Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Marauders
Paradise City. [Full text reading]
From afar, Zeng Guoxuan, Jiang Chunshui and others who saw the city all expressed their heartfelt admiration. Just on the way, there was a light rain, and at this moment, the sun was shining through the cracks in the clouds, shining just above the city in the distance. The air was filled with water droplets, and a thin rainbow just encircled the snow-white city.
The whole body of the city is made of white rocks, the city wall is not high, only four or five zhang, but the whole body is snow-white, and there are many small white statues on the wall. The dripping walls and the decorations above glisten in the sunlight and are fascinating. There was only a small moat about two people wide outside the city, and the city gate was full of people, and many caravans were waiting to enter the city at the gate in the direction of the cavalry. A flag decorated with gold patterns on a white background fluttered on the flagpole at the head of the city, and on the top of the city wall, hundreds of soldiers walked back and forth lazily.
Yang Tian drew his saber and slashed downward, making a 'thud' sound. The sound of the sword unsheathed was endless, countless weapons were drawn, and a multicolored dragon flag more than three feet high was also played, and with the roar of horses' hooves, the brigade charged towards the city gate. Immediately, there was a howl from the other side of the city wall, and there was chaos at the city gate, and the caravans rushed into the city gate desperately, and then the gate was slowly closed.
The old ghost of the black sky scolded: "Damn, what are you doing when you close the door, if you don't welcome Lao Tzu into the city, you will be damned." He shook his hand and threw a few fireballs over.
Less than five zhang in front of Yang Tian, the black fireball blew the city gate to pieces, and more than a dozen unlucky soldiers were on fire, screaming and falling into the moat outside. Yang Tian lowered his head fiercely, dodged the debris in front of him, and rushed into the city first. At the sound of the wind, a huge figure roared angrily and rushed in, it was that there was no horse to carry, and he chased the horse's butt and ate a lot of dust along the way, and was depressed Gnu.
A dozen spears trembled and stabbed at him, but Gnu did not return fire, but only held back a roar of rage, and the powerful sound wave shook the soldiers to the heart, their ears were buzzing, they screamed wildly, threw down their weapons and ran towards the street behind.
In the middle of the avenue not far from the city gate, there was a statue of pure gold, a statue of a woman who was extremely beautiful, holding a pile of fruits and other items in her hands. Gnu slashed out with a sword, and in Zeng Guoxuan's roar of 'pity', this statue of incredible value was split in half by a sword.
Yang Tian hurriedly ordered: "Come a few people, don't lose this statue, keep it for Lao Tzu." More than a dozen sons immediately led people to guard the statue, and began to think about how much this two-person tall pure gold statue could cost. They are full of virtue, and they are very proclaiming: Who dares to snatch a little finger from our hands, see grandpa, we will not split you. A few guys have already cracked their mouths and smirked: It's better to follow Boss Yang Tian, no, just started fighting, at least one hand can be shared, how can it be hundreds of taels of gold......
Countless soldiers emerged from the end of the avenue, and Yang Tian slapped his horse backwards and roared: "Fuck, they actually dare to come out and resist, brothers, I cut them down for Lao Tzu." He was about to retreat, but Long Feng grabbed him with one hand and shook his head slightly. Yang Tian was stunned for a moment, thought about it, smiled, nodded, abandoned the preparation to escape, and was the first to rush out, the gorgeous saber rippled in the air, and in the sword light, the heads of the three opposing infantry were thrown up with a rain of blood.
When the boys saw it, they immediately cheered up their originally timid mentality: The boss is not as good as himself, and now he has cut off three heads with a knife, which shows that we are also masters...... Hahahahaha, isn't it easy to deal with these miscellaneous soldiers?
Suddenly, the sons and buddies rushed over one by one with murderous, majestic and menacing slapping horses, and slashed out their swords as gorgeous as Yang Tian. For a while, the head was broken and the hand was flying, the broken sword and the broken shield were dancing together, and these opposing infantry suffered heavy casualties, but no one caused the slightest damage to these sons and brothers wearing good special armor.
