Chapter 284: War (12)
Chapter 284
"Whoosh" a few arrows, and several soldiers who tried to flee were immediately shot dead by the generals on the stage.
"Those who flee from the battle, there is no mercy!" the merciless order sounded, and the steps of the soldiers who retreated immediately slowed down, and began to walk towards the front with some trembling.
Behind the "roar", a large area of cursed dead bodies was like a black tide, about to rush to the outside of the fence, the red eyes flashed with excitement, looking at the fresh lives in the fence, as if seeing a piece of food.
At this moment, a long flute sound suddenly sounded, coming from afar, the sound was peculiar, and it seemed to contain a wonderful magic.
And the strange thing is that at the moment when the flute sounded, these cursed dead bodies suddenly stopped and began to slowly retreat backwards.
"It's that person!" Tianyu's side, a general suddenly pointed to a black dot on the horizon that seemed to be connected with the sky, and said loudly.
Tianyu looked over, this distance was not out of his sight, and he saw that it was indeed a person with a black robe covering his whole body, riding on a war horse and blowing a flute.
"Lord Tianyu, look!" Suddenly, another general pointed to the ground and shouted in a trembling voice.
Tianyu turned his eyes and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, only to see that the cursed dead body that he had just shot through and nailed to the ground seemed to suddenly come to life at this moment, and slowly pulled out a thick arrow from his body, and then climbed up, retreating backwards with the other cursed dead bodies.
"What a horrible curse of the dead!" someone whispered.
"These are simply undead monsters, isn't there a way to kill them?"
"What the hell is the staff army doing, and this kind of thing can be created?"
Listening to the voices of the generals around him, Tianyu suddenly said to a general beside him, "Open the door of the barracks, I want to go out to meet the staff army for a while!"
"Lord Tianyu, this is too dangerous, what if those cursed dead bodies suddenly attack you?" Beside him, the killing god finally came to his senses and said to Tianyu.
"Do you think I'm as useless as you?" Tianyu glanced at the Killing God coldly and said.
Choked back by this sentence, the killing god immediately closed his mouth, knowing that his behavior today had greatly annoyed this adult who valued the general's battlefield performance very much.
The people around didn't dare to say anything more, and the two guards immediately followed, and then the gate of the barracks slowly opened, and the three war horses rushed out of the camp and galloped in the direction of the sound of the flute.
The endless cursed corpse troops slowly retreated, and above the dunes, only the master and the staff army behind him remained. Watching the three flying horses gallop towards him, an intriguing smile appeared on the face of the staff army.
"Is it here to ask the master?" the master frowned and whispered to the staff.
The staff army sneered, "If this is the case, then the Longshan Kingdom is really too low-level, after seeing the strength of my cursed corpse troops, I think all they can do is to form a more friendly alliance with us." ”
Tianyu slowly slowed down when he was still a hundred paces away from the staff army, and then gestured to the two people behind him, signaling that they didn't have to continue to follow, and he slowly walked towards the staff army alone.
"I have long admired the reputation of Lord Tianyu, and I am fortunate to see you today. Seeing that the person who appeared in front of him at this moment was not the first commander of Longshan Country, the killing god, the staff army instantly guessed that this might be the Tianyu Lord who had never met before, but was famous, at the moment, although he was arrogant in his heart, he still politely said hello.
"I don't dare to bear it for a long time, but my staff, the combat power of your troops is really amazing. My army has almost lost the energy to resist under their hands. Tianyu said in a flat tone.
"Hahaha, it was really not my intention to accidentally injure the soldiers of Longshan Country today, but it is really difficult to control these soldiers once they are stimulated by blood, please forgive me. However, if you want to talk about amazing standing strength, in fact, their true combat power has not yet been shown, and it is really too much for you to say this at this moment, Lord Tianyu. ”
"Really, I'm really looking forward to the day when I'll see the true strength of your troops. Lord Ling Zun is in good health, since the last time I met him in the imperial capital of your country, but I can't forget it, I wonder if you can help me introduce it?"
The staff army smiled at Tianyu knowingly, "Of course you can." ”
After running frantically for about a quarter of an hour or so, finally, everyone was too tired to stand it, and one by one they finally stopped, even if they were killed, they didn't want to go any further.
