"Brother, what are we going to do now? Xiao Meng wiped the blood from his cheek, looked at the man in front of him and asked.

Xiao Mu frowned and looked around, it was pitch black in the deep forest, and there was nothing but this deep night. The pursuers had not yet arrived, Xiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "All rest!"

Hearing this, many of the armor soldiers who were still on guard sat down on the spot one after another, most of them looked embarrassed, and their armor was stained with the blood of those who didn't know if it was themselves or others.

Most of these armor soldiers are not very old, they are newly recruited soldiers when Wei Lai first took over Ningzhou, and the training time is only a little more than a year, but they have only experienced several fierce battles, but none of them escaped. Although in the face of life and death, these recruits are inevitably a little afraid and panicked, but after all, they are already good compared to most soldiers in this world.

If they can survive this catastrophe, these little guys will be regarded as excellent Sanxiao Army.

Xiao Mu secretly thought about this in his heart, but together with such thoughts, he smiled bitterly and thought, "But it's a pity...... I'm afraid they'll have a hard time making it to that day......"

Xiao Mu still underestimated the terrible of Ghost Rong after all, although he had already estimated the strength of the other party to the greatest extent in his heart, but such an overestimation now seems to be underestimated - four days ago, after receiving Xu Yunian's request for help, Xiao Mu didn't think much about it and reorganized his soldiers and horses and went to Manhong Pass to rescue.

According to Xiao Mu's calculations, the other party seemed to want to cut off the connection between Manhongguan and the various ministries in Ningzhou, so as to swallow the important place of Manhongguan, and then attack all the way to Ningxiao City. And what the other party is focusing on guarding against should be the army in Jade Snow City, which is only a few hundred miles away from the Manhong Pass, after all, the main elite on paper in Ningzhou should all be here.

Therefore, in Xiao Mu's plan, he sent Sun Daren to Yuxue City to join Yue Pingqiu and others, and informed Yue Pingqiu and others of his inference, hoping that Yue Pingqiu would lead the army to make a feint attack on the west side of Manhong Pass and draw the other party's attention, while he could take these 50,000 recruits to attack the east side of the opponent, and strive to tear apart the opponent's encirclement in one fell swoop, and rescue Xu Trap and the 70,000 Zixiao army under him.

But it turned out that Xiao Mu thought too much about the ghost army that came from afar after all.

Originally, all the plans had not changed much from what Xiao Mu expected, at least the Jade Snow City side was very cooperative with his ideas. Yue Pingqiu is a veteran man, and he has sent an army for more than ten years to fight the ghost on the west side.

According to the news from over there, the main force of Ghost Rong has been attracted by the Sanxiao Army on the west side. But just when Xiao Mu launched an attack from the east according to the plan and was preparing to cooperate with Xu to break through, something strange happened.

An army of nearly 10,000 people suddenly appeared behind them and launched an attack on them. Because of the previous reason for cooperating with Xu Trapping's breakthrough, Xiao Mu chose to attack in the evening, but the night not only trapped the enemy's vision, but they were also obscured by the night.

Xiao Mu didn't even know what the situation of the big battle in the rear was, but the army was defeated in the blink of an eye.

"Brother, those ghost troops are strange, let's ......" Xiao Meng saw that after Xiao Mu issued the order for all to rest, he fell silent, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

Xiao Mu glanced up at his younger brother and asked, "You are taking care of the rear, how can you defeat you with only 10,000 troops?"

"Brother, you didn't see it

How strange are those ghostly soldiers, they are naked without armor, but the sword is difficult to cut through, even if they are lucky enough to be injured, but as long as they do not cut their heads, their combat power is still undiminished...... Just like the human corpses in Ningxiao City at the beginning, but compared to those human corpses, their combat power is more terrifying. ”

Xiao Meng replied like this, with a shocked look on his face, as if he still had lingering feelings about Fang Cai's situation.

Xiao Mu glanced at him deeply, his younger brother's temperament was a little out of the way, he had caused a lot of trouble in Ningxiao City at the beginning, but he had a clear grasp of the seriousness, at least in the face of the great right and wrong. Although there are many strange things in what he said at the moment, if those ghost warriors really have such strength, with their wolf ambitions, how can they be willing to be in a corner of peace, I am afraid that they have already made a comeback in Ningzhou.

"Is there any news from Commander Xu?" Xiao Mu asked again.

"Nope. When Xiao Meng heard this, he shook his head a little dejectedly, "The scouts sent out to inquire about the news were either in the hands of the Ghost Rong army, or they were beaten back, and none of them entered the enemy formation. ”

Xiao Mu, who heard this, nodded again, and then he lowered his head and muttered for a while, and his voice suddenly lowered: "This time I was reckless......

Xiao Mu said this, Xiao Meng was stunned when he heard this, in his memory, his brother was a very serious person, but at the same time he was also extremely confident, and he rarely seemed to make wrong decisions, so Xiao Meng had no chance to see him show such a lonely look.

In all fairness, for a long time, Xiao Meng didn't like such an excellent Xiao Mu, especially when Xiao Mu was often compared by his parents as a role model.

