Chapter 389
2014-08-16
The next day, dawn. The night wind has not dissipated, and the grass dew is crystal clear.Tang En had the quietest night in the past three or four days. Although he has been bumping on horseback, he has not rested. But in my heart, it was like unloading a heavy burden, and I was especially relaxed.
Yes, the space pupil on the left shoulder is still unresponsive!
The past few days Tang En was miserable because of this pit. He often spent half a day rushing on his way, but after arriving in a city, he couldn't take a rest and moved again in embarrassment. This is only physical, although tired but still able to bear it. The key is the heavy psychological pressure that exists all the time. It feels like a Death God with a scythe blowing from the back of his neck, and he keeps thinking about it, die, die... why? Not dead?
Death is scary, but waiting for it is even harder!
......
For a moment, in the morning mist at the end of the official road, a city outline faintly appeared.
Tang En did not detour around the city as before, but went straight to this unknown city. No way, he is relaxed now, but the horse that was urged to gallop all night can't bear it, and he has to change a new one.
As you get closer, the general scale of the city wall comes into view. This should be a small city. Tang En came at the right time. When he rushed to the city, the city gate just opened slowly.
Throwing down ten Copper Coins to enter the city, Tang En became the first passerby in the city today.
At such a time, most of the people in this city have not woken up. The street was deserted, and there were no shops open, nor any silhouettes. The sound of clattering horses' hooves stepping on the bluestone floor was particularly clear and clean.
Tang En drove a horse for a while before meeting a citizen woman who got up early to buy vegetables. I got off the horse and found out the location of Ma Shi, just as I thanked him and left. Suddenly, a childish and slightly sharp voice broke the tranquility of the city.
"Outside the number! Outside the number! The bandits in gray have successfully raided, and the regular Titus army has been defeated. Outside the number, outside the number..." Turning his head slowly, he saw a newsboy waving paper rushed out of the street corner, his face flushed red, and he desperately shouted...
......
......
p>The name Grey Cloth Armed Force is officially a taboo, so when it is used, it is usually followed by bandits, rioters, etc. suffixes. This newsboy obviously doesn't understand the complex and profound meaning of it. He is shouting so hard now, but he just thinks that he has caught a selling point, hoping to attract people's attention and sell the newspaper in make a move.
There is no doubt that he has a good entry point and succeeds in attracting people's attention. When passing by here, Tang En and a few citizens bought copies.
Opening the newspaper, the headlines on the front page, Tang En quickly scanned it, touched his nose, and was a little stunned for a while.
The newsboy is not a headliner, and the words he shouted before are not watery, which is almost the truth. merely this important event, but the content is not much, it only occupies the scope of the size of the tofu block on the front page of the newspaper.
There are no specific details of the battle, just a few sentences of introduction. It is said that when the regular army of Titus was about to approach the garrison of the bandits in gray, they were careless for a while, and were succeeded by the sneak attack, and then they were defeated. Most of the words that followed were ridiculing the bandits in gray for not following the rules of the battlefield, doing such villainy behaviors, etc., and finally comforting the Titus regular army to learn a lesson and fight back again.
The content behind this is of course nonsense. On the battlefield, the winner is the king. In addition, this sneak attack strategy will be used as long as a general has a chance, and it has nothing to do with the behavior of the villain. I believe that if the regular army succeeds in this strategy, then there must be deep plans and distant thoughts, flexible use of tactics and other words.
As for what to say about getting back together, it's also a joke. It's not that Tang En doesn't believe that the Titus Empire has this ability. Although the front line is fighting fiercely, it can still be done with an army again. But no matter what, this defeated army is not to be missed.
In fact, Tang En had a hunch in his heart when he heard that the army had only 35,000 people. If it is the previous Grey Cloth Armed Force, this number is indeed enough. Even if it cannot be defeated at one time, it can still be done by entanglement to weaken the strength of the Grey Cloth Armed Force so that it does not affect the frontline operations.
But now, when they came out from Tang En, the Grey Cloth Armed Force light combatants were close to 50,000, and they were preparing to build Fifth Army. And because of the hypothetical battle plan, veterans and recruits, etc., the actual battle strength of Grey Cloth Armed Force is not low. Although I can't mention on equal terms with the Three Great Legions on the front line, I have no problem with the soldiers who are either eliminated or second-rate in the Armament Division.
