Chapter 1012: The Mysterious Messenger

Shanhai City, Summer Palace.

In the imperial study, Ouyang Shuo put down the information that Shanhaiwei had just submitted, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, as Mr. expected, [Yanhuang League] is desperate. ”

Zhang Liang on the other side listened to this, his expression was calm, as the top strategist, planning the future for Great Xia, removing the fog for the king, and guiding the maze, it was his business.

Ouyang Shuo didn't mind, obviously accustomed to Zhang Liang's coldness, and said lightly: "Since things are developing according to Mr. expectations, then the plan we prepared should also start on time." ”

"Understood!"

Zhang Liang nodded, and a glimmer of light finally flashed in his eyes, obviously this plan was very interesting.

Just when the outside world was speculating about how Daxia would react, the envoys of Honglu Temple had quietly rushed to Xianyang and Chang'an to launch a secret diplomatic operation.

************

Annam, Haiyun Mountain.

As a mountain range separating the north and south of Annam, there is only one ancient road between the south and the north.

The trail stretches for thousands of miles between the mountains and is flanked by sheer cliffs that are so barren that even the mountain's nimble monkeys can't climb it.

Legend has it that the mountain god of Haeun Mountain lives on the cliff, but no one has ever climbed to the top. The steep mountain peak is more than 400 meters high, not to mention ordinary people, even the masters in the game can't climb it.

On this morning, Annam's 500,000 Inhuman troops did not hesitate and went directly into the mountains.

Although this is a first-class ambush according to the art of war, the cliff is so steep that no one would think that anyone can set up an ambush on the top of the mountain.

The vast army marched between the mountains and mountains, although the queue was not very neat, and the equipment was varied, some on foot, some on horseback, and some on all kinds of wild beasts.

The stretchable army is still intimidating.

These players are all excited, with a strong ambition to serve the country in the face of national disasters, and an indescribable spirit.

They already knew the news of the fall of Da Nang City, but they were not afraid at all.

"What about Great Xia, is it a man-eating tiger, a field army dares to defend Da Nang City, it's really arrogant, look at how we clean them up." Someone said.

There are countless followers.

It's not the beginning of the game anymore, it's been five years since Gaia, and the average combat power of adventurers has exceeded the level of elite soldiers, which is on par with the elite soldiers of a hundred battles.

The master of the adventure player can compete with the king-level generals.

500,000 elite soldiers, it's terrifying to think about, even if they don't have too strong discipline, and their combat quality is poor, but so what, in the face of absolute power, all skills are floating clouds.

Therefore, when they learned that Daxia "the drunkard does not mean to drink" and really wants to provoke a national war, the indignation of Annan players can be understood.

1.6 million combat professional gamers are where all their confidence lies. Even the dragon that crossed the river in Daxia had to be obediently coiled when it reached the border of Annan, and it was never allowed to be arrogant and domineering in Annan.

"Brothers, hurry up and try to spend the night in Da Nang City before dark." The leader of the [Falcon Regiment] gave the guild brothers a fight, and it seems that Da Nang City has been regarded as a treasure in his pocket.

"Don't worry, boss, our [Falcon Regiment] must be the first guild to enter Da Nang City."

There is competition between guilds, and being the first to enter the city is undoubtedly a great honor that is worth fighting for by these players.

Driven by this, the army marched at a vain pace.

It was not only the Falcon Regiment that coveted this honor, a spectacle appeared among the mountains, and the army of 500,000 was like a giant dragon, speeding through the mountains, and thick smoke was billowing out.

By noon, 500,000 troops had entered the mountain pass.

This seems to be a signal.

Just as the army was speeding up, almost at the same time, the mountain road ended at one end and the other, and there was a deafening explosion, "Boom~~~"

The explosion was so loud that the whole ground shook, and countless pebbles were like boiling water droplets, churning up and down incessantly.

"What's going on, is there an earthquake?"

This is the player's knee-jerk reaction, so powerful that only an earthquake can describe it.

"What a bad luck!"

"Speed up and get out of the mountain road as soon as possible before there are aftershocks!" The leaders didn't dare to slack off, faintly felt a little bad, and subconsciously wanted to escape from the mountain road.

Until this time, the aftermath of the explosion was still stirring in the mountains, making people's scalps tingle.

When they reached the exit of the mountain road, they were completely shocked by the scene in front of them, only to see that the originally spacious mountain road was completely blocked by a rock, and it became a dead end.

"So, wasn't it an earthquake at all?"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what kind of earthquake this is, it is clear that the cliffs on both sides were forcibly blasted and collapsed, and then a pile of rocks three or four hundred meters high was built.

"Hit the mark!"

At this moment, the mutation was born again, and hundreds of huge haystacks rolled down from the mountaintops on both sides, each the size of a millstone, billowing smoke, all the way to the mountain road.

"There is an ambush, retreat!"

The clever man had already reacted and hurriedly turned around and ran back.

