Chapter 598: Kill into the mountains and forests

The silence of the mountains and forests always seems mysterious.

The soft spring sunlight penetrates through the gaps between the leaves and shines through the shady woods, giving each green leaf a thriving scene. Some of the yellow fallen leaves have become a little warm because of the light, and you can feel the breath of life exuded by the old trees.

This is not all there is to the mountains and forests in spring, when you feel the warmth of spring, and the green vitality, bypass a few huge dead trees, step on the heavy rotten leaves on the ground, or turn over a huge stone, and maybe fall into a silent and mysterious dark place.

Mountains and forests have always been a world of trees, and the sunlight is always blocked by tall trees, making the real mountains and forests an independent world. The dark, damp, and scent of trees may be the root of the mountain world.

Now there was a commotion, tearing through the silence of the mountain forest, causing the little beasts in the mountain forest, and some flying birds, to rush out of the mountain forest and flee in all directions.

In the midst of this noise, there were angry roars of people, and the whistling of arrows, more of the impact of hand-to-hand combat, and even more of people's screams.

A group of civilians, dressed in tattered leather armor and looking particularly tired, rushed into a gloomy jungle amid the noise. There were only a hundred of them, but behind them were thousands of upright dynasty soldiers in frenzied pursuit.

Leading the way was the fat man Mohandas.

It's just a lame leg, and although the broken leg has been healed, there is always a bone missing, so it's what it is now. Although the evil spirit is still there, it is inconvenient to move after all, and it can no longer be compared with the original speed in terms of speed.

Mohandas knew that among the fleeing crowd was the young man who had defeated him on the city wall, the Red Dragon, and was now the backbone of the Wu people who fought against them. If this person is killed, they will no longer be troubled in this jungle.

According to the scout's report, there were not many soldiers who rushed out of Heavenly City, and all of them were led by this young man. Therefore, he urged the soldiers to keep rushing forward, to catch the young man, and to be ashamed of his blood.

Meng Winding Red Dragon was indeed in this team of tired soldiers, but there was a kind of helplessness in his heart.

On that day, in anger, facing the early morning sun, when he left Yitian City with the soldiers who were willing to follow, and chased after the retreating Duanzheng Dynasty, he vowed to drive the Duanzheng Dynasty people out of the Land of the Overfall, so he had no way back, and he must kill all these people of the Upright Dynasty, or completely drive them out of the Land of the Overlay and fulfill his oath.

When making the decision, he thought about all difficulties, but he didn't expect to be chased and killed by the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty, and he was chased like a lost dog, so he could only hide in Tibet and keep fleeing, not to mention killing the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty, even if he wanted to save his life, it became difficult.

This happened because he underestimated the situation of the battle in the mountains and forests, and only wanted to kill the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty, but he did not expect that the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty could also kill them. And there were too few people who came out with him, only more than 1,340 soldiers.

These more than 1,000 people were mainly mountain people who fled to Yitian City in the mountains and forests, and later joined the people's army. There are also a small number of city guard soldiers, who are basically clansmen who escaped from the mountains and forests, and they are all reporting soldiers who followed him at the beginning.

Among them is Wu Junyan, when reporting to the soldiers, Meng Huan Chilong was very optimistic about him. But he wanted to have a good background in the city guards, but the city guards finally gave up going out of the city and were unwilling to regain the lost territory, which made him very disappointed, so he went out of the city with the people's army and gave up his identity as a city guard.

At that time, there were more soldiers who came out than now, but he persuaded some people, the young, the old, and the wounded, to march and fight in the mountains and forests, and these people would become a burden, so he left them all in Yitian City.

Especially those who were wounded, only when they recovered from their injuries in Yitian City, he allowed them to return to the civilian army, and everything in Yitian City was handed over to Lei Mu to take care of, how to say, now the civilian army is funded by the Lei Chamber of Commerce and the Divine Array Gate.

In fact, he believed that there were still many soldiers under the city wall who had the same idea, and they went into the mountains and forests to restore the territory of the Wu Clan, but they did not dare to make their own decisions because of the constraints of military orders.

But he also believes that such people still come from the mountains and forests, and only people who have feelings for the mountains and forests will really love the mountains and forests, and think about saving the entire mountains and forests and restoring the original freedom of the mountains and forests.

When he made the decision to enter the mountains and forests, he was ready for a long-term battle, and he didn't let some people follow, and he also needed the base of Heavenly City to help him stabilize his rear, provide resources, and recruit troops.

Like Lei Mu, Lei Suyu, and the spirit witches who are not good at fighting, they all stayed in Yitian City, and these people, under the command of Lei Mu, can provide a lot of help to the people's army. In his mind, ***, pills, arrows and weapons, including food, are all needed by the people's army now.

It had been 14 days since they rushed into the forest that morning, but the situation had changed dramatically.

When they followed the tail of the fleeing soldiers of the Duanzheng Dynasty, along the way, as he thought, more than a thousand people chased the tails of the Duanzheng Dynasty and beat them, feeling that the Duanzheng Dynasty people had no power to fight back at all.

