Chapter 1016
2014-10-27
People are hanging around outside. The most important thing is that there are people above and people below. I can take it...cough cough...cough cough...
Well, what Tang En wanted to say is, a good omen - your sister!
Covered in dirt climbed up from the ravine beside the road, panting heavily, glanced slightly, the small raid just now has ended, and there are more than ten Titus scouts lying on the ground not far away. corpse, blood spread. A familiar blue-armored giant wolf circled around, as if thinking about where to start. Oh, and the two unlucky Dark Snake Guards who were shot into hedgehogs by crossbow arrows...
He touched his cheeks, they were wet, it was a few bloody bites from the previous fall. Well, it was intentional.
"How about Sabah brother, isn't it hurt?" It was a middle-aged barbarian with a beard and a yellow beard, a member of the War Lion Tribe, and the top officer of the intelligence team at the moment.
Tang En shook his head indifferently: "It's fine, thank you for your concern. Well, are you all right?" Of course he was fine. When the raid started, he was guarded by a group of Dark Snake Guards. As for Tang En himself, although he had already noticed the arrival of the Titus raiding team, he didn't care because he thought he was an ordinary barbarian, and it was impossible for anyone to attack him. Who would have thought that as soon as the battle started, he was the one who was taken care of the most by the first round crossbow arrow. Immediately after he fell to the ground, those Titus scouts kept rushing like crazy, forcing him to roll into the ravine by himself... CHA!
"Hehe, it's fine." It should be clear that Tang En is highly valued by the Great General, the middle-aged barbarian officer seemed very kind and patted Tang En's shoulders affectionately, "This is still within the War Zone. , a single squad like us is easily attacked, and it will be much safer to go further on the section of the road... In short. Just get used to it."
"Understood." nodded, then Tang En scratched his head again, "Just. Why are all these Titus soldiers attacking me?"
"Oh, this is..." The middle-aged barbarian officer looked a little strange when he heard this. Without saying anything, he pointed to the blue-armored giant wolf that was eating the corpse not far away.
Tang En was stunned for a moment as he followed, then corner of the mouth twitched, and he understood in an instant.
Hey, I was killed by this beast!
Isn't it? The green armor giant wolf is an advanced and showy mount in Beihuang, whoever sits on it will be mistaken for a great character, and will be properly attacked by Titus soldiers as the first target!
This is a good sign. It is clearly a scourge of ridicule! With a livid face, Tang En walked over, kicked the big and juicy green armor giant wolf with one foot, and scolded: "It's really not a thing! Are you acting like a mount to protect the master? What more than you did good! You still stare! Bite me...Remember me, you are the mount, and I am the master. I am now in a higher position than you, so you have to protect me. Let me make trouble again , I immediately stewed you..."
Tang En rampage cursed like thunder, and Qing Kai giant wolf unfathomable mystery looked at each other, this scene seemed very funny. But gradually. Taking pleasure in other people's misfortune, Dark Snake Guard's complexion changed a bit, the more he listened to it, the more unpleasant he felt, as if this remark was pointing at them and scolding them.
In the raid just now. Although Tang En received the most special care because of the blue armor giant wolf, after he avoided the first round crossbow arrow, he should have nothing to do with him. Because his position is in the middle of the squid, it is actually difficult to close combat attacks. But at that time, all the Dark Snake Guards around him rushed to the middle-aged barbarian officer, exposing him directly... With such a tacit reaction, I swore that no one would believe it if there was no ghost in it.
And the reason for this situation is simple, because Tang En stepped on the top three Dark Snake Guards last night, too much hatred. The Dark Snake Guards who also came out of the Hidden Snake Tribe were greatly dissatisfied and secretly hated!
Of course. Just like Tang En scolding Sang and scolding Huai with the help of this slightly innocent giant wolf, the small actions are all secret. These Dark Snake Guards dare not do it obviously. After all, Tang En's current status is indeed a little higher than them. And just take the action just now, even if Tang En is in the end, they still have ample excuses to say that they were the first to protect the middle-aged barbarian officer, and they have no responsibility.
