6. Chapter 6 (Catching Insects)
The Tianshan Plateau has developed rapidly in recent years, forming a Northern Alliance, and the Huang Empire will not be unaware of it, and it is always necessary to understand the countries that are about to be attacked. The invincible intelligence collection hit a wall in the Northern Alliance, obviously it is an emerging force, but the protective measures are not leaky, the information that the Huang Empire knows is very limited, and the Western Expeditionary Army has increased its attention, in addition to the original general of the Northern Army Lian Bai Ying, another metal user was also sent, the second prince of the Huang Empire, and the military staff officer of the Western Expeditionary Army Lian Hongming.
The army of the Huang Empire pressed the border, and the mighty soup advanced to the city in front.
The sound of the march attracted the attention of the farmers who worked hard in the border, and when they looked up, the NPC farmers lowered their heads very calmly and continued the matter at hand, as if it was just a fruit falling from the tree into the water He subconsciously looked up, the ordinary farmers whispered, so many people appeared in the field of vision, the momentum was violent, they couldn't be as calm as the NPC, and began to worry about what kind of misfortune they would encounter if they were broken in, one dropped his hoe and fled to the city, then two, three, and finally only NPCs remained.
"There are still farmers who stay outside to farm, is it because the deaf can't hear the sound?" Lian Hongming was surprised, seeing the army pressing the border, this reaction was too strange.
"It's very strange indeed. Lian Baiying looked at the peasants bending over and working in the farmland in front of her from a distance, frowning. As the march passed, I was afraid that the innocent peasants would be injured by mistake.
Hao Hao Tangtang's army came to a place a hundred meters away from the peasants, Lian Hongming grabbed the reins, stopped his horse, and looked up, the gate of the city in his field of vision was wide open, and he was not nervous at all because of the pressure of the army of the Huang Empire, and there were not many soldiers on the city wall, and there had been no change since he fell into his field of vision, as if the ** team of the Huang Emperor who was gradually approaching did not exist at all.
Is it a mystery?
Got a trap in it?
Lian Hongming quickly thought about the hidden meaning.
The NPCs working in the fields do not raise their heads, bend over, and use the army a hundred meters away as air.
"It's weird. Lian Hongming frowned, "Even if the Northern Alliance failed to detect the approach of our army in time, there was still no reaction at this point, it was too strange." His gaze swept over the peasants, and his brows furrowed even deeper, "Even the common people are like this, I'm afraid there will be fraud, don't act rashly." β
"Understood. Lian Baiying nodded.
"Maybe it was because I knew that the Northern Army of the Western Expeditionary Army of my Huang Empire was coming, and I was trembling with fear, so I gave up resisting. Commander Lu Zhai said contemptuously, and the war horse under the seat slowly stepped forward, passed Lian Baiying and Lian Hongming, and walked towards the farmers who were cultivating in the fields. "This kind of untouchables must be launched under the guise of being tricky, the city is already in a panic, and they may run away one after another, they don't even resist, it's really a bunch of spineless things!"
Such a rash move can be regarded as disrespectful, Lian Hongming glanced at it coldly, this kind of guy who can't see his identity clearly and is empty-eyed will always have it. He turned his head and was about to talk to Lian Baiying, when he suddenly saw her look startled, and opened his mouth to scold, "Come back, Lu Zhai!"
Lu Zhai, who was ignored by Lian Hongming, was annoyed in his heart, and wanted to vent his anger on others, with an annoying face, he rode a horse and rushed mercilessly towards the nearest farmer in front of him, and was hit by the immortal and crippled.
"Hey, old man, it's really embarrassing for you to be pushed out to die, but don't worry, I, Lord Lu Zhai, will make it easy for you to get on the road!" Lu Zhai shouted triumphantly.
The NPC farmer didn't hear it, and bent over to work intently, and changed directions here.
Angry that Lu Zhai slapped the horse's ass to speed up, suddenly, something incredible happened, no one figured out what was going on, it was obvious that the horse running towards the front carried Lu Zhai back, facing the Western Expeditionary Army, looking like he was running from the direction of the city behind him.
Lu Zhai's face was full of shock, and he didn't know why his vision suddenly changed to the Huang Emperor ** team, he was obviously running towards that side.
Hurriedly reined in and stopped, turned around, and was furious, "Damn old man!"
