Back Off, Let Me Come Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122 Chapter 1122: Fire burns the city (Part 2) [Ask for double monthly votes]

 The three armies and horses joined forces smoothly.

 The time to defeat the last layer of defense in Gaowangdu was shorter than expected. As the head of the country, Shen Tang was very generous to the ministers who worked for her, even though she was extremely poor. So with the help of money, fame, big cakes and all kinds of chicken soup propaganda, the army marched as fast as divine help. The whole army is enveloped in a haze of "if you are slow, you will lose the military glory", every time you want to blame me for not giving birth to two more legs.

 Until the excitement was extinguished by a fire.

 Yes, fire!

Fires rose in the direction of King Gao's capital.

The fire soared into the sky, burning most of the sky red.

Shen Tang's heart trembled: "Ji Shou, come with me!"

The two places are so far apart and you can still see the light of fire. I can't imagine the extent of the fire in the city. Immediately, without any hesitation, she called a few literary scholars to go over and put out the fire first. Others moved forward as usual, paying attention to possible ambush along the way.

 There is no sense of etiquette, justice or shame in fighting in troubled times.

Shen Tang didn't dare to bet whether the fire was a vicious plan devised by the enemy to delay his own progress, or whether it was a trap that the enemy used the city as bait to lure him into, with the intention of killing everything. I thought of this in a flash.

It was a strange plant with a trunk so thick that even several big men could not hug it. The crown of the tree was dense, and countless branches could be extended in the blink of an eye. These tree branches burrow into the ground, feed on the earth, and spread wildly underground. These branches are particularly sensitive to the breath of life and can immediately detect whether there are living things on the ground. Jimo Qiu set up this formation, and a figure passed by him.

"The rest of the people march as usual and be on alert!"

 It's just that I can't say these words.

 A trap that can trap ants has no effect on wild beasts. In her opinion, there is no conflict between putting out fires and attacking cities.

 She thought about it, and so did everyone else.

I don't know how long this fire has been burning. If they arrive on the front foot, the royal capital will completely collapse and turn into a sea of ​​​​fire... What if the Lord throws the blame on himself?

 My waist is not good and I cannot carry such a big burden.

With this outfit, you can wear it at any time just like military armor.

Shen Tang specially left Gong Xiqiu behind to guard the formation to prevent the enemy from making a surprise attack. He took Kang Shi and others and approached the fire as quickly as possible. Kang Shi felt helpless when he heard the order. It was not that he didn't want to make this trip, but that he was afraid that he would go at an inappropriate time.

 “God's gift·Hanmu Chunhua, start the formation!”

Save as many as you can, do your best, and obey the destiny!

 After saying that, he took the lead in transforming into armor, held his breath and rushed into the sea of ​​fire. Jimo Qiu followed immediately, and the moment he stepped onto the city wall, circles of mysterious formation patterns appeared under his feet with him as the center. The wooden stick touched one of the areas, and divine power poured out.

Wenxin scribes all have their own favorite words and spirits, and Kang Shi is the best at playing with water among them. Every time he fights, he likes to use [flood the seven armies] to attack the enemy's formation. Other scribes were not proficient in this area, and no one was more suitable than Kang Shi.

 In an instant, a huge object rose from the ground in the center of the royal capital.

From a rational point of view, Shen Tang should be more cautious and slow down the march appropriately. After all, it is not her job to put out fires. Afterwards, she can write an edict blaming the Gao Wang court for how unconscionable and cruel it is. Occupy the moral high ground and criticize the high country. But if she really did this, she would no longer be Shen Youli: "Traps can only surround the weak."

While distracted, use your peripheral vision to explore along the road.

Without having to match the speed of the army, Shen Tang and others rushed to a place several miles outside the city in the shortest possible time. From such a distance, the howling of wolves could still be carried along the wind and reached everyone's ears. She raised her head with a heavy heart.

 I'm afraid that the enemy will find out the Lord's temper and make a big one on the road! The enemy's shadow was not seen, but a faint green light flashed away. He turned his head and looked around, just in time to catch the hint of green transforming into the high priest's robe on Jimo Qiu's body.

The air above the royal capital has been distorted by the tongues of fire, and waves of scorching air mixed with a burning smell invade the nasal cavity. One look at the fire in front of her, and she knew that the fire was a poisonous plot rather than a trap.

 When you are healthy, you can do two things at once.

 “Lord, be careful of traps.”

 Because he knew in his heart that the Lord had to bring him with him.

 “Everyone, let's do it!”

 Along with it is the crisp water vapor in the wind.

 “The seven armies were flooded!”

The water column turned into a dragon, and the water dragon soared upwards from outside the city, crossed the high wall, and rushed over the fire with indomitable momentum. One water dragon, two water dragons, three water dragons...a total of nine! They disintegrated simultaneously in the same area, turning into a downpour that fell precisely. Although the water dragon is huge and has an amazing amount of water, it is nothing compared to this sea of ​​fire!

