Chapter 897: Not Human Inside and Out (Five Thousand +)

North, front-line battlefields.

"Isn't it, it's really fighting?"

"What are you doing, fighting a field war with those four-limbed barbarians......"

"Isn't the chief's brain squeezed by the door......?

"Okay, shut up for me! The commanders have their own reasons and rules for their own actions, and we soldiers are ordered to do so much!"

In the barren mountains and mountains, a small group of five soldiers wearing the standard armor of the Zichen Legion quickly and carefully shuttled behind the trees and rocks, climbing high and looking into the distance from time to time, looking around, and quickly moving forward.

Needless to say, from this style, it can be seen that this is an elite scout team.

As the vanguard of the great war, the importance of scouts to every army is undeniable. In a way, they are the eyes of the commanders in the army and the source of confidence in wartime judgment and decision-making. If necessary, they will also turn into a sharp knife and stab the enemy's logistics and supplies at key points.

It is precisely for these reasons that if the average tactical literacy of that branch of the army is the highest, it is undoubtedly these scouts who constantly wander the battlefield and always have first-hand information.

Of course, because of this, he was greatly puzzled and even questioned about the behavior of his own army suddenly sending troops into this unobstructed battlefield as if he had taken berserk medicine, intending to fight a field battle with the barbarians.

Originally, the barbarians' terrifying individual combat ability was clear to any rookie recruit who had been on the front line for a few days. What's more, now this side doesn't even have an advantage in defending the city, but now it suddenly whimsically wants to confront such an opponent in the field, isn't it looking for death?

But. As the squad leader reprimanded just now, they are just soldiers. It is a duty to obey the orders of superiors. Even if you are puzzled and questioned, you must carry out your orders to the letter in wartime!

And in fact. Their concerns are indeed warranted......

Ascending to the top of a mountain range, before the safety of the surrounding environment was checked, the scouts of the team shook in unison, "Damn...... It's coming!"

In the distance, at the end of the fairly flat wilderness, the black pressed a phalanx of figures, the number of which was unknown, and it was slowly pressed with a terrifying power that covered the sky and the sun.

I can't see the face clearly, but the experienced elite scouts rely on a pair of naked eyes. Looking at its marching temperament, you can instantly judge whether the other party is a friendly army or an enemy army, and eight or nine are not far from ten.

As for the moment, it is, of course, the enemy barbarian army. This is also something that can be guessed lightly, after all, since the Zichen Legion chooses to fight in the field, the barbarians who are extremely good at this almost family ability naturally have no reason not to fight.

"The enemy is about twenty miles away from our army, the number is unknown, and the preliminary estimate is not less than 30,000. Detailed information was then probed into the report...... Monkey, go back and inform the general!" The squad leader gave a decisive order, and a thin young scout nodded slightly when he heard this, and he didn't talk nonsense, he simply turned around and ran away quickly in the direction he came.

"Hey, hey. See, rookie, this is what a veteran is capable of!" he pointed to the squad leader. A scout smiled and patted the delicate-looking young companion beside him, and his tone was frivolous. "You just came here, and you don't know a lot of things. Follow us and learn well. ”

Nodding, the young scout didn't seem to be good at words, and his expression had the nervousness and caution of just entering the battlefield.

"Hey, how can it be like a stuffy gourd, you have a reply, or you can reply a word. ”

β€œ...... Good. ”

β€œ...... Let you reply a word, your special mother really reply a word?"

"Haha......" looked at the old scout's depressed expression, and the other scout couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense. The team leader waved his hand, "Let's go, take a closer look." "If you want to get the most accurate information, you have to get as close as possible to the target you are observing, which is very simple, and of course, the closer the danger......

As soon as the words fell, the Qingxiu scout, who had been vigilant, seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned his head to look at the bushes not far away, his expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed and retreated: "There are barbarians, retreat!"

The Bran army has scouts, and of course the barbarian army has it. The former is a professional, and the latter is simply a good hunter. Therefore, it is really difficult to say which of the two is higher or lower. However, one thing can be confirmed, that is, once the two meet, most of the first to retreat are Bran scouts. There is no way, the barbarians' individual combat ability is too strong.