Rush forward again, and then the same thing happens again.
It's obvious that he is running towards the city, but in the end, he will suddenly change direction and run towards his own people.
Lian Hongming put away his face full of consternation, pondered, and looked at the peasants who were not frightened by the army in the slightest and concentrated on their work, as if he vaguely understood the other party's dependence.
A group of infantry came out of the ranks, holding β‘β‘, facing the front, marching forward step by step with neat steps, Lian Hongming stared at them closely, and sure enough, the same thing happened again, but this time it was more clear. When you walk somewhere, it's like stepping on a boundary line, and your body disappears as you enter, and when you reappear, you have already changed directions, facing the direction you came from.
Lian Bai Ying was surprised, "What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know, but I have a little idea, I'll try again. Lian Hongming replied.
This time it was a phalanx, nine people horizontally and nine vertically, lined up in a neat phalanx, holding the β‘β‘ forward, moving forward step by step. When the body crosses the boundary line, it disappears little by little, the soldiers in the first row are gone, the soldiers in the second row follow forward, the first row that disappeared suddenly came out of front of them, the posture remained the same, and they were caught off guard and collided with the second row, because they were holding weapons in their hands, some were accidentally injured, the soldiers in the fourth row and even the ninth row walked forward neatly, the third row hit the second row, the fourth row hit the third row, and the phalanx of nine people and nine people suddenly became a pot of porridgeγ
No matter how many people came, they were all in and out, and they were stopped by the ghost wall and were not allowed to go further, but fortunately they did not rush over recklessly, otherwise the collision and stampede would have been enough for them to drink a pot.
Imagine that the general rode a majestic horse, led the army to kill the city with great vigor, but encountered a ghost hitting the wall halfway, and couldn't stop it and instantly turned into a pot of porridge, and his own people hit his own people, his own people stabbed his own people, and his own people trampled their own people to death......
The picture can't bear to look at it directly, because of this reason, it will definitely make other countries laugh for ten years.
"I see. Lian Hongming suddenly realized, "If this is the case, there is indeed no need to worry about the army pressing the border, because the army cannot enter the city at all and cause harm to the Northern Alliance." β
"There are also labyrinth raiders in the Northern Alliance, have they deliberately set up obstacles in the path we must pass?" Lian Bai Ying looked at the city gate in front of him.
"We have long guessed about this, so the imperial brother asked me to come over to assist you in attacking the Northern Alliance. Lian Hongming turned his head to Lian Bai Ying and said, he was not worried about this trip, the Northern Alliance would inevitably be under the Huang Empire, "If it were someone else, it would be really difficult to pass this level, but I'm here, this is useless." β
"Lord Hongming, do you want to use his ability to break through the obstacles? Lian Baiying smiled, "It's really reliable." β
"Maybe it's a metal weapon with the same attribute as him, I also want to see it, but ......" Lian Hongming frowned, puzzled, "The army that hasn't dealt with it until now comes out, and the other party is so confident that he can intercept the army of the Huang Empire with his own ability?"
"If it's such an arrogant guy, Lord Hongming will be easy. Lian Baiying said, she also cares about it, it is too weird to be so calm.
Lian Hongming transformed into a demon costume and used the ability of the demon god but Lin in front of him, thinking that the space would produce strange situations such as collision and tearing of the spatial ability, but nothing happened, quietly, as if there was nothing in front of him, and all he saw was a mirage.
It didn't work once, and again, the teleportation space holes that distorted the space appeared one by one, which looked very normal, but his ability did not encounter any obstacles, nor did they collide, but Lian Hongming felt a strange place, as if the opened space hole did not reach the place he wanted, and there was some force to stop him.
Glancing at the peasants working over there, he decided to make a hole in the space behind him, but the peasants were not allowed to get out.
After repeating the experiment a few times, the peasant was hallucinating and could not be teleported to him by the spatial hole.
Is there a force protecting him?
Lian Hongming set his sights on the other peasants, no matter which one he chose, he couldn't bring people out, and the strange feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger, so he simply lifted the magic costume first.
While the army is pressing, the peasants are concentrating on their work, as if there is an invisible line that divides the world into two parts, like two illustrations put together.
