The red clouds are rolling and snow is falling all over the sky.
After brewing for several days, the snow finally fell overwhelmingly.
In just one night, Qingqiu City was surrounded by a blanket of white snow, and the snow was more than three feet deep. Large tracts of snowflakes fell on the snow, making a dull sound of "Puff".
There was no grand ceremony of going on stage to pay homage to the general, and there was no scene where the God-Emperor gave a speech to boost morale. After Wu Tie spent several days and issued hundreds of official documents urging the transportation of supplies and supporting soldiers, he took the Invincible Army as the skeleton. The newly formed legions were vigorously developing towards the western battlefield.
A few days ago, Wu Tie slaughtered the entire Gongdian Yamen in a majestic manner. This incident shocked everyone.
Many civil servants wanted to avenge Situ Wei and the murdered Gongdian officials, but Wu Tie's bloody methods were really terrifying. These civil servants who used to be boastful and unshakable could disturb the changes in the court. I really didn't have the guts to take the initiative to stir up trouble.
Everyone waited with bated breath for news from the real high-ranking officials in the court.
However, Linghu Qingqing remained silent, as if he didn't know anything.
Gongyang Sanlu didn't say a word, as if the killed Situ Wei and so many officials in Gongdian were not his disciples and disciples.
Ever since, everyone knew that it was impossible to embarrass 'An Wang Huo Xiong' this time.
Ever since, under the intimidation of Wu Tie's raised butcher knife, and the intimidation of the Criminal Law Department of the Military Department that had been expanded a hundred times, the civil and military official system of Qingqiu Divine Kingdom was operating with unprecedented efficiency.
Countless baggage was carried out from the warehouse, carefully counted, and distributed to the newly formed support corps. All the newly formed corps had more than doubled their usual training intensity and were ready to be sent to the battlefield at any time.
Wu Tie passed through the space gate and crossed one prefecture after another. Everywhere he arrived, he mobilized all the regular troops in the prefecture and county cities and let the newly formed militiamen garrison in the cities and towns.
As a result, one and a half months after setting off from Qingqiu City, when Wu Tie arrived in Langzhou, the closest place to the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms, Wu Tie's army was dozens of times larger than when it set off, and the giant transport ships used to transport the troops alone exceeded One hundred thousand.
Thirty-six Four Spirit warships lined up in a row, dozens of miles beyond the huge fleet, serving as the vanguard in front.
Dozens of miles behind the Siling battleship, tens of thousands of standard battleships formed a square salvo array, approaching in neat order like a wall.
The huge transport ship is guarded by a larger number of battleships of different sizes arrayed up, down, left, right and behind.
On the deck of every huge transport ship, there are soldiers arrayed. Huge mana is continuously injected into the body of a respected general, stimulating the blood vessels of these generals to bulge, and their bodies swell to several times their normal height, ready to explode at any time. Fight.
The huge fleet stretched for hundreds of miles, smashing through the thick dark clouds in the sky and countless snow flakes, advancing towards the west with a sinister atmosphere.
The biting cold wind raged between the sky and the earth. The wind swept across the earth, and the snow on the ground turned into rapid snow waves that rushed close to the ground.
This is Langzhou, the state in the west of Qingqiu Divine Kingdom closest to the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms.
Because of the existence of the Three Kingdoms battlefield, Langzhou has been governed by a huge military garrison for countless years with few civilians. Most of the large and small cities in Langzhou are military cities, and the people in the cities have been military households for generations. They are responsible for farming matters and providing supplies nearby for the battlefields of the Three Kingdoms.
As soon as Wu Tie's large group entered the border of Langzhou, they saw black smoke pillars of varying thicknesses rising into the sky.
In the void ahead, hundreds of small, extremely fast scout flying boats, no more than three to five feet in length, were escaping rapidly.
The scouts of Dawei and Dawu had already discovered Wu Tie's troops. They sent back the news that reinforcements from the Qingqiu Divine Kingdom had arrived. The military leaders of Dawei and Dawu were also decisive. They directly ordered to start burning all the troops in Langzhou. Military city.
"Strengthen the wall and clear the country... This is what we should do, but unfortunately, they did it." Wu Tie stood on the bow of a four-spirit battleship, looking coldly at a large city hundreds of miles away that had been wrapped in flames.
The city was nearly a thousand miles in circumference, with flames rising and thick smoke billowing, and the cold wind blowing in the face brought a strong smell of burnt food.
