Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 6590 Little White Flower

The efficiency of the Zhao and Cui families was frighteningly high. They almost rushed straight to Media at the fastest speed. For them, although they were not very sure about Media's current situation, they were still happy to take a gamble if they had to.

Moreover, as they advanced towards Media at high speed, they met fleeing merchants on the road, and after learning more information, their confidence in their actions increased greatly.

"Contact Cui. Rather than fighting alone, what both of us need most now is to capture Media as soon as possible. The other party should be willing to join forces." Zhao Jian intercepted several merchants who had fled from Media on the road. After confirming the true situation, he quickly made a judgment.

At the same time, Cui Jun, the leader of the Cui family, also made the same judgment. Compared with the Wei family who were most likely still waiting and watching, and Guo Liuyin who had already fled, Cui Jun thought that the Zhao family should have the same amazing adventurous spirit as their family, and should have begun to bet on the situation in Media, and now it is obvious that they have won the bet. Instead of hindering each other and causing other families to rush in, it would be better for the two families to work together to take down Media first, and then talk about other things.

The Cui and Zhao families marched into Media, communicating with each other all the way. After receiving news from each other, the two sides hit it off and successfully met on the seventh day after the fall of Media, and then rushed towards Media in an almost forced march.

"The scouts I sent out earlier have returned. We are now no more than fifty miles away from the main force of the bandits lingering in Media. The scouts said that the bandits have not left Media and are occupying the fortified city, but their overall number seems to have decreased significantly." Cui Jun came to inform Zhao Jian as soon as his own intelligence was sent back.

Although Cui Jun knew very well that after both sides conquered Media, there would be a quarrel over the distribution of interests, but before the conquest, the relationship between the two sides was an unbreakable alliance. They were comrades-in-arms and brothers, and they must support each other and be open with each other.

"So fast?" Zhao Jian let out a breath and said with some disbelief. Although this is the process of mutual disclosure of intelligence, Cui brought back the intelligence so quickly, and it is impossible to forge it under the current circumstances. It can only be said that Cui's hidden strength is indeed a bit outrageous.

Cui Jun just looked at Zhao Jian calmly without saying anything. In fact, it could be even faster. If not for their own super backbones being sent to East Africa to fight the locust plague, the mobility of those brothers who had undergone the sixth level of smelting would have been even higher.

"Let's rest for a day, and then head straight here." Zhao Jian opened the map of the terrain around Media and pointed to the bandit army's front line discovered by their two scouts.

"Why attack here?" Cui Jun frowned. Until now, the heads of the major families said that they knew nothing about military affairs. That was pure nonsense. The development of military aristocrats was based on the creation of people. You could be a little worse in military affairs, but if you didn't know military affairs, you would not be able to secure your position as the head of a family.

Because he was knowledgeable about military affairs, Cui Jun felt somewhat strange when he saw the position Zhao Jian pointed to. This was not a strategic point, nor was it a core area, so why attack here?

"There are a large number of prohibited war equipment at this location, including dozens of large triple-crossbows, equipped with hundreds of etched God-Slaying Spears, and half a regiment of etched armor, Yuanrong crossbows, and some other prohibited materials. It looks like just an ordinary point, but it is the real core of the entire front line." Zhao Jian thought about it and felt that since things had come to this, some things had to be said.

“???” Cui Jun frowned, then looked down at the battle line again. If he looked at the battle line of the refugees on the opposite side based on the fact that all the weapons and equipment at this position were like this, then there would be a big difference.

"The leader on the opposite side has some abilities. In this case, the disharmony of the entire battle line is very clear. The battle line is completely built around these things." Cui Jun did not pursue why Zhao Jian knew this. He just brought what Zhao Jian said into the battle line and understood the situation.

"Well, their abilities are OK, but very immature. It's normal for heroes to emerge in troubled times, so we'll launch a feint attack on all fronts, and I'll lead the team to take care of this place." Zhao Jian pointed to the place where the super equipment gathered, and spoke confidently.

Upon hearing this, Cui Jun looked at the battle line again. If Zhao Jian could quickly take over here, with the Cui family's military strength, it would not be a problem to break through the entire battle line and cause a reversal.

