Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 284 Returned in defeat!
The next day, dawn. The night wind has not yet dispersed, and the grass dew is crystal clear.
Tang En spent the quietest night in the past three or four days. Although he kept bumping on the horse, he never rested. But my heart felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off me, and I felt particularly relaxed.
Yes, the Space Pupil on the left shoulder still has no response!
Tang En has been trapped by this in the past few days. He often spends half a day in a hurry, but when he arrives in a city, he can't afford to rest and moves around again in embarrassment. This is just physical. Although I am tired, I can still bear it. The key is the heavy psychological pressure that exists all the time. It feels like a god of death with a sickle blowing on the back of the neck, and keeps thinking, die quickly, die quickly... why don't you die? ?
Death is scary, but the feeling of waiting for death is even more difficult!
…
For a moment, the outline of a city was vaguely visible in the morning mist at the end of the official road.
Instead of taking a different route around the city as before, Tang En headed straight for this unknown city. There was nothing he could do, he was relaxed now, but the horse that had been urged to gallop all night couldn't bear it anymore and had to get another one.
As we get closer, the general scale of the city wall comes into view. This should be a small city. Tang En arrived at just the right time. When he rushed to the city gate, the city gate just opened slowly.
Throwing down the entry fee of ten copper coins, Tang En became the first passerby in this city today.
At such a time, naturally most people in this city haven't woken up yet. The streets were deserted, with no shops open and no one around. The sound of horse hooves tapping on the bluestone floor was particularly crisp and clean.
After Tang En rode his horse for a while, he met a citizen woman who had gotten up early to buy groceries. I got off my horse and found out the location of the horse market, just as I was thanking him and leaving. Suddenly, a childish and slightly sharp voice broke the tranquility of the city.
Extra number! Extra number! The gray-clothed bandits successfully raided, and Bran's regular army returned in defeat. Extra number, extra number...
When Tang En heard this, his body trembled and his expression was incomprehensible. Then he slowly turned his head and saw a newsboy waving paper rushing out from the corner of the street. His face turned red and he shouted desperately...
…
…
The name Gray Army is a taboo for the authorities, so when it is used, it is usually followed by suffixes such as bandit and rioter. This newsboy obviously didn't understand the complex meaning. He was shouting so hard now, just because he thought he had caught the selling point, hoping to attract people's attention and sell the newspaper in his hand.
There is no doubt that he has a good entry point and successfully attracts people's attention. When passing by here, Tang En and several citizens paid for a share.
Unfolding the newspaper, Tang En quickly scanned the headlines on the front page, touched his nose, and felt a little dazed for a moment.
The newsboy was not a headline maker, and what he shouted before was not watery. That was almost the truth. However, the content of such an important event is not much, and it only occupies an area the size of a tofu block on the front page of the newspaper.
There are no specific details of the battle, just a few sentences of introduction. It is said that when Bran's regular army was approaching the gray-clothed bandit's station, they were careless and were successfully attacked, and then returned defeated. Most of the words that followed were ridiculing the gray-clothed bandits for not following the rules of the battlefield and committing such villainous behavior. Finally, they comforted Bran's regular army to learn their lesson and regain their strength to fight back again.
The content behind this is of course nonsense. On the battlefield, the winner is king. Furthermore, this sneak attack strategy would be used by a general as long as he had the opportunity, and it had nothing to do with the actions of a villain or anything like that. I believe that if the regular military succeeds with this strategy, what will appear will be foresight, flexible use of tactics, etc. Another argument.
As for reviving the situation and fighting back, it is also a joke. It's not that Tang En doesn't believe that the Bran Empire has this ability. Although the fierce fighting on the front line is going on, it can still be done by gathering an army again. But no matter what, this defeated army gave up.
In fact, when he heard that this army only had 35,000 people, Tang En had a premonition in his heart. If it were the previous Gray Army, the number of them was indeed enough. Even if it could not be defeated at once, it could still be done after a lot of entanglement to weaken the Gray Army so that it would not affect the frontline operations.
But now, when they came out of Tang En, the number of combat personnel in the gray army was close to 50,000, and Old General Oumeng and the others were preparing to build the Fifth Army. And because of the imaginary battle plan, veterans leading new recruits and other strategies, the actual combat effectiveness of the Gray Army is not low. Although it cannot be compared with the three frontline legions, it is still no problem against those soldiers who are either eliminated or second-rate in the Armaments Department.
