Chapter 14 The Fruit of Disappearance

Purple vines pushed away the large and small stones on the ground, and sprung up all over the ground like mushrooms after a rain, and the rising earth mountain was soon hidden in a purple shadow.

For a long time, it was believed that the main components of plants were earth, water, and light, and this belief hindered the progress of magical theory.

If earth magic is one of life-creating magic, it is undoubtedly a major blow to the original classification of fierce and inert magic, an idea that has always hung over the head of the magical taxonomy.

It wasn't until people invented the element scale that could weigh the content of different elements that it was discovered that only water was the largest in plants, and the content of soil and light was very small, and there were even plants that did not contain these two types of elements.

The life magic that was born after that is therefore believed to have been born out of water-based magic.

It has also been discovered that plants need earth and light because plants are also a type of life, just as humans can use magic, plants can also use elements other than the water system for energy for life activities.

As a result, some people began to explore the artificial creation of plants that consume other elements to grow, and the fruit is one of the products born in this exploration process.

Siwei is no stranger to this plant, and it can even be said that it is very familiar.

The main body of Hansai's buildings is basically underground, and the dark and earth elements that are rich in the ground have a great impact on people, and the combat effectiveness of the army stationed in this environment for a long time will be greatly reduced.

In order to improve the elemental environment, the Western Military Department and the Western Military Magic Academy carried out relevant research, and finally someone proposed to absorb the dark element and earth element through plants, and the product of this proposal was the Dark Fruit.

It has to be said that the appearance of the dismal fruit not only made the long-term garrison in Hansei a reality, but also brought good news to the Hansean natives, who once lived an average life expectancy of no more than 40 years.

For this reason, the Hansei often referred to this plant as the "dark fruit" to expel darkness.

So when Si Wei saw the bag of purple fruits that Chun Mengya had handed over to him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Yuan was still stunned when he saw that it was the kind of fruit that Chun Mengya had eaten for him at first.

I didn't expect this plant to be tailor-made for Longlingji, and the rest is how to make this plant grow quickly.

As a soldier, all intense magic is a must for Sway, and he can control the abundance of dark and earth elements to be infused into the Fruit of Discoloration.

But this is not enough, without the cooperation of people who are familiar with life magic or water magic, plants simply cannot digest so much energy.

Si Wei had to take Zhang Yuan and Chengge back to Chun Mengya's tent, because when it came to this, she was the most familiar with life magic.

Chun Mengya was still sitting in the tent reading a book, while Si Wei lowered her posture this time, and bowed in front of the tent and said loudly:

"Si has something to ask for, and I ask Miss Chun to help."

Chun Mengya heard the shouts from outside, as if she had known that Si Wei would come to invite her, put down the book, and walked out with unhurried steps.

"Lead the way, General Si."

So there was the scene that Zhang Yuan saw, countless purple vines became the best cover for the ambush soldiers, and at Chun Mengya's suggestion, Si Wei also added some gentle slopes next to the original earthen bag to make it look as natural as possible.

And these vines are the kind of vines that Zhang Yuan has seen in Chun Mengya's mansion, and it turns out that the kind of fruit he eats is grown by Chun Mengya herself.

Si Wei was already smiling from ear to ear, not only was the ambush not a problem, but there was also food. There are so many vines, because of the abundant energy, there are already a lot of budding bones on them.

It is estimated that it will not be long before these vines will bear fruit, and then they will be able to rely half on military rations and half on fruits.

At the invitation of Si Wei, Chun Mengya appeared at the military conference with Zhang Yuan and Chengge.

Before this, Si Wei had never seen the private armed forces brought by Chun Mengya, and in his opinion, they were just a rabble, so the military council never informed Chun Mengya, and the visit was just a whim and a private person.

And this time, from Zhang Yuan's proposal to Chun Mengya's assistance, Si Wei realized that he was not a fully qualified general, first, negligence almost caused a big mistake, and second, he would not use the strength of his subordinates reasonably.

Si Wei finally put down his shelf and sincerely thanked Chun Mengya and Zhang Yuan at the military meeting.

Hansexi, near Longlingji.

A cavalry in brown light armor was galloping through the narrow valley, when one of the cavalrymen at the head suddenly grabbed the reins and stopped the horse, and then he raised his hand, and the cavalry behind him also slowed down with him.

"There is the sound of water ahead, it should be near Longling Rock." As he spoke, he put his hand in the pocket on his horse's back, took out a roll of paper, and opened it to see that it was a map of the entire western part of Hanse.

The cavalryman tapped his finger on the map, turned to one of the cavalrymen behind him and asked:

"The person I just sent out to contact hasn't come back."

"Report to the general, not yet."

It turned out that these men were the troops sent by Vanibal to pursue, and when the general heard the reply of his men, he smiled playfully and said:

"The people of the former army are waste, otherwise they would not be chased by a person, and if they walk slowly like them, they will never try to catch up with the Hanseill troops in this life."

As he spoke, he put the map in his pocket, turned his horse's head to face all his men, and said in a loud voice:

"Brethren, the army of the Hanseilles is not far off, we will not wait for the bastards of the front army, we ourselves will catch up with them and end up with them. Burn the wind! ”

"Yes!"

