Chapter 139: The Granary and the Lifeblood

As the saying goes, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, in this case, Ling Xiao's response is beyond the expectations of the other party, and the other party only has two choices.

One is that regardless of it, the short sword stabbed forward with all his might, although it was blocked by Ling Xiao's left hand, but it was also very possible to stab into Ling Xiao's chest together with Ling Xiao's left hand and kill Ling Xiao, but in this way, the short sword assassinated Ling Xiao, and the short knife was blocked by Ling Xiao, and the drunken Taoist who followed from behind would be extremely easy to kill.

The second is to retreat with a short sword to block the attack of the drunken Taoist, and the short knife is to knock through Ling Xiao's short stick and organize a second kill.

This cultivated Night Scout took the second method without much thought, but he didn't think that the person on the other side was the ultimate target of the spear god in this war!

Just as Ling Xiao and the drunken Taoist underestimated this night scout, this night scout also underestimated Ling Xiao and the drunken Taoist, and it was quite a strict underestimation, in his opinion, the sneak attack was successful, although none of them were killed in an attack, but after all, there was a good start, as long as he worked harder to kill the delusional guy in front of him, the old man behind him would definitely be captured!

But for the drunken Taoist, at this moment, he is eager to eat the meat, the skin of the sleep, originally he has only one task, that is, to protect Ling Xiao's safety 100%, although this operation is a bit risky, but in the drunken Taoist want to come, under his own protection, there should be no accidents.

But in just an instant, this master who suddenly appeared had already killed Ling Xiao's eyes, and death seemed to be instantaneous.

Seeing that this night scout actually wanted to block his attack with just a short sword, while the drunken Daoist was angry, he increased the intensity of his attack!

Between the lightning and flint, the sword light in the drunken man's hand flashed, and it hit the opponent's short sword directly, and Haoran's spiritual power continued to gush out, and it actually suppressed the opponent's short sword and slashed directly on the opponent's body!

In simple terms. Due to the obstruction of the short sword in this person's hand, the sword of the drunken Taoist did not cut into this person's body, but this person still died, died under the oppressive attack of the drunken Taoist, it can be said that this person was squeezed to death by the huge spiritual power of the drunken Taoist!

Of course, Ling Xiao was finally out of danger, and at the same time, Ling Xiao began to look through the corpse, first, he wanted to find the magical short sword, which could not be damaged under the full blow of the drunken Taoist, and this short sword was really extraordinary.

The second is to determine the identity of this person. According to common sense, although the Night Scouts are elite, they can't be so elite!

The short sword was quickly found by Ling Xiao and unceremoniously accepted as an existing weapon, and he finally had a good weapon in melee combat. And the identity of this person was finally revealed when he found a token.

It was a swarthy metal token, I couldn't tell what kind of metal it was, but it looked exquisite, and in the rising flames, a guard character was engraved in it, and on the back was engraved a number seventy-three!

"Gun God Guards Battalion!" saw the token. The drunken Taoist seemed to understand something at once, "It's the guards directly under the Spear God, and all of them have the strength to surpass the Zun Realm, so I can't complain about it." ”

Hear the words of the drunken Taoist. Ling Xiao's heart suddenly moved, the Spear God Guard Battalion was the most mysterious army on the God of War Continent, originally according to the conventions of various countries, masters above the Zun Realm would never participate in secular battles. Whether it is a war or a family feud, the masters above the realm that are not directly related to each other have always been irrelevant, and they are hung high.

But this mysterious force that belongs directly to the spear god is different. They appear in almost every war waged by the Dreadnought Empire, taking on special operations such as assassination and espionage, and because of their high skills, they have never been captured by their opponents, so they have escaped the accusations of various countries.

Originally, it was normal for the Gun God Guards Battalion to appear in this war, but what was not normal was the timing of the appearance, and now it was just that the Dreadnought Imperial Army had just set up camp, which sent out the mysterious Guards Battalion, and things seemed to be a little wrong.

Some other items found on the corpse made Ling Xiao understand the other party's plan, fire oil, thousands of miles of fire, ropes! The other party wants to burn grain, grain and grass reserves as the most important baggage materials for a war, everyone knows its importance, after camping on the first night, go out of the guard battalion master with the tools to set fire, and its goal must be to burn food!

Ling Xiao silently considered, it seems that the Dreadnought Empire does not intend to drag into a long-term war, but wants to fight a decisive battle, and burning grain is one of the means. And when all countries are undecided, taking the border gate city in one fell swoop has become an established fact, even the negotiations will have the absolute upper hand.

It was only a moment of effort, Ling Xiao judged the enemy's intentions, and the situation was urgent, "Drunk senior, the enemy army must want to burn my grain and grass, and dispatched the guard battalion, this person's number is seventy-three, which means that the enemy army has at least gone out of nearly a hundred masters, to be honest, at present, the coalition forces can stop these people only drunk seniors, please go back to warn and stick to the granary!"