In this way, if they are not compatible with each other, and they both know each other, then they have to rely on their own means.
In fact, in terms of tricks, even the Dark Snake Guard, known for its insidiousness, is just a dish under Tang En's hands...
A few minutes later, Next to the forest, the crossbow arrows whistled.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack...Protect adults!"
"Just a squid, rush in, kill them..."
"Kill... "
A quarter of an hour later, the canyon and boulders rolled down.
"Enemy attack... Back up... ah!"
"Damn, how did you Dark Snake Guard find the way?"
"Go around. , drive them away..."
Half an hour later, under the hill, the battalion Titus scouts ambushed.
"Enemy attack..."
"...you fucking yell and run!"
...
From the wantonly slaughter at the beginning, to the less annoying drive, to the last embarrassing escape... This intelligence team, under the conscious or unintentional guidance of Tang En and the secret mark, kept suffering from the Titus scout team. attack. And after the small battles were fought, the Dark Snake Guard accompanying the team began to suffer casualties, and the number dropped sharply...
If there are a few Temur people here, maybe they will rely on this. Tang En's anomaly was found. Because you have to know that when they sent information before, they were very lucky, and they came over smoothly, which is in sharp contrast to the current unfortunate intelligence team.
But unfortunately, the Temur people have long since returned to the army to trumpet Tang En's good luck. So although the middle-aged barbarian officers and the others also realized that the current situation was abnormal, no one suspected that Tang En, who survived in a panic and embarrassed every time, only thought that he was the back of his life, depressed and angry. .
Fortunately, after this intelligence team was completely crippled into a frightened bird, luck seemed to turn for the better, and it never encountered the unfortunate situation of being attacked before walking a few steps away.
This is of course not the work of the god of the wild as the middle-aged barbarian officer said, but Tang En also realized that something was wrong. According to common sense, their current position is indeed not completely out of the War Zone. It is normal to encounter the Titus scout team, but the frequency is too high right now, like in the rear of the barbarian army. There are Titus scouts lurking in every inch of the land...
This is certainly not normal, in fact, if Tang En hadn't secretly made a move to intervene, the intelligence team would have been full. It may not be safe to reach the destination.
It's not difficult to understand, Tang En thought about it before and after. I can roughly guess the reason. Now this somewhat nonsensical war should be inspired by Woodin, the purpose is to create a better assassination environment for him. However, Woodin believes him, but the frontline army may not. Besides, putting eggs in one basket is never the best plan, so the Titus army should also want to use this to lock the position of the commander of the mysterious barbarian, and turn it over in one fell swoop...
Taking advantage of the situation is double insurance.
And realizing this problem, Tang En naturally dared not play tricks. Instead, provide guarantee and protect services for this intelligence team again. Otherwise, if he is the only one left, I don't know where the destination is...
Well, after going around and going back to the origin, I even put myself in it, which made Tang En quite playful. Feeling helpless...
...
Small town, a former Titus aristocratic manor in East City District.
"Tiu, you didn't listen to what I said before... You were too rude just now, His Royal Highness Lansa came to greet you, you shouldn't have that attitude, in front of all the veterans... ...They are all powerful figures in various tribes. If they have a bad impression on you, it will be very bad for your future..."...
"Enough!" Stepping into the hall of the manor, still With the color of having endured the hardships of a long journey, Tiu suddenly drank. A fist slammed on the thick wooden door, with a loud bang and a grim expression.
paused, the slightly babbling words suddenly disappeared. The barbarian officers who followed behind looked at each other in dismay and silently exited the hall. Only a middle-aged officer still stood frowning, silently watching Tiu who took a deep breath, and stopped speaking.
