33.7 Collapse, chaos(1/2)
His Majesty the Emperor finally had no chance to accept letters from Genghe.
Holy Gu Calendar, March 9, 2017.
In the desert of lying beasts, the emperor's troops were marching on the Gobi gravel beach. The long-legged war insects were rushing on the ancient road like war horses.
Carnivores have short legs that are conducive to low crawling and culling; while herbivores have long legs that are conducive to maintaining kinetic energy and rushing for a long distance. These are all specialized needs for the "survival of the fittest". However, Zhou You saw these baggage insects for the first time and thought it was really eye-opening.
The baggage insect has two sets of legs, which are in assault form during wartime, and its short and thick legs are as powerful as the legs of a jumping spider.
Now these six are slender legs. They usually shrink into their bodies like tentacles. When needed, nutrient solution in the body will be quickly injected into the flexible bone tube to harden them and form a running structure.
Of course, if no longer needed, these long rods and six-legs will fall off. Their falling off structure can be recycled by the mouth to reduce material loss.
This double-fitting leg mechanism is comparable to a wheel gear lever.
Now this marching golden corps is moving towards the north. In the sky, dozens of flying dragons monitor the earth and explore the surrounding situation.
However, these large flying dragons with wings spreading 50 meters, their eyes swept across the earth, but it was difficult to notice some super-small beetles. These beetles took off in the light hidden state of transparent balloons, hovered in the sky for a while, and flew away.
Fifty-three kilometers away, in a sand dune.
A concubine's servant under the command of the Four Princes looked at the Emperor's heavy beetle in the insect nest through the shared perspective of surveillance beetle, and conspiracy flashed in his pupils.
That night.
When the troops returning to the imperial capital rushed into a dry river, the sound of the metal limbs and feet of the insect swarm rubbing against the ground changed significantly compared to the previous one.
His Majesty the Emperor struck his whip and stopped to look at the majestic river channel washed out in the early days of the great creation and the era of heavy rainstorms. A trace of anxiety suddenly flashed in his heart.
He looked at the volcanic cone-shaped sand dunes with a diameter of 100 meters in the distance. The dunes were one at an average of 500 meters, making this place like a large grave group. At the top of these dunes, there was a hot air flow that made the light twist.
He quickly asked the attendant beside him. After taking out the paper and writing, he said, "Your Majesty, this is the worm nest of the imperial tomb."
Emperor Lihe: "What worm!?"
Frightened by the emperor's sudden increase in sound, the attendant quickly said carefully: "Yes, imperial tomb worms, level seven worms, they are usually very quiet. They live by swallowing underground metals."
The emperor waved, "This place is ominous to me, leave quickly."
However, at this moment, an explosion occurred underground. With the terrifying vibration, a large number of worms surged out from the top of the volcanic cone. This brown-yellow worm gave people a visual feeling like a poop erupting.
After the worms gush out, they emit an unpleasant odor, which is the odor pheromone.
Then, frantically search for non-same targets.
Most Guworms usually have low-level obedience to higher-level obedience. This obedience mechanism usually depends on which side has a strong electromagnetic information field.
However, some situations are quite special. When some high-level female insects sense the death threat, they will order all low-level insects to distinguish their enemies and me according to pheromones.
At that time, insects of the same kind between different nests would fight each other. However, they would give priority to fighting against individuals with the biggest gap between pheromones and themselves, namely the foreign Zerg.
Under the command of this chemical pheromone, although the insects have no tactics, they do not avoid higher-level insects. This is the mechanism of the low-level female Gu's dying counterattack.
When the distant mound erupts.
The emperor was shocked, but his face was firm and ordered his war insects to form a combat array. The sparkling golden armored insects suddenly formed a metal wall.
The emperor called his golden ceratopsaurus and tried to take off to command the war. The four-winged wings were ordered to dive down, and in an instant, only the shadow of the wings that were pulled high were left on the ground.
Looking down at the earth from the sky, the emperor's corps received effective command at the first time and quickly arranged it into a golden ring protective belt, blocking the raid of the feces and "earthworms" coming from all directions.
However, although the emperor who went to heaven could easily and quickly issue orders to all the corps, his goal became significant.
