Happy Singles' Day, everyone who is not singles!

Chapter 519 is a speed that can't be captured at all

I don't know why, but the torches on the stone walls are not densely lit, as if the defenders prefer the night. Because of the darkness, the Meng Yuan scouts hiding behind the stones in the canyon couldn't even see if there were any defenders on the city wall, and they couldn't hear a sound in the surroundings, and they were quiet as if they had fallen into another space.

The scout's eyes were a little swollen, and he still didn't see anyone moving on the stone wall. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then turned back to report.

About half an hour later, the special agent Koktai Menglie personally came to a stop about 150 steps outside the stone wall, found a stone to hide himself, and then held his clairvoyance to look at the city wall carefully. The clairvoyance in his hand was a gift from Li Yuanshan, and the merchants of Eastern Chu were reluctant to enter the grassland to do business, because in their opinion, the Mengyuan people were very cruel and unreasonable. That's why Fangu was so prosperous at the beginning, and the merchants of Eastern Chu brought goods to Fangu and traded with the grassland people under the Han system, which made them feel down-to-earth.

There were once bold Eastern Chu merchants who entered the prairie and tried to open a new trade route, but unfortunately he did not understand the character of the steppe people at all, so those herdsmen did not care about the price he set, left a few silver horns to pick up the goods and left, or simply exchanged them for horses.

If they don't agree, the herdsmen draw their swords.

But what's the use of Eastern Chu merchants asking for horses? If they want to return to Eastern Chu, they must pass through the Great Sui, and the Mengyuan people will never allow the war horses to flow into the territory of the Great Sui, so when this Eastern Chu merchant walked to the border with hundreds of horses in fear, he was stopped by the rangers of Mengyuan, and then said that he was a spy of the Great Sui and detained all the war horses and gave him twenty whips. Although he didn't kill him, this bloody experience made him unforgettable for the rest of his life.

Therefore, although the establishment of the Mengyuan Dynasty was far older than that of the Great Sui, it was far behind in terms of business.

The footprints of the Eastern Chu merchants were all over this continent and once reached the easternmost part. It is said that after crossing the ocean and passing through the kingdom of those huge islands, there was an extremely prosperous empire in the easternmost part, with a territory wider than that of the Mengyuan and the Great Sui.

The merchants of Eastern Chu who have been there swear that the people there are the happiest people in the world, because they have a holy monarch and a perfect system, as well as the most powerful army in the world. If it weren't for the fact that across the endless ocean, the army of that empire could even fight this way.

When Yang Yi, the emperor of the Great Sui, heard the news, he only raised the corners of his mouth, and there seemed to be some disdain between his eyebrows.

It is precisely because the Mengyuan people and the merchants of Eastern Chu do not trade that the clairvoyance that the generals of the Great Sui army have long been generally equipped with is very unusual for the Mengyuan people.

The people of Eastern Chu said that the civilization level of the empire in the east was much higher than that of the world here.

For such a statement, Koktai Menglie also scoffed.

He never thought that there was any country in this world that was stronger than Meng Yuan.

After staring at the city wall for more than ten minutes, Koktai Menglie did not see any defenders walking back and forth on it. I listened attentively, but I could not hear anyone talking. A few dim torches on the stone wall were like ghost fires, illuminating only a radius of two or three meters.

After hesitating for a few minutes, Koktai Menglie glanced back at the people around him: "Go up and explore, the open attack can't win, now it's up to you." Don't be discovered, open the gates as much as you can, and if you don't have a chance to open them, you will hold on to the walls for at least two quarters, and in two moments, I will personally rush up with men and horses to meet you. ”

"Rest assured, this is our mission, and we will not fail!"

The speaker gave a typical steppe man's appearance, with a square face, a beard, and a favorite leather robe of the steppe people, which can not only withstand the wind and snow, but also extremely strong, and it is not uncommon for a leather robe to be passed down for two generations.

"I swear to the Immortal Heaven that tonight I will open the door for his people to return home."

He slapped his chest with his right hand, his face grim.

"Let's go"

Koktai Menglie nodded: "I believe in your ability, when the Great Khan sent you to me, to be honest, I was not very comfortable in my heart, I think it was the Great Khan's distrust of me. But I have never doubted your abilities or your loyalty. Now the Great Khan is calling us back, and you are the key that opens that door. ”

"We're leaving!"

Duo Guduo stood up, not carrying a weapon on his body.

He turned around and beckoned, and dozens of people in black suits immediately stood up. These people were the people who were sent by Koktai Möngke to Menglie's side, saying that they were sent to him as guards, but in fact they were spying on him. These people were Meng Yuan's masters, and they did not participate in the assassination of Luo Yao at the beginning. And because of this, they are still alive.

Dozens of men in black followed Duo Guduo, moving through the night like swift and nimble cheetahs. They approached the walls quickly, without making a sound. These people run in a very different way than ordinary people, they actually walk on all fours, and they really look like wild beasts.

And they are silent, but their eyes are extraordinarily cold.

……

……

A man dressed in black glanced at Duo Guduo's gesture, he nodded, and his voice made a very low voice, this voice was very awkward, and it made people's hearts furious. Then he reached out and grabbed the gap in the stone wall, and as soon as his arms were exerted, he jumped up, climbing up with incredible speed, almost on all fours on a vertical wall.

