Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Night Bug Strikes
In the area of Oster's temporary station, there are patches of single frames, and the wounded of the vanguard army are almost squeezed out, and now the reinforcements have brought hundreds of wounded, which is good enough to completely fill the entire garrison area, due to the large number of wounded, under the coordination of Feng, all the uninjured or lightly injured have given up their bunks to those seriously wounded, and even Feng's own bunks have been given up.
"Sister, what the hell is going on?"
"Our troops were attacked in the dense forest on the shores of Lake Lorton. ”
It's really shocking, Feng didn't expect that in the current Valrea Alliance, there are still people who dare to attack Harris's army, and as soon as the gold-painted battle flag comes out, basically the entire alliance army will surrender.
"Has my sister figured out who it is?"
"I was about to ask, what is your situation?"
Feng told the story of the attack on the post station area that night, especially the section of the red line demon worm that gave Yue a heavy description.
"Third sister, you were attacked on the first night you came to Oster, and I was also attacked when I was about to arrive in Oster, maybe there is some connection between the two. ”
"And in the past half a month, there have been more than a dozen explosions against the aristocratic class in the city, which has paralyzed the operation of the entire Oster. ”
"That's why the city is so depressed. ”
"And what about Andal?"
"He's a man who is scared, he hasn't been out of the city lord's mansion since the bombing, and he left everything to a man named Sanez. ”
"Sanes?" Moon thought about it for a while, and there didn't seem to be such a person on the list of high-ranking people in the capital of Oster.
"He guesses it's someone from the Capua Chamber of Commerce!" Yi Tian, who had been silent for a long time, spoke at this time.
Yue Meng raised her head, and she hadn't noticed how there was an extra man next to her third sister just now.
"You are?"
"He's a friend I met in Neil Village, and I thought I'd be back to Lil along the way, but I didn't expect to run into such a mess now. Feng replied in front of Yi Tian.
"Oh!" Yue knew very well what kind of person her sister was, she was by no means the kind of person who would take strangers on the road casually, not to mention that she was still on the march, it seemed that the relationship between the two of them was extraordinary.
"How do you know?" Yue didn't click on Pofeng's words, she continued to ask Yi Tian.
"On that day in the city-states of the Green Forest, I found out that their city lord was colluding with the Capua Chamber of Commerce, and then I heard Feng mention that the city-states of Scarles were fighting for gold mines, and then I knew that there must be something wrong with this. Then we came to Oster, where all the infirmaries and pharmacies were closed on the same day, apparently for the vanguard, and we were attacked at the inn at night, and the combined result of these two events was that we were targeted by the people of Capua. Yi Tian looked at Feng's stunned appearance and continued, "And I have also secretly inquired in the past few days, not only the rich areas have been frequently targeted, but even the aliens who live a low-key life on weekdays have also been isolated, I think this is definitely not the true idea of the city lord, after all, if he wants to do this, there will be clues long ago, not such a means of sudden isolation." Feng also said
The city lord Andal is a timid and fearful person, and it is impossible for him to forcibly isolate them at the risk of a foreign rebellion, so the trouble of all this comes from the sudden appearance of the staff member ---- Sanes, combined with the fact that the green forest city-state and Capua colluded before, it is conceivable that the current ambition of the Capua Chamber of Commerce should not only be a small gold mine, but the entire western region of Valea. ”
Feng looked at Yi Tian at this time as if she was looking at a stranger, she didn't expect that the usually unruly young man in front of her would have such a meticulous mind, and the conclusion he deduced completely shocked Feng.
Of course, Feng was far more than the only one who was shocked, as the chief of staff of the entire Harris Army, Yue has been a smart woman since she was a child, coupled with the influence of her father at home every day, she soon showed extraordinary talent in military strategy, so it is not nepotism that she can become the chief of staff of this army. She thought that the kid in front of her was a flamboyant rogue, but Yi Tian's words just now shocked her, because his inference was not much different from the secret report that his father got before leaving, who is this Yi Tian?
"You've guessed all this?"
"General Staff, don't take it too seriously, that's what I said, most of this is my guess. Yi Tian regretted it a little, why did he just tell it all and say that he was going to act in a low-key manner.
This is the Yi Tian I know, stupid is cute, Feng on the side thought to himself.
After the convergence of the two Harris troops, the number of Harris troops currently stationed in the city of Oster has reached more than 2,000 people, but excluding those who are seriously injured and unable to move, the living combat power is only about 1,000 people, although the number is not much, but the Harris troops of more than 1,000 people still have a strong deterrent power, at least in the hearts of some people is a big stone.
