[378] Turning defeat into victory
"Ma Nujin God, she is a faithful believer in the old ghost of Xudu, and she is the concubine of the other party, it is impossible to change her faith so easily, young master, you should not continue to have any illusions about her. Bai Wuchang, who was following behind Xiao Shizhu, said slowly.
"Give her one last chance. Xiao Shizhu, who kept striding towards the outside of the prison, said lightly.
Compared with the pleasure of killing the god of the concubine with a knife, Xiao Shizhu is even more curious, what kind of changes will a soul who sincerely worships the old ghost of Xudu, and then really see the ruthlessness of the Emperor Xudu?
"Okay. Bai Wuchang had made up his mind, and sighed softly along with the black impermanence.
The three ghosts walked in the dim and gloomy dungeon for a long time, and finally stood in the bright and gloomy light again.
The white clouds were long, and there was just a gentle breeze blowing by them, which made them feel refreshed.
After Xiao Shizhu stood still outside the prison door, he turned his head to face the east, raised his eyes to look at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and muttered with a little worry: "I don't know what the battle situation of the Gonggong Army is at this moment?"
"Young master, don't worry, naval battles are the forte of Gonggong, not to mention that we have conveyed to him all the defense subordinates of Daoshan Island in detail, and we will definitely win. Hei Wuchang took a step forward, stood side by side with Xiao Shizhu and looked at the northern sky, and slowly frowned: "The minister is more worried about another strange army; ”。
"So the ghost I sent out to command the army is Lord Xia Xing. Xiao Shizhu didn't care about this, but smiled lightly and said in an affirmative tone: "Lord Xia Xingxia has always been a careful and steady ghost, and she also pays attention to winning in battle; Moreover, this is just a demonstration against the old ghost of Xudu, and it is not an attack, so there is no danger and too many variables. ”。
"Then why are you so worried about co-working, young master?" Bai Wuchang also stepped forward and asked curiously.
"Because although this ghost is good at naval warfare, he doesn't know how to use people to observe people. Xiao Shizhu replied slowly, turned his head to look at the east again, and frowned slightly......
In Daoshan City, where the screams continued, there was a lot of noise. After calming down, the Nine Ghost Army revealed their fierce gazes one after another. Although they are all Sanmiao warriors, they have learned the Mandarin Duck Formation of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, so they quickly formed a Mandarin Duck Formation in the high-pitched and passionate charging horn, shuttling back and forth with the streets and alleys of the city, chasing and intercepting the Xudu Army that can be seen everywhere.
The enemy army in the city was overwhelmed, and under the frequent confrontation with them, the Nine Shadows Army, which was calmed down, was killed and wounded heavily. Even so, the Nine Shadows Army still did not have the slightest mercy, but they all became more and more brave the more they fought, killing the enemy soldiers in the city screaming again and again.
However, in half an hour, there were heavy casualties, and some wanted to retreat to the tunnel, but in a panic, they inadvertently pushed open the doors of the small courtyards of those houses that had not yet opened the mechanism, and were instantly taken away by the mechanism they had set up.
The city of Daoshan was miserable, and the outside of the city was also filled with blood, and the shouts and screams that went straight to the sky shook the heavens and the earth.
In the dust and smoke, the cavalry fought fiercely, and rushed forward with fierce swords on their faces, chasing and killing the Xudu army, which was already frightened and had no resistance. Although the Rock Fire Bear cavalry was only a few thousand, both the riders and the mounts were extremely fierce, and they repeatedly rushed and killed the Xudu army outside the city and ran in all directions.
In less than half an hour, tens of thousands of Xudu soldiers were in different places under the roar of the rock fire bear. And the hundreds of flint cannons they brought were also blown up one by one by the Nine Ghost Army with the * shells of the flint cannons.
The most conspicuous thing was the golden eagle that approached the enemy's main general, and after he slashed several enemy generals' guards to death with his sword like the wind, he jumped up from the rock fire bear and pounced on the enemy general who turned and fled.
When he stepped forward, the golden eagle changed the long knife to his left hand, and his right hand suddenly stretched forward to strangle the neck of the enemy general, and pressed the enemy general to the ground with the force of the pounce.
Without hesitation, the wide-eyed golden eagle held the long knife in his hand and stabbed it into the back of the screaming enemy general, and the tip of the knife broke through the flesh and stabbed straight to the heart.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the Lord raised his head, which was blue and swollen after rubbing intimately against the ground, and after letting out a muffled snort, he closed his eyes and lowered his head, and did not wake up again.
The enemy soldiers who were about to pounce on the golden eagle and hack it to death suddenly suffocated and froze in place. The ferocity and bravery of the golden eagle made him afraid to appreciate it in his eyes.
Just after a meal, the golden eagle angrily drew his knife, and after a spin of the long knife in his hand, it brought a burst of rushing blood mist, and then cut off the head of the enemy general.
In a flash of cold light, the enemy general was in a different place, and he stood up and pointed the long knife in his hand at the golden eagle of the enemy around him, stared at his bloodshot eyes, and with the long knife in his hand slowly turning, he looked around at the enemy soldiers who surrounded him with the tip of the knife, and scolded angrily: "The enemy general has been beheaded by me, who is not afraid of death, step forward, see if your neck is hard or my knife is hard?"
The rebuke rang like a bell, reverberating through the heavens and the earth, and soon reached the ears of every enemy soldier around.
The enemy soldiers surrounding him all looked timid, and invariably took a small step back, and the weapons in their hands tightened.
