The eastern defense line collapsed. The three infantry divisions were all killed by the Demons. Only a handful of people have survived from that conflict. This has definitely become a big deal. Since the establishment of the Empire, this was a military crisis, the highest security threat the government has ever faced.

The fall of the Western Front was unexpected. There has never been a single fraction of the brain. Everyone believed in the Army's strength under Major General Song Zihua, who had a long history of combat and command. Who would have known that in just one hour, the entire front was lost. Easy to open the door for the enemy to take a walk in the Empire and they are coming now.

The Imperial Army Command Center is in turmoil. The military personnel was full of tension. The fall of the Western Front will inevitably affect everyone in the country.

The Military Commission has a headache about this issue. The Demon Realm Crisis had already raised to the highest level of security that they never met before.

The Demon Army uses a never-before-seen strategy in the battle book on The Art of War, using demons to break through underground passages to destroy the Western Command from behind.

The Military Commission forgot to think that in the end, This world is still full of many wonders. There are still some methods they do not yet know. The Military Commission will keep this as an experience in the future or maybe there are no future for them anymore.

Zhao Lingxin, who had heard the news, immediately came to the Military Commission as soon as possible.

The military commission meeting room was full of tension from this defeat of the Western Front. Darkness covered the entire meeting room; no one spoke anything.

Even now, there are civilian meetings in the Government House. The government organized an emergency meeting to find a solution to the current security crisis.

Zhao Ling Xin knew it all very well. He doesn't ask much about the story, pitting into important issues.

"What are your plans to deal with this trouble now?" Asked Zhao Lingxin.

"Your Majesty, we have lost a lot of equipment and our soldiers. The Datang Government is in danger. We need to rebuild our front line battle plan," said Lieutenant General Li Fengyang.

The military commission spent a lot of personnel and budget building the western defense line. When the defense line collapses, both the weapons and ammunition collected are all destroyed. This represents forty percent of the arsenal right now.

The Third Infantry Brigade collapsed. More than twenty-five thousand people died. It was the first battle that the Empire had suffered at this level of loss at all cost. This does not include the artillery, tanks, and planes that had lost in the battle for just an hour.

The Imperial Army at this time was almost unable to stand up. Everyone's hands are throbbing, don't know what to do next. Only had to rely on Zhao Lingxin's decision.

"Your Majesty, now there are seven other Army divisions across the country. I was able to transfer four divisions to Datang Province in a week," said Lieutenant General Li Fengyang.

Zhao Ling Xin listened to all the Army's information at once, then said,

"We are too careless and negligent about the demon army. The Seven Divisions is definitely inadequate to deal with this." Zhao Lingxin calculated the rest of the Empire's forces could not cope with the Demon Horde for sure.

Hordes of demons flowed like a horde of frenzied insects. They eat everything like an epidemic. There are only a few ways to cope now or else the Empire will fall for sure.

"Where can we establish support in Datang County?" Zhao Lingxin asked for his opinion on strategy.

"Your Majesty, our defenses could not be established in time. The demons marched very fast, about forty kilometers a day. Only one of our options is left." Lieutenant Li Fengyang pointed to one point on the map, the former Datang Capital, Chang'an City.

"Are you planning to use Chang'an City as a defense?" Zhao Lingxin's eyes lit up.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the city of Chang'an, which is full of high walls, perfect for protection. The distance from the demon realm. Moreover, the utility system is also fully equipped," explains Lieutenant Li Fengyang.

Chang'an City was close to the Imperial Central Area. There is a good transportation system to a certain extent. Transportation from the capital to Chang'an was much more convenient. The Chief of Staff chose Chang'an City as the defensive point for all reasons.

"Can we use nuclear bombs to solve the problem once and for all?" Zhao Lingxin thought about wiping out the whole group of demons at once. Even if the Empire was in a state of crisis, they always had a spare trump card.

"Your Majesty, we should not use nuclear bombs at this time," the Army Chief of Staff objected.

