Chapter 376: Borrowing the Lion and the Tiger
Go back alive, what a tempting four words.
No one doesn't look forward to seeing the sun tomorrow, even those who put life and death on the line. Although everyone's mood is getting heavier and heavier, these four words give them the courage to persevere.
What's more, there is also a man among them who can perform miracles over and over again.
Tang An!
In the battle of Broken Soul Valley, he designed mental calculation and unintentionality, and exchanged the greatest victory for the smallest price, so that the entire Tali tribe was removed from the Xia army.
In the first battle of the Yellow Earth, it was his clever strategy, using the "immortal merit of capturing the Tang God of War" as the bait, and the remnants of the army as the medium, successfully provoked the contradiction between the two tribes of the Tawu and the Di tribe, and he hid in the shadows to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and annihilated twice as many enemies as himself without blood.
In the face of the Hun army transporting supplies, he still carefully laid out, and with just a few words, he obediently made 8,000 people get out of the way.
This heart, this strategy, has to make everyone say a word.
The current crisis is not as good as before, the enemy army is menacing, and they recognize their identity, and they will not give up easily. This is easy to understand: an army of more than 100,000 people was treated as monkeys by a mere 3,000 people, not only did they not catch anyone, but they also broke 10,000 horses in vain.
Therefore, everyone was nervous, but also had a trace of curiosity: in the face of this almost irreversible dead end, can Tang An still lead them out of the game?
No one spoke along the way, and wasting energy on chatting was undoubtedly a luxury, and if you didn't take one more step, maybe you would have more chances of escaping.
"Hey, am I dazzled, the land in front of me will actually move!" Ji Chen rubbed his eyes, pointed ahead and said.
The weather in the Western Regions is cloudy and sunny quickly. The remnant sun is like blood, and the solitary scenery of the Western Regions in the evening is beautiful. However, as far as the eye could see, the ground seemed to be shaking slightly, like a blood-red sea in the afterglow, and the undulating waves were surging in the direction where the Avengers were.
Tang An looked at it in response, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he said loudly: "Fuck, it's a marching ant!" β
After Tang An said this, everyone suddenly discovered the strangeness of the "land" - ants, ants all over the world!
From a distance, all you see are ants! One by one, they stepped on one another, like a surging army, and their dense and fangs and claws were like a reddish-brown moving ocean, which made everyone who saw it shiver all over their bodies.
Li Dazhuang's face turned pale, and he saw the truth in front of him clearly, and he finally knew how naΓ―ve he was.
Perhaps thinking of the terrible appearance of being trampled by the army of ants, everyone was stunned. Seeing that everyone was standing stupidly, Tang Anxin scolded. There are countless ants in front of him, and behind him are wolf-like pursuers, and advancing and retreating seem to be a dead end.
"Lord Tang, what should we do?"
Li Dazhuang's question asked everyone's thoughts. The red remnant sun reflected a group of men like bronze men, but this time, Lady Luck seemed to have finally abandoned them.
In a dilemma, Tang An's face was full of ruthlessness, and he tore off a pile of firewood tied to the saddle, and said, "Throw all the branches off the horse and block the front of the team!" β
Everyone doesn't know what to do, but as soldiers, they don't need to understand, they just need to obey. In the flash of light, everyone took action, scattering the branches they were carrying in front of their eyes.
"Not enough firewood!"
Tang An couldn't help but stare at the approaching ant army, looked around, as if there was no more combustible things, until his eyes wandered to the carriage behind him, and immediately his face flashed fiercely, snatched the long knife in Chen Buping's hand, and strode over.
This time, instead of gently lifting the curtain, he ripped off the blue curtain and said loudly, "Get out of the car!" β
In the carriage, Mu Rong was still closing her eyes to recuperate, while Su Meier was holding her chin, her eyes empty and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Suddenly hearing Tang An drink like this, Su Mei'er was startled, and then a trace of imperceptible pain flashed in her eyes, and said, "What are you doing?" β
Tang An said: "I don't have time to explain, hurry up and get off the horse!" β
Mu Rong opened his eyes lazily, looked at the impatient Tang An, didn't say anything, and moved out of the car gently and skillfully. And Su Mei'er, who was used to being against Tang An, adhered to the stubbornness as always, sat firmly on the stool as if angry, and said, "The slave family can't go down!" β
"Fuck!" Tang An knew that this was a critical moment of life and death, so he got into the carriage without saying a word.
A trace of panic flashed in Su Mei'er's eyes, she was stunned from the bottom of her heart for Tang An's increasingly rude temper, but she wanted to maintain the dignity of a child of Xia Guo who would never bow his head in front of the enemy, and she was extremely contradictory.
"You... What are you doing? β
As soon as Su Mei'er spoke, she saw that Tang An had no intention of explaining to herself at all, so she directly picked up the crook of her leg and hugged her by the waist!
She wanted to resist, but in a trance, Tang An didn't give her time and reason to react at all. It wasn't until the whole person fell into the crook of his warm and powerful arms that he woke up like a dream.
Slave... Was he hugged again?
Su Mei'er, who came back to her senses, beat Tang An's chest like crazy, and hissed: "Let the slaves go!" The slave hates you to death! β
"If we survive, you hate me again!"
Out of the carriage, Tang An didn't have time to say anything, and threw her towards Mu Rong without saying a word, Su Meier only felt that the world was spinning, but she was gently dragged by a soft little hand, and she landed inexplicably and safely, which was indescribably magical.
"Don't blame him." Mu Rong seemed to see the hatred in Su Meier's eyes, pointed to the distance, and said indifferently: "Look." β
Somewhat confused, Su Mei'er looked at Mu Rong's fingers, and her little face turned pale in an instant.