"Are you sure you can do it?" Cui Jun said seriously.

"Don't worry, I won't cheat you before we conquer Media and divide the supplies." Zhao Jian waved his hand and told the truth.

“Okay, you deal with this place, and I will lead Cui’s elite troops to tear open the battle line and rush directly to Media Trading City. Maybe we can even go back into the city.” Cui Jun said, pointing to another location.

"It's better not to. The enemy is at this city gate. If you break through it and cause the battle line to reel back, there are many God-Slaying Spears piled up at this city gate where you want to rush in. They are also guarding against this possibility." Zhao Jian said, pointing in the direction where Cui Jun was rushing, as if he knew everything.

"How do you know?" Cui Jun frowned.

"Doesn't your family sell these banned substances?" Both parties are now in the same boat and don't care about exposing their true colors. What's more, the families that continue to sell banned substances all have their own tricks. I can't be beaten with the things I sell. That would be embarrassing.

"Not before. After the locust plague came, we sold some and exchanged for food, but wasn't that robbed by the refugees? The food wasn't even transported back. Damn Zhen family!" Cui Jun said with a gloomy face.

"Don't you mark the prohibited materials when you sell them? Don't you have some secret techniques to respond?" Zhao Jian asked with a ghostly look on his face. How could he ask a question to a newbie who knows nothing about participating in this industry?
"What mark? Cui's seal? How is that possible? My family would rather no one know about it. Although they can't hide it, they still have to leave as few traces as possible." Cui Jun said with some confusion. Their family was hit by locusts this year, so they sold some contraband materials to make up for the loss. In the end, they didn't make up for the loss, and the contraband materials were robbed. He was really convinced. "And what is the secret response technique?"

Zhao Jian was silent for a while. Damn it, our family can’t be the only one that does this.

"Make a positioning mark. This mark can display the position of the weapon within a certain range under the effect of special secret techniques. The response secret technique is even simpler. Send a signal based on the special secret technique, and the weapon with special etching will give an answer to determine the precise position and provide you with matching lock." Zhao Jian glanced at Cui Jun. You don't know anything, but you're selling contraband materials. Are you an idiot?

When Cui Jun heard this, a circle of question marks almost appeared on his head. Damn, is there something wrong with you or me? But after a long while, Cui Jun realized, fuck, it's our Cui family that has the problem, this kind of contraband materials should indeed be handled like this.

"Brother, how come you, the Cui family, didn't put up any marks, not even a response lock?" Zhao Jian looked at Cui Jun with a bit of frustration. Damn it, if that was the case, it would explain why he could only lock out half of the group with the response lock at that point. It turned out that there was a bunch of idiots who knew nothing and were also selling contraband materials. Didn't you guys take any fucking precautions?

"This is the first time we sell this thing, and we don't know either." Cui Jun realized at this time that things were getting complicated. When a guy like Zhao sold contraband materials, the Great Empire could quickly discover the secrets and then remove them, but Cai Gouzi would definitely not be able to remove them, and if he couldn't remove them, he would not be able to use them to hurt his own family.

Especially the answering secret technique, which is simply the first choice of the villains for locking stuff. It is simply against the will of heaven. As long as the positioning secret technique is used to determine the location of the etched weapons sold by the company, and then the answering secret technique is used to activate it, it can accurately form a lock, and then use the matching weapons to fire at it, basically it can hit the locked weapons 100%.

"Don't you know why you can ask someone else?" Zhao Jian looked at Cui Jun and didn't know how to communicate with him. It seems that there are really all kinds of people.

"This is contraband. How can I ask?" Cui Jun was also helpless. With Zhao Jian's explanation, he understood the situation more clearly. He could only admit that their Cui family was stupid.

"Does this kind of thing need to be taught?" Zhao Jian began to doubt his life. Aren't all the noble families bad? How come there is such a little white flower?
"I really don't know. I just counted the food and found that there was not enough food, so I brought a bunch of contraband materials here to sell in exchange for food and fodder." Cui Jun said to Zhao Jian with more sighs.

