Chapter 194: The Enemy Appears
Something did happen.
When Tang Dou took the girls out of the tent with Zhengde, he found that the entire camp was in turmoil. This is not an ordinary battalion, it is a battalion of 200,000 troops, even if it is deliberately compressed, it stretches for hundreds of miles, and it is definitely not an ordinary simple situation to make the entire battalion riot at the same time.
You must know that in the absence of efficient means of communication, if there is a full-scale commotion in the battalion, it is called bombing the battalion, and the consequences can be big or small, as small as a false alarm, and it is not impossible for the entire army to be annihilated.
Sun Nansong's personal soldier Lu Yuanzhi ran over from a distance.
"Childe, Mr. Di!" Lu Yuanzhi saluted Tang Dou and Zhengde.
Zhengde's identity in the camp is kept secret, of course, the emperor's running to the army can't be shouted casually, and the entire army of people who know Zhengde's identity is Sun Nansong and Lu Yuanzhi.
"What's going on?" Nan ...... Where's the big handsome?" asked Zhengde.
"Hui Gongzi!" Although Lu Yuanzhi knew that Zhengde was unreliable, the identity of the emperor was there. He didn't have Tang Dou's mentality of not feeling when he saw the emperor, although he didn't kneel and knock directly because he wanted to keep it secret, but he still said extremely respectfully: "Suddenly there is a demon beast attack, and the marshal is commanding in front, but it shouldn't be a big problem, don't worry about it!"
Tang Dou frowned: "Captain Lu, you're not joking. How elite the Tianwu army is, it can make the entire battalion so commotion, and even the commander has to personally command it, will this be a trivial problem? Let's be honest. It's not a good thing to report good news and not bad news at this time!"
Zhengde was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Lu Yuanzhi's words, but he was broken by Tang Dou and immediately reacted: "Yes, what the eldest brother said is right." This is definitely not a trivial matter, quickly and honestly, there must be no half to hide!"
Lu Yuanzhi glanced at Tang Dou and smiled helplessly: "Go back to Gongzi, Mr. Di." It's really not a big problem, it's just a nuisance. We are being attacked by black-winged bees, and there are a lot of them. And they're flying all over the place, so it's hard to deal with! But the Black-winged Bee doesn't have a lot of attack power, so don't worry too much!"
"Black-winged bee, that shouldn't be a problem!" Zhengde breathed a sigh of relief.
The Black-winged Bee is a monster that is not considered a demon beast. Say they're monsters. It's because they do have the strength of an ordinary level. It is said that they are not demon beasts, because they have a gentle personality and rarely take the initiative to attack any targets, and even if they do, they are not fatal. Because the poison of the Black-winged Peak only has a paralyzing effect, it is not lethal, even if a person's whole body is crawled with black-winged bees, it is at most paralyzed for a period of time.
So encountering black-winged bees is indeed a trouble, but it must not be considered a disaster.
"Childe, Mr. Di, let me report it. After that, I will go to arrange the defense of other regions, and I have already called the personal army of the commander to guard the surroundings, which can ensure the safety of Gongzi, Mr. Di and all the girls!" Lu Yuanzhi is Sun Nansong's absolute confidant and deputy. Of course, it is impossible to stay by Tang Dou's side at this time, he has a lot to do - of course, this is also the reason why Sun Nansong believes that Tang Dou will not hurt Zhengde, otherwise he would not dare to put Zhengde by Tang Dou's side.
"Big brother, it seems that there is nothing to worry about, it's just some black-winged bees!" Zhengde saw that Tang Dou was still frowning, so he comforted.
"No, I always feel that there is something wrong with this matter, I seem to have ignored something, there must be something important that I have overlooked!" Tang Dou always felt that something important was circling in his mind. But I just couldn't grasp the key point for a while.
Bao said: "Boss, it's really a black-winged bee, I can smell their unique honey smell, it's so fragrant." I really want to take a bite! No, I'm drooling!"
Tang Dou's mind exploded, revealing a shocked look: "Damn, this is it." Black-winged bees don't attack people casually. What's more, even if they attack people, it is impossible for the entire camp to smell of black-winged honey. Bao. Does the whole camp smell of honey?"
"That's right!" Po also realized that something was wrong: "The boss is right, how can there be such a strong honey aroma when the black-winged bee attacks?"
"Is there any problem?" Zhengde still didn't understand.
"It is true that the black-winged bee is not dangerous, but the honey of the black-winged bee is extremely dangerous in the mountains and forests, and once this thing is mixed with the smoke of another star grass, it will become a fragrance that has a fatal attraction to demon beasts. How many demon beasts are there in the mountain?What do you say will happen if there is a beast tide rushing to the camp at this time?" Tang Dou looked at Zhengde with a calm face.
