on the savannah.
After a journey of 1,700 miles, the Hedong Army returned with prisoners. Yanran Mountain, which had just been silent for twenty days, boiled again.
All the caves were once again filled with the sick and wounded.
The snow outside had stopped, but it was getting colder. Even Zhu Biao, who does not protect his body with internal force, also feels that the north wind is really like an ice knife.
Snow doesn't get cold, and it's the same here. Of course, the word 'cold' is relative. The cold wind was howling, whether it was snow or snow, the sky on the prairie was cold to the bone.
The snow was more than a foot thick, and it didn't reach the calf when you stepped on it. It was very laborious for the carriage to travel in such snow, and the speed was greatly affected. But the time has entered March, March, that is, on the prairie with a long cold and harsh winter, it is also time for the green grass to spit out new and winter to spring. The weather below will not be cold anymore, as soon as the snow melts, spring will officially arrive.
For the next half of the month, the thawing permafrost and melting snow will turn the meadows into a quagmire. When you step on it, it becomes mud if it doesn't reach your ankle. So Zhu Biao just wanted to rest and recuperate in Yanran Mountain, and there was no time to waste, he had to lead the army back to Hedong before the grassland thawed.
"Crunch, squeak......"
"Crunch, squeak......"
Yanran Mountain has only been lively for two days. The traffic departed, and the mountains returned to silence. There is no Hu Qi here, haunting the surrounding area, no matter how far away, they are eager to avoid Zhu Biao.
========= dividing line ================
Yinshan narrow road.
"How's it going?" Gao Xie looked at the open place on the top of the mountain, and the group of craftsmen and soldiers who were hurrying to do the work, turned to his lieutenant and asked.
"General, thirteen iron block chassis have been built, and about half of them will be finished tonight." The lieutenant looked at the busy team of craftsmen with an embarrassed face, and said to Gao Xie with palpitations, "I've heard the name of this thing for a long time, but it's the first time I've really seen it." It's too vicious, if you hit it. Even the top masters will not leave a corpse. ”
It weighs thousands of pounds, and then rushes down from the bottom of the mountain, pressing a blood stain, and whoever gets it dies.
Gao Xie didn't say anything, and looked up at the chassis of a vehicle not far away, which was six or seven feet wide and more than a foot long, and the bearings were all iron rods.
Strong and tough pear wood, iron riveting. A body is heavy and sturdy. There are hobs on the wheel shafts and wheels, a row of knife walls are inserted in front of the car, and the weight is added to the compartment, which is really invincible to the masters.
"Iron pulley, it's up to you to decide whether you can take the lead or not!" Gao Xie muttered to himself in his heart. Iron block under construction on these hills. It is a weapon for a good start in the First World War in Japan.
The Izumo Pass was blocked, and if Hu Qi wanted to cross the Yin Mountain, he had to take other trails. In fact, the only way for the more than 20,000 Hu riders in the south of Yinshan to return to their 'hometown' is on those Yinshan trails. In the east, at the junction of the Northern Han Dynasty and the Chen State, excluding the dangers of mountains and rivers, the Central Plains coalition army of more than 100,000 pillows and waiting for the end could not be broken through by more than 20,000 Hu cavalry. They simply could not jump from the Northern Han to Chendi and then to the surrendered city.
Hugh looked at the wide area at the entrance to the narrow passage. That was only the beginning of the suffering on the road of the Hu Cavalry Army. From wide to narrow, this crossing is less than ten miles south of Gao Xie's camp.
Suddenly, the north-south width changed from three or four miles to about 100 zhang. Further north, the road is full of rockfalls, and the width will gradually narrow, until it reaches less than ten zhang.
With only 5,000 step armor in his hand, Gao Xie didn't expect to leave all of them behind. But peel off a layer of his skin, and kill at least two or three percent of his troops. That's what he thought.
This is the main purpose of Gao Xie's operation, the military order he got from the Nahu camp. He has a considerable grasp of success.
The next day, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in front of the narrow road.
There was no doubt about him, and more than 25,000 Hu rode horses into the narrow road. They didn't expect the Han army to ambush them at all.
Hudu, Qiulin, and Xubu all the remaining eagle archers were left outside, to guard against the attack of the Hedong Army, and some of the red-robed mages who followed the army did not find anything wrong in the narrow passage.
