Chapter 181 Revolutionary Army Occupied Area

As a country that was stuck in the period of classical militarism and dominated by a small-scale peasant economy, the technological level of the empire is still not expected.Yi Guang and the others set off from the imperial capital in a carriage, and changed horses at post stations along the way. After several days of fast riding, they finally entered the revolutionary army's occupied area on the night of the fourth day.

Since it was a secret operation, Yi Guang and the others naturally couldn't make too much publicity. He led the "hunter" team, disguised as a small caravan, and marched low-key on the official road in the area occupied by the revolutionary army.In order not to attract attention, he even forced Porus from the "Purification Force" to take off his weird and funny mask.But it was quite surprising, under the mask of this guy, there was actually a handsome and sunny face, with beautiful blond hair and a pair of sapphire-like eyes.

Everyone was surprised by this, including Yi Guang.However, if you think about it carefully, if Porus can marry such a beautiful wife and such a cute daughter, it is only natural that his appearance is not much different.Thinking of this, Yi Guang immediately felt a little relieved.

"Well, Porus, don't you look pretty good?" Will from the Imperial Navy looked at Porus whose mask was torn off by Yiguang with a look of surprise, "Why do you wear such a strange mask?" what about?"

"Oh? Is that so? No, no, no, I think I'm actually very ugly. In the past, many people felt very uncomfortable after seeing my true face." Porus shook his head, "And I'm also quite shy , I thought the way everyone looked at me was scary, so I started wearing this mask later on.”

"Hey, hey, you're really uncomfortable wearing this mask. Those who say you're not good-looking must be because they're jealous of your handsome looks." Yi Guang grumbled, "Anyway , before we find the lair of the place, we must act in a low-key manner. So this mask, put it with me for the time being, and after we finish the task, if you still want to wear it, I will return it to you."

"Yes sir... er no, boss." Porus nodded. Although he still felt a little uncomfortable without a mask, he still obeyed Yi Guang's order, and according to Yi Guang's arrangement, called him As the "boss" to deceive others.

After all, it is a bounden duty for a soldier to obey orders... Porus has always believed so.

So just like that, they disguised themselves as a caravan and began to march slowly on the territory of the Revolutionary Army, quietly approaching the core area of ​​the Revolutionary Army.

"It's so depressed..." After entering the city near the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, Yi Guang frowned looking at the sparse pedestrians on the street.Yi Guang also entered the area occupied by the revolutionary army five years ago. Although those who rose up from the bottom were unreliable, at least they were able to govern a province.At least five years ago, Yi Guang saw in the west that although the people's livelihood in the area occupied by the revolutionary army was not very good, it was still in good shape, and it would not be as bad as it is now.

There were very few pedestrians on the street, and most of the shops on both sides were closed. Even in those shops that were open, the clerks inside were listless and kept moaning.Even if Yi Guang doesn't understand economics, he still knows that this is a situation that only occurs when people's livelihood is poor to a certain extent.

"There's not even a snack shop here." Hei Tong pouted unhappily.

"And the pedestrians are in a hurry." Tatsumi also frowned, "Even in the imperial capital when the minister was in power, there has never been such a situation."

"It's not surprising that the revolutionary army was surrounded and blocked by the armies of the provinces around the empire in the past few years. All kinds of materials are in short supply. The people's livelihood is declining, which is the inevitable result." Lan is worthy of being a teacher, and has considerable internal affairs ability in the original book. I can see the clue at a glance, "Besides, the revolutionary army is out now and needs a large amount of food, grass and money supplies. This material has to be paid on top of the taxes of these civilians. Adding the two together, such a situation occurs here. Not surprisingly."

"These rebels, claiming to be fighting against the people, didn't they end up doing things similar to those nobles in the empire?" Will looked at the lifeless street and shook his head.

"The name is the name, the reality is the reality. The revolutionary army may have a good ideal at the beginning, but they don't know how to solve the real problem." Yi Guang shook his head, "The most fundamental problem is if If it cannot be resolved, whether it is the Revolutionary Army or the Empire, they are essentially the same.”

"The fundamental problem?" Lan showed interest after hearing this, "What kind of problem is that?"

