There was only one two-wheeled carriage on the spacious road, walking lazily under the scorching sun. Except for the unhurried sound of horse hooves, everything was dead silent, and the driver driving the carriage seemed to be half asleep and half awake.
"Boom, boom, boom," a powerful roar came from far to near. As the sound intensified, the ground began to shake.
"Changsheng, what's the matter?" Following the voice, Murong Xiaotian's head stretched out from the carriage.
It has been one day since we left Xinxiang Town, and we can enter the black earth plains in the imperial capital area of Tianfeng Empire in one day's journey. Murong Xiaotian has been walking for a day with Changsheng and Tang Shi. This is the first time we have encountered such a big movement like today.
arrive.
With Marshal Chamberlain's letter of recommendation, getting the Mark of the God of War should be a sure thing.
However, before that, Murong Xiaotian still wanted to find ways to get the other two God of War Contract Books.
Damn, one copy of the Contract Book is equivalent to 20,000 contract-sworn soldiers, and three copies is equivalent to 60,000 soldiers. That’s a lot of power!
The most impressive thing is that the soldiers of the Tianhu Division who signed the God of War Contract Oath with him before, after this battle, their martial arts training levels have actually improved.
"System prompt: Player, I am a thief, a soldier contracted by the God of War who has sworn allegiance to you. Under the protection of the light of the God of War, my rank has increased by two levels..."
Darling! Just by relying on this system prompt, Murong Xiaotian will try his best to get the other two God of War Contract Books.
In the battle of Beimang Mountain, more than 30,000 Moro soldiers were captured. Murong Xiaotian selected nearly 10,000 of them and collected 20,000 to complete the full staff of the pledge of allegiance to the God of War contract obtained from Chamberlain.
At the same time, the remaining captives were all owned by Murong Xiaotian, who formed the Divine War Legion to garrison at Black Wind Pass.
Damn it, what kind of Tianhu Division does it have to have the same name as his Tianhu Legion?
Murong Xiaotian's proposal naturally received Chamberlain's full support, and the letter requesting the emperor's approval was in Murong Xiaotian's package.
In this way, Murong Xiaotian's God of War Legion has 40,000 people. Now that he has obtained a God of War contract, he doesn't have to worry about finding soldiers.
Therefore, Murong Xiaotian asked the big man to temporarily take charge of the command and training of the Divine War Legion, and he took Tang Shi and Changsheng straight to the imperial capital of the Tianfeng Empire.
Tang Shi and Changsheng were both from the imperial capital. As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to do things. It is not a bad thing to bring them together.
As for the big man, there won't be a war in the short term anyway, so there's nothing to worry about. The top priority right now is to get the rest of the God of War contracts.
Of course, it is best to get all three contracts, but if this is not possible, at least two are necessary.
However, it is easier said than done. The remaining two God of War contracts are in the hands of the other two marshals. Why should they give them to you?
"Brother Thief, it seems that there are a large number of people coming from behind in this direction." Changsheng, who was driving the carriage, covered his forehead with his hands, stretched his neck and looked back.
"Chang Sheng, drive the carriage to the side of the road and wait for the people behind to pass by before we leave." After all, Murong Xiaotian had seen many times and heard that the kicking sound of the horse behind was very urgent and very fast, which was slightly uncomfortable.
It was no joke that Shen was rushed by the cavalry behind him.
What's more, now it's really better to have one less thing than one more thing.
Changsheng drove the carriage to the roadside, and Murong Xiaotian and Tang Shi also got off the carriage one after another. The roar behind them was so shocking that countless Tianfeng Empire cavalry surrounded a four-wheeled carriage and roared away with billowing dust smoke.
Come.
"It's so spectacular!" Tang Shi looked excited at the soldiers wearing armor who were getting closer and closer.
The running team rushed in front of them in an instant. No one looked at them, as if they did not exist at all. The four-wheeled carriage whizzed past surrounded by many people and disappeared on the road ahead in the blink of an eye. Then the knights all
Passed batch after batch.
"Aren't you leaving yet, are you staying here to wait for death?" As the large group of people passed by, a middle-aged man wearing silver armor and wearing a blue badge of an eighth-level warrior on his chest jumped off the horse.
He walked quickly towards Murong Xiaotian and the others. Immediately behind him, seven or eight soldiers jumped off their horses and followed.
"What? Is there a war in the empire?" Murong Xiaotian felt that the atmosphere was unusual.
"Grand Duke Tukri has committed treason. All roads to the northern part of the imperial capital are blocked. We are protecting the family of Marshal Lin Bubai, the imperial marshal, and they have to detour through Huadu Prefecture and return to the imperial capital from the Tianma Plain in the north. There are now 10,000 people behind us.
Grand Duke Toukri's Thunder Knights are coming after him, why don't you leave quickly?"
Xiang was verifying the middle-aged man's words when a faint tremor of the earth could be heard from behind, and the whole space seemed to be surging with wind and clouds.
