Chapter 158: A Defeat
At all times, the biggest victims of war are the people at the bottom. If there is an accident, then there are no people in this place.
Bingzhou was an important defensive town in Duanguo, and most of the residents in the city were family members of soldiers and generals and merchants who came to do their business, and they were more or less close people. As the so-called wealth and danger are sought, the electric king at first explicitly forbade it, not wanting to put the families of the generals in such a dangerous place. But he was a conceited man, and since there was no war for a long time, he stopped hindering them, and went with them.
The runes on the lookout took turns to drink the pottion, crushed the mud beads, blocked their mouths and noses with bundled dry medicine packets, drew their bows and arrows, and shot at the plague beasts scattered in the city. Cai Zhengyu held the medicine bowl and kept roaring: "Those things are afraid of fire, use fire, use fire quickly!" The soldiers hurriedly took out the cloth soaked in grease and put it on the arrow, and after igniting it, they shot downward, and the city of Bingzhou suddenly burst into flames. The ancient plague beasts with the plague flew around, and the powerful ox-like rampage, many giant bows were damaged, which made Jia Haifei feel distressed.
Elder Bing looked at the situation in Bingzhou and knew that the time had come, so he sent an order downward: "Second echelon, let's go!" The clansman in charge of the order on the wooden frame was excited, and repeated loudly downward. The second echelon is led by Elder Rong, Elder Candle and Elder Yu, Elder Candle is very good at controlling foreign beasts, and Elder Rong and Elder Yu are both warmongers, and their blood boils when they hear the word war, which is the most suitable as a vanguard.
Elder Rong's eyes lit up, and he was the first to jump onto the flying cowhide, and his fists flew up slowly, and the others quickly followed, except for the three elders and six hundred soldiers, the other more than three thousand hanging baskets were all one person and one beast. These strange beasts were collected by Elder Candle for many years, and they took a lot of effort, except for the two big and one small Gu Eagle that they had lent to the Blood King, the others were hidden in the underground cage, and they were never easily revealed.
Elder Candle organized the beasts into three teams, the first team was the ox army, a total of 1,320 heads, all of them were tall, fat and strong, and they were named because they were similar in appearance to oxen, the most of which were the oxen with long hair on all four limbs, there were 760 heads, and the others included 50 rhino ditches with blue and black bodies and a voice like a baby's cry, 162 heads of leans with markings like deer and horsetail cow hooves, 81 heads of swag with markings like tigers and a moaning sound, 22 heads of otters with three legs, 110 heads of collars with red tails and raised sarcoma on their necks, 135 heads of the father with white tails and a terrible cry, These beasts are not intelligent, and they are completely dependent on brute force to go on a rampage, led by Elder Rong as the vanguard to rush to the forefront. The second group is an ape army, all of them have light and long arms, which look like apes, hence the name, and there are 1,000 heads, including 120 heads of white-headed and red-footed Zhu Yan, 62 heads of foxes that are like flying like flies, 93 heads of four ears on the long right, 100 heads of ghosts covered with patterns, 25 heads of ox-tailed horseshoe, and 300 heads of arms longer than the knee. Compared with the Niu Army, they have a higher IQ, are more flexible in their movements, and are good at climbing and throwing, and are handed over to Elder Yu to lead as a slow advance of the Chinese army. The third team had the smallest number, with only 77 heads, but they were all rare birds and beasts, including Gu Eagle, Roe Deer, Scourge, Tengu, Zhuhuai, Qiqi and Roar. These strange beasts are not easy to obtain, they are regarded as treasures by Elder Candle, and it is extremely distressing to lose one of them, so they are naturally led by him personally.
After several battles, more than half of the plague beasts were killed, the fog began to fade, and the epidemic was finally controlled. The Electric King had just taken a breath, and another Fu soldier came to report: "Qi Qi Electric King, I found the flying cowhide floating in Chaobing Prefecture again, this time there are thousands of them." The Electric King was taken aback, and when he turned his head, the sky was dark and oppressive, like a sky full of dark clouds, but he didn't expect that the Yanshang Clan's plan was so thorough this time, and he was still not vigilant enough, and he failed to find the clues in time to destroy their delusions from the sprouts.
The Electric King ordered the archers to turn around and shoot fiercely at these flying cowhides, ten thousand crossbows fired in unison, bows and arrows flew into the sky like locusts, and countless silent cowhides fell in response, mixed with the screams of the Yanshang clansmen and the roars of ancient beasts, resounding through the sky. Bingzhou is a strategic place, with many soldiers and a wide range of generals, and excellent and sufficient equipment, which makes the electric king very confident.
Elder Rong was so anxious that he hurriedly rose upward, his skill was so good that the flying cowhide plunged into the sky for thousands of feet, even Jia Haifei's giant bow was beyond his reach. The others also climbed upward, although not as high as him, but also reached a safe distance, the air above was thin, the wind weakened to a slight level, many people who lacked skill could not hold on, their eyes were dark, and the flying cowhide immediately fell. Seeing this, Elder Yu didn't dare to be so aggressive, seeking the best critical point, although the speed was not fast, he was still flying forward, and the clansmen who were driving could feel a lot better, and everyone followed suit. Jia Haifei watched below, so angry that the roots of his teeth were really itchy, but he was helpless.
