Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 412: Jedi counterattack
"My lord, the brethren are all here." Suddenly someone beside him whispered.
The pelican first carefully observed the surroundings and made sure that there were no wild cats or other animals following, and then he was slightly relieved. Now as long as he closes his eyes, there will always be strange scenes of wild cats marching in line in his mind.
Only five people gathered here as agreed—compared to those who were gearing up to do a big business when they first arrived in White River City, now everyone’s faces are full of indescribable heaviness.
"Are you the only ones left?" The hard-hearted Pelican also felt a trace of pity. These subordinates followed him for a long time, for a short period of three or four years, and a long period of more than ten years, but one day Most of it was damaged inside.
"Yes, several strongholds in the city were all cleaned up, and we happened to go out to escape." The person who opened the mouth replied, "My lord, is there a traitor in the team...?"
"That's right, someone must have confessed everyone's whereabouts, and Jin Xia's counterattack came so quickly!" The others angrily said.
"Not necessarily." Pelican shook his head. "Our opponent is an alchemist. It is not surprising that if there are enemies who are good at slamming, they can't keep the secret. If there are brothers who confess, can we still meet again using secret words? I've already been wiped out by others."
The five of them fell silent.
After a while, someone asked, "My lord, what should we do next? The funds have been collected by the other party. Will we act again after the Privy Council issues new silver?"
"We don’t know how long it will take to wait for the people over there to contact us. The rumors of the food disaster have finally spread, and we must not let this fire go out!" Pelican cut the railway, "The food shop is the next goal. Especially those shops where the grain farms have been closed-if they can be destroyed, the panic fire will be burned more vigorously!"
"There are now a large number of guards in the grain shop. With our people, I'm afraid we can't rush in, right?" the subordinate said suspiciously.
"Indeed. So I prepared this in advance."
Pelican put down the suitcase at hand and opened the lid.
I saw four bamboo tube-shaped things inside, each about the thickness of an arm, the main body is made of wood, and a metal rod is inserted into the head.
"Master Tan, what is this?" Everyone asked in surprise.
"Sky Thunder, a new thing made by the Ministry of Industry." Pelican picked up one of the "bamboo tubes" and briefly introduced, "Just pull out the pull ring on the copper rod, and then press the copper rod into the tube. , It can send out a shocking explosion, which can burn everything in the range, and a grain shop is naturally no longer a problem!"
"You haven't mentioned it to us before...there is such a sharp thing!"
"If I mentioned it, can it stay?" Pelican snorted coldly, "Because it is a new thing, it can only play an unexpected role at this time."
He took a deep breath and stared at the people, "Listen well, I know that the entire White River City is probably under the enemy's surveillance. This action is extremely dangerous, and it is very likely that there will be no return, but This is also a good opportunity to serve the court! I have written down all the things that happened here and handed them to the messenger, so you don’t have to worry about your achievements being buried."
Of course, there is another reason for this-if you leave the operation area without receiving instructions, it will definitely be a stain on the spy career if you are engaged in an adult’s ears. It is guaranteed that it will also affect your family. Unwilling to see the results.
One of his subordinates hesitated, "My lord, I am not greedy for life and fear of death, but...is this really useful?"
"What do you mean?" The pelican frowned.
"I heard a new message on my way here, which was spread by the person from the branch office." The person paused, "Jinxia City not only dispatched a relief convoy, but also a cargo ship full of food. Coming to Baihe City, I expect to arrive this afternoon. And...this is just the beginning of assistance."
"The beginning of aid-what does it mean?"
"If I understand correctly, they will send at least one ship a day to transport food until the food shortage is over."
's words made the scene silent.
"How is it possible?" Pelican stared after a while, "Jinxia City is not a grain-producing area, so how can there be so much grain for others to eat!? Even if it wants to protect White River City, what about Anshen City? What about Ming County? It can never keep everyone!"
Any normal ruler can understand what the food shortage is all about. If you can’t feed everyone, this input is equivalent to pure waste. As long as the gap remains, the part that is about to starve to death is doomed There will be a turmoil. At this time, the correct approach is to keep the stability of Jinxia City, not to let gaps appear in the city!
The consequence of rain and dew exposure is to make turmoil sweep across Shenzhou.
Unless--they really have enough food to support the entire territory of Shenzhou!
The Pelican certainly wouldn't believe this.
Jinxia is Yancheng, and it is not a big food producer. Even its own food consumption needs to be supplied by the surrounding Gaoshan County. It is undoubtedly a dream to avoid this famine!
If all this is just a slow-down strategy, he should probably find a way to break the enemy's plan.
"This way..." Pelican made a decision and said, "We split up, you go blow up the grain shop, and I will destroy Jinxia's cargo ship."
"My lord, are you sure you want to do this? The guards around the cargo ship must be much tighter than the grain shops!"
"Yes, maybe the alchemists who wiped out the brothers will also appear near the pier."
"So only I can do this by myself." Pelican patted his shoulders, "What kind of life the family can live in the future depends on our fight."
……
Having said that, the Pelican did not intend to die with the enemy in his arms.
If you can survive to enjoy the honor, it is naturally better than dying in a foreign land.
, he has gone through more than ten times~IndoMTL.com~ to complete the task and survive every time, naturally, not by a brutal force, but by careful planning and calculation.
Compared to White River City, which is full of wild cats, it is easier to successfully deal with cargo ships if the latter is not a rumor spread by the branch office.
After all, as long as it is a ship, it must be docked at the dock to unload, and the inland wharf has always been crowded with people, making it easier for him to get involved. In addition, the sky-shaking thunder will be delayed for a while from triggering to detonation, and there is still about five breaths of space after throwing it out. By then, the wide river is undoubtedly his best escape route.
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the rumored Jinxia grain ship appeared in the Pelican's field of vision.
No one reminded that there was no clear flag on the ship, but as soon as he saw the outline of the cargo ship, he realized that the ship was coming from Jinxia.
because he has never seen such a weird sailboat.
It is not just him, all the people who noticed the ship were shocked, and there was an endless stream of discussions. The ice-forged ship, no sails and oars, and the black biped beasts on board are enough to make people talk about it for a long time.
The Pelican realized for the first time that the opponent he faced, or the opponent facing the Privy Council of Gyeonggi, might be an enemy that cannot be taken into account.
"It's fish—the food they brought is actually fish!" someone exclaimed.
The pelican also saw it. On the large and simple deck of the ice boat, there are several hill-like marine fishes piled up. They are mixed with ice slag, and they are fresh as if they had just been salvaged from the sea.
