Chapter 826: Rainy Night Terror
"Your Majesty?" Concubine Jing couldn't help but be a little panicked when she saw the Spirit Emperor's cheetah-like eyes that radiated a faint light, she knew that this man was moody, as unpredictable as fate, but after all, he was a person, a person with a flesh and blood body, and every time he turned his face, there were some omens before he turned his face, and this leopard-like eyes that emitted a faint green light were one of the more obvious signs.
She felt that the Spirit Emperor was moving away from her, from a panting, sweaty old man to a god sitting on a dragon chair.
"Come!" he yelled outside the curtain, and then heard a dull thunderclap in response.
The curtain was lightly touched, and the shadow of the Grand Eunuch Modal, the Supreme Associate of Internal Affairs, was reflected on the golden curtain. "Your Majesty, to go or to stay?" he asked respectfully, not daring to have the slightest stiffness.
"Someone, go and call Dai Quan. The Spirit Emperor did not answer his question, but gave a verbal commandment, and Modal nodded and retreated, and after a while, Dai Quan, the eunuch in charge of internal affairs, gently pushed open the door of the conservatory, and walked silently.
"Knock on the emperor. He knelt beside the Linghuang's bed, waiting for the will, in the Southern Empire, only the eunuchs needed to kneel to receive the will, and the ministers generally stood at a certain distance and waited for the emperor to leave.
"Prepare the horses and drive the palace. The Spirit Emperor sat up and said in a cold voice, "Also, tell the forbidden army to speed up......" He said as another huge thunder sounded overhead.
"Yes!" Dai Quan knocked on the leader's order, during which there was no word of questioning, he would not ask the emperor why he wanted to drive the palace in the middle of the night, as one of the only three people who knew the whole plan, he deeply understood the emperor's intentions. For the Southern Empire, a torrential rain could at any time turn into a disaster that blocked the roads and delayed the march.
What's more, this rain is very strange, it is reasonable to say that this year is relatively dry, and there should be no rain at the end of July.
Modal entered the curtain and commanded several palace maids to change the emperor's clothes, and at the same time personally untied the rope on Concubine Jing's body, Concubine Jing moved her somewhat swollen wrists while putting them on as quickly as possible, there was no time to put on makeup, and she would talk about it when it was dawn tomorrow.
The news of the Emperor's departure soon spread throughout the camp. Queen Linghua was the first to walk out of the conservatory with an umbrella, and she didn't sleep at all. She stood in the middle of the rainstorm with a big red umbrella, her delicate eyebrows tightly constricted.
"How can this rain be so coincidental?" she asked Juan'er, asked other palace maids, asked Cangtian, asked herself, but there was no answer.
【Fengdu Soul Refining Mountain Mountain Road】
The golden-colored Luan Yu slowly moved forward in the torrential rain, and the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair showed up the wind and strength of their bodies to keep it stable, but Luan Yu was still slowly swaying, and even the mood of the Spirit Emperor was also swaying. The person sitting next to him was no one else, it was Concubine Jing, who rarely rode in a sedan chair with her.
Concubine Jing was flattered at this time, and tried her best to please the Spirit Emperor, but she didn't know that this man who could already let her lean on his shoulders had already made up his mind to treat her as a human flesh bait that she would throw away after use, and feed it to Uncle Zhao Guang, so as to wipe out his Chongwang. At this time, Concubine Jing Niangniang could not feel the indifferent and vicious gaze cast by Queen Linghua in the behind.
【Fengdu Soul Refining Mountain Ghost Road Pass】
Ordinary forbidden army cavalry can only arrive at the ghost road crossing, and it only took 17 minutes for Yinchen to lead the team.
In 17 minutes, the forbidden army of the Southern Empire may only be able to complete the work of the whole team, the iron cavalry battalion of the Northern Emperor can only run three-quarters of the distance, and the Jianzhou Iron Cavalry is about the same, and the most elite Black Feather Army has also completed eighty percent of the road at most. And the small, inconspicuous-looking Forbidden Army Eighty-Four Bid led by Silver Dust took such a little time to rush directly to the target location with the charging force he had invented.
That's the speed of the Otherworldly Delta Force.
