Chapter 19: Don't Let Us Die in Vain
can accumulate military merits, and serve as a general with a four-rank rank in the border army, I don't know how many killing battles I have to experience, and my mind has already been sharpened to be as tough as iron.
On the entire border line of Qianxia Mountain, there is only one person who can make a border army guard like Chen Gong tremble to such an extent.
This person can only be a moon-smeller.
If you can raise your head, there will be a momentum of a mountain suddenly pressing, and it must be really hearing the moon.
That is to say, at this moment, among the main army of the Great Mang, the commander of the Great Mang, who was wearing armor like a demon god, was just a person with a figure and a person who was close to the moon.
The real Wenren Cangyue has secretly marched and met with a reckless army, and here it is!
When the people in the Yunqin Dynasty just began to think that Wenren Cangyue would lead the army to attack Qianxia Mountain and cross Qianxia Mountain, Wenren Cangyue had already made all preparations to cross Qianxia Mountain!
At this moment when Chen Gong's gaze and Wen Ren's gaze met, Chen Gong figured out a lot of things, and also thought of a lot of extremely terrible consequences.
At this moment, a sword light had already flown out in front of Wen Ren Cangyue.
This sword light, like a silver meteorite burning with black and red flames, in a very short period of time when ordinary cultivators didn't have time to react, it went on a rampage, breaking the more than ten Yun Qin black armor defenders between Wenren Cangyue and Chen Gong into a cloud of broken flesh and blood, and descended in front of Chen Gong.
Chen Gong was also a powerful cultivator, he had already seen the path of this sword, and at this moment when the desperation of the middle plan and the fear of the terrible consequences of the thought took over his mind, the golden runes on the cyan long knife he pulled out suddenly shone brightly, and a colorful tiger seemed to rush out of the blade.
His sword slashed at the oncoming flying sword accurately, but he still couldn't stop it.
With a "click", the bones of his shoulders shattered first, and the flying sword pressed against his long knife and continued to move forward, pressing down on his body like a mountain.
Chen Gong flew upside down, and many cracks appeared on his body, not like he was slashed by a flying sword, but like he was slashed by hundreds of swords at the same time in an instant.
Under such an injury, it was naturally impossible for Chen Gong to be alive.
However, because this change was too sudden and the time was too short, so that when the supreme general of Chiba Pass was killed by a sword, and his body fell to the ground, all the Yun Qin defenders had not yet reacted.
When the nearly 1,000 "remnant army" suddenly all changed their momentum, and they let out a low roar like a beast, and the flying sword of Wenren Cangyue continued to move forward, and several generals behind Chen Gong also flew out with a sword, most of the defenders of Chiba Pass completely reacted, and only then did the generals know who this person was through the momentum of this flying sword dominating the world.
Countless mournful shouts rang out.
The aura of pathos, anger, and rupture filled the entire city in an instant.
"Falling Star Crossbow!"
The corners of the eyes of a Yun Qin general on the city wall of the city gate were almost cracked, and he issued a military order with all his strength.
Qianye Pass is an important checkpoint on the defense line of Qianxia Mountain, and there are several important avenues on the border line of Yunqin in the rear, the original garrison of 20,000 troops, after most of the Qianxia border army has been transferred to the Southern Expeditionary Army, although the defenders are only 8,000 at this time, but the most powerful and most intimidating in this world of the Yunqin Empire is itself the heavy armor and powerful ordnance of Yunqin.
The whole Chiba Pass, there are 100 fixed catapults, 300 crossbows in the city, and more than 70 watchtowers, all equipped with falling star crossbows.
The fixed pedestal type city guard crossbow does not have to consider the problem of subsequent movement, and there is not much restriction on its own weight, so the power of the crossbow arrows of the city guard crossbow is more powerful than the power of the crossbow arrows of the ballista, and the falling star crossbow, named to commemorate the battle of the falling star lake of Dean Zhang in the past, is the most powerful of the entire Yunqin and the crossbow guarding the city!
