A roar suddenly sounded in the airship: "Go away! Let me do it!"
Wei Potian pushed the gunner away, sat on the shooting position himself, and then adjusted the muzzle to aim at a fleeing lieutenant colonel. Wei Potian was extremely dissatisfied that the gunner failed to hit two shots in a row just now. He has been eyeing this guy from the very beginning, how can he let him escape easily
However, when Wei Potian shot down, he deviated further from the target. At this time, the ground was full of gunpowder and fire, and in the already deep night, the vision was distorted, and the lieutenant colonel ran away in the blink of an eye, causing Wei Potian to beat his legs and curse.
Floating battleships are basically invincible in this kind of battlefield, and the heavy armor is difficult to penetrate even with an eagle strike. It was floating in the air, and several naval guns were still roaring, completely massacring the expeditionary force directly below.
The expeditionary forces all over the mountains and plains were fleeing. Wei Potian grabbed the entourage around him and shouted: "Catch them all, and don't let any one escape. Do you hear me?!"
The entourage smiled bitterly and said, "Master, we only have one hundred people, and we have to leave someone to watch over the floating ship."
Wei Potian snorted, the anger he had ignited after seeing the battlefield below finally calmed down a bit, he naturally knew that it was impossible to hunt down thousands of deserters with a hundred people in the wild, and said: "Then catch more deserters." For those who are alive, let the officers catch them!"
"yes!"
Following Wei Potian's order, the floating battleship began to descend rapidly. When it was a hundred meters above the ground, the elite guards of the Wei family grabbed the halyards and jumped out directly. Release the halyard at a height of twenty to thirty meters, and roll over when landing, dissipating all the force of the fall, and then jump up one after another, chasing after the rout.
Qianye stood on the town wall and gestured for his side to gather the team. At this time, all the soldiers under his command were exhausted and had no energy left to cooperate with the pursuit. If someone chased them out recklessly, they might be eaten in one bite.
The floating battleship slowed down, and finally hovered fifty meters in the air. Wei Potian jumped out of the cabin directly and hit the ground with a plop. Amidst the deafening bang, even the town wall of the town seemed to shake for a bit. In the billowing smoke and dust, there was only a flash of yellow light, and Wei Potian stood up as if nothing had happened, and walked towards Qianye with big strides.
All of a sudden, everyone in and outside the town was impressed by Wei Potian's unparalleled aura, except for Qianye. His nerves, which had been tense all day and night, suddenly relaxed, and he even wanted to laugh a little. With his night vision ability, he naturally saw that Wei Potian's face was a little abnormally pale. Fifty meters is a little high for any soldier who cannot lift into the air.
After a long distance, Wei Potian raised his throat and shouted, "Qianye, are you alright!?"
Qianye jumped off the town wall and said, "You are fine, how could something happen to me?"
Wei Potian suddenly had a bad feeling of being caught, but it was just a slight blush on his face, and then he strode up to Qianye as if nothing had happened, looked him up and down, and said loudly, "Look at you! The complexion, and the injuries all over the body, is this all right?"
"If you could have arrived one day earlier, none of this would have happened."
Wei Potian immediately scratched his messy hair, and said, "How can I expect this? If I can arrive on time, um... that's what I should do." He said this with a guilty conscience. In fact, this time he arrived almost late than the scheduled time. two hours.
Qianye's indifferent expression suddenly melted away like spring snow in the sun, and he said with a smile, "If I didn't know you would come, I wouldn't have persisted until now!"
"Sure enough, it's a brother!" After saying that, Wei Potian rushed forward and gave Qianye a big bear hug.
A guard of the Wei family emerged from the shadows and said, "Young master, some work has been caught, do you want to see it?"
Wei Potian showed a murderous look on his face, and said, "Okay! I'm going to see who is so bold as to touch my brother!"
After a while, more than a dozen lieutenants were pushed in front of Wei Potian, but the highest rank among these people was only a captain.
This number and level exceeded Wei Potian's expectations, and he immediately became angry, "That's all? What about those school officers? Don't tell me that several regiments are here, and then there is not even a school officer! Can you do it?" Can't even beat a school officer of the expeditionary army?"
The guard smiled bitterly and said, "Master, I asked just now, and they said that the proportion of officers killed in battle in the past two days was extremely high, and the casualties at the officer level even exceeded two-thirds. So it is quite impressive to be able to catch these people." Easy."
"Two-thirds!" Wei Potian was also taken aback by this number. He had been on the battlefield before, and the damage to this level means that one side has a suppressive individual strike capability.
The guard glanced at Qianye, with a hint of awe in his eyes, and said, "It is said that most of them died at the hands of your friend, young master."
Wei Potian turned his head to look at Qianye, and yelled strangely: "Okay, kid! This is better than me!"
Qianye just glanced at him, his expression clearly said, isn't it normal to be better than you? The despised Wei Shizi immediately began to brag about his great achievements unconvinced.
Qianye smiled, and listened quietly. With this young man of the Wei family who was a dandy most of the time by his side, even standing on the bloody battlefield, he couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed.
