Chapter 536: Arson
North of Great Qin, Yancheng.
The soldiers are reinforcing the city wall, and after the experience of the last war against the orcs, Ye Feng has made many adjustments to the city defense facilities, and now it has begun to take shape.
The top of the front of the city wall is arranged with maces, which have the function of lifting and falling, and the iron spikes on it are more than a foot long, which can effectively prevent the orcs from climbing the wall; the bed crossbow can be fired in a row after improvement, and there are three more blood grooves on the head of the crossbow gun, which can also be used to quench poison while enhancing the lethality; a medium-sized stone throwing machine is arranged every few tens of meters on the city wall, and the stone bullets thrown weigh 120 catties and have a range of 600 meters, and the function is to destroy the phalanx composed of a large number of orcs.
Behind the city wall, several large stone throwing machines were also arranged, with stone projectiles weighing 400 catties and a range of 800 meters, which were used to deal with the enemy's large siege equipment.
Looking at the hot scene, Ye Feng was very relieved and said, "If the orcs dare to invade my city again, they will definitely let them come and go." ”
Ying Qi stood behind him, nodded and said, "Definitely." ”
He turned around and asked, "Is there any news from Yun Yang?"
"Yes. Ying Qi replied: "The Great Han is transferring all kinds of supplies, and it is said that he has discovered the hiding place of the orcs, and because of their large number, he intends to attack them with fire." ”
Ye Feng smiled indifferently: "Since it is the method that Yun Yang came up with, then there must be no problem, let our people not be idle, as long as they can help, they must contribute." ”
"Rest assured, uncle, they've always done it. Ying Qi turned his head to look at the southeast and said, "According to the time calculation, there should be a result over there." ”
The capital of Daqin, the imperial palace.
Wearing a wide nightgown, Ying Luobin walked out of the dormitory with weak steps, with red lip prints on his face.
Even if he has the level of a martial artist in the Gathering God Realm, he can't stand the song every day, if he hadn't eaten tonic as a meal every day, his body would have collapsed long ago.
He yawned and sat down as he asked Shi Zi, "When will I hear the news of the fall of the Ghost Mask Legion?"
Shi Zi took off his mask and said with deep meaning: "It's soon, after a while, the beast army will be ready, and by that time, what is the more than one million ghost face legions, they only need one charge, and they will have no power to fight back." ”
Ying Luobin raised his head: "But I didn't see the so-called army, but I just heard that you orcs are doing anything in the capital, could it be that they will form an army in the future?"
Shi Zi shook his head: "Of course not, those guys who are all too successful and more than defeated, unreliable! The army I am talking about is the real male master, let me tell you the truth, because of the difference in the distance between the north and the south, there is a difference in the time covered by the demonic qi, so the process of demonization is also sequential, and I and the previous wolf knight and elephant man are in the south, so they are the first to complete the transformation." Most of the orcs are still in the process of transformation, we have chosen an absolutely safe place, the four major races will complete the transformation in a few days, to that is the formation of an army of 250,000, the lowest level of orcs is the Ming Realm, the highest is the Bright Sky Realm, there are tens of thousands of masters in the Bright Sky Realm alone, and the Ghost Face Legion is not an opponent at all. ”
Win Luo Bin was overjoyed: "That's great! If it's really as Lord Shi said, don't say it's the Ghost Face Army, the big men are not our opponents." ”
Shi Zi said proudly: "That's right, at that time, we can sweep through the Holy Heaven Continent, and all those who do not submit and surrender will be killed." ”
Win Luobin's eyes lit up with excitement, and he asked again: "Where is the transformation field of the four major races, and is it safe?"
"Absolutely safe. Shi Zi said confidently, and said: "I can't tell you the specific location, the approximate location...... In the hinterland of the Great Han, right under their noses. ”
"Huh?" Yingluo's eyes widened, taken aback.
Shi Zi smiled, waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, the most dangerous place is the safest, the Han people just want to break their heads, and they can't imagine that the four major orc races will complete the transformation under their feet, and when tens of thousands of troops are born, they will definitely be dumbfounded, hahaha!"
At the same time, there was also a person who let out the same hearty laugh.
"Hahaha!" Ye Yunyang waved his hand and ordered in a loud voice: "Set fire!"
After three days of non-stop transportation, 600,000 truckloads of flammable materials were all in place, and 300,000 soldiers were tired like dogs, but when they heard the order to set fire, they instantly became alive.
In the depths of the ancient ruins, several soldiers were on standby, and the leader had a walk-around in his ear, and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Wu Yinghou has given the order, and the brothers will light the fire." ”
Several people showed the fire fold at the same time, and threw it directly on the pyre after the flames were raised.
There are not only firewood, but also oil and sulfur on the pyre, and in the middle of the pyre, there are poisons that can produce poisonous smoke after burning.
Call!
Flames began to rise, and several people retreated along the established route.
As they passed another pyre, the two men nodded to each other, and the other joined the retreating group after throwing the flaming fire folds.
The same scene was staged in different locations, and people far away from the entrance and exit lit the fire first, and gradually pushed closer.
