yourself if you are tired of living? You still have to get tired of living, so many people are involved! Go and kill the Great Demon God Emperor? Pig! Do you really think you are Zuo Jiaming!"

Lin Bing looked at the Chief of Inspectors in a terrifying manner. She remembered that this calm and indifferent person had never been so ruthless. He even ignored his demeanor and the identity of the Chief of Inspectors, and cursed like a groom driving a cart, sarcastic and mean.

Di Lin walked out cursingly, shouting: "Gopra, prepare horses! Gather our people! Bring all the food and grass for six weeks, and a tent for winter! Damn, Gopra, where are you going? Why don't you do it now! Set out in three hours!"

Lin Bing suddenly chased to the door: "Sir, where are you going?"

"Nonsense! I've gone to those two idiots! I'll ask you for the fortress!"

Lin Bing was shocked: "Sir, you are crazy! There are demons everywhere outside the city. Your little men are not enough for them to get stuck in their teeth..."

Di Lin didn't look back and took care of her and strode away.

Lin Bing suddenly chased after him and grabbed him: "Di Lin, you are committing suicide! Didn't you say just now: Are their behavior very stupid?"

Di Lin kept his pace and cursed hatefully: "That's right! They are two hopeless stupid fools!"

"Ah, yes! Then you still..." Lin Bing pulled him: "Stop it!"

Di Lin smiled miserably, and a trace of sadness appeared on his beautiful face: "I am the third fool."

On the afternoon of January 15, Di Lin set out from Valen, targeting the Dussa Province in the Far East. The more than 30,000 soldiers and horses they brought were all swift light cavalry. When they served in the Far East Army, they followed Di Lin and fought to the depths of the demon kingdom. It can be said that they were all veterans who had been through the battlefield, especially about fighting against the demons. They had a lot of experience. Most of them were from the Far East and were familiar with the local terrain and turbulence.

Under the guidance of the Emperor Lin Legion, he took those unknown mountain roads and avoided the demon brigade rolling on the Far East Highway. The army sent scouts in front of the army and moved forward carefully. He walked secretly. The team wrapped horse hooves in cloth and issued a silence order to keep the soldiers in a marching manner. He also adopted a day and night marching method. During the day, the soldiers hid in the dense forest and rested. After dark at night, the brigade set off secretly.

Di Lin tried to be cautious and adopted this marching method, so that he could escape the large forces of the demons and rebels on the road, but it was impossible to avoid the rogues, scattered soldiers and scouts of the rebels in the mountains and fields in various places. According to Di Lin's order, the army drove all the way and sent scouts and outposts thirty miles in front of the team. When they encountered more than a hundred or thousands of brigades, the Di Lin army immediately hid or avoided them; as for those small troops with countless helplessness, the forwards of the Di Lin army were experienced veterans in fighting jungle warfare, and they had the idea of

Without any intention, they often find targets ahead of the enemy. And those demons and rebel squads who were loose without warning often only discovered at the last moment that they had surrounded thousands of human cavalry. Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, they rarely resisted to death. As long as the human cavalry shouted "Surrender and not kill." Most of them were disarmed without bloodshed. At this time, Di Lin often had to ask a few confessions in person before killing them. When the bodies were thrown into the dense forest on the side of the road, it was estimated that no one would find them within ten years.

The army of Dilin took the small roads of Fumingke Province and passed through the Gudisa Province. Although Dilin had tried to choose those rare and difficult roads to move forward, it still had to pass through many remote villages and those villagers working in the mountains and forests. The army passed through the border and wanted to completely avoid disturbing, leaving no traces, and completely hide it from their ears. Moreover, the residents of this area all sympathized with the rebels, and it was difficult to ensure that there were no spies from the rebels. Dilin ordered: "When you see people, kill people, slaughter the village! Never let a living go! "

Because of this order, countless tragedies began. On the cold winter night, the sleeping village was peaceful and silence. Suddenly, a sound of clamor sounded in the darkness, and horse hooves rumbling, and a large group of human cavalry broke into the village. The young and middle-aged people in the village had already rushed to the front line, leaving only women, children and elderly people of all races who had no ability to resist. The village suddenly woke up in their sleep cried and begged, and the human commander shouted loudly: "Don't let a living!" There were screams, wails, blood flowing, and corpses everywhere...

