Chapter 446: Plan Ahead
Lu Ming looked at the egg-sized purple red sword magic bead in his palm, and deeply felt the powerful power contained in it, but even if it was washed away with the powerful sword marks now, it would be very time-consuming.
Moreover, the food they brought with them was only three days, and the journey back to the mainland was still very long, so this food could not solve any problems at all.
Therefore, these people can only repair here for two days at most, and in these two days, they must fully recover from their injuries, eat and drink enough, and accumulate everyone's combat power to the strongest moment.
After all, it was a real peak sword saint, and even an existence that had already stepped towards the sword venerable, although no one said anything about it, everyone felt a lot of pressure.
It was a little bird, facing a dragon-like difference.
Lu Ming walked to the sword students, checked their injuries, and was relieved at the moment, with their mature cooperation, the injuries they received were much lighter than before, but Lu Ming asked them not to have any scruples, use the best healing pills, and eat all the most nutritious things.
The swordsmen have an almost instinctive trust in the swordsman, and their words to him have always been carried out directly.
Liu Yun chewed the beef jerky that was already small in his hand, and reached out and handed it to Lu Ming. Lu Ming shook his head and said indifferently: "I have already eaten it." ”
Liu Yun smiled bitterly and said, "Sword Master, you don't have to think about us at all, just let it go, although we only have fifty people, even if it is a sword master, he will kill for a while." ”
Looking at Liu Yun, who was full of confidence and determination, Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder. Said: "Don't think nonsense, what you have to do now is to cultivate your mental and physical strength and restore your true qi." When the time comes, you will use all your strength to feed. ”
Liu Yun nodded heavily and said, "Sword Master, don't worry, we will definitely teach those vicious rebels a hard lesson." ”
"What kind of lesson, you just run for me with all your might. Lu Ming patted Liu Yun on the shoulder and walked over to the fat three, leaving only Liu Yun with a shocked face. Still thinking about running away. This question of what to do with the swordsmith.
The fat man naturally heard the conversation between Lu Ming and Liu Yun, and looked at Lu Ming's not strong figure, but he only felt that the burden on his brother was simply too heavy. His responsibility. It can even be compared to the mountains.
The fat man froze. Said: "The forage here is not suitable for war horses to eat, but the toxins contained in it can intensify the explosive power of war horses, but they may only support three days at most before they become poisonous." ”
Lu Ming knew that this was a serious problem. When people can't fly, no matter how fast they run, they can't run as fast as a well-trained war horse, and running fast is very consuming of true qi, which can be said to be the biggest drawback in battle.
But......
Lu Ming smiled slightly and said, "War horses only need to last for two days, but there are thousands of war horses outside for us to use." ”
"Swordsman, someone has come in. A female swordsman in charge of the guard shouted.
Lu Ming looked over and saw that on a hill thousands of kilometers away, three knights sneakily showed their heads and looked at him.
Lu Ming smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about them, no one dares to come in now." ”
The female swordsman frowned slightly, looked at the three knights, and sure enough, saw their necks shrink, and then ran out of the wasteland frantically. The female swordsman glanced back at the corpses of the sword demons all over the ground, as well as the sword demon lord on a hill who was cut out in two pieces by the sword master with a sword, and was immediately relieved.
"They even killed the Sword Demon Lord?"
Bal Hu's brows were tightly locked on the outskirts of the wasteland listening to the reports of his subordinates, he knew too well the strength of this sword demon lord, he had sent ten great sword masters to hunt for her sword demon beads, but he returned in vain, but six of them were left with lifelong disabilities, and one died soon after he came out.
O Great Sword Master!
Although he was already standing at the high-end position of the peak of the Sword Saint, Bal Hu still let out a long sigh of distress, how many great sword masters were there in the entire grassland? It was thirty years, and it was only a dozen!
Although Zoligetu is only the adopted son of Bale, and has no real blood relationship, his existence, like a lonely wolf cub, can be established at any time after he grows up.
Besides, he is not a lonely young wolf, he also has Lu Ming's brothers by his side, these people are all for the sake of brothers, who can ignore everything, and it is very difficult to deal with.
If they all grow up, then their position as the overlord of the grassland will be seriously threatened.
Although the fat man has no desire to compete for hegemony, there is a saying in the mainland that is called? By the way, take precautions!
I must kill that fat man now to save me all worries. Of course, Lu Ming's three people are also bound to die, who will let them take care of my business? That gold mine can only be mine.
