Section 40 "Smack-"

At this time, a serpentine lightning bolt happened to hit the top of Cangqian Mountain, and just a dozen meters away from Xilie's side, two Nanban warriors let out a miserable scream and fell down from the concave cliff at the top of the mountain. The screams are terrible, and the corresponding sound in the wind and rain is even more creepy.

Even the always elegant Youlute's face changed, he looked at Li Yuan, who was fighting with a few personal soldiers more than ten meters away, and shouted: "Lie Shuai, it's really dangerous here, you see ......"

He knew that Xilie wiped a handful of rain from his face, and his white beard trembled. Haha laughed: "Good opportunity, pass the order, the elephant soldiers will launch!" ”

Youlute followed his gaze, and saw that on the battlefield, the rear army of the Han army led by Xie Chuan saw the danger of Shuai Qi, so he left the battlefield without permission and leaned towards the rear.

Now the two sides are in a state of stalemate, and the Han army is composed of some miscellaneous armies of the children of the family, and his retreat has become a trend of defeat and retreat. The pressure on the Chinese army has increased greatly. They shouted, and they ran. As a result, the momentum of defeat and retreat spread like a plague among the Han army.

The prince could see clearly on the high platform, and his face suddenly turned pale, and he stood up, and was about to say something, but a stream of blood spurted out from the sky, and then fell from the high platform.

"Your Highness—"

Tao Yu let out an exclamation, stretched out his hand to push away He Yi, who was taking care of her, and jumped off the high platform. panicked, He Yi also screamed, and jumped down after him.

Wu Ming was taken aback, turned his head, and just happened to see this scene. He was about to go back to the rescue, but now he was surrounded by enemies, and he was distracted there. Jiuzhi, who was attacking him, suddenly seized the opportunity and slapped him on the chest with a palm.

He suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had been struck by lightning. A mouthful of blood gushes up. but he swallowed it back. He retreated several steps in a row, and at this time, Re Lang attacked people, and the steaming hands came over again, which was aimed at the part where Wu Ming was injured just now. Wu Ming hurriedly raised his sword to block his chest.

Jiuzhi let out a strange cry and suddenly withdrew his right palm.

This thing made him suffer a big loss just now, and he must have been a god soldier, communicating fire attributes by himself, and fighting fiercely in the rain, which was the most loss. He didn't dare to take it hard.

Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound, and the ground trembled. Wu Ming looked up suspiciously.

I saw that in the depths of the dense forest behind, in the water curtain, under the cover of thunder and rain, one black elephant after another had rushed out. On each elephant was a soldier on top, dressed in a cloak and wearing a hat. Hold a long javelin. The white ivory shimmered in the rain.

The earth was trembling, and this behemoth, which was nearly ten meters long and about four meters tall, made Wu Ming experience the horror of a tank-like charge in the era of cold weapons.

Hundreds of elephant cavalry more than two meters in length rushed towards the Han army's main formation from behind!

Wu Ming took care of other things at this time, turned around and ran to the prince's side, but saw the prince in Tao Yu's arms, his face was as pale as paper. But a pair of eyes were fixed on the swarming elephant riders. It's scary.

At this time, a shaking cry sounded on the battlefield ahead, the rout of the Han army was already complete, and everyone didn't need to go up to the high platform to watch, they could hear it with their ears.

At this time, the defensive formation of the guards battalion was finally broken open by the Nanban, and the four Nanban warriors had already rushed behind Wu Ming with their knives.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Zuo Ying couldn't care about being tired, roared angrily, rushed forward, and brought up a phantom with the long sword in his hand, and stabbed a southern barbarian on the spot. The other three Nanban warriors were taken aback. Immediately abandoned Wu Ming, and slashed at the left shadow with his sword. Looking at the speed of these three people's shots, they are clearly martial artists. Left shadow left branch right frustration. For a while, there was a lot of danger.

Seeing this, Wu Ming rushed forward, his whole body once again flashed with a golden light, and he slashed at one of them.

