Chapter 161: The First Taste of the Power of the Army
"Forget everything you've seen, get out. Walking in front of the child, Wu Ming's knife still did not swing, was sheathed, turned to leave, although he knew the truth of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, but this child was indeed too young, should not become a victim of the adult's war.
Back to Yun Yazi's side, the other party didn't say much, just continued to walk forward, the child had already stepped on horseback, quickly fled, and when the other party's figure completely disappeared in their eyes, Yun Yazi said: "You should kill him." ”
"He's just a kid, he's already scared stupid just now, and he shouldn't dare to betray us. ”
"Let's keep walking, will we betray us, there will be results soon. ”
The two of them walked forward, but in an hour's time, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and not just one or two, but a large group, the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound of metal clashing, proved that it was not an ordinary person, but an army.
Yun Yazi turned his head to look at Wu Ming, shook his head lightly and said: "Weishi originally wanted to accompany you for a while longer, it seems that we need to be separated here, if the time comes, Weishi will come back to pick you up, otherwise, you should have to go back by yourself, pay attention to safety along the way, if you encounter danger, your senior brother and they can't go deep into the Moshang grassland to save you." ”
"Don't worry, Master, I'll take care of myself. ”
"Soldiers are different from cultivators, their combined combat effectiveness will be far higher than their own strength, even if they are many lower realms, together, they can also defeat powerful cultivators, you are good at yourself. Yun Yazi stepped on the void and left, and it just so happened that the group of soldiers also appeared in his field of vision.
The desolate soldiers are different from the imperial soldiers, the imperial soldiers wear heavy armor, and even their faces are protected by visors, leaving only the position of the two eyes, while the desolate soldiers serve mainly in animal skins, and most of the soldiers can also have rattan armor, after all, there is a lack of materials on the grassland, and there are not so many metallurgical resources.
This is also beneficial, there is less armor on their bodies, their actions are more convenient and fast, the impact of the cavalry is smaller, the speed is much faster, and they can better sneak attack and transfer, such soldiers, although fragile but extremely difficult.
The other party has a team of cavalry, about a hundred people, the cultivation is uneven, all under the Linghai realm, Yun Yazi has been instructed again and again, he does not dare to take it lightly, so he did not take the lead in making a move, waiting to see what the other party wants to do.
The leader of the cavalry drew the scimitar at his waist, and the other cavalry also pulled out the scimitar, and then, I don't know what the leader shouted, a whole group of cavalry rushed over, and it was only at this time that Wu Ming knew why his master had been telling him to be careful, just the cavalry of a hundred people, when charging, it was like turning into a whole, a giant beast charging forward.
On the power of this rush, Wu Ming understood that he was not an opponent, if he was hit by this cavalry frontal charge, he estimated that he would either be killed or injured, and he immediately decided, he stepped into the air, although the cavalry was powerful, but there was a fatal shortcoming, that is, the soldiers who had not arrived congenitally could not fly, as long as they flew by themselves, the other party had no way to take themselves.
However, before he could laugh, one arrow after another flew from a distance, dense, countless, although the power of it was not very large, he only needed to cover his body with spiritual power to resist, but, with more and more of them, there were already some loopholes to cut his clothes.
Being so embarrassed by such a group of monks who were not congenital, Wu Ming also had some anger in his heart, so he simply unfolded the Xuanwu shield and rushed towards the direction where the arrows were flying, and not far away, he saw that group of archers, about fifty or so, a group of ten people took turns shooting arrows, so many arrows appeared, and Wu Ming cared not only about this style In addition to the archers, there was actually a group of soldiers with shields and spears on their periphery.
If you attack this group of archers, then you will inevitably be blocked by this group of shield spearmen, once they are entangled, there is no time to retreat, and the cavalry behind will make a comeback, besides, that group of archers does not seem to have only longbows, but also scimitars at their waists, so it seems that it is really difficult to kill them.
Since this is the case, then they can only be solved remotely, it just so happens that after the Holy Tu has started, he has not used it, thinking of this, the long sword Holy Tu has already arrived in his hands, the sword has a sheath, and blood can be seen when it is unsheathed.
In an instant, the long sword was unsheathed and returned to the sheath, and the ink line that crossed the heavens and the earth quickly moved forward, and the general who led the troops had already seen the ink line, and calmly gestured to the soldiers, and the soldiers under his command immediately began to spread out on both sides, neatly aligned, and the ink line only killed five or six people in front of him, and then fell to the ground.