In the darkness, he seemed to be able to see the gaps in the walls, and every touch of his hands and feet landed precisely in the most appropriate place.

This kind of vision is frightening.

When he was about to reach the stone wall, he slowed down and moved slowly upwards like a leopard that spotted his prey, and if anyone saw him, he would be surprised to find that he was unshoeed, barefoot, and his toes were particularly strong in grabbing the gaps in the stone wall.

He slowly poked his head out and looked up, and saw that there was no one nearby. God has endowed him with a vigor far beyond ordinary people, but because of his life experience, his thinking has become extraordinarily simple. If a normal person comes up and finds that there are no defenders on the stone wall, I am afraid that they will immediately suspect that something is wrong. But when he saw that there was no one, he immediately jumped up, and landed on the ground with both hands and feet at the same time without making a sound.

Although his mind was simple, the experience gave him a keen sense of smell, and he seemed to sense that there was something around him that threatened his existence, so he became a little restless.

But instead of flinching immediately, he watched the darkness around him warily.

Duo Guduo waited below for a while and didn't hear anything unusual, and waved his hand to signal everyone else to go up, at least thirty black-clothed men climbed up with their hands and feet, the same barefoot, the same exuding the smell of a beast. Duo Guduo's cultivation looks very good, a man in black who went up went down a rope, Duo Gu Duo grabbed the rope and the man in black pulled it upward, Duo Gu Duo took advantage of the momentum to kick on the wall and flew up lightly.

When he saw that there was no one around, his nerves tensed.

This is not normal.

There was not a single defender on the stone wall.

Even if the Han people did not expect them to sneak attack at night, it was impossible to leave soldiers unguarded.

So Duo Guduo's first instinct was, go back.

At this moment, suddenly the man in black who was furthest away from him let out a low roar in his throat, and then his body fell limply. No one saw what happened to him, knowing that the special experience of these men in black since childhood had given them an unparalleled sense of smell and alertness to danger, but this time no one knew where the killing machine came from in advance.

The second mistake Duo Guduo made was not to immediately order the evacuation, but to glance over and look down to check the injuries of the man in black who fell to the ground.

Blood was still pouring from the neck of the man in black, as if he had been swept by some extremely sharp weapon. But they didn't see anyone appear, and Duoguduo was convinced that as long as someone was within thirty meters, they would never be able to hide their eyes and ears. But no, they didn't find anything.

Just as he was wondering, someone behind him let out another low roar and collapsed. Duo Guduo was shocked, and at this time, he did not go to investigate the deceased's injuries again, but immediately waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go back.

but

It's too late.

When he turned around, he found a man in a black robe walking towards him with a long knife that was as gentle as water in the moonlight. Because they all have excellent eyesight, they can see the smile on the corner of the man's mouth in the dark.

Dozens of black-clothed people lay down at the same time, and they felt a little steady-minded the moment their hands touched the ground. They touched the ground on all fours, looked up at the black-robed man, and the hiss of a wolf when it met an enemy came out of his throat, very low, but extremely fierce. Wild beasts make such noises when they encounter a crisis, and wolves are the most well-known. At this time, the wolf erected its stiff fur and grinned in warning.

These people seem to be doing just that.

As the black-robed man walked forward, the beast-like men in black stepped back. This posture of stepping back on all fours is not a human habit no matter how you look at it.

Although there was only one person in front of him, Duo Guduo knew that there was no need to stay any longer. The enemy is waiting for them to arrive, and behind this person may be countless feathered arrows.

"It's kind of interesting"

Fang Xie looked at these black-clothed people in front of him who behaved differently from ordinary people, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "I heard before when I was a scout in Fan Gu, the best scout in this world is the orcs of the Mengyuan Royal Court, it is said that you people are specially selected, you have grown up with wild beasts since childhood, and your living habits are no different from those of wild beasts, eating raw meat and drinking human blood, coming and going without a trace, and you are the best scout team." ”

"And most importantly, you are obedient enough."

Duo Guduo's eyes changed suddenly, and he said a few words in Meng Yuanyu, and the few black-clothed people in front immediately rushed towards Fang Jie, running on all fours, like wolves and leopards. Bones immediately turned around and tried to jump off the stone wall.

At this moment, the black-robed man stepped out of a pit on the hard stone wall, and disappeared between the shattering stones, Duo Guduo subconsciously retreated sharply or slowly, his shoulder hurt, and the tough leather robe was cut out of a long hole, and blood came out instantly.

Duo Guduo was startled, and immediately roared a few times, and those orcs followed with a roar and pounced towards Fang Jie. In such a rapid impact state, they were able to change their route forcefully, and suddenly turned around halfway and rushed out of the wall in an attempt to jump.

But what happened next made Duo Guduo's heart immediately churn with a stormy wave.

The black-robed man with the knife disappeared, and when he reappeared, he hacked an orc to death, and then disappeared again, and then cut off an orc who was about to jump down, as if dozens of doppelgangers had appeared, and his eyes could not catch his figure at all. Every time it disappears, every time it appears, it takes the life of an orc.

Dozens of orcs with agile and fast movements were about to jump down almost at the same time, but he stopped all the orcs by moving alone.

It was a slow process to put it into words, but it happened in less than a minute.

This speed cannot be described in words.

At this moment, Duo Guduo felt death.