The sword was unleashed in a hurry, as fast as lightning. One of the fighters only had time to dodge sideways, but was still stabbed in the cross. Wu Ming pulled out the 'red night' and slashed a person's head with another sword. Another soldier was stunned when he saw Wu Ming so brave. But the left shadow saw the right time. Slashed down with a sword in his face.

The blood of the Southern Barbarians splattered out, splashing Wu Ming's face. Wu Ming looked at the blood stains on Tian's mouth, but it was also salty and salty, and it smelled fishy, and he said to the prince: "Your Highness, there is no way, let's leave for the time being, in order to make a comeback." ”

The prince slowly stood up, staring closely at the elephant rider who had rushed to his side less than 100 meters, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Is it a comeback?" It's impossible, there's nothing left, the 200,000 army is all destroyed, what face do I have to make a comeback? ”

He looked at the soldiers of the Guards Battalion who were still fighting around him, and shouted, "Brothers, thank you for fighting to the death. Xuanyuan was incompetent. It's affected you, and it's affected by 200,000 soldiers. If you want to blame me, scold me severely. ”

Wu Ming also felt that his nose was sour, the prince was probably in deep remorse now, if he had listened to Wu Ming and General Chen earlier, although he was defeated and retreated, he would not have suffered such heavy casualties.

At this time, I heard a scream from the periphery, and the left shadow faced the siege of several people alone, and one was careless, and was caught by Sendagan, and his right leg was cut off with a sword, and the blood flowed like a pour. Tian Hong next to him was shocked and hurriedly raised his sword to save him. But now that everyone was facing several enemies alone, as soon as he walked away, the square formation of the Han army suddenly became chaotic.

The prince suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

The laughter was as fierce as ice, piercing the sky. Both sides of the war estimated that they had stopped, and they couldn't help but stagnate, and the enemy's offensive paused.

He slowly turned his head, looked at Wu Ming standing behind him, and then looked at the "Red Night" sword in Wu Ming's hand, and said: "Heaven is evil, you can still live, you can do it yourself, you can't live!" Ah Ming, you are right, people are doing it, the sky is watching, Xuanyuan is ashamed of the 200,000 soldiers of the Southern Expedition. Now, let's pay with death. ”

Wu Ming shouted: "Your Highness, ......" but his lips trembled, and he choked speechlessly.

At this time, hundreds of elephants were already wrapped in a strong wind and rain, and stepped into the defensive position of the Han army. The soldiers of the Guards Battalion suffered heavy casualties and fought desperately to resist.

However, the group of elephants rushed forward, black and oppressive, invulnerable, unstoppable; With a slight touch of its long snout, it curls up and smashes it to pieces: the great elephant's hooves step on the man, and the man becomes a meatloaf.

In the heavy rain, the light body kung fu was also weakened to the extreme, and it was ineffective to flicker and move. Poor Praetorian Battalion soldiers have no martial arts. But there is nothing to be done about this invulnerable big guy.

"Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-" Several javelins pierced the prince. Wu Ming threw the prince to the ground and dodged the fatal blow: "Your Highness, let's go." We can't stop it. ”

The prince's eyes were red, and he suddenly pushed down Wu Ming. I picked up a spear on the ground. Let out a shout and stab at the knight on a war elephant. The shot was accurate and ruthless, hitting the knight in the thigh.

"Bang-" The elephant's trunk rolled sideways, and it was smashing on the prince's back. The prince suddenly fell to the ground again. A few more javelins pierced and hit the prince's vest.

"Your Highness—" Tao Yu let out a heart-rending cry from the rain. Like a cuckoo weeping blood, and then he fell to the ground.

Wu Ming's eyes were cracking, he pulled out the "Red Night" sword, and snatched it from the prince.

Sideways over a few javelins, when grabbing the prince's side. In the angry shout, the injured knight just now urged the elephant, rolled the trunk again, and pointed at Wu Ming. Wu Ming gave way sideways and teased with his backhand. ......The elephant trunk that was stronger than gold and iron was cut off by "Chixiao" and flew away.

