"Cao Cao broke the magic army in Kuangting, and then surrounded the mound; The technique went to Xiangyi, and then to Ningling. the pursuit, even break it. ”

Putting down the short note in his hand, Zhou Ping looked at the soldier who sent the information with great satisfaction, this person is from the side of the salt lake - since Zhou Ping took charge of the salt lake, the illegal salt trade has been in full swing, in the face of absolute interests, it has been proved that no matter how big the wind and snow can not stop the footsteps of the illegal salt dealers. And with the development of the illicit salt trade, Zhou Ping finally obtained a fairly useful intelligence channel.

The merchant in your distance heard that so-and-so was at war with so-and-so.

Under this sense of déjà vu, Zhou Ping couldn't help but wonder if one day a villager somewhere would suddenly share the technology of black powder with him.

Far away, it is relatively unlikely that something like black powder will appear in this era, but there seem to be a lot of things with the same lethality as black powder in this era.

Regardless of the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, taking the current situation as an example, his ally Gongsun Yuan seems to have been drumming up some new gadgets recently.

"Virtuous teacher, Dong Bai has arrived."

Zhou Ping just thought of Gongsun Yuan here, and the news of Dong Bai's return came from the herald over there - Gongsun Yuan's territory is bordering Yuan Shao, if it really fights, it will naturally become the front line, according to the agreement between the two, Zhou Ping is going to send troops over for him to mobilize. Whether it is strength, loyalty, or confidence in the generals themselves, Dong Bai's Hundred Beast Battalion is undoubtedly the best choice.

In addition to the above reasons, on the other hand, although Zhou Ping forcibly suppressed the grievances between Dong Bai and Sun Ping, it is better for the two to not be together on weekdays.

"Here, tell me what you see."

I really cared a little about things, so I didn't have too many pleasantries, and Zhou Ping went straight to the point. According to the information that Dong Bai sent back before, in addition to inheriting Zhang Yan's Wind and Thunder Battalion, it seems that Gongsun Yuan has created another new cultivator army, and reporting this important information in person is the purpose of Dong Bai's return this time.

"Hmmm......"

Dong Bai nodded, and then shared what he had seen and heard with Zhou Pingyi.

Although Gongsun Yuan is a Han Chinese, he was born in Liaodong, where there are many alien races in the north, and the alien race is good at witchcraft, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, Gongsun Yuan also practiced a lot of alien witchcraft, and even he traveled through time and space to the present, which is also the credit of alien witchcraft. And the new army compiled by Gongsun Yuan was selected and formed by a group of ordinary people after practicing Gongsun Yuan's alien witchcraft.

Because it is mostly a secret temptation, Dong Bai doesn't know much about the name of this new army, but for the fighting method of this new army, Dong Bai happened to see the scene of their training.

"Aside from the means of attack, those people look no different from ordinary soldiers, if they are mixed with ordinary soldiers, let alone appearance, they can't even feel the fluctuation of true qi. As for their means of attack...... You take a look at this first. ”

As he spoke, Dong Bai took out a charm made of thatch and linen from his arms, and Zhou Ping took it and looked at it carefully. I saw that it was stained with dried blood, and at the same time there were mottled erosion marks, which should have been used.

"This is what I picked up after their training, and that's what they used to attack - throw this thing out, and it will explode when it hits the ground, and its range can be large and small, and the big ones are even two or three feet ......away."

Isn't this just a grenade, hearing this, Zhou Ping instantly had a sense of déjà vu, just now he was still thinking about black powder, so he got a grenade here, could it be said that this is the legendary word and method?

Dong Bai naturally didn't know Zhou Ping's thoughts, she paused and continued.

“…… And from what I've seen, the power of these spells seems to be related to the level of the spell maker, and the power fluctuates greatly, even if the spell is thrown by the same person, the explosion caused can be different. ”

"Volatile lot? ……”

"That's right, I heard it with my own ears, a few spells made by a few soldiers during training couldn't be blown up at all, so Gongsun Yuan reprimanded them, it looked quite harsh."