"Right now, if we use a nuclear bomb, there will be a wind blowing through the south. I am afraid the radioactivity will blow through, and it will definitely affect us," the chief of staff explained.

"I think we should only keep it as a last resort."

Zhao Lingxin nodded in acknowledgment after hearing all the risks.

"So, I want the Military Commission to set up an entire line of defense as soon as possible before the demons can invade even further," Zhao Lingxin said.

"Your Majesty, now we are in a lack of manpower and human resources. We need to enlist as soon as possible," said Lieutenant Li Fengyang. Because now, the recruiting force seems inadequate. Soldiers need at least two months of training to enter the battlefield.

Zhao Lingxin acknowledged all the problems. But the face is still regular as before.

"I know you guys are worrying about not enough manpower right now. But do not forget that I am still here. I will summon an army out for you," Zhao Lingxin said confidently.

Yes, Zhao Ling Xin still had his summoning system. The spirit stones that were collected were kept for this purpose. Zhao Ling Xin prepared to summon a large number of armies.

"I will summon ten armies of brave soldiers. Are these enough for you?" Zhao Lingxin asked.

"Of course, this is absolutely enough, Your Majesty. In the ten Army, it was estimated that there were more than one hundred thousand people. With this amount of force, the Chang'an defense line will be formed as quickly as possible," said Lieutenant General Li Fengyang.

The Military Commission has a better expression. They also forgot that they were from Zhao Lingxin's summons. It was fortunate that only the Empire had enough spirit stones. The collapse of the country is absolutely impossible.

Now that the Empire is facing a massive crisis, Zhao Lingxin, the government, and the commission have already met to discuss this as the biggest threat since the country's founding. Demon Realm was the number one enemy instead of a Martial Artists. In a crisis like this, special laws are needed to support operations.

Zhao Lingxin did not hesitate, signing various orders, approving the scope of the army and government responsibilities.

"I, Zhao Lingxin, request the power of the Imperial Constitution, Section 6. As the supreme commander, The Emergency Orders 44 and 86 were approved to take effect immediately." Zhao Lingxin signed the order.

Emergency Order 86 permits the use of violent weapons such as chemical weapons. And with order 44, this was the second time Zhao Lingxin had had the opportunity to use this command.

Under order 44, the powers of the Cabinet and the Commission were dissolved. Military and civilian powers will be united under the same agency. Imperial Security Council With Zhao Lingxin, Prime Minister of Defense and the leaders of the three armies, a total of six.

Even a helpless parliament has been dissolved.

The Security Council will now take charge of domestic affairs from today onwards. It holds the supreme power of the country.

Zhao Lingxin completed the signing of orders, allowing all parts of the country to move forward with a plan to deal with the demonic threat.

At that moment, inside the conference room, Hong Bao'er appeared.

"I think everyone wants to see this," Hong Baoer showed satellite imagery showing a large number of demonic forces crossed the western border. Invading the Datang government From the satellite imagery, Hong Bao'er calculated that about a hundred million demons had invaded. And within two weeks, many demons would arrive at Chang'an.

"We only have two weeks or so? General, will our defense line finish in time?" Zhao Lingxin asked.

"Do not worry, His Majesty. With the power of the military commission, we can quickly mobilize resources. This is not worrisome," Lieutenant Li Fengyang replied.

However, Hong Bao'er interrupted.

"I think everyone misunderstands. I didn't show you the Eastern Front," said Hong Bao'er.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Lingxin said, curious.

Hong Bao'er did not reply. But zoom in on the northern border in the Southern Protectorate State of Dajin. Showing a group of red dots falling down.

"I would say that the demons didn't just invade the West. The north is also attacked. If you do not manage well. Within two weeks, not just Chang An. But I am afraid that the Imperial City of Shenzhou will also be swallowed up," said Hong Baer.

In the blink of an eye, the crisis had doubled. The Empire had to deal with threats on two fronts. Zhao Lingxin and Lieutenant Li Fengyang were speechless at this sight.
