Chapter 470: Trickery
Less than five miles away from the Wuchao granary, there is a valley with very hidden terrain. There is no name here, and there is no trace of it even on the map. Originally, this valley belonged to a merchant in the city of Gondor. It was so remote that the merchant bought the valley only because of its geography and climate, and for the cultivation of medicinal herbs, not as a place to live.
After the arrival of the alliance of princes, the whole territory of Caiyunnan fell except for the main city of Gondor, and this valley became the spoils of the alliance of princes.
But now, this remote valley has lost its former tranquility......
The moon black geese fly high, and the cold light shines on the iron clothes. The small valley was actually crowded with heavily armed sergeants! From their eyes, it was clear that they were a real army of tigers and wolves, and every one of them had seen blood on the battlefield. They are the heroes of a hundred battles that Harmon Cook relies on to dominate the world, and this time in the battle of Gondor, the real main force of the alliance of princes.
They did not go to the main camp, but lurked in this hidden valley, like hunters staring at their prey, they had to hold their breath before hunting, until the moment they released the arrow in their hand, they would burst out with a murderous aura that soared into the sky!
And the commander of the alliance of princes, Harmon Cook, is actually here, and the direction he is looking at is the granary of the black nest! It seems that he has already seen through his father's clumsy and outdated scheme, and simply came up with a trick to "plan the plan"!
"Dashuai, that old ...... The Great Commander of Levi has entered the Black Nest, shall we attack?"
Hamon Cook glared at the prince with displeasure, and saw that the latter was trembling and trembling, and then he gave up. Levi Cook is his father, even if he is now in the opposing camp, it is not something that others can insult!
Cleaning up the disobedient princes with just his eyes, Hamon Cook smiled with satisfaction: "Wait a little longer. The fish enter the net, but there is still a lot of strength, if the net is closed early, the fish are frightened and run away, which is not a good thing for us!"
The prince didn't understand Harmon Cook's words, but nodded obediently. After this battle, Harmon Cook has established supreme authority in the South of the Clouds. As long as he can break through Gondor, Hamon Cook is the new king of the South of the Clouds. If he wants to get mixed up in Hamon Cook's court, he has to take advantage of the fact that he is doing a good job now.
Hamon Cook didn't have time to pay attention to the thoughts of these princes, he only had one thing in his mind now, and that was to fulfill his long-held dream - to defeat his father! Defeat him completely! Hamon Cook wanted his father to bow his proud head in front of him and admit his own defeat! Admit that he was wrong!
Harmon Cook's eyes were full of excitement, this day, he had waited too long, too long. Thankfully, he wasn't kept waiting, and the ideal would soon come true.
......
It was an organized, disciplined massacre.
The soldiers guarding the granary of Wuchao are only second-line soldiers, and it can be seen that they are all new soldiers, who have not been trained much, and their weapons, armor, skills, and will ...... None of them were as limited as the Praetorian Guards, and they were unsuspecting of the enemy's approach. After a hand-to-hand encounter, they will only deal with it in a hurry, and they will not be able to deal with the enemy in a joint formation, and they are not the opponent of the Janissaline Army, a division of tigers and wolves.
In just half an hour, the Praetorian Guard cleared all the enemy troops in the granary.
Things were going so well that Levi Cook became suspicious. Even if the news of the night attack caused Harmon Cook to transfer the main defenders of the Blacknest Granary, he shouldn't have sent these second-line recruits to defend such a soldier's place as the Blacknest Granary. Will there be fraud?
But when the subordinates came back one after another to tell the truth, the grain stored in the granary was plain, and there was nothing suspicious.
Levi Cook was in a state of confusion, but he didn't have time to think about it. The movement of the battle here must have alarmed the main camp of the princes' coalition army, and Harmon Cook's men could come over at any time. If it's too late, all the hard work they've been planning for a long time will be in vain!
"Commander, what about this food?"
The soldiers of the Praetorian Guard came to inquire. In fact, they themselves know what the result of this question will be, but they are still holding a bit of luck, hoping that there will be a turnaround.
But in front of such a master as Levi Cook, the so-called turnaround will not exist at all.
"It's all burned, and not a grain of grain can be left for them!" Levi Cook's attitude was as resolute as ever.
Everyone had no choice but to light the torches they carried with them and set fires everywhere. These grains and grasses were originally theirs! Since the southern king's bloodline was cut off, Caiyun Zhinan has been like a curse, and there have been many disasters and natural disasters. It's been a long time since Gondor had a good harvest. The food hoarded in the Wuchao granary was enough for the people of the city to eat for three months, and it was a pity that it was burned like this.
However, it is difficult to disobey the military order, and they can only obey the military order, even if they are unwilling, they can only obey Levi Cook's order and burn the grain.
......
When the flames of the blacknest granary rose into the sky, the alliance of princes hiding in the nameless valley began to stir like sharks smelling blood.
The commander of the alliance of princes, Hamon Kuklang, laughed loudly: "The enemy army has entered my urn, the time has come!
"Kill!" everyone shouted in unison, stepped on their horses, and galloped towards the blacknest granary.
The Janissaries of Gondor were burning food in the Black Nest when they suddenly felt a tremor of the earth, as if thousands of troops were galloping towards them.
"Are you coming? but alas, it's late!"
Levi Cook smiled triumphantly at the corner of his mouth, and was about to beckon everyone to retreat. But when his hand was raised, the war horse under his crotch suddenly stumbled and fell. Levi Cook was surprised that he actually felt dizzy and couldn't get up when he fell to the ground!
He turned his eyes to his Praetorian Guards, just like him.
What the hell is going on?
Levi Cook sniffled, his face suddenly changing.
The air was filled with the stench of burnt rice, but in the midst of it, there was a faint aroma of wine.
"It's ...... Drunken Dragon Grass!"
Drunken Dragon Grass is a numbing medicine used by the locals in the south of Caiyun to hunt demonic beasts, and burning a Drunken Dragon Grass can bring down an adult flying elephant. There are more than thousands of drunken dragon grass here!
Even now, how can Levi Cook not know that he has been tricked!
