MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 436 again and again

   "The Beacon Tower must be strictly guarded!" After deliberation, he asked a magician to install a barrier.

  Longhougang itself has a talisman guard, which is usually not opened. There are several magicians stationed in the army, isn't it easy to do this job?

   But he spent money to add an enchantment to the Beacon Tower, and it was too late to report it—it was not approved so quickly, at least ten days and a half months—so he had to pay for it out of his own pocket.

  The next night was peaceful.

  Every minute the enchantment is opened consumes energy. No matter how refined the defensive barrier made by Shushun coins is, at least half of the mysterious crystals will be used up for ten hours every day.

   Two days is a whole piece!

  He was sent to guard the gate at Longhougang in the mountains. He had no money and no connections. Who didn't know that the task of guarding the gate was heavy and the salary was low? After doing this for two days, he couldn't do it anymore.

  He also asked Shangfeng for help, but his immediate boss scolded him. Xuan Jing is such a precious strategic material, do you want to use it to deal with invisible threats?

  The most important thing is that there is no end to this defense. Do you want to guard against it for a day or two, ten days and a half months, or a year or two?

  Thousands of money are spent without even hearing the sound of water. If the boss dares to approve it, the boss's boss may think that he is pocketing his own money.

  So the enchantment will soon fail.

   On the third night, the beacon tower was lit again, this time three beacon stoves were lit.

  But there is no war on the western front, and the mountains and forests are very quiet.

  Looking up, the beacon fire at Longji Pass rose quickly, and the guard's eyes were darkened, and he couldn't help but cry up to the sky:

  Brother on the high platform over there, can't you wait?

  But the soldiers guarding the Beacon Tower today finally caught the real culprit:

  Wild monkeys on the mountain.

  These monkeys will steal the torches in the camp, or use branches to light the camp, and then throw them into the beacon tower.

  The guard was very annoyed: "It's unreasonable, how can the monkey light the beacon for no reason?"

  Of course the soldiers were speechless, and no one dared to speak.

  Only in the middle of the night did the confidants quietly tell the guard that there were many wild monkeys in the mountains, who had come to steal the soldiers' dry food a few days ago, and the latter burned several of them to death, and the meat was shared among them. Maybe it was because the monkeys held a grudge, so they did this.

  Is this okay? The guard immediately sent people up the mountain to catch the monkey.

   But the mountain is the home of the monkeys, how can the soldiers be flexible here? After a lot of effort, I only caught three or four. As a result, the monkey group became even more angry, and threw stones directly at the checkpoint and the camp, and the guards were accidentally smashed with blood all over their faces.

  The worst thing was that there was another night of false alarm in the capital, the prince was so angry that he changed the guard without saying a word.

  The same night, Panlong City.

  The skinny man was about to leave home when suddenly there was a burst of gongs outside, and someone shouted, "Jie-kou-xuan-speak!"

   Panlong City's large-scale pre-war mobilization lectures finally started.

  Crowds gathered one after another, listening to the man on the street explaining the content of the announcement with a broken voice.

  First of all, the heroic and upright King Xiluo has issued a relocation order, and the people of the Yuan Kingdom in the Panlong Wasteland will immediately return to their homeland.

  Secondly, the Jinxi Corridor is controlled by the Baling people, and the terrain is difficult, which is not conducive to the passage of the people. Panlong City decided to set up another Nantongguan-Hebi-Changhe route to return to Dayuan.

  Once again, Panlong City declared war on the Xiyu Kingdom:

  Xiu harassing our border defense, killing our people, intercepting our commercial goods, which is unbearable.

   Those who block my way back to the country now, die!

   When the preacher recited the proclamation for the first time, there was an uproar.

  Through the door, the skinny man could hear the sound of running and exclamation from outside, as well as the sound of doors opening from the neighbors.

   "We're going to fight Xiong! We're going to fight Xiong!" Countless people were cheering.

   The sound waves are noisy, one wave higher than the other.

  In his impression, no street corner preaching has caused such a big response.

  When the preacher recited it for the sixth time, there were already crowds outside the door, and more and more residents followed him to recite.

   Finally turned into a bold statement:

  「Those who block my way back to the country, die!」

  So, the crowd is passionate.

  The skinny man stood at the door and looked at the crowd. The little nephew clenched his fists beside him, and shouted in the same childish voice: "Those who block my way back to the country, die!"

  The skinny man was funny, so he smacked his forehead: "Life and death, do you know a P?"

  The little nephew looked at him sideways, with bright eyes: "Why don't you understand, we are going to fight, and then we can go home!"

  The thin man took a deep breath:

  「Yeah! We're going to beat the scorpion and make a way home from it!」

  Like all cheerers, he was full of desire and heroism.

  As expected by the Broken Knife team, there is no need to mobilize for war or boost morale. As long as there is an announcement, the agitation and belligerence of the soldiers and civilians in the city will naturally reach its peak.

  If someone looks at Panlong City from a distance at this moment, they will find a huge dragon-shaped phantom looming above the city, which looks like light and shadow or flowing clouds, but it is actually a concrete representation of both luck and vitality.

  The name "Panlong" is true.

  The life and death of the predecessor is uncertain, and the new guard of Longmao Gate is trembling. He first went to see the beacon tower, then the monkey hiding on the mountain peak and making faces at himself, and decided to poison him.