Soldiers are fast, when Yinchen made up his mind to customize the global positioning system for the forces that are slowly growing up behind him, the value of these four words is more and more reflected, now, even if Yinchen has no satellites and no early warning aircraft, relying on the detection of small UAVs, it can also achieve real-time grasp of battlefield information, and echoing this information advantage, is the increasingly demanding marching speed.
He didn't know at this time that he was the man who really pulled his teeth on the battlefield, and all the timing was in his hands because of the extremely high-speed charge and fight of his team.
Uncle Zhao Guang is very strategic, Queen Linghua is well prepared, what can she do? If her hand speed is not fast enough, she will never be able to grab five kills.
"My lord, we have arrived. When Yinchen's jujube red horse stopped, Wu Chang hurriedly stepped forward to brush up on his sense of existence: "This track crossing is really dangerous, I am only afraid that we will not be allowed to lose ...... when we are stationed here."
"We're late. Silver Dust's tone suddenly became extremely solemn, in fact, he felt a solemn cloud of conspiracy swirling in his heart halfway through, because at that time he had already seen the scene of the ghost road entrance through the small drone flying high in the sky.
It wasn't the ghost he imagined.
"My lord?" Wu Chang was a little blindsided, although Lord Biaotong has always been a maverick, but he was really kind to Qiu Ba, who was a soldier, and fought for them a lot of tangible benefits, and it was a great thing to always pay the salary in full and on time, and he was also very kind on weekdays, when did he have such a cold-faced and cold-hearted attitude for no reason?
"You are here as a team, wait for me for a minute, and you will be killed if you encounter any wrongdoers, and you don't have to report it afterwards. Yinchen coldly threw down these words, dismounted himself, and walked towards the earthwork pass built at the mouth of the track, and his figure disappeared at the end of the firelight.
Wu Chang opened his mouth, but didn't ask a word in the end, just waved his hand silently, and let the other Wu Commanders transform the military into a defensive circle formation. After a while, a faint golden light lit up on the pass, and in the light, a silver-white figure could be seen squatting there, stretching out his silver-white right hand and caressing something.
The figure withdrew its hand, and the silver palm had turned into a dirty dark mass under the golden light.
After a short while, Silver Dust returned, his face as cold and hard as an iron plate, and there was not much anger or sorrow in his silver pupils, only a calm of watching everything. He rolled over his horse and handed his hand to the captain.
Wu Chang only glanced down at the slimy thing on his hands, and his face changed.
That's what the military men are most familiar with.
Blood.
"Your Excellency... There should be people from the Imperial Forest Army here........." Captain Wu said with a stumbling voice, at this point he had already thought of some of the most terrible and worst scenarios.
"The flag of the Imperial Guards is still on it, but there is no one underneath, not even a single corpse, all I have found. A trace of red light flashed on Yinchen's hand, and the power of the flame evaporated the filth in his palm: "Those people, that is, our enemies, are very smart, they know that it is impossible to hold this pass, after all, there are bed crossbows, ballista carts, and even red-clothed cannons among the forbidden army, and there are more than 10,000 people, far more than the number of people they may exist, they are few, there is no point in staying here, they can only increase casualties, so they retreated, and they didn't even want to disguise." ”
"That's true. Wu Chang nodded and said, "I'm afraid the enemy is some mountain bandits or Jianghu sects......"
"The mountain bandits dare to attack the Imperial Forest Army, can they still fight?" Yinchen stared at Wu Chang, his gaze suddenly sharpened, he felt that Wu Chang seemed to be deliberately concealing the identity or size of the enemy. "Will this Captain collaborate with the enemy?" Silver Dust had a thought in his mind, but he quickly rejected it, he felt that it was impossible for this Captain to dare to challenge the majesty of the demonic contract.
"If it is a mountain bandit who was bought by the north, it is really possible, a few years ago, we in the south spent money to buy a mountain bandit, dared to attack the frame of the puppet in the north, and even dared to poison the slaves in Jianzhou...... Adults may not know, the rivers and lakes and the imperial court are two completely different worlds, there are many wild maniacs on the rivers and lakes like carp crossing the river, and there is indeed no one who dares to squeak in the court, if it were not for the imperial court holding a few sacred weapons of the town and country, and the master of Rulin, an army of millions, I am afraid of ...... The emperor's previous southern tours were actually not peaceful, but in order to show the prestige of the empire, he had to hunt once a year...... It costs a huge amount of money, and the soldiers and horses are tired, and the entire Imperial Forest Army is actually the defense army when it suffers from the southern tour, and it has always been dispatched in three or five thousand whole formations, and when it encounters any mountain bandits, the whole army often has to charge desperately to destroy the enemy, so the whole empire, the people who serve in the army, all take entering the Royal Forest Army as the first glory, because that is the only army in the empire that still has glory, and the combat power is not strong, but the tactics are relatively stiff...... This time, I'm afraid it's another vicious battle. ”
"You mean, these Guards are with us at this time, and we don't have to worry about it?"
