Chapter 140: Temptation

Lost City.

At the observation place at the head of the city, Yan Zhengtian led a group of generals who were carefully observing the movements of the beast clan, but after watching for a long time, they didn't see any reason, so they had to withdraw from the observation place.

"Legion Commander, according to his subordinates, the Orcs plan to use trebuchets to attack the city, so they will drive those innocent civilians to dig stones everywhere. One of the captains spoke his mind.

Before Yan Zhengtian could speak, the captain surnamed Zhang retorted: "Are you a fool? Don't forget that the place where we are located is the Yanhuo Hill, and the stones here are nothing but the sulfur yellow stone that crushes when you pinch it. Using sulfur stone as a siege weapon? I'm afraid the orcs are not so stupid. ”

"However, if it wasn't for the siege of the city, why would the orcs make such a big move?"

"It's... I don't know, but I don't think the orcs have any intention of attacking the city with sulfurstone. ”

For a while, the two captains had their own opinions and quarreled.

bang

The quarrel between the two aroused Yan Zhengtian's anger, and Yan Zhengtian slapped it on the city wall and said, "Don't quarrel, what's there to quarrel about, what kind of ghost idea the beast clan is playing, just test it." ”

"Dare to ask the Legion Commander how he plans to tempt?"

"It's very simple, send a team out to feint, see what reaction the beast clan has, remember that this is just a feint, don't rush me too hard. Don't try to understand the purpose of the beast clan at that time, but put yourself in it, we won't do such a loss-making deal. ”

"Yes, Legion Commander. The subordinates will go down and prepare. Captain Wan, surnamed Zhang, commanded.

"I'll tell you Lao Zhang, when did the commander of the regiment say that you would let your first brigade go out, what are you doing so excitedly. ”

Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "Lao Niu, what you say is unreasonable, let's be reasonable, which kind of tentative action is not the first battle between my Lao Zhang and his brothers in the first brigade." ”

Niu Gang was stunned, "Oh too." Reacted casually and said: "But you can't always be in the limelight, and it should be my turn to be my old cow." ”

However, just when Niu Gang was stunned, Zhang Liang had already run under the city wall, and excitedly raised his troops and horses.

"I went, and I was fooled by this kid again. Niu Gang was not angry.

......

The military system of the Blazing Empire is very simple, 100 people are a small team, 10 small teams are a squadron, the squadron leader is also called a thousand commanders, ten squadrons are a large team, and the captain is also called 10,000 captains. Of course, this system only applies to ordinary troops, except for special classes such as the Knights and Mages.

Zhang Liang was able to stand out among 10,000 people and become a 10,000-strong commander. It is not only his fourth-order intermediate strength that depends on it, but the most important thing is his calm mind, don't look at him and his colleagues all day long, but when he arrives on the battlefield, he is like a different person, calm and terrifying.

After gathering his team, Zhang Liang rode on a tall horse and said loudly: "Brothers, I heard that the orcs besieging the city outside are very powerful. Let's go out and have a good look today, and see if those uncivilized orcs are powerful or our swords are sharp, and tell me if you have faith?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Good. ”

Zhang Liang glanced at the soldiers under his command with satisfaction, and said, "Remember, our mission this time is a feint, that is, don't rush Lao Tzu too hard, let's withdraw after a little fight, understand?"

"Understood, why do you want to feint, boss, isn't it too boring to retreat after a feint, or why don't we rush to the orc camp in a hurry and catch a few orc beauties for you to warm the bed?" a few commanders quipped.

"Fuck off, this is an order, we just want to beat out the true purpose of the orcs, remember, as many people as you go, you have to give me as many as you want, if there is one less, Lao Tzu's whip is not a vegetarian." Zhang Liang shouted loudly.

"Alright, sir, you'll see. ”

"Okay, let's go!"

Squeak

With the turn of the hinges, the suspended door slowly falls.

Zhang Liang looked at the soldiers who came out, and sighed secretly in his heart, although he said so just now, he also knew in his heart that this would more or less lose many brothers, after all, the combat effectiveness of a single orc far exceeded that of human soldiers, this is a recognized fact.

......

Inside the Orc camp.

A strong orc riding on a giant wolf rode the giant wolf under him, galloped to the big tent in the center of the camp, and shouted: "Report to the high priest, the human side has suddenly sent an army to attack us, and the great chief asked me to ask you if I want to eat this army?"

"How many people are there in the army?"

"It is estimated that there are tens of thousands. ”

"Tens of thousands? Interesting, it seems that the humans in the lost city can't bear the loneliness and plan to test us. Tell Dumont not to contact them, to withdraw all the tribesmen from the periphery, and not to worry about this army as long as it does not interfere with the work of the coolies, remember, their task is to ensure the safety of the coolies first, you know?"

"Yes, High Priest. ”

With that, the strong orc turned around and rushed towards the outside of the camp.

......

Zhang Liang led his brothers to charge for a distance of five or six miles, but he didn't see a single orc soldier along the way, which made Zhang Liang feel very strange.

