Chapter 285 Collusion inside and outside (1)
"Sir, the tincture oil and flammable materials in the city have been collected, and the military cave on the city tower is also being excavated. It is estimated that the layout will be completed in one day." Xiang Wen reported to Cons.
"Well, let's get some sort of tidying up the gatehouse, and there are enough materials to block the city gate." Cons nodded and said.
"Yes." Xiang Wen hesitated for a moment and couldn't help asking: "Sir, is this method effective?"
"I don't know, but if these puppets are still so dull, they should be able to implement them."
Cons said.
"Then why do you need to hide the soldiers' cave? Doing these physical work will cause the soldiers' combat effectiveness to drop sharply. Maybe you just need to remove the stairs." Xiang Wen asked.
"But maybe if we're still on the city tower, they won't come in? So be careful," Cons said.
"Yes, then I'll go and urge them now." Xiang Wen said hurriedly.
Time flies, Cons and the others have been trapped for more than a day, and the puppets under the city walls have also howled for more than a day.
Perhaps it has something to do with the puppets not turning into demons completely. They have no food, drink and rest at all. Their skin has been so dry that it is cracked, and the howling sound is completely hoarse, the volume is like the meow of the newborn kitten, and the force of slapping the city wall has become soft.
The Lei family army's confidence rose sharply after seeing this scene. It seems that although these guys are fearless, they are still human. As long as they spend ten or eight days like this, they don't need to be beaten, these puppets will die of thirst and starve to death.
Although I think so, no one wants to be trapped for ten or eight days. In such hot weather, most of the corpses in the city will smell bad. In another day, I may have insects. If the plague doesn’t go away, it will break out!
The Lei family soldiers did not have enough staff, and they didn't even have time to bury their own bodies, let alone tens of thousands of corpses. They could only expose the bodies to the sun.
So after receiving the order, the Lei family army immediately poured all the collected tincture oil on flammable materials. After pouring the whole city, the original smell of corpse was immediately covered by the smell of tincture oil. The Lei family army, who had been holding their breath, could finally take a breath.
The puppets soon discovered that the Lei family army on the city tower had disappeared. This situation made the puppets stunned, and the howlings that had been heard for more than a day stopped.
Just as the puppets were quiet and began to disperse the dense formations, the city gate fell down for some reason with a rumbling sound.
The puppet staying at the city gate didn't think about whether it was taken away by itself or how it was dropped. Without thinking, he stepped into the city directly. The howling sounded again.
The howling sounded like informing other puppets. The puppets from other places immediately flocked to the gap. Under their powerful squeeze, the puppets leaning against the door were even squeezed into the meat pie.
After the puppet spread a layer of bloody meat on both sides of the city gate and the ground, all 70,000 to 80,000 puppets squeezed into the city.
These puppets were quickly scattered throughout the city, either entering the buildings or wandering on the streets. They had no goal to find any, and they had to run around. Some puppets were about to walk up the city tower, but unfortunately the stairs were demolished, so the puppets that could not get up had to walk along the city wall.
At this moment, the Tibetan soldiers on the city tower opened, and all the Lei family troops emerged, and nearly 10,000 people blocked the city tower.
The puppets in the city immediately sensed their existence and surrounded the city walls. Unfortunately, all the stairs were demolished and they could only roar around the city walls just like they did not long ago.
The Lei family army ignored these puppets and immediately threw away the materials piled up on the city tower as soon as they came out. There were many people and strong forces. Not only did they block the open city gate at once, but they also piled up a slope leading to the outside of the city.
Hundreds of puppets who wanted to pass through the city gate were buried below, and only a dozen more lucky puppets ran out and climbed to the slope.
No one was interested in these dozen puppets, and dozens of cavalry charged and cut off their heads.
At this moment, all the cavalry surrounded the city wall, lit the rockets, and pointed the bow at the buildings in the city.
Cons sighed softly: "Oh, the entire Longzhan County is completely destroyed."
Then he waved his hand, and the continuous rockets immediately shot out, poured with tincture oil, filled with flammable materials, and the sky was dry for a long time, all the buildings were ignited instantly, and the hot flames and thick black smoke immediately soared into the sky.
The Lei family army used wet cloth to cover the mouths and noses of the people and quickly and without panic, leaving the city wall from the slope at the city gate. Without wet cloth, the stench caused by burning a large number of corpses was enough to make people suffocate and die immediately.
The Lei family army was thousands of meters away from Longzhan City, but they could still feel the hot energy, still smell the unpleasant stench, and even more so that shrill scream.
But no one responded, all the lotus was ashen, silently staring at the Long Cham City, which was enough to describe the words "fire burning the city" and "purgatory on earth".
There was a sudden sound of horse hooves behind him, and everyone immediately went to alert. Even when they saw several scouts hanging on the flags of the Fifth Battle Barracks appear, everyone did not relax.
Now they are already slap in the shadow of the bow and snake, and they are almost suspicious of any outsider, because no one can guarantee whether the Fifth Battle Barracks that are coming now have become puppets.
The scouts of the Fifth Battle Barracks first looked at Long Zhancheng, which was soaring in flames, and then noticed Cons's flag. One turned around and rode his horse away. The other people turned over and got off the horse and walked quickly to the team, knelt down on one knee and shouted: "See the lord!" These scouts suddenly found it a little weird. When they first saw these inner guards, they found that they were full of murderous intent on guarding themselves and others. They sighed at that time that they were worthy of being the elite, but after they spoke, their murderous intent disappeared immediately.
