Chapter 5: Two Arrows to Destroy the Beast King
With an earth-shattering roar, the huge underground tunnel was blown up by black powder, and thousands of gluttonous beast soldiers were buried alive underground. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info saw the pothole found ten kilometers south of the Great Wall that was about to penetrate, and the left and right and the soldiers broke out in a cold sweat.
"This time it's really thanks to the palace marshal's cleverness, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." The other generals of the three armies were completely convinced, if it weren't for Zuo Xiaoyou's early discovery that the gluttony might dig a tunnel to break through the Great Wall, so that they could find the tunnel that the gluttony dug in time, I am afraid that these gluttony would have broken through the Great Wall and advanced towards Bianliang.
Once hundreds of thousands of gluttony pour into Bianliang, it will be ruined. Zuo Xiaoright's move can be said to have saved countless people in the world.
Zuo Xiaoyou was also a little afraid, he didn't expect that Tao Tao was so smart that he actually knew how to dig tunnels to break through the defense line of the Great Wall. Although the Great Wall is majestic, it cannot block the underground passage at all. What scared him even more was the ability to dig holes, thousands of Taotao actually dug a tunnel more than ten kilometers long in just ten days, much faster than manpower.
"It's not an easy time yet." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "There are a lot of gluttony, maybe it is possible to dig other tunnels, and the soldiers need to step up their patrols outside the Great Wall, so as not to let the gluttonous conspiracy succeed." ”
"Yes, Lady Palace!"
With this move, Zuo Xiaoyou established his prestige in the army in one fell swoop, and the position of the palace marshal was also more stable. The gluttonous beast king found that his plan was seen through and lost thousands of beast soldiers, and immediately became furious, leading hundreds of thousands of beast soldiers to attack the city again at any cost, but this time the shadowless forbidden army used hot air balloons and constantly bombed at high altitude in the gluttonous camp, causing a large number of deaths of gluttonous beast soldiers. And the gluttonous beast king has nothing to hide, if it weren't for the guards to guard, I'm afraid that he would have been blown up and killed.
After more than two hours in Miyagi like this, the gluttonous beast king was afraid that he would accidentally die, so he immediately ordered a retreat. Although the casualties of gluttony this time were not as good as the first time, the nearly 100,000 casualties still hurt gluttony's vitality. Since the battle, the gluttonous beast soldiers have died more than 200,000, almost half of the damage, if it continues like this, the human race will achieve an unprecedented brilliant victory, but both the human and gluttonous understand that the battle is not until the end, and the outcome is not yet known.
But the situation is already on the side of humans, and the way of digging tunnels has been seen by humans, and it will be difficult for the gluttonous beast king to come out like this even if he wants to do it again. If it were to be attacked, the Great Wall would be too majestic, and the black powder of the human race seemed to be in an endless supply, which was the main reason for the large number of casualties suffered by the gluttony. The worst thing is that human beings actually invented such a thing as a hot air balloon. Although the gluttony has a strong jumping power, it can only jump to a height of three or five meters at most, while the hot air balloon can fly at an altitude of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters. Standing in the air and throwing explosives packets, it is not too easy to kill gluttony.
During this period, Zuo Xiaoyou has been sending hot air balloon bombing troops to observe the dynamics of gluttony outside the city wall, and by the way, he will send explosives packs to gluttony when he has the opportunity, so that they can enjoy the human 'enthusiasm' for them.
After four or five days like this, the Gluttonous Beast King was almost going crazy. These human beings are so hateful, they have invented such a terrible black powder technology in just sixty years, if they are given another sixty years, wouldn't they be even more terrifying?
Thinking of his mission to Earth, the Gluttonous Beastmaster felt that he should do something. So on the sixth day, when the hot air balloon troops went out of the city to investigate the movements of the gluttony, as they had done a few days ago, they found that the gluttony had disappeared.
"Why is gluttony gone?" The Eagle Army general standing on the hot air balloon had a puzzled face, and then used a clairvoyant mirror to look at the footprints left by the gluttony, and found that they seemed to have gone in the direction of the Khitans.
“……”
The general of the Eagle Army immediately returned to the ship and informed Zuo Xiaoyou of the news as soon as possible.
"You mean that the gluttony went to the Liao Kingdom of the Khitans?" Zuo Xiaoyou was very surprised, because from historical records, gluttony would only attack the residents of the orthodox dynasty in China, and there was no offense against those northern alien tribes, but this time gluttony actually no longer attacked the Great Song Dynasty, but went to attack the Liao State?
Everyone present looked at each other, wondering what was crazy about this glutton?
But......