The slow reaction immediately "set himself on fire" and let out a terrible scream, even if the player has a skill, it is not copper and iron bones, and it is still a dead word under the flames.

Seeing this, the team was completely disorganized.

People pushed people, people squeezed people, and ran back desperately.

In fact, the haystacks that rolled down from the top of the hill were not enough to pose a mortal threat to the army, and only a handful of players were killed by the fire, and what was even more terrifying was that the haystack was doused with something, and it kept emitting black smoke, and once it was inhaled, it immediately fell to the ground.

"It's poisonous smoke!"

Annan players really can't imagine that the enemy is so vicious. Chased by the poisonous smoke, the player fled faster, one by one in a terrible way, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he finally got rid of the smoke.

But before they could recover their senses, the player who ran at the front actually ran back.

"What's going on?"

"The mountain road behind is also blocked, and there is also poisonous smoke."

“……”

The faces of the players suddenly turned pale, and the six gods were ownerless.

"The enemy is too vicious, what should I do now?"

"Don't panic, everyone." The leaders were the first to calm down and analyzed: "Although I don't know how the enemy climbed to the top of the mountain, it is estimated from the number of haystacks that rolled down that the enemy on the top of the mountain definitely did not exceed a hundred. ”

This person speculated that eight to nine would not be far from ten.

The Great Xia warriors on the top of the mountain were naturally sent up by mimic aircraft, but because of the urgency of time, the carrying capacity of the mimic aircraft was very limited, and they could only send more than 200 people.

Their main job was to plant explosives on the cliffs on both sides, and detonate them as soon as the enemy entered the hub, blocking the 500,000-strong army in the mountain road.

As for how to exterminate these 500,000 people, it is a big question.

"So?" Some people are puzzled.

"There are few people on the top of the mountain, and the poisonous smoke is naturally not unlimited, so it won't make us die like this." The head of the group analyzed, "The most important thing now is to maintain order and not to mess with ourselves. ”

Whoever said that, but under the threat of poisonous smoke, a few people could keep their composure.

The leaders could only make up their minds to set up a cordon on both sides, and the members outside the cordon unfortunately became victims of poisonous smoke, and even if they wanted to cross the line, they would be killed by their own people.

The infighting lasted until the evening, when it came to an end.

The originally ambitious southern expedition became sluggish, and in just one day, more than 40,000 people were reduced, and a small half of them died at the hands of their own people.

The survivors weren't in a good mood either.

They are trapped in the mountain road, which is precisely to make the heavens and the earth not spiritual. If you want to forcibly break the pile of rocks, it is filled with poisonous smoke, so you don't dare to approach it at all.

Despair spread through the ranks.

It seems that the fate that awaits them can only be trapped in the valley, and at the time of the national war, the adventurer will not be able to open the storage bag, not even land on the forum.

Even if they are not killed by the enemy, they will be starved to death after a long time.

Unlike the regular army, adventurers have no concept of food and grass at all, except for a little dry food they carry with them, and only replenish them in the cities along the way.

Now that I'm trapped, the food on my body can only last for two days at most. Two days later, hunger will spread among the ranks, and I don't know what human tragedy will cause.

The only good thing is that the war dead will appear in the Reincarnation Hall of the Royal City to pass on what happened in the valley, and the survivors can only hope for the rescue of their compatriots.

It was a particularly difficult night for the survivors.

There is not only the frustration of dying before leaving the school, but also the worry about the future and fate, worrying about whether the compatriots will rush to the rescue, worrying about the fate of the country, and worrying about the old and young wives and children.

This night, no one is destined to sleep.

************

Wangcheng Hanoi.

The news that 500,000 troops were trapped in Haiyun Mountain Road was tantamount to a ten-magnitude earthquake, which completely shook the entire player circle and caused a large tsunami.

Players aren't alone, they have their families, friends, and guilds in Hanoi. There was an appeal to immediately organize a rescue force to rescue compatriots.

"They're just trapped in the mountains, just throw the rocks out of the way."

It's really not that hard.

The question is, who can guarantee that Great Xia will not have a follow-up move?!

Even the thing of closing the mountain and releasing poisonous smoke has been done, what else can't be done in Great Xia?!

They no longer dare to be arrogant.

But I can't help it, I have to cut off the love of the robe, the national war has been fought so far, Daxia has not lost a single hair, Annan is already injured, and the 500,000 army is a new force.

If you don't rescue it, the rest of the matter will be even more difficult.

Soon, Annan players reached a consensus that no matter whether Daxia has a backup move or not, the rescue must be saved, and it must be fast, everyone knows in their hearts that the trapped players will not last for a few days.

Now the question is, how many people will be dispatched to save it?

If you go less, you don't have to do anything, and if you go more, you're afraid of any more accidents.

For this matter, the players of Wangcheng are making a lot of trouble, and before the Great Xia army reaches Hanoi, they themselves are already in chaos.
