the road to becoming a god

Section 79

Perhaps indignant at Qiu Jiu's indifferent tone, a trace of coldness flashed in Zhuque's eyes and asked, "Why?"

Qiu Jiu said, "If you have time to hurt the deceased, it's better to try your best to help those who are still alive. The First Army of the Iron Family is retreating to Yanguan City, thinking that there will be no more attacks on the barbarians in the near future. However, the other four legions are still attacking on all sides to hunt down the barbarians. The white-striped tiger clan and the scaled snake clan are the largest existing tribes in the wilderness. It is a matter of course that they have become targets. Why don't we help those smaller tribes? Can only a populous tribe be regarded as a wild and orthodox descendant and be qualified for us to save it?

The rosefinch heard the words silently, and then looked up and said, "Then where do you think we are going next?"

"Yanguan City." Qiu Jiu spit out three words faintly.

The rosefinch was stunned: "Yanguan City? Isn't that the city of the coalition?"

Qiu Jiu said lightly: "The reason why the four-way coalition can run rampant in the wilderness is that the number of each legion is about 100,000. This is just an ordinary soldier. You can see the situation of the First Legion of the Tiejia. The legion is also equipped with no more than 20,000 practitioners. Although the barbarians are brave, they are scattered. With the power of a city, how can you defeat such a large number of invaders? Failure is simply doomed.

"Then what are we going to Yanguan City for?" The rosefinch is strange.

"Go kill and set fire." When Qiu Jiu said this, it was as easy as telling people to go to a restaurant.

The rosefinch reached out to touch Qiu Jiu's forehead, but was taken a step back by him. Then, the rosefinch's voice was like moaning: "It seems that you are not sick, it's me who is sick. Although your cultivation has made great progress in the past three years, the addition of body refining, soul condensation and casting knives is only the extent of human beings in the late ice age. This strength is no different from going to Yanguan City and dying.

"Strength is not an arithmetic problem, nor is it as simple as one plus one equals two. I still have a lot of things to do, so I don't mean to die. Naturally, I have my own reason when I go to Yanguan City. Qiu Jiu asked lightly, "Tell me, what is their biggest advantage of the four-way legion, with a total of 400,000 people?"

"Number of people." The rosefinch said without hesitation.

Qiu Jiu said lightly: "The only advantage of many people is the consumption of more food. For 400,000 people, where does the food consumed by the coalition every day come from?

The rosefinch's eyes lit up: "Yanguan City!"

Qiu Jiu nodded and said in a low voice, "In the past three years, the coalition has won more and lost less, killing millions of barbarians and corpses. The organized resistance of the barbarians has become less and less. Even large tribes such as the Tigers have been attacked by the coalition, leaving only a lonely city, not to mention those small tribes. Therefore, the vigilance of Yanguan City will not be very high. With the strength of you and me, it is very simple to sneak into Yanguan City, kill one or 20 grain guards, and then set fire to burn all the grain reserves in Yanguan City. Moreover, the four-way coalition without food support will soon shrink the front and retreat to garrison near Yanguan City. When the Iron-blooded City brought the grain and fodder of the 500,000 troops, it would be more than two months later. With the buffer of these two months, the barbarians should be ready for joint combat.

The rosefinch nod and said in a low voice, "Then let's go right away!"

Qiu Jiu turned around and suddenly raised his voice to the open plain and said, "Go back and tell your little prince that the barbarian soldiers are in my hands. My name is Qiu Jiu!"

In his voice, he and the rosefinch soared into the air and flew away in the direction of Yanguan City.

As for whether the two ice-cling masters hidden in the dark brought back Qiu Jiu's original words word without saying a word. We pressed the table, just to mention the Qiu Jiu and the rosefinch, and finally saw the outlines of the two cities on the horizon seven days later.

Yanguan City, whose name is one, is composed of two cities, Yancheng and Guancheng.

Yancheng is on the left, responsible for stationing the army, and Guancheng is on the right, specializing in storing grain. Between the walls of the two cities, there are three five-person-wide wooden bridges, each 20 meters long, connecting the two cities. In this way, no matter which city has problems, the garrison of the other city can quickly reach the opposite city through these three wooden bridges.

The resident army in Yanguan City was originally 20,000, but due to the inevitable loss of soldiers in the process of advancing the five-way coalition, the garrison in Yanguan City has been transferred several times by the five-way coalition, and the current number of garrison is less than 8,000.

Despite this, the senior management of the Tie family did not worry about the safety of Yanguan City.

The two largest tribes were beaten into a lonely city, and the other was cut into pieces by 100,000 steel knives of the Second Army and wiped out. The whole barbarians are trembling under the steel knife of the Iron Family. It is too late for various tribes to avoid it. Who dares to touch the tiger's beard at this time - this group of barbarians also need this military strength.

