Chapter 1627 Great Change (5)
Under the fire, various forces on a tactical sand table are clearly divided. You can see that this sand table basically covers the entire Bailegang Empire, and uses different colors to mark the basic situation of the separatist forces of the empire today.
Among them, the yellow model representing the imperial royal family is basically concentrated near the imperial capital, while the purple model representing the Great Victory King surrounds the imperial capital. On the one hand, it surrounds the imperial power of the empire, and on the other hand, it also prevents the power of other empires from converging with the royal family's soldiers. This strategy is simple and crude, but it is difficult to do without the masters in the Great Victory King's army and the strong army.
As for the southern edge of the empire, the gray model representing the Iron Gun Ridge and the brown model in the Imperial Hall are still eye-catching. Especially the Iron Gun Ridge, this area should have been captured early in the morning, but King Jiwu was dead. Now the army is full of morale, so it has been shown that it has captured this territory for a long time.
King Pingxi rubbed his eyebrows. After King Jiwu's death, he had successfully taken over the command of King Jiwu's old subordinates through King Dasheng. However, King Jiwu's old subordinates obeyed him in a slight manner, especially King Jiwu's confidant Yuqin, who repeatedly interfered with it, making King Pingxi's only military power, but it was difficult for him to use his fingers.
Whenever he thought of this, King Pingxi was so angry that he felt so angry. But now King Dasheng was concentrating his troops to break through the imperial capital. Even if he was angry, he knew that he could not disturb the prince too much at this time. King Pingxi had ambitions, but unexpectedly, he suffered repeated setbacks after coming to this Western barbarian country. Now he no longer had the arrogance he had at the beginning.
His eyes looked south of Tiegu Ridge, where there were black models piled up. Looking at these models, he thought of the sudden appearance of alien army that day and the man who killed King Jiwu. Now that area is like a forbidden area in his eyes. As long as the other party does not expand, King Pingxi would not want to take the initiative.
Now for him, it is more important to capture the Iron Gun Ridge. Otherwise, once the emperor is destroyed, he will still have the last meritorious service, so how can he have the right to go back to see his ancestors?
Suddenly, King Pingxi's heart moved. He felt a moment of panic, as if something terrible was about to happen. Soon after, he heard the sound of rain. A general unveiled his tent, took off his helmet and cursed. Under the fire, the general was covered in blood. King Pingxi's heart pounded heavily and asked anxiously: "What's going on with you? Why are you so seriously injured?"
The general laughed and said, "Prince, don't be nervous, I'm fine. It's all because of the rain outside. This barbarian empire is also strange, and it even started to rain blood. I'm wearing it. The strange rain."
"Blood Rain?"
"Yes." The general opened the tent and said, "Your Majesty, there is blood rain outside. I'm afraid there is something unclean, so I have already asked the soldiers to return the tent, but there are still many people who have been sprayed into blood."
The King of Pingxi moved to the entrance of the camp and raised the lights to shine. Sure enough, there was blood rain outside the tent, and the tent was dyed red. When he raised the lamp, he saw blood tents standing in the rain. No matter how he looked, he felt uncomfortable.
That night, there was a bloody rain in the entire Bailegang, and none of them survived from south to north. The next day, although the rain stopped, there were more blood clouds in the sky. The dark red rain cloud gradually moved westward, moving towards the direction of the shadow principality.
It was during the day that everyone in the Iron Gun City held buckets of water and poured them onto their houses with buckets of water. The blood rain that fell last night poured all the buildings of the city into blood. How shocking it was, it was like hell appeared in the world. This morning, the Iron Gun Marquis issued an order to clean the whole city. Except for the army, all the residents in the city were mobilized. After buckets of clean water were poured down, the washed blood flowed along the street to the sewer. The scene was truly blood flowing into a river.
Standing on the rooftop of the City Lord's Mansion and looking down, you can see the blood rivers winding in the city. Huo Yi frowned and looked worried. Next to him was Yeying Bellek, one of the Ten Saints. The powerful man from the Bolin family was still dressed in a wandering mercenary outfit, wearing a black suit for easy movement, biting a cigarette gun and saying, "What are the Marquis worried about?"
"I have lived for most of my life and have never seen the bloody rain like last night. Lord Bellek, that must be not simple." Huo Yi said in a deep voice.
Bellek put down his gun and said, "The Marquis has not asked all the doctors in the city to check for the residents who have been wet with blood. If anything is abnormal, he should know it now."
Huo Yi sighed: "There are too many things in this world that are difficult to understand, including this blood rain. Although the doctors can't find anything, I always feel that something will happen."
"Maybe it's just Marquis, you're too worried. I think it's better to worry about a strange rain than to worry about the invaders outside the city."
Huo Yi nodded and said, "I hope I'm just too concerned."
Just as the two were about to leave the rooftop, a soldier hurriedly ran over and knelt down and said, "No, the Marquis. The soldiers in the army suddenly developed fever, and many soldiers had already fallen."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man who looked like a housekeeper came up: "Marquis, there is also fever in the city. Many residents suddenly had high fever and coma, and the doctor seemed helpless about this."
Huo Yi glanced at Bellek, and both of them saw a sense of anxiety and solemnity in each other's eyes.
However, it was not only Guncheng who had fever symptoms. Soon, King Pingxi also received relevant reports. On the same day, fever symptoms occurred in many places in the empire, including north and south, cities and towns, and more than 40% of the people had fever symptoms. Even Dasheng King, who was planning to concentrate his troops to attack the emperor, had to interrupt the plan because of a large number of fever soldiers in the army. For a moment, this strange high fever symptoms spread throughout the country like a plague. Doctors in the empire or military doctors in the Panlong Empire were helpless against this strange disease. They tried various methods but could not cool the patient down, just as the patient's blood burned by itself, and every patient with fever symptoms had a red skin.
Fortunately, a day passed, in addition to coma, patients with fever had signs of death. But for the Empire or the Eastern army, this was a huge blow.
However, greater blows began to follow.
On the evening of the next day, a scream rang out in the gun city. Huo Yi, who was in the study, heard the screams, quickly opened the door, and saw the butler running over and shouting, "Sir, you have to come and have a look."
They hurried to a room, which was originally a servant in the shelter of the mansion with fever. When Huo Yi pushed open the door, a wave of heat surged over. When he saw the scene in the room, the old Marquis was stunned.
