Chapter 178: The Beacon Rises to the Frontier

"It's ...... What's going on?" Yin Guerrilla looked at the other party's strict formation for a long time, and then yelled, "What the fuck is going on! What about General Zuo's army? Didn't he send a signal!?"

"We're going back the way we came. Ba Xingtian made a judgment in an instant, "Pass my order, the rear army will become the front army, and I will cut off the back-"

"Report!" Before he could finish speaking, a lieutenant hurriedly interrupted him, "My lord, a large number of high-ranking troops have appeared in Gudao, and they are still erecting horse rejections and roadblocks!"

"So the baggage that the other party brought was not for the purpose of building a camp, but for intercepting us?" Yin Gujian opened his mouth blankly, "They already knew that we would turn over from Pozigou?"

"Be sober!" Overlord roared, drawing everyone's panicked attention to himself, "The enemy is only 20,000 in number, and it is a four-way encirclement formation, there must be weak points! Trapped at the crossing, you will die, desperately break through, there is still a glimmer of life!"

"But...... Where are we going to break through?"

"To the east is the way to Qiguo, and they can't let us go easily. To the north is a vast moor, and I guess the other side will not stick to this path. And there is Baixi Lake in front of you, if there is good water, you can jump into the lake and escape by yourself later, I will not pursue it!" Ba Xingtian took a deep breath and said loudly, "Everyone, listen up, this battle is likely to be your last battle." But no matter what, we have to break through this line of defense, if nothing else, just to bring this news back to Leizhou Mansion!"

"If we all die here, this is a meaningless defeat, and the world will only blame our border army for being incompetent!"

"But if someone can go back alive, everything that Zuo'an, the dog thief, has done will not be covered up! Think about it, when others poke us in the back and scold, the murderer behind the scenes lives in the world with peace of mind, can you bear this tone?"

"My lord, I can't bear ......"

"Absolutely unbearable!"

"My lord, we want to kill back!"

The shouts of the soldiers began one after another, and soon they became waves.

"Yes, the betrayer should not die a good death! And we can only have a chance to take revenge if we rush out! Everyone obeys my orders, go north, and then go back to Leizhou! Even if you climb, you must climb out of this dead land!"

"Go back to Leizhou!"

"Go back to Leizhou!"

Overlord waved his hand, "Blow the trumpet!"

"Woo woo woo woo β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”!"

With the sound of a thick trumpet, this army of 2,000 people rushed into the headless military formation of Gao Guo.

The lakeside is boiling.

......

When night fell, the sound of fighting finally faded away.

Overlord didn't know how many people's heads he had chopped up, and a few of them were Fang Shi. The immovable Myojin shattered and shattered under the constant blows until he had no strength to perform a new genjutsu.

At first, he was accompanied by his lieutenants and personal soldiers, but gradually, they were cut down and stabbed to death one by one, until there was no one else around.

It is also not known how many soldiers escaped from the desperate situation.

Hopefully, Baixi Lake will hide their whereabouts.

Ba Xingtian dragged his almost numb body out of the land for several miles, and when he made sure that there were no more enemies behind him, he found a big tree and sat down slowly.

One arm was cut off, and there were nearly 100 inch-long wounds all over the body, and the blood that flowed out almost overflowed the middle coat.

Although Genshu is incomparably strong and suitable for the battlefield of flesh and blood, it is not invincible. It is a miracle in itself to be able to break out of the encirclement under the encirclement and suppression of troops several times that of one's own.

However, if you want to use this stump to cross the swamp and return to Leizhou Mansion from the north, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult.

Suddenly, a small stampede came from the darkness.

I saw a man in a burqa and a hood slowly walking out of the shadow of the bush and stopping in front of the tyrant.

The tyrant wanted to hold the sword, but when he stretched out his hand, he realized that his weapon had long been abandoned in the process of breaking through.

The other party looked at him for a moment before he whispered, "Tyranny Heaven...... General?"

"Exactly. He spat out blood, "Who are you?"

