Chapter 41: The Village
A few kilometers after leaving the city, Li Xiang and they stopped, because the Persians had already given up the pursuit, in fact, when they were further away, the Persians had given up pursuing Li Xiang and them, and it seemed that they were happy for Li Xiang to leave.
This time Li Xiang killed more than 20 Persians, many of them were killed by Li Xiang, and the Persians they killed were not very many, after all, they were better at killing the enemy by speed and sneak attacks, this kind of frontal collision battlefield was not suitable for after all, but the seven killings were not useless at all, at least they still dragged most of the Persians.
And with his superb assassination skills, he left a shadow in the hearts of these Persians.
As for whether to go back and kill those Persians, Li Xiang thought that they would consider it for the time being, to be honest, it didn't feel very cost-effective for them to go back, and they might not be able to beat those fifty or sixty Persians, after all, although those Persians couldn't catch up with them, if Li Xiang pushed them too hard, maybe those Persians would take risks.
What's more, they don't know if there are any other Persians around, and if they still have reinforcements, Li thinks that their actions will be sent to death in time.
In the end, after communicating with Green, they still gave up the idea of attacking where, but I don't know that Green persuaded the surrounding city-states through the above methods, and when the time comes, they will bring a large number of soldiers to deal with these Persians, and I think these Persians have been rampant to this point, and it would be too much to say if they continued to endure it.
Of course, the main reason is that the number of these Persians is not very large, less than a hundred Persians are not very many for those city-states, maybe they dare not fight against the Persian army of 500,000, but they still have the courage to deal with these dozens of Persians.
After confirming this, Li Xiang and they began to travel to the Hot Spring Pass, Li Xiang and they went deep into the hinterland of Greece all the way, even if they rushed to the Hot Spring Pass at this time, it would take a while to talk about where the Hot Spring Pass was, maybe by the time Li Xiang and they arrived, they had already fought with the Persians, and maybe even the battle had entered a state of anxiety.
However, Li Xiang's approach is not meaningless, under Li Xiang's efforts that they don't know if it is very kind, many city-states are willing to send troops to fight the Persians together, but the final battle location is not Hot Springs Pass, where is not suitable for the battle of large troops.
Greece's troops are actually not very small, on the contrary, their combat effectiveness is very good, but these troops refer to the entire Greek army, if you say which city-state, almost no city-state can compete with Persia, and it takes a lot of time to gather these troops, first of all, the most difficult is the initial stage, each country directly because of mutual interests and other disputes, these things may lead to a month or two before the formal discussion of troops.
But fortunately, this most important process was forcibly pushed forward by Li Xiang and them, although their methods were not very just, but the final result still seemed to be very good, at least on the surface, many city-states were willing
He sent his own soldiers to fight against Persia with Athenian Sparta.
And Li Xiang and their task at this time is to go to the Hot Spring Pass, the longer they hold on, the more effective it will be for the layout of the entire battle situation, but these are backup plans, Li thinks that these contractors don't plan to fight a legion war with the Persians so honestly, what they want to do is naturally decapitation tactics and the like, but for the time being, the combat effectiveness is not very much, so they gave up this decision.
Li thought that their journey was not very smooth, and they met an existence halfway through, although they were not very tired, and they did not need to replenish resources, the resources in the badge were enough for them to use for a long time, and even the end of this mission world did not need to be replenished, but after seeing the tragic situation of this village, they had to stop.
This is not a very big existence, not everyone lives in the city, and there are many Greeks who live in this kind of village, just like the existence where Li Xiang was before, that is at least nominally Li Xiang's fiefdom, where there are so many residents, although to some extent they belong to the king to whom Li Xiang belongs, but it is not very obvious that they receive the protection of the king.
Generally, the combat power in He Hong Village will not be very strong, and there will not even be such a thing as soldiers, at most, some lords will spontaneously organize some strong men to form some hunting teams and the like, but many lords only have one or two private knights, and even the master of Li Xiang's identity is like this, only one is not very strong Avalon.