Ants, all ants!
Such a scene is a nightmare for a woman. Rao is Su Meier thought that she was bold enough, and she couldn't help her legs and stomach tremble at this time, and couldn't help but look back at Tang An standing in the carriage, but saw the latter stepping on the wheel and stabbing the wooden carriage fiercely.
Chen Buping suddenly, he picked up the machete of the soldier next to him, and stabbed it at the wheel: "Brother Tang, I'll help you!" β
"And me!"
Everyone, you stabbed me, and the big carriage was torn apart in an instant. The cut wood was formed in a circle, and the curtains and clothes became the ignition of the fire. Looking at the approaching ant colony, everyone felt like their hearts were about to jump out.
Ji Chen swallowed his saliva and said with some concern: "Big brother, is it okay to use fire?" β
"Marching ants are most afraid of fire, but we don't have enough firewood, so we hope we can force them away." Tang An squatted on the ground, took out a few fire folds, and lit them against the rags between the wood and branches.
At this time, it was almost evening, and the heat of the day had long gone, but Tang An was sweating profusely, as if he was in a volcano.
The ants are getting closer and closer, and in the blink of an eye, they are in front of them. At this time, a few bright orange and red colors finally blocked in front of everyone, the firewood met the fire, and the "crackling" sound continued, and after a while, the rising black smoke blurred everyone's eyes. But even if they couldn't stop coughing and tears, everyone was still clinging to the fire, and no one dared to stay away from this life-saving wall of flames.
The marching ants seemed to sense a threat, and they were a little uneasy to stay away from a safe distance, but millions of ants spread their pairs of giant jaws, and even these bold men felt a chill to the bone.
Ants are afraid of fire, which seems to be a simple truth in later generations, but it has been tried and tested. The gradually burning fire ring is like a natural barrier, and finally the last bit of "thought" of the marching ant army is extinguished, and as the vanguard army tries to make a detour, the follow-up ants follow one after another, as if the food in the fire ring is the air.
Feeling an army of brown insects crawling past her, Su Mei'er only felt that every 36,000 pores on her body were full of coldness, and her little hand unconsciously clenched a warm big hand beside her, and when the ants were far away, she patted her chest with palpitations, but heard the person next to her quip: "Miss Mei'er, what are you holding my hand for?" β
Looking up, Tang An had a teasing smile on his face, and he also scratched his slippery and tender palm viciously.
Su Meier let out an "ah" and hurriedly let go of her hand: "You... How could it be you! β
"Look at what you said, Tang Mou has always been a gentleman, and you have great respect for Mei'er girl, so many pairs of eyes are watching, is it possible that I can't catch your hand? I know I'm handsome, but I still hope you'll be restrained - not next time! β
Tang An reprimanded with a "serious" face, then turned his head to look at the woman in white next to him, stretched out his left hand and said: "Sister Fairy, we are all people from the Great Snow Mountain, don't be polite to me, if you are afraid, lend this hand to you." β
Mu Rong glanced at him lightly, slapped it lightly, and said, "Boring." β
Tang An was defenseless, and was knocked to the ground with just one move. In the laughter of a group of soldiers, he stood up casually, and said with a big hand: "Don't get me wrong, Sister Fairy and I often learn in this way, each other, have, win, and lose." Brothers, let's go! β
The soldiers nodded silently: Just after a trip to life and death, Lord Tang led everyone to turn the danger into a disaster without changing his face, not to mention, there is still leisure to go to pick up girls, it is really enough!
Looking at the big-headed soldiers who were passing by and had ambiguous eyes, I don't know if it was because of Tang An's influence, but the originally righteous and awe-inspiring team of soldiers had a lewd energy in their eyes at this time. Su Meier's face was already ripe, and when the army crossed, she finally spit out two words.
Bastard!
******************
"Dashuai, what do you see that?"
The army of the Xia Kingdom. Mo Lingtu looked through the sunset, and soon saw a "black-brown ocean" on the opposite side.
"That's... Is that... Ant! β
"Immortal Heaven! So many ants! β
Listening to the surrounding discussions, Mo Ling did not change his face and said, "What about the ants?" You, you, and you, rush over! β
The faces of the few people pointed out by Mo Lingtu were as pale as dirt, but because of the majesty of the commander and the mission of the soldiers, the obedience to the military order finally overcame fear, and they "drank" and waved their horsewhips. Several horses neighed timidly, but after all, they could not bear the wishes of their masters, and reluctantly urged their hooves to gallop.
A stunned scene soon happened: a few outpost scouts who thought they were relying on galloping horses, as soon as Bu came into contact with the sea of ants, the war horses under him let out a heart-rending long roar, and then, countless ants scolded along the horse's legs, and a pair of giant jaws greedily devoured the delicacy in front of them, and in just a moment, several war horses and warriors on horseback were drowned by ants.
"Ah!!!!h
The screams that were so terrible as they were at a few o'clock shook everyone's soul. All the warriors looked at the figures struggling in the distance, as if they felt the pain of the flesh and blood on their bodies being torn alive and bitten.
Pain comes and goes quickly. When the ant colony passed, the few people who were still alive were now only a piece of white bones!
Mo Lingtu finally changed color and shouted: "Withdraw!" β
He didn't need to say anything, the scene in front of him was already the best war drum. The 20,000 cavalry turned their horses' heads one after another, turned around and ran away like a plague god, and the formation was many times more fierce than the enemy's charge.
Looking back at the ant colony that was still unwilling to give up, there was a trace of doubt on the corner of Mo Lingtu's mouth: according to the traces along the way, those people took this road. But... How did they escape this sea of ants?