The comer lifted his hood and revealed his face, "Suzhou Fei family, Fei Nian." ”

Ba Xingtian was silent for a while before he snorted, "I guess, you shouldn't have come to save me." ”

"Not bad. Fei Nian nodded, "My mission is to make sure that you die in the Frontier Lands. ”

"Honorifics? huh...... There's no need to be so pretentious. He let out a sigh, "It turns out that all this is a plan of the Privy Council...... I thought that the family hated the Privy Council from the bottom of my heart, but I didn't expect that you would also have a time when they would get together. ”

"No, the family does hate the Privy Council, and what I have done has nothing to do with the Fei family. As for you......," Fei Nian paused, "you are the Privy Councillor and deserve respect. It's a pity that your existence has hindered our future, and your persistence can't keep up with the evolution of the times, so there will be such a disgraceful scene. ”

"If Lao Tzu still has the strength, he will definitely tear your mouth in half!" Ba Xingtian spat disdainfully, and his overly intense emotions made him cough violently, and he gasped after finally calming down, "What are you waiting for?"

"Do you have any words or wishes for me to pass on?" Fei Nian drew the long sword at his waist, "as long as it is within my ability......"

Hearing this, a figure suddenly appeared in Ba Xingtian's mind.

It took almost all his might to keep the name back in his mind.

In the end, he sneered, "General Zuo won't be safe and sound, right?"

"Of course, he will soon follow your path. ”

"In that case, I don't have much more to say. ”

Fei Nian nodded, "Everything will end quickly, I promise." As he finished speaking, a faint blue flame erupted from the blade of his swordβ€”and he swung it down.

The sword flashed, and the hot blood of the overlord sky wet the roots of the tree.

......

It should be over there, right?

Zuo Anxin looked at the border line of Qiguo on the map with anxiety - he knew that the bureau he had set up must not be leaked out, so the last line of defense to prevent Baxingtian from returning to Leizhou Mansion was the majority of the troops he led.

A night of waiting kept him awake all night, and it wasn't until dawn broke that he breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, no matter how brave Baxingtian was, it was impossible for him to break through the blockade ten times his own with 2,000 people, and no one came from the west for a whole day, which could only mean that this army was completely wiped out in the area of Baixi Lake.

"Pack up the barracks and let the departments prepare to go home. Zoan ordered.

"Yes!"

Then he rolled up the map and looked at Gonggong Liu on the side, "That's it, right?"

"You are doing a great job, General. Your Highness will reward you. The father-in-law arched his hand.

Zoan walked out of the tent after returning the salute.

Without the Tyrant Heaven, this Leizhou border army is undoubtedly up to him. This is both a great temptation and a great responsibility. To be honest, without the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he didn't want to send his colleagues to a dead end, after all, with the immovable Myojin in charge, the pressure on the Leizhou Mansion would be much lighter.

But he also secretly heard that His Majesty's physical condition is not optimistic, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may ascend to the throne at any time. He didn't want to give the other party the impression of not knowing how to lift up at such a time.

The lesser of two evils.

What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also has his own considerations.

"General, the sentry has spotted a cavalry approaching us from the west!"

"What, cavalry?" Zoan was startled at first, and then furious, "Where did the cavalry of the Gaoguo border army come from?" Who is the reporter, is he blind!"

As for the Heavenly Tyrant Force that he was most worried about, it was even more impossible.

But the pro-soldier showed a hesitant look, "The other party's outfit doesn't seem to be Gaoguo's troops. ”

The more he talked, the more absurd it became, Zuo An pushed the other party away, rushed directly to the nearest bamboo and wooden sentry tower in the camp, and looked westward.

He saw smoke and dust billowing from the horizon, and countless black shadows swooped down from the hillside and entered his field of vision. Judging by both momentum and movement speed, it is true that a soldier cannot do it with his legs.

When the other party got closer, Zoan could hardly believe his eyes.

The opposing cavalry was almost all dressed in black armor, with longbows and quivers hanging from their backs, and spears with crescent-shaped scimitars on the heads. This equipment was undoubtedly the elite cavalry of the Xu Kingdom, and if he remembered correctly, the unique cavalry spear was made by the public loser, called the Half-Moon Scythe.

The question is that Xu Guo and Qi Guo are not connected, how did they end up here?

What about Gao Guo, what are the border troops of Gao Guo doing?

When the black-clad horsemen lowered their scythes and began to charge in groups, Zoan slowly turned his head and swallowed as he looked at his subordinates waiting for orders below.

β€œ...... Leizhou, in danger. ”