Zhengde's face turned pale all of a sudden.
How big is Niuqi Mountain? How many demon beasts are there in Niuqi Mountain? Even if Zhengde has never been out of the house, he knows such common sense.
Where the five demon beasts of the Jiuxiao Continent gather, there is a Niuqi Mountain. It is also said that Mt. Niuzu is also a place where alien species live, and it is rumored that strange things such as stone people, tree people, and water people appear here. Regardless of whether the rumors are reliable or not, Niuqi Mountain is definitely not a safe place.
The road taken by the Tianwu army now is a safe route taken by the army and caravans for many years, and there are not many demon beasts around, even if there are some small communities, they don't dare to make a mistake when they see the 200,000 army. But if it really causes a tide of beasts and makes the demon beasts in the deep mountains and old forests rush out, then not to mention the 200,000 army, even the 2 million army is not enough.
"I, we're going to tell Uncle Nan right away. Big brother, quick, take me to Uncle Nan!" Zhengde said with a pale face.
"Sun Dashuai is a wise man, what I can think of, he must be able to think of. Otherwise, a little black-winged bee, how could he go to the front camp in person? But this matter must have been done by those people, so no matter how we try to stop it, the beast tide will definitely happen. Now we should think about how the beast tide will be!" Tang Dou said in a deep voice.
Zhengde is still just a teenager in the end, and for the first time in his life, he walked out of the palace for the first time, and suddenly encountered such a thing, and he didn't know how to react at all, but with Tang Dou here, he had some courage: "Big, big brother, you, you say, what should I do?"
"First of all, let me ask you, can the thing you brought with you keep the army?" Tang Dou was referring to the Tianwu artifact brought out by this wonderful emperor.
"That thing can be, but with my current strength, I'll have to hang up once I use it!" Zhengde showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Even if I'm not afraid of death, I have to think about inheritance." I don't have an heir yet, I'm going to die, and this inheritance will be broken!"
Zhengde knew that Tang Dou had overheard the conversation between him and Sun Nansong before, and he trusted Tang Dou, so he didn't hide anything at all.
Tang Dou nodded: "Then it can't be used." So don't think about that either. Let's think of another way!" he looked down and thought for a moment. asked Sha Yunyue beside him, "How much poison did we have left over from the Sand Devouring Scorpion last time?"
"Not much, Brother Di, it's unlikely that you want to use poison to fight against the beast tide, but it should be able to play some role, I will use other medicinal herbs and sand phagophine to make some non-lethal but instantaneous toxins. Do you think it's appropriate?" said the elf beauty.
"No problem, but what I need is the type that can be ignited and turned into poisonous smoke, is there a problem? It's better to have an antidote at the same time, the wind in this mountain is uncertain, if it blows back, it will hurt you!" Tang Dou said.
"That's fine. I'll do it right away!" Sha Yunyue turned around and went back to the tent.
"White Moon. You go and help. Hongyue, you will fight in a while, don't make trouble!" Tang Dou looked at Zhu Yuehuo.
The silver-white eyes turned amber: "Master, I understand!"
At the critical moment, even Chihuo would not go against Tang Dou.
"Bao, guarding Xiangru and the tent, unless I still have Zhengde, anyone who dares to break in will be killed by me!" Tang Dou's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"Don't worry, boss, as long as I live. No one can hurt Xiangru and them!" Bao picked up Xiangru and returned to the tent.
Maybe it was Tang Dou's composure that affected Zhengde, he also calmed down, and his mind began to live: "Big brother, you don't think there are spies in the barracks, right?"
"I'm not sure about the spies, but there will be enemies. These honeys won't run into the camp on their own long legs!" Tang Dou said: "Let's go find the big handsome now!"
"Okay!" Zhengde nodded.
The two of them immediately walked out, but before they took ten steps, two soldiers dressed as pro-soldiers appeared: "Two, the commander has an order, don't move lightly!"
"When is this coming, I want to see the handsome right away! Hurry up!" Zhengde finally showed his majesty as an emperor at this time. There was a hint of imperial aura on his still immature face, and he stretched out his hand and held a piece of dragon jade plaque: "Look at this brand clearly, I order you to take me to Marshal Sun immediately!"
Tuanlong jade plate. The symbol of the emperor of Tianwu Kingdom, although this thing has the effect of "seeing the card like the emperor coming in person", but in the eight hundred years since the founding of Tianwu, this thing has never been taken out and used, because the emperors before Zhengde were very normal, not to mention all of them are wise and martial. At least he is a qualified emperor, and he has never had to take the jade card with him to someone to take him out to do a big thing.
