Chapter 72: The Shocking Change at the Checkpoint

An olive branch must be watered with hot blood to flourish - Beamon Proverb -

Liu Zhenzhen, who was laughing and joking on his way home while torturing the giant Newtonian bird with the Musketeers, also didn't forget to take a turn to see his old friend, Saloman Sacrifice Roberto Baggio.

In terms of territory, Robert's military station has not yet entered the salt forests and the Bering Mountains. It is basically stationed in the Danube Wilderness, guarding the throat of the human country of Dolot at the foot of the snow-capped mountains to the Fox territory. Liu Zhenzhen

If you want to see him, you have to take a long detour.

I have to admit that on the border, the Wolf Wolf Clan did help the Fox Fox Clan share many responsibilities.

Liu Zhenshao had another purpose in going to Robert this time - to invite him to participate in the National Sacrifice Olympics next year. In the early days of Feilengcui's establishment, Liu Zhenshao once asked Corina to come to Robert's territory and drag a lot of salt back, and Robert also

He gave Liu Zhanzhan a package of specialties from the Wolfe territory, a large package of prickly pear fruits and cryptic flowers.

Prickly pear is the only plant in the saline-alkali forest. It is the fruit produced by the succulent cactus after it blooms. Since there are no bees and butterflies in the saline-alkali land, it is rare for every hundred cacti to bear fruit after they bloom, so it seems that some things are rare.

expensive.

The appearance of the prickly pear resembles a meteor hammer. Peel off the prickly shell and you’ll find yellow pulp inside. It tastes a little astringent but has a sweet aftertaste. Cryptocarpus is the only thing that the Wolf family can do in the salt-alkali forest.

The crops grown were agriculture developed with the help of many hobbit halflings who were proficient in food.

Sending Smail Mao to someone thousands of miles away is a gift that is light on etiquette but heavy on friendship. Although sometimes he pursues direct benefits too much, Liu Zhenzhen has never forgotten to repay those who have been kind to him.

As for the identity of the folk Saloman priest, which the temple had always refused to recognize, and which Robbie had always cared about, Liu Zhenzhen felt that the Olympics might be a good opportunity. If he took Robbie with him, it would not only benefit his own strength, but also his identity as a priest.

Just in time to return a favor to Robbie.

After a long period of immersion, Liu Zhenzhen discovered that it was absolutely impossible to argue with the temple. He could only smash his way out with his fists. As long as he won the first place in the Olympic Games, he would have the right to open an altar and give him a name at that time.

I can't say enough about giving it to Robbie.

In fact, when Liu Zhenhan came back, he felt a little strange as to why Lord Qi Dan, the great shaman of the Northeastern Temple, insisted on going to the National Olympics despite all opinions. Cui Beixian was pressed by him, but she still told the truth. Regarding Liu Zhenhan's self-made

She had secretly reported the matter about the war song scroll to the Great Shaman of Wei'an, Mr. Qi Dan. This was also the reason why the Great Shaman of Wei'an suddenly changed his attitude 180 degrees after Liu Zhensha's victory in the duel with the kangaroo priest of the Shengkailu Tribe.

The reason is.

Liu Zhensha couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart: Woman, your name is Kuai Zui.

In fact, Liu Zhancheng's concerns were due to paranoia.

He didn't know that Cui Beixian was the candidate to be the next Great Shaman of the Northeast Temple. She was a key training target of the Northeast Temple, and of course she had to be responsible for the temple.

A war priest who defeated two scepter priests in a row and created his own war song scroll would definitely cause a sensation in the royal city.

Mr. Milu of the Fox tribe, currently one of the twelve chief priests in the kingdom, has reached the age of retirement due to old age and illness. Competition for this vacancy is fierce now. The Northeastern Temple has been weak for a long time. Although the number of priests produced is superior to that of the same group, the quality has always been

If you can't go up, Lord Qi Dan, the great shaman of Wei'an, originally had no chance. Now, suddenly, two talented newcomers have appeared to support the sky. Lord Qi Dan will certainly not be stupid enough to give these secrets to him now.

Come on, as long as next year's sacrificial meeting, the duo of young masters and apprentices from the Northeast Temple will perform a war dance and a scroll of war songs in front of the red high priest and the king, the Northeast Temple will be completely in the whole competition.

The Kingdom of Mon became the center of attention.

To be honest, the Great Shaman Wei'an was indeed surprised when he heard Cui Beixian report this matter. However, as a veteran priest who participated in the Battle of Hyjal a thousand years ago, his mental endurance must be far greater than

For those priests who have never seen the world, the two magic pets of the scepter priests were not only injured, but also killed. The great shaman of Wei'an will not feel sorry for them now.