"Phew...I know, Uncle Yuan Fang, you are doing it for my good, I know that. Thank you, sorry." He exhaled one mouthful of impure air. The tyrannical look was instantly disappeared, and Tiu rubbed his eyebrows. Turning around and spreading his hands, he said calmly, "But what do you ask me to do? Bow your head to acknowledge allegiance to my smart younger sister, bow down? Hehe, you know, I don't mind doing it if it works. But..."
Shaking his head, "It's useless. Now these veterans look down on me, and they won't in the future... So, what's the use of their impressions on me?"
After a moment of silence, it was called Zuo Yuanfang's middle-aged officer said again: "The matter has not reached that point, we can still fight for it..."
Still shaking his head, "hehe, don't think about it, it's useless. And don't think about it. Speaking of them, Uncle Yuan Fang, your family should have also told you to stay away from me... Yes, I know, Uncle Yuan Fang, you did not agree. We have lived together through adversity and life and death. We were defeated in Xiongguan City last year. It was you who persuaded me to let go of the idea of suicide when I was captured..."
"I am very grateful to you, and thank you for looking up to me so much. But they are different..." Laughing at himself, Tiu looked up in the west direction, in the direction of the City Lord's mansion, and licked his lips, "In their opinion, heh, I'm a bastard!"
Yuan Fang frowned: "Tiu..."
He interrupted with a wave of his hand, "Listen to me, uncle, I know you're going to say that this is just a rumor, it hasn't been confirmed, and the mother doesn't... Forget it. I don't care about it now, yes I really don't care. I just wanted to laugh a little... Look, how ridiculous, that's how I can make my first succession, which has been solid for several decades under my ass, collapse and make me a target. Haha..."
Seeing that Tiu seemed to be crazy again, Yuan Fang interrupted: "Then what are we rushing back for this time?"
"It's very simple, just like Yuan Fang Shuchang As I said, come here to please this smart younger sister, so that she won't hurt me assassin after she ascends, or hand over to Titus... Oh, yes, if I hand over to Titus, I may have a good future. After all, I'm the heir of some of their military gods, or the only heir, It shouldn't be treat me badly..."
Waving his arms, his expression was joking, Tiu's entire body language was exaggerated and deliberate . Immediately paused, looking at Yuan Fang with a condensed expression, he realized something, and couldn't help but smile again, "Ha, Uncle Yuan Fang, you are a little nervous. What are you worried about? I'm going to rebel? Please, we didn't bring the army with us this time. Still staying there and fighting the damn Grey Cloth Armed Force, isn't it just to make my smart younger sister and this group of veterans think too much?"
"...Sorry, Tiu, I didn't Can you mean..."
"I know, I know, uncle, you have always been good for me, I'm afraid I'll be impulsive." Tiu said with a smile again. "Then help me agree to that smart younger sister's invitation, and go to dinner at noon, right? No problem, just tell me to clean up and go."
Yuan Fang was stunned when he heard the words. After hesitating, nodded. Retire.
Watching Yuan Fang's silhouette disappear at the gate, Tiu shrugged and took a breath, seemed to relax a lot, and muttered to himself: "I'm sorry, Uncle Yuan Fang, I lied to you... I Still not reconciled..."
Tiu was really not reconciled, of course, whoever was in his position. I will not be willing to come.
This is the truth. If there is no hope from the very beginning, then there will be no loss or despair after failure. But when a person is instilled in the power of kings since childhood, everyone around him also regards him as the next empire Sovereign, and he also thinks so. In the end, all of this was suddenly disappeared, or because of an unconfirmed rumor, then everyone would be driven crazy...
"Smart younger sister...why do you keep doing this? If you are smart, you can't be stupid... This puts me under a lot of pressure as a big brother..."
To be honest. Tiu didn't have much of an issue with Lansa, and he doesn't now. Even before, he had always been faintly proud of this incomparably smart younger sister. The siblings have always had a good relationship. But when rumors of that bastard came out, his heir status was no longer stable, and Lansa, with her always smart and wise voice, became the next queen among the tribes, and everything changed.
