Chapter 16: A Sharp Turn
readx; Listening to this, the old magician's originally serious face actually showed a smile, and he stretched out his hand and patted the dwarf: "I already understand, the only reason for the defeat is four words: the enemy is dark and I am clear." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Enemies hiding in the dark have attacked us at a time we didn't expect from places we didn't expect, in ways and classes that we are not familiar with, right?"
Amy's words flew like tongue twisters, and Horns thought for a moment with a slight frown, then nodded.
"Actually, I don't think there's a big deal about the so-called crab knights, such as attacking with fire, no crabs are not afraid of fire, right? I haven't seen a crab rider, but when I was on Xilin Island, the crab didn't eat less, although the crab has a lot of claws, it is quite powerful, but as long as there is a claw hanging on the net, the crab can't run. As for the Sea Otter Knight and the Sea Dragon Knight, they probably can't rush ashore at all, so we haven't seen them. Is this possible?" asked Amy, finger wrinkling.
"Yes!" Horns blushed slightly.
Dwarves, whether mountain dwarves or forest dwarves, are never willing to approach water and eat river seafood because they worship the gods of rishi and fire. Hey...... No one could have imagined that his nǎinǎi's dislike of eating river fresh food and seafood would make mistakes in the use of soldiers.
Regardless of whether or not the two methods mentioned by Amy are effective for crab riders, one thing is certain: any good commander must know astronomy, geography, and even omniscience.
In the early stage of the "5000 years of Jing Ling War", Zhuge Zhuge of the Grassland, who once sang about the empty city plan, is a clear example, and His Excellency Zhuge is a double great demon master who entered the fire system from the wind system. The allusion of the ancients who often said that "the new official took office with three fires" refers to Zhuge , in the face of the dark Jing Ling, the super king Cao Mengde, the fire burned Bowangpo, the fire burned Xinye, and the fire burned Chibi, and the three fires burned out the prestige of Zhuge for thousands of years.
This is a successful example of Zhuge being familiar with astronomy and geography.
is the same Zhuge and the same astronomy and geography, and there are times when success and failure are achieved. Zhuge set up three chain fire forbidden spells in the hinterland of the Langcang Mountain Range between the Grassland Jing Spirit Alliance and the Demon Jing Forest, in the hinterland of the Langcang Mountain Range, and the upper valley was covered with the direction of the Fire De Star Palace, and he was ready to burn Sima Yi's father and son and hundreds of thousands of Dark Jing Spirit Alliance troops alive in the upper valley.
Pity...... Although Zhuge knew astronomy and geography, he was not able to perfectly combine astronomy and geography.
The entrance to the valley above is narrow, the hinterland is wide, the two sides are high, and the middle is low, and once a fire breaks out in the valley, the air on the ground is rapidly heated and expands and rises, and there is a phenomenon of strong winds. A large amount of hot air rises at the bottom of the valley, and the water vapor in the air condenses into clouds due to the decrease in temperature, and a large amount of smoke and dust generated by the burning of firewood and grass rises to the sky with the air, which provides an ideal condensation nucleus for water vapor condensation, thereby accelerating the condensation of water vapor.
The small water droplets in these clouds collide and merge with each other, and the volume will gradually increase, eventually leading to a situation where heavy rain pours, extinguishing the fire in the upper valley, and Sima Yi and his son escaped.
Amy has read more than 10,000 books, so she naturally knows such allusions. Although Horns the Dwarf was also one of the strongest military commanders during the War of the Gods, Horns has always been flawed in terms of non-war direct factors, which no one can deny or ignore.
"I think the next step is to make a fuss about the enemy and the enemy. The only thing I'm worried about is Chi Aotian. Daqingshan and Horns looked at the serious old magician, the two of them had no idea what Amy was going to say.
Amy pulled out the news from the Thieves' Guild from her bosom, a copy of Amy's own magic. The eyes of the two men had just been half-swept, and their faces became more ugly.
