Chapter 650: Creating a Plague

On the eighth day after capturing the city lord's mansion, the lingering Xianbei tribe's coalition forces suddenly turned on the rush mode, regardless of casualties and costs, and stormed towards Longcheng.

The Xianbei army with a sudden change in style abruptly frightened Zhao Yun, who was leading troops outside to carry out harassment tactics, and returned in a panic. After all, a mere 20,000 silver dragon cavalry faced the more than five million Xianbei coalition forces that suddenly went mad, and Zhao Zilong had to be cowardly. .

It took less than a day for Xianbei to go crazy and occupy the outer wall of Longcheng. Although there are reasons why the Pingzhou Army voluntarily gave up the outer city walls, the suddenly berserk Xianbei Army's combat power is still eye-catching.

"Have you figured out the reason for Xianbei's sudden madness?" Seeing Chen Guan walking quickly with a solemn expression, Shang Ji hurriedly went up to meet him, and asked anxiously.

"It's basically clear. The news that the shamanism treasury was occupied by our army has been exposed. It is rumored among the Xianbei coalition that our army has monopolized a wealth of 5 billion gold. At present, the entire Xianbei coalition has fallen into a state of frenzy."

Shang Ji was silent, he had already expected the news to be revealed. The only pity is that the exposure time is too early. He had discovered before that the Xianbei coalition forces were not very enthusiastic about counterattacking Longcheng, and Shang Ji had expected to drag each other for more than half a month like this.

However, wishes are generally just wishes. In the end, the shamanism couldn't resist the pressure and took the initiative to expose the fact that the treasury was robbed.

As early as when Qiqin appeared in Longcheng to help Pingzhou clean up the city, the shaman realized that the treasury had been lost. It's just that they, as the custodians of huge funds, really dare not release this news easily. Who knows if those nobles who have lost huge assets will suddenly transfer their hatred to Shamanism?

However, paper could not contain the fire after all, Dragon City fell, and gossip about the loss of the treasury was flying everywhere. The heads of nobles from various ministries came to inquire one after another, and the shamanism finally couldn't hold on, and took the initiative to announce that the treasury was occupied by merchants.

At this moment, the Xianbei coalition forces, who were originally holding a soy sauce mentality, suddenly went crazy, and marched towards Longcheng desperately, vowing to take back the treasury.

Five billion gold is enough to drive anyone crazy!

Not only the current tribal coalition forces, the news is still spreading around at a flying speed. The tribes who originally shirked for various reasons immediately made a 180-degree turn. Whoever refuses to let me respond to the Sirius summoning order is me Enemy of life and death!

It is estimated that at least five million Xianbei troops are approaching Longcheng. Coupled with the Xianbei coalition forces already under Longcheng City, the total number of enemies that Shang Ji needs to face has officially exceeded the 10 million mark!

Of course, a large part of them is too far away, and even if the battle is over, they may not be able to arrive smoothly. The total enemy force that Shang Ji has a chance to encounter is about 8 million, and the force ratio is very different.

It should be noted that these 8 million are regular troops, generally around Tier 3. As for the number of militia volunteers temporarily brought in, it is impossible to calculate in detail. It is estimated that the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces does not know how many volunteers there are. A large part of the Longcheng residents expelled by Shang Ji were forcibly recruited to join the volunteer (cannon fodder) team.

However, a large part of the volunteers escape every day, and the morale of the forced volunteers is extremely low. If there is no special military supervision and supervision, none of them will be left in an instant.

A group of Xianbei nobles in gorgeous costumes stood at the main gate of the east gate of Longcheng, looking at the silent outer city like ghosts, with greedy eyes flashing from time to time in their eyes.

Priest Quan, who took over as the high priest of shamanism, looked sluggish, looking at Longcheng helplessly, feeling extremely sad in his heart.

Yesterday, he was formally stripped of his position as supreme commander of the coalition forces.

When he broke out of the siege, there were only 20,000 cathars and less than 10,000 templars around him. Being able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces is entirely dependent on the power of shamanism.

However, after the loss of the vault was revealed, the prestige of shamanism plummeted. The various tribal armies desperately counterattacked Dragon City, not to help the shamans find the relics.

After more than a dozen major tribal leaders discussed it for a while, Priest Quan was emptied immediately, and then the position of commander of the coalition forces was not retained. Now he can only silently watch in the corner as everyone unscrupulously discusses how to divide the wealth,

Disregard shamanism as nothing.

In front of money, how much is faith worth?

"No matter how much you want, my Fenglei tribe will ask for 20%, who will not accept it?"

"Eat shit! 20%? You don't take a pee to see what you look like, and dare to ask for 20%?"

"I dispatched the most troops, and I got the most points!"

"Hehe, you have the nerve to say that you have the most troops when you dispatched hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder? Why don't you count all the sheep in the tribe?"

"Our Huofeng tribe has sacrificed more than 20,000 warriors, we must be compensated!"

"Don't think that you big tribes can monopolize wealth, our Red Wolf Alliance will not let you bully us!"

In the hall of the East Gate City Gate, a group of high-ranking Xianbei nobles were chattering like vendors in a vegetable market, discussing the division of combat power.

A group of people completely tore off their usual disguise, their faces were red and their ears were red and their saliva was flying everywhere, and they refused to give an inch to their interests. If he hadn't maintained the most basic rationality, he would have staged a martial arts exercise long ago.