Liu Zhencheng didn't know that he, a prodigal son, had now become the heart of the Great Shaman of Wei'an.

When Lord Beloved and his musk men and halflings rushed to Robbie's outpost full of longing, they were surprised to find that the garrison outpost had been completely destroyed and was desolate. There were several black ravens standing there.

The wooden fence that had been cut to pieces screamed "croak".

When Liu Zhensha and the Musketeers rushed in nervously, they discovered that the entire outpost was lifeless. Looking around, the dead bodies were in a mess. The kobold militia, the brave Wolf Wolf Cavalry, and the wargs in the animal pens all...

Lying inside and outside the cold tent, the pool of red and black blood was like a mirror, and a shocking smell of blood permeated everywhere.

Although each border force has mobilized elites to support the kingdom and the desert humans in the western front operations, the Wolf clan still has at least two teams of twenty people at each border outpost, as well as about twenty Taoists.

The Ge tribe militia assists. If they encounter an enemy attack, they can immediately light wolf dung to summon support from other outposts fifty miles away. Liu Zhensha really can't figure out where the bandits are so bold to attack the regular army of the Behemoth Kingdom.

?And he did it so neatly that he didn’t even have time to light the smoke from the turret beacon tower?

After repeated searches, Liu Zhenshao failed to find Robbie among the dead wolf cavalry. Liu Zhenshao also carefully examined the wounds on the corpses of the wolf cavalry and the kobolds. Based on the degree of blood coagulation, he deduced the identity of the wolf.

The cavalrymen died last night. Because of the cold weather, although the bodies were stiff, no spots had appeared on their bodies. The wounds on their bodies were similar to penetrating wounds caused by bows and arrows or swords, but the weapons in the wounds had been removed.

Not only that, each Wolf Cavalry also had a rolled-up knife edge on its neck. The cut was so heavy that the neck bones of some Wolf Cavalry corpses were cut off, leaving almost only a layer of skin connected to their heads.

What's even more frightening is that the corpses of these wolf cavalry have all had their pants stripped off. The most beautiful and gorgeous furry tails of the Wolf family are gone, replaced by a bloody hole...

Caressing the last wolf cavalry's unwillingly widened eyes, Liu Zhenzhen's fists clenched loudly.

It seems that the wolf cavalry were attacked at close range without any precautions. The identity of these attackers is obviously very special, their number is definitely not large, and they have enough methods to deceive the vigilant eyes of the wolfs.

The sneak attackers were ruthless, as evidenced by the cuts on the necks of each Wolf Cavalry and Kobold Militia body, which were specially made to prevent anyone from being left alive.

There are still two remaining fire embers in the middle of the camp. They have been extinguished, leaving only black vegetation and ashes. Around the fire, a large piece of tent felt has been cut off by a sharp knife and spread on the ground. There are people lying on it.

Traces of weight left behind after falling.

There are many messy hoofprints on the ground, which are very large and deep. The hoofprints of ponies and wargs in the wilderness are only half the size of these hoofprints, and no one will help ponies and wargs to slap iron shoes on them.

, there are obvious traces of hoof nails on the edges of the hoof prints on the ground.

He kicked away the embers with his riding boots, and Liu Zhancheng dusted the ground with his fingers. There was still a slight residual heat on the ground.

The arrogance of this group of sneak attackers made Liu Zhenhan's expression even more ugly. These people killed the soldiers of Beamon's army, stripped off Beamon's gorgeous fur, and actually dared to camp here all night with such arrogance!

Liu Zhencheng also found a few bread crumbs from the grass stalks in the campsite. Apparently, a gourmet who tasted bread forgot to put on a tablecloth and accidentally slipped from the corner of his mouth. The bread crumbs were very dry and even wet with dew.

None, just crush it between your fingers and turn into crispy, light wheat-colored particles.

Perhaps seeing the boss's solemn expression, Adu and the Musketeers immediately dispersed and looked around for suspicious things.

After a while, the conscientious musk deer discovered a pile of feces in a grass nest not far away, and next to it was a hemp rope stained with filth.

This discovery is very wonderful, because Behemoth usually uses the nearest materials after going to the toilet, and it is impossible to bring a special hemp rope. As for the bandits in the wasteland, let alone them, they use whatever they have, and they grab it if they have nothing.

Tucara.

Only humans can eat white bread, not to mention horseshoes. Beamon's mineral resources are not luxurious enough to give iron paws to livestock.

As for the thin hemp rope used to wipe buttocks, Liu Zhencheng heard from Elder Andulan that it was the toilet habit of human court nobles.