"Hey, hey, hey......" The Tiger Army general smiled very sinisterly: "Okay! This Liao country is in trouble with my Great Song Dynasty everywhere, this time let the gluttony teach them a good lesson, if there is no Liao State in the future, the territory of my Great Song Dynasty will expand a lot. ”
Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "Liao doesn't have the Great Wall, even if it is occupied by us, how will we face gluttony after sixty years?" ”
That's just as well. The generals of the Tiger Army couldn't laugh, in comparison, the Khitans are much easier to deal with than gluttony, at least everyone is human, and when the time comes, everyone will rely on their abilities, whoever wins will be the leader, and they will not necessarily die. But gluttony can eat people, no one can survive in front of gluttony, if the Khitans are really extinct, the Great Song Dynasty occupies a vast territory, but in the face of gluttonous attacks, how to guard?
Can't be guarded! So there is nothing to be happy about, but to be worried.
"Palace, what should we do? Do you go out of the city to help the Khitans kill gluttony? Lin Mei asked.
Zuo Xiaoyou didn't answer immediately, and bowed his head in contemplation.
"It's still time to destroy the Beastmaster." Wang Junshi came out of the crowd and said: "The palace marshal has five pairs of archery, you can take a hot air balloon, prepare enough fuel, go to the gluttonous array, and use the bow and arrow to tie the black powder to blow up the beast king to death, so the power of gluttony can be removed." ”
Hearing this, Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head and said, "The gluttonous beast king is guarded by beast soldiers, and those beast soldiers protect the beast king impenetrable, even if the arrow is accurate, it will be blocked by those beast soldiers." ”
"What the marshal said is true." Wang Junshi nodded, and then said with a smile: "But the palace marshal forgot one thing. ”
"Oh?"
……
An hour later, Zuo Xiaoyou and Lin Mei took off in a hot air balloon and headed straight for Liaoguo. With the rare southerly wind, the hot air balloon was faster than usual, catching up with the gluttonous army of Khitans who were hunting and killing before dark.
Through the clairvoyant mirror, Zuo Xiaoyou saw the Beastmaster who was being fed by the gluttonous beast soldiers in the center of the gluttony. It's very similar to a bird feeding its own child, but when the food changes from an insect to a human, it feels completely different.
Lin Mei's eyes were a little red, not sad, but angry.
Zuo Xiaoyou calmly tied the magnet to the arrow, and then tied the black powder to the other arrow, and said lightly: "The history of gluttony will end today!" ”
Lin Mei turned her head to look at Zuo Xiaoyou, and said with some anxiety: "The arrow is too small, my throwing gun will be more accurate with a magnet." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou glanced at her and smiled slightly: "The speed of the spear is not as good as the arrow, the airflow is unstable at this time, and the spear is likely to be affected, and the possibility of deviation is higher than that of the arrow." So here I go! I have faith in myself! ”
Seeing Zuo Xiaoyou say this, her eyes were also very sharp, and Lin Mei kept silent. As a childhood sweetheart who grew up together, she knows Zuo Xiaoyou better than anyone else, and when Zuo Xiaoyou says very seriously that he can do it, he will definitely be able to do it, and he has never missed. At this point, the only thing she can do is trust him. Trust is the benchmark law for robes!
Zuo Xiaoyou squinted his eyes and looked at the gluttonous beast king from afar, at this time he was about one hundred and thirty meters away from the gluttonous beast king, the south wind was three to four levels, the height was 50 meters, and the probability of the arrow hitting obliquely was less than thirty percent, so Zuo Xiaoright chose to throw.
The longbow was opened, the arrow tied to the magnet was placed on the string, and the left and right calculated the direction, wind direction, and strength, and with a flash of light in his eyes, he shot the arrow. Then, in an instant, he grabbed another arrow bound with black powder and shot it out like lightning. The difference between the front and back is less than 0.5 seconds.
In fact, the gluttonous beast king had long noticed the hot air balloon in the sky, but unfortunately because there was no borrowed object, it could only watch, and it was being fed at this time, so it couldn't stop easily, so he asked the guards to watch himself more closely, and at the same time urged the beast soldiers to speed up the feeding speed, so that it could meet the needs of breeding early.
But at this moment, the arrow shot by Zuo Xiaoyou arrived. Although these gluttonous guards saw the arrows, because the arrows were too fast, they could only open the protective film as fast as possible to protect the beastmaster. But before the protective film was fully opened, the arrow tied to the magnet arrived.
Disturbed by the magnet, all the gluttonous guards stopped moving. Only the Beastmaster was able to move, and when he saw the arrows coming in, he was startled, but before he could react, a second arrow tied to black powder shot in through the protective film. The Beastmaster was terrified, and hurriedly stepped forward to bite the black powder fuse, trying to extinguish it before it exploded.
But Zuo Xiaoyou would not give it this chance, in order to make this operation foolproof, Zuo Xiaoyou and Wang Junshi took out only a very small number of indestructible lead black powder. This indestructible lead will not be extinguished unless it is cut halfway, even if the wind blows and pours water. The beastmaster did not know the reality of this bundle of black powder, so he paid the price.
