Chapter 255: Glimmer

The six generals were defeated, thousands of troops were lost, and the army fled in embarrassment, which can be described as the most tragic battle in the battle of Wohua Mountain.

After this battle, Liang Jin led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat to the west of the city, the Qin army pursued and killed, just when Liang Jin was desperate and planned to fight with their lives, the on-demand rush to a lot of armor soldiers, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, this is the city soldiers of the sheep tower wind.

Yangtafeng originally had 5,000 city soldiers, but now there are 20,000 or 30,000 armor soldiers flocking to the Qin army, and after a little thought, Liang Jin and others know the reason, it must be that the people of Jiaozhi City spontaneously formed an army, and under the armor and weapons in the warehouse, they became a new army.

Liang Jin and a few people continued to withdraw with the hundred remnants of Wohua Mountain, but they saw that the 20,000 armor soldiers were followed by many people with farm tools, about 20,000 people, Yang Tafeng was able to call on the people to form such an army at this time, it can really be said that those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

It's just that that's not enough.

The army under Pang Lu has undergone strict training and has long since transformed into a tiger and wolf army, even if the armored soldiers of Wohua Mountain have not taken advantage, how can these soldiers dressed as ordinary people be able to stop the 50,000 Qin army? Merely balancing in numbers has no effect at all, and it is only a matter of time before the Qin army wants the army composed of these people to break up.

All the people and soldiers ignored Liang Jin and the others, until finally a general with a sword at his waist came, arched his hand slightly at a few people, and said: "I am the commander of the city lord's personal guard, and I was ordered to control the attack and defense of this army first, and everyone in Wohua Mountain blocked the first line of the city moat, and the people of Jiaozhi City saw it, and the city lord said that you should rest in the rear first, and the rest will be handed over to us." ”

Liang Jin frowned slightly, covered his chest and coughed a few times, and said: "Most of your troops are ordinary people, what is the measurement of Yangta Feng, let them come to meet the Pang Lu army, this is tantamount to death?"

The commander of the guards said: "Second commander, please rest assured, these people have joined the army spontaneously, no one has forced them, this is also the idea of the city lord, if people don't resist it, the people of this city will be finished." ”

Liang Jindao scolded angrily: "Then how long do you think these people can stop the Qin army?"

The commander of the guards said: "The city lord said, it can reach a day and a half at the longest. ”

A day and a half?

Losing 50,000 people in a day and a half, this figure makes Liang Jin and them very uncomfortable, but there seems to be no better way, if they can't exchange these lives for these times, then their entire city will become a wasteland.

Jiang Ming said loudly: "Where is the Yang Ta Feng at the moment?"

The commander of the guards said, "The last general doesn't know, but the city lord must be planning how to let us survive." ”

This Commander of the Guards had never doubted what would happen if Yang Tafeng fled alone at this time, what kind of trust was this?

Jiang Ming frowned and was silent.

I saw that the commander of the personal guard grinned, as if he didn't know that there was the Shura Purgatory in front of him, and said loudly: "A few commanders, the last general will leave first, and I still have to command my soldiers to fight, so I have no time to chat with a few people." ”

The crowd watched the commander depart, watched the distant battlefield seem to be slowly blocked, and looked at the sky that seemed to change color, and there were many sighs.

In this world, there are always many people who are willing to give their lives to seek the well-being of the living, they don't want to live, they don't want to die, they are not afraid of death, but in many cases, they have to go to the soup, this is their fate, but also their tragedy.

Liang Jin and the others withdrew to the west of the city with a hundred remnants of the army, bowing their heads, not because they lost the battle, but because they saw the sacrifice of those people, luxurious and simple, which was too sad.

Just as he was about to approach the complex, Liang Jin ordered everyone to rest and adjust on the spot, at least they had a day and a half to slow down.

That battle cost them a lot of troops, and even Liang Jin and several people were extremely seriously injured, if they didn't get a rest, they would really lose their combat effectiveness, and they never felt that time would be so precious.

