Zhao Qing's eyes lit up, and he looked at Sun Su and asked, "Isn't that area in front of us the so-called trap mentioned in the news that should come from our interior?" ”

Sun Su nodded and said, "Presumably so." ”

Zhao Qing thought for a while and said: "According to the internal report, they Pingtian Country planted mines in the central part of that empty area, which caused a large-scale subsidence, and if they want to directly bury our army alive, it is better for our soldiers to divide into two ways and bypass both sides of this area to avoid that subsidence area." ”

Sun Su looked at Zhao Qing and asked rhetorically, "Do you believe the matter of the ground sinking in their mouths?" ”

Zhao Qing was stunned for a moment, frowned, thought for a while, and said, "I have never heard of the land sinking. ”

At the end, Zhao Qing reacted and hurriedly said, "Master Sun, do you mean that there is no such thing as a trap at all?" Are they playing tricks? But what are they going to such great lengths to create illusions? ”

Sun Su said: "Maybe it's a delaying tactic, if we believe that their subsidence is a theory, they will bypass this area and pass through the jungle on both sides, then our march will take at least three more days, and in that geographical environment, it will be easier to lay traps." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Qing looked at the woods on both sides, nodded, and agreed with Sun Su's opinion in his heart, it was possible that Pingtian Guo had already seen through their internal response, and wanted to use this to confuse the marching route of Qu Yuguo's army.

"Then let's go directly to this continent?" Zhao Qing asked.

Sun Su shook his head and said, "No, the soldiers are divided into three routes, along the two sides and the middle of this open area, and the three lines are advancing side by side. ”

Zhao Qing nodded, and then ordered the army to be divided into three columns and march forward along three routes.

Zhao Qing was about to move forward with the middle team, but was stopped by Sun Su, Sun Su said: "Lord Zhao, let's wait here and wait and see what happens." ”

Zhao Qing nodded, returned to where he had been standing, and watched the three armies advance forward.

The soldiers in front of the army walked forward slowly, they were all nervous at this time, and after walking a few steps, beads of sweat oozed from their backs, and these soldiers understood that the generals and strategists of the team had stopped behind and watched, letting them go first, indicating that there must be something strange in this place.

'Is there an enemy ambush or a trap?' As he walked, the soldier watched and listened to all directions, for fear that suddenly there would be a killing machine somewhere.

General Zhao Qing in the back held the hilt of his sword and stared at the soldiers in the front, if there was really a subsidence as they said, the blow to this team would be a catastrophe.

Sun Su squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, his face expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.

As the minutes ticked by, the three teams had reached the middle of the open area, and the tension in the ranks had reached a peak.

The team was still advancing, and there had been no oddities yet, and as soon as they were about to cross this strange area, the hearts of the soldiers that had been hanging slowly relaxed.

Zhao Qing also breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Sun Sudao, and said: "Lord Sun's clever plan, that ground is really empty, and he wants us..."

"Boom!" The sound was so heavy that it could be heard coming from the ground, and everyone was shocked, and the team was instantly confused.

Sun Su frowned, the feather fan in his hand swayed suddenly, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.

When the explosion sounded, the people standing in the explosion area were directly blown away, and the people in the distance hurriedly retreated from a safe distance, and before they could catch their breath, hundreds of bombs suddenly exploded one after another under the ground around them.

"Boom." There was an explosion, the whole ground shook, the people in the center of the explosion were killed on the spot, and the more terrible was still behind, in the flying soil, there were countless sharp pieces of broken iron, driven by the impact of the explosion, the fragments flew rapidly around, like a flying sword, directly through the armor of the soldiers, shooting countless soldiers.

"No!" Zhao Qing, the general in the rear, was stunned when he saw such a scene, and shouted angrily.

Sun Su's eyes widened, and he was surprised to find that the explosion area was scattered on both sides of this open area, while the area in the middle, which was said to have subsidence, was intact at this time.

