Chapter 1577 1549. Nearing
"Maybe for a long time, I will rely on the protection of the three great masters of Dao. Please rest assured, I am still very confident in iron smelting and forging. Please treat me as a local knife maker in the future!"
Qian Zifeng said in such a joyful way, and Lan En had no objection.
After all, if you drive someone away in this situation, it seems that it is no different from killing her directly.
And those who dare to travel and study in these years are generally leaders in the industry, or they are simply some kind of cruel people.
However, after Lan En confirmed in the default form, Qian Zifeng did not leave with confidence. Instead, he approached again with some caution and hesitation and spoke in a low voice. "That Lord Lane, you see, I'm going to be a knife maker for Daming in Mino Country. After you attacked monsters in the Great Forging Furnace, did you see anything strange?"
"Single?" Lane lowered his head and asked. "What's the specific?"
"That's it." Qian Zifeng gritted his teeth and lowered his voice even more. "A omelette? The omelette that can bring higher heat! I have heard of the large forging furnace on Mount Taishan. In fact, it is a Vulcan omelette that can maintain that high temperature easily and cheaply!"
"This time I came to Mount Taishan to try to see how this thing is maintained. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing."
Lan En didn't listen to Qian Zifeng's other complaints. But the other party's pursuit of unknown new technology made him appreciate it. "What do you mean is that with the Vulcan gueju, will the quality of things you can forge better?"
"Absolutely! The basis of forging is the temperature of ore and flame!"
"Then let it go."
Then let it go."
The fiery red gueju that you got from Yan Yanluo was taken out from the gap between the leather belt and the armor by Lan En, and threw it to Qian Zifeng.
In Japan, magata is a ritual instrument and most of them need to be used in rituals to show its functions.
He was busy just by studying his [Five Directions and Five Elements Body Light] and magic system, and he didn't have much energy to divide it into ritual knowledge.
When you meet someone who knows what you know, it doesn’t feel a pity after you hand it over.
He hasn't seen Qian Zifeng's forging skills yet, so he is quite curious about it.
"Is it just handed over to me?" Qian Zifeng looked overjoyed and surprised, but immediately put away the Vulcan Gouyu, "Please rest assured! I will definitely make good use of it!"
After leaving the village of Takan Mountain, the knife craftsmen, like war refugees, quickly turned back to the woods at the foot of Takan Mountain under Lan En, and came to the rear of the army attacking Takan Mountain.
After more than ten minutes after the knife maker arrived, the army, which had already attacked the first layer of defense on Mount Tai, and had strong firepower and surging momentum, suddenly retreated.
The orderly and quick movements even made the guards in the mountains even more nervous.
In his opinion, this is probably the opponent who is accumulating strength and preparing to rush up with a more terrifying force scale and firepower.
Although the guards of Mount Tae-Yuan could not understand how such a large-scale army came to the foot of Mount Tae-Yuan without any slightest concealment.
But there is no other way at the moment. Let’s teach the lesson of tenacious resistance first.
Even if you are defeated later, you can say that you have a decent statement.
But the guard general cheered up and made wishes to his subordinates and warriors, and issued a lot of copper coins and silver verdicts in the battle, which stabilized the morale and even improved it, and rushed to transfer all the monsters that were originally distributed across the mountain to the front line.
But now, blood has been released and orders have been issued. But after two consecutive hours, the enemy at the foot of the mountain rushed up again.
It seems that the fierce attack that lasted only half an hour before was an illusion.
But on the first line of defense on the mountain, the smell of gunpowder, the fishy smell of human blood, and the feather arrows on the ground seemed absurd. "Did they retreat?"
The guard heard the people below talking faintly.
He subconsciously began to maintain military discipline: "Silent! No noise!"
But turned his head, and it seemed that he suddenly remembered something. He whispered a few words by the warrior beside him.
Not long after, a team of feet led by the team to the large forging furnace on the second floor of Mount Tai. The other team began to carefully touch the mountain.
But two hours ago, the attacking troops had already been transferred and evacuated under Lan En's command.
——
Two days after the attack on Mount Tai, Iwamura City.
Although the army set out from Lushan Castle is even more behind in position than Saito Yoshiro's monster army.
However, because of human organizational strength and legion-level movement speed, they are still far superior to the disorderly monsters.
So under the leadership of Akechi Mitsuhide, they followed the road map obtained by Lan Eun's previous investigation and avoided the distribution range of the monsters' scattered marching from the side.
Then he was one step ahead and arrived at Iwamura Castle and met with the Saito Road in the city.
