C2264 Vanguard of the Northern Tribes
C2264 Vanguard of the Northern Tribes
"Shouldn't it be?" Dongfang Qingyu asked. He did not understand the situation in the Northern Tribes.
"According to our intel, the Northern Tribes' army should still be five to ten hours away from here." The girl said.
"You have intel?" Dongfang Qingyu looked at her.
"You have no information?" The girl also looked at her in surprise.
"No!" Dongfang Qingyu said very honestly.
"How dare you go so deep without any information? You are really bold." Judging from the girl's expression, she definitely wasn't praising him. She probably wanted to say that her brain had been squeezed by the door.
"That's what everyone does." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Our army is still at the back. A single horse running into the Northern Tribes army is courting death!" The girl said.
"In your opinion, ahead is the Northern Tribes' great army?" Dongfang Qingyu suspected that the Empire also had an army in the north. At least, they had the power to defend the border.
"Could there be eastern barbarians here?" The girl looked at him with disdain. "But, they shouldn't be eastern barbarians... Bah, the main force of the Northern Tribes should be the vanguard."
"Are there so many vanguards here?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"How many people can you see?" The girl looked at him in a new light.
"I can't tell!" Dongfang Qingyu shook his head honestly.
"At least you have good points." The girl said.
"Thank you!" Dongfang Qingyu accepted it.
"There should be around fifty thousand people. We can't beat them, so we can only escape." The girl said.
"What if we run away from these villagers?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"Hurry up and escape!" The girl shouted at the villagers.
The villagers seemed to have woken up from a dream. They hurriedly ran for their lives and rushed towards the village. After running for a few steps, they suddenly heard a sound. The village had been destroyed. They quickly changed direction and ran towards the Central Plains.
"Running away like this is not a solution." Dongfang Qingyu looked at the backs of the villagers and frowned. The vanguard of the Northern Tribes had horses. Could two legs outrun four legs?
"We'll stay behind to block it. If you don't want to, I won't blame you, and I won't tell anyone about you dumping food in the villagers' house." The girl said.
"Provoking me is useless," the girl said. Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Are you rejecting?" The girl revealed a disappointed expression. It didn't matter if it was the combat strength that Dongfang Qingyu had displayed, or the Evil Mirror Vajra that he had summoned. They were both very powerful. With Dongfang Qingyu's help, those villagers might have a chance of survival. If not, the villagers would undoubtedly die.
She knew very well that she alone could not stop the fifty thousand strong army, not even five hundred.
"On the contrary, I really want to test the taste of the Northern Tribes' army!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Do you usually speak so slowly?" The girl knew she had been tricked by Dongfang Qingyu.
"The Northern Tribes are not coming out. They should know that their reinforcements have arrived." Dongfang Qingyu looked at the village. There were about twenty to thirty Northern Army soldiers inside. If they were kept, it would be a huge disaster.
"It's too late!" The girl, Zou Mei, could already see the figure of the Northern Army's vanguard. According to their speed, they would be here in five minutes at most.
The two sides extended for over a thousand meters. It was unknown how long it was, but the black mass gave people an extremely strong shock. Regardless of whether it was a horse or a person, their auras were all extremely valiant. Dark clouds gathered in the air, and as the army ran, they changed. It was like a terrifying beast.
"It's enough." Dongfang Qingyu took out a few bags and threw them into the village. The things hit the wall and spilled out white powder.
"What is this?" The girl asked.
"Flint Powder!"
"This is good stuff!" The girl's beautiful eyes lit up.
"You shouldn't be in the Central Plains, right?" Dongfang Qingyu took out a fire piston, blew it, and threw it on the powder, instantly igniting the fire.
It did not need to be small or big. It directly turned into a raging flame. The temperature was so high that it could melt rocks. The houses in the village were mainly made of soil, and the wooden structure accounted for less than 10%. If there was no flintlock powder, unless you lit up the daily necessities inside... With Flint Powder, things would be different. Even wood and mud would be burned together.
The fire continued to spread from the place where the Flint Powder was. The Northern Tribes soldiers hiding in the houses screamed and ran out.
Whoosh -
Whoosh -
Whoosh -
...
The girl's crossbow arrow had long been prepared. She aimed at the vital points of the Northern Tribe soldiers and shot at them. She prepared to compare three crossbow arrow so that she could take turns shooting. The crossbow arrow's shooting speed was fast and its penetrating power was strong. The only drawback was that it was slow to load the arrow.
Dongfang Qingyu did not make a move. Instead, he summoned the red Bone Pet. The red Bone Pet was refined from the phoenix's true bone. It was not afraid of flames the most. Bei Rong Bing was afraid of flames and could not unleash his combat strength. The red Bone Pet's combat strength was enhanced in flames. The sword light flickered and killed the Northern Army soldiers one by one. Many of them did not even have the time to scream.
Very quickly, these Northern Army soldiers died cleanly.
"Why do you say that I am not from the Central Plains? Could it be that it's because I don't know you? " The girl's expression was full of provocation.
" I basically know the beautiful girl from the Central Plains. " Dongfang Qingyu looked into the girl's eyes very seriously. "You are so beautiful, but I have never seen you before. It only means one thing: you are not in the Central Plains."