But at this moment, when Xiao Mu finally showed this appearance, his heart was inexplicably sour.

"Brother, it's not your fault! Ghost Rong must have used some evil method to create such an army. And there must be something strange about the 10,000-strong army that suddenly appeared behind us. Xiao Meng hurriedly comforted him at that time, trying to cheer up Xiao Mu with this.

Xiao Mu shook his head, stretched out his hand and suddenly pressed on Xiao Meng's shoulder, interrupting the other party's words: "Listen, Commander Xu and the 70,000 Zixiao army in his hands are in a worrying situation, we have made several shots, but we have not been saved, and now I am afraid that it is already more than auspicious, once the ghost Rong swallows up our 50,000 army, the next step will definitely be to launch a general attack on Jade Snow City." That is the hope of Ningzhou, and our father is now stationed there. ”

"Later, I will lead an elite team to feign a frontal death, and you will lead the main force to break through from the back and escape back to Ningxiao City!"

"At that time, I will pass on what I have seen and heard here back to Ningzhou, tell them everything that happened outside the Manhong Pass, and let them know that the matter has come to the time when Ningzhou is at stake. You have to mobilize the people who can be used in Ningzhou, unite with all the major soldiers, and integrate the army as quickly as possible, so that when the Ghost Rong army attacks Jade Snow City, you can contain it from the side or from behind! Only in this way can you buy enough time for Ningzhou! Wait until the King of Wei returns!"

"King Wei!?What's the use of him coming back!?Can he lead me to win this battle?!!" Xiao Meng asked with a frown.

Xiao Mu was about to say something when he heard this......

Several cold rays of light suddenly lit up from not far away, and with the muffled snort of several armor soldiers, blood light suddenly splashed.

"Enemy attack!" someone shouted loudly.

Then I saw several black shadows surging, and another piece of armor fell.

Seeing this, the two brothers' faces changed, and they had to end the topic.

"Don't panic!

"Formation!"

Xiao Mu got up and shouted loudly, and then raised his knife to kill, his cultivation had reached the Seven Realms, and even vaguely touched the threshold of the Holy Realm, although those black shadows could be majestic among these ordinary armor warriors, but they looked vulnerable in front of Xiao Mu.

I saw Xiao Mu put away the knife and fell, and several black shadows were cut down by his blade.

Those who were directly in a different place naturally fell to the ground and lost their breath. But those who were only killed by his long knife, even if the chest was opened by a bowl of the thickness of a bowl, and even the hands and feet were cut off, although their movements were damaged, they still attacked the surrounding armor soldiers again and again with red eyes.

Xiao Mu listened to what Xiao Meng said before, and felt that Xiao Meng's words were exaggerated about this matter, perhaps because the night was too thick to see the identity of the other party, and the fear of the rout of the army made a misjudgment, but at this moment, after seeing these ghost soldiers who were not afraid of death, Xiao Mu understood that what Xiao Meng said was true.

He frowned, and the long knife swung again, slashing off all the armorers.

On the other side, after a short period of panic, Xiao Meng organized people from all sides and began to fight back against these suddenly killed ghost soldiers.

The armor soldiers mustered up their courage, but those ghost soldiers hid in the darkness, constantly attacking like wild beasts, and at the same time, relying on their flexible figures, they fell back into the darkness with one miss, and again and again consumed the strength of the army brought by Xiao Mu.

This feeling is by no means too good, as if you are a fish on the board, waiting for the knife to harvest your life again and again, again and again, until you die.

Xiao Mu's brows furrowed, his unswaying divine sense made him clearly feel that there were more gloomy and cold aura in the depths of the dark dense forest that was constantly moving towards here, and he understood that the ghost soldiers in front of him who were causing them a lot of trouble were just the appetizers and vanguards of this great battle.

His face sank, and he swung out again, beheading several ghost soldiers who had come forward. Then he quickly retreated into the crowd and shouted at Xiao Meng.

"Hurry up, according to my plan, leave with the army, I'll cut off!"

"Brother, if you die, the dragons of Ningzhou have no leader! If you want to go, you can go! I'll cut it off!" Xiao Meng also waved his knife at that time and slashed down an attacking ghost soldier, and at the same time responded loudly towards Xiao Mu.

"Today's difficulties are all caused by me, how can I steal my life! You leave quickly, and if you find the King of Wei, you can avenge me!" Xiao Mu said this, and his body was full of qi for a while, and countless armor phantoms appeared behind him, and his qi was weak under the repeated battles, and at this moment, he used a killing move, obviously because he had a will to die in his heart, and wanted to buy time for everyone.

"What can King Wei do? If he comes back, will he be able to save Ningzhou!" Xiao Meng shouted dissatisfiedly.

Xiao Mu looked back at his younger brother with a confused face, looked at his red eyes, and was about to say something.

But at this moment, a high-pitched wolf howl rose from the darkness in the distance, and a snow-white sword light pierced the night and reached here, and then ......

A voice appeared in front of the crowd, he looked at the two Xiao Mu brothers with a smile, and said, "I'm here." ”

"You will not die before me. ”
