Chapter 278: War (6)
Chapter 278
Listening to the words of these subordinates, Lord Tianyu smiled more and more happily, but after a while, he said with some positive colors, "Although the situation seems to be clear, our vigilance must not be lowered, but we must pay more attention to the other party's movements, and we must not make any mistakes." In addition, the treasure is about to be opened, I think, the rumors may not be controllable, there must be a lot of forces involved in it at that time, to get a piece of the pie, we must be prepared, small forces must not be able to infiltrate, large forces must also control interests, otherwise we will not be able to explain!"
"Yes!" the four replied in unison.
"Deputy Leader, is it Zhao Gongming's army in front?" Twenty-one people crouched on a small sand dune, staring at a continuous camp not far ahead, and beside Wan Tingjun, an elder asked in a low voice.
Wan Tingjun looked at it carefully, with a slightly puzzled look in his eyes, although there was indeed Zhao Gongming's military flag in the military camp opposite, but the number of people seemed to be less than half of when he was at the beginning, and the original 100,000 army seemed to be less than 40,000 or 50,000 at the moment.
Looking at the sky, Wan Tingjun said to the twenty people beside him, "Let's wait here first, and when it gets dark, let's go in and have a look." ”
"Yes!"
Night, Zhao Gongming's military camp
Countless torches were lit, and in the middle of the night, the army, which was supposed to be resting, became even more nervous, and in this place, not a single soldier dared to sleep with peace of mind, and in these two days the number of dead soldiers had reached a hundred, and every one of them was terrifying and terrifying.
A general stood on a high place, directing a group of soldiers to exit the barracks in an orderly manner and run in one direction. In the barracks, there were still tens of thousands of soldiers on standby, waiting for the order to retreat. Although there were many people retreating, there was not too much noise, on the one hand, to avoid alarming the army of Longshan Kingdom, and on the other hand, no one wanted to speak in this somewhat gloomy atmosphere.
Wan Tingjun quietly walked through the countless big tents, looking for the old man. The big tents in the barracks were arranged in an orderly manner, so Wan Tingjun quickly found a familiar tent, and from a distance, he heard a familiar voice coming from the tent.
With a happy face, Wan Tingjun ran towards the tent. Wan Tingjun, who was about to approach his old friend's tent, suddenly froze his figure, and looked at the suddenly black and oppressive thing in the distance in the distance, and he didn't know what was rushing towards here in the firelight, and everywhere he went, the firelight was suddenly extinguished, and everything fell into darkness.
At the same time, a terrible horn sounded from the barracks, alarming all the soldiers, and in the darkness, I don't know who shouted "Rats are coming!" Suddenly, an atmosphere of panic spread among the soldiers who rushed out of the tent.
Why are you afraid of a rat? Is there something strange about this? Wan Tingjun thought about it for a while, but decided not to see his old friend for the time being, but dodged and hid aside, quietly watching the exhibition of things.
The next moment, Zhao Wanglang, the monkeys, the pillars, and the stones all rushed out of the tent with armor and armor, and looking at the black pressure surging like a flood, the monkey shouted, "Mamma Mia, are these rats?"
"The more you come, the more you kill. I don't believe that people can really be afraid of a brute!" The pillar slowly closed his visor, and the big sword in his hand trembled with some excitement, obviously the strong battle intent had been provoked.
"Pillar, don't be impulsive, let's follow the big army!" Zhao Wanglang grabbed the pillar's shoulder with his hand, afraid that he would be really excited, so he rushed forward, and no one would be able to kill him at that time.
"The eastern battalion immediately withdraws from the camp tent, and the western battalion builds a defensive line with heavy armor to gain time for the retreat!" shouted a general of no low status in the army.
"We're Dongying, let's go quickly. The monkey shouted.
"Pillar, go!" Zhao Wanglang also pulled the pillar's belligerent body, and was about to drag him out of here.
The pillar shook the big sword in his hand a little discouraged, snorted, and quickly followed the countless Dongying soldiers towards the established route outside the barracks.
