On October 4, after nearly a month's march, Tielong and many of Zhang Tie's disciples finally arrived at Pingsha Valley in Longxi County, Zhongzhou.
After the team entered Zhongzhou in mid to late September, everyone saw all the way, everywhere there were flying boats and airships flying from all directions in Taixia towards Zhongzhou, just the knight masters from all over Zhongzhou that the Iron Dragon encountered in the sky every day, there were three Sibo, and other knight masters who flew in the sky and patrolled the ground without identities, there were even more, Zhang Tie could almost meet one or twenty every day.
As for the combat airship, Zhang Tie and the others can see hundreds of them almost every day, combing the earth like a grate, as soon as there is a situation, the elite on the airship will be directly dropped from the airship, and the elite squads organized by the Taixia military and led by soldiers above the tenth level are enough to strangle a small group of bloody troops.
On the ground, garrisons transferred from all parts of Longxi County were to be set up in various places, armored vehicles and small war forts that had been temporarily assembled could be seen everywhere, and the bounty and torture that came from various states were even more crowded in the wilderness, encircling and hunting the remnants of the bloody people who had been beaten and scattered.
This is no longer a war, but a hunt.
Liu Xing and the others, who were marching on the ground, had to encounter several bounty combinations every day, and at the same time, they also happened to meet and cooperate with an elite squad of the Taixia military to encircle and suppress a small group of bloody people in the field.
Seeing such a scene, Zhang Tie knew that after more than a month, under the heavy hands of all parties in Taixia, the bloody rebellion in Zhongzhou was almost going to subside.
This bloody rebellion was caused by a wildfire that suddenly exploded, burning fast and extinguishing as quickly as possible.
More than 100,000 ninth-level blood people are terrifying, and on other subcontinents, this force is comparable to the demon army led by the demon commander at the beginning, which is completely subversive.
But the most fatal point of these bloody armies is that there is no knight master to lead, lack of high-end combat power, once these bloody people are gathered together, they are easy to become the target and target of knight slaughter, there is no power to fight back at all, it is easiest to be scattered, and it is difficult to form the joint force that the army has.
Any army, once it is dispersed, can only become a rabble and a rogue, which is why Zhang Tie saw in the memories of those bloody people that they were constantly splitting into small groups of bloody people.
These bloody people appear anywhere, although they can also cause great harm, but as long as they show their heads, what awaits them is bound to be surrounded from all sides and enemies from all sides, and this is what determines their fate, which is bound to be short-lived and difficult to last.
Another point that also accelerated the destruction of the blood people, that is, although these blood faces are no different from the Chinese, they can't speak, and the facial features of their eyes can also make it very easy to distinguish their identities, which is like a natural friend or foe identification system, which makes it difficult for them to confuse and hide.
On the evening of October 3, Zhang Tie and his Tielong set up camp in the wilderness more than 400 kilometers away from Pingsha Valley, and that night, the sky became overcast, and it rained heavily.
Last night, because of the heavy rain, for safety reasons, the flying boat that originally landed on the river had hovered from a height of about one meter above the ground to a height of ten meters above the ground and hovered in the air, and early the next morning, Zhang Tie came to the command room on the top floor of the flying boat, and looked at the weather outside through the crystal protective wall in the command room.
The torrential rain crashed on the flying boat, and it was impossible to hear it inside the flying boat, but through the crystal protective wall, you could still see the scene outside.
A gray piece between heaven and earth, the visibility is very low, yesterday was quite clear and the river is now completely muddy, and the water level has skyrocketed, the crystal protective wall has been blocked by the rain curtain, countless raindrops fall, converged into a trickle on the crystal protective wall, after opening the wiper, you can clearly see the outside scene, the water in the diversion trough on the side of the head of the flying boat is like a waterfall more than ten meters high from the diversion mouth to flow down, draw a white line, fall on the ground below.
Although there have been a few rains in the past month, none of them have been as heavy as today.
"Tell Liu Xing that this month's marching trial is over, there is no need to go out today, we will fly straight to Pingsha Valley" After thinking about it for a few seconds, Zhang Tie turned his head and asked someone to inform Liu Xing and his apprentices.
This month's marching trial, Zhang Tie's goal has been achieved, his disciples now have the appearance of the same door, all of them are twisted into a rope, the team atmosphere is very good, Liu Xing has also established his reputation as a senior brother, everything that should be exercised has been exercised, everything that should be familiar has been familiarized, and what should have been experienced has also been experienced, the heads of the bloody people have brought back 134, even his two nephews, in the last ten days, can grit their teeth and follow the team to complete the trek, Zhang Chengxu has a ruthlessness, these days, As long as the head of the bloody person was cut off in their team, he brought it back on his back, and Zhang Chengze was a little stuffy, although he was not as ruthless as his brother, but he could also endure hardships, after coming back these days, Zhang Tie knew that this little guy insisted on polishing the bright spot in his room for two hours every day before going to sleep.