So it can be said that the Tuanlong jade card will only appear in the hands of the emperor.
The two pro-soldiers were stunned for three full seconds when they saw the Tuanlong jade card, and finally reacted to who they were facing, and they were so frightened that they almost knelt down.
"Kneel down, get up for me, now immediately, take me to Marshal Sun immediately, or I will beat you to death!" Zhengde jumped to his feet in a hurry.
In the end, it was Sun Nansong's pro-soldier who was trained by him, and his psychological quality was excellent, and after the shock, the two pro-soldiers immediately roared, beckoned five pro-soldiers who came to other places to guard the tent, formed a temporary team, and ran to the front camp with Zhengde and Tang Dou (Tang Dou's tent was in the Chinese army, and Sun Nansong was in the front camp where the black-winged bee was the most serious).
The group was extremely fast, and soon found Sun Nansong, who was commanding the bee removal in the front camp.
"Why are you here?" Sun Nansong looked at Tang Dou and the two with a shocked expression.
"Nan...... Marshal Sun, what do you think about the matter of the black-winged bee?" Zhengde said excitedly.
"Opinion?" Sun Nansong looked at the expressions of the two, immediately understood, and smiled bitterly: "Have you already guessed it?" I think the beast tide is about to start. I have ordered the troops to prepare, but now the whole battalion is in disarray, and the order response is much slower!"
"What is the big boss going to do?" asked Zhengde.
"You can only defend to the death, once the beast tide really happens, escaping in the mountains and forests is a dead end. There is still a glimmer of hope in clinging!" Sun Nan said loosely, but immediately smiled bitterly: "But now ......"
The entire front battalion was in a mess, the left and right battalions, and the rear battalion were in slightly better condition, but they couldn't achieve a normal reaction speed. After all, no one can continue to execute orders efficiently when a large number of black-winged bees sting people.
"Give up the front battalion, the left and right armies retreat, and use the middle army and the rear camp as the key points to form a solid defense line!" Tang Dou said in a deep voice on the side.
Sun Nansong's face changed: "Give up the front camp? Do you know that there are 50,000 people in the front camp?"
"I only know that if you continue to grind, 200,000 people will die! And the front battalion is not completely abandoned, let them give up dealing with the black wings, concentrate on retreating, and if anyone is stunned, they will be carried by others. Don't forget the habits of the black-winged bees, their desire to attack is not strong, the more you resist, the more they attack, ignore them, they will not be able to sting 50,000 people. Tang Dou said: "You can do it yourself, I'm just here to talk to you." To be honest, it's good for me that you're dead!"
Sun Nansong and Zhengde both had stinky faces and were speechless at Tang Dou.
"Okay, what you say is reasonable!" Sun Nansong actually didn't understand, but he just got into the horns for a while. If this is really an enemy attack, in the same situation, he will abandon the front camp without saying a word. Ci is not in charge of the army, has no overall situation, does not have an iron-blooded heart, what kind of military god should he be? But the problem is that the current enemy is a group of black-winged bees, and let the elite Tianwu warriors fold on a group of bees, Sun Nansong feels aggrieved, so he has been hesitating.
But now that Tang Dou woke him up, he understood that if he didn't act, the 200,000 troops would have to pay for it.
"Order, the front battalion gave up resistance and fully retreated...... Sun Nansong quickly issued a new order.
At this time, it can be seen that Sun Nansong has prestige in the army, and their order is to give up some of the soldiers of the front battalion, but the soldiers of the front camp did not hesitate at all and immediately took action. Even a few petty officers such as hot-blooded centurions rushed directly to the place where the black-winged bees were the most, and began to take the initiative to be cannon fodder to attract the black-winged wings to attack them, so that the rest of the robes could retreat more easily.
The army quickly began to shrink, all the Tianwu warriors have received new orders, no matter those black-winged bees, desperately retreating, if anyone is stung by the black-winged bees, someone will immediately pick him up and run together, if the large group of black-winged bees encountered, everyone has not run out, then there is no way.
Marshal order, don't turn back, go back to defense at full speed!
In half an hour, the retreat of the army was finally completed, from a loose battalion, to a tight defensive line.
But nearly 5,000 soldiers were stung to the ground and fell on the way back, not dead, but paralyzed. But the commander has an order and can't save it.
The Tianwu warriors could only watch with red eyes, and even some of the fallen warriors were only a hundred steps away from the defense line.
Tianwu military discipline, it can be seen from this.
Sun Nan clenched his fists tightly and said nothing.
Thundered!
It was as if it had come at the invitation of the whole mountain and forest.
The beast tide is coming. (To be continued.) )
