Chapter 587: Walk away

After Xu Feng led the remnants to withdraw from the Changyang Ancient Road, Mu Youchen led his ghost clan soldiers to kill through the enemy's formation several times, just like farmers harvesting ears of wheat in the farmland.

Seeing that the enemy was already powerless to fight back, Mu Youchen didn't bother to lead the team to kill again, she took two steps forward with her murderous aura and blood, passed through the rising smoke, and saw Xu Feng standing outside the Changyang Ancient Road, Mu Youchen's eyes were so sharp, and she saw Xu Feng with a face full of regret at a glance.

And Xu Feng also seemed to feel something, but he couldn't see it clearly, but Xu Feng knew that it was the girl who was looking at him, and with such a sharp gaze, I am afraid that only Mu Youchen could send it out.

"General, it's time for us to withdraw."

The only remaining centurion beside Xu Feng said that the noisy sound in the Changyang Ancient Road was slowly weakening, and the screams of the swords and soldiers colliding and dying were also decreasing, so it was conceivable that the battle was about to end.

And the victorious enemy, I don't know if I will hunt it down.

According to the unpredictable methods of the enemy commander, Xu Feng's generals were already frightened, so they wanted to advise Xu Feng to leave quickly.

"No, we don't retreat. Show weakness now, they will chase it to the end, believe me. Just like it used to be......"

Xu Feng suffered defeat for the first time, but his heart was more peaceful, he could see that Mu Youchen was the kind of person who would never let go of the enemy as long as he had an advantage, so he didn't dare to show weakness, not to mention that he still had hole cards.

Crossbow!

In the history of mankind, there have always been things that have changed the pattern of the world.

On the Celestial Dragon Continent, the appearance of the strong crossbow can be traced back to three thousand years ago. When it first appeared, the country armed with a strong crossbow conquered all the countries on the Celestial Dragon Continent and unified the continent for hundreds of years.

Later, the design technology of the crossbow spread to the world and was possessed by the whole world.

For thousands of years, although the crossbow has not completely replaced the position of traditional archers, this sharp weapon is invincible in war, but it is intimidating.

Someone once counted the fact that while an elite traditional archer fired ten arrows, a seasoned crossbow operator could shoot between thirteen and fifteen arrows, and at a longer range.

Meantime...... Unlike the traditional archer, who had to take a break after firing ten long arrows quickly, and taking into account the reserve of long arrows, the crossbow was different in that the machine did not need to rest, and the crossbowman who was responsible for loading actually had much less effort, and most of the crossbow arrows were short and easy to carry.

This is a very big advantage, Xu Feng's soldiers, because they are good at long-distance running, they often carry the most conducive to their own combat and the most conducive to long-distance running ordnance equipment, strong crossbows are weapons that almost everyone has.

At the entrance and exit of the Changyang Ancient Road, half of Xu Feng's 2,000 soldiers were his descendants, as long as the entrance and exit of the Changyang Ancient Road were guarded, Mu Youchen would definitely not risk huge casualties to impact them.

"Whoa!"

The centurion was frightened and heard Xu Feng's calm voice, and instantly calmed down, Xu Feng led them to win countless battles, this time, they were only a small defeat, and there was still a chance.

While speaking, thousands of crossbowmen set up a defensive line at the entrance and exit of Changyang Ancient Road, those soldiers who were not Xu Feng's descendants were shocked, they came to the mountains to catch the strong men, only because of Xu Feng's call, and heard that there were huge merits to be taken, so they followed Xu Feng to fight, but now after a battle, most of the strong men caught in their hands were lost, and most of the robes were killed, and now Xu Feng did not retreat.

"General Xu, should we retreat now? The enemy has now killed all of our people who have held them back. ”

A thousand households who were responsible for catching strong men came out and said, he and Xu Feng are both thousands of households, commanding a thousand people, but compared with Xu Feng, his thousand households have too little gold content, Xu Feng's reputation is famous among the rebels, and the ninth thousand team under his command is the elite of the elite, and after Xun Wenlong's promotion, the ninth thousand team has long been out of the scope of the ordinary thousand people, and the ordinary thousand people can only have two thousand people, and the number is three thousand. And Xu Feng's 9,000-strong team has 5,000 people, and they are 5,000 elites.