Given the size of this military city, the amount of food stored in the city's granaries must be astronomical.
What broke into Langzhou was only a guerrilla fleet separated by Dawei and Dawu. They were highly mobile and powerful, but their transportation capabilities were inevitably stretched.
According to the intelligence returned by the military's lurking spies on the spot, after the two guerrilla fleets broke through each military city, they immediately plundered the population, especially those military households who were proficient in various skills of farming fields and raising livestock. It was their first target for robbery.
The limited transport capacity was used to transport people with professional skills. The two armies had no time to process the food stored in these military cities.
Wu Tie came back too quickly. In just over a month, the fleets of the two countries barely moved all the military households in Langzhou. This was the limit of what they could do.
Therefore, when Wu Tie's large fleet appeared, the garrisons of the two countries immediately set fire to it.
Above the thick flames and smoke, over the military city hundreds of miles away, there were more than a dozen medium-sized warships with full firepower. The battleship's main guns, secondary guns, and hundreds of light cannons were bombarding the city below with all their strength.
The arrow towers were reduced to ashes, the battle forts collapsed. The solid and heavy buildings in the city were reduced to nothing in the strong light, and sections of the towering and heavy city walls were blown to pieces.
Deep underground in the city, the base of the city defense array was also blown to pieces by artillery fire.
"Head of the Xiang family... According to His Majesty's wishes, your Xiang family will have to shed their skin this time even if you don't die." Wu Tie looked at Xiang Zhan, who was standing three steps behind him: "At least, at least, your Xiang family's 'King of Chu' Don’t even think about keeping the title of king.”
"I beg for mercy for you. Your Xiang family's current titles, titles, and even your heads are only temporarily stored." Wu Tie pointed at Xiang Zhan: "Don't let your majesty down, and don't let him down." It makes me feel that... you are really a bunch of trash who can only harm Paoze."
Wu Tie added in his heart - 'Actually, you are just a bunch of trash'!
But of course, you can't say that, at least you can't say it openly and openly... Although the generals of the Xiang family have inherent shortcomings, these guys are still very useful if they are used well.
Xiang Zhan made a fist with his right hand, hit his heart hard, and then let out a low cry.
From the fast transport ship following behind, small speedboats no more than twelve feet long flew out like light swallows. Xiang Zhan, Xiang Tuo, Xiang Bao and other generals of the Xiang family jumped into the air one after another. In groups of three or five, they jumped onto small speedboats.
Each of these small speed boats has twelve giant soldiers.
Three or five generals of the Xiang family in the Tibetan Realm, coupled with giant divine soldiers who are not afraid of death and do not feel sad even if they die, drive special fast flying boats to attack and assassinate. In Wu Tie's opinion, this is the most suitable thing for the Xiang family. means of combat.
This group of guys is suitable to be assassins, or... they are suitable to be among thousands of troops, alone in the chaos and take the enemy's general's head!
They are suitable for raids, assassinations, storming enemy camps, causing chaos, and even serving as bait to set up various tactical traps... The only thing the Xiang family is not suitable for is commanding thousands of troops and fighting the enemy in an upright battle formation.
They don't have this talent point.
They shouldn't unite the army to fight.
Nearly a thousand clippers galloped towards the military city ahead with a faint shadow. These were specially-made clippers that pursued extreme speed. A distance of hundreds of miles, but only a dozen breaths of time, he had already rushed to the vicinity of the opponent's warship.
Looking at the opponent's flag with blood stripes on a black background, it is a squadron of the Great Martial Kingdom.
The other party's commander didn't know if his brain was full of muscle knots. A dozen medium-sized battleships, no more than a hundred feet long, were overwhelming a small squadron with two or three Tibetan generals stationed there. They actually gave an order. Next, a battle formation was formed to greet the Clippers, which was personally commanded by Xiang Zhan.
There are more than a thousand fast boats, and each of them has three or five generals of the Xiang family who are in the Tibetan Realm. These are thousands of experts in the Tiangang Realm.
Facing a dozen medium-sized warships that had not yet had time to activate their defensive formations, Xiang Bao and other young men from the Xiang family jumped up. Hundreds of young generals from the Xiang family were separated by several miles, and the immortal soldiers in their hands simultaneously sprayed out like a tsunami. The sword light and sword energy.
With just one blow, more than a dozen medium-sized battleships instantly shattered, and all the soldiers on the battleships were strangled with one blow. Only the commander with the highest cultivation level, who was probably the divine fetus with the 300% Dao Mark fused to him, escaped in panic, covered in blood.