This is very strange. Can they know their identity from their voices?
The scouts didn't know that Cons and his group knew that the puppets could not speak, and they didn't speak, so when the puppets came to be wary, they immediately knew that they were normal people. As for whether they were detailed or not, this was not what they cared about.
Because no matter how big or small it is, there are no puppets that make them dislike it. It is completely the difference between humans and non-humans.
"Get up, the Fifth Battle Barracks arrived?" Cons asked, waved his hand.
"Yes, the Fifth Battle Barracks rushed to the road overnight after receiving the orders of the lord. Now they are ten kilometers away." The scout stood up and said this, looked at the red Long Zhancheng, and asked carefully: "Master, are we late?"
Although he was a low-ranking position, he was also a direct retainer of Cons, so he didn't have to be too restricted. If he had not been a direct retainer, he would not even have the qualifications to stand up and look up when facing Cons, the number one in the Lei family.
"Not too late, just right."
Cons sighed. Fortunately, there were no joint infantry dispatches at the same time. Otherwise, the losses would have been very large under the ambush of those puppets. At the same time, with the burden of infantry, his cavalry would not be able to leave so casually. At least it would not be so easy to break out of the encirclement.
Hearing this, the scout couldn't help but be stunned. Is this a slander? Of course, he didn't dare to look at the lord's expression carefully. He looked at the red Long Cham City again, and asked carefully: "Lord, was this Long Cham City burned by the enemy?"
He had to be careful about this problem. He just discovered that the expressions of the lord Cons and his colleagues around him were not so good-looking. In his opinion, the enemy troops who had broken through the city in advance noticed the arrival of reinforcements and burned Long Cham City with a torch when evacuating. Seeing that the city to be rescued was burned, no one would be in a good mood.
“We burned it.”
Cons's gentle words made the scout stunned.
The lord burned this city? Why? The lord was able to burn the city, which means that he entered the city. There was no trace of the enemy except a large number of corpses outside the city, which means that the lord drove away the enemy before entering the city. Since this is the case, why burn the city?
Wait! Why do the lord only has the inner guard flag and the first and second cavalry battalions flags, and there is no flag of the 12th War Barracks guarding Long Cham City?
After realizing this, he joined forces with the ugly lotus of everyone, and the action of burning the city that had been seized, the scout immediately inferred the result.
The defenders and people of Long Cham City died early in battle, and even a plague had occurred. The city was burned to eliminate the plague. With this idea, the scout's Lian was also very ugly. He did not expect that the enemy would dare to do the murder of the city.
Just as the scout was about to express his indignation, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from a distance. This time, everyone was not nervous. They looked at it and dozens of cavalrymen with the flag of the Fifth Battle Barracks appeared.
When the scout saw that his boss was coming, he immediately stepped aside and said nothing.
Okor quickly turned over and got off the horse and knelt on one knee: "See lord, please forgive me for your late crime."
Cons smiled, waved his hand and said, "What are you saying that you are not guilty? Second brother, you are so fast, get up."
"Thank you, lord." Okor stood up after thanking him, and when he came to Cons, he glanced at Weijie in secret, and Weijie Zelian turned his head ugly. No one noticed the private communication between the two of them.
After some politeness, Okol learned about the existence of the puppet soldiers and even more about the fact that Cons was trapped.
Okor was filled with indignation and cursed the damn puppet and puppet maker desperately, and asked Cons to hand over the search work to him, and he promised to find out all the ancestors in the shortest time.
However, his request was not approved by Cons.
After the Fifth Battle Barracks arrived, the camp was set up not long after, and the First to Fourth Battalions also appeared one after another. Now more than 60,000 elite troops have gathered around Cons. Not to mention the puppet soldiers, it is easy to destroy the city and the county.
When everyone thought they were about to counterattack the enemy's territory, Cons arranged five war barracks on the border guard, and then completely ignored the upcoming harvest period and summoned thirty guards and a large number of strong men, together with two cavalry battalions and inner guard battalions, gathered on the entire border line of Longzhan County.
When everyone was guessing how Cons arranged such a strange arrangement, Cons summoned all the officers and tyrants from the security camp to issue an order: "Send all people and search for all the boundaries of Longzhan County in a carpet style! Report it immediately if you find something strange!"
Others didn't know what was going on, but they were sent to the Inner Guard and Cavalry Battalion among the garrison and the savages. But they knew very well that their lord wanted to find the nest of the puppet soldiers.
No wonder the lord used such a large amount of manpower and material resources to not solve the problem of this puppet soldier, which is really a troublesome thing.
The Inner Guard and Cavalry Battalion, who understood what was going on, immediately became energetic and began to search inch by inch of land with their temporary subordinates.
Nearly 200,000 strong men gathered in Longzhan County, and the surrounding forces immediately became in a panic. However, strangely, the several forces that dispatched elite warriors to attack Longzhan County had no reaction at all, just pretend that this was not the case.
The five war barracks on the border were deeply indignant about this and asked Cons for invasion, but were strictly ordered to protect the internal and external borders. They also knew that the first priority now was to solve the existence of the puppet soldiers, so they had to swallow their anger.hf();
