Chapter 457: The Conspiracy of the Capital
For three days in a row, the heavy snow stopped suddenly, and the wind and waves were calm.
Since fighting with Prince Jidu, Zhou Qingsha has been restless, and she can't cultivate at ease, almost every other hour, she has to go to the city tower to inspect and observe the movements of the desolate army.
Once Nanyan Town is lost and conquered by the Desolate Clan, hundreds of thousands of people will be killed under the iron hooves of the Desolate Army, slaughtered and sacrificed at the blink of an eye.
So Zhou Qingsha didn't dare to be slacking off and took it lightly.
But in the past few days, the army of the desolate tribe has died down, and there is no intention of attacking the city, which is puzzling.
The town of Nanyan has built a tall wall, which is extremely strong, and there are thousands of crossbows, trebuchets, a large amount of fire oil, iron juice, and sandalwood......
The entire Nanyan Town has reached the defense system of Nanyang City, which can be said to be impregnable.
The army of the desolate tribe is not good at siege battles, and once they come to attack, they will definitely pay a heavy price.
However, Prince Jidu has stolen the righteousness of humanity, knows how to arrange troops, and is proficient in the essentials of the eight formations of Wuhou, and will never attack and take it by force, so he must be brewing some scheme.
At this time, Zhou Qingsha climbed the tall city wall again: "What's the matter?
"Back to the county lord, everything is as usual. The gatekeeper said immediately.
Zhou Qingsha nodded, and then raised her eyes to look at the desolate camp ten miles away.
I saw that in the camp of the desolate tribes, the smoke was curling and rising, and there was a smell of meat wafting in the air.
At this moment, it was noon, and the army of the Desolate Clan was eating, and some experienced soldiers could even smell what kind of meat it was from this smell.
"The flesh-eaters are brave and fierce, the grain eaters are wise and skillful, the gas eaters are gods and long-lived, and the non-eaters are immortal and godly. ”
The reason why the desolate tribe is strong in flesh also has a lot to do with its diet.
Terrans also eat meat, but this is not the main thing, there are other delicacies of the mountains and seas.
No matter how powerful the master is, he must eat to replenish his physical consumption and maintain the normal operation of various body functions.
The better you eat, the stronger your flesh becomes.
However, once the cultivation reaches the transcendent sainthood, you can "conquer the valley", break the limit of life, obtain a long life, and make the gods live long.
And the power of ghosts and immortals, cultivation reaches a high and profound realm, the soul is separated from the physical body, does not eat or drink, is detached from nature, and is immortal and divine, which is even more subtle.
She took a deep breath and suddenly frowned, smelling something unusual.
"Prince Jidu said that in three days, he will break Nanyan Town, but he is not just talking, now that three days have passed, there is no movement at all?"
For some reason, her heart became more and more uneasy.
Pedal Pedal ......
At this moment, a hurried footsteps sounded, and I saw the scout general Hao Zhang coming quickly, kneeling on the ground: "County Lord, I just found out the news, the 50,000 troops of the Desolate Clan left the camp the night before yesterday and didn't know where to go?"
"What?" Zhou Qingsha was taken aback, and then looked at the desolate camp again, with a contemplative look in his eyes.
"County Lord, could it be that the 50,000 army of the Desolate Clan wants to bypass Nanyan Town and carry out a sneak attack?" Nanyang General Pei Zhao's eyes flashed and he said.
"The soldiers and horses of the entire Nanyang City have gathered in Nanyan Town, if these 50,000 desolate clan troops bypass Nanyan Town and take Nanyang City directly, then Nanyang City will not be able to resist it at all. ”
Han Yanqing, the lord of Nanyang City, showed a look of deep worry: "Once Nanyang City is lost, the army of the desolate clan will attack back and forth, and Nanyan Town will be in danger. ”
"County Lord, this may also be an opportunity, since the Desolate Clan army is divided into two routes and there are 50,000 fewer people, then we will immediately open the city wall, take the opportunity to enter the Desolate Clan camp, and wipe out all the remaining Desolate Clan army. ”
"Don't act rashly! This may be the reason why the Desolate Clan has set up a suspicious formation, the purpose is to lure us out of the city, and once we take the initiative to attack, it is very likely that we will be ambushed. ”
"Now that the enemy situation is unknown, everything has to be done cautiously, I think it is better to wait and see what happens, and send more scout battalions to find out the situation and make plans. ”
"How can indecision achieve great things?"
"Hao Zhang, the 50,000 desolate clan army has left the camp, and the movement must be not small, why did you only find out until now and come to report it? Are you derelict in your duties and slack off in military affairs?"
……………………
In an instant, those generals and strategists expressed their opinions one after another, and suddenly divided into two factions, one main battle and the other main defense, arguing with each other, red faces.
There are even some generals who point the finger at Hao Zhang and the scout camp, as if they are faintly jealous of the scout camp in the limelight.
Hao Zhang obtained a "Ten Perfection Great Tonic Pill", which was eyed by people.
"County Lord, this is indeed a dereliction of duty on the part of the last general, please punish the County Lord!" Hao Zhang did not argue, no matter what twists and turns there were, such important information was not discovered, and he did have a huge responsibility.
