I have to say that Chu Jiangpo's hand is not only vicious, but also quite powerful. Ordinary people are simply incomprehensible to this trick. Because of the steep terrain and harsh environment of Qingfeng Ridge, there are many poisonous insects and beasts growing in it, and it is definitely unlucky for ordinary soldiers to enter it, so most people will regard it as a dangerous place and will not consider that someone can pass through it.

Even if there are thoughtful people who take this into account and send strong people into it, if the number is too small, the role it can play is very small, and there are still many defensive loopholes that can be drilled by the poisonous scorpion soldiers sent by Chu Jiangpo.

It's just that Chu Jiangpo's hand is useless when he encounters Xia Fan, because the soul soldiers can travel through the Qingfeng Ridge, so they can wander around. Even if only one person discovers the scorpion warrior, it is equivalent to the fact that the scorpion warrior will completely lose the concealment of its actions and the suddenness of its attacks.

"Dudu, send another 30,000 soul bodies into Qingfeng Ridge, on the one hand, to protect the flanks of the army, and on the other hand, to strangle these soldiers riding scorpions. When Xia Fan heard that the poisonous scorpion soldiers were infested, he immediately gave countermeasures, and at the same time told Yu Kong Yue to remind her to be careful.

"I guess that our side rushed all the way to kill, and the movement was so big, even if the guards of White Rock City were dull, they must already know about it. Now it seems that this person is not sluggish, but has some means. Yu Kong Yue said with a smile.

The reaction was dissatisfied, and unexpectedly positive, but sometimes arrogance and self-confidence were just one word. This battle is very important for us, open up the Qingfeng Trail, take White Rock City, and since then we have a foothold in the Blue Jade Country, although this place is not big, but it is stuck in a key road connecting the east and west, which is very beneficial to our next plan. ”

"Hmm. Yu Kongyue nodded, and then suddenly changed the topic: "You spent so much effort before, and you were selling favors and being a trap, why did you let the barbarians go so easily?"

"Of course I want to tie them up to our chariots, and if I just let them help in a battle, it won't be worthless. Besides, that old guy of the barbarian king is very poisonous, and now the world is in chaos. Even my cheap father, who was known to the whole world and was so domineering, died before he left the school, so how can we not prepare in advance. The barbarian king and the barbarian don't look at the number of people, but the role and value are huge. ”

"From the moment I asked them to help in the war, my purpose was to drag them into the water and completely pull them into our chariots. But...... But you can't use it, and you can't show it too obviously, otherwise it won't be good to arouse their disgust. Xia Fan said with a smile: "I let them go, because there is really no reason to keep them, if I blindly use the so-called favor to restrain them, it will make them resist me, so I simply let them go, anyway, they helped us fight before, and they must have also registered on Lan Haolin's side, it is not so easy for the barbarians to stay out of the matter again, as long as they are patient and wait, they will come back to us." Huh......"

Suddenly, Xia Fan let out an exclamation, and then said with a smile: "It seems that my luck is good, this time I don't have to wait too long, the barbarians may come back to us soon." ”

"What do you mean?" asked Yukong Yue curiously.

"You'll know when you look back. Xia Fan smiled mysteriously and sold Guanzi.

Although Xia Fan reminded the Sky Moon to guard against the sudden attack of the scorpion warriors, it was not the soldiers who marched on the Qingfeng Path who initially confronted the poisonous scorpion warriors, but the soul soldiers who were responsible for serving as a guard in the Qingfeng Ridge.

In the sound ......of the explosion, the air waves rolled, swept around, directly destroying the wild grass and weeds within a radius of 50 zhang, and even blowing up countless gravel.

The poisonous scorpion warriors who had suffered a sneak attack by the soul soldiers, and the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion riding under their crotches were suddenly shocked and retreated. However, the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion is quite fierce, and after suffering a loss, the fierce light in the nine eyes flickered, and the scorpion tail slammed towards the soul soldier.

The nine-eyed poisonous scorpion's tail needle is highly poisonous, and it is definitely a bloody throat, but it is useless against the soul soldiers who don't even have a physical body at all. The soul soldier obviously knew this, so when he saw the scorpion tail piercing, he didn't even hide at all, he directly met it, fought hard, and then grabbed the scorpion tail, and then raised the knife in his hand, and cut it off with a click.

For the nine-eyed scorpion, although the scorpion tail may not be fatal, it is definitely not a comfortable thing to be cut off like this. This made the nine-eyed scorpion, which was already furious because of the previous loss, even more angry, so that the scorpion warrior riding on its back was almost unable to control him.

The soul soldier didn't bother to pay attention to what the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion felt, and the blow worked, of course, it was to take advantage of the victory to pursue. It's just that this time he is no longer attacking the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion, but is busy controlling the poisonous scorpion soldiers who are about to go berserk.

Although these poisonous scorpion soldiers have a fierce reputation, most of the fierce names come from the nine-eyed poisonous scorpions under their crotch, and the strength of the soldiers themselves is not particularly strong, and it is only the qi induction period, at most it is only the foundation building period. The reason why this is the case is also because unless the average scorpion warrior is super strong, it is simply difficult to subdue the nine-eyed scorpion by normal methods, and it is naturally impossible to ride on it. In order to be able to use the nine-eyed scorpion as a mount, an evil method was adopted when training the scorpion soldiers.