"It's a very simple, but very complicated question." Yi Guang shook his head, "I can't tell you what you want me to say for a while, but if you are interested, when we get back to the imperial capital, we can have a good time. Let’s talk. But then you might think, I’m talking nonsense.”

"How is it possible..." Lan shook her head, "You are my benefactor and my officer, I would never say such a thing to you."

"Well, who knows?" Yi Guang shook his head, "Forget it, let's talk about it later, you are also a smart person, I think you should be able to understand a thing or two."

Entering the hinterland of the Revolutionary Army, the Revolutionary Army's investigation of outsiders is getting stronger and stronger, and Yi Guang and others have to prepare for battle at any time to deal with the fact that they may be exposed at any time.Therefore, as they marched, they quietly looked around with vigilant eyes.In the end, Yi Guang arranged for everyone to live here, and then sent Lan and Will, who were the most sociable, to go out to find out the news.Tazmi needed to learn and practice, so Yi Guang thought about it and let him go too.

These three guys had a good relationship in the original book, but they couldn't become friends because of their mutual standpoints.But now, under the influence of Yi Guang, the intruder, these three guys are in the same camp, and within a few days, they have known each other and called each other brothers.

"Boss, what should we do next?" After carefully inspecting the situation in this area, Will asked Yi Guang quietly, "Strict checkpoints have been set up around here, and these guys are not stupid. The headquarters is weak, so the guards are very strict."

"How far are we from the goal?" Yi Guang touched his chin, showing a thoughtful look.

"It's not very far away. This is already the core area. The opponent's headquarters is built in the mountains nearby." Lan carefully recalled the previous insinuating conversations with the local residents, "Because the opponent's occupation is like this Small towns have weak walls, so they did not build their headquarters in the city, but chose to deploy in mountainous areas that are easy to defend and difficult to attack."

Yi Guang nodded. The Revolutionary Army's action is not surprising. As a time traveler, he still knows a lot of classic battles in the history books of the earth.This is especially true for people from the Celestial Dynasty who know a little about "Sun Tzu's Art of War". Even if you haven't read military books, some of the ideological connotations in it will be practiced unconsciously in your daily life, such as eating chicken and eating chicken. , or eat chicken... Asian clothes are rich in all kinds of old Yin B, and nine out of ten people from the Celestial Dynasty.

The revolutionary army's move was left over from the play of the seniors, and it was really not unusual for Yi Guang.

"Then, let's go directly to the mountains." Yi Guang said without thinking, "The other side built their headquarters in the mountains, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. But this one is only useful for the army of the empire." , when there are too many people in the mountains, it is difficult to move freely. And we, there are only six people, it is very convenient to walk through."

"However, the revolutionary army has been squatting in this mountain for so many years, so they are already familiar with the surrounding terrain?" Tazmi suddenly became smarter, "And we are new here, not to mention familiar with the terrain here, we don't know it at all. If they try to run, we won't be able to catch up."

"It's up to you, Tazmi." Lan said with a smile, "In addition to teleportation, doesn't your 'Dimensional Square Shangri-La' also have the ability to move in short and medium distances?"

"Yeah, Tazmi, if any of them escape, it's up to you to hunt down the fish that slipped through the net." Will also nodded.

"Hey, hey, don't be kidding, I have only got this Teigu less than ten days ago, and I am not proficient at using it." Tatsumi said with a face full of pain, "Both of you have the ability to fly, and you both use it. Teigu, who has been around for so long, is better than me no matter what."

"Okay, okay." Yi Guang waved his hand, "Tazmi is young, you two should stop teasing him as big brothers.

"After the operation begins, Lan and Tazmi will go up the mountain from a dangerous place. Tazmi, you occupy the commanding heights, and keep an eye on the position of the target leader to prevent any fish from slipping through. Lan, your Teigu has the ability to fly. Keep an eye on the situation at high altitude, and notify Tazmi immediately if there is any situation. Once the leader of the enemy escapes, Tazmi will go to intercept it. Lan, you help him sweep the formation." Yi Guang looked at Tazmi and Lan "At the same time, the two of you should also pay attention to the enemy's movements on the periphery to prevent the enemy's ambush. As for the others, follow me and go up the mountain from the other side to attract the enemy's attention and buy time for Tazmi and Lan Take your place."

