"Hoohe, Hoohe, Hoohe, Hoohe......" Behind the slope of a wild barren mountain range, two old and young people supporting each other, to be precise, the old man is supporting the young man more, and they are limping and running on the side of the slope.

From time to time, there was a burst of fire and a terrible shout of murder behind them.

A few minutes ago......

A team of knights who had just fled from the battlefield in the valley marched on this path, and in the middle of the knight team was a young man wearing a pair of armor that was obviously inconsistent with his figure, this young man had a pair of very bright red eyebrows, and he looked embarrassed when he was protected by everyone, not only did he not have a little sense of joy with a sense of security, but he had a lot of faint worries.

So much so that when he was riding on a horse, his head was always looking at the ground, and he was just riding in the direction of the person in front of him with his skillful riding skills.

He didn't even look around, and as a man who had traveled with the army in his early years, he didn't pay attention to the terrain around him at this time.

He was naturally the Sword Emperor IV who had just escaped death under the cover of Zhao Lucheng.

However, what he hadn't noticed about the nearby terrain was noticed by the old man at the front of the group.

"Why don't I remember all this strange terrain when I came," said the old man to himself, and then called a few knights who were beside him, and said, "You guys, go ahead and take a look at some of the nearby hills." ”

"Yes!" Hearing the order of the old general Wei Zilu, several knights who stepped forward immediately responded.

Then the knights, who had received the order, immediately pulled the reins of their horses, and with their horses they were out of the ranks, and galloped to several nearby hills.

Wei Zilu and the others continued to move forward, the Sword Emperor IV didn't know what these people who were sent by Wei Zilu to the roadside mountain bag were doing, and Wei Zilu Ran didn't plan to say it, lest the Sword Emperor IV go and be frightened again.

"There shouldn't be a problem...... Wei Zilu glanced behind him, although as an old general, he was in danger in any unexpected situation, but just as a general of the metal empire, of course he didn't want to see himself, His Majesty the Sword Emperor and these remaining soldiers overwhelmed by the frenzy of the non-metal army's pursuits.

Speaking of chasing soldiers, this is actually a shame on the course of his war with the old general Wei Zilu, the soldiers he led are far better than the enemy, even if the number and quality of his soldiers are not as good as the other party, but later there is still the support of Zhao Lucheng's 30,000 Fe heavy cavalry, but with these advantages, in the eyes of the old general Wei, it is accurate to say that he did not seize these opportunities to quickly dispose of the acting Beitang Shuodong, but was driven by a glorious thing called knight, and had to deal with Beitang Shuodong personally, thus delaying the time, and was wiped out by the strong acid troops of Gong Rui, who came later。

Wei Zilu suddenly realized how clever the non-metal people were to play tricks in battle.

The so-called soldiers are not tired of deceit.

Sword Emperor IV rode his horse to the side of Wei Zilu and let his horse go hand in hand with his war horse: "Old general, we don't know how long it will take to reach our country's border?"

Wei Zilu looked around, this should be the route traveled by Zhao Lucheng, the striker of the South Road, the troops have just left Death Valley, if you guess correctly, it should be not far from P City, P City heard Zhao Lucheng say that it is an empty city before, he was worried that there were ambushes among them, so he stationed a team here, but no matter what, as long as he got there, it would be safe.

But why didn't any of the knights sent out before come back to report?

Those mountain bags are not far from here, and besides, the knights are all on horseback, so the speed should be very fast......

But no matter what, you still have to tell the Sword Emperor IV about the specific situation and your own judgment first.

He looked around, but still didn't see a knight to report, so he had to explain the situation to Sword Emperor IV first.

But his words were no longer spoken, and the sharp arrow he had been carrying suddenly shot from a distance, and with one shot it hit the old general's jaw!

"?!" Sword Emperor IV, who was waiting for Wei Zilu's report, was shocked when he saw this scene, "Old general!"

Not only Sword Emperor IV, everyone present was shocked on the spot, and immediately a small commotion spread in the team.

"All on alert!" At this moment, a feminine young man full of bookishness, slender eyebrows, and no beard on his face suddenly stood up and said loudly, "Enemy attack!"

As soon as this shout came out, the commotion immediately stopped, followed by the sound of swords unsheathed, and it seemed that all the knights hurriedly calmed down their inner panic after this "vigilance" sounded, and prepared to enter the state of war.

