19 Encirclement and suppression
At the behest of the village's Mogu administrator, his servants drove all the slave races living in the village to the wide official road outside the village, as well as other nearby villages. From a distance, I don't know how many slaves were kneeling along the way, almost stretching for more than a hundred miles. And there were huge plain eagles with a wingspan of two zhang wide gliding in the sky, and there were more than a hundred of them in the part of the sky that Li Pu looked up at alone. These are war birds of prey carefully domesticated by the Mogu falconers, and any reckless movers under martial law will be locked up, hovering over the top and screaming to call out to the Mogu master.
This humble and subservient posture of all things in the world shows the extremely cold arrogance and majesty of the Mogu Empire.
The Mogu administrator arranged for several slave races in neighboring villages under his responsibility, and walked back and forth like ants on a hot pot while tidying up their clothes, trying to find out if there was the slightest mistake in their handling. When Li Pu occasionally walked by the manager, he and his entourage analyzed what was going on.
It turned out that the Mogu Shuanghou was scheduled to inspect the important territories of the empire separately, and finally went to the hub of Panlong's Spine, the Remnant Yang Pass, to strengthen the morale of the front-line soldiers and boost the morale of the army. The Valley of the Four Winds is a place of grain production, which can be called an important lifeblood of the empire, and it is in charge of the "Lonely Concubine" Lu Lin. Although she is a woman and the emperor's favorite concubine, the Mogu clan is a naturally warlike race, and Concubine Lin is a high priest who is proficient in secret arts.
If he made any reckless moves under martial law, Li Pu estimated that he would definitely be targeted by the Plains Eagle, and then be hunted down and encircled. He thought about it for a moment and knelt on the side of the road with Lingling, huddled in a row with the other low-brow panda slaves. Panda people have one advantage – they look very similar. Most of the Moorkoku can't tell what the panda people look like. But as slave owners, they don't need to distinguish clearly.
"Kneel down for me one by one! Wait until the lonely concubine Niangniang arrives here, if any of you dare to make a mistake, I will definitely peel the fur of your whole family as a boot mat! "The Mogu administrator viciously warned the serfs who were kneeling in rows. Suddenly, the ground shook, and everyone, including him, couldn't help but look at the vast plain outside the village.
"Look! That's the gunboat of the Patrol War Beast Regiment! Some of the kneeling slave races looked into the distance with horrified expressions. In the distance, two armored superbeasts could be seen, with muscles so thick that they looked like bundles of giant trees pressed together, and they were gradually approaching along the official road with heavy steps that made the ground shake.
Li Pu has seen the Mushan beast of this world in these days, this is a strong animal similar to the shovel-toothed beast, but the body is much larger, each one is comparable to a small tank, the back is more than a zhang high, the body length is three and a half zhang, and it weighs more than several tons, but it has a gentle temperament, and most of them are domesticated as camel beasts, or meat sources.
In the distance, the two super-monsters that caused the earth's crust to shake even more exaggerated than the Tyrannosaurus rex in Jurassic Park just by footwork were very similar in appearance, but the difference in size was so large that they looked like tanks and warships. The highest part of the back ridge is nearly ten meters, the body length from the head to the tail is about forty meters, the muscular body is equipped with the armor of the war horse, and on both sides of the back is also carried two giant cannons with a caliber of at least half a zhang wide, and dozens of Mogu elites hold heavy ballistas on its loading platform.
"That's the gunboat, the main force of the Mogu Empire's patrol war beast group." Lingling lowered her head and whispered, "It is said that there are hundreds of such land gunboats in the Mogu Empire......"
"It's a giant monster that's supposed to destroy the city in a special film." Li Pu secretly complained, estimating that these two gunboats should be the escort of Concubine Lulin. As the convoy approached, he found that between the two gunboats, there was a cavalry of about 500 men, guarding a lavish convoy.
Li Pu knew very well that the people in the closely guarded convoy should be the royal family leaders of the Mogu Empire. I remember that the terminal body mentioned the apprentice named "Sola" who participated in the assessment this time, and the mission target seemed to be those high-flying guys in the car. It's a pity that I don't know where she is, if I have the opportunity to communicate with her, it is best to avoid meaningless conflicts. After all, everyone is destined to take the exam together.
As the Mogu convoy under the arch of the two gunboats gradually approached, Li Pu always felt that something was not right. His identity in this world is just a small fugitive slave who is not worth mentioning, and there is no reason for the Mogu people to make such an exaggerated scene of cannons hitting mosquitoes to calculate. But......
He secretly paid attention to the surroundings, whether there was a suitable retreat route, the war birds of prey patrolling in the air could only avoid their keen eyes if they blended into the merchant ranks, outside the village was a fertile plain suitable for farming, and ten miles to the west was the dragon's spine that defended against the mantis demon clan outside the pass.
There is nowhere to hide, and if he moves, he will inevitably be discovered, and those Mogu soldiers who have Quirin's mount and are familiar with the terrain will definitely be able to catch up with him.
Maybe he should have hid in the fist forest and didn't come out, but if he couldn't hide and become a wild man, he wouldn't have gotten information about the war. After all, his first goal is to wait for the mantis demon to officially start an all-out war. Li Pu, who was mixed with the slaves, temporarily suppressed the uneasy premonition in his heart, and like other slaves, he tried his best to put on an ignorant and timid look, peeking at the luxurious convoy and the royal guards on the wide official road from time to time.