"They came really fast," the middle-aged man's face changed color slightly, and he waved his big hand behind him: "Take them away," he said, reaching out and picking up Murong Xiaotian, who was closest to him, and got on the horse.
At the same time, he shouted loudly from behind: "Commander, pass on my order and inform the people in front to speed up."
"My things are still on the carriage,"
"Why do you care about anything when your life is almost gone?" Another soldier grabbed the shouting Chang Sheng by the neck and threw him onto the horse's back, then he also got on the horse.
Tang Shi was also carried on horseback by other warriors and began to run forward frantically.
Originally, with their ability, how could they handle people like chickens? It was just because Murong Little Angel winked that Tang Shi and Changsheng remained silent.
The Grand Duke Tukeli, one of the four famous princes, had to choose this juncture to commit treason. It was not difficult for Murong Xiaotian to guess that this guy should be in collusion with the Moro tribe.
As soon as the war broke out, they started to take action, which was obviously a trick of cooperating inside and outside.
It's a pity that their calculations were wrong. They may not know that the Moro army has been completely defeated, and the Tianhuang Army who came to support can return to the imperial capital at any time.
Even Marshal Chamberlain of the Tianhu Army could leave only one division to garrison the border while the remaining four divisions came to suppress the rebellion.
After all, avalanches have blocked the Tianmang Mountain pass, and every few months, it is impossible to open the mountain.
Murong Xiaotian wanted to see who they were, what their purpose was, and also to understand the current trends of the four famous houses.
Okay! It’s quite interesting to pretend to be an ordinary person for once.
At this time, the sounds from behind were getting louder and louder, and the proud roar of the Thunder Beast could already be heard. The pursuers were getting closer and closer...
"Brother, we seem to be running in the wrong direction!" Murong Xiaotian turned his head and looked at the bearded face of the middle-aged man in front of him, and couldn't help but speak.
"That's right, we are running to Stone City, which is the closest to here. Reinforcements will only come when we get there," the middle-aged man didn't know why he answered Murong Xiaotian's question.
"But we are still more than 400 kilometers away from Stone City. I'm afraid we will be trampled to pieces by the thunder beasts before we reach Stone City," Murong Xiaotian said without saying anything, and put forward different opinions in an understatement.
"this,……"
"There's no need for this or that. According to the running speed of the Thunder Beast, we will be overtaken by them in less than two hours at most," Murong Xiaotian answered more easily.
"Then what do you think we should do?" the middle-aged man said angrily, and then he shook his head and laughed at himself. He even thought it was funny. How could a dignified division commander of the empire ask a passerby what to do?
"Change the direction and walk northwest. If you go northwest for more than fifty kilometers, you can enter the black jungle of the Boker Mountains. Once there, their thunder beasts will be useless. If they dare to hike into the forest, we will greet them with bows and arrows.
They, even if there are more of them, they can't do anything to us." Murong Xiaotian raised his head confidently, as if he was sure of his words.
"But if they block the outside of the jungle, we will be trapped and die inside," the middle-aged man expressed his worries.
"Then let me down," Murong Xiaotian suddenly looked at the middle-aged man seriously.
"What do you mean?" The middle-aged man really couldn't understand the person in front of him.
"I don't want to be trampled to pieces by the Thunder Beast later," the voice from behind became louder and louder, and Murong Xiaotian's eyes became sharp: "I really don't know how you became the leader of the division. We
If you go into the forest now, at least you will be alive today, but if you have to run towards Stone City, you won't be able to survive today." Murong Xiaotian's voice began to get colder and colder. The countless life-and-death battles in "Destiny" and "The Way of Heaven" have already begun.
To train him to be cold and resolute.
Of course, a mere Thunder Beast couldn't kill him. When he was in "Destiny", didn't he have a Thunder Beast himself? This guy was big and thick-skinned, and his collision force was super strong. I didn't expect that in the ancient continent, there were actually such beasts.
A division with the Thunder Beast as its mount.
To be honest, Murong Xiaotian has never seen such a cavalry regiment before in the Tianhu Empire or the legions of the Moluo tribe.
It seems that these four famous mansions are not simple!
"I know what you are thinking. You want to sacrifice part of your troops to buy time for the people in front. As long as you can ensure that the carriage at the front and Marshal Lin Bubai's family can reach Stone City safely, that is your goal."
Murong Xiaotian's eyes showed disdain and ridicule, and he said without mercy:
"But I want to remind you, brother, you can't stop the surging momentum behind you. If you insist on persisting, we will all die," Murong Xiaotian gave the middle-aged man a meaningful look.
, he said carefully, word by word: "Including Marshal Lin Bubai's family!"
Of course, they will definitely not die, they can just ride away on the Thunder Beast.
However, as the division commander of the Tianfeng Empire, he can't watch the soldiers of the empire die, right?
What's more important is the Book of War God's Contract in the hands of Marshal Lin Bubai, the commander of the Tianlong Legion.
Damn it, if he saved his family, he wouldn't give it face, right?
