Chapter Eighty-Four: Who's the Praying Mantis and Who Is the Cicada

If the moon wants to rise, the sun will inevitably sink, and yin and yang, black and white have been in opposition for a long time, as is the case with the Mo family and the Gong Yi clan.

If there is a defense, there is an attack, and the Mo family of the city defense mechanism is well-deserved to be the first in the world, but if it is about the siege mechanism, it is none other than the Gong Losing Clan. Like the sun and the moon, the Mo family and the Gong Yi clan also hang in the sky, but they never scatter their light on the earth at the same time. The two study each other's strengths and weaknesses in order to increase each other's knowledge, just like spears and shields. If the spear is sharp enough, it can break the shield, and if the shield is strong enough, it can also resist the spear, even if some people will hold a spear in one hand and a shield in the other, and attack and defense are integrated into one, but attack and defense are essentially opposed to each other.

The moon had risen, and silence had returned to the tent.

The big leader in the crimson big hat sat behind the low case, the case was covered with a simple defense map of the fortress of the tenth day, the alienated moonlight lingered in the curtain of the tent that was lifted by the wind, the guests and subordinates in the tent had left, when he left, the husband said that the equipment was enough to attack the need, he immediately decided, three days later to attack the city, in this regard, the green lion said that only he was the head of the horse, and the missing half of the nose of the instrument shouted loudly, must be the head of the wind and light night in the fortress of the tenth day on the tip of the halberd, Just as the wind and the night did to his son.

War has always been like this, either you die or I die.

There were two gaps in the wall, three feet wide, and even though they were filled with stone and wood, they did not have great protection.

In the world, there is no fortress that cannot be broken, and the fortress of Xunri, which is known as never falling, has been repeatedly breached, and this time, of course, is no exception.

The lamp on the case swayed, dragging his crouched figure under the case, staring at the lame city wall drawing for a long time, he felt that his eyes were a little sour, raised his head, closed his eyes, and a gust of night breeze floated outside the tent, cool and cool, and the people were clear, and there were a few dog barks in the distance, which was a dog raised by the green lion, the size of a calf, and liked to eat human flesh.

"Wang, Wang......"

The barking of dogs continued, but all mercenary legions like to raise eagle dogs, and even tigers, the former scorpion legion raised a red-fronted spotted clear tiger, after the scorpion legion was destroyed, the red-fronted spotted clear tiger ended very miserable, it was covered by the big merchant of Qi Le Mi, made into a majestic wind, and dedicated to his brother, the general of Qi Le Ning.

Perhaps, in the eyes of Le Mi and Le Ning, mercenaries are the same as inanimate goods, when they have use value, they can be praised, and when they lose their use value, they will abandon them as if they were the same.

"The Ghost Car Legion is never a cargo."

He said to himself, beckoning to the blackbird perched on the wooden man.

"Rolling ......"

The blackbird flew towards him and stopped on his arm, he grabbed a piece of fresh flesh from the clay urn on the table, and stuffed it into its mouth, which it swallowed with a grunt, rolling its eyes the size of a bean, and it was as black as death.

"Go, go to the Tenrith Fortress."

"Rolling."

The blackbird seemed to understand his words, and sprang out of the tent like a black ghost. He went to the maid and took the sword off and put it on his back, as he was accustomed to carry on his back, and though he had a fine sword bag, the sword would never hang on it.

"Xiaoyu."

He was talking to himself, as if reminding himself.

The moonlight outside the tent was cold and cold, sprinkled on the curtain and white, he walked out of the tent and came into the moonlight, and the bright moon hung above his head, it was not like a star, it never blinked, it just stared at him coldly, and he was looking up at it. The full moon flows, the silent night is silent, the desolate moonlight shines on his tattered big and bright eyes, and the night breeze slightly lifts his horns, adding a lonely artistic conception to him.

The army was beside him, and the rows of tents were like the stars in the sky, densely packed and dotted. Bands of armor soldiers armed with halberds and torches patrolled the camp, and whenever they saw him outside the tent, they would involuntarily lower their steps and bow their heads. They fear me, but I don't need their fear.

The moon in the sky, I am Xiaoyu.

Hou Zi's maid, Xiao Yu.

He just kept looking up, like a living sculpture.

Not far away, the black-clothed Song Rang stood in the shadows with his sword, looking at him for a moment, his eyes were extremely gentle, and with deep worry, if he looked closely, there were contradictions in his eyes. Gongsun Yibai stood beside the black-clothed Song Rang, he looked at the people outside the tent, and said, "Mr. Song, why don't you tell her Xiaoyu's true identity, if that's the case, she may not be thinking about a person who has died." ”

The black-clothed Song Rang had no tongue, he couldn't answer Gongsun Yibai, but he put the sword with the scabbard on Gongsun Yibai's neck, as long as he pulled it gently, the extremely sharp sword would come out of its sheath and cut Gongsun Yibai's throat, but he didn't do that, he just looked at Gongsun Yibai fixedly, his eyes were so cold.

However, Gongsun Yibai did not avoid this cold and dangerous gaze, he was a head shorter than Song Rang, and it took great courage to look up at this condescending tiger gaze, and his courage was written in his eyes: "We have been paid enough, and in three days we will go to the siege of the city, and after obtaining the fortress of Xunri, we will go west." Now, the Song Kingdom in the west is already sunset, the Song Hou is lying on the bed hanging his last breath, the domestic prince and the prince and the vassals are in a mess, and its subject countries have also defected, it is the time for us to show our strength. The spies came back and said that the princes to the west wanted to see the Yin Kingdom reborn from the ashes, after all, they were originally the subjects of the Yin State, and the Yin Marquis treated them extremely kindly. We will go to Yindi, erect the banner of Yin, kill Ling Yin sent by Song to Yindi, and then attack Song. I think that hard work, heaven does not pay, years of planning will inevitably get due results, and she will become the first female prince in the world. Of course, before that, we have to clean up this mess for Le Ning. ”

"Rotten?"