In less than two minutes, a large number of shaking wings sounds came from the sky. Dozens of white flying insects were flying towards the golden-armored dragon in the sky, as if they had been on standby in the sky.
The emperor looked into the distance and looked shocked!
With the emperor's final reluctance and rebuke: "Feedling winged locust!", these locusts carrying nitroglycerin hit the emperor's mount like sunshine. The flames gave the great figure of the empire a grand funeral.
The Golden Beetle Empire, II, collapsed.
Twenty minutes later, the desert worm swarm was repelled by the generals on the ground. They hurriedly ran to the place where the emperor fell, but only saw the corpse of the broken golden-armored dragon, the emperor's torn armor and bones. The generals of these empires looked as if they were dead.
...
And two thousand kilometers away, the sunset.
In a pavilion, the fourth prince who was cooking tea stood up suddenly after receiving the news from his confidants, walked to the wall to pick up a chess piece, blocking a large dragon in the chess game on the wall.
The troubled times have arrived completely.
...
Today, most noble families are watching and trying to take advantage of the troubled waters. However, these nobles actually did not expect that they would be dragged down from this troubled water.
The feather-winged Locust family was so unlucky. Their family’s characteristic self-explosion of the Gu insects was the prince who was nominally supported by him, so he took it over to assassinate the Holy Gu II at the forefront. All the princes of the empire were in an uproar and rebuked the feather-winged Locust for being so despicable in the national sorrow.
The feather-winged locust family is now unaware of the fact that the fourth brother who has formed an alliance with him is so confused, why he jumped into such a big rebellion and committed such a big death at this time. From the perspective of the Four Princes, if he doesn't jump into the wrong now, he will never jump in the future.
This royal family has a very good understanding of frontier officials like the Feather-Winged Locust family.
Lie Locust recently connected most of the nobles in the north and was quite tempted to become an independent kingdom. There is also the reason for the world tour. Ran Lun built an industrial center in Xiahong, which promoted material exchanges on the northern coastline to a certain extent. Huangchi City, which endorsed Xiahong Island, also achieved great benefits in this communication.
The Four Princes must not allow the Flying Flying Locust to fly alone. If the Flying Flying Locust is full, the host and guest will not be allowed to change. Moreover, the cooperation between Zhou You and His Majesty the Emperor has led to some factions of the Flying Flying Locust becoming emperor factions. If this faction continues to occupy the upper part of the Flying Locust, the Flying Flying Locust may use the Four Princes as bargaining chips to exchange with the center.
Therefore, this is why the four princes joined hands with the Feilou family's own mother to plan to leave alone.
The feather-winged locust family is already in chaos.
To the outside world, we must be consistent with the outside world, but the entire family inside was originally good, but a few people dragged it into the water... The head of the family wanted to fight against the internal rebellion but was afraid of damaging the family's foundation.
...
And here on the burning wheel.
Zhou You: "Political Qingming, Qingming... With this chaos in the struggle of the 'inner' as a counterexample, I finally know the meaning of this word."
The rifle has always regarded the rifle as a stable chain of interests. Minerals and talents. Based on these interest chains, the rifle obeys some orders of the rifle and obeys the strong suggestions of the rifle when necessary to attack the common enemies of both sides. For example, the floating family.
If Lie Locusts do not hesitate to damage their reputation and threaten them with material chains, Zhouyou will really have to destroy the floating families on the island. However, after being destroyed, they will definitely work harder to develop independently, and will become more and more cautious in cooperation with Lie Locusts.
This kind of "hand grip" can make other subordinate forces fight a war with a reputation. The biggest function of the button to start a war is like a nuclear bomb loaded on a launcher, which can achieve huge benefits through deterrence.
The Lie Locust family is able to do it themselves, making subordinate forces very difficult.
For example, Zhou You now resolutely condemns the behavior of the Lie Locust family.
Because it is impossible to keep going, even if it will cause a huge impact on Xiahong Island, the human resources potential in the land bridge area is much larger than the trade volume provided by the Lie Locust family.
Moreover, the north had just engaged in a strategic alliance with Genghe, the emperor's faction, and even the armored troops were sent. If he didn't make a clear statement... Thinking from the perspective of others, Genghe would definitely be lingering in fear of this kind of behavior of Erwuzi.
