First the fierce battle in Jincheng, then the melee in the city, and the final breakout, they were almost exhausted.
Even with Shen Changqing at the helm, the Black Tiger Army has no way to really move forward.
at last.
After the scouts found a safe and hidden place, more than two thousand Black Tiger troops temporarily settled down.
Some people were sent out for a walk, and the remaining Black Tiger Army rested on the spot without removing their armor. They took out the prepared dry food and drank it with clean water.
Chu Ding and other commanders also received similar treatment.
at night.
There was a weak firelight rising, which provided some lighting in front of me, but it would not be noticed by anyone too far away.
in dry land.
A simple sand table was carved in it.
Chu Ding held a branch, pointed at the landforms above, and then looked up at the others.
"Our current location is probably here. The barbarian wilderness is in the south. When the barbarians invaded Dahuang Mansion, they marched their troops from south to north. According to the news, the barbarian army is now divided into five groups.
Among them, the barbarians who attacked Jincheng were only one of them, and the other four barbarian armies were all in these locations."
When talking.
The branches touched several other places.
Those locations are connected to Jincheng, forming an arc.
"It can be seen that the barbarians want to expand the territory they occupy in an arc, and then shrink internally to crush our forces, thereby further encroaching on the Great Wilderness.
So if we evacuate and go outside, it will be easy for other barbarian armies to join us. Only by going north along the barbarian encirclement can we meet up with other barbarian armies."
Hear the words.
Nie Xu frowned.
"What the barbarians are doing now is to drive us together, but why do they do this? To be honest, with the strength of the barbarians, it is impossible to occupy Dahuang Mansion.
To take a step back, even if the barbarians were lucky enough to occupy Dahuang Mansion, it would only be temporary.
With the power of the imperial court, what qualifications did the barbarians have to compete?
When the imperial court reacts and the army moves south, the barbarians can only abandon Dahuang Mansion and flee."
While speaking, he moved his shoulders, which immediately involved the wound, and a heartbreaking pain made his face turn pale.
suck!
Nie Xu took a breath of cold air to ease the pain, and then his eyes continued to fall on the sand table.
"The barbarians have repeatedly attacked Dahuang Mansion, all to plunder supplies for the winter. There is still some time before winter, and it is too early for the barbarians to invade Dahuang Mansion.
But to say that the barbarians are trying to capture Dahuang Mansion is even more of a joke."
In fact, many people know how strong the barbarians are.
If you want to compete with Da Qin, there is no difference.
Over the years.
The barbarians who died at the hands of the Qin Dynasty were much more than the Qin people who died at the hands of the barbarians.
Even if the Qin Dynasty's national power is weakened, the barbarians cannot compete.
To put it bluntly.
Even now, if there is no barbaric territory to rely on, the Qin Dynasty can still wipe out all the barbarians with all its strength.
"The barbarians have always been arrogant. Maybe they think that because our Great Qin's strength is weak, there is nothing we can do to stop them. That's not necessarily the case."
Chu Ding shook his head and had great hatred for the barbarians.
"But in any case, the purpose of the barbarians now is definitely not as simple as robbery. Although it is not clear where their current confidence comes from, this matter is not something you and I can control right now.
The barbarians invaded Dahuang Mansion, but whether they retreated or not, Dahuang Mansion was destined to suffer heavy losses.
From last night to now, it has been almost a day. It is expected that the news has spread a lot. Even if Dahuang Mansion has not fully reacted, it is almost there.
Let's rest for a few hours and prepare to join the Black Tiger troops stationed elsewhere."
After calculating the time, it is almost time for the news to spread.
Later.
He looked at Zhongchi aside.
Like Nie Xu, Zhong Chi was also severely traumatized.
After all, it is impossible to break through the encirclement with the army without suffering any injuries.
A warrior in the Tongmai realm.
He is not qualified to protect himself amidst the fighting of tens of thousands of armies.
If he hadn't been protected by someone, Nie Xu might have died among the rebels long ago.
"Is there any news from Tianchawei now?"
"I have no way to contact Tianchawei now."
Zhongchi shook his head.
The Tianchawei intelligence network is dense, but it does not mean that it is really everywhere.
Now that Jincheng has been destroyed, the Tiancha Guards in Jincheng have suffered heavy losses. He is not sure how many of the remaining ones are alive.
In addition, since he is now evacuating with the Black Tiger Army, he has temporarily lost contact with the Tiancha Guard.
This way.
There is no way to collect information.
Hearing this, Chu Ding looked a little disappointed.
If there is information from the Tianchawei, plus the information from the Black Tiger Army itself, we might be able to know more things.
But he also understands.
Tianchawei is not omnipotent, and Zhongchi's current situation is no better than his own.
Under the dim firelight, everyone's face looked unhappy.
Zhongchi suddenly sighed.
