Chapter 436: The Rhythm of Madness!(5,000 words)

It can become a natural danger that separates the middle of the two defense areas, this mountain range is naturally vast and towering! This kind of environment will help Tang En and them break through the barbarian defense line outside the level, but the time required is naturally extremely long.

Well, when Tang En led the people to continue drilling the ravine for several days in a row, we first shifted our eyes to the east, all the way to the defense area of the Cangyan Legion......

The battle situation here was still as tepid as before, due to the opinion of a certain supreme commander of the barbarian army. Judging from the distance of advancement, this place is also far inferior to the results of the barbarians on the side of the Thunder Legion. But the generals of the Cangyan Legion, who knew the inside story, would not think so, they looked at the advance route of the barbarians on the map of the defense area, their faces were tangled, and they shook their heads speechlessly......

It's so stable, it's so stable, it's so stable, it's so steady that it's desperate!

On the map, the armies of the barbarians occupy various important places, almost forming a horizontal line. Attack, then the dark thunder is silent, go hand in hand! Defend, then they are connected with each other, impregnable!

I don't care about the results of the battle, and I don't care about the speed of the march. Choose a target and take it gently. Short buffer, fully digest the results, and leave no flaws. This kind of attack is of course extremely slow in terms of the speed of advancement. But if the situation changes, with this solid rear, it will never turn into a major rout.

For example, the barbarian army here is like a towering ancient tree, and it is difficult to see its growth on the surface, but the root system below has been firmly rooted in the depths of the earth's heart, spreading endlessly......

......

Three days later, at noon.

In the middle of many barbarian branch armies, a large group of barbarians here managed to occupy a small town.

The city gate did not collapse, but the northern wall was forced to open a gap. No doubt. It was from here that the barbarians officially entered the town. The walls were littered with corpses of various shapes. There are barbarians. More of them were Bran soldiers in standard armor.

There was a little black smoke rising from all over the place, and there was an occasional howl and groan, and the battle was now completely coming to an end. The barbarians from the north had opened the gates from the inside to meet the large army behind. Outside the towns in the south, the few remnants of Bran were looking at the towns behind them that no longer belonged to them, bowing their heads and leaving in grief.

At this time, outside the gate of the city on the north side. About a few dozen blood-stained barbarians formed a circle, driving away something. The so-called town. Naturally, there are civilians, and it is true that this is a precarious battlefield, but there are always some civilians who will stay for various reasons. Or they don't want to die in a foreign land when they are old, or they have relatives who are soldiers in the city defense and are reluctant to leave because they are worried......

Now surrounded by barbarians are about a few hundred civilians who have been driven out of the city. Most of the old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as some young and middle-aged people, clutched farm tools such as sickles and iron forks tightly in their hands, their faces frightened, and they kept retreating to protect their relatives behind them.

Bran's side of the Propaganda Department and other departments for the work of the blackened barbarians. It's still well done. Therefore, in the hearts of ordinary civilians, barbarians are usually violent and ignorant and savage. Eating people and drinking blood and other vocabulary behaviors are linked. Such a description can certainly make the common people angry and despise the barbarians at ordinary times. But when you really face it, you will also magnify the fear in your heart because of these exaggerated words and behaviors.

Farm tools, naturally, are unlikely to hurt the barbarians. But now these hundreds of civilians can only rely on this thing to comfort them, so that they can barely maintain the fear in their hearts and not collapse on the spot.

Of course, the barbarians on the periphery naturally didn't care about this, they looked at these toy-like things with a playful expression, and grinned. However, it is not that the rumors are wrong, or because they have other plans, these barbarians did not go on a killing spree, let alone do such things as eating people on the spot. At most, he suddenly made a hideous expression, licked the blood on the side of his mouth, and intimidated these weak opponents in front of him to put down their farm tools.

At this moment, Da Da ......

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and among the barbarians leading to the city gate, dozens of war horses appeared walking slowly. The first one was an old man with an indifferent expression, with frosty white temples and a large-leaf dragon scale armor.

Those barbarians who gathered around the civilians just collided, and they didn't dare to slack off, and saluted in unison: "An Shuai!"