"That's ......"

Hearing Dong Bai say this, Zhou Ping couldn't help but think deeply, the reason for Gongsun Yuan's harsh reprimand may be very simple, it's just that he simply has high requirements for soldiers, but is there another possibility, that is, Gongsun Yuan's harsh reprimand is not just because his majesty is strict, but because there are some restrictions on making this kind of charm, after all, if this thing can be made with only ordinary thatch and linen, he should have taken it out and swept the world a long time ago.

"By the way, over there in the Hundred Beast Camp, Gongsun Yuan should have also come to spy on it, right?"

Turning his head, Zhou Ping couldn't help but think that if he was spying on the other party's news, Gongsun Yuan over there would definitely also spy on the secrets of his Hundred Beast Camp.

"Yes, there are always people coming to peek when we train, but I have been driven back, what's the matter, do you need to be tougher?"

"No, it's just a normal level of espionage, to be an ally, this tacit understanding still has to be there; However, it should also be noted that if Gongsun Yuan crosses the line too much, it should be picked out. ”

……

At the same time that Dong Bai reported to Zhou Ping, another similar conversation was also going on in Taiyuan County, which is adjacent to Hedong County.

"Whew...... Call...... Lord! ”

Dancing a set of boxing, the man dressed as a woodcutter held his fists in front of Gongsun Yuan, and after some activities, especially in the middle, there were a lot of difficult movements, which made this not very strong man a little short.

“…… Nice......"

After being stunned for a few seconds, Gongsun Yuan nodded a little absentmindedly, it was not that he was perfunctory, on the contrary, he had been immersed in every movement of the opponent's set of punches, and a seemingly unintentional hand was to be taken out by him to taste and taste again.

“…… Why don't you do it again? ”

"Yes."

This time, Gongsun Yuan simply stood up and fought with the other party like a gourd, but after following it again, he still didn't get anything except for sweating in this cold spring season.

"It seems that this set of punches alone is still not good without the help of magic tricks......"

After muttering to himself, Gongsun Yuan looked at the man, he reached out and summoned a money bag, and the heavy weight made the man's arm tremble.

"You go and get in touch with the ordinary soldiers in the Hundred Beast Camp again, and see if you can get some of their mental tricks."

“…… Be! ”

The man tossed the money bag again, although he promised happily, but under the weight of the money bag, he didn't intend to tell Gongsun Yuan that because he was wandering around the Hundred Beast Camp too often, the female commander at the head had already given him an ultimatum - if he wandered around the neighborhood any longer, she would have to carry his head to see Gongsun Yuan.

Watching the man leave with an expressionless face, Gongsun Yuan turned around and walked towards the inner room, passing through a corridor that was not very long, and then went down the steps, and as he got farther and farther from the ground, the smell of blood in the air became heavier and heavier.

"Great Witch Wish."

Seeing Gongsun Yuan, the two soldiers guarding the door of the cellar hurriedly saluted, these two soldiers had mottled oil paint on their faces, and they were not wearing ordinary armor, but foreign costumes decorated with fur.

"Hmm."

The door was pushed open, and an incomparably rich bloody aura rushed towards him, and the very spacious cellar was full of all kinds of torsos like a meat cellar, some dead and some half-dead, some beasts and half-humans and half-beasts, if a local cultivator from Taiyuan County was there, they would definitely be able to recognize that these were all spirits and monsters that inhabited the local realm.

Between these torsos, many figures are busy, and the blood containing true qi flows into the large urn with strange patterns, and on the other side, the large urn that has been sealed for enough time is opened, and the fingertips are dipped in thick dark red blood on the linen, and the linen cloth smeared with strange tracks is wrapped in thatch and turned into a charm, and is put into a cloth bag.

"Give me a little serious, if anyone doesn't do a good job, don't blame me for not reminding you - although human blood is not as good as beast blood, when ten drops are used, the effect is the same!"
