Chapter 60: Whereabouts Exposed
The night is boundless, and the surrounding sounds are silent, revealing a bit of suffocating depression. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
400 living dead reappeared outside the surrounding cities, all dressed in black, like ghosts in the night, with only a pair of gray-white, lifeless eyes, exposed, looking abrupt and eerie.
This group of living dead was all composed of former members of the Temple Army, led by Liu Xuzhou, a black shogi, and Yu Qingshan, Huang Chunshu, Wei Qinglan and others were among them. After burning the grain and grass, they did not return to the camp at all, but found a dense forest nearby and hid in the trees, so the Kasha army searched every inch of the surrounding land, but they did not realize that the culprits of these burning grain and grass were lurking under their noses.
Liu Xuzhou and the others were divided into four groups, and under the cover of night, they quickly approached the city where grain was hoarding, and the purpose of their action tonight was to burn the grain and grass in the city. However, both sides knew at this time that without the food and grass in the city, the Kasha army would be cornered. Therefore, Xia Canglang left tens of thousands of garrisons in each city, and clearly informed that if the grain and grass were burned again, everyone would be punished, which caused the defenders of each city to be highly nervous for this, heavily armed, heavily guarded, and the city gates were brightly lit and patrolled.
The black shogi is cunning and cunning, and Liu Xuzhou is naturally not honest. He waited outside the city with his people, patiently observing the movements, and waited until the second half of the night before he began to act.
In the middle of the night, he had 20 living dead ambush around the city, and threw oil bombs at the city gates, and the huge explosion ignited the city gates everywhere, attracting the attention of the defenders, who stood at the head of the city and looked down, only to see that there were constantly figures shaking in the darkness, and they could not see how many people and horses were. Seeing this, the defenders did not dare to open the city gate, and while desperately fighting the fire, they shot arrows aimlessly at the city, and no one noticed that in the darkness of the corner of the city wall, there was a black shadow who was using his hands and feet together, slowly climbing towards the city.
Liu Xuzhou is a reformer, and his metal limbs can easily grasp the cracks in the city wall. The Kasha side were ordinary soldiers, and it was impossible to imagine that someone would climb the wall with the strength of his hands.
The other living dead, seeing that Liu Xuzhou had reached the edge of the city, rushed towards the city gate with a loud shout, instantly attracting the attention of all the city heads, and the soldiers defending the city opened their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at the living dead below, desperately attacking. The vitality of the living dead is very tenacious, it is difficult to be killed by ordinary arrows, and several of the living dead, even shot through the neck, are still jumping around there, making the defenders above think they are dazzled.
Between the lightning and flint, Liu Xuzhou was like a feather, gently falling on the top of the city, and then with a slight touch under his feet, he fell into the city again. In the process of falling, he had seen the situation ahead clearly. As soon as it hit the ground, it was like a puff of smoke, hiding in the shadows and rushing towards the center of the city.
He did not make a move immediately, but kept observing the surroundings, and saw that in the central square, on both sides of the street, and even in many houses, a large number of sacks were stacked together, densely turned, stacked like a mountain, and covered with waterproof tarpaulin, and it was obvious that all of them were grain.
The noise outside the city was constantly heard, and a large number of soldiers fighting with open fire also appeared inside the city. Liu Xuzhou didn't dare to startle the snake, stopped and hid all the way, and slowly approached the central square, the largest grain and grass hoarding place in the city.
At this time, a large number of soldiers had gathered in the square, surrounding the grain piles, and everyone remembered Xia Canglang's order and watched around vigilantly.
Liu Xuzhou secretly looked at the grain pile behind the soldier, so much food, it takes at least 40 oil bombs to solve the problem, but he only has 10 on his body, and he needs help from others.
Thinking of this, Liu Xuzhou took out two oil fire bombs, pulled the fuse, and then rushed out of the darkness, threw his arms one after another, threw the oil fire bombs into the crowd, and then ran away.
The huge explosion killed several of the defenders, and the hot oil burst into all directions with the explosion, quickly igniting a group of surrounding objects, including the grain pile. The Kasha soldiers had never seen such a strange weapon before, and were speechless by the scene that was happening in front of them. It wasn't until a roaring fire erupted from the grain pile that they suddenly realized that the enemy had entered the city.
They shouted and took water from the cistern to extinguish the fire, trying to extinguish the fire that had not yet spread, but when the oil was ignited, it was difficult to extinguish it with water at once, and it was necessary to cover it with sand.
"Hurry up and take the soil and sprinkle it on it!" Seeing that the flames could not be extinguished, one of the generals shouted violently.
When the soldiers heard the general's words, they hurriedly took sand from elsewhere and sprinkled it on the fire.
"Hurry up and catch that person, no, kill me directly!" Another general brandished a weapon and led his men to chase Liu Xuzhou.
Liu's aim was to create chaos in the city, jumping up and down along the streets, as dexterous as an ape, and then throwing the oil bombs on his body to different grain hoarding areas. When the oil bombs were used up, he went to grab the torches from the soldiers, and then used the torches to ignite the grain and grass elsewhere.
For a time, the city was full of people shouting and scolding, chasing after him, but none of them could catch up with him.
At the same time, the soldiers at the head of the city saw the fire burning in the city, and thought that the enemy had infiltrated the city and set fire to the food, and they were immediately frightened, but the living dead outside the city took advantage of their distraction and crawled along the four feet of the city wall again.
After these people entered the city, they also did not do it immediately, but like Liu Xuzhou, they hid in the corner, and only after seeing the situation clearly, did they make their own moves. Among them, the target of the square's food hoarding was too obvious, and it became a key target of care, and at least 20 oil bombs were dropped here.
As they came and went, more and more people crawled into the city, and the defenders of the city were played around by them, and the food and grass were almost burned. When the defenders saw that the tide was turning, they took out their anger on the living dead, who were not the enemies of the living dead, but like hungry wolves, risking their lives. After several living dead people were accidentally knocked down by them, they couldn't break free at all, and they were torn and bitten and their bodies were torn and torn alive.
Seeing this, Liu Xuzhou hurriedly let out a long howl, reminding everyone to start retreating. When the remaining living dead heard the roar, they jumped up to the city, jumped out of the city, and then ran to the designated place.
While running wildly, Liu Xuzhou suddenly heard that the iron cavalry was like thunder, and it was actually a large group of cavalry lightning from far and near, surrounding himself and everyone.
These cavalrymen and horses, covered with armor, holding heavy and shiny steel spears in their hands, in a strict formation, awe-inspiring momentum, in the face of the encirclement of the living dead, undisguised murder.
It was the Kasha Heavy Cavalry Legion who came, for the generals, Xia Kongtong!! (To be continued.) )