More than 25,000 Hu cavalry walked unsuspectingly towards the north of Yinshan Mountain.
"It's time for them to die-"
Gao Xie, who got the reward, smiled hideously.
Countless Hu cavalry searched under the mountain, but the speed was not a little slower than that of galloping horses on the grassland. And the south side of the hill is full of black and oppressive war horses. All I heard was the neighing of horses.
Those with at least two horses are ridden, and there are more horses. Because the speed of the front suddenly stopped, the follow-up people and horses accumulated.
One thousand, two thousand, three thousand...... Eight thousand, nine thousand, ten thousand......
Like crossing the river, a group of cavalry shouted and left. I hadn't stopped for an hour, and half of the men had passed.
On the hill, the ambush soldiers still ignored it. The leading military Sima is not in a hurry at all, he is the first hurdle here, there is nothing to hurry. Besides, he has few soldiers and weak strength, so he can't eat even if he stops too much. You have to do everything you can, and the goal of the military Sima is just to scrape off a layer of skin from Hu Qi's tail.
……
Izumo Exit Kitajo.
After a night of attacking, Hu Qi took a break the next day. The corpses chased Lan Du and killed again.
The roar of the landslide and the cracking, accompanied by the cover of cavalry shooting, the Hu soldiers, who had already been in strict formation, pushed their weapons and swarmed towards the city again.
Patches of black and brown, patches of human heads. Like wild horses on the ground, the flood water that burst the levee surged towards the northern city. The sun shone on Hu Bing's hideous face, and now everyone here, not only them but also the soldiers of the Hedong Army at the head of the city, all of them had only endless killing opportunities left in their eyes.
Roar! ………… Roar!!!
Almost as soon as the first wave of Hu soldiers rushed to the front of the city, the rear of the Hu cavalry roared like a wolf again. Another thousand horsemen rushed towards the fierce battle of attack and defense, and they would dismount a hundred paces in front of the city, and then take over the front army, which had suffered many casualties, and continued the attack.
Before Hu rode in front of the formation, the corpse and Lan Du looked back leisurely, staring at the city with cold eyes, and a hideous sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Li Panlong's usually gentle and even somewhat oily face is now solemn and solemn, with sharp edges and corners. A pair of eyes were as bright as stars, and their eyes were full of cold and murder. At a glance, you can feel like you are in a field of ice and snow, endless cold silence, endless abyss.
In the deafening shouts of killing, two thousand Hu soldiers swarmed in. From the top of the city, it looks like a black oppressive ant, crowded to the foot of the tattered city wall of the northern city.
Boom, boom, boom
It was the sound of ladders on the wall, and dozens of ladders were erected almost simultaneously. Then he leaned heavily against the head of the wall. The first two inverted iron hooks on the ladder firmly grabbed the inner wall of the city wall, although the ladder car used by Hu Bing was the easiest to pedal the ladder, but with this trick, it was difficult for the defenders of the city to retreat the ladder. All they could use was to use their axes to cut down the barbed wooden frame at the top of the ladder.
At the same time, dozens of Hu soldiers with thick shields on their heads and heavy armor also escorted a crashing car to press over. When the sharp and heavy crash of the wood hit the crumbling walls again and again, a violent roar would be heard inside and outside the city gates.
Li Panlong's raised right arm swung forward. A thunderous roar resounded through the city: "Brothers, kill thieves—"
Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill -
More than a thousand Hedong troops in the city roared hoarsely, and hundreds of crossbowmen densely rained down the cold arrow rain on the heads of the Hu soldiers under the city.
As the Hu soldiers approached, the Hu cavalry, who had more than 2,000 horsemen in front of the city, finally stopped a rain of arrows in the hands of Fa Zhi. Under the city walls were crowded with Hu soldiers, and the crossbowmen guarding the towers did not even need to aim at all, but only aimed their bows and arrows at the bottom and shot an arrow casually. Ten of the ** can hit the enemy soldiers.
"Ahh
"Uh-"
The desolate howls sounded endlessly, and the Hu soldiers who were hit by arrows one by one in the city, and the sergeants who fell down one by one on the ladder, the painful wails resounded in the sky over the entire northern city.