Zhao Gongming, Fang Tian, and Wan Tingjun saw that the soldiers were so tired, and they also reined in the reins of their horses helplessly, and then stopped.
"I don't think they'll catch up for a while, so we can rest here for a while. Fang Tian looked behind him, there was not the slightest sign of yellow sand rolling, it should be that there were no pursuers approaching, and he was facing everyone at the moment.
Zhao Gongming sat on the ground with some frustration, saying no, his expression was full of regret and pain, today's blow was so huge, even this general, who had already had an iron will, could not accept the price of losing 50,000 soldiers at once.
After Wan Tingjun asked Fang Tian about the situation, he was also a little silent, but fortunately, he appeared in the army Zhao Wanglang, monkeys, stones and pillars, these old friends were unharmed, as for Liu Shao, according to Fang Tian, he also returned to the imperial capital with the three officials because of some things, so he was not affected by this incident.
"What should we do now? The army does not have enough food and water, it is difficult to support the fast-paced march, and if we do not find a place to replenish in time, I think the army may not survive these days. Wan Tingjun said helplessly.
Fang Tian was also silent, now this situation was really chaotic, and he really couldn't think of any good way to do it all of a sudden.
After a short silence, Zhao Gongming suddenly said, "Let's go back to Huaguang City!"
"Huihua Light City?"
"The walls of Huaguang City are strong, and there are many materials in reserve, if we can go back, we can indeed grasp some advantages, but with the current situation of the army, I think it will take us four days to rush back to Huaguang City at the earliest, and without water and food, I am afraid it will be difficult. Fang Tian said in a low voice.
"If there is not enough food and water, we will collect it along the way, didn't we see a lot of villages along the way? Shouldn't they make some contributions to us at this time?" Zhao Gongming suddenly said coldly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt a chill, it seemed that the loss of 50,000 troops really made this general a little on the verge of madness, and he even said such words.
"It's ridiculous, we have an army of 50,000, and if we rely on collecting food from the surrounding villages, then those ordinary people will not live. What's the difference between you and killing them?" On the side, among the Immortal Sects, Elder Liu Yi couldn't help but say a little.
The elders of the Immortal Sect are outside the world and are not bound by the magnates of the human world, so they don't have any scruples at the moment, so they say this kind of thing.
"What did you say?" Zhao Gongming suddenly stood up, the long sword in his hand shaking with a cold light.
"I said, what's the difference between you doing this and killing them? Haven't you heard clearly, butcher?" Elder Liu Yi also stood up and said loudly.
The surrounding soldiers showed their weapons at the same time, aiming at Liu Yi, who stood up and looked excited, as long as he made the slightest move, he would be killed, and the disciples of the Immortal Sect did not show weakness, they all drew their long swords and waited beside Liu Yi, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Wan Tingjun felt his head big for a while, and he couldn't imagine that this Elder Liu Yi, who usually looked steady, would be so excited at this moment, causing this situation.
Zhao Gongming's anger was completely aroused at this moment, the long sword was buzzing, and his whole body trembled as if he would make a move in the next moment, and Liu Yi also had the bruises on his face exposed, and he refused to show weakness at all. The surrounding soldiers and Immortal Sect disciples were also at the tip of the needle, and the killing intent was cold.
Wan Tingjun finally couldn't help it, and when he stood up and was about to say something, suddenly an excited shout came from a distance
"Deputy Head Wan Tingjun, we're here!" Hearing this familiar voice, Wan Tingjun's heart suddenly became happy, the reinforcements from the Immortal Sect had finally arrived, and they had enough supplies on them to support the consumption of the army for four days.
At that moment, Wan Tingjun hurriedly said to the two people facing each other in the field, "The problem of food and water can be solved." Reinforcements from the Immortal Sect have arrived, and they have enough supplies on them. If you continue to confront each other like this, it will only be a waste of time, and it will not help. ”
While speaking, the head of the Immortal Sect had already led some people to rush here, and saw the twenty Immortal Sect disciples in the field surrounded by a large army, his face was gloomy at the moment, and he asked Wan Tingjun, "Deputy Leader, what is the situation?"
Wan Tingjun's heart was cold, he didn't know if the people in the Immortal Sect despised these powerful people like Liu Yi, but at this moment, the head of the sect was not called 'Wan Tingjun' but 'Deputy Head', which was obviously reminding him of his identity.
