Chapter 405: One person is enough [Luoxi]
"Brother Phoenix...is it in this carriage?" Roche knew very well how urgent the situation was.
The battle situation on the Wangling front was indeed a bit beyond her expectations; when she took Ryan's soldiers to support, she thought that even if the two brothers were at a disadvantage, they could last for a while - she didn't expect to be defeated all of a sudden.
Fortunately, she changed the combat plan in time.
"That's right, but..." Noah couldn't bear to let Roche see the current Phoenix.
"Brother Phoenix is in a very critical situation now, right?" Roxi said as he took out a paper bag from his arms. "Since that's the case, you can't delay... Brother Noah, do you have a bowl on your body?"
"Ah...yes!" Although I don't know what Roshi wants to do, Noah knew that listening to her is right - after all, Roshi has always been the smartest among his brothers and sisters.
Noah took Roche to the carriage—there was a wooden bowl in the corner of the carriage, which was used by Phoenix when he was taking medicine.
"Ah, Luo Xi!" Seeing the sixth sister who had not seen for a long time, Phoenix, who was already terminally ill, wanted to force himself to sit up. Luo Xi quickly walked to his side and pressed him back to the bed.
"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." Roshi said as softly as possible, and at the same time forced himself to smile to comfort Phoenix: "Get a good rest... and leave it to Roshi next."
"Roshi... were you here alone?" Phoenix asked worriedly, "You don't have a follower so far..."
"It's okay." Luo Xi shook her head, took the wooden bowl and used water magic to clean up the remaining medicine residue inside.
His psychological burden is already heavy at this moment... so don't add more troubles.
Regarding Phoenix's condition, Roche could guess without looking closely - he was too tired.
The paper bag contains the gift given to her by the little girl in the village that was saved by Roche a long time ago - the Flower of Hope.
Of course, the colorful flower has been dried into flakes at this moment. Although it is no longer beautiful, it still has the effect when used as medicine.
As long as you add a little more magic, you can have a better effect than flowers.
Roche crushed the flowers and put them in a wooden bowl, brewing them with warm water: "Brother Phoenix, drink it, and have a good sleep."
Phoenix took the wooden bowl without any doubt and drank it - he believed that what Roche gave him would never hurt.
"It's quite sweet." Phoenix tried hard to drink it all, then smiled comfortably: "And, it's warm..."
"Okay, brother, have a nap..." Roxi gently patted Phoenix's forehead, and the latter's eyes began to close uncontrollably - Roxi now used hypnotic magic, which could better exert the effect of the medicine.
Soon, Phoenix fell asleep - it was amazing that his face had a blush that only healthy people had.
"This... this medicine is so magical, right?" Noah sighed in a low voice.
"She grew up in a place full of magic... not just a simple medicinal plant, but also a little magic inside." Luo Xi explained, "I just instilled a little magic into it."
"Is this...can this be cured?" Noah was still a little unbelievable.
"As long as you take good care of yourself and no longer worry about overwork, you can recover within one month." Roche explained seriously, "Brother Noah, don't worry Brother Phoenix anymore!"
"But in this situation..." Noah lowered his head, "It's all me..."
"Although I really want to reminisce about my brother, I really don't have this time now." Luo Xi said while jumping out of the carriage. "When the war comes to an end, I will return to Fengming City to find everyone."
"Roshi?" Noah hurriedly followed, "Where are you going?"
"Go to stop the enemy." Luo Xi turned around reluctantly and said, but his feet were constantly, "This communication magic is for you, and the carriage team should move forward as soon as possible."
After saying that, a small white ball of light flew out of Roche's hand and landed in front of Noah;
And with the help of Wind Magic, Roxi's figure quickly disappeared from Noah's sight - just as she was when she came.
"Brother Noah, if you walk forward for about a day, you should arrive at the 'wet road' in the far suburbs of Green Swamp City."
Wet Road - It is an important main road connecting the east and north and south; on both sides of this road, there are either mountains or lakes and swamps, and it is particularly difficult to march outside the main road.
"I have ordered the ten thousand infantry and strong laborers led by Rein to dig the road there. By the time you arrive, there should be only a small path that can barely pass by - even that path will be destroyed after you pass."
"Roxi, you plan..." Noah just wanted to ask something, but Roxi's narration interrupted him;
"I'm very sorry, brother... I ordered people to do this without your permission. If any losses are caused, I'm willing to bear this fault." Luo Xi's tone was a little low, "However, in order to prevent the enemy from advancing all the way to the north of the eastern border and destroying the main arable land there, I can only choose to do this."
This has destroyed not only a main road, but also a link between the east and the south... Noah is very clear about what this will trigger; just like blowing up the dumb bridge, the lives of many people will be greatly affected by this...
However, in order to preserve most of the eastern territory, this is the only feasible strategy.
Noah admitted that even herself and Phoenix had to go through a long period of hesitation and contemplation before she could make this decision... Luo Xi actually reacted so quickly? What did she go through? She was unwilling to do anything that harmed others before...
"This is just a temporary solution. If you want the enemy to withdraw from the Eastern Realm, you also need the cooperation of Brother Noah." Luo Xi continued, "Brother, you have a communication magic that can send messages to various cities, right?"
"Um……"
"Brother, order the city south of the Wet Road to retreat to the nearby city and burn down all the granaries that cannot be moved into the city in a short time...including half-ripe crops in the cultivated land!"
Noah was stunned when she heard this - is this really something Roshi could say? Does she know what it means?
Although she could hear the reluctance and determination in her words - but the consequences of doing so...
"Brother, this is something that must be done." Luo Xi's tone was still firm. "If they can't do it, I will ask the ten thousand soldiers led by Lein to help."