'Rumble' was loud, the boys had just clashed in the first round, and the truly terrifying force in the rear, the cold-blooded warriors from the 'Tiger Wolf Army', entered the city. With extremely high combat experience, they did not rigidly follow Yang Tian into the city, but took a detour for a while, rushed in from the other three unprepared city gates, and happened to surround the enemy troops in the city from three sides, set up spears, and began the bloody impact of harvesting lives. The steel spears were staggeringly tough, and the knights of the 'Tiger and Wolf Army' with their powerful arms often used their terrible weapons to pierce three or four enemy soldiers, and then threw them far away, smashing other enemies with broken heads and broken bones.
Yang Tian began to restrain the sons behind him from the battlefield, and under his instructions, several interpreters shouted vividly: "We are the Heavenly Army of the Heavenly Pilgrimage Kingdom to crusade against the Black Cloud Empire, if you surrender, you can not die, put down your weapons and not die, surrender and do not die." Whoever resists will be killed. ”
The infantrymen, who were intimidated by the combat methods of the 'Tiger Wolf Army' and were surprised by the incredible sharpness of the sword in the hands of the son's buddies, quickly threw down their weapons, wrapped their hands around their heads, and honestly escorted the whole team to the square in the center of the city.
Feng Ling'er yawned and said a little depressedly: "It's strange, why did they resist so much and not resist for so long?" According to your people's ......" she muttered the next word, "it's not about to die, and they will definitely not let go of their country's enemies." ”
Long Feng smiled and said, "It's very simple, this country is not their country, and their leader should not be their own leader." Why should they die for them?" Long Feng's words hit the nail on the head: the soldiers in the city were not willing to die for the sake of Koster, the great nobleman of the Black Cloud Empire. However, Kerst was actually an unlucky fellow, he was completely defeated in the secret competition of the upper echelons of the Black Cloud Empire, and had to run to this remote, newly conquered place to become the governor.
The leader of the 'Tiger Wolf Army' and other officers began to ask Yang Tian for instructions: "My lord, what should I do next?"
Yang Tian was still thinking about what he should do next, but this guy Huangfu couldn't hold it anymore, took out a silver ticket and began to wave it to Yang Tian. Yang Tianmeng slapped his thigh: "Count the warehouse, control all the supplies...... brothers of the 'Tiger Wolf Army' work hard, find a place to shelter the prisoners, and then maintain law and order in the city." Brothers, come with me, and we will go to the pleasure of their governors. ”
The people around knew who Yang Tian's brothers were who Yang Tian was calling to have fun, and immediately, the boys began to gather with a smile, and the brothers of the 'Tiger and Wolf Army' began to make a series of actions in an orderly manner according to the results of the training. The old ghost of Heitian also followed Yang Tian out with a smile, and looked at a few anxious sons and brothers who had begun to secretly swallow aphrodisiacs into their stomachs...... After all, who doesn't want to find a chance to relax after all this time at sea? The question is, with so many boys, how many women are there in the Grand Duke's Mansion to make them happy.
The door of the mansion was tightly closed, and the armor of countless personal guards glistened through the cracks in the door, and the occasional slight impact of weapons was heard.
Yang Tian swaggered to the gate with four super bodyguards, and began to instruct the interpreter to shout: "We will treat the prisoners preferentially, and we will definitely not treat Mr. Grand Duke badly." We just need the Duke to help us keep the city safe. The position of the city lord, we will not move. ”
There was a panic in the door for a while, for a long time, for a long time, a young woman with a beautiful face poked her head out of the wall, and the warbler asked what she wanted, and the interpreter drooled and said, "She asked if our promise was valid, we didn't want them to surrender, and we still hurt them...... Well, we also want to guarantee the safety of the duke's personal property and his personal life. ”
Yang Tian whistled and threw a wink at the girl, and suddenly, a bunch of sons and brothers nearby were very funny, and they shook out all the foul words to that little girl, especially those who were in charge, they were no different from the little hooligans in the Holy Capital City, and they wriggled their lower bodies one by one, and made some unsightly moves towards that little girl.
