Chapter 105: It's All Calculated (2-in-1 Chapter)
"Boss, this group of people is shouting useless slogans, and they don't really come over. It's definitely trying to lure us out. β
The younger brother's words made Saipan's anger subside a little, and he nodded and said, "You are right, they should just want to lure us out." It seems that they are not really stupid, knowing that the terrain is not good for them, but it would be naΓ―ve to try to provoke me to get me to do it......"
"Bump!"
Before Saipan could finish speaking, there was a loud bang in the empty valley, and almost at the same moment, the head of a little brother beside him shattered like a burst watermelon. Everyone was stunned for a second or two, and immediately panicked.
"There is an ambush! Fast! Hide! β
Enraged, Saipan took the lead in hiding his entire body behind the castle tower, only observing the surroundings through the hole in the wall, but after looking for a long time, he didn't find anyone anywhere.
"Boss, it can't be an ambush, this bare terrain can't be undiscovered."
Saipan naturally knew, but was also more flustered: "Bastard, how the hell did they do it?" Could it be a ranged weapon? No! Impossible, how could there be a weapon with such a long attack range and such a powerful force...... It's hard to ......"
He suddenly thought of something, raised his head and looked up, and heard a loud bang, and the stone wall beside him was actually blasted into a deep hole. Frightened, he hurriedly shrank back again.
"It's above! Damn, they ran to the top of the cliff. β
Just as he realized it, the killing cries of the army came from the top of the cliff, accompanied by the deafening sound of gongs and drums.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
"Boom! Boom! Call! β
At this time, they noticed that the hundred-meter-high cliff was already crowded with people at this time, and these bandits were so frightened that their legs were almost weak. Saipan was even more angry and wanted to slash the person in charge of watching. So many people climbed to the top of the cliff, and they were stunned that they didn't notice it at all.
Fortunately, Saipan is not stupid, he knows very well in his heart that even if these people stand on it, they will not be able to come down, after all, such a high cliff, if they have the ability to come down, there is no need to make such a big noise, they can completely sneak attack.
"What are you panicking about? The people above can only scream, and they will come down at all, and at most they can only throw things down. β
"But boss, if they throw boulders down, we won't be able to bear it."
Saipan sneered: "Boulder? You don't know what the cliff looks like, it's all soft soil, there is some gravel, there are no trees at all, and there are no boulders that can cause great damage. They're going to have boulders, and they're going to drop them just now......"
As he spoke, Saipan looked at the eyes above and froze, because he clearly saw someone pushing a huge black shadow and preparing to throw it down. And there is more than one of these black shadows, all of which are rolled out in a row.
"Where did they get so many big rocks!?" Saipan was completely panicked at this time, and was the first to jump down from the city tower, "Quick! Everybody hide underground! β
With his order, everyone found the nearest opening and burrowed into the underground space that had been prepared a long time ago.
This underground space is not only a place to store belongings, but also a refuge for them at critical times, so they have also set up a lot of entrances in order to move quickly.
They also know that the only weakness of this den is the falling objects, although the cliff has long been cleaned up by them, and there is nothing to throw down, but what if there is any accident.
Hiding underground, Saipan was proud of his foresight.
"Everyone's got the entrance for me, don't let them smash it."
At this time, a younger brother beside him asked, "Boss, let's all come down, what if the army at the entrance outside comes?" β
Saipan was slapped angrily by his words and exhaled: "Are you stupid? The ones above are going to throw stones, will they still come? Your own people smash your own people? If they don't finish throwing stones, those people won't come in. β
The little brother who was slapped didn't dare to complain, and had to slap his ass: "Yes, yes, yes, what the boss said." β
"Hmph, you've got a little bit of inspiration in your brains. I don't know where they got that many stones, but it's safe to say that there weren't many of them. After all, it must take a lot of effort to get such a big rock up, and these people will not be stupid. In the end, they only want to destroy our stronghold, and the main force that really wants to fight us is the army outside. β
This little brother hurriedly responded.
"yes, they wouldn't have known that there was such a large space underneath us, and there were plenty of ranged bows and arrows here, and once the stones on top were gone, we had time to fight back while they started to come in. And from that entrance to the middle there were traps everywhere, and they walked in in a formation of a hundred people, and they had to lose a lot of people in a few steps. Haha, I guess they'll be too scared to come in. Boss, do you see what I'm talking about? β
Saipan had a dark face and slapped him again.
"Hmm~ Boss, why are you beating me again? Where did I say it wrong? β
"You've robbed Lao Tzu's lines! Pretend to be smart!? β
The little brother felt a grievance in his heart, and the others laughed.
"Hey, you guys guarding the cell, why didn't you bring those chicks in?"
"Please, what if I'm a step too late and gets smashed into a pulp? It's just a few girls, and the few women on the boss's side haven't had time to come out, so it's not okay to go out and grab a few more. β
The discussion between the two also made Saipan depressed for a while, no, it's rare to kidnap a few chicks, and before they have time to taste it, they will be gone, which is really unlucky.
ββ¦β¦ Well? Chicks? For some reason, he suddenly thought of the question that had just been interrupted, so he hurriedly pulled the little brother who was kidnapping with him in the morning and asked, "When we just caught those girls in the morning, the man we cut down seems to have said something, what do you remember?" β
"Huh? Oooh! The old statue will not let you go...... Well, that's what it seems. β
"Directly under the army? The direct army of the kingdom? Chicks? It can't be such a coincidence, right? How could that group of bandits prosper for the sake of a few ordinary people, and they couldn't get along with us bandits? Hahahaha, no, no, no. "Zero Long Literature Network
Saipan breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't believe that the direct army of the kingdom would do this.
