46. Talk and laugh on the battlefield to break ghosts
"Knock, knock, knock"
The low sound of war drums, evoking ominous sounds, echoed through the camp, signaling another battle.
Li Baoguo, who was sitting on a box and eating silently, heard the sound of drums, so he stuffed the dried meat in his hand into his mouth, chewed a few times, grabbed the bloodstained iron gun in his hand, and stood up.
The moment he got up, he felt a little dizzy, and his tall body shook a few times before standing firm again.
"There are too many divine martial arts."
Li Baoguo moved his sore neck and said something in his heart.
This martial arts secret technique passed down by Shen Qiu, in the place where the aura exists, can indeed allow the martial artist to get a bit of the power to deal with the heroic spirit's fierce battle, but its side effects are also quite obvious.
The mortal body is difficult to withstand the weight of the aura, even if it is only mixed with the true qi for explosives, in a short period of time, many times of use, it will make the body extremely tired.
Li Baoguo glanced around, and all the Dao Leaders of the Jade Emperor Palace not far away were all pranayama with their eyes closed, already exhausted.
Tiance Xiao will raise his head, the sky is still cloudy, and the heavy black clouds block the sun, from the first battle of the ghosts, to protect the safety of the camp, until now, how long has it passed?
How many hours?
Or have you been fighting all night?
Under the oppressive dim light overhead, the flow of time seemed to become a very blurry thing.
They have repelled three attacks by the demons.
Now, it's the fourth time.
There were soldiers running in the camp, and Li Baoguo walked out of this resting place, and saw that Daoist Chonghe and several Xuanmen Taoist priests were distributing talisman paper and talisman water to the soldiers.
With these things to inherit spiritual power and turn into simple Taoist techniques to bless the soldiers, they can make them hurt ghosts.
It's a pity that the Jade Emperor Palace Xuanmen re-cultivated Taoism, the time is still short, and many Taoist materials have long been absent in this era, so they can only make these most basic Taoist talismans.
If there were more and more powerful Dao blessings, this battle would not be so difficult.
"Tired?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind Li Baoguo.
Together, there was a small wine jug handed to him, a very delicate porcelain bottle, and a black flannel lining, exuding a smell of wine.
"Drink some, I'll fight for a while, don't drink too much."
The man admonished again.
Li Baoguo shook his head and said:
"I don't know how Weihou governs the army, but when my Tiance army fights, from the general, everyone is not allowed to drink a drop of wine, and those who violate the order will be beheaded."
"Hey, the hair hasn't grown yet, so tell the old man a big truth?"
Weihou, who was also wearing armor, snorted disdainfully, and when he saw that Li Baoguo didn't answer, he took the porcelain bottle back, poured it into his mouth, wiped his mouth, and looked outside the camp.
In the dim skylight, there was a dark shadow in the distance like a tide.
"They're getting more and more numerous."
Zhao Lian put the wine jug in his personal pocket, took the helmet from the hands of his own soldiers, buckled it on his head, and took his long-handled broadsword, holding it in his hand, he looked at the strange corpses outside the camp, all over the floor, and said:
"That lifeless child fought three battles, with us to kill ten thousand ghosts, the power of the sea of blood is really powerful, but it is also the end of the strong crossbow, the knife in the baby's hand is strange, when the battle is over, the old man looks at it, there are signs of loss of control.
In this battle, he is afraid that he will not be able to go into battle again. ”
"It's the same with him or not."
Li Baoguo also buckled his red helmet on his head, he waved the spear in his hand, and said:
"Once we are here, we will fight to the death, and if we can return those supernatural ghosts three times, we can return them a fourth time."
Weihou was silent for a few breaths, and then he said:
"The old man has sent a military order, and the 20,000 elite border troops stationed in the plain are coming in the starry night, and the forward has just crossed the Yellow River at this time, and it will take at least half a day to reach this place.
But there are more than 70,000 ghost soldiers, although they were killed and retreated by us, but there is a steady stream of people in the rear, and there are 20,000 elites of the Japanese headquarters, which have also arrived at the battlefield, and this battle is very dangerous. ”
"Isn't this all thanks to Weihou?"
Li Baoguo didn't have a good impression of the soldiers in the south, he said with a hint of sarcasm:
"Knowing that the Hundred Battles Army is not a good thing, and he still has to take them to be stationed in Qilu, Weihou wants to take a shortcut and renew the life of your Zhao dynasty, but it has caused today's disaster.
My father was right, Weihou was a brilliant general, but he lacked vision. ”
"Listen to him Li Shouguo's nonsense!"
Zhao Lian scolded.
But then, the old man's mood fell.
He said:
"Yes, this is all the old man's fault, a thought is wrong, causing such a catastrophe, the old man's death is not enough to make up for it... Withdraw with your soldiers. ”
"Huh?"
