    Chapter 519: A speed that cannot be captured at all

    I don¡¯t know why, but the torches on the stone wall are not densely lit. It seems that the defenders prefer the dark night.  Because of the darkness, the Meng Yuan scouts who were hiding behind the rocks in the canyon couldn't even see if there were any defenders on the city wall. They couldn't hear a sound from all around, and it was so quiet that they seemed to have fallen into another space.

    The scout stared until his eyes felt swollen, but he still didn¡¯t see anyone moving on the stone wall.  He frowned and thought for a while, then turned back to report.

    ¡°About half an hour later, Teqin Kuoke Taimengli himself stopped about 150 steps outside the stone wall, found a stone to hide himself, and then looked at the city wall carefully with his clairvoyance.  The clairvoyance in his hand was a gift from Li Yuanshan to him. Businessmen in Dongchu were unwilling to enter the grassland to do business, because in their view, the Mongolian people were cruel and unreasonable.  That's why Fan Gu was so prosperous in the beginning. Merchants from Dong Chu brought their goods to Fan Gu and traded with the grassland people under the Han system, which made them feel at ease.

    There once was a bold Dongchu businessman who entered the prairie and tried to open a new trade route. Unfortunately, he did not understand the character of the prairie people at all. Those herdsmen did not care about the price he set and picked up a few silver coins.  The goods would be taken away, or simply exchanged for horses.

    If they don¡¯t agree, the herdsmen will draw their swords.

    "But what's the use of horses from Dongchu merchants?"  If they wanted to return to Dong Chu, they had to pass through the Sui Dynasty, and the Meng Yuan people would never allow war horses to flow into the Sui Dynasty. Therefore, when this Dong Chu businessman walked to the border with hundreds of horses in fear, he was still  Meng Yuan's patrol cavalry stopped him, and then said that he was a spy of the Sui Dynasty. They seized all the horses and beat him with twenty leather whips.  Although he was not killed, the experience of losing all his money was something he would never forget.

    Therefore, although the founding of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was much longer than that of the Sui Dynasty, it was far behind commercially.

    The footprints of Dongchu merchants are all over this continent, and they have reached the farthest east.  It is said that after crossing the ocean and passing through the countries on the huge islands, there is an extremely prosperous empire in the far east. Its territory is wider than the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and richer than the Sui Dynasty.

    Dongchu merchants who have been there swear that the people there are the happiest people in the world because they have a wise monarch, a perfect system, and the most powerful army in the world.  If it weren't for the endless ocean, the empire's army could even reach here.

    When Yang Yi, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, first heard the news, he just raised the corner of his mouth, and there seemed to be some disdain between his eyebrows.

    Precisely because the Mongolian Yuan people did not trade with the Eastern Chu merchants, the generals of the Sui army had long been equipped with clairvoyance, which was very rare for the Mongolian people. When Kuoketai Meng Lie first raised this thing to the  When they were far away, they even shouted excitedly.

    The people of Dong Chu said that the civilization level of the empire in the east was much higher than that of the world here.

    For such a statement, Kuoketai Menglie also sneered.

    He never believed that any country in the world was more powerful than Mongolia.

    After staring at the city wall carefully for more than ten minutes, Kuoketai Menglie did not see any defenders walking back and forth on it.  I listened carefully, but I couldn't hear anyone speaking.  A few dim torches on the stone wall were like will-o'-the-wisps, illuminating only a radius of two to three meters.

    After hesitating for a few minutes, Kuoketai Menglie looked back at the people around him: "Go up and explore, we can't win with an open attack, now it's up to you. Don't be discovered, try to open the city gate, if there is no chance, open it  Door, you must stay on the wall for at least two moments, and I will rush up with my troops to meet you."

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Special Qin, this is our mission and we will not fail!¡±

    The speaker has a typical prairie person's appearance, with a square face and a beard. He is wearing the prairie people's favorite leather robe. It can not only withstand wind and snow, but is also extremely strong. A leather robe can be passed down for two generations.  Nothing unusual.

    ¡°I, Duo Guduo, swear to the Heaven of Immortality that I will open the door for his people to return home tonight.¡±

    He hit his chest with his right hand, his face solemn.

    "Go ahead"

    Kuoketai Menglie nodded: "I believe in your ability. When the Great Khan sent you to me, to be honest, I didn't feel very comfortable. I think it was the Great Khan's distrust of me. But.  I have never doubted your ability, nor your loyalty. Now the Great Khan is calling us back, and you are the key to that door."

    "We walked!"

    Duo Guduo stood up, without any weapons on his body.

      He turned around and waved, and dozens of people in black costumes immediately stood up.  These people were the people sent by Kuoketai Mengge to be around Meng Lie. They said they were sent to him as guards, but in fact they were to monitor him.  These people were masters of Meng Yuan and did not participate in the assassination of Luo Yao.  And because of this, they are still alive.

    Dozens of men in black followed Duo Guduo, walking through the night like swift and agile cheetahs.  They quickly approached the city wall without making a sound.  The way these people run is very different from ordinary people. They actually walk on all fours, and they really look like wild beasts.

    And they were silent, but their eyes were extremely cold.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    A Mengyuan man dressed in black glanced at Duo Guduo's gesture. He nodded and made a very deep sound in his throat. The sound was very awkward and made people feel frightened.  Then he stretched out his hand to grab at the gap in the stone wall, and jumped up as soon as he exerted his strength with his arms. He climbed up at an alarming speed, almost as if he was running with all four limbs on the vertical wall.

