Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Unavoidable Forest

"Your Majesty, a forest has grown in the enemy's camp and is blocking the advance of our army."

"What?"

Li Chao grabbed the binoculars and looked through the small lens to see the verdant forest opposite, he remembered that there was no forest there before.

"It seems to be a fairy's trick...... Only fairies can conjure up a large forest. ”

"I didn't expect the fairy to intervene so quickly."

He had long expected that the fairies would intervene, as he had said to the peasants and nobles, that the enemy would inevitably fail, because the enemies were all paper tigers that could be broken at the slightest poke.

But he thought that the fairies would have to wait until after the defeat of the Combine to intervene, but he didn't expect them to intervene so quickly.

"So what should we do?" The noble officer was a little anxious, "We finally gained a slight advantage, and the enemy was defeated, and seeing that we were about to pursue and completely destroy the enemy, the sudden growth of the forest blocked our way, so that we could not pursue the enemy. ”

"Bombardment with cannons." Li Chao said without hesitation: "Let the artillery blow up the forest...... Don't be afraid to waste ammunition, what we have is ammunition. ”

"Yes."

As soon as the noble officers went down, they summoned artillerymen, lined them up in a row, and aimed them at the forest.

"Ready...... Ignition...... Put. ”

Boom Boom Boom ......

The barrels of the guns roared, and the shells that shot out like meteors and landed in the forest, causing a series of explosions.

In this explosion, even the trees that make up the forest are very thick, they also collapsed, but the wonderful thing is that when a tree falls, another tree grows immediately, and it grows and grows, and it grows and falls, and the cycle repeats, so the noble officer finds that the cannon has been bombarding the forest for ten minutes, and thousands of shells have fallen, but the forest has never been destroyed.

"These trees ...... Stop first. ”

The noble officer waved his hand to stop the artillery, while he turned around and went back to Li Chao to pray, "Your Majesty, artillery is useless against the forest, and the trees in the forest will grow again as soon as they are destroyed by ......artillery." ”

In the end, he was embarrassed and simply kept his mouth shut.

So many artillery, so many artillery, rumbling out, and not even a corner of the forest was destroyed, it was a shame, and it was a shame in front of the king.

"That forest was conjured up by a fairy, and it's normal that artillery can't help it."

Li Chao's hands tapped on the table, he was not too disappointed in the failure of the artillery, he did not forget that this is a fairy tale world, and fairies cannot be measured by common sense.

Ordinary forests, of course, can be leveled with artillery. As long as he was willing to accept the cannonballs, but the fairy was different, and the cannon could not cause damage, he was not surprised at allβ€”even Princess Tanasha would not lose her face and die of old age after sleeping for a hundred years, and he would not be surprised that the fairy would do something more amazing.

"Try burning it with fire!"

"Yes."

As soon as the noble officer went down, he summoned the soldiers and asked them to bring barrels of oil, which he poured on the trees and set them on fire.

Multiply.......

As soon as the flame and the oil came into contact, they immediately burned violently, and the flames began to spread continuously, but before the noble officers could be happy, the spreading flames were immediately extinguished, along with the flames that had been originally lit.

"Damn, this is another fairy trick?" The aristocratic officer asked the soldier to light the fire again, but this time the flame was the same as before, burning for a while before inexplicably extinguishing.

"Isn't there a way to ignite this forest?"

The aristocratic officer was furious, and he ordered the soldiers to bring more oil, and then poured the flames on the trees and lit the flames, but this time, as on the previous two occasions, the flames burned for a while and then inexplicably went out, and the trees that had been burned by the fire sprouted new shoots and regained their verdant appearance in the blink of an eye.

"Damn fairies."

The aristocratic officer stared at the forest and gritted his teeth and cursed, but he was helpless in his heart, and he had no choice but to reply to Li Chao's failure again, "Your Majesty, the fire we put in the forest is always inexplicably extinguished, and there is no way to ignite it at all. ”

"Inexplicably extinguished?" Li Chao narrowed his eyes, "Take me to see." ”

Ten minutes later, Li Chao appeared in front of the forest, he looked at the lush forest, reached out and touched the trees, and was bounced back in the blink of an eye, as if he had touched an invisible barrier.

"None of us has a way to get in?" Li Chao accentuated syllables on the word 'everyone'.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Can a cannonball be fired into it?"

"Yes."

"Shoot one."

The aristocratic officer soon called in the artillerymen and set up the cannon, aiming at the forest as a cannonball, which hit a towering tree in the outer layer of the forest.

Rumble......

The tree exploded, snapped, and collapsed, as if the cannonball had done its job, but immediately, the illusion disappeared, and on the broken trunk of the tree, new branches grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye, it grew back into a towering tree, as if the growth process that took hundreds of years and thousands of years to grow was compressed into just a few minutes.

"Die and live...... If you want to destroy the forest, you can only cover the entire forest with a lot of firepower...... No, even covering an entire forest doesn't guarantee that the forest won't regrow on the ruins, and it's ....... Li Chao looked at the forest, although he couldn't see the edge, but it was precisely because of this that he could prove the vastness of this forest, "Such a vast forest, it is almost impossible to cover it now." ”

"As for waiting for the factories to make enough artillery...... By that time, the daylilies were all cold. ”

The purpose of destroying the forest is to pursue the defeated enemy army, and if the forest cannot be destroyed as soon as possible to allow the enemy to recover, the point of destroying the forest will be gone.

"How long is this forest? Is there a way to get around this forest and pursue the enemy? ”

"I ......."

"You can't help it." In the forest, the evil fairy appeared out of thin air, and as soon as she turned around, she faced Li Chao, "Because wherever you go, this forest will grow, and you will never be able to bypass this forest!" ”