Li Baoguo looked back in amazement, looked at Zhao Lian, and said:
"Are you crazy? Without my Tiance army's strategy to divide the battlefield, this tired army in your camp is afraid that the ghosts will rush and the whole army will be annihilated. ”
"Hehe, Li family child, don't underestimate the old man."
Zhao Lian pursed his eyes and said to Li Baoguo:
"When it comes to fighting, you kid, you don't deserve to lift shoes for the old man, the old man just said, the old man made the sin, the old man will pay it back with his own hands, and before the old man dies in battle, the ghosts will not step on this thunder pool!
You take your soldiers, as well as those warriors and Taoists, and return to Jinan City, where you can recuperate, waiting for reinforcements from all sides, and the old man will buy time for you.
And that Fan Qingqing, take her out of this dangerous place! ”
Wei Hou touched his beard, he looked at the Tiance cavalry who had regrouped in front of the camp, squinted his eyes, and said:
"Li family child, tell me honestly, the two thousand cavalry you brought this time are not the forbidden army of the Great Chu royal family, Shaoguangwei?"
"It's not!"
Li Baoguo flatly denied it, saying:
"This is a recruit I trained in Luoyang."
"Shit! Just you, can you train such a strong army? ”
Zhao Lian sneered and said:
"Is it true that the old man is blind?
Don't forget, the old man was also a general of Da Chu, and I also know the tactics of Shaoguangwei, after the fire in the Lin'an Forbidden Palace, Shaoguangwei was disbanded.
Unexpectedly, Li Shouguo's old dog actually secretly rebuilt this kind of army. ”
He paused, lowered his voice, and asked:
"Fan Qingqing, but a descendant of the Great Chu royal family?"
Li Baoguo did not answer.
But silence is also an answer.
"Hehe, alas, no wonder Li Shouguo, an old man who has been hardened all his life, is willing to grovel, and my Zhao family has been in conflict with the snake for more than 20 years, and he has done his best to preserve the independence of the Tiance Army.
I see.
He has really always been a loyal minister of Da Chu, and the old man has been fighting with him all his life, but in the end, he became a rebellious thief, which is really ironic. ”
Zhao Lian sighed.
Seeing that Li Baoguo was about to go out of the camp to fight, he stepped forward, grabbed Li Baoguo's wrist, and said in a deep voice:
She also fought this battle, faced with the fierce ghost, went into battle in person, did not take a step back, and won three battles and three victories, which was enough to spread her prestige. Now it's time for her to go.
The blood of nobles is so noble that it should not be shed here! Since you are a loyal minister of Great Chu, you will take your lord out of danger! ”
Wei Hou laughed.
Li Baoguo's face remained unchanged, he reached out to remove Weihou's hand, and said:
"The lord of my family will not leave, she and I came here to protect the tens of millions of people of Qilu, as a king, how can we sit back and watch the people suffer from plunder?
I'm not here to spread my prestige!
I'm here to expel the ghosts, to win! Don't say that my lord will not leave, and everyone who comes with her will not take a step back.
I'll win! ”
Li Baoguo looked ahead, and countless ghost pawns had turned into black tides, screaming in the yin wind, like a noisy and earth-destroying rolling turbidity, and attacked the camp again.
"We have to win!"
Tian Ce Xiao will no longer pay attention to the Wei Hou behind him, he took a few steps forward, turned over on his horse, raised the spear in his hand, and more than a thousand cavalry quickly changed formations, quickly forming a charging formation.
At the front of the camp, the ghost scholar was wearing armor and was commanding loudly.
The various units of the anti-bandit army also lined up in front of the battalion.
The soldiers were very tired, and their hearts were full of fear, after all, they were fighting against ghosts, which was much more terrible than some green forest hero.
But the more this happened, the stronger their determination to resist.
The ghost army in front of them will not accept submission, they will only drown everything, turn a number of living beings into one of them, if you don't want to die, don't want to turn into ghosts, there is only one choice.
"Defeat them! Kill them all! ”
Wu Shifeng's hoarse shout echoed in front of the battle array, and the ghost scholar stood in the crowd with a big knife in his hand, shouting:
"That's the only way for us to survive! Don't think about it, but fight to the death! ”
No one responded.
Everyone was tired, but everyone clenched their swords and guns, and a common hatred that did not need to be spoken in words overflowed over the earth in the dim light of the sky.
"I've killed more than 170 ghost warriors."
On the flank of the bandit army, Zhang Xiaohu, who was wearing fist gloves, sat on a blood-stained boulder with a golden knife, and behind him were a group of black-clothed boxers, all of whom were the elite of the Heluo Gang.
He stared at the ghosts rolling in front of him, and shouted to his brother not far away:
"Xiaosheng, you don't want to lose to me, you can't hang your face."
"Phew."