The dead Erdun could no longer know that he was just a pawn in the hands of the Balhu, and all he had to do was to push the situation in the steppe one step forward.
His life and death don't matter to Bal Tiger at all, women are like clothes, a steppe overlord, how many women do you want?
It's just that if Erdun had killed these boys and then died, then things would have been much more perfect.
Balhu silently looked at the Demon Wasteland, suddenly smiled, and he said secretly: "Even if they hide inside, even if my subordinates can't take them, but what? They don't have enough food, no water source, even if the war horses stay in it for a long time, they will be poisoned to death, they just want to eat the war horses to survive." And I, I only need to put the army here and block a few important entrances and exits, then they still have a way to live?"
"Someone, go back and send me 3,000 troops to come over and surround this place for me. Order the 2,000 patrol soldiers outside the Saiwai to give me a firm check on the border line, and as long as you find someone from the Sword Hall entering the grassland, report to me immediately, go!"
Balhu issued one order after another, and finally he waved his hand: "Set up camp!"
Lu Ming not only let the swordsmen station their tents, but even lit a bonfire, with a large cauldron on the fire, which was full of food, although it was just beef powder, but in this way, it could replenish the physical strength of each swordsman to the greatest extent.
Hearing his subordinates constantly transmitting information from the wasteland, Balhu suddenly had a thought, "Do they not want to live such extravagance and waste?" Or do they know that they will die and enjoy the last bit of joy before they die?"
Balhu pondered this question from all sides, calculating the time, and it had been two days, and they had no intention of escaping at all, but the warriors who were always waiting for it showed tiredness, and it was not possible to go on like this.
Balhu yawned, reached out and took the wet towel handed over by the camp maid, and couldn't help but wipe his face and refresh himself.
Although these two days can be insignificant for a Sword Saint, but since the Sword Saint of Destruction was promoted to a half-step Sword Venerable, Bal Hu has not had a good night's sleep in order to entangle the Sword Saint of Destruction, and now that the situation is under control, he has some irrepressible fatigue.
The order was given, and the warriors were divided into three groups and took turns to surround them. ”
Balhu's order made the eyes of many veteran soldiers light up, and those recruits kept vigil with a grudge on their faces, and even if the veterans did not come to change the guard when the time came, they did not dare to complain.
Bal Hu pulled the two maids who accompanied the camp, and his sturdy body directly submerged the two maids with very plump faces and figures.
It was late at night.
A crescent moon in the sky shyly hid behind a few pale clouds, throwing down the looming light, and the occasional wolf howl came from the grassland, which briefly broke the silence of the night, and then fell silent.
The steppe warriors had long been accustomed to hearing wolf howls, and even in the windless weather, when a wisp of grass caressed their faces, they only reached out and rubbed the itch, clicked their mouths twice, and continued to sleep.
The grassland recruits did not guess wrong, those veterans did not come to change the guard as a matter of course, the recruits did not dare to complain, and also felt that since there was the Great Khan of the Sword Saint Realm personally in charge, and nearly 5,000 soldiers were stationed nearby, compared to the more than fifty people in Zhuoli Getu, it was simply a vast ocean, even if they dared to come out, it would definitely not be able to set off any waves, at most it was just a few bubbles that could be broken by the waves at any time.
Besides, there is moonlight tonight, and when there is light, will they dare to come out with more than fifty people?
The soldiers on duty at night slept very comfortably and comfortably, even if a few soldiers who occasionally woke up had their neck bones crushed, they were just grinding their teeth on war horses.
In the hazy moonlight, a group of men in black crept through the crowd of warriors, these people did not have horses. A thin figure walked in the crowd, and a faint white light flashed on his body, and it could be seen that every person in black was enveloped in it, without making a sound.
Lu Ming used the sword marks, and he had already started with all his strength, so he barely gave everyone a sword mark power, shielding their breath.
At this time, a chubby figure appeared next to the horse team, and in the moonlight, he could faintly see his hands measuring something, and the war horses followed him silently.
The fat man's huge body crept along, with an indescribable comicality, but there was a hint of essence in those very small eyes.
Lu Ming glanced at the direction of the fat man, and saw that he had indeed stolen the war horse with a secret method, so he smiled slightly and continued to walk forward. The war horse really can't hold on, and at this moment it has become food for everyone's hunger, which can be regarded as the last loyalty to the master. Lu Ming thought helplessly.