The people of the Duanzheng Dynasty only cared about running in front, even if they couldn't escape, they stopped to rest, as long as they heard the sound of shouting and killing, the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty ran forward in a panic, they were in the battle of Yitian City, they were cold, and they were already afraid of fighting.

During the entire pursuit, only a small number of upright dynasty soldiers spontaneously resisted, and did not dare to fight for a long time, in order to cover their own people to run farther. So as soon as they formed a team to rush, they rushed across, and then it was the stage of the people's army, following closely behind.

On the first day of the pursuit, the people's army fought several beautiful battles in a row, and it can be said that they were invincible, which gave Menghuan Chilong and the people's army more encouragement and confidence. Because there are only 50,000 people left in the Duan Zheng Dynasty who fled in front, and the leaders are all wounded, as long as the pursuit continues, it will not be many days before these Duan Zheng Dynasty people will be killed by them.

But on the second day, Meng Huan Chilong felt that something was wrong, and the resistance of the people of the Duan Dynasty became tenacious, and those of the Duan Dynasty who blocked them became organized and disciplined, and they were no longer stragglers, and their own soldiers began to suffer casualties.

He suspected that the people of the Duan Zheng Dynasty had found that there were not many soldiers behind them, and that in the process of fleeing, the situation in the army had been stabilized.

You must know that he only has more than 1,000 people, and if he is surrounded by the people of the upright dynasty, it is possible to be completely annihilated. These more than 1,000 people were his hope for recovering the mountains and forests, and he did not dare to take this risk.

When he expressed his suspicions and was about to stop the pursuit, the people's army was in a state of excitement, thinking that the people of the Duan Zheng Dynasty would not react so quickly, and in the field, the fleeing Duan Zheng Dynasty people scattered and fled, as long as they chased a fight, they would definitely be rewarded.

When he brought people out, he was prepared for a long time, and he didn't think that with his more than 1,000 people, he could kill 50,000 people in a short time, so he hesitated.

The reason for his hesitation was that he wanted to find more mountain people and expand his civilian army, and he wanted to go deep into the jungle to see if he could meet the mountain people, so that the current civilian army could be expanded, and there were many people fighting for the freedom of the earth.

Therefore, he approved of the continuation of the pursuit, but out of caution, he himself took command.

After chasing for a morning, he didn't find any of the people of the Righteous Dynasty, not even a single soldier who had fallen behind, and those of the Righteous Dynasty seemed to have disappeared, which made him uneasy and felt that all this was not normal.

He ordered the pursuit to be stopped, and the deputy leader, Liao Shusheng, also felt that something was wrong, and began to restrain the excited civilian soldiers.

When the scouts were sent to explore the way, they found that there was a place called Broken Soul Valley in front of them, which was a dark and gloomy valley, as long as someone entered the valley and someone blocked the mouth of the valley, it was a dangerous place that could kill people.

Although the scouts did not find the people of the Righteous Dynasty, with his intuition and military talents, Meng Winding Red Dragon still felt that he should stay away from the Valley of Broken Souls. Therefore, without hesitation, the people's army was ordered to retreat immediately.

But it was too late.

About 10,000 people from the righteous dynasty rushed out of the valley and surrounded them.

After all, the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty had been fighting for a long time, and it only took one day to gather their soldiers and form a combat force. also found out the situation of the Wu people behind him, and laid out a situation for them.

It's just that they don't want to jump into the trap and want to leave immediately, so they chase them out with great vigour. Now there are more people in the Duanzheng Dynasty than them, about 10,000 people, and the trap set for them is to besiege and kill, that is to say, not one is left, but they have not entered the encirclement, which gives them a chance to survive.

At that moment, the whole situation reversed, and the person who was being chased and killed became the person who was being hunted and killed. The upright dynasty people followed closely behind, and it seemed that they would not kill them all, and would not withdraw their troops.

After two consecutive days of fighting and running, the people's army was finally blocked by the upright dynasty people in a place called Tianshui Cliff. The reason is that he doesn't want to retreat to Yitian City, and he still wants to stay in the mountains and continue to fight with the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty, so he must stay in the mountains and forests in order to deal with the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty.

originally wanted to rely on his familiarity with the mountains and forests to get rid of those upright dynasty people. But there were too few of them, and the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty were ten times as many as them, and they kept biting them tightly, so that the civilian soldiers were exhausted, and finally they did not escape, and were blocked by the people of the Duanzheng Dynasty.

In the mountains, only steep cliffs, and treacherous places can be called cliffs, this kind of place is a good place for defense, but when you have your back to the cliff and are surrounded by heavy troops, this place becomes a Jedi, and you have nowhere to escape.

Fortunately, Tianshui Cliff is named after the river under the cliff, which means that there are not stones and trees under the cliff, but water, which gives them a chance.

Although the Wu people are not good at water, with the trees in the mountains and forests, as well as their own magic power, it is not difficult to wade into the water to escape. What's more, the terrain here makes it impossible for the people of the upright dynasty to completely surround the people's army.

The people's army held out in Tianshui Cliff until night, and after losing more than 100 soldiers, they took advantage of the darkness to descend from the cliff to the river called Tianshui, and then all the soldiers were strung together with ropes and escaped from Tianshui Cliff along the water.
