Chapter 24: sudden crisis
Chapter 24: sudden crisis
Looking at the expressions of the three of them as if they were facing a great enemy, Lei Xiao's expression froze, and he immediately asked, "What's going on? Could it be that there are other strong men around the territory?"
"Lord Qi, to be precise, it's not a single person, but an entire army." Nan Xing's pretty face was full of grim looks, and his dark eyebrows frowned slightly.
"That's right, this aura is huge and messy. Although the strength of each individual is very limited, when they get together, they show a uniform coldness.
It can clearly make people feel that this is a force that cannot be ignored. According to my speculation, it should be a professional team that has experienced blood and fire. "
I saw the knotweed concentrating, and while sensing the danger of getting closer, he opened the mouth and said.
"How many people are there? Where did they come from?"
At this moment, Lei Xiao's heart began to thump, and the meat skewers in his hand instantly became unscented.
Facing this sudden life-and-death crisis, he saw his scalp tingling. He first signaled the three people in front of him not to let the other first-order subordinates notice for the time being, and then lowered his voice.
Undoubtedly, before things become clear, it is better not to cause large-scale panic in the territory for the time being.
"Lord Lord, the number of people is estimated to be between 2,000 and 3,000. Most of them are composed of first-order soldiers, and a small part are second-order soldiers, but it is not ruled out that there will be higher-level powerhouses.
As for the azimuth, it is the northeast direction. Currently, we are marching urgently towards us. "
He looked left and right to confirm that there were no other subordinates. After noticing the movement here, the knotweed looked serious and said again.
Undoubtedly, with the strength of his fifth-order powerhouse, even an army of such a level as a person can retreat completely, or simply kill the opponent and throw away his armor and armor.
However, the current situation is completely different.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the storm is treacherous, and our base camp is here.
If during the course of the battle, the other side sent a surprise army to take the opportunity to attack, the consequences would undoubtedly be unimaginable.
After all, there is only one day left for the protective cover. At that time, the entire territory will be completely exposed to the enemy.
As a fifth-order berserker, coupled with the fifth-order Dragon Slaying Sword rewarded by the Lord, if he is given a certain amount of time, it is not impossible to completely destroy this power.
But what if this is just the enemy's vanguard or decoy?
Before accepting the call, the knotweed, who had been in the army for a while, clearly understood.
War is different from a duel with someone, but requires thousands of well-organized and terrifying opponents to face at the same time.
A well-trained army with high morale can often exert its terrifying power several times, or even dozens of times, of individuals!
It can be seen from this that no matter how strong an individual is in the ten thousand army, it is only a chestnut in Taicang.
An experienced commander has too many means to disperse the enemy's combat power, and then attack Huanglong to break through the enemy's base camp in one fell swoop.
He was able to fight with his knotweed, but after all, there was only one person, fully protecting the lord from breaking through or other actions, and he was still able to do it with ease.
But once the enemy aggressively attacked the territory from all directions, the situation would be very critical.
"2000-3000 people, northeast direction..."
On the other side, Lei Xiao, who forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart and felt the hairs on his entire body stand up, became calm and tried his best to think calmly.
According to the information obtained before, the northern part of the territory is an endless mountain range.
The two human kingdoms closest to the territory are not in that direction.
Then, here comes the problem.
Where did this sudden power come from?
The most important thing is that he only has two days to travel here.
The location of the territory has never been revealed.
How could it be possible to attract such a large number of enemies?
Furthermore, lets take a step back.
Even in the daytime, when encountering Kumbu, the location of the territory was accidentally revealed.
But the merchant and the mercenary have already left by boat from the west, and this position is not right at all...
To sum up, from the analysis of the current intelligence, there is obviously only one possibility left.
"Could it be that... the other party's goal is not actually my territory?"
Realizing this, Lei Xiao, who was a little more at ease, began to think about it.
"So, what else is there in this forest that can attract the other party's rush to march here in the middle of the night?"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao was startled, and then he had an answer in his heart.
"Lord Lord, what should we do next?"
On the other side, feeling the breath of the other party getting closer and closer, Nan Xing's delicate little face was almost completely covered with anxiety, and Nan Yue on the side showed the same expression.
I saw two pairs of identical Qiushui eyes, facing each other, and both saw obvious uneasiness in each other's eyes.
"Don't worry, if I expected it well, the other party's goal is not actually us."
One by one, he patted Nanxing Nanyue's ~ Signaling the two daughters not to be nervous, Lei Xiao smiled and said.
"Lord Lord, do you mean that the other party has other plans?" On the other side, looking at Lei Xiao with a calm expression, Hu Zhang couldn't help but wonder.
"exactly."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao took a bite of the meat skewer that was already chilling in his hand, and answered confidently, "I think, since it is an urgent march, then the other party should change their route soon."
Sure enough, it wasn't until Lei Xiao finished the big string in his hand.
Almost at the same time, Hu Zhang and Nanxing Nanyue felt the army and did not continue to approach the direction of the territory, but turned their heads and started heading south.
Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, especially the knotweed, looking at Lei Xiao with an irresistible look of reverence.
Undoubtedly, if in a battlefield where corpses are scattered everywhere, the only individual who can decide the outcome of the entire battle is the army commander who is above all armies!
An excellent commander, even if the army is overwhelmed and faced with the turbulent waves, he can be fearless in the face of danger.
And from what happened just now, it can be clearly seen that the lord in front of him undoubtedly already possesses such characteristics!
Thinking of this, Kuzhang's heart couldn't help but start to surging.
It seems that it is really my luck to be able to sign a contract with such a lord, and it is also the most correct choice I have made in my life!
