Chapter 39: A Turning Point
"No, I can't hold it anymore. ”
"Hold on, don't give up. The spirit master next to him pulled him up and dragged him to continue running.
I don't know how long I've been running, but the spirit behind me is still chasing.
The spirit masters are exhausted, this is the third breakthrough, before rushing out of the Lingyun Fortress, now, the huge consumption, so that the entire team has no confidence to resist, can only keep fleeing.
"Die!" Mu Hao was still at the back of the team, leading some spirit masters to resist the pursuers, and then catch up with the large army. There are fewer and fewer spirit masters around. This is already the fifth general that Mu Hao has killed, and he is already almost to the limit, the dragon fury knife in his hand has begun to dim, and the spiritual power is a little difficult to mobilize, although it is already controlled and tries not to use spiritual power to fight. But sometimes, the siege of the spirit is too strong, and he still has to take action.
"If we run like this, there will be no reinforcements.....
Some soldiers were already starting to despair, Wu Mingkun was lying down, listening to what the soldiers nearby said, he was also helpless, looking at the wound on his body that was pierced by Xiangtian, and there was a toxin spreading on it.
"What the hell is this...."Although I have tried, but I have no way to solve these toxins, and after thinking about it, I can only guess that this toxin is refined by someone who is higher than my own cultivation, and I have added means such as seals, otherwise how can it be so difficult to solve. But surrounded by soldiers, he didn't dare to make a noise, and he kept silently suppressing the spread of the toxin with his spiritual power.
It's just that the poison is like a long worm, constantly drilling, uncomfortable, and the spiritual power is constantly absorbed.
"Keep going! Keep up with the team!" was also a spirit master encouraging his companions, and there was a forest in front of him, and if he could get there, the situation might be different, and everyone couldn't help but speed up their pace.
After entering the forest, the speed of the pursuit of the spirit army finally slowed down, and there were no arrows passing through the woodland on the mountain, and the spirit master army continued to climb over, and the roar of the spirit spirit continued to come.
"General Mu Hao, let's go quickly!" At the back of the team, Mu Hao was still fighting with the spirit, and the spirit master beside him hurriedly pulled Mu Hao away, and as soon as he left, the arrows and feathers around him flew over.
The grass and trees in the forest were dense, and the spirit master shook off the spirit by covering it for a distance, and it was already close to dawn at this time, and the forest was filled with mist. It is undoubtedly a great help for the spirit masters. In the middle of the ranks, the arrows of the Plundering Feather Army did not dare to shoot indiscriminately, there were not many left, and the fog also blocked the view, Xue Biqi simply ordered the whole army to flee forward and not fight.
By the time they reached the halfway point of the mountain, each other's physical strength was no longer much, and they were chased for dozens of miles, and sweat dripped out of their armor.
The spirit was getting slower and slower, and he was almost about to give up the pursuit.
Look at the growing hope. The spirit master couldn't help but speed up his pace, and some of them could already hear the sound of their lungs when they were panting, and they had almost no strength.
The surroundings gradually turned into a white patch. The fog was too thick.
"Pull it up, don't fall behind!" Luo Qiankun was covered with scars, and there were wounds one after another where the armor couldn't cover it. The soldiers behind him all followed, some supporting each other, even dragging and dragging.
Just as the team was climbing the mountain by inertia, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps coming from the direction of the top of the mountain, and everyone was immediately on alert.
"When did you go around ahead of us?" the generals at the front hurriedly formed a formation with their soldiers, preparing to meet the enemy. Leaning over little by little, the front was a white patch, and I didn't know the situation in front of me at all, so I didn't dare to be too fast.
A general on the right, with a wave of spiritual power, dispelled the mist, trying to see the opposite side as clearly as possible, but the mist surrounded it again in a blink of an eye.
"Be careful, the pikes are ahead!" the phalanx put on a posture to meet the enemy, but when the two sides gradually approached, both sides were stunned, and Gordy looked at a figure of five big and three thick on the opposite side, and was about to cry.
"Dead boy!!" Kunba stepped forward and picked up Gordy, but when he saw the scars all over his body, he also understood.
"Quick!" waved his hand, and immediately led the person through the line and towards the side of the spirit.
"Great!!" The whole team was very excited, those spirit masters who couldn't hold it anymore fell to the ground completely, looking at the huge team in front of them, although they didn't know what kind of troops they were, but they also made people completely relaxed.
Gordy followed Kunba, and the two of them led the team forward.
"It's ...... Abandoned Lingyun Fortress, right?" The marshal had already said about this possibility on the way when he came, so Kunba was not very surprised.
"yes, there are too many spirits. As the two spoke, they had already seen the shadow of Ling Ling, and Mu Hao was also in front of him, and he was overjoyed when he saw Kun Ba.
"Brothers, kill back!" Kun Ba took the soldiers of the Hewei battalion to join Mu Hao, reorganized the troops and began to counterattack, Ling Ling was caught off guard by this sudden counterattack, and thought that the previous spirit master was making a last stand, and many generals also began to fight with Ling Ling, but slowly found that there were more and more spirit masters emerging, and it was completely different from the previous state. The Hewei battalion crushed all the way. The murderous spirits scattered and fled.
"Don't chase!" An old voice came from behind him, Mu Hao stopped, looked back, and looked at the old figure full of surprise.
"Marshal!"
"Well, thank you guys. ”
"The marshal actually went out in person..... we are incompetent..."
