Chapter 32: Changes in Heaven and Earth 【4000】(1/2)
In order to cut off the dragon head in the water palace, the two spent two days and nights!
When the dragon head was put into the seal scroll, Gao Wen began to wonder how the "mortal dragon slaying" that was often described in the storybooks were done.
It took him and Duoduo two days and night to cut down a dead dragon head, because of this, Duoduo's original sharp claws were polished to a round light... This is a demon wolf that has become a spirit, and there are a lot of weapons around him that can be called magical weapons.
Under such circumstances, no matter how the verbal description "a mortal slays the dragon with a wooden sword" and tells it to Gao Wen, it would be a bit insulting his IQ.
After working in this water palace for two days, when the two finally came out of the bottom of the river with satisfaction, the battle of Hangu Pass outside had already stopped.
The garrison stationed at Hangu Pass did not wait for the reinforcements they were looking forward to. In disappointment, a group of generals decided to advance deeper into the desert.
This is seeking death!
But there was no way. The emperor was in power and could not retreat, and the products around Hangu Pass could not supply a army with a population of up to 500,000 and a wealth of tens of thousands of injured people.
As a last resort, the army could only continue to move forward, while collecting the surrounding food and herbs, while looking forward to discovering a place of rich water and grass for the army to live in.
But because of this, a large number of "desergeants" began to appear in the expeditionary army.
Not everyone is willing to hit the end of the world with just one word from the emperor!!!
They also have wives, children, and young people. They also want to be rich and frugal, and they can fight hard because of the difficulties of national hatred, but they don’t want to throw their whole life into this yellow sand!
Especially now, without the support supply, the only thought in the mind of this group of people is that their empire has betrayed them.
There are more and more deserters.
On the first day when the Golden Armor General decided to advance, more than a dozen escaped soldiers were caught back that night.
When the army drove fifty miles outside Hangu Pass, the fleeing people had already begun to use small teams.
To this day, when the first thousand-man team that officially left the Expeditionary Force group on the grounds of insisting on "not leaving the city without obtaining the imperial military order", even with the heroic spirit of the Golden Armor General, he felt the heartfelt powerlessness.
Yes, they were abandoned...
The empire needs stability. For example, the guys who survived the bloody battle with the insects after quelling the internal war, are the source of the most unstable internal source.
An official deceives the people. Ordinary people can only think of their bad luck when they encounter it. But when these veterans see it, they argue with them with red eyes. Even if one of them is unfair, they will even kill people in the street!
What's going on?
A group of big-headed soldiers actually dare to resist the ruling class?
The empire recruited soldiers for the sake of national stability, to consolidate the foundation of ruling, and to the emperor's rights.
But when these soldiers complete their own tasks and have become the root of instability, it is natural to be abandoned.
The Golden Armor General had known these things before he went to war.
Even the reason why the army is mixed with the "outlier" generals and officers, and the number is still so large, is that it is intentional for the army.
No matter what their identity is, these aliens are meritorious ministers to the empire. Since it is not easy to deal with them openly, then follow the expeditionary army to the end of the world and put a perfect end to your life of loyalty to the empire.
A very cruel thing.
But in the eyes of the ruling class, it seems so natural.
The Golden Armor General recognized it!
Loyal to the empire.
Loyal to the king.
Since the king wants him to die, what reason does he have not to go?
If the king wants his minister to die, his minister has to die!
As for the brothers around him who trusted him and were willing to follow him, General Jinjia could only say that he would kowtow and apologize until after his death to repay the faults he had accumulated during his lifetime.
The first thousand-man team left the expeditionary force, and the military headquarters did not issue a pursuing order.
So, that night, more troops chose to escape.
The Golden Armor General didn't care.
Because he knew what kind of consequence these "desergers" would end up.
In this prehistoric land full of demons, there are only a few who can escape back to the empire. Because of their own deserter, these few people can only choose to hide their names after returning to the empire, and can no longer cause any chaos as before.
Since that's the case, I'll leave.
Besides.
The Golden Armored General didn't believe it. With enough weapons and an elite team of imperial warriors, they really couldn't make a way out in this yellow sand?
He doesn't believe it!!!
......
......
The expeditionary force in the advance state began to collapse.
Behind it.
The two men who were hanging behind their army were slowly following them.
Well, it is mainly because the direction of this army is heading directly to Yangguan. One person and one wolf are following them, which can basically be said to be on the way...
Soon, under the eyes of the two, another team of thousands of people split from the army, and after staying for a while, they began to turn around.
Behind the yellow sand.
Lang Duoduo, who was hugged by Gao Wen, hummed softly.
"Dog man, do you think these people are a bunch of fools?"
"You ask me?"
"There are you and me here! I won't ask who you are going!"
"Where do I know where to go?"
Gao Wen rolled her eyes: "Why do you care about so much? If you like to leave, just leave. It has nothing to do with us anyway."
"But...but...ah...ah...ah...ah...so annoying. I tell you, if there are such deserters in our tribe, we will definitely kill you as soon as possible!"
"oh."
"What are you!"
"They are not from your tribe, maybe they have their own ideas?"
"I... I'll bite you to death!"
With a whistle, the little female wolf rushed over was making a fuss.
Wait until the trouble is almost done.
The two people who felt tired continued to follow the rear of the army.
As we watched the number of this army gradually became more and more refined, the quality became more and more elite.
Um.
A very strange thing.
Most of the people who chose to leave were auxiliary services responsible for baggage, while not many of the Expeditionary Force's truly important core troops turned around and left.
In this way, three days later, Gao Wen was speechless when he saw this scene in front of him.
Why?
Because he found that the strange "bearing spirit" shadow around those who turned around and left was not weak, but became clearer. On the contrary, as these people left, the "bearing spirit" in the main army of this expeditionary army began to become blurred...
This is crazy!
The clearer the possessed spirit, the faster it will die. If it fades, wouldn’t it have hope of escaping and ascending to heaven?
The deserter died quickly, but the one who advanced was going to escape?
What the hell is this!
What, can these people really fight to the horizon???
Damn, if you fight forward, it will be the territory of the Underworld!!!
Because of this, Gao Wen wanted to continue to observe, but not far ahead, turning a corner was his own territory. After thinking for a while, Gao Wen did not choose to continue to follow up.
Instead, he took the little female wolf out of the team.
This was the discussion with Cha before.
Not everything needs to be answered. The stronger the curiosity, the faster the death may be.
But he never knew that he chose to return home.
Just one eleven days after he left, the expeditionary force, whose number had been reduced from 510,000 to 260,000, was found at the end of the yellow sand. On the other side of the crack, another world of flowers and plants could be seen vaguely.
Stepping by the door, there is a different world behind it!
At the end of the sky, cross the trapped dragon and ascend to heaven!
There is no way out!!!
......
Since the army stepped through this space crack, the space crack closed in just three days.
At the same time.
A little further west, a valley 180 miles away.
Someone was wearing a red dress and holding a pot of good wine in his hand, and was roaring to the sky in anger.
"How dare you let them go! How dare you let them go!!!"
“…”