"This ...... This ......," Horns said unneatly, "When did the news come about?"
"It's been a few days since it was passed to Tongyun Pass. I guess the news will come here in the next two or three days. This news was sent through the Thieves' Guild, and no one could block it. ”
"What should I do then?" Ji Aotian this guy ...... "There are not many people who can make Da Qingshan's face show worry, and Chi Aotian is the one who makes him the biggest."
Amy put one hand on Horns' shoulder, and the other hand on Daqingshan's shoulder, an old magician, a dwarf, and a young man, squatted on the ground and touched their heads, muttering quietly for a while.
"Is that okay?" Horns questioned first, the dwarves' integrity that made them never say anything to deal with.
Da Qingshan's face was also hesitant, and he would not be polite to Amy: "I also think this plan is a bit hanging." ”
"Then there's no problem!" the old magician patted the two partners on the shoulders, "You two think this matter is more hanging, then Ray Barton and General Merlin, as well as the commander of the Pirate Skeleton Legion that we have never met, will not believe that this kind of thing happens, so this matter has at least half a chance of success, I think it is worth trying!"
What kind of logic is this? Daqingshan and Horns looked at each other, and were just about to say their opinions again, when suddenly, there was a faint sound of drums in the distance! Then there was an even louder sound of horns!
"You're really a crow's mouth!" Horns praised Amy fiercely, and then squinted his eyes and looked hard in the direction of Moyada City, counting as he looked, "It's over! Four flags have been raised! I don't know who is moving so fast." ”
Lu'er, Lingbao'er, and two little boys ran over from a distance: "What's the matter, is there anyone in Moyada City who wants to rebel, how can I look at ......?"
"Then you go back and have a look? The old magician looked at Horns and Daqingshan with a smirk.
"Alas...... Well, this time it's a bit harder. Horns nodded emphatically, and Daqingshan rushed out of the woods to get on their horses and return to the city.
The barracks and the military yard of the school are both on the southeast side of the city of Moyada, and as soon as the drums are sounded and the trumpets are blown, the entire city of Moyada is in chaos! According to the regulations of the military headquarters on the reorganization of the army, the drums and trumpets of the generals are sounded, and all the soldiers must assemble at the military yard of the school, and if they do not reach one point, they will be beaten with 20 military sticks, if they are less than two o'clock, they will be beaten with 40 military sticks, and if they are not at three o'clock, they will be killed.
After a few years of chaos, the common people knew what was taboo, and the stalls were collected by Madeli, the door panels were hung by the hands and feet of the shops, and the cattle were hurriedly brought to the roadside.
The military mercenaries on duty on the streets of Moyada City hurriedly began to clean the streets! The sound of horses' hooves had already sounded from the city guard's mansion!
Chi Aotian didn't know what was going on, Horns was acting very strange just now, and he didn't understand what Amy was going to do, so he didn't tell a few other officers about Amy's return. As soon as he sat down to drink saliva in the conference hall, he heard the sound of trumpets and drums in the school military field, and Chi Aotian thought that Amy had made a surprise attack to check the situation of the various departments in the Northern Theater.
Listening to the sound of the horn, Chi Aotian rushed to the gate of the city, his brows were completely furrowed! What does Amy mean by this? Why did he only order the four main legions of the Huayu Plain Expeditionary Force?
When they arrived at the school military field, the faces of Chi Aotian and several senior officers behind him all changed!
On the military field of the school, the officers and soldiers of the four units of the Tongyunguan Light Knight Legion, the Dixing Dragon Heavy Knight Legion, the Desert Empire Camel Legion, and the Huayu Plain Allied Brigade kept running over from all directions with tens of thousands of war horses, Dixing Dragons, and camels...... In the middle of this bustling and chaotic crowd, there were three high-ranking officers, and in the middle was a young man in his 20s, who was none other than Qu Jianhong, the upstart Grand Duke of the Empire, who was now in charge of the battle situation on behalf of Chi Aotian in the southeast of Moyada City.
