Chapter 44: The Mountains and Rivers Are Exhausted

In Presti City, next to the Hall of the Stars, Master Soraka's Priest's Courtyard, which has now been converted into a rehabilitation home, where some patients with serious injuries awaiting treatment or who need further treatment are all recuperating, as is the recuperating Akali. Before he was about to lead the troops to set off, Chen Yin quietly avoided several monks and sacrifices on duty, sneaked in here and found the room where Akali was recuperating, looking at Akali whose face had recovered a little ruddy, and who was sleeping with his eyes closed, Chen Yin's heart was surging with sour feelings and emotion, and the past of the two of them was also echoing in his mind, thinking of these common experiences with Akali, especially the adventure of Anapos in the deep sea, Chen Yin couldn't help but touch his lips, But then another heroic short-haired woman popped up in my mind, the woman who held a stabbing sword and dared to do things, the sword in the chest and the parting kiss are estimated to be unforgettable in this life.

Chen Yin gently touched his fingers, and after thinking for a moment, he took off the ring of time and space from his ring finger, the ring that the sword saint gave him can be said to be a priceless treasure, Chen Yin rubbed the pattern on it with his hand, and for some reason the figure of another woman appeared in his heart, the port seven years ago, two young boys and girls snuggled together and looked at the sea, she quietly listened to him tell some fairy tales that belonged to his world, and finally the two people hooked their fingers and made a vow to pull the hook, Chen Yin's heart couldn't help but hurt.

"I have always been young and limited, and it is easy to lose my soul when I am idle. The wine feast and singing are frequent, and the mountains and rivers are full of empty thoughts. The falling flowers and wind and rain hurt the spring even more, so it is better to take pity on the people in front of you. "What did Yan Shu, who wrote "Huanxi Sha", experience? Why is the mood so similar to me, forget it, all marriages may end after today. Chen Yin thought silently, pinched the time ring in his hand again, and gently put it on the middle finger of Akali's right hand.

Presti City, a suburb of the North Side......

More than 40,000 Noxian soldiers were divided into three formations, center, and outside, and surrounded an Ionian officer and soldier with only 500 people left in a circle. The innermost Noxian soldiers are dominated by halberders, spearmen, and sword and shield hands, with halberders in charge of hooking and pulling; The pikemen are responsible for stabbing and picking; The sword and shield bearers on both sides were first responsible for fending off the onrushing Ionian soldiers, and secondly, the soldiers who pulled the halberd hook over and dodged the spear stabbing to mend the sword. The Noxian soldiers in the middle circle are mainly crossbowman troops, and whenever the Ionian soldiers attack a weak point in the inner circle with all their might, the crossbowman troops will quickly flat-end crossbows, and carry out covering flat fire in the gap between the Noxian halberders, pikemen and sword and shield men in the inner circle, and the presence of crossbowmen is the real culprit who caused a large number of casualties in this Ionian army. The outermost encirclement is the armor-covered heavy infantry and the outermost archers, a combination to prevent the sudden arrival of new reinforcements, which can be used to attack from a distance and defend when approaching, while the center heavy infantry can also protect vulnerable crossbowmen and archers.

Originally, the formation of this Noxian pursuer was heavy infantry in front, crossbowmen and archers in the back, halberdiers and pikemen in the center, and sword and shield men on either side of halberders and pikemen. But in one day's fighting, Chen Yin broke through the siege of the heavy infantry four times, entered the crowd of crossbowmen, and hunted nearly a thousand crossbowmen. The commander of this unit changed the formation little by little according to Chen Yin's attack habits and attack timing, until it was changed to the current situation, and then the Noxian army launched a massacre-like attack against the Ionian infantry army, if it were not for Chen Yin's support in the formation, this Ionian army would have been wiped out a few hours ago.

