Human Shackles

Chapter 87 Ironwood Castle (2)

Luo Kai climbed onto a coal truck, hid under the truck and sneaked into the fortress. He thought the military base would be very solemn, but after entering, he discovered that the logistics supply area he was in was more like a lively gathering place. There are many restaurants, bars, and even barbecue stalls in the city.

Luo Kai was wearing a military uniform and was not conspicuous in the crowd. He walked around in a circle and was aroused by the cumin aroma of barbecue. He spent half a month drinking blood in the mountains and was desperate for the taste of salt. I checked my pockets, but I didn't have a penny on me. I did have a gun and a short knife, but I didn't know if they were worth anything.

When he was thinking about how to sell it, he suddenly saw an acquaintance, Lao Fu from Blackstone Heavy Industries. His eyes lit up and he immediately followed him.

Lao Fu was very familiar with this place and greeted him with a smile no matter where he went. Finally, he walked into a small restaurant.

Luo Kai followed calmly to the accommodation area on the second floor. It wasn't until he saw Lao Fu taking out the key and trying to open the door that he stepped over and patted him on the shoulder.

Lao Fu was startled. His first action was to draw his gun, but he felt that the pistol had been snatched away from him as soon as his wrist tightened. When he turned around, he saw a young soldier holding a pistol and smiling at him. He said in surprise: "Little Luo" ! "

Luo Kai smiled and stuffed the pistol into his arms: "Old Fu, your skills have deteriorated!"

Lao Fu took the gun, punched him in the chest happily, and said, "You brat scared me to death. Do you know how worried Xiao Zhuo has been in the past few months since you were missing!"

Luo Kai felt his head warm and said with a smile: "Is Xiaozhuo okay?"

"Xiao Zhuo is fine, come in and speak slowly."

Lao Fu led him into the room with some excitement, looked him up and down, and said in surprise: "Xiao Luo, you...how did you become like this? Why...why are you still a soldier?"

Luo Kai sighed. It was better not to let others know what he was going through. He shook his head and said, "I encountered some bad things. It's hard to explain in words. It's okay not to talk about it. Lao Fu, I'm starving to death. Please treat me to a meal."

"Come on, let's go down and eat."

The hotel lobby was full of customers and very noisy. Several people in brown clothes caught Luo Kai's attention. Their clothes were all embroidered with a burning clown face. They were all muscular and cold-eyed. There is a sinister aura.

Luo Kai stared at it and felt that the clown logo looked familiar. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that it was a circus performance he had seen in his previous life. The circus logo at that time was a burning clown face.

Sensing Luo Kai's gaze, one of the bald men glared at him fiercely and raised his middle finger. If he was a young man, he might get into a fight because of this. Fortunately, Luo Kai was open-minded and didn't want to What was the dispute about? He turned to Lao Fu and asked, "Who are these?"

Lao Fu looked at it and knew that Luo Kai had a free and easy personality and would not care about these provocations, so he said: "They are mercenaries from the Hunter Guild, um... they seem to be from the Sun Mercenary Group, good guy, the big lord is really willing to spend money. , the price charged by the Sun Mercenary Group is very high!”

"mercenary?"

"Well, they are a group of desperadoes who only recognize money and not people."

Ordering a table of food, the two of them chatted while eating. Lao Fu came to escort military weapons on behalf of Blackstone Heavy Industries. Luo Kai learned about the current situation from his mouth.

The Xingma Kingdom has three large bases in the Tiehengshan War Zone, with a total of 200,000 troops assembled. Among them, Tiemubao is the largest base, where the main force of 100,000 tiger soul troops is stationed, responsible for the attack. The other two are Pingshan Port and Hulukou. It is mainly for collaborative defense. Pingshan Port is a small military port. Since Nanzhao is a landlocked country and has no navy, the important military supplies of Xingma Kingdom are transported by sea. This is why the great lord Duke Ivan insists on recruiting dragon shark pirates. The reason is that the other place is a narrow pass called Hulukou, which can prevent Nanzhao from attacking from the flank.

When the scale of the war becomes larger and larger, comprehensive national strength becomes the only factor that determines victory or defeat. The domestic situation of Nanzhao Kingdom is much better than that of Xingma Kingdom. It has a large population, rich resources, domestic people are relatively wealthy, and it is far away from the center of civilization. The Eastern Yuan Dynasty was very close, and its military technology was extremely advanced. Large-scale fuel-burning locomotives had become popular in the military. If the terrain of Mount Tieheng hadn't restricted the performance of armored vehicles, Xingma Kingdom would no longer be an opponent.

Although Nanzhao's national power is far stronger than that of Xingma, the two countries have always been on the defensive in wars over the years. This involves geographical determinism. The worse the external living conditions of human beings, the more martial and aggressive they will be. Strong, Xingma Kingdom has coveted the wealthy Nanzhao Kingdom for a long time. Almost every great lord will launch a war, bent on seizing control of Tieheng Mountain.

The same is true for this war. Since the two countries began to friction last year, there have been several large-scale conflicts, with casualties on each other. Relatively speaking, the Stars and Horses have taken advantage because they are the attackers. Currently, the two countries mainly revolve around A battle began for a commanding height called White Bone Ridge. After several battles, each suffered tens of thousands of casualties.

While Luo Kai was devouring the food, he listened to Lao Fu's analysis of the battlefield situation, wondering whether to give him the information directly. Blackstone Heavy Industry had a deep connection with the Grand Lord's Mansion, and Lao Fu must have a way to meet Lord Yi Wen.

"Old Fu, tell me about the senior generals of the Star Horse Country military."

Lao Fu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Besides the various provincial armies, the most famous in Xingma Kingdom is the Hu Po Army, a direct lineage of the great lord. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. The general of the Hu Po Army is Chang Yuan Shang. General, not only is he proficient in strategy, but he is also extremely accomplished in physical arts. He is a high-level physical practitioner in the name of the Physical Arts Association, and he is still young. He is very likely to go further in the future!"

"Go one step further?" Luo Kai didn't understand what it meant. Is there a realm above the physical warrior?

Lao Fu looked around mysteriously and lowered his voice: "The next step is to become a master, which is called a physical master! The Taishu Association has regulations that once you become a physical master, you are not allowed to intervene in the internal battles of human beings, so General Chang's specific No one knows its strength.”

Luo Kai couldn't help but think of Thirteen. As his understanding of physical skills became deeper and deeper, he also realized more and more how powerful Thirteen was. It seemed that Thirteen was probably a physical master.

"There is another army called the Wolf Soul Army, which is also the direct army of the great lord. It has a small number of soldiers, only about 50,000. It is stationed in Hulukou all year round. The leader of the army is named Xu Minglang. He is a strange person. It is said that he has a special ability. His ability allows him to hear all sounds within a hundred miles!"

Luo Kai hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Is there anyone named Zhang Mao among the senior military generals?"

Lao Fu looked at him in surprise, nodded and said, "Yes, General Zhang is the Minister of Armaments, and we, the military, industrial and commercial groups, have to deal with him."

Luo Kai still wanted to ask in detail, but a long and harsh air defense siren suddenly sounded, followed by the whizzing sound of falling artillery shells and violent explosions. A dense number of bombs exploded around the hotel. In an instant, the ground shook, and the ceiling shook. It kept falling off, and a huge gap was opened in the cement wall by shrapnel. A businessman who was approaching was torn apart by the flying shrapnel before he could react.

Luo Xin's heart beat faster and he dodged a concrete slab falling above his head. The war came so unexpectedly. The opponent's bombing area is here, and he must leave immediately!
