Chapter 780: Poor Leader
Chen Li sat on the top of a broken high cliff, Chi Yuan was behind him, after a while, he felt that some strength had grown in his body, looking at the battlefield at the foot of the mountain, where the corpses were crisscrossing and the blood was flowing like a river, even if he stepped into a foreign land, most of the time he was in an uninterrupted battle, but seeing such a situation, he sighed with emotion in his heart, he didn't know whether the number of people who died in the history of the Xingheng Domain was more due to cannibalism, or whether the number of people who were devoured by the demons was more.
There are less than 10,000 soldiers left in the Black Wind Army who can still stand on the battlefield, and almost all of them are injured among these 10,000 people.
Fortunately, more than 20,000 remnants of the Xiao clan were abandoned outside the valley, and they all lost the courage to fight at this time.
Not only the vast majority of the generals of the Xuanxuan Realm and the brave men who served as servants, but also many of the grassroots military attaches in the Spirit Realm, because of the exhaustion of the True Yuan mana and exhaustion, could not follow Xiao Feiyu and Liu Yafu to flee eastward, and could only stay in place and wait for death.
Killed until now, they have been abandoned again, and they have lost the will to resist.
The drums of war ceased, and there were no more screams and scattered heaven and earth aura in the valley, but instead there were miserable wails and moans.
Although it is said that the Black Wind Army is regarded as the same body, due to the short time it took to form the army, it is still divided into three factions internally. The disciples of Wanxian Mountain led by Chen Hai, the pirates to which Yang Yin and Huang Zhan belonged, and the rest were all the disciples of the Zhou family.
Therefore, when the body is collected, the parts still place the body separately.
Chen Hai inspected the past, looked at the piles of corpses, and was also embarrassed, and followed him into the sea area of Fusang to cross the sea, and more than 300 people were buried here forever in this battle.
Wei Han, Zhu Mingwei and others stood in front of the pile of corpses, their faces expressionless. Hearing the movement behind them, they turned to look over, and when they saw Chen Hai with a smile on his face, they reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "The general is not worried about the brothers, and it is our fate to die on the battlefield."
Chen Hai patted the two of them on the shoulder.
At this time, Yang Yin and Huang Zhan flew over from the east and said: "The main force of the Fu Jiao army led by the lord of the Zhou Palace has bitten the tail of the rebel sailor, and is chasing and beating hard, Xiao Jiang's old man really lost his wife and his troops this time, can he escape with his life this time, I don't want to say anything." ”
As soon as the war on this side ended, there were still a large number of prisoners who were uncertain and needed to sit still, and at the same time, Chen Hai's combat strength was also exhausted, so he sent Yang Yin and Huang Zhan to rush to the gate into the sea to meet Zhou Wanqing, the master of Shuyu Palace, and Zhou Bin, the Marquis of Wuling, to inform them of the battle situation here.
Yang Yin and Huang Zhan returned after seeing Zhou Wanqing and Zhou Bin.
Although the Fujiao army dispatched more than 50 large and small warships this time, which was comparable to the scale of the warships that Xiao Jiang's troops fled from Heifeng Island in a hurry, in order to lure Xiao Jiang into the bait and besiege him, more than 50 warships of the Zhou clan carried more than 50,000 warships of the Zhou clan, in addition to the 40,000 elite sailors of the Fujiao army, they also added 30,000 elite children of the Zhou clan who were withdrawn from Beijin City and Izumo City.
At the same time, this battle was led by Zhou Wanqing Wu Ling Army Zhou Bin, Fu Jiao Army Governor Feng Yichen and other Zhou clan remnant Dao Fetal Realm powerhouses, Yang Yin and Huang Zhan thought that after this battle, the Xiao Clan would definitely lose their largest mobile combat force at sea.
