The leader of the cloud-winged bird cried, gave a signal to retreat, waved his arms, and flew into the depths of the mountain forest.

The leader of the mastiff was wounded and fled, and it continued to fight with no hope of victory, and could even die here.

Seeing this, the leader of the blue-tailed beast did not hesitate and left after him, as for the leader of the wildebeest, he had already fled far away.

There were still eighty or ninety demon beasts left in the beast group below, and when they heard the retreat signal, they didn't fight, they scattered in all directions, and fled quickly.

Wang Qian and the others did not continue to pursue, because they were both injured, and their aura and soul power were almost consumed, and it was too dangerous to catch up.

The four demon soldiers all left, Zhou Lei slammed and fell to the ground, Wang Qian endured the sharp pain in his left rib, hurried over, and asked with concern: "Senior Brother Zhou, how is your situation?"

After Zhou Lei briefly dealt with the injury, he said weakly: "It's okay, it's all skin trauma, it's just a little prostration, just take a rest." ”

"Okay. Wang Qian nodded slightly, looked at the bottom of the mountain, and then said, "Then you rest here, I'll go down and have a look first." ”

"Good. ”

Wang Gan looked at the wound on his left rib and rushed down the mountain, a little bigger, he would pull the wound, and Wang Gan, who was in pain, gasped.

On the way, Wang Gan encountered several escaped demon beasts, killed them along the way, and absorbed the blood and qi in the corpses to recover his injuries.

Under the effect of green light, the wound on Wang Gan's left rib has gradually stopped bleeding, and if he wants to recover, he has to wait for the flesh to grow again, even if Wang Gan's current physical fitness is strong, it will take three or five days.

After rushing to the bottom of the mountain, the beasts had all left, and the ground was full of demon beast corpses, blood stained the ground red, and there were large pits blown out by grenades.

At this time, the advancing troops, under Qi Lin's arrangement, began to count the number of people and deal with the wounded.

All of them had tired faces, sad and angry expressions, and the atmosphere was a little depressed and silent.

Wang Qian knew that the reason why such a scene was formed must be because there were too many casualties.

"Alas!"

With a low sigh, Wang Qian walked up to Qi Lin and asked softly, "What are the casualties?"

There was some pain in Qi Lin's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "The cultivators sacrificed three people, the ordinary soldiers sacrificed twelve people, more than fifty people were seriously injured, and nearly a hundred people were slightly injured. ”

Wang Gan's body was shocked, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable, he actually sacrificed fifteen people, this is fifteen fresh lives!

Although there were more casualties among the beasts, they were demon beasts, not humans, and even if they died, Wang Qian would not be a little sad.

Behind the crowd, fifteen bodies were covered with white cloths, and seeing this scene, Wang Gan's eyes couldn't help but redden.

The others sat on the ground, some leaning against the trunks of the trees, and some simply lay on the ground, all exhausted.

Some people took out the remaining pills and nutrient solutions and took them, while others had already used up the pills, so they could only take out ordinary medicines and sprinkle them on the wounds and wrap them in bandages.

There are also a few people, and even their arms have been bitten off by demon beasts, and their empty shoulders look very unpleasant.

As the wound was bandaged, screams echoed at the foot of the mountain.

Wang Qian took out twenty high-grade nutrient solutions and twenty Qi and Blood Pills, handed them to Qi Lin, and said, "You take it and give it to those brothers who are more seriously injured." ”

Qi Lin's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly turned the result and said sincerely: "Thank you!"

Subsequently, Qi Lin distributed the nutrient solution and qi and blood pills one by one.

At this time, Zhou Lei also rushed down from the mountain, saw fifteen corpses, and after listening to Qi Lin's report, Zhou Lei's eyes were red and his face was sad.

Zhou Lei distributed all the remaining pills and nutrient solutions on his body.

He walked to the middle of the crowd, his face was serious, and he said in a firm tone: "Brothers, in this battle, we have won a big victory!"

"Every brother who dies, I promise, will receive a high pension and will never treat their family badly. ”

"Everyone here is a hero, and when the aura tide is over, the state will also give you a lot of rewards. ”

"Also, I want you to remember one thing, we are fighting for the whole of China, for all the Chinese people, whether you are injured or sacrificed, it is an honor, I hope you don't have resentment!"

"Sir, don't worry, it is our duty to defend our family and the country. ”

"Senior Zhou, isn't the same for the purpose of our cultivation?"

The cultivators and soldiers who were resting replied in a sonorous and powerful voice, their faces firm, and there was no complaint in their hearts.

There may be some people who still feel unbalanced in their hearts, why do they want to fight for life and death here, while ordinary people can live in peace and stability in the rear, is it because they are cultivators?

Even if someone thinks so, no one dares to say it, and if there is a situation of disturbing the morale of the army or deserting at this time, it is estimated that there is only a dead end.

In front of the war machine of the state, any cultivator seemed vulnerable, even if he was a strong person in the Spirit Realm.

Two hours later, after everyone's injuries had stabilized, under Qi Lin's order, they began to light a fire and roast meat and collect demon beast materials.