"You must have lied to many girls by saying that, right?" The girl laughed.
"You are accusing me of this. You have never successfully lied to a girl." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Because beautiful girls like sincere people." The girl said.
"Just look at my profession and you'll know I'm a sincere person" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Where are we going?" The girl smiled and didn't respond. She found it strange that Dongfang Qingyu was heading southwest with the Mirror of Sins.
This was obviously not a good place to intercept.
The girl soon understood that Dongfang Qingyu was sprinkling fire stones on the ground. The fire stones were white, and the grass was yellow and white. The fire stones were not eye-catching when they were scattered on the ground.
The village was surrounded by reddish-brown soil. The white powder was too obvious when it landed on the ground. She was just about to ask what would happen if the vanguard of the Northern Tribes did not come over. She immediately shut her mouth again.
For the sake of the two of them, the Northern Tribes Vanguard Army should not make a big fuss. But with 2500 of them... The 2m Vile Mirror Vajra, the Northern Tribes Vanguard Army very naturally changed a bit of their angle. They pounced towards them. As for the villagers who ran until there was only a black dot left, the Northern Tribes Vanguard Army did not care at all.
As long as the Siberia horse was under them, there would be no enemies they could not catch up to on the grassland.
"Can you bury your stone bomb?" Facing the Northern Tribe vanguard army that was getting closer and closer, Dongfang Qingyu did not seem to care at all. At least on his face, there was not the slightest bit of nervousness.
"Mine is a bomb, not a mine." The girl said.
"Can you turn invisible?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"I am a thief!" The girl said.
"I suggest you go invisible now and ignite the fire when the time is right." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Can you handle it alone?" After the girl asked the question, she found it unnecessary. Without waiting for Dongfang Qingyu to reply, her figure faded and disappeared.
Thieves' stealth skills were not as good as assassins', but they could still avoid being discovered as long as they did not participate in the battle.
The Northern Tribes Vanguard Army was very different from the sentries in front of them who had not fallen. Their bodies were tall and big. However, with the addition of metal armor, although the coverage area was not much, however, the important parts were all blocked, and their defensive power greatly increased.
The horse hooves and the ground expanded, the wild grass instantly turned to dust, and the heavy force left a centimeter deep mark on the ground. As the horses trampled on the ground, the soil began to loosen. It began to fly, and after the center of the Northern Tribes vanguard army, it was basically covered in dust.
If they travelled like this for a long period of time, these people would definitely have lung disease.
The firing range of the sentries was 250 meters. The Northern Tribe Vanguard Army's shooting range was slightly closer, 230 meters. However, they had already started shooting at 280 meters.
The army had the advantage of having an army. They did not need to aim, and they could use their numbers to crush the enemy. 10,000 people fired at the same time, not once, but continuously. They shot 2-3 times per second, in the blink of an eye. The air between the vanguard of the Northern Tribes and the Vile Mirror Vajra was filled with arrows. It was densely packed.
Creak -
Creak -
Chi -
...
The sound of the air being torn apart was soul-stirring and intimidating. When the Northern Tribes vanguard army shot out the arrows, the Mirror of Sins also began to charge. But compared to the arrows, their speed seemed to be too slow. After only three steps, the arrows had already hit their bodies.
Gray light bloomed, and the two hundred or so Vile Mirror Guardians at the front were instantly killed. Then, there were two hundred more, and then two hundred more. As the distance closed, Warrior, who was at the back of the Northern Tribe Vanguard Army, entered the shooting range. He also joined in the shooting, and the death rate of the Mirror of Sins King Kong suddenly rose.
"Summon Mirror King Kong!"
"Summon Mirror of Sins King Kong!"
"Betrayal Mirror Diamond Summon!"
...
Dongfang Qingyu crazily called out, but he couldn't keep up with the speed of death. The number of Evil Mirror Vajra was getting lesser and lesser, and just as the number was dropping to three hundred... The hidden girl made her move. One point of Mars was so insignificant compared to the army of thousands of soldiers. But in the next second, the spark of fire turned into a prairie fire, burning the earth in an instant.
Nearly a third of the Northern Tribes' vanguard army was enveloped by the flame. The high temperature distorted the air, melted the armor, and melted the molten iron. Warrior was so hot that he let out a heart-wrenching scream. The Northern Tribes' vanguard army was instantly thrown into chaos.
"Mass Resurrection Arts!"
Dongfang Qingyu threw out a hill-like corpse and revived 10,000 monsters. Red Bone Pet, Nine Nether Grass, Star Eating Grass, and Kun Peng appeared and attacked at the same time.
A ripple swept past and the Northern Tribes vanguard army disappeared. Star Eating Grass attacked and another large Northern Tribes vanguard army disappeared. Kun Peng swallowed more than 3,000 Warrior in one breath and then began digesting with his stomach bulging.
The Ghost Hand Vine attacked from underground, appearing and disappearing unpredictably. Many Warrior died without even knowing how. The Northern Tribes vanguard army disappeared at an astonishing speed. Many people were still worried about the raging flames. They did not realize that many of their comrades had disappeared. The girl who had withdrawn from her invisible state grabbed the stone bomb and did not throw it out. She was stunned by the scene in front of her.
