Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Six: Zhao Yun, Zuo Ci
A few days later, Qilian Mountains.
Xiao Wen came with five thousand fine cavalry and arrived here.
When the army came to the foot of the mountain, Xiao Wen stopped running and looked up at the mountains in front of him.
The next second, he got off the Flying Tiger, stepped on the mountain with his soles, and felt the energy fluctuations under the mountain.
At that moment, the Taiping suit exuded a hazy luster, and its characteristics were inspired by Xiao Wen, sensing the power of the dragon vein hidden underground.
Suddenly, Xiao Wen felt a surge of power pouring directly into the Baihui point along the Yongquan point on the sole of his foot.
The power is surging and boiling.
The power of the dragon vein in this place has indeed undergone some changes.
Xiao Wen sighed, but he raised his head and looked straight ahead.
Ahead, there was a dark shadow running towards me.
These were the defenders left by Han Sui in the Qilian Mountain military camp.
The leader was a broad-shouldered general. When the general's eyes fell on Xiao Wen, his face immediately changed to a look of respect, and he even hurriedly turned over and bowed to Xiao Wen.
"The last general, Qi Daniu, pays homage to the general!"
Xiao Wen came back to take over the affairs of the Qilian Mountain Military Camp. Ma Teng had already greeted the military camp and asked them to cooperate fully.
Xiao Wen rushed towards the Qilian Mountains with 5,000 elite cavalry, which naturally caused quite a stir. People from the military camp discovered this and sent a team in advance to greet him.
Xiao Wen's eyes fell on Qi Daniu, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and then nodded: "Get up, no need to be polite."
"I have to trouble you this time." Xiao Wen glanced at Qi Daniu and said slowly.
Qi Daniu was flattered by these words.
"I don't dare. It is an honor for the general to serve the general." Qi Daniu said.
In front of this hussar general, he did not dare to make any mistakes.
Hearing this, Xiao Wen didn't say much, he just asked the other party to lead the way to the Qilian Mountain military camp.
The first half of the military camp is located on the alluvial plain at the foot of the Qilian Mountains, with lush wild grass. You can see horses grazing and soldiers training on horseback everywhere.
The second half of the military camp extends from the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain. It mainly builds some defense facilities such as trebuchets to prevent attacks by wild beasts in the mountains.
At the same time, it is also to deal with the invasion of foreign enemies.
When investigating the Qilian Mountain military camp, Xiao Wen did not take action himself, but left the matter to Ma Chao.
Ma Chao is much more suitable to do this kind of thing than him.
Moreover, he has Guo Jia assisting him, and the combination of civil and military skills will not cause any trouble.
With this thought in his mind, Xiao Wen decided to become a hands-off shopkeeper. He found a secluded place and started browsing the forum to see if there was any news worth noting.
If you can find some information about Dongning Pavilion, it would be the best.
However, forget it, as soon as you entered the player forum, you saw a lot of posts from players discussing Dongning Pavilion.
[Dear me! What did I see? A team of more than 100,000 players passed by my territory. It made me tremble with fear!]
[All members of Dongning Pavilion are dispatched? Are they going to fight Dong Zhuo? 】
[Oh my God! Those crazy guys bulldozed my territory in ten minutes!]
…
After reading the series of posts, Xiao Wen frowned slightly and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
These guys are really here and have already arrived in Xiliang!
Next, some busy work!
Thoughts flashed across his mind, and Xiao Wen's eyes became sharp at this moment.
Not long after, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Guo Jia walked in.
"Have you figured out the situation?" Xiao Wen raised his eyebrows, looked at the three of them, and asked.
Ma Chao nodded and said: "There are 8,000 reserve recruits in the military camp, 5,000 formal cavalry, 6,700 war horses, 3,218 handymen, and the food reserves are enough to feed the army for two years...
"
Each piece of information came out of Ma Chao's mouth, but it was extremely precise.
Xiao Wen, who was listening on the sidelines, also had a surprised look on his face.
As for Zhao Yun and Guo Jia, the expressions on their faces looked a little helpless.
Xiao Wen:……
Meng Qi!
I just asked you to count the number of people so that you can deal with it if there is a fight.
but you……
It’s not like you have to touch all your own pants, right?
I have no intention of occupying this military camp.
Xiao Wen wanted to defend himself in this way, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea.
Since Ma Chao has already investigated everything clearly, there is no need to say more about other matters.
"Very good. Have all the scouts been sent out?"
"Lord, we have been sent out. News will come back tonight at the latest." Ma Chao responded. After finishing speaking, his mouth opened slightly, as if he was planning to say something, but he hesitated.
"What else can Meng Qi do?" Seeing Ma Chao's expression, Xiao Wen couldn't help but ask.
