Chapter 16 Can't Run

Lu Jingzhi waved his hand and shouted in a low voice: "Now I order, all go back." Run back to the village. Uncle carpenter, uncle charcoalsmith, take the women and children first. "Since you can't move forward, you can only go backwards. When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic, and once it is decided, it must be fast.

The charcoal maker didn't reflect when he heard this, but the carpenter knew that something big must happen, so without saying a word, he took the charcoal maker's child and hurried back. As he walked, he said to the child on his shoulder: "Don't move, your father has to pull your mother to run, I will carry you a few steps tightly, and when they catch up, you will come down and run along." Now take a breath. "The children of the charcoal craftsman's family have a strong personality, they have always refused to lag behind, and their physical strength is limited after all, and it is no longer possible to rush back to the village at the same speed as before. Looking back, sure enough, my father had already pulled my panicked mother to follow.

Lu Jingzhi asked the stupid big man to squat down, jumped up and jumped to the stupid neck, rode on his shoulder, patted his head and said: "Now you carry me and run towards the village, and when you run to the place where you threw the sulfur just now, stop and rest, and by the way, change the stupid two to carry me." Then he asked the two ghost pawns to follow him with zombie auxiliaries.

Since Silly Da followed this little master, he has enough to eat, enough water to drink, sleep until he wakes up naturally, and there are countless things that can be used to consume his physical strength, and his life is no longer comfortable. At this time, not to mention running a few steps with him, even if he ran all the way to the castle, at most he was tired and lay down, and there was no reluctance in his heart. Hearing that his master had pointed out the direction, he hurried forward with all his might, and in a few moments overtook the charcoal maker and his wife, and then ran a few paces closer to the carpenter and the charcoal maker's son, and ran away all the way.

Ados's army set out after hearing scouts report that the border village of Sulphur Lake would be attacked by the Duke of Windsor's tax party. According to past experience, by the time they arrived at Sulphur Lake Village, the Wensha tax collection team would have run away long ago, and he could only bring two or three more villagers over to pay the tax at most, and by the way punish them for their deference to the enemy. Although he failed to collect a serious tax every time, in order to declare his jurisdiction over Sulphur Lake Village, he would still chase after the tax collection team of the Duke of Windsor every time. On the other hand, if his own tax collection team is in front of the tax, the tax collection team of the Duke of Windsor will also come and expel it.

But this time, the scout reported that the tax collection team would stay in Sulphur Lake Village, and it seemed that there was a possibility of a permanent stay. This is a blatant provocation. Since the Duke of Windsor invaded Lord Ados, the fighting has ceased for more than a hundred years, and no one has stationed troops in the village of Sulphur Lake. In the past few years, everyone has only seen who is fighting for taxes, and no one has ever dared to occupy Wo Lake Village. Because it is a place where sulfur is produced, although the strategic value is almost zero, the economic value is very large. Whoever dares to upset this delicate balance will bear the responsibility of rekindling the flames of war.

The former Prime Minister, Lord Ados, was a very wise undead, and there were four high-ranking undead knights under his command, namely the mountain legion leader Balonert, the infantry legion Gomez, the cavalry legion leader Leonardo, and the Valkyrie Freya. Under each high-level undead knight, there are several to dozens of knights, and under each knight, there are a number of undead infantry, and there are countless auxiliary zombie soldiers or skeleton soldiers. As for human beings, they simply cannot go to war. These undead knights have a high sense of honor, in their opinion, the battlefield and even the war are extremely romantic, ordinary zombie soldiers can only play the role of stabilizing the front, and human beings, a fragile and low-end lifeform, can only become the trophies of the victor.

Ados, who received the report, did not take Lu Jingzhi's tax collection team seriously, but was only annoyed by the provocation of the Duke of Windsor. In his opinion, it was rude for the Duke of Windsor to station his soldiers in the village of Sulphur Lake, which they called the Border Village, without informing him, and it was necessary for him to teach the Duke of Windsor how to be a qualified undead nobleman by force.

The mission of this sortie was given to Gomez, a high-ranking undead knight with great intelligence. It is said that his wisdom is only manifested on the battlefield. The infantry corps has no regard for combat methods at all, and even if it has an absolute superiority in troops, it has to make complex traps for the opponent to jump. If Captain Gomez personally led the troops to fight this time, Lu Jingzhi and them would only have one ending of dying in battle. Fortunately, Lord Gomez had other priorities this time, so he entrusted the task of attacking to his most powerful lieutenant, Nado. Nado is not an undead nobleman, nor is he a high-ranking knight, just an ordinary knight. But his execution ability is very good, and he is very valued by the Legion Commander, so this expulsion operation will be handed over to Nado.

Nado inquired carefully, and this time, Duke Windsor's side had only two light infantry and four zombie auxiliaries stationed in the village of Brimstone Lake, as well as three human slaves. So he tripled the strength of the opponent - six infantry, twelve zombie auxiliaries, and nine more human slaves, just to make up exactly three times the number. In his opinion, three times the number of troops is enough to complete the task, and no matter how many sorties are dispatched, it will only waste combat costs.