The Jostre Festival is coming in a few days, and the human merchants in Dolot will not return to Witherspoon at this time. Their business is being taken care of by their own confidants in the Behemoth Kingdom, and they can also use carrier pigeons to

To exchange news, at this time they should appear at a cocktail party of some wealthy family, bragging to others about their adventures in gold panning in the wild country.

In the past few years, human beings who are both traders and thieves have appeared in the wasteland. Liu Zhanzhen had already heard about it, but the human bandits openly attacked the Behemoth border outpost. This was something Liu Zhenhan could not have expected. Suddenly, another one appeared among them.

Liu Zhenzhen found the possibility of being a royal noble a bit interesting.

Liu Zhenshao immediately climbed onto the flamingo, preparing to report the matter to other outposts of the Wolf clan along the wasteland.

The situation was worse than he imagined. The six outposts along the wasteland that controlled thousands of miles of vast wilderness had all encountered the same situation as Robbie's outpost.

The Wolf clan mainly guards the salt-alkali forest. The main troop storage point is five hundred miles away from here. The six checkpoints added here are actually mostly to fulfill their obligations to the halfling tribe in the Bering Mountains and to provide troops by the way.

The nervous Fox Fox Clan guarded the door and thanked the Fox Clan for their annual financial assistance.

Even including Robbie's outpost, seven outposts in the wasteland were uprooted at the same time, leaving no one alive. The smell behind this made Liu shocked and felt chills on his forehead.

The bandits will never have this kind of coordination ability. There is only one person who can do this, the scout in the army of the human principality Dolot and Liu Zhenshao's colleague - the scout.

This means that the human country Dulote on the other side of the wasteland is ready to move. Without the support of the country, no adventurer or mercenary will dare to confront a country. Attacking the border checkpoint has already represented the first shot of aggression.

.

The Principality of Dolot is known as the land of mercenaries. Although it has a population of only three million, which is only half of the total population of Beamon, and its standing army only has ten regiments, there are a large number of mercenary groups stationed in Dolot.

, almost all the well-known mercenary groups on the mainland have offices here. The "Tornado" mercenary group founded by the Tomasi family, the second prince-in-law of the Duchy of Dolot alone, had a strength of 10,000 people. Even during the war,

, the Duchy of Dolot can mobilize a military force of at least 40,000 people. This number has already reached the total of the Behemoth Kingdom's two border guard armies, the Wolf Clan and the Fox Clan, guarding the northeastern and southeastern borders of the Danube Wilderness.

In addition, the Principality of Dolot is still affiliated to the San Francisco Empire, which is known as the three major military powers in the mainland and has the strongest infantry of the Aegean continent, the Silver Base Warriors. If the Principality of Dolot is to attack the San Francisco Empire in accordance with the will of the San Francisco Empire

The Kingdom of Meng, not to mention Feilengcui, an isolated island in the wilderness, even the entire Kingdom of Beamon will issue a "Thorn Grass Ring Recruitment Order" and call for mobilization of the entire population.

All the checkpoints in the wasteland have been removed, the portal to the Behemoth Kingdom has been opened, and Feileng Cui immediately became the next obstacle blocking the way.

Liu Zhenzhen had no time to fly to the salt-alkali forest to report the situation, so he immediately flew back to Robbie's checkpoint, urging the Musketeers to bury the bodies on the spot and get on the road immediately.

If it weren't for the countless efforts he put into capturing these Newtonian giant birds, Liu Zhencheng would have really wanted to throw away all these cumbersome giant birds at this moment.

Liu Zhenzhen also rode a flamingo to the Feilengcui line to search for traces of this enemy scout. The wasteland was too big and there were too many places to hide traces. For the sake of confidentiality, Liu Zhenzhen flew very high and found the movement.

The scouts who were waiting were, as expected, indeed heading towards Feilengcui. There were only about twenty of them in total. They actually used the flag of the diplomatic mission. Not to mention that the border checkpoints were not prepared, even when they arrived at Feilengcui.

Cui can still be caught off guard.

Knowing the situation would be much easier to handle. Liu Zhenzhen asked Guoguo to summon the fairy dragon, who could teleport and fly, to act as a temporary messenger. He immediately reported the information to Cui Beiqian. If there was an army of humans attacking

The flags of the envoys are coming to Feilengcui. When they come, they will all be disarmed immediately, leaving no one alive.

Two small armies, one behind the other, advanced in tandem on the wasteland, each with their own agenda.

Anyway, he couldn't go fast enough, so Liu Zhenhan immediately trained the Newtonian giant bird. After being starved and educated with sticks, Liu Zhenshaan whipped four giant birds to death on the spot, so that these somewhat intelligent monsters finally learned to be obedient.

Liu Zhenshao was originally reluctant to do this, but the time crunch and the anxiety that the war was about to ignite made him really unable to wait any longer.