"My lord, when the general was inspecting the military camp, he discovered something strange." Ma Chao did not hide anything and said in a low voice.
"oh?"
Xiao Wen raised his eyebrows, showing some interest.
"In the large tent of wounded soldiers in the back camp, many wounded soldiers were found, and many of them had claw wounds on their bodies. If I guessed correctly, they should have been injured by the beasts in the back mountain."
"According to what the wounded soldiers said, the beasts in the mountains have become more restless and extremely ferocious these days."
"In the past, tigers that would never come out of the mountain easily have appeared three times in succession these days, causing considerable trouble to the soldiers patrolling the mountain," Ma Chao said.
After saying that, General Ma couldn't help but raise his head and glanced quietly at Guo Jia standing aside.
Sensing Ma Chao's gaze, Guo Jia smiled bitterly, took a step forward, and said, "My lord, the general is right."
"Since my lord is here for the Ancestral Dragon's Cave, these ferocious beasts in the mountains will inevitably become an obstacle. They need to be cleared away before entering to avoid adding variables."
Xiao Wen said nothing, leaned on his chair and fell into deep thought.
A bunch of crazed beasts?
No, to be precise, it should be a strange beast.
Beasts that have been baptized by dragon veins and earth energy will awaken the forgotten ancient bloodline in their bodies and become existences similar to strange beasts in reality.
"I understand. Don't worry about the ferocious beasts in the mountains. Just find someone to keep an eye on them. It's just that the beasts are ferocious, and ordinary people may not be able to handle them. Zilong, please bring a few experts into the mountains to investigate first and find the source of the beasts' restlessness.
.”
"If something cannot be done, return as soon as possible. In everything, safety is the most important thing."
Xiao Wen tilted his head, looked at Zhao Yun aside, and said.
Hearing this, Zhao Yun's eyes brightened slightly, and he immediately bowed: "General, I obey! We will set off now."
After that, he turned around and left.
For this investigation, he alone is enough. After all, there are too many people, and the target in the mountains and forests is too obvious, and it is easy to be discovered by the group of ferocious beasts.
If he goes there alone, even if he is really attacked by ferocious beasts, he can escape unscathed.
However, before entering the mountain, you still have to find the veterans in the military camp and ask about the general situation in the mountain.
Seeing Zhao Yun leaving, Xiao Wen nodded, sent Ma Chao and Guo Jia down to prepare a defensive offensive, and warned them that they were about to face a tough battle!
Hearing Xiao Wen's words, Guo Jia and Ma Chao were both stunned.
The former has doubts on his face, while the latter is full of fighting spirit.
After all, Xiao Wen had never mentioned before that players were gathering in large areas to prepare to enter the Qilian Mountains.
At that time, the main thing was that I still didn't know the movements of those guys.
Now that he knew their motives, Xiao Wen did not hide them and told them all.
After hearing this, the two people's faces showed clear expressions.
When Xiao Wen mobilized five thousand elite cavalry and asked for control of the Qilian Mountain military camp, they vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Now, I finally know the reason.
Without asking any questions, he immediately retreated, reorganized his armaments, and prepared for battle!
After the two people left, Xiao Wen was somewhat idle.
Days like this lasted until evening, when the scouts returned and sent back the news.
News about the players of Dongning Pavilion.
It was discovered that ten armies of unknown origin, ranging in size from 10,000 to 20,000 people, were heading towards the Qilian Mountains.
Although they come from different directions, without exception, their goal is the Qilian Mountains! The estimated time of arrival is two days away!
After all, most of those armies are infantry, and their speed is naturally not as fast as that of lightly armed scouts who are rushing to investigate.
When Xiao Wen received the news, Guo Si and Li Jue were stationed in a ravine dozens of miles away from the Qilian Mountains. They also received similar news.
Qilian Mountain?
The hussar general's target was the Qilian Mountains.
The target of these ten armies of unknown origin is also the Qilian Mountains.
Could it be that there are some ulterior secrets hidden in the Qilian Mountains?
correct!
A few days ago, I received a tip from the military camp saying that the wild beasts in the Qilian Mountains have gone crazy inexplicably in recent days and are more lethal than before. They have injured many soldiers in the military camp in the past few days.
However, the reason that makes the beast go crazy has not yet been found. Could it be that those guys came here for this?
Guo Si and Li Jue frowned, feeling vaguely that they had discovered something extremely important.
Perhaps, there is a big secret hidden in the Qilian Mountains!
"Lao Guo, what do you think about this matter?" Li Jue frowned and looked at Guo Si.
Guo Bang also frowned, and the jumping firelight reflected on his face, clearly revealing his sad look at the moment.