"Lord Hongming?" Lian Bai Ying felt unusual and asked out loud. Even if the other party didn't say anything, she could realize through a series of actions that the Demon God Tarin's ability seemed to be incomprehensible to the current situation, unable to break through the invisible and strange barriers.
"It's so weird. "Turning into a demon costume is still in vain, this is the first time that such a situation has appeared, indicating that the other party's ability is far above him? Lian Hongming looked ahead with a thoughtful expression.
Metalware is not a panacea. Lu Zhai thought disdainfully in his heart, and his dark careful thoughts swelled again, and he consciously dealt with the prince and princess who led the Northern Legion A little more than a few points, as long as the magic power is used up, the metal users are just mortals.
Seeing Lian Hongming fall into deep thought, Lian Baiying's eyes fell on the nearest farmer, thought for a while, rode forward, the scene just now at least exposed the scope of this wonderful enchantment, she could stand on the edge, dismounted, and bowed to the farmer. "I am Lian Bai Ying, the first princess of the Huang Empire, the general of the Northern Army of the Western Expeditionary Army. Forgive me for being rude, Your Excellency will not change his face in the face of the army of my Huang Empire, he must not be an ordinary peasant, right?"
There were several peasants who were still lingering, and now they were the most suspicious, perhaps the metalware users were mixed in.
Disguise and confuse the public, perhaps it is the other party's ploy.
It's no wonder that Lian Baiying is so suspicious, the NPC is too calm, and there must be a demon when something goes wrong.
The NPC farmer finally reacted, stood up, seemed to be bent over and tired, first beat his back, looked at Lian Baiying and replied seriously: "No, you are mistaken, I am a farmer." β
This attitude will only deepen the suspicion and make it more affirmative.
Lian Hongming reacted, and after thinking about it, he understood, rode over, and stopped next to Lian Baiying, but he didn't come down. "Do you want to say that ordinary peasants can be so calm and calm in the face of the pressure of the army and the generals of the enemy country, and their faces will not change?"
The NPC farmer looked at him strangely, "Why can't you?" Red Name is absolutely not allowed to enter the territory, and no matter how many people there are, they can only stand outside the territory. β
ββ¦β¦ An enchantment specially set for me?" Lian Hongming was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that it should not be referring to him, just the same pronunciation.
Lian Baiying glanced at Lian Hongming beside her, and for a moment she thought she was talking about him.
"Go back, the alliance leader has an order, prohibiting the red name from entering the territory, you and those people behind you are all red names, it is absolutely impossible to cross the border line and enter the territory, no matter how much you toss, it is just useless, and your efforts are in vain. The NPC farmer shook his head and said earnestly, "The alliance leader's orders are rules and must be followed. β
"......" Lian Hongming
"......" practiced Bai Ying
If he had given up, the Huang Empire would not have expanded to its current territory.
The Huang Empire has scarce information about the Northern Alliance, and Lian Hongming did not let go of such an opportunity to talk, and he was reduced to the point of relying on a peasant to get information, and he also felt quite sad. Why the invincible espionage work of the Huang Empire hit a wall, I still don't know the reason, so today's attack is tentative, not necessarily to attack the city.
The specific phrase that the other party inadvertently leaked may be a clue.
Lian Hongming suddenly grasped the key point.
"What does it mean that the alliance leader forbids Hongming to enter?"
The NPC farmer shook his head and said, "Go back." β
Bend over and continue to work.
Lu Zhai listened to their conversation in his ears, stepped forward, condescendingly to the peasants, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, "Your Royal Highness, since people can't go in, weapons are always okay, right?
"Stop, Lu Zhai, it's just an ordinary old man. Lian Bai Ying said this, but she was not so sure in her heart, she didn't follow the routine on the first day of attacking the Northern Alliance, and there were too many doubts.
Lu Zhai reluctantly obeyed the order and glared at the peasants fiercely.
Unable to march, the army of the Huang Empire was doomed to return in vain and temporarily returned to its station.
Lian Hongming is very concerned about what the other party said about Hongming, the alliance leader forbids Hongming to enter the territory, and it must be closely related to the inability of the Northern Army to enter.
After thinking about it, he reported what happened today to the governor of the Western Expeditionary Army, Lian Hongyan, the first prince of the Huang Empire.
#δΈηΊ¦, we will make an appointment with the Red Legion!#
