Jiang Sheng has no desire to explore established facts.
He said: "Qiu Wenyan doesn't have this ability yet."
After a pause, he continued: "According to Sheng's understanding of Huang Lie, this person is extremely wary due to his early experiences. He doesn't trust anyone except a few blood relatives and confidants, and the heavy shield warrior's secret skill in refining It is the top secret among top secrets and cannot be leaked. Even if it is leaked, he will use all means to nip it in the bud and will not let outsiders have the opportunity to threaten him..."
Shen Tang nodded: "That's right."
At this time, Xun Zhen also came over: "Although Huang Lie came from a rough background, he was not a reckless person. Otherwise, how could he command millions of bandits? Qiu Cheng used heavy shield warriors as his cooks and acted in a high profile. Once Huang Lie knew about it, he would die. No burial place.”
Shen Tang felt a lot more relieved after hearing this.
But after a while, she thought of something interesting and made no secret of her gloating: "Hey, if this army of heavy shield warriors is really the foreign aid that Qiu Cheng paid for at a price... What happened today, hey, I wonder if Qiu Wenyan is What's your expression?"
Well, it must be the color of pork liver!
Xun Zhen also relaxed her eyebrows.
"Lord, we have just finished counting the enemy's corpses."
"How many?"
Xun Zhen stretched out four fingers.
"Four hundred and sixty-seven."
There was a vague expectation in the words. This number would not be considered a victory in other battlefields, but considering that this is Huang Lie's ace army, with a total size of only 10,000 people, the meaning is different. Victory in the first battle is a victory. good sign.
"Hey, there are more than expected..." Shen Tang was happy at first, and then frowned, "There were only a thousand people just now, and there were no scribes to help. It was already so difficult. And under Huang Lie's tent There are more than 10,000 troops, how can you chew him without breaking your teeth?"
Shen Tang now felt like he was fighting monsters and leveling up.
Qiu Cheng is the first experience pack, and she is confident to win it, while Huang Lie will most likely be the BOSS that needs to be cleared in the middle and later stages, and the difficulty will soar. After Huang Lie, there may be Zheng Qiao. When Zheng Qiao is done, After solving the neighboring allies, such as Gu Ren, Wu Xian and others, small-scale mergers and operations, and then the broader northwest map... it's really a long road!
She also had to be careful not to be killed.
Speaking of this matter, Xun Zhen asked her to look at something, which made it mysterious and aroused Shen Tang's curiosity.
"What, you know how to deal with this legion?"
Xun Zhen: "I don't know, but maybe it's a clue."
What he showed Shen Tang was a corpse.
An ordinary corpse of a heavy-shielded warrior.
Two soldiers worked together to carry it over.
As soon as Shen Tang came closer, he covered his nose in disgust and leaned back, saying in a low voice: "This corpse has only been dead for a long time, why does it smell like a corpse?"
Not only is there the stench of corpses, there are also corpse spots.
Shen Tang used the edge of his sword to open the clothes of the corpse.
Large patches of corpses rushed into her eyes.
"Look at these corpse spots, they are not found on fresh corpses... At first glance, I thought he had been dead for seven or eight hours, huh..." She opened the fire fold from her arms and used the firelight to let herself see more clearly. She had not just seen it. I was wrong, the corpse's chest was really moving...
The bluish skin undulates erratically. This is not the ups and downs of breathing at all, but more like countless maggots twisting and squirming underneath.
She decisively cut open that area with the edge of her sword.
There was a soft pop.
Something like thick slurry gushed out from the wound.
As they appeared, the stench in the air became more obvious. Shen Tang looked calm, raised his hand and used the edge of his sword to spread the wounds, making them clearer. The subcutaneous tissue had been eaten away and hollowed out, and was replaced by greedy worms.
Her expression became a little more solemn.
"All these bodies were burned and then buried."
The strength of the heavy shield warriors is exchanged for the longevity, potential, and essence of the parasite. Once they are exhausted or there is insufficient external supply, the poisonous insects hiding in the body will mercilessly bite back the parasite. In short, these heavy shield warriors There is a "shelf life".
Not only does it have a "shelf life", the "shelf life" is also very short.
Shen Tang couldn't help frowning and murmuring: "... Could it be that Huang Lie exchanged the heavy shield warrior who is about to expire for supplies?"
This guess is not impossible.
Qiu Cheng didn't know the secret of the heavy shield warrior, but he only knew that this thing was very powerful, so he might have been deceived by Huang Lie.
Shen Tang was amused by his guess, and saw Xun Zhen ordering people to transport the body down and burn it. He remembered the enemy general he had fought with not long ago, and chatted before Xun Zhen turned around: "Han Zhang, I just met someone who is somewhat similar to you." Young warrior."