Seeing that the "Gollum ......" was discovered, several burly and somewhat excessive figures like cheetahs rushed out from behind the bushes, shouting indistinct brute words, as if they were intimidating and striding after them.

Whoosh, swish, press your wrist, and the crossbow arrow breaks through the air. "Let's go!" Originally, he was not an opponent alone, but now that the number of people was not dominant, the squad leader decisively shot out a small repeating crossbow hidden in his sleeve, turned around and took a few scouts who reacted, and ran quickly.

"Roar-" Roar howled in pain, and the barbarian scouts who were so close that the target was too obvious naturally couldn't dodge these crossbow arrows.

However, they often deal with Bran's peers, and they seem to know that the other party has this trick, and when they jump out of the bushes, Pu Fan's big hand blocks the face door, throat and other vital positions. This action also saved their lives, and the crossbow bolt was shot at the arms of the two barbarians running at the front, and it pierced deep into it, and blood splattered everywhere.

Naturally, this injury can't kill people, in fact, this can only be said to be a minor injury for a barbarian, and the combat effectiveness is not reduced. On the contrary, it even stimulated the anger of the pursuing barbarians, and they roared again and again, and their eyes were scarlet like beasts in the forest.

chased and fled, and in a short period of time, the two sides ran out of several miles. The distance has not widened, nor has it been shortened, it is still the same distance as at the beginning. During the escape, the team leader looked back from time to time, and his heart was bitter, and he couldn't help but scream secretly.

The two sides were so close that they were almost in front of each other when they spotted each other, and they didn't have time to make the decision to separate and hide.

And although it is similar to the characteristics of a strong body, clumsy and sluggish movements, it is almost a barbarian label. But that's just an ordinary barbarian, and the barbarian who can be a scout is certainly not slow. In fact. The scout team should be glad by now, because they didn't encounter the Hidden Snake Tribe's professional scout class, the Dark Serpent Guard, who came and went like the wind. Otherwise, the battle will be won or lost as early as the moment the two sides meet. It was decided without any suspense.

As for the moment, the situation is not good. The pursuit of the barbarians was no slower than theirs. And don't look at the fact that the other party has not been able to close the distance now. But that's just because the time hasn't come yet.

Sometime later, when they had to slow down, barbarians with far more stamina than ordinary people would come after them. At that point, it will be time for their scout team to be wiped out......

Thinking of this, the resolute and resolute squad leader gritted his teeth and grabbed the short-bladed dagger in his hand, slowing down slightly.

Since you can't escape, you can only throw the bait and break it, so that the others have time to find a place to hide. After all, a dead person. It's better than everybody dying here.

Just when the captain of the squad was secretly dying, suddenly, the Qingxiu scout who was running on the left side of him suddenly turned around and stopped, pulled out the short blade on his waist, and frantically killed the chasing barbarian: "Run-"

"Don't! Kevin!"

"Come back rookieβ€”"

Seeing that Kevin, a rookie who had just come to the team and had a wooden personality and was often silent, suddenly made such a crazy move, the team leader was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were suddenly split. With a roar, he immediately turned around to rescue.

But before he could turn around, two scouts suddenly pounced on him and dragged him backwards. "What the hell are you doing, let me go, I command you to ......."

"Shut up, Captain, do you want this rookie, Kevin, to die for nothing!" the scout, who had just teased his delicate companion, his eyes were slightly red, and his expression was hideous, and he roared in turn with a higher roar.

The body that struggled violently stiffened. It was as if all the strength in his body had been drained in an instant, and the team leader was powerless to fall on the shoulders of his companions. All are battlefield veterans. Naturally, we know what decision is the best choice for the moment. It's just that he didn't expect that it was not him, the captain, who made this decision, but a recruit who had just entered the battlefield......

Disappear in front of the hollow. The team leader watched as Kevin was hit from the front by the barbarian's iron rod, vomiting blood and flying out like a rotten log...... I couldn't help but close my eyes, looking pained,

"!"

......