  They added the poison to the food and threw it to the monkeys. Sure enough, about a dozen of them died.

However, the rest of the monkeys were even angrier. Even monkeys from other mountain tops came over, condescendingly threw stones at them, and made noises in the dead of night to disturb the sleep of officers and soldiers. Tossing burning twigs.

   Fortunately, the sentries took strict precautions, which prevented the monkey from succeeding again.

   But in this way, everyone's spirits are tense, they can't sleep well at night, and they don't have energy during the day. If casualties are not counted in this battle between humans and monkeys, the monkeys still have the upper hand. After all, there is only one way to be a thief for a long time, and there is no reason to be a thief for a long time.

   Besides, Chu Jun also said that if the beacon fire is ignited by mistake again, all the officers and soldiers in the checkpoint will lose their heads.

   Leaders only give orders, say that this is not possible and that must be done, the people below have to do it if they can’t do it, and the top only wants results.

  Then how do we do it?

  The guard was also driven into a hurry, and made a decision that would hurt his descendants——

   Cover the Beacon Tower!

  The specific method is to find a customs clearance businessman to get a large piece of tarpaulin and sew it together, cover it on the beacon stove of the beacon tower, then apply a layer of plaster, and then sprinkle a thick layer of sand.

  Of course they did the test on flat ground, and the guard personally threw a few torches on it.

   Very good, non-flammable.

   There is plenty of time for them to put out the torches calmly.

  The most important thing is to save money, which is a hundred times a hundred times cheaper than opening an enchantment.

  According to the rules, this is of course not acceptable, but with the threat of beheading, who can still control the usual rules?

   This is called a threat at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

   Anyway, you have to pass the above level first.

  So the big canvas cover was put on the beacon tower.

  The palace envoy sent by the royal palace to supervise suddenly came, and was furious when they saw them doing this: "How can this work, withdraw!"

  The guard asked him to stay and watch for half the night.

   Sure enough, in the middle of the night, the monkeys came to set fire in groups.

  The burning twig was thrown on the sand cover, extinguished, and could not be ignited.

  The monkeys screamed in anger, and the officers and soldiers below laughed, finally venting their anger and revenge.

   "If the enemy comes from outside the pass, we will still have time to close the cover." The guard begged the palace envoy, "Otherwise, if the cover is removed now, the flames will rise again, and our lives will be lost."

  The palace envoy nodded again and again: "You are very reasonable. Remove the cover."

   "Elder-in-law!"

   "Your Majesty ordered our family to supervise the Beacon Tower, and we must make sure that everything is normal here!"

  After passing the test, the king will blame us later, and we can't get rid of it. Okay, stop talking nonsense, and quickly withdraw. "

  The guard had no choice but to order someone to remove the Sha Gai, and scolded the dead **** a hundred times in his heart.

  No one noticed, someone hid in the night on the mountain peak, took a panoramic view of these things, and then handed a lot of dates to the monkeys who were rushing.

  The jujubes are big and sweet, and the monkeys eat them happily.

   This person is Lao Yu, a temporary new member of He Lingchuan's team. He made gestures and said "uh" loudly, and he was able to communicate with the monkey.

   Even if the guards below heard it, they thought it was a monkey calling.

   Another two days.

  Longhougang was safe and sound, but the monkey suffered a setback and seemed to stop coming. So the palace envoy's supervision ended, and he hurriedly replied.

  As soon as he left, the guard of Longmao Gate heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly said to his opponent: "Cover the beacon stove!"

   "My lord?" Didn't the envoy refuse to let me go?

   "He can return to the palace after his mission is over, and we still have to guard here. Another accident has nothing to do with him, but we will lose our heads." The guard sneered, "If it were you, how would you choose?"

  So everyone worked together to cover the beacon stove. Everyone knew that the day after tomorrow would be the enthronement ceremony of the new king. At this critical moment, no accidents should happen again.

   Panlong City South Gate.

  A large number of people are gathering, and countless torches will reflect the place like day.

  Zhong Shengguang stood up, drew his sword to the sky with a clang, and began a passionate speech.

   There is no doubt that Zhong Shengguang is far more appealing and appealing than General Nan Ke.

  His mobilization was interrupted several times by cheers from the audience.

  The audience was frantic. Everyone listening below felt their blood boil, wishing to rush out and kill eight hundred enemies.

  「Spiritual rain is coming!」

  The sky began to rain lightly.

   Sun Huping also exposed this move when he mobilized the soldiers of Heishui City to go to the desert, but the range of rain was not so wide.

  The more than 30,000 members of the Panlong City Army who went out this time, each received the spiritual rain empowerment, only to feel lighter, stronger, breathe more freely, and have higher fighting spirit.

   This is how the Red General used the Yuanli of Panlong City to ensure that the soldiers were evenly covered by the rain and dew.

   "Half a month later, you will have a whole sheep feast and drink Fengquan wine in the capital of Xiyun Kingdom to celebrate our great victory!" Zhong Shengguang's voice resounded through the audience, "Now, let's go!"

  Fengquan wine is a specialty of Xixiang, and the price of selling it in Panlong City is not low, not everyone can afford it.

   All the soldiers shouted, turned collectively, and headed out of the city gate.

  The civilians cheered and threw flowers to the soldiers.
