Chapter 87: Dance of the Tigers and Demons
The Tiger Pass is not the only way to reach Luoyang, but the shortest distance suitable for a large army to advance is to cross the Tiger Pass. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
To the south of the Tiger Prison is the Qinling Mountains, where dense vegetation and mountains can make the march very difficult. To the north is the Yellow River, and according to intelligence, LΓΌ Bu's troops are cruising along the Yellow River, and they will not allow anyone to build a pontoon bridge.
Heading south around Hanoi may also be an option, but it's still a matter of trying to cross the Yellow River...... And now the area around Wen County, Hanoi County, is also the territory of the demon army, and according to intelligence, there are 500,000 demon troops stationed there.
In addition, Dong Zhuo is just after the Tiger Prison Pass, and the formation will be completed at any time, so there is no extra time to make a detour now. Forcibly attacking the Tiger Prison Pass has become the only option for the allies!
Tiger Prison Pass is not very far from Bishui Town, and the allied forces that originally attacked Bishui should have arrived first. Unexpectedly, it was the Yellow Turban Army, the army that attacked Xingyang, who arrived first. When Li Meng chose to retreat, in fact, he was not worried that the Yellow Turban Army would suddenly attack him in the rear? Otherwise, how could the dignified generals retreat so easily on the battlefield?!
At this moment, under the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Bu has been stationed outside the pass for a long time, and the demon army camp stretches out for more than five miles. Except for a small number of tents, most of the demon armies lived in the open air, after all, they were just some monsters, and Lu Bu didn't care about them at all.
It didn't take long for the coalition forces to arrive at the Tiger Prison, and they couldn't help but be terrified when they looked at this dense monster.
"To say the least, there are more than 200,000, and the strength is not on the table, but the number is not good!" Looking at these demon armies in front of him, whether it is the power of the Han army or the sequence of the Yellow Turban Army, he can't help but have such thoughts.
The total number of coalition forces is indeed as high as more than 100,000, but they are fighting separately, and seeing this scene has made many small and medium-sized forces begin to retreat, let alone advance, and they are already worthy of the coalition forces if they do not escape.
In other words, the existence of these flag-waving and cheering is simply unreliable, and less than 30,000 people can actually participate in the battle.
30,000 against more than 200,000, and they actually have to defeat the other party in the shortest possible time, I am afraid that no one will be willing to fight this war before. It's just that so far, the Terrans have few options.
"Send all the strong bows, don't ask those small and medium-sized forces to help the war, so I can suppress the opponent's attack with arrows! If you can't do that, send them on your way first! Zhang Ning directly issued an ultimatum, and this proposal was also approved by Liu Xie's side.
It is a matter of life and death for the human race, and no one will be allowed to retreat. 30,000 of them are ready to die here, how can the other 70,000 sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?
Among this group of people, the leaders of the next generation of the Yellow Turban Army led by Pei Yuanshao and Du Yuan were the most painful, how free they were to be the emperor of the local separatist side, and they came to the alliance in order to save face, but they didn't expect to avoid the end of going to the battlefield.
On the contrary, just like Zhou Cang and Liao Hua, although they are also the main affairs of one party, they actively responded to the call of the alliance leader, and there are not many people under their command, only three or five hundred, but they are also fully engaged in the battlefield.
These days, Chen Tao has also paid more attention to the two of them, Zhou Cang is born with divine power, and Liao Hua is loyal and righteous, both of them are very rare talents. It's not that they haven't been directly solicited, but the two said that they still need to think about it, after all, giving up the power in their hands to join others will inevitably need to be weighed.
"These ants, they're finally here!" The tiger prison was closed, and Lu Bu couldn't help but smile as he looked at the coalition camp in the distance. He did not launch an attack on the Yellow Turban Army at the first time, just because he planned to annihilate the coalition forces.
It took a lot of effort to mobilize these 200,000 monsters, but in fact, it was far from over, and among the mountains on both sides of the Tiger Prison Pass, he had already mobilized another 200,000 monsters, and they could go down the mountain to attack at any time.
Lu Bu had already thought about it, if the other party was willing to retreat, for the sake of everyone being a human race before, he could let them live a little longer. If the other party is not afraid of death and dares to attack, then they will inevitably regret being a man.
But now it seems that these coalition forces are still not afraid of death, and they know what the demon army values most at this stage, so they are still stunned and run over to die! Since they don't want to live anymore, let them get their wish!
Lu Bu waved his hand violently and gave the order for a general attack.
In the Tiger Prison Pass, two pillars of beacon fire were quickly ignited, which was the signal for the general attack. The demon armies on both sides of the Tiger Prison Pass also received the news almost immediately, and began to kill them from the mountains or jungles.
At the same time, there were also bursts of horns among the demon army in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, accompanied by the general attack of the demon army.
At this moment, the coalition forces suddenly understood why the demon army had not launched an attack for a long time, obviously there was such a big gap in the number of people between the two sides. It turned out that the demon army was waiting for the Han army to come to converge at the beginning, and at the same time, it was also actively deploying ambushes on both sides.
Now that there is a shortage of three people, it seems that the only way to survive is to retreat the same way.
"I'm not playing anymore!" Under this pressure, the heads of some small strongholds have collapsed and fled with them.
"There is no forgiveness for those who escape!" Zhang Ning and Liu Xie shouted violently, these principals, together with their troops, were slaughtered by the coalition forces almost immediately, they did not die in the hands of the demon army, but died in the hands of their own people.
There is no way to do this, if they are allowed to escape, this fear of war will quickly spread to the whole army. There was no need to fight, and most of the soldiers would flee one after another.