And after the transfer was completed, the archers started shooting again for the first time, leaving no time for Wu Ming at all, and those contradictory soldiers were also the first to protect the archers behind him, and the sound of horses' hooves in the distance had already sounded, he really wanted to directly use the Gathering Spirit Starburst to solve this group of guys, but the accumulation process of the Gathering Spirit Starburst was too obvious, and with the other party's appearance, it was estimated that he would not be connected head-on.
This is the Moshang grassland, if he can't fight for a long time, the other party's reinforcements will follow, and then he will not be able to leave, although he has a fire in his heart, but there is no way, put on the night demon cloak, quickly disappeared in front of the eyes of this group of soldiers, and fled in the direction that Yun Yazi pointed to him.
In the distance, Wu Ming's body fell to the ground, the night demon cloak can increase speed, and it can also be invisible under high-speed movement, but this spiritual power consumption is too great, the faster the speed, the higher the cultivation, the higher the spiritual power consumed, which is why until now, he rarely uses this artifact.
Looking around, there are dozens of tents in the distance, because of the climate and environment on the grassland, the habit of nomadism has been cultivated, and the cattle are grazing in different places in each season, and the tent is easy to carry and simple and convenient to live in has become a must-have, and there are not many tents not far from Wu Ming.
And there is a particularly large tent in it, which is surrounded in the middle, usually called the middle tent of the nomadic family, if it is called the middle tent in the army, it is the place where the big people live, it seems that this is either a large nomadic family, or a military camp.
It's just that there are no people in and out of the tent at this time, he can't judge what the situation is inside, the group of soldiers just now gave him a little deep impression, which leads to his recklessness now, although the desolate people look the same as the people of the empire, but the clothes are very different, if they appear, it is estimated that they will be discovered soon.
He didn't understand why his master threw himself into this Moshang grassland, he was like a headless fly, surrounded by enemies, what he came here for, and what kind of promotion could he get here?
Shrugging his shoulders slightly, the little crow spread his wings and flew up, what happened just now, so that he didn't dare to be careless, the little crow can better observe the situation in the air, and a small bird will not attract much attention, if the divine sense is released, it will be found immediately when it encounters a powerful person, and it is better to rely on his eyes at this time.
It just so happened that the little crow had double eyes, and his eyesight was surprisingly good, it was best to use it to investigate, the little crow flew slowly to the sky above the tent, and the scene in its eyes directly made Wu Ming can't believe it, in the middle of dozens of tents, there are countless corpses lying horizontally, all of them look like they have just died, which makes him a little curious, the war between the desolate people and the empire is about to break out, how can he still be killed with hundreds of desolate people to this point?
He instructed the little crow to go around in the tent, and there was indeed no living person, so he quickened his pace and ran outside the tent, just approaching, a strong bloody smell came to his face and was disgusting, but there was no rancid smell, the blood on the ground was still flowing, it seemed that this time the person had indeed just died.
Moreover, after Wu Ming arrived here, he was sure that this was a military camp, and the rattan armor on the dead soldiers had been taken, so it was impossible to confirm it outside.
Moreover, this is not just an ordinary military camp, it should be the military camp of a certain dignitary, at this time, Wu Ming is not going deep into the Moshang grassland, it should not be possible to meet such a good military camp here, it just so happens that all the people in this military camp have been killed, which is even more strange.
Walking in the center of the corpses, Wu Ming carefully checked every detail, his master may have asked him to come to see this, as for the reason, he still has to find it himself, some of these soldiers are still eating, some are still resting, when the battle began, many people had not yet taken their weapons, so they should have been attacked suddenly.
In this way, as long as all the rattan armor, scimitars, etc. in the tent were not damaged, they were all taken away, and even the horses were taken away, which made Wu Ming suspect that the empire's mind sank, and there was something to say about the weapons and so on, but the soldiers of the empire would definitely not want the rattan armor, and as for the cultivators, these things were even more useless, so in this way, this group of desolate soldiers was actually killed by the desolate soldiers?
The more Wu Ming looked, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he could only go into the tent to see what was going on, and the soldiers in the tent died more miserably, and the soldiers outside were defenseless and basically killed with a knife, while the soldiers in the tent had time to take weapons, so they were injured more, and some generals also died in the tent.
