Chapter 565

2013-12-16

Clouds rising in the eight directions!

In a matter of days, the situation on the front line has turned around several times. An Shuai forbearance for more than half a year finally broke out, waved his hand and ordered the barbarians on the whole line to attack violently, causing the situation to change for a while and fire beacons everywhere. And Cang Yan Legion is not unprepared for this. In fact, they expected this situation a long time ago, but their own strength is not as good as the other party's, and they also did not expect the other party's attack to be so violent, so sudden ...the line of defense collapsed in an instant, and the number of positions was lost, and there was nothing left.

At this moment, the news that Ziyi was about to lead troops to reinforce Cang Yan Legion suddenly came out, and the battle situation was reversed again in an instant!

From the beginning of the war to the present, the battle situation has always been a bit weird. The thunder and Cang Yan Legions on both sides fought fiercely, and the flames were everywhere. But the Zichen Legion defense area with the most critical location is calm and tranquil, and the barbarians are also not guilty of autumn, as if they have never seen the existence of this place in sight.

The reason is naturally clear to everyone, because the one sitting here is the Ziyi military god who looks down on the world, and the Zichen Legion of the Megatron continent! Now that no one dares to come to provoke them, the only way is to take the initiative and show their edge. [

Regardless of whether this news is true or not, it is a fact that Ziyi has not yet walked out of Xiongguan City. But Rao is so, it is enough to attract the attention of all parties, and secretly move constantly. This is like a lion entrenched in the deep mountains. Although he did not go out to hunt, he raised his head and roared. Thousands of miles of beasts did not trembling with fear, and wolves ran to rabbits...

...

At noon, Xiongguan City.

It's still Ziyi's house, it's still a heat wave. However, the owner here took off the purple fluffy cloak that he often wears and wore a set of one-piece armor made of unknown metal.

This armor is light purple in color. Smooth as a mirror. If you look closely. You can also see natural irregular spots inside the metal, like a deep and quiet sea of stars!

There is only one set of this armor on the entire continent. The material is extracted from meteorites from outside the sky, and then forged into shape by the hands of skilled craftsmen. Finally, this armor was bestowed by the King of Titus Kingdom to its owner - Ziyi War God!

Speaking from a certain perspective, perhaps it can be known from this armor alone that the news that Ziyi is about to lead his troops out of Xiongguan City is not groundless.

Stroked the smooth shoulder pads. Ziyi raised his head and chuckled: "hehe, the mission and destination of the armor are on the battlefield. But I only wore this armor when I was awarded the ceremony, and it has been at the bottom of the arsenal for so many years. I feel wronged when I think about it. It."

"Haha, marshal, what's wrong with you? Who else in the continent should wear this armor besides you!"

"That's right. And now the war is coming, it Following the marshal, you will naturally complete the mission and get the honor you deserve!"

"..."

The interior of the house was the same as last time. There were about a dozen neatly dressed generals gathered. They looked at the mysterious armor on Ziyi's body with burning eyes. Qi Qi expressed his sincere admiration. This is not flattery, but a soldier's yearning for the highest honor symbol!

He waved his hand, "cough cough...hehe, there are not so many complicated meanings. The reason why I don't wear it is because it is not as warm as other clothes." Twisting his body, Ziyi looked a little worried. , a mocking look appeared at the corners of his mouth, "And I've lost a lot of weight over the years, I can't hold it up a bit, and the clothes don't fit well."

Not warm and fit... The generals look at each other in dismay , I don't know how to answer. The entire Titus Empire can despise this armor so much, I am afraid that it is only the one in front of me!

"Okay, let's get down to business first." Ziyi said with a straight face, "The news of the reinforcements of Cang Yan Legion has been released, and now that the battle preparations are in order, it is natural to count them. Well, Legion is here. There are a total of five armies here. Except for the one army that stayed in Xiongguan City, the other four armies went to war. Whoever wants to go, who wants to stay?"

tone barely fell , a rough-faced general walked out first: " Marshal, my gang of cubs can't hold back. No matter what, our army will be the first to fight."

Ziyi nodded and chuckled: "hehe, well, you are the one!"

"Haha, Marshal Xie!" The rude general was overjoyed when he heard the words, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and quickly returned to his original position after taking the order, as if he was worried that the next moment would fly away.

The generals couldn't help smiling when they couldn't wait. [

"Marshal, our army invites battle."

"Our army invites battle... ah, I said Laowa, you don't pay attention to it. Last time your army didn't just fight. Why, what the hell are you doing here to join in the fun? This time it's our army's turn!"