But Hu Bing's offensive did not stop because of this, and the belief of the corpse in Landu was stronger than steel. Hu Bing has attacked the city too many times before, and the Hu soldiers in front will not stop, and now Hu soldiers will not stop. Dozens of ladders were soon filled with fearless Hu soldiers again, and these warriors on horseback dismounted. The brave character has not changed, but the combat power is really ...... There's so much to subtract. Visible to the naked eye!
Hu Bing's mouth is sharp, and he climbs up with his hands and feet. There are very few people who can hold a shield with one hand and climb the ladder with the other hand to fly up. Therefore, the lethality of the city's bow and crossbow is quite good.
On the top of the city.
From the first moment of the Hu soldiers, the swordsmen and spearmen, sword and card players of the Hedong Army defending the city, and so on. As soon as the melee hand-to-hand class was concerned, they already felt that they were standing in front of the battlements. Crossbowmen try their best to shoot downwards to kill the enemy, while pikemen and broadsword men cooperate with short-handed soldiers such as sword players and axemen.
Li Panlong's military orders were issued in an orderly manner, although there were only more than 1,000 Hedong troops at the head of Beicheng. But they also have their own tacit understanding to form a team from near and far, and their skillful cooperation has made many Hu soldiers who have worked hard to climb to the top of the city have not yet had time to take a look at the situation at the head of the city, and even before they have time to hand over the sharp blade in their mouths, they have already drunk blood and returned to the west.
Knife lights flew and shone at the head of the city, and spears were stabbed in the air at the head of the city.
Puff puff -
The strong axe hand hurriedly swung the sharp axe in his hand, slashing the place where the ladder hung the barb one after another, and each undulation brought up bursts of sawdust.
"Ahh
These ladders usually have two results, one is that all the sergeants of the Hedong Army work together and push them to the ladder smoothly, so if you are lucky, the ladder car below is only a distance away from the city, and you can continue to use it if you push it forward; The second is that the Hedong Army is 'not strong', and after pushing the ladder away for a few feet, it is 'powerless' to continue, and at that time it can only collect its guns at the same time. The ladder car was unloaded after leaning back at an angle of twenty or thirty degrees, and the heavy ladder body would be smashed forward, and the ladder car body would not have a problem, but the ladder on the top of the car smashed heavily on the ladder on the city wall.
The final result was not that a group of Hu soldiers fell down from the ladder like dumplings, and the huge anti-shock force was unbearable for ordinary people. It was the ladder that broke into two between a fall, and the Hu soldiers who climbed on it fell down like dumplings.
Every time there was a chorus of shouts from the city, a ladder truck would be unlucky.
There were five or six less, one or twenty more, and the Hu soldiers who were climbing on the ladder fell down from mid-air one by one, and they were seriously injured if they were not killed. It is also good to be planted to death, but the poor ones are those who are seriously injured but have not lost their breath for a while, and the terrible screams come from their mouths. That sense of desolation and despair penetrates the heart and lungs more than the cries of others.
"Whew-"
A crazy shout came from the city, Li Panlong carefully stretched out his head to take a look, but there were dozens of Hu soldiers hugging a city crashing car to the city. The soldiers on the cart were howling frantically, venting the excitement in their hearts.
The crash car was heavy to death, but it was fast enough compared to the few shafts that were still behind the hit. Within a quarter of an hour of the start of the war, three crashing vehicles had reached their posts. He is about to work hard for his 'mission'.
"Fire oil--fire oil-" Li Panlong shouted loudly, and he picked up a big stone from the city and threw it down.
After several days of shooting, and then the corpse chased Lan Du let the master climb the mountain, throwing stones downwards and smashing some of them, and the thunderbolt in the northern city was already worn out.
The Hedong Army was short of oil, and the reserves in Beicheng had been used up to six or seven percent.
There were so many stones and bullets thrown out by the thunderbolt before, and many of the stones and bullets were reprocessed. Not only the stones and the stone bullets themselves, but also the ones that are sprinkled with enough oil, and then wrapped around them with some hemp rope to ignite a little fire, and when they are shot, they all turn into fire bombs.
Therefore, the fuel consumption is very high. Originally, I looked at a lot of fire oil, but within a few days, only a third of it was left.
