Lord Witch, please don't resurrect me again!

Shia said: "You don't have to play those, you can play whatever you want." Shia is also a listener in terms of music, just like Leoric.

Drogcamus was thinking about what song to play, and after a while, she shrugged her ears, clapped her hands and said, "That's right! I've learned a song called 'The Girl and the Big Bear', which is said to be a song from the Highlanders. An old song."

"An old song from the plateau people?" Shia pondered for a while and said, "I've never heard of this name."

Leoric has never heard of this song, but he heard it from Teves, saying that many traditional cultures of the plateau people have been lost in the north, such as previous classics, folk songs, dramas, and artworks. Wait, they are all in the palace of the barbarians, and some of them have been learned by the barbarians. In short, it is very shameful.But I have to admit that if the current plateau people want to taste the authentic "traditional culture", the best place is to go to Manzi.Shame, shame!Teves also scolded at the time: "Damn it! When I get back what I lost, I can enjoy these things in my own home openly!"

I guess the same goes for this song.

Leoric explained the reason to Shia. After listening to Shia, she nodded with a complicated expression, and sighed, "It's a bit embarrassing."

Zhuoge Camus thought he had chosen the wrong song, so he hurriedly said: "I can also change it, for example... the "Trilogy", "Green Wind" and "Royal Horse" that are often played at celebrations. "

Shia shook her head and said, "It's not your fault that you made it like this. Just play this. I also want to hear what music was like 200 years ago."

"Yes, I will play it now."

Drogcamus put on his fingertips and began to play the musical instrument.The music was light and melodious, with a clear rhythm, and Drogcamus's fingers danced on the strings like dancing butterflies.Leoric's fingers were tapping the tabletop rhythmically, Shia was nodding slightly rhythmically, and Seravi was also chewing a piece of large intestine rhythmically.

At the end of the song, everyone applauded and Drogcamus got up to salute.

Pushila sighed and said: "It's such a cheerful song, I want to learn it too."

But Xi Ya frowned, and said: "The 'Classic Songs of Highlanders' in my memory is a heavy feeling of the country's destruction and family destruction. So did the ancestors have such joyful songs?"

"That's for sure!" Leoric laughed. "When the ancestors composed the music, the plateau people were still dominating the mainland. How could it be possible to make some 'subjugated ditties' all day like 200 years later?"

Shia silently nodded, deeply appreciating this.

At this time, Selawei suddenly said: "Hey, since it is said that barbarian girls can learn some art, will the little fox know it? Kiki, what do you have to do? Make one! Make one!"

Leoric couldn't help rubbing his forehead, thinking: This little mentally retarded, why is his EQ and bust the same, and he doesn't grow at all?It's easy to say if the little fox knows it, but if someone hasn't learned it or can't fix it, how embarrassing it is?

Fortunately, Tanakig seems to be able to cope with the situation. She was polite first, then stood up and said, "Then let me sing a song, Mom, help me with the accompaniment."

Drogcamus asked, "Okay, what's the song?"

"It's the second half of the song just now."

"it is good."

Drog Camus didn't finish talking just now, the full version of "The Girl and the Bear" has not changed much, and it is very long. If there is no human voice, it will appear thin and boring.However, the addition of the little fox completes the song.Tanakig's voice was crisp and clear, with high pitch and low pitch, and her breathing was very steady, and her singing skills were very professional. After singing a song, everyone stood up and applauded.Leoric even gave a very high evaluation, saying: "At this level, even if you don't become a princess, you can definitely make a lot of money with a guitar in a tavern! Those bards in Wild Wolf City should all Kowtow one to you, and worship you as a teacher."

The little fox was happy and shy at the same time, blushing and said: "I don't dare to be, if my husband likes it, I can sing it for you at any time in the future."

At this time, Pushila asked: "Qiqi, you sang in plateau language just now, and the technique is also biased towards the school of plateau people. I remember that grassland people also have many beautiful songs. Have you ever learned how to sing?"

The little fox thought for a while, and said: "Things from my family... I can actually sing a little Hoomei, but it is used for sacrifices or channeling spirits, and I don't usually sing it."

"Huh? You know Humai?" Leoric called out directly.

