Immortal Refiner
Chapter 16 Plan
The attacked frontier army camp was almost unable to resist the attack of more than 5,000 horse thieves. In the burning sea of fire, all of them fled in all directions.
As General Yuan Xiao took a large number of people to fight against the horse thieves, the total number of Wu Li Army stationed in the camp was less than 2,000.
Although there were many warriors in the Wu Li Army, facing such a huge gap in military strength, they were still unable to save the situation.
However, on the night of the defeat, two centurions who had practiced internal strength attacked and killed dozens of horse thieves with ruthless means, and even almost threatened the leader of the horse thieves, Tu Wahar.
However, facing a large number of cavalry, even the masters of internal strength did not dare to fight, and finally chose to retreat and leave.
"Ahem!"
Tu Wahar, who was knocked off his horse, was surrounded by quite a lot of people, all looking at him with concern.
However, Tuwahar just wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then got back on the horse, and looked at the direction where the two internal force masters left with fear.
These two internal force masters were Qian Hong and Guo Zhentong, the two centurions stationed in the camp. Their extremely strong martial arts almost killed Tuwahar, who was born with supernatural powers.
"Chief, are you okay?"
Tuwahar shook his head and laughed: "These warriors of Fengguo are really not simple. They can threaten me from such a long distance."
The wise military advisor among the horse thieves said at this moment: "There are only a few people who can practice martial arts to this level. There are not many in the whole Fengguo, otherwise Fengguo would have defeated Liangguo long ago!"
The leader of the horse thieves threw away his unhappiness and immediately ordered: "Send some brothers to chase and kill the remaining deserters. It is best not to let any of these warriors go. The remaining brothers bring all the supplies of the entire camp back to Bandong Grassland!"
"Chief, we captured some prisoners!" A horse thief came up to report.
However, Tuwahar grinned, his eyes revealed an extremely fierce aura, and he shouted loudly:
"The Tuwa tribe does not keep prisoners! Kill them all, hahahaha!"
"Tuwa!!!"
"..."
As the horse thieves roared, Tuwahar led his men to plunder the supplies of the entire camp.
For these horse thieves from the grassland, the salt, iron, food, cloth and other supplies in the military camp are the most precious things. For this reason, they do not hesitate to harass several surrounding countries every year, even if many people are killed and injured, they keep repeating this.
They rarely trade. Compared with several countries with rich resources such as Fengguo and Liangguo, trade is a very disadvantageous thing for tribes with only cattle and sheep.
So, the only way is looting!
Just when this group of horse thieves were frantically sweeping the military camp, a horse thief found that something was wrong.
"Oh no, the granary is on fire!"
As soon as these words came out, the face of the leader Tuwahar turned ugly almost immediately. He pulled the reins of his horse and rode towards the source of the sound.
The next moment, this leader with an absolutely heroic temperament came to the granary with a raging fire.
He looked at this scene, and his face almost froze.
"It's not spreading naturally, it seems to be a fire set by people." The horse thief military advisor sighed and said.
Immediately, his face was full of murderous aura, and he immediately ordered: "Send another 500 brothers to chase and kill the fleeing soldiers, and make sure to kill them all!"
Food is an extremely precious material for the grassland tribes. Now that it was burned by a fire, it naturally made him hate it.
In the past, when looting, the defeated people would take the initiative to leave food and grass. This has almost become a customary thing. Only in this way will they not chase the fleeing soldiers so tightly.
Now this fire has completely burned his heart.
...
At this moment, in the polar night world.
Li Qing, the instigator of setting fire to the granary, carefully hid the large amount of food he carried.
He was almost exhausted. Carrying so much food was a heavy burden even if he started to practice martial arts.
Li Qing lay on a pile of rice and flour bags. Even if he overeats, these piled up foods are enough for him to eat for a long time.
"If I save a little, I can eat for a year or two, but I don't know if it will get moldy..." Li Qing patted his body
"Although it disrupted the original plan, it can be considered free now, right?"
Originally, Li Qing planned to wait for the horse thieves to attack, and then he would find a dead person of similar size to him in the polar night world to replace his death.
At that time, throw the body into the furnace, and no one will recognize his appearance, so his departure will be justified.
It is reasonable to die from the robbery of the horse thieves. No one will doubt him as a small blacksmith apprentice.
After leaving the military camp and having enough food, he was temporarily safe.
But there was one bad thing now, that is, where did he travel to the polar night world? When he traveled back, he would return to the same place.
Carrying a large amount of food almost made him exhausted, so he did not have the energy to escape to a suitable place to travel to the polar night world.
If he went back now, the granary would still turn into a sea of fire.
"Well, if I stay in the Polar Night World for a year, then four months have passed on the other side, and it's almost winter..."
"It's a good time to return. I hope that the place I return to won't have a new granary..."
The granary of each military camp is a key place that must be strictly guarded, which is why Li Qing chose to burn the granary after leaving.
Not only did he hope to cover up the traces of his taking away a large amount of food, but he also hoped that the granary would not be rebuilt here at that time.
He didn't want to face a heavily guarded granary after a long time... The risk of exposure would be too high.
As for why winter is a good time to return, because every winter, many soldiers will return to the mainland of Maple Kingdom to visit their relatives, of course, this is under the premise that there is no war.
And the grassland horse thieves will also choose to call off the troops and return to the Bandong grassland to spend the winter.
So no matter what the situation in Wangyuan City will be in the future, the border in winter is a relatively empty place.
"Alas, I have to stay in this bitter cold place for a year!"
Li Qing, who had recovered some of his strength, jumped off the rice and flour bag, patted the white ash on his buttocks, and continued to comfort himself:
"It's just right to explore this Obsidian City in detail, and at the same time I can calm down and practice martial arts well, and it would be best if I could enter the level of external force masters as soon as possible."
In the past, he was in the military camp and didn't have much free time.
If he disappeared for too long, it would arouse other people's suspicion.
So every time he shuttled to the polar night world, he basically couldn't stay for a long time. He always shuttled in when it was late at night and shuttled back when it was still dark.
This was the first time that Li Qing had stayed for a year at a time.
For this bitter cold place where he didn't have enough food, he never thought of staying here forever. After all, he still had to go back.
But before that, he hoped to make his martial arts as superb as possible.
