If the half-beast army does not get off the boat, the defenders of the Nu River will not be stupid enough to rush out and fight with the giant warship of the half-beast army, Li Chuan also secretly thought in his heart that the enemy will not move and I will not move, but he still feels that something is wrong.

The half-beast army has already moved, but our army can only hold on to the ferry, this is not because the enemy does not move, but because the enemy moves and I can't understand it.

But judging from the situation of the offensive and defensive battles, the front half-beast army has not attacked for a long time, and delaying time is the most beneficial for the defenders, consolidating the defense, waiting for rear support, etc., delaying time is the best result for the defenders. But Li Chuan knew deeply that it was too late for the Zhenbei Army guarding Yumen Pass to come over at this time, and there were no reinforcements in Lancheng.

Judging from the current situation, the half-beast army has crossed the Nu River and Cangjiang River, so this is very beneficial to the attacking side, shorten the charging distance, and victory will naturally be in sight.

The Southwest Tiger Guards on the Nu River and the Forbidden Army on the embankment were all in full array, waiting for the enemy to launch their first charge to give them a hard blow, but the half-beast army was not dispatched for a long time.

The tense battle situation was about to break out, but the giant warship stopped on the bank of the Nu River for dozens of minutes, and after about half an hour, rows of rafts appeared again in the upper reaches of the Cangjiang River, each raft carrying ten half-orcs, slowly stopped on the bank of the Nu River, and then jumped off the raft, raised the shield, and launched the first charge towards the Cangjiang River crossing.

The battle began.

"Damn, it's the illusion of the half-beast army, this method is simply endless, and it is impossible to guard against it. Li Chuan watched the enemy charge to the swamp, and immediately approached the Cangjiang River crossing, so he had no choice but to wait for the forbidden army to strike three times with bows and arrows and then launched a counter-charge against the half-beast army again.

This time it was the first and second battalions of the Southwest Tiger Guards who counterattacked, and more than 20,000 people went down to the artificial swamp to face the first batch of 50,000 soldiers crossing the river from the Half-Beast Army.

The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, and whoever retreats at this time will be defeated, the half-beast army has been charging forward upright, and the Southwest Tiger Guards of the second battalion are also speeding up, but the swamp still greatly limits their speed, and the charge and counter-charge look like ants colliding together.

But from above, it was the scene of a red-black battle, the Southwest Tiger Guards were wearing red robes, half-beast army heads, and people wearing black robes, and neither side was wearing armor and armor, because both sides knew that the greater the weight carried in the swamp, the more difficult it was to move.

The sword light and sword shadows, the water splashed and the mud flew, the broken hands and feet gradually appeared on the battlefield, and the blood flowed down the water towards the Lancang River, dyeing most of the Lancang River into blood. But no one cared about this, the first batch of charging half-beast armies had not yet been wiped out, and the second group of half-beast armies crossed the river again and joined the battlefield.

Li Chuan raised his eyes and took a cursory look at the enemy's army with nearly 100,000 troops, and the Purple Country, which had always been unknown to the enemy's strength, finally had a new understanding of the Half-Beast Army, the strength of the Half-Beast Army was definitely above the defenders of the Nu River, if it was according to the normal marching logic, the strength of the Half-Beast Army attacking the Purple Country this time might be more than 500,000, or even more.

Li Chuan looked at the raft still walking back, his brows were furrowed, the enemy army had to continue to transport troops across the river, because the raft was far away on the shore and rowed back, the bows and arrows on the embankment, and the stone weapons were not needed, and this battle seemed to be only hard fighting.

"We can't allow the enemy to continue to accumulate forces, we must destroy these half-beast armies in the swamp as soon as possible, and force them back into the Raging River. Li Chuan planned in his heart.

"Lin Shu, you immediately mobilize 20,000 forbidden troops to participate in the battle and scatter the half-beast army and force it back!"

"Fang Wu Taishou, you lead all the Nu River defenders to join the battlefield!"