"Forget it, just don't attack this city gate. Go and deal with the refugees first. I will deal with the enemy's main force." Zhao Jian was helpless, but he didn't want to get entangled in this matter. He just assumed that the Cui family was stupid.

Compared to Nanguidalit, who had no commanding figures, the refugees in Anxi still had some figures after their numbers reached a certain level. Just like the battle lines arranged this time and the tactics centered around top-notch weaponry, they were all arranged by the leaders among these refugees.

People can rack their brains to survive, and there are always some talented people among hundreds of thousands of refugees. It can be said that without bad guys like Zhao Jian and imperial-level technical crushing, the battle line laid out by these refugees is not easy to deal with. Of course in other aspects, these newly emerging refugee leaders are still somewhat immature.

"Have you identified the person who built the defense line?" In the pitch-dark dawn, Zhao Jian asked the leader of his secret guards.

"Confirmed." Zhao Ming replied quickly.

"After Cui breaks through the defense line, can we take them away directly?" Zhao Jian said without turning his head.

"It's not easy. The Cui family is also watching, and they also realized that the Parthian who established the defense line is quite powerful." Zhao Ming spoke the truth. Nowadays, talents are very important to every family. As for the leader who conquered Media, that is not a problem. Anyway, things have come to this point, so just change your identity.

"If you can't get it, kill him and give him to Zhen." Zhao Jian said decisively.

"Media City is not easy to attack." Zhao Ming knew what to do without Zhao Jian saying anything. However, even if they killed the refugees on the outer front, the refugees entrenched in the city would still be difficult to defeat.

"It's not as difficult as you think. The gate of Media Trading City has a special loophole." Zhao Jian waved his hand and said, "This is a trick left over from when Media City was built a few years ago."

"Wait, why is there such a method? And I've never heard of it." Zhao Ming said to his clan leader with a confused look on his face.

"I've asked people in my clan to do a special study on it. After all, we have been selling contraband materials for so many years. You can't rely on the Zhen family for your life. You have to rely on yourself." Zhao Jian said very seriously, and Zhao Ming understood after just a moment of thought. Okay, I get it. In fact, it's our Zhao family that has low quality and no moral bottom line. We must have installed a bomb on one of the gates of Media Trading City, right? But has the Zhen family become so useless?
"Hasn't been detected?" Zhao Ming found it unbelievable. It was not easy to install such a thing on the city gate. Besides, did the Zhen family really not care about anything?
"It hasn't been discovered. I used to think that the Zhen family knew about it but were too lazy to care. But this time I know it. The Zhen family didn't find out at all." Zhao Jian sighed. When he asked his family members to make this thing before, he thought that the Zhen family was too generous and didn't want to care. Now it is certain that they probably didn't find out from the beginning.

"Anyway, just go around from the south gate and charge in directly. I don't believe that the refugees from Anxi have even changed the city gates and blocked the gate holes in the past few days." Zhao Jian sneered and said, "Gather all the men now, don't worry about the loss of weapons, and defeat the ambush points prepared by the refugees from Anxi as quickly as possible."

On the other side, after Cui Jun learned a trick from Zhao Jian, he quickly called Cui Lin to inquire. It turned out that the Cui family really did not mark the banned materials they sold, and no one in the family raised any questions in this regard. There is no doubt that the moral level of the Cui family is indeed a bit excessive. They never thought of such a thing. They are considered a relatively alternative species among the aristocratic families.

"We can't attack the East Gate. According to Zhao, the enemy has a large number of ambushes at this gate. So now, what should we do?" Cui Jun looked at Cui Lin seriously and asked.

"Use this thing to forcibly contact our own people in the city." Cui Lin brought out an altar from his boss. This was a communication device made by the Cui family. The Cui family in the Media Trading City also had it.

"We have a shop at the North City Gate, and there is a basement under the earthen kang in the shop. Our people are most likely still alive, so we should force a contact and try to see if the special weapons used to destroy contraband materials can blow up the North City Gate." Cui Lin suggested. This was one of the backup plans in itself, and it just happened to be used now.

Another month has passed. Time has passed so fast. Sigh.