The golden eagle, covered in ghost blood and covered in blood, had his eyebrows upside down, his face was fierce and fierce, and his round red eyes were full of murderous aura, like a demon who had escaped from hell, and the cold light emitted by the long knife in his hand made the enemy soldiers around him tremble.
"Come on!" the smiling golden eagle roared angrily, and jumped forward without hesitation, and the long knife in his hand swung as fast as thunder in a flash of cold light, bringing up a burst of blood mist and easily beheading the enemy soldiers in front of him; But in an instant, the necks of the three or five enemy soldiers around him were cold, and blood immediately burst out.
At the same time, a crisp and loud scream came from across the valley.
Before the enemy troops outside the city could escape the prestige, there were already "bang-bang" gunshots in the sky.
Under the gunfire one after another, dozens of enemy soldiers fell to the ground backwards, and there was a finger-thick blood hole in the center of their eyebrows. Feathered people and skullfolk appeared one after another over the basin, diving into each other in pairs, wielding swords or firearms to kill the enemy troops in the basin.
It was followed by a steady stream of infantry from the Nine Shadows Army that rushed out of the valley. As soon as they came out of the valley, they immediately formed a number of mandarin duck formations, rushed into the battlefield and began to kill.
At the front of the line was a dark-skinned human soul, the blade in his hand was sharp in front and wide in the back, and the long-handled bent knife had been rotating since it was unsheathed.
Under the cold light, this ghost's body rushed into the enemy formation, and the knife in his hand flew around the battlefield during the rampage, and the cold light on the blade of the knife was dazzling, bringing gusts of wind to howl.
This fast and accurate ghost is none other than Lin Cong, and once all the enemy soldiers who dare to stand in the way are approached by him, they can't escape the fate of the breastplate shattered under his sword sweep, and flew out with a scream, and fell to the ground in convulsions.
In the pungent and bloody wind, the front placket of the flying fish suit on his body, which was divided into two sides, had been dyed bright red by ghost blood in less than a moment.
In terms of bravery and ferocity, even the red-eyed golden eagle is not as good as it.
Under the influence of these two ghosts, the well-equipped Nine Shadows Army was greatly boosted and became more and more courageous, thousands of Flame Bear cavalry rushed back and forth outside the city like lightning, and the Flying Sky Army also swooped down again and again, and the fire in their hands hit hundreds of shots, and the main attack was to hold the dead enemy soldiers and run away, and the mandarin duck array composed of infantry in the city also suppressed the enemy army so that there was no chance to fight back.
The tide of the battle turned again, and the large number of Xudu troops became smaller and smaller. The rest had no resistance at all, and all they did was to flee in all directions.
The sounds of fighting and screaming echoed over the basin and continued until the sun went down. Gunsmoke was rising, and inside and outside the tattered Sword Mountain City, there were corpses of demon souls everywhere, as well as blood-red powder and tattered armor left behind after the death of human souls.
Most of the enemy troops died in this battle, and only a few were captured.
But the victory of the Nine Shadows Army was also more than half of the casualties, just a few hours later, the original majestic army of 100,000, only less than 50,000 sergeants remained, and all of them were painted.
This battle was even more humiliating than the crushing victory at Chongshanguan this year.
Under the red sunset, the tattered banners of the Nine Shadows Army were waving in the wind, and after the golden eagle standing outside the city looked around at the tragic situation and slowly retracted its sword, its eyes fell on the faces of the dozens of soldiers who were bandaging the wounds of the ghost doctor not far away, and they couldn't help but sigh.
If it weren't for the fact that he led people to rush and fight fiercely, and struggled to behead the enemy general in the midst of ten thousand troops, and Lin Cong led the army to support in time, the 100,000 Nine Youjun would have been reimbursed here today.
But although in the end it was a victory, the golden eagle still did not have the slightest excitement and joy, and only a faint sadness lingered in his heart.
He walked forward slowly, walked to the tattered city gate and stood still, stared at the curled up hole sitting alone next to the wall with angry eyes, and after a long pause, he scolded in a deep voice: "You are a coward who talks on paper, are you worthy of those three Miao warriors who died in battle?"
After the first battle, the Sanmiao warriors have isolated Dongmeng. Even though he is the son of a hammer, the martial Sanmiao ghost looks down on him the most.
It would be fine if he was just commanding snobbery, but when the army was in trouble, he chose to tremble and be stunned, which was what made the surviving Sanmiao ghosts disgust him the most.
And his silent attitude at this time made the golden eagle even more angry. The two thick eyebrows on his face were upside down, and his right hand was clenched into a fist.
"Forget the Golden Eagle General. Lin Cong, who walked over quickly, hurriedly made a move and grabbed the right fist that the golden eagle had raised against Dong Meng: "Even if you kill him first, he won't be able to save the dead soldiers; ”。
After thinking about it for a while, the anger in the golden eagle's chest gradually subsided a little, and after calming down, he turned around with a hum, and after a moment of silence, he told the whole battle process to the fungus man sitting on Lin Cong's shoulder in a flat tone. There is not a hint of exaggeration, nor a hint of concealment.
At the end, the golden eagle paused, and after a little sadness in his eyes, he added to the fungus: "Although it is best for our army to turn defeat into victory, the last general, as a staff general, failed to prevent the commander from carrying out the wrong actions in time, and the last general is willing to be punished together with Dongmeng." ”。
"Okay. The fungus man nodded, slowly closed his eyes, and after concentrating, passed the words of the golden eagle to the fungus people on Shuoyue Island word for word.
After a long time, this fungus slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Lin Cong and said, "Lord Lin, the lord asked you if what the Golden Eagle General said is true?"