In Leoric's concept, this kind of singing should only be sung by rough guys.

The little fox was a little embarrassed, so he explained: "This has nothing to do with appearance or gender. It is actually a technique. If you practice hard, everyone can learn it-essentially, one person sings two voices at the same time. department."

"What does Khoomei mean?" asked Pushila.

"You'll know after listening to it—Kiki, come on for a while, please, just a short one!"

"Of course my husband wants to listen to it, but I want to say first, this is not suitable for singing at mealtimes, it is a more serious ritual music." After she finished speaking, she cleared her throat, her throat wriggled, and then tried a few notes, and then began Performance.

Hoomai, which Leoric had heard in his previous life, is a special singing method, which allows the singer to use special skills to sing two or more parts at the same time.It's just that the people who performed Humai in my memory were all big men on the grassland, professional shamans, and it's really rare for a little girl like Tanakig to have this kind of skill.

As Tanakig's vocal cords vibrated, the gas in her cavity resonated, and a very shocking sound came out of her mouth.The moment he heard the voice, there was a dead silence in the room, and all the audience felt their scalps go numb, and Serawi was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks.The little fox closed his eyes, his tongue was trembling according to a certain pattern, and his voice was "high and low", which sounded very penetrating, and seemed to be surrounded from all directions, like a howling wind, or like a thousand troops .Close your eyes, you will never imagine that there is a cute little fox standing in front of you.

After about 30 seconds, Tanakig's voice stopped abruptly, and then she bowed and took a bow.Everyone was stunned for a while, and then they applauded loudly.Seeing the calm look of the little fox, she must be able to handle it with ease, but she is afraid that singing for too long will scare the audience.

Shia sighed, "I feel like I'm going out of my body..."

Pushila said: "The last time I felt so numb was when I listened to the choir's atonement song during the Demon God worship."

Even Semel, who was playing outside, flew back and said with a look of horror: "What are you doing in the house? The magic element is shaking, and I feel that my existence has been distorted!"

Leoric recalled the memories from the past—Tana Qig's performance was somewhat similar to what he heard in his previous life, but it was even more magical, which made Leoric feel as if his soul was shocked.He felt this way last time, and it's still... the last time he came back.Leoric vaguely remembered that not long ago, he was sank by some kind of indescribable music, where was it?The more Lao Li thought about it, the more he had a headache, and he said to himself: If you drink too much, don't think about it.

And Serawi said very seriously: "I intuitively think that this is a very remarkable ability! I remember the four branches of the mixed-blood elves, one of which is dedicated to the study of 'sound magic', just like Our spice magic is the same; adding magic power and incantations to the voice can form a unique magic effect... I just don’t know where that branch has gone now.” Serawi said that he didn’t say anything, but Leo Rui Ke kept his eyes open, thinking: I will tell the intelligence department of the elves about this later, and ask them to find out where the other branches of the half-blood elf kingdom are.

The little fox smiled a little embarrassedly, and said: "After all, it is music for worshiping the heavens, and it will cause a little magic element vibration. It is said that some powerful old shamans can use this method to release witchcraft, but I am far away from it." Not to that extent."

Leoric was thinking: This kind of soulful voice must be very powerful if it is used for singing, singing core, or singing metal.If the little fox with such a sweet and lovely shape is engaged in heavy music, tsk tsk tsk, the picture is unimaginable.

Leoric suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "By the way, can you sing barbarian songs?

"Of course I will, which one do you want to hear, my husband?"

"Such as homesickness, family, or longing for peace? The more popular the better, the more popular the better."

The little fox smiled and said, "Of course I will! Beginners need to learn these songs, such as "Old Shepherd Boy", "Seven Sighs of a Loving Mother", and "Spring Grass Withered". These are all popular songs, even children can sing them!"

Leoric said with a smile: "The name sounds more unlucky than the other. Okay, let's sing this!"

The little fox asked, "Do you want to sing now?"

"No, you go to sing on the city wall in two days!" Old Li said with a bad smile, "I want Kuman to taste the besieged song, ah no, the taste of Li Ge from all sides."

Chapter 290: The Little Song of Subjugated Country

More than a month has passed, and there is still no sign of surrender in Wild Wolf City.