    In the darkness, he seemed to be able to clearly see the gaps in the wall, and every contact of his hands and feet landed exactly in the most suitable place.

    Such vision is horrifying.

    When he was approaching the stone wall, he slowed down and moved upward slowly like a leopard that had found its prey. If anyone saw him at this time, they would be surprised to find that he had no shoes on, his feet were bare, and his toes were digging into the wall.  The gaps in the stone wall are particularly powerful.

    He slowly poked his head out and looked up, and found that there was no one nearby.  God gave him strength far beyond that of ordinary people, but his life experiences made his thinking extremely simple.  If a normal person came up and found that there were no defenders on the stone wall, they would immediately suspect that something was wrong.  But when he saw no one there, he immediately jumped up, and his hands and feet landed at the same time without making a sound.

    Although his thinking is very simple, his experience has given him a keen sense of smell, and he seems to feel that there is something threatening his existence around him, so he becomes a little restless.

    But he did not flinch immediately, but looked at the darkness around him vigilantly.

    Duo Guduo waited below for a while but didn't hear anything strange. He waved his hand to signal others to go up. At least thirty men in black climbed up using their hands and feet. They were all barefoot and exuded the same aura of beasts.  Duo Guduo's cultivation seemed to be very good. A man in black who went up came down a rope. After Duo Guduo grabbed the rope, the man in black pulled upwards hard. Duo Guduo took advantage of the situation and kicked on the wall.  Flying up lightly.

    When he saw no one around, his nerves immediately became tense.

    This is not normal.

    There is not a single defender on the stone wall.

    Even if the Han people did not expect that they would attack at night, they could not leave soldiers on guard.

    So Duo Guduo¡¯s first instinct was to go back.

    At this moment, the man in black who was farthest from him suddenly let out a low roar in his throat, and then fell down softly.  No one saw what happened to him. You must know that the special experiences of these men in black since childhood gave them an unparalleled sense of smell and alertness to danger. However, this time no one noticed in advance where the murderous intention came from.

    The second mistake Duo Guduo made was that he did not immediately order an evacuation but instead lowered his head to check the injury of the man in black who fell to the ground.

    Blood was still pouring out from the neck of the man in black, as if he had been swept by some extremely sharp weapon.  But they didn't see anyone appear. Duo Guduo firmly believed that as long as someone was within thirty meters, he would never be able to hide it from his eyes and ears.  But no, they found nothing.

    Just when he was confused, someone behind him let out a low roar again and fell down.  Duo Guduo was shocked. At this time, he did not go to explore the deceased's injuries, but immediately waved his hand to signal everyone to go back.

    but

    It's too late.

    When he turned around, he found that a man in black robe was walking towards him with a long knife that was as gentle as water under the moonlight.  Precisely because they all have excellent eyesight, they can see the smile on the corner of the man's mouth even in the dark.

    Dozens of men in black lay down at the same time, and the moment their hands touched the ground, they felt a little at ease.  Their limbs were touching the ground, and they looked up at the man in black robes, their throats emitting the neighing of a wolf when it encounters an enemy, which was low but extremely fierce.  Wild animals will make such sounds when they are in crisis, among which wolves are the most well-known.  At this time, the wolf raised its stiff fur and grinned in warning.

    These people seem to be doing just that.

    As the man in black robe walked forward,These beast-like men in black retreated.  This posture of retreating on all fours is not a human habit.

    Although there was only one person in front of her, Duo Guduo knew that there was no need to stay any longer.  The enemy is waiting for them to arrive. Behind this person may be countless arrows.

    "interesting"

    Fang Jie looked at the men in black in front of him who behaved unusually, and raised his eyebrows: "I heard before when I was a scout in Fan Gu that the best scouts in the world are the orcs from the Meng Yuan Court.  It is said that you people are specially selected. You have grown up with wild beasts. Your living habits are the same as those of wild beasts. You eat raw meat and drink human blood. You come and go without a trace. You are the most outstanding scout team."

    "And the most important thing is that you are obedient enough."

    Duo Guduo's eyes suddenly changed, and he said a few words in Mongolian. The first few men in black immediately rushed towards Fang Jie, running on all fours, like wolves and leopards.  Duo Guduo immediately turned around and wanted to jump off the stone wall.

    At this moment, the man in black robe stepped forward and made a hole in the hard stone wall. The gravel disappeared as it shattered. Duo Guduo subconsciously retreated backwards but was still a little too slow. A pain hit his shoulder.  , a long gash was cut out of the tough leather robe, and blood came out instantly.

    Duo Guduo was shocked and immediately roared several times. The orcs roared and rushed towards Fang Jie.  In such a rapid impact, they were able to change their route abruptly, suddenly turning around halfway and rushing towards the outside of the wall in an attempt to jump off.

    But what happened next made Duo Guduo's heart immediately stir up a storm.

    The man in black robe with the knife disappeared, and when he reappeared, he chopped an orc to death with one knife, then disappeared again, and then cut off an orc who was about to jump down. He was like dozens of clones that appeared, and his eyes could not catch him at all.  He was nowhere to be seen.  Every time he disappears and every time he appears, he takes away the life of an orc.

    Dozens of orcs with agile and fast movements wanted to jump down almost at the same time, but he kept moving alone and stopped all the orcs.

    It¡¯s a very slow process to describe in words, but it only happened in less than a minute.

    This speed cannot be described in words.

    At this moment, Duo Guduo felt death.
