Here, Jiuhuang led the army of 20,000 Celestial Empire to travel day and night, and finally arrived at the junction of Batu close to the border of the Red Kingdom.

"Soldiers, let's hold on for a few more days, and when we arrive in Jingzhou, we will be able to have a good rest."

Looking at the tired army behind him and the slower and slower pace under his feet, Jiuhuang encouraged the morale of the soldiers.

When the soldiers of the Celestial Empire heard this, they all had a desire in their hearts to arrive in Jingzhou as soon as possible.

However, after traveling day and night, the soldiers were really tired and tired, and they wanted to speed up the pace under them, but they had more than enough strength but not enough strength.

At this moment, Baili, who was sent out by Jiuhuang to investigate the situation ahead, hurriedly returned with a horse and said, "County Lord, there are many Batu troops found ahead."

"What?" Jiuhuang exclaimed, he didn't expect to meet Batu's rescue army here.

"Do you know how many of them there are?"

Baili heard Jiuhuang's words, and then followed the answer he saw, and said, "It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of troops at the minimum, and hundreds of thousands at the most."

Jiuhuang nodded to Baili after hearing Baili's words.

I thought a little in my heart, so many of Batu's troops took mountain roads, so it should be the infantry and not the cavalry that they had been making good use of.

If they can meet Batu's army here, then the plain girl should be safe, Jiuhuang thought in his heart.

The army on his side is only 20,000, and Batu's army may be several times that of his side, and against them, Jiuhuang does not have much chance of victory in his hands.

"The army has stopped, the soldiers have rested and reorganized first, and we will not be in a hurry tonight."

Glancing at the sky that was approaching dusk, Jiuhuang ordered to the army behind him.

Hearing Jiuhuang's words, the army stopped, and the tired soldiers were finally able to rest for a while, and the 20,000 elite soldiers of the Celestial Empire all lay on their backs without caring about it.

Jiuhuang called Baili to the front and said, "You should also rest for a while, and wait until after nightfall, and let the army cut down the stout trees in this vicinity, and then use some branches to cut them into nails and bury them all in the place I marked."

At some point, Jiuhuang took out a marked sheepskin roll from his hand and put it on Baili's hand.

Baili took the parchment scroll in Jiuhuang's hand, looked at it, and was a little shocked in his heart, judging from the graphics marked on the Jiuhuang map, how did it feel a bit like the method used by Orion to hunt?

Baili was puzzled in his heart, and he also knew that Jiuhuang must have his own use for letting him do this, so he nodded and promised Jiuhuang that he would do what Jiuhuang explained.

As the sun sets, the night hits the sky, dressing the sky in a black dress, and the moon rises into the starry sky, revealing its white face.

According to Jiuhuang's instructions, Baili led the army to cut down trees and bury tree nails after nightfall.

After nearly two hours of hard work, the 20,000 Heavenly Dynasty army finally completed the task assigned by Jiuhuang.

And here, Buzz led an army of nearly 100,000 behind him towards the Nine Phoenixes.

"General, according to our spies, Jiuhuang is in this forest with the army of the Celestial Empire."

A scout approached Bass and said.

Hearing the scout's words, Bas looked at the forest in front of him, which was the forest on the border between Batu and the Red Kingdom, and was not under the jurisdiction of either of the two countries.

Thinking of what the scout had just said, Jiuhuang led the soldiers of the Celestial Empire in the forest, and a hint of pride flashed on Bass's face.

Bach led his army to the official road and failed to meet the Nine Phoenixes, but let himself meet him who walked the mountain road.

If he can capture the Nine Phoenixes and use the Nine Phoenixes as hostages, the Emperor of the Celestial Empire will definitely be able to exchange the cities of the Celestial Empire for the lives of the Nine Phoenixes, and no matter how strong the tribe of the Bach Mother Clan is, no one will be able to shake his position as the next King of Batu.

Thinking of this, Buzz's heart couldn't help but be happy, and then he said to the scout: "Are the Nine Phoenix and the army of the Celestial Empire really inside?"

The scout nodded and nodded like garlic.

Seeing the appearance of the scout, Bas was overjoyed, and said to the Batu army behind him: "The Lord of the Nine Phoenixes and the army of the Celestial Empire are in this forest in front of you, so you will go in with Prince Ben to capture the Nine Phoenix."

The army behind Bas was all following him, and when he heard Bath's words, Batu's army answered and went into the woods with Bath.

"Lord of the County, Bas and Batuu's army have entered the woods and are heading towards us."

A soldier came back from a probe and reported to Jiuhuang.

Bass came in with a large army? Jiuhuang's eyes flashed with a glimmer of pure essence, and then he said to the soldiers: "Continue to investigate."

"Yes!" The soldiers were ordered to go.

After several times, when the soldiers once again reported to Jiuhuang that the Batu army led by Batu had reached the trap they had set up a mile away, Jiuhuang asked all the soldiers of the Celestial Empire who had gone to investigate to return to the army.