Drunken Daoist people are not confused people, but they have too little understanding of war, unlike Ling Xiao who has watched countless war movies and television works in his previous life, and has almost understood all unconventional methods of warfare. At this time, as soon as he heard Ling Xiao's explanation, the drunken Taoist also understood, "Okay, Brother Xiao, I understand, but what about you, won't you go back with me?"

"Drunken senior, I won't go back for the time being, I'll leave it to you, the enemy guard battalion is dispatched, and the strength of the masters left behind will inevitably be greatly reduced, it is the best opportunity for us to infiltrate, and if the enemy action is successful, we also need a little result to motivate the coalition forces!"

Hearing Ling Xiao's thoughts, the drunken Taoist was immediately anxious, "No, Ling Xiao, you have to understand that the key to this war is not in the border city, but in you, I came here, to put it bluntly, it is to ensure your safety, no matter what, you can't take risks personally!"

"Drunk seniors, there are many people who have other ideas, if the border gate city is lost, the countries will immediately deviate from Germany, and the shape will be out of control, so I must go and fight for the strategic balance of power!"

"Brother Xiao'er, I admit that what you said makes sense, but you go back to the base camp, I will go to the enemy's side, I want to cultivate to say, I still have to be a little higher than you!"

"Drunken seniors, it is precisely because of your high cultivation that you should go back to the granary of the border gate city to garrison, and only you can block the surprise attacks of those masters, and my advantage is long-range attacks, and it is more advantageous to go to the enemy camp! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Xiao didn't care whether the drunken Dao people agreed or not, so he turned around and galloped away, but his body had already disappeared into the boundless night in three breaths.

And the drunken Taoist had no choice but to lead the few remaining people to rush towards the border city!

Besides, Ling Xiao is actually very aware of the danger of this raid on the enemy camp, not to mention that it is almost impossible to achieve some results in the 200,000 army, but he is gambling, he is betting that since the Dreadnought Empire has thought of a sneak attack and burning grain strategy, then their own granary will not be set up on the front line, but will be a certain distance from the camp, the key to success or failure this time is one point, speed!

As long as you get to the enemy's baggage camp as quickly as possible, you may be able to toss some results with the advantage of long-range attacks.

No one understands how this particular night has evolved into the current state, on the side of the border city coalition army, the marking line plan can be said to be half of the success, but in a hurry, the action team dispatched ten people, but only three people came back, and as soon as the drunken Taoist came back, it brought even more shocking news, the enemy dispatched the guard battalion to burn food, fortunately, the coalition army reacted quickly, and the granary was garrisoned by the drunken Taoist, and there was no change for the time being.

It's just that Ling Xiao, who everyone in the coalition army cared about, did not come back, and of course, only Liu Wenyuan and Drunken Daoren knew that Ling Xiao actually went to the enemy camp.

And the Dreadnought Empire is a little depressed, originally a good night attack plan, but was forced to die, I heard that it was encountered by the scouts of the border city, but there is a scout of which army is so powerful, so far, it has cleaned up nearly thirty percent of the guards battalion masters, you must know how many masters in the entire God of War Continent are beyond the Zun Realm!

Despite the unfavorable situation, the command of the 200,000 troops of the Dreadnought Empire is still firmly confident, although the masters of the Guards Battalion have been reduced by thirty, but the remaining strength can be regarded as quite powerful, and they should be able to complete the task.

However, the situation evolved like this, and the Dreadnought Imperial Battalion still sent a warning signal in the direction of the baggage camp as usual, after all, he attacked the other party's granary, and he also had to guard against the other party's sneak attack on his own granary with a tooth for a tooth.

Of course, the signal was sent, but on the side of the Dreadnought Empire, from the Supreme Commander to the Baggage Battalion, they didn't think that those disadvantaged opponents in Border Pass City would have the ability to infiltrate their own rear to sneak attack the Baggage Battalion.

Ling Xiao was very tired, and ran along the military road for nearly a hundred miles before he found the location of the dreadnought's baggage camp in an extremely hidden place, and while sitting cross-legged to calm the consumption caused by the long-distance run, he carefully observed this baggage camp.

To tell the truth, the dreadnought Empire has placed the baggage camp here, which is definitely extremely safe, not only is it far enough away from the camp, but there is no hidden access to any side here, but any big movement will definitely be detected by the observation post.

Moreover, this baggage battalion was set up quite standardly, and the outer circle was a craftsman's battalion, scattered, but the important materials were tightly enclosed, and it was extremely obvious that the granaries were not concentrated, but distributed throughout the entire baggage camp, and there were as many as 12 places in detail.

The most perverted thing is that a baggage battalion has left a full wing of troops to watch over it, which is an establishment of nearly 10,000 people. Judging from the strength alone, just a baggage battalion can be compared to the border city. (To be continued......)
