Chapter 113: Outflanking at the rear

In the makeshift tent, a general wearing chain mail knelt in front of the table, holding a roll of parchment in both hands and said: "Prime Minister, today I got a roll of parchment from a small clan, which is said to have been handed down from four hundred years ago, and the soldiers can't understand what is written on it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"Huh? Pick it up. ”

Behind the table, a man with a short stature but extraordinary temperament put down the battle report in his hand and took the parchment in the general's hand.

"Hmmm! It's ......"

After a cursory look at the contents of the parchment, the prime minister's eyes changed a lot. Although the above text is not from this era, this prime minister is not just an ordinary prime minister, in addition to his identity as a politician and military strategist, he also has the talent of a part-time writer and calligrapher, and it can be said that there are not many people who are better than him in this era.

"Send me General Qiu Zhonglang!"

That night, the candlelight in the tent remained uninterrupted, and the soldiers who kept watch saw only two figures constantly swaying in the tent, and from time to time they were gesturing in front of the marching map.

What was on the parchment, no one knew except two people. But in the early morning of the next day, many people saw a team of 200 elite soldiers, led by a general, quietly marching in the direction of Liangzhou, each soldier carrying a large number of tools.

=========

"General, the tomb has been found! But ......"

Seeing that the faces of his soldiers were not very good, the young general frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" What is the theme of the tomb? Could it be that it was also sealed by the stone? ”

"It's not a stone, there's no problem with the tomb...... But something was wrong with the beasts around the tomb, two soldiers had already died under the claws of the wolf! There was a lingering consternation in the tone of the soldier who reported the problem, because their two hundred elite soldiers were all selected from a hundred, and it was impossible for them to be attacked and killed by wild beasts.

"What! Caught and killed by a wild wolf, do you mean that the wild wolf also captured and killed two people in the face of a small team of five people! ”

The general's face was full of surprise, knowing that they were such a large group, the wolves would have to take a detour when they saw it, let alone take the initiative to attack. What's even more amazing is that not only did the wolf attack, but also captured and killed two battle-hardened soldiers, which simply subverted his influence on the wolf.

"General, that wild wolf is very strange, not only is it different from other wolves, but it also seems to have no pain, and it has a lot of strength, and it can still pounce after being pierced by a soldier with a knife. This is how the two soldiers were caught off guard and their throats were cut by the brute. ”

Listening to the description of his soldiers, the general's face brought a trace of solemnity.

This wild wolf is obviously abnormal, under normal circumstances, wolves are in packs, and they will not attack people alone like this. And wolves are also afraid of death, how can they kill people without their lives?

With a move in his heart, the general suddenly asked the soldiers, "Have we ever destroyed the wolf's den along the way?" ”

"There have been sabotages, General."

"Hmm...... Then it should be the surviving wolves who came to take revenge, don't worry too much, tell the soldiers to pay attention, see any aggressive beasts, cut off their heads, so that there will be no problem. ”

The order was passed down, and the whole team regained its composure and began to dig the burial chamber little by little.

But in the main tent, the young general's face was still not very optimistic, he frowned at the wolf corpse placed in front of him, and began to dissect it bit by bit with the dagger he carried with him.

Tomb robbery is very dangerous, and any small problem can kill everyone, which is the most profound lesson he has learned as a general of Faqiu Zhonglang in the past few years. So in his heart, he didn't completely let go of his doubts about this wolf, but planned to carefully examine why this wolf was so abnormal.

The dagger gently slashed through the dead wolf's spine, and it didn't penetrate! The wolf's fur was unexpectedly tough.

Forcefully slicing the fur open again, the general peeled off an entire piece of wolf skin, revealing the strong muscles inside, and there was nothing unusual about it.

However, when the general inadvertently lifted the dead wolf's skull, he was stunned. Is it really the brain? The blood-red marrow filled the entire skull, full of hideous distortions, could a beast with such a brain really be sane? I'm afraid I'm already crazy!

He originally thought that this wolf might be a tomb guard wolf domesticated by the ancients through some means, but now looking at this brain, it is impossible to control it at all!

A strong sense of foreboding rose in his mind, and the general suddenly felt that it seemed like a mistake to let the two hundred elite soldiers advance directly into the tomb. And this mistake is likely to be remedied at a very high cost.

At this moment, a soldier rushed in and shouted, "General, there is a change in the underground!" ”

"What's wrong!"

Leaving behind the dead wolf parts, the general rushed out of the tent to the mouth of the thief's cave.

To be precise, he didn't come to the entrance of the thief cave, and he didn't dare to go over it only a few dozen meters away, because various creatures were constantly rushing into the thief cave. Vipers, rabbits, rats, scorpions, bobcats, spiders, ...... As long as there are those in the mountains, almost all of them rush towards the thief cave, without a trace of reason.

"What's going on!"

Looking at the few remaining soldiers around him who were supporting on the surface, the general's face was no longer difficult to speak.

If the brains of every creature here were the same as the dead wolf just now, it would not be difficult for the general to imagine what happened to the soldiers still in the tomb, and it can be said that the team he led in this operation was completely wiped out. This is a great disgrace for his position, and he has failed without even a chance to perform.

"General, the last news from the tomb is: whether to take the jade from the owner of the tomb. And then it happened. The soldier who spoke bowed his head and knelt on the ground, because he was the one in charge of delivering the message, and after receiving the message, he gave the order to take the jade without conveying it to the general, and it can be said that the current situation is his fault.

"Jade? Could it be the stone of the gods mentioned on the parchment? ”

The general listened to the soldier's report, and suddenly thought of a term he had deciphered on the parchment. It's a pity that this tomb is now a forbidden place, and it is almost impossible to go any further, and think about the countless creatures that rushed in, even if there are ten times more people, it is useless in the narrow tomb passage.

Fortunately, this time it was not for nothing, and a lot of gold and silver treasures were transported through the relay method, at least not empty-handed.

A group of people stared at the entrance of the cave until there were no more creatures rushing inside, at which point the general exhaled and said, "Fill in the hole, this operation is over." ”

Calculated carefully, I have lost so many experienced experts, and this time I lost a lot.

Wrapped in rich silver light, the lightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and data streams flashed under the eyes.

Then the eyes closed again, and only the light of the nerve connection device flashed and flickered, as if to indicate something.

The possibilities are endless, and the world is unpredictable.