"Similar to Zhen?"
"Looking at his age, he looks like an older boy in your family."
Father and son may not look alike.
Shen Tang just regarded it as a fun thing.
Xun Zhen paid attention to this: "Where is this son?"
Shen Tang was depressed: "I ran away, but I wasn't caught."
On the contrary, Xun Zhen comforted Shen Tang: "If this son is really under Qiu Cheng's tent, we will definitely encounter him when our army approaches Linshan County."
His calmness surprised Shen Tang.
"Hanzhang isn't worried that that's your son?"
She is bound to win Linshan County and Sibao County.
I’m not afraid that my grown-up child will become a stepping stone.
Xun Zhen felt puzzled and asked: "Why should Zhen be worried? Not to mention that it may not be a dog, even if it is - the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, which is different from other places. Since he is here, he should know what 'life and death are destiny' ...Being timid is a coward's behavior, and begging for life is an act of incompetence. Since you are so greedy for life and afraid of death, why did you bother to do it? You might as well just stay in bed."
Enjoy the shelter provided by your old father with peace of mind.
What kind of freedom do you imagine?
Shen Tang: "..."
At the same time, the enemy general who fled back——
Or--
Xun Ding, Xun Zhen’s rebellious son.
At this moment, I feel so miserable that I can’t express it.
He lost 80% of his luggage in an ambush in Kangshi, and met Shen Tang and lost more than 400 shield warriors. He hurriedly and slowly arrived at Linshan County before Shen Tang. Qiu Cheng and others were waiting for this batch of food and grass. When he heard about the defeat, he became furious.
It hurts so much that I can bleed.
He indeed bought these heavy-shield warriors at a high price.
He is not the only one, almost all the allies of the Dragon Slaying Bureau do this. Firstly, to build a relationship with Huang Lie, secondly, to increase his trump card, and thirdly, and most importantly, to crack the secret of Huang Lie's trump card and cultivate himself. of the Guards Troops.
This kind of thinking, everyone can see through it but don't say it.
However, I never had a clue.
Who knows, who knows——
So much has been lost!!!
Xun Ding was not used to his bad temper.
He didn't suppress his anger at all, and retorted on the spot: "The information provided by Mr. Qiu's account is wrong, how can you blame me for being incompetent? If I hadn't been lucky enough to have two encounters in one day, this I’m afraid my life will be ruined early!”
He only helped Qiu Cheng fight.
Help Qiu Cheng fight for his life?
That's another price.
One of the generals under Qiu Cheng's tent asked: "Isn't it because of incompetence? How should you explain the loss of the heavy shield warriors? Each of them can equal one to ten, or even one to a hundred. We all know how strong they are! Put it in your hands. But we suffered heavy losses. Isn’t it because you commanded improperly? You couldn’t tell the right time? I never thought that there are warriors in the world as naughty as you. They only know how to shirk responsibility and don’t think about themselves, which makes people laughable!”
Xun Ding almost laughed angrily, and immediately retorted: "The old general always preaches in the same way. How could he have forgotten so quickly the embarrassment he faced when he faced Gongxi Qiu even with no fighting spirit? Why didn't you talk about it that time? How wise are you in commanding and how decisive are you in making decisions? No matter how strong the heavy shield warriors are, they are just a group of second-class warriors, not a group of twelfth-class left-wingers. They cannot be called 'invincible', nor are they invulnerable with bronze skin and iron bones!"
Facing a powerful enemy that is far stronger than one's own, no matter how powerful the operation is, it is just a fancy little trick.
The brave warrior was choked and turned pale.
He takes a flexible and adaptable approach.
In front of Gong Xiqiu, he operated as fiercely as a tiger, but was suppressed by the opponent with brute force and was even ridiculed. Gong Xiqiu: [It's all fancy and time-consuming.]
Xun Ding brought this matter up again, and he was naturally angry and said angrily: "You, you are just a bully that can be bought with money——"
Xun Ding was too lazy to refute.
"Oh, thank you for the compliment." His many years of being a bandit made him look less upright, and his eyes even carried a bit of evil charm, and he spoke angrily, "What's wrong with working for money? You guys are also cannibals of salary." Officials? Or do you regard money as dung and disdain the salary given by Qiu Gong? You don’t care about it, I care about it. After all, you can’t support the young and old by drinking the northwest wind."
After Xun Ding finished speaking, he was surrounded by unkind and ferocious looks. He sneered confidently: "Also, Shen Tang personally led his troops to attack Linshan County. The three armies have assembled not far away. I am afraid they will be here in a few hours. It would be best if you all make plans early."