The old man known as An Shuai glanced over, nodded slightly, then glanced at the hundreds of civilians who were driven away, paused for a moment, and then said calmly in standard Bran words: "Ten seconds! Put down your things in ten seconds, you can not die." ”

When the words fell, he withdrew his gaze, no longer looked at these Bran civilians who were looking at each other, pulled the reins, and rode his horse into the city.

At this time, a middle-aged barbarian officer behind him seemed to have received some news, and approached slightly: "An Shuai, the town has been completely occupied." About 500 Bran soldiers fled from the south gate, and they came from the front to ask if they wanted to pursue and annihilate them?"

"No, I don't. In the messy passage of the city gate, An Shuai echoed faintly, "What we need to do now is to consolidate the town's defenses, well, let's let the hundreds of Brans just now repair the northern wall fortifications." ”

The words fell, the bell bell...... Behind him, there was a chaotic sound of metal falling to the ground, and it was clear that the gathered Bran civilians had finally chosen to throw their farming tools on the ground.

"Yes. Without turning to look, the middle-aged barbarian was not surprised at all, and nodded in response.

"Oh, yes. An Shuai seemed to remember something, turned his head and asked, "How is Tiwu over there, has there been any news from Yuan Fang?" As mentioned earlier, the reason why he let Tiu lead the army alone is of course because of Tiwu's identity, but the most important thing is because Yuan Fang, a steady veteran, also passed over.

"Yes, I just got the news yesterday. The middle-aged barbarian's face was a little strange when he heard this, and he touched his chin, "The reason why I didn't tell the marshal immediately is because ...... Well, they are now on the periphery of the Zichen Legion's defense area, and they have pulled out about twenty military strongholds. ”

"Still in the Zichen Legion Defense Zone?" An Shuai frowned, "Didn't they already arrive there a week ago, and Weishenme hasn't evacuated yet?"

"Well, I heard it's because Thiu is unwilling......"

"Bastard!" An Shuai's face sank, and the surrounding environment was quieter, which was the unique power of a veteran of a hundred battles, "Who does he think he is?

Seeing this, the middle-aged barbarian officer immediately bowed: "An Shuai is angry." ”

"Humph!" snorted coldly. An Shuai still had a gloomy face. The aftermath of anger has not subsided. "Ignorant and arrogant, I think it's because he hasn't learned a lesson!"

After a pause, he exhaled a deep breath, An Shuai squinted his eyes and waved his hand, "Pass the order, let the leftmost army approach the Zichen Legion defense area as quickly as possible and launch a tentative attack." Hmph, this bastard thing. Don't you think that with that killer weapon in your hand, you can be arrogant......? The empress too, I have to let this bastard boy come with me, it's really ......"

At this point, he wanted to stop talking, but the angry expression on his face undoubtedly said something.

The middle-aged barbarian was frightened when he heard this, he was not An Shuai, so he naturally didn't dare to have any disrespect for the empress, so he quickly changed the topic: "Actually, Tiu has already suffered a loss before. ”

"En?" An Shuai raised his eyebrows, his angry expression subsided a little, and he turned his head in surprise. "What happened?"

Including An Shuai, everyone knows it in their hearts. Although Tiu acted insanely, it gave people a very unsafe feeling. But since the army went out, whether it was under An Shuai or led the army alone, it has not tasted defeat, which is also an indisputable fact. It is because of this that An Shuai and others are more and more eager to teach him a lesson, knowing that war is a matter of life and death, and it is not a child's play.

After hesitating, his expression seemed to be a little distressed, and the middle-aged barbarian officer spread his hands and said: "The news came from Yuan Fang, yes, but this thing sounds quite incredible, and I haven't figured it out yet, so I haven't reported it to the marshal immediately......"

"Well, here's the thing. When they were heading to the Zichen Legion defense area, they passed through the wilderness and encountered some strange places, there were more than 100 corpses of our soldiers on several mountain roads, and they had not died for a long time, so they speculated that there should be an elite team of about 1,000 people in front of them. Well, at that time, Tiu was proposing a plan to attack all the strongholds in the wilderness, so I guess this elite team should have happened to go out on patrol, and then the back road was blocked and couldn't go back. ”

Seeing this, Tiu didn't pay much attention to it, so they sent a team to encircle and suppress it. However, these two strangulations ended in failure, and the latter one was pulled out of the sentry by the other party and broke out directly. Immediately, the other party killed more than 100 people on our side again not far from the rear of the Tiu army, as if provoking...... Tiu could not bear this humiliation, so he stopped his army on the spur of the moment and sent tens of thousands of soldiers to surround the rear for more than 100 miles overnight. ”

"Suspend the march, tens of thousands of people surround more than a thousand soldiers? The corners of An Shuai's mouth twitched a few times, and he did not hide the mockery in his words.