What pierced everyone's eyes was that Qu Jianhong and the other two senior officers at the level of the captain were wearing a white sè filial piety belt around their waists, holding a mourning stick in their hands, and even the mounts next to them were tied with white belts around their necks. In the cold, the eyes of the three iron-clad men were already swollen into a line.
These three officers are all retainers of the Chimen family without exception, and there are not many people who can let them bring heavy filial piety, and there is only one thing that makes them dare to directly order the generals to gather troops without going through the acting general of the Northern Theater. The knights of the Black Dragon Knights also realized what might happen, and looked at their commander blankly one by one.
Chi Aotian let the war horse trot to the school military field in a daze, and the black sè cloak somehow fell off the horse's back and fell to the ground, and his long black hair was blown up by the wind...... All the officers and soldiers of the expedition subconsciously made way for Chi Aotian.
Qu Jianhong and the other two officers looked at Chi Aotian, opened their mouths, opened their mouths again, and still couldn't say a word, and the pink liquid surged outward along the eyes of the youngest Grand Duke of the Empire...... The three high-ranking officers who commanded tens of thousands of troops fell to the ground in this way and wailed and cried, and finally couldn't cry!
For the Chimen retainers, the death of Chi Hanfeng and the death of Marshal Chi Datong are two completely different concepts, Chi Hanfeng is the youngest son, and only the eldest son of Chimen will grow up in Tongyunguan in order to inherit the family, and most of the younger sons live in Didu, and Chi Hanfeng's main military career is in several other war zones, so most of the retainers of Chimen are not very close to Chi Hanfeng.
Marshal Chi Datong is the head of the Chimen family, is the grandfather of Qu Jianhong and other young officers, these children will go to the Duke of Tongyunguan Mansion to meet the head of the family every New Year's Day, Chi Datong Xingge is recognized as straightforward and bold, treat the descendants of these retainers better than their own children, and should boast and talk about scolding, and will take the time to point out the children when they are fine. Of course, this is a means for the Chi family to win over the retainers, but as long as it is sincere, what if it is a means? People's hearts are made of flesh! The children of the retainers also treat the old man as if he were his own grandfather.
"What the hell is going on?" Chi Aotian slowly climbed down from the horse and stood in front of Qu Jianhong, motionless.
Qu Jianhong, the two current chief officers of the Tongyunguan Light Knight Legion and the Dixing Dragon Heavy Knight Legion burst into their mouths with tears streaming down their mouths, unable to speak at all.
Chi Aotian felt that his hands and feet were cold, in fact, there was no need for Qu Jianhong to say, he could guess some.
Previously, although Horns had been blocking the news from Chi Aotian, the rebellion of Prince Tiedu had already spread throughout the continent, and Marshal Chi Datong, as the chief rebel of Prince Tiedu's usurpation, was naturally the focus of attention.
Chi Aotian has heard a lot of rumors, for example, some people say that Prince Tiedu is actually Marshal Chi Datong's nephew; some people say that Marshal Chi Datong supports Tiedu to rebel because Prince Tiedu promised to make Tongyun Pass Duli the country after the war, and Marshal Chi Datong is the founding emperor of the Tongyun Empire; of course, some people say that Marshal Chi Datong has already died in battle, and the commander who is still in the forest is just a stand-in found by Prince Tiedu...... In short, people like Chi Aotian, who don't like to socialize and spend most of their time under semi-house arrest, have also heard more than 10 completely different versions of the romance.
Eventually, having heard too much, Chi Aotian was already immune to most of the news.
Chi Aotian couldn't guess at all, many rumors, in fact, ...... It was Horns who let people spread it, and there were two purposes, the first was to make Chi Aotian unable to distinguish between the true and the false, and the second purpose was the point: to make Chi Aotian somewhat mentally prepared. Horns knew that Chi Aotian had grown up in Didu since he was a child, and he was a cold-mouthed and hot-hearted person, for fear that the death of Marshal Chi Datong would cause too much irritation to Chi Aotian.
