A quick glance revealed that such a huge team was surrounding the Yeying barrier. Under the dim light, they stood as tall as wood, resolute and cold, and stood motionless there as if they were as indestructible as steel.
They didn't dare to take another look, for fear of being discovered by the sneaky figure, so they turned around and evacuated quickly. When they reached a relatively safe area, they couldn't help but look back in confusion...
I saw that in the terrifying atmosphere created by the night, those mysterious and deep shadows were like lifeless water that would choose people and devour them.
Their pupils dilated for a while, and this time they no longer hesitated and ran away as if there was a ghost chasing them behind them.
And in the cracks in the walls of the Ye camp, pairs of wide-open eyes were staring at the spies who had fled, and finally left happily.
——
"Report——"
"explain."
"Ye, there are many, many people guarding the outside of Ye Camp, all wearing armor and helmets, standing side by side, guarding the entire Ye Camp's barriers tightly and airtight."
"Many people? How many?"
"No, I'm not sure, but there should be several thousand people."
"Thousands of people are wearing armor and helmets?" She Kou, the commander-in-chief of the Julu Kingdom, looked suspicious after hearing this.
Several scouts all responded unanimously: "Looking at his figure, he is indeed wearing armor and a helmet, and is fully armed."
She Kou looked at his adjutant Musen Zhang and said, "Sen Zhang, do you think there is something wrong with Ye Ying's actions?"
Mu Senzhang rolled his eyes, and after some thought he said, "Could it be that the Ye camp already knew that someone would launch a night attack, so it defended all night and was ready to prepare?"
"I can't say for sure, but even if we are wary of someone attacking at night, we shouldn't go into such a big fight. The whole army sends thousands of people to stand outside to guard -" Suddenly, She Kou's eyes widened and he asked with a weird look on his face. Scout: "You said there were thousands of people stationed outside Ye Camp?"
Musen Zhang looked at She Kou speechlessly: "Commander, you just realized it now?"
"If there are so many people left in Ye camp... I never expected that each country is only allowed to have 6,000 troops. Yuan Xingzhou sent troops to Hongsheng, but only brought 1, 2,000, or 2,000 to 3,000. people?"
She Kou had earlier received the news that the camp of Hongsheng Kingdom had been raided by Yuan Xingzhou of Ye Kingdom and the "Cangxuan Order" had been seized. This matter could not be concealed. When he learned about it, he believed that several other countries had also taken possession of it. To the wind.
Although this incident was quite surprising, it was far less sensational and shocking than Zheng Quchi's consecutive defeats of both countries in Yeying.
At that time, everyone's focus was that Yuan Xingzhou was able to win by chance while General Hong Shengguo went out to destroy the Ye camp. Once the battle officially started, how could he, a pretty face and soft-footed shrimp, be the opponent in Shen Tangzhong? .
But just now I suddenly heard that Yuan Xingzhou had taken down thousands of people in the Hongshengguo camp with only one or two thousand men, and achieved a complete victory. This was unusual.
Even if there is no commander in chief, the soldiers of Hongsheng Kingdom are not vegetarians. In addition, there are still two adjutants, so they will not be defeated and annihilated by only one or two thousand people, right?
"It seems that Ye State really has a pair of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks this time." Musen Zhang could only say this.
She Kou waved his hand and hummed: "Regardless of the other countries, which country has simple people? Shen Tangzhong and Mu Jin suffered a big loss this time, all because they were arrogant and arrogant. If they rely on strength, this The two of them can be regarded as famous generals of the generation, but... compared to me, Julu, I am afraid they are far behind."
Musen Zhang shook his head and agreed: "Weak countries have strong generals, but in the end it is too late. Turning the tide cannot be changed overnight. Even if this Yuan Xingzhou has the talent of the God of War, and this Zheng Quchi has the ability to advise ministers, We are destined to lose in this battle between strong and weak."
"That's right..."
She Kou and Mu Sen Zhang Zheng were discussing, and they heard a report from the guards outside the main army's tent: "Commander, General Nan Chen Guomu is here to meet."
"pass."
When Mu Jin entered the account, the scouts had already retreated.
He boldly stepped into the tent without any greetings, and said angrily: "Just now, the scouts came to report that there were troops outside the Ye camp, and the fires and lights in the camp were turned off, and it was pitch dark. I thought there must be something behind this!"
She Kou saw Mu Jin so excited and knew that he had lost unjustly. His resentment was soaring in his heart. Whenever something happened in Ye camp, it was like a string of firecrackers, exploding at the first sign.
He asked someone to serve tea, called the master to sit down separately, and then asked: "How do you say this?"
"Zheng Quchi will not act without aim. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. She must be brewing some conspiracy." Mu Jin slapped his palm on the case and said firmly.