In this battle, the casualties were extremely tragic, and everyone was sad and helpless.

A part of the people was sent back to the town with the bodies of the martyrs and the seriously wounded.

Wang Qian and Zhou Lei led the rest of the people to continue to advance.

I have to say that the results of this battle are also obvious, directly crippling all the four demon beast groups, and at the same time deterring other demon beasts, along the way, no demon beasts dare to come out to stir up trouble.

After turning over the mountains and advancing about a kilometer, Zhou Lei looked at the map and said, "Everyone rests on the spot, camps, our straight-line advancement task has been completed, and tomorrow we will start to advance in an arc and set off in the direction of Zhang Yuqi." ”

Wang Qian had some doubts in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "When the arc advances, we are all gone, what should we do here? Is there anyone going to guard the area occupied along the way?"

Zhou Lei pondered for a moment and said: "Of course, when the people from all the nearby villages gather in the town, there will be at least tens of thousands of more young adults, and the top should send all these people to support us!"

"Really?" Wang Qian raised his eyebrows, if this was the case, they could rest assured that they would be able to advance boldly.

The forest near Longche Town, after all, is not big, it is far worse than the primeval mountain range, and the demon beasts have been almost killed by the advancing troops, even if there are still some demon beasts left, it is estimated that they are all scared, and when the arc advances, it should be a lot easier.

It's like the Frost Giant Wolf and the Red Flame Tiger, who were almost beaten into a bare-bones commander, and if they come out to make trouble again, they will be the last to die.

"Of course!" Zhou Lei nodded and said: "Actually, a series of tasks such as promoting, building cities, repairing walls, and sending people to support have already been formulated, but the progress of each place is different, so some places have not yet started to recruit soldiers." ”

Wang Qian's pupils shrank, and he asked, "You mean, there will be forced conscription and sent to support us? Didn't you say before that you would volunteer to join the army?"

Zhou Lei shook his head slightly, and said softly: "It's just volunteering, at this moment, the most important thing is to stabilize people's hearts first." ”

"Not to mention ordinary people, even cultivators are afraid of demons and don't take coercive measures, and there are a few people who dare to come to our aid. ”

"Yes. ”

Wang Qian nodded, thoughtful, very moment, very means, very normal.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Lei ordered to go down, the barbecue of the barbecue, and the healing of the wounds.

Although we won today, we still can't relax, and we must continue to push forward the task.

The next morning, while it was still dark, the camp suddenly became noisy.

Wang Qian rubbed his confused eyes, and when he walked out of the tent, he saw that there were thousands of people gathered near the camp, crowded with people and talking.

All of these people have one thing in common, that is, they are all young adults in their twenties and forties, and there are no old or young women.

Wang Qian walked up to Zhou Lei's side and asked with some confusion: "Why are there so many people, are these reinforcements?"

"Yes. Zhou Lei looked at the crowd of discussions, and said with some disappointment: "There are a total of 3,000 reinforcements, but half of them are scared and want to return to the town, and some of them even want to escape quietly." ”

"What can I do?"

Wang Qian's brows furrowed, he didn't know how to solve this situation, these reinforcements were all ordinary people, there were no cultivators, and most of them were forcibly sent, it was impossible to go up and beat them up!

As soon as Wang Qian thought of this, hundreds of soldiers rushed over, grabbed those who wanted to leave, and went up with punches and kicks, without showing any mercy to his subordinates.

These soldiers scolded as they struck.

"Damn, it's been like this, and you still want to run, isn't it a man!"

"You run, where you run, if you run, who will your family rely on to protect you? ”

"Let you come to support, it is to give you the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and when the tide of spiritual energy is over, a lot of pills are waiting for you. ”

"Fucking stop me, whoever dares to run, I'll kill whoever I want, I'll put my words here. ”

The people who were caught and beaten by these soldiers were not opponents at all, and in the face of the angry soldiers, they had no ability to resist at all, so they could only beg for mercy.

"I don't run, I don't run. ”

"Woo...... , I really didn't want to run on purpose, the monster beast is too scary. ”

"It hurts, it hurts, lightly, don't slap your face, I promise not to run away, obey the arrangement of my superiors." ”

......

There was a young man with a blue nose and swollen face who was beaten, and howled loudly: "Ah...... Come and see, the soldiers have beaten people, and there is no royal law. ”

Hearing this, the soldier who beat him became even more ruthless.

However, every soldier who shoots is hit in a place with rough skin and thick flesh, such as the buttocks.

"Senior Brother Zhou, it's no problem to do this!" Wang Qian said in surprise, a little unable to believe the scene in front of him.

Zhou Lei smiled indifferently and said, "What can be the problem, they are very measured, and you see, isn't this very good?"

Wang Qian turned his head to look, it was really the same as Zhou Lei said, after the beating, everyone became honest, and no one dared to run.

Looking at the faces with blue noses and swollen faces, and aggrieved faces, Wang Gan felt that these people deserved to be beaten.

I told you not to run, but to run, and now it's okay, I was beaten and ran away in vain.