Liang Jin and Zhu Gai fought a battle, which was originally regarded as a chess opponent, and with his own mastery of the hammer and the long lance, he could completely compete with Zhu Gai, but when he withdrew, he was pursued by Lou Zhong and Su Jie. Originally, although he couldn't defeat the two of them in normal times, he at least had the strength to fight, but that was because he had been consumed by Zhu Gai and had no strength, if he hadn't fled desperately, maybe he would really be killed there by the two. But Rao is like this, Liang Jin was almost stabbed in the chest by Lou Zhong's silver spear, and the injury was really not shallow.

Meng Lang fought with the two martial arts masters head-on, and the consequences were naturally obvious, but Meng Lang had the intention to keep a hand, except for some flesh wounds, there were no other injuries, which was the lightest among the six. And Luo Hu is just the opposite, he used all his strength in the battle with Kou Xiuyong, and he did not have the slightest advantage, but he was suppressed by the ginseng spirit, and was almost stabbed in the throat by Kou Xiuyong, but fortunately, he reacted in time and fled, and luckily escaped the catastrophe, but the injuries on his body were also extremely serious, and most of them were internal injuries in the battle, which were extremely difficult to recuperate.

Jiang Ming fought against Qiong Leshuang, he didn't expect Qiong Leshuang to make progress again, and he was able to completely suppress him, and he seemed to be intent on revenge for Lin Han's humiliation last time, and he didn't attack at all, which made Jiang Ming angry, and he could only lose in the end.

As for Chu Hong's close battle against Sun Huan, he was beaten all over his body, but Chu Hong was the most ambitious of the six, he shot an arrow when he was seriously injured and fell to the ground, which was actually a small victory. And Lin Han faced an enemy who was impossible to defeat, and he also didn't get any advantage, if he hadn't escaped early, this life would have been taken away by Pang Lu, who had passive killing intent.

Jiang Ming took out a jade bottle from his arms, which he had stored in the spiritual space for backup, but today he did take it out, shook out a few pills from it, and threw them towards several people, without too much explanation, only with a miserable smile, and said: "The last few, take it to recover from your injuries earlier." ”

Luo Hu took the cyan pill in his hand and looked at it, and said, "This doesn't seem to be the red phosphorus pill in the past?"

Jiang Ming said: "It's really not, the Red Phosphorus Pill is too expensive, I don't have that much money, and now these are all used to be kept in reserve, and now the people in the seventh act of the Qianfeng Inn are all gone, even if you have money, you can't buy these best pills." ”

Jiang Ming shook one out of his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, but Chu Hong found that he was not taking a cyan pill, but a black pill like him, so Chu Hong asked, "Then what are you taking?"

Jiang Ming said: "The four of you are all Luo He Ning Bi Dan, which is better than the Blood Melting Bone Cleansing Pill between me and Meng Lang, the reason is that Meng Lang is the least injured, and I have a stronger recovery ability, take it quickly, these two pills are not as effective as the Red Phosphorus Pill, and there is no way for us to recover the strength of our heyday, so we have to hurry up." ”

When Jiang Ming went to the Qianfeng Inn to buy healing pills from Chang An, Chang An took out these three pills, the Red Phosphorus Pill was the most expensive, the Luo Er Ning Bi Pill was a 600,000 silver, and the Melting Blood Bone Cleansing Pill was 100,000 silver.

At the beginning of the city, Hu Jiangli gave him Xiao Ming Pill in order to save Jiang Ming, this kind of pill with earth-shattering effects also has a certain healing effect on Yuan Knot damage, and it is a real miracle medicine. After inquiring at the Qianfeng Inn, it was also confirmed, and its value was far from being comparable to a few taels of gold, so Jiang Ming could only choose the second-class red phosphorus pill, but Rao was so, the effect of this pill made Jiang Ming sigh, and after that, he bought a few Luo He Ning Bi Dan and the Blood-Melting Bone Cleansing Pill again for emergencies, these life-saving things are naturally more important than money. But he only had these few, and the reason why he didn't use them was just because there were no superfluous, and after the six people used them up, he only had two Melting Blood Bone Cleansing Pills left.

