Chapter 261: Northern Desolate Tiger and Wolf Encounter (5)

Slashing and killing each other for half a quarter of an hour, with casualties on each other, is not an effective attack.

At this moment, Beihuang suddenly retreated five or six zhang away, and the patrol in front pursued and killed forward, and now it has entered the stronghold of the dark outpost, which is a little flat, and the side is a gentle slope, and the two sides have opened a battle line here.

As soon as the battle line widened, the defensive advantage of the patrols became less obvious, but the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness became more and more courageous.

Ling Yi went up to the dark sentry point and looked back at the position of the third dark post in the rear, the beacon fire had not yet been lit, and it seemed that the herald had not yet arrived.

Looking around, Ling Yi found the beacon tower, which was located above the ridge, only a dozen zhang away from him.

Breaking through the defense of the tiger and wolf rider, Ling Yi held a halberd, picking, stabbing, hooking, pecking, splitting, smashing, blocking, a series of basic halberd methods were deployed along with his strength, and for every blow, a tiger and wolf rode to death under his halberd!

The Tiger Wolf Rider also saw Ling Yi's intentions, and they naturally wouldn't let Ling Yi light the beacon fire.

No less than twenty tigers and wolves rode to urge their mounts, and they charged in the direction of Ling Yi.

Captain Yang also knew Ling Yi's intentions, knew that he was strong, and did not divide Xin Yi's side, but led the soldiers, increased the attack, and shared the pressure for Ling Yi as much as possible!

Although the cavalry that intercepted Lingyi were all warriors, under Lingyi's long halberd, none of them were the enemy, and in the blink of an eye, the tiger and wolf riders and their mounts fell under the beacon tower.

Ling Yi climbed the beacon tower and took out the fire fold and did not prepare to light it, only to find that the firewood on the beacon tower had been wet by the Northern Wilderness cavalry, and it could not be lit at all!

In a flash of inspiration, Ling Yi took out several jars of sorghum wine from the ring, and just dropped it on the firewood, and then the fire broke a little, and with a "boom", the beacon fire was finally lit by Ling Yi!

As Ling Yi lit the beacon fire, the third dark post also lit the beacon fire, Ling Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that reinforcements would arrive soon!

The blazing beacon fire illuminated the entire dark sentinel and the ridge, and Ling Yi looked down the mountain, and there were tigers and wolves rushing up from the bottom of the mountain.

Now it is conservatively estimated that there are one hundred and fifty or sixty cavalry, if there are no reinforcements, the situation on his side is still relatively critical, although he is strong, he is not afraid of these cavalry, but the patrol will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Although Ling Yi has only been in the army for a month, he already has the comradeship between soldiers, and now he is most worried that the reinforcements have not yet arrived, and his side has been wiped out!

Ling Yi was just about to go to help Captain Yang's side, when another column of tiger and wolf riders surrounded him.

Judging from the dress, the leader of the team should be the rank of captain, that is, a Qu commander, that is to say, this sneak attack team is at least a Qu strength, that is 500 soldiers, now there are only more than 100 cavalry on the mountain, and there must be a lot of them under the mountain.

This lieutenant is only the strength of a martial artist, not Ling Yi's opponent at all, just a face, Ling Yi is like he and his entourage were all killed on the ground.

Pulling out the Pu knife, Ling Yi cut off the head of the captain with a single sword, and threw his head into the battle circle where Captain Yang was fighting.

The soldiers on both sides were jumped by a sudden head, and when they looked at it, Captain Yang cheered and strengthened the attack.

The tiger wolf rode here, looked at the head on the ground, and hurriedly retreated, even his own Qu Chang was killed by the enemy, and his own strength was definitely not enough.

Besides, the two armies are fighting, the supreme commander of their own side is killed, the soldiers are doomed to panic, there is no one to command, and the chaotic battlefield can only be scattered!

Ling Yi saw the effect, his brain turned, and he picked out the officers with a halberd, first Qu Chang died in Ling Yi's hands, then the deputy Qu Chang, and then the two tun chiefs were also killed one after another, and the only one left was the captain.

As soon as these captains saw that the commander was dead, they all left their team members and fled frantically down the mountain when they saw that Ling Yi was about to kill him.

As soon as the captain ran, the already scattered soldiers, frightened the beasts, and fled down the mountain in all directions!

Captain Yang and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the enemy retreating, and many of them collapsed to the ground.

Captain Yang assigned the soldiers who could still fight to the gentle slope of the mountain, guarded the road on the mountain, and then began to count the casualties.

Because of the tacit cooperation and the strong defense of the shield bearers, only 14 people were killed on the patrol's side, including 6 recruits, and there were more wounded, and the disparity in strength between the enemy and us was quite large, with a total of 80 wounded, and 57 seriously injured and unable to participate in the battle!

Now only sixty of them were able to continue fighting, less than ten of the recruits were still standing, and the rest were seriously wounded.

The patrol has its own medics, but they can only treat simple wounds, and they are not able to treat soldiers who are seriously injured or have lost too much blood.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of pills in the Lingyi ring to stop bleeding and heal injuries, although the price is expensive, he is not stingy, and he is all handed over to the medical soldiers, so that he can do his best to treat the wounded.

With the elixir, the soldiers' injuries were also controlled, but it was a bit difficult to start fighting again.