"I can't say that, I know you've done your best, and they've already told me about the situation on the front line, but it's that the situation in the intelligence network is very bad, especially ...... We're on the northern front, east and west, but..."
patted Mu Hao's shoulder.
"You guys did a great job! I have absolute responsibility for the recent loss, how can I blame you. The two wanted to talk, but Wu Mingkun also came over, his hand still covering the wound.
"Senior brother, you are!"
"Marshal, the defeated general is incompetent and has failed to hold Lingyun. Wu Mingkun knelt on one knee and clasped his fists against each other.
"Senior brother, get up quickly. Pang Yuanze stared at Wu Mingkun's wound, it was black, the toxin was still spreading, and the blood from the wound was constantly oozing out....
"It's... The venom of the Nightmare Flame Flower..."The two fingers kept pouring out spiritual power, Pang Yuanze carefully surrounded the wound with spiritual power, and constantly forced out the toxin from both sides, different from Wu Mingkun's method, in the spiritual power, there was a trace of water vapor drilled in, and black gas kept coming out, and the pain that pierced the heart made Wu Mingkun couldn't help but shout out.
"Grandpa!" Ye Xie and Yang Hao also ran over, and seeing Wu Mingkun's appearance, Ye Xie unconsciously clenched the giant axe in his hand, and looked angrily in the direction of Ling Ling.
"This poison is not refined by ordinary spirits...."After a while, Pang Yuanze came up with such a sentence. There was some jet-black liquid in his hand, and the poisonous liquid crystal was crystal clear, and there was a faint black gas coming out.
"I also think so, this poison is very strong, and I use spiritual power just to block the erosion. Moreover, this time, the preparation of the spirit is very sufficient, we even find it very difficult to hold on, the frequency of their siege of the city, they don't care how much they sacrifice, they are completely crushed by numbers. ”
"Moreover, they seem to know about our team......."Xue Biqi said coldly.
"How?"
"Our Arrow Rain Formation, when defending the city, generally speaking, there will be two frequencies, generally according to the situation, the generals choose which one to use, but in the past, we would not be so quick to change the frequency of the Lingling's reaction, but this time, they are like knowing that we will switch next, and the defense is very timely. That's why you see so much when you press the city gates. ”
All the generals summed up the experience of this battle, and Pang Yuanze listened while playing with the poison in Wu Mingkun, his brows were deeply locked.
After the toxin was removed, Pang Yuanze led the generals, chose a place to sit down, and discussed, the wounded soldiers around him had already begun to treat, and the sound of pain could be heard everywhere.
A defensive position was formed around the perimeter to prevent the sneak attack of the spirits. And the generals sat in the center and listened to Pang Yuanze's instructions.
"When we were in the rear before, we formulated several strategies, first of all, about Lingyun Fortress, the first way is to retake it, set up a dark formation around it, to prevent the next offensive, I have arranged the follow-up troops, and then Lingyun Fortress will be used as a fulcrum to launch an offensive forward. ”
"As for the second option....... we can break up the team and focus on the team and fight on its own. ”
"What?" all the generals were stunned, this was what the marshal said, and they couldn't believe that this was a strategy set by the marshal. The number of the Ling Ling army is obvious to all, although the current strength can fight a battle, but it is still one thing to be able to win, but now it has to be dispersed?
"We don't have to fight hard, we just keep wearing them down. Pang Yuanze emphasized again.
"But the marshal..... I'm afraid that this effect will only ..... we will be consumed by them....."
Mu Hao frowned, but didn't say anything.
"It seems that everyone thinks that this second method is not good, so when I talk nonsense, let's think about the first method, right now, how do you think the generals should retake the fortress?"
"I would like to take the order, be the vanguard, and attack through the back door of the Hou Lingyun Fortress, in the previous battle, we have already destroyed the gate, presumably the spirit will not repair it so quickly. Mu Hao spoke at this time, and he was also very clear about the situation at the back door, but now that he had just experienced the battle, the original combat power of about 170,000 had lost more than 40,000, and the soldiers also needed to recover.
As soon as Mu Hao said, the other generals were also going to fight, and they all wanted to recapture Lingyun Fortress, Pang Yuanze looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.
"They are all so warlike, yes, no wonder they dare to fight in the face of so many enemy troops, you boys, you are all good breeds! However, just after the battle, you are not sleepy, and the soldiers also need to rest, you all go to count your respective military headquarters now, don't be at that time, you can't find anyone, let's go and rest first." ”
"Command!"
The figures of the generals gradually walked away, and Wu Mingkun's toxin had disappeared a lot, and the wound was a lot more obvious at this time, which looked very scary.
"Senior brother..... this time...... Is it that dangerous?"
"What danger, what are you talking about?"
"Those little devils don't know, don't I know, what else can surprise the marshal out? And so many bad things recently, as well as the preparations made by the spirit, are obvious.....
"What the situation is, what exactly is going on, we are just guessing, seeing a little shadow. ”
"From the Seminary?"
"Well, it's a bit of a movement, so I'll come over and take a look. ”
"Haha... Come and see..... don't you think, even the monastery is a little abnormal. ”
"You have to know what you're talking about."
"Heh..."
"Okay, lately, it's better for you to recuperate from your injuries and not to fight. ”
"It depends. ”
Two old men, you support me, I hold you, just like back then, on the battlefield of swords and swords, step by step towards the army.