Yang Tian instructed the interpreter to reply loudly: "We promise, we swear to absolutely guarantee our promise." No, hurry up and open the door, or we're welcome. We have attacked such a large city, do you think such a small mansion can withstand our attack?"
The old ghost of the black sky had already drooled three feet long, staring at the little girl and not letting go of his eyes, hearing Yang Tian's words, he directly split out with a palm, and a slight palm with a little black gas rolled up flatly, 'woo' A strange sound, the one-foot-thick courtyard gate let out a groan, and the whole moved more than three feet inside, and slowly fell down, and suddenly there was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping inside, and soon, a big fat man walked out slowly with a group of guards, shouting loudly. The interpreter hurriedly said: "General, they have surrendered, surrendered, and the one among them is their Duke of Koster." ”
Yang Tian nodded with satisfaction, and motioned for the big fat duke to lead people out, and then half of the people of the guard regiment entered the mansion, and the other half slowly surrounded the fat duke. The old ghost of the black sky grabbed the little girl who showed up and spoke just now with one hand, and asked viciously, "Is this girl your daughter?"
The interpreter hurriedly flattered the translator, and the fat duke's face was a little ugly with a smiling face: "This, no, she is my favorite little lady, she has only been married to me for three days, hehe, three days." ”
The old ghost of the black sky pulled it over with one hand and said with a big grin: "From today onwards, she will return to me, you fucking get out of me." A slap knocked the Duke off. The guards behind Koster drew their swords one by one in a rage, and immediately, Gnu smirked and drew his terrifyingly large sword, while shaking his huge figure, which was half a height higher than ordinary people. Long Feng intentionally or unintentionally gently touched a nearby bronze sculpture, and the sculpture immediately turned into molten iron in the flames and flowed down. The guards were clever enough to put their swords back, not even looking at the duke they were churning on the ground.
Yang Tian lazily pulled out his sword, gently wiped it over Cast's neck, and said with a smile: "This duke is a scourge to the people, so I slaughtered him...... It's also to save the people of this heavenly city, hehe......" The interpreter translated loudly, and some people who were brave enough to come out to see the excitement in the vicinity slapped their hands on the spot.
There was already a commotion in the courtyard, Yang Tian took the lead and rushed in, and the people of the Guards Regiment didn't bother to pay attention to the guards who were standing stupidly, and followed one by one to rush in. These guards looked at their cold and stiff masters, and they wisely threw down their weapons and slipped away one by one.
The courtyard was already full of gold, silver, jewelry, and so on. The old ghost rushed into a room with the frightened chick in his arms, and immediately there was a frightened scream and the pleasant sound of his clothes tearing. It's good now, the boy who has been holding back for a long, long time has done the same, grabbed the maids and others who were standing around him, and ran to a remote corner and fell to the ground......
Yang Tian was not so anxious, and pulled Zeng Guoxuan and the others, who had already erected a tent below, and began to check the private wealth of the duke. For a long time, after questioning several stewards and favored ladies in the mansion, the secret room was also opened, and the documents and treasures inside were looted. Yang Angel gave a look, and suddenly the sons and brothers were very orderly, according to their status and popularity in the group, they walked into the jewelry pile, and everyone did their best to fill their bodies with those most valuable shiny little things, as for those vulgar gold and silver, they were transferred by Yang Tian to subordinate soldiers, transported to the carriage, and prepared to serve as a military.
Long Feng looked at the mountains of gold and silver, and asked in a low voice: "There is only gold and silver, and there is no jewelry, I'm afraid it doesn't look good, right?" Yang Tian and the others thought for a long time, and then they took out a few small gems from their arms and put them on the pile ......of gold and silver.