It's that simple, the stance is different. As siblings, no matter how good the younger sister is, his big brother will not be jealous, but will have the responsibility to admire and spoil. Will find a way to meet all the requirements of the younger sister. But when the two stood around the throne and became direct competitors. Family affection is no longer important...even, it will become the fuse that ignites hatred!
For example. The current Tiu and the Queen of the Northern Wilderness...
"Look, because of your excellence, Lord mother has chosen to remain silent... No, this is the default! By default, my son will be deprived of his right of inheritance, and then he will You push to the throne... hehe, Lord mother, Sir Empress, what are you thinking, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, exactly!"
Compared to Lansa, Tiu's current sense of anger towards the Queen of the Northern Wilderness, or The feeling of being betrayed is undoubtedly stronger.
The whole thing, including Ziyi forcibly breaking through the imperial city of Beihuang before, shouting 'come out and see me' three times, and later Lansa has a faint sign of superiority, as the center of all events and public opinion Tempest Point, the Queen of the Northern Wilderness, never said anything because of this.
Neither admitting that there is a problem with Tiu's origin, nor confirming that there is no problem with Tiu's origin.
This is supposed to be a balanced situation, and it won't affect anything. But in Tiu's view, this is undoubtedly tacitly accepting Lansa as the next queen.
Because of the fact that this is the case, because of her refusal to open her mouth, everyone thinks of domestic shame, which is why it is determined that he Tiu is the child of her and Ziyi. Also because of her refusal to speak, she temporarily chose the group of people standing behind Lansa, even more convinced that their choice was the right one, because the queen also tacitly agreed...
She didn't say anything, and she didn't say anything. Need to say, no one dared to force her to say. But this is, for Thiu, a deep, deep betrayal!
Shaking his head, "I can't think of it, I can't figure it out... Lord mother, I'll never guess what you're thinking... But if this smart younger sister dies...hehe, will you? As I expected?"
This is not wishful thinking, there are only two heirs, and if it becomes one, naturally there is no choice.
That's right, Tiu was really motivated to kill, he thought he was being forced.
Of course, the killing of younger sister, both emotionally and from the follow-up influence, decided that Titawu could not do it himself. Tiu didn't even think about going into battle in person, he was thinking of murder a person with a borrowed knife...
As I said before, Tiu is not stupid, in fact, he is also a qualified army commander. So some uncomplicated issues, Lansa can think of, he can naturally. For example, the real reason why the Titus military suddenly launched this suicide attack... His judgment was exactly the same as Lansa's, so here he was.
To be honest, Tiu admired a certain great character of Titus who carried out this great generosity plan, but he did not believe that the Titus Assassin, or the Titus army that followed, could kill himself, this wise man. younger sister.
The root cause is not only because the young sister has always been scheming, but also because of some other key factors.
Because of his status, Tiu always knows more news than others. For example, someone who lived in the imperial city for a long time, was originally an expert who was protecting the mother, but this time he was also sent to covertly protect the smart younger sister...
Look, she is so biased!
laughed, it seemed because he was excited and nervous, or maybe because he wanted to think more reasons that could cause anger, so as to relieve the guilt in his heart, Tiu leaned back against the wooden door and trembled slightly, his expression was a little distressed , some crazy!
"You forced me, you forced me...Shasha, Mrs. mother...you know, I have no choice!"
"Assassination, assassination... ...The army is surrounded and suppressed, and Titus Legion has no strength to break through the blockade. That is Assassin...Who will it be, will Titus Sword God come personally, it's better! One sword breaks, no pain..."
"Oh, before that, I need to lure that Old Guy away...Assassinations are usually done at night, what excuse is used to avoid suspicion, and the most important thing is not to be backlashed after the event is done...I am also Your Highness, to Shi is the only His Highness. It only needs an excuse, he won't kill me even if he suspects it, he will never kill me... Oh, I remember... hehe, Uncle Yuan Fang, please, help me again ……”
