Chapter 446: Encirclement and Suppression Begin
There were no guards in the border city, only the common people, bustling, and occasionally one or two soldiers could be seen patrolling to maintain order.
This is because the border is fought all year round, and almost all the soldiers are stationed on the city walls, or at the city gates.
Therefore, the troops in the border cities are not very strong, and they can barely meet the requirements.
The other is also because the realm of monks in the border city is very low, most of them are cultivators of the Pulse Refining Realm, and there are very few monks of the One Realm.
The main reason is that the aura here is thin and the resources are very few, plus many people have chosen to join the army to defend their families and the country, or they want to go into battle to kill the enemy and make meritorious achievements.
Qin Nanqi found that although there were many vendors on both sides of the street, the things they sold were extremely cheap and inconspicuous.
Even the items in the store are quite thin, and the aura is quite thin, which shows how backward the border city is.
The group soon came to the City Lord's Mansion, and the two guards who were guarding saw everyone and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Everyone, is there something wrong with coming to the City Lord's Mansion?"
The guards had never seen so many young junjie arrive together, so they hurriedly ran forward and asked a little respectfully.
"We are students of Tianwu Academy, and we are ordered by the academy to come to the border city to encircle and suppress the grass of the Southern Barbarian Country, you can take me to see the city lord first. ”
Wu Wushuang did not put on a show, or even show the identity of the prince, but concisely and clearly stated the purpose of this trip.
"Okay, please come with me. ”
The guard nodded in response.
The Southern Barbarian Grass Bandits burned, killed and looted in the border cities, so that many people were persecuted, and the key is that they could not be completely eliminated.
Because once the border city sent soldiers to defend the city and encircled and suppressed it on a large scale, the strength of the city wall would become weak, thus giving the Southern Barbarian State a chance to attack the city, so it had to turn to the imperial city for help.
I never thought that someone would come to help so soon, and he was also a genius disciple of Tianwu Academy.
"Let's go. ”
Wu Wushuang nodded.
He didn't take anyone with him, but went directly with the guards to find the city lord.
Soon, Wu Wushuang came to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion.
In the lobby, there was a tall and burly middle-aged man with a beard standing like a steel needle, dark skin, and thick eyebrows and big eyes.
His aura was majestic, like a country villager, and he didn't look like a strong man, but when those eyes swept over, it was terrifying.
"City Lord, someone from the Tianwu Academy has come to help. ”
The guard shouted.
Hearing this, the city lord immediately turned around and looked at the person who came.
He hesitated for only a moment, then bowed down and shouted.
"Weichen Zhang Xian, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Although the generals and city lords of the Tianwu Kingdom who are guarding one side are almost all the year round, they will not easily return to the imperial city.
But for the important figures of the royal family, they are still familiar, such as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Wu Wushuang.
"What, he's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
The guard was also shocked, stunned in place, he almost subconsciously knelt on the ground.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"They all got up, there is no His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, only reinforcements who were ordered to come to encircle and suppress Caokou. ”
Wu Wushuang waved his hand and motioned for the two city lords to get up.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I've been running around for a few days, why don't I rest for a day first, and I'll discuss with you in detail tomorrow about the encirclement and suppression of Caokou. ”
Zhang Xian said with a deep groan.
After all, Wu Wushuang is the current prince, not a soldier who has been fighting for many years, and his safety and state, Zhang Xian still has to take it into consideration.
"No, since the Imperial City sent troops, it means that the Cao Kou has already had a great impact on the border of my Tianwu Kingdom, and I waited to come here in order to exterminate the Cao Kou as soon as possible and go back to restore my life. ”
Wu Wushuang said categorically, exuding an aura of iron and blood all over his body.
"The city lord only needs to tell me where the grass is located, and we will go there immediately, and we will definitely kill them without leaving anyone behind!"
"Okay, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please come with me. ”
Zhang Xian is not an indecisive person either.
Since Wu Wushuang had said so, he didn't say anything more.
The two of them came to a sand table, which was a map of the surface of the border city, and the border city was in the middle of the sand table.
I saw Zhang Xian pointing to the west of the border city, a place surrounded by mountains, and said in a deep voice.
"Here, there are hundreds of mountain ranges, endless, rich in vegetation and trees, covering an area of thousands of miles, and those grass robbers hide in the mountains. ”
Hearing this, Wu Wushuang was a little frightened, a land of thousands of miles, what a huge mountain range this is, no wonder the border city asked to save the imperial city.
With such a large mountain range, it is impossible to find and kill all the grass robbers in a short period of time.
What's more, the soldiers on the border can't compare their personal combat strength with the Imperial City Tianjiao at all, which also leads to the fact that it is impossible for them to fight alone.
Therefore, if you want to search for the grass cogues, you need an extremely large amount of manpower, which is simply not possible for the border city.
Because of the weakness of a city wall, the Southern Barbarians will definitely attack with all their might.
"How many people are there?"
Wu Wushuang asked again.
"According to statistics, there are two leaders in this group of grass robbers, divided into principal and deputy leaders, both of whom are cultivating in the Gathering Sea Realm, and the captain and the grass Kou in important positions are also cultivating in the Gathering Sea Realm.
In addition, the weakest ones all have the fivefold realm of the One Realm, and there are about two thousand people in total. ”
Zhang Xian said in a deep voice.
"So many people?"
Wu Wushuang frowned, there were a lot of people from the Tianwu Academy this time, and there were only three or four hundred people, and the number of grass thieves was almost six or seven times that of them.
"Leave this matter to us. ”
"Okay, do you need me to order someone to take His Royal Highness the Crown Prince down?"
Zhang Xian asked.
"No need. ”
Wu Wushuang shook his head and asked again.
"By the way, where are Elder Yong and the others?"
"They have already entered the mountain range, and there is no news yet, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince enters it, they will surely meet soon. ”
Zhang Xian replied truthfully.
Wu Wushuang nodded, then left the lobby and returned to the place where the Tianwu Academy and the others were.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what's the situation?"
Ouyang Jiang stepped forward and asked.
Not only him, but the rest of the Tianwu Academy also looked at Wu Wushuang one after another.
"According to the intelligence, Caokou is in the mountains and mountains to the west, covering an area of thousands of miles, with a total of more than 2,000 people, many of whom are cultivating in the Sea Realm. ”
Wu Wushuang didn't have any concealment, he looked at everyone.
"Although your strength is very strong, what I still want to say is that if you can form a team, it is best not to act alone, people in the One Realm, if you encounter the cultivation of the Gathering Sea Realm, don't choose to fight hard, you are all the future of the academy, I don't want any of you to lose here!"
"Yes!"
The people answered.
"Alright, let's go, head to the mountains to the west, and cut down the grass!"
Wu Wushuang shouted loudly, and the sound shook like thunder.
As the words fell, a group of people marched towards the mountains.
When they approach the mountains, they can really feel the enormity of the mountains, and the giant trees cover the sky and the sun, and there is no end in sight, giving people a sense of recklessness.