At the entrance, the soldiers who had safely withdrawn loudly reported the number of the group, and there was a special person to keep the count.
In the sky, more than a dozen flying wings shuttled through the air, and as soon as they found smoke coming out of the ground, they immediately notified the people below, who waved shovels, buried the vents with bricks and stones, and planted red flags as signs.
Three hours later, the person in charge of statistics reported: "Wu Yinggong, the ignition team has all withdrawn. ”
A thick smoke came out of the entrance, choking everyone to treat coughing, plus tears and snot flowing, Ye Yunyang was very satisfied with this, and said with a smile: "Block the exit, don't let the slightest smoke come out!"
The soldiers put on their masks and began to work.
The stones had been prepared and sequenced, and in no time the forty-meter-wide entrance was blocked, and the craftsmen sealed the cracks with wet mud.
Ye Yunyang asked into the intercom, "What is the situation above?"
Liu Yuying, who was in charge of the air mission, replied: "Sixty-four vents have been discovered, and all but a few locations are still being rushed, and all the others have been blocked. ”
"Okay, keep observing, I guess there will be more hidden vents that have not been discovered, or have been temporarily excavated by orcs, so we must find and respond in time. He confessed.
Liu Yuying nodded: "Don't worry, I promise to complete the task." ”
Ye Yunyang changed the intercom: "Senior brother, how are you preparing over there?"
In the center of the ground of the ancient ruins, dozens of medium-sized flying wings were parked, and the Han master group led by Wu Qinglin was tasked with eliminating the escaped orcs.
Wu Qinglin said confidently: "Junior brother, don't worry, we are ready, as long as the orcs appear, we will pounce on them as soon as possible and destroy them all." ”
In addition to the master regiment, there are also 600,000 troops surrounding this area to ensure that no fish are let go.
Ye Yunyang was completely relieved and walked to the tent next to him.
In the tent, the crown prince Liu Rong was drinking tea and beckoned him to sit down and drink together.
"I said His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you are too leisurely, Your Majesty sent you over to supervise the army, you are good, you know that you are sitting here drinking tea! You are not involved in such a big thing as ordering arson, it is a bit unreasonable, right?" he said dissatisfied.
The prince shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "My son-in-law came forward, and I, who is a father-in-law, am very relieved." Anyway, when will you marry Makima, I'm a little anxious to wait. ”
Ye Yunyang smiled bitterly: "Which pot is not opened, which pot is not opened, is it interesting? If you think it is boring to stay here, please go back to the palace, Your Majesty, I will tell him on His Majesty's side, and ensure that you are not scolded." ”
Liu Rong jumped up directly: "Say it earlier, I don't want to stay where this kind of bird doesn't, bye!"
With that, he walked away.
Ye Yunyang shook his head helplessly, his future father-in-law has a problem, he likes to deal with national affairs, but he is very reluctant to go out of the palace to do things, such as this time.
How can such a homely father raise a daughter with such a big heart, the last thing Liu Yuying wants to do is to stay in the palace every day, and her daughter is in stark contrast to her father.
He walked to another tent, where a dozen people were seated, all of them with the rank of captain, each with a walkie in their ears.
"How's it going?" he asked.
The captain stood up and said, "Everything is normal. ”
He raised his eyebrows, and said suspiciously: "How can everything be normal, and the orcs don't have any reaction?"
When he went to the ancient ruins to transport incendiary materials, he had hundreds of intercoms placed in different areas in order to keep track of the movements of the orcs and the burning of the fire.
The lieutenant shook his head: "So far, there has been no response, three of them heard footsteps, and one heard a sound similar to a cow's bark, but both voices seemed very calm, not like the wails made before death." ”
Orcs' eyes are different from those of humans and other creatures, they don't need light to see what is in front of them, and the rising flames make it difficult for them to draw their attention.
Ye Yunyang nodded: "I know, it should be that the fire has just burned, the oxygen has not been consumed, and the smoke has not yet spread, you continue to listen, and notify me in time if there is a situation." ”
"Yes. ”
He stepped out of the tent and glanced into the sky, where the wings responsible for air vigilance shuttled back and forth, and found a lot of smoke during this time.
All the vents were hidden and ingenious, and if it weren't for the smoke coming out of them, the eyes would have gone unnoticed by at least two-thirds of them.
And so, twenty-four hours passed.
Every time the listening team came to report, they said that the sound of the fire was normal, and the sound of wood explosion could be heard, and the snorting sound of burning oil and sulfur could be heard, but the orcs barely made a sound.
Liu Yuying jumped off the wings, and the second group then took off.
She shuffled into the tent with heavy steps, threw herself into his arms, and said, "I'm tired, I've been watching the air all day, I need to get some rest." ”
"Don't worry, tell me how many vents have been found?" Ye Yunyang asked in a low voice.
Her eyelids were already fighting, and she said in a whispering tone: "One hundred and sixty-five, it is estimated that there are, they should all be insignificant small vents, give them to the second group, they are the new force, and they should gain something......"
Before she could finish speaking, she was already asleep.
Ye Yunyang gently picked her up, put her on the marching bed, and covered her with a quilt.