"Yes!"

"Then, let's take a good rest now, and then set off to go to that mountainous area, and then complete the specific plan of elimination." Yi Guang nodded, then looked at the people around him and said, "Is the imperial capital safe and sound now?"

……

"What did you say?! That bastard actually took people to the south to raid the rebel headquarters?!"

At this time, in the imperial palace of the imperial capital, in the general's office, a certain blue feline finally returned to the imperial capital from the battlefield, and wanted to find its owner. When you have a good theory about things.But I was told that this bastard actually left quietly without knowing it.

"Ah, did you abscond in fear of crime? This shameless man!" The furious head of a certain army punched the general's desk.

"General Esdes, this is my office, not your home, please don't disrupt official business casually." Opposite Esdess, a certain general said helplessly, "Lansa, what did you do again?" ?”

"Put on your clothes! I'll wash you when I turn back into a fox!"

Chapter 182 Breaking into the Headquarters

After wandering around the mountains near the legendary base of the Revolutionary Army for another three days, Yi Guang and the others finally figured out where the so-called Revolutionary Army headquarters was.At this time, everyone was already a little tired. After all, relying on the strength of six people to carry out search work in an extremely vast mountainous area, is it really fatal?Fortunately, they encountered a small team of the Revolutionary Army on the way. After the Easy Regiment wiped them out, Yi Guang and the others learned the exact address of the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army from the living mouth.Otherwise, they still have something to turn to.

"Very good, the environment here is not much different from our previous deduction results." Yi Guang and others carefully turned around here twice, and then nodded with satisfaction, "Lan, take Tazmi there first. On the top of the mountain, after putting him down, fly as stealthily as possible."

"Understood." Lan nodded, then grabbed Tazmi, who hadn't reacted yet, and flew him into the air.Tatsumi subconsciously wanted to scream, but quickly realized that he was performing a stealth mission, so he quickly shut his mouth.

"So sir, what should we do?" Porus looked at the mountain road in front of him, and at the end of the mountain road, the fortress built against the cliff, "Shall we go straight up?"

"No, let's wait first." Yi Guang waved his hand, then looked at the little girl who was eating snacks on the other side, "Heitong, it's your turn to play."

"Oh? I, I see." Hei Tong, who was eating snacks and bulging cheeks like a little hamster, was called by Yi Guang. He was stunned for a moment, but thinking about what Yi Guang said to him before coming here , she reacted immediately, "I see, wait a minute."

Saying that, Hei Tong put away his snack bag, and then pulled out the samurai sword on his body.The moment the blade appeared, everyone saw a faint black energy entwined around Hei Tong's body, and then, several people in the uniform of the Revolutionary Army came out from the bushes.

The samurai sword-shaped Teigu, "March of the Dead Hachibo", possesses the ability to manipulate the corpses of those beheaded by this sword.As the name suggests, the maximum control limit is eight corpses, but the closer the control of corpses is to the limit, the greater the mental and physical burden will be on the owner of Teigu, which will affect the combat effectiveness of the knife holder.

Taking advantage of Heitong's Teigu characteristics, Yi Guang thought of a very sinister trick.

Let Hei Tong control the corpses of the members of the revolutionary army team who were defeated by them to go up the mountain, and hide strong explosives on them in advance.Although Hachifang's corpse was revived by Teigu's power, it would not act autonomously, nor could it speak, let alone be too far away from the Teigu envoy.However, it is enough to be a stepping stone. This kind of opening is much better than waiting for others to kill directly, at least it can create a relatively long reaction time.Let the revolutionary army's information transmission speed be slightly slower.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Following a few muffled sounds, the explosives carried on the corpses of those Revolutionary Army soldiers were detonated, and the Revolutionary Army headquarters suddenly became a mess!

"Start action!" Yi Guang ordered, "Leave the outer area to Tazmi and Lan, you follow me!"