Wan Tingjun stood quietly behind, not running out of the barracks, but trying to find out what was going on here, but rushed towards the place where the heavy shields were erected at this moment. Suddenly, Wan Tingjun passed by a person, and that person also shouted in surprise, "Wan Tingjun!"
Wan Tingjun was startled, looked back, and now he turned out to be a stone, just wanted to go up to say hello, the stone was driven away by countless Dongying soldiers who rushed towards the outside of the barracks, Wan Tingjun shook his head, and continued to run towards the Xiying heavy armor.
Thor's iron-powered body was so obvious even in the dark night, at this moment he was holding a big shield and a heavy sword, standing behind a row of heavily armored soldiers, looking at the mice rushing up densely in front of him, his expression was nervous, waiting for the right time, and suddenly roared, "Use fire oil!"
With fire oil, Wan Tingjun quickly hid to the side, trying to see what was going on.
Hundreds of heavily armored soldiers in the back row suddenly put down the big shields in their hands, and instead lifted buckets of fire oil from the ground, and then poured them down the front along the big shields of the soldiers in the first row. The black oil spread wildly, and when countless rats had been contaminated with the oil, and the first mouse had begun to hit the shield, Thor Tieli took a torch from his side, and then threw it forward.
"Boom"
The boundless fire ignited in an instant, illuminating half of the sky and reflecting it as if it were day. Wan Tingjun was shocked by the situation in the fire, in the boundless fire, the rats like a black torrent screamed and the whole body ignited flames, squeaky screams rang out everywhere, connected into a piece, but although the rats in front were burned like this, the rats in the rear were still rushing forward one after another, and then suffered the same fire, screaming, and then trampled and covered by the new rats in the rear.
How could this be? Wan Tingjun looked at the scene in front of him, and secretly thought in his heart, aren't the rats afraid of fire? How could they rush towards the flames so frantically.
"Hey, pay attention to their eyes, sure enough, they are red, I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that these rats are really contaminated with some kind of drug, crazy. Far away from Wan Tingjun's side, a heavily armored soldier waiting in front said to his partner beside him.
Wan Tingjun's keen ears caught this passage and looked at the mouse in front of him, and sure enough, there was a trace of red in the pupils of each mouse, making the mouse look extremely weird.
Wan Tingjun seemed to understand something in his heart, could it be that the drugs that make people curse the dead have polluted the rats? If this is the case, judging from the situation of these rats, this is also too terrifying.
Wan Tingjun thought secretly, his body slowly retreated, and then quickly left here.
Thirty miles away from this barracks, there is a newly built barracks, at this moment, tens of thousands of soldiers are rushing towards this barracks, and in the barracks, a continuous fire light is lit at the same time, after seeing the identity of the soldiers who rushed over, the door of the barracks is also slowly opened, and then, tens of thousands of soldiers who have already lived here began to order the new soldiers to maintain order, and then arrange accommodation.
Zhao Gongming, Fang Tian and a group of generals stepped on their war horses, rushed out of the camp tent, and ran towards the original military camp that was burning with flames.
"General, it's too dangerous there now, no one knows what will happen, so don't go over. Fang Tian shouted at Zhao Gongming on the back of the galloping horse in front of him.
Zhao Gongming didn't respond to him, but whipped him the horse's back, and then ran forward faster.
Fang Tian helplessly watched as Zhao Gongming's war horse gradually left him and the others behind, so he had to speed up the degree of the war horse and rushed forward as well.
Wan Tingjun returned to the twenty members of the Immortal Sect waiting behind a sand dune at this moment, and everyone came up to ask about the situation the moment Wan Tingjun returned. The raging flames in front of them had long worried everyone, and they didn't know what was going on.