"Prince Jidu, what do you want to do?" Zhou Qingsha looked at the desolate camp in the distance as if she hadn't heard everyone's voices, and her mind was full of thoughts and thoughts.
Although she had only had a very brief contact with Prince Jidu, she couldn't even talk about any contact, because it was just a puppet of Prince Jidu.
However, she already knew some of the temperaments of Prince Jidu, this person was very confident, very arrogant, superior in wisdom, and unfathomable.
Dare to tell her all the essence of the second change of blood and spirit in "Nine Changes of the Ancient Gods", it is not something that ordinary people can do.
Since he released his words and said that he would break Nanyan Town in three days, it was impossible for him to bypass Nanyan Town and attack Nanyang City.
And if you want to bypass Nanyan Town, it is not a simple matter, you need to cross the mountains and mountains, wade across the river, the road is very difficult, there are many uncertain factors in it, and the gains outweigh the losses.
"The 50,000 army quietly left the desolate camp, and the scout camp didn't get the news until now, which is definitely not the dereliction of duty of the scout camp, but the prince of Jidu obstructed it. ”
No need for suspicious people, no need for suspicious people, Hao Zhang's ability is obvious to all, and she has won Zhou Qingsha's trust, she has no doubts.
"Fifty thousand troops, is it ...... Not good!"
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, as if she had thought of something, her face changed greatly, and she hurriedly said: "Quickly beat the drum and command the whole army!"
Woo......
But at this moment, a low horn sound came out of the barren camp, forming a strong sound wave, shaking the ice and snow for thousands of miles and falling from a high place.
Then, there was a strong shouting of killing between heaven and earth.
Countless desolate clans rushed out of the camp, thousands of horses roared in unison, hooves rolling, stirring up flying snow all over the sky, and rushed towards Nanyan Town.
Knock knock knock......
War drums also sounded in Nanyan Town, and the drums were earth-shattering, like thunder.
Whoosh ......
In an instant, on the city wall, all the cloud crossbows opened their bows in unison, and the bowstrings vibrated and let out an amazing roar that made people's hearts tremble.
A long arrow flew out, turning into a black and white impermanence to ask for life, and the desolate warriors and horses were strung on the arrows and shot to the ground.
Collapse! Collapse!
All the trebuchets also started, projecting heavy boulders one by one, instantly smashing countless desolate warriors into flesh.
In just ten breaths, thousands of desolate tribes died.
However, among the army of the desolate tribe, there are also strong men, holding big bows, and their archery skills are exquisite, and every time an arrow is shot, a body falls on the city wall.
The bow and crossbow weapon became the most advantageous instrument at this moment, killing people and killing them in an instant.
At this moment, the desolate army behind them rushed to a safe distance, and stopped where the cloud crossbow could not reach.
Immediately afterward, another figure shook and emerged.
Zhou Qingsha's eyes froze, and she sighed in her heart, what she was most worried about had happened.
I saw countless people tied up with ropes all over their bodies, escorted by the army of the desolate clan, and came to the front of Nanyan Town.
"This is ......" On the city wall, when everyone saw this scene, their faces changed drastically, and they gasped.
These people are all people who live in remote villages and have not had time to evacuate Nanyan Town, I am afraid that there are tens of thousands of people, densely packed and countless, and now they have all been arrested by the desolate tribe.
The crossbow stopped, the trebuchet stopped, and all attacks stopped at this moment.
"Could it be that the Desolate Clan wants to threaten us with the lives of these people to surrender?" said a general.
"County Lord, you must not surrender, once Nanyan Town is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable, and hundreds of thousands of people will be slaughtered by the Desolate Clan. ”
A slightly older general spoke, his face revealing a cold-blooded and ruthless color: "On the battlefield, you must not be soft-hearted, everything should be based on the overall situation, the desolate clan just wants to use the weakness of human nature to attack, its heart can be punished, you must immediately release arrows and shoot to kill." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
However, no one came forward to refute it, because it is an indisputable fact.
Only in this way can we resist the attack of the desolate clan.
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Qingsha's body, waiting for her order.
"Alas......"
Zhou Qingsha sighed: "Nanyan Town can't hold it, let's withdraw!"
If it was Prince Jidu's plan, it would be good if it was just like this, but unfortunately it was not, she already knew exactly what Prince Jidu was going to do, so she didn't give any hope, and immediately gave the order to retreat.
If you continue to stick to Nanyan Town, I am afraid that there will only be a dead end, or even the whole army will be wiped out.
Because after a while, Nanyan Town will become a dead town, a Jedi.
"County Lord!"
No one thought that Zhou Qingsha would give the order to retreat, and immediately exclaimed.
"This is a military order!" Zhou Qingsha said coldly.
The military order was like a mountain, and no one dared to disobey it, so everyone had to turn around and pack up and prepare to evacuate.
"Miss, you don't have to be sentimental, war is like this, cruel and violent, there is no mercy to speak of, their death is a predestined thing. ”
Zhou Zhong opened his mouth and said.