As he said that, Yi Guang took the lead, and rushed towards the mountain road ahead with a red spear on his shoulders, with flames flickering faintly all over his body.And the others, after seeing Yi Guang's appearance, were unambiguous, equipped with Teigu, followed Yi Guang and rushed over!

"Is there no one left for these rebels?" Will, who followed Yiguang, charged all the way wearing the armor-shaped Teigu "Avatar of Shura Aristocratic Chariot", and easily tore apart the periphery of the revolutionary army with Yiguang defense.Looking at the soldiers of the revolutionary army who were easily killed by them, he couldn't help making a suspicious voice, "It's the headquarters of the rebel army anyway, so why should there be one or two Tegu envoys to defend it? Why send all these ordinary soldiers?" Come and fight us?"

"Don't take it lightly. You've been with that brat Tatsumi for a long time, have you been infected by him?" Yi Guang's advice came lightly, "Don't let your guard down until you've confirmed that you've completely wiped out the opponent."

"Yes, yes, I understand sir."

"Okay, next, let's split up." After easily breaking into the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, Yi Guang looked at the fortress that was divided into two forks, "I will go one way alone, and the three of you will go one way, Will, you are a meat shield." , take care to protect them."

Saying that, Yi Guang didn't wait for their response, and rushed all the way to one of the forks, leaving several subordinates in a daze.

"Uh, the officer in the battle is like a different person." Will was stunned for a moment, "I feel like he has become taciturn and murderous."

"This is a qualified soldier." Porus showed an admiring expression, "This officer is said to be the strongest in the Imperial Army, a hero who made great achievements in the Western Theater five years ago. Woolen cloth."

"Let's go, don't waste time." Heitong reminded the two men not to waste time.Not far away, a large number of revolutionary guards rushed towards this side.

"Okay, let's go!" Will, who was wearing a black armor Teigu, stepped forward, his body bursting out with inhuman strength under the blessing of Teigu.Just like his Teigu name, the whole person turned into a steel chariot, charging wantonly in the fortress of the revolutionary army.As the brother machine of "Haunted by Evil Ghosts", the "Noble Chariot" has stronger body performance than the prototype machine, and can provide Tegushi with a higher degree of growth.

Although in contrast, it sacrificed the ability to adapt to the environment and self-evolution like "ghost haunted", but think about it carefully, from the late stage of the comic plot, Tazmi turned into a dragon, and was almost caught by the dangerous species in "ghost haunted". Looking at the case of devouring souls, losing this ability can also be said to improve a certain degree of stability to a certain extent.After all, the original positioning of these two armor-type Teigu is to enhance the user's physical fitness and defense power. Like Tatsumi's experimental method of assimilating with Teigu, it is undoubtedly on the wrong path.If it wasn't for Chitong's help, Tazmi might have been resurrected by that dangerous dragon-shaped species named "Tyrande".

"Boom!!!" And behind Will, Bruce, holding the flamethrower-shaped Teigu "Purgatory Summoned Rubigund", is constantly releasing high-temperature flames, burning the enemies from behind.Amidst the screams of countless revolutionary troops, they were reduced to ashes by this masked man.

As for Hei Tong, since she didn't bring the six or eight corpses she used to, she could only look for new corpses among the revolutionary soldiers on the scene as puppet materials.Her magic knife beheaded the enemy again and again, and the beheaded revolutionary army was quickly revived under the magic power of that Tegu, and then aimed the weapon in her hand at the former comrades in arms.These manipulated corpses, together with Will, formed the vanguard of the entire squad, tearing apart the formation of the Revolutionary Army.

……

"boom--!!!"

Once again, the enemy's corpse was picked up and hit the wall fiercely.Yi Guang wheeled the long spear in his hand, and then continued to move forward.These ordinary soldiers of the revolutionary army are meaningless to him at all, and he can kill countless such soldiers with a single attack.Yi Guang has left too many such meaningless lives along the way.

"Could it be that, apart from the 'Night Raid' and the group of trash sent to the imperial capital, the revolutionary army has no Teigu envoys available?"