In the end, it was Qu Jianhong who struggled from his grief first, and grabbed Chi Aotian's arm, the young dragon phantom beast knight was extremely powerful, and the soldiers next to him could hear a burst of cracking sound from Chi Aotian's bones: "Second Shao, the head of the family...... The head of the house is in the Boundary Forest...... ...... in the Boundary Forest"
The youngest Grand Duke of the Empire fell to the ground with a grunt, tears drenching the ground.
At this moment, Horns and Da Qingshan rushed back, neither of them knew how to face Chi Aotian. However, the time to come still came.
"You ...... All...... Got it?" It doesn't seem like Chi Aotian said this at all, from the first time Daqingshan and Horns saw Chi Aotian, this young voice was cold from beginning to end, never with any emotion, let alone like now...... There was a tremor in his voice...... Everyone was surprised to find that there seemed to be a trace of black cold air in the air that kept converging towards Chi Aotian.
Horns licked his lips, not knowing how to answer. Da Qingshan also licked his lips, and finally nodded silently.
"Then why don't you tell me!?" Chi Aotian's eyes were instantly covered with red bloodshots, and he roared, grabbing the collar of Daqingshan's clothes with one hand and the collar of Horns's clothes with the other, and lifted the first deputy commander and the second deputy commander of the small mercenary group into the air.
"Let go, let go!" The fourth deputy head of the small mercenary regiment, Gelsu Hamburg, has been in poor health since the first battle, and with the help of a few grassland Jing Ling, he just came to the school military field and saw the scene in front of him, and forced his body to grab Chi Aotian's arm.
"What do you persuade him to do? Let's see how great the First Necromantic Knight of the Ages will be, and how long can he hold us up?"
When all the middle and high-ranking officers and mercenary group cadres in the Northern Theater heard such cold words, they were even more surprised than they were to see Chi Aotian's rude movements-these words actually came out of Da Qingshan's mouth!
Chi Aotian was also stunned.
At this time, what Chi Aotian saw in Da Qingshan's eyes was all indifference.
"The only reason you know the news, and the only reason that it didn't tell you, you should know too...... This is also the reason why Horns has replaced all the expeditionary force units from the northern front in the last two months. Da Qingshan continued to look at Chi Aotian coldly, and continued to say coldly: "Of course, don't think that Horns is replacing the army for you because of your desire to take revenge. Hum...... We are worried that you are nonsense, and that you and these Chimen disciples who don't know the general situation at all will not care about the overall situation and act arbitrarily, which will eventually lead to the collapse of the entire battle situation, so we did this. ”
"Now, number one, you put me and Horns down. Second, you can leave with your original team at any time, Elder Qingluo and Professor Benjamin can all go with you, and Ling Yun and Hu'er can also be sent to you again. Uncle Balbas, they will go with you. Don't come back in the future, this temple in the northern theater is small, and it can't accommodate the great god of the first necromantic dragon knight in the ages. Da Qingshan followed one sentence after another, and every word seemed to come from the deepest part of the 10,000-year-old ice of the Dragon's Tooth Mountain Range like him, violently stirring Chi Aotian's spinal cord.
Chi Aotian had never heard such sad, emotional, and unrighteous words in Da Qingshan's mouth, and there was a trace of hesitation fluttering in Hei Sè's pupils, and there was a little annoyance in it, and he casually threw Da Qingshan and Horns out.
Chi Aotian rushed to Daqingshan and Horns and arched their hands, without saying a word, turned over and got on the horse, and next to him, the knight officer of Tongyun Pass picked up the black sè cloak he had dropped on the ground and put it on him.
"Let's go!" Chi Aotian pulled the reins hard, and the black sè war horse neighed and left!
At this time, it was obvious that all the officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force had heard the conversation just now, and everyone had guessed what had happened, and the murderous aura, boundless murderous aura, rose up in the original team of the expeditionary force!
