After the people in the room were dealt with, Lei Gong and the others waved their hands, and everyone slowly descended the city wall. When they reached the top and bottom of the city wall, they first carefully observed the surroundings, and finally found that there was no one in the entire camp. Then he sneaked towards the city gate.
There should be guards at the city gate, but when Lei Gong and others sneaked over, they didn't find anyone, but the city gates were all bolted.
Several people looked at each other and really didn't know what to say. This was the first time they had seen such a loosely guarded fortress.
At this time, other people were on guard outside. It was up to Lei Gong to open the city gate. You must know that the bolts of this kind of city gate are very heavy, and ordinary people cannot move it at all.
Lei Gong forcefully lifted up the door bolt, then put the door bolt aside, and then carefully opened the city gate. However, he did not expect that the door shaft of the city gate had not been oiled for a long time. This pull It opened and made a very harsh sound, which made several people nervous for a while.
Several people looked around carefully, but did not find any movement. This made several people breathe a sigh of relief and became even more disappointed with this copycat.
After Lei Gong opened the door, they lit the torch and waved it constantly. The Blood Skeleton and others in the distance also saw the torch. The Blood Skeleton said happily: "Okay, I got it, let's move forward." After saying that, he patted his horse and rushed over first.
Following the movement of the Blood Skull, everyone else also moved, and the army surged towards Hutou Village like a tide. They were getting closer and closer to Hutou Village, and the people there finally had some reaction. They had no choice but to react. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry were charging behind them. The shock caused by this alone was enough to make people think It was an earthquake, not to mention the sound like muffled thunder.
Just when there was an uproar in Hutou Village and people ran out of the room in panic, the cavalry from Shidazhai. They have already entered Hutou Village.
As soon as the cavalry from the Ten Great Villages entered Hutou Village, Hutou Village was completely destroyed. The panicked people in Hutou Village could not stop these wolf-like and tiger-like cavalry.
The entire Hutou Village screamed for death. The sound lasted until dawn. During this period, he in Hutou Village thought about running away and setting off a wolf smoke, but it was a pity. They didn't have that chance. Fire Phoenix, who knew something about Hutou Village, certainly couldn't let the people here do such a thing. Hutou Village was completely destroyed, and no one escaped. The most important thing is that they didn't even light the beacon fire, which means that the people in Huhun Kingdom don't know that Hutou Village has been taken down yet.
After taking over the Hutou Village, the people from the Ten Great Villages were not in a hurry to kill in the Huhun Kingdom. They first plundered everything in Hutou Village, and then sent people back to the desert, asking Damo to send people immediately to demolish Hutou Village.
That's right, they want to demolish Hutou Village. Hutou Village is made of stones and wood, and these things are good things for the desert, which is very windy and sandy. But there are not many stones and wood, so in the desert, even if people want to build cities, they usually are earth cities. The lifespan of a Tucheng cannot be compared with that of a stone city, so even stones are a good thing for people in the desert.
Of course, the main thing is. After demolishing the city, the Tiger Soul Kingdom wants to build this city in the future, but it will not be that easy. If the people from the Tiger Soul Kingdom don't build the city here, then it will be even more difficult for them to enter the Tiger Soul Kingdom to rob. It's easier.
However, the people from the Ten Great Villages did not stop. They were asking people to demolish the Hutou Village from behind, but they led a large group of people and went straight into the Tiger Soul Country.
The total number of the sand bandit coalition that entered the Tiger Soul Country this time was around 500,000. Among them, nearly 400,000 were dispatched from the ten major villages, and the rest were all from other small villages.
An army of nearly half a million people is not a small number, and they are different from the armies of the Blade Soul Kingdom or other countries. Even if the armies of other countries enter the Tiger Soul Kingdom, under normal circumstances, It is rare to touch those civilians, because those civilians themselves have nothing and have little fighting power, and there is no benefit in touching those civilians.
But the situation in each village in the desert is different. They are bandits, and they come specifically to steal things. They don't care whether you are a commoner or a noble. As long as they can rob, they will rob first.
Therefore, after the people from the Shidazhai entered the desert, they were like locusts crossing the border. All the villages in the Tiger Soul Country were looted by them. They not only robbed things and food, but also robbed women.
Just when the people of Shidazhai were carrying out a large-scale operation, the people of Huhun Kingdom finally knew that the sand thieves from the desert were coming. The whole Huhun Kingdom was shocked for a moment, and then the large troops started to move towards Shidazhai. The people from Dazhai rushed over.