"Huh? Wait, when did there be a kingdom army around here? β
"Oh, boss, you don't know, this border state has recently come to a powerful female lord, who is said to be from the royal family, and she overthrew the Duke of Poka as soon as she came up. She also pulled these kingdom troops into her ranks. That Standing Stone Town is now her territory, renamed Yongle City, and the army is stationed there. β
After listening to the little brother's explanation, a bad premonition rose.
"You can't really be here to save people, are you?" Saipan shook his head, "It's impossible, it's impossible, if it's to save people, it's impossible to throw stones, and they don't know where people are kept, what if they hit it...... Speaking of which, why hasn't there been any movement outside since we came in? β
The younger brother also said strangely: "It's true, I can't even hear their voices, and they were beating gongs and drums just now, why is this so quiet?" β
"......" was stunned for a few seconds, and Saipan's face changed greatly, "Not good!" We were fooled! β
Unfortunately, when Saipan realized it, it was too late, and all the holes had been blocked from the outside, and they couldn't get out.
"Impossible! How could they have come over so quickly? Didn't so many traps stop them? β
Saipan had indeed guessed that this group of people might really be here to save people, and he had immediately rushed out to control the women as hostages.
But he never imagined that in less than a few minutes, the group of people had already entered their stockade, and had found all the holes that could enter the ground with unerring accuracy, and resisted them to death.
No way, he absolutely didn't want to admit it. But whether he admits it or not, he can't change their fate. Everyone tried several times, and it took a lot of effort, but they just couldn't push it away. And then something no one could have imagined happened.
The panic and violent movements made everyone start to feel dizzy, and Symbian suddenly felt that the air here seemed to be getting thinner, and almost everyone, including himself, was starting to lose his breath.
Especially the group of people who had just pushed out their mouths forcefully, they were already sitting on the ground covered in sweat, gulping in a big gulp of not much air at all.
"How...... How could it be...... In this way...... Saipan's vision began to blur, and gradually he felt that his body was floating a little, and it didn't take long for him to fall down with many younger brothers with a stomach full of questions.
The moment their consciousness flew away, all of them felt as if the air had returned, but unfortunately, even that could not change the fact that they could not wake up.
Watching the bandits being moved out of the ground by the soldiers and tied up, Payne and Hans both looked at Shelley, who was sitting in the middle of the field with a nonchalant face, and couldn't understand why she could even count the fact that these people would faint.
"These people are just unconscious, of course, I guess a few of them won't wake up, anyway, everyone is tied up for me, and I can be useful for these living mouths later."
After saying this, I looked at Runqi, who was still crying in Dra's arms, and after sighing at the sour smell of love, I called them over along with several other rescued girls.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. Thank you for sending troops to save us. Runqi said with a panicked look on her face, bowing her head and saying.
Shelley shook his head and smiled, "It's not me who you want to thank, but your cute little boyfriend." It wasn't me who sent troops to save you, it was Instructor Hans and General Payne, after all, their first priority was to protect the masses. Right, two? β
As he spoke, Shelley threw the topic to these two people, and they were not stupid, and immediately understood that Shelley was doing something for them. So he graciously admitted it.
"Yes, the purpose of our existence is to protect the people, not to mention that you are still my subordinate family."
"Home...... Family!? Payne's words made Runqi blush instantly, glared fiercely at Dra, who was still smirking on the side, and then said writhingly, "Will ...... The general misunderstood, we ...... Ours is not like that yet. β
"Isn't it fast." Hans made a rare joke in front of this group of students, "If this kid dares to bully you in the future, come to our barracks and say it, and we promise to teach him a hard lesson for you!" Della! Did you kid hear that? β
"Yes!" Dra, who was called by her name, subconsciously stood up and shouted, which also made Runqi red through the roots of her ears.
Taking advantage of the presence of several parties and important people, and a few idle melon-eating people around, Shelley said casually: "Speaking of which, General Payne, have you announced the treatment of military dependents?" β
"Huh? Military? Treatment? Payne had a question mark on his face, but seeing Shelley's meaningful eyes, he probably guessed that he wanted him to cooperate with the acting, so he replied, "Oh, I haven't found a chance to announce this matter." β
"This is a big deal, how can it be delayed? How can military personnel and their families rest assured in the future? β
As he spoke, Shelley got up and pulled Runqi to his side, "This is an opportunity, Dra's injuries will definitely not be able to move when he returns, and he orders you to recuperate for a while." Runqi, I will also give you paid holidays, and I will take care of him over there. Then take this opportunity to give the two of you a small task. β
How dare Runqi refuse: "What is the task?" β
Shelley took out the paper that had been prepared in advance and stuffed it into Runqi's hand: "Help us publicize the treatment of military families, as the first person who will enjoy this treatment, it is most appropriate to publicize this." The content is on paper, so go back and read it slowly. β
I believe that whether it is a military or a citizen, after knowing the above content, the connection between the two sides will definitely change dramatically. If it goes well, Shelley will be one step closer to the goal of completely mastering the army under his command.
By this time, Scarlet Moon and Momo had already climbed off the cliff. Shelley let the group take Draa down to rest, leaving only Payne and Hans behind. Responsible for counting these bandits and what they are hiding underground.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, you are really too godly, those people are really bluffed."
As soon as he saw Shelley, Momo couldn't help but say excitedly.
Shelley smiled and said to Scarlet Moon, who was also very excited, "How is it?" All recorded? β
"Rest assured, it's all recorded."
Scarlet Moon's admiration for Shelley soared in her heart, and everything developed as she had said beforehand. It was as if she had foreseen what these people would do next from the beginning.
Of course, this is not the case, it is not that Shelley knows how they are going to act, but that Shelley personally induces them to act.