When night fell on the city of Oster, another round of attacks was about to begin, and the darkness of the night covered the entire capital, and everyone except the soldiers of Harris fell asleep at the moment. The camp on the eastern side of the capital was brightly lit at this time, and several groups of Harris female soldiers patrolled back and forth in the camp.
"You said they'd come and attack tonight?"
"That's right, since they didn't finish you off on the way, then they will definitely not let go of this great opportunity tonight, you will be difficult to come to Oster after a long journey, and you will definitely rest tonight, as long as they have the heart, they will definitely take this opportunity to kill you in one fell swoop. Yi Tian analyzed.
"Second sister, I think what Xiaotian said is very reasonable. Feng echoed.
Yue Si repeatedly decided to adopt Yi Tian's suggestion, and assigned several groups of soldiers to patrol the night, and not only that, Yue, Feng and Yi Tian also entered these patrol teams in batches, one person was responsible for several hours, and each other worked in shifts until dawn.
Thick lead clouds gathered in the air, and soon the entire night sky was obscured by thick black clouds, and only the camp of the entire city of Oster was now shining with a faint light. In the darkness of the night, something was constantly wriggling in the grass around the camp, between the cracks in the walls, and in the canals, and the sound of the ropes indicated that there were no small number of them, and the shape and appearance of these insects were completely integrated with the night, and they crawled forward on the ground, and ordinary people would have noticed it
Not with them.
The time has come to the second half of the night, at this moment is the time of the month's shift, after several rounds of inspections, the moon is also a little tired, after all, she has been running around day and night, she herself has not closed her eyes for several days, she leaned against the gate of the camp, her eyes were slightly closed, and she rested briefly.
These insects are approaching the camp from all sides, and if you can look down from the air at this time, you can clearly see that the entire camp has been surrounded by tens of thousands of worms, and the scene of tens of thousands of insects wriggling together is definitely a spectacular scene.
The sound of the surging rope is getting closer and closer, the swarm is still less than ten meters away from the camp, the moon suddenly woke up from sleep, this strange sound may not be noticed by others, but for the potion master, any hidden danger can not escape her keen perception, the moon beat woke up the napping soldiers around her, and made a scattered gesture.
Through the flames of the camp gate, Yue vaguely saw that something seemed to be squirming on the ground in the distance, she was not sure if it was her own eyes to see the flowers, Yue took a small silver ball from the wide potion belt around her waist, only to see her gently roll the silver ball off the ground, a few seconds later the silver ball flashed, flashing a dazzling silver light at the moment of explosion.
Glitter beads, this is a small thing made by the moon herself, its surface is smeared with an extremely sensitive layer of mucus, as long as it touches any living thing, it will instantly burst out of dazzling silver light, so as to make the other party lose sight for a short time.
In a silver light, all the Harris soldiers present gasped, and under the silver light was a group of densely wriggling insect eggs, the pale and transparent body made these insect eggs completely able to sneak into the camp silently, if it weren't for this wave of silver light, it is estimated that the entire camp would fall in a few minutes.
"Quick, sound the alarm!!light all the fires!!" Moon ordered.
After a long command, the originally silent camp suddenly boiled, and the soldiers who were still asleep were woken up by their teammates, and they ran out one by one without even having time to put on their armor, of course, Yi Tian and Feng were also among them, Yi Tian hadn't slept much in the past few days, and he had been worried about whether things like that night would happen again, but he didn't expect that only a few days later, what he was worried about would come true.
The raging flames formed a natural defensive wall around the camp, making it impossible for these eggs to get close to the camp, but this is not a long-term solution, after all, the red line demon insects are not afraid of the flames, and their retreat at this time is not because they are afraid, but to let those larvae who are still in the growth stage grow up, only at that time, hundreds of thousands of red line demon insects can have an overwhelming advantage to devour the stupid humans in front of them.
"Second sister, what's the situation?" Feng asked anxiously, she had seen the power of the Red Line Demon Worm, and she knew that once these worms got into the camp, at least hundreds of casualties would occur.
"It shouldn't be a problem to have a wall of fire to block it. ”
"No! this is a red line worm's trap, how long have they stayed there!" Yi Tian on the side saw the clue, he knew that these insects were never afraid of flames, the only thing that could make them stop was time, it would take more than ten minutes for the red line larvae to grow into demon worms, so maybe in the next second, tens of thousands of red line demon insects would break through the wall of fire and kill in.
