Forty-four unexpected [one thousand seven](1/2)
Dimora looked at the aggressive gangsters and felt helpless. Not only did she enter the city like this, but she also fought with dozens of people from the organization so flamboyantly. If the people from the military heard that Wuming had "inspended" into the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom like this, they would probably be very angry.
"Sir, aren't you afraid of annoying those dozen organizations?" Dimora asked carefully.
Wuming smiled softly and said, "Will a truly powerful team do such obvious bad methods? Only those who think they are doing this."
"But, if these organizations really unite..." Dimora asked worriedly.
Wuming smiled and said, "Don't you know that there is another thing called law? Even if it is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, there will be legal constraints."
One or two people fighting on the street usually do not threaten the lives and property of others, but if hundreds of people are fighting with armed forces, it will threaten other innocent people.
If a large-scale fight occurs in the city, no army guarding the city will remain indifferent, and the country that controls the city will not ignore it. If there is no basic survival guarantee, who dares to live in such an environment?
There were so many mercenaries coming to Tianchi City. It would be strange if there were no large number of troops stationed in this city to maintain public order.
Wuming took the gangsters off the horse and then walked into the inn. Unlike the noisy and chaotic environment on the street, the inn was so quiet. Mercenaries wearing various colors sat quietly in the hall, a little surprised by Wuming and others' entry, and there was a bit more alert when they looked at them.
After a while, Zhang Feng and others had completed the check-in procedures. One hundred and fifty soldiers walked up the stairs in silence in neat steps, and the wooden stairs trembled slightly.
The soldiers walked to the second floor, and Zhang Feng ran to the waiter, hugged the waiter, and said, "Brother, our chief wants to know what is going on here."
After a moment of frightened, the waiter quickly smiled and said, "What's wrong? These people just happened to pass by."
A silver coin popped out from Wuming's finger, rolled in the air for several times, and fell into the hand of the waiter.
"I heard that I was looking for something..." said the waiter.
Zhang Feng asked quickly: "What's it?"
"Well..." the waiter said hesitantly.
Another silver coin shining with white light flipped in the air. The waiter hurriedly said, "It seems to be something left behind in ancient times."
"Ancient?" When Wuming heard the ancient world again, he shook his body slightly. Whenever he stared at the lightsaber called the ancient civilization these days, he always felt familiar, and even had a ridiculous idea of using ancient civilization to find his past memories.
"Ancient?" Weidehai's eyes flashed with light, and he asked quickly: "Where is that thing?"
"This..." The waiter began to hesitate again, and his eyes kept aiming at Wuming walking in front of him.
The soldiers immediately felt that this waiter was very pitiful. Wuming loved money very well. Although they didn't understand why Wuming, who was so cruel, was so persistent about money, they still knew that they would never touch his bottom line.
On the way to Tianchi City, Wuming showed his passion for money more than once. Seeing Wuming's almost crazy behavior, Wei Dehai once said: "If the superior knew that the legendary dragon had the habit of collecting treasures, he would probably kill him directly to the dragon's nest."
A gold coin was shot out from Wuming's hand. The soldiers looked at Wuming in surprise, who had always loved money as his life. It was hard to imagine that someone would take a gold coin and two silver coins from Wuming's hand with a few words.
After the waiter caught the gold coins, he never beat around the bush and quickly told everything.
On the night of March more than a hundred years ago, a strange scene suddenly appeared above Tianchi Lake in Tianchi City. A strange man who was dozens of meters tall and covered with steel roared loudly and punched a hole on the ground with one punch. The two red eyes would emit a colored light, which could cut the trees that they hugged in half in an instant.
The next day, the anxious people searched around, hoping to find the trace of the weird man. However, after several months, no one could find the trace of the weird man.
Time passed quickly and ten years later, countless explorers returned in vain. Just as people were about to gradually forget about this, the same scene appeared again one night.
The appearance of the monster once again set off a treasure hunt in Tianchi City, and countless explorers came here again to find the monster.
But this time, the monster disappeared again after only once appeared. Many explorers spent a lot of money here and helped Tianchi City's economy, but in the end they did not find any valuable clues.
From then on, ten years have become a period for the appearance of monsters. Every March, the images of monsters will appear in the sky.
As time passed, people have more and more speculations about this weird person. Some people say that this is just an illusion made by Tianchi City itself, with the purpose of attracting others to come and consume. Some people say that this is an ancient god summoning his destiny and wants to pass his divine character and magic to this destiny person. Some people say that this should be an ancient magic weapon, and they also gave him a name - the Giant God Soldier.
So whenever the ten-year period arrives, a large number of people will appear in Tianchi City, hoping to find this legendary thing.
