Of course, when he finally left the ruins of the mining area, Jiang Tian did not forget to pour the lake water temporarily collected in the "Dimensional Bubble" module into the entrances of the mines again. As a result, water overflowed until most of the hidden exits were reached. This way there will be no further trouble.
However, this also made him notice one thing, that is, he said that the lake water collected was turbid; however, the lake water poured out again was quite clear, with only some sediment residue at most; combined with the fact that it could not collect living animals restrictions, whether this can be used as a means of water purification.
Although this sudden episode that happened halfway only allowed Jiang Tian to stay near Alais City for one more day, it also reminded him of something. Because, according to the remaining thoughts of the unknown alien before it was wiped out, a certain mystery in this world is slowly reviving.
Therefore, the vitality of being a heterogeneous species is also gradually increasing tangibly and intangibly. In fact, the original scope of spiritual/dream influence of the monster in this stone pillar was the mine ruins around the small lake; but it has also slowly expanded to the surrounding villages and settlements, and even the river valley roads.
In addition, humans in this world also contain trace amounts of energy to varying degrees, which are slowly awakened/revealed; therefore, they are very suitable as sacrifices for alien absorption/blood sacrifices. This was also the reason why this monster kept an eye on him from afar and took the initiative to go into his dream to provoke Jiang Tian.
Because the abundant energy/bloodline limit contained in his body is so suitable as a carrier of will transfer, so much so that it attracts it to hit the iron plate like a moth to a flame. But this is not enough to make people boast, because in its mind, it passed by at least several threatening existences.
This also gave Jiang Tian a faint sense of urgency. It was necessary for him to speed up the pace of action and the progress of military campaigns, expand and consolidate the existing sphere of influence; only then could he concentrate all his vast resources, including manpower and material resources, to face the Another wave of the coming era.
After all, the aliens appearing in groups among the enemy troops, as well as the strange things that don't know when they will wake up, are the best warning and sign. Therefore, after the army set off again, Jiang Tian ordered to speed up while selecting the inheritance knights to form a surprise force.
Then, everyone is equipped with two horses and two saddles, one riding one and the other carrying weapons and armor, and he takes the lead personally. Along the narrow mountainous area in the upper reaches of the Severn Valley, they invaded hurriedly and slowly, reaching eleven cities including La Grande and Andiz in the Lozère province.
Without the need to consider logistical supplies for the time being, the heritage knights disguised as the orthodox army were the first to attack, and when the large cavalry came to cover them up, they almost always ended up falling. Even if someone accidentally discovers and notices them, they can still be pushed through with tyrannical force.
Moreover, after defeating or forcing the defenders to surrender and capture the city, this vanguard force, composed of more than ten companies, concentrated all the animals and horses in the formation to travel. Without too much stop and repair, they spread the news non-stop. Before leaving, rush to the next city.
Therefore, when this dusty army finally arrived at the city of Mende, the capital of the Lozère province and another important stronghold occupied by the Milan army, there was still a relaxed and unprepared atmosphere in the city; On the road, I encountered several groups of soldiers returning from robbery.
However, this time, the vigilance of the city gate defenders was higher than in other places, and they were also more responsible. After being interrogated carefully and carefully, Jiang Tian led the "orthodox" officers for a while; but because of the confessions of many prisoners, they were finally dealt with reluctantly.
However, the officer guarding the gate then restricted it, so that only dozens of orthodox officers led by Jiang Tian, together with some of the guards, could enter the city first; only after obtaining permission from the principal army headquarters in the city, the subsequent troops were allowed to enter the city; Not even willing to accept a bribe.
But it doesn't matter. Since Jiang Tian can enter the city, what happens next is completely out of their control. Later, the "Orthodox Army" soldiers who sneaked into the city in batches from other city gates gathered around Jiang Tian and regained their full armor.
Then, they wore the robes of the principality army, blocked the previous city gate with noise, and started making trouble on the spot. They also sent a signal to the dozen or so companies waiting not far outside the city to cooperate inside and outside. Therefore, by the time the gatekeeper officer realized something was wrong, it was too late.
At the same time, amidst the commotion of orders on the streets and the chaotic crowds of soldiers from the Principality, disheveled and with their trousers pulled up, rushing out of private houses, inns, and taverns, Jiang Tian led dozens of people. A heritage knight came to the headquarters.
Then it's the same old thing all over again. Although faced with a group of people and other armed personnel who were shouting and urgent military information and rushing in, the armored guards on duty outside the city hall reacted immediately and came forward with swords and spears to counterattack. Surround them and shout a warning to the inside;
However, under the attack of dozens of heritage knights who lifted their blouses to reveal their plate armor, the temporary front they formed based on their numbers was as fragile as paper. In the blink of an eye, they were knocked over, knocked down, and chopped to the ground; the next moment, more guards rushed out.
However, in front of dozens of heritage knights wearing plate armor, lowering their helmets to cover their faces, and wielding broadswords, axes, and hammers, they just blocked the encounter and were massacred one-sidedly. In the blink of an eye they broke through the resistance again and roared and roared into the city hall.