The catapult could not attack targets at close range, and the speed at which the boulder fell did not pose much of a threat to a cultivator of Wenren Cangyue's level, but the Falling Star Crossbow was enough to threaten the life and death of a Saint Master level cultivator.
"Dang!"
The Yun Qin general gave the order, and he also heard a sound like a giant bell ringing.
This sound, like the sudden ringing of a large bell in a temple, is composed of the sound of countless gold and iron striking and the sound of the sudden rotation of the machine.
This voice is the sound of more than seventy falling star crossbows being activated!
These days, all the Yunqin soldiers in Chiba Pass are more nervous than usual and vigilant, although they suddenly encounter such an accident, these elite Yunqin soldiers still carry out the military order as soon as possible.
Hearing such a voice, this Yun Qin general's mood was slightly relaxed, knowing that even if he was immediately killed by Wenren Cangyue with a sword at this moment, his death would already have value.
However, in the next moment, his breathing completely stopped.
Crossbow arrows with the thickness of arms flew out of the towers on the hill like iron rods punished by heaven.
However, some of them did not fall fiercely in the enemy-dense area of the city gate, but landed on other watchtowers!
"Boom!", "Boom!", "Boom!"....
The tops of the watchtowers arranged with falling star crossbows were easily smashed open by crossbow arrows with terrifying impact like pumpkins.
Countless broken stones flew in the air of Chiba Pass, and some of the heavy crossbow machine bases even fell down because of the damage and collapse of the watchtower, and for a while, the entire Chiba Border Pass was like the sky and the earth cracked.
At this moment, the Yun Qin generals who gave the order at the city gate only felt that their bodies had fallen into the endless cold abyss with the fall of these crossbows.
In such a hurried time, these Falling Star Crossbow Machines themselves did not have time to aim accurately, and they only wanted to use more than seventy Falling Star Crossbows to carry out waves of covering destruction strikes.
At this moment, only more than 20 Falling Star Crossbow Arrows smashed into the nearly 1,000-person array brought by Wenren Cangyue, and more than 20 of them even deviated to the city wall, blasting out a terrifying deep hole in the city wall. However, the destruction of the more than 20 watchtowers is extremely accurate. This can only show that those crossbow machines were already aimed at watchtowers elsewhere!
Hidden, conspiratorial, this is inevitable for both warring sides.
Wenren Cangyue himself is a figure in Yun Qin's power, and he has many forces in the dark side of Yun Qin itself... However, this is in the Qianxia Border Army, and this is not just controlling one or two crossbow machines, but controlling more than twenty crossbow machines at one time!
How much time does it take to plan and secretly exert force to be able to install so many of your own people in this pass?
When did this attack on Chiba Pass start to plan?
The Yunqin general looked at the collapsed watchtowers, first felt shocked, and then felt frightened, desperate, and helpless because of such a thought in his heart.
In the collapse of many watchtowers, some watchtowers also reacted, adjusting the crossbow machines and starting to shoot at each other.
Some of the officers who were close to the watchtowers also let out a loud shout, and rushed into the controlled watchtowers with some sergeants.
However, those crossbow machines that hastily adjusted their response to the battle could not be faster than those that had been premeditated, but in a round of mutual fire, most of the towers that still belonged to this border pass and belonged to the Yunqin Empire burst and collapsed.
In the midst of the chaos, no one could stop Wen Ren Cangyue.
Wenren Cangyue's subordinates began to disperse into small teams, making the entire Chiba Pass even more chaotic.
And when he heard the moon, he began to climb the Chiba Gate Tower step by step.
His flying sword destroyed everything that stood in his way.
He is a saint master who can defeat a thousand with one person, and he is an invincible person in the saint master rank.
So no one could stop him.
He ascended the castle pass of Chiba Pass, facing the wasteland in the direction of the Great Mang, and stood with his hands in his hands.
However, the Qiyao Demon Sword swept down from the city pass, like mowing grass, killing the Yunqin soldiers inside.
"Conspiracy is as important as force, what's the use of just marching and arranging?"