Bass, who had been walking in the woods for a long time but still couldn't find the figure of the Nine Phoenix, looked at the scout who had told him about the military situation a little impatiently, and said, "The Nine Phoenix and the army of the Celestial Empire are really here?" You didn't lie to Prince Ben? ”

The scout suddenly heard Buzz say this. Frightened, he immediately knelt down and said, "Prince Mingcha, how dare the last general deceive the prince, the Lord of Jiuhuang County and the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty led by it are really in this forest." Hearing the scout's words, he looked at the scout for a long time, and from his expression, Buzz could tell that the scout was indeed not lying to him.

After a long silence, Buzz spoke up: "In this case, this prince will believe you once, if you can't find the Nine Phoenix after an hour, you know the consequences." ”

Of course, the scout understood the meaning of Bass's words. It's just that before the scout could make any guarantees to Bass, the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, who were under the will of the Nine Phoenix, suddenly let out some small sounds.

After Bai heard the voice, a smile flashed on his face, if he heard it correctly, the voice he heard just now was the voice of the Heavenly Empire.

"Hurry up, Jiuhuang and the others are in front, and the army will go forward with me."

Just as Bas led the army of nearly 100,000 Batu behind him to approach the Nine Phoenixes, in the woods, the Nine Phoenixes saw that the time was almost there, so they ordered the soldiers of the Celestial Empire to cut off the ropes that tied them to the trees they had cut first.

Thick tree trunks flew towards Batuu's army, and a wail suddenly rang out in the quiet woods.

Buzz didn't expect that he had just led the army forward for only a few meters, and a tree trunk rain ushered in, which frightened him and quickly hid behind his lieutenant.

Looking at the Batu army that was attacked by the rain of tree trunks, a flash of anger flashed in Bass's eyes, Jiuhuang had already set up an ambush in the woods, and waited for his own people to come in and send him to death.

It was only after the tree trunk rain fell and Bas was sure that nothing flew out to attack his army that he came out from behind the lieutenant general, and then led the army, and he must capture the nine phoenixes alive, and the other Celestial Empire armies will be killed.

Buzz saw that nothing was flying towards them, but forgot to check if the place they were stepping on was safe.

When the army in front of the line fell down in waves, the previous army of Jiuhuang dug up the trap with tree nails, and a wail sounded again in Batu's army.

The army of nearly 100,000 led by Bass has lost more than 20,000 people after the two traps of the Nine Phoenix.

Before he saw the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, his men and horses had already lost nearly 20,000 people, not to mention that these numbers were all the most heroic cavalry of his Batu, and the anger in Ba's heart had reached a point of rage.

After passing through the two traps of the Nine Phoenixes, Bass became cautious in his heart, and he no longer let the army rush forward, but sent a single soldier to investigate.

Seeing that his two traps had been used up, and Batu's army was not much, Jiuhuang already knew in his heart that their battle with Batu's army was inevitable.

It's just that she can hope that under the two traps, even if the losses of Batu's army are not large, Jiuhuang also hopes to weaken Batu's army.

Seeing that Bass sent soldiers to investigate, Jiuhuang ordered the army to be ready for battle at any time.

That is, although he suffered two losses at the hands of Jiuhuang and fell into the trap of Jiuhuang twice, but after the soldiers investigated, there was no trapping, Batu ordered the army to arrest Jiuhuang.

Under the darkness of the night, another great battle is unfolding.

The wind blew and the trees rustled, but these sounds could not drown out the sound of the battle between the two armies.

Roaring, the weapons collided with a screeching sound, and the blood stained the scattered leaves on the ground, which looked so strange in the light of the night.

Jiuhuang led the army of the Celestial Empire to tear apart with the army of Batu, watching the soldiers of the Celestial Empire around him be defeated by the army of Batu one after another, and the damage of the army of Batu was only one-tenth of the casualties of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire.

Seeing that this situation was not good, Jiuhuang said to Baili, who was leaning back and back with him: "Find a way to lead the army to retreat." ”

When Baili heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "County Lord, if we retreat backwards, we will also encounter the army pursued by Batu from the capital city." ”

Jiuhuang single-handedly killed a Batu army that came to her, saved a general who was about to die under the broadsword of the Batu army, and then took the opportunity to say to Baili: "Then think about retreating to the south." ”

In the south, it was on the famous desert of Chi Country, and when they entered the desert, they would also die for a lifetime, Baili thought in his heart.

"County Lord, to the south is the desert of the Red Country, if the army really retreats into it, then wouldn't we also die for the rest of our lives."

Hearing the words of Baili, Jiuhuang said: "Nine deaths and one life are better than the whole army being wiped out here, so I quickly ordered the army to retreat to the south." ”

The situation was not good and Jiuhuang's insistence, Baili could only listen to Jiuhuang's words and retreat to the southern desert with the army all the way.