Therefore, according to Tang En's guess, this regular army temporarily put together by the Northern Arms Department not only failed to see what the Gray Army garrison looked like, but it must have been defeated and completely collapsed. Most of the soldiers who survived today He was probably escaping in the wilderness...
…
Oh, the Gray Army is amazing!
Destroyed more than 30,000 regular soldiers in one fell swoop. Are you sure this isn't a joke?
There's a lot of fun to watch now...
…
One after another, screams of surprise rang out among the citizens who got up early. Although the newspaper now has the words in black and white in front of them, most people still can't believe the news for a while.
After coming back to his senses, Tang En curled his lips and chuckled, then got on the horse.
This news cannot be concealed. Of course, if it were before, the official newspapers might not mention this matter. But now everyone knows that the Gray Army has its own propaganda methods. If the official does not say anything now, the Gray Army will be even more passive when it is exposed. However, the official just said it, and naturally would not exaggerate it, so there was such a breaking news, but it only occupied such a small space.
Of course, these things have little to do with Tang En now. The gray army's garrison has been exposed. Although the regular soldiers are defeated now, there must still be heavy troops along the way to the garrison. The reason is also very simple. One is to monitor the movements of the Gray Army. The second is to prevent people in the city from sneaking out and joining the Gray Army. After all, the location of the station has been exposed.
So after thinking about it, Tang En found that he still couldn't get any help and could only continue to run away.
The road to the horse market was still peaceful, but when Tang En bought a new horse and trotted out of the city. The whole city was completely boiling because of the content in the newspaper.
No matter where he went, Tang En's ears could easily pick up opinions and comments about this incident. At this time, we can see the effect of Josiah's advance propaganda. Most of the citizens' comments are beneficial to the Gray Army. While secretly supporting the Gray Army in a low voice, they curse the Bran nobles and prepare to see them. jokes and so on.
Tsk, tsk, this is the time to get popular... Tang En sighed after smacking his mouth twice.
This place is not far from the boundary of Shiwandashan, so it is the first to get the news. After it gradually spreads, the entire north may be shaken by three earthquakes.
Tang En already had a vague premonition in his heart that the Gray Army might truly become an independent political force and appear in front of the world.
This is not an exaggeration. Decades of silent struggle have given it such a foundation. When the time comes, if you raise your arms and shout, there will definitely be many people responding. This can be seen from the effect of the farm's publicity.
And I have to say that the opportunity now is really great. The Bran Empire is busy fighting a war with the Northern Wilderness tribe, and even now it is at a disadvantage, unable to spare much power to deal with this henchman in gray. On the contrary, the Gray Army took advantage of this opportunity and had great potential. After consolidating the rear, we will definitely set our sights on wider places, such as cities...
Tang En could see this, and it was certainly impossible for Luo Sha not to see it, so what followed was bound to be a stormy meeting with stormy waves crashing on the shore!
…
Amidst all kinds of lively discussions, Tang En left the city gate and walked northwest again.
If someone plotted his itinerary on a map, he would find that he basically walked around the Shiwanda Mountains, and there was a very familiar city name far ahead...
At noon, Tang En arrived in a city again. We stopped for a while, had lunch, and then prepared some horse supplies and set off again. The next city was not close to here, and it would take a conservative estimate that it would take a day and midnight to get there.
And just after leaving the city, Tang En suddenly trembled as the horse's figure continued to rise and fall, and then he subconsciously looked to his left shoulder. It's getting slightly hot there...
After a while, Tang En shook his head slightly, curled his lips and said bitterly: Nima, I prayed for you in vain, it's not helpful at all!
That's right, the effect of the Eye of Space has arrived again! This shows that Oliver and the others have successfully gotten rid of or killed the Temple of Light team.
With this result, Tang En was naturally a little frustrated. Although I had a premonition that Oliver and the others would not die so easily, there was still some hope. What’s even more depressing is that instead of annihilating each other, the people from the Temple of Light didn’t even manage to delay...
The sensing of the Space Pupil has a distance limit. Although it is not precise, it can still be roughly known. With the strength of the great magician, the sensing range should be several hundred kilometers. As long as Tang En can be given some more time to break out of this range, it will undoubtedly be difficult for Samp and the others to find him. After all, without knowing the direction, they will become headless flies...
Phew... shrugged his shoulders, let out a long sigh, and Tang En quickly regained his composure. The result has been like this. Being discouraged or anything like that will not help. Now I can only continue to run away and silently think about my next plan...
It's up to you now. Please, you must work hard!