It is a pity that they arrived a little late. The people of Shidazhai had a plan for their actions this time. They had already planned their advance route, and also planned their retreat route. When they advanced, they could Grab once, and when you retreat, you can grab again. By the time the Huhun Kingdom's army arrives at Hutou Village, the people from the Ten Great Villages have already retreated to the desert, leaving only hundreds of thousands of soldiers for the Huhun Kingdom. The civilians were robbed of only their clothes, and the cottage was demolished in a mess.
The whole Huhun Kingdom was furious. They did not expect that something like this would happen. Hutou Village was breached without a sound, and so many things in the country were robbed.
This time the Huhun Kingdom suffered a great loss. Hutou Village was destroyed and the entire village was demolished. You must know that the Tiger Soul Nation spent a lot of time building this village. I used a lot of things, but I didn't expect that they would be dismantled just like that.
The Huhun Kingdom began to make arrangements for the victims who had been robbed, and at the same time began to rebuild Hutou Village. At the same time, it began to prepare its army, preparing to enter the desert and retaliate against the people of the ten villages.
Zhao Hai also heard the actions of the ten strongholds, but he didn't pay attention. Not to mention a country like Tiger Soul Country, which is all infantry, even a country like Wolf Soul Country, which is all cavalry, entering the desert. If there is no benefit at all, the Tiger Soul Kingdom will not be able to get any benefits if they enter the desert, so Zhao Hai is not nervous at all.
During this period of time, Zhao Hai's research has reached a very important moment, and they can basically improve the environment in the desert.
They can use bottle trees and pasture to partially improve the desert environment first. Although they cannot make the land in the desert arable, they can make the land here grazing, but there is a condition. That is, the number of bottle trees must be enough.
The bottle trees in the desert are like small pools. They can store rainwater and release it when needed to support the growth of grass in the desert.
Of course, those bottle trees cannot support the growth of grass for a year. The water in the bottle trees will stop when it is released to a certain extent. The water is reserved for the bottle trees themselves, so that the water in the bottle trees The water allows them to persist until the rainy season, and the grass will leave seeds during this period. When the next rainy season comes, the bottle trees will continue to absorb water, and the grass will grow during the rainy season. In this way, slowly, The desert can become like a grassland.
Now Zhao Hai and the others are studying pasture. The pasture must have strong drought resistance and must grow lushly. In this way, all the pasture will not be eaten by the livestock. After the old pasture dies, it will become new pasture. Nutrients can also have the effect of fertilizing the fields.
Now the bottle tree has completely met the requirements, but the pasture has not met the requirements. The pasture still needs to be cultivated several times. However, they may have the seeds of the pasture meet their requirements before today's rainy season. In this way They can make a large-scale improvement to the entire desert environment during the rainy season.
So now, Zhao Hai and the others are carrying out breeding work to cultivate large quantities of bottle tree and pasture seeds for use in the rainy season.
Time passed little by little. One month before the rainy season came, there was a burst of cheers in Laorou Village. The grass seeds that met Zhao Hai's requirements were finally cultivated. In other words, they could use this one. During the month of September, more seeds of this new grass were cultivated, and then when the rainy season came, the desert environment was improved.
In order to celebrate the arrival of this day, Zhao Hai and others sent letters to everyone in the ten villages, asking them to come to Laoren Village to celebrate the success of the improvement of forage seeds.
As soon as the people from Shidazhai got the news, they immediately came to Laorou Village. After they all arrived, Zhao Hai led them to the desert outside Laorou Village. There were many kinds of grass growing in the desert outside Laorou Village. Bottle trees, these bottle trees, grow every hundred meters or so, and the grass that grows next to the bottle trees grows very well and is very lush.
Zhao Hai pointed at the bottle trees and said: "These bottle trees were originally mutant plants, but after being planted here for a long time, they have turned into ordinary plants. Although the bottle trees have turned into ordinary plants, they Their function has not changed. When the rainy season comes, the bottle trees can absorb a large amount of rain, so their root systems are very developed. When the rainy season is over, the bottle trees find that the outside land is too dry, and they can The water in the bottle is released little by little, and the water will nourish the grass so that the grass can grow normally."
Having said this, Zhao Hai paused for a moment, then he bent down and pulled up a piece of grass, pointed at the roots of the grass and said to everyone: "Have you seen the roots of this grass? This grass has also been improved. Their root system It is very developed. The grass on the ground can be about half a meter long at most, but their roots can reach two to three meters, and the roots of all the grass are connected together, like a big net, which can pass each other. Moisture, this is the most qualified batch of forage grasses that we have improved so far. They can not only absorb the moisture in the bottle trees, but also absorb the residual moisture deep in the sand layer. They are very strong in life." ( To be continued.)