But they are only one step ahead.
Standing on the wall, a wooden arrow tower that expanded to a height, Fujiro's palms were already sweating. The arrow tower built with solid wood and the arrow tower, and the city built with stone and rammed earth, supported by the palm of your hand, seemed to have lost the ability to provide people with a sense of security.
Mino recently didn't know if it was because of the excessive evil spirit, and the weather has never been very good.
The light at dawn and dusk shows an ominous blood red, and the scene at the middle of the sun is often accompanied by clouds.
There were no clouds today, but in front of Yancuncheng, the huge [often dark] formed by a large group of monsters was gradually scattered and slow, but the direction was still unchanged towards it.
The curtain that dyed everything in the world into a gloomy black and white curtain made people feel heavier.
A piece of mimeat grows outside the city of Yancuncheng. This withered and yellow mimeat will emit a dreamy golden reflection under the sunlight at dusk.
This is considered a symbol of the spiritual energy of the plant Miscellaneous, and at dusk, it is called the "Moment of the Demon".
There is indeed no cloud today.
But when the sun shines on the grass, the fine golden light reflected does not bring the warmth and peace of mind of the sun, but only makes people feel gloomy and deep.
Now, Fujiro is not the only one who is panicked in Iwamura.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
In the Tianshou Pavilion, in the hall where Lan En had a banquet, the city lord Ando Momozumi and his ex-lord Saito Dao San were drinking together in a dull atmosphere.
This wine was not caused by the two of them enjoying themselves at this critical moment, but to welcome reinforcements from Lushan City, from the perspective of etiquette and morale.
It's a pity that there are no generals in the city now.
Akichihide Mitsuhide, Fuji Yoshiro, and Takenaka Half-Baiwei who were supposed to attend must first properly arrange reinforcements to station and assist in the defense of Iwamura before they can just enter the seat later.
Now there are only two old guys left, so naturally it looks desolate and boring. "Sir Dao San." Ando Mori looked up depressedly and took a sip of the wine, as if he was complaining with the alcohol, "You are not as good as you, take advantage of the previous few days to see if you can withdraw. Now you are completely blocked here."
Sato Saito, who was sitting in the upper seat, still looked as heroic as he had when he met Lan En more than two months ago.
The beard like a steel needle, bald head, strong body.
But looking closely, my beard is already gray.
Hearing the old guy's words as if he was drinking, Saito Dosan's eyelids slightly raised under the cover of the wine glass and looked at him.
It was just this glance that made Ando Mori's body clever, and he suddenly stopped drinking and sat down properly.
The atmosphere in the hall was silenced for a while, Saito Daosan swallowed the drink before speaking.
"Don't be stupid, Ando."
The gloomy and sharp atmosphere like a snake enveloped Ando Moriju. In his invisible vision, [White Viper] was already coiled around Saito Dao San.
"Do you think that as long as I escaped in a panic when I still had a chance a few days ago, your Iwamura Castle can be kept. You old slave of money?"
Saito Daosan has worked with Ando Mori for decades. This guy complained that he had missed the opportunity to retreat, and it seemed like he was worried about his safety.
In fact, he just blamed him for leading the war to his own city. "Yilong, she has already taken the blame for the world and began to control monsters. After killing me, she must conquer the entire Mino area. You can avoid one wave, but you can't avoid two waves." As she said that, Saito Dozo showed a sarcastic smile.
"Otherwise, you might as well submit to her. Be a colleague of the monsters? Then you will have no reputation and foothold in the entire Japanese archipelago?"
The first half of this sentence was still in a joking tone, and the second half turned into a stern scolding!
The Wu family attaches more importance to family name than blood.
Saito's scolding of Ando Moriju is completely in line with this value. If you really want to talk about it, you can even be known as "shocking".
Immediately, Ando Mori no longer dared to speak, so he had to lean over and bow down.
The reason why Saito Dosan scolded Ando Moriju was that he did not break through and escape when there was still a chance a few days ago.
If he is alone, he will naturally be easy to escape.
But the army and servants he brought with him were his last team and his last loyalty after his retirement.
Yilong is now rebelling and joins the monsters. If even this last loyalty cannot be maintained, how much confidence and firm can the other Mino family have to re-enter their strength to the retired previous generation of Saito Dosan?
Escape from his life is never difficult for Saito Dosan's ability.
But for the sake of life, I give up my ideals and obsessions and give up the fruits of my years of hard work. Which hero in the troubled times has not been planted to this extent?