Even though everyone knew very well that they were probably not much combat power when they were on the run, they would have to fight hard to save their lives and protect the supreme being of the Empire in their ranks, Sword Emperor IV.

Under his command, all the knights clenched their swords and shields, and rode in a circle formation, protecting Sword Emperor IV and Wei Zilu inside.

Suddenly shot in the jaw by a sharp arrow, Wei Zilu was also frightened for a moment at first, but his years of experience in fighting immediately made him calm and calm, although the jaw was broken and the corrosion of the non-metallic magic attached to the tip of the arrow caused great pain, but as a general, he was the backbone of the current team, he knew very well that if he was in chaos, the team would be chaotic, and His Majesty the Sword Emperor would be in danger, at this time, as a guard general, he didn't want to see it the last thing he wanted to see, so he hurriedly beat his spirit, beckoned to the young man who had shouted loudly to control the team before, and signaled that the young man himself had handed over the command of the team to this person during this time。

The young man immediately nodded on his horse: "Subordinate commands!"

Looking at his face, it was actually Su Zhengyu, who had served in Zhao Lucheng's army before!

Zhao Lucheng shouldered the heavy task of leading away the non-metallic strong acid troops and finding Xiao Yulong, who had fled into the mountains, so he handed over the task of commanding the remnants of the Fe Army and protecting the Sword Emperor IV to Su Zhengyu, so at the critical moment, he stood up decisively and stabilized the military heart of the Fe soldiers, who accounted for the vast majority of the number in this team.

And the rest of the people are nothing more than the survivors of the noble soldiers who went out with the Sword Emperor IV this time and served as a backup force, and these gentlemen who usually do not pay attention to training finally realized the cruelty of war after experiencing the baptism of these battles.

Therefore, those of them who survived also firmly remembered one point, that is, it would be safer to follow the regular army of these Fe tribes.

So when Su Zhengyu gives an order, everyone will follow his order and act.

After accepting Wei Zilu's entrustment, Su Zhengyu immediately stepped out and stood outside the circle: "Su is the secretary of the heavy cavalry team of the Fe clan this time, and all the men of the Fe clan who have gone out together in the team know this, and I have also skimmed some military books and know some combat methods. ”

"General Wei had an accident and couldn't speak, so he handed over the command to me, so I will make good use of it to ensure everyone's final victory. He continued, "The reconnaissance team has not come back for so long, there must be an accident, there must be something wrong with the mountain bags on both sides of these roads, follow the route we came from before, and avoid these complicated terrains!

"Yes!" Under Su Zhengyu's order, the team quickly drove towards the left fork, and everyone in the team at this time was carrying out Su Zhengyu's order in a uniform manner, so neat that even Wei Zilu was amazed.

Although he can't speak in this state now, he has already moved the idea of accepting this young and courageous secretary of the army as an apprentice, although this son seems to be weak and weak, it is because he is a civilian, but as a civilian who does not need to be on the battlefield at all, he can actually face danger in the face of great difficulties, and he can instantly command a chaotic team in an orderly manner, which is very commendable.

Therefore, in Wei Zilu's eyes, this is definitely a talent!

"The children can be taught. Wei Zilu thought to himself, and his left hand wanted to touch his beard, but he found that when his chin was injured, his beard had been corroded by non-metallic magic.

Now his chin is wrapped in a simple cloth bandaged by a knight.

"Boom, boom!" Not long after the team left the previous place, there was a rumbling explosion from behind, and a thick gray-black flame rose from the four-dimensional mountain bag, and the smoke was rolling with a huge fog.

When Su Zhengyu saw this scene, he frowned tightly, and he shouted loudly to everyone: "Quick, evacuate quickly!"

"Hiss——!" As soon as Su Zhengyu's words fell, a fierce horse neighing sounded, and everyone urged the horse reins to the extreme, so that the war horses under the crotch understood the crisis of the facts they were in, coupled with the fire that was rapidly stretching behind them, so the sound of the horse's hooves in the whole area became rapid, until finally, all that could be heard was the sound of horses' hooves that had never been broken, like a roaring "da-da" horses' hooves.

