0363 Deadly Black Ball
Xiao Yuan was anxious, in a dilemma, at this moment he got an unexpected good news, the 200,000 troops used as backup by the Spring and Autumn Ancient Kingdom have approached Quanyang City unimpeded, as long as they pass the last pass of Luomapo, they can be killed outside the city in half a day, and when the two armies will be united, they can easily break through the city!
For a long time, Xiao Yuan could afford to wait, but where did he think that just the morning before yesterday, there was news that 50,000 tiger and leopard soldiers who were guarding the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty 800 miles away suddenly fell from the sky and appeared in Luomapo, blocking the way of the 200,000 Spring and Autumn army.
A series of accidents made Xiao Yuan's head bigger.
He intended to lead troops to support the blocked Spring and Autumn Army, and to attack back and forth to completely destroy the tiger and leopard soldiers, but he was worried that the Aquarius King would break out of the formation at this time and miss the opportunity to join forces inside and outside.
If you stick to the outside of the city and wait for the signal in the city, who knows when the big array will be broken? The longer it is delayed, the more unfavorable it will be to Long Xiaojun.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan's brain hurt, he was dazed, and he was about to fall asleep.
At this moment, an earth-shattering loud bang frightened him opened his eyes violently, jumped up from the marching bed, and rushed out of the tent.
"General, this time I saw clearly, the black ball was indeed thrown from Quanyang City, and only one was thrown. ”
The adjutant general, who had not dared to sleep since the explosion of the first black ball, ran to report the military situation to Xiao Yuan.
"Take me to see it!"
Xiao Yuan came to the explosion site, where a large pit with a radius of five meters was blown out, and there were some more stumps and broken arms on the ground, judging from the charred cloth scattered around, it happened to fall on a tent, and those corpses were left by the soldiers in the tent.
"Be on guard against a sneak attack in the city. ”
Xiao Yuan didn't have the heart to sleep, this kind of powerful explosive magic weapon, if the other party projected it in batches, Long Xiaojun didn't know how many casualties it would have, so he pulled a chair, Xiao Yuan stayed in the front camp, staring at the opposite side, he wanted to see what he wanted to do in the city
About half an hour later, another black ball flew out.
Xiao Yuan's eyes were fast, and the black ball had not yet landed in a good position, and with a leap of flying body, a sword light pierced the night sky, and the black ball exploded in response, exploding a dazzling white light.
"Good!"
"The general is mighty!"
Seeing Xiao Yuan fall back to the ground unscathed, all the generals applauded in unison, admiring the earth-shattering sword.
"I thought it was a powerful magic weapon, but it was just a large five thunder bomb, Vice General Zhu, arranged for a few Qi Realm masters to stay around here, and if a black ball flew in, it would be stopped in the air, as long as it didn't land, see how it hurt the brothers below. ”
"Yes, General!"
Xiao Yuan returned to the camp tent, and after witnessing the power of the black ball, he was ready to continue sleeping, but just when he seemed to be asleep, there was a loud noise outside, followed by the cheers of the soldiers.
"It seems to be blocked. ”
Xiao Yuan was even more relieved, turned over, and a mocking sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Time passed slowly, and Xiao Yuan, who was just about to fall asleep, was awakened by a loud noise and cheers outside.
He finally fell asleep, and another black ball flew over.
In this way, one after another, until dawn, Xiao Yuan did not fall asleep.
After dawn, the black balls flying in the city did not stop, this time some soldiers with a heart have already figured out the pattern, and the interval between every two black balls is about half an hour.
However, seeing the pictures of the masters in the army splitting and bombing the black balls, the soldiers were very excited.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and there was no movement in the city except for throwing a black ball from time to time.
At night, the soldiers who had been tossing for a day were tired, and a black ball came as scheduled, but this black ball suddenly changed its direction and did not throw it in the direction of the Chinese army's big tent, but flew towards the left side.
This caused a lot of panic in the Long Xiao army, and those masters in the army hurriedly chased after them, but they were still a step too late, and the black ball shattered a tent, and the two soldiers couldn't dodge, one dead and one wounded.
"General, no, this time the black ball no longer flies out in a fixed direction, and the brothers are panicked and a little unbearable. ”
Vice General Zhu found Xiao Yuan and reported the situation in the army.
Not only is it that the soldiers can't bear it, Xiao Yuan, who has been harassed by the black ball for a day, is also upset and irritable, the black ball is like a lone wolf, although it can't do any essential harm to the army of tens of thousands of people, but it is elusive, and everyone is in danger by flying coldly, and if it goes on like this, it will affect morale very much.
"Zhang Chaoyang, what do you want to do?"
Although Xiao Yuan had a premonition that there must be some conspiracy in the city to do this, he couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to order: "Pass on my military order, and the whole army will retreat three hundred meters to avoid the attack range of the black ball." ”
"Yes!"
As soon as the military order was given, Long Xiao's army began to pull out the camp and retreat, and more than 20,000 horses led the whole body, and they were busy for nearly an hour before they re-set up the camp.
"It's finally safe, I don't believe it, the catapults in the city can throw a distance of a thousand meters!"
Vice General Zhu looked at Quanyang City at night and said viciously.
As if to slap the lieutenant general of the Long Xiao Army, as soon as he finished speaking, another black ball flew out of the city, impartial, and the landing point was exactly where he was standing.
"Hide!"
Rumble!
The black ball exploded, sending up a cloud of dust.
"Phew!"
When the smoke and dust cleared, Vice General Zhu took a mouthful of the mud at the corner of his mouth and scolded angrily, "Damn, what kind of catapult is this? How can it be thrown so far!"
"I see!"
A middle-level general slapped his head and said, "Zhang Chaoyang keeps throwing black balls outward, the purpose is not to hurt people at all, but to prevent us from sleeping! This is a tired enemy tactic!"
A word wakes up the dreamer.
Thinking of what had happened since last night, the surrounding generals suddenly realized and nodded frequently.
Yes, if you want to hurt people, this black ball won't play a role at all, but it is a fact that Long Xiaojun has not slept all night after being tossed by the deafening explosion, it is obvious that the other party just wants to use this method to exhaust them from tossing and then take the opportunity to raid!
"What a despicable means!"
Xiao Yuan scolded secretly in his heart, but he had to admit that this trick was indeed effective, he didn't sleep for a day and a night, the soldiers yawned for days, if it went on like this, there was no need for the Zhou army to attack, and they themselves would collapse first.
"Two hundred meters back!"
Now that he has seen the conspiracy of the people in the city, how can Xiao Yuan let his opponent succeed?
The tents that the army had just set up were dismantled again and continued to retreat.
Who would have thought that the black ball was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and it still fell in the barracks!
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
In this way, it was not until dawn that Long Xiaojun withdrew more than a thousand meters before avoiding the coverage of the black ball.
