Song Zining's achievements can be described as brilliant, beating many dark viscounts in several battles. However, this kind of record is not normal. Yongye is not an upper-level continent, so siege and looting are of little significance. Why does a small city like Heiliu, which is poor in resources, attract such a large army.
The intention of the dark race side is easy to understand. Luther's water-grinding tactic is obviously to capture the generals alive, because in a big battlefield, there is no absolute advantage, and it is much more difficult to capture a general than to kill him . In the eyes of the superiors in the Yongye camp, except for the strong, they are cannon fodder, and they don't feel bad about how many cannon fodder die.
Song Zining's most recent battle was his bodyguard, which was composed entirely of women, but its combat power was no less than that of the generals of the main army of the empire. However, behind such glamorous rumors, what Qianye saw was extremely dangerous, which meant that under the continuous offensive, Song Zining's cards were being turned up one by one.
Now Luther received a steady stream of reinforcements, and instead of reducing the number of troops after successive battles, they fought more and more. On the contrary, even though Song Zining displayed his supernatural power and beheaded several dark powerhouses, he did not receive any reinforcements or supplements. As a result, there would inevitably be fewer and fewer supplies and soldiers in Heiliu City. After a period of time, even if he used his troops like a god, he would not be able to escape defeat.
When Qianye saw this, he was more surprised than angry. In this bloody battle, Heiliu City, as Sanhe County's important striker, was not taken down in one fell swoop, but stuck in a stalemate, so there shouldn't be no reinforcements.
Not to mention, there are still several divisions of the Expeditionary Army in Sanhe County. It is impossible for them not to know the consequences of the fall of Heiliu City. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken the initiative to send a full battalion over before the war started. Now that the situation in Heiliu City is critical, why did they stand still
Most of the divisions of the expeditionary army are local snakes. They may not be able to fight well, but they are not fools. What's more, Song Zining's combat strength is so strong, as long as there are reinforcements, the dark army will have to weigh the consequences of being attacked, and it is impossible to calmly surround the city for more than ten days.
Taking another ten thousand steps back, the Song Clan has also entered the Iron Curtain. It is impossible to ignore this situation. Song Zining is at least nominally the second heir to the family. If he is captured by the dark race, the Song Clan will lose regardless of face. Get naked.
However, Heiliu City had no reinforcements.
The apprentice brought a big tactical backpack, and the middle-aged man put it at Qianye's feet, and said, "This is the best field survival suit. Supplies, ammunition, and tools are all in it. You still have your quota left. Think again." What should I change?"
Qianye raised his head from the paper in his hand, "I want to find out more about this news."
The middle-aged man leaned over and took a look, his face changed slightly.
"The rest of the quota belongs to you." Qianye said, "I want to know why there is no reinforcement in Heiliu City?"
The middle-aged man quickly made a stroke on the exchange record next to him, and said with a smile, "This news is widely spread in private. In fact, you can find out by asking over there. But this thing cannot be returned to you." The remaining amount is still worth a lot, which is really a windfall.
Next, the middle-aged man briefly told Qianye what he knew, and also gave some personal judgments.
It turned out that a main division of the Nangong Private Army had arrived not far from Heiliu City, and completely blocked the passage to Heiliu City, and even stated clearly that anyone who dared to rush to help Heiliu would be an enemy of the Nangong family.
Under the threat of the Nangong family, all divisions of the expeditionary army stood still. In fact, even if they moved, it would be useless. With one main division of the Nangong family and several strong men, even three or five divisions of the expeditionary army would not be able to defeat them, not to mention the old monster Nangong Yuanwang sitting in command.
Although under the Iron Curtain, Nangong Yuanwang, who is not far from the god general, can't make a move, but his reputation has been there for many years, and no one dares to stroke the tiger's beard lightly. situation.
After hearing the news, Qianye was neither surprised nor happy on the surface, but his heart beat slowly.
thump!
Everyone in the hotel heard the sound like the drums of the prehistoric war, and for a moment their hearts felt like a huge stone, and their breathing stopped for a beat.
With a bang, the wine glass in a hunter's hand exploded, and the wine splashed all over his body, but he just sat there dumbfounded, not moving. Inside the hunter's house, there was a dead silence in an instant.
Qianye took a breath, calming down the pulsation of the blood core, and the invisible pressure that enveloped the small hotel slowly dissipated. Although the group of hunters regained their ability to move, none of them dared to move a little, and only their hands trembled uncontrollably.
It was Qianye's voice that broke the silence: "Could it be that the Song clan didn't respond to the actions of the Nangong family?"
"Song Clan?" The middle-aged man recovered the fastest, and showed a disdainful expression when he heard the words, "The group of idiots only know how to hire people like us to form a team and earn military merits for them on the battlefield. It’s not filled out by life. The Nangong family has been doing this for a day or two, and there is no sign from the Song Clan at all.”