 Kang Shi was also worried when he saw this. He stood on the remnant pillar that had just turned off and made up his mind. At this time, he didn't care about the cost! Chong Jimo Qiu said: "Jimo High Priest, support me with some literary spirit."

Jimo Qiu did not hesitate: "Okay!"

 Kang Shi raised his hand and transformed into two incarnations of literary energy.

 The incarnation divides the troops into two groups and continues to use [flooding the seven armies] to turn as much cultural energy into water as possible, while the main body activates the way of the scribes. He opened his eyes and said: "Heaven and earth are the game, and all living beings make bets—"

With a wave of his sleeves, and with the support of Jimo Qiu Wenqi, he also became generous. Thirty-two giant tooth cards flew in all directions, connecting them into a circle to include the Wangdu fire scene.

As the tooth cards were put into place one after another, little lights like the stars in the sky quietly appeared over the capital. The fire kept jumping in Kang Shi's eyes, covering up his nervous heart at the moment.

This tension was instantly replaced by perseverance.

 The common people in the city are the chips in this game of chess.

He is bound to lose every time he bets, but this is the only time he will win every time he bets!

"The luck of heaven and earth is all in my hand." A tooth card was turned over, and the lines on it were like vast water waves. As he made a bow and arrow, an obvious cliff suddenly dropped in the surrounding heat. The energy of heaven and earth gathered towards him like a whale swallowing the sea, and the target was the tooth card that flew into the formation, "God, help me!"

As soon as the words fell, sharp arrows shot out.

 The sharp arrow sank into the tooth plate, and the water rippled.

This arrow seemed to tear open the opening from the Tianhe River to the human world, and countless water pillars sprayed in all directions. But this scale is still no match for the fire, which can at best resolve the dilemma in this area. Just when Kang Shi looked ugly, another figure arrived belatedly. With his arrival, rain clouds quickly gathered over the royal capital.

 There was a strong wind, the sky was dark, the earth was dark, the wind and rain were dim.

 It rained lightly at first, and then it rained heavily.

With this unexpected heavy rain, Kang Shi breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care that he was also soaked in the rain. He showed a sincere smile and praised: "Yiyi, you came just in time!"

Luan Xin glanced at the Yapai water column that was increasing in power. He took another look at Kang Jishou's condition.

 Wen Teng said: "Do you want to collect some?"

Kang Jishou's display of prowess is indeed eye-catching. The water column fell to catch up with the flood discharge, but when the fire underneath was extinguished, it was also surrounded by "floods". Fortunately, the water level is not high and no one can be drowned. Where the affected people will be washed away is beyond human control. Kang Shi was also worried about this, but it was the lesser of two evils. The water would not kill people, but the fire would burn people if not extinguished.

 Until Jimoqiu gave him a reassurance.

Kang Shi saw a branch rising wildly below him, and the extended part dexterously wrapped around the person who was washed away by the flood. While the other person is still in shock, he lifts the person high. Looking around, there are dense branches nearby that are moving closer to the safe area. Every branch was entangled with people, whether they were old people, children, or young adults. Most of them didn't even have the strength to struggle. In addition to fear, there was also happiness in their eyes that they had survived the disaster.

These branches climb out along the city wall.

　　After putting the person down, he retreated and searched for the next living person.

The survivors who were rescued from the fire scene were stunned for a long time, and they couldn't even care about the burning pain on their bodies. They hugged and cried with the people around them.

 I didn't expect that I could escape.

There are only a limited number of people who can move the branches. More survivors were either washed out of the fire ring by the flood, or accidentally discovered that the fire in their hiding place was strangely small and mustered up the courage to escape. A few people are lucky to have saved their lives, while more people are screaming and crying! Because of the burns, and because my loved ones were left behind in this fire forever.

 Looking at Shen Tang, her methods are even more brutal.

Completely arouse one's own aura, suppress the fire with force, and then slash a highway with a sword, completely blocking the fire with domineering force. With anger sinking in his Dantian, he shouted at the people hiding everywhere: "Everyone, please escape along this road!"

Most of the residents in the city were made of wood that was easy to make fire, and the people who started the fire also used strong fire oil. The fire took shape in the shortest time, and many people had no time to escape. Shen Tang was so angry that his teeth itched with hatred!

Those who set fire should be cut to pieces by a thousand swords!

In a fire of this scale, the efforts of Shen Tang and others were only to stop the fire from spreading and to rescue the living people who still showed signs of life. It wasn't until the main force of the army arrived and the whole army worked together that it took two days to put out the fire. However, King Gao, who had devoted countless efforts to Wu Xian, could not save it. 70% of the area was destroyed, and everything you could see was ruins. .

The sky is still drizzling.

The soldiers silently dug out the charred corpses one after another from the ruins.