After Wei Potian had finished his oral addiction, he walked in front of those captives, and the smile on his face had completely disappeared. The captives were all kneeled on the ground and lined up.
Wei Potian walked from left to right, then from right to left, and finally stopped in front of a bearded captain with an aggressive face.
This officer was a tough one. Before Wei Potian could open his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and said, "This is the territory of the expeditionary army, and I am an active officer of the expeditionary army! Boy, I don't care if you are from the Wei family." Or some other noble family, I would like to advise you, don't mess around on the Evernight Continent, this is not a place for children to play house!"
Wei Potian folded his arms in front of his chest, with a calm expression on his face, he listened carefully to what he said, then nodded and said: "It makes sense." Then he shouted in a low voice: "Come on, give me this guy Dead!"
Hearing the sound, a guard next to him immediately stepped forward, drew out a pistol and pressed it against the captain's head, and pulled the trigger after seeing Wei Potian nodding slightly. With a bang, the captain's head burst open immediately, and brains and blood sprayed all over the people on the left and right. The captives stirred for a moment, and then fell silent.
Wei Potian still had no expression on his face, he took a step and stood in front of a lieutenant next to him.
The lieutenant immediately said repeatedly: "I say! I can say anything!"
"But I'm not interested in listening!" Wei Potian said coldly, only raised his hand to make a gesture, and walked towards the next person.
The guards of the Wei family stepped up and shot the lieutenant's head off.
Wei Potian passed several people this time, and finally stopped in front of a very young second lieutenant. After staring at him for a long time, he said slowly: "The rank of the expeditionary army is nothing to me. Fool children."
The young second lieutenant's face turned pale, and his clenched teeth trembled slightly, for fear that his extra voice would cause death.
Then Wei Potian said: "You, tell me, what happened tonight?"
The second lieutenant immediately told everything he knew. In fact, he had no access to the many secrets behind it, and the real purpose of the cross-border attack on the mine belonging to the tenth division's defense area could not be conveyed to the second lieutenant's level. The most useful information he uttered was nothing more than the number sequence of the unit he belonged to, the time when the army was mobilized, and the superficial excuse for his actions.
Wei Potian nodded, then pointed to an officer next to him who kept winking at the second lieutenant, and said without any fluctuation in his tone: "I don't like this guy, so let's kill him too."
The guards of the Wei family stepped forward without hesitation and shot.
As a result, all the officers of the expeditionary force were silent, and no one dared to make any small moves.
Qianye stood by and watched, this was the first time he saw Wei Potian showing a decisive, ruthless side. The eldest son of the Wei family, who was always careless in his memory, but still innocent in heart, was able to stand out early. It was not just talent.
After dealing with these captives, the guards of the Wei family who went to hunt down the deserters also returned one after another. Next, Wei Potian assigned guards to help clean up the battlefield and rescue the wounded, while he himself led Qianye to patrol around. When he saw the surviving young seeds, especially the two brothers and sisters Wu Shiqing and Wu Shiying, an old man from the Wei family who followed Wei Potian also showed a very surprised expression.
The old man waited for Wei Potian and Qianye to leave the place where the seeds were placed, and then said: "This is no ordinary seed! No wonder Wu Zhengnan would put all his eggs in one basket and refuse to let them live no matter what."
Wei Potian wondered: "The seeds are also different?"
The old man of the Wei family stroked his beard and said: "Master, you see that there are more than a dozen front-line soldiers in this batch of seeds. That's all right, but if my old eyes are not blind, these young people's original force light is different, obviously They have different abilities. Since they are selected as seeds, it means that they are all naturally generated after the nodes are ignited, rather than the changes in the force attributes caused by practicing secret exercises. In other words, these people are all Bloodline seeds!"
"Bloodline seeds? So many?" Wei Potian understood after hearing this. He looked at Qianye, knowing that Qianye might not understand this kind of thing related to the deep mystery of the force, so he gave a brief explanation.
The so-called bloodline seeds are not important in terms of their abilities. There are many ways for the dark race to strengthen their reproduction, shorten the growth time of each generation, and then through the screening and accumulation of countless samples to enhance their bloodline ability little by little. Perhaps in a few hundred years, a whole new subspecies will emerge with special abilities.
It is also because of this that the value of bloodline seeds is far higher than that of ordinary seeds, and it is not comparable to slaves. Generally, a caravan with one or two bloodline seeds is considered a big deal. It is quite rare for more than a dozen bloodline seeds to appear at once like this, and they are all young people.
The old man of the Wei family said: "These seeds are not easy to come by. It is impossible to collect so many in the first division of Wuzheng South. Perhaps several divisions in the surrounding area participated in the formation of a caravan of this size. Uh, If this is the case, according to the information we have obtained, the value of the goods traded by the dark race to Wu Zhengnan is really too small. From the old man's point of view, there is probably another secret agreement between them."
Wei Potian immediately shouted: "Check! No matter what secret agreement there is, check it out for me!"
"Master, this..." The old man looked at Qianye, hesitant to speak.
