When Chu Tian walked up to the hillside with his swollen face covered, he immediately saw a fire dragon slowly swimming towards him from a distance. This should be cavalrymen holding torches. At least there are thousands of people, and the scale is really huge. Small.
Cavalry
Did they kill them directly like this? This is too stupid, it is no different from sending someone to die!
When thousands of elite cavalry arrived at the entrance of Qinglong Trail, a large number of snakes and scorpions rushed out of Qingling.
The Qingzhou cavalry seemed to know snakes and scorpions very well. This kind of monster is very dangerous, especially the poisonous fog that can be controlled freely. If it attacks nearby villages and towns, it will definitely cause very tragic casualties.
"The whole army obeys orders!"
"We must stop the beast tide here!"
"Otherwise, once they spread, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
One viper is enough to poison a small team. If the vipers are concentrated, they are still relatively easy to deal with. Once the vipers are scattered, the poisonous fog will be everywhere. How to distinguish? What's more, it's dark now, and the naked eye can't distinguish the poisonous fog.
"Let the arrows! Let me shoot the arrows!"
"Three hundred steps away! Kill them all!"
The Qingzhou cavalry gave up the cavalry's most advantageous rushing tactics, and took a longbow in their hands to snake into the air at a forty-five degree, and the drain was densely rained on the snakes and scorpions.
Pooh!
Several snakes and scorpions were shot by arrows.
The snakes and scorpions were furious, stopped fighting for food, and swarmed up to launch a counterattack against the cavalry. The Qingzhou cavalry didn't dare to be careless, and shot arrows while retreating, and the rain of arrows was densely scattered. However, this attack method was obviously not very effective against snakes and scorpions.
Firstly, there are so many snakes and scorpions that they can't be killed.
Second, the shell of the snake and scorpion is very strong and can effectively resist loss.
Three times, the snakes and scorpions were shrouded in poisonous fog, and with the cover of night, the shooter couldn't aim and could only shoot blindly. Under such circumstances, it is not bad if ten arrows can hit one arrow.
A large black and thick poisonous mist rolled and spread, like a mighty tsunami, covering the cavalry.
"hateful!"
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
The cavalry leader waved his sword and shouted, and immediately pulled the reins and began to turn around, and the rest of the cavalry began to retreat. At this time, a strong wind blew over and accelerated the spread of the poisonous mist. In an instant, three or four hundred cavalry were engulfed by the poisonous mist.
The poisonous mist of the snake and scorpion beast is hard to defend against. Even if it touches the skin, it can penetrate the body along the pores. It only takes a very small dose to paralyze a monk!
"ah!"
"I can't move!"
The cavalry collapsed on the ground one after another, no matter whether they were men or horses, their bodies twitched, and they gradually lost the power to resist.
Those brutal snakes and scorpions pounced on them, shredded their bodies with powerful scorpion pincers, and began to feast on their flesh and blood. The most frightening thing about this kind of killing is that the poisonous mist can paralyze people, but they don't completely lose consciousness. Those who fell into the snake and scorpion beast can only watch their bodies being torn apart and eaten away.
The shrill scream made the other cavalry feel terrified.
"Damn beast!" The cavalry saw the struggling and howling soldiers all over the ground, his eyes were red with anger: "Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill them all for me!"
The cavalry once again drew their bows and shot arrows.
The snakes and scorpions had hunted enough food and were about to enjoy it, but these annoying cavalry repeatedly harassed and attacked, which undoubtedly completely angered the snakes and scorpions. Therefore, the snake and scorpion beast completely dropped the food it got, and attacked the cavalry again.
Snakes and scorpions live in groups and have a very obvious attack strategy. After leaving the narrow green dragon path, they immediately split into several groups to attack the cavalry from different directions.
Night is the best camouflage for snakes and scorpions.
The snake and scorpion were covered in pitch black and covered in a dark green mist, and it was impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye. When the cavalry concentrated their strength on attacking the snake in front of them, they didn't know that two snakes had already circled to the left and right to launch a pincer attack.
