Douluo: Strange Fire Martial Spirit, starting with a hundred thousand year soul ring - Chapter 419
c418 Food and grass were robbed
“Why did the teacher ask us to sneak attack the rear of the Xingluo Empire’s army? With our strength, we can completely defeat the Tiandou Empire’s army head-on.” Tianyue rubbed her fist, her face somewhat dissatisfied.
With the blessing of the God’s Test, the three of them have become Titled Douluo. With such strength, it is like no one in the front battlefield, and it is as easy as drinking water to shuttle among the 100,000 troops.
Sneak attack behind the enemy, this is how to kill a few enemies.
Dugu Yan looked at her helplessly. Since her strength has increased, Tianyue has always wanted to find someone to fight. For this reason, she and Zhu Zhuqing have been dragged by the other party to spar.
But when sparring, they can’t use their full strength, and it’s so boring to fight. Tianyue quickly turned her attention to the Haotian Sect.
If it weren’t for the golden crocodile stopping her, she probably would have reached the top of the Haotian Sect this time.
Zhu Zhuqing explained: “Killing is not the teacher’s intention. These soldiers were bewitched by Dai Mubai and became invaders. Except for some bloodthirsty people, most soldiers are not bad by nature.”
Most soldiers were either drafted or their families were exploited too much by the nobles and could no longer survive. Joining the army, at least every meal can be full.
Of course, some people exposed their true nature in the army and began to slaughter civilians.
What they need to do is to kill these pests and slow down the pace of the Xingluo Empire’s attack.
Dugu Yan added: “Tianyue, you are from the Spirit Hall. At present, the Spirit Hall has not joined the battlefield. If you wantonly slaughter the soldiers of the Xingluo Empire, you will definitely get into trouble.”
“And the teacher said that the Xingluo Empire has the support of the Haotian Sect and the Lake Heart Island, and it is not ruled out that there may be a limit Douluo participating in the war. Although we have some strength now, we will not be opponents facing the limit Douluo.”
Of course, this is only a short-term defeat. Wait until they complete the nine tests and become gods. Then, in their eyes, the limit Douluo will be stronger than ordinary people.
Tianyue curled her lips in dismay. She just wanted to rush into the Xingluo Palace and tear Dai Mubai apart.
“Be alert. We are getting closer and closer to the Xingluo Empire’s army according to intelligence. And the teacher said that in the battle of Chuyun City, the Xingluo Empire is likely to send nearly 100,000 troops.” Zhu Zhuqing reminded.
“That’s perfect. See how I tear them apart!” Tianyue’s eyes lit up and she was about to rush forward with her fists.
Dugu Yan had no choice but to hold her back. “Don’t mess around. We don’t need to help the Tiandou Empire defend the city. Just cut off their logistical supplies and let them waste time in vain.”
Tianyue was unhappy, but she had to hold back her temper.
Repelling the Xingluo Empire’s army now would only affect Han Yu’s plan, which would not be worth the loss.
Not long after, they arrived near Chuyun City. Looking around, Chuyun City had already been under martial law, and the city was surrounded by the Xingluo Empire’s army.
“Do they want to besiege Izumo City and force them to surrender?” Looking at the strategic deployment of the Xingluo Empire, Tianyue could easily guess.
Zhu Zhuqing said: “After all, the Xingluo Empire’s army is outside the city, and they can get a steady supply from the rear. But Izumo City can’t do that. Once the food in the city is exhausted, the city will fall without attack. Tianyue, as long as we can disrupt the logistics supply of the Xingluo Empire, we can greatly slow down their offensive pace.”
After all, the army sent by the Xingluo Empire cannot fight with food and grass.
This is why they can’t directly cross Izumo City.
If they don’t consider food and grass, they can completely bypass Izumo City and all the cities in the rear and go straight to Jialing Pass. But the war can’t be fought like this. Going deep into the enemy’s rear, it’s easy to be surrounded. Not to mention, it’s impossible for our own supplies to cross these cities and be delivered to the frontline soldiers.
In these cities captured by the Xingluo Empire, many soldiers and horses will be left to guard the city to consolidate the logistics transportation routes in the rear.
“Then why don’t we go to their rear and harass the cities they occupy directly?” Tianyue suddenly had an idea.
Zhu Zhuqing looked helpless, “You can think of these, but the teacher can’t think of them? Can the generals of the Xingluo Empire not think of them? In normal wars, the front line will not be completely elite forces. The strong men in the Xingluo Empire army, as well as more elite forces, must still be in the cities on the supply line.”
“If the three of us rush over, it’s almost like sending ourselves to die.”