Wan Tingjun looked at everyone's eyes and said a little heavily, "We may be late." ”
Everyone was shocked, and one of the elders asked puzzledly, "Deputy Master, what does this mean? ”
Wan Tingjun sighed and said, "The raging flames you saw just now were burned by the soldiers when they were dealing with the rats that had lost control. According to my estimate, the rats were contaminated with drugs that could turn people into cursed corpses, and since the rats were not the target of the staff army, it proved that the drugs must have flowed out a long time ago, and all the soldiers must have been infected a long time ago, but they hadn't done it yet. ”
When everyone heard Wan Tingjun say this, they were all gloomy, and one disciple said, "Then wouldn't it be meaningless for us to come over like this?" We've all been infected, and it's useless for us to come back. ”
The people next to him were all silent, although this sentence was very deflating, but no one could point out the error of this sentence, indeed, now they are in an awkward situation.
"There will always be a time when things will be bright, maybe there will be some turnaround, if we all give up now, then no one will be able to debunk the conspiracy of the staff family. Wan Tingjun encouraged, "Let's go to General Zhao Gongming in the army tomorrow and explain all this clearly, so that they can also take precautions." Let's have a good rest tonight. ”
Everyone nodded, and they all dispersed, each finding a place to rest.
Wan Tingjun sat quietly on the sand dune, but suddenly remembered something, looked in the direction of Longshan Country, hesitated for a moment, walked to the side of an elder, whispered two words, and then ran in the direction of Longshan Country.
What is this breath? As if something amazing is about to come out, all the way, it is getting stronger and stronger, is it really in the military camp of Longshan Kingdom?
Wan Tingjun thought about it, his figure had already arrived outside the military camp of Longshan Kingdom, looking at the seemingly heavily defended appearance in front of him, Wan Tingjun chuckled, and then easily bypassed the defense and entered the barracks.
Half an hour later, Wan Tingjun suddenly rushed out of the barracks, shook his head slowly, and then looked at a piece of yellow sand in the distance, where there were countless heavy guards, although in the dark night, but it was still bright, and there were countless sergeants on duty at night, even the monstrous flames in Zhao Gongming's barracks a little far away did not alarm the guards there.
It turned out to be there, not in the barracks. Wan Tingjun nodded secretly, and then rushed towards the place quickly.
Endless sand dunes, behind every two sand dunes, there are at least three soldiers on duty, in this small area, Wan Tingjun went around, roughly estimated, Longshan Country at least invested 100,000 soldiers here, the whole area, except for a place in the center, densely packed with people, so Wan Tingjun reluctantly gave up after a circle, there is no loophole here, it is difficult to sneak in.
Despite this, Wan Tingjun didn't want to give up, in his heart, there was a strong feeling, which seemed to resonate with something underground, and in his heart, there was a strange qi machine that seemed to be calling for that thing underground.
What the hell is it? Wan Tingjun racked his brains, but he couldn't figure out what it was, because there were only a few things on his body, and he didn't fully understand what he had recently cultivated, which was too mysterious, and it was difficult for him to grasp the essence, so if there was really something that had a strange reaction, Wan Tingjun estimated, **This is the B method.
However, the second method is not a thing, but his own cultivation method, can it also be related to something? Wan Tingjun's eyes were blazing, and if there was substance in his eyes, it seemed that he wanted to see through the yellow sand and see clearly what was underneath, but invisibly there was an ability to block Wan Tingjun's prying eyes.
What the hell is it? Wan Tingjun's heart swelled with great interest, because even the Qilin's instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil also had a great reaction at this moment, and a strong feeling of wanting to be close filled Wan Tingjun's heart. "Brothers, help me take a look, I'll go to the bathroom." A soldier on duty said to a few of his companions.
"Hurry up, it's not like being in the barracks now, and if something happens, you're going to turn around. A companion next to him reminded.
The soldier hummed a few times, then trotted to a secluded place, pulled down his pants, and began to rejoice.
But what he didn't expect was that in the darkness, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out quickly, covering the soldier's mouth tightly, and then the other hand knocked heavily on the back of his neck, and the soldier fainted instantly.
