Chapter 547: Mountain of Corpses
There is movement on the Qi side.
When Hengqing was watching the moon by the river, Chang Ruicheng suddenly sent someone back. Since Wei Xuan was trapped in the territory of Qi State, the border of Lingzhou has always been in a tense confrontation stage.
The people Chang Ruicheng took with him have always been scouts roaming around the border.
However, that night, the Qi army, which had been confronting the Northwest Army, suddenly retreated. This makes Chang Ruicheng have to care.
The Qi army has been strengthening its defense here, the reason is that Wei Xuan can't come back, and now, Wei Xuan has not come back, and the Qi army has retreated, could it be that Wei Xuan really has an accident?
The more Chang Ruicheng thought about it, the more bottomless he became. Therefore, while sending someone to inform Hengqing, he followed the direction of Qi Jun's retreat and chased after him.
Hengqing, who got the news, chuckled in his heart. There has been no news for so long, and suddenly news came, so how could Hengqing not be excited. When he calmed down, it was more about sweating for Rong Bai.
Dayong had 120,000 troops stationed in the northwest army around Lingzhou, and similarly, the Qi army that confronted the Northwest Army also had more than 100,000, and more than 100,000 troops did not directly disband and return to the original place where they were guarded, but retreated to the territory of the country.
Thinking of this, Hengqing couldn't stand still.
"You go and inform Marquis Wu to order troops. Hengqing grabbed the scout's shoulder, gave a quick order, and then ran towards the barracks himself.
At this time, he was glad that his legs could now move. If you are still the same disabled as before, how long will you have to delay at this time? When Hengqing arrived at the barracks, Marquis Wu was reorganizing the army.
Hengqing got the news, and Wu Hou Ye also got it. Rong Bai has news, that is, Wei Xuan has news, all along, Wu Hou Ye's mood is not much lighter than Heng Qing.
"Let's go. Wei Hou Ye rode his horse and roared at the front of the team. The whole group then headed out of the camp.
Hengqing rode at the back of the group. At this time, he was in too much of a nervous mood. Dayong's Northwest Army, with its marching speed, is the fastest army in the whole world. However, that's it, Hengqing also felt that they were too slow. He longed for this team, everyone could ride a horse and gallop to Rong Bai's side at a speed as fast as the wind.
Along the way, Dayong's army did not encounter a single enemy.
The smooth progress of the team made Hengqing's mood even more worried. He knew that Rong Bai must be not far from here. Otherwise, the second prince of Qi would definitely not be so easy to transfer the team that was originally used to confront the Northwest Army.
Along the way, there are marks left by Chang Ruicheng's people. Heng Qing could see that these marks were spreading straight in the same direction, and obviously, that direction was where Rong Bai was hiding.
Balance their chase, it is half a night.
When it was dark, there was a hint of blood in the air.
The officers and men of the Northwest Army are particularly familiar with this smell. Because, that's what the battlefield tastes like. A small amount of gore doesn't mean much, but, as the team goes deeper. The smell of blood grew stronger.
By noon, the smell of blood was so strong that people couldn't help but gause.
Hengqing is the one who is disgusting. He hadn't been on the battlefield and didn't smell anything bloodier at all. What he didn't know was that the expression of Marquis Wei, who was walking in the front, was similar to him.
Wei Houye is a person who has spent most of his life on the battlefield, and he has never smelled bloodier. This taste, not like a battlefield, is more like the smell of a mass grave.
Wei Hou Ye thought so, and then, the team stopped.
It's not that Wei Houye doesn't want to step forward anymore, but the team can't step forward anymore.
Ahead, there is a mountain of corpses.
Wei Hou Ye never imagined that he would see such a scene in his lifetime. Countless corpses, piled up into a mountain. Follow the trend of the cliff and pile it down.
The most recent one has been crushed beyond recognition by the corpse above.
"Gross. ”
Marquis Wei covered his mouth, and the smell of blood and the peculiar smell of corpses kept burrowing into his nose. The deputy general behind him is also well-informed, but in the face of such a scene, he can't help but vomit.
It's just that after vomiting, it's all about anger.
Because the middle part of the pile of corpses was recognized by everyone. Those costumes are obviously the dress of the Dayong people. The deputy general covered his stomach and trembled, which was obviously that the people of Qi State could not attack the mountain, so the people of Dayong were used as shields.
Wu Hou Ye was so angry that his whole body trembled.
"Up. ”
There were tears in his eyes, and his voice was hoarse and trembling, but at this time, no one went to observe the state of Marquis Wu. This mountain of corpses not only aroused the anger of Marquis Wu, but also aroused the anger of all Dayong's soldiers. How can the land and the people that are protected with their lives become the shield of the enemy?
People with tears in their eyes, not only Marquis Wu.
Inside the cave, Wei Xuan's eyes were also full of tears.
How long the battle lasted, the people in the cave had long been unable to calculate, only that the sky outside was bright, and then it was dark again. The entire defensive circle has been reduced by half.
Outside, there were layers of enemy corpses, and in the middle were the corpses of several eagle guards. The cave is a very good defensive terrain, and it is a terrain that is completely one-man and incompatible.
Eagle Guard, and indeed did that.
Ying Yi alone, how many Qi soldiers he killed, there is no number. However, the layers of corpses outside all tell others how powerful this person is. It's just that he still fell like this.
It was not because he was defeated that he fell, but because he was overloaded.
Eagle One fell, followed by Eagle Two.
The wolf guards, who were originally standing in the rear, saw such a scene, and their blood was also stimulated, and they were no longer afraid, because they knew that as long as the eagle guards did not kill people, then they would also be like the eagle guards.
One by one, the eagle guards known as the word eagle fell. Rong Bai stood in the innermost, and the smell of blood filled the entire cave. She was uncomfortable, but she still stood straight.
Wei Xuan cried, crying silently. He hadn't cried like this since he went to war. The Eagle Guards at the front were all trained by him, whether they were men or women, young or old, they were all his brothers on the battlefield.
However, these people, under the tactics of crowds, one after another, could no longer stand up.
"Killing one is enough, killing two will make money, let's not make a lot of money, Shiziye, you are like this, they are uncomfortable when they know it. Before the battle spread to the side of the wolf guard, when Feng Da turned around, he happened to see Wei Xuan with tears streaming down his face, and he couldn't help but smile.
At this time, I can only comfort myself with such words. Everyone knows that even if all the Qi troops outside are replaced, for Wei Xuan, he can't afford to lose a single Eagle Guard.
On the surface, they are just Eagle Guards, but Wei Xuan has always treated them as brothers!