Chen Yin, who deliberately changed into a white dress before sending out the army, was already embarrassed at the moment, his white clothes were covered with gray yellow of dust and purple-brown blood clots after drying, and the tips of his flowing hair had been coagulated into locks of sweat and blood into locks of hard braids. The original resolute and handsome face was replaced by a hint of exhaustion. Since the moment when Chen Yin rushed thousands of miles to Presti, counting today's battle, he has been fighting fiercely for two days and two nights, and his will and spirit are close to the limit. No matter how strong a person's combat power is, it also needs equal physical and mental strength to support it, which is why there are so many well-known heroes in the Valoran Continent, but I have never heard of a hero who can win a war with just one person, except for the ancient period (the master of the god of death Karthas).

Chen Yin no longer has enough thoughts and spirit to calculate how many Noxian soldiers he has killed, at the beginning he can also support the defensive circle of the Ionian sergeants, where is breached, he can still flash the past to support as soon as possible, now he is already at the end of the crossbow, just relying on his body instinct to dodge some swords, guns and halberds, and harvest those Noxian soldiers who are greedy for merit and risk approaching him. Gradually, there were fewer and fewer Ionian soldiers around him, and more and more weapons appeared around him, and the number of weapons attacking him increased, and the space he could free up became smaller and smaller...... Until, for a moment, the weapons around him stopped for a moment.

Looking down from the sky, you can clearly see that on the empty land, only Chen Yin is left alone standing alone in the dense black tide, as if a drop of white waves is about to disappear in an instant, and those black tides are a group of Noxian soldiers covered in black armor, around Chen Yin, lying in a ring is the corpse of Ionian soldiers, these soldiers, even in the end, want to use their bodies to defend this warrior who is fighting for their Ionian freedom, In order to create a chance for him to escape, he did not hesitate to use his body as a shield, and at the last moment of his life to resist the crossbow arrows that might hurt Chen Yin.

Suddenly, Chen Yin, who felt that his surroundings were empty, slowly wiped away a trace of blood from the corners of his eyes, looked back at the surroundings, and instantly understood what had just happened, at the last moment, hundreds of Ionian soldiers surrounded him, using their bodies to block the countless crossbow arrows shot from all sides, and at the moment of falling, like a blooming blood-colored flower, scattered around him in the shape of petals. In this day, there are so many people who have died, so many that Chen Yin has lost even his sad heart at the moment, leaving only a deep sense of exhaustion and powerlessness, this is war, war between people, war between countries, there is no right or wrong in this, the strong, to expand, the weak, to be beaten, the real right to speak and the truth can only be in the hands of the victor and the person who writes history. Perhaps, a thousand years later, if Noxus really unified the entire Valoran continent, this war of rebellion for freedom in Ionia will be crowned by some historians as a small group of people who do not know how to advance and retreat, do not know how to make trade-offs, and do not consider the united front, and this battle will also become a war of resistance set off for their own selfishness. It's just that I just like to be one of those small group of people, and if I die, I'm afraid of the ball, so I thought of this.

"Haha, hahaha, hahahaha!!" Chen Yin suddenly laughed wildly, and the low-hanging Sword of the Ruined King in his hand was slowly raised again, this abnormal behavior also made the group of Noxian soldiers besieging him a little nervous, and the weapons in his hands were held tighter.

At this time, a gap suddenly opened in the neat Noxian army formation on the periphery, and a senior Noxian general wearing a horned helmet and a huge scar on his face led six or seven followers into the edge of the encirclement.

"I've seen your portrait. You are Chen Yin, a student at the War College, known as the most outstanding genius student of this generation of War College. The Scarface General said slowly. In such a desperate situation, you can still laugh out loud like this, which is a bit of a courage. However, don't think about escaping from this place anymore, if you are obediently captured, I can guarantee that you will be returned to our Noxus safely, and at the same time, you will be judged by our military department......"

Chen Yin raised his eyebrows slightly, and after grinning at the corner of his mouth, he asked, "If, my answer is no?" ”

General Scarface looked directly at Chen Yin, and said forcefully word by word, "Then, we will hang your corpse on the opposite side of Mogro Pass and show it to you at the War College!" Let them take a good look and understand what it means to advance and retreat. ”

At this moment, there was an angry shout in the sky, "Fuck your fart!!" If you have the ability, you can hang one for me to see!! I'd love to see who had the audacity to turn my Jax's apprentice into a corpse and hang it outside the gates of the War College!! ”

A purple figure and a red cloud instantly burst into the inner circle of the encirclement like a visitor from outside the sky, and one dodged and landed in front of the scar-faced general and Chen Yin. Behind this man were more than a dozen Noxian generals chasing after him, including the two commanders of the heavy infantry and the crossbowmen.