After a week, Newton's Giant Bird has gradually become accustomed to having something riding on its back, getting used to having a bridle on its beak, and has begun to understand simple directional instructions. Because the wings on their backs are tied

In a few days, the wings and ribs began to bruise. Liu Zhenzhen had to untie the vines on the wings and ribs of these giant Newtonian birds. He was afraid that if he let them go, they would make a big roll and escape, so he simply used it in a very sinister way.

The dagger cut through the fleshy wings of these giant Newtonian birds.

Damn it! At most, after returning home, dilute the bile of Fei Wenli's venomous python and feed it to them! If not, help them sew their wings together! Liu Zhencheng is ready to burn the boat.

A week has passed. According to the speed at which the scouts are riding, it stands to reason that they have entered the Feilengcui territory, and Liu Zhencheng is still a full week away from home.

An impatient Liu Zhancheng told Adu to lead the team on his way. If he encountered humans, no matter what the banner was, he would kill them without mercy. He rode a flamingo and took Guoguo one step ahead and returned to Feilengcui.

Feilengcui's mentor Cui Bexi was also anxiously waiting for Liu Zhenzhen's return. The news reported by Fairy Dragon was so shocking that Cui Bexi couldn't even believe it. Why would the Human Duchy of Dolot attack the Kingdom of Beemeng and take such a step?

The despicable method of undeclared war, the two countries have always had economic and trade exchanges, and there is no such trigger as the desert humans kidnapping Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Out of caution, Cui Bexi even temporarily suppressed the idea of ​​reporting to the temple.

Once this matter is true, it will be a real disaster for the Kingdom of Behemoth. After the war, the Western Front Army is still resting in the desert oasis. The entire Northeast Province and Southeast Province currently only have ten regiments each.

If there really is a war, it will take at least half a month for the large human army to reach the south bank of the Sanggan River under the mobilization of the whole people. Although the preparation time for the national mobilization is a bit hasty, it is still barely enough.

What Cui Beiqian is most worried about is that if this matter is Richard's nonsense, there is still room for redemption.

So Liu Zhencheng had just returned to Feilengcui, and the first words of the beautiful snake instructor were: Richard, is the news you said true or false?

"All seven of Wolfe's checkpoints in the Danube Wilderness were leveled, and there was no time to even send out the alarm. Do you think it's true or not?" Liu Zhenzhen told some of the tragic scenes he witnessed at the checkpoints.

After everyone heard this, Cui Beiqian's face became extremely ugly.

"Hurry up and retreat. The kingdom currently has insufficient military strength and it is impossible to support us. We can only retreat to the north of Sanggan River." The beauty snake instructor's heart also went cold. If this is really an invasion, it will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the current situation.

Feilengcui is disastrous. In the entire southern wasteland, the only territory is Feilengcui. There are no other territories here that can respond to each other and rush for help. The hills here are continuous, which is conducive to cavalry charges.

"That won't work. The responsibility of a noble is to defend the territory. If you retreat without a fight, you will be sent to the trial!" Liu Zhensha has studied Behemoth's law recently, and of course he can't agree. He is afraid that someone is secretly catching his sore feet.

Woolen cloth.

Silly boy! If you die on the battlefield, the Great Shaman Wei'an will really climb out of the temple window and jump to the balcony. The beautiful snake instructor thought to himself.

"Why does Dolot want to go to war with our Behemoth Kingdom?" Helen found it incredible: "We are much poorer than Mengke than humans."

When Liu Zhencheng heard what Helen said, the scene of the wolf cavalry having their tails cut off came to mind again.

"Damn it! Catch those scouts first and ask them what the reason is!" Liu Zhanshaan gritted his teeth and said, "There must be a high-ranking noble among these human scouts."

"Lend me the flamingo and I will report to the temple immediately." The beautiful snake instructor took a deep breath and said slowly.

"Let's seize those scouts first. There are not many scouts. Fei Lengcui still has this ability. Ask them about their situation before making a decision." Liu Zhenzhen said: "Anyway, we have Flamingo now. Upward.

It’s very convenient to deliver news, and it doesn’t matter how long it takes.”

"Richard, you are much calmer now than before." Cui Bexi sighed happily.

"Scouts are the best scouts. The scouts of any army are composed of top soldiers with excellent martial arts skills and flexible minds. We must be prepared for emergencies. I suspect that these human scouts may be equipped with expensive serial crossbows. Otherwise, they

It is impossible to kill the brave Wolfe at such a fast speed." Liu Zhenzhen added: "All militiamen must be carefully prepared. The cavalry team will search immediately. Remember, what I need is alive."

"Leave it to me." Corina nodded.