"Just played? Can you be a little brainy? The last time was three years ago, How can we count now? Marshal, our army is determined to fight!"

"Bah!

The hut that was peaceful just now was instantly drowned out by all kinds of noise. The generals were all blushing and spitting. Emotional, there is even a general-level martial power contest on the spot.

This situation is actually quite normal here. Every time a Quest is issued, several generals have to compete. Because of him, Zichen Legion has a good reputation. Federation has consciously avoided here when the barbarians attacked in these years, so the generals of Zichen Legion are full of strategies and strong generals, but Naihe has a battle to fight, and it is really hard to hold back. .

However, this debate did not last long, because the deputy general saw a few people sitting on the side who did not participate in the competition, and suddenly patted his thigh: "Isn't there only one army left behind? That makes him good at fighting defensive battles. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds for the Fourth Army to stay?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent. All the generals came back to his senses suddenly, and then collectively transferred the 'attack' object.

"It's a good idea, you can let the Fourth Army stay."

"Yeah, Mr. Tang is known as the second frontier of Titus, so he definitely won't be able to fight defensively. Question."

"I agree with..."

...

"Uh..." Tang Old General, who was sitting firmly by the side, was stunned and immediately With a wry smile, he waved his hand, "Okay, since none of you are willing to stay, then it's up to my four armies to guard it."

"Haha, so good." The generals Overjoyed. Some saw that Tang Lao's attitude was somewhat reluctant. He smiled and reassured. "Old General Tang is serious and serious. Only by handing over the city of Xiongguan to you to guard it will everyone worry about it. And maybe some savage barbarians will bump into your hands and make great achievements easily."

"Go, go, go... Don't make fun of me." How could Old General Tang fail to see that this was a joke, and although his army was known for fighting defensive battles, he couldn't take advantage of such a great opportunity, It was inevitable that I was also a little uncomfortable, so I waved a few people away again and again. at this time. A calm voice suddenly sounded,

"It's better, our army is here to defend!"

"Eh?" The overjoyed generals and the somewhat regretful old Tang were all startled when they heard the words, and turned around. When he turned his head, he realized that it was Ralph who had been silent all along.

"General Lei...well, the Second Army is indeed a good choice."

Relph is leading the Second Army of Zichen, and his army is not entirely based on Famous for defense, but for being able to attack and defend well. In this way, there will be no problem in defending the city. And more importantly, it was Ralph's own initiative. The generals were of course impossible to contend with him.

"Or let General Lei guard it. Mr. Tang has been stable for most of his life. It's time to fight a beautiful battle."

"I have no opinion..." [

At this time, Ziyi, who was sitting at the top, pressed his palm to signal everyone to be quiet. Immediately looking at Ralph with a dull face, he frowned slightly: "You two armies want to defend the city?"

Ralph looked up to meet Ziyi's line of sight, with an ancient well without ripples, and nodded lightly: "Yes ."

"cough cough..." After coughing a few times, Ziyi stroked his palms and raised his head a little: "Okay, Xiongguan City will be guarded by your second army. Well, but I It's very inconvenient to move, Ralph, you will go with me and assist the commander."

Silence for a moment, Ralph nodded, and said succinctly: "Yes."

"That's it." Closing his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose, Ziyi seemed tired and waved, "Except for Ralph, the left flank of the third and fourth armies, and the right flank of the fifth and sixth armies, set off according to the previously agreed route. Well. , this battle is my Legion's first expedition after being dormant for more than ten years, everyone must show the power of Zichen Legion!"

"Yes!" Huh, all the generals were excited, and all stood upright and respected. After a standard military salute, he turned around and left.

As the door closed again, only Ziyi and Ralph were left in the room. Ziyi was still pinching the bridge of his nose with his eyes closed, and Ralph was even more silent. His expression had not changed in the slightest since the beginning. Even when sweat dripped past his eyes, he was quietly waiting for it to accumulate water, and then plummeted down... Time fell into silence.

After a while, it was Ralph who got up and said, "Marshal, I'm going to prepare a military event."

"Hehe, it's really not easy to wait for the Silent Eagle to speak. As if waiting for Ralph to speak, Ziyi opened his eyes with a childlike smile, then waved his hand, "No. I won't lead the first army this time. Well, lead the ninth army to battle."

"Ninth Army?" Ralph's expression like a knife and axe showed a rare look of shock.

