Magus Tech Chapter 1422: Incoming
Latest URL: Could it be that Sharin used soldiers like this to guard the border? It's really poor enough, it's not the same as the rumors at all, and sure enough... some rumors can't be completely believed... Xia Zuo saw it, and felt amused in his heart. He turned his mouth, looked down at the old soldier, and asked Said: "What are you doing here?"
"We are performing our duties. First, prevent unknown troops from invading, second, prevent criminals from entering the sarin, third, prevent illegal businessmen from smuggling goods, and fourth..." The old soldier held his long gun tightly and said, With a tense expression and a blunt tone, Xia Zuo doubted that the other party knew the meaning of what he said, "...Seven, check whether the entry documents are legal and complete, eight..."
"Okay, stop!" Shaar interrupted the old man's recitation, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why, according to what you said, if people like me want to enter the sarin, we have to hand in a pass Is it okay? Otherwise, you can only turn your head and go back?"
"Actually...you have already entered sarin, so no matter whether you want to go back or not, you must submit legal and complete entry documents, otherwise you will enter illegally." .
"Ha!" Xia Zuo couldn't help opening his mouth and laughing, looking at the two soldiers, one old and one young, and then at the five hundred cavalry around him, he felt as if he was listening to the funniest joke. The two mustaches on his lips trembled.
"Did I hear it wrong, or did you say it wrong? Just the two of you, you want to check me? What if I refuse?" After laughing for a long time, Xiaya restrained his smile and asked the two soldiers road.
The expression of the old soldier changed, and he took a step back and said, "My lord, please don't make things difficult for us, we are also doing business as usual, please cooperate..."
"Hahaha, hahaha." Hearing what the old soldier said, Xia Zuo couldn't help laughing again, thinking it was really funny. After laughing for a few seconds, he turned his head to look at the soldiers beside him, with a serious expression, and said, "What are you still doing, take these two down."
"Yes!" The soldier obeyed, and immediately rushed towards the two Sarin soldiers.
Two Sarin soldiers tried to resist, but the old and the young were really powerless, and they were overturned to the ground in a few seconds, and the spears used as weapons were kicked more than ten meters away.
The Zhuang master soldier pressed the two Shalin soldiers to the ground, looked at Xia Zuo and asked for instructions: "My lord, are you going to kill me?"
"That's not necessary." Xia Zuo waved his hand, "We're here to visit Shalin, not to invade. We've killed a bit too much. Bind up these two bad-ass, low-level criminals, and throw them away." Here, let them fend for themselves, and then we continue on our way."
"By the way, before throwing it here, remember to knock it out." Xia Zuo added earnestly, "I don't want them to find a way to untie the rope as soon as we leave, and then give Ya It will be very difficult for us to keep this operation secret if Tran City leaks the news."
"Yes, my lord." Master Zhuang nodded, and dragged the two Sarin soldiers towards the stone building.
The young soldier struggled violently and kept shouting, as if cursing: "If you dare to do this, you will definitely end badly. This is an illegal invasion, and you are also attacking the sentries, and the regular army of Sarin knew about it." Yes, I will definitely regret it. Sarin’s regular troops will definitely tear you apart and let you understand that Sarin is not easy to mess with..."
But the yelling, accompanied by a muffled grunt, stopped abruptly.
Afterwards, the strong master soldier who entered the stone building came out and reported to Xia Zuo: "My lord, everything is done."
"Well, let's go." Xia Zuo didn't say much, and waved his hand, signaling the team to start again, heading towards the depths of the sand forest.
…
Soon, the team marched for several miles, and sure enough, just as Xia Zuohuang's men said, the terrain began to undulate, and the existence of the outpost could no longer be seen.
"Tack tap..."
Riding on horseback, Xia Zuo glanced back at the direction of the previous outpost, and asked the yellow-clothed subordinates, "We have entered the sand forest now, right?"
"Yes, my lord."
"However, we didn't encounter anyone's obstruction. It seems that there is a big gap between Shalin and what he said, and the vigilance of the army is not very high." Xia Zuo said sarcastically, after thinking for a while, He added, "By the way, from now on, we will send two investigation teams of ten to our front, left and right. The investigation distance is three miles, and we will send people to report the investigation content in turn to determine whether the surrounding area is safe."