"Knock-knock-knock-" Another crash hit the wall hard. Hu Bing, who operated the crashing car, would definitely be disturbed by the Hedong Army on the city gate, but even so, Li Panlong could feel the city wall under his feet shaking more and more violently.
"Damn it......" he cursed in his heart, and then shouted, "Stone, smash me hard." What about kerosene? Keep going down—"
A few clusters of sparks hit the city car in the middle, but I saw a sudden burst of flames under the city gate. Dozens of steps outside the city gate were illuminated as bright as day, and several Hu soldiers who were affected by the pond fish were swallowed by the rolling flames in an instant.
Hu Bing, who was still alive for a while, kept rolling and struggling in the sea of fire. The incessant and terrifying howls were terrifying to hear. There were even two Hu soldiers covered in fire with raging flames who directly crashed into the group of Hu soldiers on the side, and then were hacked to death by their own people with two knives.
Jars of fire oil continued to fall down the city, and dozens of rockets fell from the city towers, and the fire oil splashed all over the ground burned. The flames soon engulfed hundreds of Hu soldiers and more than a dozen ladders, and in the scorching flames, the Hu soldiers who had not lost their breath were wailing bitterly. Struggling desperately, the slightest sound was transmitted with great clarity.
Before Hu cavalry formed a formation, the corners of the corpse Landu's mouth twitched violently, for those soldiers who died. But when his gaze swept over the dozen or so ladder carts to the three crashing carts that were also burning with fire but never stopping. The deep starry eyes are like a flame exploding!
A fire can burn down a ladder truck, but it can't burn a crash car lightly, and the thick layer of silt covering the top is enough to make the crash car calm in the fire.
========== dividing line ================
"Bell, bell, bell......"
In the big tent, Zhu Biao continued to study his capture in the Battle of Dragon City. These extraterrestrial meteorites with a texture of 99 ...... Cause.
"Is it something like the Holy Fire Order?" With a texture of 99 points, I can't imagine how Hu Ren was cast in the first place.
On one side is engraved with dense ghost texts, and on the other side is engraved with portraits......
"Sixth brother-" Zhu Zhong and Zhu Tong strode into the tent. But what is strange is that both of them carry a scimitar at their waists.
"How's the knife practice? Can it be integrated into the "Blood Knife Sutra"? ”
"Melt a ghost, it's a hundred and eight thousand miles." Zhu Zhong sat next to Zhu Biao, his face full of exhaustion.
Entering Dragon City, the gains in honor, materials, and prisoners are one thing, and the gains in martial arts are another. One side can't be shown to the public!
Zhu Biao now has five meteorite tokens and three meteorite iron scrolls in his hands, a Fang Ding, and seventeen statues of different materials and shapes, and each Fang Token, Iron Scroll, Fang Ding and statues all record one or more martial arts, and they are all at the level of peerless miraculous skills.
Although the words engraved on the tokens, iron scrolls, Fang Ding, and several statues were all ghost Fang scripts that he did not recognize, this confirmed their preciousness from one side.
Zhu Zhong and Zhu Tong's current strength is stuck at the 89 mark, he has the top internal strength heart method, and the peerless external skill knife method, it can be said that it is not a problem to enter the 90th level in the future. The only thing they lack now is the precipitation of time.
However, what they lack most is the time to precipitate, and they, Zhu Jia, do not have that time for precipitation and accumulation.
If they want to break through quickly, of course Zhu Biao can help them, and one pill is enough. However, the future of Zhu Zhong and Zhu Tong is not the same as Yuan Tong and Yan Qing, who are masters who have been raised by pulling seedlings, and they have always relied on their own understanding to open the neck bottle, and their future is the innate master. That's how Zhu Biao expects them.
Therefore, whether it was 69 to 70 or 79 to 80, Zhu Biao did not reach out to help. Zhu Zhong and Zhu Tong relied on their own comprehension to break through, and this time Zhu Biao also did not stretch out his hand. And these two people who want to break through as much as possible have started the idea of 'touching the bypass' by themselves.
"Effect...... It doesn't seem to work......"
"The thing in the world is perseverance. You continue to make this choice, so keep it at that. Unless you will give up yourselves-" (To be continued)