Zhu Zhuqing was born in the Zhu family after all, and she knew a little about military affairs.
Tianyue shrugged and closed her mouth in dismay.
Their primary target was not the soldiers attacking the city on the front line, but the convoys transporting food and grass in the rear.
After finding out the logistics supply route of the Xingluo army, Tianyue and the other two quickly rushed to the rear of the Xingluo army.
“Hehe, let them see how powerful I am!”
The logistics supply line of the entire army only had a thousand soldiers arranged by Ge Hang. However, the one who led these troops was Feng Xiaotian.
Tianyue suddenly charged into the army, with a powerful soul pressure that was not concealed. Although she did not reveal her soul ring, she could kill several of these ordinary people with one claw.
Zhu Zhuqing and Duguyan also charged into the army, their first goal was to kill the enemy general.
When Feng Xiaotian walked out of the tent, he ran into them.
“Xiaotian?” Zhu Zhuqing and the others quickly stopped.
Feng Xiaotian saw that no one noticed them, so he quickly pulled the two people into the tent.
“Why are you here?” Feng Xiaotian asked quickly.
Dugu Yan said angrily: “We still want to ask you, how did you become the general of the Star Luo Empire? Isn’t this helping the evil?”
Feng Xiaotian didn’t want to do this, but in order to find out the power of the island in the middle of the lake, he could only stay here.
After some explanations, Zhu Zhuqing and the others finally understood.
“What should we do now? We can’t really fight Xiaotian to the death.” Dugu Yan spread his hands and was not optimistic about this idea.
Feng Xiaotian didn’t care, “It’s okay. As long as I don’t show up, the people outside will lose their command and sooner or later they will be killed by Tian Yue and be defeated.”
“However, don’t steal food and grass from me. Follow the road south, and you should see a convoy transporting food and grass. The rear has been captured by the Star Luo Empire, and they are progressing too smoothly these days. The food and grass are not protected, so you can take this opportunity to steal the food and grass. ”
After a pause, Feng Xiaotian thought of a good idea, “Since we want to delay the Xingluo army, you might as well send the food and grass to Izumo City. If the soul guides are not enough, I can give mine to you.”
With that said, he took off the soul guidance necklace around his neck.
Zhu Zhuqing smiled lightly, “We really want to go together. However, the teacher prepared a lot of soul tools for me before leaving. The total space is two thousand cubic meters, which is enough.”
Only then did Feng Xiaotian notice that Zhu Zhuqing had more than twenty soul bracelets on one of his arms, which together looked like an arm guard.
“You guys go quickly, I will pretend to be defeated later and go to the front to ask for help. Especially Zhuqing, there are people from the Zhu family in the army, don’t let them find you.” Feng Xiaotian reminded.
The two nodded in agreement.
Soon, they overturned the tent they were in, and Feng Xiaotian was thrown out casually by them. After all, Feng Xiaotian’s disguised identity is just an ordinary person with some supernatural powers. Facing a soul master’s attack, it’s normal to be thrown away.
As for the front, Tianyue had already killed these soldiers, throwing off their armor and fleeing in all directions.
“Your general has been killed by us. If you don’t want to die, get out!” Dugu Yan said loudly.
These soldiers had already lost their fighting spirit. After being told this, they even ran away desperately.
Tianyue found them, curled her lips and said, “These guys are too inexperienced, they ran away after just a few hits. By the way, I seemed to have seen Feng Xiaotian just now, was it an illusion?”
“It’s not an illusion, he was the one we threw out just now!” Zhu Zhuqing said.
After some explanations from the two of them, Tianyue finally understood the reason.
“Why don’t teachers let us join the army? It would be quite interesting to lead troops to fight!”
Hearing this, Dugu Yan’s eyelids jumped.
Except for the existence of female soul masters in the soul master legion, there will be no women in the normal army. Even if there were, they were taken as condolences.
“Don’t stay here too long. Let’s follow Xiaotian’s instructions and hijack the grain truck!”
…
At this moment, Ge Hang was leading his soldiers to attack the city without noticing anything strange behind them.
It wasn’t until Feng Xiaotian rushed into the camp with the few remaining soldiers that Ge Hang realized that the logistics had been cut off.
“What’s going on!” Ge Hang’s expression turned extremely ugly.
Without logistical supplies, the rations carried by these soldiers could only last for five days at most.
After five days, wouldn’t they have to drink from the northwest wind? Moreover, soldiers who are not well fed have no combat effectiveness.
