Immediately after the shot was fired, there seemed to be a bunch of stains on Gangbo's body, and it was still spreading slowly. It looked as if someone had poured a pool of sticky dirty water on him.[

But what is certain is that Gangbo did not suffer any harm from this. He was just stunned, looking down at the surface of his body in confusion, as if he had no idea what happened.

Is the effect of fifteen thousand taels of silver just to stain Gangbo's body?

But in the next second, fifty feet above the battlefield, a whirlpool-like hollow suddenly appeared strangely. The depths of the hollow were gray and foggy, seemingly unfathomable, and then suddenly appeared from the air.

Biao shot out a ball of light, which was also deathly gray.

At this time, many people had seen the strange situation on the battlefield, and also saw this shrill light. Then, whether they were from Wu Zuocheng's side or the Boni Kingdom's side, they all invariably felt the pain coming from their hearts.

Strong negative emotions...pain, depression, impending disaster, grief, and grief.

For a moment, I felt that I was completely in despair. The future of my life was so gloomy, and I might as well die immediately to get out of this situation.

People with keen senses such as Lin Fengjin realized that this light should actually have a life of its own!!

Immediately afterwards, this ball of sad light drew an arc and shot towards Gang Bo, but Lin Fengjin had a clear understanding in his heart, that is, the target of this ball of light was not actually Gang Bo at all.

, but the "sticky dirty water" that was suddenly splashed on Gang Bo's body!!

That deathly gray light can be said to be very abnormal. Anyone who sees it will have the desire to die immediately, let alone Gangbo who is the first to bear the brunt? But Gangbo is still the commander of an army after all.

Facing the huge pressure, he actually made a breakthrough and roared. He pulled out the long knife from his waist, aimed at the dead gray light, and slashed it with one blow!

However, the deathly gray light was not afraid at all, and it still passed by Gang Bo's body, as if the sword cut down had no effect on it at all.

Then...Gang Bo maintained the posture of slashing with the sword and stood frozen on the spot. Immediately afterwards, he saw that the expression on Gang Bo's face quickly withered and changed color, and he seemed to have aged so suddenly.

A hundred years later, it became a mummy. Then a gust of wind blew, and you could see a large amount of ashes floating out from the place penetrated by the dead gray light, which happened to form a basketball on Gangbo's body.

Oval-shaped cavity.

Immediately afterwards, Gang Bo fell to the ground silently, giving the impression that his fragile and decaying body could not resist gravity at all. Then his body was quickly disintegrated by the wind, turning into ashes and drifting with the wind.

Gone away. In the end, only a faint human figure was left on the ground, and a sharp steel knife...

The principle of this fatal shot is to emit a ball of liquid that sticks to the target. This liquid is the food that the strange monsters in the Shura world are very eager to salivate. If the person who is hit by the shot immediately holds his breath,

Treating itself completely like a stone, the time-devouring demon licked up the food liquid it longed for and left, harmless to humans and animals.

However, if the person who was shot develops any hostility, the Time-Eating Demon will immediately take away his fragile life!!

In April of the Jiashen year, Gangbo returned with a fully loaded army. With full force, he attacked Wuzuo City from the west.

defeat,

Died......!!!

***

The defeat of Gangbo immediately had a wide impact on the entire East China Sea Allied Forces.

Originally, this was the first stage of the strategy implemented by the East China Sea Allied Forces. All parts of the Central Plains were caught off guard. For them, it can be said that the situation was excellent. 99% of the news fed back from each theater was good. Even more than 50% of the time.

The rewards obtained by the troops who went out were beyond imagination.

However, there are still two places where the development is unsatisfactory. One place is Shangmao City, which His Highness Tianlu is attacking in the Kingdom of the Rising Sun. This is a new city. It is said that the wealth here is astonishing. There are even Jiangzuo, Xiangfan, and Jiangsu.

Right Shigeru's statement.

However, His Highness Tianlu's forceful attacks and raids have always been unsatisfactory. Even two of his eight ghosts were killed in the battle, and he was never able to gain any favor.