Priest Quan looked at this scene sadly, not only was powerless to stop it, but even had to maintain order for them. This farce of looting property was a blow to a regime that even surpassed the fall of Dragon City itself.

Even if Shangji is successfully expelled, shamanism is basically over, and even Xianbei as an alliance regime is in jeopardy.

"Report! It's not good!"

Just as everyone was arguing, a sudden and hasty announcement silenced everyone's voices.

"My lords, the Han people launched a night attack on our army camp. Our army was caught off guard by a sneak attack, and the camp fell into chaos and suffered heavy losses!"

"What? Night attack? They... how dare they?"

Hearing that the Pingzhou army launched a night attack, everyone immediately felt a little inconceivable.

The strength of the Pingzhou Army is not a secret. There are more than 300,000 people (the undead army is a secret). Surrounded by millions of troops, they don't want to escape, but dare to initiate a night attack. Are they crazy?

"How much did our army lose?"

"Only about 20,000 were killed by the enemy, but the night attack caused the roar of the camp, and the number of troops trampled to death in chaos was no less than 100,000."

"Where are the other party's casualties??"

The Xianbei soldier who reported the letter hesitated for a moment, and said in a short-term manner: "Not enough...less than one thousand!"

Hearing this, the nobles of the coalition forces immediately had the urge to vomit blood. Nima, according to this casualty ratio, it is impossible to wipe out the Pingzhou Army even if the coalition forces are dead!

A beautiful night attack after the coalition forces entered the city completely woke them up. The Pingzhou army is not a sheep at the mercy of others. If they want to swallow huge wealth, they can't do without real materials.

"Hahaha, my brother fought this battle beautifully, and he fought the prestige of our Pingzhou army!" In the night, Shang Ji personally greeted the triumphant Liu Yi at the gate of the inner city, and night raids are naturally Liu Yi's forte. Knowing Liu Yi's brilliant results through the battle report, Shang Ji couldn't help being a little excited. The second phase of the battle was off to a good start, which is very beneficial for the subsequent battles.

"It's just a fluke. The enemy's defenses are lax, and it can even be said that they are completely unprepared. Twenty thousand ghost knights plus 10,000 death knights, combined with five hundred flying phoenix fire knights to harass in the air, it is not surprising to achieve such results. Only in the future will Xianbei People will definitely strengthen their vigilance, and it will not be easy to achieve such a result again.”

Liu Yi smiled modestly, dismounted and said.

"It's okay, presumably after this lesson, the Xianbei people will definitely have some scruples. We only need to persist for another six days before we can retreat. Brother Yu is already very satisfied with such a result."

During the day, the Xianbei coalition forces that captured the outer city walls were extremely arrogant, as if the Pingzhou army in Dragon City had already become meat on the chopping board, and Liu Yi's night attack could be regarded as giving them some color.

After assisting Liu Yi to arrange the troops who went out to attack at night, Shang Ji quietly took Liu Yi to a relatively remote camp, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, how is the matter that the foolish brother told you?"

Liu Yi also looked around with a guilty conscience, and nodded slightly when he saw no one around.

"Is our people safe?"

"Don't worry, except for the 10,000 undead army, I have already ordered the Feifeng Huoqi and the ghost ghost to swallow all of them, and I guarantee that there will be no problem."

"Well, I will send an order to the whole army to pay close attention to abnormalities, and report immediately if there are signs of plague. We have a lot of stocks to dispel the plague. If it is impossible, each person will take one dose per day."

"That's great. We must be very careful about this matter, and we must not be careless. Even if we escape successfully, we cannot return to the army immediately to avoid bringing the plague back to Junyi, let alone Pingzhou."

"Well, brother Yu knows, brother worked hard tonight, brother should go to rest earlier. There will definitely be a big battle tomorrow, so be careful."

Tonight Liu Yi led his troops to attack at night, deterring the Xianbei coalition forces, and boosting morale was only one of the purposes. The other purpose was to take advantage of the chaos and throw plague pills at the Xianbei army!

Shang Ji is confident that he will last until Dragon City is destroyed, after all, there are only six days left, and it can be delayed. However, Shang Ji didn't have the confidence to break through the Xianbei people's obstacles and succeed in class.

It is entirely conceivable that once Dragon City is destroyed, the surrounding Xianbei coalition forces will only become crazier!

Under the siege and interception of tens of millions of troops, leading 300,000 troops to break through the encirclement of 20,000 miles and return to Xianbei to the east to join Zhang He, this task is as difficult as heaven.

That being the case, Shang Ji had to use some special means.

Nothing is more suitable for the current situation than Pandan. Tens of millions of troops gather here outside the city, and the army density is frighteningly high. With so many troops gathering to fight, it is very easy for a plague to break out. Shang Ji continued to push the flames behind, and it was almost predictable that a plague sweeping across Mobei would break out soon.

The gap between the Pingzhou Army and the Xianbei Army is not only reflected in combat power and equipment, but also the level of medical treatment is eight blocks away from the Xianbei Army. Once the plague breaks out, although the combat power of the Pingzhou army will be affected, at least the basic combat power can be guaranteed.

Replaced by the Xianbei army, even if they are not defeated on a large scale, Shang Ji underestimated them!

Originally, Shang Ji did not intend to use such extreme tactics. After all, the plague is uncontrollable and it is easy to be backlashed. But money touches people's hearts, and the golden coins not only made the Xianbei coalition army crazy, but also made Shang Ji put aside all his worries!