But they never thought that the most unlikely problem would happen here.

The sky was good, and the moon was covered by thick clouds, leaving no gap. Through the night, Qiu Jiu and the rosefinch quietly climbed over the wall and almost slipped into the city under the eyes of the guards. The two people's feet did not fall to the ground, and the divine consciousness released has put all the surrounding situations in their hearts.

This place has been comfortable for too long and far away from the front line of the battlefield. The bravest soldiers and soldiers eager to make contributions left during the previous draws. The ones left are either the soldiers who came to fool around, or the children of the Tie family who came to make some military achievements. When a person survives to this, they are basically those who have no strength and don't want to work hard. Such a person naturally can't detect the existence of Qiu Jiu and the rosefinch.

Previously, Qiu Jiu was still a little worried. After all, grain and grass are the lifeblood of the three armies. No matter how reassured the Tie family is, they will put one or two masters here. However, after sweeping the divine consciousness of the rosefinch, many bright piles and hidden whistles were found, but they were all taken by ordinary soldiers. The defenses here were so lax that there was not even a practitioner in the Yuanying period.

It won't be a trap, will it?

As soon as this idea flashed in Qiu Jiu's mind, he threw it behind his mind.

With the cultivation of the two, it is enough to deal with it!

The rosefinch pointed to the round buildings in front of the two, which were barns full of grain. Under the divine consciousness of the two, the outer wall has no effect at all, and the internal scene clearly appears in the mind.

A layer of linen cladding full of rice, wheat and soybeans, densely filling the whole barn, and such barns one by one, row after row, like soldiers preparing for inspection, making people unable to see the end of the phalanx at a glance.

In this phalanx, a team of patrolling soldiers will come out from time to time.

But for Qiu Jiu, their heavy footsteps have been heard 1,500 meters away. Not to mention that in this dark night, the torch held high in the hands of the patrol is like telling those who want to do it: We are coming.

After repeatedly confirming that there was indeed no food in the warehouse, Qiu Jiu nodded to the rosefinch with cold eyes, which was a signal that he was ready to take action!

At this time, the rosefinch shook its head gently and blinked its right eye gently. Qiu Jiuzheng wondered what the rosefinch meant. The divine consciousness suddenly tightened, and someone broke into the warning range of Qiu Jiu's divine consciousness.

Because Qiu Jiu prevents accidents, the range of divine detection should be enlarged as much as possible, with itself as the center, within a radius of 1,500 meters, which is the detectable range of Qiu Jiu. But in this way, the clarity of divine detection will inevitably be sacrificed. Qiu Jiu only knew that a humanoid outline was coming this way, but he could not further know the details of this thing. However, it doesn't matter. As long as it enters within 800 meters, Qiu Jiu can accurately analyze the identity, cultivation and other information.

So, Qiu Jiu was waiting for someone to approach.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly stopped and flashed to the side at a fast speed. In the direction of the man's progress, a team of patrolmen was passing by without delay. This action made Qiu Jiu stunned and came to dodge the patrol? Is it also here to set fire?

Qiu Jiu looked at the sky, and the moon was still lying quietly behind the clouds. This kind of dark autumn night is really powerful for people with bad intentions.

Qiu Jiu smiled faintly in his heart. No matter what the person did, he could not pose a threat to his action this time. Qiu Jiu has seen from the man's dodge action just now that this person's cultivation is probably around the middle of Yuanying, and the detection range of divine consciousness will never exceed 100 meters. If he dares to hinder himself from doing things, he can kill this person in an instant before he finds himself.

While the murderous spirit floated in Qiu Jiu's heart, his consciousness suddenly tightened again. This time, two people came in, one of whom was extremely tall and burly. Even if he was on the edge of Qiu Jiu's consciousness, he was still as obvious as a moving hill. The other person is also tall, but compared with the person around him, he inevitably looks a little petite. Like the previous man, the two of them hid all the way and touched in their own direction.

I didn't expect that the night in Guancheng was really lively.

As soon as Qiu Jiu turned his mind, he inadvertently saw the smiling eyes of the rosefinch, as if saying to Qiu Jiu, "Look at the good day you choose." Qiu Jiu's eyes turned cold with a wry smile, and then his eyes turned cold, because the other party found him.

The three people who came in first and two later converged in the short period of eye contact between Qiu Jiu and Zhuque. Under the leadership of one of them, they walked forward and walked more than 100 meters. At this time, there was still more than 50 steps away from Qiu Jiu's 800 meters, but the other party obviously stopped, and then quickly, the three people Unexpectedly, he stepped back step by step.