"In addition, I have a total of 100,000 troops of the first battalion of the Southwest Tiger Guard, no matter what, I must drive them into the Nu River before the next group of troops of the Half-Beast Army cross the river. "Li Chuan is well aware of the development trend of the situation, if they can't force the half-beast army back in time, then they occupy the shore shoal, there will be a steady stream of troops to send over, and what is more deadly is that the strength of the half-beast army is unknown, but from the current point of view, the strength is not under the Nu River.

There is only one result in this kind of battle, and that is that all the defenders of the Nu River will fight to the death in the swamp with the half-beast army, so the half-beast army must be repelled as soon as possible.

The 100,000 troops of the Purple Country suddenly joined the battlefield, and the swamp was no longer able to accommodate it, and the defenders of the Nu River instantly surrounded the half-beast army in the swamp, and then gradually narrowed the scope, and the battlefield became a one-sided situation, and the Purple Country formed a strangulation of the half-beast army.

The half-beast army is retreating one after another, the more dense the formation, the greater the density, the higher the defense, even if there are more than 100,000 people in the purple country, after all, the remaining half-beast army can not be completely wiped out, and the half-beast army is desperately guarding a shoal by the river.

Li Chuan looked at the rows of rafts that appeared again on the river, and he was anxious, the situation was macroscopic that the half-beast army was attacking and the Purple State army was defending, but in the small situation, it was the Purple State army attacking and the half-beast army defending.

If either side cannot attack, it will face the defeat of this battle.

The battle has been continuing, the Cangjiang River has been infused with blood, the half-beast army is still holding on to the arrival of their reinforcements, and the 100,000 Purple State army has been besieging the half-beast army with only tens of thousands for half an hour and still failed to defeat it, allowing the half-beast army to hold the Nu River shoal position.

Rows of rafts transported a group of half-beast troops again, but they were not in a hurry to land and fight, as if they were waiting for something.

Suddenly, the Purple Country's winged bird army that was helpless against the half-beast army in the sky appeared again, flying through the sky at a high speed, scattering thousands of arrows, whether it was friend or foe, there was no target to shoot indiscriminately, and in an instant, corpses kept falling on the swamp, but most of them were Purple Country soldiers.

When Li Chuan saw this scene, he instantly felt frightened and helpless, and muttered in his mouth: "This battle is going to be lost." ”

The soldiers of the Purple Kingdom still pounced forward under the high density of the winged birds, trying their best to force the half-beast army back, but the miserable sound of falling pieces made the imperial army suffer heavy losses, looking at this situation, Li Chuan hurriedly shouted: "Quick! Mingjin retreats!"

This is to give up the strategy of forcing back the half-beast army, and give up the Nu River shoal position to the half-beast army, then the defense of the Nu River will be more difficult, and the attack of the half-beast army will be easier.

Retreating, the half-beast army did not attack further, but continued to gather men and horses in the shallows of the Nu River.

Looking at more and more half-beast troops, the soldiers such as the Southwest Tiger Guards at the Cangjiang Ferry had serious expressions, and they were ready to face the attack of the half-beast army, and at this time they needed to be boosted by their morale before the battle.

"The soldiers of the Southwest Tiger Guard, on the other side of the river is a very difficult half-beast army, they are fierce, they have occupied the entire northeast homeland of the Purple Country at the cost of their lives! Behind us is the imperial capital Blue City, they want to go to the imperial capital to destroy our civilization for hundreds of years.

Soldiers, this is the Nu River, here is the Cangjiang River ferry, and here is the direct passage to the rear.

Home is in the rear, the country is in the rear, once the Cangjiang ferry is broken by the half-beast clan, the blue city has no danger to defend and can only rest on its laurels, and the family is broken and the country is destroyed in an instant.

For the sake of the home in the rear, for the country in the rear, the Cangjiang ferry must be held, even if it is killed in battle, this is the supreme glory of being a good man and a soldier. ”

After half a day, there were 200,000 increasing half-beast troops on the shallows, and this battle was going to be decided.