"Ah! I'm poisoned!"
"Help, the left-wing monster is attacking!"
"Help, monsters have also appeared on the right wing!"
One by one the cavalrymen fell off their horses and fell to the ground. There were constant screams in the dark night, and the rest of the cavalrymen were completely confused. Unfortunately, they all died tragically.
"escape!"
"Run away!"
Thousands of cavalry came to rescue, only seven or eight hundred escaped.
The rest of the cavalry were killed by the poison of the snake and scorpion, and they all became food in the mouth of the snake and scorpion. The snakes and scorpions dragged all the human and horse corpses into the canyon, and the poisonous fog also receded with the snakes and scorpions and quickly returned the same way. Except for bloodstains and broken armor, weapons and arrows scattered all over the scene, there was not even a trace left.
Shen Bingyu and Chu Tian stood on the hillside, so they witnessed the whole process, but there was nothing they could do to help.
It really is a terrifying monster!
This group of snakes and scorpions are entrenched in the green hills, and human mining activities cannot be carried out at all. No wonder that fat man would sell so many high-quality resources at a low price.
Shen Bingyu frowned and said in a low voice: "Need to notify Zhongzhou to send reinforcements?"
"Didn't you see the miserable appearance of the Qingzhou Army? The fighters of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce are very precious, and they must not be compromised here." Chu Tian sighed, and said a little depressed: "I wanted to keep a low profile this time, who knows going to be in trouble."
"what to do?"
"The poison in your body hasn't been completely removed." Chu Tian said to Shen Bingyu: "We can only go to the city once."
Shen Bingyu seemed to have forgotten what happened just now, and said blankly: "Go to the main city?"
"Judging from the situation of Qinglong Path, it is not a matter of a day or two for snakes, scorpions and beasts to occupy Qingling. I think Qingzhou City is more anxious than us. For the current plan, we can only take a little action and help them!"
As Chu Tian said.
Qingzhou City is more anxious than anyone else!
Tens of thousands of snakes and scorpions are active in Qingling!
These snakes and scorpions did not appear in the active areas of humans before. In the past few months, for some unknown reason, thousands of snakes and scorpions flocked to the Qinglong path, and even occupied the Qinglong path.
A road runs through Qingling and connects the east and west of Qingzhou. Qinglong Trail is a crucial transportation hub! If such an important channel is blocked, not only will all mining activities be stopped, but it will have a negative impact on Qingzhou, which can be guessed without even thinking about it.
Naturally, Qingzhou was extremely anxious, and assembled troops several times to open up the Qinglong Path, but they failed every time. Instead of destroying the snakes and scorpions, they let the snakes and scorpions feast for several meals.
Such a group of snakes and scorpions caused Qingzhou to lose 40,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers in it!
This is why when Leizhou encountered a catastrophe, Zhongzhou, Nanzhou, and Qingzhou could have been directly rescued, but Wu Anjun's letter only asked Nanzhou and Zhongzhou for support, and Qingzhou was not mentioned at all.
Because Wang Cheng also knows that Qingzhou is hard to protect himself, so how can he have the leisure to take care of Leizhou's affairs
When Chutian arrived in Qingzhou City, the entire main city was in a state of depression.
The tragic bloody battle last night caused Qingzhou to lose more than 2,000 elite soldiers, which made things worse for Qingzhou City. How could the people of Qingzhou be happy
There has been no news from Dongqingzhou for two months.
East Qingzhou is not bordered by other parts of Nanxia Kingdom, and it relies entirely on the Qinglong Trail to transport supplies and goods. It is no wonder that no supplies have been provided for two or three months now! Qingzhou’s resources can’t be transported to Qingzhou, they are all rotten in their hands, mines closed down, factories closed, workers lost their income, the economy was hit hard, people had no food to eat, and they didn’t rebel!
