Chapter 367: Heaven Sends Two Elders
Holding the human skin mask in his hand and looking at the person he didn't know in front of him, Su Qi'an basically figured it out.
This suicidal duo is his stand-in, and as for why he did it, look at the mad natives in front of him.
What is the identity of the two elders, the highest prestige among the natives, not only the leader, but also the spiritual belief.
Su Qi'an captured it, this stand-in, more precisely, the two elders had long expected the worst outcome.
It is estimated that he has already sent a message to the stand-in, and once he is caught, he will commit suicide immediately, and once he dies, it is enough to make the natives who are watching completely crazy.
After all, everyone saw with their own eyes that the two elders were captured by Su Qi'an, even if they committed suicide, it was forced to death by Su Qi'an.
After witnessing it with their own eyes, they don't need to agitate, these natives will kill Su Qi'an without fear of death.
Under this kind of emotion filled with anger and killing intent, the combat power of these natives has definitely increased exponentially, even if the combat strength of the Dongshan Army under them is not weak.
After all, in the era of cold weapons, those with a large number of people will still have an advantage after all, especially to ignite the emotions in their hearts.
Even if Su Qi'an escaped under cover, the first regiment and the cavalry regiment would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
This is the result that the two elders want to see, even if the natives are all wiped out, but they can cause a large number of casualties among Su Qi'an's soldiers, they will not lose this battle.
And then the most important thing is that after the war, when they wait for the corpses of the two elders to be buried in the old city, the real two elders will appear immediately.
After that, the so-called divine power resurrected him, not only deifying himself, but even taking it a step further.
As for the other half of the indigenous army, it is estimated that they are fighting fiercely with Chen Zhi and Song Biao.
He is here as a stand-in, which is to buy time for another group of besieging natives.
At that time, Su Qi'an's side suffered heavy casualties and had no choice but to retreat to the county seat, while another indigenous army might have taken the territory of the three priests.
With the strategy of stand-in, the combat effectiveness of the natives was stimulated, and a large number of casualties were inflicted on the Dongshan army, and on the other hand, time was gained to take the territory of the three priests.
It can really be described as killing two birds with one stone, the two elders really deserve to be old foxes, if it weren't for Su Qi'an discovering the stand-in problem, I'm afraid I really wouldn't have guessed this old fox's plan.
After guessing the plan of the two elders, he signaled his soldiers and threw the corpses of the two elders directly.
More precisely, it was thrown on the middle battlefield where the two sides were preparing for a fierce battle.
The corpse of the two elders was insulted, and the natives who rushed up were even more angry in their hearts, and they were just about to play with their lives, when a deep voice sounded.
"Keep your eyes open and take a good look, this is what you call a dual elder?"
The four priests, ignoring their injured bodies, stepped forward with the help of the people beside them, and their faces changed when their eyes swept over the corpse's face.
Although the corpse's face was stained with some mud, it did not prevent them from recognizing the appearance of the two elders.
This person is wearing the clothes of the two elders, and the figures are almost the same, but the only face is a middle-aged man, and he doesn't look like the two elders at all.
"What's going on?" The four of them had their eyes flashing, a little surprised.
Obviously, the two elders did not even inform his most loyal priests about the stand-in.
From beginning to end, I am afraid that only the two elders know.
The four priests had no doubt that Su Qi'an had done anything halfway, from the death of the two elders to the throwing of the corpse.
All of Su Qi'an's actions are basically under their noses, and the time between them is no more than half a stick of incense, in such a short time, it is impossible to do anything in front of countless people.
"The surname Su, what the hell is going on?"
"Where are the two elders, did you hide people? Hand over the two elders, and if we find out, you will be torn to pieces."
The four priests hurriedly asked questions, and the attacking native army stopped the attack under the obstruction of the four priests.
Although they really wanted to avenge the two elders, but now that they found out such things, they could be sure that the two elders were not dead, just no
Know where people are.
Since the two elders are not dead, the top priority is naturally to find the two elders, and as for killing Su Qi'an, it has to be put aside.
When questioned by the four, Su Qi'an just said lightly, "Hmph, where are your two elders, Ben Hou still wants to ask you."
"If Ben Hou had two elders in his hands, he would still talk such nonsense with you here?"
"As for what happened, as priests, don't you have a little brain? I didn't know I was being shot by your elders."
Su Qi'an said it very bluntly, and what he said made people feel heartbroken, although the four of them didn't want to admit it, but what was happening now had to make them think that Su Qi'an was right.
How could their two elders not have two brushes, and use stand-ins to make them crazy and wear down the strength of the Dongshan Army, which is indeed a bit cruel.
But if they were two elders, I'm afraid they would do the same, everything would take precedence over the interests of the Priest Alliance, and what would it be to die more natives, even if they were elite natives?
The four priests quickly figured it out, and they kept a distance of less than a zhang from Su Qi'an.
