Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 827

[Chapter 825 Attacking the Stronghold]

A few days later.

Black Dragon Mountain.

“Your Majesty… there is a group of bandits in this mountain. They are called Black Wind Bandits. They are the most cunning ones!”

Zhan Da held a machete and opened a path ahead: “We hid and seek with them for a long time before we found the other side’s stronghold and blocked it. The main point…”

His eyes were lively and his speech was much more organized than the soldiers next to him. Except for his more upright temper, he was almost the same as a normal person.

The chilling and mechanical feeling on the body can also be seen as the temperament and common problems of soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Aaron couldn’t help but be quite satisfied.

‘This Liujia Divine Weapon has finally been upgraded to an elite unit…’

In fact, the upgrade is not complicated. It is just a matter of combining the idea of animal training and using the spirituality of the ‘tower’ for wisdom enlightenment.

But humans are not animals after all, and it took Aaron a long time to find a way.

Also, the consumption is a bit high.

‘It is impossible to popularize it. At most, some elite units can be created… But to be honest, it is still a dream to command tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of generals to complete the planning and deployment of a grand war. ! ‘

Aaron had to admit that ‘general skills’ and talents are real, especially some military geniuses whose keen sense of smell and timing in war are really beyond the reach of ordinary people!

‘It seems that… we will still need to recruit some people in the future to serve as generals or even commanders of the entire army? ‘

‘As long as I use my people as the backbone, I will never be afraid of mutiny and betrayal…’

Aaron just imagined the scene in the future when he went against the grain and led the army to rebel. He was inexplicably looking forward to it…

As he was thinking about it, something suddenly dawned on him .

Cheerful, a village appears.

“This is Heifeng Village? It really occupies a good location. There are hundreds of bandits? It’s not bad…the mountains and forests can’t support too many people.”

Aaron looked at it and felt that the village was really well built and it was easy to defend but difficult to attack. He couldn’t help but nodded, and ordered: “Attack!”

“Follow me!”

Zhan Da roared, and dozens of people suddenly gathered around him and rushed towards the stockade.

The fifty men he led were the backbone of the pursuers, and they had the best weapons and leather armor.

In addition, Aaron has also ‘conquered’ many local bandits this year, and his men have grown to 500!

With the ability to ‘sow the beans into an army’, there is no fear of low morale or defection.

But it was a bit troublesome to raise him, and the rewards he received from the previous officials were gradually not enough!

At this time, after Zhan Da took charge of the main attack, people from all directions in the dense forest also mobilized, rushing towards the mountain stronghold from everywhere like crazy.

“In order to break through the city, we have always focused on attacking a little bit and concentrating firepower to break through.”

Aaron looked at the battle situation and knew that there was something wrong with the command, but he was not afraid at all: “But if five hundred people fight a hundred people, even if the opponent is huddled in the stronghold, it will still be an advantage. I…”

“Building a strong fortress, fighting stupid battles, and being able to attack with ten times the force at every turn… is also the secret of a military strategist’s constant victory.”

…

Heifeng Stronghold.

The leader was at the gate of the village, looking at the charging crowd with a ferocious expression: “Damn it…this day has finally come!”

He had long known that a group of dragons crossing the river had come to the local green forest, and they were very careless in doing things. , many copycats and gangs have been wiped out.

I was worried before, but when this day arrived, I felt a little relieved.

“Brothers! We have a stronghold, kill me hard!”

The leader’s eyes were red: “If you win this time, the money will be divided among the big scales in the stronghold, and everyone can enjoy my six-bedroom women as they please!”

The bandit was stimulated .

Howling, waving the weapons in his hands.

Soon, Zhan Da and others who were in the first wave of charge reached the mountain stronghold.

The first gate of this cottage is located in the wonderful scenery of the sky, guarding the dangerous pass. Although it is not high, it has dug trenches, and there are some wooden thorns and horses.

“Come on!”

After all, Zhan Da has become an elite unit after being ‘initiated’ and ‘upgraded’. At this time, he did not take the lead, but fell a few steps behind and began to take command.

The Liujia Divine Soldiers had no such thing as morale, and the soldiers behind them rushed forward with a muffled voice.

“Fire arrows! Shoot them to death!”

The second master gave the order, and arrows fell like raindrops on the village gate.

Most of the mountain people were skilled in hunting skills, and they were also proficient in playing with bows and arrows. Several soldiers were shot to death immediately, and some were hit by several arrows. They continued to charge without shouting or yelling.

Especially when the first few, wearing leather armor and hanging arrows, seemed to have turned into hedgehogs, but in fact they were not seriously injured, they came to the gate of the village without saying a word, moved away the obstacles, and started climbing.

“Big Boss… There’s something wrong with this situation.”