At the moment, this scene is undoubtedly very heroic, very common, and very unusual on the battlefield, and it is being played out everywhere on the front line.

If there are no accidents, the survivors will be very sad when they go back, and then apply for a martyr's status for this Kevin, and fight for more pensions. Or perhaps, with a little more affection and righteousness, these people will find Kevin's family after retiring, and if the other party's family has difficulties, they will not hesitate to help......

However, if these people do not leave immediately, they will find that the truth is not what they imagined......

After vomiting blood and flying out, with a bang, this Kevin slammed his back into a rock plane, smashing out cracks and splattering rubble.

The barbarian who swung his stick did not pay any attention to him, but roared in exasperation and continued to stride forward. They were confident in their own strength, and there was no way that the emaciated Brans would survive the blow, and they were only a little annoyed that the man did not know whether he was alive or dead, and that he might well have let the other Brans go.

Still, "Do you want to go?"

With a faint voice, several barbarians in the running were stunned in unison, their faces full of doubts. Not only because of the sudden strangeness of this question, but also because of the extremely authentic barbarian pronunciation.

Turning his head, the bull's eyes suddenly widened.

On the rock, the mortal Bran soldier rolled over and sat up, lowered his head and straightened the almost completely torn leather armor on his chest, pulled it a few times, and simply took it off in its entirety. The whole action was very natural and casual, how could there be a little bit of injury and dying? Clapped his hands, looked up, and smiled and groaned, "I thought it would take at least a few days to change my identity...... Well, it seems that I was lucky to have met you when I first arrived. ”

It's still an authentic barbarian language, and when you listen carefully, it still has an authentic imperial city accent.

"Who are you?" The scene in front of him was really weird, and Rao is simple-minded barbarian also sensed that something was wrong, and grabbed the iron rod and asked vigilantly.

"Can't you see it so obvious?" the Qingxiu scout spread his hands, "Of course I am...... What the hell!"

As soon as the ghost word fell, the Qingxiu scout suddenly disappeared into thin air on the rock, and before a few barbarians showed shocked looks, a palm poked out from behind a barbarian, and easily stroked his neck,

Click-click-

A creepy, tooth-souring crisp bone cracking sound rang out one after another, in a short instant, except for the barbarian who had just swung his stick and hit the Qingxiu scout. The other barbarian scouts simply fell to the ground, unmoved.

The barbarians who will be terrifying in the ability to fight alone. After pinching to death like a chicken, the delicate scout who didn't feel that he had done anything amazing. Touching his chin, he observed the corpses of the barbarians one by one, and then looked up at the surviving barbarians with their eyes open and blank faces, and couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh lightly, "Alas, it's just ugly, and none of them look like people...... This makes me choose, tangled ......"

Go without saying. This so-called recruit Kevin is naturally the disguised Done.

The space mage didn't lie to him, and after exhausting three horses, it took Don a day and a night to finally reach the frontline war zone.

Of course, coming here was only a prelude to the assassination of the mysterious barbarian commander. Leaving aside where the other party is now, it's just that how to get through the tightly controlled Bran war zone is the primary practical problem in front of us.

You must know that with the start of the war, all places close to the frontline theater of operations are military control areas. Ordinary people, not to mention entering, are the people of the towns who used to live here, and now they are also arranged by the Bran military to retreat to the rear.

Of course. It's hard for Done. After a little tricking, with his superb concealment and stealth skills, Tang En made it all the way to the front line. Then he disguised himself and took advantage of the strong attack of the barbarians. And the greatly disorganized Bran army was mixed in with the scattered soldiers who had retreated.

The situation is tense, and these scattered defeated troops often do not return to their armies immediately. Instead, he didn't ask for the number, and was incorporated into the new team on the spot. With this vulnerability. Don managed to reach the front of the line. And because he thought that this identity was just a transition, Tang En reported the identity of a scout who could blend into the battlefield at that time.

Good luck. Don had thought that even if he wanted to actually meet the barbarians, it would take at least a few days. But he didn't want to just come here, and he caught up with the time when the senior generals of the Zichen Legion seemed to have a collective convulsion, and they were immediately sent into the battlefield to inquire about the movements of the barbarian army......