Jiang Ming's coarse and detailed statement made several people feel a lot more relieved, but there were still a lot of speculations, Lin Han knew Jiang Ming best, and he already understood that he was very likely to have no such elixir, but there was no other way at the moment, so he could only take the elixir and adjust it slightly.

The sound of killing still lingered in his ears, even though the battlefield in the distance could no longer be heard here, Jiang Ming's closed eyes still recalled the bloody killing on the battlefield.

Pang Lu adhered to his heart, for the sake of the overall situation, in order to achieve peace and stability for the majority of people, he did not hesitate to carry out the slaughter of the city, in his opinion he was not wrong.

So who is wrong, is it Pang Lu? or is it this troubled world?

Jiang Ming didn't understand the meaning, secretly operated the fragments of the Wasted Source Ding, and used the power of agitation to regulate his injuries, everything was not over, Wohua Mountain was still the main force of the Acropolis.

Time gradually faded, and the sky darkened, but there were soldiers shouting and waking up a few people, but they saw a large number of people walking towards them, actually holding all kinds of food, which made the remnants of Wohua Mountain, who had been hungry all day, at least have something to fill.

Liang Jin stepped forward to thank them, and said some polite words, which was able to make the people of Jiaozhi City recognize them, and sent these foods, which showed that Wohuashan was no longer the wicked people in their eyes, this change at least made Liang Jin a few people happy, he said: "Thank you, we have accepted your kindness, but now our hundred brothers have to take a break first...... "Sanjiu Chinese Net."

An old man who was nearly sixty years old stepped forward to hold Liang Jin's hand and said: "The general is polite, Wohua Mountain is now in the same boat with us, fighting on the front line, we are all looking at it, these things are also our reward for the soldiers, the city lord of Yangta Feng even told us that if we want to survive this war, we hundreds of thousands of people have to rely on the soldiers of Wohua Mountain." ”

Hearing this, Liang Jin and the others were all hesitant, and Liang Jin stepped forward and said, "This old man, I don't know where the Sheep Tower Wind City Lord is at this time?"

This is the second time Liang Jin has asked this question.

But he saw the old man and said: "We really don't know where the city lord of Yangta Feng is, but I think the city lord should be looking for a way to help us get out of danger." ”

The conversation came to an abrupt end.

After these people left, more than 200 soldiers in Wohua Mountain began to use food, and Liang Jin also ate a few bites of steamed buns, and began to rest again.

"Mr. Zhu Wu, why are you here?"

I saw Zhu Wu standing in front of a few people, but his eyes glanced at Jiang Ming, and said, "Do you know where the Yangta Wind is?"

Jiang Ming stood up, frowned, and said, "You don't know, haven't you been guarding Yangtafeng's side? Why are you still asking us now?"

Only six of the leaders of Wohua Mountain know the identity and martial arts realm of Zhu Yao, and everyone has a lot of respect for Zhu Wu, whether it is that he was the county guard of the Qin Dynasty in the past, or now he is a martial arts master, which identity is worthy of their use of the word sir, but only Jiang Ming has no respect at all.

Zhu Wu cared all about this, and only said: "Ever since I fought with Pang Lu in front of the city gate, I have been looking for Yangta Feng, but I have searched all the places where he may go, but I have not seen any trace of him. ”

"Oh?" Jiang Ming showed a puzzled look, and Chu Hong on the side said in a low voice: "You haven't come back at that time, this matter is true, but at that time, Yang Tafeng appeared on the city wall with us, and then he seemed to realize that the negotiation could not be successful, so he left early." ”

Jiang Ming frowned and said, "That's when you were negotiating, I saw Yangta Feng in that complex, and it was in the tenth room that went straight to the south entrance of the hall, but at that time, he was just sharing a few white cakes with his subordinates, and then preparing to organize a militia, and he didn't seem to show any other emotions, nor did he say anything to me." ”

Jiang Ming said all the concerns and details, and he didn't need to ask Zhu Wu many times, and Zhu Wu was even more worried, so he only said: "In this case, if you see him again, tell him that I will leave first if you keep your promise to me." ”

Jiang Ming didn't know what the promise in Zhu Xuan's mouth was, but he seemed to hear some questions, and hurriedly asked: "What are you afraid of, maybe Yang Tafeng has left Jiaozhi City now." ”

This is temptation.