Just after escaping less than 300 feet away, a deep sneer came. Xiang Tuo, with a distorted face and a ghostly face, appeared in front of the general like a ghost, grabbed him by the neck, and then threw him gently to the ground.
There was a loud noise, and a large crater with a diameter of more than two hundred feet appeared on the ground.
The general of the Great Martial God Kingdom had been thrown... completely missing, not even a slightly larger fragment was left behind.
Wu Tie's voice came from afar: "Master Xiang, please save some lives... I know that you are angry in your hearts, but, alive, alive, I want to know what is going on in the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms. Are the trapped soldiers there? Dead or alive..."
"Also, how are the enemies of Lang State distributed? In the past month or so, they have also invaded several states around Lang State. Their marching route and other things are still alive!"
Wu Tie shook his head and waved his hand.
Lao Bai, who was dressed in an extremely exquisite suit and had reached the quality of a Nine-Refined Immortal Weapon, walked over from the side with a high air: "Don't worry, this little thing will be done properly."
Lao Bai's face was flushed, as if he was drunk, and his voice was trembling when he spoke to Wu Tie.
Today's Lao Bai is no longer the poor rat man who struggled to survive in the underground world with his children and grandchildren... Now he is the commander of the scout battalion of the expeditionary corps under King An.
In these years in Sanlian City, Lao Bai has gathered countless underground rat tribes.
Wu Tie purchased countless rat prisoners of war from the Demon Suppressing City, and these rat men were also handed over to Lao Bai's control.
Wu Tie also gave them a copy of the "Phantom Demon Treasure" that was specially trained by the royal secret spies of the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty. If you practice this technique to a small level, you can transform into invisible phantoms, come in and out silently, and leave no traces. Although he has no fighting power, his escape speed is extremely fast, so fast that it can scare people to death.
The rat people seem to have special talents in the cultivation of "Phantom Demon Treasure".
In more than a year, many elites among Lao Bai's rat people have mastered the "Phantom Demon Treasure" to a very sophisticated level. On the battlefield, they are even more elusive than the elite scouts in the army. , becoming more and more invisible.
"Lao Bai, go and be careful!" Wu Tie warned Lao Bai cautiously: "Just inquire about the information, and don't conflict with the enemy unless absolutely necessary."
Lao Bai nodded vigorously, saluted Wu Tie in a decent manner, then turned around and blended into the air.
Wu Tie's eyes were in a trance. If he hadn't been staring at Lao Bai, it would have been extremely difficult for him to find out how Lao Bai left. Combined with the talent of the Rat Man, the power of this "Phantom Magic Treasure" is really a bit sensational.
Slender, petite, but extremely flexible figures emerged from the battleships. As they ran wildly on the deck, their figures quickly or slowly merged into the wind, and then completely disappeared.
These rat men shuttled silently in the flowing wind, surrounded by the extremely cold and biting wind, but their hearts were as hot as Lao Bai.
Even in the underground world, the rat race is the most despicable, an unlucky race that has been discriminated against and enslaved by countless powerful races.
But here at Wutie, they felt respected.
Wu Tie told them seriously that they would be the best scouts in the world, and they could even become the best assassins in the future.
For the first time, the rat people discovered that they actually had such... value!
Yes, value.
They are no longer 'thieves' or 'parasites' in the eyes of those powerful ethnic groups. They are also valuable, and of great value to Wu Tie, a beneficial ethnic group!
Wu Tie even set aside a large area of his own fiefdom specifically for the rat race to thrive.
It is a paradise where you can bathe in sunshine and rain, it is extremely fertile, and the air is filled with the fragrance of honey.
Wu Tie even promised that in the future, he could confer official positions on the rat people, and even... if there was a chance, he could knight the rat people.
What else can be said
For the sake of the 'great King An', we can only fight tooth and nail!
This time, Wu Tie's expeditionary regiment scout camp had 300,000 rat scouts alone.
Three hundred thousand rat scouts who have practiced the "Phantom Demon Treasure" and are armed to the teeth with various tailor-made sophisticated equipment.
Wu Tie is looking forward to their performance.
"Master Xiang, take the people as the vanguard and clear out all the enemies you can kill along the way. If you encounter a large group, immediately send a warning to the rear."
Wu Tie issued the order again.
As mentioned before, these guys from the Xiang family should not unite the army in battle. Their value does not lie in commanding large armies and facing decisive battles.
