Chapter 1284 A plan to determine the military heart
At the beginning, Long Yuxi and Lin Yun were worried that assassins would attack them at night, so these 200 patrols were all top martial artists.
Even a Martial Emperor cannot move freely among two hundred Martial Sects.
"The ones who died were all ordinary soldiers..." Lin Yun murmured, frowning.
The hundreds of people who died were either those who had not reached the realm of King Wu or were ordinary people, and it seemed that they did not cause much damage.
"Brother Lin Yun, what's going on?" Long Yuxi hurriedly walked over and asked Lin Yun.
If this matter is not resolved, people in the army will only be panicked and the number of soldiers will drop drastically. By then, I am afraid that their army will be disbanded without having to go to the Assassination Society headquarters.
"There are no wounds." Lin Yun was also a little confused. There were no wounds on these dead soldiers and their internal organs were intact. It was more like they died suddenly without any warning.
"Is there a Martial Emperor with water attributes?" At this time, Lin Yun looked around and asked.
"Deputy Commander, I am!" At this time, a fourth-level Martial Emperor came out.
"Check the surrounding water veins to see if there is anything strange inside." Lin Yun ordered.
After the fourth-level Martial King nodded, he took a few people and flew towards the direction of the water veins.
On the other side, Lin Yun also released his spiritual consciousness, covering everything around him, wanting to see if there was anything strange.
There was chaos in the army, and the soldiers were very frightened and discussed the matter cautiously.
After a long time, Lin Yun withdrew his consciousness, looked at Xiao Yin, shook his head, and said he found nothing.
At this time, the fourth-level Martial Emperor also came back and told Lin Yun that he had not found anything in the water veins.
"There is no problem in the air, and there is no problem in the water source..." Lin Yun murmured, puzzled.
He didn't sleep all night last night and didn't notice anything weird.
If there was really an intruder, it would be impossible for him to kill so many people so quietly under his eyes.
Moreover, this person still kills a few people in each tent. If they are really intruders, they don't have to go to all the trouble and just kill all the people in the tent.
At this time, the noisy voice in the army was getting louder and louder, and now these soldiers were worried that they would die in this place for no reason.
"Everyone, calm down!" Long Yuxi was so noisy that he had a splitting headache. He roared, mixed with the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring, directly drowning out everyone's voices.
After hearing Long Yuxi's roar, these people trembled and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that after just one night, the current morale is no longer as good as before.
"Brother Lin Yun, this doesn't seem to work..." Long Yuxi looked at Lin Yun with some worry. If he didn't give an explanation to these soldiers today, I'm afraid their military morale would be lost.
Lin Yun frowned, feeling a little helpless.
"Lin Yun, is this man-made or what happened?" Xiao Yin also asked with some worry.
"It should be man-made." Lin Yun said, looking at the sky.
Because after he radiated his spiritual consciousness, he found that there were no toxic substances in the air, and there were no problems with the soil and water sources.
Then the only thing that can make this happen is man-made reasons.
It’s just that even if we know it’s man-made, but now people haven’t seen it and they don’t know where it is, how can we solve it?
"Sect Master, I have a plan that can temporarily calm the morale of the army." At this time, Long Chenfeng said in a low voice.
Lin Yun and others also looked at Long Chenfeng, wanting to hear what the plan was.
After listening to Long Chenfeng's plan, Lin Yun and others also showed a little helplessness on their faces.
"That's the only way it can be." Long Yuxi lamented.
Lin Yun nodded, and Xiao Yin also expressed that he had no objection.
"Chenfeng, it's up to you to solve this matter." Long Yuxi patted Long Chenfeng's shoulder and said helplessly.
Long Chenfeng sighed and walked to the crowd.
As soon as the army saw Long Chenfeng, they all looked at him, wanting to know the truth of the matter.
"Soldiers! Regarding the fact that a brother died in the dark night last night, we have investigated the truth!" Long Chenfeng shouted loudly.
Everyone looked at Long Chenfeng eagerly.
"As we all know, we will arrive at the Eastern Mountains in five days."
"Now the assassins are afraid of our northern army, so they drop poison gas in the eastern mountains."
"Toxic gas can spread through the air, and brothers with poor physical fitness will indeed die from it."
As soon as this statement came out, the soldiers immediately started to explode, whispering to each other, and looking panicked.
"What should we do?"
"We haven't even reached the Eastern Region yet... We are about to die."
"Thousands of people have died every day this month. How many people are left in the Eastern Region?"
"Sirs, don't worry!" Long Chenfeng injected immortal energy into his voice, immediately making everyone quiet down.
"The commander and deputy commander will work overnight to create an antidote that can break the poisonous gas. By then, the poisonous gas will have no effect."
On the other side, Long Yuxi and Xiao Yin looked at each other and smiled bitterly. This was the delaying strategy that Long Chenfeng came up with.
After all, if I didn't say so, I'm afraid it would be difficult to even advance now.
After some persuasion and comfort from Long Chenfeng, the army gradually calmed down and then continued to march.
While the army was advancing, Lin Yun and the other three also sat on the backs of the dragons and flew above the army.
"Damn! Who can kill people so quietly?" Long Yuxi's heart was filled with anger. This was the first night they marched, and they encountered such a thing.
The key is that they don't even know who the enemy is, what they look like, or what abilities they have.
"Chen Feng's plan is just a delaying tactic." Xiao Yin shook his head and sighed. "I just hope that something like this won't happen again tonight."
Lin Yun was silent on the sidelines, but he was at a loss what to do.
Time passed quietly, and as the sun and moon alternated, and the black curtain slowly filled the sky, the army of the Northern Territory once again camped on the ground.
Because of what happened last night, Long Yuxi ordered the captains of each team to guard all directions of the military camp and take strict precautions not to let even a fly in.
In a tent, many people could not sleep, holding their weapons warily, eyes wide open, not daring to relax at all.
"Boss...you think I've breathed so many times recently, could I have inhaled too much poisonous gas?" He was still the same young boy from last night, looking at the man next to him with a worried expression.
"It's okay. Your eldest brother, I am King Wu. If you have anything to do, I will take care of it for you. Go get some sleep." The man smiled and patted his shoulder.