Now it's good, more than 2,000 people have been killed, but the rest of the soldiers have been united. Everyone finally understood that if they wanted to escape in this situation, it was almost a dead end. Instead, he is desperate with the demon army, and maybe there is still a glimmer of life.
"Listen, everybody, strongbow ready, free to shoot!" Zhang Ning and Liu Xie issued orders one after another, but in fact, in such a chaotic environment, it was impossible to shoot in an organized manner, and free shooting was the only feasible method.
Most of the Coalition Beings had never practiced bows and arrows, but they didn't need much practice, just put the arrow on the bowstring, and then raise it at a forty-five degree angle and shoot it. Familiar ones can choose to shoot flat to attack the demon army in front, and unfamiliar ones can throw to shoot the demon army in the rear to the maximum.
The so-called free fire, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts and knows how to get the most out of shooting.
Fortunately, everyone is a martial arts practitioner, and it is not a problem for the three-stone bow to be opened, and more than tens of thousands of arrows have been shot out in all directions one after another. In the face of a dense army of monsters, you don't even need to aim, as long as you shoot an arrow, you can almost hit the demon army, and if you are lucky, you can even kill it in the first place.
The dead demon army immediately caused other monsters to start eating, and they accepted the domination of the demons, but it does not mean that they will forget their wildness. Even if they are of the same clan, they can eat it with peace of mind, and then transform it into stronger energy.
A large number of monsters began to advance to become demon pawns, and a small number of demon pawns as elite commanders began to advance to demon wars.
Lu Bu didn't worry about their large number of deaths at all, this was similar to raising Gu, the more monsters died, the stronger the remaining monsters became, and in the end, even if there were only a dozen left, at least they would be at the level of demon bravery.
The fact that the coalition army was equipped with so many strong bows was indeed beyond his expectations, but it did not bother him to watch the show.
"How many can you kill? 100,000, or 200,000? Lu Bu muttered with interest.
On the side of the coalition forces, the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer, and Zhang Ning and Liu Xie have arranged for manpower to resist the opponent's attack at the forefront. At the same time, in the middle position, all the Qi Practitioners began to prepare to cast spells, and the last ones who did not have the courage to directly fight the demon army continued to shoot with bows and arrows, and all the arrows were piled up in front of them.
In a short period of time, more than 40,000 or so demon troops have been shot, and even if they are wounded, they will be killed by the follow-up demon armies and then eaten.
These guys don't have the concept of companions at all, at least not until they are born into demons, only the instinct to get stronger. Therefore, if they find that their comrades are injured or killed around them, they will subconsciously eat each other, instead of attacking more vigorously towards the front, even if they are restrained by demon pawns, it is useless.
Fortunately, the speed of monsters is not worse than that of humans, and excluding those slow-moving resentful ghosts and purple zombies, the movement speed of yaksha and hungry ghosts is still very impressive. Coupled with the fact that he is not afraid of death, the distance of hundreds of meters is only instantaneous.
"Attack!" Zhang Ning gave an order, and all the Yellow Turban Army Qi Practitioners attacked. Most of these monks are demon cultivators, and of course, since the invasion of demon pawns, they prefer to call themselves 'evil cultivators', and their attack methods are of course also evil.
Zhang Yan's method is to use the Dao Talisman, which is actually to make the evil ghost hurt people. He had two evil ghosts in his hands that had reached the level of ghost generals, which were actually the souls of Yang Feng and Huang Long. This kind of evil ghost, the physical attack is ineffective, although the power will inevitably decrease under the sun, but the evil ghost who is not afraid of the sword is still very powerful in the midst of the demons.
The others have their own methods, but they are also slightly disgraceful. One of them sacrificed a ghost baby, which was made from the blood sacrifice of a baby born during the nine lunar years, the moon, and the sun, and could eventually grow nine heads as the strength increased. The method is very evil, but it is also very simple to refine, as long as you are careful not to be counterattacked, then it is a powerful help.
There are also people who are good at using poison, and suddenly blow out a powerful poisonous phosphorus powder, which is no less powerful than the poisonous mist curse, and it is rare that it is less affected by the wind, so that Chen Tao wants to buy the cultivation method of this trick.
Compared with the Yellow Turban Army, the monks on the Han Army's side were more orthodox, and common methods such as the 'Fire Curse' or the 'Wind Blade Curse' were also constantly played, and some demon troops could be killed more or less.
Of course, Chen Tao can also use the Poison Claw Spell or the Poison Mist Spell to kill the enemy to the maximum, but he is too lazy to bother. With both hands spread, more than 500 talisman seals appeared in his hands. Although they are all low-level runes, they are superior to the large number of them.
These are all his previous pen works, and the total number is about 1,000. There are only more than 500 attacks in the category, all of which are the most basic rune seals, and what can be hit are relatively low-level spells such as fireballs or wind blades.
However, he has learned talismans in the end, and he has methods that others do not have. More than 500 spells were directly triggered by him, but instead of directly releasing the spell, they began to have a special connection with each other.
These more than 500 spells, with 100 groups of five element spells, are directly connected to each other in the form of mutual restraint in the case of Chen Tao's triggering, forming a huge five elements killing array, covering thousands of square meters, which is Chen Tao's limit range.
"Extinguish!" I saw Chen Tao shouting violently, and the formation directly erupted with powerful damage, even if it was a martial cultivator in the foundation building period, in other words, even if Lu Bu was directly in this formation, I was afraid that he would not be able to escape his life.
Those low-level monsters are naturally even more difficult to spare!
At that moment, all the armies stopped attacking, just because on the battlefield, an area of thousands of square meters was suddenly vacated!
