806 Life and death are used for life and death on the front line, and the plague in the rear is cut off
(806 Life and death on the front line, and the plague in the rear will cut off the way back)
These people are all in the same heart. Their mortal bodies are not much stronger than mortals now. The temperature outside the array can be described as dripping into ice, and when they put it on the wooden kite and blow it, they will die directly.
They all thought to themselves, could these Xuantie guards deliberately wait until they only had their last breath left, and if the other party intended to do so, then it would be useless to think of any other way on their own.
With a horizontal heart, they successively pulled off the "Fire Molten Gold Body" on the token and swallowed it into their stomachs. The only way this thing can be activated is by swallowing.
Half an hour later, the five monks finally came to a warm place. They didn't expect that what they passed by was actually a huge flying boat, and it was quite luxuriously decorated, and it was not an ordinary war boat at first glance.
Although it was extremely cold outside, it was warm as spring on the flying boat. The ship has been specially modified with a number of hot copper pipes installed everywhere to transmit heat to the various cabins. The master cabin is covered with a thick carpet of white bear fur.
This, of course, costs more money. Not to mention the large amount of pure yang pills that are consumed to maintain the heating, just the bear skins on the floor in this room are not known how many white bears' fur will be pieced together.
But this is the characteristic of the Hao family. No matter where you are, you should enjoy a refined life in any environment. This kind of enjoyment itself is secondary, and more importantly, without these, it is impossible to show the special status of the family.
The owner of the flying boat is none other than the great prince Haotong. He sat in front of the desk, staring intently at the phantom coming from the jade slip. One of the scribe-like men said to him:
"Your Highness, those five Xianxuan have all signed the secret guard deed. ”
The Dark Guard Deed is a kind of document of the Xuan Tie Guard, and you can sign your name. This thing doesn't have a restraining effect on the divine consciousness like the Xuanxue Pact. But after signing the secret guard deed, he became a "dark guard" of Xuan Tiewei.
The so-called secret guard is a person who does not obey the orders of the Xuantiewei Yamen on the surface, but secretly receives the Xuantiewei's salary and rewards and does things for the Xuantiewei.
became a "dark guard", and naturally he had to secretly obey the orders of the Xuan Tie Guard. If he refuses to accept the order, Fu Zhensi can take out this deed to punish him directly. Unless the emperor issued a holy decree, no one could protect him.
These Xianxuan's physical bodies have been fused with the "Fire Molten Gold Body", and they are completely under the control of Haotong himself. With a little warning and persuasion, they will naturally obediently sign the contract to become secret guards.
This great prince came to the north of Xinjiang in order to pocket these idle people.
But things didn't go as smoothly as he expected. Although they fought hard all the way, there were not many idle mysteries who were in a desperate situation and activated the fire molten gold body, and so far there were only about a hundred people.
There were five more, and Haotong nodded in approval. The scene disappeared and was replaced by Song Ruqing and a Xijia man in a hooded black robe.
They first laid out a formation in the room, and then a gray-clothed servant took a jade box with an extremely complex structure, blue and white, from the hands of the Sija people.
Walked into the formation and put the jade box on the table.
There was already an ordinary copper box on the desk, and when it was opened, there were several pills inside.
When the jade box was opened, there was a small crystal bottle with a pale cyan liquid in it. The Grey Servant carefully took out the crystal bottle and dripped the liquid onto the elixir in the copper box.
When all this was done, he sealed the two boxes as they were. But he didn't immediately walk out of the formation, but looked back at Song Ruqing, waiting for the next order.
Song Ruqing held the formation pivot in his hand, and as soon as he thought into it, a red flame light came from the surface, and a fire ignited in the formation. But the flames were completely under control.
After the flames burned, the jade and copper boxes were still there, but the gray-clothed servant and the wooden case were burned into a pile of ashes.
This gray-clothed servant was originally a puppet controlled by Song Ruqing, so even if he was burned by fire, he didn't show anything out of the ordinary, and was obediently burned to ashes.
Immediately, another gray-clothed servant entered, and after cleaning the ashes from the ground, he picked up the jade box that had been burned by the fire and returned it to the black-robed Xija, while he himself picked up the copper box and left.
The eldest prince doesn't do everything, but he is used to watching everything from behind the scenes. The more the person who really does things lets him see more details, the more reassuring he becomes.
For example, the blue and white jade box contained the "source of the epidemic" from the Xijia people, and he had to be careful enough not to let the source of the epidemic contaminate his ship.
These contaminated elixirs will be distributed as necessary supplies to the newly recruited secret guards. Then the new Dark Guards will soon return to the Cloud King's camp.
These "plagues" cause terrible plagues, but are ineffective against monks who have fused with molten gold bodies.