There were no bombs under the feet of the soldiers marching in the middle area, but many people were still injured by the fragments in the bombs, some were hit by fragments in the legs and collapsed to the ground, some were hit by fragments in the face, and their trembling hands did not dare to touch them, but could only howl in pain, and some were unfortunately hit by fragments in the neck and died on the spot.

But the situation of the soldiers in the middle area was also much better than on both sides, after the series of explosions, most of the soldiers on both sides were killed and wounded, and the rest of the people poured into the middle area regardless of it, crowded together, and no one dared to approach either side.

For a time, the middle of the open area was crowded with soldiers, and only corpses were left on both sides, and there were only 60,000 or 70,000 people left on both sides, among whom there were many wounded soldiers, of varying degrees of severity.

Seeing this, General Zhao Qing in the rear roared and ordered: "Advance!" ”

Sun Su seemed to think of something, his face changed greatly, and he said, "Don't! ”

Before he could react, a group of people suddenly poured out of the bushes on the opposite side of the open area, pushing more than a dozen giant crossbows like ox carts, aiming at the middle line.

The all-steel crossbow arrows on the giant crossbow were already ready to be arrowed, reflecting the cold light in the sun, and with a command, the crossbow arrows on all the giant crossbows were fired out together, like lightning, and the sharp arrows tore through the air, producing a slight detonation sound, like the whisper of death.

The soldiers of Qu Yuguo who were crowded in the middle of the battle line widened their eyes, they had just seen the dozen or so black lines in the air that were rapidly approaching, the black lines were already close in front of them, and the next moment they were like entering a no-man's land, and they instantly passed through the bodies of five or six soldiers.

The soldier standing at the front looked down at the hole in his body, his shocked eyes gradually became blank, and finally he lay down on the ground weakly.

Because the soldiers of the middle front were all crowded together, the density was extremely high, and a round of fifteen arrows from the giant crossbow on this side killed nearly 100 people on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, the giant crossbow on the opposite side was loaded with a life-threatening crossbow arrow, and crossed the border under an order.

"Ahh Run! The soldiers of Qu Yuguo were completely frightened, they watched as the terrible crossbow bolts passed through the bodies of several people, and the shields and armor were powerless to stop them, and they ran to both sides, avoiding the giant crossbow targets on the middle front.

However, as soon as they ran to both sides, they once again caused mines under their feet, and the explosion restarted, taking countless lives with them.

The soldiers in the middle watched the soldiers who ran to both sides being blown to pieces, their legs trembled with fright, and they didn't dare to cross the thunder pool, but they stayed in the middle and were about to be shot through the body by the terrible giant crossbow, they watched the soldiers in front of them fall in rows, and the last psychological defense line finally collapsed, and they fled backwards with a cry.

General Zhao Qing's face was already as black as the bottom of a pot, he trembled with anger, drew his sword and shouted: "Deserter, military law will deal with it!" As he spoke, he directly cut down the first soldier who fled back, and the rest of the soldiers were stunned on the spot, whether they were retreating or advancing.

After a short period of hesitation, the giant crossbow on the opposite side had already shot seven or eight rounds of crossbow arrows, killing nearly 10,000 people on the spot.

Sun Su's face was also ugly at this time, and he said in a deep voice: "Withdraw the troops." ”

Zhao Qing was furious and shouted, "You can't withdraw your troops!" ”

"If you don't withdraw your troops at this time, do you want to wipe out the whole army?" Sun Su glared at Zhao Qingdao.

"If you lose, it's better to die!" Zhao Qing yelled angrily.

At this time, a soldier behind Zhao Qing suddenly raised his long sword and stabbed Zhao Qing in the back of the heart.

'Huh', the long sword directly pierced Zhao Qing's body.

Zhao Qing's eyes widened, he looked down at the tip of the sword exposed on his chest, his face twitched, he slowly turned around, and saw the face of the unknown soldier who assassinated him, he slowly raised the long sword in his hand, wanted to fight back, but couldn't lift it, and finally, he fell.
