Chapter 337: The Decisive Battle (11)

Kill!! ”

Chi Shengwei slashed down, and the sticky blood suddenly splashed his face, but he didn't have time to wipe it, so he kicked out a kick and kicked the enemy in front of him two steps away.

After fighting for most of the day, the long knife in his hand had already been curled, in fact, this was the fourth knife he had changed, but no matter how he changed it, the result was the same, the sharp waist knife quickly rolled under the friction between iron and flesh.

Now the long knife in his hand is no longer painful or itchy to cut at the enemy's body, as if the knife just now was clearly cut at the enemy's neck, under normal circumstances, he should be able to neatly take off a head, but in fact, it only left a small wound.

And the Southern Dynasty soldier who was cut and then kicked by him actually covered his wounds, staggered and stood up again, and several comrades-in-arms immediately dragged him to the rear and fled.

"Where to go?!"

Ji Shengwei roared, and was about to catch up with him.

But as soon as the voice came out, he realized that his voice had already burst out, and the voice at this time was weak and moaning, not to mention with such a power or two, it was difficult for people to hear clearly.

To make matters worse, his physical strength was severely overdrawn, his legs were as heavy as lead, and he had to wrestle with his body with every step he took.

After all, he is over half a hundred years old, and this dignified senior official has not been on the front line for nearly 20 years, and he has been able to fight until now thanks to the deep foundation he laid when he was young.

"The offensive can't be stopped, it's over when it stops......"

He silently recited these words, walked forward in a trance, and re-grasped the long knife in his hand.

"Be careful!"

At this moment, a concerned voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Chi Shengwei turned his head suddenly, only to see a few soldiers of the Silent Annihilation Army coming up from the flanks at some point, and two sharp spears stabbed him in the chest in unison.

He roared angrily, gritted his teeth and picked up the knife, and the waist knife turned in a circle in his hand, slamming one of the spears into the air, but under the severe loss of strength, this was already the limit of what he could do, and he was helpless against the other spear that stabbed in the chest.

"Is that the end of it......"

At this moment, a brief blank appeared in Ji Shengwei's mind.

"Dashuai!"

It was the voice of concern that pulled him back to reality, a young body collapsed into his arms, and the spear that should have pierced his heart pierced the young body in half.

Finally, he woke up a little from his trance, and only then did he realize that the person who fell in his arms was also the person Fang was reminding him to be careful, and it was his favorite personal guard, Duan Chen.

Duan Chen has been his personal guard since he joined the army at the age of fourteen, following him to the north and south, and has experienced more than ten battles of all sizes, and is three points closer than a real father and son.

"San'er!"

Chi Shengwei exclaimed in surprise and shouted Duan Chen's nickname.

Duan Chen leaned on Chi Shengwei's arms, his mouth was full of blood, and his palm tightly grasped Chi Shengwei's wrist and said, "The handsome man rushed...... Rushed too fast, but behind ...... There will always be our personal guard battalion behind ......"

As soon as Chi Shengwei looked up, he saw that the last few soldiers of the personal guard battalion and other men and horses had already swarmed up, chopping the silent sergeants who attacked them into several pieces.

But even so, Duan Chen's life could not be replaced.

Blood kept flowing out of the blood hole in his chest, as if it had flowed into Ji Shengwei's eye sockets, making his eyes red in an instant.

"San'er ......"

He hugged Duan Chen's body tightly, but he couldn't keep Duan Chen's weaker and weaker breath.

"Dashuai...... There are only a few of us left in the Tiger Guard, but as long as you are still there, the brothers will ...... At...... You...... Take care of ......"

Duan Chen said the last few words with difficulty, and finally swallowed his breath, and died with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"San'er!"

Chi Shengwei let out a low snort, but no sound came out of his throat.

"Hurry up, the enemy has retreated, and their return cannon is about to go off!"

Zhang Xiaoqi, the commander of the guards, rushed to Chi Shengwei's side and shouted, and without saying a word, he and another soldier picked him up and ran back, and there was a terrifying whistling sound in mid-air, and then countless barrels of fire and oil fell from the sky, and suddenly turned the real battlefield into a sea of fire.

Zhang Xiaoqi and the soldier dragged Chi Shengwei to a back slope, just to avoid the fire and rain, but the pungent smoke from the burning corpse choked the three of them with tears and coughed incessantly.

"Damn, this fire oil doesn't seem to cost money, and I don't know how much the barbarians of the Southern Dynasty have prepared."

Zhang Xiaoqi coughed and cursed in a low voice.