Huangyi's subordinates were puzzled when they heard this: "My lord, didn't you say... Shalin is not very vigilant, and no one stopped us, so why do we still do this?"
"Sarin's vigilance is indeed not high, but my vigilance cannot be as low as theirs. What should be on guard is still to be on guard." Xia Zuo said, "This time I will try my best to reach the city of Atlanta as far as possible. It has the effect of 'surprise attack'."
"Uh..."
"Okay, let's do it."
"Yes." Huang Yi's subordinates nodded and began to select members of the investigation team.
After a while, six teams of ten people were sent out in three directions, and the army continued to march while on guard.
…
Go, go, go.
After a short break in the middle, the soldiers ate some dry rations and fed some rations to the horses. Then Xia Zuo directed the team to continue approaching the center of Sarin—Atlantic City.
According to the map, Xia Zuo deliberately avoided all large and small population gathering points along the way, trying to maintain the secrecy of his progress.
But in the afternoon, he became a little anxious.
Not because of any problems encountered, but because it went so well.
Yes, it went really well.
In his covert actions, except for the outpost he encountered at the beginning, he never encountered any other living people. Although he avoided the gathering places of population, he didn't even meet a farmer in the farmland, a fisherman in the pond, a hunter in the forest, or a pedestrian on the road, which is too strange.
He couldn't help wondering if there would be no one in Sarin, and he had an urge to check out the population gathering spots on the map.
However, rationality prevented him from this impulse. He gently pressed the beard on his lips, reached out and took out a flat egg-shaped creation from his pocket, opened it, glanced at the beating needle on it, and confirmed it. time.
Speaking of which, the thing called "Golden Needle Pocket Watch" in his hand was mass-produced and handed down from Shalin, and it has gone through the hands of many merchants. After it was placed in Shaar's shop, it was already a Not cheap.
Because this thing doesn't seem to be liked by the new emperor, it was once banned by law. But it couldn’t stand the fact that it was exquisite and easy to use, and it kept spreading on the black market. In the end, there was no way, and the ban was lifted, and heavy taxes were imposed instead, and tax evaders were severely punished.
The "Golden Needle Pocket Watch" in his hand was originally a complete batch of 30 pieces, which were confiscated by Char officials from tax evading smugglers. After being confiscated, the pocket watch did not enter the national treasury, but returned to the market for sale through some means. During this process, he obtained a piece at a low price through internal channels, and has been using it until now, and he is quite proficient. So with just a glance, he knew that it had been several hours since he entered the border of Sarin.
And the more this happened, the more uneasy he felt.
Since Sha Lin could mass-produce exquisite things like "Golden Needle Pocket Watches", no matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be as bad as he guessed.
Absolutely not...
But if Sharin wasn't so miserable, why hasn't he been aware of him until now, and why hasn't he encountered any large-scale military strongholds or patrol soldiers when he went to such a deep place?
This is the entire border... no, is the entire border undefended?
Thinking about this, Xia Zuo couldn't help pressing his beard again, and after thinking for a while, he ordered again to the men in yellow clothes: "Send an additional ten-person investigation team to the front, left and right. The detection distance has been expanded to five miles. In addition, three ten-man detection teams were sent to the rear, and no matter whether they found anything, they were asked to report every ten minutes."
"My lord, you..."
"Go!"
"Yes." Huang Yi's subordinates looked at Xia Zuo's ugly face, didn't say much, and lowered their heads resolutely.
…
Not long after, six new ten-member scouting teams were sent out, and all the scouting forces had taken up more than one-fifth of the main force, covering four complete directions: front, back, left, and right.
It stands to reason that Xia Zuo can rest assured.
But Xia Zuo didn't ~IndoMTL.com~ instead, he became even more anxious.
Agitated and marching for half an hour, the team started the second trimming.
People are not hungry, but horses need to eat special horse food again, otherwise they will not be able to support the next long and long distance.
The whole team stopped to rest in an open space, and the surrounding area was quiet, only the chirping of insects and birds.
Listening to the voice full of field breath, Xia Zuo was in a trance for a while, and couldn't help wondering if he was being overly cautious.
At this moment, he heard a soldier on guard exclaim: "What is that?!"
"Huh?" Xia Zuo looked quickly, then narrowed his eyes, and saw several black spots approaching rapidly in the distant sky.
What is it?