After about ten minutes, this cavalry appeared near Longlingji, and the cavalry would take the lead in crossing the river, and while the people behind him were still crossing the river, he looked around, sighed lightly, and took out the map from his pocket again and looked at it.

"No, isn't there a fortress here?" As he spoke, he rode to a hill, looked at the map and muttered, "The people in the astrology group are too unreliable, this is obviously a mountain, how did it become a city." ”

He casually picked a fruit from the vine next to him, stuffed it directly into his mouth and took a bite.

"It tastes good."

What he didn't know was that there was a pair of eyes staring at him all the time, and Siwei had set up many observation holes around the mountain, and many soldiers were constantly observing the outside world in front of these observation holes.

Soon Siwei received the news.

"Report to the general, there was a light cavalry outside just now, crossing the river."

"I see, let's hold my ground for now." Si Wei nodded, looked at the soldier who turned to leave, and suddenly spoke again. "You go and ask the people in the communication room to contact General Ai, and say that a cavalry has crossed the river and is headed for Hanse, and ask him to send someone to pick up the brothers who have not yet retreated into Hanse."

"Yes."

Si Wei turned his head to look at Zhang Yuan and Chun Mengya in front of him, and said with a smile:

"It's really bad to be a shrunken turtle here, when the time comes, I must give Ganghe people a big surprise."

The sergeant major next to him echoed: "That's right, when the time comes, they must be buried with all the brothers who died in Saimenxia." ”

At this time, Zhang Yuan suddenly asked, "General Si, why did you say that this Ganghe is so good is attacking us." ”

Si Wei shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "How do I know this?" The devil knows what kind of nerves they are coming to attack Hanse. ”

"Because Hanses had no God's protection, they felt that there was an opportunity to take Hanses so that access to other cities west of Kitcher would be unimpeded." It was Chun Mengya who had been silent all the time who spoke, and even when she spoke, she stared at the book in her hand without raising her head.

"Oh, that's not true. It's only been a few days since you killed the general, and they've been calling for it, and the information hasn't even arrived. Siwei said disappreciatively.

This will Chun Mengya finally put down the book in her hand, looked up at Si Wei and said:

"The temple is there, it doesn't mean that God is also there, it will be perverse, Hanse has long lost the protection of God, as for why Ganghe came to attack Hanse at this time, it is probably because there is something in the astrological world."

"Hmph, those people in the temple are nothing more than wine bags and rice bags, even if there is no supreme god, as long as the god of war blesses the Kicher soldiers and the Hanseilles, we will not fail."

Chun Mengya didn't say anything, just looked down at the book again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Zhang Yuan coughed and suggested:

"General Si, have you ever thought about fighting guerrillas?"

"Oh, guerrilla, is that some tactic?" Si Wei took a chair, sat down, and looked at Zhang Yuan with a curious look.

"My idea is to send some soldiers outside, and then divide into groups of a dozen people and attack the enemy at the right time. It just so happens that the enemy's cavalry has also gone far, and we can take advantage of the complex terrain here to harass the enemy around Longling Rock. ”

Si Wei asked a sergeant major around him to find a map, spread it out on the table, pointed to the surroundings of Longlingji and said:

"Your idea sounds good, let's talk about how to implement it."

As soon as Zhang Yuan heard the specific implementation, he immediately had a big head, and just said it casually, but Si Wei asked him to talk about the details. Although he was not familiar with the situation, Zhang Yuan still walked in front of the map.

"I don't know much about the terrain around here, so I'm just going to briefly talk about the shortcomings, and I hope you can correct them."

Zhang Yuan looked around and found that everyone was listening very carefully, even Chun Mengya put down the book and cast a curious gaze, and Chengge, who didn't know where to run just now, also came over to listen to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan swallowed his saliva, looked at the map and said: "You see, in such a long valley, there is only such a road, and this road is also cut off by the river, we can send small groups of men and horses on both sides of the river to harass the enemy."

If the enemy sends some of them to cross the river first, we will surprise him by attack while they have not yet crossed the river. If they cross the river in large numbers, we will attack those who have not had time to cross the river on the opposite side.

Not only that, but you can also send people to set up an ambush along the road, and as soon as the enemy comes, rush out, kill a few people and run. You can also sneak attack them at night, when they are all asleep, even if you don't sneak attack, sending a few people to make a disturbance on the surrounding mountains can also affect their rest. ”

Si Wei listened and listened, his eyes bulged out, and as soon as Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he slapped his thigh and shouted: "What a guerrilla tactic, if I encounter this kind of fighting, I have to be tortured and crazy, so good." ”

The surrounding sergeant major and Chengge also applauded, and Chun Mengya looked at Zhang Yuan with a smile. Zhang Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, he just borrowed the wisdom of his predecessors, of course he was not the predecessors of this world.

Si Wei pointed to the sergeant majors who applauded, and scolded with a smile: "You see that you have been a soldier for so many years, you are not as good as others Zhang Yuan, hurry up and think about how to distribute the troops, where to implement that guerrilla tactic, don't compare with others." ”

"Yes."

The sergeant majors were all blushing when they said this, and they hurried to the map and said a word.

At this time, Wannibal, who had just left Saimen Gorge, did not know what kind of enemy he would face in the valley that stretched for hundreds of miles.
