Chapter 580: Bloody Battle 1
Boom!
"Damn it!"
Xu Feng looked at the Hukou Canyon that was blocked in front of him, and his heart was full of regret, although he repeatedly urged the army to catch up, but because he was worried that the temporarily assembled army would not be able to withstand the intensity of his own long-distance attack, he had to slow down.
As a result, when he arrived at Hukou Canyon, the scene in front of him made Xu Feng's heart cold.
Hukou Canyon, which originally only accommodated two people, or even one person, has now been sealed by boulders, and it seems that the enemy is obviously using the power of the spirit cultivators, and the road is very tightly blocked, and tons of boulders are piled up in one place, not to mention wanting to move away, even if you want to turn over from it, it has become nonsense.
"General, now, I'm afraid we can't continue the pursuit, unless we take another route, but no matter where we go, we will be delayed for several days, and we will definitely not be able to catch up with them."
One of Xu Feng's centurions knew the local situation very well, the road had been blocked, and the enemy must have fled long ago, and if they continued to chase and kill like this, I am afraid that there would be no good results.
It's better to ......
"And what do you suggest?"
Xu Feng looked around, but didn't find any clues.
"It seems that we can only quickly return to the marshal's side, report to him, and ask the cavalry troops in the southern part of Wanling Province to cooperate with us to catch these enemies."
The centurion hesitated for a moment, and then said with some unwillingness.
This was originally a feat that they almost had in their hands, but now they have to give it to others, and they will naturally be unwilling.
"It's not that simple, ask the mountain people and see if they know any shortcuts."
Xu Feng raised his eyebrows, he was not someone who could admit defeat so easily. As Xun Wenlong's most important young general, if Xu Feng left like this, he would definitely be ridiculed by his colleagues, and Xu Feng would never allow such a thing to happen.
"The subordinates have already inquired clearly, unless they are taking the Changyang Ancient Road, but ......"
The centurion had already made a good inquiry for information, but when he mentioned the Changyang Ancient Road, as a pure southerner, the centurion was very afraid of the place where the bones were piled up.
"Changyang Ancient Road...... Is that the place where hundreds of years ago decided the life-and-death battle between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Li? It is rumored that the fog does not dissipate all year round, and ghosts and ghosts linger in it. ”
Xu Feng's head was full of black lines and said, he is also from the south, and he is also very familiar with this legend, but he didn't expect that the Changyang Ancient Road was actually near here.
"That's right, General, that place is unpredictable, and there are many frightening stories, and the soldiers are very afraid of it, I think, let's not go that way."
The centurion hesitated for a moment before speaking, but he knew Xu Feng's temper, such advice obviously had no effect, and he was afraid that the order would be given.
"Nonsense, order, the whole army is advancing towards the Changyang Ancient Road, how can you retreat because of the rumors of these ignorant people."
Xu Feng said with some annoyance, it is inevitable that people fear ghosts and gods, but they are not ordinary people, they are soldiers, and they are carrying out orders, if they dare not take the Changyang Ancient Road because of a few legends, they simply don't want to be soldiers.
"Whoa!"
The centurion said worriedly, and then conveyed Xu Feng's order.
It's just that when Xu Feng's order was given, most of the mountain people refused to move on, the number of these people was about 1,000, and they were all mountain hunters who knew the local situation very well, especially the legend about the haunting of the Changyang Ancient Road, and even their parents had seen ghosts with black bodies here......
It's just that, under the persecution of knives and guns, in order to save their lives, these people had to advance to the Changyang Ancient Road and assume the role of cannon fodder.
Xu Feng is not a soft-hearted person, especially in such a situation, any wrong decision will make them fall short, so they must be decided.
While marching towards the Changyang Ancient Road, Xu Feng also asked people to send them to contact Xun Wenlong's carrier pigeons, asking Xun Wenlong to send troops to support them, of course, Xu Feng specifically pointed out that the number of support should not be too much, only two thousand people are enough, and its purpose is to block the exit of Mu Youchen and others from leaving the mountain, and win time for the pursuit.
After calculating the question of time, Xu Feng knew that if Mu Youchen and the others wanted to leave the mountain, they would definitely have to face encirclement and interception at that time......