Yi Guang looked at the gate in front of him. This was already the depths of the fortress. He came here alone and searched all the rooms, but he couldn't find any cadres of the Revolutionary Army.If there is nothing here, it can only mean that he is on the wrong side, and the important targets are on Will's side.However, even if he went to the wrong side, he single-handedly killed in the fortress for so long, but he didn't even meet a Teigu envoy. Could it be that after the "Night Raid" fell, the Revolutionary Army would be useless? Soldiers?

Yi Guang didn't quite believe it, he was a bit too cautious guy, it was never his style to estimate the enemy's situation so optimistically.So, full of vigilance, he opened the door.

Then, he saw an old man sitting behind a desk, calmly watching the direction of the door.

"It seems that the executioner of the empire has arrived?" The old man saw the appearance of the young man in front of him, his eyes changed a little, "Lansa, the deputy commander of the foreign army of the Imperial Guard, right?"

"You know me?" Yi Guang was a little surprised, the other party's such a calm reaction was indeed beyond his expectation.Even at this moment, he wondered if this guy had any cards.

"Don't be nervous. For a strong man who can kill the top dangerous species, there should be nothing in this world that you should be afraid of." The old man smiled, "As you can see, I am just an ordinary old man. With mediocre martial arts, without the talent of Emperor Gushi, and without those messy physical transformations, you don't need to be afraid of me at all."

"It's not fear, it's just caution." Yi Guang said lightly, "I'm just wondering why you are so calm. Also, who are you?"

"Me? I'm just a naive and pathetic leader who was abandoned by the revolutionary army." The old man smiled wryly, "You can call me Cassius, as the leader of the Anbu of the Imperial Army, you should have heard of this name. "

"Former secretary of the Imperial Army, school officer Cassius? The person who formed the Revolutionary Army 30 years ago." Yi Guang nodded, "It seems that you are the person I am looking for, but now it seems that you are living a good life. not good."

"Of course, when a group suffers a major failure and receives too much support from the outside world, the original leader may become a hindrance to those outsiders. And those subordinates who have established an interest relationship with outsiders, Driven by interests, he will also oppose the leader he originally followed." Cassius nodded, "This is the nature of being a human being."

"It seems that the cooperation with foreign nations in the West has actually made you lose power." Yi Guang sneered.

"Western aliens?" Cassius waved his hand. "It's not just those Western barbarians. The most terrifying thing is those we originally wanted to attack."

"Oh? You mean, the noble elders of the empire?" Yi Guang raised his eyebrows, "How much do you know, why don't you come and listen."

Chapter 183 The Funeral of the Revolutionary Army

The story of Cassius is actually not much new.Listening to his narration, Yi Guang felt very calm. This kind of thing is not uncommon in history, and it can even be said to be a normal state.

It's nothing more than an old-fashioned story of a talented but dissatisfied young nobleman who, because of certain opportunities, defected from the empire and embarked on the road of exile and resistance.During the journey of exile, he increased his experience and became more aware of the suffering at the bottom of the society. After thinking about it constantly, he met a group of like-minded but talented companions.Finally, when he was no longer young, the Revolutionary Army, the organization that had caused the empire to suffer, was established.

Due to the empire's perennial border opening policy and the monopoly of noble land and official positions, coupled with the protracted party struggle between the "conscience faction" and the "senator faction" in the court, the empire was already full of public grievances during the first emperor's time.Peasants, small businessmen, and declining nobles who lost their land in the land annexation... All social classes have begun to show signs of resistance.Therefore, the revolutionary army began to develop and grow in this way. Under the wise decision-making of the first batch of leaders, the early revolutionary army could indeed represent the will of the people.

However, the good times didn't last long. After the initial victory and the settlement of a considerable base, the teams that had fought side by side began to have differences.The empire is too powerful, so powerful that even the revolutionary army that has just taken shape cannot compete at all.The victory in front of him was only obtained because the behemoth empire had not fully reacted.As the leaders of the revolutionary army, those who led the rebels to victory naturally saw it more clearly than others.And the fact is the same, shortly after the revolutionary army gained a firm foothold, it was met with a frenzied counterattack by the imperial army, and the entire revolutionary army was almost destroyed in its infancy.