The elephant went berserk and refused to listen to the command again. Rampage through the elephant array.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Ming picked up the prince and ran: "Everyone retreat quickly!" Ge Yi, you quickly go to protect the crown princess. ”

Ge Yi was still in the mood to talk to Wu Ming about this kind of order. When he heard the words, he went to pull Tao Yu, who was on the ground.

In front of an invulnerable monster like Elephant Ride. The soldiers of the Praetorian Guard, armed with long swords, had no chance of winning at all. The remaining more than a hundred fighters listened to orders. Quickly leaned towards the crown princess.

Fortunately, although these elephants were powerful, they could not move faster than the guards. Many of the Guards Battalion fighters were evacuated safely.

"Smack-"

At this time, a lightning bolt fell, and with this lightning, Wu Ming suddenly saw He Yizheng holding a long sword that he didn't know where to pick up, looking at the swarming Nanban army. There was a look of absolute surprise on his face, and then he pierced his heart.

Wu Ming's heart was shocked, He Tian's pale face flashed in front of him, he shouted violently, jumped up suddenly, and kicked the long sword in the opponent's hand.

"He is the sister of Brother He Tian, come and carry him away!" Wu Ming shouted.

Immediately snatched out a warrior, picked up He Yi and ran.

The remaining more than 300 soldiers of the Guards Battalion followed Wu Ming and quickly ran towards a small hill next to it, where there was a forest and a majestic mountain behind it, as long as they entered, they would have a chance to get rid of the pursuit of the Southern Barbarians. Get out safely.

However, although the elephant cavalry could not catch up, more Nanbarians followed after the soldiers of the Guards Battalion.

At this time, Tian Hong had already carried the left shadow on his back, and he said loudly as he ran: "My lord, it's not a way to go on like this, they are chasing behind, and we can't get rid of it." ”

"I'll ......"

Wu Ming gritted his teeth and was about to say something.

At this time, Yan Hou's voice came: "Lord Wu, you lead the Xuanwu soldiers to retreat, and I will take the rest of the soldiers to the palace." ”

Wu Ming stretched his neck and was about to argue, but Yan Hou shouted: "Don't be a mother-in-law anymore, you go quickly, protect the crown princess, protect the bloodline of the Han family, and protect our last bit of hope." ”

Wu Ming was ruthless and cried: "Commander, take care!" ”

Then he waved his hand to the surrounding soldiers and said, "Xuanwu members, come with me!" ”

The people were now in charge of other things, so they had to bow their heads and rush in the torrential rain.

Behind him, the shouting of killing came again, it was Yan Hou leading the remaining guards battalion soldiers to snipe the enemy.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the whole world became hazy. Bright red blood flowed everywhere on the ground.

Suddenly, a neat singing voice came from behind him, and Yan Hou's old voice was particularly tragic in the middle:

Who guards the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?

Pedal Xiongguan smiles to the sky!

Is a seven-foot man afraid of burial?

I am willing to fight the battlefield with this body!

The tears in Wu Ming's eyes couldn't hold back any longer, and burst out of his eyes.

In the distance, I don't know if it's gone away, or if the battle is over, the cry and the cry have slowly subsided. He looked at the torrential rain that continued to pour from the void, and said to the prince on his back: "Your Highness, Wu Ming swears here, in this life. will lead the Han family. Come here again. ”

Behind him, the prince "cooed", and the breath that had been in his chest for a long time was suddenly released. Wu Ming suddenly felt that the body of the prince on his back had begun to slowly stiffen.

Wu Ming glanced back again and muttered, "I will come back, I will definitely come back." ”

"Karma ......"

In the distance, the banner of the Han army was finally broken by the elephant soldiers. On the battlefield, there was a faint call. In the cheers, there is despair hidden.

The first plan is to kill people with a knife