And the village that Li Xiang and they passed through looked even smaller than the one Li Xiang passed, and there were no strong people here, because if there were a strong person of that level, nothing would happen here.
Li thought that they were attracted by the billowing smoke coming out of the village, and the few people who were still running away were attracted by the strong smell of smoke from afar, and the smell of fireworks for cooking was different from the smell of burning houses.
Originally, Li Xiang didn't want to care about these things, maybe there was a fire somewhere.
But when he crossed a hill, he saw that there were fires everywhere below, and even in some places there seemed to be some corpses, Li Xiang couldn't help but want to go down and take a look, which territory he thought of, although this was not Li Xiang's territory, but he still wanted to take a look.
He was ready to let Seven Kills go first, but he didn't expect Seven Kills to follow Li Xiang over.
In their words, "We are not cold-blooded animals. ”
At that time, the Seven Killings Boss looked at Li Xiang with a serious expression, and almost Li Xiang was infected by his secretly serious expression.
When they arrived at the village, they found that the situation was even more tragic than they had imagined, it was not a very large village, and in the middle of the village there was a large tree, which was supposed to be used for shade, but it was so difficult to see.
The leaves on the uncle's top have almost fallen, and there are many branches on the tree, and on these branches are a lot of corpses, at the roots
There are also a lot of corpses piled up in the place, and these corpses are not the kind that ends when they are killed, and many of their corpses are broken.
Some people have lost their hands, some have lost their feet, and some people have been beaten into meat sauce by some blunt objects, if they didn't still maintain the shape of a person, Li Xiang would have doubted that this was still not a person.
The corpses were basically men, but they were not warriors, judging from their costumes, they were just ordinary peasants, but these peasants who did not have much resistance were killed by those people, and they were killed in such a cruel way.
"Night Stalker, let's go avenge them."
The Seven Kills Boss whispered behind Li Xiang, although his voice was not loud, but Li Xiang heard anger from his tone, and the Seven Kills Boss was angry.
"Yes, but where should we go to find them?"
To be honest, Li Xiang also wants to kill these guys, although Li Xiang can also kill, but many times it is to protect his own life, in many cases Li Xiang is still unwilling to hurt others, even if he is forced to hurt others, he will directly cut off the enemy's head and will not let the enemy have too much pain, but these people are too bad, they dare to come out of this kind of thing.
The women were disheveled in the middle of the pile of corpses, and you didn't have to guess what had happened to them.
"Judging from the temperature on these corpses, the time of their death should not be very long, which means that the guy who killed these people is not very far away from the song here, and judging by adding the following traces, you should be able to find those guys, and if you can fly into the air, you should be able to find those people."
Speaking of this, the boss of the Seven Killings looked at Li Xiang with some apprehension, after all, that flying machine is Li Xiang's thing, and now there is not a lot of energy left, he is a little worried that Li Xiang will be reluctant to use the flying machine, after all, this kind of thing is very common in the legion, many contractors don't take the lives of these plot tasks seriously, but Seven Kills doesn't think so, these natives are at least very simple, they are not as cunning as those contractors, at least they won't think about how to hurt themselves at any time.
"You don't think I'm going to be reluctant."
While taking out the flying machine, Li Xiang looked at the eyes of the Seven Kills Boss and suddenly felt that something was not right, could it be that he was the kind of person who was stingy? Although Li Xiang didn't want to waste his flying machine on meaningless things, but at this time, he was here, so naturally he had to solve those guys.
"Uh, no, absolutely not."
The expressionless Seven Killings Boss denied it on the spot, how could he admit this kind of thing, it was impossible to admit it in this life.
Li Xiang didn't want to be entangled with the Seven Kills, so he directly started the aircraft and flew into the air, and then continued to raise the height, and finally saw the whereabouts of a group of people when he rose a few hundred meters, Li Xiang knew at a glance that this was the person they were looking for, although he couldn't see it clearly where Li Xiang was, but looking at their Persian costumes Li Xiang knew that the person they were looking for was them.
