Invincible little uncle

Chapter 320 31. Empty Country
For King Shenwu, it is a very leisurely feeling to take a boat across the sea even though he can fly across the sea or run under the sea.

Being a good person is here.

This time, breaking through the Fusang sea area was extremely smooth, and it can be said that there was no obstacle.

The sagittal pointed formation directly broke through this area, and warships lined up on the winding Fusang West Sea coastline.

The great Zhou soldiers who landed quickly equipped with weapons, and stood on the beach in summer, the sand under their feet was hot, and the green trees on the seashore in the distance were not lush.

Therefore, Bai Qi, the leader, stood at the bow of the boat and knew that Fusang had no defense at all without even analyzing it.

Because in this sparse forest, there is no way to hide people.

Touching the silver lion head on the sword hilt at his waist, Bai Qi pondered quietly.

He thought about a battle at sea, an ambush after landing, and even Fusang's use of poison gas warfare and organ warfare, all of which he had considered and prepared for.

But this lack of resistance surprised him a little.

"General, please instruct."

Vanguard general Wang Tao came to inquire.

Bai Qi still didn't move, just rubbed his chin, squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the empty forest in the distance, seemed to be distracted, and seemed to be thinking, in short, it was unpredictable.

In the eyes covered by the grayish black hair, it seemed that a pool of clear water had been muddied, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Send scouts! Explore in ten directions."

"Bowmen with swords and shields are on standby at any time, ready to respond to scouts."

"Set up camp on the beach and do a good job of fortification."

"The battleship stays on a single cable, does not drop anchor, and is ready to stay away from the beach at any time."

"The supply ship and the Sparrow Tuanzi where the Shenwu King is staying will be parked near the sea and not docked for the time being."

Bai Qi issued a series of orders in an orderly manner.

The vanguard general was stunned. The attack on Fusang was obviously a crushing trend. General Bai was so cautious, wasn't it a little too much?
"General, give me [-] troops, and I will take down all the surrounding towns within a week!"

The vanguard general patted his chest and said.

"Why?"

Bai Qi's eyes remained calm, just looking at the vanguard general.

"Fight in one go, then decline again, and exhaust three times! My Great Zhou Heavenly Soldiers came here taking advantage of the power of the sky, so naturally we should break through the surrounding cities in one fell swoop!"

The vanguard general Wang Tao is not afraid.

Few of those fighting on the battlefield are afraid of the officer.

What's more, Wang Tao also had his own chance. During the western expedition, he found a gourd at the bottom of a certain cliff. There were three flying knives hidden in this gourd, which were extremely powerful.

Move as you like, you can shoot and kill the enemy.

This is his hole card, and everyone thinks it is a gourd for drinking, but no one knows that it is his bottom card.

"General Wang, when something goes wrong, there must be a demon. If the time is right, a snake can swallow an elephant. Don't be reckless."

Bai Qi thought for a while, and then raised his voice: "Build five layers of fortifications!!"

Wang Tao was stunned
Is this General Bai too cowardly? I just told him that he would go all out, but instead he wanted to make the docking place into a tortoise shell.

This... is too aggrieved, as if deliberately against him.

"Hey!!"

The vanguard general Wang Tao sighed heavily, then turned and left, the chain links on the armor squeezed, making a metallic sound.

Bai Qi looked thoughtfully at his hurriedly leaving figure.

Ten teams of scouts were sent out, and the crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers responded.

Night fell quickly.

In this foreign land, the stars, the moon and the moon are the same as those of the Great Zhou.

Just a strange red color.

The red color is caused by the clouds and mist that are as thin as a veil at night, covering the bright moon.

Sparrow Tuanzi.

Jasmine looked at King Shenwu who was sitting on the bow, and asked softly, "My lord, do you need anything else?"

This Sparrow Tuanzi is different from the other battleships, it is completely for King Shenwu to go sightseeing.

There are only two guards on board, with white goat masks and red-spotted faces.

The rest turned out to be maids, cooks or something like that.

The people are all selected by the Queen Mother, and there are also trials for this purpose.

Anyway, the little empress dowager of the Great Zhou had a firm belief: King Shenwu was a fan all his life, so he didn't explain.

Xia Guang looked at the black monster-like sea in front of him. The waves were slightly undulating, but they contained infinite power. These were real ocean currents, not conceptual rivers, dream rivers, and death mother rivers. .

This is the world.

"Put a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus bar, put another three bottles, and hang it into the sea with a rope to freeze three sticks of incense before taking it up."

"Yes, my lord."

Jasmine bowed and stepped back.

Looking at the solid fortifications on the coast in the distance, and the dark and lusterless mainland in the distance, Xia Guang couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly.

The next evening.

Ten scout armies returned.

There were no casualties.

The scout chief boarded the ship along the long plank and came to report what he saw and heard to Bai Qi.

Bai Qi listened quietly, asking a few questions from time to time.

These scouts are all experienced people, so he can trust them naturally.

But the information obtained was incredible.

During most of the day's journey, all the towns I saw were empty.

empty city.

empty town.

One of the scouts even used "doesn't look like there are signs of living people", which made Marshal Bai frowned even more.

Different from others, Bai Qi knows that there are monsters in the world.

The monster even fought against King Shenwu more than ten years ago, and he had also done research.

But even the demon could not explain the situation.

"Explore again!! This time the scope is expanded."

Bai Qi gave instructions.

"General, why don't you give me [-] soldiers and horses, and I'll go to attack, and if I make a wave, everything will come to light. There is no need to be so cautious."

Seeing this situation, Wang Tao said it again.

Bai Qi waved his hand: "Wait a little longer."

three days later.

The scout returned, still unscathed, and after the report, it was the same as the first time.

Just one word: empty.

Empty, like a silent country, there is no trace of living people, not even a corpse has been found, the gray Fusang buildings seem to be bathed in eternal white mist, before dawn or dusk, it starts to fog .

Thin as gauze, with some strange blood red flowing.

"Blood red?"

Bai Qi grasped the key words, looked intently at the repelling scout, and hurriedly asked: "Does it have a smell? After inhaling, is there any discomfort?"

The ten scouts all said no, they ate well and were healthy, they didn't need to be checked, they didn't need to be quarantined, and it didn't matter if they ate three more bowls of white rice.

But in vain, the doctor on board the ship still inspected the scouts.

Half a day later, Bai Qi sat on the top floor of the empty attic of the battleship, looking into the distance.

Behind him, the accompanying ship doctor was reporting the results.

Obviously this result is not simple, otherwise it would not be able to send everyone away.

"Doctor Zhen, you can speak now. Even if it's your guess, you still need to explain it to me."

"Yes!"

The accompanying ship's doctor pondered for a while, and said cautiously, "The scouts may have been parasitized by something, and strange transformations are taking place in their bodies, but these parasites are likely to produce paralysis in the body, making them The parasitized person doesn't know it and thinks everything is normal."

"How can Fusang be empty? How can there be such a ghost?"

Dr. Zhen hurriedly said: "General, I'm just guessing, and it must not be used as a basis. When I was studying medicine, my master once told me, 'If you are not sure, you should not make a conclusion. This is not what the doctor did'."

Bai Qi shook his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Doctor, you don't understand, this is not medical treatment. This is war."