Although it was ineffective, if these secret guards took the elixir, they would still carry the plague miasma on their bodies and spread it to others silently.
For ordinary monks, because their own qi and blood are strong enough, they will be in bed for a few days after being infected, and if they can recuperate, they will still be able to recover after all.
The unfortunate ones will be the vast majority of the mortals in the Cloud King's army. Contracting this disease is basically a certain death.
The five monks carrying these elixirs would be sent back to the nearest camp by them. As for when they will take these pills, that will be a matter for later.
It won't be long before a plague spreads silently through the camp, and initially all of them will not have any symptoms.
The camps along the way of Yunwang are constantly being transported back and forth by military supplies, and mutual infection is almost inevitable.
According to his estimates, after a maximum of half a month, the entire supply line will completely collapse. This period of time is just what King Yun needs to erect the Zhenyuan Tower.
Although the monks will not die of disease, they will also be in a great crisis without the supply lines that mortals rely on. When the time comes, more people will swallow the molten gold body of fire to save their lives.
This in itself is actually quite strange.
As the second prince of the Houtu Dynasty, King Yun obeyed the orders of the Privy Council, and led the army and a group of idle Xuan to desperately stop the Cold Dust Witch in front.
And as the eldest prince of the Houtu Dynasty and the first heir to the throne, he directly obeyed the emperor's orders, but he destroyed the supply line of the Cloud King behind his back, and instead helped the rise of the Cold Dust Witch.
The key reason for this is that the goals of the Privy Council formed by Emperor Kun Yuan himself and those old Confucian scholars are not always the same.
Confucian scholars always take the peace of the world as their own responsibility. Once something might trigger a war that would affect the entire Houtu Dynasty, they would always try desperately to stop it. This is exactly how they are approaching the matter in northern Xinjiang.
Emperor Kun Yuan certainly wanted to be consistent with them on the surface, but the idea behind it could only be realized by him, a trustworthy prince, and the Xuantiewei under his control.
What he wants to do is to let King Yun, a god with an invincible myth, fall into ruin in the northern frontier, and most of the idle Xuan will be under the command of Xuan Tiewei, and at the same time take advantage of the situation to take back the right to rule the two states of Jin and Yu.
In this way, the wishing power gathered in the piece of Hun Yuan Origin Jade in Emperor Kun Yuan's hand will be greatly enhanced!
After the rise of the dust tribe, it is bound to go south to seize Guizhou. Such a big war will not only not lead to the dispersion of people's hearts, but when the entire dynasty enters the war, everything is based on war, and the emperor can unite people's hearts even more.
As for whether the shrine maiden will capture Houtu City? That is absolutely impossible! With the strength of the Houtu Dynasty to unify the eight states, and the battlefield is in Middle-earth, they have the advantage of the home field, and the dust people have no chance at all.
There is no need to go on an expedition, but to lure the enemy into the depths, annihilate the main force of the dust people directly in Guizhou, and then go north to rule the entire northern frontier, which is the perfect strategy of Emperor Kunyuan.
At that time, the Temple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Hao family will also be erected in Northern Xinjiang, and all the beliefs of foreign gods in Northern Xinjiang will be uprooted, and the wish power of the Hunyuan Shiyu in the hands of Emperor Kunyuan can go further, and even close to consummation.
Obviously, the losses from such a war are enormous. The main battlefield was in Guizhou, which was densely populated and agriculture flourished, and after the war, I was afraid that I would starve to death and lay red land for thousands of miles. But what does it matter?
As long as the people's hearts are united and their will is gathered, what does it matter if the city is destroyed and the farmland is destroyed? Those prosperity are superficial things, and sooner or later they can be rebuilt.
But there is the most important point here, that is, the things he commanded Xuan Tiewei to do secretly would never leak out of the news, and even have anything to do with Emperor Kunyuan.
Once the reputation is corrupted and the hearts of the people are scattered, then everything has no meaning.
Therefore, he must not contact the Sija people to buy the "source of the epidemic" himself, nor can he use the Xuantiewei to do this. It would be good if everything was done by the Song family and the Chamber of Commerce of the Xijia people who had a close relationship with the Song family.
Even if someone really finds the handle in the future, this handle is also on the Song family.
The story is that the unwitting Xuan Tiewei bought the contaminated pill from the Song family, and the pill was distributed to the dark guard in the Xuan Tiewei.
Who knew that these profiteers who resold arms colluded with the Sija and the Chens for the sake of business, spread the plague behind their backs, and even lured the Kou into the city?
After a while, the hatch was pushed open with a creak, and Song Ruqing walked in with a smile, bowed to Haotong, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, everything is done." ”