Then, naturally, he encountered these barbarian scouts at the moment.

After struggling for a while, thinking that those good comrades-in-arms just now would definitely find a way to come over and collect his 'bones', Tang En sighed resignedly, raised his foot and kicked these barbarian corpses off the cliff, and then squinted at the surviving barbarians who kept retreating and trembling, revealing a smile that he thought was kind: "Hehe, don't be nervous, I don't discriminate against you...... Come, tell me what is your name, how many people are in your family, how many acres of land per capita, how many cows are in the field, tell me, tell me ......."

A moment later, the surviving barbarians walked out with a huge iron rod on their shoulders. Of course, this is no longer the original barbarian, but Don after successfully copying the disguise.

If you want to inquire about the news and successfully approach the mysterious barbarian commander, the identity of the barbarian is undoubtedly the most suitable. Tang En had also disguised a barbarian once before, and he was also on this frontline battlefield, and now he was naturally familiar with camouflage again. The difference is that Tang En didn't understand brute language at that time, and he almost missed it, but now it can be said that there is no flaw.

He walked back and forth a few steps at the pace of a barbarian, looking for a feeling, and said to himself, "My name is Saba...... Wow, why is this so weird name...... From the Storm Bear tribe, he is seventeen years old...... Damn, this development is too good, do you take hormones...... There is an old lady in the family, a girl, the fifth in line, an older sister and three older brothers, two younger brothers and three younger sisters below...... Cow! I can't give birth, I don't know if I have fewer children and a happy life......

Just as Don was concentrating on familiarizing himself with all the basic information of this body, he suddenly said, "It's right ahead, hurry up...... Don't let those damn crumbs go, I'm going to screw their heads with my own hands and avenge Kevin......"

"Huh?" Tang En turned his head in astonishment, and saw a large group of about a hundred Bran soldiers rushing towards him with fierce looks, and the leader was really his former good comrades, that is, the scout team that had just escaped.

"Sure enough, it's here, brothers, chop him upβ€”"

"No, aren't there a few more?"

"Wait...... Where's Kevin's bones?"

As soon as the two sides looked at each other, Tang En scolded his mother in his heart, these more than 100 Bran soldiers were obviously not from the scout battalion. Obviously, it was his comrades who occasionally bumped into each other when they returned, and then invited them to come and avenge him. This Nima, who was chased and killed by the barbarians just now, is now being chased and killed by the Bran soldiers, how can he not be a human inside and out......

Without saying a word, drag the iron rod upside down and turn around and run!

Behind him, the squad leader screamed in sorrow, "Beasts, you can't even let go of corpses, you can eat them...... Kill him, kill him......"

Hearing this, Tang En suddenly staggered, and the barbarian who had just adjusted his pace almost made a mistake and fell to the ground. Why don't you want people to be cloudy, master, I have been in the Northern Wilderness, why don't you know that barbarians still have the habit of eating people...... Rumors kill people!

Even if he changed to an awkward running position, Donn's speed was naturally not something that these Bran soldiers could keep up with. A puff of smoke descended to the foot of the mountain, widening the distance between the two sides.

As soon as he raised his head, Tang En, who was about to run back to the original army like this, was stunned for a moment, on the boundless wilderness, the barbarian army that was slowly pressing and the Zichen army that had just appeared, separated by a distance of about a few miles, were like two wild beasts that had long been unpleasant, they didn't need to be tempted at all, they slowly approached, and the big battle was about to break out.

Coming back to his senses, Don pouted, "I won't thank you, old fox. ”

It's true that Don doesn't understand military strategy, but that doesn't mean he's an idiot. The Zichen Army's large-scale counteroffensive strategy was obviously abnormal, and the difference in strength between the soldiers on both sides was impossible for the Zichen generals not to see. Therefore, in the current situation, it is only possible that the Zichen Legion has received an irresistible order from the upper level, so it has made such a stupid move......

As for the other party's purpose, it is nothing more than to make the situation chaotic so that he can fish in troubled waters......

I am willing to pay for it!