So according to Tang En's guess, this regular army, which was temporarily assembled by the Northern Armed Forces, not only failed to see what the Grey Cloth Armed Force garrison looked like, but now it must have been defeated and collapsed across the board. , most of the surviving soldiers are probably fleeing in wild mountains...
...
"Oh, the Grey Cloth Armed Force is amazing!"
"The defeat of more than 30,000 regular soldiers in one fell swoop... Are you sure you're not kidding?"
"There's a lot of fun to watch..."
...
One after another, screams rang out among the few early-rising citizens. Although the newspapers are now in black and white, most people still can't believe the news for a while.
came back to his senses, Tang En grinned and turned over on the horse's back.
This news cannot be concealed. Of course, if it was before, the official newspapers may not mention this matter. But now everyone knows that Grey Cloth Armed Force has its own means of publicity. If the official does not say it now, it will be more passive when Grey Cloth Armed Force is exposed. However, the official is just talking about it. Naturally, it will not be exaggerated, so there is such a big news, but it only occupies such a small page.
Of course, these things have little to do with the current Tang En. The Grey Cloth Armed Force garrison has been exposed, and although the regulars are now defeated, there must be heavy troops along the way to the garrison. The reason is also very simple, one is to monitor the movement of the Grey Cloth Armed Force. The second is to prevent people in the city from sneaking out and join the Grey Cloth Armed Force. After all, the location of the station has been exposed.
So after thinking about it, Tang En found that he still could not get any help and could only continue to run the Condition.
The road to the horse market was still calm, but when Tang En repurchased a steed and trotted out of the city. The whole city boiled over because of the contents of the newspaper.
Wherever he goes, Tang En's ears can easily pick up opinions and comments about this event. At this time, I can see the effect of Joah's early publicity. Most of the citizens' remarks are in favor of the Grey Cloth Armed Force. While secretly supporting the Grey Cloth Armed Force, they scolded the Titus aristocracy and prepared to see them. jokes and more.
"tsk tsk, this is the rhythm of fire..." Tang En sighed with emotion after smashing his mouth twice.
This is not far from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, so I got the news first. After it gradually spreads out, the entire north will be shaken by three earthquakes.
Tang En already had some hunch in his heart that the Grey Cloth Armed Force would really become an independent political force and appear in front of the world.
This is not an exaggeration. Decades of silent struggle have given it such a foundation. At that time, there must be a lot of people who respond with a raised arm and a shout, which can be seen from the effect of the farm's publicity.
And I have to say that the opportunity now is very good. The Titus Empire is too busy at war with the North Desolate Tribe, and is even at a disadvantage now, and simply can't draw much power to deal with the confidant Grey Cloth Armed Force. On the other hand, Grey Cloth Armed Force has a lot to do with this opportunity. After consolidating the rear, he will definitely aim at wider places, such as cities...
Tang En can see this, Luosha is naturally more impossible, so the next step must be A meeting of wind and clouds, the waves hit the shore!
……
In the midst of all kinds of lively discussions, Tang En exited the city gate and headed for Northwest again.
If someone plots his itinerary on a map, he will find that he basically walks around the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, and there is also a fairly familiar city name in the distance...
At noon, Tang En arrived in a city again. Stop for a while, eat lunch, and then prepare some horse supplies and set off again. The next city is not close to here, and it is conservatively estimated that it will take a whole day and midnight to arrive.
And just after leaving the city, Tang En was shocked by the constantly rising and falling figure of the horse, and then subconsciously looked towards the left shoulder position. There, it's getting a little hot...
After a while, Tang En shook his head slightly, and said with a grin, "Fuck, I'm praying for you in vain, it's not powerful at all!"
That's right, the effect of the Eye of Space has come again! This shows that Oliver and the others have successfully escaped, or killed the Light God Temple team.
As a result, Tang En was naturally a little dejected. Although I had a hunch that Oliver and the others would not die so easily, there was always some hope. And what is even more depressing is that the entire group of Light God Temple not only failed to annihilate the other party, but also failed to delay the time...
The sensing of the Space Eye is limited by distance, although it is imprecise, But it is generally known that with the strength of Grand Magician, the sensing range should be hundreds of kilometers. As long as they can give Tang En some time to rush out of this range, it will undoubtedly be difficult for them to find Samp. After all, if they don't know the direction, they will become headless flies...
Phew...shrugged, let out a long sigh, Tang En quickly packs up his mood. The result is already like this. It's not helpful to be discouraged or something. Now I can only continue to run and silently consider the next plot against...
"It's up to you now, please, you must do your best! ”