Xiongguan City is located in the most important place closest to the front line, and there are usually four or five troops stationed around it. But this does not mean that all the troops of Zichen Legion are here. In fact, there are several other armies scattered in the Quartet to stabilize the defense line. Judging from the registration, Zichen Legion has a total of eight armies!

But these Eighth Army are only for outsiders to see, people like Ralph know that there are actually the Ninth Army in Zichen Legion. However, this army is really mysterious. Whether it is military operations such as stationing, training, and combat, or logistical supplies such as equipment, food, and military salaries, they are completely separated from other army soldiers in Zichen Legion and form a self-contained system.

It can be said that, apart from knowing that this army was established by Ziyi more than ten years ago, and that most of the soldiers in it were homeless and orphans...other situations, everyone knew very little. Including several generals such as Ralph.

"Yes, the so-called train an army for a thousand days to use it for an hour. You always have to fight to know the true battle strength of this army. And..." Ziyi nodded, and then wanted to say more What, his body suddenly trembled violently, "cough cough...cough cough..."

"Marshal." Ralph couldn't bear it anymore, and walked a few steps over to pat Ziyi on the back.

The coughing didn't stop, the sound was higher than the sound, and Ziyi's pale face turned flushed instantly. Grasp the corner of the table with one hand and draw a few clear finger marks. He waved his hand and pointed tremblingly at the plush cloak on the chair beside him.

Relph immediately ran over when he saw this, and first took out the pockets around the cloak, and it was empty. Then find a crystal vial with purple liquid in the inner pocket. Run back quickly. Twist open the bottle. Handed to Ziyi's lips.

There are six or seven stoves in the corner of the house that are constantly exuding heat, and the volcanic crater is also merely this, but Ziyi's lips are still trembling, and the upper and lower teeth are also bumping at a very high frequency, like falling in an ice hole. After a few tries, the mouth of the bottle was successfully delivered to the mouth.

Gudong...

I don't know what this purple liquid is made of, but it is certain that it is very effective for Ziyi's strange condition. After swallowing, the violent cough finally stopped.

"Whew..."

Take a long breath. Slowly recline on the seat. His face was flushed, and his thin, willow-like lips were dyed with a lavender luster, trembling slightly. If you ignore the Adam's apple that is still shaking up and down, he does have the beauty of a beautiful and weak woman at this moment.

But this is Ziyi, the one who frightened thousands of barbarians from stepping into the Zichen Legion defense zone! Such a disparity and contrast makes people feel that the Creator is unreasonable.

"Hehe, what did you just say?" Thin Ye's lips lifted slightly, Ziyi was still smiling, raising hand to touch his forehead, "Oh. It's Jiujun... Well, you saw it too. I With this physical condition, if I don't lead the Ninth Army to fight again, I'm afraid there will be no chance."

Relph's expression fluctuated a little when he heard the words, his lips wriggled a few times, he hesitated to speak, and finally lowered his head. Eyes, keep silent.

"Oh... well." With an inexplicable sigh, Ziyi stood up on the table, "Go, accompany me to the city to see."

The figure of Ralph did not move, Look at the frowned fireplace in the corner.

Seeming to know what Ralph was thinking, Ziyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "hehe, I always have to leave these things, I can't bring them with me when I lead my troops to expedition."

After he finished speaking, he walked around the table to the door. Ralph looked at Ziyi's back, pursed his lips, and followed.

Squeak, "Marshal!" As soon as the door opened, a senile stared at him next to him, and the veteran guard immediately gave an extremely standard military salute.

"hehe, old Jill." Ziyi seemed to know the veteran gatekeeper very well. After a few words of greeting, he pointed to the rear cabin, and the corner of his mouth curved, "Remove the heater inside after I leave, Well, there are a lot of secrets here, you have to guard it, old Jill, haha..."

"Yes, Marshal, don't worry!" Old Jill didn't seem to hear the joke in these words, and again The military salute was solemn, and the voice was loud. This made Ziyi fuss, smacking his lips, patted the other's shoulder, and walked out.

The location of Zichen's military headquarters is the center of Xiongguan City, which should have been the City Lord's mansion. However, after Ziyi led his troops to station here about 20 years ago, the original City Lord voluntarily gave up the second position. Ziyi did not refuse at that time, because everyone knew that as long as they knew that Ziyi lived here, there would be no problem with the security of the city, and the people could continue to live in peace.