"Old Li, this matter has exceeded the limit of what you and I can control. We must inform the lord, please lord at most!"
"I feel that the water here is very deep!" Guo Bang said in a deep voice.
He is usually a man of few words. Although he is a martial artist, he is calmer than most martial artists and can see things more clearly than most martial artists!
"Really? Then tell the lord and ask the lord to make a decision!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two men didn't waste any time. They immediately wrote down the information on the letter paper, called the goshawk, tied the letter to the letter, and let the goshawk fly high into the sky towards Dong Zhuo.
"Let's talk about everything after the Lord replies."
As soon as the words fell, under the night, silence returned to the ravine.
Zhao Yun, on the other hand, took advantage of the darkness to enter the mountain and headed deep into the forest.
The Qilian Mountains are very quiet at night. Along the way, you can't even hear the chirping of insects and birds that are common in ordinary mountains and forests.
It's like, everything is silent and everything has fallen into a deep sleep.
Zhao Yun moved forward slowly, holding a silver gentian spear in his hand, his eyes full of fear.
This mountain forest is very dangerous!
This is what Qi Daniu told him.
Qi Daniu is one of the two generals left behind in this military camp. His strength has reached the fifth level, and he is Ma Teng's trusted subordinate.
In addition to him, there is also a fifth-grade warrior in the military camp.
However, that one took action in the ferocious beast riot not long ago, and was seriously injured in order to save his generals, and is still lying in the wounded barracks.
Being able to severely injure a fifth-grade general means that you should pay attention to how dangerous this ferocious beast in the mountains is.
Even Zhao Yun was on guard at the moment and moved forward slowly.
Suddenly, a wolf howl came from the silent mountain forest.
A low voice sounded in the night sky and echoed in the woods. In just a moment, dozens of green light spots appeared under the dark night.
Those are the eyes of a wolf!
There are wolves!
Zhao Yun was slightly startled and did not think about why there were wolves here, but the look in his eyes became fierce at this moment.
Without any hesitation, he immediately took action with the silver gentian gun in his hand. The gun shot out like a dragon, like a wild dragon out of the sea, killing the wolves.
For a moment, Zhao Yun was like a god of war. When he danced with the spear in his hand, he made a loud sound, and successive attacks fell. In just a few minutes, he saw the corpses of ferocious wolves on the ground in front of him.
Zhao Yun's expression remained calm, without any change.
Continuing to move forward, at this moment, he felt a bit like a slaughterer walking in and out of the mountains and forests.
Along the way, I found many crazy beasts, but they were all killed by Zhao Yun.
Although he is a fifth-level warrior, due to the blessing of fifth-level generals, his strength is not much weaker than some sixth-level beings.
Along the way, the cold breath surged like a tide, and the fighting spirit surged within his body without any cover. It just spread in the mountains and forests, scaring away many wild beasts that coveted him.
This can be accomplished simply by relying on momentum and the strength of a warrior.
This is his strength!
Until he walked to a small ravine deep in the mountains, he saw many wild animals drinking water from the ravine streams.
When these beasts drink water, the breath of the beasts becomes more violent and ferocious.
But what really concerned Zhao Yun was that he saw a person next to these beasts drinking water.
A man!
A Taoist priest!
Zuo Ci!
When Zhao Yun came here, Zuo Ci, who was sitting by the stream, looked back and his eyes fell on Zhao Yun, with a trace of surprise in his eyes.
Obviously he didn't expect to see a stranger here.
Zhao Yun looked stern, frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "Are you driving these crazy beasts?"
"If Pindao said it wasn't me, would you believe it?" Zuo Ci looked at Zhao Yun, the expression on his face was extremely calm, as if he was recounting an insignificant matter.
When these words came out of his mouth, Zhao Yun did not reply, but pointed his spear forward, pointing at Zuo Ci.
"Taoist Priest, the beasts rioting in the mountains and forests are causing great harm. Forgive me for not trusting Taoist Priest. I can only ask Taoist Priest to come back with me and explain it clearly in front of my lord!"
"Oh? Who is your master?" Zuo Ci raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Today's Hussars General!"
Zuo Ci understood and asked again: "What if I refuse?"
"I can only offend the Taoist priest!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Chao took a step forward, his eyes full of fierceness.
He didn't know if the Taoist priest in front of him was the instigator of all this.
But this Taoist priest's behavior was really suspicious.
After all, based on what he has seen so far, it is very possible that this Taoist priest can drive wild beasts.
He cannot let this Taoist priest go.
Hearing this, Zuo Ci chuckled lightly, stood up, and flicked his sleeves. The beasts around him immediately dispersed in fear.
"Let me see how powerful the Divine General of Destiny is!"