At this time, the farmer's sword and shield hand, Ji Ying, who had an old face, turned the tent corner and walked in front of the two, staring at Gongsun Yibai: "Le Qi signaled us to find an opportunity to kill the green lion and the utensils after seizing the fortress, so that the green lion army and the red maple army will disappear." However, if he can signal us, how can he not signal the green lion and the utensils? Perhaps, they are also thinking about how to make our Ghost Car Legion disappear after they capture the Tenrith Fortress. For them, this is a real mess. ”

"That's right." Huo Xun, the double axeman who was missing an eye, and the Tian brothers came up, and the moonlight and firelight reflected half of Tian Chong's face, and his face was as gloomy as water: "One peach kills three soldiers, the general is indeed calculating, and it is impossible to escape." Otherwise, how could that profiteer Le Mi pay his remuneration in advance? If you really want to take it first, you must give it first. ”

"The praying mantis catches the cicada, the yellow finch is behind, who is the praying mantis and who is the cicada, it depends on their own ability." The honest Huo Xun opened one eye, carried the big plate axe on his shoulder, and looked into the dense forest.

"Woo Woo ......"

At this moment, the barking of the dog suddenly became intense, and there was a shouting and scolding from the dense forest that shook the firelight, and then a figure was seen undulating in the woods and grass, and behind the figure, chasing a fierce big dog and the crowd with torches in hot pursuit, "Bang! The archer let go of the string, and the sharp arrows grazed the shoulders of the figure into the tree, and the arrows broke through the air one after another, and the man rolled on the spot, dodging a row of arrows, and kicked the ground, taking advantage of the situation to run faster, but the woods were camps after all, and the soldiers who patrolled the army soon gathered in front of the figure. The figure saw that the front and back were blocked, and in a panic, he rolled down the slope of the riverbed.

"Plop throat, pounce ......"

The armor crushed the reed poles, and there was a crackling sound of firewood.

"Take him!" The soldiers chasing after shouted loudly.

"Wang."

The ferocious dog leaped down the slope, its huge body arcing in mid-air, and it opened its bloody jaws to bite the people on the ground. Seeing that the man was about to die under the dog's mouth, but suddenly heard a short mournful "woo", an iron sword came out of the big dog's back, the man kicked his legs upward, kicking the dog's corpse away, the patrol soldiers in the riverbed and the two swordsmen guarding outside the tent had already been alarmed, they held the halberd, pressed the iron sword, and surrounded the man. The man wiped the blood from his face, gritted his teeth and rushed towards the soldier.

"What's the matter?"

The man was fighting with the soldiers, when a voice came from inside the tent, and after a while, the curtain was lifted, and the old man with a high crown and a wide robe walked out with his hands behind his back. Coincidentally, the man happened to be swept by a soldier's halberd on his waist, and the soldier's strength was so great that he swept the man backwards again and again, and spurted out a mouthful of blood with "wow", but this time he retreated, he happened to retreat next to the boss who had just come out.

"Huh!"

The light and cold flashed suddenly, and at that moment, the unlucky boss had already had a bloody iron sword on his neck, and the soldiers were stunned on the spot when they saw that the boss was robbed. The blood dripped down the sword body, drop by drop, and it all dripped into the neck of the old man, but he hadn't come back to his senses, he looked at the bloody face in front of him in a daze, and actually asked with a righteous face: "Who are you, why are you holding the old man hostage?" ”

The man said coldly, "Who are you?" ”

The boss subconsciously said: "I am the ...... of the public loser"

"Male loser? Haha......"

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, his eyes lit up, and he laughed wildly, and then, wiped the blood on his face, but he didn't want to wipe it even more hideous, he said loudly: "The old thief, you help the evil to follow the evil, tonight the evil report is coming, you listen to me!" The one who kills you is the Tieqiu clan, Tieqiu Li. After speaking, he grabbed the high crown of the old man with his left hand, and wanted to pull the iron sword with his right hand to give the poor old man a sword cut in two.

Flying in trouble, the old man was soft, his gray beard trembled, but he couldn't speak.

"Stop!"

A loud shout sounded, and Xuan, who was missing half of his nose, rode down the riverbed from the woods, pointed his sword at Tie Qiu Li, and said angrily: "Tie Qiu Li, if you dare to hurt a hair of the boss, I will break your body into ten thousand pieces." ”

"Tie Chuli, you did this, not the eldest husband, let alone the nobles." With a black face, the green lion parted the crowd and walked in front of Tie Chuli.

"Aristocrats? Broken corpses? ”

Tie Qiuli sneered, he dragged the crown of his husband's lost head, his bloodshot eyes swept over the dense halberd tips and arrow tips, and thought to himself, with my life, it is worth it to lose the life of the old thief. As for the aristocracy, I have never been a nobleman. General Wind, Tiechuli can't serve you anymore. If you are ruthless in your heart, you will take your head.

"Wait!" The green lion and the instrument shouted in unison.

"Bang."

Between the lightning and flint, the screech of sharp arrows pierced the sky.
