Beast Throne

Chapter 496 Migration
The first stop went smoothly. After eliminating the barbarians who were almost sure to be able to block the attack, the hussars led by Gailou stopped serving as a reserve team, and split into two wings to attack the barbarians who would not retreat.

Although the barbarians were too strong, their numbers were too small, only about a thousand, and they couldn't keep their heads when they were pinched back and forth.Especially the blue-eyed people led by Gailou are very good at archery. The barbarians have very hard heads, and they can stop after one or two arrows, but they can't hold three or four arrows.

And Gailou's blue-eyed group can shoot three consecutive arrows in an instant, and hit the same place at the same time.

Wu Tong really watched a scene completely. Wulantu only paid the price of less than ten deaths, and wiped out more than 1000 barbarians.These barbarians are really stupid. If they are injured, they only need to cross the defense line formed by the icebreaker turtles, and the barbarians will not chase after them. They can rest assured and boldly lie down and let the accompanying shaman treat them.

When the last barbarian was cut in half by Ulantu, all the soldiers roared to the sky and beat their chests to celebrate the victory, even women like Duo Luo and Duo Yan were no exception.The leather clothes of these two sisters are very strange. Those places that are stuck with dust or blood can fall off, and then grow back, keeping the state as white as snow. I don't know how to do it.

After a brief celebration, the shamans held a simple ceremony to worship the heavens. Those dead soldiers were wrapped in white veils and piled up together. After everyone prayed, Ulantu nodded to Dolo and kept on The snow fox with the scarf on the latter's neck finally regained consciousness and jumped off Duo Luo's body.

Although he has known Duoyan and Duoluo for a long time, it is indeed the first time for Wu Tong to see a living snow fox, or to be more accurate, an active snow fox.This white fox is a little smaller than expected, more like a squirrel with a long fox face, and its tail is bigger than its body.

Moreover, Dolo's snow fox has six tails. It turned out to be a six-tailed snow fox. There is no doubt that it is stronger than Dolo.Wu Tong clearly remembered that Wu Lantu said that it was impossible to catch the six-tailed snow fox.

This snow fox has been pretending to be dead for a long time. After waking up, it was a little bit unresponsive. First, it turned around twice in place, shook its tail, tilted its head and thought for a while before realizing who its owner was, and immediately jumped onto the fox. Lo's shoulder licked her face.

Then Duo Luo pointed, and the six-tailed snow fox jumped down again, pointing at the pile of corpses, the snow fox spread its tail and spewed out an extremely cold breath mixed with ice and snow, instantly freezing those corpses into pieces. The ice sculpture, then turned to dust and disappeared.

"I'm going, so ruthless!" Wu Tong was taken aback, subconsciously covering his mouth and nose.Wu Tong knew about burning corpses to ashes, and he had seen them before, but it was the first time he had seen corpses being frozen into ashes.

After that, Wulantu, as the prince, said a lot of words in a language that Wu Tong could not understand, and the ceremony came to an end.

"I'm sorry, you were originally here for a wedding, but it turned out to be a funeral." After the ceremony, Wu Lantu apologized to Wu Tong.It is Wu Tong's business for Wu Tong to respect their customs, but if this custom exceeds the bottom line of acceptance by the guests, it is not a good thing.

"I have to accept your apology." Wu Tong let out a slightly depressed breath, and didn't mention the words "it doesn't matter". Frankly speaking, he really doesn't have the same nature as before.He is not a person who likes to kill, and the scenes where Ulantu and the others compete with the barbarians are very bloody and seem uncomfortable.

"Hehe, I don't think you're such a stingy person, so you won't waste your time, right?" Wu Lantu and Wu Tong have known each other for a long time, and they also know that Wu Tong is never polite, so he can say whatever he thinks in his heart, So don't feel embarrassed.

Wu Tong counted the days, and there was still a short period of time.Before he came out, he told Evening Star that he would spend a month outside, and now there are about ten days left.

"That depends on when you guys will end." It's one thing not to make a move during a battle, but it's a bit uninteresting to leave when others are fighting, so Wu Tong is in a dilemma.

"This, I can't be sure. The barbarians will definitely not only have such a small number of people. This may be just an outpost. I have already asked my people to investigate." Wu Lantu took out a piece of shredded beef and handed it to Wu Tong. After a battle, all soldiers need to replenish their energy.

Wu Tong took it and worked hard for a long time before chewing it into pieces.Thinking of eating people with a soft mouth and short hands, it would be embarrassing to just serve as a guest without doing anything, so he said, "Forget it, let me help you to take a look, I'm faster."