Then, some fish that slipped out of the net emerged from the pillars, stairs, and corners of the walls, and they rushed towards the river and strolled leisurely in the end. Then suddenly his eyes were dazzled or turned upside down, and he was thrown to the marble collage floor or hung on the wall.
Then, as lines of blood flowed down, he twitched slightly or vomited blood and then died. Therefore, the inheritance knights, who were rampaging and killing everyone, rushed all the way to the innermost garden; only at an outdoor tea party, they encountered some obstructions and obstacles.
They were a group of red swordsmen who were particularly good at combined attacks; they did not wear armor and were light in stature. While leaping back and forth to dodge the attacks of various long soldiers and heavy weapons, they wielded military straight swords and swift swords, constantly interacting with each other. Stabs and sneak attacks, in the gaps between the plate armor of those heritage knights;
Although it was not able to completely pierce or penetrate these armor gaps and cause fatal injuries, it also successfully caused many heritage knights to retreat due to injuries. At the same time, there was a man wearing a huge pointed ostrich hat. He muttered something and suddenly waved his hand and released something.
The three heritage knights who broke through the encirclement of the red-clothed swordsmen suddenly burst into flames. They were so startled that they hurriedly jumped into the nearby fountain pool. However, when they stood up again, the flames on their bodies were still not extinguished...
Just when most people couldn't help but change their expressions, they heard a voice shouting: "That's just an illusion, a cover-up that can't be put on the stage.". However, Jiang Tian, who was lagging behind, also walked into the garden, but in his field of vision, the green fire had no energy response at all.
But the man in the ostrich feather pointed hat changed his expression when he heard this. The next moment, he took out a small pot from his arms and threw a large cloud of white smoke forward. Then it turned into a burning cloud out of thin air. A barrier of fire clouds swept in several swordsmen in red.
In an instant, they screamed loudly, and there were obvious burns on the affected heads and faces, with the skin and flesh rotten and the clothes burning. At this time, a fierce roar of wind was heard, but a large clump of uprooted trees came crashing down with branches and leaves.
While at least seven or eight red-clothed swordsmen who were unable to dodge were knocked over and submerged by the roaring trees, the barrier of fire clouds burning out of thin air was also torn and scattered by the dense branches and leaves, and in the blink of an eye and then dissipated into the air;
The face of the man in the pointed hat also became extremely pale and pale. The next moment, he took out another white glass bottle and slammed it towards the ground. Suddenly, there was a loud bang and a large cloud of sparks and thick smoke flew away. Then, it was like reminding those heritage knights.
They took off their waists one after another, and hooked the gunpowder cans and incendiary cans hanging on their belts; some people put hand cannons on their armbands, and threw or fired them at the red swordsmen in front of them who were scrambling to retreat. It burst out with a bang; it was like a storm that knocked them down and overturned them.
Then, the big trees that were pulled out and came through the air one after another also blocked the retreat of these red swordsmen, causing them to be bumped and hung down, which seriously restricted their movement and fighting range; they were also charged by the inheritance knights. After getting close, he punched and slapped, causing numerous casualties...
Therefore, when Jiang Tian passed through the smoke, he shot and kicked several red swordsmen to death one after another. In the smoke, the swordsman in red tried to get up and attack; the man in the pointed hat saw that there was no way to escape, and he couldn't help but throw him down. On the ground; pointing in one direction and shouting: "I surrender, the legion commander is there."
After a while, a middle-aged general who was hiding under a tent that had been knocked down by a tree, with gray temples and a solemn appearance, and several chains hanging on his chest, was also dragged out; he patted the dust and branches on his body and tried to stand up. He straightened his body and raised his head towards Jiang Tian and said tremblingly:
"The Principality of Milan, Commander of the Turin Army, Royal Privy Seal, Count Monlière, surrender to you; I hope to receive a ransom of my identity and treatment that matches my status..."
And in the capital of Ardèche province, the military camp of the Principality of Milan outside the city of Obna. Under the offensive of the Free Army who came out of the city overnight to attack, they were drowned in fireworks and the sound of fighting. When daylight returned, only prisoners and corpses remained in the Milanese camp.
"I have done what I promised." Sirano, the big-nosed swordsman who was looking at all this, also said in a deep voice: "I hope you can also keep your promise and give me and Roxana a happy life." A place of refuge from strife and danger.”
"Please rest assured, I have sworn with the sword in my hand, and I will not break my promise again." Thiago, the captain of the team who had just lifted the siege crisis, also said in a relaxed and cheerful mood: "I have also written a letter of recommendation. As long as you bring the person out, he can be sent to Avignon immediately."
"At least that place has been thoroughly cleaned up from top to bottom by the chief's army, and a local joint defense and protection system has been established." Thiago then added: "Perhaps there is nothing like this in the huge kingdom. A safer and calmer place.”
"But after you go back, how will you deal with the questioning and cross-examination of those Milanese nobles? Do you need some help from me?" Thiago then suggested: "I can try to let you rescue some of the prisoners, and then serve as your What’s the testimony of your escape?”