If it was a peaceful era now, Zhang Tie would certainly not want his two nephews to be exposed to these bloody things at such a young age, but now it is a holy war, eleven or twelve-year-old boys, even if they don't go to the battlefield in person, they can still get in touch with some, if the children of the Zhang family faint when they see blood, how to protect the industry of Jinwu City and Jinwu Merchants in the future.
When Zhang Tie's order came, Liu Xing had just adjusted the personnel distribution of the two squads, so that a few people who were slightly injured yesterday were concentrated in the rear team, and everyone had just put on a field anti-water poncho, Zhang Tie's order was brought by a guard beside Bai Suxian, everyone was slightly stunned at first, but after confirming that it was not a joke, everyone cheered at the same time, screaming and jumping It's finally over.
To be honest, for more than a month, everyone has worked very hard, but no one complained, many people were gritting their teeth to hold on, this sudden order, for everyone, is like a student trapped in the school suddenly heard that from today onwards, no more classes, everyone has a holiday, it is simply a surprise from heaven.
"Ah, I can finally sleep again" Zhu Dabiao, who had lost a lot of weight, heard the news, took off his field anti-water poncho as quickly as possible, and walked towards his room.
"Da Biao, where are you going?"
Sun Zhan shouted.
"Senior Brother Sun, I'll go back to the room to make up for sleep first" Zhu Dabiao, who was still energetic just now, couldn't help but yawn when he said this.
"It's still time to catch up on sleep, it doesn't take an hour to get to Pingsha Valley here" "It's okay, half an hour is also half an hour, a quarter in the morning is worth a thousand gold, Senior Brother Sun, you don't know, how much weight I have lost in the past month" Zhu Dabiao said, and pinched the circle of meat on his waist through the field marching uniform he was wearing, and made a painful expression.
Several female disciples laughed.
"You're still called thin, every time you hit prey in the wild, you eat three people's portions," Sun Zhan muttered.
"If I have a chance in the future, I will invite Senior Brother Sun to eat enough."
Not only Zhu Dabiao was hurriedly walking to his room, but several female disciples who heard the news, after cheering for a while, also went back to their rooms together.
"Senior Sister Zhou, do you want to go back to make up for sleep," Sun Zhan shouted.
Among the seven disciples of Zhang Tie who first ordered the dragon, Sun Zhan was the most active and humorous, so he was also the most popular among all the disciples and could get along with everyone.
"Senior Brother Sun, let's go back and change our clothes," Senior Sister Zhou, who was a little shy, said with a blushing face.
Sun Zhan laughed, "Senior Sister Zhou, which junior brother does she like, tell me, I'll be a matchmaker for you" "Senior Brother Sun, you're so bad, I won't tell you" was teased by Sun Zhan, Senior Sister Zhou's face turned even redder, and she didn't say much, so she left, a few spicy and bold female disciples, and also threw a few white eyes over, anyway, everyone knows that Senior Brother Sun is a slippery mouth, he is not a bad person, and he will not turn his face with people for trivial things.
The female disciples among the 121 people walked away almost in the blink of an eye, Sun Zhan was still wondering, a hand slapped heavily on Sun Zhan's shoulder, without turning his head, Sun Zhan knew that it was Ma Kuicheng, when Ma Kuicheng's big hand fell on Sun Zhan's shoulder, his voice also quietly reached Sun Zhan's ears, "Don't you know that for all women, beauty is the first, life is second, for more than a month, each of these junior sisters has been wearing the same field marching uniform as a man every day, and they have long been suffocated." , especially when I see our Bai Shiniang every day like a blooming peony by the master's side every day, if you dare not let them dress up and change their clothes at this time, they dare to fight with you" Sun Zhan was enlightened.
Zhang Tie also heard the happy cheers of his disciples.
Hearing the cheers, Zhang Tie suddenly remembered the joy that he wanted to jump up and cheer when he was in the second grade of the Seventh Boys' High School in Heiyan City, and one day when he suddenly heard the news that the school was on a one-week holiday to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Andaman City-State Alliance How long has it been since I've experienced this simple and direct joy?
At that time, he had no money, and he only had a few copper plates on his body at most every day, at that time, he was lowly in strength, and he fantasized every day that he would one day ignite the bright point of the Divine Palace, at that time, there was no woman by his side, he was just quietly in love with the goddess Teacher Dina in the minds of all the boys in the seventh man.
But at that time, he could have this simple and direct joy and happiness at any time, whether it was for a few more days off at school, or because his brother suddenly brought him a worthless little gift from the army, a new dress or a new pair of leather shoes, it could make him happy for many days, and the whole person was happy, and felt that life was full of sunshine Zhang Tie suddenly was in a trance, could it be that the so-called maturity and growth are people who can no longer have this simple and direct happiness At this time, the flying boat had already started, and it was flying through layers of rain curtains, flying higher and higher, towards Pingsha Valley.
Behind him came the sound of footsteps and a dark scent.
Zhang Tie turned his head, looked at Bai Suxian, and asked a question, "You say, is it true that the higher a person stands, the less real happiness he has":