Looking at the wasteland in the twilight, Wenren Cangyue showed a sneering look on his face for the first time because of Hu Piyi, and he whispered to himself mockingly: "You don't understand and don't have time to use conspiracies against me in the Great Mang Country, your force is not as good as mine, and the command army is not as good as mine, how can you win me? From the very beginning, you betrayed the Hu family because you were not angry with the Yun Qin people's opinion of you, and you were already doomed to defeat if you wanted to compete with me as this rebellious generalissimo... Originally, people like me and others have just been crowned with the word "sacred" in their cultivation, and if they care about the opinions of ordinary people, who are far inferior to us, they are just looking for defeat. ”
......
......
Hu Piyi knelt on one knee in the dirt of the wasteland, facing Yun Qin's direction, groaning in pain.
The heavy and massive golden chariot, behind him, lost its former glory.
In the face of the encirclement and interception of Da Mang's already overwhelming military force, even he has already begun to make a move, and he can no longer be the same as before the capture of Moon City, just watching the actions of his subordinates with a cold eye.
He is the person who has the word "saint" in the mouth of the people who heard the moon and the moon, and has been operating in the Qianxia border pass for so long, one of the three major generals of the empire, and there are naturally many powerful cultivators around him, just with so many spirit priests in this chariot, it is difficult for people to imagine. So in these battles after Capture the Moon City, he was just tired, but he still didn't suffer any injuries.
In order to allow as many Yun Qin soldiers as possible to return to Qianxia Mountain, he had already done his best to force himself not to think about his defeat in Capture Moon City, but the news of Chiba Pass had already spread, and Wen Ren Cangyue had already captured Chiba Pass where they wanted to retreat.
Next, there will be more rapid marching Damang troops to reach Chiba Pass, before Yun Qin's reinforcements can arrive, will they be completely flanked back and forth?
What do you do now?
Let this army, which has been exhausted to the extreme, change its route and go around to other places? What kind of actions will the Wenren Cangyue make on the way?
With the army behind him, how many people can he take back to Qianxia Mountain in the end?
At this time, Hu Biyi only felt that everything was in Wenren Cangyue's calculations, and he only felt that it was full of countless possibilities, but none of them could be controlled by himself.
At this moment, he only felt that there was no way out.
......
"Let's go. ”
Hu Biyi stopped moaning in pain, stood up from the ground, and spoke to several generals behind him.
"General?" Several generals behind him who couldn't hide their exhaustion suddenly breathed, and their bodies suddenly stiffened.
"Otherwise, the whole army could be wiped out in this. Hu Biyi swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said: "The Wenren Cangyue in the main army of Damang is fake, and I command a part of the army, which should be able to delay until you return to Qianxia Mountain." ”
"The general can't! If you want to lead the troops to the queen of the palace, it is also to our palace!"
"It's an order. My final command as your commander-in-chief must be obeyed. Hu Piyi looked at these generals and added softly self-deprecatingly: "Or, give me some of my last dignity as a general?"
The bodies of these generals all trembled violently because of the unbearable pain.
"It's easy to die, but it's hard to admit that you're inferior to others. Under such circumstances, it is indeed difficult to endure humiliation and steal life. At this moment, an old and interfering voice came from behind Hu Piyi.
All the spirit priests wearing spirit sacrifice robes had all left the chariot and gathered behind Hu Piyi.
"General, please think about it, even if you die, you can make more people in your army return to Qianxia Mountain alive, what next?" An elderly spirit priest led by him bowed to Hu Piyi and said slowly: "Do you think that the generals who have caught up with Qianxia at the moment can be more familiar with Qianxia Mountain than you? Can you stop the breakthrough of Qianxia Mountain? Even if you can't... You are at least a saint master, and at least you will have a chance to kill Wenren Cangyue in the future. You will have a better chance than others... In that case, why can't you live?"
"We're going to break off the queen for the general. ”
The old spirit priest looked at Hu Piyi, who was trembling all over, and pleaded, "Please live, the general... Even if we live in vain, please don't let us die in vain. ”