What Lu Jingzhi saw was the smoke and dust raised by this army when it was marching.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and when he saw the smoke and dust, he immediately decided to retreat to the village. If he wants to lead the team back to the castle, he will be pursued by Nado. At that point, even if he threw away all his people and supplies, it would be difficult for him to escape far - after all, there were six undead infantry on the other side, twice as many as on his side, and there were even more zombie minions.

Stupidly running, the speed is not much worse than that of a galloping horse. In a few moments, we arrived at the place where the sulfur had been discarded. When Lu Jingzhi saw the car from a distance, he pulled his stupid ears and shouted at him to stop, but by the time he really stopped, it was already more than ten meters away from the car.

Back at the side of the car, his own undead infantry and zombie auxiliaries also arrived. Lu Jingzhi asked the zombie auxiliaries to pick up the four baskets of sulfur that they had thrown away before, and then threw them along the road, the density of the throwing should be sparse first and then dense, and they should be sprinkled from the road to the side of the road, and even asked to throw large pieces of sulfur far away. Two truckloads of sulphur were to be pushed back to the village for strategic expenditure.

"Silly two, you have returned to the village with the young master. Lu Jingzhi saw that the two undead infantry under his command pushed the wheelbarrow back to the village first, and then rode to the neck of the fool Er, and said to the fool: "Silly big, help the young master do something." You run to the village first, find a tool, and dig a trap at the intersection outside the village, which is the kind of big pit you usually hunt wild boars, and the young master will be of great use when he returns to the village. ”

Silly Er carried Lu Jingzhi, and his speed was a little slower than Silly Da after all, and he couldn't even compare to the undead infantry who were pushing the cart and running away. However, the charcoal smith's family and the carpenter's uncle in the back were much slower. It wasn't until Lu Jingzhi entered the village and sat on the main seat of the young village chief's house that the villagers saw the figures of charcoal craftsmen and carpenters on the road leading to the outside at the entrance of the village.

Silly Da was digging a pit with a group of villagers, and the young village chief watched worriedly from the side, the tax collector went and rebelled, and was just in time for the "opposite" tax collection team to lead the troops. This is the rhythm of the fight. As usual, although it was hard to collect taxes twice a year, I was able to barely get by. But if there is a war, you can't afford to offend either side. If the young tax collector wins, then it is better to say, if he loses, it will be a catastrophe for the destruction of the village. But he didn't have the courage to resist the tax collector, and it was a matter of minutes for those two ghost pawns and four zombies to destroy their own village. I didn't dare to offend, so I had to deal with it for the time being.

Of course, Lu Jingzhi could see what the young village chief was thinking, there was nothing wrong with this, and if he changed himself, he would also worry about the safety of the villagers.

"Brother village chief, are you busy?" Lu Jingzhi walked to the young village chief with two bodyguards.

"My lord, is this really going to war?" said the young village chief's voice with some trepidation.

Lu Jingzhi shook his head and said, "Do you think I look like a person who can fight? How old am I, how dare I learn from others to fight." ”

When the young village chief heard this, he thought that it was indeed reasonable, and his heart was a little calmer, and he said, "Then what are you digging this big pit for?"

Lu Jingzhi: "Of course it's a trap." "This pit is not dug as a trap, are we digging our own grave?

The young village chief smiled miserably and said, "My lord, aren't you still going to fight?"

Lu Jingzhi still shook his head and said, "If you don't fight, you can't fight." "With his own strength, it's not enough for others to see.

What trap do you dig if you don't fight? Do you want to pretend to negotiate and then ......? The young village chief saw a conference table set up on a large pit, and the tax collector and his men sat on one side of the field, while the "opposite" side sat on the pit. The tax collector suddenly waved his hand with a hideous face, and the person on the other side fell into the pit with the table. Cries for help were heard from the pit, and the tax collector laughed triumphantly.

"My lord," the young village chief asked, a little worried, "are they so easily fooled?"

"You have to be fooled!" Lu Jingzhi said confidently: "Young Master, if I make a move, they won't have a choice." ”

The young village chief disagreed, and said secretly: "Where is the war like your children playing games, and they will do whatever they want?" The plans of the adults will come true. ”

Lu Jingzhi heard that the young village chief was insincere, rolled his eyes, and ignored him. Seeing this, the young village chief still had to smile bitterly.

In normal times, digging such a large pit, a hunter would have to dig it for at least a day. Fortunately, Silly has a lot of strength, and with the help of others, the progress is almost twice as fast, and after Silly Er entered the village, he also joined immediately, and it didn't take half an hour for the pit to be dug. Lu Jingzhi walked over and instructed people to camouflage on the pit, put a large dining table on it, set up cups and plates, and put a large handful of mountain flowers and wild grasses picked by the villagers, and laid a red felt as a carpet under the table, and the trap under the carpet was supported by the remaining wood from the car, even if a dozen or so people stood up. Only when the trap is triggered, the support falls, and the person standing on the carpet will fall into the trap. This trap method is also seen in an ancient book called "Luban Book", but it was made in a hurry and is inevitably rudimentary. As for what was in the trap, the village chief and the villagers didn't know anything, only Lu Jingzhi and Silly Dasha Er, who arranged the trap, knew about it, and they didn't even let the ghost pawns and zombie auxiliaries see it.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