"Factory father, how are you looking at my Four Winds Valley?" Xungong Hou Subutai controls a huge jet-black kuilin, which is a ferocious species that is a specialty of the territory of the Demon Ancient Empire, similar to an adult male lion, but the physique is several times thicker and stronger, each head weighs nearly two tons, and the shoulder height is nearly two meters, majestic, and the wide blood basin mouth is full of dense knife teeth sharper than sharks. It is the favorite domesticated war horse beast of the Mogu people. In addition to being a mount, it is also a top-level war beast, and any claw can split a solid rock wall like a broken tofu.
"Xungong Hou is young and promising, and he has always admired the mountain horror very much." The one who is qualified to ride side by side with the Marquis of Xungong is the mountain terror. Born in the Yamazawa clan, he is a famous nobleman himself, and he has worked tirelessly to become the master of the East Factory in charge of the secret agent department of the Mogu Empire, and he is in a high position. However, in front of the Marquis of Xungong, he has always put on a humble posture.
"It's a pity that my military exploits have not been as good as my eldest brother's ruthlessness." Subutai sighed, "Although the Eternal Shadow Hou Ti'an is recognized as the strongest of the four of us, he is bent on seeking the Tao and only cares about studying the secret art of shadows. The tyrannical Hou Meng'en...... That guy is crazy, it's good not to play himself to death. Only ruthlessly waiting for Qi Ang, he has made a lot of military achievements in the past few years, but I am afraid that in addition to his father and the marshal of Zhenguo, he has surpassed the two generals Jian Xi and Taixi. ”
Shan Wei smiled slightly, naturally understanding the mind of the Marquis of Xungong, since the Supreme Emperor died on another continent. Among the four princes, the one with the best chance to inherit the throne is the first to recommend the "Ruthless War King" Qi Ang, and then it is the turn of the "Swift Bow Thief King" Su Butai. As for the "Eternal Shadow Witch King" Tian, he is recognized as the top shadow mystic master in the Mogu Empire, and if he wants to fight, the power will not lose to the two princes, but he has no intention of politics, so he faded out of the battle for succession. As for the tyrannical Hou Meng'en, he was so brutal and perverted by nature that even the Mogu clan couldn't look at it, and could only be ranked last.
In the Demon Ancient Queen, the "Revenge Concubine" Shu'e treats the four princes equally, and the "Silent Concubine" Lu Lin herself is the High Priest of Shadow, and if she can, she will naturally favor the "Eternal Shadow Marquis" Ti'an. However, Yongying Hou did not fight, and Xungong Hou saw the opportunity, and tried hard to please Concubine Lonely and increase his bargaining chips. As for Marshal of the Iron Dome, he was loyal only to the emperor. The character is extremely cold and arrogant and stubborn, and the four princes can't move at all.
Shan Wei knew that Subutai had always wanted to win over him, after all, the Yamazawa clan behind him was one of the Demon Gu clans, and he was not only a master of the court, but also a powerful minister who controlled countless secret agents. Before, he had never expressed his sincerity in wooing Xungong Hou, but today, he casually glanced at Xungong Hou lamenting his lack of military achievements, but he twisted his beard and said: "The ruthless war king's military achievements are impressive, and I admire him." But why are you sighing to yourself? You are in charge of the Valley of the Four Winds, the granary of the empire, and you have a good management, more than every year, and I think you have still surpassed the way of national politics. ”
"Thanks to the mountain horror brother." Subutai arched his hand in a good mood, "It's a pity! Our clan is the most important military merit, and this logistics is crucial, except for you, brother, no one has seen it! Alas, there are more than a million soldiers and horses under the ruthless waiting, and the staff is as strong as a cloud, guarding the northern section of Panlong's spine and Longxing Ancestral Garden. Although I have a bit of a person in my hands, how can I go out on an expedition like him! Accumulate military merits! ”
Hearing the meaning of the fist recruitment in his words, he smiled slightly, stroked his beard and said, "Not really, I see, you may be about to run into a ruthless military feat." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Su Butai's big eyes lit up like a copper bell, and he knew that with the terrifying character of the mountain, he would never be untargeted.
"You've heard the name "Fist of Dawn". Mountain Horror asked.
"Of course, I know that there is a lot of transmission in the private of those minions, and he has become a hero of those minions' beliefs. I remember that some time ago, they also made a lot of trouble for the ruthless Hou and the tyrannical Hou, they were busy for a long time, but they didn't catch it, and they lost their face. Subutai said with a smile: "It's just that no one knows what this "Fist of Dawn" looks like or where he is hiding. It is said that the strength is not bad, and he has obtained the true inheritance of the four prisoner beasts, and he can use the power of the four spirits. ”
His eyes moved slightly, "Do you have any definite information about this Fist of Dawn?" If there really is, tell me quickly, I will accept your affection! Hey, if I catch him, the faces of Zion and Mun who have been played by him will be very exciting! It's really a good military feat! ”
"If I harness the 'Black Wind' and fly in the sky without being mistaken, the person who can use the power of Jade Long that day must be the Fist of Dawn. Shan Wei arched his hand and smiled: "Congratulations to the Marquis of Xungong, congratulations to the Marquis of Xungong, this Fist of Dawn and his comrades are among the kneeling slaves!"