Now that the Second Emperor has passed away, the remaining military forces are here, and they obviously cannot retaliate against the Lie Locust family. However, if they plunder the waterways and trade points of the Burning Wheel in anger, the damage caused will be great.
In name, you cannot put your words to the enemy. At the same time, you must ensure that others do not take advantage of this matter!
Twelve hours after the emperor's death, at the military meeting of the Rising Wheel, Zhou You proposed to enter a state of preparation and use a large-scale battle within two months to launch a major strike against the second prince who is now breathing a wave of rest to ensure military deterrence.
The telegram has been sent to Xiahong Island, and a large amount of military supplies are being transported towards Xishui Port.
On the dock, the crane lifted a group of containers. Due to the shortage of metal materials, these containers except for the skeleton, the upper and lower chassis are made of metal, and all the other four sides are wooden boards.
In Xishui Port, the tank assembly factory is constantly assembling the equipment day and night. The air force flew over quickly while there was no intercepting force on the ocean.
...
The chaos in the "六" continental region is even more chaotic and has many different forms. The impacted burning wheel is just the tip of the iceberg in this chaos.
Since all forces are feudal organizations, their reaction speed is much slower than that of the World Games. Now all parties are still trying to sort out the clues of this series of events.
The "clue" is the imperial capital, Huangchi City, and several other princes, the center of these major events.
Moreover, these drama actors are very capable of acting and really absorb the attention of the world.
The six princes who occupied the capital were true. After confirming that the eldest brother was dead, they immediately mourned the country and then killed dozens of people who had originally spread the rumors that their eldest brother had obtained the position.
These dozens of "slanderers" were tied to a rocky punishment platform, blocked their mouths, and the executioner weighed two tons, and they directly pinched their heads and shot them with pliers. The scene was very bad.
And speaking, it was because he discovered that there was a traitor around his elder brother that he entered the Giant Koudu to wipe out the rebels.
Recently, I was just waiting for the emperor's brother to return and apologize at the city gate. However, the cunning party of the rebels actually separated himself from his elder brother forever.
After this guy made this move, he quickly made his elder brother's son the new emperor and became the regent himself. The meaning was very clear and he wanted to accept the surrender of the generals in the south. As for whether the generals in the south would believe it? Only fools would believe it, but there were many weak generals who would "believe it" in order to protect themselves.
As for the fifth prince who withdrew from the imperial city, he found that the capital was so cheap that he was picked up by the stupid and stupid Lao Liu. He was in a bad mood. Although he did not turn against him directly, he simply raised the prince's flag in his fiefdom, which seemed to be his own faction. This behavior was the same as the second prince. It was just that the second prince jumped too early and was beaten, and he was fine.
Well, it’s not okay. Under the control of the Regent, the young Golden Armor Dynasty made wishes to all parties, including the five princes. But a larger official was granted to the north of the five princes.
...
In the north, in the mountains lined with huge crystals.
Black mother nests are located in this mountain range, and mushrooms that are comparable to giant banyan trees spread out their black umbrella covers, absorbing the energy sprinkled by the sun.
This is the Northern Legion of the Empire. The role of this Legion is to expel the "remnants" of the Northern Fenglong Empire.
In fact, the Fenglong Empire no longer existed. The so-called remnants driven by the Northern Legion over millions of square kilometers was a completely insect-like barbarian group.
Compared with the Golden Beetle Empire, this is a failed branch of humanity.
Insectification is an extremely malignant side effect. The nobles of the golden beetle usually parasitize with larvae when they are pure humans. During sectification, at least the reproductive glands are not contaminated.
The remnants of the Fenglong Empire were very pitiful a hundred years ago. They were forced to merge with some broken adults in order to survive, and the side effects of insectization were almost uncontrollable. Now they have been completely embedded in the sequence of the insect insects. Perhaps only in the brain tissue can traces originating from humans be seen.
These groups are about seven or eight of them, and they have strange appearances: some are huge multi-armed giants, some are flying people spreading their membrane wings, and some are huge pythons entrenched in caves... These barbarian groups actually have no threat to the rule of the Golden Beetle Empire. Just occasionally one or two leaks out, which can easily cause huge economic losses to the prosperous areas of the empire. Therefore, the old emperor would deploy in the north, leave this Gu nest force to expel these barbarian Gu groups.
To be continued...