Shen Tang was sitting in the corner, staring blankly ahead, with his hands folded on his knees. He didn't even notice when Wu Xian stepped on the puddle and approached. After a long time, she finally reacted and raised a face that was so dark that it couldn't hide its haggard face: "Brother Zhaode, your vision is indeed bad! If you and I don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of you and me. "Do you know how many people died this time?"

　　War is a war and what harm is done to the common people?

The fire did keep her under control for two days and bought valuable time for the fleeing people, but - who of the people Shen Youli wanted to kill would survive? She wants the other party to die at the third watch. If the Lord of Hell dares to keep someone alive until the fifth watch, she will kill him too!

Shen Tang's eyes were covered with red threads.

Said: "Brother Zhaode, let me say hello to you first - if one of your Wu clan sets this fire, I want the lives of all nine of his clans! Even if they surrender, I will still kill them! Fuck the rules of our ancestors, My word is the biggest rule!”

 She will not give the other party a chance to surrender!

 That man's entire family was ready to chop up even the earthworms!

Wu Xian's face turned pale for a moment.

He knows best how much effort Wangdu has put into it.

 Watching the very familiar place reduced to ruins, he felt as sad as anyone else. After hearing Shen Tang's murderous statement, Wu Xian truly understood where he had lost.

His lips were filled with bitterness: "Leave a few heads for me."

Shen Tang said: "Even if it's your son?"

 Wu Xian's wives and concubines basically came from various families, big and small, and he gave birth to bloodline numbers 40 to 50 with these women. In terms of blood, the Wu Xian clan is related to any family. It's hard to say that the mastermind of this fire has nothing to do with the Wu family! Shen Tang had dark thoughts in his mind, suspecting that the fire was ordered by the new master of the Gao Kingdom, Wu Xian's own son, who had escaped from the palace...

 Wu Xian said coldly: "Then I will kill myself!"

He asked himself that he was not a good person, but he was so mad that he set fire to the city to delay the enemy. He could not do it and did not allow anyone to do so. Shen Tang's mouth overflowed with sarcasm. This was the first time she had expressed her malice directly in front of Wu Xian.

No one could have imagined that things would develop like that.

 Wu Xian failed to kill his son and saw his son's head first.

On the same day, Shen Tang sent Gong Xiqiu and Wei Shou to pursue the enemy with 40% of their troops, and the remaining men went into fire rescue.

Gong Xiqiu set out in the afternoon and came back in more than an hour.

 The first person to discover that Gong Xiqiu had returned was Jimo Qiu.

Shen Tang has a better sense of living people than others, so he simply rolls up his sleeves and digs people out of the rubble. Jimo Qiu can be used as a Xinglin doctor. His magical power can stabilize the heart of the dying and fight for the medical treatment of the injured camp. Precious time.

Jimo Qiugang took his hand away from the person's chest, looked up in a certain direction as if sensing something, and frowned slightly. Shen Tang saw his expression when he carried the two corpses out: "Are you feeling it?"

 Are there enemies approaching?

Jimo Qiu shook his head: "No, it's A Nian who's back."

Shen Tang paused: "So fast?"

 One hour cannot catch up with the other party's three days' journey.

She ignored the dirt on her body and hurried out of the city.

 It is obviously not normal to rush back so quickly.

Is it possible that we were ambushed on the road?

 In order to reduce losses, Gong Xiqiu had to lead his troops to retreat?

 This is not in line with Gongxi Qiu Laozi's character of being the best in the world.

During the not-so-long journey, dozens of guesses flashed through Shen Tang's mind. Until she came out of the city wall, she keenly smelled the abnormally strong smell of blood in the air: "Gongxi Qiu!"

She first saw Wei Shou, who had a complicated expression, and then Gong Xiqiu, who was not in a very high-spirited mood. Shen Tang went straight to the point and asked, "Yuanyuan, what happened? Why did you return so quickly?"

 Wei Shou opened his mouth and sighed.

 He made a sideways movement and raised his palm, signaling to the soldiers behind him to bring things up. As the soldiers approached, the smell of blood became stronger. Shen Tang lowered his eyes and looked at the box held high by the two soldiers. Based on the size of the box, she roughly guessed what was inside. When Wei Shou saw that Shen Tang did not reach out to open the box, he suggested: "Hey, my lord, do you want to call Wu Zhaode over?"

At this time, Shen Tang confirmed the identity of the owner of the box.

When Wu Xian arrived, he saw blood dripping from the cracks in the box, and his heart beat rapidly: "Whose is it?"

 Gong Xiqiu: "The new lord of Gao Kingdom and...the Queen Mother."

 Sigh, Zheng Qiao's lunch boxes were distributed last Labor Day, and they are also distributing lunch boxes this Labor Day.

PS: Shiitake has compiled a new keyboard. If you are interested, you can try it~

PPS: Even Tang Mei said the strong smell of blood must be more than just these two box lunches.