Zhu Xuan turned around and said softly: "Impossible, he regards this city as more important than his own life, how can he give up this city to live independently? Even if I was clumsy and mislooked at him in the past, he will not forget his promise to me, do you know that there are other secret passages in this city?"

Dark passages?

Secret Path!

These two words had no effect on other people, but they were particularly special when they fell in Chu Hong's ears, and he remembered that when he met Huanziyu, he hid in a secret passage, and that secret passage led directly to the Jiaozhi Mountain Range, but at that time, he was seriously injured by Di Lang and fell unconscious, and he didn't know where the entrance was.

Jiang Ming said, "Are you so sure?"

Zhu Xuan looked at Jiang Ming coldly and said, "I'm just scared, he will do some elusive things for this city." ”

Zhu Yu turned around and left, without giving everyone a chance to guess and ask, and disappeared from everyone's eyes in a few flashes.

"You say, what do you mean by the elusive things in Zhu Xuan's mouth?" Jiang Ming asked.

"It may refer to a good meal before dying, after all, it has been saved for so many years. Lin Han replied with a smile.

It wasn't a joke in the first place, but at this time, it could ease the solemn atmosphere a little, and Liang Jin, Luo Hu, and Meng Lang also laughed along.

Only one person didn't laugh.

Chu Hong lowered his head and thought about something.

Jiang Ming raised his elbow and touched Chu Hong, and said, "What's the matter, why don't you laugh, so don't give face?"

But seeing Chu Hong raise his head, he immediately looked at everyone solemnly and said, "I have a way to escape from Jiaozhi City!"

The sky was dark, and the battle near the central altar seemed to have stopped, and the people couldn't imagine how the surviving city soldiers and militia there would spend the night, but they had a thousand people who followed Wohua Mountain to a place in the north of the city to find Chu Hong's so-called secret path.

A group of people and the soldiers of Wohua Mountain lit torches, and began to search in the place that had been turned into ruins, but it was difficult to find the secret passage, he didn't know where Huanziyu took him into the secret passage, so that he could shuttle all the way to the Jiaozhi Mountains, and the two subordinates were also killed, he could only look for it from the jewelry store where he met with Huanziyu at that time, but now the fire is burning, and the jewelry shop is not known, so he can only search within a general range.

Although he has used his memory to search, but he really doesn't know where the secret passage is, Huanziyu knows but he is not in Jiaozhi City, this is a dilemma, there are many of them, there are more than 1,000 people among the people who volunteer to come here to search, so many people are enough to search a large area, but the reason why the secret passage is a secret passage is because it is built underground and hidden, how can they find it so easily?

After two hours, it was almost late at night, but the search of the secret passage was fruitless, after all, the scope of the search was too vague, even if you really walked past the edge of the secret passage, you might not be able to find it.

Liang Jin said: "Eldest son, are you sure that the secret path is in this area?"

Chu Hong said: "Ziyu and I met in this area at the beginning, and the direction is naturally not wrong, but these ruins and alleys have long been unable to tell where they are, and I was about to fall into a coma at that time, and I don't remember where I entered the specific location." But I'm sure that Ziyu himself told me about this secret passage, and that it leads straight to the Cochin Mountains, and that once we find it, we'll be able to get out of danger. ”

Liang Jin, Luo Hu, Meng Lang, and Lin Han all frowned, although the accuracy of the news could be determined, but the specific location and structure were not known, and it was almost difficult to find that secret passage.

Jiang Ming asked, "Apart from you, does anyone else know about that secret passage?"

Chu Hong said: "Ziyu knows, but she can't help much, there are two subordinates, but they were already dead at that time." ”

Everyone was speechless and tired, and they felt that the hope of finding the secret path was extremely slim, so they began to put their hopes on preparing for battle after recovering from their injuries.

In addition to Luo Hu and Chu Hong, there are more than a dozen soldiers left behind to help continue the search, and these thousands of people are also chasing the last hope, and the others have begun to rest, and they will face the more dangerous battle tomorrow.