The Second Boss came to the Big Boss with a trembling tone: “It’s not like the village has never been besieged before… There are always a few deserters after a rain of arrows, but these people are They didn’t even turn around, and the leader was wearing leather armor… These are the first-class elite soldiers of the imperial court!”

“Indeed, but the elite soldiers came to surround us, is it because their heads are filled with water?”

The boss roared: “Keep firing arrows. , smash the stone! “

Bang! “

A huge boulder was smashed down, causing a soldier’s brain to burst.

Blood splattered on the faces of the surrounding colleagues, but their expressions remained unchanged.

It’s too late to say it, but it’s soon!

In the blink of an eye, the soldiers rushed under the stronghold.

Around the wooden door, there are also green wood thorns, which are a kind of thorny vine in the mountains. They were discovered by the master and were immediately used for defense.

Don’t talk about iron thorns… Iron and gold are precious these days. If you have some, you can use it to make farm tools or weapons. You will never waste it to make barbed wire or the like.

puff!

A Liujia divine soldier rushed forward and covered the thorns with his body. The soldiers behind him also rushed forward and built a ladder.

Even if his head is broken and bleeding, his hands are still holding on tightly.

“This… is crazy! Madman!”

The voice of the master above the cottage began to tremble: “This is not a human being, this is not a human being!”

He also knows some art of war and knows that in his cottage, even if the imperial army comes, he will Even a thousand people can’t break it.

But under this fierce and fearless style of play, the entire line began to falter.

“Kill!”

A soldier climbed up the city wall and immediately swung his sword and beheaded a black bandit.

At the same time, the gangsters around him reacted immediately and stabbed several sharpened wooden sticks into his body.

The soldier roared angrily, grabbed the nearest enemy, and fell off the city wall with him.

This style of fighting is not just for one person, but for everyone!

Especially after seeing a soldier who was burned beyond recognition by boiling water but still fought hard, the bandits on the entire defense line collapsed!

They are just gangsters, not elite soldiers!

It’s not easy to persist until now.

Even if the elite soldiers from the imperial court come, they may not be able to do better than them.

Seeing this scene, the first master couldn’t help but feel his hands and feet go cold: “It’s God who wants to kill me!”

“First master, run!”

The second master grabbed the first master’s arm: “The green hills are here, so you don’t have to worry about not having firewood!”

But at this moment, there was a noise in the village, and there were faint shouts of killing.

“What happened?”

The headmaster drew his sword in his hand and his voice sounded like a lone wolf.

“It’s the cliff at the back of the mountain. Someone has also come up to kill him. The third master who stayed behind has been killed…”

A gangster covered in blood escaped from the stronghold and replied in embarrassment.

“Damn it, the mountain behind is a cliff! Could it be that it flew up?”

The leader simply stopped running and looked at the pursuers: “There is no retreat, let’s fight out!”

“Kill!”

The second in command also drew out his sword and fought with the pursuing Six Jia Divine Soldiers.

Whoosh!

The second in command thrust out his sword, aiming directly at the vital point of a soldier on the opposite side.

Unexpectedly, the soldier ignored him and just moved aside, causing the sword to pierce his left shoulder, and then a knife from the right chopped him down.

The second in command wanted to draw his sword, but found that it was stuck in the bones and couldn’t be pulled out!

Then, half of his neck was cut off by a knife!

“Are these soldiers? Why are they fighting like desperate men?”

The first in command was devastated, watching his men being killed all around.

He rolled his eyes, immediately threw away his long knife, and knelt on the ground: “I surrender!”

“Wait!”

Zhan Da came over and ordered his men to tie up the bandit leader and bring him to Aaron.

“My lord, the stronghold has been broken, and the bandit leader is here!”

Zhan Da shouted.

“You are the leader of this group of people? What grudge do I have against you?”

The big boss looked at Aaron, a little confused: “Are you… a Taoist?”

“Clean up the battlefield, and finish off all the enemy wounded, no matter how serious they are… Bandage the lightly wounded on our side, and commit suicide immediately if they are

seriously injured!”

Aaron was too lazy to look at him, looked around, and gave an order.

Then, the big boss was shocked to see that some of the seriously injured soldiers drew their swords and committed suicide, and some hit their heads against rocks, and really died like this… “You… you are not a human!”

“You are an evil ghost, an evil ghost… Haha…”

This shocking and impactful scene immediately made the big boss feel wrong. His face seemed to be crying and laughing, as if he had gone crazy.

“Kill him!”

Aaron waved his hand, and Zhan Da immediately cut off the big boss with a knife and beheaded him.

Immediately, a handful of red beans appeared in his hand and he scattered them.

A strange scene appeared!