As the saying goes, one learns from the past, and She Kou actually believed in his judgment. He touched the chin of the stubble cutter and only asked: "Why do you think she did this?"
Mu Jin sneered: "What else could it be for? Of course it's to bluff people."
"tell me the story."
"She, Zheng Quchi, is not a person who is good at using military skills. She can only engage in some deceitful and deceitful tricks. She is extremely insidious. Even if she is so brave, she will not dare to fight us head-on. Now we have put all our troops on the map and made a shocking appearance, just to scare others from taking action against Ye camp easily."
"Then according to your opinion, what should we do?" She Kou asked again.
Mu Jin narrowed his gloomy eyes and said: "Of course I will take the initiative and fight with him head-on!"
She Kou did not fully agree with these words. After being taught a lesson by Mu Jin and Shen Tangzhong for rashly attacking Ye Ying, he somewhat put away some of his arrogance and contempt, especially after learning that there were several other people in Ye Ying. In the presence of Qianye Army.
Destroying Ye may not be an easy task, but the prerequisite for him to take action against Ye country is... paying the minimum price to get the maximum reward.
After all, his opponents also include Nishizawa Kingdom and Beiyuan Kingdom.
"By the way Mu Jin, I have shown the Ye gun you brought to an expert who is proficient in this business." She Kou seemed to suddenly remember, and asked his adjutant Musen Zhang to get a slender gun. ’s short gun, he changed the topic very bluntly but could not refuse.
When Mu Jin turned his head, he saw that it was the one that someone had picked up from the ground outside Ye Camp before he evacuated.
Mu Jin had always looked down upon the backward and primitive weapons of the Ye Kingdom, but this time was an exception. The main reason was that he had never seen such a strange throwing weapon. It looked like a spear, an arrow, and a thorn. And they are all tainted with some of their fierce characteristics.
"How? Do you have any explanation?" Mu Jin asked.
She Kou smiled and said: "Based on the power of this thing you described earlier, it can be thrown up to a hundred meters with one arm. It can break armor at close range. It can't be pulled out if it penetrates the flesh. Once pulled out, it will bleed. It is indeed true." An amazing weapon."
"This kind of weird weapon has never appeared in Ye State. Since the appearance of Zheng Quchi, strange things have happened frequently in Ye State. This general suspects that this weapon was made by Zheng Quchi!" Mu Jin clenched his fists and said.
But She Kou didn't quite believe it: "There is only the logo of Ye State's Military Weapon Supervisor on it, and there is no personal surname of her. If it was really designed by her, how could it be given away to others so easily?"
Craftsmen in this era regard copyright as their life. As long as they come up with some invention or create an unprecedented new product, they will hide it and wait for it to become famous in one fell swoop and be famous for generations. No one will choose to remain unknown. The truth is that your creations are given up to others.
Mu Jin was not entangled in this, he asked: "Tell me why it can have such great power? I think it is slender and light, but with human power, I have tried it with people, but it can't reach that far range at all." , and its degree of penetration is indeed surprising.”
"Instead of asking General She about this matter, General Mu, why not ask this Sima."
Before the person arrived, the voice came first, and saw a tall figure lifting the curtain and entering. He walked in without any communication. His attitude and words were completely arrogant and carefree, not caring about She Kou and others.
When She Kou saw him, he felt offended and stood up unconsciously: "Mo Ye, why are you here?"
"I heard that you sent someone to inquire about the situation in Ye camp, but they came back frightened. After hearing this, I was curious, so I came over to hear what kind of joke it was." Moye's eyes were as cold as a beast's. He glanced at the people present, and the smile on his lips was wild and lazy.
She Kou looked stiff.
When Mu Jin saw Mo Ye, he was no stranger to him. Although the two had never had any formal dealings with each other, he stood up, clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that the expert Commander She mentioned was Mo Sima. I have admired him for so long. Daimyo.”
Logically speaking, Mo Ye's official position is the smallest in this big tent, but everyone present has some scruples of one kind or another, and they don't dare to provoke him, so they treat him very politely.
"General Mu, aren't you curious as to why this slender spear is so powerful? I can explain it to you."
Before Mo Ye left, he took the modified javelin designed by Zheng Quchi from the adjutant: "She designed the fish scale shape on the tip of the spear..." He ran his fingers smoothly down on it, and the fingertips were intact: "Its use is convenient. If you go along, it will be smoother and easier to penetrate. If you go against it..." His face was expressionless, and he slid his finger backwards without hesitation, and immediately a line of blood seeped out from the fingertips.
Everyone's eyes changed.
The "fish scale"-like crouching posture actually stood up because of his inversion, and then scratched Mo Ye's skin.
"It hurts and the bleeding doesn't stop. This is why once it enters the body, it cannot be taken out."