In that sinful fifth day, wherever the Di Lin army passed, it was immediately overwhelmed by blood. Countless quiet and peaceful homes turned into seas of fire in an instant. Those once energetic villages were razed to the ground overnight. At dawn, only a stream of black smoke was left, and the baby's intermittent crying was powerless. The white snow fell silently, quietly and quietly, covering up all this. The iron hooves of war ravaged innocent people like this.

※※※

When I was hiding during the day and going out at night, I had to take care of the difficult paths to move forward. I had to take care of the silence along the way. By adopting this way, it took Dilin a full twelve days to arrive at the province of Deagan, which is still two days away from Dusha. If I usually walk the Far East Highway, it only takes seven days from Valen to Dusha. But this is also beneficial: Dilin's army has not been discovered by the enemy's brigade, which is almost a miracle.

However, in the province of Deagan, which is mainly based on plain terrain, Dilin's good luck seemed to have been used up. As soon as the troops came out of the mountains, they were caught off guard and encountered a huge grain transport team of the demon clan, with more than 3,000 people.

This encounter was very unfortunate for both sides. The grain transport team was not a regular army, but a civilian husband collected from the Kingdom of Demon Gods. The mission was to transport food and grass to the demon army on the front line of Valen. There were less than 200 regular soldiers escorted it. When they saw the sudden human army, the civilian husbands were so scared that they threw away their grain carts and fled in all directions. They drifted away from the dense forest and hid grass, and even the cavalry of the Dilin could not catch up. The escorted soldiers were a little tough - because they knew that losing the grain team would be dead - and they fought to the last moment, and no one surrendered.

Di Lin was very annoyed. After the battle, his only gain was to capture hundreds of scared civilians, and seize a convoy of food and grass that had been piled up so high. He ordered the fire to burn it out on the spot. He also asked some news from the civilians: In Pai City, Dussa Province, there was still a large-scale war, and it was said that a very fierce guy named Sterling was still fighting with the army of our gods. But such a small gain was really insignificant compared to the loss of leaking his whereabouts.

Since the traces have been revealed, as if a man would give up on himself in despair, he simply started to do something: hundreds of demons all cut their heads. Next to the tall pile of corpses and burning food and grass convoy, Di Lin left a bloody inscription inscription:

"Please accept the little gift from His Majesty the God Emperor.

The empress, Emperor Lin Jing,"

He no longer hides himself, no longer hides in the mountains and forests. He hung up his flag upright. The army advanced rapidly without stopping. The soldiers rushed on the saddle, eating and drinking on the horse's back, feeding horse materials with horses. Rivers, forests, and villages were left behind one by one. Near the capital of Deya, they encountered the garrison of the demon infantry. The vanguard of Dilin did not even stop and rushed forward to start the war. Then the troops who came to attack followed closely. The demon infantry who had no time to form a formation to resist had to start a field battle in a hurry. In less than an hour, the two teams of demon infantry were wiped out, leaving no living room to go back to report the news.

The army of Emperor Lin moved forward immediately, as fast as the wind and as fast as the fire, so fast that the Dede De Clan Command could not react at all: just now, the news of the Desert Infantry Regiment being completely wiped out, and the bad news of the deceased team being wiped out. Countless unprepared demon teams who had not had time to get notification were defeated one by one, and their power was like the strong wind sweeping the fallen leaves, and it was too lightning to cover up.

There were also many demon soldiers who escaped from Di Lin's army, but when they were asked about the details of the human army's strength and number, they could not say it at all. They just muttered: "Black Skeleton Flag! Black Skeleton Flag!" - This flag alone is enough to make these brave demon warriors collapse in spirit and escape without fighting! Di Lin's black skeleton flag represents the god of death and the flag of destruction!

No demon soldier will forget that under this banner, the disaster brought to the entire demon kingdom. In his crazy massacre, more than one million gods inhabitants died. Wherever he went, the prosperous city turned into ruins, the beautiful countryside turned into scorched earth, and the once densely populated areas are now only crows circling. The demons have deep hatred for the Emperor, but it is also accompanied by deep fear.