Without waiting for Ulantu to reply, he spread his wings and flew away, scaring the hussars and northern warriors into thinking they were under surprise attack. After taking out all the strongbows and javelins, they realized that it was the one in the team. Mystery guest.

Flying in the Southern Cross forest area, the climate is cool, and you can smell the soil and the sea, which makes people feel very comfortable.But flying near the icy tundra doesn't feel so good. Wu Tong only exposed his wings, and wrapped the rest of his body in the fur cloak sent by Wulantu to prevent himself from being frozen into ice. fall down.

But even so, Wu Tong still regretted taking the initiative to take on this job. In this extremely cold wind, opening his eyes is a matter of willpower.In fact, Wu Tong made a big mistake. At first, he thought that with his own speed, he would be able to complete the task and go back soon.

But as soon as he was in the sky, he knew that he was wrong, and if he wanted to go back quickly, he had to speed up.But if you want to speed up, the wind in the air will be unbearably strong, and Wu Tong's eyes can't bear it.This is an endless loop that cannot be resolved, and there is no way around it.

But since he has already agreed, Wu Tong can only complete it seriously and responsibly.Soon, he saw the scout cavalry sent out by Ulantu.After crossing the scouting cavalry, the back became more and more desolate, and the grassland was almost invisible, but the terrain finally became a little undulating. Wu Tong took a lot of effort to look into the distance, and found that there was a rolling mountain range in front of him. The altitude is so high that the top is almost invisible, and those barbarians came from there at most.

Going forward, the storm at the upper level was getting bigger and bigger, Wu Tong had to lower the height, he felt that he was really going to become a mass of ice.The temperature here is inversely proportional to the altitude, just after the drop, Wu Tong felt much better immediately.but……

"Brother Suzaku, I have to say that your speed is actually faster than I imagined."

Wu Tong went fast and came back fast, so fast that even Wu Lantu was surprised.He knew very well how cold the barbarians were, and he had the impression that Brother Suzaku was not a very dedicated person.

Wu Tong's face was very strange. He first asked Wu Lantu for some hot soup to drive away the cold, then looked around, and then looked at Wu Lantu very seriously, and said word by word: "Dear Your Highness , if possible, I really want to leave now."

"Oh, why?" Wu Lantu didn't expect Wu Tong to say that.

"I just want to ask, with your current strength, how many barbarians can you deal with at most? I mean, if you can guarantee that you, Mingzhu, Duo Luo and Duo Yan will not die."

"What do you mean?" Wu Lantu's face changed drastically. Wu Tong obviously didn't want an answer to this question.

"I think you should send people back to the royal court immediately, and then quickly dispatch the army to come. Otherwise, just the few people present, you, the prince, will really become a hero." Wu Tong said slowly, and finally He also emphasized, "Do you understand heroes? They are the kind of characters that only exist in history, and they don't exist when they are alive."

"No way!" Wulantu didn't quite believe it, but he didn't dare to disbelieve it completely. He called Wulan Mingzhu, Duoluo, Duoyan and others over, and relayed what Wu Tong said.

"Impossible, what a joke." Gai Lou was the first to not believe it, and he had the most people here. If Wu Tong was telling the truth, then he would be miserable.When the barbarians were dispatched, he couldn't bring them back first, so he could only forcefully block them, and the loss could not be small.

The two sisters Duo Luo and Duo Yan didn't say a word, but looked at Wu Lantu.Wu Lantu could only look at Wu Tong again, waiting for Wu Tong to explain carefully.

"Ahem, I heard that the tribes on your grassland migrate every year?" Wu Tong asked a question first.

"It's not necessarily true. The tribes will migrate only when the weather is bad or when there is a serious disaster, and it is temporary. In the past, when we were not unified, there were often wars." Ulan Mingzhu explained.

"Oh, then I understand. I'm sorry to tell you bad news. I think the barbarians are migrating to the south. Well, we happened to be in their way." Wu Tong said unhurriedly.

"No way?" Duoyan even laughed, "It's all right, why do you want to migrate?"

"How do I know? That's why I asked you if there is migration on the grassland, and you said yes." Wu Tong shrugged.

That's right, just after he lowered his altitude, he saw a lot of barbarians in a daze, dragging their families and carrying their luggage, heading south. The team of thousands of people just now was probably just a pioneer Just the troops.

"How many are there?" Gai Lou asked, frowning.

"I've said it all. It's a family migration. All the barbarians have come. How many people do you think there are?" Wu Tong asked.

To be honest, in fact, when he saw the formation of the barbarians, he came back directly, and didn't count them at all.He really didn't have a good answer to Gai Lou's question.