That is, the scorpion warriors will practice a kind of exercise and take a pill, so that their own essence and blood will produce a very unique taste, and the nine-eyed scorpion just likes this taste the most. In this way, using its own essence and blood as bait to raise poisonous scorpion warriors can temporarily pacify it and ride on it to fight.

It's just that the cost of doing so is quite large, basically every poisonous scorpion soldier because the cultivation method is very evil and constantly will extract essence blood to raise nine-eyed poisonous scorpions, so even if life is okay in a short period of time, it will continue to damage its own foundation, so it will become very difficult to improve its own strength, which also leads to the vast majority of poisonous scorpion soldiers Although they are famous, their own strength is not very strong. It is no exaggeration to say that the reason why the name of the scorpion warrior puts the scorpion in front is also because most of the time the battle is dominated by the nine-eyed scorpion, and the soldier itself is just an auxiliary role.

Of course, there are no absolutes. If someone is strong enough to subdue the nine-eyed scorpion, then naturally there is no such problem. For example, Chu Jiangpo and Feng Qingshan are like this.

Because the scorpion warrior's own strength is not strong, so now in the face of the attack of the soul soldier, all he can do is to wave the scimitar in his hand to block, and the rest is to urge the nine-eyed scorpion under his crotch to dodge.

It's just that the attack of the soul soldier can be dodged casually. You must know that the strength of soul soldiers may not be strong, but every one of them is a strongman who has fought on the battlefield I don't know how many times in his life, and he can remain alive after death, and being finally collected by Xia Fan is enough to show how powerful they were in life.

Therefore, when he attacked the poisonous scorpion warrior with all his strength, it really made the latter unable to dodge, and he was directly pierced through the heart by a sword.

......When the blood spurted wildly, the soul soldier did not retreat, but rushed forward again, waving the long sword in his hand and slashing at the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion.

The sword light flashed, and the head of the nine-eyed poisonous scorpion was directly cut off. Although it was not dead for a while, and its headless body was still moving wildly, it was no longer able to do anything about the soul soldiers.

It seems that it is easy for the soul soldiers to kill these nine-eyed poisonous scorpions, but in fact, it is not. Not to mention, if it weren't for the fact that the soul soldier wasn't afraid of the poison on the poisonous scorpion needle, he wouldn't have been able to cut off its scorpion tail so easily, and then complete the subsequent kill. In addition, the most powerful thing about the nine-eyed scorpion is not the poison on the scorpion's tail, but the natal power it has, but this nine-eyed scorpion was cut off by a sword before it could be used, and it couldn't be used if it wanted to.

"Bang Bang ......"

The sound of explosions came from the Qingfeng Ridge, where the mountain breeze whistled from time to time, and then you could see grass and trees falling to the ground, and smoke and dust rolling out. It can be seen how fierce the battle between the soul body and the poisonous scorpion warrior is.

In fact, the battle between the two sides has its own wins and losses, and not all of them are won by the soul body, but because the soul body is not afraid of the poisonous scorpion needle, it takes a lot of advantage, so in general, it still wins more with the soul body.

Because a large number of soul bodies entered Qingfeng Ridge and constantly blocked the poisonous scorpion soldiers, Chu Jiangpo's original plan to harass and delay the marching speed of Xia Fan's army through continuous attacks was completely ruined. Because most of the poisonous scorpion soldiers have been discovered by the soul body and blocked in the Qingfeng Ridge, they are very capable of entering the Qingfeng Path.

Even if there is an occasional fish or two that slip through the net, when it rushes out, what awaits him is definitely not the panicked shouts and frightened expressions of the soldiers who have been attacked, but a strong and fierce counterattack, which is dominated by the attack of the God Destroyer Bow and the Crossbow.

After Xia Fan defeated the army led by Fang Sen before, although he only collected 30,000 people from the remnants, and threw the rest to Lu Chuan, Xia Fan intercepted sixty or seventy percent of the captured baggage, especially the magic crossbow, God Destroying Bow and other things, he almost all came to a pot.

The reason why he did this was also because Xia Fan knew very well that his men were not many, so if he wanted to face three or four hundred thousand enemies without being too inferior, in addition to making dangerous moves and playing some intrigues, he could only make up for it through powerful weapons, magic weapons, talismans and so on. At this time, it is obviously unrealistic to want a large number of supplementary magic weapons and talismans, so the best and most direct thing is, of course, the high-quality and powerful weapons, among which the magic crossbow and the god-destroying bow are the first choice.

In addition to being able to make up for the lack of numbers, Xia Fan also wanted to use the ultra-long range of the crossbow and the god-destroying bow to try to increase the combat distance between the enemy and us. Battles that can be resolved from a distance are fought as close as possible. This can reduce the casualties of your own side during the fight.

Speaking of which, it was because the number of soldiers and horses in Xia Fan's hands was too small, but after all, he admired the creed that soldiers were not too many but fine, so he became what he is now.