Under the command of Su Zhengyu, everyone formed a protective team with Sword Emperor IV and Wei Zilu as the core, and quickly marched along the left fork in the road, behind them, clusters of black flames spread and burned violently, emitting a pungent smell and thick smoke, like the waves set off by the high tide of the sea, and the tidal shock wave formed by the sea of fire quickly pressed towards this group of metal knights who were galloping fast.

Compared with this sea of fire, the volume of this knight team is like an ant group compared to a large lake, the gap is very obvious, and the volume of this group of "ant groups" is still constantly decaying and decreasing.

Because many people fell behind for various reasons in the process of escaping from the chase, and were finally wrapped in the sea of fire that caught up, and turned to ashes in the extreme heat.

Even the knights who were still on the run in front of them, their horse speed could only maintain an effect of the same speed as this sea of fire, and looking at the momentum of this sea of fire, instead of showing the slightest sign of decay, it continued to increase with the passage of time, but the war horses always need to rest, so go on......

Su Zhengyu looked at the team that kept falling behind, and watched those knights who had fallen behind die in pain and wailing in a black sea of fire, he couldn't hold back the anger in his chest anymore, and scolded something that a literati like him would not usually say: "Damn!"

Looking closely, the eyes of this usually gentle and feminine military secretary were full of blood red at this time, and he could no longer maintain his image of Sven in front of this cruel killing method of non-metal.

"Non-metallic grandchildren, fight well, just face it, hide behind the mountain pack haystack and secretly export what kind of man!" he yelled.

When he roared, all the knights nodded fiercely with blood-red eyes, because this roar was a roar that sounded the hearts of everyone present!

What kind of soldier is it to cower and hide behind the terrain and sneak attack! A soldier must have the backbone and dignity of a warrior, and knights from the empire disdain these little tricks of sneak attacks and guerrillas!

"Oh, yes," a loud laugh from a rugged man rang out in front of the running team, "since you want to fight us so much, let's just fight you head-on!"

As soon as the laughter came out, all the knights were stunned, and many people looked at a large group of cavalry in khaki armor jumping out of a mountain in front of the team in disbelief, from the previous voice, it could be judged that this should be the cavalry team in the non-metallic army, the cavalry team from the S clan under the victorious general Beitang Shuodong.

Su Zhengyu came to his senses in an instant, he frowned and looked at the cavalry team blocking the road in front of him, did they plan to use their lives to force our metal knights to stop, and then die with us in the sea of fire?

He shook his head, obviously thinking that the non-metallic army with extremely obscene fighting style would not do the stupid thing of torturing his own people, and then he glanced back, and sure enough, the black sea of fire began to show signs of stopping, and the fire began to shrink, no longer continuing to extend forward at the high speed just now.

Really...... Su Zhengyu thought, and then he looked at his team that was getting closer and closer to the non-metallic cavalry team in the charge, and shouted: "The whole army charges!"

Getting closer and closer to the cavalry team, he gradually saw clearly the strong man holding a double axe at the front of the opposing team, and listening to his voice, it was a non-metallic The possibility of the Beitang Shuodong general was not far from ten.

Although Beitang Shuodong comes from a non-metallic race that is not good at force, the S clan he is in is a fierce race, coupled with Beitang Shuodong's acquired efforts, even the top generals of the metal empire may not be able to beat him, and now the only person in the team who can face Beitang Shuodong is Wei Zilu, but the old general Wei has just been injured by the enemy's sneak attack......

Su Zhengyu understood that only by taking advantage of the momentum of the crowd's escape just now could he break through the non-metallic cavalry team in front of him.

But now it's different, General Wei, who has many years of combat experience, was injured and couldn't speak, and the combat state of the metal knights who had been on the run for a long time declined, and if you want to break through the non-metal knights, you can only take advantage of the desperate charge!

In this situation, they can't stop!

And due to the fact that the non-metal cavalry team joined the battlefield, the non-metal mages could no longer advance the terrifying group spell before, and if they advanced again, they would hurt their own people.

So on this level, this cavalry team should be the last level set for them to flee to the territory of the empire, as long as they break through here, all of them here can escape!

"This is the last obstacle! Everyone, rush me!" Su Zhengyu yelled.

"Kill!" the knights roared and roared, the sharp swords in their hands reflecting the anger on the faces of each of them, the sharp sword light cut a terrifying cold light, and the piercing tip of the sword pointed directly at the face of the group of sneering people in front of them!