"March? It's just now that October is coming, these people are really active enough." Zhang Feng smiled and said, "Ancient Ruins Expedition is a bottomless pit!"
Wadehai nodded repeatedly. If the explorers of ancient ruins find something useful, they can become rich instantly. Unfortunately, such good luck rarely appears. More explorers spend their whole lives. After experts' research, they found that the things they dug out were just an ancient ashtray, or toilet, and the bankrupt explorers almost had them in the year.
"Customer, this row of rooms is all for you. If you have any questions or needs, you can find a small one at any time." The waiter walked out the door with a smile and said, "If you need a treasure hunt map, there are several versions of the small one here, and the price is fair."
The soldiers returned to their rooms one after another. Dimora pushed open the door of the nameless room and said, "Sir, you seem to be particularly interested in ancient things. Do you want to know more ancient civilizations?"
"Do you know a lot?" Wuming asked.
"I don't know much, but I know where there is a lot of information about this." Dimora smiled softly and said, "Mercenaries will get certain points after completing a mission, but few people will know the use of mercenary points, because when the mercenary points reach 50,000 points, the mercenary union will tell the other party that they can access the information stored by the mercenary union. For most mercenaries, this is a completely hidden secret. I heard that many of them are about ancient ruins."
"Is that true?" Wuming Ying looked at Dimora in front of him in confusion. The fat and chubby apprentice magician's performance has become more and more mysterious in recent times.
Dimora saw Wuming's puzzled eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up, and then returned Wuming's look, as if saying: 'Guess.'
Everyone has secrets that they don’t want to tell. Wuming doesn’t want to continue wasting time in Dimora’s identity, so he said: “As soon as we start tonight, we will act according to the plan.”
Dimora walked out of Wuming's room with a smile. She knew that the group of masters of the military headquarters were treated as waste and ran to the rear of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but she still carried out military missions so seriously. I really don't know what to say.
For three consecutive days, more than a hundred soldiers completely put aside their habit of fighting and causing trouble. Every day, when the sun just rose, he left one after another, and then wandered around in Tianchi City, until the sun set, and returned to the inn to rest.
People in Tianchi City all believed that these gangsters were also looking for the legendary ancient civilization in advance, and no one paid attention to them.
Such a peaceful day until the fourth night...
"What's wrong today? Why haven't the gangsters living on the third floor come back yet?" The waiter leaned against the door, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said, "It's already midnight now, do they want me to sleep?"
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and a team of hundreds of people is walking slowly. The armor and swords reflect a trace of cold light. Everyone has a blue scarf on their arms. You can tell at a glance that this is the army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
"Be careful!"
The leading centurion Li Ning issued an order. He took a few sips from the horse's back, then looked alertly at both sides of the mountain road, and secretly worried.
The development situation of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the past few months has not been very good, or it can be said to be very bad.
The Blue Turban Army relied on the occasion of the famine in the Shenlong Kingdom and also captured half of the Shenlong Kingdom.
Just as the Blue Turban Army was about to continue working hard on the battlefield and capture the next important city, the incompetent King Shenlong and his army seemed to suddenly get their heads open. They no longer used the generals who had used the wine bags, but instead replaced several brave and warlike generals on the front line in one breath, temporarily completely curbing the pace of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's advance.
Now that the Blue Turban Army's front line has lost its former momentum, a large number of national demands cannot continue to be obtained in battle, the demand from the front line has to be supplied from the rear. If this is the case, the new Taiping Heavenly Kingdom can still bear it.
However, a few years ago, the famine incident in which the Blue Turban Army rebelled occurred again, but this time the place happened was no longer in the Shenlong Kingdom, but on the land of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
Since June, it has not rained in many areas of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and even Tianchi City, a heavy grain-producing area, has reduced production a lot compared to the past.
Li Ning knew very well that when the Shenlong Kingdom was in a famine that day, the leaders of the town in a famine took advantage of that opportunity to attract public anger to the Emperor of the Shenlong Kingdom, and took advantage of the situation to rebel, hoping to overthrow this incompetent emperor.
Now the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has no other way to guide public anger elsewhere. The only way is to achieve a record on the front line as soon as possible. However, not long ago, the news of the marshal's death in battle made the future of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom worse.
Now that famine has occurred, many victims in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom have begun to take risks, forming bandits to rob families and even sneak attacks on the granaries of the nobles. A few days ago, an army transport team in Tianchi City was actually robbed by someone.
Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that the mercenary group took advantage of the chaos to make extra money. However, now that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is fighting abroad, some areas still rely on the help and cooperation of the corps, so they have no way to collect them for a while, so they have to send additional personnel when transporting materials.