In the folk legends of the demon kingdom, the most terrifying demon is Di Lin. There are various processing versions of his story: Di Lin specializes in eating the flesh of children of the gods; Di Lin specializes in drinking the blood of the beauties of the gods; Di Lin kills 10,000 gods before meals every day, and after bowel movements; Di Lin sleeps with quilts made of skins of the gods; Di Lin sleeps with a bed piled up with bones of the gods; Di Lin is invulnerable to swords and guns; Di Lin has nine lives, seven heads, cut off one and then grow ten or eight... and so on.

Of course, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Culture of the Kingdom of Demon Gods, each story must be attached with a brilliant and beautiful ending to show that justice must defeat evil. Therefore, the ending of the story is usually: Our great God Emperor was ordered to go to heaven and finally came out to save the world with the sword of warriors. He fought with the evil demon head of mankind for three days and three nights. His Majesty shouted: "Yimurasa!" and used his mastery. A red light (or white light) flashed, and a loud "bang" sound, the extremely evil demon head of Demon Lin was finally eliminated! So the kind gods lived a happy and beautiful life from then on...

The storytellers who traveled to the village and sing all used the story of the evil demon head Di Lin as the finale performance, which is the most popular show. The residents of the demon clan with low cultural level listened with relish, whispered, and believed it without doubt.

But unfortunately, such orthodox folk stories also had an unexpected sequelae. In the minds of simple-minded demon soldiers, such a conviction was gradually formed: the only one who could defeat the evil Emperor Forest was our unparalleled God Emperor! That is, before the command of His Majesty Yu Tian to take action, there was no opponent of the demon, other warriors, strong men, famous generals, great men...at most they were worthy of being victims of the demon, let alone us.

The west bank of the Graywater River was filled with a terrifying noise: "The monster with nine lives, the demon who eats children and women, the ghosts that are invulnerable to swords and guns, the cruel and ruthless demons, the most terrifying and terrifying monster in the world... Di Lin, he is here!" The soldiers of the demon clan were brave. For the sake of their respected Majesty, they could not fear death and move forward. However, the fear of the demon Emperor Lin was really deeply rooted in their hearts, almost reaching the level of superstition - just like the fear of ghosts and gods, heaven and earth, this was a panic that could not be suppressed with courage. When they remembered that they were going to fight against the legendary demon, almost no one did not feel despair.

A small group of troops were panicked and rushed to meet with the brigade; the brigade's troops were panicked again, and quickly broke into pieces and hid in the deep mountains and forests. The demon commander with some courage said that he would fight to the death with Di Linjue. As soon as the order came down, half of the soldiers were regarded as deserters, and the other half was in a noisy way to start a mutiny. If you run to me, I run to you again, and you are panicked, and you don't know where it is safe.

The rebel troops, which were not very determined, followed suit even more. Overnight, the mixed orcs of the more than 100,000 snake tribes stationed on the west bank of the Grayshui River, scattered their orcs. The rebel soldiers quickly ran back to their village, threw down their weapons and picked up the rusty hoe, and looked honest and flattering, claiming: "We are the most loyal people to the Zichuan family!" The orcs, snake tribes, and dwarf villages on both sides of the road all bowed to welcome the transit of the human army, and they automatically handed over the food and grass and treasures in the village: a very beautiful bone, a three-legged toad, and a half-orc "beauty" who seemed to be as beautiful as a fairy (as dark as a piece of coal, nearly two meters tall, and a long hair on their face)

※※※

Apart from the first day of battle, the Dilin Legion did not encounter any decent resistance. The horse's hooves stepped across the empty rebel camp without any obstacles and took it away effortlessly. The vanguard advanced to the west bank of the Grayshui River, facing the siege army commanded by Yun Qianxue. Here, a shadow of Pai City could be vaguely seen.

However, between the reinforcements and Pai City, there were more than one million powerful demon rebel coalition forces. The eyes were all the gloomy formations of the demon army, colorful tents, and the heavily guarded fortification defense that stretched for dozens of miles...