Before the Lei Yang Sect officially entered the war, most of the actions of the Xiao rebels would be confined to Jiujun Island, and the possibility of completely annihilating the remnants of the Zhou clan would be lost in a short period of time - Yang Yin and Huang Zhan believed that no matter how bold Xiao Ruohai was, after hearing the defeat of his own sailors, he would also slow down in Beijin City.
Thinking of this, Yang Yin and Huang Zhan glanced at each other, and they both felt that they were fortunate that they did not choose to turn their faces with Chen Hai at the beginning.
Before dark, Chen Hai led more than 10,000 remnants of the Black Wind Army, escorting more than 24,000 prisoners of war, to retreat to the dock camp that had completely turned into ruins, and handed over the reorganization of the camp, the management and training of prisoners of war, the construction of the camp and other things, to Yang Yin, Huang Zhan, Zhu Mingwei, Wei and other people who could barely hold on.
His physical injuries were not serious, but they were so exhausted that a good night's sleep was more effective than swallowing elixir.
Chen Hai fell asleep, it was already the middle of the moon in the middle of the night the next day, and at this time, a huge fleet of ships arrived at Heifeng Harbor.
When Zhou Wanqing led his troops to pursue, there were more than 50 Fujiao troops, and at this time, 72 warships returned, and a big victory really failed to escape from the palm of the Zhou clan.
Even if Xiao Ruohai heard about the defeat and continued to lead the army south, it would take three or four days for the main force of the 300,000 rebels to be able to resist Luoxia Port, so the fleet chose to rest on Black Wind Island for one night and return to Xia Port tomorrow.
In Chen Hai's humble main tent, Zhou Wanqing, Chen Hai, Zhou Bin, Feng Yichen, Zhou Yunshan, Sha Tianhe, Yang Yin, Huang Zhan and others are sitting in order, they are all people who have experienced strong winds and waves, but today's battle still makes them happy one by one.
Due to Xiao Feiyu's delay, when Xiao Jiang finally led his troops to escape from Black Wind Island, the naval warships of the Fujiao Army had approached within forty miles.
Along the way, Xiao Jiang exhausted all means, but he still couldn't stop Zhou's approach.
Previously, in order to achieve a quick victory, when Xiao Jiang sent Xiao Feiyu to the island to exterminate the Black Wind Army, he did not send the 20,000 pirate miscellaneous soldiers who had taken refuge before.
Later, under the relentless pursuit of the Fujiao army's warships, Xiao Jiang finally tasted the bitter fruit.
These pirates are used to crisscrossing the sea, and seeing that the Xiao clan is very likely to take the entire Jiujun Island this time, they took refuge in it, wanting to make a fortune.
Who would have thought that Xiao Jiang would even eat a small 20,000 black feng shui masters in the end, and be bitten by the main force of the Fu Jiao Army, these 20,000 pirates and miscellaneous soldiers, who would be willing to continue to escape with Xiao Jiang.
In fact, when Xiao Jiang led his troops to escape from Black Wind Island, pirates continued to break away from the ship formation and flee to the periphery, and Xiao Jiang could not stop chasing these deserters, so he could only watch his own strength shrink to less than 30,000 little by little.
Pursuing all the way to Qianchuan Port, the main base of the Xiao rebel naval division at the northeast foot of Zixiao Mountain, Zhou Wanqing led the Fu Jiao army to withdraw to Black Wind Island.
After chasing for more than 3,000 miles and engaging more than a dozen times, Xiao Jiang finally fled into Qianchuan Harbor with only 11 large and small warships and more than 10,000 remnants.
"It's a pity that the scum of the Liuyun Sect actually fled to Xiao Jiang's ship when they saw the opportunity, otherwise they must be taken down so as to pay tribute to the heroic spirit of my Zhou family's great son. Zhou Yunshan drank the spirit wine, patted his thigh with pity and said.
After talking about the battle situation, Wuling Hou Zhou Bin turned sideways and asked Chen Hai: "I discussed with my ancestor that I want to reorganize the Fujiao Army and Navy Division into two divisions, and attack the rebels or enemy counties from the left and right, is Chen Zhenren willing to take on the heavy responsibility?"