Yu Laowu hurriedly ran to Chutian: "President, we found it!"
"Really?" Chu Tian frowned: "Take me there!"
Ten minutes later, Chu Tian walked into the mansion of a wealthy businessman.
I saw a group of ferocious giant sharks smashing wildly inside, all the guards in the mansion were beaten to the ground, and all the servants and maids squatted on the ground with pale faces, not even daring to breathe.
"Get out." Boss Yu smashed the door with a fat guy like a pig, and fell heavily on the ground. He drew a bright long knife from his waist and put it on the fat man's neck: "President , when I found him, he was about to pack up his things and run away, so I could just chop him off with one knife!"
What the hell are these people!
How dare they attack the Shen family's mansion, the Shen family is a famous family in Qingzhou after all!
"Who the hell are you guys! How dare you commit crimes in the main city in broad daylight!" The fat man Shen Yuan was terrified, and when he raised his bruised and swollen face, he immediately saw Chu Tian and Shen Bingyu walking in: "You, you... not dead!"
Chu Tianhan said with a cold face: "I am not dead, are you very disappointed!"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Fatty finally understood why these people wanted to beat him up. "What happened last night was an accident, and I also lost a dozen of my subordinates!"
Chu Tian snorted coldly: "Really?"
"The hunting time of that group of monsters is not regular, and sometimes they don't show up for three to five days. I didn't know that it would be so unlucky. They just appeared in large numbers when I was looking at the mine!"
"Hmph!" Chu Tian walked up to Fatty, "You know that the Qinglong Path is extremely dangerous to be occupied by monsters, but you didn't tell me, how can you explain this?"
nonsense!
If there is no group of monsters, who is not good at selling my mines, but why sell them to you at a low price? Since it is purchased at a low price, it is natural to bear this risk.
"Calm your anger! Brother Yu, calm your anger!" The fat man said with a coy smile, "It is true that Qinglong Path will be temporarily suspended, but you must know that Qingzhou will not ignore it, nor will Nanxia Kingdom. It will be a matter of time before this path is opened, then At that time, the mine in Brother Yu's hands will be worth a lot of money, even if he doesn't mine it himself, he can make a lot of money if he sells it!"
"Even so, you are wise to see the danger of the mine but you don't want to tell the truth, which almost killed us. It's really hateful, call me!"
The members of the giant shark gang punched and kicked again.
"Stop it, stop it!" the fat man wailed, "I'll give you another thirty million gold coins cheaper, and it's considered an apology fee for Brother Yu!"
The mine with the lowest valuation of 360 million was sold to Chutian for the last 150 million. This price is indeed very low.
As Fatty said, Qinglong Path will be opened sooner or later. Qingzhou resource reserve is the first among the eight states. If Qingzhou resources stop producing, it will have an impact on the national strength of the entire Nanxia Kingdom. This will never be allowed to happen.
Chu Tian waved his hand impatiently: "This fat pig makes people upset just looking at it, lock him up!"
"Forgive me, forgive me!"
Yu Laowu dragged the terrified and howling fat pig away.
Shen Bingyu was a little displeased: "You just let him go like this?"
"It's just a small person, he probably doesn't really want to harm us." Chu Tian suddenly paused when he said this, "Also, I have a plan, maybe this fat pig can help."
"what's the plan?"
"The Qinglong Trail has been blocked for three months, and there is no sign of it being opened up to now. The Qingling beast disaster is threatening the city again. This has caused the resource production in Qingzhou to drop sharply, and the prices of many mines and forest farms have plummeted. I want to be like this fat man, There are not a few businessmen who want to sell their property and get away."
"You mean, we take the opportunity to acquire resources?"
"clever!"
"We didn't bring much money with us."
"Can't you earn money if you don't have money?" Chu Tian chuckled: "Let's go, let's go to the Hou Mansion!"
This Aoki Hou is really useless, even a few small snakes and scorpions can't handle it!