The red bean fell into the pool of blood and penetrated into the wound on the neck of the big boss, causing his limbs to twitch. Then he stood up at an angle that violated human mechanics, grabbed his head, and pressed on the wound… Countless flesh and blood tentacles quickly entangled and repaired the wound.

After a while, a big boss with somewhat sluggish movements stood in front of Aaron.

And the six dead soldiers who had died before also resurrected and lined up.

“Big boss? No, from today on, you are called Hei Er!”

Aaron pointed at the big boss: “You had a conflict with Zhan Da’s mountain stronghold, then started a war, were defeated… and finally surrendered, understand?”

“Yes!”

Hei Er answered without hesitation.

Although it was not very flexible, it was probably enough to disguise as a mountain bandit.

And the people sent by Zhan Da to the mountain stronghold to receive it also came back: “My lord, we found a lot of food in the mountain stronghold, as well as cloth, silver and money…”

“Yes.”

Aaron nodded with satisfaction.

After this battle, he had almost no losses except for the luck points.

The team of 500 people not only did not lose, but became 600 people!

He smiled with satisfaction: “Leave 100 people, and the rest will follow me back!”

…

On the way back.

Aaron walked while thinking: “Six hundred soldiers… This consumption is getting bigger and bigger, but my family is getting thinner and thinner. It’s not enough to rely on the rewards from the government…”

Before, half of the supplies for these five hundred people were accumulated from the original mountain stronghold, and the other half was bought by Aaron from the county by selling the rewards from the government, such as the yellow jade Ruyi.

It can be said that all the expenses of this army were paid by the Dasong government before…

But this model obviously cannot last long.

As the team grows bigger and bigger, it is necessary to control a piece of land and collect taxes to support the army!

Taxation is the power of the state, so it is necessary to establish a regime!

“So… am I Fang La finally going to rebel? I’m a little excited when I think about it!”

While he was thinking, Zhan Da came to report: “Our spies found something strange on the road ahead!”

Aaron came to the front and saw that there was an official road outside, which separated the mountains and forests. Zhan Da would not shoot without a purpose.

He taught him to march and fight, and it was necessary to spread scouts widely, and he must execute it in a rigid manner!

“First, order the army to stop moving. I’ll go with you to take a look!”

Aaron thought about it, and took Zhan Da and the others to walk along the official road.

Not long after, he felt the ground shaking!

“It’s the sound of horse hooves, or military horses! More than one horse!”

Aaron asked a few people to stop. Not long after, he saw a team of more than a dozen cavalrymen chasing the three horses in front!

Seeing Aaron from a distance, he shouted: “The court is chasing the rebels, and those who dare to block the road will be killed!”

Aaron actually recognized the knight who ran away first!

“Du Longzi!? Why is this old guy being chased every time he meets? He’s having a miserable life…”

Du Longzi was escaping for his life, but he didn’t pay attention to Aaron, and rode past the few people.

The Fengxiang Army pursuers behind him had a fierce look on their faces, drew out their long swords, and borrowed horses to prepare to cut off the heads of the people who blocked the road!

After all, the court was chasing the rebels, and those who blocked the road would be killed without mercy, and it would be a waste of death!

Not only would it be a waste of death, but the head could also be counted as a military merit!

Whoosh!

Aaron also saw the ill intentions of these imperial cavalrymen, but he just smiled slightly and pointed at his hair.

The iron hairpin sword flew out and turned into a black light.

Whoosh!

In mid-air, the knights fell off their horses one by one, and blood spurted out of their bodies!

“Ah… Flying Sword Technique!”

“You are the demon Xu Lingzi!”

The cavalry leader shouted, and saw that all the arrows shot were shot down in mid-air, so he fled with a whip!

However, he was still too close, and was stabbed in the back by the iron hairpin sword. He fell off his horse and died…

“Gather all the horses… With this and the previous savings, we can form a cavalry squad.”

Aaron ordered happily.

War horses are completely different from ordinary horses. The first is the height, and then they have to undergo special training, and they can’t panic on the battlefield.

These dozen war horses are simply a windfall!

“Yes!”

Zhan Da immediately led people to pack up the horses, corpses, armor, and weapons…

Suddenly he heard the sound of horse hooves, but the three cavalry rushed for a while, and found that they were surrounded by hundreds of Liujia magic soldiers. return.

“Ah…are you Taoist Master Xu Lingzi?”

Du Longzi saw Aaron clearly and said with great joy: “Fellow Taoist saved the old Taoist’s life again.”

“We said goodbye in a hurry before, but I didn’t expect to see each other again today. “

Aaron laughed: “Why did the Taoist do this?”

“Alas…” Hearing Aaron’s question, Du Longzi couldn’t help but sigh: “It’s hard to explain…it’s so funny!”