"Looks like I'm going to have to do it myself. The Electric King sneered, his left hand stretched high upward, gathering his qi in his physical strength, his right hand stretched forward, blue lightning flew out from along his fingers, and a flying cowhide that was hit was instantly burned into charcoal and fell downward. Elder Rong was startled, hurriedly lowered his altitude, and quickly moved forward with the help of the wind. The electric king made frequent moves, but he couldn't help so many targets.
At the time of a pillar of incense, the second echelon had already crossed the high wall and floated to the border of Bingzhou, and everyone gradually weakened their firepower and prepared to land downward. Elder Bing got off the wooden frame and respectfully asked Leng Yan to board the hanging basket, and then he also climbed up, and was about to give an order, but he saw Wang Ziqing wearing a brand new red dress running from a distance, like a raging fire.
Wang Ziqing grabbed the edge of the hanging basket, and his eyes were almost bleeding: "I'm going too." ”
"Leader?" Elder Bing looked at Leng Yan inquiringly, he naturally didn't dare to assert himself in front of the leader, especially Wang Ziqing's special role. If the Blood King had insisted on the agreement made twenty years ago, it would have been a completely different scene at this time, and there would be no need to go through such a lot of trouble.
"Let him ride with me. Leng Yan said, "I hope that the mourning soldiers will win." ”
Wang Ziqing jumped up into the hanging basket and thanked him. The grief in his heart needs to be vented, and the battlefield is the best place.
Under the gaze of Elder Shuo, Elder Chan, and the left-behind clansmen, Elder Bing waved his hand, and hundreds of flying cowhides rose from the ground, which was the hope of the revival of the Yanshang clan.
Elder Bing couldn't wait for the second echelon to fall to the ground, he wanted to make it difficult for the Electric King, so that the people who landed were their cover, and they would also disperse the fire for those who landed. A large black shadow flew into the sky, obscuring the clouds and the sun, and Bingzhou fell into darkness. Leng Yan raised his right hand, and a fireball went straight into the sky, which was the signal of the attack, the anger that the Yanshang clan had suppressed for many years completely exploded, clenched their fists, and countless fireballs fell from the sky, shooting towards Bingzhou like a meteor shower, and illuminating this place like daylight, the Fu soldiers on the ground and the high wall were burned into burning people, and the huge useless windmill also turned into a fire wheel and fell to the lookout, screaming again and again.
The Electric King was annoyed and angry, crossed his hands, changed his handprints, and several hundreds of lightning bolts fell from the sky inside and outside the high wall, straight into the ground, and the flying cowhide within ten meters of lightning instantly turned into ashes. The electric king can absorb light and lead electricity, and his ability is overwhelming, but the true qi of this method consumes a huge amount, and the more he uses it, the more he feels powerless, the corners of his mouth have seen blood stains, and the light of the lightning is getting weaker and weaker, until the lightning that is finally attracted has been fleeting, just illuminating the sky for a moment, without the slightest threat, the electric king knelt on one knee and held his chest in great pain.
Elder Bing looked at it coldly, and understood in his heart that the Electric King did not only have such skills, but he had caught him off guard, which made him angry, and anger was precisely where people's weaknesses lie. In addition, his heart is not pure, and he is worried about whether the children in his family can escape the plague, which naturally makes his performance greatly reduced, and he can get through the danger, which is pure luck. Looking down, Elder Can had already placed the bonfire according to his instructions and put out the "∈" symbol, which was to tell the people of the third echelon not to descend and keep moving forward, Bingzhou was not his goal, Fighting Beast Mountain was, so they had to go to the Formation State to meet the Blood King, this pass, just leave it to Elder Rong.
When Elder Rong and Elder Yu landed, they only brought a little more than half of the Flying Cowhide, but they were not afraid, these were enough to level the place. The entire Bingzhou seemed to have become an ancient hunting ground, countless beasts as strong as cattle collided everywhere, sharp bows and arrows had no other effect than to cause their anger, Fu Bing was provoked by the horns of the ox, and fell heavily to the ground, stepping on all fours, and instantly became meat puree. The agile ape-like beast climbed the wall and crossed the tree, and the stones in his hand hit the rune soldiers like flying locusts, and as long as they were touched, their skulls would shatter, and they would die with a whimper. Even the generals wearing their respective battle robes could only barely kill the beasts in front of them, which could protect themselves, and they couldn't turn the tide of the battle at all. Although there are 100,000 heavy soldiers, in the eyes of the ancient beasts, they are nothing more than carrion that they don't bother to eat.
Elder Candle led his own soldiers to also fly very low, but he did not land, but watched the enemy's formation from above, and at the same time sent several personal soldiers to the Electric King's Mansion.
To gather the qi of lightning, you need to borrow the liver and stomach, and anger hurts the liver, worry hurts the stomach, and the electric king covers his chest, and he is in great pain.
Unexpectedly, he let himself be defeated, and the electric king was resentful, and it was too hateful for years of hard work to be ruined so easily. The electric king felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted to the ground, instantly solidifying into purple-black.
The electric king stretched out his hand and wiped his mouth, and waved his hand to summon Xing Wushuang: "Quickly go and inform General Guo Min to execute!"