There was a layer of hoarfrost on the bacon in front of Kuman.Cold and hard pancakes can knock out a person's teeth.

Kuman was not in the mood to eat, so he read the information over and over again.

Recently, the crows’ information has been back and forth with those few words, saying that the military appearance of the Northern Expeditionary Army is as usual, and there is no sign of famine; or that the number of pedestrians on the street has not decreased, and the shops are operating normally.

What's even more exasperating is that there is a sacrificial priest who reports every day: Someone got married in Wild Wolf City today, and they eat five tables; an old man died today, and they eat four tables; Leoric condolences to the officers and soldiers in the mansion, and eats ten tables...

Later, Kuman simply wrote a note, saying: "There is no need to report when you are eating!" Out of sight, out of mind.

Occasionally, there is some good news, saying that there are no activities held in Wild Wolf City today, and there are many fewer people on the street. Kuman was just about to be happy, when he suddenly looked outside the tent and saw heavy snowfall, making dogs shiver with cold .He immediately scolded: Damn!No one went out, so heavy snow, who came out to suffer from the cold?

Why is there still no famine in Wild Wolf City?Kuman even suspected that these Crow's Eye Priests were collaborating with the enemy, and said in his heart: Will you watch it?I just eat and drink all day long, is it true that the priests have colluded with the enemy and reported false information to me?In fact, there are bones everywhere in Wild Wolf City?

However, two of the priests were already exhausted, and three were crazy. Seeing how hard they worked, it didn't seem like there was something wrong with their conscience.Besides, Kuman himself has crows, and his crows will report every three to five times. The content of the information is the same as what the priests saw. The streets in Wild Wolf City are clean and the life is normal. They open shops every day and occasionally eat banquets.The most fucking outrageous thing is that people in the city can still eat hot food, drink hot water, and even take hot baths every day!How on earth did they do it?I remember that Wild Wolf City doesn't have such ample water resources, let alone so much firewood for them to burn. Are these cubs going to demolish houses?

There was a layer of solidified white fat floating on the broth, and the good friend beside him couldn't stand it, and said, "Shall I warm it up for you before eating?"

"I can't eat it." Kuman waved his hand.

Kuman can't eat, who can eat this!

Besides, even if it's too hot, I don't want to eat this pig food every day!Thinking back a month ago, Kuman was still living in the imperial capital of the northern border, living a life of luxury.Even if you go to the front line to fight, it is always a hearty and fast battle, which is rarely the case.What's more, the Dragon King Brin is so rich, and he has always been well supplied with logistical supplies when fighting for him.And now...

Thinking of logistics, Kuman felt dizzy.

The army's logistics is really broken. He originally expected the battle to end in a week, no more than [-] days at most, so he prepared food for nearly a month. This food includes siege, fighting, and returning. Bottom line, even the austere ratio is not enough to eat.

Kuman is really the first and the second big. He made many strategies for this. On the one hand, he collected food on the spot. He sent many people to collect food and search the surrounding villages and towns. His is still loyal to Leoric, as long as there is food, bring it to me!The only difference is that your own people will issue IOUs; the enemy will only issue IOUs, and there will be no IOUs.However, doing so would not be able to collect food at all. The food for our own people had already been brought in, and there was not much oil and water to be squeezed, and the food for the enemy had already entered Wild Wolf City, and Leoric not only took away the food , He also took away many refugees, and he moved or hid those who could not be taken away.In short, the food requisition operation took a formality at best, and the food collected could at most consume an extra day or two for the army.

Then it is dispatched from the rear, and this rear is the queen mother!Kuman sent a flying crow to send a letter, and flew to the territory of the Lion King and Dragon King Brin to borrow food, because there was no food in Middle Earth.However, the Lion King would definitely not borrow it. This guy hoped that Kuman and Leoric would lose both, and then he could sit back and catch the fishnet.But the Dragon King Brin said that he could borrow it, but the war in the north was tight. From dispatching personnel to transporting food and grass, it would take more than a month at least. He asked Kuman if he could wait?

Wait another month, and the mice will starve to death!Kuman's second strategy also failed.