"I don't know what's going on with Mr. Shen now. He can stop the barbarian army with his own strength. Even if he is a strong man like Tiger, Leopard and Thunder, he probably won't be able to deal with it!"
Shen Changqing is strong, but the barbarians are not weak either.
In addition, Melba is a strong person in the middle stage of the Grand Master. Even if he is not as strong as the late Grand Master, Hubao Leiyin, it will not be much worse.
to be honest.
He doesn't have much confidence in Shen Changqing.
If Shen Changqing falls into the hands of the barbarians, the Demon Suppressor will definitely be furious.
A strong man with tiger, leopard and thunderous voice cannot be lost arbitrarily even if he is the Demon Suppressor.
Chu Ding looked calm.
"Since Mr. Shen dares to cut off the queen alone, his strength is beyond what you and I can predict. Although the barbarian army is large, it is impossible to keep him. After all, a strong man at that level cannot be compared to ordinary warriors.
Even if Melba takes action, the probability of the barbarians surrounding him is low.
Maybe at this time, Mr. Shen has already evacuated first."
"I hope so!"
Zhongchi let out another long sigh.
Immediately.
The scene just fell silent.
More than two thousand Black Tiger troops were stationed in the dense forest, and no unnecessary noise was heard. Unless someone saw it with their own eyes, they would never believe that there were more than two thousand people hiding here.
Time passes slowly.
The Black Tiger Army, who was out in force, did not dare to relax at all.
The barbarians are so arrogant now that they will send people to kill them if they can't protect them all.
at this time.
Scouts can play a big role.
suddenly.
In the dim vision, a black figure slowly walked towards him, and a strong smell of blood filled the air.
Suddenly.
A voice like a night owl resounded in the silent night sky.
Soon, the sounds of other night owls echoed loudly.
"somebody is coming!"
"Go and inform the others!"
The secret sentries hidden in other places, as well as the Black Tiger Army stationed and resting, received the news immediately.
Chu Ding shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, please don't act rashly. Wen Ce will follow me to see the situation."
There are many types of hidden whistle signals.
If a large army attacks, it will be a very urgent signal.
Although the signal was ringing now, it was not urgent. It was obvious that someone was coming, but not many people were coming.
In this situation.
If all the Black Tigers were startled, they would undoubtedly be exposed. It would be better to lead some people over quietly. If they are really barbarians, killing them with the force of thunder can also prevent other Black Tigers from being exposed.
"I'll follow you and take a look."
Zhongchi stood up.
Seeing this, Chu Ding did not hesitate.
Nie Xu was very self-aware and had no intention of following him.
"My strength is low, so I won't hold you back. Just be careful."
"Well, Lord Nie, please stay here and have a good rest!"
Chu Ding had no intention of asking Nie Xu to follow him. For a warrior who was not even in the realm of Tongmai, what would be the use of following him.
Critical time.
Maybe it's really just a hindrance.
After sending the signal, the secret sentry did not act rashly. He just stayed quietly in the tree, hiding himself with the help of the surrounding dark environment, and silently watched the black figure approaching.
As the other party got closer, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, and there was an urge to make people sick.
Only when the black shadow came completely under the tree did the secret sentry see clearly what that person looked like.
Broken bloody clothes.
There was a long knife on his waist, and the original color of the scabbard could no longer be seen clearly. It was replaced by the black and red color after blood coagulation.
When he looked at the bloody face again, his heart was shocked.
"Master Shen!"
After seeing the person clearly, the secret sentry immediately appeared from the darkness and landed in front of Shen Changqing.
I saw someone appear.
There was no surprise on Shen Changqing's face.
Based on his perception, he had already known that there was someone in the tree.
"Are you from the Black Tiger Army?"
Looking at the other party's clothes, Shen Changqing understood clearly.
After breaking out of the encirclement, he followed the faint traces of the Black Tiger Army's retreat. He was not 100% sure that the Black Tiger Army would definitely stay here, but when he saw the words of the people in front of him, he was really sure. Come down.
The Black Tiger soldier looked excited.
"Master Shen, you're okay, that's really great!"
What happened after Shen Changqing's death was seen by all the Black Tiger Army, and he also felt sincere admiration for this Lord of the Demon Suppression Division.
Now that the other party has appeared, it means that he did not die in the hands of the barbarian army, which is obviously a gratifying thing.
At this time.
Chu Ding also came with people.
When the Black Tiger Army saw this, he was worried about a conflict between the two sides and hurriedly spoke.
"The person coming is Master Shen Changqing!"
The words fell.
The accompanying team immediately became commotion.
The leaders, Chu Ding and Zhong Chi, relied on their night vision abilities to see Shen Changqing's face clearly from a short distance away.
That face.
Even if it's covered in blood, they can still recognize it.
"It's really Mr. Shen!"
The two of them were shocked, and then their faces showed joy.
soon.
The accompanying Black Tiger Army all came out of the darkness.