Yi Sheng wiped his poisonous dragon sword with his tattered sleeves, he was also surrounded by everyone, and in the face of Zhang Xiaohu's provocation, he responded loudly:
"Brothers, tell that Zhang Xiaohu, how many did Elder Ben kill?"
"Two hundred! Two hundred! ”
"! Elder Sheng has killed more than three hundred. ”
A group of black-clothed boxers responded in a chaotic voice, these Heluo warriors seemed to have inherited the heroic spirit of right and wrong village, and they were not cowardly in their hearts when they tried their best to fight.
There is such a thing as momentum, which is indescribable and unclear.
But it's like wildfire, and once it happens, it's not so easy to extinguish.
"Sometimes I really envy them."
On the other side of the battle array, Xiao Lingsu, the eldest disciple of the Jade Emperor Palace, who was carrying a sword, said to the junior brothers and sisters around him while eating berries:
"Everything in our Jade Palace is good, but there are too many rules and precepts, and occasionally I feel that I can't be free."
"But we're better than the Heluo Gang."
A tall junior brother said unconvinced:
"Just the senior brother fought three battles today, and there are no less than five hundred ghosts to be destroyed, and when today's battle ends, the name of the senior brother's 'ghost absolute' will inevitably spread all over the world.
What Lu Guizang, what Dongfang strategy, those are all famous for killing wicked people, how can there be a senior brother who kills ghosts and evil spirits? ”
"Haha, junior brother just can talk, I like to listen."
Xiao Lingsu laughed, and the five short-lived big disciples threw out the fruit core in their hands, and in the explosion, mixed with aura, they destroyed a sneaky ghost thing on the spot.
He said with ease:
"The war is about to start, junior brother might as well say more nice words, and let me wait for the Jade Emperor Palace martial artists to be more excited, regenerate their strength, and go to slaughter demons and protect all living beings in the world."
"Hahahaha"
These words caused a group of Jade Palace warriors to laugh, and they were nervous before the battle, and the gloom in their hearts was also dispelled.
In front of him, the rolling ghosts were all hideous and brutal, entangled in the yin wind, and soared into the sky, causing the black clouds in the sky to be stirred up, and the Japanese warriors on horseback led in the center, just like the ghost soldiers of Huangquan, swept over.
And they were facing a red-armored cavalry that attacked like arrows.
No one shouted, no one spoke, just a silent rush, like a silent stubborn rock hitting the tide.
Indestructible!
"Kill!"
Li Baoguo held a spear in his hand, and his divine martial arts stimulated, so that the spear blade brought up several zhang of spear, swept forward, and destroyed all kinds of ghosts, and the low sound of killing rolled like thunder.
He was the first to hit the black tide in front of him.
Then there were thousands of red-armored cavalry, fit-and-match, and the churning, all-engulfing black tide seemed to crash into the embankment, and was blocked by death, not only could not advance an inch, but was torn apart by the fierce warriors, like sharp knives.
The Heluo warriors in the rear, along with Zhang Xiaohu and Yi Sheng, came out of the cage like a brave tiger, and smashed on the flanks on the ghost pawns.
Bah!
Lao Tzu is not even afraid of brave and living people, but are you afraid of a group of dead people?
"It's time for us to go."
Seeing the enemy in front, the bandit army as the middle of the battle also started to charge, Xiao Lingsu was a hero of the rivers and lakes, and he also moved his body to stand up, and the divine martial arts were stimulated.
Between the shattered ground, these Jade Emperor Palace warriors, one by one, were entangled in the wind, swept up in place, smashed down like meteors, and smashed into the ghost pawn array with a whistling wind.
They won't lose, at least not today!
"Boom"
As soon as the fierce battle on the front line began, there were visions in vain.
Behind the camp, there was a loud roar, which caused the ghost scholar who was leading the army forward to turn back suddenly on the war horse, and the next moment, he saw that the Xuanmen Taoist technique was used to form a Liuding Liujia formation to protect the camp and block the faint halo of ghosts.
Like a candle flame in the wind, it goes out quickly.
"Not good!"
The ghost scholar's face changed drastically under the mask.
The ghosts attacked the camp in rear, and if the large camp was occupied, the morale that had been accumulated after three hard battles would inevitably collapse.
Once the morale of the army is lost, the battle is in danger.
"Little Iron!"
He turned his head to the black king of the war horse beside him, and Xiao Tie, who was about to fight, shouted loudly:
"There is a change in the camp, go quickly!"
Xiao Tie also knew that the situation was dangerous, so he immediately turned around the war horse and galloped towards the camp, waiting for the war horse to take a step, but was stopped by Wu Shifeng.
"If you can't save it, you will save yourself and take Fan Qingqing and the others away."
The ghost scholar whispered.
"Not necessarily."
The black-armored swordsman carried Juque, alone, and rushed to the camp, and he said in a low tone:
"Big brother hasn't come yet, we haven't lost yet."
"Don't think about anything else, just fight to the death."
