Chapter 462: Strategies to Protect Your Lives
Lin Haotian raised the knife with one hand, as if a large blood-red cloud swirled above his head, his scarlet eyes were about to erupt into flames, staring at the golden tiger retreating farther and farther without blinking, the armor on his face had fallen off in some places, revealing white skin, and his whole face looked black and white, hideous and terrifying.
Without the slightest warning, the raised double-headed halberd fell suddenly, and at the same time, a brilliant figure leaped out of the double-headed halberd.
The figure was all red, and at the same time emitted a dazzling red light, holding the war halberd in both hands, flying in the air, not sticking to the ground, accompanied by a ghost's howl, flying straight towards the golden tiger.
Jin Hu had never seen such a strange and terrifying beast armor change in his life, and he wanted to use the Underworld Martial Block, but he had consumed too much Underworld Qi just now, and at this time he could no longer release new Underworld Martial Arts.
Seeing the blood-red void man like a ghost and a god flying in front of him, Jin Hu had no choice but to take the gun hard.
The virtual man formed by blood, dark energy, and light and shadow flew in front of the golden tiger, and the high-held halberd slashed down, and a loud bang was heard in the ear chakra, and the golden tiger slid backwards four meters away before barely stopping. Before he could take a breath, the virtual man came again, the halberd was still condescending and slashed like a thousand equals, and the golden tiger parried again, this time, the halberd chopping was even stronger, the golden tiger couldn't bear it, the whole person flew out upside down, and after landing, he retreated six or seven steps back to stabilize his body.
But the virtual man followed him like a shadow, blinking an eye, and when he came to the front, the halberd was still desperately slashing at the golden tiger.
"Dang Chang—"
It was like the crisp sound of thunder in the clear sky. The Red Army in the distance was shocked and bloody, and his ears were bloodshot. Look at the golden tiger again, like a cannonball shooting out of the muzzle. flew upside down more than ten meters away, and smashed sideways into the crowd of the Red Army, and the screams that followed rang out.
The humanoid blood shadow slashed three times in a row, making such a powerful golden tiger unable to parry, and the whole person was shocked and flew out, and the armor of his arms was shattered, and after he landed. Spit out two mouthfuls of blood.
It was only then that the illusory figure that floated scarlet in the air vanished, as if it had never appeared. It just left a big puddle of blood on the ground.
In this situation, the surrounding Red Army was dumbfounded, and the demon warriors were also dumbfounded, including Shao Lin.
Lin Haotian was able to use this kind of stunt when he was injured. To say that Shao Lin and the others were not shocked would be absolutely deceitful.
"Plop!"
After casting the beast armor change, Lin Haotian seemed to be a rag doll that had lost his life. He fell straight to the ground, his halberd was gone, all the armor on his body was vaporized and dissipated, and he lay on the ground, his eyes closed and motionless, his bloodless face and blue lips. It makes him look like a dead man.
"My lord!" Shao Lin was the first to come to his senses and rushed forward. picked Lin Haotian up and shouted to the demon warriors beside him, "Protect your lord!
The demon underworld warriors seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and the spirit spirit shivered, and they all agreed, protecting Shao Lin's left and right, covering him to break through.
The decisive battle between Lin Haotian and the Golden Tiger can only be described as a defeat and injury, Lin Haotian couldn't take the Golden Tiger's martial arts moves, and was shocked to the point that he was covered in injuries and dying, but he was so sad and angry that the change in the beast armor he used also made the Golden Tiger unable to parry, and he was shocked to vomit blood again and again, and his vitality was greatly damaged.
As far as the injuries of the two are concerned, Lin Haotian is more serious, and Jin Hu is much lighter, at least there is no danger to life, but judging from the results of the decisive battle, in fact, both of them are the same, and they have lost the ability to continue fighting.
It's just that the battle between the two is not fair, if it weren't for Shao Lin appearing to block the flow of the Golden Tiger, if it wasn't for the demon Underworld Warrior desperately dragging the Golden Tiger, if it wasn't for seeing the tragic death of his brothers and stimulating Lin Haotian's potential, the final result would not be like this.
The Golden Tiger's withdrawal from the battlefield reduced the pressure on Shao Lin and others a lot, they took the unconscious Lin Haotian all the way to kill, and in the process of breaking through, they grabbed war horses, and after a bloody and tragic battle, Shao Lin and others finally succeeded in breaking through the Red Army camp and escaped.
For the Jin army, the battle of Anqiu County can be described as a complete defeat, the original mighty army of 400,000 was scattered, more than 30,000 remnants of the Fourth Army Corps withdrew first, and Chu Lianyu, Bi Wen and other military advisers withdrew to Dongjiang County early.