"Commander Li Chuan, retreat, if you don't retreat, no one will be able to stop you if you don't retreat until the half-beast army attacks. ”

That night, Lin Shu looked at the half-beast army that was still crossing the river, and he had already retreated.

"Commander Lin, if we retreat, there will be no way out for the Purple Kingdom!"

"You don't know what's going on in Blue City now, we can't have reinforcements, and the president wants us all to die here. "The forbidden army led by Lin Shu is in Blue City all the year round, and the situation is the most understood.

"Now that Your Majesty has just taken office, the power of the court is unstable, Yang Hua's heart is well known to passers-by, and it happened that the half-beast army invaded, first delayed the support for the war in the northeast, missed the best opportunity to resist, and then sent the two of us to intercept, look at the current enemy and our strength, there is only a dead end to defend it. Lin Shu shouted, he didn't want to die!

"If you can't defend it, you have to defend it, because we are the soldiers of the Purple Country, and we are also the last line of defense in Blue City!"

"If I had to choose a way to die, I'd rather die on the way to the charge. ”

After Li Chuan finished speaking, he walked out of the camp tent and frowned as he looked at the army of half-beasts that were still converging.

And Lin Shu also frowned, if there was a regret pill, he would definitely not come here to fight against the half-beast army, they were too terrible!

Fortunately, the losses of the forbidden army were not large, and most of them were injured by the Southwest Tiger Guards.

There is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, although the forbidden army has no losses, almost maintaining a complete 20,000 establishment, but the Southwest Tiger Guard has already suffered casualties, and there is obviously no chance of winning this battle, how can this be good?

Li Chuan couldn't sleep all night, until more than four o'clock in the morning, when the half-beast army was assembled, without any rectification, and pounced on the Cangjiang ferry in a large area.

Li Chuan rushed out of the camp tent as soon as possible, looked at the shoal, and the black oppression in the haze rushed from the shallows to the ferry dam like a mountain and a sea, so frightened that Lin Shu broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

Suddenly, the torches were bright, the forbidden army, all the soldiers of the Southwest Tiger Guard Army were ready, and even the soldiers under the command of Chen Ming, who had retreated from the northeast, were ready, waiting for the horn of the charge to blow at any time, at this moment they were facing the general attack of the half-beast army, if the first round could not be held, it would be difficult to organize a second decent resistance.

Around the Nu River, except for the dam and a large swamp on the shallows, there is basically no danger to defend, and you can only fight the half-beasts head-on.

In less than half an hour, the army of half-beasts had rushed through the swamp and was about to attack the shore.

At this time, the shouts of killing rose to the sky, and the Purple Army fully attacked it, and the two sides fought in the fog of the early morning.

Although the half-beast army was outnumbered, the Purple Army fought to the death, and the first wave of all-out general attack was blocked in this way, and the battle did not end until dawn.

The half-beast army crossed the river and came, all of them went into battle lightly, and their armor was naturally not comparable to that of the Purple Army, so the gap between the casualties between the two sides was not obvious.

At dawn, suddenly the sound of gold sounded, and the Purple Kingdom army actually withdrew back.

"Back defense, all back to the Cangjiang Dam bridge. ”

It has been fighting for nearly three hours in a row, and the soldiers are somewhat unbearable, and the number of the half-beast army is more than twice that of the Purple Army, so even if the Purple Army is exhausted, it will not be able to stop the attack of the half-beast army, Li Chuan has to turn the whole line to block the enemy's attack into a line of defense.

The soldiers watched the half-beast army attacking on all fronts gradually gather to the Cangjiang Dam bridge, and then looked at the comrades around them, almost all of them fell into a desperate situation.

Not long after, the half-beast army launched an attack on the dam bridge, the only remaining first-line defensive site on the Cangjiang River.

On the one hand, the momentum was rushing, as if ten thousand horses were galloping and suddenly attacking, and on the other hand, the momentum was sluggish, and it didn't take long for most of the bridge to be seized by the half-beast army.