Kuman was forced to do nothing, and even wanted to send people to bypass Wild Wolf City and go south to the swamp to plunder, so that he might be able to collect a sum of food and grass; however, it would take a month to ride a horse to the swamp from here. Even if the food could be snatched back, they would have starved to death long ago.

Food, food, food!

Oh, not only food, but also fuel.

It's icy and snowy here, so if you don't want to freeze to death, you have to keep warm, right?You can't just rely on cotton clothes for heating, right?You also need a stove, hot food, and hot water.However, there is not enough fuel on Kuman's side, the stove is not hot enough, hot food can't be heated up, and the water can't be boiled, so everyone has to eat cold dishes and cold water.This food is cold in the mouth and cool in the heart!What's more, the staple food is not enough, and the calories are not enough. The more I eat, the colder it gets.

Kuman sent people to go outside to look for firewood, but Leoric had already cleared the walls and cleared the fields, and he could burn and chop everything that could be burned. The surrounding area of ​​Wolf City was as bare as a programmer's skull. Where could there be a blade of grass for him? burn?There was no choice but to transport it from the rear again, but the transport required manpower and material resources, time and cost, and also consumed a small amount of grain, grass and livestock.Tossing like this for a piece of broken wood, Kuman is in pain!The heartache is like a person who just bought the game in full and caught up with the historically low discount and can't get a refund. He can only leave a sentence "I'm an idiot" in the comment area in pain.

At this time, some smart people stood up and said: Kuman Kuman!Let's tear down some fortifications and burn them for warmth!Such as siege engine watchtower or something.

Kuman was slapped in the face at the time, and then cursed: "Idiot! Are you not going to attack the city?"

The man said aggrievedly: "Didn't your lord say that we don't want to attack the city, but just wait for Leoric to go out and surrender? Since we don't want to attack the city, why do we keep the siege equipment? Why not burn it to keep warm?" Woolen cloth!"

Kuman was speechless!

Yes, this logic is correct, very "Kuman"!Aren't we going to wait for Leoric to come out and surrender by himself? Why keep the siege equipment? I won't attack the city anyway.

But will Leoric really come out and surrender?

From the intelligence point of view, this possibility is very small.

In the end, Cuman forgave the good friend and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, but now is not the time."

At this moment, even the "good friends" who trusted Cuman the most were silent, and morale was extremely low.

The barbarian soldiers have always fought fast battles, riding horses, plundering and running away, quick battles. Although this kind of battle is risky, it is also very efficient, and they will not be hungry during the battle.No one can bear this grievance now that they are wasting away under this city wall.

If you want to kill, you have to have a good time!How can a barbarian warrior starve to death under the city wall?

Kuman didn't even dare to enter the camp recently, for fear that the hungry barbarian soldiers would start a rebellion and eat him alive.Kuman is very aware of the temperament of these guys. The barbarian soldiers here have no sense of honor, and they fight for profit.Now that there is no profit to be made, morale cannot be maintained.

And the "end the war before the New Year" promised by Kuman to them has obviously gone bankrupt.

Kuman is now worried about a further decline in morale. Depression, nervousness, starvation, and lack of discipline are likely to cause mutiny or even a battalion scream. No matter which one, he will lose the war.

In short, morale can no longer be a problem!Stabilize morale, and then make plans.Kuman decided to give a mobilization speech today, telling the soldiers that he was going to attack the city, and giving everyone a hope.

After all, if Leoric did not surrender, he would have two choices, either to withdraw his troops or attack the city.It is absolutely impossible to withdraw the troops, so there is only siege.

Kuman still can't figure out why Leoric can persist until now, but this is not important anymore!As a general, he had to make a decision on the current situation!

Kuman can only hope now: when the city was besieged, Leoric's defenders were a group of starving ghosts who couldn't hold a sword, so that I could win the war.

At this moment, a Crow's Eye Priest ran in, and he said loudly to Kuman, "Master Kuman, we have discovered a strange thing and report it to you."

"Strange? How weird?"

The Crow's Eye Priest said, "Leoric seems to be setting up some kind of magic weapon on the city wall. Next to him are the mother and daughter Zhuog Camus and Tanachig. Zhuog Camus is also carrying a Yatok."