Another soldier said: "Yes, always return the artillery bombardment for a while, and then reorganize the forces to defend, and when we beat them back again, the return artillery will bombard for a while, and I can command the Silent Annihilation Army!" ”

Chi Shengwei glanced at the soldier, and saw that he was in his twenties, with a sturdy body, a dark complexion, and the appearance of a good soldier, but his face was very unfamiliar, and he couldn't help asking: "You are not my soldier of the right guard of the tiger, is it the border army of General Deng He?" ”

Without waiting for the soldier to speak, Zhang Xiaoqi said: "You don't know if you rushed too fast, General Deng He's 30,000 border army has collapsed, and now the main force attacking the valley defense line has been replaced by the elite of Long Xiangwei. ”

"Long Xiangwei?!"

Chi Shengwei exclaimed: "Could it be that the reinforcements are actually the southeast army led by General Liu?" ”

The soldier nodded and said: "Qi Yu Chi Shuai, you are right, General Liu led more than 100,000 troops to rush to the rescue, and the last general is Zhao Xiaoman, the flag officer of the forward battalion of Zuo Longxiangwei." ”

Chi Shengwei frowned, and asked hoarsely: "You said that you are the flag officer, but what about your banner?" ”

Zhao Xiaoman's face darkened and said: "The flag was lost, the team was also scattered, Xiao Dashuai and Liu Dashuai gave a death order, so that we must break through the valley defense line before dark, but the enemy fought too hard, our army was scattered by an enemy counterattack just two moments after coming up, and now everyone is scattered on the battlefield, following the drums behind to attack." ”

"That's ......"

Chi Shengwei nodded, and said in a low voice: "It seems that the battle situation has changed again, and the two adults are anxious, but such a blind onslaught is not the way, the enemy's return artillery is too fierce, and the Black Flag Army is going back and forth, the Tiger Ben Right Guard and the 30,000 border troops are not enough, how can we have so many lives to fill up?" ”

As he spoke, the return artillery of the Silent Annihilation Army gradually stopped, and the "rumbling" drum sound came from the rear position, which was the signal for the Northern Dynasty to attack.

Chi Shengwei looked up from behind the back slope, only to see ant-like soldiers suddenly emerging from the battlefield that had been smashed by huge stones, shouting and rushing towards the small hill ahead.

The sound of "whooshing" broke the wind continuously, and the sharp arrows of the Silent Army fell like raindrops, and the soldiers had already raised their shields to block their heads, but the rain of arrows was so dense that some soldiers continued to fall like cutting wheat.

With a "bang", a blood-stained soldier rushed up from the bottom of the hillside, was shot in the left eye by a sharp arrow, and fell at Chi Shengwei's feet without saying a word, and his breath was already dead in the blink of an eye.

This soldier is still very young, at most eighteen or nineteen years old, which makes Chi Shengwei can't help but think of his young son Chi Changyun who went out with him for the first time, the original good boy, but now he has already become a corpse that doesn't know where it is.

Chi Shengwei felt a heart-piercing pain in his heart.

"The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man died in battle!"

Chi Shengwei roared angrily, grabbed his waist knife in one hand, held a round shield in the other, and charged towards the mountain again like an ordinary soldier against the rain of arrows.

In the tent, Xiao Jinwu and Liu Yi were in a hurry, and the scouts had already found the traces of the Rhino Horn Army thirty miles away, and as Xiao Jinwu expected, the Rhino Horn Army had really outflanked the rear of the battlefield, ready to wipe out all the main forces of the Northern Dynasties.

And the only lifeblood of the Northern Korean army, the valley defense line, is still as stable as Mount Tai, at least in the short term, there is no hope of breaking through.

At present, nearly 100,000 main forces of the Northern Dynasties have been thrown up, crowded on a front less than three miles wide, unable to advance or retreat, and are being taken care of back and forth by the Black Flag Army and the Hui Hui Artillery, complaining bitterly.

"Why don't you divide the troops and block the rhino horn army first, so as not to be cut off from the back road?"

Yuan Shiyuan saw that the two handsome men looked ugly, but they were helpless, and tentatively expressed their opinions.

"No!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jinwu and Liu Yi did not hesitate at all, and shook their heads in unison to refuse.

The two didn't expect such a tacit understanding, looked at each other, and nodded.

Liu Yi spoke first: "This battle is a ruined ship, once the back road is left, our army will never want to cross the gap in front of us, and the thousands of miles of troops in the southeast will become a joke!" ”

Xiao Jinwu nodded and said, "Without 100,000 horses, who can stop the Rhino Horn Army?" Now that all the forces of our army have been invested in the valley defense line, where can so many people be taken out? ”

"Can we just watch the outcome of the valley defense?"

Yuan Shiyuan asked bitterly.

Xiao Jinwu and Liu Yi glanced at each other again, and said in a deep voice: "When it comes to gambling, I'm afraid there is only one hope at the moment." ”

Liu Yi nodded: "It depends on what bets are left in that kid's hand." ”