Boom -
A huge roar sounded, and the strong air flow affected even the hot air balloon at a height of fifty meters, and it almost crashed. Fortunately, Zuo Xiaoyou and Lin Mei controlled the balance of the hot air balloon in time, and the other two female generals of the Crane Army who were responsible for the flight of the hot air balloon also added fire to let the hot air balloon rise smoothly.
The airflow shock wave ended, Zuo Xiaoyou and Lin Mei looked at the gluttonous army below, and found that all the gluttony had been stationary, and the wind blew, and it fell in pieces.
Lin Mei's eyes flashed with ecstasy: "Palace Marshal! It worked! You killed the Beastmaster! ”
Zuo Xiaoyou breathed a long sigh of relief, although he was full of confidence, but when the arrow was shot, he was still a little apprehensive, afraid that he would not be able to shoot the beastmaster, and lose the magnet, and he would never have such a good chance to destroy the gluttony again. Thankfully, he succeeded.
What makes Zuo Xiaoyou even more fortunate is that the Khitan people here have been eaten up by gluttony, and the next Khitan city is two hundred miles away from here, which gives him plenty of time to clean up the mess.
"Towards the direction of the Gluttonous Beastmaster, land!"
"Yes!"
The two female soldiers of the Crane Army were so excited that they couldn't help themselves, they were gluttonous! The catastrophe that has plagued mankind for two thousand years, gluttony was wiped out by their palace marshal, and at this time, their eyes were full of colors, which made Lin Mei a little jealous.
Fortunately, the hot air balloon quickly landed at the location of the explosion of the Gluttonous Beastmaster, and then left and right jumped down from the hot air balloon and walked quickly towards the center of the explosion.
At this time, a circle of gluttonous guards died in the center of the explosion, and the gluttonous beast king in the center was blurred by the explosion, and the flesh was scattered all over the ground. It seems that although the size of the gluttonous beast king is huge, its protective power is no different from that of an ordinary crocodile, and it can't stop the explosion of black powder at all, not to mention that this black powder still explodes in its mouth, which is even more death.
Ignoring these casual handfuls, he immediately began to use the dagger to look for a signal release device in the casual hand of the gluttonous beast king's head. Lin Mei was curious and asked, "Palace Shuai, what are you looking for?" ”
"The Beastmaster controls the beast soldiers' things." Zuo Xiaoyou remembered that the beastmaster controlled the beast soldiers through the 'meat pu' above the head, but at this time the meat pu was blown up to smithereens, and it was very difficult to find it, and it was almost dark at this time, and it was even more troublesome to find, but fortunately he brought a torch when he came out, and through the irradiation of the torch, Zuo Xiaoyou finally found a round chip slightly larger than the chip in the beast soldier's brain in the minced meat.
Is this the secret of the Beastmaster's control of the beastmen? Zuo Xiaoyou wiped the chip clean like a baby, picked it up with a piece of silk cloth, and put it in his arms.
"Are you alright?" Although he is a soldier on the battlefield and is used to seeing dead corpses, it is the first time to experience finding something in minced meat like Zuo Xiaoyou, and at this time Lin Mei has some range, and her face is not very good.
"Alright." Zuo Xiaoyou nodded, finally showed a smile, and said, "The beastmaster is dead, and in the future, human beings will finally not have to suffer from gluttony." ”
This sentence made Lin Mei and the other two female soldiers very excited. But at this time, there is still a big problem, that is, gluttonous corpses everywhere. These gluttonous corpses are not actually corpses, but they have fallen into a dormant state because they have lost the control of the Beastmaster, and once the Beastmaster's chip signals again, they will be resurrected. In order to prevent this phenomenon, these gluttons must not be left behind.
"You two." Zuo Xiaoyou said to the two female soldiers: "Immediately return to the Great Wall in a hot air balloon, inform the Shadowless Forbidden Army, and order them to send cavalry troops, bring enough fire-starting things, and rush here overnight to burn gluttony!" ”
"Yes, Lady Palace!" The two female soldiers knew that the stakes were very high, and they also knew that Zuo Xiaoyou and Lin Mei did not leave, because they wanted to reduce the burden of the hot air balloon and allow them to rush back to the Great Wall faster, so that the cavalry could rush here overnight and burn the gluttony before the Khitans found out.
These gluttony is too terrible, although the Khitan people have no brains for scientific research, but there are not only Khitans in the territory of Liao, a large number of Han people live in the territory of Liao, once there are Han people in Liao to study these gluttonous corpses, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not develop biochemical weapons that threaten the Great Song Dynasty in the future. To prevent this, they need to race against time.
Looking at the hot air balloon that took off overnight and disappeared into the distance, Zuo Xiaoyou turned his head to look at Lin Mei and smiled slightly: "We all survived." ”
"yes!" Under the illumination of the torches, Lin Mei's face was very red. She knew that when this battle was over, she and him would be married.