Ziyi came out through the back door, accompanied only by the silent Ralph. This city is too close to the front line. Although it has not been ravaged by war for more than 20 years, it is normal for soldiers wearing armor to appear. In addition, Ziyi came out very rarely, so not many people paid attention to them while walking on the street. Of course, there are also some people who are familiar with the military, when they see the general rank on Ralph's cuff, and then look at Ziyi, their faces are suddenly uncertain, and they are stunned on the spot...

It was the afternoon, and the street There are many people there. Or the handyman rushing to deliver the goods, or the young man who goes to the pub to get drunk with his friends, or the rich girl discussing where to open a new clothing store...all kinds of, and so on. . It can be said that the people here are lucky, even the homeless who are worried about the whereabouts of their dinner. Because, at least they don't have to face the brutal battlefield of blood and rain!

Walking among them, Ziyi first began to appear very interested, and would stop and watch when encountering interesting things. But after walking down a few streets, his expression became less and less, and he even faintly resisted. At this moment,

"Mom, let's go!" "Kill them..." "Black-hearted ghosts, you will definitely go to hell..."

In the noise With curses and reprimands. Ziyi looked up and saw many people walking backwards from the street corner in front of him. Some were angry and pointed to the back and shouted loudly. Some even picked up the gravel and soil on the ground and smashed it hard with their arms.

Soon, more and more people came out of the street corner crowded with something. Ziyi first saw a group of Zichen soldiers in the middle of the crowd, crushing dozens of brawny men whose noses were bruised and bruised by various things, followed by a carriage of carriages tied with tarpaulins.

Seeing this, Ziyi was suddenly nodded. Needless to say, this must be a group of smugglers who tried to pass through the defense zone and were caught.

Among the three Legions, if the Legion is the most severe against smuggling, it is undoubtedly the Zichen Legion. Moreover, this order was given by Ziyi himself, and even for this ruthless approval, several Advanced officers who had received black money were executed. During those few months, there was basically no free day for hanging posts in the city.

But from the current situation, it is clear that for some people, high interests are more tempting than cold hanging posts.

"Huh...General!" At this moment, the soldier at the front turned around and saw Ralph at the back of the crowd, and suddenly exclaimed.

These soldiers are all members of the Zichen Second Army. Now that they see their generals, they naturally have to come and report the situation. The line stopped immediately, the crowd dispersed, and a man who looked like a Captain came over, just about to salute Ralph, when he glanced at Ziyi beside him, he was suddenly a shivered.

With a wave of his hand, Ziyi stopped the exclamation that Captain was about to blurt out, and asked warmly, "This is smuggling?"

"Uh... yes, yes!" Captain Instantly excited, Ziyi, actually saw Marshal Ziyi... At this moment, he could almost hear his own heartbeat like a drum.

Ziyi squinted at the carriage at the back: "A lot of stuff?"

"Gao Yuan... Well, there are 20 carts of grain, 15 carts of fresh meat, and more. There are three carts of salt."

Nodding, after a little pondering, Ziyi said plainly, "The smugglers will send them directly to the hanging post, and they will be executed immediately. As for these goods...there is a slum in Nancheng, and they will be shipped there. It's divided. Well, pay attention to maintaining good order, come back to the logistics office to receive the reward, go."

"Yes!" Captain heard the subconsciously upright figure and gave a military salute, and immediately became dizzy He turned and left, only remembering Ziyi's order, and even the general of the army, Ralph, was forgotten.

In fact, even if these smugglers are really to be executed, they must be approved by the court in the city. However, when Ziyi speaks, it is naturally blocked! And those smuggled materials, in other Legions, are soldiers' booty. On Zichen's side, it must be handed in first, and then the soldiers will be given an equal reward from above.

This handover procedure may seem cumbersome, but it's actually a tough trick. After all, these supplies were given to soldiers, and all they could do was find black market merchants to sell them. So will black market merchants resell these supplies to smugglers? There is no doubt that as long as the price is okay, the result is certain.

"Uh, is this the Lord of War..." "No, I haven't seen Lord of the War in public for several years..." "Look, the rank of the person next to him is general. Hey, so..."

Seeing the people around him react a little bit, Ziyi pressed down the edge of his helmet, turned around and strode away: "Let's go, it's time for us to set off, don't let some People have been waiting for a long time..."

I don't know if it was because of the cold wind, but Ziyi's last sentence seemed very meaningful. Hearing this, Ralph showed a puzzled look, then shook his head slightly, and followed Ziyi's pace in silence...

......(To be continued.)
