A team of more than 20 people advanced along the river, and in front of Hong Yu were two veteran guides, and this was his first patrol mission.

The purpose of the competition between the various clans on the Yuan Yellow Star is to grab territory, so that when the Yuan Pulp Storm descends in the future, they can collect some more Spirit Yuan Pulp.

The small river that Hong Yu is patrolling now is part of the border between the human race and the natives in Ningyuan City.

Every five miles by the river, there will be a silver-white metal array pile with a bowl mouth thick and more than a person high. The function of the array piles is not just to mark the boundary, when the Yuan Pulp Storm comes, these array piles will echo with the formation core in Ningyuan City, and open a huge light film in the Terran territory, covering the territory, used to collect the spirit essence pulp. Only a complete array pile can ensure that not a single drop of the Spirit Yuan Pulp is collected.

The great war between the various ethnic groups is actually used to fight for the border line. The victorious side of a major battle will be able to push the border line into the opponent's territory quite a bit. The losing side may not be able to fight back for the time being, but it will also accumulate strength for the next battle.

However, in reality, the boundary line of "tacit consensus" can only be maintained by one's own strong force, and one should not expect the other side to be very "self-disciplined" to abide by it.

From time to time, there will be patrols of their own teams, destroying the opponent's stakes, and then pulling up their own stakes and moving hundreds of steps within the opponent's boundaries.

This kind of thing often leads to skirmishes at the border, but often it is just a fight between patrols of each other.

Whatever the natives did, the Terrans often did.

Hong Yu was called up early this morning, because yesterday evening, the formation core in Ningyuan City sensed that a formation pile by the river had been destroyed, and there were indigenous formation piles deep into their territory.

Hong Yu led people to inspect along the river vigilantly, and his soldiers were scolding: "These bastards are natives! In the last battle, if it wasn't for the last big battle, they suddenly dispatched a large number of regimental commander-level Bai Yuxiao, how could they win! They advanced thirty miles into our territory, and they were still not satisfied, and they were still looking for fault all day long!"

"Let's meet a native patrol team, kill dozens of them, and let out a bad breath!"

The veteran in front of him gestured to everyone: "This is it!"

The place where the stakes were supposed to appear turned into a large crater, surrounded by scorched marks, which were left by the natives when they destroyed the stakes.

Each formation pile is related to the formation core in Ningyuan City, and it also has a defensive formation enchantment, which is not so easy to break.

If you fail to destroy the formation in a short period of time, it will attract the other party's retaliation, and the gains outweigh the losses. As a result, all sides often only have time to destroy one of the enemy's pillars. Actually, this kind of action really doesn't make much sense, but everyone enjoys it. Not for anything else, just to give the opponent a little "unpleasant".

Two hundred paces away from the destroyed stake, they found the native's stake.

The natives' stake looked very rough, just an unknown tree, laughing like a stake, with some spars and horns stuck in it. There are also some unknown patterns painted with bright paints.

"My lord, give the order to attack!" the veterans gritted their teeth, preparing to destroy the stake and relocate themselves. They had already thought that they must go three hundred steps deeper into the indigenous territory!

Hong Yu has already studied the formation piles on the road, and this formation has a pre-requisite suppression effect. In other words, placing a formation stake in someone else's territory will not have any effect, and will be suppressed by the opponent's formation.

So it is necessary to destroy the enemy's, and then arrange your own.

But he looked at the soldiers who were in an offensive posture with some strange eyes: "In the past, you all used offensive means to destroy the enemy's formation?"

"Or else?" the soldiers wondered, as every patrol squad did.

"Haven't you ever thought about cracking the formation?"

"My lord, we're just a patrol team, how can we be equipped with a rare Star Array Division?"

Hong Yu smiled: "No wonder you are so inefficient. ”

"What do you mean, sir?"

Hong Yu waved his hand: "That's it for today, go back with me." ”

"Just going back?" the soldiers were in an uproar: "Don't you teach those natives a lesson?"

Hong Yu smiled mysteriously: "You will understand tomorrow." ”

The soldiers were very unwilling, and the indigenous stake was stuck there, like a wooden thorn in their finger, and it was uncomfortable.

Hong Yu didn't explain, the military order was like a mountain, and the soldiers had to follow him back.

......

"Yun Jiuxiao, what are you doing!" As soon as the communication formation was opened, a voice roared at Yun Jiuxiao: "It's just to break an indigenous formation pile, and by the way, push our formation pile two hundred steps forward to take revenge, this little thing can't be done? If you can't do it, just go home, let the defense area out, and our military department will take over!"

Before Yun Jiuxiao could refute, the other party had already cut off the communication.