"Yatok? Leoric is playing the piano on the city wall? It's weird!" Kuman stood up and said, "Let's go outside to see!"

"Yes."

Kuman came to the outside of the camp. The snow had just stopped, and the snow in the camp was ankle-deep. A few guards were cleaning, so the gate of the camp was still clean.However, walking outside, it is a piece of mud, black, khaki, and disgusting yellow-green.There is also some dirty snow from the past few days, which was trampled by people, melted, and then froze, turning into black shards of crushed ice.

There is also the smell of feces everywhere. Generally speaking, at the temperature where pissing and freezing feces can kill people, you should not be able to smell this smell. If you can smell a strong stench, it means the toilet It was full and left unattended for a long time.

Morale is low, and discipline and efficiency will also drop. After all, there is no food, who wants to pick up shit?

Kuman didn't have time to care about these things, so he walked straight forward.

The soldiers sat or lay paralyzed in the tents, or at the gate of the camp, and some even sat on the dirty snow with dull expressions.The military appearance and discipline can be described as a mess. Many people screamed in horror when they saw Kuman walking in front of them, and then stood up to salute.With such vigilance, it is estimated that he will not know how to die.

He couldn't help roaring, and said, "You pigs! Is this how you fight? Where's the warlord? Get out!"

At this moment, a man crawled out of the tent. He didn't have time to button up the collar of his clothes, his helmet was crooked, and he had an unshaven beard. "My lord, what's the matter?"

"Get your army ready within half an hour, or I'll eat you alive!" Kuman wasn't joking, he wanted to eat roasted human flesh more than frozen pancakes.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The man quickly walked into the crowd with a whip in his hand, and beat the soldiers like whipping animals, but the people just screamed, but neither resisted nor got up.Seeing this scene, Kuman shouted: "Forget it! Leave them like this for now, and I'll figure out a way later." Then he walked out.

He went all the way to the watchtower outside, and then looked out through the binoculars—sometimes what he saw with his own eyes was more reliable than the Crow's Eye.

As the priest said, Leoric, Drog Camus, and his mother and daughter stood on the city wall, and there was something like a trumpet beside it. It was made of some kind of metal, and it was very huge. As tall as a person.The three of them were talking at this moment, Leoric was beaming with excitement, while the traitor mother and daughter listened nervously.

Oh shit!This pair of sluts are so tender, I have to eat you!Cuman thought to himself.

At this time, Kuman noticed that there was a fourth person. That guy was a dwarf, very short, and his figure was like a big pie. This guy had horns, red skin, and a hammer. He seemed to be a demon.Cuman has long heard that Leoric will drive demons, and it seems that the rumors are true.

The dwarf was holding an iron boat with tools attached to his body. He seemed to be a blacksmith. Maybe he was the one who built the strange horn.

What are these people doing?Kuman thought suspiciously.

Forget it, they can't make any monsters. If Leoric had any skills, he probably would have used them a long time ago, and he wouldn't waste a month with me.Thinking of this, Kuman suddenly lost interest, thinking about whether to go back and continue to read the information, or eat the cold lunch.

And at this moment, a few more people came on the city wall, they were a few strong soldiers, carrying a large semi-closed iron box with two chairs inside.Leoric asked them to put the iron box on the city wall, and let the mother and daughter sit in it.Afterwards, Shia Leikui also walked up to the city wall with a sword in hand, holding the weapon nervously, as if ready to fight.

If it's just Leoric, it's fine, and Shia has also come out. I'm afraid this matter is not easy!After these days of observations, Kuman found that: Leoric is not so much the general of the Northern Expedition Army as he is a soldier in the field of battle, wandering around the city wall all day long, often drinking and meditating on the wall , Looking at the scenery, at first when Leoric went up the city wall, the barbarians were a little nervous, but now that they saw him coming, they didn't hang him at all.

But Shia is not. Shia rarely goes up the city wall, and every time she goes up, something must happen.Once it was to test the distance of the arrows, once it seemed to be observing the layout of the barbarian camps and recording various numbers, and another time it was to direct the flower fairy to drive away the crows.

Shia also came this time, still holding a sword, this matter must not be easy.

Just when Kuman was wondering, Tanakig on the city wall spoke up.