Although Chen Hai led the black feng shui division alone at this time, the black feng shui division only made up 10,000 horses before the war, and this time the Zhou clan wanted to reorganize the water division, divided into two divisions, and invited Chen Hai to take charge of a water division, which can be said to be among the important ministers of the Zhou clan - Yang Yin and Huang Zhan thought that the Zhou family was also generous.
Chen Hai knew that Zhou Wanqing was interested in Wulinghou Zhou Bin to continue the position of the lord of the country, and this matter was mentioned by Wulinghou Zhou Bin in person, he pondered for a while, and returned to Wulinghou Zhou Bin and said: "Chen Hai is lazy by nature, and has no intention of fame and power, so he took people to cross the sea to travel, and it was also just when he met the Zhou Palace Lord that he got involved in this battle - in this battle, more than 300 of the brothers who came with me across the sea were buried here, which made Chen Hai feel nostalgic. Of course, if Marquis Zhou and the palace lord of Zhou are in need, they will go to the sword mountain to fight in the sea of fire, and Chen Hai will never frown, but Chen Hai's greatest ability is to command one or two thousand people to fight, no matter how many, if the strength is not caught, please ask Marquis Zhou to invite another meritocracy......"
Hearing Chen Hai say this, everyone was slightly stunned, but they didn't expect Chen Hai to refuse.
Wulinghou Zhou Bin also went to Zhou Wanqing's side unexpectedly, Zhou Wanqing's slender jade hand was on the green sandalwood case, and the glittering starry eyes were hidden, staring at Chen Hai for a long time, and finally did not say anything to persuade Chen Hai to agree.
"In my early years, I got an ancient fragment in Wanxian Mountain, called "Heavenly Machine Treasure Book", which recorded the casting methods of war weapons such as the Shenji Heavy Rifled Crossbow, the Super Heavy Rifled Crossbow, the Heavenly Machine Chariot, the Heavenly Machine Ironclad Ship, and the Heavenly Machine Puppet Arm. This battle can suppress the rebels, and it also relies on the Shenji heavy crossbow - although I am lazy in the war, if the Zhou Palace Lord and the Marquis of Zhou need it, I can cast the Heavenly Machine Weapon for the Fu Jiao Army and Haiyang Jiajun on Black Wind Island, or I can make up for the shortage of combat power a little. Chen Hai said.
Chen Hai thought that instead of helping the Zhou clan lead troops to fight, in the end, even if he helped the Zhou clan recover the Jiujun Kingdom, no matter how elite the soldiers and horses he brought out, no matter how many they were, they were all from the Zhou clan and the Jiujun Kingdom, and no one would take away three or five hundred thousand elite soldiers from the Jiujun Kingdom at the same time.
Instead of helping the Zhou clan lead troops to fight, it is better to help build the Heavenly Machine Weapon, and he can also take the opportunity to reshape the Heavenly Machine Academy Palace system on Black Wind Island......
As soon as they heard this, Wulinghou Zhou Bin, Zhou Yunshan, Feng Yichen and others were all overjoyed, defending the island in a battle, before the war, more than 10,000 elites of the Zhou clan were transferred to Chen Hai's jurisdiction, and they had already told Zhou Bin in detail about the various details of the battle to defend the island.
A single heavy crossbow may not be a big deal, or there are not enough heavy arrows, dozens or hundreds of heavy crossbows are not a big deal, once a heavy crossbow is combined with a large number of heavy arrows, in a large-scale confrontational war, the effect is too great.
What's more, Chen Hai also said a lot of names of strange weapons that they had never heard of.
Chen Haineng promised to help them forge heavy crossbows and other heavenly weapons, how could they be unhappy?
Zhou Wanqing was a little unhappy, she thought that Chen Hai would be happy to take charge of a sailor for the Zhou family......
