(Foreword)
Cold ice can't break the water, and dead wood can meet spring again.
(Text)
"We won!! We won!! Cui Li shouted.
But I don't have any real feelings about this victory, as if Lu Xun personally sent the results of this victory to me.
However, since we have won, my heart is still full of joy, no matter what, we have captured Yiling Pass, and it will definitely play a vital role in the future deployment of the Shu army.
But at this moment, there was a sudden loud bang!! I looked at the walls in shock!!
"What's going on!!"
"What's going on?"
"The blade is out of control!!
The infantry on the city wall held their swords in their hands, but it was not so much the soldiers who held the swords as the swords that led the soldiers.
"Cheng Yin, what's wrong? Why can't the soldiers on the walls hold their swords? Cui Li watched in amazement as the soldiers on the city wall struggled to retract their blades.
How so? I stared at the soldiers on the walls, no!! I think I've seen this somewhere. But all of a sudden, there was no idea. Wait, I remembered, it was at Yiling Pass, the old man had told me.
"Everyone, get back and !! Fast!!! Retract the Blade!! Fast!!! I shouted.
If it's the same as I thought, then...
"What's wrong!! Victory is at hand!! Why take back your blades and withdraw to your camp? Do you want to give up the fruits of victory again?" Professor Twilight asked, puzzled.
I don't have time to explain to him the reason for all this, and it is necessary to evacuate Yiling Pass as soon as possible, and the army began to retreat rapidly under my orders, and the soldiers withdrew their swords from their scabbards.
"Cheng Yin, are you talking!! Why the whole army retreated? We are only one step away from taking Yiling Pass!! What are you doing here??? Are you crazy? Professor Twilight was furious.
"The Great Army stopped retreating!! All-Army Assault !! Professor Twilight glared and waved the sword in his hand.
The soldiers were also confused, and the pace of retreat slowed down again.
When I saw that the speed of the army's retreat had slowed down again, I was furious in my heart, holding up the token given to me by Liu Xuande and shouting, "Your Majesty gave me the token here!! The three armies obey my orders!! If the whole army retreats, if there is still the slightest objection, military law will be !! ”
"Cheng Yin!! You!!! Don't forget that you are not the only one in this strange array now, everyone's lives are also closely related, it is not that you are thinking about this commander of the three armies, and deliberately give up this excellent battle situation. "Professor Twilight's is also furious.
"Professor Wu, tell me why all of us have all our lives entrusted to him?" Professor Twilight threw the topic to Professor Wu.
"Cheng Yin, Professor Dujiang's words may indeed be a little excited, but there is also some truth, now that my offensive is in full swing, why did you suddenly order the retreat?" Professor Wu also looked at me inexplicably and said.
"Yes...... Yes, this victory is in ...... In front of me, I ...... We actually ...... ourselves Take this fruit yourself...... The fruit was thrown back again, and it didn't ...... There is no such thing...... Reasonable. Hu Zaide said slowly.
But now there is no time to explain, I clearly remember that when the old man and I talked about this Yiling Pass, it was as if I was really standing at that time, watching thousands of troops and horses running in front of me. My mind took me back to the war.
The drums shook the sky, the mighty soldiers gathered in front of Yiling Pass, and there was a person wearing golden armor in the army who was particularly eye-catching, he stared at the Yiling Pass in front of him, and suddenly shouted, the whole army rushed forward! But at this moment, the blades in the hands of the siege soldiers began to shake... The soldiers had to hold their blades with both hands, but it had no effect at all, and the blades in their hands still broke away from the hands of the soldiers and then jumped into the air, like a bow and arrow, towards Yiling Pass, if the old man had not already told me, otherwise I would have been amazed at this time.
The besieging army was overwhelmed by this sudden assault and looked at each other. The sword of the golden armor general also flew into the Yiling Pass just now, and he was even more angry, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack the city, and the catapult began to throw boulders at the strong city wall, and the army also began to go towards the Yiling Pass, seeing that this formation was far superior to our army several times, and the siege vehicle was also slowly advancing, once it reached the city wall, it was only a matter of day and night to capture this pass.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of metal crashing, and something unbelievable happened!! Suddenly, a huge sword rose from the Yiling Pass, and the towering city wall was like a scabbard at this time, but why did such a huge sword rise automatically?
While I was wondering, the great sword was already in the way of the besieging soldiers and the walls, and the army stopped advancing.
With such a huge sword, I am afraid it is not so simple to use it freely, the sword blocked the way of the army to attack the city, so the army and this giant sword confronted, no one launched an attack, the general of the golden armor was furious when he saw this, and ordered the whole army to rush forward!
But at the same time as the army marched forward, the giant sword suddenly swung and slashed towards the besieging soldiers, and the army suffered heavy losses in an instant. They all retreated and fled.
The general of the golden armor was shocked, and hurriedly returned to his horse and retreated, and the originally assembled army scattered at once, and I looked at everything in front of me, noncommittal.
My mind went back to the present, I didn't have time to tell them what I had seen, and the most important thing now was to withdraw immediately.
"Professor Wu, please believe me, I have a reason to do this, but the current situation is critical, and I don't have time to talk to you in detail." My expression was solemn.
"Professor Wu, Cheng Yin doesn't like to joke like me, he must have a reason for doing this, let's just listen to his retreat for the time being." Cui Li said.
"Report !!" The soldiers at the front came to report.
"Say !! Quickly" Every second counts right now.
"The infantry on the walls can't take back their swords, so they can't retreat for the time being." The soldier said.
"Can't get the sword back? You're not kidding, are you? Cui Li asked.
"He's not kidding, that's what worries me as well." I gazed at the city wall again: "You immediately order the city wall infantry to throw away their blades and leave the city wall!! Fast!!! ”
Now is the time to race against the clock.