The middle-aged barbarian looked even more strange when he heard this, and lowered his head slightly and continued: "The problem is here, tens of thousands of people, and even later sent all the soldiers, it took a day and two nights, but they still couldn't find out the other party......" Looking up at An Shuai, he frowned again, and opened his mouth to speak, the middle-aged barbarian seemed to know what he was thinking, took a deep breath, and continued, "It is certain that the other party is in this encirclement." Because on the way to search, the other party struck again and quickly killed more than 100 people on our side, and then climbed the surrounding peaks. Then, in full view of everyone, when the soldiers gathered from our side rushed to the top of the mountain, the other party disappeared again as if it had never appeared......"

He opened his mouth and closed speechlessly. The previous angry look on An Shuai's face disappeared, and he was replaced by a frown and thought, falling into deep doubt. The same is true of the middle-aged barbarian, even deeper, he has been thinking about it for a long time, but he still can't figure it out. I believe that if he wasn't convinced that the news was from Yuan Fang, and the other party was not a person who would joke, he would only think that he was watching a ridiculous story......

There are some things that don't need to be elaborated on, no one is a fool, Tiu is not, Yuan Fang is not, and neither are the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers. So don't wonder if the search method is wrong, or if there are any hidden places that have not been found, etc., these can only be regarded as flukes. There is only one reason for such an incredible result, and that is that the opposing officer does have unpredictable methods!

Halfway through, An Shuai's brows were still tightly locked, and he finally gave up thinking about it, turned his head and asked, "What about after that?"

Shaking his head, a wry smile appeared on the corner of the middle-aged barbarian's mouth: "No, I haven't found the other party from beginning to end, and I don't even know how many people there are on the other side...... Tius is going mad, and he has tried everything he can to find nothing. Zuihou Yuanfang wanted to let Tiu learn a lesson, so he didn't use a carpet to forcibly search. Instead, they withdrew with the army. Alas......"

In a long sigh. The middle-aged barbarian couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly. Not to mention Tiu who was in it. It's just that he, a bystander, wants to go crazy when he sees it now!

An Shuai nodded slowly, but did not comment on Yuan Fang's decision, but frowned: "Such a figure appeared in Bran's army...... More than 1,000 people, are they the regiment commanders? Well, pass the order and send the Dark Serpent Guard to infiltrate the Thunder Legion defense area. Anyway, be sure to find out this person for me. It's best to be able to tie it up, if you can't. Kill on the spot!"

After a pause, his expression was solemn, "We can't see another miracle-winning Zi Yi appear!"

"Uh......" The middle-aged barbarian was stunned for a moment, although he had already attached enough importance to the ability of the other party's officer Nabran, but he didn't expect that in An Shuai's heart, this person actually had the shadow of Ziyi...... After coming back to his senses, he subconsciously responded, but then he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "An Shuai, it's not over yet." ”

An Shuai's body shook when he heard this. Turning his head slowly, he paused word by word: "Still, yes?"

"Yes. The middle-aged barbarian nodded bitterly. "Do you remember, we had a whole Wilderness Wolf Cavalry Brigade in the Thunder Legion defense zone. Because there have been battles there lately, you ordered them to be transferred a few days ago?"

"Yes, there is such a thing. Well, what does this have to do with the other party?"

"Yes. The Wolf Rider wants to pass us, and needs to pass through the outer reaches of the wilderness. Tiu didn't know where he found out about this, so he wrote to six hundred wolf horsemen and continued to hunt them down. ”

"This bastard...... Elite vs. Elite? It's a bit of a brain. ”

Speaking of bastards, it's because Tiu even dared to rob the people he ordered to transfer, which was really audacious. However, An Shuai's reaction was so fast, and after a little thought, he understood Tiu's intentions. I have to say that to deal with a small elite team like the other party, it is undoubtedly the most haode way to ride the elite with the wild wolf who is also good at tracking here, so Zuihou still praised it.