Lin Yiyun said a little greedily: "But, to be honest, it's really rich here." A small lord, if his worth is placed in the Liuhua Continent, it will be at least four or five hundred million taels of silver...... This is one lord, how many lords are there in these three continents...... God, Boss...... We can't let the good things of raiding the house be robbed by others. ”
Yang Tian took a sip and said: "Nonsense, can I let the opportunity to make a fortune slip away?" Rest assured, our first army has a chance to make a fortune, and when Marshal Wen and several heavyweight supervisors from the Ministry of War come over, no one dares to do it anymore, so we must make enough money within two months to fatten ourselves up." In these years, there are wars every day, but the opportunity to make a fortune is not to be lost, and it will never come again. Well, find a few managers to be guides, and let's go and greet the local nobles one by one. ”
The crowd cheered, pulled up the heads who were trembling on the ground, hugged them and left.
Long Feng smiled bitterly: "If you have violated military discipline, you have to cover it up somewhat, right?" coldly popped out more than a dozen black flames, turning those female bodies that were still twitching on the ground into ashes in an instant, and then quickly chased after them. And in the room where the old ghost was located, there was still a faint scream and begging for mercy from the girl, God knows whether the old ghost was loving or killing......
The wind and clouds moved, and the weather, which was still a little sunny, suddenly changed its face again, and the wind rushed over, and a lightning bolt tore through the sky, and large raindrops fell frantically. At the head of the city, the ironclad warriors of the 'Tiger and Wolf Army' stood on it, vigilantly around,* as if they could not get close to their bodies at all. Bolts of lightning vaguely swept past their heads, but they didn't blink an eyebrow.
Half an hour later, an army quickly walked below the city, and a multicolored dragon flag fluttered high in the storm. These people were the infantry brigade to which Yang Tian belonged, and they hurried overnight, and they arrived here just over two hours later than Yang Tian's cavalry brigade.
A boy beside Yang Tian said with a hippie smile: "What stupid person, he still holds such a high flag on a thunderstorm, and he is not afraid that God will strike him with a thunderbolt?"
Yang Tian slapped him silently, and reprimanded him viciously: "Fuck you, without them, can you kid still make a fortune here and play with women? They are stupid, but if there were no such people in the Celestial Empire, your home would have been unable to be saved a long time ago." That boy's face was flushed, and he quickly apologized under the gaze of several people around him.
Zeng Guoxuan also commanded in a low voice: "Fuck, my old man said that getting rich by yourself is getting rich, but it can't be too much...... Those soldiers, hehe, if they weren't on duty, someone would touch them in the middle of the night, and we wouldn't know if our heads fell off. They are the real army, and we are just making up some military merits and making some war money. Brothers, no one is allowed to be unkind to them in the future. The boys around him responded again and again.
Yang Tian roared with satisfaction: "Brothers, Lao Tzu has already investigated clearly, the nobles of this city are all great nobles appointed by the Black Cloud Empire, and they are all oily and water...... No, no, they are all bastards of the scourge, we don't want to let them go, we want to eliminate harm for the people. Walk with Lao Tzu ......"
Bursts of cheers pierced the sky in the heavy rain, and in the entire heavenly city, the people in golden soft armor, purple brocade robes, and sharp swords in their hands were like groups of bandits walking through the city, and their targets were those magnificent courtyards, and everywhere they went, all the gold, silver and jewels were swept away, and all the beautiful girls let out terrible screams. The big nobles, the little nobles, and then the big rich merchants, all disappeared in this rain that purified the heavens and the earth...... An old monk wearing a piece of black cloth was suspended in such a world, and a small black pagoda in his hand frantically absorbed a trace of smoke emitted from the city, and he laughed wildly: "Okay, okay, such a dead person, the grievance of dying is the most suitable for Lao Tzu." The lightning bolts also seemed to have made enemies with him, and slashed at him frantically, but they did not harm him at all. Between heaven and earth, it was so strange and wonderful for a while.