Although they knew that the two elders were not dead for the time being, it would not be easy for them to retreat at this time.
The two sides almost fell into a life-and-death battle just now, although the matter was clarified and the war was temporarily stopped, but the atmosphere in the air was tense.
At this time, if there is some abnormal movement, or one side suddenly makes a move, and the next thing is definitely a never-ending battle.
Compared with the nervous expressions of the four priests, Su Qi'an was much calmer, he glanced at the four priests, and said directly.
"Ben Hou doesn't have the energy to spend it with you now, Ben Hou will withdraw first, you can do it yourself, of course, if you want to do it, Ben Hou will definitely accompany you."
"Pass my orders, and the whole army will alternately cover the retreat."
After saying this, Su Qi'an didn't even look at the natives in front of him, and turned to leave.
Not worried at all, the opposite side suddenly launched an attack, Su Qi'an did this, he had his intentions.
This battle was originally for the two elders, but now that the two elders are not there, they are dead as a stand-in, and they are entangled with these indigenous armies, what's the point.
What Su Qi'an has to do now is to quickly reconnoiter the traces of the two elders, and it may be too late to do so now, with the shrewdness of the two elders, most of them have now converged with the high priest and the eight priests.
is chasing it, there is no play, rather than this, it can only be transferred quickly.
If he continued to dry up, once he waited for the high priest and the eight priests to join him, Su Qi'an wanted to leave, but he was afraid that he would not be able to go.
And when he left by himself, Su Qi'an expected that the other party would not dare to act.
In the previous battle, the strength of a regiment and a cavalry regiment had been fought, which gave these natives some shock.
If they do it, they must weigh it, and more importantly, there is another reason.
The two elders who had been with them were now gone, just a stand-in.
This made them feel as if they had lost their backbone, and they didn't know what to do next. ap.
Su Qi'an's decisive departure suddenly made the four priests a little overwhelmed and didn't know how to deal with it.
If you keep up, will you fall into Su Qi'an's ambush? is so decisive, without taking them into account at all, just with a few thousand people in his hands, it makes them feel incredible.
You must know that Su Qi'an's Dongshan army only has five or six thousand people, but now, part of the people on the side of the three priests who are besieged by the high priest and the eight priests are now part of it.
All of them add up, and it is roughly estimated that it is at least more than 10,000, which is twice as bad as what I learned.
And who can guarantee that these 10,000 people, and all the horses of Su Qi'an, if there is an ambush ahead, what should they do?
The eyes of the four of them flashed alternately, and finally reached a consensus, for the sake of safety, they did not plan to follow, issued the same order, and retreated alternately, waiting until the men of the high priest and the eight priests arrived.
To watch the withdrawal of the armies of both sides, the battle was declared over, and suddenly, in the darkness on the left, there was a sound of friction.
The sound was like something, being dragged to the ground.
This dull friction sound did not last long, as the footsteps stopped, and the next moment, a black shadow flew directly out of the dark mid-air.
The black shadow was tied up, and under the gaze of everyone, it smashed hard in front of the Dongshan army.
Looking at it, everyone was stunned.
This dark shadow is none other than a dual elder.
It's just that the two elders at this time look a little miserable, tied by ropes, with white hair scattered, a ball of cloth in his mouth, and some scars on his face and body.
Although it is not fatal, the pain is not something that ordinary people can bear.
The two elders turned pale, and when they looked at the four priests not far away, they had a sluggish expression on their faces just now, and they instantly became excited.
The body writhed, kept struggling, the mouth whimpered, and wanted to say something, but it was sifted with strips of cloth, and nothing could be said.
The sudden scene made everyone stunned, and after a while, in the darkness on the left, a figure covered in a black robe appeared.
It didn't say anything, its palm stretched out, motioning to remove the strip of cloth from its mouth.
The soldiers who were close to each other, under Su Yong's instructions, stepped forward and took off the cloth strip from the mouth of the two elders.
The moment he took it away, the angry voice of the two elders resounded in the air.
"What the hell are you doing, why don't you come and save me! Do you have breathing eyes?"
"A bunch of fools, I'm real, I'm not a stand-in, if you don't do it, I must remove the high priest from your position and be reduced to a slave to sin!"
It was this sentence that suddenly made the four priests who were stunned quickly come back to their senses.
This is the real two elders, ordinary people think that the two elders are their leaders, and the demotion is just a matter of his words, but they don't know that this right has long been delegated to the high priest by the two elders.
Only the eight priests knew about it, and the rest didn't know about it, even if they were stand-ins.
After making sure that the person in front of him was the real elder, the natives behind him wanted to step forward to rob someone, but a dagger was very precise against the neck of the elder.
"There's something to say, everything is negotiable, you fools, get out of here!"
The two elders hurriedly spoke.
Looking at this scene, Su Qi'an's heart was relieved, this was the two elders they knew.
