The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 1769: He was not crushed to death, but hacked to death

Barry gasped, hardly able to believe his eyes.

In this situation, there is only one possibility, that is, the Emperor of Xia had already led his people out of the plain before they launched the attack!

But the problem is that his plan was perfect and well-prepared.

Moreover, having experienced betrayal before, he selected only his trusted aides this time, and his soldiers were completely unaware of his plan.

"What's going on? Why is there no one here?!"

After painstakingly planning everything, in the end, it all came to nothing. The disappointment is simply unacceptable.

Behind him, Norman stepped forward and looked around, completely confused: "Strange, I saw them setting up camp with my own eyes before, why is there no one here?"

Barry frowned, lost in thought.

The things in the tent were not packed up, which meant that the Xia army's evacuation was extremely hasty. They must have suddenly received some news, so they left in a hurry.

"Is there a problem within the Xia Kingdom? Does the Emperor of Xia need to go back and solve it immediately?"

Until now, Barry had never considered that it might be that his plan had been leaked.

After all, he restricted all the information this time, and except for a few of his confidants, few of his generals knew the specific plan.

Including all troop movements, they were all normal movements. Ordinary soldiers didn’t even know where to go and could only follow orders.

In addition, there were numerous crisscrossing water caves under the plain, which he had accidentally learned from historical records. This plan was extremely secretive and it should have been impossible for it to be leaked.

What he didn't know was that among his soldiers, there was a strange man like Adolf.

Just through some troop movements and clues, one can guess what Barry wants to do.

"Gather all the troops and have the surrounding troops approach me."

Barry thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out the cause and effect, so he had to give up thinking.

He just felt sorry that he had worked so hard to arrange such a perfect situation, but it was ruined by some unknown unexpected event.

"Divide the army into three groups and march towards the surrounding areas. Even if the Emperor of Daxia escapes, the troops that marched there before cannot be let go..."

As he was talking, Barry suddenly stopped and stared at his feet.

It was a piece of rubble, plain and featureless.

But at this moment, it seemed to have life, beating slightly, and the amplitude was getting higher and higher.

This scene immediately attracted his attention.

"What's going on? This stone... is not good!"

The next moment, Barry's face turned pale as he thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.

He suddenly jumped onto the horse, pulled the reins, and started galloping while roaring angrily.

"Everyone! Evacuate immediately!"

"Abandon all the weight and evacuate immediately!"

The generals around were all confused when they saw their deputy commander like this, and had no idea what he was doing.

But everyone still loyally followed Barry's orders and began to prepare for evacuation.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late!

Boom!

Suddenly, the ground seemed to be hollowed out and collapsed suddenly.

The soldiers standing there fell into it without even a scream.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of rocks rolled down and buried them completely!

Seeing this, everyone was shocked.

"what happened?"

"Is there an earthquake?"

"It's a sinkhole, a sinkhole!"

Barry was horrified, filled with fear.

"Damn it! It's an underground water hole. Someone detonated the underground water hole!"

The scene just now was clearly the collapse of the supporting structure of the underground water cave, which caused the earthquake and made the stones jump like that.

Deep pits appeared one after another all around, and a large number of soldiers fell into them before they even had time to evacuate.

As for the soldiers who had already started the action, they also suffered heavy losses.

There was no pattern or warning for the appearance of holes in the ground. Often when you were running away, a hole would suddenly appear under your feet, and you wouldn't even have time to hide!

"Help! Help..."

"Ah! I don't want to die!"

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! There's a hole ahead!"

Countless screams and wails rang out on the plain, one after another, and almost every moment a soldier would fall into the cave.

Barry was very lucky. He fled all the way with his men and finally succeeded in reaching the edge of the plain.

Looking back, the plain was covered with dust and ruins.

The soldiers' wails and screams could be heard faintly from the dust and smoke, like groans from hell.

Barry's eyes were red, and he was filled with fear and anger.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on? Who is in charge of the blast?!"

He thought that the soldiers in charge of the blasting were unaware of the situation above and detonated the underground water cave again, causing this situation.

Norman beside him heard this and hurried forward and said urgently: "Master Barry, Solaman is in charge of this matter!"

"Call him over here! This bastard has killed so many of our soldiers!" Barry was furious, his right hand pressing tightly on the knight's sword at his waist, his heart full of murderous intent.

This landslide caused the loss of at least a quarter of his army.

The remaining soldiers were more or less injured, and the losses were heavy.

The most important thing is that this loss did not bring any gains, and not even a few soldiers from the Xia Kingdom were left alive. How could he not be angry?

Soon, several soldiers hurried over and knelt in front of Barry.

"Are you Solaman's men?" Barry's eyes were gloomy and he shouted, "Where is he? Let him come out to see me!"

The soldiers fell to their knees, trembling all over, and spoke fearfully.

"Your Excellency, General Solaman is already dead..."

"died?!"

Barry looked stunned as a corpse was carried out from behind by the soldiers and placed in front of him.

Judging from his appearance, it was his subordinate Solaman.

"Sir, when we found Lord Solaman, he was already dead in a cave closest to this place."

Barry dismounted and came to the corpse, feeling both angry and amused.

What kind of people are under his command! He was asked to be responsible for detonating the underground cave, but he didn't escape and was crushed to death!

"That's enough, take him away and bury him on the spot!"

The person was already dead, so Barry couldn't get angry no matter how angry he was.

Just as he turned around, he suddenly thought of Solaman's injuries. He quickly turned around, strode to the body, and squatted down to check.

It would have been fine if he hadn't checked, but once he did, he was shocked.

"Solaman was not crushed to death by the collapsed hole, but was hacked to death by someone!"