"Sima——" Adjutant Musen Zhang hurried forward and took out the powder to stop his bleeding, but saw Mo Ye stretching his arms to prevent him from getting close.
He stared at the gun in his hand, raised one corner of his mouth, and smiled sarcastically: "It was made by Zheng Quchi. Who else else in Ye country except her? Do you believe it or not, she made it?" Such a fierce weapon, but it still leaves you some room. As long as you evacuate and go back to dig out the flesh to stop the bleeding, you still have a chance to survive. If you insist on attacking, you will be destroying yourself."
Although they were surprised by the exquisite design of this gun, they also felt that Mo Sima's mental state when they mentioned Zheng Quchi was not normal.
Mu Jin was aroused and asked carefully: "An ordinary short arrow is light and sharp, and cannot easily break armor. How does this weapon do it?"
"The scale design of the gun head increases the breakthrough power, and the overall gun is slender to reduce gravity. It is embedded with thin iron into the wooden body. The design is three feet to four feet, and the grip ring is full. If it is seven feet The force of the body and arms is comparable to that of an arrow. It should be astonishingly powerful, but the farther away it is, the weaker the force becomes. This rises and falls, and this rises and falls. Therefore, judging from its characteristics, setting a hundred meters is It has the best range.”
It was also when mentioning Zheng Quchi's works that Mo Ye would explain it so eloquently to an outsider.
"If you use a shield to block it..."
"Of course it's feasible. However, she had long expected that all countries would not send out shield troops, so she acted so unscrupulously and made a conspiracy."
"Mosima is really powerful. After just observing this gun for a little while, he was able to explain its advantages and disadvantages in detail. In this way, to deal with this kind of projectile, all you need to do is increase the fighting distance."
"But you can't never launch an attack." She Kou said.
Mu Jin's eyes darkened slightly, and he pretended to sigh: "At present, it seems that our Nanchen Kingdom has nothing to do with her Ye Army for the time being, but your Julu Kingdom can easily break this situation."
Speaking of this, Mu Jin turned his eyes to Mo Ye and said passionately: "Mu has heard about the three-bow crossbow bed created by Mo Sima for a long time. It can completely crush the hundreds of spear troops of the Ye Army. In terms of power and In terms of shooting range, how can their manpower compare to their equipment?"
Mo Ye was indifferent to his flattering words. He only focused on the javelin in his hand, as if through it, he could see Zheng Quchi's contradictory look of kindness and cruelty.
Hearing this, She Kou first laughed proudly, "Haha", and then said: "The country of Ye is just in the heat of war. How can it be compared with the glory of my giant deer? A mere new gun is really worth it." It is novel and unique, but in front of the three-bow bed crossbow, it is completely unsightly."
Musen Zhang also said: "In the face of absolute strength, no matter what plots and conspiracies they use, they will only make people laugh."
"That's right, the Julu Kingdom is good at weapons and dexterity. No one in the Seven Kingdoms can match it. In this case, we can't be deceived by Zheng Quchi's little tricks. It is the best to launch an attack tonight. It's the right time." Mu Jin encouraged.
Seeing that he was so eager to send troops, She Kou said disdainfully: "There is no need to pay attention to the right time and place to capture Ye. It can be done at any time."
What's the best time? Not needed at all.
However, Mu Jin tried his best to persuade him: "Commander She, today Mu led his troops to defect to you. Xize and Beiyuan must know about this later."
Since the war was confined to a small hunting ground, spies came and went, and no secrets could be kept. After all, no one could have the forethought and energy of Zheng Quchi to build a barrier to block it. The camp creates a secret base that no one can spy on.
"You mean, you're worried that they will come and interfere tomorrow?" She Kou now understood Mu Jin's worries.
"Mu is not sure of their thoughts, but it is impossible to stand still and allow the Julu family to grow."
Mu Jin's words struck a chord with She Kou. He looked at Mo Ye hesitantly: "Mo Ye, what do you think?"
Mo Ye squinted his eyes: "Since you are the commander-in-chief, you should make your own decisions."
Since Mo Ye was hit by Zheng Quchi's arrow and his heart was broken, he can no longer go to the battlefield. Therefore, he currently only serves as an internal adjutant in the military camp.
She Kou frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "It's better sooner rather than later. Well, we'll send out troops tonight!"
——
Boom——
A streak of purple and white lightning flashed across the night, and then, a thunder exploded overhead. In the dark Ye camp, Zheng Quchi opened the curtains and looked up to the sky.
"Adjutant Zheng, is it going to rain?" Liu Chaiji also ran out and asked in shock.
Just as he finished asking, another bolt of lightning shredded the sky, and a large white light illuminated the faces of the people around him.
Zheng Quchi scratched his head irritably: "It seems that God is destined not to let me have a good rest tonight." (End of Chapter)