However, His Highness Tianlu later divided his troops into two groups, going all the way up to Huzhou and all the way down to Ningzhou. Immediately, he became unstoppable and regained all the losses he had suffered.

Then, the Gangbo incident happened.

Due to Gangbo's persistence in this battle, the ace "Cane Cutting Army" of the Balni Kingdom mobilized 15,000 people with the strength of the whole country. More than 4,000 people were killed and injured here, while the Red Flag of the Balni Kingdom originally

There were only more than 200 people in total, and more than 30 people died in this battle. It is said that after hearing the news, Bang Guo, the commander-in-chief of the Bo Ni Kingdom, was so angry that he threw three cups on the spot!! The direct women of the third generation of Gangbo were repeatedly

Hundreds of rounds!

Later, he even said that it was his luck that Gangbo, the deputy commander, died in battle, otherwise he would have been bitten to death by a crocodile!

And Gangbo was also the highest-ranking general who died in battle since the invasion of the East China Sea countries.

The news of Gangbo's defeat was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, making everyone stunned. However, the responses of the armies afterwards were different.

Naturally, the people who responded the most fiercely were the people of the Balni Kingdom. The commander-in-chief of the Balni Kingdom, Bang Guo, immediately convened an emergency meeting. There was only one topic on the agenda, which was to crush Wu Zuocheng and bloodbath the East Bay.

The atmosphere at the meeting was said to be very enthusiastic. Almost all the participating generals stood up and made positive speeches, impassionedly expressing their willingness to show off our country's prestige in this foreign land and severely punish the murderers. However, the last sentence exposed the fox's tail.

If they come out, they will reveal the idea of ​​having more than enough ambition but not enough power. In other words, the prerequisite for them to do this is to take the position of deputy commander-in-chief vacated by Gangbo's death...

We can't blame these generals for being greedy for power. In fact, their ranks are almost the same as Gangbo's. They are the "slaves" of the Bo Ni Kingdom. They are probably similar to lieutenant generals, but Gangbo's sister is working as a concubine for the king.

That's why I was able to get the lucrative job of director of Theater No. C.

You would rather have a chicken head than an ox tail. There is a mother-in-law taking care of the head here. Although I am a deputy commander in the No. C theater, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. I have the final say on everything.

Even a fool can tell the good from the bad among the emperors and princes of a land.

Bang Guo saw that all of his subordinates were not united and all had other agendas. He went to discuss with his staff and planned to divert the group's efforts to the correct route, and said:

"If we want to avenge Gang Bo, we must first have enough siege equipment. Secondly, Wu Zuocheng is a thorn in the flesh of War Zone C. After defeating it, it will not only be convenient for our family, but also C

Luju Kingdom and Black Teeth Kingdom in the war zone will also benefit, so they also need to send troops."

After hearing this, all the generals remained silent, thinking that the commander-in-chief Bang Guo was ignorant:

Those bastards were all watching the joke. Besides, if Wu Zuocheng was easy to chew, he would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? Only that idiot Gang Bo would go crazy and throw his army into it. He would have no time to do so.

With the manpower and material resources that have come down, it is really better to make more trips to the Central Plains to save worry, trouble and effort. The benefits gained are even more abundant, how can we send troops?

But Bang Guo then said simply:

"Whoever can persuade the other two countries to send troops will come to take Gangbo's place..."

All the generals suddenly became sad, but some of them still refused to give up. Those who were familiar with the generals from these two countries naturally went to ask for information, but as soon as they arrived, before they could say anything, the people on the other side started talking about the relationship between the two.

Friendship. The friendship between the two countries, and then he began to complain that his expedition really suffered heavy casualties and the casualties were messy. Finally, he preemptively asked the brothers of Bo Ni to lend tens of thousands of troops...

Or these people just support the Bo Ni Kingdom in spirit to regain face and justice, but when it comes to actual actions, haha...

In the end, there was actually a general who managed the work of Black Tooth Kingdom and Lu Ju Kingdom. Surprised, Bang Guo doubted the authenticity of this and sent a letter to inquire about Black Tooth Kingdom and Lu Ju Kingdom. He actually got

The answer is true.