Looking helplessly at the two people in the field who still refused to stop, Wan Tingjun said to the master, "Qi Qi master, because of the problem of food and water, General Zhao Gongming and Elder Liu Yi had some minor misunderstandings, and it should be fine now." ”
"Hmph, I didn't say it was okay. This kind of person who offends his superiors and does not understand humility, I must teach him a good lesson today. Zhao Gongming refused to show weakness at all, and was a little aggressive.
When Liu Yi saw the head of the sect coming, he originally had some intention of quitting, but when Zhao Gongming said this, he was also angry at the moment, and his arrogance was aroused, and he shook the long sword in his hand and shouted, "Who are your subordinates, we are the people of the Immortal Sect, when will I be under your control?
Hearing these words, Wan Tingjun knew that today was over, and the situation could not be solved if the two of them did not fight.
"Hahaha, Elder Liu, since someone wants to test your skills, why don't you show a small hand?" The head of the sect beckoned to the disciples of the Immortal Sect behind him, and suddenly, countless disciples of the Immortal Sect rushed forward and surrounded those soldiers, and at the same time, the head of the sect looked at Zhao Gongming, and said a little arrogantly.
When Liu Yi heard the head say this, he also let go of everything at the moment, and said to Zhao Gongming, "Dare to fight with me to the side, I'm afraid it will hurt the innocent here." ”
"Why don't you dare?" After speaking, Zhao Gongming's figure shot into the distance, and Liu Yi also glanced at the master, and then followed closely.
As soon as the two left, the confrontation in the field was a little meaningless, Wan Tingjun hurriedly shouted to the soldiers who were still holding their swords, "Everyone is a united front, put down the sword, don't make a saber rattling." ”
On the one hand, Fang Tian also took this opportunity to start a round and commanded the army to rest on the spot.
After all, Wan Tingjun led these armies to storm the military camp of Longshan Country, so he still had some prestige, and at this moment, with Fang Tian, the army immediately put down its arms and began to rest on the spot.
The head also waved his hand at the disciples of the Immortal Sect, everyone left here a little distance and found another place to rest, while Wan Tingjun followed the head to another place and began to talk to the head in detail about the things that had happened these days.
After a long time, after listening to Wan Tingjun's narration, the head slowly exhaled and sighed, "I didn't expect that we were still a step too late, since the so-called cursed corpse army has appeared, what should we do now?"
Wan Tingjun said to the master, "I see that the staff army has stabbed the sky upside down, it is estimated that the emperor is going to make a big move in the past two days, and our immortal faction is also taking advantage of this opportunity to establish its prestige." ”
"You mean to help the current monarch defeat the staff family?"
"Yes, so that we can have a good exhibition environment in this country. ”
"But I don't think the monarch's forces like we're welcome very much."
Wan Tingjun looked a little helplessly in the direction where Liu Yi and Zhao Gongming went, where the yellow sand was rolling, countless primordial Guli were flying in all directions, and strong fluctuations were transmitted, and two figures could be vaguely seen in the yellow sand in the sky were colliding fiercely.
"Elder Liu Yi, I'm not worried, I'm afraid that Zhao Gongming will be annoyed and angry if he is an enemy, and it will be very unfavorable to the situation at that time. Wan Tingjun was a little worried.
The head laughed, and Wan Tingjun looked at him with some puzzlement. The head smiled and said to Wan Tingjun, "If Elder Liu Yi can be that kid's grandfather at his age, how can he not know the severity, just look at it, even if Zhao Gongming is defeated, Elder Liu Yi will let him lose convincingly." ”
Sure enough, a moment later, the yellow sand where Liu Yi and Zhao Gongming fought gradually calmed down, and the two suddenly walked out of there with a smile.
As soon as they saw the figures of the two of them, Wan Tingjun, Fang Tian and many soldiers, the disciples immediately stood up, but seeing the two of them so close at the moment, they couldn't help but look at each other a little.
When the two of them got closer, Zhao Gongming said to everyone, "The elders of the Immortal Sect are really grateful to be able to come to help us at this time, in the future, the disciples of the Immortal Sect will be in a good position, and they will not be governed by the military camp system, and no one shall provoke the Immortal Sect, and those who violate the military order will be dealt with!"
"Yes," all the generals answered.