Speaking of this, a hunter next to him couldn't help interjecting: "The Song Clan has never heard of any great person for so many years, and only this Seventh Young Master is a hero. It turned out that Seventh Young Master was in Heiliu City Fighting hard, being cut off by the Nangong family, but the Song Clan didn't even let go, so this is also worthy of being a Four Clans?"
Another hunter also said: "That's right! I heard that this Seventh Young Master killed several viscounts not long after he became a general. If it takes time, he must be an admiral, right?"
The hunters immediately talked to each other, and the words became more and more enthusiastic, and they did not hide their disdain for the Song Clan.
Qianye listened silently for a while, then put a few pieces of paper in his hand on the counter, thanked the middle-aged man, picked up the tactical backpack and walked outside.
His movements of putting down the paper were extraordinarily gentle, as if he was about to touch the most delicate flower, for fear of destroying it. A few keen hunters have been watching his movements, and immediately shut up, their eyes full of doubts.
Qianye had pushed the door open and left, a gust of wind penetrated through the unclosed door, the hall was so chilly that everyone shivered. When the counter was blown by the wind, it suddenly turned into countless fine particles of dust, and then disappeared. And those few sheets of paper fluttered in the dust and slowly fell to the ground.
There was a dead silence in the hotel for an instant, and a large amount of cold sweat poured out from the foreheads of the hunters.
"Well, why did such a fierce person come to our small place?" A hunter forced a smile.
The middle-aged man had already snatched out his account books by chance, and now he had complicated eyes, and said softly: "It seems...the Nangong family is going to be in trouble."
Next to the city gate of Tianhe County, there is a three-story building, where people flow in and out, and it is extremely lively. People who want to take the floating boat to other places must buy a ticket and register here.
Qianye walked quickly in the crowd, and with a little effort, he pushed the crowd to the left and right, making way for a passage. A little anxious, he wanted to curse, but when he saw Qianye's not-so-strong figure, a chill suddenly rose in his heart, and he swallowed all the swear words that came to his lips.
Qianye quickly squeezed to the front of the crowd, looked up and glanced at a row of counters, and saw an empty small table on the innermost side, with several small airships marked on it. He walked over, knocked on the counter, and said, "I want an airship, let's go right away."
The shrewd thin man behind the counter raised his eyebrows and said, "Charter a boat? That's not cheap! Where are you going?"
"Black Stream City."
The thin man was startled, and quickly said: "No! Don't go!"
Qianye frowned slightly, and asked, "Why?"
"It's not only under the Iron Curtain, it's still a war zone now! Isn't it courting death if you go there? Moreover, the Nangong family has issued a notice that any airship destined for Heiliu City must land at their station, otherwise there may be a risk of death after entering the country." Under attack." The thin man spoke quickly and anxiously.
"I'll add money."
The weight of these three words is different, the skinny man's expression suddenly became hesitant, he looked around with flickering eyes, and asked in a low voice: "How much to add?"
"three times."
"Not enough, at least seven times before anyone dares to go."
"make a deal."
The thin man approached Qianye, quickly said an address, and then said: "Go to this place at midnight tonight, bring enough money, and someone will arrange it for you."
Qianye nodded and prepared to leave. At this time, a thin and thin person squeezed out beside him, wrapped in a cloak all over his body, and quickly asked, "Is there an airship to Heiliu City?"
Qianye was slightly surprised, he didn't expect that there would be people going to Heiliu at such a time. But he didn't care, he went out, and faintly heard the two people arguing behind him, the voice became louder and louder.
Soon it was approaching midnight, Qianye walked towards the predetermined location. The road was quiet and deserted, and the road became narrower as one walked. The houses on both sides were gradually dilapidated, and there were more and more sewage and garbage on the road. It was already at the edge of the urban slums, where good and bad people always mixed together.
After two blocks, the main road gradually becomes an alley. As Qianye was walking, he stopped suddenly, and a thin figure rushed out from the darkness beside him, blocking him.
"Are you going to Heiliu City? Can you take me with you?"
Qianye frowned and asked, "Who are you? Besides, I won't go to Heiliu City."
The man's whole body was wrapped under a thick cloak, but a part of his back protruded. It seemed that he had hidden a large spear under the cloak. Hearing Qianye's refusal, the man suddenly became a little anxious, and shouted: "I clearly heard that you want to charter a boat to Heiliu City!"
Qianye's face darkened, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he said flatly, "If you know too much about some things, you will die."
"No, I didn't intend to pry into your secrets! I just want to go to Heiliu City."
Qianye suddenly leaned back, and a flying knife flew in front of him with a strong wind, piercing through the wall of the house on the other side of the alley, and disappeared. This knife is so powerful that even the armor of the main army can be pierced through.
Qianye looked towards the direction where the flying knives were attacking, and several people walked out of the darkness, all of them with hideous expressions. One of them smirked and said, "Boy, is it that you want to join in the excitement of Heiliu City?"
"Who are you?" Qianye's voice was cold.