Yun Jiuxiao gritted his teeth and scolded: "Ding Ying, you bastard, the military department is a group of fools who can only fall into each other!"

But Yun Jiuxiao is also curious: what is going on?

The order from He Yuanda was to train Hong Yu as much as possible, and in accordance with this instruction, Yun Jiuxiao would send Hong Yu to carry out patrol missions so quickly.

But this time the task is indeed not difficult, the natives are fighting with the Spirit Race in another direction, and they must not start a war with the Terrans at the same time, so at most, the patrols of the two sides will encounter, and there will be no danger to Hong Yu.

But why didn't you complete the task?

......

After all, the military department is stronger in terms of combat strength, so in addition to the four major defense areas in Ningyuan City, the central part is also controlled by the military department, which includes the core of the formation.

Ding Ying has been staring at Hong Yu, Hong Yu has made the military department disgraced, and has seriously offended Lord Gu Yuncang. Ding Ying knew very well that if he could fight Hong Yu, Lord Gu Yuncang would definitely be very happy, and then his future would become bright.

Although it was only a regular task today, Ding Ying also paid attention to it.

Originally, he didn't think there was any chance, after all, Hong Yu had made such great achievements, which was enough to prove his ability. Even if you're a newcomer, you can't go wrong with such a simple task.

But he never imagined that the opportunity would come so inadvertently!

I waited until the evening, and the formation core sensing dao had not yet been restored. It was obviously too late in time, so Ding Ying was overjoyed, and without hesitation, he connected to the transmission formation, scolded Yun Jiuxiao for a while, and then returned to his barracks in a hurry, got into the secret room, and reported this matter to Lord Gu Yuncang!

Gu Yuncang did not warn him to pay attention to uniting the human race first or anything like that, but praised him greatly, and finally hinted to him that Hong Yu failed in his first mission, and he could publicize it in Ningyuan City, so that people could see that the so-called pride of the sky, His Excellency Hong Yu, turned out to be exposed on the real battlefield, and became a soft egg, unable to complete even the most basic tasks.

Ding Ying was overjoyed, and felt that he was still at the top of the mountain! He was greatly encouraged, and immediately went out to arrange for people to spread the news.

Soon, all kinds of unfavorable rumors about Hong Yu spread in Ningyuan City.

When Hong Yu came back, the rumors had already spread to the defense area of Xingmingdao, and as soon as he walked into the city gate, the soldiers on duty said in a deep voice: "My lord, after General Yun asks you to come back, go see him immediately." ”

Hong Yu nodded and asked his soldiers to go back to the camp and go to Yun Jiuxiao by himself.

The first thing Yun Jiuxiao said when they met was to ask with concern: "What's going on?"

Hong Yu smiled: "No, one array pile is not enough, I'm afraid of startling the snake." ”

"Not enough?" Yun Jiuxiao was puzzled: "The arrangement of the array pile is very simple, as long as it is inserted in the ground, the formation will be connected by itself, and there will be no accidents at all, how can it not be enough?"

Hong Yu shook his head: "It's not that simple, you give me another thirty array piles, and you will understand tomorrow." ”

"Thirty!" Yun Jiuxiao was startled: "What are you going to do?"

The river was only a hundred miles long, and thirty of them was more than the entire river border.

Hong Yu smiled mysteriously: "Trust me!"

......

Hong Yu walked to his barracks with a storage ring, and sighed in his heart, it was better to have a backer. If it weren't for the fact that he had a future father-in-law, I am afraid that Yun Jiuxiao would not have handed over the thirty array piles to himself so easily.

When he entered the barracks, the soldiers had not yet rested, and stood up together: "My lord, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd? There has been a rumor of madness outside, saying that you are a soft egg, and you can't even complete the most basic tasks! We know that you are not, but you have to let us understand what you are for, right?"

"Yes, my lord, you tell us, we will not spread the word. ”

Hong Yu still smiled mysteriously: "Sleep all of them, and you will understand tomorrow." ”

......

"Still let Hong Yu's team go?" Ding Ying's spit almost sprayed on Yun Jiuxiao's face: "They came back yesterday without doing anything, what are they going to do today? This is Yuan Huangxing, this is the most tragic battlefield, not for people to come to the mountains and rivers!"

Yun Jiuxiao was very annoyed when he saw Ding Ying's face: "I have my own opinions!

Yun Jiuxiao was also secretly annoyed, not knowing what this guy wanted to do.

At this time, Hong Yu had already set off, he let go of his powerful spiritual sense, and led the soldiers to advance quickly to avoid danger along the way, and it took two hours to reach the river in a normal state, and it only took half an hour.