It is conceivable that the identity gap between the two sides, it is no wonder that this thousand households are so humble.

"If we withdraw, they will chase them out. We have thousands of strong crossbows, and they don't dare to chase and kill them rashly. ”

Xu Feng said lightly, after a defeat, Xu Feng's mentality became more stable. Success will certainly make people have glory, but failure can give glory a chance to become more brilliant.

"This ......"

The thousand households didn't dare to say much, but looked back at the soldiers under their command, most of them were languishing, obviously the battle just now was a great disaster for them, these people were already out of power.

"Tell your soldiers that after catching the enemy's commander, each officer will be promoted to one level and rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."

Xu Feng knew the difficulties of this thousand households, especially the soldiers under his command had lost their morale, if there were no more rewards to stimulate them, I am afraid it would be difficult for them to gather combat strength.

A hundred taels of silver is nothing, but it would be a big deal if the official was promoted to the next level, and the thousand households hurriedly passed on Xu Feng's words, and the result really cheered up the soldiers who were originally demoralized.

More than 2,000 people were on standby, but they couldn't see what the enemy was doing in the smoke-rising Changyang Ancient Road.

——————————

"Youchen, it's already cleaned up, but the enemy has fled nearly two thousand people."

Xuan Jiayin said with some regret, not annihilating the enemy, this is indeed bad news, judging from the enemy's behavior, the enemy general must be a very capable commanding person, let go of such an enemy, it is really not a good thing.

"He's aware of it, he's acutely aware of danger, but next time he'll not be so lucky."

Mu Youchen said lightly, the ghost soldiers under his command are cutting off the enemy's head, and the Dali Dynasty of the previous dynasty commented on merit according to the head, which has also become the tradition of the ghost people, but the ghost people did not use the enemy's head to ask Mu Youchen for credit, but put these heads into one mountain after another.

Vomit!

Many soldiers vomited when they saw the tragic death of the human head being piled up, and they may not have pressure to kill people, but after a person dies, they have to brutally cut off the enemy's head, which is a little unacceptable, and those mountain people have the strongest reaction.

However, the number of these mountain people is not much, in the battle just now, under the deliberate guidance of Mu Youchen, these mountain people almost rushed to the front line, and as a result, there were heavy casualties, and there were less than 100 people left, but these more than 100 people have already fought bloodily, and they have lost their previous timidity, and they have cleared their charges.

"What do you mean? Aren't we going to hunt them down? ”

Xuan Jiayin frowned and asked, although it is said that the poor are not chasing, but the enemy is obviously not enough to fight with his own side, if he does not chase at this time, it will be an endless hidden danger to leave behind future troubles.

"They have crossbows, and this weapon is powerful, you should know it. We won once at a very small price, which is already a miracle, and if we chase it down now, the mountain road is narrow, and our losses will be doubled. Gone, don't dwell on them. ”

Mu Youchen glanced at Xu Feng one last time, she didn't want to kill such an opponent in order to eliminate the hidden danger, but if she thought about it, if she launched a hunt for Xu Feng, I am afraid that their losses would be very large, especially the ghost people, who had just followed Mu Youchen, naturally they should not suffer too many casualties.

Remove!

The order was forbidden, and after several battles, everyone was already impressed by Mu Youchen, and they withdrew from the Changyang Ancient Road one after another, and followed Xu Feng's example, and a fire burned the Changyang Ancient Road to stop Xu Feng's tracking, although the fire burned slowly, but once it burned, the entire Changyang Ancient Road would not see the light of day for at least half a month, Xu Feng wanted to catch up with Mu Youchen and Xuan Jiayin again, I am afraid it would be half a month later......