"I have opened this mountain and I have planted this tree. I have to pass by it from now on and leave behind the wealth of buying roads! Don't keep buying roads! Do not care about killing or burying!"
A very heroic voice suddenly echoed in the valley. In just a blink of an eye, a team of nearly five hundred people rushed out of the woods on both sides of the road. Some of these people were holding kitchen knives, and even hoes, and only a few were holding sharp sabers.
In terms of equipment, Blue Turban Army leather armored steel knives and long spears are definitely an advantage, but in terms of number of people, it is obvious that these teams formed by these victims have an advantage.
The Blue Turban Army did not dare to act rashly for a while. You should know that these hungry victims are not just about eating food. According to the rewards of the soldiers who escaped by chance last time, these mobs are no different from madmen. During the battle, these people bite them closely when they are close to each other, just like a starving ghost reincarnated, and many soldiers were simply bitten to death.
"I really didn't expect someone to attack us." Zhang Feng, who was also hiding in the woods, whispered: "But the equipment of these people is too bad! Someone actually picked up stones from the ground as weapons to use them."
"Let's wait and see." Wuming gave a simple order, and one hundred and fifty soldiers watched the battle that was about to take place not far away with interest.
"You guys who killed someone last time and robbed food?" Li Ning asked, slowly drawing out his long sword.
"Put down the food! Hand over the weapons!" The team of nearly 500 people shouted loudly at the same time, and their momentum completely suppressed Li Ning's team for a while.
"Are there any ambushers?" Li Ning sneered at the victims and said, "If there is one, call them out together! Otherwise, it's up to you..."
"Kill!" At the order of the victims, nearly five hundred people rushed over with rough weapons.
The Blue Turban Army formed small battle formations to fight against the disarray victims who were much more numerous than them.
While the sharp spear pierced the body of the victim, the hoe in the hands of the victim who had not yet died was hit hard on the head of the Blue Turban Army. More than 600 people fought for more than a dozen trucks of food.
"Into the arrow." A cold voice suddenly came from higher places on both sides of the mountain road.
Countless arrow feathers flew towards the mountain at the same time at high speed. Before the victims who were about to attack the Blue Turban Army could react to what had happened, dozens of people were already caught in arrows and fell to the ground.
The Blue Turban Army, who transported food and grass, did not react immediately. Fortunately, they were well-trained, and only six soldiers fell down after the first round of arrow rain.
"Shoot the arrow." A cold voice sounded again, and the white arrow feathers flew over again under the moonlight.
Both sides who were about to fight in the mountain road no longer cared about each other, and they waved their weapons to resist the arrow feathers, and quickly looked for a place to hide.
"It's so dangerous! Fortunately, we didn't go out, otherwise we would become hedgehogs." Zhang Feng smiled and said, "The chief is the chief, and he even knows that there is a third force."
"I don't know. I originally planned to wait until both of them were injured before making plans. If the disaster victims win, we won't take action. If the Blue Wire Army wins, we will take action immediately. But now it seems..." Wuming's honesty made the soldiers secretly applaud.
After several consecutive rounds of arrow rains, a cold voice sounded again: "Assault! None of the rebel victims stayed!"
The team lying on the mountain finally appeared, and Zhang Feng whispered: "They are the Blue Turban Army! These guys are really not humans, they even dare to kill their own people!"
Wadehai echoed softly: "That's right! At most, we cheat our companions of money, and these guys actually use their companions' lives as bait."
The number of victims had long been reduced by half, and the remaining alive people had lost their combat effectiveness. When the Blue Turban Army on the mountain rushed down, they were immediately beaten to escape.
"You dare to attack military vehicles! Do you, the ungrateful group of you, forget who desperately saved you from the tyranny of the Dragon Kingdom?"
"It seems that I am so kind to you in normal times!"
The Blue Turban Army led by Li Ning waved the steel knife in his hand and kept cursing. The person who issued the order rode on a dragon that was only more than three meters high, quietly watching the unilateral killing, and said, "The speed must be fast! After killing them, you have to hurry to transport grain."
"Void Bone Dragon?" Wuming frowned slightly. This dragon is also a kind of irritable and ferocious dragon in the Greater Xing'an Mountains.
"Void Bone Dragon?" Wei Dehai looked at Wuming in surprise and said, "Sir, I can't tell that you know so well about dragons. I didn't expect that this time the Blue Turban Army would actually send a dragon knight."
The unilateral massacre ended soon, and Wuming just watched quietly from beginning to end, and wanted to exchange the lives of his companions for the lives of passers-by whom he had never met. He would not do such a thing.
To be continued...