There was no joke in the army. The general sat happily in the coveted position, and then there was no movement. Under Bang Guo's urging, the deputy commander could only unite the Black Tooth Kingdom and Lu Ju Kingdom to launch an attack on Wu Zuocheng. Finally,

The result...of course was the unfortunate return from the battle.

At this time, the second wave of plundering plans was about to begin again, and Bang Guo had no time to take care of him. Only later did he learn the truth of the matter. It turned out that the so-called attack on Wu Zuocheng by the commander-in-chief united the Black Tooth Kingdom and the Lu Ju Kingdom was far away.

Some arrows were fired a few hundred meters away, and the shouts of killing were earth-shattering. The soldiers heard that they only needed to show off, and their morale was extremely high...

And why were Black Tooth Kingdom and Lu Ju Kingdom willing to cooperate with this guy in acting? It was this deputy commander who actually agreed to share 30% of the next robbery as dividends...

After learning the truth, Bang Guo almost fainted with anger. Of course, this is a story for another day.

***

After the battle of Gangbo, peace returned to Wu Zuocheng.

After the war, Wu Zuocheng also made a very generous statement. An envoy galloped out and said that he allowed the East China Sea Allied Forces to come to the city to collect the corpses of their friendly forces. Otherwise, they would burn them all with a fire, and then

Get water and wash the ashes into the sea.

However, those collecting corpses cannot wear weapons and cannot exceed 300 people.

This condition finally eased the tension between the two sides, and then the subject of prisoner exchange came to the forefront. Of course, for the East China Sea Allied Forces, a large-scale exchange of prisoners had never been considered. They felt that throwing these prisoners in

Among Wu Zuocheng, Wu Zuocheng's food and grass are still a huge burden. What they want to exchange are those loyal warriors and Xiao Jian.

Therefore, in this exchange, Lin Fengjin got two more carts of Donghai's special products.

Then, as Zhong Yasuo said before, Yao Guice's life was much easier, and no one was talking nonsense anymore.

And as the East China Sea Alliance Army captured more and more Central Plains slaves, the former auxiliary soldiers of the East China Sea Alliance Army were liberated, put on new armor, picked up weapons, and entered the ranks of combat soldiers. Soldiers were in short supply.

It was also compensated.

Under this circumstance, Yao Guice's requests for important people and goods were quickly approved, and the barrier defense line began to be rebuilt amidst the cries of the slaves in the Central Plains, and Yao Guice's soldiers were replenished to six.

There are thousands of people, and although most of them are auxiliary soldiers who have temporarily transferred to other positions, there is not much difference if they are used for defense.

Black Teeth Country, Bo Ni Country, and Lu Ju Country even told Crow Guice that the harvest from this robbery far exceeded expectations, so they simply transported half of the harvest back to their home country. After this half of the harvest was shipped back, I believe

He can also form a large number of reserve troops to cross the sea, which will expand his line of defense to 100,000 people.

In the face of Gangbo's bloody example, almost all three countries have reached a consensus at this time, which is the best tactic for dealing with these grassland barbarians. It is better to besiege rather than attack. As long as the city is cut off from the outside world, there will always be food in the city.

If one day doesn't work for one year, then wait for two years; if it doesn't work for two years, then wait for three years.

At this time, Ya Gui Ce, who was resurrected with full health, also regained his strength and became energetic. He couldn't help but look at Wu Zuo City, looking forward to the day when he besieged the city until the food supply was exhausted. He must have ascended the throne as a conqueror.

Going up to the tower of this city must be the pinnacle of your life.

However, Yao Guice had an intuition in his heart, that is, the person who dominates this city is definitely not willing to sit back and wait for the food to run out!!

"The opponent will definitely counterattack and break the situation!" This was the intuition that came from Yao Guice's heart.

However, intuition cannot be used as evidence. No matter how doubtful Ya Guice is in his heart, he can only do his duty silently.
To be continued...
