Chapter 1822: Defeat
Li Yunlong led a thousand people to Flint City, taking with him the grain and grass of 20,000 people in the whole army.
It is said that it is grain and grass, but it is different from the grain and grass of ancient wars.
The grain and grass in the cultivation realm, to put it bluntly, are mainly some livestock, which are used for the army to open meat. As for inanimate things like meals, they are naturally packed into the space bag, don't worry about it (the space bag can't contain living things).
After Li Yunlong left, the remaining two hundred people, including Lei Jian and Ni Qiang, immediately entered the battle state and rushed to the place where Su Chenglong was pursuing.
They didn't dare to get closer to the dense forest over there, after all, if two hundred people were dragged into battle, it would be almost a matter of minutes to be wiped out.
When there were still more than twenty miles away from the dense forest, the spies sent out by Thunder Blade came back in a panic and reported: "General Lei, as you expected, General Su, General Chen, and the people of Agni City were ambushed in the mountains and forests in the valley ahead. They are all competing for battle merits, and they have been killed and injured countless by sneak attacks, and they are already retreating! ”
Lei Jian and Ni Qiang, you look at me, I look at you, you can only smile bitterly.
What was expected happened.
Su Chenglong died innocently, but other people can't be buried with him!
"Boss, what should we do, should we go to support?" Ni Qiang pursed his lips and said.
Thunder Blade shook his head: "We go to support, it's like a mantis arm as a car." I guess the 20,000 people of the Fire Eagle Legion were deliberately defeated, and their ambush troops were at least 30,000. In such a big battle, there are 200 of us, and it is not enough to stuff them between their teeth. ”
Thunder Blade was also a little overwhelmed at this time, and suddenly remembered that on the map, twenty miles behind the dense forest, there was a huge canyon.
"There it is! If they retreat to the other side of the canyon, we can save their lives. If you don't retreat to the canyon, you will definitely die! ”
Thinking of a plan, Thunderblade led two hundred people directly to the canyon.
It is a long, narrow canyon with steep cliffs on both sides.
This is an obvious ambush terrain, so the Fire Eagle Legion did not choose to ambush here, and Su Chenglong's pursuit route did not pass through this canyon, but passed through another plain area a mile away.
Now, if they are defeated and take them to the plains, that is, if they return the same way, the Fire Eagle Legion can chase them to death, and not one of them will be left.
And if you go from this side of the canyon, Thunderblade has a way to block the pursuers behind.
They were close to the canyon, so they came early and began to prepare as Thunderblade had ordered.
After waiting for about half an hour, I finally heard the sound of the ground shaking in front of me, and then, when the Thunder Blade looked from a distance, I saw countless True Qi shadows jumping up and down, some moving forward, some catching up, and it was a mess.
And in that sky, there were dozens of fierce beasts in front of them carrying soldiers to escape, and dozens of fierce beasts in the rear chased after them fiercely!
Those scenes are simply chilling.
"Boss, it's General Chen Chao's men." When the troops fleeing in front got closer, Ni Qiang recognized Chen Chao, who was the leader.
Chen Chao drove one of his lion beasts and ran in the front.
At this time, his escape skills were used to the fullest, throwing his subordinates far away.
"Everyone keep up, when you get to the canyon, leave someone to break the queen, one husband is the pass, and ten thousand people don't open!" Chen Chao's voice roared at the other end of the canyon.
Lei Jian nodded, Chen Chao's thoughts coincided with his.
The canyon is long and narrow, and the space is minimal. Even if the pursuers behind flew up and wanted to cross the canyon, it would be difficult to get through many people for a while. And at this time, Chen Chao's crossbowmen can play a role and directly shoot the enemy soldiers who are flying.
This is also the reason why the enemy army behind is reluctant to fly to chase Chen Chao and others, since they have flown up, the consumption of true qi is great, and after landing, the true qi is greatly consumed, and they may not be able to defeat the deserters; In addition, the deserters have crossbowmen, so they are naturally reluctant to take this risk.
Lei Jian saw that Chen Chao's men and horses in front of him were retreating quickly, looking like that, there were thousands of people; And behind, the black pressure is overwhelming, all of them are the pursuers of the Fire Eagle Legion, at least 10,000 or even 20,000 people!
After waiting for about a few minutes, Chen Chao's troops finally entered the narrowest area of the canyon, and at this time, Chen Chao stopped and ordered the soldiers to stop: "Stop for me!" Whoever dares to run away again, kill! ”
Chen Chao let out a loud roar, and then ordered: "Above the Transformation Stage, block here, condense the True Qi barrier, and stop the pursuing soldiers." Those below the transformation period, retreat in an orderly manner! ”
When Chen Chao was defeated, he did not organize people to defend in a hurry, and at this point, Lei Jian underestimated him.
It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a big man roaring: "General Chen's men and horses, if you like to stay, stay here, General Su's subordinates, withdraw with me!" ”
This big man with a big shape recognized by Lei Blade, and he was Su Chenglong's most powerful henchman, Shi Gang.
This person was a cultivator in the early stage of the Little Immortal Rank, and he was also a general, and his rank was nominally equivalent to Lei Jian and Chen Chao. It's just that he is a retainer of the Su family, a wealthy family in Xiandu City, so he didn't appear in the court.
"Shigang, you!"
Seeing this time, Shigang actually demolished the stage and left his own people and horses to break off, but he ran away himself, and Chen Chao was very angry.
"General Chen, you've worked hard to break the back, I'll move the rescuers!" Shi Gang ignored Chen Chao's anger, laughed, and quickly fled the battlefield with about 2,000 of his own men and horses.
At this time, although Chen Chao was angry, he couldn't escape, because once he fled, the pursuers behind him would catch up, and he would still have to die, especially if he missed this narrow terrain, it would be almost impossible to organize a defense in the future.
Thundered!
The pursuers arrived, and the true qi barrier condensed by Chen Chao's subordinates was strongly impacted!
All of a sudden, the earth shook!
"Don't escape! Fugitives, no mercy! ”
In the face of the huge pursuers, Chen Chao's subordinates also began to flee, Chen Chao yelled and killed two soldiers, but to no avail.
He sat on the lion and beast, looked up to the sky and sighed, "Am I going to die here?" It's unfair! ”
"General Chen, don't be impatient, reinforcements are coming!"
Just as Chen Chao was roaring and sighing, a voice full of true qi echoed in the canyon. Not only Chen Chao heard it, but even the enemy on the opposite side also heard it.
This is the sound of the thunderblade.
With the sound of the thunder blade, the thunder blade and other hundred people jumped directly from the top of the canyon. And Ni Qiang and the other hundred people stayed above the canyon, and they threw the huge stones prepared in advance on the valley directly to the location where the enemy army was!
Thundered!
All of a sudden, the sound shook the sky, the earth shook, the mountains shook, and the whole canyon trembled!