"You...... You, you're ......" The moment Scarface saw Jax, his finger at the other party trembled, and even the tone of his voice became stammered.

The moment Chen Yin saw the purple-robed figure, his tense body couldn't help but soften, and his eyes became moist, when the willpower that was holding his body faded instantly, his body involuntarily slowly tilted towards the ground, and before he fell, he forcefully inserted the sword in his hand into the soil beside him, and as a fulcrum, he supported his body hard, and he was about to fall, but he did not fall......

Jax, who came in a hurry, saw this scene, his eyes under the black armor flashed a little, but the words he said were still as hard as steel, "Bastard boy, he is still a little bit good, and he didn't lie on the ground and be embarrassed!! Big red, in the past. ”

At this time, Jax's mount, the Jujube Red Horse, approached him in an empathetic manner, stepped forward and gently licked the back of Chen Yin's hand. "What do you look at? Climb up by yourself, do you want Da Hong to squat down and carry you?? ”

Chen Yin grinned bitterly again and said, "Master, this time it's really, I can't move, the sword on the ground just now is the last bit of strength, and now I really lie down when I move!" ”

After hearing this, Jax didn't speak again, and directly stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yin's collar, threw him on the jujube red horse, ignoring Chen Yin's painful grinning expression, and then pulled out the purple sword of the ruined king and inserted it into the weapon slot next to the saddle. Then, as soon as Jax took the reins of his horse, he prepared to leave.

At this time, the scar-faced general who had threatened Chen Yin before finally came to his senses, and after he blocked Jax's face, he said, "Lord Jax! Even if this man is your student, but he has killed many of our Noxian generals and soldiers in the past few days, and you take him away like this, it's not appropriate!! Besides, I can't explain this to Lord Sain! Please leave this person here!! ”

"I, if I say, no???" Jax looked at the scar-faced general coldly, and replied with the same reply as his apprentice Chen Yin, sure enough, they are the same master and apprentice, and if there is a teacher, there will be an apprentice.

The scarface general at the top of this sentence trembled and his face darkened, as one of the pro-army generals of Lieutenant General Sain, in Scarface's heart, the so-called Noxus legend, five-star general or something, are just legends, he only recognizes the truly powerful people, and Sain, who has shown that powerful and irresistible power in front of him, is the commander he recognizes the most, therefore, every decision of Sain, whether right or wrong, he will resolutely implement it.

"Spearmen! Halberders! Sword and shield soldiers! Crossbowmen! Archers! Heavy infantry! All armies, prepared!! The Scarface general raised his right fist high and issued a military order for the whole army to be on standby and ready to attack at any time.

At this time, Nas and the others from the West Side troops who were chasing Jax walked to the side of the Scarface general and persuaded him.

"Old Scar, this is our five-star general in Noxus, our military soul, the god of war!" Lord Jax!! What are you doing here? Hurry up and stop!! ”

"Old Scar, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!!"

General Scarface swept around the crowd around him and said coldly, "This is the war and internal affairs of my Second Legion!" Ladies and gentlemen of the First Legion, are you too lenient? ”

"What do you say, old scar? The last battle on the border of Demacia, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's support, you would have fucking hung up! You're talking to me about this?! ”

"Old Scar, don't treat people to things. You'd better calm down on this matter. We're all here for your good. ”

"yes, old Scar, you should ask why Lord Jax is here, right? You're so impatient, it's going to be bad. ”

Jax was on the sidelines, quietly watching a group of people shouting, the clouds were light and breezy, and they didn't seem to be worried about their situation at all. Jax really wants to start killing now, so that this guy in front of him, who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, can feel the end of making his disciple so embarrassed and miserable.

At this time, a "newspaper ~~~ Chinese army urgent letter" from far to near!! The sound of the herald parted the quarrel, and Sayne's military order was finally delivered to the outskirts of the North City.