Feng Xiaotian immediately put his acting skills into action, “General, this subordinate deserves death. Those soul saints rushed into our military formation, and we had no power to resist. That’s why…”
“Soul Saint!” Ge Hang’s expression froze.
The generals leading the troops are only at the Soul Saint level. Where did the enemy get the three soul saints?
However, after hearing Feng Xiaotian’s report, he finally understood what was going on. These three soul saints were clearly the team sent by the Tiandou Empire to delay their attack.
Feng Xiaotian took the opportunity to suggest: “General, please write to Your Majesty to ask the soul master army to assist us in the battle. Even if they do not go to the front line, they must protect our food and grass supplies from threats.”
If he could take the opportunity to lure out the soul master legion from Lake Center Island, it would not be in vain for the good opportunity Zhu Zhuqing and the others created for him.
“This.” Ge Hang hesitated.
The army of soul masters came to their aid, so their battle would certainly be easy to fight. But if he writes the letter, wouldn’t it prove that he is extremely incompetent?
When the time comes, regardless of whether the soul master army will be sent out, he will definitely be removed from his position as general.
“General, why don’t you retreat first? Without the food and grass supplies, the city will definitely not be able to be conquered. Once the food and grass supplies catch up, it won’t be too late for us to attack again.” Xiao Se quickly came up with an idea.
Anyone who knows something about military affairs knows that it is impossible to fight a war without food and grass. Ge Hang must not agree with this matter. The morale of the army will definitely be unstable before they can wait for food and fodder.
“Pass my order and the army retreats ten miles. In addition, Xiao Se, go to the rear in person and report to the general that the Tiandou Empire has sent a small group of guerrillas to pose a threat to our food and grass transportation. Ask them to send more security personnel.”
As soon as he heard that he had been transferred from the front line, Xiao Se didn’t care so much. He got on his horse and ran towards the rear.
Originally, Ge Hang’s army had prepared all siege equipment. Even if he fails to attack this time, he will still affect the morale of the defenders. But now, they have to call it quits.
The other seven armies attacking from different directions had no choice but to retreat when they saw Ge Hang’s actions.
After all, it is difficult to pose a threat to the defense of Chuyun City when people are not united.
…
On the other side, Zhu Zhuqing and the other two followed Feng Xiaotian’s instructions and soon ran into the grain transport convoy of the Xingluo Empire.
As Feng Xiaotian said, there were not many soldiers defending the grain transport convoy of the Xingluo Empire.
After all, in the previous battles, no one from the Tiandou Empire had ever sneaked into the rear to affect the grain transport convoy. And the general of the front-line army, the second elder of the Haotian Sect, did not have much military ability.
Since he had no intention of taking the grain, he naturally sent more soldiers to the front.
The three Titled Douluo attacked at the same time, and the transport team of less than a hundred people was quickly wiped out by them.
Of course, this was just the beginning. The teams formed by the Wuhun Hall and the Tiandou Empire have all set off and will soon arrive at the front.
Zhu Zhuqing and the other two quickly put the food into the soul guide.
With the three of them behind them, even if they entered the heavily guarded Chuyun City, they would not be noticed.
At night, the two generals defending the city of Izumo were sitting in the military tent, feeling very distressed.
“Your Majesty doesn’t care whether we fail or not, but if we can’t hold out for even a month, even if most of the troops are withdrawn, Your Majesty probably won’t care about us.” General Chen Li looked worried.
The City Lord Ouyang Jia beside him was also helpless, “General Chen, the food in the city can only support half a month at most. After ten days, we have to retreat anyway.”
The Xingluo Empire army was originally going to attack the city today, but they suddenly withdrew, which made the two generals very distressed.
If the Xingluo army completely surrounded Izumo City, they would not only be besieged, but even difficult to break through.
Xue Qinghe allowed them to abandon the city and retreat, after all, the people in the city had already been evacuated.
But Xue Qinghe did not allow them to become surrendered generals.
Once they surrendered, even if they were rescued later, their careers would probably be over. They might even be accused of collaborating with the enemy.
Just when the two were looking melancholy, a soldier suddenly ran over excitedly to report, “Report to the general and the city lord, a large amount of food has appeared in the city for no reason, enough for us to eat for more than a month.”
The food transported by the Xingluo Empire is enough for 80,000 troops to eat for half a month, and they only have 30,000 people, so they can naturally eat for longer.
The steady Chen Li asked with a puzzled look: “Could it be that the Xingluo Empire deliberately sent poisonous food?”
The soldier explained: “General, we have checked everything, and the food is not poisonous.”
“What!” Ouyang Jia and Chen Li were horrified.
Could it be that this is a gift from nature? (End of this chapter)