Captain Yang found Ling Yi to discuss: "I think, for the time being, the tiger and wolf riders don't dare to attack rashly, let's stick to the dark sentinel point first, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive!"

Now Captain Yang has regarded Ling Yi as the supreme commander, and now only Ling Yi has the ability to protect everyone.

Looking at the tired soldiers and the wounded in one place, Ling Yi replied: "Just do what Captain Yang wants, I hope the reinforcements will arrive soon! Otherwise, the enemy will attack again, and we will be powerless to resist at all!"

After Ling Yi finished speaking, he took out some stored food from the ring, distributed it to the soldiers, and took out a few jars of sorghum wine, and said: "It's snowing, the weather is cold, give everyone to go to the cold, don't drink too much!"

Captain Yang took over the wine jar and began to pour wine for the soldiers, cold and snowy, there is a sip of high liquor to ward off the cold, which can improve the morale of the soldiers!

No one has eaten or drank, and their bodies are much warmer, and everyone is in good spirits.

Now that there is a beacon fire, they are very good at observing the enemy on the gentle slope of the mountain, and if there is an enemy sneaking up the mountain, they can know in advance.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the soldier standing guard and observing suddenly said: "Captain, someone has come up the mountain!"

Ling Yi and Captain Yang hurriedly came to the top of the gentle slope to check, only to see a figure hiding and touching towards the mountain.

Ling Yi's eyes were sharp, and he could see the person at a glance: "It's Zhao He!"

Waiting for Zhao He to go up to the dark sentry, he panted and said to the two: "Captain, there are still more than 400 tigers and wolves riding under the mountain, when I am on the mountain, they are assembling, and they may be about to attack the mountain, and the leader of the team is a captain, who may be a strong martial artist, what should we do?"

This scout had gone to investigate before, and now he saw that there were no enemy soldiers on the gentle slope before touching it, so he naturally didn't know how powerful Ling Yi was, in his opinion, the most powerful person on his side was only the captain of the Nine Rank Martial Artists, and he was not the enemy's opponent at all!

Listening to the scout's words, Captain Yang and Ling Yi also frowned, now they can only use about sixty troops, and they can't withstand the impact of more than four hundred people at all, not to mention that the other party is still a tiger and wolf.

Even if he is resolute, he dares to guarantee that he can protect the safety of the patrol, how can this battle be fought?

There are many military cases in history where less wins more, but in the current situation, Ling Yi does not have the courage to take these disabled soldiers to a good story of winning more with less.

Unable to make up his mind, Ling Yi could only move his gaze to Captain Yang!

Captain Yang thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "The lightly injured soldiers will take care of the seriously injured soldiers and retreat immediately, so please ask the Wu brothers to escort these brothers of mine back, I and these brothers will break off the queen for you, unless we fall, the dark post will not be lost!"

"Captain, let's not go!" The wounded struggled to their feet, and with the elixir of Lingyi, they had recovered a lot.

"Okay, brothers fight side by side, then bother Brother Wu, bring the recruits back, this is not your battlefield in the first place, go back and tell Captain Shan, I will give you an excellent assessment score!

Ling Yi looked at Captain Yang, then at the recruits, and then said, "You go back by yourself, I'll stay and help Captain Yang!"

"If you don't go, you have to die together, how can there be a reason to leave your comrades alone and run for your life alone, today we swear to die and fight with the coming soldiers!"

The recruits were also emotional, with halberds in their hands, and none of them would leave!

"This ......" looked at the recruits who looked at death as if they were home, Captain Yang's eyes were sour, and then he looked at his brother behind him, and said: "Life can't take you to victory, and death won't be three feet away from you!"

"Kill, kill, kill!" all the soldiers were in high spirits and in high spirits!

Looking at the soldiers wielding halberds or swords, Ling Yi was also full of emotion, and thought to himself: "Were grandfathers and fathers so brave and invincible?"

Since no one left, Captain Yang began to assign tasks.

After Captain Yang assigned the task, Ling Yi said to him, "Captain Yang, I have a plan!"

"Ou, what kind of strategy?" Captain Yang looked at Ling Yi expectantly.

"I'm going to go down alone and attack their supreme commander, as long as their lieutenant and other commanding officers are killed by me, then the enemy will be scattered!" Ling Yi said.

As soon as he heard this, Captain Yang immediately stopped Ling Yi: "No, there are too many enemies, and the strength is not weak, you can't ......"

"I think it can!"

Before Captain Yang could finish his words, a loud voice interrupted him.

When Ling Yi heard this, he knew that it was the eldest brother who came, and the odds of winning in his heart increased a lot, and it seemed that there was not much danger tonight!

It was Sun Ze, Hao Jun and Ah Hai who appeared in front of them!

"This ......" Captain Yang still can't make up his mind!

"Captain Yang, it's okay, with the strength of my four brothers, those minions under the mountain are not in my eyes!"

Then Hao Jun continued: "We arrived first, and there are three hundred reinforcements behind us, so you can rest assured!"

After speaking, without waiting for Captain Yang to speak, the four brothers jumped off the dark sentinel point and rushed down the gentle slope, the speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, Captain Yang and they couldn't see their figures!

"I hope you succeed, and I hope you return safely! Reinforcements will arrive soon, everyone will protect their posts according to the distribution just now, and we will wait for Wu Lingyi and them to triumph!"

All the soldiers stared at the bottom of the mountain with blazing eyes, waiting for the triumphant return of the four Lingyi!