"It's strange, why did these orcs retreat as soon as they saw us, you must know that their big camp is only twenty miles away, and this is five or six miles away, if we just rush to their big camp like this, can't they even want a big camp?" said a thousand commanders on Zhang Liang's left.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Zhang Liang thought. At the same time, he raised his hand, stopped the march of the army, and called a magician who accompanied the army and ordered: "Check it with the Eagle Eye Technique, I don't want to rush over in such a daze." ”

The magician replied, "Yes." ”

Immediately, a cyan eye-like pattern appeared on the magician's forehead, and his eyes turned gray.

"Chief, there's a discovery. ”

Say. ”

"I could see from Eagle Eye that the retreating orc soldiers were heading towards the places where the civilians had dug their holes, and it looked like they were defending the captured civilians. ”

"Oh, it's weird, it's a strange thing every year, there are a lot of them this year, when will these uncivilized beasts protect our civilians. Looks, what the civilians dug up was important to the orcs, otherwise they wouldn't be so nervous. Zhang Liang analyzed.

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Liang shouted: "Messenger, immediately go back to the city and report all this to the corps commander, and inform the corps commander of my analysis, and at the same time tell the corps commander that I plan to lead a squadron to the place where the civilians dug the pit to find out." ”

"Yes. ”

A messenger-like soldier immediately turned around and ran towards the city.

"Pete, let's go, take your brother and we'll go in a different direction and see what these orcs are up to. The rest of the people are repaired in place, taking care of concealment. ”

"Yes!"

With that, Zhang Liang rushed towards one of the many excavation points of the beast clan.

After a while, Zhang Liang came to an excavation point closest to the Lost City, the scale of this excavation point was very small, so the number of orc soldiers in charge of guarding was also very small, only a dozen ordinary orc infantry patrolling.

"Brothers, come with me and kill these uncivilized things. ”

Zhang Liang waved his hand and rushed out first, and at the same time, the steel knife in his hand slashed at the nearest orc infantryman.

swish

A fighting qi slash flew out, and the beast infantry who was locked by Zhang Liang's momentum was split into two pieces before he could react, and the turquoise blood splashed all over the ground.

"Kill!"

Seeing that his leader had succeeded in his blow, Pete led the remaining soldiers to rush towards the orcs in unison. The shouts of a thousand soldiers broke the silence of this excavation site.

The orc infantry apparently reacted as well, roaring and rushing towards the human soldiers.

Bang bang

The sound of weapons intersecting, screaming, and screaming mixed together for a while.

The number of human soldiers was dozens of times that of the orc infantry, and after a while, more than a dozen orc infantry fell to the ground unwillingly.

Zhang Liang wiped a handful of green blood from his face and took a sip, "MD, these things are really not weak in combat, Pete, report the loss." ”

"Fourteen brothers died, four were seriously wounded, and eight were lightly wounded. ”

"Damn, a thousand against a dozen, and nearly thirty people were lost, these damned orcs. Zhang Liang said hatefully.

"Boss, if you find something, come and take a look. A soldier more than ten meters away suddenly shouted.

Zhang Liang was stunned when he heard this, and immediately ran to the soldier's side and asked, "What did you find?"

"Look, sir. The soldier took out a small blood-red bead from the pile of sulfur stone on the ground that had not yet been loaded into the truck and handed it to Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang took it and looked at it for a long time and didn't see the reason, but he knew in his heart that the orcs were so aggressive because of the blood-red beads in the sulfur stone.

At that moment, Zhang Liang didn't dare to be careless, and immediately turned over and ordered: "Brothers, let's withdraw, and in addition, bring back all the sulfur stones here for me, and the bodies of the brothers who died in the war must also be brought back completely, do you understand?"

"Understood. ”

"Okay, let's withdraw. ”

After speaking, Zhang Liang turned his horse's head and led his soldiers to quickly retreat towards the lost city.

......

"Commander, that's the way it is. After a continental time, Zhang Liang, who returned to the labyrinth, truthfully reported the results of this temptation to Yan Zhengtian.

"Is this the little bead?" Yan Zhengtian looked at the blood-red bead in his hand, and slowly released his fighting spirit and poured it into the bead. As soon as the fighting spirit entered Yan Zhengtian, he felt a surging blood qi from the small bead, and at the same time, this blood qi kept roaring towards Yan Zhengtian's heart as if it had life.

Yan Zhengtian was startled, opened his eyes and said slowly: "What a weird thing, it seems that the beast clan is making such a big move just for this little bead, come here, send this little bead to Master Leon, and ask him to help us analyze what this little bead is for." In addition, Zhang Liang, you have made meritorious contributions to this temptation, and I will definitely ask the imperial capital for credit for you after retreating from the enemy. ”

"Captain Xie. ”

"Alright, let's all go down, and let me be alone for a while. ”

"Yes. ”

The subordinates retired one after another, and Yan Zhengtian stayed alone in the lobby, constantly thinking about something.