"I hope his brain isn't good enough......" The corners of the middle-aged barbarian's mouth twitched a few times, and he spread his hands, "Three days later, six hundred wild wolf riders successfully tracked each other. By the way, only then did I know that there were only about 600 people on the other side. Then the wild wolf rode out, the other party fled, and the two sides entered a dense forest, and the result was ......"

Speaking of this, the words were obvious, and the middle-aged barbarian officer's face became more and more bitter.

Na An Shuai didn't notice this, he frowned and muttered the word "dense forest", and subconsciously glanced to the west.

As a result, the other party directly set a fire and set the entire forest on fire...... The six hundred wilderness wolf riders were almost wiped out, and only a few escaped alive......" pursed his lips, swallowed extremely dryly, and said with difficulty, "The few surviving wilderness wolf riders are divided into two groups, one person goes back to report reinforcements, fortunately, if this person doesn't come back, I'm afraid we won't know about it...... As for the other few people who followed and followed the other party, there was no news from them, so they should have been killed by the other party......"

After passing through the city gate, as far as the eye could see, the scattered corpses and the fragments of the city's defense equipment were in a mess. The middle-aged barbarian rode on his horse, grabbed his hair, and looked like he was crying and laughing, extremely strange: "Oh, six hundred wilderness wolves ride, six hundred...... As a result......, 599 were killed!

“......”

The scene was silent, except for the bitter cold wind passing through the city gate, making a whimpering and desolate sound. Na An Shuai didn't say a word, looking at the figure of the West from afar like a weathered sculpture, standing still.

......

......

The two of them were feeling Tiu's madness and stunned mood before, and now Tiu was on the verge of madness......

"I'm rubbing...... Can you be a little tough, can you be as tough as a man, can you have a good fight with us? Ah? Can you ......?"

"I don't understand! Your Zichen Legion has such a big reputation, right? Zi Yi even has the title of the god of war, and it shocks the entire Xize Continent, right? I'm a nobody, and I'm here to ask for advice, can't this Nima's little request be met?"

"Hey, don't go, I'm not done yet...... Please, everyone, please tell the Ziyi Army God when you go back, even if I beg him, Nima must come......"

......

This is a battlefield that has just ended, and there are not many corpses on the ground, more of them are toppled level building materials, broken wood, broken stones, and other things scattered all over the ground.

But after all, it's a battlefield, and there should still be a solemn atmosphere such as dignified and iron-blooded. But now the atmosphere was ruined by the heart-rending roar that resounded through the sky.

Threaten, provoke, plead...... A long roar, an emotion.

After the roar, the battlefield fell silent instantly, and the faces of the barbarians who were black and oppressed in the vicinity were extremely strange. And the object of the roar, the Zichen Legion soldiers in standard armor in the distance, were unheard of and retreated in an orderly manner.

"What are you doing in a daze? I will put together the corpses of the Bran soldiers on the ground, and find a way to make up the missing arms and legs. By the way, find some more wild flowers to sprinkle on them, and Zuihou will carry them to the Zichen Legion defense area...... That attitude must be respected, just say that I, Tiwu, want to invite the Ziyi military god to come over and talk. Well, that's it, go ahead and get ......."

Waving his arms wildly, Tiu rubbed his hair and walked back rather depressedly.

Seven days, a whole week! Their army wandered back and forth on the periphery of the Zichen Legion's defense area, sweeping more than 20 military strongholds alone. Among them, Tiu also continued to ridicule, ridicule, provoke, and even plead with various tactics. But up to now, the Zichen Legion still hasn't sent even a single team out to fight! How can this not make the ambitious Tiu go crazy and want to die in frustration? He can accept any form of defeat, but he can't accept being ignored nakedly!

Bumped into Yuan Fang, who was walking in a hurry with a look, and Tiu suddenly broke out: "I can't stand it, I can't stand it...... I'm going to attack, I'm going to enter the hinterland of the Zichen Army! I warn you not to stop me, otherwise I won't give my uncle face...... Uh, what's that?"

............ (To be continued......)