"My lord, we are not here to escort this time! besiege the Soul Refining Mountain, I'm afraid that there will be a big battle to fight in the near future......"
'No, there won't be any big fights. Silver Dust looked at the increasingly dense rain lines in the firelight, and slowly spat out a word. The soldiers of the forbidden army behind him used the gang wind to form a shield on the flames to resist the rain, and the military level gang wind blew away the water vapor that fell on the copper-clad chain mail, keeping it at a minimum, and in the entire team, only silver dust was soaked.
He looked at the rain, and the silver pupils reflected the runes of light and fire, the two merged into order, and then turned into a silent and lightless legendary magic "Great Prophecy", quickly deducing all the situations he was about to face, and finally merging into a whole situation, and in that short time of three breaths, he already knew what he had to do.
"Such a heavy rain, continue for the next quarter of an hour, the entire path of the Soul Refining Mountain will be completely finished, it is impossible to encircle the Soul Refining Mountain, the enemy we have to deal with, no matter who it is, it is possible to rely on the rich Soul Refining Mountain, hold on until the autumn comes, and then escape, become a new Tartary Buckwheat Sect uprising, or some other guerrilla war, in short, if we can't brave the rain to attack the enemy, then we can only wait here for the defeat of the battle, or even the defeat of the war. ”
He looked at Commander Wu with a brick, and looked at the neat, silent, and murderous two hundred people behind Commander Wu, and raised his voice slightly: "Everyone, the military order is like a mountain, but the military situation is like fire, do we stay here and be an obedient army that is forbidden by orders, or follow me, be greedy for merit, and attack the enemy's dead hole......?"
He paused and looked into everyone's eyes, which were either red, blue, or green, and there was hesitation, ambition, absolute obedience to all thought, and a simple desire to kill. Silver Dust knew that at this time, the thinking of this army was not unified - before he gave a clear order.
"Your Excellency. At this time, another military commander spoke: "The order we have received is to control the Ghost Daokou, a place where soldiers must fight, once we fail, we will not be trusted at most, but your lordship...... That's a punishable offense!"
"I will bear the consequences. Silverdust didn't have time to explain Napoleon's Waterloo to them, so he could only turn around and look at the infinite darkness in the rain. The white pupils were filled with snow.
"My lord, can we send scouts to listen to the situation first, or send someone to deliver a letter to the above?"
"In a quarter of an hour, which of us can go back and forth?" Yinchen asked, no one answered, in fact, except for Yinchen's drone, no one could do it, and Yinchen's drone couldn't even let these subordinates know, let alone see the Spirit Emperor.
"If we can't move for a quarter of an hour, then we can't do anything but stay here, because after a quarter of an hour, heavy rain is likely to cause a small flash flood to wash away the mountain road. ”
Silver Dust finally turned around and looked at those soldiers, they were once so humble that even they felt inferior, and now, they are definitely the most elite primitive army in the world, their military strength can shake the heavens, their charges can cause storms, their combat techniques have surpassed the times, their marching speed has basically reached the standard of industrial civilization, they are the delta living in the age of knights, the SS of the Middle Ages, and the extremist organization "Xiao" who has taken off its dark robes.
"Ahead, there is the glory of the soldiers, and the risk of not obeying orders, and the place where the orders are forbidden, the comfort without any fault, and the glory of the soldiers who are gradually fading away. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first time I have let you choose for yourself, and it will be the last, this is not a threat, this is the ultimate that I can do with Yinchen, I am not a god, it is impossible to give a dream to the emperor to ask him to give me an order to wait for me to advance, not to mention that his heralds will not be able to come in the rain within a quarter of an hour. With that, he turned away, waiting for the double verdict of his subordinates and fate.