The Demon Warrior rescued Lin Haotian in the chaos of the army, caught up with the Muwu Division, and followed the remnants of the Sixth Army and the local army to retreat to Dongjiang County.
Originally, there were only more than 40,000 people, and they withdrew all the way to collect the scattered remnants of their own defeated generals, and when they retreated to the junction of Anqiu and the Dongjiang River, they also gathered more than 80,000 people.
The whole county of Anqiu has basically been recaptured by the Red Army, and there is no place for the Jin Army to stand on it, at this time, the Jin Army is faced with two choices, whether to go west to Guangxi County or continue north and go directly back to Dongjiang County.
Guangxi County has a dangerous Fengyang, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the north of Dongjiang County is Shuangfeng City, which can be withdrawn to China at any time, whether it is to withdraw to Guangxi County or Dongjiang County, it is a good choice.
Gu Liangyun and Zhongjin discussed and decided to withdraw to Dongjiang County, in any case, Guangxi County is the place of execution, retreating to it, it is difficult for the Red Army to attack it, but they don't want to go out again, and Dongjiang County is extended in all directions, it is really not good, and it can also be returned to the country, and its selectivity and flexibility are stronger than Guangxi County.
Lin Haotian's injuries took half a month to calm down, and after learning about his current situation, he sighed faintly, originally his side had captured nearly six counties in the Red Kingdom, namely Dongjiang, Pengfeng, Zhengzhong, Guangxi, The five counties of Anqiu, in addition, Lin Haotian occupied nearly half of Tianma County, and Ding Feng and Nanye on that side fought with the Red Army in Zeping County, and the form was very good, but the main force of the Central Army of the Red Army suddenly retreated, so that the good situation of the Jin Army immediately collapsed, not only was Tianma County beaten, Anqiu County was also recaptured, and now even if it retreats to the Dongjiang River, but the war is not over, and the Red Army may attack at any time.
If even Dongjiang County can't be saved, it is tantamount to shaking the foundation of the counties of Chiguo occupied by the Jin State, then this Jin-Chi battle is likely to be fruitless, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be in vain.
What made Lin Haotian quite strange was that the pursuit of the Red Army was not in a hurry, otherwise with the retreat speed of the infantry, it would not be able to outrun the cavalry corps of the Red Country.
Later, I learned that it was Gu Liangyun who kept planting small forces on the way to retreat, set up rejecting horses, blocking the red cavalry, and causing trouble, although it could not kill or injure many enemies, but it could greatly slow down the pursuit of the enemy.
After Lin Haotian heard this, he nodded secretly, Gu Liangyun has been fighting in the army for so long in the south and the north, and he has gradually become an excellent commander.
The Jin army spies also mentioned that the Red Cavalry was not active in the pursuit of the Jin Army, not because the Red Army wanted to show mercy to his subordinates, but because Wang Han advocated that he should fight steadily and steadily, and was in a hurry to achieve success, for fear of falling into the trap of the Jin Army.
Hearing this news, Lin Haotian could only smile bitterly, Wang Han was too cautious, his own side was defeated and invincible at present, what kind of trap could he set? With his current strength, he had no capital to set up an ambush.
In fact, after the defeat of the Jin army, the order to let the Red Army pursue slowly was indeed given by Wang Han, but what he said was afraid of the trap of the Jin Army was his excuse, and Wang Han had his own way of being an official.
He is now a general, if he annihilates the Jin army in one breath or drives him back to the Jin country, it will undoubtedly be a great merit, and after returning to the imperial court, how can Shi Huai reward him?
If he is promoted again, he will be promoted to the rank of general, and this is not the envy of Yin Liang? Yin Liang has been a general for more than 20 years, and his influence in the DPRK and China has long been deeply rooted, so how can he still tolerate him, a rising star who can threaten his position?
Out of this consideration, after Wang Han defeated the main force of the Jin army, he first passed a letter to Yin Liang for every step of his action, and after Yin Liang gave instructions, he would start his action.
In this way, the Red Army has made some gains on the battlefield, and its primary credit is on Yin Liang, which will not only not attract Yin Liang's jealousy, but also make Yin Liang grateful to him.
In the eyes of outsiders, Wang Han's approach is extremely stupid, he can make great contributions himself, but he pushes it to others, but this is the drawback of the Red Country system.
The power of the traditional magnates is deep-rooted, unshakable, and colludes with each other to form a relatively stable scaffold, if anyone wants to touch this scaffold, break the balance, will be attacked by many magnates, Wang Han, who was born in the aristocracy, is very clear about the stakes, and he has always been so careful to survive in the Red Kingdom court and occupy a place.
